“Wenchi was amazing with Raya! She sent regular updates with pictures and gave her the best treats. She was really flexible with us as well. We got married and she was willing come to the venue to pick her up directly after the ceremony! It was a seamless pick up. And the she was willing to drop her off to us in a farther location. We even changed the location a few times, and she was willing and happy to. We are so happy with her communication and taking such good care of Raya. Highly recommend!!”
“Jessie has become Edward’s home away from home. He’s very comfortable with her and always happy to see her. She’s very observant about changes in his behavior and is very caring and patient with him. He’s so much happier staying with her than in a boarding kennel.”
“Kirsten was great!! She was kind and communicative by sending me pics/vids with updates and was very reassuring as it was my first time having my boy away from home. I would definitely trust her to watch him again, 10/10”
“Achara took care of my little man for a couple days when I went out of town. She sent me updates throughout his stay, with pictures. It seemed like he had a great stay with her family and their dogs. I appreciate everything Achara did for me and the little pup!”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“We have used Marya a few time for daycare. This is the first time we've had to leave town for a few days and Mochi has ever done boarding. He came home happy and healthy as usual.”
“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!”
About: We’re experienced Rover users ourselves, so we understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pet. After recently losing our German Shepherd, Ace, due to old age, we’ve been missing the joy of having more dogs around, and our lab, Indie, would love a playmate. We have a home with a secure yard and are excited to offer a safe, loving environment for dogs while their owners travel or need extra support. We treat every dog like family, with plenty of attention, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. Whether your pup is energetic or prefers a slower pace, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and at home. For everyone’s safety and happiness, dogs must get along well with Indie, and we require a meet-and-greet before booking. I am a nurse in Davis and my wife works from home which allows for flexibility throughout the day. We stay pretty scheduled but have the availability to cater to our dogs needs! We have a fully fenced yard with a friendly lab. We love being outside and going for walks in west Davis. Since we used to have 2 dogs we are familiar with leash safety and navigating other dogs on walks.
“Roy was incredible. 5 stars isn't enough! I panicked when our dog sitter cancelled the morning we were supposed to leave for our family vacation but luckily we found Roy. Our dog can be a bit of a handful. This was our first time going away and leaving our dog with someone so I was a little nervous but I would leave our dog with Roy any day. I can't even put into words our gratitude.”
“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“My dog was very comfortable at Julissas house and I appreciated the updates throughout the day. I felt at ease leaving him there and will be booking with her again in the future! ?”
“Erica was amazing with my puppy. She made sure and sent me pics n kept me updated so that I knew Kitana was being well taken care of. She was also very flexible with me updating drop of n pick up and even let me extend her stay for another night. I will be using Erica as my permanent pet sitter.”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“Ann is a very caring dog sitter. She took time to get to know our dog when we dropped her off. She sent updates each day we were away from our fur baby. Have always felt comfortable knowing our dogs were in good hands when we traveled. Would always recommend her to anyone looking to have their pet sat for. Thank you again Ann!”
“This was my 1st time booking care for my pet cat. We are having issues with our AC and when I have to be at work and it's 107°, cat needed safe place indoors. Grisel gave me peace of mind from the initial inquiry (daycare and potential overnight boarding) until the last moment saying our goodbyes. I was nervous being new, but she was completely professional, respectful and patient. her helpful relative was also so attentive to my shy babe. Communication was 100% as was the set up and the care. Obviously would return and would recommend!”
“Megan and her family were absolutely fantastic with Shay over the weekend! I really appreciated how communicative Megan was, sending regular updates and photos that put my mind at ease. It's clear they treated Shay like one of their own, and I could tell Shay was happy and well-cared for. I plan to rebook with Megan for my next trip – highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I grew up in a household that always had multiple pets (fish, dogs, hamsters) and have since expanded my love for animals by dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family in the neighborhood. I am offering dog walking, sitting and other pet care services for whatever furry friend you need! I’m excited to get started with Rover and build community connections in Davis! I am currently a UC Davis student looking for a part-time way to make extra money and spend more time outside and with animals! I love going on long walks and hanging out at the dog park, or just entertaining your pet at home. I live in an apartment with an unfenced yard. When I dog sit for friends, I make sure to give regular potty breaks every couple of hours and maintain an environment that is safe and comforting for your pet.

