“Amy and Justin are fantastic dogsitters. Right away from their meet n greet/interview you can see that they are committed to providing the best, personalize care for your pup. Lots of photos, great communication and details of the stay. Clover seemed to fit right in with their household. She even received a sweet handmade card from their oldest child that said, "I love Clover". 🥹🩷 Will definitely be booking again with them!”
“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter for our 6 month old Kota. The photos and videos and updates daily made being apart while we were on vacation much more enjoyable. This was Kota’s first time away from us and I felt a bit guilty making him come home! Michelle made sure he had fun and got lots of socializing with other pups she was watching. Swimming in the kiddie pool was definitely a highlight! So much playtime meant afternoon naps where he snored. We will definitely be checking to make sure Michelle can welcome Kota back before we book our next vacation.”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“We are so relieved to have a smart, reliable family... to watch our Haru when we're away. They kept me updated throughout Haru’s stay. We highly recommend Mike and Patricia!”
“This is my second time using Rover and I couldn't be happier! I'm pretty sure Tucker didn't even want to come home after his stay at Walee's. He had an absolute blast running around her huge yard with her dog Ike. As I type this, Tucker is still sleeping on the couch after a solid 3 hour nap. I would absolutely recommend Walee to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog!”
“Elaine is an amazing, experienced sitter and knew just how to help Floyd feel comfortable and settle in for a short stay. I appreciate the great communication and frequent updates. 100% would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring environment for their animals.”
“Patti and her husband took great care of my puppy! I was updated with pictures and videos the whole time. I felt at ease knowing Tilly was in such safe and caring hands❤️”
“Thank you to Michelle and David for watching Clover for the weekend. Clover got to sleep on a bed (instead of in her crate‐ yes, it was okayed!) and had a doggy friend her age to run around with. I think she enjoyed herself!”
“Ruchi and Nitin are amazing. Henderson was well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. Excellent communication and very reliable. Would absolutely recommend and rebook!”
“Irina did a great job of caring for my little dog Fred. Fred is a rescue and tends to be anxious in new situations. Irina and her environment are very welcoming and this was not wasted on Fred. He stayed close to Irina during his visit, following her everywhere. When she sat on the couch, she picked him up to be next to her. She had more than 1 dog boarding and I think this was also beneficial for Fred. I would gladly choose Irina again.”
“We love having our pooch stay with Cassidy - she provides such a loving home environment and lots of walks and attention! Our girl always comes back very relaxed and happy.”
“Sharon and Henry were absolutely amazing! They are extremely caring and went above and beyond to make sure Tony felt at home. They sent plenty of pictures and updates, which really helped ease my anxiety — I didn’t have a single moment of concern the entire time. It was clear Tony enjoyed his stay and was showered with love and attention. I couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly thoughtful and reliable care!”
“Barbara and family was very kind and welcoming to my dog. She asked all the questions that made me feel like my girl was going to be well taken care of even to the extent of switching her sleeping habits to my dog’s. I highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my girl!”
“Debbie is the best!! We recently lost our long time dog sitter and were anxious about leaving our senior dog with GI issues and anxiety with someone new while we left town for a few days with limited cell service. Lila didn’t even want to come home when we picked her up!! She was very comfortable with Lila’s needs, sent us updates and was flexible on pickup time. I’ve used a lot of dog sitters in my time and she is one of the best!! So competent, communicative and a true animal lover. Thank you Debbie!!”
“Alyssa was great to work with, and our dog was immediately comfortable at her home. Alyssa is patient, welcoming, and very easygoing. I felt completely comfortable leaving my senior dog with her. She handled his medications well, kept him safe and happy, and sent regular updates and pics. She is caring and has an amazing yard for dogs to play and explore safely. I brought home a happy boy! I highly recommend Alyssa!”

