The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Annie B. did an exceptional job caring for my cats, Emperor and Empress. From the very beginning, she was attentive, reliable, and clearly committed to their well-being. What stood out the most was her flexibility and professionalism—she adjusted her schedule to accommodate additional days without hesitation and honored every commitment she made. That level of dependability is rare and truly appreciated. It gave me peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands, and it’s clear she treated them with care and respect. I highly recommend Annie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and dedicated. She absolutely deserves five stars.”
“Liz is a gem! We would 10/10 recommend her. We were fortunate to find her to care for our two elder cats at a time when they needed extra special attention. One had just started injections, and the other antibiotics. Liz was exceptionally attentive, caring, detail oriented, and meticulous in learning their needs and routine. The cats immediately took a liking to her gentle and positive energy, even in a time of great stress for them - and they were so happy to be near her almost immediately. She provides thoughtful communication and pictures during her visits, and put our anxiety at ease so we could enjoy our time away knowing our fur kids were in such good hands. We are grateful to her for being our sitter and know you will be too.”

About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve been rescuing and caring for both cats and dogs, as well as helping friends, family, and neighbors with their pets whenever they were away. I have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities—from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and care. I make it a priority to keep pets on their normal routine, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to make both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and confident while you’re away.
About: I’ve had multiple cats in my household since I was 11 years old, and they’re definitely one of my favorite animals. I’ll feed your cat according to your schedule, ensure that their water bowl is fresh each day, and clean their litter once or twice a day. I understand that each cat has a different personality and amount of attention that they prefer, and I’ll adopt their preferences and treat them accordingly with care.

About: I have always been a dog lover, and I am now the mother of two dog-loving children. Your dog will not be short on love, affection, and play in our home! I am available full-time four days out of the week. I am available to go on walks/hikes with your dog during the week and/or weekends. I would be available for overnight stays during the weekends. I have a fenced yard, and I can easily crate your dog if needed. Your dog would be welcome to come inside our home. Your dog would not be left unaccompanied or unsupervised in our home. For dogs with good social skills, I would also be able to take them to a dog park nearby. I’m currently self-employed and often work from home. I am available everyday, except Wednesdays, to dog-sit. I regularly take my dog on walks in the morning and evening with a couple of potty-breaks throughout the day. Cinder would love some company on her walks! We have a fenced yard they can go outside. We often take breaks to play and stretch in the house. There is easy access to water in the home.
“Great Doggy Daycare! Annie took wonderful care of my dog, Shiloh, during daycare. She was kind, professional, and kept great communication. Shiloh came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know! I highly recommend Annie. Randy & Shiloh 🐾”
“First time Rover user, and we couldn't more impressed with Annie. Starting with the "meet and greet", Annie welcomed our big baby despite his huge size (100lbs). He has an injury that requireds a special touch, and Annie more than delivered. We received pictures and videos throughout the day, and I swear, he almost didn't want to come home! We will certainly let Annie care for our big baby on day and overnight visits in the future! 🥰”
“Wendy and AJ provided excellent care for my little buddy Chihuahua mix Mylo. They even went out of their way to bring him home. I was concerned about drinking and driving. So they volunteered to bring Mylo home. That was very sweet of them and I hope to continue having them as Mylo’s future care provider.”
“Reginay did an amazing job taking care of my puppy Minji. She was very communicative and provided me updates throughout the day. I will keep booking with her whenever I need to!”
About: I've been surrounded by and taken care of dogs all of my life. I have experience with dogs from very small (miniature dachshund) to very large (great Pyrenees Anatolian Shepard) During my at-home work weeks, I am available 24 hours each day to support your animals. I am available early mornings, late nights, and able to pick up your pup for easier transportation. I do travel for work occasionally so please check my calendar for my availability. My husband and I share two male labs, Jeff and Asher, who are friendly neutered dogs that love to play. I can crate them in a separate space if your pup is more shy! We say no dogs on the furniture but the boys sleep with us every night and sneak onto the couch often. We have a large fenced yard with lots of space and toys for your pups to play. We also live in a nice area near a park for extra walking and play. We only crate our boys while we are out of the house, but can adjust to your needs.

