“We boarded our two dogs for the first time with Carrie and her family for an overnight stay. My husband and I could tell right away that they were going to be in great hands. I appreciated the quick responses and the update on how they were doing. We would definitely utilize this amazing family again and feel safe and reassured doing so. Sincerely, The Navarrete Family”
“We were extremely happy with Irina and can truly recommend her without any hesitation. From the very beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving our dogs in her care. Throughout our time away, she sent us regular updates, messages, and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. Our dogs were clearly happy, relaxed, and well cared for — which says everything. Irina is incredibly kind, reliable, and attentive, and you can truly tell that she loves what she does and cares deeply about the dogs she looks after. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust her with our dogs again anytime. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of them! 🐶❤️”
“Both my cat and dog stayed with her for over 2 weeks. She really took good care of them. I definitively recommend and I will book again in the future.”
“Catherine and Ernie took great care of Max. Both were very communicative before and during his stay. They were very kind and clearly love dogs. I highly recommend both!”
“Anais was very aware and considerate of my dog’s needs and our preferences. She was communicative and shared pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely reach out to Anais again in the future.”
“Naomi was amazing and has a huge heart for pups. She had our Benny for 2 nights and was great with communicating and updating us with photos and video of his time there. Highly Recommended! We will be using her for all our vacations.”

“Cole M. gave our senior Chihuahua, Lily, exceptional care by providing adequate space to play/explore, feeding her, and keeping her safe while walking her. Lily seemed to feel at ease with Cole and the other 3 puppies/dog. Lily like her new friends, and we enjoyed trusting Cole with our dog. Lily stayed in Cole's loving care from Sat., 6/1 to Sun., 6/2. We plan on utilizing Rover.com to book some future dates with Cole as our dog sitter. Thanks again Cole M. ~Prof. Keith & Roz H.”

“Thank you so much for taking Chase on board the last hour. For a minute Chase was looking confused to come with me , that shows how much love and affection you had for our little girl. We all really appreciated your sweet hospitality and pictures to keep us updated daily. I know we don’t have to look anywhere else when it comes to our next vacation because Chase feels like home with you. 🐾”

“Holly did a great job looking after my cat! She was communicative, thorough, and took wonderful pictures. He clearly enjoyed his time with her and warmed up very quickly! When I need a sitter in future she will be at the top of the list.”

About: I have a cat of my own so I know the basics of feeding one, idea of litter training, playing with them, and some idea of bathing. My cat personally hates water and has terrible anxiety so I work my around him with dry baths and mist combs.
“Another great sir with Cassie! My boys were well taken care of, loved on, and happy with Cassie's care. Cassie's communication is top notch and she gets the cutest pictures of my cats. Very happy with her care.”
About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life. I have trained almost all my dogs since they were puppies. I have trained my own service dog. I have a passion for training dogs. I am currently retired, so I have plenty of time to play with and train your pup. I can take them for daily walks around the park as well. I have a fenced yard and a nearby park to take your dog for a walk. I have my own friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I have a cat, but if your dog does not like cats, I can isolate may cat from your dog. My big dog seems to have a way of knowing how to make dogs feel comfortable in our home. He knows when to interact with them and when to just leave them alone. I am retired so I have lots of time to spend with your dog. I try to schedule my activities around when I have dogs, so I can devote all my time to caring for the dogs. I have a fenced in yard. I always supervise dogs when they are outside. I try to set up play dates with a neighbor who also works for Rover. My husband and family members are usually around to play with and take dogs on walks. I am currently transforming my services to focus more on training sessions in my client’s home. My main focus is working with young pups and to start training from day one, although I welcome the opportunity to train dogs of all ages. My goals are to offer support to dog owners on how to properly train desired behaviors in their dogs. I closely monitor all dogs, especially during play. I train the dogs how to play appropriately with each other. I will only crate dogs if it’s for their own safety. The only services I do in a client’s home are training sessions with the client present.
About: I provide a safe and caring environment for pets. At my home, I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor play, along with regular feeding, fresh water, exercise, and plenty of attention. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely, including walks, meals, potty breaks, and any special care needs to keep them comfortable.
“Jenny is the best!!! Always had our cat looking forward to her visits and we enjoyed the pictures/comments. Gave us ease of mind while we were away and she also looked after our snake!! The updates provided let us know our cats mood and eating habits.”
“Amy was great! We felt so reassured that our kitty was getting the attention she needed while we were gone. I appreciated the daily photo updates and could tell she took great care of our girl.”
“Claudia did an amazing job taking care of our two kitties while we were away! She was very easy to communicate with and left detailed notes on how the cats were doing after each visit. She also took some great pictures, which we really enjoyed seeing each day. She followed all of our detailed instructions and we could tell the cats were well taken care of when we returned. She gave us peace of mind during our time away and I would recommend Claudia’s services to anyone looking for help caring for their furry friends. We will definitely have her help us out again in the future!”
About: I've had at least one cat since I was a child, and I have been housesitting since I graduated from high school. I know that cats have their own behaviors and schedules, and I make sure to adjust to their needs. I have a current RVT license and have been and RVT for over 10 years. I am comfortable with medications and medical treatments if needed. Multi-cat households are no problem.
“Leo was wonderful with Olaf! He came for a walk and a hang out while I was out for a very long two days of a conference and Olaf took to him right away. He was flexible with our needs and very communicative. He checked in with me before and after his check in and Olaf was very appreciative of the attention. I'd be more than happy to book him again when we need someone to look after Olaf. Thanks Leo!”
About: Hi! I absolutely love cats and I have 3 inside cats and 4 outside cats :) I get cuteness aggression when it comes to furry animals and it’s pretty intense. I’m good at giving medication and I’m not afraid of the claws! Book me if your babies wants more pets and love :)

