“Cats were well taken care of! Ingrid made sure to send lots of pictures which made me so happy!”
“Bailey is truly a gem! She cared for our two reactive, mostly untrained dogs and our cat over a weekend away, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience—especially as first-time Rover users. She walked the dogs daily, sent us regular photo updates, and made us feel so at ease while we were gone. On her second stay, we had some unexpected behavior issues with one of our rescue dogs, who managed to dart out the door (not her fault at all—he’s a handful!). Bailey stayed longer than expected to make sure everything was under control before she left. Her calm, caring presence and quick communication gave us so much peace of mind. She is incredibly responsible, responsive, and clearly loves animals. We’ll be booking Bailey every time she’s available. I would give a million stars if the app allowed it! Highly, highly recommend!”
About: I have been a sitter for 4 years for friends and neighbors. My care has included walking, potty breaks, overnight care, and more! I’ve lived with Dobermans my whole life and am capable of care for any dog of any size! I am a full time student at Cal Poly humboldt, my classes are in the morning and I am completely open in afternoons, weekends and holidays! I am active and love to play with animals!! My dogs at home are escape artists so I know how to avoid an escape due to fences. I have kennel trained multiple of my dogs and prefer to use kennels for bigger dogs.
About: My family has had dogs since I was born. We had a German shepherd when I was growing up so I know how to work with larger dogs, and we now have a medium sized mutt who I’ve helped care for for the 10 years since we adopted her. I have also helped my brother take care of his two month old puppy. I also have experience cat and dog sitting for friends and family. I love animals and am very active so have no problem with walks or runs of any length! I’m a Biochemistry major at Cal Poly Humboldt so my summer schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available really anytime any day of the week. I don’t have another job this summer so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your lovely pet(s). I’m also on the Humboldt Crew team so have no issue taking long walks or maybe a little run. I am happy to watch pets overnight or over multiple days and have no issues coming to you to make your experience easier. I know the pets will probably also prefer their own home to another’s.
About: Howdy! My name's Rachel, I'm new to the area. I am a lover of all animals, but especially dogs. I grew up with a lovable and energetic Akita, so I have a big love for larger dogs. I currently live with my cat, Henri, who I found in an alley in Chicago a few years ago. I formerly worked for a local dog boarding and daycare spot. I'm a pretty active person, I like hiking and running and being outside, all activities that could be even more fun with a four legged companion. I'm happy to answer any questions you have, and am looking forward to meeting! I am very available for weekends to walk, visit, or care for pets! I work during the week but possibly could make time in the evenings At my home, I do have a cat who is friendly. I have a babygate that I set up or lock the cat in my room when dogs are visiting. I am open to making house visits also! I believe pets who are already stressed out when their person is away for extended periods should feel comfortable and be in their own place.
About: I have years of experience working with pets and have been caring for pets of all kinds from a young age. People were always outnumbered by pets in my household. I have had the pleasure of expanding my experience with animals as I have worked for the past two years as a nanny/farmhand. In that position I have worked with dogs, cats, goats, chickens and even a sassy young miniature donkey. I am lucky enough to have my best friend living locally who worked as a veterinary technician for several years and is always available for medical advice! My work days extend Mondays through Friday for 6-8 hour stretches depending on the day. My schedule allows for plenty of time to walk and play with your pets before 9am and after 4pm with additional opportunity for brief check-ins/ potty breaks on M/W/F as my work is flexible those days allowing me to be mobile and pop by if needed. For the comfort of your pets, I am more than willing to stay with them at their own home for the duration of the job. I do have a sweet 9 year old Belgian shepherd mix who she gets along wonderfully with other animals and would love to join me to provide an additional social aspect to the visit if you wish or I can come solo. Totally depending on your preference!
“Awesome sitter! She originally agreed to watch our two pups, but plans changed and she was still keen to watch our kitten while we were away for the day. Flexible, easy to communicate with, and sent lots of pics. Highly recommended”
About: Hello! I’m Tamara and I look forward to becoming a trusted part of your pet’s life. My goal is to build a lasting bond with your fur baby, providing you with peace of mind knowing that they are receiving the best possible care from someone they trust. Having grown up on a farm, I gained hands on experience with a variety of animals. I completed a canine training program through the SPCA and have had the privilege of working with a county animal shelter, where I fostered and helped rehome dogs in need of special care. Over decades, I’ve fostered many dogs with a range of behaviors and needs. I look forward to the opportunity to care for your furry companion, ensuring a safe enjoyable and enriching experience. I have the privilege of working from home with a flexible schedule, allowing me to dedicate ample time to meet your pet’s needs. Pet care is not a side gig for me, but a long term passion that I take great pride in. Understanding that your pets have distinct needs, I prioritize creating a customized care plan tailored to both you and your pet. With experience working with dogs with various behavioral needs, my focus is on establishing trust and providing a positive, secure environment. Whether caring for your pet in the comfort of your home or on an engaging outdoor adventure, my commitment is to ensure a safe, enjoyable, and rewarding experience every step of the way.
About: I love animals! I remember what it was like when my family went out of town and we couldn't bring our animals and how important it was to us to make sure they were comfortable while we were gone. Knowing they were safe, made my mom and dad feel at ease and able to enjoy our time away. As a mother now myself, I understand what it means to feel secure when you can't be the one taking care of your child. My heart guides me this way. I hope to be able to help you feel secure when you can't be there. I also would like to open my home to your furry family members if that makes it more comfortable. I also love to run/hike and would love to have a buddy to come with me. I live in a perfect neighborhood that allows for walks of all kinds and there is a park around the away where dogs are allowed. I am also extremely open to cats! My pal passed about 13years ago and I travel too much to bring myself to adopt another. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs my entire life. I am very compassionate by nature and have a natural empathy for animals. I believe my calm/attentive energy allows me to connect with them and for them to feel safe. Animals are very perceptive this way. Meet my pets No Pets....my cat passed away 13 years ago...and I travel too much to bring myself to adopt another just yet....that is unless one adopts me :-)

