“Honestly I’m at a loss of words with how amazing Mel is. We were beyond scared to board our puppy and almost canceled our trip but with the reviews and how prompt he was with replying, we decided to try it. I’m so glad we did, 1000/10 would recommend.”
“We (including our dachshund Monty!) absolutely loved working with Nadine and Louie. They were gentle and welcoming and took such good care of our dog moving through a period of anxiety. We're so grateful to connect with them and will be returning.”
“I left my 5 year old maltipoo for a 4 night stay with Clairece and I cannot say enough about her, from her *Terrific, prompt communications, to her *Friendly, kind approach, to her *Excellent, detailed check-ins throughout the day, which she initiated; complete with pictures and updates with several bery happy looking walks and even couch time. I especially appreciated *How much Clairece cared and loved on my pup! It was 4th of July weekend, so I anticipated my pup to be nervous. Chauncey can already be a bit fidgity and clingy to his person. No problems though! He obviously fell for Clairece😍, as every photo showed a big grin across his face and that told the whole story! Also, when Chauncey wasnt really eating his food because of separation from me, Clairece quickly pivoted to giving him fresh food with my approval. I could not have been happier with this whole experience. Will 100% use Clairece's services again! Im sure Chauncey cant wait to go back!”
“We went out of town to visit family for Christmas. The concerned feeling I normally get each time I think about my dog at home without us is immediately replaced with a nod and smile as I remember ‘she’s with Sandra and Bruce, she probably won’t want to come home, she loves it there so much’. We get complete peace of mind when Gracie is with Sandra.”
“My dog Rocky stayed at Veronica’s house for 8 nights while I went on a trip to Iceland this past week and I am beyond happy and grateful with his stay. What I loved the most is that she would send me photos and videos of Rocky on a daily basis so I was up to date on his daily activities while I was so far away. As soon as I arrived to the states I went and picked him up at around 10:30 pm. Rocky seemed very content when I arrived and continued to play and run around with the rest of the dogs. As soon as we got home Rocky fell sleep. I am very happy with Veronica and her professionalism. I will definitely use her again when I go away, she’s EXCELLENT!!”
“Diana was absolutely amazing! She took incredible care of Stark and Rufio over the Thanksgiving weekend, and we had complete peace of mind the entire time. Her communication was a 10/10 she sent daily updates, photos, and even surprised us with adorable holiday pictures of our pups by the Christmas tree. Such a thoughtful touch! Her home was spotless, our boys were clearly comfortable and happy, and she truly went above and beyond in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Honestly, 10/10. We will definitely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Our two-day dog boarding with Keota was absolutely wonderful! Our dog settled in quickly and happily interacted with the hosts and their other pets. A huge thank you to Keota and her family for taking such great care of our dog while we were able to explore Sequoia Park. Keota was very attentive, regularly keeping us posted and sharing pictures and video of our dog. We definitely recommend them—an excellent place to leave your beloved four-legged pet!”
“Thank you Carola, We are very satisfied with the care we received for hunter. Carola keep us updated with lots of pictures of all the activities they done throughout the stay. She went all out and even shower and brush hunters coat. She really took care of our dog and We are so thankful and definitely will book again soon. Many thanks and highly recommended.”

“This was my first experience using Rover and I had my reservations, but Patty was great from start to finish! She really made me feel at ease with the daily updates and photos. I can't thank her enough for taking such good care of my pup. Will book again for sure!”

