“We were apprehensive as Luna is only 7 months old and has never been apart from us, but Sabrina reassured us she would be fine. She asked all the right questions (feeding, bathroom, sleeping routines) and told us we would get regular updates. Just as promised we got messages, photos and videos of Luna and her walks and meeting all the animals on the farm. When we collected her, it was clear that she had been loved and cared for the entire time we were away, and Luna would have been happy to stay. We won’t use another sitting service again, and would recommend Sabrina in a heartbeat. Thank you Sabrina”
“Denise and her girls were fantastic with my pup Archie. She kept me updated everyday with pictures and videos! She even made homemade treats with her girls for Archie. He got to take a bag home. So happy with Denise, I will definitely be leaving Archie with her again.”
“Gina was great in taking care of my puppy during a heatwave with temperatures of 110! She provided frequent early morning walks , playtimes. Maddy and I were very comfortable with her care.Thanks! Mary”
“When we arrived our dog ran right up to Linda and was immediately comfortable with her. She is definitely a dog person. She sent us updates each day and our dog was a happy camper when we picked her up. Thanks Linda!”
“Lisette was PERFECT for our dog. She understood the importance of a good “fit” and our beagle had an amazing time out on her property. I felt safe leaving my dog with her. I would highly recommend Lisette to anyone needing a competent lady to watch a loved pet.”
About: I’ve raised puppies, kittens, baby birds, chickens and various other animals, I’ve also had experience working on a dog farm and groomed various types of breeds. I’m available for part-time work and am flexible when it comes to scheduling. I am open to working Monday-Sun as long as it’s planned at least a week in advance. I have a fenced large yard with two separate deck areas, I am open to bringing the pets over and housing them or going to a clients house and pet sitting, walking or even bathing if needed in a comfortable and familiar place for the pet.
“Ms Sylvia was very attentive with my little girl, providing me feedback while I was out of town. She left a great impression and I would trust her 100% to board Daisy again.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of various breeds my whole life. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk as well as feed and water their pets. I have a dog (Duke) and cat (Domino) of my own and am overall well experienced. I have plenty of time to take care of and hangout with your dog(s) and or cat(s)! My availability on the calendar is always updated! I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I have a dog who I love more than anything. I make sure he is well exercised, loved, cared for, and kept well groomed and I will make sure to do the same for yours!
“Gabrielle was amazing with our dog, Tucker! This was our first time using Rover, and she immediately put us at ease. She sent us daily photos and videos, which we absolutely loved and looked forward to every day. Her mom was visiting during Tucker’s stay and also helped care for him, which gave us even more peace of mind. Tucker had such a great time playing with Gabrielle’s dog and came home happy and well cared for. It’s obvious that Gabrielle truly loves animals and treats them like family. I highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter… although selfishly, I almost don’t want to recommend her because I don’t want her to get too busy with other dogs!”
About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life, and pets have always been cherished members of my family. Over the years, we've lovingly cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, and guinea pigs, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. As a proud grandma with lots of energy, I understand that every pet deserves love, patience, and individual attention. Whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, keeping a regular feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. Since I'm retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Daily walks are already part of my routine, so having a furry friend join me makes them even more enjoyable! I live in a quiet, safe, gated community that's perfect for relaxing walks and exploring new sights and smells. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic stroll, a leisurely walk, or simply spending time with someone who loves animals, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my day. Your dog's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I'll treat them like family, giving them lots of love, attention, and affection while they're in my care. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and be part of the family. I also have a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, fresh air, and play. I follow each pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel at ease and give them the individual attention they deserve. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, loving environment where your pet feels right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're being cared for like one of my own.