“Dani demonstrated her cat-smarts (with our sometimes fickle, finicky & bad-ass feline!); Dani proved to be super reliable and communicative, helping us to completely relax and enjoy our week away, knowing our cat was in good hands! Thank you, Dani!”
“Was able to accommodate me last minute. He was even able to give Lola her meds follow specific instructions.”
“Amazing. Sent multiple pics everyday and updated me about my cat. I know I left Luna in great hands.”
“Jolie was very attentive and communicative while we were out of town. Jolie sent photos of our cat's daily activities (even though our little guy likes to hide around people). Highly recommend Jolie as she communicative, punctual, and easy going.”
About: I've grown up with cats and have helped or fully taken care of them since I was 8. I currently have 3 cats (ages 2, 2, and 3) which I feed, clean the water bowl, and solely sift/clean/change the litter boxes. I also have an almost 5 year old ball python who I've solely taken care of since he was 2 months old. Currently job-hunting, so besides taking care of my own pets I will be able to fit a lot into my schedule! I will also be more flexible. At home I both keep things locked up and away that I do not want the cats getting into, and keep an eye out for whatever they may find. I also sift 2-3 times daily, and change litter boxes weekly. My ball python's tank gets emptied and cleaned every other week. My cats and snake have never and will never directly interact with each other. However I will carry my snake around to let him explore as much as is safe.
“Jessy gave us wonderful updates on our little fur baby, followed all the care instructions, and made us feel like our bunny was safe and cared for while we were away. Thank you so much Jessy, you’re the absolute best!! 😊”
“Kyra was so good with our two dogs! We have a boisterous pit mix and little border collie and she played ball with them when she visited and gave them tons of love. 11/10 would book again.”

3. Skylar M.
“Skylar did an amazing job watching after our two bengal cats while we were out of town. Our cats eat a special diet and she happily accepted the challenge. You can tell she is a true animal lover based on the time she would spend with our boys everyday while we were gone. We loved getting pictures and updates on how they were doing over the week. We came home to two very happy bengals. Would absolutely have her pet sit for us again. Highly recommend 🐾❤️”

8. Tamara M.
“I know it’s hard to be away from your fur pups, but just when you think there is no doggy day care that “will care for my babies like I do”……there is a solution, it’s Tamara. She has been caring for my pups like they are her own. The fun takes place at her home and in her yard. One on one care, naps when they need it, treats and so much play time. It’s truly their home away from home. My Weimaraner mix has been with her for almost one year and I just rescued a senior Yorkie who, thankfully, blended into the fur family with Tamara’s experienced love, touch and supervision. My pups can’t wait to get there in the mornings!! I have never once worried about their care.”

I completely trust her, and she’ll be my go-to sitter from now on!”