Perfect for high energy dogs - Sheldon
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I had a dog for 15 years who I took for walks, well-trained, and cared for. Our home has a large backyard with a maintained lawn where your pet can play and enjoy some quiet time. We live near a park which is walking distance where your pet can meet and play with other dogs. We do not have cats. I am a retired schoolteacher, occasionally do volunteer work in the Sacramento community, enjoy traveling, and stay active. I can spend one on one time with your pet. Our home is single story with a large fenced backyard and a raised bed where we grow our own vegetables. A public park is walking distance from our home where your pet can play and meet other dogs. We don't have cats and our neighborhood is relatively quiet. We also have a radio flyer wagon which can be used for older dogs.
“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”
“Deb and JC are amazing! Pip had a fantastic time during day boarding—he was happy, well cared for, and came home content and tired. They kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and videos, which we really appreciated. Their love for dogs really shows. Highly recommend!”
“I can never express enough how awesome Keith and Jackie are. They always take the best care of my pup Layla. Side note, thanks to them Layla is much much more sociable with other dogs. She’s always so happy for her visits ♥️”
“If you're looking for great customer service and good animal care experience ... Amanda's your gal. She listened to my needs, over-delivered and was super communicative with me during Crawford's stay at her home. It was my first time with a dog sitter (& I knew I could trust Rover, because I'm a Rover sitter & know they do a background check) ... but I was still nervous. My dog is 5 months young and although well-adjusted & potty trained, is very vulnerable. She was sensitive to this; I left him with her feeling i could trust her 100% ... I received photos and updates the entire time I was away. Highly recommend.”
“First time Rover user, and we couldn't more impressed with Annie. Starting with the "meet and greet", Annie welcomed our big baby despite his huge size (100lbs). He has an injury that requireds a special touch, and Annie more than delivered. We received pictures and videos throughout the day, and I swear, he almost didn't want to come home! We will certainly let Annie care for our big baby on day and overnight visits in the future! 🥰”
About: I am a dog whisperer I have never met a dog that I didn’t love nor have I met a dog that doesn’t love me . I have owned dogs for 14 years and I love to walk, run and even go hiking with them. I am great with all sizes and all ages. I am a student at Drexel University and I work part time but in my free time I would love to take care of your best friend . I understand how important that it is to have a trusted person to watch your best friend because I have my own that means everything to me as well. I will treat your pet as if it was my own because I believe that you treat others and pets as I would want someone to treat me and my own dog.
“Kenia was excellent at taking care of my girl. She helped her settle in quickly and kept her occupied for the day sit. Kenia even gave us a little souvenir polaroid of her stay. It was a sweet touch.”
“My dog had such a great time with Debra! I can tell my girl was very calm and happy when I picked her up. Debra even waited outside in the rain to make sure I could find her house when I dropped her off. It was good to know I had someone experienced to watch my dog.”
About: Before you read my bio, please note that I value communication, and it’s extremely important for me, especially when you're trying to book me as a dog sitter. If you decide to go with someone else, that's okay - just be formal and let me know so I can adjust my schedule accordingly and take care of other dogs who may need care. ⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣶⣿⣶⡾⠁ ⠠⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀ ⠀⠙⢿⣶⣶⣾⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠿⠃⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡃⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⠛⠻⢿⣦⡀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠟⠁⠘⢿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⡀⠀⠀⠹⠷⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣤⠀⠀⠀⠙⠷⠶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hi!

