“Lara was amazing...she's a brave soul who stepped up when two others flaked last minute and helped me out with my very sick kitty...she gave meds and helped feed her while I had to leave overnight...I wouldn't have been able to sleep without knowing she was taken such good care of...thank you Lara”

About: I have been a lifelong dog owner. I can care for a variety of pups from young and energetic to senior pups. I love to take my own dogs on my adventures throughout the Santa Cruz mountains from casual walks to long adventure runs and so I can accommodate whatever your dog needs. I also like to spend time training and practicing commands because dogs also like to be engaged mentally along with the physical. Of course love and affection through cuddles is always guaranteed and unlimited. I have lots of experienced with many different dog personalities and can accommodate them accordingly to make sure they are well cared for. I have a very flexible schedule that is mostly already based around my own pups so I am very much able to accommodate yours as well! I have availability to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets throughout the day and evening. I already incorporate activities like dog walking and trail running into my daily routine which means I can offer active dogs a great adventure while also being available for quiet cuddle and consistent care for all pets. In my home, I treat every guest like family. My home is a safe, dog-friendly environment with a fenced yard where they can play safely. We'll follow their regular feeding schedule and I'll make sure they get plenty of exercise with daily walks, running for high-energy dogs, and lots of mental stimulation. In the evenings, it's all about cuddles and relaxation on the couch, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. When caring for pets in a client's home, my top priority is to maintain their familiar routine. I'll adhere strictly to their feeding schedule, walking routine, and any specific commands they know. My goal is to be a calm and reliable presence, providing consistent care and affection in their own environment. I'll also ensure your home is kept clean and secure, leaving it just as I found it.

“Would recommend Daniela in a heartbeat. Totally reliable and made our trip so much more relaxing knowing that our. 3 cats were being so well cared for.”

About: Hey! Glad to see you here! My name is Morgan, and while I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to animal care. You can see my past experience on the IG account I’m currently building @morgansnugglesyourdog 🐾 If you want someone who aims to understand your pets, respects their routines, is intentional, and takes a thoughtful, behavior-focused approach to care — welcome! I’m a calm, capable sitter who tailors care to your pet’s unique needs, energy level, and emotional comfort. Whether your dog is a mellow senior, a wild child in training, or just your average well-behaved snugglebug, I offer structure, enrichment, affection, and the kind of consistency pets thrive on. I believe all animals deserve to be heard and deserve intentional care and structure. ❌ Things I don’t do: • Dog parks • Chaotic group situations • Handing out treats “just because” • Pushing past an animal’s comfort zone • Ignoring or minimizing behavioral needs ✅ Things I do: • Personalized, temperament-based care • Adventures (if your pet is up for it!) • Daily enrichment and mental stimulation • Intentional structure and calm routines • Respecting your pet’s boundaries and setting healthy ones • All the snuggles (when invited!) I also have hands-on experience with cats, small animals (like guinea pigs and rats), reptiles, and even farm animals like pigs and ducks. If it has paws, claws, hooves, or scales — chances are, I’ve cared for it. When it’s a good fit, I love incorporating dogs into my daily life — whether that’s a nature walk, a car ride to town, or just relaxing outside. But I never take dogs to dog parks or chaotic spaces. If something feels too stimulating or simply isn’t right for your pet, we skip it — no pressure, no push. And if your pup is the stay-home-and-cuddle type? That works for me too. I always ask about behavior, routines, and preferences ahead of time and spend the first day or two getting a read on what your pet is capable of and comfortable with. My goal is to help every animal feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for in a way that honors who they are. I work from home full time! I have several clients but the type of work allows me to be extremely flexible for your pets! I know while some pets can just hang out while I work, others may need more care, enrichment or a closer eye - I can and will accommodate accordingly. Just let me know what your pet needs ❤️ When sitting at your home I prefer to stick to the spaces your pets are most comfortable in or used to as well as stick to a similar routine. I find this helps with separation anxiety and any confusion the pets may have since their favorite human is gone! If possible, I like to take dogs for a longer walk on the first day to help us bond and help me learn how they behave. For other pets, this may look more like a longer playtime, enrichment activity, etc. I want to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible with me in their space so that first day is important to me!

