“Bobbie was great with my kitties. She even went above and beyond with cleaning and more importantly recognizing that Chappy was not doing well. I was able to return quickly and get him to the vet for urgent care. Highly recommended”

“Alicia was SO helpful with our last minute request and went above and beyond to care for Rosie, especially since they had never met! She sent so many pics and we felt so comfortable having her in our home. We will definitely be using her again! Thank you!”

“Emily is wonderful! She has watched our dog and cat for short drop in visits and extended overnight boarding. She’s very detail oriented and follows directions exactly as written. She sends lots of updates and photos. She’s very kind and thoughtful with our pets. We’ll definitely continue to book her for future stays.”

“Dalia took such loving care of our two cats while we were away visiting family! The cats got plenty of cuddles and playtime (as well as the usual food and litter box cleanings) under her care and Dalia sent us regular updates and pictures about how they were doing. She was a fantastic cat sitter to work with — I can’t recommend her enough! ?”

About: I work at a doggy daycare! I work with all different size dogs and I also have three animals of my own! I love animals soo much and will love them just like you do! I work Monday through Friday, I can do early morning before 745am and evenings after 7pm. I have weekends free. So I can do drops in anytime of day. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family and do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible while you’re away. Whether your pet wants to play, go for walks, or just have someone to hang out with, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your best friend is happy, safe, and getting lots of love.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs from family friends, friends and people that have heard I do it, I am very good when it comes to understanding pets and how to train them. I trained both of my dogs and they have outstanding behavior! I think is very flexible and I feel like with my schedule now is very good because I can take care of him all day and then class is late at night, at that time my younger brother is home and he stays with the pet till I am home! Everyone is the household pitches in and the pet doesn’t spend time alone, they will be taken on walks if needed and will sit with them out in the yard for however time needed! I take of pets at my home like another human being, we love them, clean them, and put priority for them. They never go unnoticed and they always get the time each and every pet deserves! If there’s any special accommodations they will be applied to make everyone comfortable and safe!
“We had such a wonderful experience with Jessa! From the very beginning, she was kind, responsive, and communicated with us so well. She always replied promptly, sent lots of updates and photos, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We have two senior dogs, one who takes daily medication, and both have some anxiety when we’re not home. Jessa was so patient and caring with them, and it was obvious they felt comfortable in her care. She handled everything perfectly. The biggest surprise was our cat! She almost never comes out for anyone, but she came out to see Jessa every single visit. My whole family couldn’t believe it when we saw the photos and videos. You can truly tell Jessa loves animals, and they seem to sense that too. We are so grateful we found her and will absolutely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and genuinely cares for your pets as if they were her own, I can’t recommend Jessa enough.”

About: I have owned pets a majority of my adult life. We currently have two pugs and three cats, we recently lost our oldest pug. Animals bring me joy they are loyal, loving, and true companions. My husband and I are empty Nester‘s and have a little more time on our hands these days. Thought i’d give back our time until grandkids come along …. I do work full time but my schedule is flexible. I can go before work, during lunch and after work. Weekends are usually pretty open. I am a home owner and a pet owner myself so I would treat your home and pet just as I would my own. I’m a woman of integrity and hold that title highly.
“Thanks to Thomas taking excellent drop-in care of my fur babies, my overnight getaway was relaxing and worry free, plus he took extremely cute action shots of their walks. I will definitely be asking him to care for them again.”


