“Tiffany has been absolutely wonderful!! We have two german shepherds that aren’t very socialized and her calming presence put them at ease. We had to extend our trip an additional day and she was willing to swing by the house two more times to visit with them. We will be contacting Tiffany for all future dog sitting services!”


“Tatiana is great! I left for an extended period and had an ant breakout. She went above and beyond to try taming the situation. Cat was in good shape and house looked great. Highly recommend and will use her services again in the future!”


About: I have taken care of several dogs over the years. Food and water as well as walking, playing and petting to let them know they are loved and secure. I am currently retired but active in my community. Caring for your four legged furry wonders easily fits into my daily or weekly schedule as needed. Feed and water as per instructions. Playing, petting absolutely included if pets are amenable. Checking to make sure there are no problems and they get the attention they need while you are away.

About: My husband David and I are dog lovers with many rescue dogs over time. Our current Pom and CCCS get along great with other dogs. We also rescued a indoor/outdoor cat now who is friendly. We stopped sitting for 5 years but loved meeting and helping new dogs and their owners that we decided to start again because of our love for dogs! We have 1 acre of secured fenced in land and a doggie door leading to dog run area waiting to share with another dog(s). My husband is retired and home pretty much all day. He takes the day service and me, the night service and feedings. We have personally dog (and cat) sat for many family and friends pets when we lived in Bay Area and now living in this area, we know first hand how hard it is to worry about our "fur babies" when we have to leave them whether it be for vacation or a short trip. Feel comfortable to leave them in our hands and if needed for additional charge I can have them washed for you when you return since I also used to be a dog groomer! My husband currently is retired and home. He would take the day routines and I will take the afternoon/evening routines. Walk daily with our dogs on leash and sleep in our room at night. We have a complete fenced in back yard with over 1 acre for roaming around. We do have chickens who free range but if dog isn't used to them, we can keep them in chicken coop area. We treat our dogs like our babies and would treat yours the same

About: Have had a wide variety of animals my whole life! From goats, cats, dogs to even a snake once- you name it. I love them all. I have an Anatolian shepherd & a Siamese cat that are my best friends. I will treat your pets with the same love and respect as I do my own! My availability is usually I’m completely free for walks, drop ins & house sitting Monday-Wednesday and then Thursday-Sunday I work 8:30-4:30 but am able to after. If you have any questions, feel free to message me! :) I am currently very available and will have a flexible schedule going forward. Looking to help out as much as possible with your fur babies! I care for animals like how I do my own. Extra love and attention with respect & confidence. I love learning different animals personalities & will go off of that and their routine set by the owners!

“Justine was absolutely fantastic! I am so happy I booked her to help with my kitties while I was out of town. She was reliable, communicative and so sweet with my babies. I would highly recommend.”


About: I have dog sat for two years, besides watching my own dogs while growing up. I have experience with puppy sitting including special meals and potty training. I have watched older dogs and gone on many fun walks. I am an out of state college student who misses my pets back home! I am looking for a fun part time job while getting my dog and cat fix. I can easily crate and fence in dog if needed. I will follow the owners' instructions. I will leash the dog if specified or I feel the need to.

About: I love big dogs... I had a beautiful English Lab when my children were very young. Two of my daughters have and had the dogs you see in the pictures. I loved helping with them ❤️ so much and....miss them... I would love to give time and love to any big and awesome dogs 🐕 that are close by! And sibling Dogs! And, Cats... I have free time currently! I would be happy to talk and meet to help with your awesome family member(s) Safety and excercise are a priority. Taking the little dog I currently live with out 3 times a day. Giving positive attention. Making sure she has food and water and a few healthy treats.

“Sara was fantastic! She came over before our scheduled day to meet our dogs and familiarize herself with our dogs schedule and details for their routine. We have never hired a dog service before and we’re apprehensive at first. The day of service she kept us informed and even sent pictures of our fur babies to let us know how they’re doing. We felt comfortable knowing Sara was tending to them. We definitely recommend hiring her services and will be using Rover and requesting Sara for future dog sitting services. :)”

“Grace was wonderful! I have never left my pets with a stranger before, but she made me feel so comfortable. Grace was quick to respond and checked in regularly. It seems like the cats really warmed to her. I will absolutely book Grace again in the future.”