“Bianca was great, very professional and made us feel at ease. Noche loved her. Will definitely be a repeat client”

“Very kind and understanding of my pets special needs! Michelle is an amazing dog walker! She's reliable, attentive, and truly loves dogs. My baby girl (dog) always comes back from walks with Michelle happy and tired. I highly recommend her services! Always sends me photos showing my happy fur baby! We are really grateful for her!”

About: I’m back! I took a hiatus for a few years to raise two babies and now I’m on the job to make your pup smile! I have had dogs my whole life and devastatingly our last two pups passed through the rainbow bridge in 2024. My family still has room in our heart and our house for for your dog(s), so boarding and dog sitting is now our passion. I would love to share my love and energy by walking/running/playing with your dog(s). My dog home used to be filled with three energetic dogs with which I ran daily. I have no problem with running/walking larger or smaller breeds. I have owned and loved dogs of all ages and sizes and respect and understand that they have different needs and temperaments. I have free time durning the day to spend with your dog so please contact me if you have any questions and I look forward to meeting you and your four legged children. I currently have two school-age children, so morning and midday is perfect for me to walk/run/play with your dog or animal. I am also available early morning and evening for walks, runs, and drop and visits. We have a fenced in concrete area and grass on the outside. We have 2 acres of land, so plenty of space for fetch and outside play. We have a medium size crate, if needed. And we have two six year old girls, who would love to be friends.

“Soma was able to fulfill a last minute request on a holiday, and did a wonderful job connecting with our pup. Looking forward to having her help in the future.”

“Christa takes good care of my kitties. I can relax knowing she is hanging out with them. The pictures show me how comfortable they are with her. They are less anxious when she cares for them.”

“Stacey & Avihay did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats! We were so pleased with their prompt communication, kind care for our pets, and photo updates. Our very shy cat quickly warmed up to them which we were delighted to hear. Excellent pet sitters - we look forward to booking them again in the future!”

“10/10! Heidi was such a great cat-sitter! I have a small studio that traps litter dust/odors and she made sure to open the windows while she was there. She also took my cat outside on her harness every day and kept Nairobi very happy. She also kept the litter box/food area super clean (despite my cat being quite messy). And of course the daily photos to sooth my cat-mom anxiety hehe. I will definitely book her for my next trip ?”

“Jessica did a wonderful job checking in on our cats while we were away for a few days. She's responsive, professional, and reliable. Our cat loved her company and we'll definitely work with her again!”

About: Dogs helped raise me. From a very young age, our family dogs were my best friends, guardians, and siblings. I’ve cared for animals of all kinds, from dogs and cats to rabbits and guinea pigs, horses, chickens, ducks and other farm animals, reptiles and amphibians, birds and more! I love all animals and connect with them on a deep level. I’ve been walking dogs and house sitting as my only job for over two years now. I absolutely love what I do and I’m so grateful to have the opportunity to work with animals for a living! I cover Felton to Boulder Creek and I’m happy to come up to Bonny Doon or Big Basin as well! I have a reliable car, I am happy to come to your house and check in on your pet, take them for a walk in your neighborhood, or even stay at your house while you’re away if your pet needs company full time!

About: With every dog that I meet, I enjoy playing a role of sort of translator/ trustworthy uncle, so they are excited to love and respect me. I feel that when I am assertive I am heard, and I attribute that to my determination to find a mutual sense of respect, and trust with not only dogs but nearly every indevidual I cross paths with. I believe very strongly in demonstrating integrity, and that in turn, I will find encounters of trust and respect. I grew up with Australian Sheppard’s. All rescues from Aussie Rescue. I have sat for friends and neighbors my entire life, as well as for friends of friends and also had a partner who I would help Sit (over-nights/ walks/ checking up/ spoil/ .... ...stuff like that. 😋 Wildly enough, I don’t have a dog of my own. I have spent some years of my adult life traveling and don’t see it fare to subject a dog/ dependent to my lifestyle. Now would be a good time, however, my best friends/ housemates have the most wonderful Blue Heeler(in my picture), and I absolutely adore sharing every moment that I can!