About: As a professional dog bather, I spend my days ensuring dogs of all shapes, sizes, and temperaments feel clean, comfortable, and safe. My daily work gives me hands-on experience handling different coat types, reading canine body language, and keeping pets calm during routine care. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to two rescue-level personality powerhouses—a high-energy Black Lab and a strong, affectionate Cane Corso/American Bully mix. Living with and caring for both friendly, active pups and powerful, large breeds means I am entirely comfortable managing dogs of any strength, energy level, or size. Whether your dog needs an engaging, controlled walk or attentive in-home sitting, I bring professional handling skills, deep patience, and genuine love to every pet I care for. As a professional dog bather, my daily work centers on reading animal body language, handling pets of all sizes, and creating a calm, safe environment for every animal in my care. My life at home is just as pet-focused: I manage a vibrant household with two large, energetic dogs—a Black Lab and a Cane Corso/American Bully mix—and five cats. Living with five felines and two powerful dog breeds gives me hands-on, daily experience with everything from high-energy walks and large-breed handling to subtle cat behavior, multi-pet routines, and meticulous home safety. Whether your pets need an active, controlled walk or attentive, low-stress in-home sitting, I bring professional handling skills, deep patience, and true everyday multi-pet experience to every visit. Care in My Home (Apartment Living) Structured Outdoor Time & Frequent Breaks: Living in an apartment means outdoor time is always active and intentional. I take dogs out frequently throughout the day for structured, leash-guided walks and bathroom breaks to keep them exercised, happy, and comfortable. Crate-Trained & Calming Environment: As a multi-pet owner (including a Black Lab and a Cane Corso/Bully mix), my home is built on clear routines and safety. My own dogs are well-trained and crate-trained. Crate training allows for safe, stress-free boundaries, individualized downtime, and secure separation whenever needed (e.g., during feeding times or quiet rest). Indoor Enrichment & Constant Supervision: Because apartment space is defined, pets in my care receive close, direct supervision, interactive indoor play, and dedicated individual attention rather than being left unattended in a yard. Maintaining Familiar Routines: I strictly mirror your established feeding, walking, and medication schedules so your pets feel completely secure in their familiar environment. Low-Stress Handling & Body Language Expertise: Drawing on my professional bathing background, I monitor pets for subtle signs of stress or discomfort, ensuring low-stress interactions—whether that means gentle companionship for sensitive cats or structured leash control for energetic dogs. Multi-Pet Home Management: I am thoroughly experienced in managing multi-pet households safely, keeping dogs and cats on their respective feeding and play routines while ensuring entryways and doors remain strictly secure. Cleanliness & Respect for Your Space: I leave your home exactly as I found it—handling litter box maintenance, wiping muddy paws after walks, cleaning feeding areas, and keeping your pets safe and comfortable while you're away.
About: I’ve been house sitting for quite some time now, watch all sorts of animals from fish, dogs, cats, and reptiles! I have a dog and cat of my own as well as a corn snake, tarantula, and roaches! So… I’m well versed in the animal world and I’m ready to hep with whatever animal you have for me! I love all pets and I’m passionate about making sure your baby is well loved! I work part time while I’m getting ready to start my teaching credential. I have full availability Fridays and Saturdays to feed, check in, or walk your pup! Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday I can walk in the mornings before 8am or evenings after 4pm as needed. Wednesdays I am available until 5pm and Sundays i am free after 12pm! I can easily take your dog on long or short walks depending on the breed as well as control them if they tend to be more free spirited. I’ve handled medical emergencies to older dogs when house sitting before and I am able to give medicine if required.
About: ⚠️ PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE CONTACTING ⚠️ To ensure we're a good fit and to respect both our time, please review my pricing and policies below before reaching out. Thank you! Welcome! I'm so glad you're here 🐾 Why families choose me I know how hard it is to leave your furry family member with someone new. That's why I'd love for you to visit my home before booking – see where your pet will stay, meet me in person, and get a feel for the environment. No pressure, just peace of mind. Here's what makes my care different: I only take two to three pets at a time. Yes, I have space for more, but I intentionally keep things small. Your pet isn't just another booking; they get my full attention, a calm environment, and the kind of care I'd want for my own pet. Since I work from home, your pet is never alone. If your pup has separation anxiety or just loves company, they'll have me nearby all day. I genuinely treat every guest like they're part of my family. What you can expect • Photos you'll actually love: I take pride in capturing beautiful moments of your pet. Check out my profile photos – that's the quality you'll get! I want you to see your pet's personality shine and know they're happy and loved. • Real communication: During business hours, you can call me anytime. Need an update? Have a question? I'm here. Your peace of mind matters. • A spotless home: My place is deep-cleaned weekly. It's fresh, odor-free, and hygienic. You're always welcome to visit! Just a heads up – I do ask guests to remove shoes to keep things pristine. • Safe outdoor space: The backyard has seven gorgeous redwood trees that provide tons of shade. That said, your pup will spend most of their time inside with me, where it's cool and comfortable. I never leave dogs unsupervised outside for extended periods. • A calm, quiet home: No young kids, and no elderly family members. Just a peaceful space where your pet can relax and be the star of the show. • No pool: One less thing to worry about! Safety first. Important details about care & pricing • Veterinary care: If I notice anything concerning about your pet's health, I'll contact you immediately (and Rover). If I can't reach you, I'll take them to the vet. All bookings are covered by Rover's Guarantee (up to $25,000 for eligible vet expenses). • Pricing adjustments: I do charge additional fees for certain situations to ensure I can provide the best care: Small: Base Rate Medium dogs: (30-60 lbs): +$15 Large dogs (60-90 lbs): +$20 Giant dogs (90-200 lbs): +$100 Puppies under 1 year (not potty trained): +$125 Why the large/giant dog fees? I want to be transparent about this. • Decline other reservations: due to the lack of space, I might need to be forced to cancel other reservations to ensure we have adequate space for your furry friend. • Space & capacity: When I host a large or giant breed, it often means I can only take one other pet (or sometimes no other pets) to ensure everyone has adequate space and comfort. This limits my availability for other bookings. • Physical demands: Larger dogs require more physical strength and energy – from handling on walks to managing their movements indoors. It's more intensive work to provide the attentive, hands-on care they deserve. • Wear and resources: Bigger dogs naturally need more of everything – more food, more space, more cleanup. They also create more wear on furniture, floors, and the home environment. • Individual attention: Every dog gets my full focus, but larger dogs often need extra time and specialized care to ensure they're comfortable and happy in my home. This pricing ensures I can give your large or giant dog the quality, individualized attention they deserve without compromising on care. Why the puppy fee? Puppies are wonderful, but they need specialized care! I take your pup out every 30 minutes to support their potty training and help them develop good habits. It's hands-on work, but it makes a real difference. If your puppy is already crate and potty trained, I'm happy to waive this fee. Again, please review these details before reaching out so we can make sure we're the right fit for your pet! I can't wait to meet you and your furry friend! 🐕💕 A day in the life with me 🌅 I'm naturally an early riser, which works out perfectly for your pup! Here's what a typical day looks like: Morning: We start the day with a refreshing morning walk to get those legs moving and set a positive tone for the day. Throughout the day: Your dog will get regular potty breaks in my backyard all morning long. Since I work from home, I'm always here to let them out when they need it. Evening: When the weather's nice, we'll wind down with an evening walk to stretch, explore, and burn off any remaining energy. This is the exact routine I followed with my own dog, and it worked wonders for his potty training. He learned to trust that I'd take him out when needed, and I learned to trust that he'd wait. It's all about consistency and communication! Your dog will seamlessly become part of my daily rhythm – same love, same care, same attention I gave my own. They're not just a guest; they're family while they're here. 🐕❤️ 🐣They will be in a safe and secure environment, where no dog will be distressed. I prioritize understanding each dog's behavior by discussing their temperament with clients and taking proactive measures to ensure a calm and harmonious atmosphere. This is why I limit the number of dogs to a maximum of two per night, to maintain individual attention and safety for all pets involved.

