“Erica was absolutely amazing with my cat, Tigger. She was so attentive, gentle, and truly caring throughout the entire time. It’s not easy finding someone you can trust with your pet, but Erica made me feel completely at ease. Tigger clearly felt comfortable and well cared for—couldn’t recommend her more!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Nicolas! From the start, communication was clear and reassuring. He dropped in on our two cats regular, sent us adorable photo updates, and really went above and beyond. Nicolas made sure our cats were well-fed, had fresh water, and got plenty of playtime and affection. It was clear they were comfortable and happy in his care—something every pet parent hopes for while they’re away. We’re so grateful to have found Nicolas and wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: With over a decade of firsthand ownership and training, I bring unique expertise to caring for your furry babies! Specializing in breeds with high socialization needs like the Chinese Shar Pei, I understand the importance of patience and consistency in training. My compassionate approach extends to senior pets and those with disabilities, as I've spent years tending to their unique medical and emotional needs. I strive to build trust between you and your furry companions though providing exceptional care and attention to your beloved companions. I am available part time. I have open availability all day Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays. If none of these work for you, feel free to contact me and we can look at alternative times. I have experience with walking and monitoring dogs safely within the yard. I will be vigilant to surroundings at all times and have crate trained several dogs in the past if crating is desired of the owners and beneficial for the dogs safety. I understand the importance of both mental and physical stimulation in dogs and will be sure your furry friends has both needs met while you are away!
“Sam was super attentive to my kitty girls and send photos with each visit. I even had an unexpected hiccup that he dealt with totally smoothly. Would book with him again :)”
“Shannon was so sweet and able to take my cat last minute for an overnight stay. My cat felt very comfortable and immediately acclimated to her home. She sent photo updates and responded quickly! I’d definitely book again.”
“Neo LOVES visits from Ashley and her little angels. Great peace-of-mind while I am away.”
About: Hello Rover friends, I am officially a Rover sitter. To all who know me the animal kingdom has been my world ever since I was a little girl. I guarantee your pet will have a forever friend and unconditional love. They are always priority when they are with me. What truly sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience and dedication to animal welfare. For over 30 years, I’ve been actively involved with rescue organizations—fostering dogs, volunteering at adoption events, and conducting home inspections to ensure safe placements. I also work closely with shelters to evaluate a dog’s behavior and temperament, helping rescues understand which environments each dog will thrive in. One of the most rewarding experiences of my life was raising orphaned newborn puppies—feeding them around the clock, keeping them warm, and nurturing them into strong, healthy companions. That level of care, patience, and love is something I bring to every animal I look after. I specialize in: • 🍼 Newborn & orphaned puppy care • 🐾 Puppy training support * Animal CPR • 🐶 Senior pet care • 🐕 Rescue & trauma-informed handling • 💊 Medication administration (oral/topical) • 🐈 Cat care & companionship • 🐴 Comfortable around horses • 🏠 Multi-pet household management • 📋 Shelter temperament assessments & home checks Every pet has a story, and I’m here to be the calm, loving chapter when you can’t be there. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s what I truly love to do! I structure my days around the animals I care for, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I have dedicated my life volunteering in Animal Welfare. I like to consider myself as the neighborhood dog whisper. There hasn't been a dog that I cant handle. With my flexible schedule and home-based work, I’m able to be fully available for your pet’s needs throughout the day and night. I’m available weekdays and weekends, including holidays, and I can accommodate a wide range of routines—whether your pet is high-energy and active or needs calm, consistent care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family and ensure they’re comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way. In your home, I respect your space and routines. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and provide updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. I also understand how to read animal behavior, especially in rescue or sensitive pets, so I approach every situation calmly and with care. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, pet-friendly environment. I keep a clean, safe space with no hazards or stressors, and I always monitor interactions closely. I never leave pets unattended outside, and I make sure each animal has their own space to rest, relax, and feel at home. With over 30 years of hands-on experience—including rescue fostering, behavior assessments, and newborn puppy care—I provide a loving, trustworthy, and safe experience every time.
About: I adopted a senior dog 6 years ago and sadly, lost him this year. This inspired me to start walking/sitting again so I can share my love of dogs with more furry friends. Throughout my teens and college years I dog sat until deciding to become a pet parent myself. I am very comfortable administering medications and catering to seniors unique needs. I even have a bike trailer if your dog has mobility issues, but still enjoys the outdoors. I also have experience with some farm animals including chickens, goats, and pigs. I love taking care of unique animals and am open to farm sitting as well. I am currently between “normal” jobs so this is my one and only gig at the moment. I don’t mind because it means I’m extra flexible and available to give the best care possible! I try to keep to your pet’s schedule as closely as possible to make sure they’re not too thrown by having the most important person in their life gone. I focus on enrichment and exercise to keep your pet busy and happy while you’re away.
“Sara is the best! She is super responsive, takes great care of my cat Josephine, sends the cutest photos with detailed updates, and overall is an absolute wonderful sitter. She goes above and beyond every time. Would recommend her to anyone!!”
