“Jorrit, his family, and sweet dog JJ were wonderful caregivers for our dog, Gio for the day. A friendly, calm, and hospital environment provided a great retreat for Gio when I needed to be away. Thank you for being patient and loving towards him. I hope to be back.”

About: I grew up with dogs, love taking care of them and love to walk for hours! I am offering this service until I get a dog of my own :) I work from home with flexibility in my schedule. I love to get out for breaks during the day and live close to a dog park. I have a gated outdoor space and live in a dog friendly neighborhood. I also cover up my furniture so that the dogs can go on the couch.
“Ryan was very flexible and great with Zoey. Zoey went on many outings and was well cared for. I appreciated the pictures and updates. Zoey had a blast and was sad to leave. Ryan is very friendly and easy to work with.”

“Lindsey was great as she updated me with messages and photos of my dog. Took him on a nice dog with her dog and it was very reassuring knowing how he was doing with update photos!”

“Honey looked after our poodle Henni for the afternoon through evening and took great care of her. She was very professional, taking time to really learn about Henni and her habits, schedule, and temperament before we left. We really appreciate her help!”

“Jacob and his wife are wonderful to work with. They cared for our Bella, and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. This is our 2nd time working together and we highly recommend them!”

“Very kind and gentle with our fur baby! They were also flexible on the drop off and pick up time. They live right by the beach and whale watching tour pier. We will hire them again when we come back to Santa Barbara!”

“Miguel did a wonderful job taking care of our shy and anxious dog. He was very attentive to his needs and kept us updated throughout the day. Our pup Benji definitely warmed up to him and enjoyed his stay!”


“Tracy is wonderful! My dog, Murphy, is always so excited when he sees that we are at her place. He clearly feels very comfortable with Tracy. I'm so happy to have found someone my dog adores so much.”

“Matilda was AWESOME from start to finish!! She met me at my hotel for the meet and greet the day before the actual boarding day. Instantly, my half chihuahua/dachshund, who normally does not like strangers, fell in love with her. She was responsive and very caring with my 2 dogs. She was even patient with me!! We all love Matilda and I definitely recommend her for all the potential pet parents out there. Never thought that leaving my boys to someone I have never met would be this stress-free. Thank you so much Matilda!”

“I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy. When we picked him up, he was clearly well-cared for and in great spirits. Sandy truly saved the day. Thank you!”

“Sophia was great with our 4 month old puppy. Sophia took great care of her, sent us updates and photos throughout the day, and was very easy to communicate with. We would definitely work with Sophia again in the future.”
“Lauren was so great to work with...she responded to the daycare request promptly and immediately jumped into asking lots of questions around Remys care. I knew he'd be in good hands. Thank you for the care Lauren...”

About: I grew up with pets and now that I have a little one of my own, I feel it’s a great opportunity for my daughter to grow up with them as well. My sister has a ranch with 6 dogs, horses, pigs.... the whole farm. I help quit often. I’m pretty flexible. I’m currently a stay at home mom. I only have to pick up my my international students at 3pm Mon-Fri. Other then that we are out on runs or at the park, or enjoying our huge yard. I live on a half acre with a huge fenced backyard. I also live very close to the beach and bike path. I go for runs often. Your dog will be with me and my 3 year most of the day. My fiancé works a lot! I’m also a host mom to two international kids that go to Bishop High School. We would love to get a dog of our own. I think this is great way to get our feet wet

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets over the course of my entire life. Dogs are my love and bring such joy into my world. I have always had a natural born connection that cannot really be explained. It’s a magnetism and I’m drawn to them as much as they are to me :). I have a deep understanding and knowledge of a variety of health issues that dogs commonly have including bone, joint, heart, GI issues and dietary restrictions. I’ve experienced quite a bit over the course of my life personally caring for dogs with these issues including blindness & deafness, injuries. I’m mature enough and a mom myself to confidently say that your family would be treated as my own would. I have also cared for and owned a variety of birds, fish, reptiles, bunnies, guinea pigs, chinchilla and then some! ;). Your animals would be loved as my own! Happy to do overnight care on somewhat short notice as well. Live in the Mission canyon area and have a gated yard with space for sun bathing and potty breaks/lizard chasing ;). Reliable car, DL, Insurance etc. - open to running errands, helping around the house (can discuss rate). My schedule is flexible and I’m available for boarding as well overnight with a little notice ahead of time. No problem with house sitting I have a gated yard and no pets. Nice neighborhood with friendly neighbors with dogs that enjoy each other. Local trails close by and the Riviera Theater close and other nice doggy friendly locations!
“Monica was great! She was available and responsive on super short notice and was very flexible when we needed to push our drop off time back. And most importantly of all, she took great care of our pups and made sure to send us several photo-filled updates over the course of the afternoon. Definitely would book with Monica again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Riviera
Our dachshund, Tank, loved his time with Jorrit and his family. Every time we dropped him off he was excited to see them again. They were also so accommodating and flexible with days and times as our plans shifted. Made our time in Santa Barbara stress free knowing our dog was in good hands!

Honey communicated well, and quickly. Even before booking she reached out to ensure everything with our booking request was accurate. She sent us plenty of pics of our dog having fun, unprompted. Our dog was happy and tired when she dropped him off and she gave us wonderful recommendations on other dog friendly places to go.

Angelin was so great with my goofy but super anxious dog Carl. I was worried about leaving him at a new place with a new person, but when we met Angelin, I felt totally comfortable about it. She has the most warm, calm energy and Carl was totally happy to hang out with her. She’s also really communicative and easy to work with. We had a great experience and will definitely reach out to her in the future.

I can't recommend Sandy enough. We were in a bind needing a last-minute sitter, and she was incredibly responsive and flexible. She made the logistics simple. My fiancé had no trouble at all coordinating drop-off and pick-up. While we were away, she sent photo updates that showed our dog relaxed and happy. When we picked him up, he was clearly well-cared for and in great spirits. Sandy truly saved the day. Thank you!

I’m so grateful for Vivian & Taylor helping me out with Max. And it was a huge plus that my dog got to have a play date with Daisy! Communication was easy and clear. I had to make a last minute modification in my schedule & they were accommodating. They asked if Max had any special medical needs & let me see their home & backyard. I loved the updates—they sent photos & videos and I could tell Max was truly having a blast. I would highly recommend & would definitely book again!

This was our first time using Rover and we were a little hesitant about the whole process especially since our fur baby is timid and sometimes anxious. However, Saychelle was very sweet, communicative, and accommodating and quickly put me at ease. From the moment my husband dropped her off, we knew she was the perfect fit. If we are ever in the Santa Barbara area again, Saychelle will be our go to dog sitter.

Joshua is super friendly and even offered us tips on what to do in Santa Barbara, and which restaurants were dog friendly. He was very good with our dog Cocoa, and I don't think she even noticed that we were gone! We really appreciated Joshua's flexibility in terms of timing for the doggy daycare and would use him again if we were back in Santa Barbara.

Tonka often gets nervous around new people, but when meeting Tory, she immediately walked up to her for pets, heading straight up the stairs and into Tory's apartment. We could tell from all of the photos Tory shared that Tonka was super happy and content in her company. We'd have no hesitation booking Tory again.