“Sherryl was fantastic. She is very compassionate, knowledgeable and competent when it comes to pet care. Her home is paradise for animals, and you can tell she loves all animals dearly. Highest recommendation to her and her services”
About: I have had dogs and puppies many times in the past years so I am familiar with the needs of older dogs and puppies. I enjoy walking and taking walks with your dog. I am retired, living in the foothills of Jackson. I can be available to travel to your home, stay in your guest room, and hang out with your pets, or take your small pet at my home. When dogs and I walk I enjoy getting to know the surrounding area. Many times a neighbor will talk to me when we are on our walks! I am retired. Since I am available to travel to your home and stay there with your pets while I enjoy them and the time spent reading and visiting local attractions. Should you wish to use my home for care, I am home a lot while going out for a couple of hours at a time for my social meetings and such. I appreciate that much of the time I spend will be at your home with your pets. If I go out they will be wherever you leave them when you go to work or play. I always make sure they are safe and that I return in time for walks, their next meal and shared evening and sleep routine time.
“Emily and Sean are great! We always boarded our lab at our vet when we couldn't take him with us. A friend of ours told us about Rover and then I saw Emily's posting. Both her and Sean are nice, easy dog people. But also, they were professional and super on top of caring for Bruno. I am very happy to have found them!”
“Rachele was fantastic! My dog was very comfortable with her and came home tired after hiking and running with Rachele. I will use Rachele any time I have to leave my pup. She is a home away from home for her!”
About: I have always been in love with animals, and so from a young age I have always been the one to help a person babysit there fur babies if needed, and what better way to spend time making money, taking care of different amazing animals. It brings me pure joy!:) I am pretty flexible and could do it any day of the week, but I prefer not to do over nights unless you are gone for long periods of time. I always make sure that other peoples pets are comfortable with me, and have everything that they need, and more. One on one time with the animals are also important to me as the bond clicks faster. I will always make sure everyone’s animals are 100% being taken of with only the best care! And loved!!!!

Our seniors are loved and cared for savoring every last day. We have a ranch with plenty of room for your fur baby to run and explore as well as a huge dog run. We offer different places to keep them safe if running off leash is not the best for your baby. I am a self-employed realtor, who works from home. My husband is a rancher and contractor so one of us is typically home there are times of course when we leave but everybody is locked up safe and sound and they are also welcome to take the car ride with us should we need to run some errands. if it’s important that nobody ever leaves your baby, we can make that accommodation as well.

We have a fenced in deck that is 30 x 50 so there are many opportunities for your baby to be outside in the fresh air And still be safe. If your dog is an inside dog, we will keep him inside with us and he will be warm and cozy at bedtime.

“Karen was wonderful with our girls. One of them usually hides when new people are in the home, but with Karen she quickly became comfortable! We are very thankful for Karen and knew our girls were in excellent hands while we were gone.”
“Not only did we have the comfort of knowing our girls were being cared for, we also came home after a long drive to a clean house and fresh sheets and towels. Elora goes above and beyond.”
“Brooke did a great job administering medication for our cat and providing us tips. She's calm, gentle, and knowledgeable. The booking and communication back and forth with Brooke was easy.”
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats, providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. With dogs, I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, daily walks, exercise routines, basic training reinforcement, and administering medications when needed. I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive interaction to keep dogs happy and well-behaved. For cats, I’m experienced in maintaining clean litter boxes, feeding routines, grooming, and creating a calm, stress-free environment—especially for more independent or shy personalities. I pay close attention to behavior and health cues in both dogs and cats, ensuring any changes are noticed early. Above all, I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in caring, capable hands. I currently live and work full-time for Amador County. Outside of my 9-5 Mon thru Fri county work I am available for house and pet sits. I prefer to pet sit in clients homes, feeling that as little change as possible in a pets environment can reduce stress and separation anxiety.
“Celia went above and beyond doing a few overnight stays taking care of my senior cat. She is a joy to be around and also cooked us a meal for when we got home. Thank you so much, you are appreciated!”
“I was very nervous leaving my kitty for the 1st time. Charlene came over and met with us and I made me feel very comfortable and less nervous. My kitty is very shy around new people but she seemed to take to Charlene very well. Charlene took really good care of her and sent me regular updates and photos of her so I was able to enjoy my vacation and worry less. I would definitely recommend Charlene and will use her services again if I need to travel again in the future.”
