“I can’t begin to explain how grateful I am to have met Marty and Lynn. They were so accommodating and even flexible with some last-minute changes. My boy, Todd, was in absolute paradise in their lush backyard. They are so generous to open it up for daycare. I love seeing photos throughout the day of Todd’s relaxing day in their special care. We booked 2 dog sitting days, back to back and the second day when I dropped Todd off he was PULLING so excited to be back! I wish I lived closer and could have Todd see them all the time! They are fabulous dog people and I can’t wait for the next time we are in Santa Barbara.”
“Stacey was super nice, communicative, and even sent me multiple pics of my doggos while they were with her! They had a great time and played a bunch because once they got home they were all tired out. Thanks so much!”
“Alejandra & Rodrigo did a wonderful job caring for Dobby. We received regular care summaries with pictures each day which put us at ease that each day went well. We could see that Dobby was in the loving care of warm and friendly caregivers. We would definitely work with Alejandro & Rodrigo again!”
“I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy. When we picked him up, he was clearly well-cared for and in great spirits. Sandy truly saved the day. Thank you!”
“Jessica has been incredible. It is our first Rover experience and we truly appreciate how she has communicated with us throughout the day as we attended our son's wedding in Santa Barbara. We know Bella was well cared for! Thank you.”
“Damian did a great job watching over our two little ones! He provided plenty of updates during their stay and we felt like we could relax while they were in his care. Bella and Duncan came back tired out which is exactly what we were hoping for. Highly recommend Damian if you are looking for a playdate for your pup! Looking forward to using him again 🙂”
“They treated Marlo like family! She had many adventures and the best time, and was thoroughly worn out when we picked her up. Marlo seems very comfortable and happy there. Would entrust them with her care again!”
“This was my first time using rover and leaving my dog for day sitting. Last minute our sitter couldn’t watch our dog, so we brought her with us on our trip to Santa Barbara. We wanted to explore, but did not want to leave her in a motel room, so we looked for a doggie daycare. Honey was responsive and took our dog in last minute. Even on a holiday weekend. I was nervous about my dog having anxiety, but Honey was very friendly and communicated throughout the day to keep me posted about my dog’s day. She is excellent with animals and has a kind nature that dogs can sense. My dog was comfortable and she even got her to eat! Which is something my dog does not do when she’s away from home. Thank you Honey for opening your home to our Roxy.”
“Jacob and his wife are wonderful to work with. They cared for our Bella, and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. This is our 2nd time working together and we highly recommend them!”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I have experience caring for dogs with different energy levels, routines, and needs. Weather it’s daily walks or overnight visits, i’m confident handling all of your pets needs I am currently unemployed and am home from college for the summer so can devote as much of my time possible to walking, watching, feeding, and living your pets! I pride myself on great communication while you are aware to ensure both you and your pets are satisfied! I can send you photos through the day if that is something you are interested in, and can take into account any special needs your furry friends have.
“Jorrit, his family, and sweet dog JJ were wonderful caregivers for our dog, Gio for the day. A friendly, calm, and hospital environment provided a great retreat for Gio when I needed to be away. Thank you for being patient and loving towards him. I hope to be back.”
“Tory was wonderful caring for our Hans! He is a little shy/timid at first but he warmed up to her really quickly. I felt at ease having such a calming presence to care for Hans!”
“Emily is a personable, warm person who cared for our pup, Kimi, for an evening while we attended a wedding dinner. Would call her again when we are in the Santa Barbara area.”
“Tracy is wonderful! My dog, Murphy, is always so excited when he sees that we are at her place. He clearly feels very comfortable with Tracy. I'm so happy to have found someone my dog adores so much.”
“Bradley and Carolyn were fantastic sitters for Rocky. They kept him super active and entertained all three days of daycare, and Rocky came home very happy and tired each evening. Their location was super convenient for travelers staying or visiting in downtown Santa Barbara. Will definitely use again!”
“Anna is amazing! She is awesome with my 8 month old puppy and clearly knows a lot about dogs. Fritz loves his time with her- she is responsible, caring, and understanding. Would 100% recommend her!”
