“Linda took excellent care of our two cats. We felt totally confident leaving town with peace of mind. I would not hesitate to utilize her services again. THANK YOU, LINDA!”

“Krista was wonderful with our two tabby’s. They both are usually shy around new people, however her loving energy won them both over immediately. I highly recommend Krista, she went above and beyond caring for our cats.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals since the age of 3 - growing up on a farm that comes with the territory. Over the years I have had handling and care experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, reptiles, birds, amphibians... you name it! My professional experience with animals includes pet sitting, volunteering for a wildlife rescue, and working as a small animal veterinary assistant. I do have ample experience with giving medications including pills, liquid, topical medications and even insulin injections for diabetic cats and dogs. I would love to meet your pet and get to know their unique personality. Feel free to reach out with any questions! I am currently between jobs as I am moving to a new city in the near future. In the meantime I have plenty of free time to spend quality time with your animal! I have good judgment and experience when it comes to taking care of other people's animals in their home. I am vigilant, mindful, and careful when it comes to maintaining a safe and comfortable environment.
“Ella has been awesome. Daily check-ins were always on time with amazing updates and pictures. So glad our Pup looked so happy …. Even with us being out of town lol. Will definitely use again!”

About: I have been around animals my whole life! The first dog I trained was when I was 10 years old! I just love being around animals. I am a independently contracted entrepreneur with a couple side jobs that give me very flexible schedule! I am adding this to my list of fun jobs I love to do! I live near the desert on an open property easy to take dogs on walks right at home! Many hiking trails nearby, as well! I can easily crate dogs, as needed. I can also care for your fur baby right at home where they will be comfortable while still taking them on nice walk-a-bouts!
“2nd time Suzie B has watched our two cats. They quickly bond with her and she with them. Suzie cares for all of their needs, including medication. She gives pets and scratches upon requ3st. Looking forward to welcoming her back in December.”
About: “What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give to every dog. I don’t just ‘watch’ pets — I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and preferences so they can stick to what makes them happiest. I’m patient and calm with shy or anxious dogs, and I’m energetic and engaged with playful, high-energy pups. I’m also comfortable helping with basic training and routines for puppies, like potty breaks, leash manners, and positive reinforcement. For senior dogs, I make sure they get gentle exercise, medication on schedule if needed, and plenty of rest and affection. You’ll always get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is in good hands. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re on their own little staycation — not missing you, but still being cared for like family.” “Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I make sure dogs get consistent walks, feeding times, play, and rest throughout the day so they feel comfortable and settled. I’m organized and reliable about sticking to each pet’s schedule, whether that means early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening feeding and medication. I plan my day around the pets I’m caring for, not the other way around, so they always get the attention, exercise, and affection they need. Whether I’m caring for one dog or multiple, I make sure each one gets plenty of one-on-one time so they feel happy, safe, and well cared for.” “When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as close to normal as possible so they feel comfortable and stress-free. I follow all instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, while also giving them space to relax when they need it. I keep their environment clean and safe, making sure food and water are always fresh, toys are available, and any hazards are out of reach. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I respect the home, keep things tidy, and make sure everything is secure. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your time away as easy as possible — for both you and your pet.”
“Verna took the best care of Cinder. She was professional, super quick to respond and sensitive to Cinders medical conditions. You won't find a better caretaker! Thank you Verna, seriously you are amazing!”
“Lyla is the best pet sitter I have ever had. She went above and beyond to take very good care of my cat Alexia for 30 days. My cat is 18 years old, she previously had two seizures about seven months ago, and she had another episode while we were out of town. Lyla, acted very professional and cared really for Alexia. She called me to inform me, she called the Vet clinic, and the emergency pet hospital. She stayed longer with Alexia to make sure she was feeling better after the episode, and she helped her recover and calm down. Lyla, treated my cat and my house with a great respect, Alexia looked cleaned and happy and the house was tidy and clean. I will hire Lyla again and again, she is very nice, professional and reliable. She could literally handle any issues and she is willing to do anything to make your babies happy. Thank you very much Lyla for being such a great person.”

“We booked a pair of drop-in appointments with Marissa for our 60 lb boxer, Fig. We weren't sure how Fig would react to having a stranger come to the house while he was alone, so the first meeting was for Marissa to meet him and she quickly made friends with him! Marissa was very responsive to communication and did what we needed her to do. She also sent a couple of photos of Fig getting to play in the back yard during her drop in, which was great! Very happy, will definitely book with Marissa again.”