About: My whole life I've had cats, so of course they're my favorite animal! I have 10 years of experience pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and family. I also have extensive experience caring for my own cat with medical needs, and am willing to learn how to care for cats from all backgrounds.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the past 10+ years, including my own animals and multiple repeat clients. I’m experienced with cats who love attention as well as those who prefer space and independence. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets at once and always prioritize keeping your cat safe, relaxed, and comfortable in their own routine and environment ☺️
“Dina is seriously great. This was the first time using a pet sitter for a long trip when I didn’t come home to a messy house because of my cats. My one cat throws up almost daily and Dina was so kind in cleaning up after her in addition to providing all their care and attention needs. Dina was seriously amazing in dealing with my very grumpy old lady cat. Thank you so much for your kindness and professionalism, Dina.”
About: What sets me apart as a cat sitter is my lifelong, hands-on experience with cats in both multi-cat and individual home environments. Growing up in a household with nine cats gave me a strong understanding of different feline personalities, routines, and behaviors. I also currently care for my own 3-year-old cat, which has deepened my experience with daily care, health awareness, and enrichment. I’m especially attentive to each cat’s unique personality and comfort level, whether they’re shy, playful, independent, or social. I prioritize maintaining their normal routine, keeping litter boxes clean, and ensuring they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m also highly communicative and provide updates so you always know how your cat is doing. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience for both cats and their owners, treating every cat as if they were my own.
About: I have always taken care of pets since I was little ranging from cats and dogs to reptiles to any pet not a person that needed to take care of that near me. I only have two in person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays and other than that I am free no other job except school right now :) I have always taken care of my family’s pet, especially my sisters which her house consist of a golden retriever and a poodle and a Chihuahua. The poodle is very very old and she is an elderly dog, so she’s blind and has arthritis and going to deaf, so I was always used to cleaning up and guided her to the restroom or her food and still focusing on the other pets, giving everyone the proper love and care at the exact same time.
“Megan was fantastic with my cat Norman. Norman is a diabetic cat who can be aggressive with strangers when they try to give insulin, so it's often tough to find sitters who can manage him. I was so happy with how patient and compassionate Megan was with him. She was extremely reliable and a great communicator, and was able to make sure he got his insulin on time everyday. I would really highly recommend Megan, you can definitely trust her to take great care of your pet!”
About: I have experience caring for cats with different personalities and needs, and I’m attentive to routines, behavior, and overall well-being. I’m reliable, patient, and good at creating a calm environment, while handling feeding, litter care, and play with consistency and care.
About: I am a loving cat parent to a 2-year-old shorthair rescued from an abusive home. Watching her come to life with patience, love, and treats has been an amazing experience and taught me how to take care of even the shyest, most nervous kitties! Whether you have a cat who needs cuddles, treats, toy time, or plenty of space and understanding, I am here to help make sure your furry friend is well-loved even when you aren't there.
About: Although I’ve never had a cat of my own, I’ve grown up visiting, watching, and caring for cats in my neighborhood! I have extensive experience checking in on and pet-sitting the cats of my neighbors. I’ll treat your cats & kittens like my own, giving them complete, dedicated care and respect. I look forward to meeting and caring for your cats! :)
“Emma did an amazing job. I loved all the photos she sent me, especially the ones where she was giving Atlas cuddles. I felt like I could rely on her and thats all I could ask for! Thank you for caring for my boy”
“Elizabeth looked after my elderly cat while we were away. My cat needs special prescription food for a kidney condition and can be a little frightened of people but she took to Elizabeth. We’re very happy knowing our cats in such good hands when we need to travel.”