About: Growing up, I always had a dog. In addition to the traditional Golden, I also loved exotic pets. Some friends from my childhood will still occasionally ask me, "what kind of weird pet do you have these days?" My husband and I were adventurous before settling down and starting our family so we decided not to jump into pet ownership until more recently. Now after having kids, we want to make sure that we are all fully ready to jump back into the long term commitment of pet ownership. In the meantime though, I have a lot of love to share and I would adore hosting your pet. My home is in town but offers nearly a half acre of fenced in yard space. I am happy to keep your pet indoors, outdoors, or a mix. Whatever you and your pet prefer, I can accommodate. I work from home and can give your pet lots of attention throughout the day. Please feel free to call me, swing by for a tour, and feel comfortable knowing that your treasured family member(s) is safe here with me. I work from home and am available every day, all day, to meet your pet's needs. I have a large fenced backyard for potty breaks and play time. You will not need to worry about your dog's safety or getting along with other animals while away from your care because I will only host one dog family at a time. I will be happy to send you picture update each day with a report of how your friend is doing while you are away. Rest easy that your animal is being loved and cared for the way you would while you are gone.

About: I've taken care of and raised my own cat Link since we adopted him from a shelter event! He's almost 7 now and doing wonderfully! I've also volunteered at an outdoor cat sanctuary for over a year, taking care of cats with special needs and caring for them!
“Samantha was extremely helpful with my dog and 2 cats. When it game to a meet and greet Samantha was very thorough and asked a lot of questions to ensure she didn’t miss anything. She was super consistent with timing, and had great communication, send pictures daily. She is someone I trust in my home.”

“Justin is easy to work with and a great communicator. We appreciated that he got back to us right away to confirm his availability and provided twice daily updates on our dogs. We won’t hesitate to recommend him to our friends and neighbors. Thanks Justin!”
“This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my reliability, attention to detail, and genuine care for each pet as an individual. I take the time to learn and follow a pet’s routine exactly so they feel safe and comfortable, whether they’re a puppy, adult, or senior. I’m patient and confident working with puppies, including basic training reinforcement, potty routines, and leash manners. I’m also attentive to senior pets, providing gentle care, slower-paced activity, medication support if needed, and close monitoring for any changes in behavior or health. I communicate clearly with owners and treat every pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits into my routine through consistent daily habits and a small weekly reset. I take care of feeding and fresh water every day, along with making time for exercise, bathroom breaks, and attention so my pet stays healthy and engaged. I also do quick health checks to make sure everything seems normal. Once a week, I focus on cleaning, grooming, and restocking supplies. Overall, it’s built into my day in a way that feels manageable and routine rather than overwhelming. I care for pets by following a consistent, attentive routine that prioritizes their safety, comfort, and well-being. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, always have fresh water, and get the appropriate exercise and bathroom breaks they need. I provide companionship and enrichment through play, attention, and positive interaction, while also monitoring their behavior and health for any changes. I follow any specific instructions given by the owner, including medication, feeding preferences, and routines, to ensure pets feel comfortable and secure in their environment
“Just wanted to leave a special review for Stephanie! She really is a great person in general! And what a special kitty sitter☺️she really went over and above. You know leaving your fur babies with someone you don’t know is hard but we really scored with Stephanie! Such a blessing💜Will definitely use her again and again and so should you🫶🏽”
“Irina is a dream caretaker for our animals! She came to feed our cat and goats and give water to our chickens, and she was so attentive and detail oriented. She also managed to wrangle our goats back into their pasture after they escaped before she got there which was such a huge help while we’re out of town! We always love getting help from her.”
“Adrianne did a great job with our kitty! She responded right away when we reached out to her, came over for a meet and greet and was very professional. She took good care of our cat and gave us updates while we were gone.”

“I can’t say enough about Lainey and her care of our pets June 3rd -19th. She is a very responsible, kind and diligent. Lainey understood how important this was for us, and she clearly cares very much for the animals in her care. Communication was fantastic right from the start and throughout our trip.

