House Sitting Avena

“After our previous house/pet sitter moved away, we were nervous to have a new person caring for our 3 dogs and 1 cat. One of our dogs can be quite vocal and barks a lot at strangers, but Maria did a great job reassuring us that she was excited to care for our pets and win our bark-y dog over. Maria stayed overnight in our home with the animals and was great about communicating with us about how our dogs and cat were doing. She was also able to get our bark-y dog to be comfortable and calm quickly after we left which was a huge relief to us! We received several pictures throughout our trip, our animals were safe and taken care of, and the house was just as we left it. Maria is very friendly, kind, and responsible. I would recommend Maria to anyone looking for a house/pet sitter.”

“Regina did a great job watching our dogs in our home for 2 nights! She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and took great care of them. We came home to happy pups and really appreciated having someone we could trust with them. We would definitely have her watch them again!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities and truly love spending time with animals. I’m a patient, dependable, and attentive caregiver who treats every pet like family. My dogs have always been a huge part of my life, including my sweet RayRay, who taught me so much about patience, love, and the special bond we share with our pets. I recently adopted my French Bulldog, Ichabod (“Iggy”), and I’m continuing to learn and understand each dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), or lots of love and attention, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I love being able to include pets in my daily routine. I plan my schedule around making sure they get the care, attention, and love they need. Whether it’s walks, playtime, meals, or just keeping them company, I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their family is away. Creating a safe and comfortable space for pets is very important to me. I know how much trust it takes to leave someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I pay attention to the little things — their habits, boundaries, and what helps them feel relaxed. In my home or yours, I’ll treat your pet and your space with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

“Donna was absolutely amazing with our Biscuit. She was incredibly well executed in terms of our dog's medication needs and care. She was so wonderful in her communications with us during our trip and considerate in her actions in and outside of our home. We would invite her back anytime and would highly recommend her services to friends and neighbors 😄”

“Makayla so obviously loves animals! Our 11 month old Lab “puppy” is crazy about her and could care less when my husband and I leave. I don’t need to worry at all while we’re away, plus we get photos and updates too. She’s intelligent, caring and personable. We will most definitely call on her again. Jan &Tex Billings”

“Ashlee is the best! I am beyond happy and satisfied with my experience. Let me start with, I was very hesitant about using Rover, but meeting Ashlee and the relationship she had with my fur babies put my mind at ease. I will use her from now on and refer to my friends and family. She sent me pictures and updates every day, which I loved. She noticed my girl needed her donut to stop licking her paws. Coming home and seeing how well they were taken care of is the best and stress-free.”

“Natalia is wonderful. She took such great care of my elder cat when I was away. Great communication, timely photos, and she left the house cleaner than I left it. I’m grateful for Natalia and will definitely ask her to care for Precious in the future. 🤗”

“Daniella is wonderfully attentive to our 4-month-old puppy’s needs. Ash is still in the midst of potty training, and Daniella patiently observes Ash’s cues to ensure he makes his potty breaks on time. She doesn’t hesitate to spend time with him in his indoor playpen, actively engaging him in play while ensuring his safety, especially now that he can reach the top panel at chest height. Daniella also keeps our daily journal up to date with Ash’s meals and potty schedule, which helps us stay on track with his routine. We’re so grateful for her care and attention.”

“My first time using Rover and it was a great experience. My animals obviously loved Amanda and it was apparent they were well cared for. Definitely scheduling Amanda again.”

“Ariel gave amazing care to our elderly dog who needs medications and can get quite lonely. She went above and beyond to give her cuddles and love so that she didn’t feel alone while we were gone. We will definitely be using Ariel again 💗”

We have the space completely fenced off! Have a curious escape artist? We have options for fully enclosed safe outside time (yard section with high fences, a fully enclosed catio, etc). I am passionate to provide dog boarding that’s like a second home to those that don’t want their dogs stuck in metal crates like typical boarding goes for dogs at vets, groomers, or boarding facilities. Here your dog will be happy to see us, and eager to come back! I have one crate only that is provided if needed, but I am happy to use a crate you bring if your dog is crate trained for night time. If not, then they will be free to roam and choose a couch to sleep on or snuggle with us in the bed. I have cared for a large variety of animals personally and professionally over the course of my entire life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Life is better with animals and I want to share the love and help wherever needed! I am someone that has fostered/rescued and returned any lost pets I pass by, I just can’t drive by without trying to do something. Here all animals are part of the family.

Full of love, fun, and snuggles!

About: I have spent a lot of time pet sitting family dogs, including powerful breeds like Pitbulls, Belgian Malinois, and German Shepherds. This hands-on experience taught me exactly how important structure and leash training are for a safe environment. Being a shorter person, I prefer to specialize in walking small dogs, medium dogs, or larger dogs who are already trained on the leash and calm when seeing others. Although I do have experience walking dogs who pull or get too excited, I want to ensure safety for your pet, myself, and others around me. However, if your larger pup is still working on their leash manners, I am more than happy to care for them entirely at home, focusing on indoor playtime, backyard fun, and tons of love! I am also a cat mom of 4 and love all types of cats. I currently have a flexible schedule. Whether your pup or kitten needs a last-minute check-in, a mid-day walk or your pet requires strict, timely medication schedules, I am around to help. When I am in your home, safety and respect for your space are my priorities. I treat your home with care, ensuring doors are securely locked, gates are latched, and your home is left exactly as I found it. I can follow strict instructions to ensure that your pet’s needs are met. I also love sending quick photo updates with every visit, so you have total peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“We had a wonderful experience with Maryann! She took such great care of Lucca and treated him like one of her own. She was attentive, caring, and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and the genuine love she has for animals. We highly recommend Maryann to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. Thank you, Maryann, for taking such amazing care of Lucca!”

About: Hi! I’m Susan! I’m a native Manteca girl. I have loved animals all my life but especially dogs!! When I’m with dogs that aren’t mine, they can sense my calm and rarely has there been a dog that doesn’t like me. I’m a calm person and always expect the best from my pets and they act that way. I believe that a calm owner or person in charge of any dog, creates a calm atmosphere which also makes it fun. I would love to meet your fur baby and love them just like you would. You can be assured while you are away that your four legged family member will be happy and well loved in your absence. I look forward to meeting you soon.

“Brittany did a great job while we were out of country for 10 days. As always, we were worry free during our time away and came home to happy animals :)”
