Pet Sitting in Paradise Park

“Skylar was great with my cats. She took care of my boys food, water and litter boxes. She then gave them some quality time which I really appreciated. Highly recommend Skylar to watch your fur babies.”

“Lupita is amazing! My cat, as evidenced by videos, is clearly a fan and Lupita is very communicative, reliable, and came home to a happy cat and clean litterbox/bathroom (ie no litter scattered far and wide).”

“Dylan was awesome and did an amazing job with Max. He kept me well updated throughout the drop ins and went above and beyond dealing with a bit of a stubborn pup and some unexpected mess. It was my first time having someone petsit that wasn't a family member, so I was uncertain how it would go, but it went great and I would definitely book Dylan again!”

Bryant R.

“Went above and beyond! Thank you for visiting Harold”

“Jennifer was amazing with our cat Maca! From the start, she was super sweet and easy to communicate with. She went above and beyond every day — sending us updates, photos, and making sure Maca was happy and taken care of. It was such a relief knowing our kitty was in good hands while we were away. Maca is a shy cat with new people and we really appreciated Jennifer’s patience in making her feel comfortable and gaining her trust while we were gone. We would 100% book again with Jennifer and highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for around nine years, I have experience with walking, feeding, keeping an eye on, and generally caring for pets. I have experience working with small puppies and large dogs. At the moment, I work part time in town and will have plenty availability to care for your pets. Usually I work about one day on the weekend so I will be available at all other times. At my home, I have experience handling my two standard poodles in a small enclosed backyard, I would be comfortable taking care of your dog in an enclosed environment or while on a leash.

About: Hello! I've always had pets as a kid, dogs and cats, and have had our family dog for 10 years. His name is Toby and he is a weenie terrier mix! I have had such great experiences with Rover and decided I would like to play with the doggies too! For dog walking I can also bring my dog if you would like to have your dog socialize on their walk. I can also take them to local dog parks if that's preferred over a walk around the neighborhood. Your choice! I use a seatbelt for the dog in the car and a cover for the seat so no worries there. We always have fun going to the dog parks and meeting all the dogs and their people! I work at a school so I have times when I have completely open availability and times I am not available as much. Summer and winter are pretty open availability. I don't bring my pupper to others homes. I give your doggo 100% of my attention and companionship. I absolutely loath when I have to leave my dog alone, so I'm so grateful for people who do this service too! I also use Rover for my busier times of work and when boarding.

“Sue is a great dog watcher and gave our dogs the love we would give them. She is very easy to work with and very kind and we look forward to having her watch our babies again.”

About: I grew up in a big home with 12 dogs, so caring for pets comes naturally. Your dog is in loving, experienced, and reliable hands, always! I currently have a part-time summer job during half the day, but I’m fully available in the evenings and nights. I also have two days off weekly, giving me plenty of time and flexibility to give your pet the love and attention they need I treat every pet like they’re my own; no seriously, think belly rubs, baby voice, and full VIP treatment. Your pup’s safety, routine, and happiness? Locked in.

About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’ve lived my entire life. I grew up with a golden retriever named Arwen, and from 8th grade on, I was fully responsible for her walks, training, and care. I even started waking up an hour earlier every day just to make sure she got her morning walk in before school! Later, when I moved to the U.S. for college, I helped raise and train my roommate’s husky puppy, Ava, who struggled with separation anxiety. I’d take her to class, skate with her to tire her out, and help her stay calm and confident. It was like co-parenting a very energetic fur baby—and I loved every minute. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities—from hyper puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. My husband and I pet sat for two elderly Bichon Frises (17 years old!) every year while their owners traveled, carefully managing their diet, medications, and gentle exercise. I’ve also grown to love cats after living with Archie—my first real cat roommate—and have experience gently brushing, bonding, and caring for both indoor and stray cats (I even accidentally helped my mom adopt a kitten when I took in a stray!). Most recently, I taught my in-laws’ senior dog Ellie new tricks at the age of 7, proving that even older pups can learn with patience and love. We can’t have pets in our home right now due to landlord restrictions, so pet sitting is how I stay connected to what I love most—animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I genuinely enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I am a bioengineering Ph.D. Student, most of the time I have freedom of picking my hours, as well as working from home when needed! I always start by learning as much as I can about your pet’s routine, preferences, health needs, and quirks. Whether it’s medication schedules, feeding routines, or special toys they love—I’m here to follow your instructions to a T. I do my best to keep your pet’s day feeling as normal as possible while you’re away. I’m extremely respectful of your home and always aim to leave it just as you left it (or better!). I double-check doors and windows, never leave pets unsupervised outside, and keep a tidy, pet-safe environment throughout the stay. I also send regular updates—photos, videos, and check-ins—so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for. If you ever need in-my-home care in the future (pending landlord approval!), my goal would be to provide a cozy, stress-free space that’s clean, safe, and set up to meet your pet’s unique needs.