“Elaine, treated Cruz like one of her own. She gave her lots of love and attention. Cruz had such a great time with her and her pups that she didn’t want to leave each day, and was ecstatic going back each morning. Elaine provided us with great pics and detailed updates. So thankful to know that Cruz had a wonderful week of daycare with her!!”
“Michelle was great with my dog Oakley! I was so thankful she was able to take him on short notice and accommodate whatever we needed... Her house is on a large property that's fully enclosed and in a beautiful gated community in the hills. Whether you have a big dog that loves to run around and interact with other friendly animals or a small dog that prefers to spend time inside close to people, Michelle's house is an awesome place for pets! My dog has major separation anxiety, but instead of stressing out like he normally does when he knows I'm leaving him, Oakley immediately settled in and started exploring the property with one of her dogs right after we got there! I could tell from Michelle's updates and photos that Oakley was really enjoying his time there and felt comfortable he would be well taken care of if he needed to stay even longer in the future. The location of her house turned out to be really convenient and close to where I was going, but even if I'm further away the next time I'm in town and need a sitter, I know that Michelle will be our first choice for sure!”
“Michelle and Dave are amazing! I knew I had found the perfect sitters within minutes. Truly dog lovers. My three year old Pom Chi has never had day care, she loves them! I highly recommend them!”

