About: With years of hands-on experience caring for hundreds of pets, I bring a level of dedication and knowledge that truly sets me apart. From energetic puppies needing structure and training to senior dogs requiring extra patience, meds, and mobility support—I’ve done it all. I cared for my own beloved pup for 17 wonderful years, so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s hands. Whether it’s administering medication, reinforcing good behavior, or just offering lots of love and attention, your dog’s well-being is always my top priority. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and my flexible schedule means I’m available when you need me—whether that’s early morning walks, midday drop-ins, or overnight stays. I prioritize each pet’s unique needs and can easily adjust my day to fit their routine. Whether your dog thrives on a strict schedule or just needs some extra attention and playtime, I’m here to provide consistent, loving care whenever it’s needed. I welcome your pet into my home as part of the family—because they deserve nothing less! I’m located between two beautiful parks, perfect for daily walks and playtime. My schedule is flexible, and I always tailor care to match your pet’s usual routine, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.
“Ahñia was amazing with our 8 week old puppy. She came over for a meet and greet and stayed way longer than she needed to and asked a lot of questions and was also incredibly kind to our older dog who is unfriendly who barks at people coming in. Our puppy immediately loved her and she is incredibly reliable and caring.”

“Tanner took such great care of my cats! I My cats were very anxious since we just moved into a new place and Tanner was very patient and caring considering that they were very anxious. I will definitely boom Tanner again in the future!”

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have two perfect one eyed cats and I couldn’t be more obsessed with. I love dogs of all sizes and adore cats. I currently work from home, so my day to day is pretty flexible. We can workout whatever schedule you need that your pet is most used to! Whatever your pet needs, I will take care of! It’s as if you were never gone! I’m active, so long walks are not a problem
“Solomiya became Chino’s new best friend. She was very attentive, reporting and checking with us promptly. We are happy to have found her in our neighborhood not only for convenience but also someone we can truly rely on. Will be reaching out to her for future dog boarding or checkins.”

“Lauren was a great communicator and patient with Olive. She kept to the schedule we agreed on and gave good updates. I recommend her to anyone with a cat who needs a little extra TLC!”

“James was great with my cat! I knew Lollipop was in good hands when I had to leave for a week and all of the pictures made me feel so much better about leaving. He was also flexible with my changing schedule which was much appreciated!”

“Jessica was fantastic! Super detailed and precise. Our cat Jackson took to her and told us when we got home we were permitted to be gone an extra three days if Jessica is taking care of him.”

“Ella was a great cat sitter. She was communicative and professional. She sent me plenty of photos of my cats and treated them and my home with respect. Would definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember! My pets have ranged from a 15 pound cockapoo to a 180 pound American Mastiff! I am a very gentle and caring person with a flexible mindset and happy to help where I can! I am a teacher who is on summer break! My schedule is fully open and ready to help at any time. I can be very flexible with my schedule and I am ambitious and ready to work. I have cared for dogs in multiple different home environments. I am comfortable with putting your pet in a crate if desired and spent my whole life walking my dogs as well. I’ve also worked with all ages and dogs and have administered medicine, trained dogs, and of course played with them all day long!

“Lindsay did a truly amazing job with our cat Stanley!! She went above and beyond to make sure he was cared for, playing with him and giving him cuddles every time she visited. She gave incredibly detailed updates about our guy and sent a large amount of pictures every visit. Very responsive to any of our concerns and always showed up on time. Cannot recommend Lindsay more highly!”

“We highly recommend Jada! We have been fortunate enough to have her watch our cat Otis while we went away on extended trips. She is communicative, friendly and punctual—all great things to have in a sitter! We look forward to having Jada watch Otis again.”

About: I have continuously been the friend and family member that is trusted with dog sitting. I have had experience with senior dog care and with babies as well. I am a very well-rounded worker! I am currently a full-time employee but telework parts of the week! I have plenty of time to fully support you and your pets needs! I treat your space, as well as your pets space with respect at all times. I am a trustworthy person who follows directions extremely precisely.
About: I have always grown up with cats and dogs. I have been a pet sitter, babysitter, and house sitter through high school and college. I helped my family train our beautiful black lab when she was a puppy back in 2018. I am also a cat parent to the sweetest girl I adopted two years ago. I am a full time law student, so right now I have the most time for weekend visits with some limited evening availability for drop-in visits. I am about to have a long winter break, so I will have much more time from December 15-January 15. I have a two bedroom apartment with easy access to a small dog park area and easy access to a neighborhood with lots of green space for walks.
About: I have not lived a single day without animals in my house. I grew up with a German Shepherd, 3 Aussies, a cat, and even owned lizards! I also worked at PetsMart in the small animal department and helped medicate the sick animals. Although I am not a pet trainer I have plenty of experience training dogs how to walk properly and teaching them tricks, as well as attending a few sit means sit classes with my Mother’s dog. I am a nurse in the hospital setting and I work 3 days a week, meaning I would only accept jobs on days where I do not work (I would hate for your pet to be unattended for 12+ hours!). As far as pet care experience, I have cared for: large dogs, small dogs, cats, lizards, snakes, rodents, birds, and horses. I also have experience administering various kinds of medication as well as caring for senior animals. Because of this I would be able to provide care to special care or senior dogs that may need extra TLC or certain medications like insulin. I work overnight 3 nights a week, my schedule is pretty flexible but it does vary week by week. I recently moved out of my parents home and am currently pet free so I would love to be able to spend my free time helping out! I treat every pet like they are my own. I would walk the dogs at least 1-2 times a day depending on their own needs. As far as dogs go, I would also take them out for bathroom breaks every 2-4 hours. For cats, I would clean their litterbox as least once daily. For all pets I will provide them with all the love they could need while you are away and will play with them to their hearts content! I am very respectful of others’ spaces and will leave your home the same, if not better than you left it!
“Sylvia was wonderful!! Provided great information and photos. The cats loved her, they don't usually come out for sitters but they adored her and it was clear she made an effort to cultivate a relationship with them. I definitely plan to book with her again.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Riverside
An amazing sitter. I came back and the kitties were happy, fed, and totally taken care of. Kiernan, my usually shy boy, was actually even out and about, which showed that he had gotten used to her as a visitor and felt comfortable with her. Was consistently on time, and I have no complaints. 5/5 stars, would absolutely recommend.

My wife and I have had Sylvia petsit for us a few times now, from a couple days to a week or more. Everytime she is thoughtful, communicative, and addresses our wide array of pets needs with the utmost professionalism. Having 3 cats and a few reptiles with different care routines means we ask a lot but she always steps up to the plate. Sylvia really goes above and beyond and we couldn’t recommend her more!

Sophia was so attentive and sweet to my two cats! This was my first time leaving my cats alone for the weekend but they were in such good hands with Sophia. She made sure they had plenty of food and water and spent extra time petting them so they wouldn’t get lonely - I highly recommend her to any other cat parents out there!

We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter! We have two cats, and one of them requires medication, so finding someone we could completely trust was incredibly important. From the very beginning, Nina was punctual, reliable, and consistently communicated after every visit, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. One of our cats is very shy and usually keeps their distance from anyone new, but somehow she managed to earn their trust and even become friends! Seeing updates and photos of our normally unsocial cat feeling comfortable and interacting with her was amazing and reassured us that they were receiving genuine care and attention. This is, without question, the most comfortable we've ever felt leaving our cats while traveling. Knowing they were in such capable, compassionate hands allowed us to truly enjoy our time away without worrying. We wholeheartedly recommend Nina to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and exceptional pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
