“What an amazing experience! Kelsey took such great care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I loved all the photos and regular updates she sent. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Sade was very sweet and patient. We really appreciate being able to go out of town and not worry about Nella being uncomfortable. I would definitely recommend her.”
“Ruby does a great job and communicates well. The pictures and videos sent daily are wonderful. I would recommend Ruby for dog care and we hope to use Ruby’s service again on future needs.”
“Our first time being away from our tiny Yorkie, and Susan and Irv did a great job. When she refused to eat they ended up hand feeding her and wouldn’t rest until they found something she would eat. We will definitely book Susan and Irv for future pet sits.”
“Cedric was awesome and very attentive to my dog Pinchy. His corgi instantly became besties with my dog. We can’t wait to use him again when we go out of town. Thanks a bunch!”
“Alesya was so wonderful with my little dog Eddie! She was so sweet to him! I know Eddie felt so good with her, she treated my little dog as if it were hers. They went on 2 walks a day which Eddie loved! Alesya is a very warm person, she sat with him and comforted him when he got nervous She truly is the best! Fondly, Maureen Bolla”
“Martha made my dog feel super comfortable and at home. She also provided me with daily updates while I was out of the country, multiple times a day. I was very pleased and comfortable that my dog was in her care. Will definitely reach out to her the next time I go on vacation. She is the best sitter my dog has ever had!”
“Charlie had a great time and was very tired coming home after 3 days. It’s so nice to know he is somewhere he enjoys instead of being stuck at home missing us. Looking forward to booking again!”
“Sorry for the late review! This was our third stay with Jacqueline. Once again, our dogs had a great stay. Jacqueline is great with sending pictures so we can see how much fun they’re having. They always look happy. We will definitely be back!”
“As usually Erin did a superb job watching our fur baby! She loves staying at Erin’s and Erin goes above and beyond to take good care of our fur baby while we are away!”
“Melissa took very good care of Chewie. . Melissa sent multiple photos of chewie during her two days stay with her. Chewie looked so happy and relaxed. We are really glad that we found Melissa through Rover. We will certainly use her services again in future.”
“Coco and Jeff were absolutely wonderful with my anxious dog. They had clear communication, were flexible with scheduling and very caring; My dog was more relaxed than she usually is after boarding. Would definitely highly recommend!”
“I cannot express how wonderful Destiny was while taking care of our baby girl Penny! We got daily updates about how Penny was doing which included photos and videos. I could see Penny’s smile in the photos which melted my heart and made me feel that we had picked a perfect sitter. Our Penny is a sweet girl but can take her time to warm up. Luckily, Penny felt comfortable and happy immediately upon our meet and greet. It was obvious Penny would be in good hands. Destiny took Penny on daily walks which was great because Penny has lots of energy! I am thrilled to have found the most wonderful and loving sitter for our Penny. I would recommend Destiny to friends and family and know their fur babies would be just as happy with their stay. Thanks again Destiny! You’re the best!”
“Koda and Sasha stayed with Grant for a week. Koda (lab) settled in right away, Sasha (basset/shepherd mix) took a couple of days, but the pictures tell the story; they appeared pretty happy and tired from playing. Grant is at the top of the list for the next time.”
“I can’t recommend Kazue enough! She takes only one dog (or one family) at a time, which is a huge plus for a dog like Butter who doesn’t do well around other pets/dogs. Kazue updated me with photos and videos at least 3 times a day, which gave me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely have her board Butter again. If you’re looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, Kazue is the one!”
“Jennifer was a pleasure to work with. She was always quick to respond and she sent lots of photos of our boy having fun with her pup. He came home exhausted, that's a good thing! We will certainly use Jennifer again! Thank you again Jennifer!”

About: Been on rover for quite some time now 2018, I am now located in the Plumas Lake area. I am a CPDT but I’m shifting gears slightly and going to school for vet med to be a RVT. Your pets will be in good hands between myself and my wife who has 10 years as RVT. Coffee, let the pups out to potty, prep breakfast, head out for morning gym or appointment. Return by 12. Potty breaks and dog walk or bike ride for Sparta. Landscaping/yard work or In my workshop until sundown. Dogs eat around 5pm Yard is fenced in back and front. I will be able to provide play areas for little and big dogs separately if needed. Meals are typically mornings 7 to 9 and evenings 5 to7. I am able to create different zone for the dog to be in if there is any need for separation. I also have multiple buildings in which to house them and a very large private back yard for them to run.
About: I’m a lifelong cat lover with three cats of my own, so I truly understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur babies. I also foster kittens from time to time, so I have plenty of experience with cats of all ages, temperaments, and needs: including shy adults, playful kittens, and everything in between. I’m comfortable administering medications (oral and topical), and I actually enjoy keeping litter boxes clean and fresh. My goal is to make your cat feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you're away; whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or sticking closely to their routine.
About: I think that cats just might be humans in a little furry disguises. Cats talk to you all day long with their body language. Clearly they will let you know what they want, when they want it and also what they don’t want. Ever have a cat look at you and walk away, L O L. Boss move.
“Christina provided excellent care for our cat while we were on a two week vacation. She left our home in impeccable condition and even put fresh sheets on our bed. She communicated clearly and regularly. She sent pictures of our fur baby while we were away because she knew that we missed him. We highly recommend Christina.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. While living in Australia, I spent two months walking and house sitting an Alaskan Malamute, which taught me a lot about handling large, high-energy dogs with care and confidence. I’ve also walked and cared for dogs belonging to friends and family, so I’m familiar with a variety of breeds and temperaments. On the feline side, I have three rescue cats of my own, all former strays, and I regularly foster kittens, so I’m experienced with cats of all ages; from bottle babies to seniors. I also love visiting cat sanctuaries just to spend time with the kitties. Whether it’s dogs or cats, I’m passionate about giving animals the love, attention, and respect they deserve. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because my schedule is currently wide open. I'm in between career paths right now, which gives me the flexibility and time to fully dedicate myself to the pets I care for. Whether it's early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I can easily adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. This also means I’m available for last-minute bookings and longer stays when needed. Caring for animals brings me a lot of joy, and I love being able to make it a meaningful part of my daily life. When I care for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to ensure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved; just as they would if you were home. During house sitting, I stay in your home and closely follow your pet’s usual routine, whether that includes feeding, medication, walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. I also keep your home clean, secure, and tidy, watering plants if needed, and making sure everything is just as you left it. For drop-in visits, I provide personalized care and attention, including feeding, fresh water, cleaning litter boxes or backyard potty breaks, administering medications when required, and spending quality time playing or cuddling. Whatever your pet needs to feel relaxed and cared for while you're away. When it comes to dog walking, safety is always my number one priority. I use secure harnesses or leashes, avoid busy or high-traffic areas, stay alert to other animals and potential distractions, and tailor each walk to your dog’s pace and energy level. I never walk dogs off-leash and always ensure they’re hydrated and comfortable before and after each outing. Plus, I send regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

