“Rachael was absolutely amazing with my 11 week old puppy Hamilton ! Booked her for a drop in visit. She was so communicative and sent me so many pictures. She followed all my directions perfectly and my puppy was left happy and tired and took the best nap of his life !! I can't wait to book her again and I can't wait to see her relationship with Hamilton develop ! He absolutely loved her ! Thank you Rachael!”

“Melissa was so great to work with and I can’t wait for her to stop by to see our pup Daisy again! She came over to meet Daisy before our first drop-in and it was an instant hit. I felt so comfortable before, during, and after the visit with all of Melissa’s great questions and update, and I know Daisy loved having someone come shower her with affection when I was out for a long day. We’ll definitely ask Melissa to come back again!”

“Ashlee was great! She stopped in right on time, fed and played with Bella, scooped her litter, and topped off her water! Bella was a happy camper when I got home and she didn’t even notice I was gone 😂”

About: I have loved dogs my whole life, but I did not realize how deep that love could be until I adopted my first dog, Flynn, 11 years ago. He was a 90lb German Shepherd with reactivity towards other dogs, which led me down the path of learning everything I could about canine behavior and training. I have taken multiple dog training classes focused on positive reinforcement techniques and have used tools such as clicker training, prong collars, and e-collars. I learned how to navigate situations in which Flynn was reactive, making sure I had full control of a very strong dog at all times. I raised Flynn from 8 weeks old (puppy shark phase) to his calmer senior years. The challenges I faced with Flynn taught me how to read canine body language, manage reactivity, and handle high energy, strong dogs with patience and love. After losing Flynn, I thought I could never get another dog again, but come February 2024, I welcomed 7-week-old GSD mix Artemis (Artie) into my life. It has been a completely different training experience in much more challenging ways. From potty training to crate training and leash manners, she has tested everything I have learned (and helped me learn more). Every challenge and every puppy shark bite has been completely worth it. She is now thriving and continues to learn thanks to consistency, structure, and ongoing enrichment. I also have hands-on experience with senior dog care. I started caring for our elderly family dog (Socrates) after my father passed away 4 years ago. He is now a 14-year-old Dachshund Terrier mix with limited mobility and some incontinence. I provide daily care, including hygiene and administering medication, and provide a clean, comforting environment to support his quality of life. He is getting a lot of treats and love in my care. My goal is to build trust and communication to maintain a safe environment for dogs and others. Whether your dog is a puppy in training, a reactive adult, or a senior who needs special attention, I bring patience and knowledgeable care. Every dog is different, and I take the time to get to know what makes yours special. I'd love to meet them and offer care you can trust. My life revolves around my sweet pup, Artemis (aka Artie). This means that besides work and taking care of her needs, I am quite open. I work remotely some days and can drop in on your babies during the day or in the evenings. On the weekends my availability is wide open. Building trust through consistent communication is important to me. Since I know that every dog is different, I understand each has individual needs and am eager to learn them. As a dog owner, I also understand how important it is for someone who is caring for your dog to know your dog and know what they need (I'm the type who writes a whole manual for any sitter). In my home, I have a senior dog who likes his alone time and an energetic, young GSD mix dog. For daycare, your pups can interact as little or as much as appropriate. I also have a small fenced yard where I can play with the dogs.

“Chelsea was a wonderful cat sitter to my 2 cats when I was away on holiday for a week. I received detailed daily updates and pictures which gave me peace of mind. She was also quick to respond to messages. The cats are happy, the home is tidy - what more can I ask for? Thank you so much, Chelsea!! I will definitely use your service in the future.”

About: I've had a dog and a bunny since I was 7 and had many years of experience taking care of my loved one's pets. I know how to take care of them with the most love and care possible. I’m currently a college student on summer break, which gives me plenty of flexible free time. I can easily schedule pet care throughout the day to fit your pet’s needs and ensure consistent attention and care. Whether at my home or the client’s, I always follow the pet’s established routine carefully, including feeding times and exercise. I provide fresh food and water, supervise them closely, and offer lots of attention so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of dogs and cats for the last couple of years through friends and neighbors whether they were under 1 year or senior pets. I’ve taken dogs on walks and to dog parks (if approved), as well as house sat. I’m currently in the process of starting a new position of which I start on the August 6th. Between now and then, I will be fully available for pet care aside from August 2nd + 3rd. I can crate your dog or cats if needed, always ensuring they are in a safe space by making sure there is no food or anything they can accidentally swallow in the vacinity, ensuring they stick to a routine if applicable, and making sure they are always fed and played with!

“Jessica did a great job checking in on my pets and making sure they were well taken care of. Thanks for a great first experience with Rover, Jessica!”

About: From zoomies to snoozies, I’ve got every pup covered! Whether it’s a playful puppy or a wise senior, I treat every dog like my own, because to me, they are family. With experience across all breeds and ages, I’ll make sure your fur baby gets the love, care, and attention they deserve! I work full-time in a hybrid format, with Fridays off after 1 p.m. On weekends, I’m available for dog sitting, walks, or any other pet care needs you may have. My apartment complex features a dog park and a walking path around the grounds, offering plenty of space for outdoor fun. I understand the importance of regular walks in a dog’s routine, so I make sure my own fur baby gets several each day. We also have a sunny patio where dogs can relax and soak up the rays. Felix, my pup, is great with other dogs—he’s patient, playful, and almost fatherly with puppies, while with older dogs, he knows to embrace the laid-back pace of retirement life.

About: I grew up with 2 cats and 2 dogs. In college, my roommate brought her dog in, and when she was away, I treated her dog as my own. I walked, fed, and played with her. I have a lot of experience taking care of them. I currently volunteer at the OC Animal Shelter in the kitten nursery and took a dog 101 course. No matter what type of pet you have, I would love to care for them. I'm free after 5 pm Monday-Thursday and Friday after 2 pm. Saturday and Sunday, I'm free most mornings, and I will always be free after 1 pm. I respond quickly and send however many updates/pictures you want. I will always keep an eye on your pet, even if they are in an enclosed environment. I will follow any instruction/schedule to the tee. Even though I'm energetic, if your pet wants a calm night, I will be able to provide it. My main priority is making sure your pet feels safe and loved.

About: I’m a Pomeranian dog mom. I’ve had a senior dog in the past. I’m good at dog grooming, and extensive senior and puppy dog care. I enjoy exercise, so if you have a dog that needs plenty of exercise, they are more than welcomed to come! Timid and loving dogs that need their personal space, are also welcomed, I give personalized attention and care to each dog. I use playpens for dogs, not crates, unless requested by the dog owner. Every dog will be cared for with attention to detail and the utmost care while their stay, with daily update check ins with their owners. My pet care schedule is flexible and full time at the moment, if inconveniences arrive I communicate with pet parents before their scheduled visit or stay. I live in a private gated community, with a large space to walk/jog in and a reserved dog park area with accessible dog waste stations. I also have a private patio area in our home, where the dogs can get some fresh air or have a potty break, and an extra medium doggy house that our current Pomeranian does not use. Pet care in other pet parents homes varies, as all clients are different and all pet parents have different needs.

“Aileen was great! I would trust her to watch my fur babies anytime!”