About: Though I didn’t grow up with cats, I have multiple friends and neighbors whose cats I love to play with and pet sit. My apartment is comfortable and safe for indoor and outdoor cats, so whatever your pet needs I will be able to provide it!
About: Life long dog lover. Compassionate, patient, will have full conversations with your pet. I enjoy the innocence and enthusiasm for life that dogs bring to humans around them. I grew up always with a dog and am missing the companionship after moving away from home. I currently work part time remotely, so my schedule is pretty flexible, with most scheduling being around my partners days off. Available weekends usually . I live in a pet friends apartment complex with a shared courtyard perfect for bathroom breaks and playing fetch. I believe the environment fits best for small dogs.
“Carmen was super caring and followed all my instructions perfectly! She was very communicative and made sure to clarify instructions when needed. I would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter! My cat Pumpkin loved her and appreciated the many cuddles :)”
“Marissa was wonderful with Winifred while we were away on a long weekend. She communicated while she was dropping by and sent us super sweet photos of Winnie. We came home to a happy cat, thank you so much Marissa!! 😻”

About: Hello, my name is Esmerilda. I graduated from UC Davis with a B.S. in Wildlife, Fish, and Conservation Biology and am in search of dog walking, training, bathing, and pet sitting positions to help me pay off student loans. Aspiring veterinarians usually know they have a special gift with animals as a child, as I discovered at the age of 7. Thus, I have been involved in the husbandry of my own dogs, cats, and exotic animals the majority of my life! Due to my extensive experience as a lab animal technician, kennel attendant, and shelter volunteer, I have 6 years of professional experience in animal husbandry. During the year of the notorious Camp Fire, I worked as a veterinary assistant at the UC Davis Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital to 4th year veterinary students with disabilities during their clinical year. As their "right hand woman", I provided various accommodations for physical and intellectual limitations in order to facilitate their success. I was directly involved with the treatment of animal patients in ophthalmology, cardiology, community practice, community surgery, companion avian and pet exotics, dentistry, dermatology, internal medicine, neurology, shelter medicine & surgery, anesthesia, behavior, and nutrition. For several years, I also gained technical skills as a veterinary assistant in small veterinary hospitals and for the nonprofit Mercer Clinic for the Pets of the Homeless. Thus, I am exceptionally knowledgeable in the field of veterinary medicine. At the client's request, I also offer one on one obedience training on walks, baths, nail trimming, syringe feeding, and transportation to veterinary appointments for an additional charge (not listed). I have committed my 'gap year' before veterinary school to providing my sevices on Rover- ensuring your pet receives the highest quality of care and love while you are away. Please do not hesitate in contacting me so I may meet my new fur (or scaled or feathered) buddy. Thank you for your time and consideration :) ANIMALS ARE MY LIFE. NO, SERIOUSLY! I work full time an animal caretaker unless my calendar is marked as I'm unavailable because I scheduled a vacation to combat caretaker fatigue, I am available, 24 (like Kobe) hours , 7 days a week , rain and shine ! 🌞 I am an observant, vigilant pet owner myself and strive to go above and beyond in maintaining a secure and clean environment for your animal(s) as well. I have experience adhering to strict animal protocols within both veterinary hospital and laboratory settings, thus applying these skills as your animal caretake/technician within your home. Please notify me if your pet is an escape artist, uses a crate, what your boundaries are (i.e. furniture or specific areas off-limits), if your pet uses an e-collar or GPS collar, and the like! As always, your dog gets my full attention—walks are always private and limited to dogs from the same household.