I have pet sat for and walked all kinds of animals from cats, dogs, chicken, and even a squirrel. My boyfriend also has a tortoise that I help care for when I go over to his place. This gives me a large range in my experience with different animals. From learning to spot the signes of when they start to feel the need to get aggressive with each other giving me the ability to stop a fight, to giving them love and attention which is something all animals deserve! If taking care of your baby(pet) is something you would allow me to do, I will love, care for, and protect them as if they were my own because it is my goal to insure that both the pet and their owner feels the pet is being well cared for! I can work any day of the week, other than some weekends. And would greatly appreciate a days notice beforehand to prepare and create a plan. I can walk, feed, provide water, pet, play games such as fetch or different games with cats including the Lazer pointer. I will break up any possible alterations by removing the pet from that situation. I can also brush them for dematting their hair or just regular maintenance, and pet the animal to calm them down and insure they feel loved. My gole to insure both the pet and owner feels their baby is well cared for.
“I couldn't be more pleased with Benjamin's exceptional dog walking services. He walked my beloved dog, Ty Chi, for a week twice a day, and the care and attention he provides are truly outstanding. From the very first walk, it was evident that Benjamin has a genuine passion for dogs. He takes the time to understand my dog's unique needs and personality, ensuring that Ty Chi always feels comfortable and happy. Benjamin's care for details is remarkable—he meticulously follows all instructions regarding Ty Chi's specific needs. He even takes the time to update me with photos and notes after each walk, which I greatly appreciate. Punctuality is another one of Benjamin's strengths. He has never missed a scheduled walk and always arrives on time, ready to give Ty Chi the exercise and attention he needs. This reliability gives me peace of mind, knowing that my dog is in capable and trustworthy hands. What truly sets Benjamin apart is his attention to detail. He notices the little things that make a big difference, such as adjusting the leash to ensure Ty Chi's comfort to make the walk even more enjoyable. His thoughtful approach shows how much he cares about the dogs he walks. I highly recommend Benjamin to anyone in need of a dog walker who is not only professional and reliable but also genuinely cares about the well-being of your pet. Ty Chi and I are incredibly grateful for Benjamin's outstanding service and look forward to many more walks together!”

“What an amazing experience! Kelsey took such great care of my dog and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I loved all the photos and regular updates she sent. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring sitter!”

“Cedric was awesome and very attentive to my dog Pinchy. His corgi instantly became besties with my dog. We can’t wait to use him again when we go out of town. Thanks a bunch!”
“Charlie had a great time and was very tired coming home after 3 days. It’s so nice to know he is somewhere he enjoys instead of being stuck at home missing us. Looking forward to booking again!”
“Coco and Jeff were absolutely wonderful with my anxious dog. They had clear communication, were flexible with scheduling and very caring; My dog was more relaxed than she usually is after boarding. Would definitely highly recommend!”
“Koda and Sasha stayed with Grant for a week. Koda (lab) settled in right away, Sasha (basset/shepherd mix) took a couple of days, but the pictures tell the story; they appeared pretty happy and tired from playing. Grant is at the top of the list for the next time.”
“Jennifer was a pleasure to work with. She was always quick to respond and she sent lots of photos of our boy having fun with her pup. He came home exhausted, that's a good thing! We will certainly use Jennifer again! Thank you again Jennifer!”
“She was an awesome sitter . Never had an issue . Sent me photos and updates sometimes before I even messaged to check in on Lani. Lani seemed like she had a real good time. She even had Lani playing ball with her baby and having fun. Thank you Poulette , definetly will return when I need a sitter .”
“Whitney was absolutely amazing. They have a nice house and yard! She took the boys on multiple walks, went to the park to play fetch and sent multiple updates. We love her and her family!”
“Mir was absolutely wonderful, with a gentle yet firm demeanor I knew my German shepherd was in good hands. This was my first time using Rover, I highly recommend Mir!!”
“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”
