“Brian took really good care of my Mocha. He even took the time to do some training with her. Very knowledgeable about the type of care each pet has and went out of his way to make sure our Mocha was comfortable in his home. Thank you Brian”
“Tasha and her family were amazing. They took such good care of our dog and she sent tons of pictures throughout his stay. They made our dog feel like he was at home. He definitely loved being there.”
“Arlene is super reliable and great with animals. First time I left my dog Gibby with anyone besides a family member. She went above and beyond with playing and walks. He was a happy boy. She sent pictures and messaged me showing how he was. A great person and very good to use.”
“The best dog sitter around!! While our family was out of town we received pictures, updates and quick responses. We couldn’t have asked for better care for our dog! We had a unique situation that needed some flexibility and they were willing to work with us. Everything worked out perfectly! We cannot say enough how much our minds were at ease knowing our dog was in good hands.”
“Aundrea was an amazing sitter for our two pups—our 9-year-old Shih Tzu and our energetic 2-year-old French Bulldog! From the moment we connected, she was warm, professional, and super attentive to their needs. While my husband and I were on vacation, Aundrea sent frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear from every message that our dogs were not only safe, but also truly loved and cared for. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we trust this much. We would absolutely book with Aundrea again!”
“Lupe was amazing with Mia! I was gone for a long holiday trip and haven’t been away from her longer than a week and Lupe immediately welcomed Mia into her home and treated her like one of her own family members. Her home is beautiful and spacious for Mia to play, I got lots of updates and pictures and she made me feel at ease immediately about leaving Mia behind. I can’t thank her and her family enough and I couldn’t think of a better place for Mia to stay while I was away ❤️”
“I can't say enough positive things about Stephanie! She is incredibly communicative and sweet with our dog. It was our first time having anyone watch our pup, and Stephanie made us feel so comfortable. Her dog, Tank, and our Milly got along so well and played together throughout the stay. We got lots of photos and have already inquired about our next booking. I highly recommend.”
“Sandra and his family are very welcoming and kind. My adult dog has not been in a dog daycare for a long while, and she might've been so nervous being away from us. I was told that she was peeing everywhere in the house, but they still took care of her lovingly. Sandra and her family is dog friendly and I appreciate her flexibility in dropping off and picking up.”
“Shireen was great with my old pup. I was a little nervous leaving him with strangers but he did great and we loved the photos she sent during our vacation. The photos give you, as a dog mom, the comfort that your pup is happy and being taken care of and eases your mind. I will definitely have Leo come back to Shireen.”
“Leslie was great! She was very responsive and took a last minute booking (when my other dog sitter fell through), which I am extremely grateful for! My dog clearly was well taken care of.”
“My dog, Ellie had a wonderful stay with Anthony! He provided updates, pictures and videos! I am so grateful to have found a safe and reliable person to take care of my fur baby!”
“Maizie had such a great time at Darlene’s! Darlene was extremely communicative and sent updates and pictures. Maizie got to go on lots of walks and was so well taken care of. I also appreciated Darlene being flexible with our drop off time. Will be booking again!”
“Sandra was amazing! I got to meet with her and let my dog play with Coco before officially having him stay there during my trip. He loved playing with all of the dogs! He was actually sad to leave them behind. 10/10 recommend”
“Love this lady. I feel instant connection and so my puppy. She was extremely nice and make sure we see our puppy everyday that we were gone which makes the kids happy . Her price is also reasonable. I have found a friend”
“Great week-long stay – dependable and caring! Tony took care of Jax (my high energy Shepherd) for a full week, and everything went really smoothly. He was dependable, followed all the care instructions, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. It was clear Jax was comfortable and well cared for, which gave me real peace of mind while I was out of the country. Tony has a great backyard for a high energy dog and also a sweet dog, Chico, of his own. I’d definitely recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!”

“Ella did AWESOME as always. I always feel sad leaving my cat fur baby when we go on vacations, but Ella is amazing and always eases my worries - she goes above and beyond for Mitchell and takes good care of him. I’m glad she’s our cat sitter - but we see her more like Mitchell’s human best friend! Thanks Ella!”
“Kristin did a wonderful job looking after our cat, Jacob. We would highly recommend her to anyone needing her services. Kristin is dependable, thorough and truly cares and loves animals. Our cat took to her right away! Thank you Kristin for taking such good care of Jacob!”
“Jennifer has been helping my family with our new puppy for 2 weeks now by coming and giving him a daily potty/lunch/play break while we are at work and school. She goes above and beyond for our pup and even gives some love to our older dog while she’s here. We love getting the daily updates and pictures she sends. Jennifer is kind, responsible, responsive, and reliable.”
“We've been working with Stephanie for about a year to watch our cat Arthur. He always seems in good spirits when we're back! She does a good job and is reliable. She also helped with hermit crab and plants! All the plants survived the Vacaville heat. I definitely recommend her!”
“Darlene took excellent care of our senior cat while we were out of the country. She’s easy to work with and kept us posted on Spencer’s well being. Recommend her highly!!”