About: I have been dogsitting for my friends and family consistently for about 5 years. I have cared for corgis all the way up to great danes and have no problem spending all day with them. I can walk, feed, and bathe your pets as much as you need. I am home from college for the rest of the semester and have a lot of free time on my hands. I can care for your pet whenever you need. I will make sure your pet is happy and trusts me fully before trying to do anything with it. Your pets comfort is my number one priority.
“Emily is FANTASTIC! We dropped off our cat Stuffy for his first stay away from home and when we came back to pick him up, he didn’t want to leave. Emily was communicative, helpful, and loved Stuffy as one of her own pets - highly recommend!”

“First time using Rover Katelyn who took care of my cat Sherbet sent pictures/videos, she was there every day to feed and even play with him. I was so relieved to know he was being taken such good care of! On Christmas, she even brought him some catnip and toys!! Katelyn went above and beyond our expectations, will for sure use again we highly recommend! Thank you !”

“Annette was FANTASTIC! We booked her very last minute and I’m so very glad she was available! We did a meet and greet so I could show her how to take care of the kitties, and she was able to help me water the plants in my home as well! She was absolutely fantastic at caring for the cats, keeping their spaces nice and tidy, and the litter boxes cleaned. I am BEYOND happy the cats came around to her and she played with them and gave them lots of love! It made me feel so comfortable while away from them! All of my plants were alive and well, and she even went the extra step and brought our bins up from the street after trash collections. We will definitely be booking with her again! Thank you Annette!!!”

About: I have owned and taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. I know the importance of caring for them like they are mine so owners can enjoy the time away from their fur babies. I have provided pill form medication and will be willing to provide this service as well. I am a work from home employee and can-do drop-in appointments and walks. I am available everyday morning, afternoon, and early evenings. Pill form medication able to help with. I currently have 3 small dogs that all are rescues. Daily play time and walks are a must in our household for both their well-being and mine. 3 times a day feeding with medication in the evening is our routine.
About: Together, Emilee and Erik offer warm, friendly, loving energy into animals they interact with in home or on walks!. My partner Erik and I are both professional online educators who only work minimal hours a week, so we have ample time and energy to walk, play and snuggle pets while caring for them. We are very considerate of our clients home and space. We always leave a space for the better and make sure pets are well cared for. Emilee has been a professional pet sitter for 10 years along with teaching musical theatre and yoga to kids online. She has helped raised multiple puppies and kittens along with caring for elderly animals who require daily medication during her years caring for animals and children. She loves to talk to pets and give them lots of snuggles (if they desire:) Erik, her partner, is also very well versed in pet care and loves to run and play with doggos. He is also an online educator who teaches 6 languages around the globe. If house-sitting, we are happy to water plants, collect mail, take out trash and recycling! We both teach online for only a few hours during the week, so we have plenty of time to play with pets and give snuggles. 🐶💛🐱 We care for any home we enter as our own. We also do professional traveling pet care through word of mouth mainly on the West coast. This takes us to many homes with many pets and everyone we have worked with has has a wonderful experience ❤
“Baylee did an amazing job taking care of my two cats, Gracie and Leo, while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my cats as if they were her own. I appreciated the updates and peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties, and I couldn’t ask for more. I highly recommend Baylee to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

Located in a private one-story home in Tatum Ranch with a fenced backyard, I am eager and willing to provide care to your pet(s) while you are away. I have owned dogs all my life and have been caring for others as my own for over ten years. I do not currently own any dogs of my own, and am excited to have some furry friends keep myself and my husband company. Lots of love, playtime, and exercise are to be found with us! About the house: Single story. Main living areas are carpet and tile. Animals are allowed in all rooms when supervised, and dogs coming without crates are kept in the kitchen when out and about. Backyard is fenced with concrete and river rock, no pool. Kept at a comfortable temperature year-round! Dog experience: Most of our experience with dogs comes from medium-large breeds, including Labradors, poodles, and boxers. I have experience with senior dogs requiring medication, cream, and experiencing seizures. In the past, I was with a client's dog as we made the necessary decision to put her to sleep. While heartbreaking, I was honored to be in such a trusted position. Cat experience: Cats welcome to board if they are comfortable with travel. Experience injecting insulin. Up to 4 days only due to light allergies. What you should bring: Food, treats, food and water bowls, collar, leash, any toys/blankets/beds/crates that make the animal more comfortable! Boarding reflects a 24-hour period. Applicable Rover "extended rate" fees apply with bookings exceeding these periods. Weekends require 2-day minimum stay: Friday night - Sunday. Bathroom breaks every 4 hour reflect that we are in and out of the house throughout the day. Please treat us with the respect we will treat your loved ones and bring a fluffy, bathed animal! Currently, Cassandra works from home, meaning animals are supervised for the majority of the time M-F, with an early to bed early to rise schedule. Our house has a closed gate and fenced yard; animals coming without a crate are limited to the kitchen with their bed when we are out of the home; baby gates are used throughout the house when necessary to discourage wandering.
