She regularly sent photos and updates, which gave me peace of mind and showed how thoughtful and caring she is. She was kind, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend Alice and would definitely work with her again!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Skilly received! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. They made Skilly feel comfortable, loved, and right at home, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received updates and could tell she was being treated like part of the family. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Skilly. We will absolutely be using your services again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

“My dog Duke had a great time with JJ and Family. JJ sent me plenty of pictures throughout the day to let me know how Duke was doing. She made sure Duke had toys to play with. Duke had a fun day full of playtime with the family dog. Duke can be very high energy, but JJ and her family did a really great job at taking care of him for me.”

“We left our dog with Oli for one week, and couldn’t have been happier! She sent some nice pictures, and when our flight from DC was delayed by several hours which made it necessary for our dog to stay with Oli for one additional night, she kindly accommodated us. In summary, we highly recommend Oli and would gladly utilize her services again!”
“This was my first time trying out Rover and I will say that I will not be using another dogsitter other than Fiona. She has been very communicative throughout the whole period, making sure to send pictures multiple times every day. I could see how much our dog enjoyed staying with Fiona's family. I 100% recommend Fiona and I guarantee your dog will be in her good, kind hands!”
“I’ve had one bad experience with rover and I swore to never use it again but Cooper and Nora changed my mind. I booked with them very last minute and they responded within a few minutes! Showing up to the house the environment seemed so friendly and safe and I’m so thankful for that. Cooper and Nora gave my puppy the time and attention and fun he needed all while sending me pictures as an update! And even gave my baby breezy a bath before I picked him up. I highly recommend this family if anyone needs a trustworthy and kind dog sitter :) thank you Cooper and Nora for making my second experience with Rover way better than my last!”
About: I’m the sitter for you if you want someone who actually LOVES what they do. Since mine passed away, I’ve taken care of strays but I still love having those lovely personalities panting around. That’s why I do this, because I actually like it. I’m great at administering medicine, feeding on a schedule, training, cleaning up their mess, and love to be active with those furry pals. Whenever I have a day off that I don’t have plans on I head over to the Ventura Animal Shelter to donate some of my time and attention to lovely animals. I would love to be able to spend time with dogs since at my current stage in life can’t afford one. ❤️ When taking care of pets in the homes of others, a lot of trust goes into place. I’d be glad to take on that trust.
About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life, but developed a love for it at 12. I've cared for many dogs from friends and family throughout the years, including our family dog. I'm comfortable and familiar with feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, bathing, giving meds, and giving lots of love and attention! I'm responsible, patient, and attentive and my goal is to always keep them comfortable, happy, and healthy! Am currently unemployed, so open schedule! Available for all needs including drop ins, walks, pet sitting, etc. Will update when my schedule becomes more full! I take pet safety very seriously and will always make sure pets are secure and comfortable. I’m very attentive to their habits, moods, and needs. I’ll make sure they always have plenty of food & water, love, and attention. I follow each owner's instructions and schedule and keep a close eye on pets. If pet sitting, I always keep the environment clean and organized and always supervise. When on walks, I always take precautions and stay alert for any situation, and follow any instructions if given and will always keep you updated. Safety is always no. 1 priority! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I always treat & love them like my own.
“Kay and her husband are both great people. They are true dog lovers. I will not leave my best friend with just anyone, so I'm glad I found them. I've used their services twice (already booked a third), and both times they were accommodating and gave plenty of amazing updates with pictures. Both times I came to pick my buddy up he was happy and relaxed. When I dropped him off the second time, he was really excited so I know he enjoys his stays. I will be entrusting the care of my friend to them for my future trips (I can only hope their schedule doesn't get packed, since everyone keeps leaving stellar reviews ?).”

I contacted Rover on a Thursday night and Mariana replied the same day and our dog was able to meet Mariana the next day. She is a professional with customer service and caring for the needs of our dog. We were so lucky she had room to accept our dog for 11 days. Our dog was spoiled while he was with Mariana and they treated him like their pet. I give Mariana A+++. Thank you so much for everything you did to take care of our dog.
Brooke was absolutely amazing with my two pups and kitty! This was a last minute booking and she took the best care of my fur babies. She was super punctual, communicative, and sent me daily updates and photos of the crew so I always felt like I knew how they were doing. She also took the best care of my house, keeping it clean and doing little extras like washing the linens and towels that she used before I cam home. I will definitely be booking with her again when I travel.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Santa Paula home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Santa Paula.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