About: I currently have two dogs at home that have been raised since they were puppies. I provide consistent routines for our dogs and am confident in my ability to provide stability for your dogs while you are away from home. My home has a fenced off area indoors and outdoors to give your dogs plenty of space to roam around and not have to be fully cooped up all day. I will help your dogs have a home away from home. I currently have a full time job, but my job also allows for work from home so my schedule is based on my ability to be home during your pet’s stay. Even if I need to be in office, I can come home during my lunch break for 30 minutes to tend to the dogs. On weekends I will be home and only go out for a few hours at a time for groceries. I am very familiar with crate training and other simple tricks for dogs. I always feed all dogs separately to ensure no food guarding occurs and we monitor the dogs throughout meal time. I am comfortable with feeding basic medications if needed.
“Krystal was absolutely wonderful with Max! She walked him mornings and evenings while I was away and sent great updates. Max is a sweet boy, but it always takes a special person to make him feel completely comfortable, and Krystal did just that. She is reliable, caring, and super easy to communicate with. I will definitely be booking her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: We are a mother, daughter duo! You may meet myself YingYing or Annie, my daughter. However, we provide the same adequate care! Animal sitting has been a big thing of ours since we can remember and now that we have adopted Bingo, it has pushed us to do this full-time. We have had Bingo for about 3 years with no issues and no emergency pet visits. She is healthy and lively albeit a little lazy. You can say she is at the top of our food chain in our household. We live in an area where there are trails right next to our house for walks and the park is a block away. We also have a minivan that can take the doggies to the park if they have mobility issues. We are equipped in handling pushy dogs when they are walking and can control their behaviors. Additionally, we can read some body cues from dogs. Please message or email us before booking so we are aware of your dog’s situation and are able to care for them to the full extent. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids aged 10 and 14 so I can accept bookings whenever is necessary. I intend to pet sit as a full time job with opening on the weekends as well. Bingo is quite calm and careless. She is trained to go into a bedroom on command and we have multiple helping hands to situate her and your own fur baby.
“Justin was the best. He was never late and helped me so much. I was injured so couldn’t deal with my trash bag, Justin helped me throw them away as well. Again he’s the pro and the kindest.”
About: I have been a proud parent to many labs. Few dogs can match their energy. I look forward to loving your pups like I love mine! I work a hybrid schedule and am typically available, throughout the day, 5+ days a week (including weekends). I am an avid walker and used to walking multiple miles a day with my dog. My availability is relatively well planned out, so if you request a sitting in advance, I can always let you know if I will be available. I love all of my pets as if they were my children. I love dogs and cats more than anything. I have two lovely cats and have had two magnificent labs in the past. There are few dogs that can throw more at you than a lab, so I'm sure I can handle your pup!
“Claire was such a fantastic caretaker for my energetic puppy. She was professional and responsive. I felt so reassured knowing that Claire was with my pup. Thank you!!!”

About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was 10 years old. Growing up, I often brought home stray dogs and cats that needed love, care, and a safe place to stay. I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets while they were out of town or busy with work. I always made sure their pets stayed on their normal feeding, potty, and exercise routines, and I treated every animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to provide updates while you’re away. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I will follow their daily routine, provide plenty of playtime, exercise, love, and attention, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. If your pet has any special needs, medications, or instructions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them. In addition to caring for your pets, I’ll also help keep your home tidy and in order so you can return to a clean, stress-free environment. It would be my pleasure to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing they’re in loving and capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I schedule my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to keeping your pet on their normal routine. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. In your home, I’ll respect your space, follow all care instructions, and keep everything clean and organized.

About: Hi! My name is Liz. I recently re-downloaded Rover after being away for a few years, and I’m excited to start pet sitting again through Rover. I’m a college graduate with years of experience caring for pets through my mom’s Rover account, along with ongoing cat sitting jobs and trusted repeat clients. I’m known for being a great communicator, dependable, and attentive to both pets and owners. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, walks, overnight care, and can also help with light household tasks like bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, pulling trash cans in or out, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. I especially love caring for senior pets and pets who do best staying in the comfort of their own home. I understand every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I always try to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re gone. For overnight stays, my fiancé may occasionally accompany me for safety and comfort purposes, but your pet’s care and respect for your home always come first. I’m happy to communicate openly beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and confident. Feel free to message me anytime with questions. I respond quickly and would love to see if we’re a good fit for you and your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule during the week. Outside of pet sitting, I spend my time applying to jobs in clinical research, running errands, doing chores, and meeting with friends, which gives me plenty of availability and flexibility for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore to me. I’m very attentive with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. At this time, I only offer care in my client’s home because I have an anxious 9-year-old tabby cat at home, and I want to keep his environment calm and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For overnight stays, I usually stay in the guest room or designated area of the home, and many pets enjoy sleeping nearby or spending time with me throughout the day. I’m very respectful of your home and prioritize cleanliness, safety, and communication. I make sure doors are securely locked, pets are supervised carefully, and feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and potty breaks are handled consistently. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress and keep them happy during your absence. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy, and loving environment where both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for.