“Alexa provided such a wonderful Rover experience. She's a great communicator, very attuned to a pet's care instructions, and I came back to find my pup so relaxed and happy with her. I wouldn't hesitate to book again with her, thank you Alexa!”
“Seriously the best place if you are looking for a dog sitter. My anxious dog hates being away from me but she has found a second home here. I drop her off knowing she will be well cared for, safe, and happy. So grateful to have finally found a family who understands her!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. My very first pet was my childhood cat, who I got when I was 2 years old and who lived with me for 17 wonderful years before crossing the rainbow bridge. I’ve always had a special connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. I currently have two Dobermans and a kitty of my own. I recently moved to a 2 acre property, which has been amazing for training and working with my dogs, they’re truly thriving with the space and lifestyle they deserve. To me, pets are family, and I always strive to give them the best care, attention, and love possible. I’ve also rescued and fostered kittens in need, helping them find safe and loving forever homes. Caring for animals genuinely brings me happiness, and having them in my life has always been incredibly fulfilling. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I already care for my own animals every day. At my home, pets have access to a large, secure fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I also have spacious fenced in kennels available if needed for safety, rest time, or individual comfort. Pets are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and cared for in a clean, calm environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routines, instructions, and house rules to help pets feel comfortable and stress free in their familiar environment. I like to check in with pet parents often, sending pictures and updates to give them peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
“I found the perfect family-style petsitter for my repeat visits to Cameron Park. Irina is a loving mom to her family of 2 and 4-legged kiddos as well as the pets that come for a short stay in her home. She was a wonderful communicator before and during my dog's stay. The photos she sent showed my Corgi was truly happy at Irina's place. I enjoyed talking to Irina about her positive experiences using Rover as a provider and I shared my success with finding a Rover pet sitter near my home in Aizona and now a sitter for a frequent destination in California. I highly recommend Irina and Rover.”
“We were visiting Folsom for a birthday party and left our Pomeranian with Shannon for about 4 hours so we wouldn't have to worry about Belle getting fed by the kids and all. It was so nice to be able to relax while Belle hung out with Shannon and some other dogs! All went well and we got a few videos of Belle! Shannon was very good at communicating with us.”
“Henry and Sharon have been amazing dog sitters for my 7month old puppy Bodhi. They watch him for puppy daycare one day weekly. They are very communicative and reliable and make sure they understand your dog’s personality and care needs so they can make it a comfortable and positive stay. We had a meet and greet with their dog Rufus prior to setting up daycare and Bodhi and Rufus play very well together. They always send a Rover card documenting how the day went with photos and potty breaks. They even go above and beyond and give Bodhi mental enrichment with puzzles and healthy treats. Thank you Sharon and Henry for taking such good care of my little boy!”
“Sara is obviously great with animals and I’m so thankful she was able to watch my high energy dog on short notice. Perfect yard and she took him on walks during the day. Will definitely book again!”
“Robert is fabulous!! I came to the area for a one month contract job. While driving across country, my 15 year old Chihuahua was grabbed by a big dog and was injured. Dixie could barely walk and had to go to two ERs along the way for care. Being under contract I HAD to start working and couldn't leave her alone or with other pets. I found Robert who happens to be between dogs. He was perfect. Cared for her with her unique needs of having to be picked up and even gave her the medicine she needed during the day. I got reassuring pics and was so relieved to find such a loving place to leave my "special needs" pup. Thank God for Rover and for Robert!”
“Two weeks after adopting a rescue, I was nervous to leave him with anyone and almost cancelled my trip to the snow, but we found Sara instead! She took such good care of my boy who had been through a lot in two weeks! He had a great day and once we got home, had one VERY great sleep!”
About: I have taken care of personal, friends, family, and strangers animals since I was about 8! I had animals in the 4H and FFA and have dealt with numerous species including dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, reptiles, and all livestock. I have also had my own of numerous since I was a small child. I currently have a part time job and am available most days of the week! I am also an online full time student at Sierra College! I have a large fenced yard of over 10 acres and 4 other kenneled friendly babies that could come out and play! I would only let out one at a time as I don’t want your pup getting too overwhelmed! We have a nice neighborhood to take walks through and so many things to see!
About: Hi! My name is Elisabeth and I live near the golf course in Cameron Park with my husband and our friendly labradoodle, Clay. Although we already have one dog, our hearts are big enough for more so we'd love to take care of your dog while you're away! What can you expect if you book a stay with us? First and foremost, you can relax knowing that your dog’s safety is my top priority. Mike's family operated an animal foundation and clinic, and I grew up surrounded by a handful of dogs, so your furry friend will be in excellent and experienced hands. Secondly, your dog is going to have a great time! We have a fenced-in backyard and if your dog likes to swim, we have a [gated] pool for them to play. We're located near plenty of dog parks and hiking trails which we visit nearly every weekend. I love spending time outdoors so your doggo will get plenty of exercise. Last but not least, my dog Clay makes a wonderful companion so your dog will have a built-in buddy during their stay. He's extraordinarily loving and gentle, very easy to get along with. Thank you for taking the time to look at our profile and we hope to meet you and your dog very soon! I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule which makes it easy for me to give your pets plenty of love and attention. Because we have a dog of our own that we love and adore, we know how important it is to find a sitter you trust. We'll look after your fur baby as if they were our own!
“We are so happy that we found Nanci. She is so nice and provided a wonderful day for our pup. She sent pictures and videos throughout his stay so we could see how he was enjoying his day.”
About: I have always had dogs/animals. We have 5 dogs of our own. We also foster with a local rescue. We specialize in the squish face breeds. We completely understand climate control. We love to exercise outside and go out often to romp. I am currently working remote part of the time (office days are Tues/Thurs). We typically always have someone home and the dogs are likely never alone for more than a 2-3 hour period. Our dogs are very friendly and love to play! We do not have a fenced yard, so our preference would be dogs that are not a flight risk! We can use a flexi leash for potty breaks but that would limit outside play for our guests. We live on 2.5 acres with a lot of grass to romp and play. Our dogs do not go outside unless supervised.

“Dorothy was wonderful! She was friendly, reliable, and took great care of Daisy during her walks. Daisy was always excited to see her each day and clearly enjoyed getting out for exercise and plenty of time to sniff and explore. It gave us peace of mind knowing Daisy was in such caring hands. We definitely would recommend Dorothy for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!”
“Cole was amazing with our beagle puppy, Cowboy. Cole was super communicative and friendly, and he took Cowboy on a long walk at the nearby dog park. Cole has dogs of his own, so he has a wealth of knowledge on how to train and take care of our dog. Would highly recommend Cole!”