About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.
About: I've taken care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors for 4 years now. I have some experience grooming others' dogs, however mostly my own. They still loved the way their buddy came out and continue to come to me! I enjoy doing this job so I decided to make it more public. Hope I can help many other people and their babies even more! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is open and flexible. I don't like to leave pets alone for too long, so for no more than 4 hours. Whether it's just to give them a potty break or to give them the attention they deserve. I have a fenced yard and live in a community with a dog park. How I take care of your babies is up to you. I understand every dog is different and so if their owner! So just let me know what you do for them and I will integrate it into their daily schedule. During the summer, the dogs will be kept inside an air conditioned home. Preferably when no one is home then they will be in a crate, however if they are guaranteed not to chew on personal items or pee inside, then they can roam inside freely. During winter, dogs can be kept outside, but it really depends on the owner's preferences.
About: I have taken care of pets, cats and dogs, from a young age. I grew up a cat and dog owner and have always loved my pets. I have experience training young dogs for sit, stay, fetch, lay down, roll over, wait, and go. I also regularly pet sit for family members. I am currently not working due to summer break, so I have full open availability. When school starts in August, I will be available evening after 5 and all day weekends. I am hoping to find pet sitting for weekends and dog walks for week days. I currently have a 3 bedroom apartment that is pet friendly. I can take care of small dogs/ cats at my own home and able to take them for walks around my neighborhood. I am willing and comfortable to pet sit in the client’s home and to go to the client’s home to take pups for walks.

About: Im very good with animals and tending for their needs. When my friends ask for my help I happily agree whether its picking up after them, giving baths, taking them on walks or just playing. I've volunteered at the bark for life in Exeter and helped run the booth, which made me realize how fun it was to see dogs and do something fun with them for a good cause. I really love animals so I always want to do the best, to take care of them as well as make sure they are happy and healthy no matter how big or small. I also have Experience house sitting families dogs. The longest I've house sat for a family friend was around 6 months. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to care of your pets!

“Macee did a wonderful job checking in on my cats while we were out of town for an extended period of time. One cat had a healing cut that I was worried about being unmonitored for so long. Macee was a great communicator before, during, and after her check in and sent numerous pictures to ensure that we were happy with her work and if she needed to do anything more while we were away. I will definitely be using her again in the future and will recommend her to anyone in the area!”
About: I worked as a professional dog walker and sitter in San Francisco in 2019. As a huge dog lover, this was a dream come true! I worked for a local company, Citizen Hound, and fell in love with every aspect of the job (and every pup!). I was responsible for two packs of 6-8 dogs who I would pick up/drop off and take for one hour walks every day. Typically these walks would be off leash, at the beach or a park, so I went through extensive training to receive my walking permit. Having grown up with dogs of my own, I understand that dogs are owner's babies, making sure to treat each dog as if they were my own! I sat many of the dogs in my packs as well as other dogs in the company that year. I have been volunteering at animal shelters for the past 7 years and therefore have experience walking a variety of dogs. I have sat blind and sick dogs, so I am comfortable with medications as well as other special needs (eye drops, IBS, separation anxiety, etc). When sitting, I love to take dogs on hikes or even to the dog park, with owners permission, to make sure they are getting exercise. I always update owners frequently and send lot of pictures! I miss all of the dogs from my packs and am looking to create new connections with both dogs and owners here in Sacramento. I would prefer to have regular clients, however I am also open to one time walks/sits. Although I am just getting started on Rover in the area, I highly encourage you to look up reviews for Citizen Hound to see the standard of care I expect of myself (: I’m currently enrolled in an online master’s program and am self employed, so my schedule is very open and flexible! I would especially love to help out during the late morning and early afternoon hours while owners are at work/school. My apartment is unfortunately not pet friendly, however I have experience pet sitting in owner’s homes. I have found this to be especially beneficial for dogs who like to stick to their regular routine and surroundings. I love taking dogs on adventures during our sits, with owner permission, and make sure to send frequent updates and photos!
“Words cannot express how amazing Erica was to my little cat Calvin!!! She took great care of him, kept me informed and went above and beyond to show my super shy cat some love! She is definitely going to be my go-to sitter and gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Definitely would recommend!!”
“Patricia did amazing job checking in on Calvin my cat! She updated me and even took pictures. She made sure he had food and water! It definitely gave me peace of mind going on a trip I’m being away from him for the first time”

“Clairece took wonderful care of Josie during our California road trip! From the moment we arrived, she was so friendly and welcoming, which immediately put us at ease. She has a great yard for dogs to explore, and we loved that she took the time to thoughtfully introduce Josie to her own pets. Throughout the stay, Clairece sent us photos of Josie happily exploring the yard and getting comfortable, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were on the road. We truly appreciated the care and attention she gave Josie and would absolutely book with her again!”

