“This was my first time using the app and first time having my dog board at someone elses house. Cristin was amazing with communication and sending photos and updates about my dog.

About: I’ve always loved animals and wanted to get involved with them in any way via Animal Shelters, Vet schools, externships at Veterinarian clinics, sitting for friends and family, and now here😊 this is a great step for me to continue to get acquainted with the furry friends in our community and further expand my experience and knowledge on each and every pet baby out there because as a fellow pet parent I would want my baby in the best hands as well❤️ I’m home all week and not only have the space and time but as well as the joy of caring for a new furry friend! At home my doggo sleeps in my room and plays in the yard most of the day, she has a crate in the garage where she has access to for naps throughout the day and gets fed once in the morning and before bed an hour after her daily evening walk. Depending on what the owner’s needs are for their pets I can easily adjust my routine or schedule to better match their furry babies👍🏽 We’re very flexible with our routines and schedules and love to switch things up!😊
“Kimberly took special care of Del, my dog, who has trust issues coming from a hoarder situation with little contact with humans. Her taking one dog at a time is a plus for Del or most dogs who are needing to board. Her dog, Daisy, is sweet and non threatening. Kimberly gave the space Del needed when he was with her and Daisy. If I need Del boarded in Merced I will use her again.”

“Estefany was a fantastic dog sitter to my pup Ella! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very nice and easy going. She was also super flexible as I shifted the dates & times a few times. Ella had a great time with her pups Zoey & Bella. Would highly recommend to all fellow pet owners!”

“Ollie loved staying with Christienne! It’s an amazing location and my pup loved the fresh air and open space. I’m assuming that because he had me drop the windows so he could sniff as we left the house.”

“Out Dog Buddy is always excited to go see Sarah and Jamey C and their pets and daughter. When we pick him up he is happy, excited and very well taken care of. As long as Sarah is doing dog sitting/boarding, we will be using her. She takes excellent care and love of our dog.”


“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”

“I met Jasmine a few days before she was to sit with Lola. She was very friendly and put my mind at ease. When Jasmine was with Lola she had updated me through text, photos, and video which I truly appreciated! If possible, she will be my forever sitter for Lola!”

“Valeria came to check up on our cats while we were away for the holidays. They were detailed about the visits and sent photos of our little clan. Which is not an easy task considering we have 5 cats who aren't always the most social. The entire process with Valeria was very easy and comfortable for a first time Rover user like me. Everything from contacting, to the meet and greet, to the visit updates were fantastic. Will definitely be hoping to book with them again.”


“Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)”

About: I have cared for my 4-year-old domestic shorthair, named Cam, for over a year. He was a friendly stray who kept hanging around our home, and when we moved we took him with us.

During feedings, I would spend time petting them and making sure they were not stressed in their kennel. I love working with cats, and I am flexible to provide whatever care your cat may need!

“We loved the service, and from the pictures we can tell Dexter was well taken care of and he had a great time. He’s a pup so we were worried about how he would do with the other dogs but looked like he fit right in. Thanks Jon! Definitely recommend and would trust them again with our boy.”

“Nelson did such a great job watching my fur baby! I am super protective over my 3 year old Siberian Husky & Nelson provided picture updates of my dog throughout the stay. His home is a very safe space & he allowed my dog to feel comfortable& at home. My dog was so happy AND tired out! He wasn’t thirsty or hungry, he was well loved & cared for and received the exercise he needed. I would highly recommend him to anyone & definitely will be coming back!!”


“Our experience with Marcus was nothing short of stellar. Marcus saved the day by being available on short notice to watch Eve. He was quick to respond and was polite and attentive. My fiance dropped/picked up Eve, and she noted how happy Eve seemed after her visit. For me, this shows that she was well cared for and got lots of attention(which she loves). While caring for Eve, Marcus didn't hesitate to ask questions about any specific needs for Eve and provided regular pictures showing Eve having a good time. I would use Marcus again!”