“Ann E. was a great sitter! I had a day-long event for work and reached out to Ann just a few days ahead to take care of my dog, Beau. She was super accommodating and even let me drop my dog off at 6am. Throughout the day, Ann sent me pictures of Beau looking super happy. She also walked him multiple times and gave me written updates on how Beau was doing. Once I picked him up, he was extremely happy and did not exhibit any characteristics of anxiety. I would gladly have Ann take care of my dog again. I would also recommend Ann for any folks looking for a sitter :)”
About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve had my own dogs for many years and grew up around dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. In addition, I did dog sitting for neighbors and families for several years when I was younger, helping with walking, feeding, and daily care. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs that need patience and clear routines, including leash training and behavioral challenges. Dogs are family members to me, and I always treat them with love, structure, and respect. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. I’m very flexible and spend a lot of time at home. I work partly from home and partly in the office, but my schedule allows me to adapt easily to a dog’s needs. Dogs are rarely left alone, and I can adjust my routine to provide plenty of attention, walks, and companionship. Dogs in my care are treated like family. They are allowed to relax freely in my home, including on the couch. I live with two small dogs, so it’s important that visiting dogs are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I do not accept aggressive dogs to ensure a safe and peaceful environment for everyone.
“Alayna agreed to watch my pooch last minute while I attended a conference. She was quick to respond and easy to communicate with. Henry had a fantastic time and was exhausted when I got him back, which was perfect for the ride home. I will definitely reach out again if I’m in Davis and need pet care!”
About: I have lived with pets all my life and have over 6 years of professional experience in all kinds of animals (including but not limited to) birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have 1 green cheek conure, 1 desert tortoise, 2 cats, and 1 dog myself. I can medicate your animals, but also help with training, exercise, grooming, and other enriching or basic husbandry care. I’ve recently moved to Woodland to help my sister with her kids, which leaves me some time for myself but not enough for a full time job. That’s where pet sitting comes in for me. Animal care is an important thing to me, and I love to know I’m helping your pet live their best life. Most pets will be comfortable in their own home so I can make house trips at least twice a day, perhaps more depending on where you are located respective to me. If you’d like me to take your little one into my own home, we can talk about it and go from there :)
About: I have cared for dogs for a year. I have work experience and have had pets since I was very young. My family currently has two dogs, aged 10 and 17. I have lived my whole life surrounded by dogs and cats and I love animals. I enjoy taking care of them, giving them love, and receiving their love in return I would love to work part-time with animals because they give me energy and joy, and I believe it’s a great part of the day to enjoy time with them. I am very careful and loving with animals, especially when they belong to someone else. You can feel confident that I will take care of them exactly as you ask, with responsibility and affection. I can work both by going to the client’s home and by caring for the animals in my own home!
About: I have a lifetime of animal care and knowledge to offer and am an experienced ICU/ER vet tech so am available for special needs cases as well. I have worked with exotics and farm animals as well as dogs and cats. I also offer nail trims, bathing, ear cleaning and medication administration at additional charges. I have experience with hard to work with animals and have experience with dog training and special interest in animal behavior. I have a fairly open availability right now, as I am attending college online. I am available to stay overnight and come with great recommendations. I know pet CPR, and am well trained to care for geriatric or diabetic animals. I wouldn’t want to spend my days with anyone but your little guys!