“Laila went above and beyond, checking in with every step, sending photos of the kitties and even of the food dishes. And my kitty was comfortable enough to come to her from the first visit. I’m very particular and overly protective of my babies and she put my mind at ease. She’s a lovely person too. I think I hit the jackpot finding her.”
“Ellen was great!! We came back home to a very happy Peaky and a spotless apartment (dishes and linen all cleaned too!). Peaky can sometimes be a shy cat but he became friends with Ellen very quickly. We also appreciated the regular communication/updates and pics. Would love to have her sit Peaky again!”
“Allyson is great with our pups, super reliable, and has a lot of experience with animals, which gave us a lot of confidence leaving our senior dogs with her! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Dawna was absolutely amazing!! Our kitties were well cared for! She even brought in our mail and took out the garbage cans, which we didn’t even ask her to do! Will definitely use her again!!!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Breah as our cat sitter. She was punctual, had a wonderful personality, and was consistently responsive, always checking in with updates. Our typically shy animals warmed up to her immediately, and she even managed to get Leo to take his pills twice a day, which is no small feat! Breah was accommodating with our special requests and even went above and beyond by bringing in a package from our porch. We truly appreciated her care and can’t wait to book her again. Highly recommend!”

“When we met Andrew at his house, he gave us a tour which included his yard. We picked up our 23lb 12 yr old poodle mix a few hours later. Oogie was happy and fell asleep when we returned home. This is the first time we used Rover’s app & dog sitting services. We are happy with the overall experience.”
“After extensive search for a dog sitter, I was lucky to have found Brian. He is professional and courteous. The yard and house is in impeccable shape for dogs to roam around. He also provides good advise and tips on handling dogs. Thank you Brian.”
“Wow! Scooby’s first daycare visit with Stephanie (and Tank) today was pure magic! He strolled right inside and made himself right at home when it usually takes him several visits to start to feel comfortable (if ever). Scooby even took his regular naps at Stephanie’s which is unheard of (read: he must have felt super relaxed and comfortable). Stephanie sent many pictures and shared updates. I 100% feel Scooby was loved and cared for today just as we would if not more. Feeling grateful to have found such a lovely place for Scooby to hang when needed and looking forward to his first overnight visit in a few weeks.”
“Leslie has been amazing! I have been using her for daycare when I have long work days. Her grandson snuggles my boys and Leslie is there with them the entire time, letting them out into the yard for exercise. I can't tell you how relieved I feel knowing that they're not at home alone. Leslie has given me such great peace of mind.”
“My puppy had a great time. He played and played, slept very well when he came home. Will definitely leave him with Sandra and his new best buddy Coco next time we're in town.”
About: My own fur baby crossed the rainbow bridge not long ago, so I’m looking to pass on the love I gave (still give) her to any and all pups! I’m a stay-at-home wife with no children and no pets currently. My husband is in the Air Force so I’m looking to find ways to spend my time during the days. My schedule is 100% open! I have a fenced backyard and live in a nice quiet neighborhood that is PERFECT for walks. I am willing to make many accommodations as needed, and am really open to whatever is needed.
About: My whole life I have been surrounded by all kinds of pets, but my love drifted towards dogs the most. I have owned 5 different breeds of dogs in my life; Labrador, Rottweiler, Pit-bull, Maltese, and Jack Russel Terrier. I have dealt with dogs of all sizes and never had an issue getting along with any of them. Before my Pit-bull was put down she got pregnant and gave birth to 12 baby pit-bulls, unfortunately we could not keep them all, but before they all given away I was given the responsibility to take care of the mother and the babies. Sadly only my Labrador and Terrier remains, but that never stopped me from caring for other dogs, currently I dog sit for my neighbors when they are either out of town or need a walker. Whether it's nonstop running at the park or soothing and relaxing at home I am 110% at your service! I work in a hybrid setting allowing more flexibility to take care of any needs of the pet and you! I consistently take care of animals throughout the week. I have a large fenced backyard so your animal can be free! There are no children or other animals in the household so my full attention can be on your baby.
“What a lovely, caring family. Janica and her son welcomed our recent rescue puppy with open arms, and reassured us she would be fine with them and their dog - and she was right! We got picture updates even though our dog was only with them a few hours. ...we just wish we had someone we could trust living closer to us on the Central Coast.”
“Miko had a great time at Shireen’s! We did a meet and greet a few days before to help him warm up a bit, and that was helpful for my nervous pup. If we ever need a sitter again, we will definitely be booking with Shireen!”

“Sabrina watched our baby for daycare for 3 days. Our pup quickly seemed to warm up to her. She kept us updated during the day and graciously brought her to us at the end of the day. Sabrina seemed super friendly and she treated our pup with a lot of care, even in the face of our dog’s first heat cycle. We appreciate her and the care she provided.”
“David M. Was great- sent pics and video during the day. Will use his services again without question. Our two dogs spent the entire day with him and we are so pleased. Thank You, David M.”