About: I would also like to note that I have experience in keeping and caring for large breed dogs, such as the shepherds, as well as medium and small breed dogs. I can work with several animals at the same time. I am also an expert in maintaining healthy dog nutrition, which allows me to use this knowledge, for example, in the postoperative period or a number of diets after illnesses, as well as when the animal refuses to eat due to stress or other circumstances. I this regard. I have the opportunity to prepare a balanced feed that allows you to fully restore the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract, and also helps the pet to come to a state of calm and relaxation. In turn, I can guarantee that your pets will find in me a wonderful and loving friend, and you an impeccable assistant who will keep home in perfect order during your absence. My clients come from various fields of activity. But they all agree that I am the best worker in the animal care industry. As a result of long-term and close interaction with me over several years, my clients unconditionally acknowledge the fact that an unconditional trusting contact is established between me and their animals, filled with love and mutual understanding. This allows my clients to have complete peace of mind and confidence that their pets are in a completely comfortable and protected environment filled with love and care while they are away.My clients also emphasize the high level of trust in me, as well as my highest professional and human qualities, such as honesty, integrity, sincerity, kindness and responsiveness. The ability to quickly react to a situation and recognize the needs of a pet, attention to detail, as well as unconditional love for pets. All of the above naturally leads to complete mutual understanding and trust at the highest level. I look forward to meeting your pets to give them endless love, happiness, surround them with love and attention, so that in every minute of your absence your pets feel only warmth and peace. I work exclusively in my clients homes because i believe that being in an unfamiliar environment can be stressful for a pet, unlike being in a home environment.
About: Hi, I’m Hank! Michelle and I happily live here in the beautiful golden state with our two beloved fur babies. We have a poodle mix and a terrier mix. Sophie, very attentive and friendly, and Franco offer us unconditional companionship. I like to think of myself as a very calming spirit, a friend to all canine pals. We look forward to meeting your four legged buddy and making him an honorary member of our family! Having undergone advanced screening, I have been met face-to-face and my home has been inspected. I will be able to provide your dog with the care and attention he deserves while staying with me. Take a look at my photos to check out my home and fully fenced-in yard to see where your dog would be spending his doggy vacation. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life, always marveling over their insight and unconditional delight for life. Oh the joys of having a canine companion by your side! What is not to love? Sophie and Franco are very best furry friends. They are very well socialized and are excited to meet your special dog(s)! About my yard I have a huge (3/4 acre) fully fenced-in yard. Sophie and Franco love rolling around in the grass and taking naps under the shaded trees. They would be thrilled to have their new furry playmate join them.
“Silvia was great! Super communicative and our kittens seemed so happy she came by.”
“Tracy is the best!”
“Si-Mon went above and beyond with caring for our kitty while we were away. I’ve never felt safer knowing that our kitty was being well taken care of as he got sick just days before we had to leave. Administering meds and giving him extra love and attention was greatly appreciated. Thank you!”
“Christine watched my cat over an extended weekend and she was great! She sent photos regularly and was very flexible with my pick up/drop off times. She has a little cute fluffy dog who was really sweet with my cat. I have no complaints at all! I highly recommend and will definitely book with Christine again.”
About: I have worked in the animal industry for 16 years running holistic pet supply stores in the Pacific Northwest. For most of these years, I had my loyal companion Roscoe the Pit bull and Baloo the Lynx Point Siamese. I co-owned a pet supply shop in Portland, OR called Meat for Cats and Dogs for 7 years. During my time as a store owner, I formed strong relationships with clients and their pets, many of whom I would pet sit and house sit for. This was a rewarding experience for me because I was able to provide a reliable service to people who were already loyal customers of mine. As a pet sitter I am well versed in pet care in many ways: diet, administering medications, training, activity needs including playtime and any length walk, and the importance of maintaining daily routines. Not having any of my own current pets makes providing overnight services incredibly easy which gives me almost full availability. I currently only work a few weekends a month, doing demo's for a dog food company called California Dog Kitchen. This gives me full Monday-Friday availability (including all overnights), and morning and evening availability on some weekends (still including overnights). Since I am only available to provide care at client's homes, I can follow the animals exact schedule per usual Monday-Friday and on weekends I can provide care outside of the hours of around 11am-6pm.

Her heart is so big and she even has experience with aggressive dogs.

She is so loving and caring to her own dog babies, she puts them above everything else. My dog is crazy and he loves her so much, he always gives her lots of kisses and he is so excited to see her. I cannot recommend her enough, you would be lucky to have her take care of your dog.”

Olesia A.
“I give my highest recommendation to Olesia. I have known Olesia since late 2022, when she began house and dog-sitting for us. Since then, we have used her services exclusively for our frequent weekend trips and longer stays. I estimate that we have engaged her services at least 10 times. We have always been happy with her care of our home and our dog, Benjamin. We trust her without reservation. In particular, Olesia developed a loving bond with Benjamin, an older dog with many health challenges. She managed Ben’s care lovingly, taking him on gentle walks every day and even cooking special food to address his weight loss as he aged. Ben clearly adored Olesia and looked forward to her stays. I was comforted, knowing that Ben’s care was in good hands.”