About: While the 4 cats in my home do not belong to me, but my mother, I have helped many times with litterbox, and cutting nails. While I do not have experience with more special things, like administering medication or bathing, I am more than willing to sit with your baby, make sure they are safe and dont get into any trouble around your home. I adore cats just as much as dogs, and I love playing with them. If you need a sitter to just make sure their litterbox is cleaned and they are fed and watered, I'm your guy.
“Shileen is excellent. It was quite obvious that our German Shepherd got attached to her quickly. Since she has two dogs of her own, she related to Gabby in no time at all. She played catch with her, walked around the properly with her, and updated us with photos daily. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog under her care. I will be requesting her dog sitting services again.”
“We recently moved to the area and were in need of someone to care for our senior cat. We found Linda and we are so glad we did! She is kind and professional and she takes her job seriously. She took great care of our kitty and even sent us pictures of a kitty that hangs around our property. We are happy knowing we have Linda for any cat care needs in the future.”
About: I grew up on a ranch, so I have extensive experience with all types of birds, horses, goats, cats, and dogs. I’ve house/pet sit for family and friends over the years. I have one fur baby of my own that stays with my parents when I’m not home. Dogs are the sweetest animals to walk this earth, change my mind. I work three days a week traveling, so I typically have 4 days a week available. Can travel in the Calaveras and Tuolumne county areas. My schedule give me the flexibility to check in with your pet throughout the day. Unfortunately, I don’t offer pet sitting for my house as I live with friends. I’m happy to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home/ safe space. I am ever vigilant on walks and take into account things like daily temperature when scheduling or planning walks/outings.
About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.
“My experience having Autumn catsit has been terrific. Great communication and reliability. And she really seems to care about the little monster she is caring for. Highly recommended!!”
About: I’ve lived with a variety of cats of different ages, energy levels, and personalities. I have experience with female cats in heat, newborn kittens, and cats with medical needs. A favorite experience of mine was fostering and finding homes for 5 tiny kittens from a local shelter in 2022. I love getting to know each new cat I meet and giving them the best care possible.
About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities since I was young, growing up on a farm surrounded by animals. I understand that cats need patience, a calm environment, and consistent care to feel safe and comfortable. I provide a peaceful, low-stress setting where your cat can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to feeding routines, litter box cleanliness, and behavior changes, and I take the time to build trust with each cat at their own pace. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I adjust my care to fit their needs. My goal is to make sure your cat feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away so you don’t have to worry.
“Sabrina did a great job caring for my cats! My timid cat that hides from everyone spent time with her so that says a lot about how great she is with animals. Definitely recommend her services”
“I couldn't be happier with Jef and his time spent with my dog - Jax was clearly happy and content when we got home from our trip. Jef was responsive, flexible when I changed things up a bit, and I absolutely recommend him to other pet owners. I'll be contacting him next time we head out without our pup.”

“Very impressed how Linda treated Oscar my Maltese with full attention that made my husband and I feel good about leaving Oscar. Now we don’t need to worry the next time we go for a long vacation. We finally found someone we fully trust and take care of our baby like family. My dog also learned how to ring the bell when he needs to go out. Linda doesn’t only took care of our Oscar but also trained him something he can do that we were not aware about . Kudos to Linda.”
About: Between growing up with cats and dogs, a parrot, horses, rabbits, and a tortoise, working with dogs in 4-H, showing my dog at the fair in the highest level of obedience, loving and caring for puppies, senior, blind, and deaf dogs, pet sitting for my neighbors and community members growing up, and working with clients through Rover doing drop in visits for walks, play time, feeds, and overnight house sits as well, I've become a well rounded animal caretaker and lover. Back at home after 9 months of traveling Asia, I am currently a free bird when it comes to scheduling, so please reach out with any requests for assistance meeting your pet care needs. With much TLC, tender loving care is how I care for pets. Additionally, I love for animals to be outside and so do I. My old dog and I used to go on so many hikes and swim in all of the creeks, having so much fun playing in the mountains. Despite enjoying dogs free of leashes, when I am walking dogs, I like to walk them on-leash as risk management to prevent unpredictable bad situations from arising.
