“Tania was an exceptional Rover and did an amazing job with our girls! We got updates for walks and meals every day with pictures. She kept our house clean and even picked up the dog poop in the backyard. We will definitely be using her for all of our future Rover activities l if she’ll have us 👍🏼”


“David was an excellent dog sitter!! I felt so comfortable letting him stay in our home and take care of our furry babies! He was very patient with our high energy dog and even went above and beyond to make sure our little dog ate by adding some extra food which I didn’t have time to prepare before my trip. He also communicated very well!! I would highly recommend David as a dog sitter!”


“Vanessa is caring, kind, and professional. Our nervous Pitbull mix loved her and was comfortable with her right away. We’ll definitely book her again!”


“Kendra was fabulous! She stayed with our senior dog and cat over Christmas weekend. Her communication was great - I received updates and pictures every day that we were gone. It was obvious she was comfortable and experienced with animals. We came home to two happy, relaxed animals who didn't even seem to notice that we had left them. Definitely recommend and definitely would book again.”


About: I grew up with cats and a few dogs and miss them all everyday. I’m a very responsible previous pet owner and due to not being able to have one due to current work schedule why not find a way to hang out with some. I’ve used Rover in the past and love it. Pick me!! I’m a travel nurse working 4 shifts a week but with the lower census my days are getting cut and I’m looking to make a few extra $. I love pets and figured this would be a great way to hang out with some and kill the boredom. I’m a responsible previous pet owner. I’m a nurse certified in BLS, NIH and ACLS. I know pets are different but I’m very skilled in keeping a close eye on folks and showing love and being there for them. ( and I really want to hang out with cute animals again)


About: I have grown up with dogs for as long as I can remember. My mom was a poodle breeder and I would help her take care of puppies and play with them. If they ever got sick I was able to help with shots and keeping them clean. I also have house sat with my grandmas pets, two have diabetes so I also know how to give shots if needed. I also have experience feeding animals specific foods and amounts. I love animals and get along with them greatly. I also care deeply about making sure your animals feel comfortable and happy. I enjoy walking my three dogs so I figured I could walk other peoples dogs and make some extra money while enjoying spending time with them.

About: As a Registered Veterinary Technician with over 10 years of experience, I bring both professional training and a genuine love for animals to every pet I care for. Whether it's giving medications, helping senior pets feel comfortable, or keeping up with a playful puppy, I’ve done it all—and I truly enjoy it! I know how to spot when something isn’t quite right and how to make pets feel calm and cared for. Your pet isn’t just getting a sitter—they’re getting someone who will treat them like family, make sure they’re safe, happy, and maybe even a little spoiled while you’re away. As a full-time Registered Veterinary Technician, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life—it’s not just a job, it’s truly what I love. I regularly offer walks, drop-ins, and check-ins before or after my shifts, and I’m also available during lunch hours for quick visits or mid-day potty breaks. On weekends and holidays, I’m often even more flexible. My schedule is structured, but I make it a priority to fit in quality time with the pets I care for. Whether it’s a morning walk, a lunch-time cuddle, or an evening check-in, I’m committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. When I welcome pets into my home for boarding, I treat them like part of the family. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy whenever they want. I do my best to keep their routine just like they’re used to—whether that’s regular feeding times, walks, play sessions, or plenty of quiet downtime. My home is warm and pet-friendly, designed to help them feel safe and comfortable. With over 10 years of experience as a Registered Veterinary Technician, I’m prepared to handle any medical needs or special care your pet might require. Most importantly, I provide lots of love, attention, and positive vibes to make their stay fun and stress-free. I also keep pet parents updated regularly so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in great hands.

About: I simply have a love for animals and they love me back! What could be more perfect than that? My name is Darci and I'm an experienced sitter. I would love to build a bond and provide love and comfort for your babies in their homes. You can count on play and adventure time, cuddles, and lots of love for your babies while you are away. We like to follow normal routines and we send lots of updates w/ pictures and videos to stay connected until you return <3 My schedule is currently open for house sittings and walk-ins. I do have other clients I check in on throughout the day, so it is important that your babies are okay with being alone for a short periods of time (4hrs max) Let's have a chat and we can discuss what's needed to make sure everyone is the most comfortable while you're away, we'lll talk about information that would help better take care of your fur babies.

“Victoria was amazing. She was flexible and took care of our pups with utmost care. She loved on our dogs the way we love on them. Victoria was super sweet and the fact that my skittish dog Frida latched on to her, means that Victoria was gentle and loving towards her. Thanks again for keeping us worry free when we were at the wedding.”


About: I've always had love for animals and enjoy taking care of them. I find interesting their behaviors I feel I learn from them.

About: I love animals💕 ive taken care of dogs my whole life and ive had huskies, shih tzus, pitbulls, and a basset hound so that means big or small breeds are welcome.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of many different breeds and sizes. No crate unless you are strict on your dog sleeping in a crate. If so, will need to bring your dog’s own crate. Fully fenced & gated dog park on the property. I am also available for pick up & drop off services within the Walnut Creek Area. I work from home which allows me to spend quality time with each of the dogs I care for. This quality time allows the to understand the dogs temperament and personality, creating a peaceful and safe environment for them. I have an apartment with a gated dog park where dogs can play and run freely and safely. Safety is always the top priority for me and I would never expose a dog to danger.

About: I have taken care of dogs in all size for over 10 years. I have stayed at peoples houses for up to 3 weeks or have just done daily checks on them. I have also taken care of cats as well. I am trustworthy, reliable, and there for anything you or the dog needs. I have two dogs of my own, so I’m very well versed in dogs needs. I have provided shots to dogs before as well as other medication. I work doing home behavioral health therapy, so my daily schedule will be inconsistent, but will have time to check on the animals during the day. I have a fenced yard and sometimes we will be going to my parents a mile down the road and they have a fenced yard. I have doggy doors for east in and out access for bathroom breaks

About: Hi, I've had dogs my entire life. They have always been part of my family. I am a volunteer at a no kill non profit animal shelter. I also sit on the board of directors as Treasure for a non profit foundation for a Tulare animal shelter. I go at least once a week and have been doing so for almost 2 years. I love taking out the bigger dogs to give them the exercise and socialization they desperately need. I'm very active in the pet community in Tulare. I work full time. I work a few days from home during the week so I'm free during those days and weekends are free. I'm able to go several times during the day and evenings. I am respectful of everyone's homes and will make sure their fur babies are comfortable when their family cannot be home. I will try not to disrupt their schedule.

“Jaime was SO amazing with our home and dogs. She provided updates during her stay and sent us pictures without being asked. Even going above and beyond bringing packages inside for us.

Chloe S.
“Chloe is a great dog sitter. She stayed with my four dogs and cat for one week while I was on vacation. She was very detail oriented when it came to feeding and giving my diabetic animals shots. She also walked them on a route we gave her and she was happy to walk them as much as we asked. The dogs bonded well with her as well!”


Diana C.
“I cannot speak highly enough about Diana and the extraordinary care she provides to animals. From the moment you meet her, it’s clear that her compassion, patience, and genuine love for animals are unmatched. Whether it’s nursing a rescued pet back to health, providing daily care, or simply offering comfort and affection, Diana goes above and beyond every single time. Her deep understanding of animal behavior and her calming presence make even the most anxious animals feel safe and loved. I’ve seen firsthand how she treats every creature with dignity, respect, and kindness — as if they were her own. If you are looking for someone who will care for your pet like family, or if you admire people who are truly making a difference in the lives of animals, look no further than Diana. She is a rare and beautiful soul, and we are all better for the love and dedication she pours into every animal she touches.”
