“Mya was amazing. I had two other sitters drop out at the last minute. She was responsive and stayed in contact both before the trip and during the trip. My older male cat doesn’t like too many people. He barely comes to me. He came straight to her during the meet and great. My house and animals were very well taken care of. I would gladly book her again if she is available.”

“Sydney was great with our very anxious and high-strung girl. She's a big dog, so it takes a lot of confidence to take that on, and I appreciate that. She also takes amazing dog pictures!”

About: I absolutely love all pets! I spent this past summer volunteering as a dog socializer and walker at Pets Lifeline Animal Shelter. I am comfortable around all dogs, all energy levels, I understand their body language, and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your animal. I will dedicate my time to loving them and prioritizing your routine. I also have a pup of my own, a pug, who loves to get out of the house and is always curious! As a UC Davis student, I plan my schedule carefully to make time for pet care throughout the week. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents to find walk times that work for both of us, and I prioritize being punctual, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s needs When I'm at your home or on walks, I adapt to your usual routine for your pet and whatever you do to make them as comfortable as possible.
“We really enjoy having Marissa come to our house and take care of our dog. She is always dependable and takes good care of them so you aren't stressing leaving them with someone.”

About: I am a owner of two maltese dogs and understand the hard work and care necessary for keeping a pet. I am a trusted and involved pet sitter in my family/friend circle. From Lovebirds to active Huskies, I have looked after them all! The key characteristics that I am qualified with are patience, attentiveness, communication, and attention to detail. Additionally, I am a second year Animal Science major at UC Davis. Many of my courses involve hands-on animal handling and husbandry knowledge. I understand that pets are family, and it's essential they feel comfortable and secure in their environment. Please feel free to message me if you’re interested in my pet sitting or dog walking services. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! I'm currently a full time student. I work my schedule around classes each quarter. During this Fall quarter I am primarily available Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday at 4:00pm. I am also available for mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 7am - 12pm. Weekends I am flexible and open! My apartment is a peaceful, pet-friendly haven! We’re right next to green spaces and the arboretum, making it ideal for long, relaxing walks. Although I share the space with three roommates, we are all dog lovers who maintain a quiet, calm lifestyle. For in-home pet sitting I aim to keep your pet relaxed in their familiar space. I maintain a low-key routine, ensuring your home stays quiet and your pet receives dedicated attention, regular outdoor exercise, and consistent care. Your pet will receive plenty of love, attention, and a relaxing place to feel right at home.
“Kelly was so fantastic with our dog all weekend. She made sure our little 60 lb girl went on fun news adventures while also getting needed downtime at home, and had excellent communication throughout. Our dog gets a little anxious under new circumstances but seemed right at home with Kelly.”


“Michelle was very reliable and provided consistent communication while we were away from our pups. Her professionalism allowed us to not worry and truly enjoy our vacation.”

About: I’ve grown up around cats and dogs my whole life. I make sure to respect the needs of each animal that I am around and only interact with them in ways that they’re comfortable with. I also have experience training dogs and would love to help with that if you’d like. I work from home most days so I have very flexible hours! :) I am a Neuroscience PhD student and can do pretty much all of my work remotely. I am very flexible with hours and will be able to give your pet as much attention as they need ! I can help however you need- I’d be happy to stay overnight if your pet needs it, though I can’t stay 24/7 since I have my own cat to take care of at home. I can take dogs on walks and give them lots of attention and play time. Or if your pet is more reclusive I can just provide some company as we exist in the same room. I’m super flexible!
“Great cat sitter from start to finish. Nayzeth followed all instructions perfectly, provided consistent updates, and clearly understands cat behavior as she does have 2 of her own. Boots, who is usually shy, warmed up quickly, which says a lot and everything was neat and tidy when I returned.”

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages and personalities. Through long-term ownership, I’ve learned how to read dog body language, understand daily routines, and respond calmly to different situations. I have a fixed class schedule during the day, but I am available outside of class hours for pet care services. I clearly communicate my availability in advance so owners know exactly when I can provide care and support. I focus on providing responsible and reliable care for the pets I do accept, and I always follow owner instructions to ensure safety, consistency, and clear expectations

“She was so attentive, kind, and helpful! She checked in many times and provided great photos and updates. My cat really liked her and felt comfortable with her! She did a great job not only caring for my cat but also going above and beyond doing tasks I didn’t ask her to do like cleaning my apartment, which was so thoughtful! She even gave her a little present at the end :) Would definitely recommend!”

