I love to be active so I can take your buddy for nice nature walks, play with them, or even down time with endless head/belly scratches—whatever your friend needs I can give.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animals and my commitment to treating every pet like family. I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors, and I understand that each one has their own personality and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and great at reading animal body language, which helps me build trust quickly. If your pet needs medication, special care, or a consistent training routine, I’ve got it covered. I’m also familiar with basic training techniques and can help reinforce good behaviors while you’re away. Whether it’s energetic playtime, slow walks for older dogs, or cozy cuddle sessions, I adapt to what your pet needs to feel happy and safe. As a housewife, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve throughout the day. I’m usually home, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long hours and can enjoy consistent companionship, playtime, and potty breaks. Because I’m already managing a home, I’m organized, reliable, and used to balancing responsibilities—so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, play, or simply offering comfort and love, I’m always ready to make your pet feel at home and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable.

I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime rituals—to help them feel right at home. I provide plenty of attention, snuggles, and supervision throughout the day.
“Olivia is the most thoughtful and sweet pet sitter you could have. She sent us thorough updates that showed she cares about our cat and was following all our instructions. She even went out of her way to bring in our trash bins and packages. She’s been our go-to and will continue to be.”
About: I have always enjoyed caring for other’s pets. Although I don’t have any of my own I never pass up the chance to care for a family member or friend’s pet. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, big, and small dogs, cats, and even birds! I truly enjoy bonding and creating a comfortable space for whoever’s pet I watch. I am currently working part time and go to school part time so I have the capacity to take care of your pet’s needs. I am available most of the week except Thursday and Saturday after 2pm. I have a fenced yard and no pets so all my focus will be on your fur baby. I am patient and loving and willing to help with any anxiety issues the pet may have.

Whether it's giving extra attention to an elderly dog or engaging in energetic playtime with a playful puppy, I'm equipped to handle it all with care and expertise. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine despite working full-time. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in on pets every two to four hours, depending on the distance. Additionally, I'm available in the evenings to provide companionship, take them on walks, or simply ensure they're well cared for while you're away. Your pet's well-being is my priority, and I'm committed to accommodating their needs within my schedule. When caring for pets, whether in my own home or at a client's residence, I prioritize their well-being and safety. I treat each pet as if they were my own, providing them with love, attention, and any necessary care they require. Additionally, I respect the client's home by adhering to any rules or guidelines they've provided and ensuring that their space remains clean and tidy throughout my stay. My goal is to create a comfortable and nurturing environment for both pets and owners alike, whether they're with me or in the familiar surroundings of their own home.

About: I have grown up with dogs. The past 10+ years I have cared for other peoples dogs. I understand how uneasy people feel about leaving their pooch in a Kennel, simply because their dog is their world and they would rather have their dog have home comforts whilst you are apart. Married but we have no children so am able to offer a calm environment for those dogs that are mature or nervous of bangs and loud noises. Likewise I have the time and energy for those dogs that need a little more play time. I have a neutered schnoodle that is mature enough to chill but also enjoys a play. I work part time from home. So I am able to offer your pooch a lot of time and love, be it walks or just company. I have an enclosed, secure garden, mainly walled with gated access which is locked. It is completely private. It is not a large garden, but it certainly offers a dog enough space to stretch their legs, chase a ball or just chill on the patio.
About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets. I’m responsible, patient, loving, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently completing an externship, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for boarding on weekends and have availability on weekdays after my externship. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for both dogs and cats. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their needs, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care.
About: Being a pet owner my whole life has allowed me to understand dogs very well! I’ve dealt with bigger breeds like German Shepards and Pitt bulls, smaller breeds have always gotten along well with my demeanor. I have majority of the day to walk or take dogs to a park or allow them to explore the deserts. Let me know your dogs preference of activity. I stick to the rules, let me know what your dogs need or if they have anything that is specific for them that needs to get done!
About: I’m a pediatric nurse and a dog owner, so caring for others with patience, responsibility, and attention to detail is a big part of my life. I’ve also had experience pet sitting for family, friends, and others, caring for pets with different personalities, routines, and needs. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pets. I’ll treat your pets like my own, follow their normal routines and care instructions, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and love. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I work a flexible nursing schedule, so my availability varies each week. I keep my calendar updated and am happy to accommodate drop-in visits whenever I’m available. I’ll always make sure your pet gets the time, attention, and care they need! 🐶🐱❤️ Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive to details and will carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, routines, and special needs. For walks, I’ll make sure your pet is securely leashed and supervised throughout our time together. I’ll also make sure doors and gates are secure during drop-in visits and treat your home with care and respect. I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and safe! 🐾❤️
“Our 3-month kitten was very happy to spend time with Melissa. We got regular photo updates during the stay, so I knew what was happening and didn’t have to worry. Will definitely book again!”
“Absolutely perfect! Marlon took incredible care of my cats and home while I was gone. Pictures and updates daily. He truly went above and beyond what I was expecting. I would not hesitate to hire him again and again!!”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 14. I have loved animals since I was born and am able to administer medications and also insulin if needed. My first pet sitting actually involved small farm animals too! I work at Yard house, a restaurant in the Palmdale valley. While I can work late hours I will always make sure your animal’s care comes first and foremost. I currently do not have my own home as I am renting a room. I sadly am not able to offer board and care in my own home at this time.
About: I have more 10+ years walking and babysitting young and senior dogs (5 years on Rover). Since I was 7, I cared for dogs, cats, turtles, goldfish, parakeets, chickens, rabbits, and mice. My mom refused to let me have a snake but that definitely would’ve been on my list. I work full time Mondays to Thursdays, but I always make it important to exercise after work. On weekends I am available for walks and drop-ins. I’d be happy to love and care for your dog, and send you pictures of appreciating your dog throughout the day. If you have to leave for a weekend for a holiday or extended vacation, I have experience staying overnight in a client’s home. For drop-in visits I can feed and play with your pet. I can also water your plants or double-check if your AC is off and appliances are unplugged.

Emily thank you so much for Lunas care. You really take pride in assisting help for Luna and the peace of mind you give me. My Luna is very happy and I can see it. You take initiative and the 3rd time was a charm-she was behind gate when I got home. Great job!
Cheyanne took good care of Shelby, Windsor, and Regina George. She completed the drop-in visits, followed our feeding instructions, and sent photo updates throughout the weekend. After an address mix-up at the start, she still came to the correct house and took care of the dogs. They were well looked after.