About: Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. Raised on a farm and on a pre-vet track from a young age, I’ve spent decades caring for animals of all kinds—from house pets to livestock to wildlife. Starting at 14, I volunteered in local vet clinics and wildlife rehab centers, gaining hands-on experience with everything from cats and dogs to peacocks, horses, goats, snakes, fish, birds, and cattle. At UC Davis, I deepened my care skills while working at the world-renowned Vet Hospital, tending to cats and dogs during the swing shift. I also worked with campus goats, pigs, sheep, fish, cattle, and horses—and even fostered cats for the hospital. Now in my 30s, I’m an education professional and dedicated pet mom to both cats and dogs. I continue to care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets with the same compassion, attention, and responsibility that’s guided me my whole life. I’m certified in Cat & Dog CPR & First Aid, and Infant, Child, and Adult CPR/AED/First Aid, and have emergency care experience with animals large and small. I’m calm under pressure, reliable, and always communicate clearly—your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'm currently taking a break from teaching, and being a full-time stay-at-home mama to my 2.5 year old daughter. I have plenty of time to care for your furry family member. Please note that at this time, we are seeking families whose pets are comfortable around toddlers and children. I have a fully fenced yard, and a park just around the corner from my house for those whose furry friends enjoy a stretch, walk, or playtime! I am comfortable using a crate, and we have plenty of floor room in the house (carpet and laminate) for them to lay down if they're not crate trained. We do not allow dogs on the furniture. Cats are allowed to wander the house. We are more than happy to put up child gates to keep your furry family member in certain areas of the house if they're prone to getting into things (such as stuffed animals for the kiddos... I mean really, a lot of doggie toys these days look so similar! I'd understand the misconception. lol) We're not afraid to be firm but kind if your family member needs set boundaries.

About: I have been around pets ever since I can remember and probably had around 10 in my life so far. I’ll be attentive, caring and sweet with your little friends, bringing them the comfort and calm they need when you’re not home ❤️ I’m currently a student at UC Davis with a part-time job, so I will be available for pet sitting every other day normally after 12pm (noon) I can easily find a space in your home where the pet feels more at comfort and I’ll act quickly and proactively when I notice something is needed.

About: Extensive experience as a vet tech for over 5 years, experience raising future service dog puppies from 8 weeks old, currently a third year veterinary student, equipped to handle pet emergencies I am working 2 days a week in an emergency pet hospital so I have lots of time outside of those days to spend with your pets!

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my lifelong, hands-on experience with animals in both multi-pet and individual home environments. Growing up in a household with nine cats gave me a strong understanding of different feline personalities, routines, and behaviors. I currently care for my own 3-year-old cat, which has further deepened my experience with daily care, health awareness, and enrichment. In addition to cat care, I also have experience with dogs through pet sitting. As a teenager, I regularly watched my neighbor’s dogs, and I have also pet sat and house sat for family members, caring for both cats and dogs. I’ve also provided overnight care, which taught me how to maintain routines, ensure comfort through the night, and handle responsibilities independently while owners are away. I’m especially attentive to each animal’s unique personality and needs, whether they’re shy, energetic, independent, or social. I prioritize keeping their routines consistent, maintaining clean and comfortable environments, and making sure they feel safe and secure while their owners are gone. I’m also highly communicative and provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a calm, stress-free experience for both pets and owners, treating every animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care throughout the week. During my summer session, I’m available after 2:00 PM on Mondays and Wednesdays, before noon and after 6:00 PM on Tuesdays and Fridays, 11:45 AM–3:00 PM and after 6:00 PM on Thursdays, and I have full availability on Saturdays and Sundays. This flexibility allows me to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and overnight care as needed. I am also available and willing to stay overnight when needed to ensure pets are comfortable and cared for at all times. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize following all instructions closely to maintain their normal routine and comfort. I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes or outdoor breaks, and receive attention, play, and care based on their needs. I respect the client’s home, keep everything clean and secure, and ensure doors, gates, and safety measures are always properly handled. I also provide regular updates so owners feel reassured and connected while they’re away.

About: I grew up around dogs of all kinds, from couch-potato rescues to high-energy working breed. I love seeing all the ways that a dog's personality manifests when they're given the love, structure, and attention they need to thrive! Whether you have a furry friend who needs regular long walks or just lots of attention, I am looking forward to helping you give your pup the life they deserve. I'm currently doing remote work with flexible scheduling, so my hours are available to you whenever you need! With the exception of Thursdays, I am available weekdays and weekends, morning or afternoon or evenings. Let me know how I can help! I always aim to give your pets plenty of time and space to acclimate to a new person in their home! Building trust through treats and positive reinforcement allows us to interact in a low-stress environment and lets me provide them with the best care possible.
