“First time hiring a pet sitter, and Adaley was awesome. Friendly and professional, kept us updated, and our shy cats loved her. Will definitely be reaching out again next time we need a sitter!”
“We’ve asked Alexis to care for our cats many times, and she has consistently done a wonderful job. She gives them exceptional attention and clearly cares for their well-being. Knowing they’re in such good hands allows us to feel completely at ease whenever we’re out of town. We absolutely trust her and will continue to rely on her to care for our cats in the future.”
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats for over 25 years, and I've been an animal lover all my life. I'm a long time volunteer for animal rescue organizations, and have fostered several dogs over the years. These experiences have provided me with a great deal of education about animal care, as well as expert contacts when I need advice. I have experience with puppies as well as senior dogs, and dogs with separation anxiety. I believe all dogs deserve a loving home, and that includes a sitter who treats them like family when they can't be with their family! And all cats deserve a personalized mix of love and independence. I'm currently home full-time, so my schedule is very flexible. My availability will mostly depend on my other pet care commitments. I'm looking forward to filling more of my days with doggos, taking walks, playing in the park, and snuggling on the couch! My home and vehicle are both geared towards dog-friendliness and safety. Pets are allowed on the furniture, I have several dog beds, space for separate feeding stations, car seatbelt harnesses, and a lift harness. I have a large fenced patio, and my neighborhood is quiet and walkable. I also have access to a small, private dog park in my complex and a large, public one nearby. If your pet has a specific schedule or needs, I'm happy to accommodate them.
“Hi Valerie, I hope you can help us out this Wed. and Thurs. (May 31st-June 1st). Everything would be the same as the last time. Sorry, this is short notice but I need to go to my cabin to rake and burn before the burn season is over. PS. I do need to give you a tip for the last time. Thank you. Karen Brown in Lafayette Mochi and Tigger”
“Andrielle did an amazing job taking care of Cleo, as well as bringing in mail & deliveries & watering plants! Cleo was happy when I got home which says a lot about being taken care of by someone new. I highly recommend Andrielle!”
“Once again Tania was absolutely amazing. We have a very spoiled, special needs cat and Tania always follows all of our instructions and requests with a smile. We also have a lot of plants that need attention - during a heat wave while we were gone she ensured everything was watered and still green when we returned. We can go on vacation and truly relax knowing our fur baby and our home is in good hands.”

“Veronica house sat and took care of our cats for us for 9 days over Christmas. She did a great job of sending us pics and videos and our cats seemed to like her a lot. The house was also very clean when we returned. She is recommended.”
“Christian did a wonderful job taking care of our cat. He is very reliable and detailed oriented. He sent me regular photos and texts of Gus Gus and we felt very comfortable that our kitty was in good hands. I'll definitely book Christian again!”
About: What can I say? I love dogs! I have extensive experience with dogs and previously fostered them in my home through Hopalong Animal Rescue in Oakland, CA. I grew up with dogs, and I’m currently owned by a handsome red Doberman Pinscher named Cairo. I’m comfortable with all breeds. I work full-time in the marketing industry but have a fairly flexible schedule. I regularly hike with my dog, play fetch, enjoy beach days—you name it. These are all things I’d love to do with your dog, too! Whether it’s a neighborhood walk or a hike, your pooch will be well cared for. Take a look at my dog’s Instagram page to see some of our adventures—his handle is @cairothereddoberman. Thanks for your time, and I look forward to working with you! My niche is providing pet care for pet parents who work extensive, non-traditional hours—including night shifts, weekends, holidays, and other irregular schedules. I understand how challenging it can be to find reliable, high-quality care during these times, and I’m here to help ensure your dog receives the love, attention, and exercise they need, no matter your work hours. My company is fully insured and certified in pet first aid. I’m also happy to share GPS location updates while walking or hiking with your fur babies, so you can have peace of mind knowing exactly where we are.

Alisa F.
“Testimonial for Alisa Freeman - Exceptional Pet Sitter I am absolutely delighted to write this testimonial for Alisa Freeman, who has been an incredible cat sitter for my beloved feline companion. Having known Alisa for some time, I can confidently say that her passion for animals is truly remarkable and shines through in every interaction. Alisa has an impressive 15 years of experience in both dog and cat sitting, and it's clear that this isn't just a job for her – it's a calling. She possesses a deep, genuine love for animals, which is immediately evident in how they respond to her. My cat, who is reserved and does not like strangers absolutely adores Alisa and greets her with purrs and head rubs every time because she is gentle and does not force a connection. Beyond her innate connection with pets, Alisa is incredibly responsible and reliable. When she's caring for my cat, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my pet is in the safest hands. She ensures they receive plenty of attention, playtime, and, for dogs, lots of invigorating walks. She goes above and beyond to make sure the animals in her care are not just looked after, but truly happy and well-cared for. If you're looking for a pet sitter who combines extensive experience with a profound love for animals and unwavering responsibility, look no further than Alisa Freeman. Your furry friends will thank you!”

“Amber is caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. She has boarded and cared for my doberman like her own. From managing his walks, feeding cycles and separation anxiety, her experience is unmatched. I don't trust leaving my dog with anyone due to some of his quirks and needs, but I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Amber.”

Lafayette cat parents share their Rover experiences
Michael saved our trip when he stepped in after our pet sitter (from another platform) cancelled five days before our departure. Between a family member and Michael's drop ins, we were able to cobble together a schedule to meet our pet care needs. Upon meeting Michael, we could immediately sense how comfortable and adept he was at handling Sky, our 100lb American Bulldog, and caring for two persnickety senior cats. We felt at ease with his calm demeanor, knowledge and experience with cats and dogs. He was easy to work with and flexible to accommodate our family member's changing work schedule. We found happy and healthy pets when we returned home. Thank you, Michael, from the bottom of our hearts.
Allison took wonderful care of our baby, Luna, while we were away for three weeks. Three weeks is a long time and I was terrified about leaving Luna behind, but Allison took wonderful care of her. It was such a comfort to know that Luna was safe and cared for. Allison went above and beyond to make friends with Luna (she can be sassy) and care for her. I especially enjoyed the frequent videos and photos that Allison sent. Luna is now a BIG FAN of Auntie Allison! We're excited to work with Allison again when we next go on a trip.
Tara did an awesome job dropping in and taking care of our cats while we were out of town. We met her before we left and knew we could trust her! Our cats were in great hands! We loved the photos that she sent and how clean the litter boxes were when we returned! We would definitely hire her again!! Thank you so much, Tara! 😻😻
