“This was our first time using River and so we were a bit nervous about leaving Betts with a complete stranger. Wes and his family made us feel at ease and our Cocker Spaniel Betts was well taken care of. We received regular updates, which made us very happy we'd chosen Wes and we highly recommend him!”


“Vanessa took great care of my baby boy while I was away! She gave me regular updates. My boy came back so happy and exhausted from all the fun he had! I would highly recommend trusting your fur baby with her 🥰”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience fostering dogs for a rescue organization and taking care of friend's dogs. I find true joy in caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. Whether it’s playing fetch at the park, going on long walks, or just spending quiet cuddle time together, I genuinely love making every dog feel safe, happy, and special. I grew up in a home filled with dogs and have had my own rescued doodle for the past six years. I personally trained him to become a certified therapy dog, and we volunteer together at schools to bring comfort and smiles to kids. Although he is very mellow and does not play too much with our dog friends, he loves having dogs stay with us! We live on the back of a property and have our own fenced-in yard. For the past three years, I’ve also fostered and volunteered with a senior dog rescue, Frosted Faces, which has given me valuable hands-on experience with older dogs who need extra patience and care. What sets me apart is my deep empathy and attentiveness to each dog’s individual needs. I’m experienced in administering medication and caring for needy pets, and I’m always gentle and patient as dogs settle into new environments. I truly see each dog as unique, and I strive to give them the love and respect they deserve every step of the way. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I make it a priority in my daily life. When I’m not working, I dedicate as much time as possible to caring for and bonding with the pets I sit for. As a teacher, I have a flexible schedule with plenty of availability on weekends, holidays, and evenings. This allows me to be present, attentive, and consistent—whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, or a calm, comforting presence. I offer a safe, loving, and relaxed environment for pets in my care. I live in a cozy, private home located at the back of a quiet property, complete with a securely fenced-in yard where dogs can safely explore and play. I’m also very active and love taking dogs on walks to a nearby park that has both a large grassy field and a fenced-in dog area for safe off-leash time. My own dog, a gentle and friendly 35-pound doodle, is incredibly calm and welcoming with other dogs. He’s been a wonderful companion while I’ve fostered senior dogs and often sets a great example with his mellow demeanor and friendly energy. I'm also happy to care for pets in your home if that’s what your dog prefers. In most cases, I would bring my doodle along with me, as he’s well-socialized, non-aggressive, and comfortable in new environments. I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine, whether at my home or yours.

“Martin was great—friendly and professional. He communicated with us daily, sending updates and pictures that reassured us our dog was in excellent hands. He responded quickly to any messages, which we really appreciated. We’ll definitely be booking with him again in the future.”


“She did an amazing job taking care of my dog Daisy! It was my first time using rover and was hesitant to book but she made the process easy and reassuring! She sent updates and daisy was really happy to stay with her! I will definitely be using her again in the future!”


“This was Pearls first stay with Teresa and the beginning of many more. Pearl had a wonderful time came home so calm and relaxed. Received pics of fun walks on beach, and having fun in yard. Thank you Teresa”


“Bennie has become a regular with Heather and she is so amazing with him. I love that I can leave knowing he’s having a great time with her pack and he’s in a loving home. I’m so grateful we found her.”


“Hands down absolutely the best. I’ve never left my baby with non-family but they took amazing care of Steve, with daily photos and updates, and even stayed up late to make sure I could pickup my baby as soon as I got home. What an awesome experience to find someone like Lisa who I can trust & highly recommend!”


“Any time you leave your pups with someone you don’t know, you naturally experience a sense of anxiety. That apprehension went away as soon as I dropped off my pups with Alan. He volunteered to show me the space where my dogs would be in his house, shared pictures of my dogs throughout the stay and gave me periodic updates on how they were doing. All this was greatly appreciated. You could tell Alan really loves dogs and enjoys pet sitting. I highly recommend Alan and plan on using this again!”


“Stacy was amazing. My two pups made great friends and had a wonderful time. Stacy was very responsive and sent constant updates. They built a ramp so my older pup had an easier time to get into the back yard. They make sure the pups in their care are loved We will definitely schedule with Stacy again!!”


“Sonia will be our first choice when we need a dog sitter again. She stayed in communication with us on a regular basis, sent pictures of our dogs, eliminating the stress of leaving the dogs behind. Sonia took care of our dogs with great care to giving our pup his meds, play time, walk time and giving so much TLC to them. Our dogs love her!”


About: I have been dog sitter for several years by taking care of my cousin’s dog, a yorkey, taking care of grandparents dog, a golden retriever, and dog sitting for several days a chihuahua, an English Cocker Spaniel and a Maltese. If your dog is high energy, I will take them on longer walks or runs. My availability on the week days are after 5pm and on weekends after 2pm. I am patient when it comes to animals and whatever needs and special care your dog might need, inform me before time and I will do my best to make your dog have the best time they can while Im being her sitter for the day or days required. Thank you, and hope you consider me. I work full time as a substitute teacher - which is a profession that makes me to available for pet sitting or dog walking after 5pm. You are welcome to schedule my services from Mon to Sat @ 5pm and on. Sundays @ 11am and forward. I have a fenced backyard and my surrounding neighbors do not own pets. I care for pets as if they were my own—making sure they’re fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of love, play, and attention. I follow all instructions closely, keep their environment clean and safe, and stay alert to any signs of discomfort or stress. You can feel confident knowing your pet will be in caring, reliable hands while you’re away.

“Katherine and her family are the best! My Abbi was cuddled and loved as if she was theirs! I received photos and a report every day on how she did. I highly recommend them for caring for your fur baby!!❤️”


“This is our second time having Caitlin watch our dog, it’s been a great experience from pick up to drop off! Our dog is very happy staying with her and her pups. It was nice to get daily photo updates. Thanks again! Would highly recommend hiring Caitlin for daycare/boarding needs.”


“We are so grateful to have found Eliana’s place just a week before our family trip. From the moment we dropped off our dog, we knew he was in good hands. Eleana was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease, and it was obvious that our senior dog felt comfortable and cared for. We could truly enjoy our vacation knowing he was safe, and happy. Thank you, Eliana, for treating our dog like family!”


“We are beyond grateful to Ethan and his wife, Angie, for taking superior care of our 4-month-old puppy, Mini! When we received a last-minute invite to attend the Rock & Grill Tijuana Summer Fest, we urgently needed a pet sitter and Ethan stepped up without hesitation. He even offered to pick Mini up from our home, which was incredibly kind and a huge time-saver. From the moment they welcomed her, it was clear Mini was in loving, capable hands. Ethan and Angie treated her like royalty! She came home with a new harness, leash, and an adorable toy; all such thoughtful touches that meant the world to us. Most importantly, Mini returned happy, healthy, and clearly smitten with her weekend getaway. Mini looked and felt her absolute best after her stay; her nails were neatly trimmed, her nose and paws had a soothing balsam applied, and she smelled so clean and fresh. These sweet, spa-like details truly show how much care and attention Ethan and Angie pour into each pet's visit. Mini’s tail hasn’t stopped wagging since she got back! Ethan and Angie are everything you hope for in a pet sitter...kind, communicative, and completely devoted to animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. 5-🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 and a huge thank you from all of us, especially Mini...🧔🏻♂️👩🏻🦱👨🏻🦱👧🏻🐶!!!”