But after letting her know we had a vehicle emergency, she offered to look after our dog for the night and even a whole second day and night while we stayed at a hotel and got a rental car sorted out.

I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.
About: I grew up with many dogs and cats, and have a well-trained dog of my own. I’d love to hang out with your pets and give them the attention they need while you’re gone :) I’m currently able to make my own schedule, so I’m able to be flexible and work whenever needed! I’m avaible to house-sit in the evenings and over-night. I cannot take your pets into my home, but I can check in on your pets, feed them, bathe them, take them for walks, play with them, and whatever else may be needed!
“Madison was a joy to work with! She was responsive to all our communications and adjusted the walking schedule according to our local weather. She was very patient with our dog, kept us informed of her walks, and sent photos every day. We highly recommend using her and we plan on using her services again.”
About: I have always been around pets. I have two dogs of my own. When family members go on vacation I will take care of their dogs. I have took their dogs to go outside use the restroom, feed them, walk them. I bathe my own pets, feed, and walk them as well. My pets are trained to be inside and outside. I currently work two pet time jobs that I set my own schedule for. I typically am free in the mornings and in the evenings. I have a fenced back yard. My back yard is split into sections so I can easily keep my dogs away from other dogs I care for if the owner is uncomfortable. I have plenty of room in my house for a crate or puppy pads and more. My home is very welcoming to pets.
About: I've taken care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors for 4 years now. I have some experience grooming others' dogs, however mostly my own. They still loved the way their buddy came out and continue to come to me! I enjoy doing this job so I decided to make it more public. Hope I can help many other people and their babies even more! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is open and flexible. I don't like to leave pets alone for too long, so for no more than 4 hours. Whether it's just to give them a potty break or to give them the attention they deserve. I have a fenced yard and live in a community with a dog park. How I take care of your babies is up to you. I understand every dog is different and so if their owner! So just let me know what you do for them and I will integrate it into their daily schedule. During the summer, the dogs will be kept inside an air conditioned home. Preferably when no one is home then they will be in a crate, however if they are guaranteed not to chew on personal items or pee inside, then they can roam inside freely. During winter, dogs can be kept outside, but it really depends on the owner's preferences.
About: I have taken care of cats and dogs for my family members for two years. I rented a house and the owner left his two Great Pyrenees to be in my care for the amount of time I lived there. I have a 3 year old pit bull and a 2 year old German Shepherd I love and care for now. I also have a 2 year old kitty that I love. All animals need love time and energy and I adore animals and their unique personalities! I’m currently working a full time job but I do get Friday- Sundays off which allows me to spend a lot of time with my animals but I know a lot of people who work weekends and or want to travel and I am willing to help people with their fur babies while they’re away. With my families, I make sure to establish a relationship first and make your fur baby trust me and enjoy being around me. If I go to your home, I will always ask where their favorite spot it or if you would like to crate them while I leave. I do enjoy walking them and feeding them and giving treats to enforce positive behavior.
About: I have taken care of many different pets throughout all my life, i like to care of all animals that people wanted me to look after. I've had the pleasure of looking after my family's pets, neighbors pets,complete strangers pets and my friends pets. I'm a student at a online college with a flexible school schedule, so i'll have plenty of time to look after and care for you furry friends. Our yard is fenced so all the pets are secure, they are all well feed everyday and are cleaned as well as groomed all around. I am currently doing my college classes online, so it should be quite easy to work your pet into my schedule for the foreseeable future. I have a fenced off yard and i have a little kiddie pool for them to play in,plenty of pet toys around and more than enough pet food.
About: I’ve taken care of many kinds of dogs since I was 12 and now I’m 18. I have a big dog of my own that’s playful and loving. I love all dogs and cats because they’re so sweet and caring and give unconditional love. I currently work part-time at McDonald’s so my schedule could be a bit mixed up but on my free time I would love to spend time with pets! I can’t take care of pets in my home because I have no yard. However I would be a great dog walker/babysitter in your lovely pets home!
About: Im very good with animals and tending for their needs. When my friends ask for my help I happily agree whether its picking up after them, giving baths, taking them on walks or just playing. I've volunteered at the bark for life in Exeter and helped run the booth, which made me realize how fun it was to see dogs and do something fun with them for a good cause. I really love animals so I always want to do the best, to take care of them as well as make sure they are happy and healthy no matter how big or small. I also have Experience house sitting families dogs. The longest I've house sat for a family friend was around 6 months. I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time to care of your pets! My schedule is very flex able and I'd love to work around your schedule. Before anything I like to gain the trust of the dog to make sure they feel safe and comfortable with me. I haven taken care of a family dog that had anxiety meeting new people, so I implemented special techniques ( such as having my back faced away from the dog and giving them a treat) being very patient and friendly is how I make sure they feel safe.
About: I have had 3 dogs in the past that I love dearly, I enjoy going on walks with them and I love playing as well. I am currently not working and just taking a summer art class for college. I am free almost every day of the week and any time. Having a fence yard, a good neighborhood to walk around and friendly pets would be great. A good schedule for the times and how much food to give them would be great as well

