About: Although I am new to Rover, I am not new to pet care. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and always treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet loves playtime, needs a little extra attention, or just wants a calm companion, I adjust to their needs and routines. I’m also great at keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages for peace of mind while you're away. I work full time Friday through Tuesday from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, and I’m also a college student taking two online classes. This means I have a flexible schedule on weekday evenings after 5 PM and all day Wednesdays and Thursdays. While I can’t adjust my work schedule, I’m reliable and committed to caring for pets during my available hours. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feedings, or companionship, I’ll make sure your pet gets the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. When caring for pets in their own home, I stick closely to your instructions and routines to minimize stress and keep things familiar. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye during walks or playtime, and give plenty of gentle attention. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands while you're away.

“Punctual and great communication! Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—from raising animals for FFA to training my own dogs and working at an animal shelter. Animals have always been a big part of my world, and I treat every pet like family! I work Monday - Friday 7:30am to 4:30 pm I have an hour lunch and would love to take days off to help care for your furry baby’s. I plan to get more availability for the future. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I always follow instructions closely, use secure leashes and gates, and keep a calm, watchful eye on every animal in my care. With years of hands-on experience—from shelter work to farm life—I know how to handle pets gently, responsibly, and with lots of love.

About: Grew up on a ranch or around animals, giving you lifelong experience with all types of animals, not just dogs. Experience with both small and large breeds, including high-energy or working dogs. I currently work part-time with the City of San Luis Obispo Parks and Recreation Department, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets. My role with Parks and Rec has taught me responsibility, attentiveness, and the importance of creating safe, engaging environments—all of which carry over into how I care for the dogs I sit. Whether your pup needs active playtime or calm companionship, I’m available and excited to provide loving, dependable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would my own. I stick to your pet’s usual schedule and routine to reduce stress and make them feel at home!

About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia

“First time using Rover and Kaylee was awesome! Punctual, courteous and most importantly loving towards our Lyla. We will definitely be booking Kaylee again!”

About: I'm from the country and have grown up around animals of all sorts especially dogs and cats and all of my life I've been the guy that finds the animals in need of love and attention and care and make sure they get it. Currently live with three cats. Two boys one girl. Have taken care of several litters of puppies and am comfortable administering medication and bottle feeding and other deeper forms of care needed, always love learning something new. I would like to make it basically a part time job that gives me some extra savings. Freshly open schedule at the moment, doing a nice start over! Im always on the watch for the cats food and water being filled and clean and the area around their bowls is clean. I love to play with them with the laser and there little mouse toys and let the young one play attack my hand and let them cuddle up to me and pet them while they naps. Also doing damage control during squirly hours😂I also take care of the litter box daily and let them get some sun time in when they meow at the door

“Alex is lovely - she pitched in to help out when our regular walker went out of town and Baxter fell in love immediately. Totally trustworthy, on time and so sweet with my little guy. Will absolutely book her again!”

About: I’m a mom to a toddler and a devoted dog mom who truly treats her pup like family. My love for dogs even inspired me to start a dog cake and treat business (treatsbynav on ig) so I could celebrate my own dog every year and help other dog parents do the same. I’m patient, attentive, and outdoorsy — we do frequent walks and trails so pups get exercise, enrichment, and lots of love. I care for every dog as if they were my own. I have a very flexible and open schedule that allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I’m available for drop-in visits and enrichment outings (field trips) and can easily accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I provide calm, attentive care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in their familiar environment and routine. I do not offer overnight house stays, but I specialize in drop-in visits and field trips so pets still receive quality time, companionship, and activity during the day.

“Dayna was fantastic! I contacted her fairly last minute to see if she could walk my dog and she responded quickly and was incredibly helpful! My senior pup seemed to really like her as well.”

I am happy to accommodate whatever special requests you have as long as I am able to do them.

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, I treat every pet like family. What sets me apart is my deep understanding of each animal’s unique needs — from high-energy puppies to sweet senior companions. I'm trained in basic obedience for young dogs, experienced with medication administration, and attentive to special diets or mobility concerns. I believe communication is key, so you’ll always get photo updates and honest check-ins. Whether it’s a leisurely walk, playtime, or just comforting company, I’m here to provide consistent, loving care that keeps tails wagging and hearts happy. I'm recently retired, which means I have extra time on my hands—and I can't think of a better way to spend it than caring for your pets. My days are wide open for long beach walks, fun car rides, and even the occasional pup cup stop (a fan favorite!). Whether your pet needs mid-day playtime, a quiet companion, or a full day of adventures, I’ve got the flexibility to make it happen. My schedule is open and stress-free—just like your pet’s time with me will be! Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment with plenty of affection, routine, and supervision—no crowded spaces or overwhelming noise. I keep a close eye on each pet’s behavior and body language to ensure they feel relaxed and understood. In my home, pets have access to clean, pet-friendly spaces, cozy rest spots, and a fenced outdoor area (or safe leash walks, if preferred). When caring for pets in your home, I respect your routines and follow your care instructions to the letter—because no one knows your pet better than you do.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was little, I’ve always been a huge animal person. I’ve volunteered at an animal shelter before and loved it. I was always interested in becoming a vet but I would probably end up taking all the pups with no homes back home with me. I’ve had family members ask me to watch their pets while their away, I love being of service and love taking care of animals in any way I can. I would love to get to know your pets and have them excited every time I take them for a walk! I have plenty of time in the afternoon or evenings to take your dog on a nice long walk to the park, beach, or wherever you prefer! I love playing fetch with my dog, running with him or walking. My dog absolutely loves the beach so I love taking dogs to the beach. I love dog snuggles, I just love getting to know every dog I meet and learning about their unique personalities!