About: Hi, I grew up around several different animals of all sizes from rodents/reptiles to livestock/dogs. I have always had at least one dog in my life at all times. The more the merrier. I love all animals big and small. I worked at a kennel where I learned about boarding and training dogs for about a year and I have pet sat for about 15 years in grand total. I currently work at a pet store in Sutter Creek. I love being around dogs and training or even just hanging out and playing. I am a outdoorsy person. I have experience with livestock animals also. Horses, cattle, chickens, Lhamas, mini animals, donkeys. I have references also if you would like them. Our home is completely fenced and sits on 3 acres. We have two friendly german shepherds. I work part time so some days I am gone at work. But our 17 year old daughter is always home. We also go to church Sunday morning so we would be gone for a couple hours but otherwise we are always home. I care for pets in my home as I would my own. I have 3 German Shepherds. 10 months to 7 years old. As for in home pet sitting I would follow whatever routine you have set for your fur babies already so it would be easier on them.
“Excellent! Tallulah was out like a light for the rest of the evening. Sabrina was very caring and kept me posted all day. Her visits will definitely be a regular thing. ❤️”
“This was my first time using ROVER.and am completely satisfied!! We arrived at our hotel and learned that while it is pet friendly you can’t leave your animal unattended. We had planned two days of motorcycle riding and having him ride in front of me was not an option. In a panic I downloaded Rover from the App Store and found Michele!! The entire family was AMAZING!! Their dog CC made Moultrie feel at home. In fact he had such a great time the first day that he bounded into the house the next morning! THANK YOU for everything!! Jessica”

“Emily watched my dog Prince while my family and I went to the lake at Twain Harte. She was amazing! The original time I had proposed didn't work, but she was very accommodating for a later drop off time. Thanks to her my family and I were able to go to the lake (where there are no dog allowed), and I had peace of mind the whole time. Thank you, Emily!”
“Elizabeth was great with my Sammy. Her chill and gentle nature was just what Sammy needed. The huge backyard was a big bonus, offering lots of area to play fetch and sprawl out in the sun. One thing to note, even though Elizabeth does not own a cat there is a cat in the home. The cat was kept behind a closed door and extra protected with a gate so there were no issues, but just sharing that detail as a heads up. Thanks Elizabeth!”

About: As an animal lover and caretaker over the past 40 years, I have experience raising dogs through all ages of life from puppies to seniors & deaf dogs, as well as cats, and farm animals. This love for animals began even before I was a high school 4-H and FFA student working with large farm animals, growing up with cats and dogs. As a pet-sitter for others, I have cared for many kinds of animals in addition to cats and dogs. I was the Dog Leader for the Murphys 4-H for 7 years and assisted the kids in training their dogs to show at the fair. While I have experience training animals, I also love to offer them tender loving care, spending quality time with them, and being their friend. It is important to me that dogs and humans both enjoy play and joy in their days, so I am happy to offer this for your pets when you cannot be there. I currently have a very open schedule, so I am most available to meet your pet care needs. Reach out to schedule a meet and greet at your convenience. When caring for pets as a sitter, I respect both your space and your pets. While I am walking others' dogs, I feel best with on-leash walks, and I will clean up after them. I also always provide animals with fresh clean water during my visits and routine caretaking. I like to keep the home and pets clean, safe, and comfortable while you are away.
About: I have been owned by cats and dogs in the past. I recently transferred with my job from the East Coast to Utah, and now reside in Northern California and currently frequent the Humane Society to visit with the cats and dogs waiting for homes. Pet Sitting - I am able to walk them/feed in the mornings and after 5 p.m. Monday-Wednesday and Thursday - Sundays more frequently. I do prefer overnight pet sitting. I am reliable, responsible and have a "knack" with most pets. I do need to know about any behavioral issues (likes to chew on things that aren't their toys for example). Do they do well with new people? I prefer not to sit pit bull terriers, but mixed breeds I don't have a problem with.

“Chelsea is great! She responds quickly, shows up on time, is flexible, and has worked with me to address my dog’s needs. My dog takes a while to warm up to people, but she felt comfortable with Chelsea almost immediately and I did as well. If you are in the Jackson area I highly recommend Chelsea as a dog walker.”