I currently have five cats and a dog of my own, and I’ve been actively caring for animals since I was about 13 years old. What started as helping neighbors, friends, and family quickly grew into a full pet sitting business.

I would prioritize your dog’s safety on every walk-always using secure leashes, staying in pet-friendly areas, and keeping full attention on your dogs needs!
About: I have taken care of dogs for the past 5 years or so by myself. Growing up my parents watched dogs for friends and family every so often. We also had a border collie mix of our own for 15 years and I was responsible for taking care of him. I currently work M-Th; 9am-5pm but fairly free before or after work for walks and playtime. I tend to get up early on work days but a night owl on the weekends. I enjoy getting out on the weekends like going on walks with hikes. I currently do not have fenced in hard but I do have a large grass area right outside my house that is dog friendly and is great for playtime and even doggie pool time.
“Adrianne was prompt and communicated well. We are very grateful for her availability on such short notice. Our pup seems well taken care of. We trust her with our dog and in our house. Thank you Adrianne!”
About: I have taken care of pups in multiple different capacities since I was 18. From taking care of older dogs (giving them meds, changing diapers,etc) to watching puppies and helping potty train them. I have always loved dogs, but that love grew so much more when my husband and I got our Corgi-Australian Shepherd pup 3 years ago. I understand the feeling of wanting to make sure your dog is taken care of when you are gone for long hours. If you choose me, I will make sure to not only follow your instructions but make your pup feel loved, so that you can enjoy your day and not be worried. I work part time from home so I do have Mondays and Fridays off. So I’m flexible on those days and then weekend, if I have advance notice. Leave detailed instructions for me so that I can keep your dog/house safe and sound :) The more details the better so I can ensure your happiness with my service.

Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!

“Amy and Justin are fantastic dogsitters. Right away from their meet n greet/interview you can see that they are committed to providing the best, personalize care for your pup. Lots of photos, great communication and details of the stay. Clover seemed to fit right in with their household. She even received a sweet handmade card from their oldest child that said, "I love Clover". 🥹🩷 Will definitely be booking again with them!”
“Absolutely the BEST dog sitter for our 6 month old Kota. The photos and videos and updates daily made being apart while we were on vacation much more enjoyable. This was Kota’s first time away from us and I felt a bit guilty making him come home! Michelle made sure he had fun and got lots of socializing with other pups she was watching. Swimming in the kiddie pool was definitely a highlight! So much playtime meant afternoon naps where he snored. We will definitely be checking to make sure Michelle can welcome Kota back before we book our next vacation.”
“Melissa was the perfect person to take care of our Sara. She had a great time with Melissa’s pups and family. She kept us informed on how Sara was doing each day. This was great for us as it was Sara’s first boarding experience. We know Sara had a blast!! Melissa thank you for welcoming Sara, Rich and I. We enjoyed you and meeting your family!! Hugs 🤗. Thank you.”
“This is my second time using Rover and I couldn't be happier! I'm pretty sure Tucker didn't even want to come home after his stay at Walee's. He had an absolute blast running around her huge yard with her dog Ike. As I type this, Tucker is still sleeping on the couch after a solid 3 hour nap. I would absolutely recommend Walee to anyone looking for someone to watch their dog!”
“Elaine is an amazing, experienced sitter and knew just how to help Floyd feel comfortable and settle in for a short stay. I appreciate the great communication and frequent updates. 100% would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring environment for their animals.”
“Thank you to Michelle and David for watching Clover for the weekend. Clover got to sleep on a bed (instead of in her crate‐ yes, it was okayed!) and had a doggy friend her age to run around with. I think she enjoyed herself!”
“Irina did a great job of caring for my little dog Fred. Fred is a rescue and tends to be anxious in new situations. Irina and her environment are very welcoming and this was not wasted on Fred. He stayed close to Irina during his visit, following her everywhere. When she sat on the couch, she picked him up to be next to her. She had more than 1 dog boarding and I think this was also beneficial for Fred. I would gladly choose Irina again.”
“We love having our pooch stay with Cassidy - she provides such a loving home environment and lots of walks and attention! Our girl always comes back very relaxed and happy.”
“Debbie is the best!! We recently lost our long time dog sitter and were anxious about leaving our senior dog with GI issues and anxiety with someone new while we left town for a few days with limited cell service. Lila didn’t even want to come home when we picked her up!! She was very comfortable with Lila’s needs, sent us updates and was flexible on pickup time. I’ve used a lot of dog sitters in my time and she is one of the best!! So competent, communicative and a true animal lover. Thank you Debbie!!”

