“Jazmine was wonderful with my two corgis. One of my dogs has terrible anxiety, but Jazmine was able to really help her stay calm and get through her scared moments. She also did some training for my younger dog. She was always punctual, a very good communicator, and handled herself professionally.”

“Valeriya did a wonderful job and was extremely professional and accommodating while looking after our pet over the holidays. We were extremely grateful for her and would definitely book again!”

About: I have worked in the vet field for 5+ years. Also am familiar with boarding procedures. I.e: special feeding instructions, Separate feeding + meds etc I am a very active person. Walking for a good amount of time would not phase me and if your pets requires some outdoor time. That expectation will definitely be met. I mix my everyday lifestyle with working with animals whenever I can I am very patient, loving, and overall a sucker for fur baby! I have had my fair share of experiences with all kinds of fur babies! From young to senior! My experience will definitely go above and beyond
“2nd time booking Asta to do check ins on our doggie. We couldn't be happier with the care our dog received! We felt completely at ease, she sent us pics of her check ins with our dog, gave him belly rubs which he for sures loved! Would definitely recommend her!”


About: I’m the mom to a cat named Zeppelin, a dog named Stevie and a horse named Cece. I successfully trained both Stevie and Zeppelin (yes you can train a cat!) myself and have dabbled in equine training as well. Being the guardian of a nervous, reactive pup, I pride myself on understanding animal behavior and dog body language. After bringing Stevie home, I was quickly thrown into the world of dog training and behavior modification out of necessity and I have a special place in my heart for nervous pups. I've even started training other people's dogs on the side! After training my own dog, I fell in love with the process and couldn't put it down! I’ve also worked in a veterinary office and feel confident in my abilities to keep your animals safe and know how to handle emergencies. I’m a lab assistant for an environmental toxicology lab and train dogs on the side. I am available for drop ins and walks in the late afternoon and evening most days as well as any time on Sunday’s. At this time I am not available for boarding or overnight stays. I’ll treat your pets like I treat my own, all of mine are rescues that took time, patience and trust to get to where we are now. I understand that having a new person around might be scary for your pet at first but I look forward to building a relationship with them so we all feel safe and comfortable. Having a nervous, reactive dog and a nervous cat has taught me how to better understand dog and cat body language and to go at their own pace.
“Nancy took amazing care of our two furry loves! She was very communicative and reassuring. I appreciated all the love and care she showed and would book her again in a heartbeat!”


“Carol did a great job watching Buster. She's super reliable and really connects with dogs. Buster is a rather large dog, but Carol had no problems keeping him under control. I highly recommend Carol!”

“Madeline was great! She took great care of my kitty while I was away. She had great communication and provided lots of pictures and details about each visit. I would definitely have her pet sit again!”

“Andrea was amazing and so kind! My dogs loved staying at her place for 6 hours while we did some touristy things around the area. She’s very responsive and gave me updates and pictures throughout the time they were there. I highly recommend having her watch your dogs!!”

“Carol did a fantastic job on taking care of our super fussy and shy two kitties on a very short notice. She was very understanding and accommodating to my changing situation, challenging personalities of my kitties, and worked with me throughout the duration of the stay. She is highly professional and caring and updated me with the detailed reports on them after each visit so I was be able to be at ease and did not have to worry about them during my trip.

Sand City pet parents share their Rover experiences
Andrea was amazing to work with as always! And it is clear that our cats love her too! She is incredibly responsive and follows (even my most ridiculous) directions to a tee! As someone who is very anxious to leave my cats, I always feel like they are in great hands with her and I wasn’t worried at all on my trip.

Jazmine was wonderful with my two corgis. One of my dogs has terrible anxiety, but Jazmine was able to really help her stay calm and get through her scared moments. She also did some training for my younger dog. She was always punctual, a very good communicator, and handled herself professionally.

Citlali was so great with my dog Molly. I know she comes back tired from their walks together. She’s been such a great help in last minute drop ins and walks. She listens to all of my various instructions to a T. I will continue to book with her and you should too!

Our girls love Marion and so do we! She great with communication and great with our girls. She let us know when our hound was acting different and sent plenty of pictures so we got to see our girls. We’re happy to have someone we can trust with our girls whenever we need a sitter

Flora took exceptional care of our two cats while we were away. She is professional, friendly, and an excellent communicator. She always arrives on time, and is flexible when situations arise. I highly recommend Flora as a pet sitter because she is trustworthy, responsible, responsive, friendly, educated, and an excellent communicator.
