Pet Sitting Golden Valley Acres

“Jessie is the best! My cat can be very anxious around new people, but Jessie made it so easy for my senior cat (14 years old) to come to her and made her feel very comfortable. Plus, Jessie is very respectful of my home and my privacy. I appreciate her professional cat-sitting services. I already have Jessie booked for future services. :)”

“Mariah was GREAT! She watched our cats while we took a holiday trip this Thanksgiving and she was very attentive, caring, kind, and even sent us photos of our babies while we were gone! It was so reassuring knowing they were in such great hands! She is an animal lover who is currently studying to work with animals as well! We loved her care so much that we booked her for another vacation where we will be out of town! She will treat your pets the way you would treat them, it comes very natural to her!”

About: 🐾 A Lifetime of Love, Now Sharing It Through Rover Hi! I’m Isaac, and I’ve been caring for dogs for over 9 years. Before joining Rover, I worked for free because I simply love animals and wanted to help people in my community. Over time, my passion grew into a professional career where I get to do what I love every day — caring for dogs and making pet parents’ lives easier. I’m also an up-and-coming book writer, which means I’m extremely organized, focused, and detail-oriented. I take notes on every dog I care for so I can fully understand their personality, quirks, and needs. I always do meet & greets before starting any job so that your pet feels comfortable and you can feel confident that they’re in safe hands. I’m calm, patient, and dependable, even in the most stressful or chaotic situations — whether it’s handling a dozen energetic pups, an overly affectionate dog, or cleaning up big messes (which I always do so well you’d never know it happened!). I can handle pregnant dogs, multiple pets, and any breed, and I even offer free basic training for dogs who need a little help with manners — as long as they’re not aggressive. I understand all a dog’s cues — when they’re happy, nervous, or uneasy — and I always listen to what they’re trying to communicate. I take pride in the fact that I’ve never failed a single dog I’ve worked with, no matter how challenging the job was. The only pets I don’t take are aggressive or unpredictable dogs that have a tendency to bite, nip. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and positive experience for every animal I care for. I’m quick to respond to requests and open to long-term clients who want a sitter they can rely on year-round. If you’re looking for someone who’s passionate, responsible, and treats your pets like family, I’d love to be your go-to sitter! 🐶💙 Hi there! I’m so excited to be offering my dog sitting, walking, and drop-in services here on Rover. While I may be new to the platform, I’m definitely not new to caring for dogs! For the past 9 years, I’ve been the go-to dog sitter for family, friends, and neighbors — caring for pups of all ages, breeds, and personalities. Over the years, I’ve learned that every dog is wonderfully unique — and they deserve care that’s just as personal. Whether it’s a drop-in visit for some playtime and cuddles, a long refreshing walk, or overnight house sitting, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and understood. Here’s what makes my care a little different: 🐶 Heartfelt, Personalized Attention I don’t just “check in” — I connect. I take time to learn each dog’s quirks, favorite games, and comfort zones. Whether your dog is shy, energetic, or needs a little extra patience, I adjust my approach to make them feel completely at ease. 🚶 Walks That Nurture Mind & Body Walks with me are more than just a potty break — they’re time for enrichment, sniffing adventures, and positive energy. I match your dog’s pace and personality to make each walk both fun and fulfilling. 🏡 Respectful, Reliable Care at Home When I’m in your home, you can trust I’ll treat it — and your pets — with the same care and respect I give my own. You’ll always receive clear communication, photo updates, and peace of mind knowing your furry friend is happy and well cared for. ❤️ Built on Experience, Fueled by Love I’ve spent nearly a decade caring for dogs simply because I love it. Now, joining Rover lets me do what I love most — bringing comfort, joy, and trust to pets and their people. Your dog isn’t just another booking — they become part of my extended furry family. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares, not just someone who “sits,” I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 🕓 Availability & Scheduling I aim to make pet care as flexible and stress-free as possible for every family I work with. 🐾 Drop-In Visits: Available any day and time — except on major family holidays. I’m happy to accommodate morning, midday, or evening visits to fit your dog’s routine. 🏡 House Sitting: I’m available for overnight or extended stays anytime. I just ask for at least one day’s notice so I can plan accordingly and give your pet my full attention. 🚶 Dog Walks: I offer walks daily between 3:00 PM and 11:00 PM — perfect for after-work strolls, evening walks, or nighttime potty breaks. Please note: I do not offer walks past 11:00 PM. Communication and consistency are important to me, so I always confirm bookings promptly and keep you updated with messages and photos during my visits. My goal is to give you total peace of mind — knowing your pets are cared for with reliability, love, and respect for your schedule. Hello!

About: My family had puppy dog named Hazel who we had for about 3 years. I used to play fetch with her in the backyard when I’d come home from school when I was around 10. I’d help with baths, walking her, my mom taught me how bring her inside when I was home alone doing homework, she behaved great and protected me well. A few years later, she passed from choking while eating something that I think had a bone in it and that was the first experience of heartbreak/loss. A few years after that, I adopted my current pet cat on my birthday, Ace, who I love so much. I’ve always loved animals and give pets to dogs whenever I have permission to, my best friend has many dogs so when I go over her house, I get all the cuddles and get drooled on, which I’m used to at this point. I love watching dog training videos and educating myself as I get older so when I finally get a dog again, as an adult, I want to be prepared and educated on how to protect their health, feed them properly and keep them safe with proper nutrition, exercise and training. I would personally love to get myself a Doberman or German Shepherd (Like Hazel was). I often go to my aunts house who has multiple chunky french bulldogs and help her in anyway I can, I enjoy how sweet dogs are and would love to help do any training techniques you’d love your little doggo to be working on while you are away. I am also in the process of my goal of losing 100lbs! So this helps me get the exercise I need while doing something I’m passionate about! Weekday and Weekends for now, preferably during the Morning & Afternoons on Weekdays and anytime as long as there is a day notice beforehand so I can clear my schedule just for your pet. Not currently doing pet sitting or boarding at my own home, maybe I will be more likely to in the future but I’m not sure yet.