About: A former UC Davis graduate. I’ve taken care of dogs all my life. I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who focuses on creating a calm, low-stress experience tailored to each animal’s personality and routine. I’m especially skilled at reading behavior cues, helping shy or anxious pets feel comfortable, and maintaining consistency with feeding, cleaning, and enrichment. My background in structured, fast-paced environments has made me highly organized and reliable, so pet owners can trust that every detail will be handled with care and responsibility I’m currently free during the work week most times of the day. I also have availability on weekends on a need to need basis. I’m ready and willing to spend as much time as your pets need. I wouldn’t be able to take care of pets in my own home but can do whatever is needed in their homes. I am good at providing structured resting time as well as play and can provide support with any trailing being done in the home
About: I have a wide range of dog experience. Puppies, seniors, reactive, and medicated ones. I am fear free certified and have taken many animal classes and animal behavior classes for my animal science major. Outside of a classroom setting I have worked in a shelter where I was a medical volunteer. This required me to work with dogs that I had no insight to a lot of the dog’s background and always stayed aware of their behavior. A lot of the bigger dogs I worked with were abused, abandoned, or injured and having to work with animals that have trauma like that is heartbreaking but also can affect their behavior towards people. That being said I had to work with dogs that were more challenging and more often than not were labeled aggressive but were actually just scared. I have house sat friends and families before and always send an absurd amount of photos to owners of their fur baby (that’s at least what I prefer) and I have no problem communicating any uncertainties, questions, or concerns to an owner. I would rather be safe than sorry always. I do not have a lot of senior care experience but would love to learn. I took care of a few cases where there were medications twice daily but I know there are more extreme senior care situations I won’t pretend to know how to do but I am eager to do my research and learn from the owner! Fairly flexible. I am a full time student at UC Davis but I have a schedule that can accommodate a lot of needs. The only thing I have no power over is when I have my finals but I will be on top of my calendar and availability I take the better safe than sorry approach when caring for any pet whether it is someone else’s or my own. I will do my research on something I am unsure about which is the reason I have learned so much about my own pet’s compromised immune system. This is why I will not be housing any pets myself but I have practiced many different bio security measures and feel confident all animals will be safe and happy. I am a big communicator and if I have concerns questions or uncertainties I will not hesitate to just ask.
About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets, including senior pets and those with special needs, including diabetes care. I’m always happy to tailor my approach so your pet gets the exact care, attention, and routine they’re used to. As someone with pets of my own, I have a good chunk of time carved out specifically for animal care. I would love to spend my spare time with other pets while their families are away. I am committed to providing personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule with feedings, fresh water, walks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and their routine consistent to minimize any stress while you're away.
About: I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Insects, reptiles, rats, especially cats and dogs. I’ve also volunteered at the ASPCA for a year! I have experience with almost all animals, and I’d love to help take care of yours! I take care of two pets of my own, but currently don’t have a stable job. My days are open! Might as well do what I love and get payed for it. XD I have a calm smaller dog, and a cat who LOVES dogs (she’s strange I know). I live right next to a huge park and walking trail.
About: Hi! I'm Caroline, and I'm currently a sophomore at UC Santa Barbara who will be home in Davis over the summer! I've grown up with 2 dogs, but I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog loves long walks, energetic playtime, or just to relax, I’m happy to match their vibe and make them feel safe and cared for. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages. I’m also comfortable following specific routines, administering basic medications, and handling multiple pets. My goal is to make your pet feel at home, even when you’re away :) I’d love to meet you and your pet, please feel free to reach out with any questions! As a college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I’m typically available for morning and evening visits and I can accommodate weekend bookings as well. I do my best to keep my calendar up to date and am happy to work around your pet’s routine whenever possible. Whether you need regular walks, check-ins, or extra playtime, please feel free to reach out—I’ll always try to make it work! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel secure and cared for at all times. I always follow owner instructions closely, and will update you daily. I create a calm, positive environment where pets can feel relaxed and at ease. During walks and visits, I stay mindful of surroundings to ensure your pet stays safe. I’m also extremely respectful of your home and your pet's space, and will treat it with the same care and responsibility as my own :)
“Highly recommend Brooke! She is punctual, attentive and flexible with requests. But most of all, genuinely cares for Happy and happy to go the extra mile if needed. You will not be disappointed!”