About: I grew up around dogs when I was younger. About 9 years ago, my kids and I started taking care of friends, and family members, dogs when they go out of town...feeding, walking, letting outside, overnights, giving medicine, etc. We started watching dogs through Rover so my children would gain experience with other puppies and dogs. My kids have done so well caring for others' dogs that I decided they were ready to have a puppy of their own. We welcomed Snowball into our family on 12-18-2021. Snowball has all his shots (NOT neutered) and is ready to make new friends. He has gotten along with all the dogs we've watched on Rover and when meeting other dogs while on walks. My children and I would love to care for your puppy/dog and treat them with love and kindness during their stay with us. We're also available for drop-in visits at your home. Overnights: Friday evenings and Saturdays all day/night. Pick-ups on Sundays are ok. No overnights during the week, unless specified on our calendar. Drop-ins and walks: please message me for availability. Also available certain holidays. Looking forward to caring for your pup. These are a few things about safety in our home while caring for your pup: - We have a fenced in back yard to keep your pup safe while outside. - I can assure you that we will never feed human food to any pup. - We do not allow pups to sleep in the bed with us. Please bring a play-pen or crate for your fur baby to sleep in at night for his/her safety. - We are willing to accommodate requests such as "please don't let my pup on the couch." Just ask and we'll do our best to meet all your pet care needs.
About: I was raised on a ranch with all kinds of pets. I can't recall life without dogs we are so fortunate to have them in our lives they are unconditional in the love and affection they give . I was in dog rescue for 21 years as a foster. I had 7 dogs all were what was considered not able to be put in a home do to behavior issues the only option for these dogs was to be euthanized so I kept the rejects and had to stop rescue as to the inn was full and I still dog sat for the dogs that had been at my home until a new home was found . I have extensive experience with all types of dogs . I have a cat who pretends dogs do not exist so she just stays away, my cat was a ferel rescue cat and is now a fat and sassy house cat . I have a large home so have part of it sectioned off where her litter box and food are to keep dogs out of both . If I house sit I have experience with farm animals for feeding. I garden so watering is in my range. I'm home 80% of the time so I'm available. I may run a errand but that's about it . If weather permits and you have a road dog car rides with me are perfect. I spend a lot of my time cooking and blogging I cook for seniors in my community. If I'm gardening outside the dogs are welcome to be with me. I have a double lot so plenty of play room . Half of it is fenced for plenty of play room . I have a crate if needed . Your dog will have free roaming access in my home and allowed on the furniture . If I'm sitting your pet in your home it's your home and your rules that I follow . I have passed my Background check here on Rover to take care of your fur babies. I have passed my 2nd Government Background check to take care of children. I have passed my 3rd Goverment Background check to take care of elders .

About: Hey there I’m Elora :D I was raised with both cats and dogs of all sizes/ages/personalities and have been house sitting for the past 5 years as a side gig. I am new to Rover trying to expand my clientele! When pet sitting, I aim to stay as close to your dog's schedule as possible, and spend every free moment I have with your animals at home! I love walking around local parks and sending photos of our adventures! House sitting extends beyond just caring for the pets so I also bring in mail, take out trash, water plants, etc. I’m a recent college grad looking to spend my time taking care of animals, as this brings me the most joy. I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment, so rest assured your animals will be spoiled. I am available weekdays, weekends, and holidays! I have my own car providing easy and reliable transportation to your home, grooming appts, and emergency vet visits if needed. I have the utmost respect for your home and privacy. I will always leave your home looking better than how I found it. Punctuality and communication are my key pillars.
About: I grew up on a ranch, so I have extensive experience with all types of birds, horses, goats, cats, and dogs. I’ve house/pet sit for family and friends over the years. I have one fur baby of my own that stays with my parents when I’m not home. Dogs are the sweetest animals to walk this earth, change my mind. I work three days a week traveling, so I typically have 4 days a week available. Can travel in the Calaveras and Tuolumne county areas. My schedule give me the flexibility to check in with your pet throughout the day. Unfortunately, I don’t offer pet sitting for my house as I live with friends. I’m happy to take care of your pet in the comfort of their own home/ safe space. I am ever vigilant on walks and take into account things like daily temperature when scheduling or planning walks/outings.

