“Marissa is fantastic. She’s always on time and takes my pup on different walking routes all the time to keep him excited and interested. She lets him take his time sniffing around and people watching. We’ve already referred her to other neighbors and friends. 100% recommend!”

“We love Katie! She agreed to walk our puppy on short notice, and quickly arranged a meet & greet. She is always on time, friendly, reliable, and responsible. Best of all, she has taken the time to get to know our pup and all of his favorite things (playing with sticks, etc.), and has made time for him to play on each walk. So glad to have found Katie, and highly recommend her to other nola dog owners!”

“Patrick blew my expectations out of the water. He was absolutely fantastic. On time, courteous and friendly. I hope he is willing and available if we need cover in the future. Amazing!”

About: I am attending school at UCSC for legal studies and have a robust knowledge of dog parks, dog-friendly beaches and trails from Santa Cruz to the City! If you’d like to socialise your dog, you’re in luck because I have a 10-month-old baby 🐾 of my own. We have tons of doggo friends for your pooch to meet if you choose, and no matter what, your dog is getting top-tier handling and care when you trust working with me! If there are behaviours you’d like to work on or would like me to be aware of, please do not hesitate to reach out, and we can discuss them further. I am available for full time pet care, I am also available for part time + available to board if needed. There has not been an hour where I have not been in the company of 1 or more dogs since 2015. I have a fenced yard for the dogs to go potty and run uninhibited. I have a small scale toy and treat business which means the dogs will have plenty to keep them occupied and if he/she would like to go home with their favourites, we can arrange for that too. I am capable of pickup and drop off as well as supervised visits to the park, creeks, the beach, trails, etc.
About: I love dogs, have had my own but school and work are too demanding for full time care. In the time I have your dog rest assured they will be treated as if they were my own. I look forward to my time with them . I am available most weekdays and weekends, especially morning or day time. I think my love for dogs is my greatest skill, every time I see one I can’t help but go and give it some love. I’m up for anything from walks and play time to down town together just bonding. Beach time is one of my favorite things to do and I would love the company of your dog by my side, everything is more fun with a dog .
“Alisha, your dedication and love for every dog you walk is truly inspiring. Thank you for taking such great care of Bibi, makes you a cherished part of their lives. Thank you for the outstanding service you provide!”


About: I am a long term animal lover and trainer. 20 years experience with larger dog breeds. I have a flexible schedule and excellent references. Many years experience with Cats too. Will provide care and feeding, exercise and play, grooming and clean up. Can handle multiple pets. rates flexible depending on type of pets, number of pets and if overnight. I have local references upon request. I am currently working part time, so I have lots of flexible time available to spend giving your dogs, cats and farm animals the very best of care! I provide a complete variety of pet services in your home. I am overly cautious about safety in and out of the home. I take extra precautions when walking your dog near other dogs and with allowing pets outdoors where wild predators can be nearby. I am very aware of other dogs and will not allow to approach unless previously known. My availability changes. Sometimes I work remotely from home doing business office support for clients. This affects the type of pet care assignments that I may accept due to logistics and pet needs. I care for pets in your home only and take dogs on outings and employ daily frequent play and walks. Your pets get lots of attention!
“Jonathan is wonderful with my energetic labradoodle! He helps with good walking etiquette , is communicative with me about how the walks go, and always takes the best photos of my pup. He’s dependable and flexible with schedules, which I really appreciate.”

About: I have taken care and have 2 dogs/ 1 cat of my own that I actively care for. Also I have taken care of my family friends farm with all kinds of animals for days on end including walking, feeding, letting them out and in, etc. I also just love animals and love taking care of them! I work part time but normally only 4 hour shifts so i’m very flexible and can visit your animals multiple times throughout the day as well as working. I also only work around 3 days a week so i’m very available for the most part! In my home my dad has a service dog who is very well trained and also has a crate your pup could go in. We also have 2 older dogs with a fenced in outdoor area for them and a doggy door that gives them free access if going inside and out.
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I bring professional, reliable, and compassionate care to your pets. From administering medications and subcutaneous fluids to handling strong dogs on walks, I make sure your companions are safe, comfortable, and loved. At home, I care for two special-needs rescue cats, Angel and Squirrel, both three-legged “tripawds,” who keep me grounded in love every day. Animals have been my companions and teachers since childhood, and I love bringing that attentiveness into every sit. When I care for your pets, you can expect daily updates, consistent communication, and the peace of mind that they’re in loving, capable hands. I set my own schedule so I can fit in dog walks and drop-ins. Plan the day and service in hour-long slots and certain breaks. I live in a home with two cats, and a yard, shared with two friendly dogs, another cat and chickens, so boarding of a dog who is cat friendly, and friendly with other dogs and animals is possible.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I’ve grown up with pets, including bunnies, and I’ve had my Maltese, Marlin, since I was 10 years old. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and always treat them like family with plenty of love, attention, and care. I have a part-time job, which gives me plenty of free time to help care for your pets and give them the attention they deserve. I’m always available on weekends and love being able to spend quality time with animals 🐾 I’ll make sure your furry ones are always fed, have fresh water, and are well cared for. I’m very attentive and always clean up after them as needed. I treat every dog the same way I treat my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
About: 10 years of veterinary and hands-on animal care experience and truly enjoy working with all types of dogs. I live with a Great Pyrenees and an Australian Shepherd, so I’m very comfortable with large breeds and strong pullers. Over the years, I’ve also cared for cats, chickens, goats, lizards, snakes, hamsters, and many other animals, so I’m comfortable with a wide variety of species and personalities. I prioritize safe, calm, and positive walks, tailoring exercise to each dog’s age, energy, and personality. I can administer medications, including injections like insulin, and I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and special care instructions. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve always been the one who disappears at parties or events to hang out with the animals, that passion for being around and caring for pets has never left me. I have three young kids and recently transitioned out of a full-time job to focus on pet care, giving me flexible and reliable daytime availability. I’m available most days and times of the week. I’ve recently transitioned out of a full-time job to focus on pet care, which allows me to provide flexible, reliable visits tailored to each pet’s needs. I provide care in your home to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions carefully, maintain a safe and clean space, and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior, routine, and any special needs.
“Lillian was wonderful! Papi is full of energy, and Lillian didn't look askance at any of his antics. He came back from his walk very tired (which I loved). Papi also couldn't bear to watch Lillian leave, lol; he had fallen in love! I think she's terrific and will definitely use her again soon.”