About: I raised my doggo teddy since he was 7 weeks old, he will be 5 in December of 2025 :) Sherpa was also a rather energetic senior, I fostered and took care of until he passed to doggy heaven. Friends and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, administer medication, and house their pets since I was a teen. I’m also experienced with caring for senior dogs and keeping up with playful puppies. In regards to medication, I have given dogs eye drops, inhalers, dealt with difficult doggos that don't even want to take medicine in pill pockets. I will be sure to give your dog medicine. On another note I will not be taking your dogs to dog parks anything can occur as there are dogs of various temperaments. Dogs will not be off-leash when being walked and while walking, I tend to avoid people or other dog interactions to maintain safety, regardless of how sweet or kind your dog or the other dogs are. Safety first always! :) Aside from that I will always throw frisbees, toys, and even tustle with overly energetic puppies/dogs in your home/backyard if thats how they like to have fun. A tired dog is a happy dog! I will likely be in the house most of the time if your dog has separation anxiety. At the present moment I have thankfully only 2 classes and 1 only class I am taking, so I would be returning within the house. Moreoever, as I am studying for the MCAT scary I prefer to be a recluse at the house with your pups or kitties of course. Yayyy :) Your dog will be cared for in a secure and welcoming environment. My fenced yard offers plenty of space for safe playtime, and I’m also located near several trails, perfect for outdoor walks and adventures. My two friendly dogs can provide companionship if your pup enjoys socializing, and if crating is part of their routine, I can accommodate that to ensure they feel comfortable and at ease.
“It is so heartening to know that the pups were getting some quality time out of the house while we’re away. Thanks Carmen for your professionalism, it is plain the dogs enjoyed the company! Paul”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life. I had a chihuahua and boxer. I began walking and sitting dogs fall quarter 2025 and I have experience caring for pets of different sizes and personalities. I also adopted a kitten a year ago and I would love the opportunity to care for them as well. During the summer I am taking courses online that are self paced. This makes my availability to care for your pets very flexible. When it comes to walks in the summer I prefer early mornings to protect their paws. I really do love animals and I would always treat your pet as if it was my own. I always try to keep pets comfortable by sticking to the routine they’re used to and the one that has been communicated to me. To ensure the owners comfort I always send update messages and photos.

About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I could remember. I have experience with bathing dogs who get exited or like to jump around. I also have experience administering medications or flea treatments to animals. I’m also familiar with nail care which I do to my own animals monthly. Currently i’m taking on new clients and I have an open schedule for 7 days a week. I have availability for mornings, afternoons and nights. I have a very big open field across my house that would be great for walks and running around. I live in an apartment so I don’t have a fenced in area but I have a patio.

“Jessie has become Edward’s home away from home. He’s very comfortable with her and always happy to see her. She’s very observant about changes in his behavior and is very caring and patient with him. He’s so much happier staying with her than in a boarding kennel.”
“Kirsten was great!! She was kind and communicative by sending me pics/vids with updates and was very reassuring as it was my first time having my boy away from home. I would definitely trust her to watch him again, 10/10”
“Achara took care of my little man for a couple days when I went out of town. She sent me updates throughout his stay, with pictures. It seemed like he had a great stay with her family and their dogs. I appreciate everything Achara did for me and the little pup!”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“We have used Marya a few time for daycare. This is the first time we've had to leave town for a few days and Mochi has ever done boarding. He came home happy and healthy as usual.”