“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Thank you Tammy for watching our pet on a very short notice. It was great to see Leo had company of pet named Buster. They seemed to have some great time. Tammy shared pictures of our pet and very responsive when needed. Thanks you for everything you do for pet care.”
“I just got my fur babies back from Anais’s overnight stay. She was so kind and caring to them! They adjusted well, and I was really happy with how she took care of them and kept me in the loop. We’ll definitely recommend her as a sitter again and can confidently recommend her to other fur parents who need pet care.”
“Got responses almost immediately every time I texted Zariyah, before and during my dog’s stay. I got updates and videos almost everyday and I appreciate that a lot!”
“We hit the jackpot with Brandee! She is extremely warm and generous, and it is very obvious that she loves dogs very much! Our girls had a wonderful time, and they ran around the backyard so much that they were all tuckered out when they got home. We will use her again without hesitation.”
“Annie is great! She’s so sweet and kind! She accommodated every need for my Bella and went above and beyond. Check ins were good and she even bathed my dog. She treated Bella like her own and for that, I’m thankful!”
“5/5! Achara had great communication and she was amazing with my puppy! My puppy didn't even look back at me when I dropped him off 🫠 Photo updates made me feel at ease and she reassured me that he was doing well. Will definitely rebook with her when I need a sitter again!”
“Ceudi and her wonderful family were great sitters for our senior Boxer (11yr). She was attentive to his medical needs (medicine and care) and stubborn habits. She sent daily updates and always responded quickly to our messages. She lives in a nice neighborhood with a large park nearby. We will definitely be reaching out to her for our future sitting needs.”
“Rekha and her husband were amazing with my Tyson. Tyson had an extended stay with Rekha. She sent me regular updates and pics of Tyson throughout his stay. Will definitely book again !”
“Great experience with Kathleen and Bob. They took very good care of my little guy. They provided daily updates and sent me pictures daily. Definitely using them again to watch my little guy.. thanks so much”
“Annie is always so great with our dog. She always sends us pictures and updates 3-4 times a day. She give us peace of mind we go on vacation that our dog is in a safe and loving home. We appreciate you Annie!!”
“My dog Oreo had a great two weeks with Marilee and Joe. Oreo had loads of fun playing and wrestling with their dog Zuko who is a great role model for my 3 year old pup. The entire family welcomed and played with Oreo. He even got to go visit the river to swim! 😊 🐕 💗 💦 Marilee was great with communication and sent photos of my happy pup! Lol! He had such a great time I was sort of worried that Oreo would be in withdrawal when we got home without all of their company and attention! We are planning on having Oreo visit again when we go out of town.”
“Our dogs had an amazing stay with this daughter and mom duo. They gave us daily updates and we can tell they loved our dogs like their own. They had a nice yard and space for the dogs to go out and play in! Even with the yard space they still took them on walks and played ball with them. We will definitely book with them again in the future!”
“Briana was absolutely amazing! Her daily updates were a nice thoughtful and personal touch, especially since this was our first extended time apart from each other. Beau definitely seemed to have enjoyed himself during his stay!”
“Qiana is a blessing. Our 2 dogs have never been away from home. We were gone for 7 days. 1 dog is 1.5 years old and the other one is 8 years old. We received daily up dates with video and photos. The dogs were happy and playing in the videos and photos. Qiana made us feel secure with our dogs in her care. We will be rebooking.💞 Thank you.”
“We had a wonderful experience with Aya! We went on our longest family trip and left our pup with Aya. She had great reviews and knew she would take good care of Sianna, while we were gone. She sent updates and pictures, and in each photo, our dog looked happy and was having fun. If you need to find excellent care for your dog, we highly recommend Rover and Aya! We trusted her with our beloved dog and know she will take great care of your too!”
About: Animals have always been my people. 🐾 I've spent over 20 years as a devoted pet owner, including my two wonderful Australian Shepherds. I am so grateful to have had them in my life to love and spoil! Ella and Maddie were well traveled too, even visiting the Grand Canyon and Yosemite! All my friends and family rely on me to take care of their pets and homes while they are away and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Early in my career, I spent five years as a Pet Care Manager at PetSmart, caring daily for all the animals, keeping them healthy and happy until we helped pair them with their forever homes. I'm very experienced with all levels of pet care, including special needs that require medications, injections, complex dietary routines, and reinforcing training. I am ready to handle whatever your pet needs, especially extra play time and cuddles. I am equally obsessed with all dogs and cats, and care for all breeds, sizes, and ages, from puppies and kittens through their senior years. I’m also experienced caring for birds, fish, reptiles, and small pets. 🐱🐰🐠 🐦🦎 I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so your babies get my attention all day! As a longtime Rover client myself, I know exactly what you're looking for when you're searching for the right sitter: someone experienced, trustworthy, and who will treat your animals like their own. That's a promise I take seriously. I'm currently welcoming new clients in the Elk Grove area and would love to meet you and your crew. I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! 🐶 🐱 I work remotely and can dedicate most of my time hanging out with your fur babies! I’m able to stay in your home full time. I am child free and currently do not have a dog or cat. Currently, I am able to house sit and only offering boarding in my home on a case by case basis. You let me know what your fur baby needs and I have it handled! They will get my all my attention, cuddles, and play time.
“Our dog Maggie had a great experience with April. We were booking close to the date of Maggie's stay, and April was very accommodating of our late-in-the-game request. April was always responsive to my inquiries and provided great information! This was Maggie's first time with April, and Maggie seemed to do very well. April has a very calm and welcoming demeanor that put both Maggie and me at ease. We will definitely reach out to April for booking again!”