“A wonderful update from Kristin, seemed well experienced so I trusted her to handle my reactive dog and she did fantastically. Knew just what to do when an issue came about and everyone was safe and secure. I will 100% book with Kristin again. Side note: the fact that my evil cat let her pet him is mind blowing in itself and would book her again just for that fact alone. Thank you so much Kristin for truly caring about my pups. They’ll see you again soon!”
“We had been let down by someone to take Hamz for a walk when I started my new job, we contacted Darlene and after a little chat we met up so Hamz could meet her and we could go over his specific medical issues. Hammy fell quick and hard for the wonderful Darlene and just a couple of days later she dropped in and took our baby boy for his lunch time walk, while seeing to his medical needs ahead of his operation. Hammy went for his operation on the Friday and Darlene asked to be updated over the weekend and rejoiced with us when he was doing so well. Darlene has been a wonderful addition to Hammys life and my husband and I can not thank her enough for the piece of mind she has given us. Thank you so much, you truly have made a wonderful difference to our lives.”

About: I genuinely treat every pet like they're my own. I'm comfortable caring for pets with different needs, whether that's high-energy dogs that need long walks and playtime, puppies still learning routines, or older pets that need a slower pace and a litle extra patience. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications (if necessary), and any specific instructions you leave. I also make a point to keep you updated with photos and check-ins, so you're never left wondering how your pet is doing. Pet care fits really well into my routine. I work as a paralegal during the week, but I'm available during my lunch break for walks or quick drop-ins. After 4 PM, I'm fully available for longer walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company. On weekends, I'm much more flexible and can be available pretty much all day depending on your needs. Whether it's multiple visits, extended stays, or last-minute plans, I'm happy to help. I just ask for about an hour's notice, so I can make sure I get there on time and give your pet the attention they deserve. In my own home, I'm used to caring for two very different personalities. I have one high-energy dog who loves to run and play, and one more relaxed dog who prefers to take it easy. I adjust my care based on their needs , whether that means being outside throwing a ball and staying active, or slowing things down for cuddle time and a calm environment. When I'm in a client's home, I follow that same approach. I pay close attention to each pet's personality and routine and adjust accordingly. If your dog loves to play, I'm more than happy to keep them active and engaged with walks, games, and mental stimulation. If they're more laid back or just want companionship, I'm just as happy to spend time relaxing with them and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Her home is beautiful and spacious for Mia to play, I got lots of updates and pictures and she made me feel at ease immediately about leaving Mia behind. I can’t thank her and her family enough and I couldn’t think of a better place for Mia to stay while I was away ❤️”
“I can't say enough positive things about Stephanie! She is incredibly communicative and sweet with our dog. It was our first time having anyone watch our pup, and Stephanie made us feel so comfortable. Her dog, Tank, and our Milly got along so well and played together throughout the stay. We got lots of photos and have already inquired about our next booking. I highly recommend.”
“Shireen was great with my old pup. I was a little nervous leaving him with strangers but he did great and we loved the photos she sent during our vacation. The photos give you, as a dog mom, the comfort that your pup is happy and being taken care of and eases your mind. I will definitely have Leo come back to Shireen.”
“Leslie was great! She was very responsive and took a last minute booking (when my other dog sitter fell through), which I am extremely grateful for! My dog clearly was well taken care of.”
“My dog, Ellie had a wonderful stay with Anthony! He provided updates, pictures and videos! I am so grateful to have found a safe and reliable person to take care of my fur baby!”
“Love this lady. I feel instant connection and so my puppy. She was extremely nice and make sure we see our puppy everyday that we were gone which makes the kids happy . Her price is also reasonable. I have found a friend”
“Great week-long stay – dependable and caring! Tony took care of Jax (my high energy Shepherd) for a full week, and everything went really smoothly. He was dependable, followed all the care instructions, and kept me updated with messages and photos throughout the stay. It was clear Jax was comfortable and well cared for, which gave me real peace of mind while I was out of the country. Tony has a great backyard for a high energy dog and also a sweet dog, Chico, of his own. I’d definitely recommend Tony to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again!”
“PERFECT for those looking to board small, sociable doggies. She's attentive with texting / sending "pupdates" for those of us whose work requires weekly travel when conditions aren't suitable to take our companions. My arrangement worked out quite well given I had to quickly locate an accomodating boarder.”
“Tiffany was great! She was very professional, and her experience was evident throughout the entire process, from the first message to final pickup. She also sent us regular updates with pictures, which we really appreciated.”
“Randi and her family were absolutely amazing with my dog Bubba. Everyone was so patient and kind with him. Bubba was initially a bit timid, which made me nervous, but they gave him the time and space he needed. Seeing him open up more and more truly made me so happy and reassured. I’m incredibly grateful for the care and patience they showed him and would absolutely trust them again! ☺️”
“Sabrina and her husband are friendly and easy to talk with. she seems to love the pups she sits. I have not had a chance to talk with her after the board because a friend picked up my dog.”
