“What an amazing experience! My puppy was so happy and came home almost sad to leave! The daily updates and pictures put my mind to ease! Thank you, Diane for treating him like family!”
“Our pup stayed with Grant and his “pack” for 12 nights. (The longest time he’s been away from home) Grant kept us updated during our trip with multiple text, pictures and videos. Sox had a great time running around and playing with the other dogs. We got him back very well behaved and tired which is always the goal for my high energy pup. We will definitely be using Grant again for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”
“The best ever! Kind, communicative, and so so accommodating. We left our pup for two weeks and several stays with Kelsey leading up to the vacation. Our pup seemed to have had a vacation too of nonstop plays and loving. It made our vacation so much enjoyable knowing our pup is so loved. Thank you again!”
“Samantha was fantastic with our babies. This is not your typical boarding place. She described it as summer camp for doggies and it is accurate. The area she has set up for the dogs is well thought-out, clean, and meets all of their needs and more. She took lots of pictures (different subject but her pictures were amazing), kept me updated throughout the day and let me know when my dogs were tucked in for the night. My city dogs got to meet horses, goats, and pigs and I think they had a great time, because they slept for so long when they got home. Im looking forward to their next summer camp with Samantha!”
“Thank you Lisa. Excellent dog care! She took great care of our dog Aspen for one night—very friendly, reliable, and attentive. They sent us picture, updates and communicated timely and well throughout. We’ll definitely be using her again and look forward to be repeat customers!”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“Linda was really great with our senior dog. She really watched out for Lizzie and cared for her beyond what I could have imagined. Lizzie began having severe health issues (preexisting health problems that just got worse) and Linda made sure to let me know what was going on. Lizzie refused to eat or drink anything, and appeared to be in respiratory distress. Eventually Linda had to take our dog to an emergency vet. I had to fly back from Utah and couldn’t be there until late at night, so Linda stayed with Lizzie as long as she could and sent me photos and updates on Lizzie’s status the entire time. I cannot express my gratitude for Linda’s care and compassion for Lizzie. Wonderful dog sitter, so kind and truly a dog lover. I cannot recommend Linda enough!”
“We had never used Rover.com before as family has always watched our dog Curly. Amanda took such great care of Curly while he was there. Amanda and her family treated Curly as if he was one of her own dogs. She sent pics and updates to me throughout Curly's stay to let me know how he was doing. We will definitely be using her services again.”
“First overnight for our puppy with Ruby and her family! As with the last time Cusco spent time at Ruby’s home, he got so much love, attention, and playtime. I received many photos and videos while we were away, always making us feel comfortable and giving updates! I know Cusco is already looking forward to going back :) thank you, Ruby!”
“This was the first time our little dog was going to stay overnight in a new place. Pam was helpful and communicated how he was doing as the week progressed. She was so kind! Our dog was healthy and happy when we picked him up.”
About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.
“Thank you Joe and Kristine for caring for Luna during our long trip away! I appreciated all the pictures sent and knew she was in good hands. I also appreciated your flexibility and understanding after my overlooking the extra time needed. Luna seemed so happy when I picked her up and I knew she had a wonderful time.”
“Jena and family provided very loving and attentive care of our dog Harper. They took her for walks, played with her, loved on her and were very understanding and persistent in encouraging Harper to eat (she is more into people and play than food). Jena provided photos often showing Harper’s time with them which we enjoyed and appreciated. I highly recommend Jena and would be happy to use her services again.”
“Nicole & Jarrod are great people. I know that because my pup is always happy to see them and Charlie. I enjoy the pic's and the report card I know my dog is in good hands.”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
“Sandy has watched my Charm 2 times and she won’t be able to get rid of us now! Sandy is so caring and gives updates often. I have no worries at all dropping my pup with her. I highly recommend her!”

“I'm SO GLAD I found Taylor! She is so easy to work with, so conscientious, so thorough and perceptive, and I feel she cares for my kitties like they were her own. Thank you Taylor, for making my cats happy while I'm gone.”
“A big thank you to Brandy for going above and beyond to keep my cats happy and well while I was away. I always love seeing the photos she takes each visit! Even my shyest cat clearly trusts her now. She recommended toys and other things that could improve their daily lives, kept my place very tidy, and was patient and helpful - even when random issues (out of our control) popped up with accessing my place when I was not there to solve it.”
