“Mariana and her family make your pet feel at home. She asks for and follows your dog's diet and activity instructions. My dog still has plenty of puppy energy but Mariana kept her engaged and walked her frequently. I will definitely use Mariana's and Rover services again. My dog was returned to me happy and clean nd healthy.”

“We were SO thrilled to find Peggy and Jamey on DogVacay. We're new to the area and were having such a hard time finding people we felt comfortable leaving our beloved little Pom with -- and the moment we met Peggy and Jamey, we knew they were perfect! So sweet, so prepared with all the right questions -- they are an awesome and loving couple! We were able to enjoy our vacation without ever once worrying about our little fur ball.. It was such a relief! And when we had to extend our trip by a day, Peggy and Jamey were super accommodating and understanding. We know our pup will be so excited to stay with them again in the future!”


“Grammy Kim, is very caring and good with a Laila. She takes her to the park and never has more than one or two dogs. My dog is always excited to go to her house when I have to travel.”


About: Hi! I’m Paola, a 29-year-old professional dog groomer with 7 years of grooming experience and 10 years of trusted dog-sitting under my belt. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I love caring for them as if they were my own. Since I work full-time as a groomer, your pup would come along with me to my shop during the day—so they’ll never be left alone and will be in a safe, pet-friendly environment surrounded by other dogs and professionals. If you’re interested, I can also provide grooming services during their stay for an additional fee (just let me know in advance!). Whether your dog is active, shy, or somewhere in between, I’m confident they’ll feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while they’re with me! Pet care is a part of my daily life, both personally and professionally. As a full-time dog groomer, I’m constantly around dogs—caring for them, making sure they feel comfortable, and paying close attention to their behavior and needs. Outside of work, I provide dog sitting and boarding, so my routine always includes walks, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Since dogs come with me to work, they’re never left alone and always part of my day from morning to night. Caring for pets isn’t just something I do—it’s a lifestyle I truly enjoy. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. At home, I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can play and enjoy some fresh air, and I share my space with my friendly Labrador who loves having doggy visitors. Pets in my care get plenty of attention, playtime, cuddles, and supervision throughout the day. Since I bring dogs to work with me at the grooming shop, they’re never left alone and stay in a safe, pet-friendly environment.

“Kaye was amazing!! It was my first time leaving my two cats with a stranger, and she made me feel so comfortable. She was a great communicator and every photo she sent made me know the kitties were happy and comfortable. One of my cats is incredibly shy and i assumed he would spend the week hiding, and a few days in she sent a picture of him next to her! She is GOOD! I will definitely be taking my cats to Kaye next time i leave town:)”


“Betty had an amazing time! She was so pooped the next day from having too much fun. Super understanding of her medical needs - truly a great host and trustworthy partner for your pets.”


“Rachel was so sweet and made sure Teddy felt loved while we were away. She sent me updates and photos daily. Teddy got some playtime with her granddaughters and came home happy. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave him with her again. Thanks, Rachel!”


“We don’t need a dog sitter often, but Annie is our “Go to” sitter. We have three dogs that can be loud and demanding, but she had them comfortable and relaxed in minutes. They’ve had experience with Pit Bulls and Dobermans, and nothing our (initially cautious and frightened) dogs did bothered them. Lots of dog toys too to keep them occupied! A definite find in Oxnard.”


“We were very happy with Steph and it seemed our dog was happy too. She followed our feeding instructions and made sure he had 2 walks a day and got to play fetch in her backyard. I really liked the way Steph stated in touch with us through photos of our dog and comments on how he was doing. We highly recommend Step for a dog sitter . Thank you Steph”