“Wendy was amazing with Tobi. She’s gentle and seems to really care about the dogs she watches. Tobi loved hanging out with her all day. Would trust Wendy with any of my pets anytime!”
About: I've always loved animals. I have two dogs of my own. As a dog walker, I am careful and put safety first, as I do with my own dogs. I am detailed oriented so if you give me specific directions, I'm going to execute accordingly. I am patient and flexible and respond well to the unexpected. I am reliable and hold my word with the utmost integrity. I practice positive reinforcement when working with dogs. I believe in the importance of dog socialization and regular exercise and think that long walks are so important. While we all have jobs, I'm excited to help you relieve any anxiety and give your doggy the care and attention she/he needs. I look forward to sharing my love with your doggy companion! <3 I have two dogs (a large and a medium size dog) but am in Santa Barbara working toward a PhD so my doggies are at home in San Francisco with my partner. On the upside, I have very flexible schedule, lots of love and care to give to dogs, and lots of experience with working with dogs! My home is dog friendly. My first dog used to live in Santa Barbara with me but once we got our second dog, we decided to keep them in San Francisco, where they have more space. I am a PhD student, therefore my apartment's size is proportionate with my meager PhD income. But, I live right next to beach and trail access. I also have a car with dog friendly seatbelt to take dogs to farther parks and hikes. I have a love for all animals, and treat all animals with care and attention. This is the same attention I will give to your pet. I'm used to active dogs, dogs needing medical care or strict schedule, anxious dogs, and am always willing to learn on the job!

My baby had such a good time at Wendy’s lovely house. She was a little anxious at first. Wendy is so patient and gave her so much love. She was happy and calm when we pick her up and became so close to Wendy. It’s a short day care but Wendy shared a lot of pictures, videos, and notes so we are not worry about her at all when attending our friend’s wedding. Will definitely come back!
Honey communicated well, and quickly. Even before booking she reached out to ensure everything with our booking request was accurate. She sent us plenty of pics of our dog having fun, unprompted. Our dog was happy and tired when she dropped him off and she gave us wonderful recommendations on other dog friendly places to go.
Angelin was so great with my goofy but super anxious dog Carl. I was worried about leaving him at a new place with a new person, but when we met Angelin, I felt totally comfortable about it. She has the most warm, calm energy and Carl was totally happy to hang out with her. She’s also really communicative and easy to work with. We had a great experience and will definitely reach out to her in the future.
I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy.

Megan was AMAZING! Very attentive and accommodating. Our concert was late to start and she was ok with keeping our puppy later than we had originally expected. We really appreciated her willingness to keep our fur baby safe and happy! Definitely recommend! Wonderful family! Thanks Megan!
I’m so grateful for Vivian & Taylor helping me out with Max. And it was a huge plus that my dog got to have a play date with Daisy! Communication was easy and clear. I had to make a last minute modification in my schedule & they were accommodating. They asked if Max had any special medical needs & let me see their home & backyard. I loved the updates—they sent photos & videos and I could tell Max was truly having a blast. I would highly recommend & would definitely book again!
This was our first time using Rover and we were a little hesitant about the whole process especially since our fur baby is timid and sometimes anxious. However, Saychelle was very sweet, communicative, and accommodating and quickly put me at ease. From the moment my husband dropped her off, we knew she was the perfect fit. If we are ever in the Santa Barbara area again, Saychelle will be our go to dog sitter.
Joshua is super friendly and even offered us tips on what to do in Santa Barbara, and which restaurants were dog friendly. He was very good with our dog Cocoa, and I don't think she even noticed that we were gone! We really appreciated Joshua's flexibility in terms of timing for the doggy daycare and would use him again if we were back in Santa Barbara.
Tonka often gets nervous around new people, but when meeting Tory, she immediately walked up to her for pets, heading straight up the stairs and into Tory's apartment. We could tell from all of the photos Tory shared that Tonka was super happy and content in her company. We'd have no hesitation booking Tory again.