About: I've owned and cared for animals since I was 7. From feeding , walking, grooming and playing/exercising with dogs, to pet sitting. I have personal experience with a wide variety of other animals as well, such as cats, rodents like hampsters,gerbals and rats, fish (mostly just beta's) iguanas,bearded dragons, some snakes, birds, rabbits and even the occasional tarantula. I also have a partial vet tech degree and know basic animal first aid and CPR. I'm currently a stay at home mom. I am available during the school day from 9am -12pm, and open weekends. I am looking for long term and regular clients with set schedules, but I am flexible as well if need be. Please use code LYNDSM47021 for 20% your first booking with me. I will care for your pets as I would my own .Their safety is always my main concern and I will leave your home spotless like I was never their. Leave a tip and I might evan take out the trash 😸 **Light grooming optional**
“We are very pleased and so appreciative of Katelyn and Brock. Rhiannon and Shadow were well taken care. I got daily updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was away for 5 days. GREAT people! Would definitely ask them to watch my cats again.”
“Isabella arrived right on time for Mazie’s drop-in walk and kept me updated throughout. She was attentive and communicative, and best of all, she sent photos from their time together—I loved seeing Mazie enjoying the outing. Isabella clearly cares about the dogs in her care. Mazie was happy when she got home. Couldn’t ask for better. Will definitely book again!”
“Melissa went above and beyond during her house sitting for me. She’s communicative, reliable, and she even cleaned my apartment for me, which was extremely kind and appreciated. I trust my cats with her and I would book again with Melissa in a heartbeat.”
“Karissa took excellent care of our kitties while we were gone for a week. Additionally, she watered our vegetable gardens and flowers, and kept them in perfect shape during a hot spell. She kept cats’ food area immaculate. Kitties enjoyed their daily visits and we enjoyed getting updates with pictures each day. Thank you, Karissa!”
“Dillon was is just what we have been hoping to find in a caregiver for our cautious and smart Border collie, Spud. He is the one who she will be caring for on future visits so she has been given him time to decide if he likes her. We are very pleased how she has not rushed him, but is giving him just enough attention to let him know that she is a friend. We are happy with the results she is having with our very cautious, fearful dog. He generally barks and backs off from anyone who he does not know, but we can see that he is already beginning to warm up to Dillon. We are very pleased with the progress so far. Thank you Dillon!”
About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.
“I would highly recommend Jenna. She kept me informed during my vacation which enabled me to enjoy my time in Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. Most importantly, my cat was provided high quality care and human interaction and Leonard, my cat, seemed content when I returned.”
About: My love for animals started growing up on a dairy farm in Pennsylvania. I would bring home and animals that I thought needed a loving mom and home. I have owned many animals throughout my life and currently have two German Shepherd Dogs. I used to work more than a full time job a Sheriff's Deputy and employed many dog walkers for my pets. I grew more disappointed and frustrated with every dog walker not providing the care I expected or requested. I'm a full time student now finishing my bachelor's degree and have become a stay at home dog mom. My past experiences have inspired me to become the dog walker I was searching for, and providing exceptional care. No request is too small or unusual. I have a passion for animals and healthy pet habits which have developed over the years and am excited to start offering pet care to others! I am a full time student with an online university so I am able to fit any last minute request in without issue. I know what it's like to be forced for an extra 4 hours of work or called in on a day off. I understand and have lived the last minute life, and am here to help without any crazy requirements. I currently do not offer in home care for pets at this time. Hopefully this changes in the future as we expand our lives here.
“Nicque was so great with my cat Phoenix! He immediately loved her when she came for the meet and greet. He jumped up and sat right on her lap, which he doesn’t even do for my friends that are around quite often! He was definitely relaxed when we got home and it made me feel so relaxed being away knowing that Nicque was there giving him love and taking care of him! I highly recommend Nicque and will definitely contact her in the future if we ever need a sitter for Phoenix!!”
“This was my first experience using a Rover sitter and Ashley was a dream! She was very communicative, reliable, and caring. Having her check in on my cat helped put my mind at ease and I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”
“Maryjane was great! She stepped in when an emergency forced my other sitter to end the stay early and she picked up the care for my cat without missing a beat! My cat clearly loved her, too. He was happy and well fed, and my apartment looked great when I got home! I will definitely book with her again!”