About: We’re experienced Rover users ourselves, so we understand how important it is to find someone you truly trust with your pet. After recently losing our German Shepherd, Ace, due to old age, we’ve been missing the joy of having more dogs around, and our lab, Indie, would love a playmate. We have a home with a secure yard and are excited to offer a safe, loving environment for dogs while their owners travel or need extra support. We treat every dog like family, with plenty of attention, playtime, and care tailored to their needs. Whether your pup is energetic or prefers a slower pace, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and at home. For everyone’s safety and happiness, dogs must get along well with Indie, and we require a meet-and-greet before booking. I am a nurse in Davis and my wife works from home which allows for flexibility throughout the day. We stay pretty scheduled but have the availability to cater to our dogs needs! We have a fully fenced yard with a friendly lab. We love being outside and going for walks in west Davis. Since we used to have 2 dogs we are familiar with leash safety and navigating other dogs on walks.
“Roy was incredible. 5 stars isn't enough! I panicked when our dog sitter cancelled the morning we were supposed to leave for our family vacation but luckily we found Roy. Our dog can be a bit of a handful. This was our first time going away and leaving our dog with someone so I was a little nervous but I would leave our dog with Roy any day. I can't even put into words our gratitude.”
“Reginay is an amazing person!! She looked after my dog very well and she was able to share a lot of pictures and kept me up to date on how my dog was doing through the whole booking. I would highly recommend her to anyone using this app. She goes above and beyond for our pets!!!”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“This was my 1st time booking care for my pet cat. We are having issues with our AC and when I have to be at work and it's 107°, cat needed safe place indoors. Grisel gave me peace of mind from the initial inquiry (daycare and potential overnight boarding) until the last moment saying our goodbyes. I was nervous being new, but she was completely professional, respectful and patient. her helpful relative was also so attentive to my shy babe. Communication was 100% as was the set up and the care. Obviously would return and would recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a teenager. I grew up in a household that always had multiple pets (fish, dogs, hamsters) and have since expanded my love for animals by dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family in the neighborhood. I am offering dog walking, sitting and other pet care services for whatever furry friend you need! I’m excited to get started with Rover and build community connections in Davis! I am currently a UC Davis student looking for a part-time way to make extra money and spend more time outside and with animals! I love going on long walks and hanging out at the dog park, or just entertaining your pet at home. I live in an apartment with an unfenced yard. When I dog sit for friends, I make sure to give regular potty breaks every couple of hours and maintain an environment that is safe and comforting for your pet.
“Kathleen took great care of my cat while I was away. She kept me updated on her and made sure to spend lots of time with her. Definitely will be booking with Kathleen next time I’m away!”
“Brandee was amazing with my labradoodle. He had lots of time outside and play with other dogs. I loved getting photos and updates every afternoon. Will definitely rebook for the next time!”
About: I have lived with pets all my life and have over 6 years of professional experience in all kinds of animals (including but not limited to) birds, reptiles, and amphibians. I have 1 green cheek conure, 1 desert tortoise, 2 cats, and 1 dog myself. I can medicate your animals, but also help with training, exercise, grooming, and other enriching or basic husbandry care. I’ve recently moved to Woodland to help my sister with her kids, which leaves me some time for myself but not enough for a full time job. That’s where pet sitting comes in for me. Animal care is an important thing to me, and I love to know I’m helping your pet live their best life. Most pets will be comfortable in their own home so I can make house trips at least twice a day, perhaps more depending on where you are located respective to me. If you’d like me to take your little one into my own home, we can talk about it and go from there :)
“Booking our pups stay with Chelsi was the best. Chelsi went above and beyond to cater to Gracie’s needs and made sure she was comfortable & followed her routine. She shared photos and videos with us constantly & we were able to feel so comforted seeing our Gracie girl so happy and so loved. 10/10 experience and we cannot wait to book with Chelsi again!”