About: I learn super quickly, caring, kind, honest, hardworking, efficient, and love animals and want to work with them more someday! I want a farm too. I am currently unemployed but have worked in the restaurant industry for 3 years. I will go to school twice a week for community college. I love to play with the animals, take them on walks to beautiful parks, and willingly to bath them. Feeding is the more important part.
About: I am 19 years old doing this so I can make some extra money on the side and currently take care of my older brother, who has autism, which has taught me how to remain composed, aware, and reliable in all situations. Those skills are easily applied to pet care, particularly with nervous, timid, or sensitive animals. For example, my own dog has depression anxiety which I make sure to tend to quickly! I can easily fit time with your lovely pets into my daily schedule. I'm free any time after 11AM because I get my brother on the bus at around nine in the morning. Since I'm still learning how to drive, I typically take the bus, train, or Uber to get around. The only thing I know is that I might have to wait until about 5 PM for my mom to return if she works overtime on a Friday, but that rarely ever happens. There is a chance that my schedule can improve so make sure to keep an eye out! I treat every pet under my care as if they were a member of my own family. Making them feel secure, understood, and loved is always my top priority. By feeding them on time, taking them for walks or play, and making sure they receive lots of attention and are comfortable, I try to keep things as simple as possible. I make sure they have everything they require, keep their area neat, and regularly change their water. To reassure the owner that their pet is happy, safe and in good care, I also provide updates and pictures
About: I've been around and help take care of dogs since I can remember. I am currently taking care of my own furry 4 legged friend I am currently unemployed at the moment so I have plenty of free time on my hands to take your furry friend to the park or on longer walks I have a fenced in back yard (with a pool) and a dog they can play with. I am able to crate them if need be as well
“Pedro did a great job today. We had to make a change in schedule at the last minute so that I could go to a medical appointment. He picked up Kody and kept him until I returned. Kody had a great time and was a tired puppy when he got home! Thanks Pedro!”
“Edwin is polite, flexible, dependable and accommodating. Oso enjoyed his walks with him and we hope we can book more walks in the future. We truly recommend Edwin to care for your dog. Oso loved Edwin from the minute he stepped in our home. Thank you Edwin!”
About: Taking care of animals is passion of mine, so I would love to provide dog walking or drop ins! I started my first dog walking business when I was 10 and currently own 3 cats and 1 dog. I am an online student, so my schedule is very flexible! I accept last minute bookings and am available during the week and on weekends. I provide food and water to my cats and make sure their cat-box is cleaned regularly. My cats are cuddly, so I make sure to spend quality time with them.
About: It has been said to me that my first words as a child were ... barking! While I don't remember that, I do remember always having a connection with all furry companions. I grew up with dogs and cats and on occasion would visit my great grandparents' ranch, with horses, goats and more. I loved giving the animals snacks. More recently, I moved onto a small farm. I helped take care of over a dozen chickens and 2 turkeys; feeding, watering, cleaning the coop. My formal career experience has been in education. In addition to many childcare and classroom support jobs, I also taught public school for 5 years. In either environment, my natural tendency is using my natural empathy to provide personalized care. I am not only a sitter on Rover, but have used the service myself to board my cat before. I know what it's like to leave your baby in someone else's hands! Please communicate specifically to me so that we can rest assured all needs are met for your beloved pet(s). I will treat your furry family member like I would want mine to be treated - patiently, attentively, carefully and lovingly - and only ask that you communicate any expectations or other information clearly and thoroughly. I may ask a lot of questions to clarify, and welcome any of yours! (Además soy bilingüe ❤️) I currently update my schedule on a week-by-week basis. I work part-time as an in-home Instructor for developmentally disabled adults. This is only during weekdays. My availability will vary due to the unique schedule of that job. For example, if a client has a cold, that would be a cancellation on short notice, which would allow me to be available with Rover. So far I've had sufficient flexibility to pet sit and especially housesit in the area. I will reply to your request ASAP and we can go from there. Thank you! For this reason, I prefer to fill my schedule on a day-to-day basis, or at least weekly. I'm happy to answer any questions about specifics, so there is no confusion. Naturally, I'll provide the same consideration I'd expect from someone taking care of my home or pet. Most owners have written instructions down and that has been helpful. I tend to note things down myself, even if they're very simple, just to assure that they are not forgotten. I'll be detail oriented, focused, careful and respectful.