“Keira provided great services for me and my mom’s kitties. She left just the right amounts of food and the litter boxes were cleaned. It was nice to come home to a fresh smelling house after our weekend away.”


About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of breeds and personalities. Growing up, my family had a German Shorthaired Pointer, a Labrador Retriever, and a Boxer-Pit Bull mix, which gave me experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. For the past four years, I’ve also regularly cared for a pair of Jack Russell Terriers while their owners were away. In addition, I’ve house- and dog-sat for two Brittanys and have checked in on outdoor cats on multiple occasions. I also have a black tuxedo cat of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines. I’m currently working part time and in a Masters in Kinesiology program online. I am free all evenings after 4 pm in the month of August, and also free some mornings before 12pm! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.
“Sierra did an amazing job of watching our fur babies while we were away. She eased our anxieties and sent us updates when she would check in. Sierra was patient with our pups and we couldn’t have asked for things to go any smoother. We will definitely be rebooking with Sierra anytime we need a pet sitter.”

“Sara saved the day with my Georgia Peach tonight. While at the dog park she found some mud and decided to play in it making her a muddy mess! Sara was able to start to finish get her in and out of the bath like a champ! Georgia looks good as new, ready for her pet therapy work tomorrow. Thank you Sara for being so flexible, loving and kind to Georgia. You are amazing!!!!”

I’m so grateful for the wonderful care she gave my two furbabies while I was away on a 5-day vacation. 🐾❤️ She took great care of them and gave me peace of mind knowing they were safe and well cared for. I truly appreciate everything she did for my babies. I would definitely trust her to take care of them again! Highly recommend! 🐱💕

Emily is wonderful! She has watched our dog and cat for short drop in visits and extended overnight boarding. She’s very detail oriented and follows directions exactly as written. She sends lots of updates and photos. She’s very kind and thoughtful with our pets. We’ll definitely continue to book her for future stays.

Amanda is great! She’s been watching my dog for ten years and I trust her and feel comfortable leaving him with her. She is very attentive and has great communication. I know when I go on trips I do not have to worry because of the great service she provides! Highly recommend!
Alivia was truly the best cat sitter we could have asked for! This was the first trip I’ve ever taken where I felt completely stress-free leaving my cats behind, and that says a lot because I’m very particular about their care. She followed every instruction so thoughtfully and genuinely cared for them the same way I do. She even handled giving my cat Millie her oral medication with no issues, which isn’t always easy! She also did such an amazing job keeping us updated and somehow got the sweetest photos of the cats, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. The biggest testament to how wonderful she is was that both of my cats trusted her! they’re extremely skittish around new people, so seeing them feel comfortable with her meant everything to me. When we got home, the house was spotless, the cats were happy and relaxed, and I could tell they had been so well cared for. Alivia is respectful, reliable, and clearly has such a natural love for animals. I can’t recommend her enough, and I genuinely hope she’s available every time we travel in the future!

Bianca was such a pleasure to work with. She was very knowledgeable about dogs and brought a calm energy. We instantly felt relieved to know that our Sadie was being taken care of by someone who has a passion for working with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I would definitely recommend Bianca to anyone who is looking for a sitter for their fur baby.