“Kylee is awesome! This was the first time we’ve hired a pet-sitter, and we will definitely book again :D Kylee was very patient with our super shy kitty, Siena. She stopped by once/day to feed and spend time with Siena. When we got home, Siena was happy as could be as if we’d never left <3”


About: We love all animals! We have two female miniature dachshunds, Daisy Mae and Poppy who are both very playful and friendly.. My husband and I have always felt a very strong connection with all animals. We couldn't imagine our life without them. They bring such unconditional love and companionship every day! We enjoy walking them every day and just hanging outside with them. Your fur babies will be given lots of affection and exercise and will go home happy. :) We are both home all day to watch over your pup.. We have a fenced garden area where the dogs love to run around in or they can just hang out and be mellow on our back deck. We also have a year round creek that runs through the back of our house where the dogs love playing in the water. Lots of chew toys, balls, treats and beds are included too! Your pup will sleep inside with us either on a bed, the floor, or if they are kennel trained, we can provide those as well. We provide daily texts, videos, and photos so you can have comfort knowing that your pup is safe and happy 😊 We look forward to meeting you! My husband and I work as a team and are both recently retired. We are home all day with the dogs and make sure they are happy and safe. :) We also are available for dog walking, drop in visits, and staying in your home to care for your pups during your absence. We take them all for daily walks, playtime, or just relaxing in a peaceful environment. We have two very friendly dogs they can play with or just hang out together. We feed them all two times per day unless otherwise needed. We want your fur babies to feel comfortable while you are away so we are compassionate to their needs. They all sleep indoors at night. We send daily pictures and updates on how they are doing throughout the day. Lots of love and kisses in this house!


About: I offer boarding for your dog in a home setting. Dogs stay in my home with me. I live on 10 acres in Somerset with fenced areas for the dogs. Those that get along well with other dogs are matched with appropriate playmates. Dogs that do not get along with other get their own yard and play times. Each stay is customized to your dog and how you live with them. If you don't let your dog on the couch for example, no problem, I keep that rule while they stay with me. Love that your dog snuggles with you as you watch TV in couch? Great! The dogs that are allowed to do that at home will also be allowed to do that here. I have been training dogs since 2000. My experience includes everything from running the behavior department of a humane society for several years, working as a critical care after-hours vet tech, rehabbing hundreds of aggressive dogs, competing in several dog sports, and teaching at a school for dog trainers. I started boarding dogs for my training clients after years of seeing disasters that happened at traditional kennels. This was especially true for older dogs and dogs, puppies, and dogs that were at a kennel for longer than a week. After many many requests I am now opening up boarding spots to the public. I only take a couple dogs at a time so make sure you get your request in ahead of time. To keep the environment stable and for your convenience I pick up all dogs from their home and drop them off when you return. This eliminates any stress when dogs come and go. It also makes the facility safe from disease spread via people's shoes. Bathing is also available before your dog goes home. Check out the pictures of my dogs mixed in with boarding dogs and some that prefer alone time. I am a dog trainer and I my husband is my assistant. One of both of us is home most of the day and caring for dogs is our life. Being a trainer that has taught for dog training schools, worked as a live in vet tech, and ran animal shelters I am very experienced and equipped to care for your pets. With 23 years of experience in all things dog there are not many more qualified sitters out there.

“Marisa was amazing with my two dogs. I had an overnight work trip and had Marisa do drop in visits to check in, feed, and walk my dogs. Marisa would keep me updated with each visit, sending photos, and let me know how the dogs were doing. Marisa is very professional and knew my pets were in good hands. I highly recommend Marisa and will be booking with her again.”

Michelle R.
“Michelle has been "mother" to her own three dogs, as well as to the others who have passed on to the great doggie park in Heaven due to old age and illness. She has rescued some dogs and nurtured others as puppies. She believes in being a loving and caring pet owner and that shows in her happy companions. Most importantly, Michelle is a responsible dog owner and would make a wonderful caregiver.”

Isabel B.
“The first thing Isa does when she gets home is greet the dog and cats, human housemates second! She has always been passionate about animals. Her life has been full of furry friends but she also has experience with reptiles and amphibians.

She is reliable and a clear communicator who you’ll feel confident trusting with your family pet.”

Knowing how important our pets are to us I can whole heartedly say that my sister will take the utmost care in making sure your babies are happy and safe while you are away.
