She’s always a fantastic communicator, keeping me updated and making sure I know how my dogs are doing, which gives me peace of mind while I’m away.

As someone who works from home, he has the flexibility to provide constant attention and care to our own little dog, Beanie, and any furry guests we may welcome through Rover. His calm and patient nature makes dogs feel at ease, and his love for animals shines through in everything he does. Having grown up with dogs and cared for Beanie, he has years of experience in understanding their needs and ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Our home is perfect for canine companions, with a cozy patio where they can relax and play. Jiawei is always eager to give dogs plenty of affection, exercise, and attention. He is responsible,and genuinely passionate about providing the best care possible. I’m confident that any dog in his care will feel right at home and be well looked after.”

“Lena is great. My favorite dog sitter. She is a dog lover and does everything to make your dog happy. I boarded my dog with her. And she did all the things he loves. Takings him for long hikes in the mountains, bring him to yeh beach , play with him ball , let him play her so she take him out numerous times when he wants it even at 5 am. Even bake doggie Cookies for him ? My dog loves her now and doesn’t want to come home and always waits for her to come to pick him up . Dogs know real stuff :)”

14. Paige F.
About: I have been a dog sitter and walker on and off for 4 years. During the past year, I have been volunteering at the Helen WoodWard Animal Center in their boarding facility taking care of dogs. I am a recent college graduate and am looking for dog walking jobs during the week, including monday, wednesday and thursdays any time of the day. I ensure that each clients pet is taken care of and treated well, as well as understanding the clients needs. Keeping the animal close by myself during each walk is very important to me.

My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family and friends. I am pretty open nowadays. Ready to take care of your furry babies as much as needed! Also, have my helpers ( my kids off school, are ready to help)! Right now I am open to come and take care of your pets! Always willing to come first to get to know your pets, and introduce myself. Folowing the rules and instructions- that’s number one priority. Safety, Trust, Care and Love only!
16. Anna S.
“I have a 1 year old black lab that is a little shy around new people. Anna was very patient and my little pup now adores her. Anna has helped out a number of times taking my dog out when work is too busy for me, and I really appreciate her genuineness, innate love for animals, and her professionalism.”
17. Ruda V.
“Ruda is amazing with animals! They’re so drawn to him and his kind, calm demeanor. I had a foster for 3 mos and needed help with her while I was away at work during the day. He took the absolute best care of her during the day for me, and she was absolutely enamored with him. She had a strict food and medication schedule and he didn’t so much as miss one step of the schedule. I feel like she was healthier after having spent that much time with him. He will always be the first person I call when I need a helping hand with a furry friend! Thank you Ruda!”
18. Julia S.
About: I have years of experience caring for all types of animals but dogs have always had a special place in my heart. All types and personalities are welcome at my place and I am available for full time companionship. This includes keeping your dog company as well as exercising and entertaining puppies or dogs with more energy. I grew up with Rottweilers and love big dogs and have years of experience caring for Chihuahuas, Frenchies, and smaller specialty breeds so I am well versed in the different types of attention that dogs require to be happy and comfortable in their living environment. Not only am I comfortable with newborn puppies, but I also have many clients with senior dogs and I have no problem administering medication your pet may need. Once they get to know me, I guarantee your dog will consider me their home away from home where they can relax whenever you are busy or away. I work from home and take my role as your pets caretaker very seriously. Your pet will never be left along outside or around another animal unsupervised and I will be home full time to keep them company and ensure they are happy and healthy during their stay. My home is fully fenced in with a beautiful yard to provide outside and playtime. Dogs that enjoy being outside are welcome to hang out in my escape proof yard, but will be brought inside when I am not home or unable to supervise. The house has AC for the hot days and a special place for dogs to relax and hang out on the couch if they'd like.
19. Nathalie M.
“Nathalie has cared for my Golden Doodle and Lhasa Apso for several years now and always does a wonderful job. I can always rely on her to care for my dogs when I am away for work or on vacation and can trust that they are in good hands. She always makes sure to sends me plenty of photos of her being active with the doggies and keeps me up to date on their eating/potty schedules!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of dogs of all sizes for neighbors, family and friends. I can help with feeding, walks, baths, brushing, dental care, etc. I have a hybrid work schedule, so I can take care of your dogs on the weekends and for shorter periods during the week. I'm happy to discuss with you how much care and play time you would like each day for your pups! I have experience working with anxious dogs and puppies. I want your pups to feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. Please let me know if you have any specific requests for your dogs' comfort and safety.