“Koko loves to visit Diane & Augie, and we love sending her because we know how happy and well cared for when she is there. We also appreciate how well Diane communicates before, during and after the booking.”
About: I grew up on a large family farm with all kinds of animals. We recently had two senior Shih Tzu's that each had their own special needs. After the loss, we are ready to open our home to new pups! We love all dogs and animals of all kinds. Our property is a large 3 acres. Our large backyard is fenced. We enjoy hiking and long walks. My husband works from home so there's someone always here for potty breaks, snuggles and treats. We do have one friendly, easygoing cat. Your dog must be comfortable around cats. We are happy to give medications or whatever special needs that you might require. My husband works from home and we are generally homebody people. I work about 32 hours a work. I am usually at work at 10 am and home by 5:30 pm. Our cat is self-sufficient and has his own bathroom space with his automatic food feeder and litter box. This limits dogs from being cat box curious.
“Their home and property is fantastic. My dog smiled every minute she was there. I would give Linda and her husband 10 🌟 if I could! My Ruby was treated with genuine loving ❤️ care...”
“Amanda is very patient with our little ball of nervous energy. I am a first time dog owner, and Amanda has been very helpful with offering good advice and setting my mind at ease. Our puppy is very high maintenance, and Amanda has been very patient and kind to him. We are very grateful.”
“Nicole and Jarrod are amazing for doggy daycare. You know your dog has fun when they’re excited to leave not to mention the fun places they take the dogs. Thanks again guys”
“Oh my goodness, out of the many different sitters we have worked with on Rover, Pam is by far the best we have ever encountered. That is to say that the care that she and her husband provided our nervous little puppy was 100% perfectly suited to his needs. No competing dogs, no high energy little kids to amp our puppy’s nervous energy into high gear. Perfectly calm home environment that is perfectly suited for anyone who has a high energy dog or puppy that needs calm spaces to remind them how to act calmly. So very grateful for the care Rocky received in this “daycare””
“Leslie was my kind of people, AND my doggos' kind of people! She was patient with my anxious guy Walter and delighted in the antics of our puppy Dolly. She was lovely about my concerns and allowed me to sit with the dogs to ease into the stay and socializing with her dog Daisy, who was gracious about the energy my dogs have! We will definitely be back! Thank you, Leslie!”
About: Santiago and Josie Nuñez With over 15 years of experience in caring for dogs, we treat every dog like family. As proud owners of three dogs—two Boxers and a Papillon mix—we understand firsthand the love and attention they deserve. We work Monday through Wednesday and are available for drop offs Wednesday evening. Our Schedule is flexible if needed to drop off on off days We have 8 acres of land with a secure, fenced area for the dogs to roam, as well as kennels for times when close supervision isn’t possible.
“Maria did a fantastic job taking care of Piglet. She is a sweet gal and obviously an animal lover, which is who you want to leave your babies with. I think piggy would tell me she had a wonderful time if she could talk. Maria is really good at communicating too, which is a bonus! Thank you, Maria for taking such good care of my baby!!”
“Amanda was very gracious towards our very naughty puppy. Apparently, some of the nervous behaviors that we don’t see at home came out with an unholy flourish at Amanda‘s home. But I appreciate the fact that Amanda gave us a full and honest report (which is helpful for us to gauge the areas he still needs significant training) and was very kind about the negatives. The most important thing, though, was that he settled down in the car almost immediately. Our dog is a very nervous dog, so if he has had a rough time at a dog sitter, we know right away because he whines and whimpers all the way home. After leaving Amanda‘s house, he winded for about 60 seconds and then went to sleep. Hallelujah! Thank you, Amanda, for the top quality care you have given to our very low quality puppy. I am especially grateful that Amanda was willing to take the puppy at the last minute, because my husband had a hospital procedure and I had completely forgotten about making arrangements for the dog. What a godsend Amanda has been.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for around 9 years now, and have pet sat for many family and friends through those years! I also have experience with farm animals, and love every second of it! Spending time with animals is one of my favorite things to do! I look forward to making some new animal friends! I am currently in school, but it is mainly online so I will have plenty of time to care for your animals! I am available from early in the morning, until the evenings! I am also available on most weekends! I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to run around. I have a friendly 9 year old German shepherd who loves to play! We have a beautiful place for walks as well right nearby! And as for caring for your furry family in your home, I will do whatever you need me to! Feeding, playing, and just spending quality time!