About: Thank you for reviewing my profile! I am unable to edit, but my preferred name is Astro. I am a 23-year-old ag-business student with a minor in animal science. I am unavailable from 8a-12pm on weekdays, but I am available at any other time to take care of any pets you may have. I have a passion for animals because I enjoy giving them love, just as they give love back to us. This June 2026, I have cared for my former professor's 2 dogs, cat, and goat for two different weeks. I will be housesitting for her this June 21-28, so I will only have availability for walks and drop-ins at this time. I make sure to give all animals extra love while their owners are away. If no walks are bought for housesits, I will give one walk per stay, and if my schedule allows, I'll provide additional. I am comfortable with farm animals as well, if you need care and feeding for them. My pet background: I have 2 years of experience as a kennel attendant: sanitizing kennels, taking dogs for walks, feeding, and medicating both dogs and cats. I also have a few months of experience as a vet assistant: restraining animals for vaccines and nail trims. I currently have a 5-year-old chihuahua and a 4-year-old domestic shorthair cat. My chihuahua has seizures and requires a specific feeding and medication schedule, so I can easily adapt to your pets if they have additional needs. Since I was 12, I would adopt rabbits from the flea market and take care of them until I was in high school. I adopted my chihuahua as a one-month-old in 2020, and have been taking care of her ever since. My passion for animals led me to earn my AA in Animal Science, and expanded my interest in caring for farm animals as well. Animals make me happy, and after my kennel attendant job ended, I decided to try Rover out to continue working in the field I enjoy! June 21-28 I am booked for housesittng, but available for drop-ins and walks. My earliest availability starts 1:30pm on Monday thru Thursdays as I work 8a-12p. Fridays I work 10a-2/6pm so I can drop in before 9a or after 2/6pm. House-Sitting information: I am unavailable to provide services in my home, but I am available for house-sitting in your home on weekends. I have taken care of my former professor's 2 dogs in her home while she has been away a week + weekends, along with her two outside pets of a cat and goat. On weekdays, I can house-sit, but I will be in and out for personal, child, or pet errands. I'd like to note that on weekends, I will need to feed and give potty breaks for my own pets at home, but will return to your pets once finished. In my client's home, I treat it with the same respect as I would in my own home. I also make sure to keep it clean and organized as the owner has left it. I don't wish to make my client's uncomfortable, so I will make sure to ask before doing anything that wasn't previously discussed. For house-sitting, I provide basic cleaning before leaving your home (sweeping and mopping the floors).

Since moving out of my parents’ house for school, I don’t have my own pets anymore, so I cherish any chance I get to spend time with and take care of other people’s beloved fur babies! I am a full time college student, and am involved with extracurriculars as well, but I will always do my best to work with my schedule to accommodate your puppy’s needs! My availability can include weekends, earlier mornings, and later nights if that’s is what you and your pets need! I will use resources and advice provided by pet parents to best care for their four-legged kiddos, keeping their routines as uninterrupted and comfortable as possible!
“Poe really enjoy being around Jaclyn. She was so friendly and kind. She new exactly how to handle his energy. After their walk she hung out and played with him for a little bit. I will definitely be using her again”
About: I have been caring for animals all my life, on both sides of my family. I primarily grew up with dogs (of all shapes, sizes, and breeds), but I have grown to love cats just as much. I have experience caring for several animals simultaneously, including both cats and dogs. I have cared for animals from newborns to seniors and have experience caring for animals with medical needs (oral medication, injections, etc.). I love animals of all kinds and would love to take care of yours! I am a full-time student at Merced College, and I'm working on my ASTs in Mathematics and Computer Science & Engineering! I do have a couple of in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays (online wasn't available), so please message me if you are interested in booking but unsure if the dates/ times will work. Other than that, I am generally free the rest of the week. I was recently accepted to UC Merced, and I'm scheduled to transfer this fall (2025). To fully focus on my studies, I will no longer be offering dog-sitting services after mid-August of this year. I really appreciate your understanding, thank you! I can travel as needed to care for your pet in your home. I am more than happy to adapt to whatever needs/ wants you may have regarding the care of your pet!