About: I’ve worked with dogs as young as 8 weeks to as old as 15 years. I’ve also worked with dogs as small as a chihuahua to as big as a poodle. Im a college student and have some flexibility in my schedule but working weekends is the best time to pet sit, however if you message me about a specific time during the week id love to see if we can work something out. I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets, whether I’m in their home for a drop-in visit or staying overnight. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines, so pets feel secure and cared for in their familiar surroundings. Safety is my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and I make sure pets are never left in unsafe situations. I also respect my clients’ homes as if they were my own, keeping things tidy and secure while they’re away. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind knowing both their pets and their home are in trustworthy hands.

“Honestly I’m at a loss of words with how amazing Mel is. We were beyond scared to board our puppy and almost canceled our trip but with the reviews and how prompt he was with replying, we decided to try it. I’m so glad we did, 1000/10 would recommend.”
“I left my 5 year old maltipoo for a 4 night stay with Clairece and I cannot say enough about her, from her *Terrific, prompt communications, to her *Friendly, kind approach, to her *Excellent, detailed check-ins throughout the day, which she initiated; complete with pictures and updates with several bery happy looking walks and even couch time. I especially appreciated *How much Clairece cared and loved on my pup! It was 4th of July weekend, so I anticipated my pup to be nervous. Chauncey can already be a bit fidgity and clingy to his person. No problems though! He obviously fell for Clairece😍, as every photo showed a big grin across his face and that told the whole story! Also, when Chauncey wasnt really eating his food because of separation from me, Clairece quickly pivoted to giving him fresh food with my approval. I could not have been happier with this whole experience. Will 100% use Clairece's services again! Im sure Chauncey cant wait to go back!”
“My dog Rocky stayed at Veronica’s house for 8 nights while I went on a trip to Iceland this past week and I am beyond happy and grateful with his stay. What I loved the most is that she would send me photos and videos of Rocky on a daily basis so I was up to date on his daily activities while I was so far away. As soon as I arrived to the states I went and picked him up at around 10:30 pm. Rocky seemed very content when I arrived and continued to play and run around with the rest of the dogs. As soon as we got home Rocky fell sleep. I am very happy with Veronica and her professionalism. I will definitely use her again when I go away, she’s EXCELLENT!!”
“Diana was absolutely amazing! She took incredible care of Stark and Rufio over the Thanksgiving weekend, and we had complete peace of mind the entire time. Her communication was a 10/10 she sent daily updates, photos, and even surprised us with adorable holiday pictures of our pups by the Christmas tree. Such a thoughtful touch! Her home was spotless, our boys were clearly comfortable and happy, and she truly went above and beyond in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Honestly, 10/10. We will definitely be booking with her again. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Our two-day dog boarding with Keota was absolutely wonderful! Our dog settled in quickly and happily interacted with the hosts and their other pets. A huge thank you to Keota and her family for taking such great care of our dog while we were able to explore Sequoia Park.

About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities.

“Gail was a pleasure to work with! She is just a sweetheart and makes you feel totally comfortable to leave your loved one with her. She sent us pictures throughout the whole stay with her and updated us on how our mini poodle is feeling the entire time. She was easy to communicate with as well when booking and coordinating the drop off and pick up. Would totally recommend anyone to use her.”