“Hannah was great with our sometimes shy or skittish Goldendoodle, who loved playing with her Golden Retriever. She sent a couple of updates during the day and our dog came home tired and happy from a day that included a walk at Pt. Isabel. We are excited to have found Hannah and will certainly be using her services again.”
“Stephanie is the best. I have not wanted to give a review because if I tell you how great she is she'll be booked up and I might not be able to get my Ruby booked at her place. I am tickled pink when I pick up my dog from her place because she is so conscientious intelligent and loving with all of the dogs she takes care of. When I pick up my fur baby she's exhausted from her fun day spending it at Stephanie's place. And he doesn't even want to leave.”
About: My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is not just cared for, but cared for with genuine love. I’ve been caring for pets for years and truly treat every dog or cat like part of the family. From playful puppies with endless energy to sweet senior pets who need extra patience and gentle handling, I tailor my care to each animal’s needs. What sets me apart is my attentive, personalized approach — I don’t just “watch” pets, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important routines are, whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, administering medications, or keeping up with daily walks and playtime. I work from home, which means your pet will never feel “left alone” during the day. My flexible schedule allows me to give plenty of attention, walks, and play breaks throughout the day — not just morning and evening check-ins. I also share my life with Barkley, my friendly dog who loves having new buddies around. He’s a great companion for pets who enjoy company, playtime, or just having another dog to nap near. Together, we make sure your pet feels safe, entertained, and part of the family. Whether it’s sticking to feeding routines, long walks, or snuggle breaks between meetings, caring for pets is a natural part of my daily rhythm — not something I squeeze in. Your pup will have the best of both worlds here — space to run, play, and explore, plus all the comforts of a loving home. We live on an acre of land with large fenced dog runs, so pets can enjoy plenty of safe outdoor time. Whether your dog loves to zoom around, sniff every corner, or just lounge in the sun, there’s room for it all. Inside, pets are treated like family. I make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and included in the daily routine. Walks, play sessions, and cuddle time are built into the day, and I keep a close eye to make sure everyone is safe and happy. With my own dog, Barkley, as a friendly companion, visiting pups usually settle in quickly and feel right at home.
About: I’ve grown up haveing all types of dogs and animals dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, ferrets. I love all types of animals and really enjoy working with dogs. I have worked with dogs rescues in Los Angeles and foster a lot of dogs from all ages. I have worked training a lot of dogs for not pulling on leashes to being fully off leash dogs. I am safe with reactive dogs and specialize in strong breeds. Keeping dogs safe and allowing them to make good choices is my top priority. I have trained with top trainers with my own dogs and work with balanced dog practices. Structures and rules lead to Great dogs and treats along the way. Learning what makes each dog tick and connections are so important. Each dog is so special and giving them the world even if it’s just one pee break and a cuddle is the best feeling. I am currently in town for the next 2 months due to my full time job on hiatus. I am fully available and pretty flexible. If my service area doesn’t cover you please send me a message rates can be adjusted to include travel further. Safely is my top priority with dogs. Keeping a dog safe with a new person is so important. Deleting on what the dog is accustomed to i use Leashes and slip leads , Ecollars, prong collars whatever the client wants and what works best to get the dogs and clients needs met. Can take the dog out by the house or out to a lake for swimming and ball throwing. I am very aware of my environment to keep the dog safe from others and feel a private area is best for dogs while under my care. I have a even tempered 2 year old playful dogs as well that may join the adventure once I feel comfortable with your dogs and them knowing me.

“Milo was so excited to see Lois today. She arrived on time (early actually ) for their third walk together. Milo has stranger anxiety and when he saw Lois , he couldn’t wait to give her love. She understands his energy, anxiety and strength , and handles him with ease. Thanks Lois !!”