“Katelyn house sit for our new golden retriever puppy, Eva, and Eva loved Katelyn so much! It gave myself and my fiance such peace of mind to have an experienced, responsible, and kind person stay with Eva while we were away. She also did a substantial amount of training with Eva while she was here as well, which we appreciated - especially since this is our first puppy. We would book Katelyn again in a heartbeat for house sitting, walking, or training!”

“We were in last minute need of a dog sitter and Madison was a true life saver! She was respectful, communicative, and handled our rowdy German Shepherd amazingly. She left our home spotless and we hope to use her again! Would highly recommend.”

About: I have cared for a wide range of animals since my childhood on a small family farm. I have bottle fed kittens to goats, trained puppies to ducks, and cared for little piglets to senior dogs. I also have some experience with medical procedures with dogs and cats, to farm animals. Experience with cats with diabetes, pets with blindness, deafness, and immobility. I enjoy caring for animals of all shapes and sizes and good care and enrichment is always my top priority! I like to check on my animals and animals I’m caring for a minimum of 3 times a day for 30 minutes each. With cats I like to spend time playing, setting up enrichment activities, and learning how they are most comfortable. With dogs I like to do a minimum of 3 walks a day followed by some of their favorite activities. I believe pets should be checked on morning, afternoon and evening at minimum. I like to follow the routine of the pets parents to a T so as to not disturb the pets while their families are gone. I think having a routine is important for a pet especially when their people/family are gone.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since I was born. I treat every pet I take care of as my own fur baby! I have experience caring for animals of every age range- from puppies to senior pets! I will work with your schedule! My current schedule has a very open availability in the mornings and afternoons! Your pet is my priority and I will ensure that your goals are met. I have multiple years of experience and I have advanced pet care skills. I am happy to handle any environment or situation and will prioritize your pets safety in every scenario.
“The best gift when you can't take your companions on a trip is to know someone will take care of them and give you a peace of mind. Ashley did. She is amazing and is a great communicator. I left behind a 14 year old blob and a 6 years skittish lab and I was worried about the younger pup. It was the 14 year old senior that kept Ashley up at night. Ashley kept me posted on the situation, we kept the communication open to make sure Hunter is ok. Things happened but the best way to know how awesome your substitute is, is to experience their problem solving ability. Ashley got everything under control. I highly recommend Ashley and would love to get her help again. She is definitely more than 5 stars rating.”

About: I have owned dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes since I was born. Now, I have worked as a vet assistant for 6 years in both general practice and oncology. I have helped with emergencies for all kinds of breeds and done overnight care several times. I also work and volunteer at shelters consistently so I know how to deal with animal stress. I have never met an animal I didn't love no matter its personality and demeanor so I know they are in good hands. I am a college student but have gaps in my day to go back to my apartment and take them out. I would never leave a pet at home for more than 2 hours and live with just my fiance and I also well equipped in pet care, but I will be doing the caregiving. I love every furry friend and it would be a joy rather than a chore to help care for each pet. I am well versed in medication administration, feeding, playtime, small training activities, and more. Depending on the breed or species, I would ensure I am thorough with each pets need and go from there whether thats exercise and play or just chilling on the couch.

“Jasmine was very caring to my baby kitties. She regularly sent us updates on how they're doing and what they're doing. My kitties are shy and Jazmine was patient and gave them time to get accustomed to her. After they opened up to her, the kitties loved rubbing up to her and eventually cuddling with her. She also left my house as clean as it was when I left. I'm so glad I found Jazmine. Now I know who to book next time. 😊”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Willowbank
Mya was great! She’s very professional, on time, confirmed dates and time to meet and the animals loved her. When we arrived back home the dogs were excited to see us but were obviously well taken care of. I would absolutely book her to house sit for us again.

Marissa watched our two dogs and 8 frogs for our wedding weekend. This was our first time leaving them with a stranger, so we were a little nervous. The dogs can be a little ornery, one of them takes daily meds, and not many people have experience with frogs. We set up a meet and greet and several day time visits leading up to the weekend so everyone could get to know each other. By the time we left them, I was confident Marissa could handle both the dogs and the frogs. Everything went smoothly!

Ly was wonderful with Mochi! 🤍 She took such great care of him, accommodated his schedule, and even went the extra mile to introduce a new game to play with him. We really appreciate all the love, attention, and care she gave him. Mochi seemed happy to spend time with her, which gave us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend Ly to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pet with genuine love and care!