“Anais was very aware and considerate of my dog’s needs and our preferences. She was communicative and shared pictures throughout the stay. I will definitely reach out to Anais again in the future.”
About: Huge fully fenced backyard for safe playtime and zoomies 🐾 . New to this platform but not new to pet sitting. I’ve cared for pets a majority of my life and treat every animal like my own. I’m patient, reliable, and great with puppies, seniors, and shy or anxious pets. I follow routines closely and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well-cared for. You’ll get regular updates so you always know your fur baby is happy. Since I’m new to this platform, my rates are currently lower as I build reviews but prices will increase over time. Book now to lock in current rates 🐶🐱 Please note that we may have other dogs in the home during your dog's stay. Let us know your preference: • Crated with potty breaks and exercise every few hours, or • Free roaming with the other dogs, with access to play and go in and out of the house throughout the day. We want your dog to be as comfortable as possible during their stay. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m available for boarding from Friday through Wednesday, giving your pet plenty of attention, walks, and playtime throughout the day. I keep a flexible schedule, so your fur baby will never feel rushed or alone. For added peace of mind, I use a Ring camera at night specifically for dog boarding, so you can feel confident that your pup is safe and monitored. I have a big backyard that is fenced.
“We had such a great experience with Annie! She’s incredibly attentive, communicative, and has such a wonderful personality. I really appreciated how often she checked in and kept us updated—it gave us so much peace of mind. Our pup had the best time with her, and we’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust! Already confirmed for next weekend.”
“Thank you so much Briana for taking such great care of our two furry babies. I felt so at ease being away for "12 days" knowing our babies was in such caring hands. See you again next year.”
“My dog was very comfortable with Rekha. My dog is usually very nervous and I could tell she enjoyed her stay. Rekha and her family are very nice people and I would recommend her dogsitting to anyone.”
“Kirsten was absolutely wonderful and Archie had a great time exploring her home. She kept us informed and provided pictures of our boy so we knew he was okay. Archie can't wait to be back. Thank you, Kirsten!”
“I was really nervous about leaving Lewis behind because he's still recovering from surgery (the wound is healed, but he's still fragile), but Jennifer did a great job of keeping his activity restricted while still making sure both of my dogs got lots of love. She also provided regular (2x/day) updates and daily pictures, so I never had to wonder how they were doing. I will absolutely be using her again when I need a sitter in this area.”
“My pup had a great time at this doggie resort- the large backyard, shade and Zuko made it a wonderful place for my nervous girl. Seeing how Marilee interacted with Monina gave me the peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. Will definitely rebook whenever I need to travel.”
“It was such a comfort to leave our boy with someone who knows animals as well as Amanda. She updated us with honesty and kindness, and let us know he was a good boy. She’s just the best and I will ask for her services next time we’re out of town without our dog. She also accommodated us last minute since our plans changed quickly. She’s a gem!”
“Ann is the BEST!! This was my first time using Rover and leaving my pups for more than a day; I was sooo nervous!! But Ann made me and my pups feel so comfortable right from the intro meeting!! I have an older Chiweenie who was abused and doesn't do well with people and new situations...Ann showed me pictures daily and was very responsive each time I reached out. My baby was getting pets, and sitting right beside her!! She knew her medical issue the moment i mentioned it. My other baby, a teacup Pom is very clingy, and and needs walking every day. Had pictures daily of her sitting on the doggy bed or getting attention. Now, at home, she's a little less clingy!! Ann is 5 stars!!”
“Ani took SUCH amazing care of Maisy! She sent lots of pictures and updates. I honestly felt bad picking her up because she has so much fun with them! I will absolutely use Ani in the future!!”