About: We are a family full of love for pets! My Husband has volunteered at Sammies Friends walking dogs, and at home we have three indoor-outdoor cats, and a Chihuahua named Bella who’s 10 (my Daughter’s). We had to put down our 14-year-old chocolate lab named Yotis a few years ago, and was my Husband’s best friend! My Son’s 12 year old German Shepard Zani passed a couple years ago as well, and she was the best dog addition to this family. We have always had dogs and cats in the home, and all are friends with each other and they each have unique personalities! We have a dog park nearby as well! The oldest cat I have had was a tabby named Chica, and got her at 8 weeks old when I was 16, and she was 15 when she passed!!! Our pets are our fur family and we love them all!!! Kids are all grown up now, and my Husband is gone a lot as a Fire Captain, so I am more than willing and available to housesit dogs and/or cats in your home. It’s a great opportunity to meet new people and pets. My Husband works 3 days on, 4 days off and likes to help with your pets as well. He is a Dog Whisperer, and I am the Cat Lady! We love taking nature walks, and have both been on Rover since before COVID in 2019. I am available at any time due to my kids being older now, amd we don’t currently have a dog of our own. I love getting out of the house and exploring new neighborhoods and areas especially during Spring and summer. We have resided in Nevada County for decades! We don’t dog board due to having too many household members and pets already, but in your home they are taken care of exactly how they should be. With compassion and love.
About: I specialize in providing quality care for cats, dogs, rodents, and reptiles/amphibians. I have extensive experience caring for animals from all walks of life (pun intended), from senior pets who require some extra special attention to the many creatures that typically go unappreciated (especially those of the scaly or slimy variety). I'm not afraid to get down and dirty with pets and have endless patience and understanding when it comes to accidents, behavioral issues, or any of the other less glamorous aspects of pet ownership. I have over a decade of experience with dog, cat, and reptile caretaking, some experience with rodent and bird caretaking, and I am always willing to learn more so I may satisfy your pet needs to a T. I think of and treat pets like the family they are and am dedicated to ensuring and promoting their wellbeing; night or day, rain or shine, I will be there for you and your pets. My availability for daycare drop-offs/pick-ups is 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Drop-ins and all-day sitting (non-overnight) is 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. For overnight services (currently unavailable) any start or end time is acceptable. Same-day booking is available and I’m typically available during holidays except Christmas. Currently I cannot stay overnight but can sit all day at your home multiple days in a row (I just need to go home to sleep). I provide undivided attention to pets and specialized care according to your instructions. My own dog is small, calm, and well-behaved so he is not to worry about when interacting with your pet in my home during doggy daycare. The other dog I live with barks upon first meeting but otherwise does not act out. For day care: The house is large as is the backyard with plenty of room to run around. There is no fence but neither backyards flanking ours have dogs, if that is a concern. My family has no qualms about dogs on furniture so if your baby is a couch potato he/she is more than welcome. I do ask you bring your own leashes, food bowls, and food for your dog for day care. For sitting you can trust me to be prudent, responsible, caring, and dedicated to your pet's wellbeing, as well as respectful of your home's interior and exterior. I can bathe short-hair and medium-hair dogs up to 30 lbs as long as you have a detachable shower wand and your dog is not allergic to the chemicals in dog shampoo. Pricing depends on the size of your dog and extent of services requested. ≤10lbs = $10; >10lbs = $1 per pound (15lbs = $15 and so on).
About: I started taking care of friends' and neighbors' dogs after retiring in 2024. My lifelong love for cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes is now my daily passion! As an active retiree, I don't have any pets currently, and the house is empty and waiting for my next furry friend! I've cared for everything from dachshunds to a Bernese Mountain Dog. I love cats, but I want to watch them in your home, not mine. Happy to house-sit, work overnight shifts, and care for senior dogs and puppies. Although I don't have a fenced yard, I do have miles of walking trails and parks in the community, as well as an electronic fence for any dogs that need unrestricted access to a yard. I am fully retired and spend my days caring for your pets. Rarely will your important pet be left alone, if at all. I used Rover with my senior dog, Tucker, for over 5 years and met some wonderful people. It was a relief to me when I traveled, knowing my best friend was also enjoying his time in a safe, loving home. Now I meet new animal friends every week, and it feeds my soul and theirs. Your fur baby will have a dedicated sleeping space, feeding space, and unlimited access to our yard, depending on your needs. Full access to the entire house. I encourage you to bring toys, pet beds, crates, and any other items that will make your cherished pet comfortable. We are comfortable giving medication to older dogs, working with young puppies, and customizing our days to fit your pet's regular routines (such as walks, feeding, medication, and brushing). We have access to a private dog park, but we only go there after discussing it with you in advance. Note: we have an unfenced yard but use sound/ vibration to alert your pup if s/he is trying to escape. No electricity involved, just moderate stimulation. Most dogs learn the boundaries very quickly and without any discomfort.

