2. Taylor S.
About: I was a pre-vet student in undergrad and have over 500 hours of experience volunteering and assisting at an animal clinic. I am experienced with giving medication including insulin shots which I have personally administered to our family dog for 8 years. I have a medium sized dog of my own who is very sweet and loves other pets. Since she’s a little older now, she may play with your pup or just snuggle next to them depending on their energy level. I like going on runs and walks and I am happy to bring your pup along with me if they are up to it. Your dog will receive lots of love and have fun. They will be able to let some energy out or just relax. I used to pet sit on rover a few years ago and took a break to focus on my career. I have extra time now and would love to care for your baby while you’re away. I usually am home by 3-4pm during the week and can go home at lunch to give a potty relief. On the weekends I am home full time. I typically do short walks in the morning and evenings with a longer walk in the middle of the day. If your dog needs potty breaks more frequently I can accommodate that. I allow dogs to free roam and on all furniture. If you prefer they are kenneled I also have a kennel they can use when I am not home. No one lives below me so they are free to jump around and have fun.

“I’ve known Kassandra for 5 years and been taking care of my dog Kara for about 3 years. She a loving and caring pet giver and treats my dog as if she one of her own. Kassandra’s the only pet sitter I trust with my dog and I’m very confident that she’ll be a well loved pet sitter for rover.”

“Took great care of our little friends”


6. Chloe S.

“Chloe clicked with my dog Ellie instantly, they loved each other during the meet and greet. We left Ellie in good hands for one day with Chloe. She stopped by several times during the day and next day to make sure Ellie was well fed and loved. The pictures she sent made me relieved that Ellie was well taken care of while I was away. I’ll definitely be asking her to care for my dog next time I’m away 💛.”


7. Alexandra D.
“I was very blessed to find Alex about a year ago. She is a true dog lover and takes amazing care of my two dogs. One of my dogs is slightly difficult to handle but I have no worries with Alex. Maxie wags her tail and goes with her no problem. Often, Alex will text over a picture, leave me information on treats that are best for my pups, and cares for each of them the way I would. I never worry about Charlie or Maxie when Alex is around. Thank you so much for giving me "Peace of Mind" while I'm working. Alex is the Best Ever!!”

10. Christina N.


“Christina exceeded my expectations with her care. Upon returning from my trip, my apartment did not smell like cat litter or poop. The cat litter area and food area was super tidy, and my cat looked happy and healthy. Christina was very communicative and detailed throughout her visits, and made me feel at ease while I was on my trip that Aria (my cat) was safe and well fed. Upon meeting Christina she was super professional, prompt, and very attentive to all of the details I gave her about feeding info and care. I would definitely book again and can recommend her to anyone who’s looking for professional care and reliability!”


11. Sahiba G.

“Sahiba was kind enough to accept our last minute request when our other caretaker fell through. She was very communicative and it was incredibly easy to book. I would definitely recommend her for your dog care!”


12. Lisbeth R.

“Our family was looking for a cat sitter while we were away on vacation. It was just the weekend prior to our leaving and I still hadn’t found anyone. Fortunately Lisbeth responded to my request and I’m so happy she did!! She took great care in getting to know them, caring for them and communicating with me. I know they all felt comfortable around her. She provided peace of mind and it’s often hard to find. Thank you Lisbeth! We will see you again in August lol”


13. Kristin M.
“Since I’ve known Kristin she has always been a responsible and caring pet taker. She has helped me care for a few dogs throughout the time she wouldn’t give me a reason not to trust her in the hands of a dog. She’s had the experience for over 14 years with her family dog and I will always see her taking amazing care of him. Responsible, loyal, and trustworthy can’t go wrong with any other pet's hands.”


14. Betty V.
“Betty Velarde is an avid animal lover, she has had a pet since a young child. She lovingly cared for her last dog for over 14 years until its passing. She was very passionate about her dog and always referred to it as her child. When it comes to animals she is awesome.”

16. Debbie G.
“Debbie is AMAZING with my doggies! One of my dogs is very apprehensive towards people and she took the time to just let Oreo sniff her and get acquainted with her. My other dog, Nico, is always happy to have her over again for more belly rubs. Definitely recommend her, she’s amazing!!!”


17. Kimberly M.

“Kimberly was great! She is super reliable and kept me updated on how everything was going with my babies. I would definitely request her services again if she is available!”


18. Cindy C.
About: I do not book clients who do not have photos of their pets posted. Depending on the type pet, each one has a particular routine that they like to follow or different ways of communicating. At first there’s a little bit of a getting to know you period, but I am attentive to the pets’ needs as they communicate by attention. For cats I clean the litter box daily and follow whatever diet instructions that are needed. Healthy cats will let you know. Dogs require a little more attention at times and I enjoy taking them on walks to get some fresh air. Letting me know their habits or quirks ahead of time really help the pets when their owners are away. They appreciate having company. I am currently working full time but remotely. I have time to spend with your cat or dog when you’re away. They are always fun to have around when you’re working from home. Please do not book overnight service if you’re intending doggie day care. I will not accommodate that without an extra fee. Please message for rate details. Depending on the pet, each one has a particular routine that they like to follow or different ways of communicating.