About: Growing up, I always had a dog. In addition to the traditional Golden, I also loved exotic pets. Some friends from my childhood will still occasionally ask me, "what kind of weird pet do you have these days?" My husband and I were adventurous before settling down and starting our family so we decided not to jump into pet ownership until more recently. Now after having kids, we want to make sure that we are all fully ready to jump back into the long term commitment of pet ownership. In the meantime though, I have a lot of love to share and I would adore hosting your pet. My home is in town but offers nearly a half acre of fenced in yard space. I am happy to keep your pet indoors, outdoors, or a mix. Whatever you and your pet prefer, I can accommodate. I work from home and can give your pet lots of attention throughout the day. Please feel free to call me, swing by for a tour, and feel comfortable knowing that your treasured family member(s) is safe here with me. I work from home and am available every day, all day, to meet your pet's needs. I have a large fenced backyard for potty breaks and play time. You will not need to worry about your dog's safety or getting along with other animals while away from your care because I will only host one dog family at a time. I will be happy to send you picture update each day with a report of how your friend is doing while you are away. Rest easy that your animal is being loved and cared for the way you would while you are gone.
About: I have always had a pet dog throughout my life, so being around dogs feels natural to me. Taking care of them has been part of my daily routine, from feeding and walking them to making sure they are happy and healthy. Over time, I’ve learned how to understand their behavior and needs, which has helped me build a strong connection with them. Dogs have always been an important part of my life, and I enjoy spending time with them and caring for them. I work from home and love the challenge of some dogs. I wake up at 5 and feed my own dog and do some work. After I usually take him out for walks through the day. I walk him about 2 miles and can also walk your own dog, just tell me and I can do it. I can also follow any strict dietary restrictions if your dogs requires it for food. After around 3 I am free and spend time with my dogs all day after and chill with him beside me. But, if your dogs requires sheds a lot, I can’t promise he will be sleeping with me or be laying on the couch, I have a specialized ginormous dog bed for he/she. I live in El Dorado Hills, so it is very hilly in some areas, including my home. I have a big dog kennel outside that is surrounded by a fence, while I have a large dog cage inside my house that can also be used. I also have a area for the dogs to run and play in my backyard.
“Sandra is amazing, she took such a good care of our puppy, she is caring and definitely loves dogs! We would 100% recommend her and we'll use her services every time from now on. Thank you Sandra!”
“Belle came home happy and exhausted from her stay with Jena and family. I know she received a lot of love and attention and daily exercise, and that’s exactly what Belle needs, when she’s away from home. Jena was great about sending updates and photos and she was very patient and understanding when Belle had tummy and sleep issues.”
“Sharon and Albert were really kind and accommodating. They understand dogs and they were able to provide the adequate level of attention to my dog, their home and yard are well maintained and fenced. I felt safe leaving my pup with them.”
“Absolutely wonderful person and family for our pup to stay with! Amanda was great at caring for our senior pup and we appreciate knowing she was in safe hands during our trip.”