About: For walks: I'm very experienced at dog waking. I can handle big and small dogs. I can move at any pace on walks including running. I like to let the dog set the pace. I will typically ask owners what commands they use with their dogs so I can help keep them trained and have them heel on walks. I always avoid other dogs just in case. And on hot days I plan my walks in advance and leave water out for the dog on the route before I start the walk. For drop ins and sitting: I will comfort your dog while you are away as well as feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. I can also give medications orally, but I can't inject any medications. I'm currently a student and since all my classes are online, I will have plenty of time for your pets. I'm free every day, but Thursday and I'm not free Saturday after 6pm I will comfort your dog while you are away as well as feeding them, walking them, and playing with them. I can also give medications orally, but I can't inject any medications. I'm great about making sure the house is completely locked up and the key put back in it's place when I'm done.
About: I have specific skills in fostering kittens, working with senior dogs and caring for them overnight, walking energetic and crazy dogs, and training with puppies. I can squeeze pet care into my schedule whenever. I am pretty flexible in schedule and am willing to work with you for whatever you need. In my home, I do not have pets because I live in a studio. At other people's homes I like to have a detailed written list of where everything can be found and what certain routines and schedules look like.
About: (P.s message me for cheaper prices than shown on my profile…) I’ve grown up caring for animals of all kinds — dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and small pets. I’m confident with puppies, seniors, and high-energy pets who need extra attention. I’m very communication-focused and always send pictures, videos, and updates so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I work short shifts, so I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and many full days. I also offer same-day bookings and last-minute help when needed. Just message me — I respond quickly! Safety is always my #1 priority. I follow your pet’s normal routine, double-check doors, gates, and leashes, and make sure your pet is never unattended in unsafe situations. I send frequent updates so you always know your pet is safe, relaxed, and cared for. I want every owner to feel completely at ease while their pet is with me.
About: I am a 24 year old, Clinical Psychology Masters graduate from San José State University, working to pay off my student loans. I have worked as a nanny for several years and have grown up with at least one pet at all times, and intend to keep it that way. I have had experience caring for all shapes and sizes of animals, and treat each one as unique as they are! I am very patient and empathetic with both humans and animals. I love to see everyone having fun whilst making sure they are not getting into trouble. I absolutely LOVE all animals and am a great little cat mom myself :) I am a part time Associate MFT and part time waitress. I am paying my way through student loans and so happy to spend as much time with pets during my time slots and days off. Although I am UNABLE TO STAY OVERNIGHT, I’m very communicative and flexible. I understand how it feels to be away from our fur babies, so I love to spend as much time with yours as possible while you’re away. Willing to help in any way I can! I make always put the animals first, making sure they have everything they need to be happy. I will communicate with you about what you do and do not allow regularly. I can be stern or lenient. I will follow your boundaries while spoiling your pet to ensure they have as much fun as possible until you return!
Monte Toyon dog parents share their Rover experiences
I have a strong German Shepherd (Rosie) and, although trained, I would worry about an inexperienced person taking the reigns. I had never considered a sitter before but an injury meant I needed help walking her for a couple of weeks. Any worries were soon allayed. Shawna took such good care of Rosie, that she now beats her tail with absolute delight when she spots Shawna. I found Shawna to be a very capable person who is control, made it fun, and kept my dog safe.

Nieves is so good with dogs! My pup was immediately at ease with her, rolling over for her to scratch his belly. He went with her easily, and he does not do that. She is responsible, timely and communicative. I highly recommend Nieves for taking care of your dog/s.