“A pleasure to work with, went above and beyond for my pets.”

About: Hey! Glad to see you here! My name is Morgan, and while I’m new to Rover, I’m not new to animal care. You can see my past experience on the IG account I’m currently building @morgansnugglesyourdog 🐾 If you want someone who aims to understand your pets, respects their routines, is intentional, and takes a thoughtful, behavior-focused approach to care — welcome! I’m a calm, capable sitter who tailors care to your pet’s unique needs, energy level, and emotional comfort. Whether your dog is a mellow senior, a wild child in training, or just your average well-behaved snugglebug, I offer structure, enrichment, affection, and the kind of consistency pets thrive on. I believe all animals deserve to be heard and deserve intentional care and structure. ❌ Things I don’t do: • Dog parks • Chaotic group situations • Handing out treats “just because” • Pushing past an animal’s comfort zone • Ignoring or minimizing behavioral needs ✅ Things I do: • Personalized, temperament-based care • Adventures (if your pet is up for it!) • Daily enrichment and mental stimulation • Intentional structure and calm routines • Respecting your pet’s boundaries and setting healthy ones • All the snuggles (when invited!) I also have hands-on experience with cats, small animals (like guinea pigs and rats), reptiles, and even farm animals like pigs and ducks. If it has paws, claws, hooves, or scales — chances are, I’ve cared for it. When it’s a good fit, I love incorporating dogs into my daily life — whether that’s a nature walk, a car ride to town, or just relaxing outside. But I never take dogs to dog parks or chaotic spaces. If something feels too stimulating or simply isn’t right for your pet, we skip it — no pressure, no push. And if your pup is the stay-home-and-cuddle type? That works for me too. I always ask about behavior, routines, and preferences ahead of time and spend the first day or two getting a read on what your pet is capable of and comfortable with. My goal is to help every animal feel safe, respected, and genuinely cared for in a way that honors who they are. I work from home full time! I have several clients but the type of work allows me to be extremely flexible for your pets! I know while some pets can just hang out while I work, others may need more care, enrichment or a closer eye - I can and will accommodate accordingly. Just let me know what your pet needs ❤️ When sitting at your home I prefer to stick to the spaces your pets are most comfortable in or used to as well as stick to a similar routine. I find this helps with separation anxiety and any confusion the pets may have since their favorite human is gone! If possible, I like to take dogs for a longer walk on the first day to help us bond and help me learn how they behave. For other pets, this may look more like a longer playtime, enrichment activity, etc. I want to make sure they’re as comfortable as possible with me in their space so that first day is important to me!

About: I'm well-versed in litterboxes, cleaning up messes and throw up, interacting with hyper active animals until they wear themselves out, and gaining the trust of skittish animals. I work with kids, I find pets are much easier. I'm a full time student at UCSC and a runner which is perfect because I can study while petting a cat or take your hyperactive dog for a fun run. I'm also a lifeguard during the summers so I'm well versed with the beach and the sea and for the dogs who like to swim or paddleboard, I can show them an amazing day. I make sure the home is as clean if not cleaner than when I got there. I make sure to gain a pets trust before anything else, prioritizing eye contact and belly rubs. I'm very adaptable and can work with older and young, hyper animals.

“Jenni was just wonderful and did a great job taking care of our kitties for 5 days. She made 2 very nervous cat parents feel ok about taking a trip knowing that they were in good hands 🙌🏻 😊”

About: I have never not had a pet in my life. I’ve always had dogs or cats in my home. Currently we have one female dog who is 14, one female rabbit and two parakeets. I work three days a week right next door to my home as a nanny. I live a very flexible and homebased lifestyle as a mom. We have a front yard and side yard and a fenced in backyard. We allow our pets on our furniture and our dog sleeps with us. She is great with other dogs and she is older.