I can house sit all the time to walk them as needed First thing I do before and while they go out side I will observe all there escape routes and Make sure that everything is closed and secure
About: Having animals ranging in all ages since I was 5 has definitely helped but also helping friends and family since the age of 13 has been the best experience. I am available 24/7, our animals are just as important as us so I believe in having time for them whenever you or them may need it. Always following directions given by owner and doing thorough checks throughout the time I am with your 4 legged family. Staying aware of surroundings when out and about in walks.
About: I have always grown up around animals and absolutely love them and getting to know their own personalities. I have had cats and dogs and a bunny! I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! I am new to California, and originally from North Carolina and Massachusetts! I am currently a cosmetology student during the week but have flexible availability in the evening and early mornings as well as weekends! I will treat all animals with patience, love, and compassion but if needed I can be stern. At home my dog get plenty of cuddles and recommended exercise, my bunny gets nightly cuddles and dark room for 9-5 to get rest. Every animal starts their days bright and early and ends their nights with cuddles and love.
“Natalie is kind, consistent and reliable. We’ve been very lucky to have her skillful, calm, presence assisting with daily walks and positive reinforcement training for our high energy pup, Kai.”
About: I've been the go-to pet sitter and caregiver for family and friends since my teen years (over 20 years) and I'm excited for the opportunity to expand and care for pets in our community! I have strong attention to detail and intuition when it comes to animals. Over the years, I've worked with a variety of dog breeds in all sizes, and my personal experience with bully mixes and shepherds has allowed me to become a great caregiver for pets with special needs and/or behavioral "differences". ;) For example: -medications -insulin injections -subQ fluids -food aggression -walking and social behaviors I also care for cats (I had mine for about 23 years!) and have experience caring for reptiles such as snakes and lizards, and farm animals too. I work online or 3-5 hours at a time in-person with other clients, so I'm available throughout the day for check-ins, feeding, playtime and walks! In my pet clients home, I'm available to let pups in or out as needed. I would leave them in designated areas (yard, crate, etc.) And follow rules and procedures set by the family and spend quality time with your pets.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all breeds for 15 years. I am incredibly responsible and great with animals!! I’ve trained multiple dogs! Young and old, breeds do not scare me nor does certain behaviors! I have lots of experience. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I make it a priority to give pets consistent attention, exercise, and companionship. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as overnight care if needed. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for to ensure they get timely walks, meals, playtime, and any specific care they require. I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping pets happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I am a very attentive pet sitter, making sure to watch them while in the home and be with them at all time while outside!
About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I am a lover of our furry friends, and you can be sure that I will treat your pet like my own. I have lots of experience caring for pet owners while away. I’m super flexible open to any accommodations necessary for pets and their owners. I work part-time from home, so I am at home most of the day and I’m able to provide lots of accommodations for pet owners, including frequent bathroom breaks and outdoor play. my dog Rosie is ill Labradoodle and she is full of life and needs lots of activity. I love to take her on long walks by the lake near our home and take her swimming and paddle boarding as well. I free feed my dogs so she has access to food all day however I am also open to having a certain feeding schedule for your pup if needed!
“Dillon seems to be a dog person by nature—intuitive with my Australian Shepherd and clearly knowledgeable about training and working with dogs with reactive traits. I am so happy to have found her and feel great about working together in the future.”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. And I have been pet/house sitting since I was 14. I am very well with animals, as I live in a farm and have a dog and cats myself. I will care for your animals like they’re are my own. I am currently a college student with an open schedule. I like in Grass Valley but go to school in Rocklin. So I am down in the Rocklin and Roseville area a lot. I would care for them like my own. I love to play with them, cuddle with them, and I will give them treats if allowed.
“Grace is thorough, attentive, and obviously well-versed in the needs of a pup. Grace communicates effectively with a personable manner, and my shy dog looks so obviously delighted in pictures of their time together. I’ll look for Grace’s services again, and would recommend.”
“Hannah was wonderful with our puppy! We had her drop in to do some dog walks in a pinch and even though our puppy decided to be a pain and do things like hide under the couch she handled it like a pro! We will definitely ask her for more dog walks and also overnight stays in the future. Thanks Hannah!”

