About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my whole life, growing up with Bernese Mountain Dogs, and now with two rescues! I've worked in an animal shelter with dogs of many sizes, breeds, and temperaments, so I'm skilled at socializing, walking, and playing with dogs with all kinds of personalities. I've also cared for a reactive dog of my own, which has taught me even more about canine body language and how to respond safely. With experience ranging from puppies to seniors, including medical and special needs care, I give every dog the patience, and love they deserve, as if they were my own! I currently have a hybrid position, and hoping to care for animals with my extra time! Due to remote work, my schedule is quite flexible and I'm available for boarding or check ins most days. When I’m caring for pets in your home, my goal is to make things feel as normal and comfortable for them as possible. I stick to your usual routines so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive to their moods and body language, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re happy and cared for. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect I’d want for my own, leaving it just as you left it. Happy to align with your needs!

“Andi was extremely responsive and easy to work with for my last minute dog walking booking! Andi was great with my dog Maddy, and I would definitely book with Andi again.”

“Samantha started walking Benny last week. Her kind and calm demeanor and professionalism were obvious when she came for a meet and greet before her first walk. She is punctual, and Benny clearly loves her. More importantly, our cat gave her his instant approval! We are so happy to have her help as we acclimate to having a dog again, especially a puppy!”

About: I grew up with pets of all kinds, I have been a veterinary assistant for 3 years and have been pack-hiking with dogs full time for about 8 months now. I should be regularly available Monday, Wednesday, and Friday afternoons and evenings, and the occasional weekend. Those mornings and the other days, I work full time with dogs, either pack-hiking or doggy daycare. I do not do sitting, I only do walking as I have pets at home that are my responsibility and I live with other people.

About: I absolutely love animals of all kinds and own a sweet 19-year-old cat named Jet. I've owned and lived with pets throughout my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, and birds many times throughout my life. I have experience administering medications and love to play with animals. I look forward to meeting your furry and feathered friends! I am a 37-year-old professional swing dance instructor, classical vocal coach, and piano teacher. I received my Bachelor's degree in Choral-Vocal Music Education from Bob Cole Conservatory of Music at CSULB. I studied Molecular Biology for 3 years before deciding to pursue teaching dance and music. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible to tend to pets' needs throughout the day. I have worked in a variety of settings, including restaurants, music halls, recording studios, summer camps, dance studios, tutoring, and babysitting. I enjoy classic movies, gardening, crossword puzzles, camping, and cooking. I rely on the client to set the ground rules for their own home and pets, and adhere to those guidelines. Every pet parent has a good feel for their pet’s needs and care, and I look forward to learning about each unique pet I get to care for.

“Tiffany is awesome! She was able to squeeze me in last minute which I was super appreciative of. Quick responder, very kind, and loved the updates and pics! 11/10 already planning on booking again!”

About: My entire life I have been raised alongside animals of all kinds, so I have a genuine passion for their care. It was always a responsibility of mine to help take care of our own at home pets as a kid, but eventually I moved up to helping out other family members, friends of family, neighbors, friends of friends, etc. with their pets while they were out working, on vacation, or just out on the town for the night. This included making sure pet was safe, happy, fed, relieved of any potty breaks, had constant access to water, and was enriched with plenty of play time and some treats! I'm currently available Sun-Mon, 9a-3p. I can make some exceptions here and there for different times during those days, just need more information of time and reason. There is a perfectly quiet and spacious dog park right here in my neighborhood. I do have a Dachshund and cat at home. Kitty is very friendly and playful with dogs XS-L, the menace of the house is the Dachshund. He is very temperamental with other dogs, but has never been aggressive.

About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life and I started doing Rover when my elderly dog Marley passed. Deep knowledge of animal care, administering medicine, working with all dogs from puppies to senior citizens. I'm currently retired but play music on the side and have great flexibility to provide regular pet care, house sitting, drop ins and dog walks. I love walking dogs, playing fetch and keeping them entertained while you are traveling. And I'm happy to house-sit and provide care at your home as well.

“Beverly and Sterling are knowledgeable, patient, and dependable. I have two rescue dogs I feel very protective of, they were very supportive and helpful getting both owner and dogs comfortable. They clearly have a passion for dogs, that matters to me. And my dogs love them!”

Lauren S.

“I’m seeing such huge improvements in my dog’s reactivity issue because of all the good work Cathy has been putting in, showering him with treats, etc, during their walks!”
