“Our dog had a fantastic day with Michael and Lara. It was easy leaving him for the day knowing he was going to be well taken care of and with other dogs to play with. Receiving pictures throughout the day was a huge plus!”


“Juan was amazing. He’s super friendly and accommodating and he took great care of our dog while we were away for a 10-day trip. She came back happy and I could tell she had a great time staying with him. Highly recommend!!”


“Second time dropping off Cillian with Delvin and since arrival I could tell Cillian was happy. Delvin keeps him entertained while also giving him plenty of time and space to relax.”


“Marilyn, Eyon, and Erilynn are all wonderfully friendly people who are great with dogs. It's comforting to have your dog literally jump for joy when he realizes he will be spending time with them.”



“Donna is great with Koa (minigoldendoodle puppy). Flexible with times, communicative & reliable. We love the photo updates during the day! Koa LOVES going to her place; he practically drags us to her door & in turn, we have to drag him away from the door when it’s time to leave. (I believe it says a lot about the love & care he gets at Donna’s!)”

“Mikayla is the best ! Our dog Lily has been here multiple times and she always has a great time. Mikayla was able to create a fun environment and lily was a happy tired pup at the end of the day. Highly recommend we will definitely bring Lily back anytime we need someone to look after her.”


“Derek is a great caregiver. We had him watch our 5 month old Maltipoo for a day while the family spent the day at Disneyland. He sent us videos and pictures throughout the day of the walks and playful moments. You can tell that Derek really loves dogs and treats them as if it were his own. We reached out to multiple potential caregivers on Rover prior to deciding on Derek. One of the things I really liked about Derek prior to meeting him was that he was the only one that proactively suggested having a meet and greet to make sure it was a good fit for both parties. That really gave me a good impression from the start and it turned out to be the right decision!”



About: I've had a pet over all my 25 years. Specifically smaller dogs, but I love them all (including cats!). I provided my late dog, who passed away this fourth of July, with up to three daily walks, consistent feeding schedule, kept him clean, and administered many medications for his 11 years of life. I miss having a pup to care for, and would love to provide my services for your baby. My other late dog lived to 18 years, so I have a knack for the senior dogs. I can easily adapt to their needs, and love keeping them active and entertained. I have a lot of love to give, so please give me a shot! I am currently a new graduate and looking for full-time work, so in the meantime I would love to give my attention to caring for others animals. I am still in the groove of taking care of animals since losing mine, so this would be a very easy adjustment. Typically my dog would get 2 walks minimum, one around 8 AM and an afternoon walk around 3 PM. This can be adjusted to your pets needs, of course! I have too much time on my hands while on the job quest and I can assure you your pet will get my undivided attention. I have a fenced yard of a decent size, fresh grass, and many toys to provide your pet with. If I am tending to your pet in your home I will abide by instructions provided, and try my hardest to make your pet feel like it is just another day with nothing out of the norm. I am good at reading dogs so I feel confident there will be no issues arising with anyones pets. I also have a home free of other pets, and children which is a major plus.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life. I currently have a male Shih Tzu (8 yrs old) who I’ve loved and cared for since he was a puppy. In April of 2025, I said one of the hardest goodbyes to my senior yorkie girl who crossed the rainbow bridge at 16/17 years old. I was never sure of her exact age as she was rescued at what the vet approximated to be 6 years old. I am equipped to handle dogs of all ages, young and old. I love my furbaby children and will love on any pup in my care. I work full time from home, so I am able to easily take care of dogs and provide the attention needed - including extra bathroom breaks. I take all my dogs on regular walks. I used to give extra bathroom breaks for my senior dog, and also have fences for any dog that may need their personal space.

“Nicole was really great! She was super nice and her and her husband were welcoming as well. We had a meet and greet before and Copper did very good with the house and adapted well. Copper stayed there for the day and Nicole sent video updates of how well she was doing. She was playing with other dogs and had no issues that she told me of. I knew she was well taken care of and we can’t wait to have Nicole watch our dog moving forward. They are close and convenient to where I live. Thank you!”



“Amazing communication. Got back to my request immediately. Took so many photos and videos of my cutie. Highly recommend!!! At pickup my pup was so tired and slept the rest of the day.”

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own and do my best to become emotionally in tune with each pet I work with to ensure they feel at ease around me as I adapt to their unique quirks, routines, and needs. I am happy to bathe any dogs and take care of any messes that may be made. More than anything, I am very communication oriented and promise to provide prompt updates/photos/check-ins so you always know what we’re up to! I am currently living with my 14lb. dog so if you’re okay with puppy play dates that would be great!

I will stick to their normal routines whether that be long walks and playtime, or lots of rest and cuddles, or any combination of them! I never leave pets unattended for long and make sure they have water, comfy spots to rest, and all of my love and attention. In clients’ homes, similar to mine, I stick to the pet’s routines while also respecting your space. Whether it is daily visits, or short drop-ins, I want to make sure your pet feels safe in their routine and environment. I am very detail-oriented and will take instructions very literally and will follow them carefully. Most importantly, I will provide as many updates, photos, or messages as you want to keep you up to date with what we’re up to and ensure everything is up to your standards.

“It was a last minute booking, but Dolores was so helpful and sent updates of the cats. The environment was perfect! Temari seemed like she had a lot of fun, and Omori felt very safe in his little hiding spot. Highly recommend Dolores!”


About: I have been taking care of my family dogs since I was a kid, but as an adult I have owned 4 different dogs and fostered over 30 other dogs and puppies for local rescues. Working with multiple dog trainers each time I adopt a dog for myself I have picked up some great tips and tricks when it comes to working with dogs of all kinds! I work from my home so aside from quick drop offs for my kids to and from school and occasional sporting events, we are usually home. I have a dog who is accustomed to regular potty breaks and at least 1-2 longer walks a day. My townhouse is 2 stories, but the main living areas where we are during the day is all downstairs. My dog naps while I work and would love a cuddle buddy. We go on frequent potty breaks and walks over to the park for exercise!