“What an amazing experience! My puppy was so happy and came home almost sad to leave! The daily updates and pictures put my mind to ease! Thank you, Diane for treating him like family!”
“Our pup stayed with Grant and his “pack” for 12 nights. (The longest time he’s been away from home) Grant kept us updated during our trip with multiple text, pictures and videos. Sox had a great time running around and playing with the other dogs. We got him back very well behaved and tired which is always the goal for my high energy pup. We will definitely be using Grant again for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Lainey loved her stay with Amanda! Amanda sent me lots of photos and kept in good communication. She took our dog out on walks and did lots of outside time with her. She was also flexible with pickup time for us!”
“The best ever! Kind, communicative, and so so accommodating. We left our pup for two weeks and several stays with Kelsey leading up to the vacation. Our pup seemed to have had a vacation too of nonstop plays and loving. It made our vacation so much enjoyable knowing our pup is so loved. Thank you again!”
“Samantha was fantastic with our babies. This is not your typical boarding place. She described it as summer camp for doggies and it is accurate. The area she has set up for the dogs is well thought-out, clean, and meets all of their needs and more. She took lots of pictures (different subject but her pictures were amazing), kept me updated throughout the day and let me know when my dogs were tucked in for the night. My city dogs got to meet horses, goats, and pigs and I think they had a great time, because they slept for so long when they got home. Im looking forward to their next summer camp with Samantha!”
“Thank you Lisa. Excellent dog care! She took great care of our dog Aspen for one night—very friendly, reliable, and attentive. They sent us picture, updates and communicated timely and well throughout. We’ll definitely be using her again and look forward to be repeat customers!”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“Linda was really great with our senior dog. She really watched out for Lizzie and cared for her beyond what I could have imagined. Lizzie began having severe health issues (preexisting health problems that just got worse) and Linda made sure to let me know what was going on. Lizzie refused to eat or drink anything, and appeared to be in respiratory distress. Eventually Linda had to take our dog to an emergency vet. I had to fly back from Utah and couldn’t be there until late at night, so Linda stayed with Lizzie as long as she could and sent me photos and updates on Lizzie’s status the entire time. I cannot express my gratitude for Linda’s care and compassion for Lizzie. Wonderful dog sitter, so kind and truly a dog lover. I cannot recommend Linda enough!”
About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.
“Jena and family provided very loving and attentive care of our dog Harper. They took her for walks, played with her, loved on her and were very understanding and persistent in encouraging Harper to eat (she is more into people and play than food). Jena provided photos often showing Harper’s time with them which we enjoyed and appreciated. I highly recommend Jena and would be happy to use her services again.”
“Nicole & Jarrod are great people. I know that because my pup is always happy to see them and Charlie. I enjoy the pic's and the report card I know my dog is in good hands.”
“Abbie did a great job taking care of Ella-dog. Her communication was prompt and professional and most importantly Ella-dog had a great time. 10/10 would happily recommend to anyone.”
“Sandy has watched my Charm 2 times and she won’t be able to get rid of us now! Sandy is so caring and gives updates often. I have no worries at all dropping my pup with her. I highly recommend her!”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“Maria was very welcoming and caring. She kept us informed and sent photos of our Bella which helped us enjoy our trip even more. We felt very comfortable leaving Bella for several nights. We highly recommend her. Thank you Maria.”
“Nicole was awesome and Bailey had a fantastic time. She treated Bailey like she was her own dog and I couldn’t ask for more sent many pictures and updates and just love the fact that I have somebody that I can go to if I have to go out of town I highly recommend her.”
“Absolutely would use this family again! They treated Fancy and Rowdy as if they were a part of their home. The dog came home exhausted from playing and we could tell they had the best time ever with the children. Would highly recommend this family to dog sit 🙏🏼🤩”
About: I have had dogs and cats all my life and have been cat sitting for a friend for the passed 3 years. I can handle giving medication and large dogs. I'm a Preschool Teacher during the day looking to help where I can. 😊 I work Monday through Friday, however I'm off fairly early at 3:30pm everyday so afternoons, evenings, and weekends are free. I have no pets anymore so they will have all the attention! There is a lovely creek that runs through my complex for walks and plenty of toys and energy! And for the older furr babies they are more than welcome on the furniture for cuddles. I also have treats if they are okay for their diet 😊 I have experience with giving medication as well if need be.
