“I can’t say enough good things about the care my dog Domino has received. I feel completely relaxed and at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. Domino can be a little particular, but the patience, attention, and genuine love he’s shown makes all the difference. I truly appreciate the updates and how comfortable and content he looks. It’s such a relief to travel and know he’s not just being watched—he’s being cared for. Highly recommend!”


“Christina’s the best dog-sitter you could ever ask for; totally professional and responsible, but also an incredibly sweet and fun companion for our pup! Can’t recommend highly enough, she’s our go-to gal for every trip we’ll take in the future.”


“Kaitlyn was awesome. Our dogs and cat are happy and well taken care of when we returned from a week vacation. She left our house immaculate. 10/10. Would recommend her to all our family and friends.”


“Cathy was a wonderful sitter for out two dogs and cat. She took care of them during our week away and took care of the house. She let us know the changes in her work schedule and made sure we were arriving in time so our pets would be taken care of. We will use her services again.”


“Mary took great care of my pets and communicated with me about how they were doing, and she sent daily pictures. She was also very flexible when our travel plans changed, and even made the change request for me on the Rover app when I couldn’t figure it out. She also left a lovely note and a pretty vase of dried flowers. We will definitely request her for future pet sitting needs!”



“Repeat client here!!! Alexia is amazing. She is very accommodating and always on time and goes above and beyond to make sure our Frenchie is taken care of. Frenchies are very needy but she always makes time for our babies. We love Alexia! She is sweet and very caring. We’ve had her sit for all of our fur babies and will continue to only request her. It’s reassuring to have someone come in your home, take care of your babies and feel at ease. She is hands down the best!!!!”


“Everything went smoothly. Chelsea visited twice ahead of time to get to know the dogs before our trip. Any questions I had before the trip were responded to quickly, and communication while we were gone was timely. Thank you, Chelsea!”


“Wow! What a relief to have found Victoria! She is kind and sweet, loves animals and was so sweet to mine! I was able to go on a last minute trip with my family and relax knowing they were in good hands!”


“Margaret is phenomenal! We haven’t had someone watch our dogs for an extended amount of time before Margaret and feel so fortunate to have connected with her! We don’t plan to use anyone else!! Margaret goes above and beyond as a dog sitter and house sitter. We received photos and updates a few times each day and both our pups absolutely adore her!! So do we!! 10 out of 5 stars! Margaret is the best!!”


“Thanh-Mai was absolutely incredible! We have a very anxious and nervous Dalmatian so we weren’t sure how our Ella would do for a full 8 days with someone new in her space but she had a blast! Thanh-Mai was open to multiple meet-ups so Ella could warm up to her. By the second visit Ella was stoked to see her which really eased any worries we had about leaving her. We received pictures and updates all throughout the week with careful attention to Ella’s feelings and reactions. Thanh-Mai stayed in our apartment to keep Ella in her usual environment and when we got home she had left the place so clean and neat! It made for such a nice arrival after two days of flying. We couldn’t recommend Thanh-Mai more! Thank you for creating such a safe space for our puppy!”


“We have 2 senior dogs and had our 3 y/o frenchie granddog that Faith cared for through the holidays. We came home to 3 well cared for pups. I will be happy to use her in the future. She is responsible and has a gentle way with the senior dogs. She comes highly recommended!”


“Jace is great. We have booked multiple house sittings with them. Photos and updates are provided regularly. Our dog and home are both well cared for by Jace each time. Highly recommended!”


About: I’ve taken care of my own pets for 10+ years and have pet sat multiple times for neighbors. I have taken care of pets of all ages! I am currently unemployed for the summer and have tons of free time to care for your pets! I am available to housesit most if not all days of the week. I have a fenced in yard and one very friendly golden retriever to keep your pups company! I also own cats that can be put away if necessary. I am also able to crate animals if needed!

“Sara was amazing keeping me updated on Maddie’s wellbeing. When she met Maddie I could tell she loved animals. It was a load of my heart that my baby was cared for so well. Thanks Sara. Appreciate your help and thanks for the pictures.”


“Elise was awesome with my pets. I have four dogs and have never left them with anyone before. She stayed overnight with them and took very good care of them. I can’t wait to plan my next trip knowing that I can depend on Elise to take care of my fur babies.”


“I couldn’t have asked for a better cat sitter than Natasha! She spent the week with my cat while I was on vacation, and sent me updates throughout the week which was reassuring. She even cleaned up before leaving, which was wonderful! I highly recommend Natasha :)”


About: I've had pets all of my life. I've been around cats since I was born, had dogs since I was 9, and went to school for animal science (Cal Poly SLO) and to become a vet tech. I've had a handful of pet care jobs, mostly doggy daycare and professional pet bathing, where I worked with dogs great and small (and every size in between). I've helped take care of dogs while they were boarding at the daycare by cleaning their rooms, making sure they always had water and a cozy bed, and feeding them according to their parent's instructions (as well as play with them and take them on walks). With schooling I became skilled at administering medications, doing bandages, and I am confident with my CPR skills. I am comfortable with all breeds and most temperaments (as long as they're not people aggressive, that's fine!). Whether your senior dog needs some assistance with pottying or your puppy needs an extra run when you're at work, I'm happy to provide my services. Between the hours of 6am and 10pm I am open to stop by and check in on your pet or take them on a nice long tiring walk. While I do not sit for pets at my house I would care for clients pets like they're my own. I would follow the rules given to me down to a T, your pet will always be safe in my hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was about 10 years old. I’ve had one cat of my own and 4 dogs. Loved each of them dearly. Dog mom to Pepper! My crazy maltipoo! Currently working part time for medical purposes so I’ll have plenty of time to enjoy your four legged family members! That certainly sounds great to me! I will not be taking care of your pets in my home as I live in an apartment and have my maltipoo. I will be taking care of them in your home using the food you provide, doing potty breaks and picking up poo as needed with a scooper, shovel, or potty bags you’ve provided. Of course giving lots of hugs, rubs, and a nice walk around the block or two staying respectful of your instructions!

“Kaitlin did an outstanding job house and pet sitting for us. It was our first experience with Kaitlin. She was professional, responsible, and communicates well. She was on time and read through our instructions and did all that we asked. Our home was left neat and tidy, and our pets were worn out from all the play time they had with her. She paid attention to our cat who can be over looked or passed by because our golden loves to be the center of attention all day long. And that is much appreciated! She did a great job managing and loving on each of our pets individually. We will hire Kaitlin again.”

Riley R.
“To Prospective Clients, I am delighted to provide a personal reference for my daughter, Riley, who is offering her services as a dog walker and dog sitter through Rover. As Riley’s mother, I have seen first-hand her natural connection with animals thanks to a lifetime of living with a variety of pets. Our family has included dogs, cats, a tortoise, a gecko, and, for a time, chickens. Riley has helped care for every one of them with patience, enthusiasm, and genuine love. Riley has always been surrounded by animals and has grown up with dogs, cats, a tortoise, and, for a time, even chickens. This extensive experience has given her a deep understanding of animal care and behavior, as well as the ability to handle a variety of pet personalities and needs. She is incredibly trustworthy and reliable. When Riley commits to caring for pets, she ensures their needs are met with the highest level of attention and kindness. She makes sure they are well-fed, given plenty of exercise, and, most importantly, cared for with patience and genuine affection. Animals naturally gravitate toward her gentle and caring manner. If you are looking for a compassionate, dependable, and animal-loving person to look after your furry (or feathered or scaled!) family members, I wholeheartedly recommend Riley If you have any questions or would like to speak further about Riley's experience, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Anna Ramseier”