About: Dogs aren’t just a job for me — they’re genuinely my passion. I spent 7 years as a dog hotel manager, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities every single day. I’ve worked with energetic puppies, sweet senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities who need extra patience and specialized care. I’m comfortable administering medications, following detailed feeding routines, and making sure each dog feels safe, understood, and loved. I take pride in reading body language, keeping dogs on a consistent routine, and giving them the right balance of structure, play, and affection. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priority, and I’ll treat them like family. Plus, every dog gets a free bath after every stay! I currently own a mobile dog bathing business on the weekends, so I am only available Mon-Thurs, dogs are my life, and I travel anywhere in Victorville, Hesperia, Adelanto, and Apple Valley! With all of my experience at multiple dog hotels, I can safely say I have seen it all and feel extremely comfortable with all dog breeds, sizes, and personalities.

“Lisa was absolutely perfect when watching my new baby. She followed instructions very well, sent lots of photos and videos and even cleaned up after my girl when she had accidents in her crate. Lisa also gave me some awesome tips on caring not only for my girl dog but also my senior boy. Definitely will be booking her again when needed!”

About: I provide reliable care for both cats and dogs backed by years of hands-on work. My goal is a comfortable, no-stress experience for both you and your pet. I’ve worked with several animal rescues over the years and regularly foster animals in need. I’ve handled animals with many kinds of special needs, from bottle-feeding kittens to administering mediations to seniors. I also care for feral cats, so animals who are feisty don’t faze me! I truly love getting to know each pet I watch and making them feel as comfortable as possible while their family is away. I do my best to keep your pet(s) on their usual routine while you’re away, and always provide them with loving care. I’m patient and adaptable, personalizing care to each pet, whether that means playtime, cozy snuggles, or just keeping a calm presence nearby. I’m happy to communicate updates as much or as little as you prefer, and will send you photos so you can relax knowing your pets are safe and comfortable. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or special requests. I’m always open to discussing pricing, availability or anything else you’d like more information on. Talk soon! I work from home and caring for pets and is my top priority. I try to stick as close to your pet’s usual routine as possible. When boarding your pet, I provide a dedicated, comfortable space just for them, with everything they need to feel safe and at home. Each pet gets their own room (unless there are multiple from the same household) in a sanitized area, complete with cozy bedding, toys, and anything specific to their care. For dogs, I have a spacious, secure backyard where they can enjoy playtime and walks. I take the time to ensure they’re comfortable, relaxed, and loved while they’re away from home. When caring for your pet at your home, I stick to their routine, including feeding, medication, and plenty of playtime and affection. I respect your home and any guidelines you provide, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and cherished while you’re away. And if you’d like, I’ll gladly share photo or video updates with you! I know how hard it is missing your babies when you’re away, and I’d love to help you feel at ease and show you they’re being well cared for.

About: I have taken care of pets basically my entire life, of course I have had to learn and improve my skills from when I was younger. My family members have many pets which they rely on me to take care of when they are unable to. I am also going to school for a degree in biological sciences in hopes to find a career as a vet tech or anything which will allow me to work closely with animals. :) I am a 4th year biological science major at UC Merced. I hope to pursue a career which will allow me to work with animals closely while also spending time outdoors. I also am very interested in learning about animal husbandry and pet care. I love taking walks in the mornings and evenings, perfect for when dogs need to go potty! My services are mostly in clients’ homes because I have two cats and a small house which will not be big enough for larger animals like dogs. The way I care for pets in clients’ homes will be up to the client themselves as every pet parent has different ground rules and boundaries for their fur babies. I will do the basics like feeding and playing but will refrain from most other things unless requested to avoid stepping over boundaries, especially in other people’s homes.

“Ramon was super helpful. I had to leave on such short notice and Ramon was easily able to accommodate and help with both my dog and cat.”

About: New to Rover?! Enjoy $40 off on me: https://www.rover.com/sit/valerg17575 As someone working in healthcare, compassion and a desire to help others are central to who I am, qualities I bring into every pet care experience. I've grown up with dogs my whole life, but my bond with my soul dog, Copper, was something truly special. When Copper became sick, I cared for him with patience, love, and unwavering dedication—doing everything I could to make him comfortable and happy. That experience deepened my understanding of how important pets are to their families; they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. I treat every dog in my care with the same level of kindness and attentiveness I gave Copper. Safety is always my top priority, and I’m always learning and growing so I can provide the best care possible. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or quiet companionship, your pet will be loved and looked after like one of my own. I work full-time in healthcare Monday through Friday so I’m available for dog walks on weekday evenings around 5 PM with the exception of: (spring, summer, Thanksgiving, and winter break where I am available 7 days a week. On weekends, I have more flexibility and can offer walks, drop-in visits, and boarding. I’m available for boarding from Friday evening through Sunday, as well as drop-in visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Weekend walks can be scheduled at any time, based on your pet’s needs. I do my best to accommodate each family’s schedule and provide dependable, loving care every time! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Our home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor time, and we’re located near two parks that are perfect for peaceful walks. There’s also a nearby dog park for more active play, depending on your dog’s needs and energy level. Dogs are always welcome inside our home, though we kindly keep them off the furniture to maintain a clean and respectful space. We take pride in keeping our home safe, tidy, and pet-friendly, so your furry friend will always feel secure and cared for while staying with us.