I am KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) and UW-AAB (University of Washington Applied Animal Behavior) certified. *Some insurance companies cover training and behavior modification costs because of my credentials (UW-AAB & KPA-CTP).

About: My own dog, Zeus, who was a German Shepard, had developed hip dysplasia in his elder years. He passed in 2024 but in his last years of life I learned to properly administer his two medications, and was able to trick him into taking them when he was stubborn, which was all of the time. I cleaned up after him while my parents were away and sat with him when he was anxious, which again, was all of the time. I took him on walks when he was younger and was able to handle his strength. I adore dogs and understand the stress of leaving a special needs dog by themselves. If you need a calm energy for your senior dog, or playfulness for your puppy, I'm your guy. At the moment I am still looking for a full or part time job, so my days and nights are completely open for those who need a sitter. I will care for your dog by first making sure they have their nessecities, food, water, medication, and a bathroom break. If we go on a walk I will make sure their harness and leash are secure, and am willing to walk however long your dog wishes to walk. When we come back to your home I will make sure he is uninjured, no issues with the feet or body if we go to a dog park. I am willing to do anything and everything to ensure the safety and health of a dog.
“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.
About: Enrichment. Walks. Adventure time. With me, you will always have an energetic individual who will go the distance! I go hiking 3+ days out of the week and am a natural pet-lover. This would showcase that I will always have the stamina to walk with your animals. I also keep a tight schedule and vow to always stick to the routines, recommended needs, and other care information that you provide. At the end of the day, a pet is truly a human’s best friend and deserves the best care. I hope you keep me in mind when you need an individual to look after your animal! Only the best care for them. I also have a reactive dog in-training, so I have tons of hands-on experience! Sincerely, Shileen Andico I’m currently working full-time as a teacher, with summers off and breaks during holidays! This leaves me available for all times available for walks, check-ins, etc! Working with a reactive dog, I understand that care and making a dog feel safe is always top priority! I will ensure that your dog will feel comfortable with me.
About: Although I don’t have pets of my own, over the past several years I’ve had the chance to care for a wide variety of dogs of all ages and sizes. I live down the street from some dog friendly hiking trails and my backyard is quite large so the energetic pups are always happy. I am accommodating and love the experiences I have meeting each new pet. A highlight was fostering and finding homes for 5 kittens in 2022! I have a relatively flexible schedule and am willing to travel a reasonable distance, message me for further schedule details- most frequently available on weekends I have a keen attention to detail that can keep too curious pups out of trouble. I love to hear special instructions from the owner about what their pets like!

“We were apprehensive as Luna is only 7 months old and has never been apart from us, but Sabrina reassured us she would be fine. She asked all the right questions (feeding, bathroom, sleeping routines) and told us we would get regular updates. Just as promised we got messages, photos and videos of Luna and her walks and meeting all the animals on the farm. When we collected her, it was clear that she had been loved and cared for the entire time we were away, and Luna would have been happy to stay. We won’t use another sitting service again, and would recommend Sabrina in a heartbeat. Thank you Sabrina”
“Gina was great in taking care of my puppy during a heatwave with temperatures of 110! She provided frequent early morning walks , playtimes. Maddy and I were very comfortable with her care.Thanks! Mary”
“When we arrived our dog ran right up to Linda and was immediately comfortable with her. She is definitely a dog person. She sent us updates each day and our dog was a happy camper when we picked her up. Thanks Linda!”
“Lisette was PERFECT for our dog. She understood the importance of a good “fit” and our beagle had an amazing time out on her property. I felt safe leaving my dog with her. I would highly recommend Lisette to anyone needing a competent lady to watch a loved pet.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats of various breeds my whole life. My family and neighbors have relied on me to walk as well as feed and water their pets. I have a dog (Duke) and cat (Domino) of my own and am overall well experienced. I have plenty of time to take care of and hangout with your dog(s) and or cat(s)! My availability on the calendar is always updated! I love animals and can’t wait to meet yours! I have a dog who I love more than anything. I make sure he is well exercised, loved, cared for, and kept well groomed and I will make sure to do the same for yours!