“Josie took great care of Misha! Our meet up before this booking confirmed that her dog Nala and my dog Misha would be able to get along.

Also, it looked like Misha played sooo much and got a lot of attention, that a soon as we got home after pick up, Misha quickly fell asleep lol. Thank you for everything!”

“This was my first time using the app and first time having my dog board at someone elses house. Cristin was amazing with communication and sending photos and updates about my dog. This was the first best experience my dog and I had. She is the best person to book if your ever looking for someone to care for your baby. She gives all the attention in the world to them and treats them like a princess. I am so happy my dog felt safe and comfortable he normally always nervouse but cristin made him feel welcomed and loved which made him open up.”


About: I have taken care of dogs all of my life with some that are from friends or family. I give what the pet need to feel loved, safe, fed, comfortable. I love pet sitting young to senior dogs. The pet care would fit in daily in my routine from when I wake up to when I go to sleep so like 24 hours. I make pets feel safe by doing things to make them feel safe protecting them from harm way, getting them to trust me to help them when they need it.
About: I’ve always loved animals and wanted to get involved with them in any way via Animal Shelters, Vet schools, externships at Veterinarian clinics, sitting for friends and family, and now here😊 this is a great step for me to continue to get acquainted with the furry friends in our community and further expand my experience and knowledge on each and every pet baby out there because as a fellow pet parent I would want my baby in the best hands as well❤️ I’m home all week and not only have the space and time but as well as the joy of caring for a new furry friend! At home my doggo sleeps in my room and plays in the yard most of the day, she has a crate in the garage where she has access to for naps throughout the day and gets fed once in the morning and before bed an hour after her daily evening walk. Depending on what the owner’s needs are for their pets I can easily adjust my routine or schedule to better match their furry babies👍🏽 We’re very flexible with our routines and schedules and love to switch things up!😊
“Estefany was a fantastic dog sitter to my pup Ella! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very nice and easy going. She was also super flexible as I shifted the dates & times a few times. Ella had a great time with her pups Zoey & Bella. Would highly recommend to all fellow pet owners!”

“Ollie loved staying with Christienne! It’s an amazing location and my pup loved the fresh air and open space. I’m assuming that because he had me drop the windows so he could sniff as we left the house.”

“Out Dog Buddy is always excited to go see Sarah and Jamey C and their pets and daughter. When we pick him up he is happy, excited and very well taken care of. As long as Sarah is doing dog sitting/boarding, we will be using her. She takes excellent care and love of our dog.”


“Lauren and her family looked after Scampi as their own. He was relaxed and seemed too relaxed to come home. He was not in a hurry! I will recommend Lauren and with past experiences I will give her A+! Thanks again Lauren.”

“Morgan was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winston! From the moment we picked him up, he looked happy, healthy, and so well cared for. It was clear that Morgan and her family treated him with genuine love and kindness, and that gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond by sending beautiful pictures and even thoughtful gifts home with Winston—the frame, photos, and toys were such a sweet surprise and truly meant a lot to us. You can tell Morgan is a true animal lover who cares deeply about the pets she watches. We are incredibly grateful for the attention, warmth, and exceptional care she provided. We will absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Amanda took very good care of my two furbabies while I was out of town. She kept in touch with me throughout my time away & provided snap shots so I could ssee them enjoying their break from me!! Easy drop off & pick up experience.”


“Natalie and the rest of her family apparently took exceptional care of our Sasha!. She also sent us pictures of Sasha!, integrated with her family, everyday. She came back with energy and very clean. Sometimes our Sasha! comes home from other kenneling locations unkempt, moist, smelling of urine, and seemingly spooked from the experience. No thank you. We will use Natalie again for kenneling our Sasha!”

“Alessandra was so great! I was super nervous using this app for the first time, but feel truly lucky and blessed having found Alessandra! Upon meeting her, I was super comfortable and I felt as though I was leaving my dog in the care of a good friend or trusted family member. She was very attentive and communicative, I appreciated all the updates and photos while I was away. I have nothing but good things to say, and absolutely recommend her! She will def be my go-to dog sitter! She’s the best!”
