“Jennie is fantastic, we had a few last minute curveballs before flying out of town to visit family and Jennie managed it like a champ. She kept us informed each day on how our dog was doing and sent pics. She’s professional, caring and proactive. Thank you Jennie for taking such wonderful care of Gigi!”

“Grace was amazing. She came to meet me and Priya before my vacation, coordinated with another friend to be there when Priya was getting dropped off, was super responsive, and sent a ton of pictures. I'm confident Priya has a great time while I was out of town!!”

“Annabelle was absolutely wonderful! She was great with our two dogs, one being a puppy. She followed all instructions and left the house very tidy. This was our first time leaving the puppy so we were hesitant, but I’d definitely feel comfortable leaving them with Annabelle again.”

“Lara is the best! She spent 6 nights with our one year old dog who is in peak adolescence, and not always easy to watch. Lara also very kindly managed our dog and helped out when repair people came into the house. On top of it all, we came home to a clean house!”

“Kristina watched our two cats for a week and was stellar. She stayed overnight and took excellent care of both Chestnut and Princess Nunu. The cats took to her pretty fast - Nunu can be standoffish and shy with people - but after a day - she warmed up to Kristina. After we came home, Nunu seemed to pine for Kristina a bit and look for her :). Our cats are indoor/outdoor types - they come in at night and we close the cat door. Kristina kept a close eye on both and, once they came in after 9 pm, she kept them inside. She took great care of our home and was a true friend and caregiver to the cats. We had frequent updates throughout the day - with pics! So nice to see our pets have fun with her. We look forward to booking Kristina's services in the future when we travel. She is awesome, super friendly, and knows the are and pet care well. Highly recommend.”

“Kivi was so fantastic watching my doodle Winnie while I was traveling for the week. She took her on so many adventures and kept me updated with consistent communication and it really allowed me to relax on my trip knowing her and my apartment was in good hands. Thanks so much again!”

About: Had dogs growing up and have been talking care of pets on and off since 2014. Usually in town for holidays because of work and would love to take care of your pets while you’re away or walk them when you’re at work! I’m currently in between jobs so I have lots of time to walk and love on all your pets! I am flexible on time and day, but prefer weekdays. I want to work with you to provide the best care for your pets depending on what your space necessitates! Every pet is different and I look forward to working with you to make sure they’re cared for properly while you’re away.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for all my life. I can handle any pet, regardless of size or age. I love all animals and am very flexible when it comes to providing the care necessary to keep your pets happy! I’m a current UC Santa Cruz Junior studying Business Management Economics and working part time. I typically work Friday mornings and Saturday nights, however, I am flexible with my schedule in order to accommodate your pets when given enough notice! When I take care of pets, whether at my place or yours, I treat them like family. They get plenty of playtime, regular meals, and lots of attention! I also like to make sure owners are always up to date with how they’re pets are doing.
“Nora was absolutely fantastic! She stayed in our home for a week and took care of both our pup and home so well. We had a lot of specific requests and she went above and beyond meeting all of them. She was incredibly trustworthy and caring. She communicated frequently and sent lots of good update pics of our pup. I hope she will stay with our pup again in the future! If Nora is available, book her quick!”

About: I provide structured, attentive care for dogs of all sizes, with the most experience in medium and large breeds. I’m comfortable handling strong, high-energy dogs (including shepherds, retrievers, mastiffs, boxers, and similar breeds) and maintaining consistency with training, routines, and leash manners. My approach is calm, observant, and intentional. Whether your dog needs an active walk, reinforcement of basic commands, or simply steady companionship while you’re away, I prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication. I’ve cared for dogs in a variety of settings, including daily walks, extended stays, and house sitting, while keeping their routines intact. I’m also experienced with multi-dog households and understand how to manage different temperaments together. While most of my experience is with larger breeds, I also enjoy caring for small dogs and adjust my approach to match each dog’s size, energy level, and personality. I’m available for early morning (before 8am), midday/lunch-hour visits, and evening care on weekdays, as well as weekends. I plan ahead to stay consistent with each dog’s routine and will confirm timing clearly before booking. Repeat weekly walks are welcome. I follow each dog’s routine closely and adjust based on their size, energy level, and behavior. I’m comfortable handling larger, strong dogs and prioritize leash control, awareness on walks, and consistent boundaries. I keep environments clean and secure and follow any care instructions provided, whether your dog is used to being crated or prefers to be free in the home. My indoor space is set up to accommodate one large dog at a time (or two smaller dogs), with nearby access to parks, trails, and both paved and unpaved walking routes for regular exercise and varied environments depending on your dog’s needs.
About: Hi, I’m Morgan! I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud dog mom to my sweet 3-year-old Maltipoo 🐶 I’ve been dog-sitting for years and genuinely love getting to spend time with all different kinds of pups. I work remotely, so my schedule is super flexible and can easily be tailored to your dog’s needs. I’m also currently getting my master’s degree, and I use Rover to help support my tuition, which makes this something I truly care about and put a lot of effort into. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just wants someone to hang out and cuddle with, I’ll be there to give them lots of attention and love throughout the day. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always try to make them feel as safe, comfortable, and happy as possible while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I don’t take that lightly 💛 Right now, I’m not offering overnight stays in my home since I live with two other dogs, but I’m more than happy to help with: • Walks • Drop-in visits • Staying in your home I’ll follow your routine closely and keep things as normal and stress-free as possible for your pup. Just a heads up, I am allergic to cats, so I’m only able to care for dogs. Feel free to reach out with any questions at all. I’d love to meet you and your pup and make sure they feel right at home 🐾 I cater my schedule to your dog’s specific needs! I work from home and spend most of my time with my own sweet pup, so I can guarantee your dog will get plenty of attention, love, and playtime during their stay. I always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’m not offering overnight stays right now since I live with two other dogs, but I’m happy to do walks, drop-in visits, or stay in your house while boarding. I’ll follow any routines or instructions you leave and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care while you’re away. Since I work from home, I’m super flexible and can be there when your pet needs me most.
“Alex did amazing job watching our boxer boy. He send us lots of pictures and updates. Took him on long walks and gave him his medicine. Our pup was very comfortable and happy. He left our house clean and brought all the packages inside. Thank you for taking good care of our puppy and our house!”