“Gabrielle was amazing with our dog, Tucker! This was our first time using Rover, and she immediately put us at ease. She sent us daily photos and videos, which we absolutely loved and looked forward to every day. Her mom was visiting during Tucker’s stay and also helped care for him, which gave us even more peace of mind. Tucker had such a great time playing with Gabrielle’s dog and came home happy and well cared for. It’s obvious that Gabrielle truly loves animals and treats them like family. I highly recommend Gabrielle to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter… although selfishly, I almost don’t want to recommend her because I don’t want her to get too busy with other dogs!”
About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life, and pets have always been cherished members of my family. Over the years, we've lovingly cared for dogs, cats, birds, fish, turtles, and guinea pigs, giving me experience with a variety of personalities and care needs. As a proud grandma with lots of energy, I understand that every pet deserves love, patience, and individual attention. Whether it's going for walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, keeping a regular feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pet as if they were my own. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away, so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in caring hands. Since I'm retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. Daily walks are already part of my routine, so having a furry friend join me makes them even more enjoyable! I live in a quiet, safe, gated community that's perfect for relaxing walks and exploring new sights and smells. Whether your dog enjoys an energetic stroll, a leisurely walk, or simply spending time with someone who loves animals, I'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and included in my day. Your dog's safety, happiness, and well-being are always my top priorities. I'll treat them like family, giving them lots of love, attention, and affection while they're in my care. When pets stay in my home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. My home has an open floor plan with plenty of space for pets to relax, play, and be part of the family. I also have a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, fresh air, and play. I follow each pet's regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and plenty of affection. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel at ease and give them the individual attention they deserve. My goal is to provide a calm, clean, loving environment where your pet feels right at home while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're being cared for like one of my own.
“Emily and Sean are great! We always boarded our lab at our vet when we couldn't take him with us. A friend of ours told us about Rover and then I saw Emily's posting. Both her and Sean are nice, easy dog people. But also, they were professional and super on top of caring for Bruno. I am very happy to have found them!”
“Rachele was fantastic! My dog was very comfortable with her and came home tired after hiking and running with Rachele. I will use Rachele any time I have to leave my pup. She is a home away from home for her!”
About: I have always been in love with animals, and so from a young age I have always been the one to help a person babysit there fur babies if needed, and what better way to spend time making money, taking care of different amazing animals. It brings me pure joy!:) I am pretty flexible and could do it any day of the week, but I prefer not to do over nights unless you are gone for long periods of time. I always make sure that other peoples pets are comfortable with me, and have everything that they need, and more. One on one time with the animals are also important to me as the bond clicks faster. I will always make sure everyone’s animals are 100% being taken of with only the best care! And loved!!!!
About: We have had dogs in our home our entire life. They are always a family member and treated with the best of love and care. I come from a family of breeders and a hunting and show dogs. Our seniors are loved and cared for savoring every last day. We have a ranch with plenty of room for your fur baby to run and explore as well as a huge dog run. We offer different places to keep them safe if running off leash is not the best for your baby. I am a self-employed realtor, who works from home. My husband is a rancher and contractor so one of us is typically home there are times of course when we leave but everybody is locked up safe and sound and they are also welcome to take the car ride with us should we need to run some errands. if it’s important that nobody ever leaves your baby, we can make that accommodation as well. We have a 12 x 24 kennel with multiple dog houses we have kennels of different sizes. We also have a barn with 12 x 12 stalls. We have a fenced in deck that is 30 x 50 so there are many opportunities for your baby to be outside in the fresh air And still be safe. If your dog is an inside dog, we will keep him inside with us and he will be warm and cozy at bedtime.
“Elizabeth was a lifesave when I needed someone to watch my Ava last minute. Super kind and friendly she sent me plenty of updates and photos of Ava. I would definitely re book again :) Highly Recommended!”