Xitlalli and her boyfriend were absolute gems and easily among the best pet sitters we’ve ever had. After a terrible experience with a previous sitter that left us genuinely anxious about leaving our dog again, we were pretty nervous. We had also recently lost our second dog to cancer, so leaving our other dog in someone else’s care for over a week was especially hard for us. Thankfully, our meet and greet with Xitlalli and her boyfriend went incredibly well, and we immediately felt comfortable with them. They bonded with him right away and treated him like he was their own. Throughout our trip, they went above and beyond, walking him twice a day, every day, keeping him on his normal routine, and giving him so much love and attention. Their daily updates and photos of our sweet boy gave us so much peace of mind and made being away from him much easier. What meant the most to us though was how thoughtful they were beyond just caring for our dog. When we came home, they had left us flowers and the sweetest card. After everything we had recently been through, that gesture honestly meant so much to us. It really showed us that they care about the people behind the pets they look after too, and that’s something we’ll never forget. They also took wonderful care of our home and left everything spotless. Xitlalli and her boyfriend are kind, reliable, communicative, and genuinely caring people who clearly love animals. We feel incredibly lucky to have found them and will absolutely book with them again. We know we can completely trust them with both our dog and our home. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters and would recommend them without hesitation!

Kelly was so great with our fur baby, Nova! Nova is a pretty laid back girl, but since this was our first time using a pet sitting service instead of relying on friends or family, I was a little nervous and cautious about a few things... Kelly completely put my mind at ease and was so kind, accommodating, and easygoing about everything I asked for Novie! She stayed at our house with Nova and made sure she was happy, comfortable, and had plenty of company while we were away! (: She also sent us photos and video updates, which helped me feel so much more relaxed (it was wonderful seeing our girl being her happy, usual self)! I would highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for someone who will make sure both you and your pet have a great experience! (Knowing that she is also in a veterinary program gave me additional peace of mind because Nova sometimes has tummy troubles) I felt confident that if anything happened, Kelly would know how to help and make sure our girl had whatever she needed! We’re so grateful for the care she gave Nova and finding her for future trips!! (:

Jenna did an excellent job caring for our Great Pyr and an elderly cat with special needs while we were away. She even dealt with an escaped chicken and an ant problem and the house was left better than she found it. We appreciated how communicative she was and felt like our animals were well taken care of.

Jenny is an outstanding pet sitter! She housesat and watched our dog for a week and she made it so easy for us to relax knowing she holding down the fort at home. She sent us detailed daily messages and photos of our pup and she seemed to get our reactive dog and what she needed right away. She took her on nice long walks and we felt confident in her ability to handle the pulling and barking that usually ensues. Jenny was also so great about remembering every little detail about caring for the house and confirmed with us when packages were brought it, garbage cans taken out to the street, etc. Most of all, she seemed to really gain the trust of our dog and we could see from the pictures and videos that she sent that our dog not only became comfortable with Jenny, she seemed to be having fun, looking happy and cuddling up with her new bud. We really could not have asked for a better sitter and would highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a trustworthy, highly competent, communicative sitter.

Rachel's open communication was great. She was upfront with her schedule. There was a misunderstanding due to a booking error in my part, but she remained open to adjusting the booking and doing a meet and greet. I have one senior dog that requires medication and kidney diet. Rachel was able to keep meds and feeding up for us during a trip.

Liz communicated daily about Anika’s routines. She followed the directions for both dog and house care to the “T”. She touched base about her arrival and departure at the beginning and ending of her stay, making the transition for Anika seamless. I certainly would recommend Liz for anyone who needs a person to stay in their home to care for pets!

This is my second time booking with XingYuan and I am very pleased with the care she gave to Koko. She sent me pictures and communicated consistently throughout the pet sitting which was very reassuring given that it was Koko’s first time away from family for several days :)

Mira watched our energetic rottweiler and cats for 2 weeks and did great. She is very sweet and gave me the confidence to leave my house and all my animals, despite having some negative pet sitter experiences in the past. She was quick to respond to my questions, easy to communicate with and asked smart questions. When our senior cat had several urinary accidents in the house, she notified me right away and dealt with it. The house looked tidy and cared for when I arrived home and all my animals were happy. I'd definitely recommend Mira.

Michelle house sat for our cats while we were on vacation and we never once worried about how they were doing. She shared nice updates and pics every day, kept up with their meds, and took great care of our house! She is a top-tier cat sitter and we would trust her to look after them again in a heartbeat!
