Ryane was great and patient with my cat, Ghost. My cat can be a little shy at first when she meets new people but they became fast friends and Ghost seemed to warm up to Ryane quickly. Ryane followed the instructions that were given and gave me a little update at each check in. I highly recommend Ryane and would likely book again.

Kacey and Kelly are great! They are wonderful communicators with updates. In the midst of a storm and power outage, they kept Brea safe and as comfortable as possible and let me know what was happening. Definitely will use them again.

About: Having cared for many dogs throughout my college years, I’ve learned the importance of providing attentive, safe, and loving care to ensure your dog feels comforted and secure in your absence. My goal is to make the time apart as stress-free as possible, by maintaining routines, offering companionship, and keeping your furry friend happy until you return. I currently am working 4 days a week with availability Friday evenings and Saturday-Monday all day. I am willing to make multiple stops at your house or stay for a few hours if that makes your furry friend less stressed. I’ll take your dog on engaging walks tailored to their energy level and needs, allowing them to explore and stay active. Playtime is also a priority whether it’s tug-of-war, fetch, or other favorite activities. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of fun and mental stimulation. My goal is to ensure they feel content and cared for so they can relax and be comfortable until you return.

About: Having pets since I was 7, I have long understood the importance of animal care. Since I was in high school, friends, family, and neighbors have asked for my help in pet sitting and house sitting. Over the years I have taken care of horses, goats, sheep, rodents, reptiles, insects, fish, birds, and of course dogs and cats. Needless to say, I am not afraid of any animal and believe all living creatures deserve the top quality care. I have two years of experience majoring in Wildlife Care, and have taken many courses in animal husbandry. This, along with my Dog and Cat first aid certification through the Red Cross, has made me fantastic at caring for the medical aspect of animal care. I can administer medication and handle emergencies with a clear head and a focus on the animal's well being. In the past, I have taken care of my own elderly/disabled dogs as well as those of my friends and family. This includes dogs in hospice care that have needed to be carried. While I have less experience with puppies than I do elderly dogs, I have raised and trained my own current dog from 1 y.o.. I am not afraid of the mess or energy level of puppies and puppy teeth don't bother me! I am a barista and am returning to school in the fall. With odd hours for a regular job, I know I can lend my services to someone who needs it! I take care of animals in the way the owner sees best, whether that's yard time, or walks, or both! I have no problem crating a dog, cleaning up after an animal, and giving medications or food.

About: I’m someone who understands that your pets are family, you want the best for them and I will provide the best for you and your pets. I love all animals, no matter the size or breed. I will take your animals to the park by my house, for a good walk. I will make sure your animals are safe and happy at all times. I have no issue with cleaning up after the animals. I can provide additional services such as giving medications, vacuuming up pet hair, and collecting the mail for you. I am flexible with hours, I can stay calm in every situation, I am sensitive to the needs and wants of your animals, I am reliable and consistent, I am trustworthy, and I genuinely will care for your animals like I do my own. Unfortunately, I cannot watch other dogs at my house due to my dog not liking other dogs.

About: Hi, I'm Aly! I am available for dog walking and drop-ins; I am also open to taking care of your cats.I have experience administering insulin as well since my cat has had diabetes. I have a large fenced in yard they could run around in. I have about 10 years of pet care experience (walking, feeding, potty breaks, etc). I will walk your pup as often as you like. Being a pet owner I understand what an important part of the family our dogs are, and would provide the best care possible. I have owned dogs my entire life, and will treat your fur baby like it is my own and we'll have the best time! I will always keep you updated with pictures & status updates :) I am very patient, responsible, and punctual.... I can't wait to meet you and your pup! Looking forward to hearing from you! My schedule is really open and flexible right now. I can make myself available anytime during 8AM - 5PM but I can be flexible if needed. As a remote worker and proud cat parent, I’m used to structuring my day around feeding schedules, playtime, and regular check-ins. Whether it’s giving morning meds, refreshing food and water, or simply providing some companionship, I enjoy making animals feel safe and loved. Caring for pets isn’t a chore—it’s a rewarding part of my everyday life. In both settings, I prioritize open communication with pet owners to understand each pet’s unique needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized and caring experience for every pet.

About: I am currently a part-time Professional Dog Bather , working hands on with dogs of all kinds. With a safety certification and training, I work to ensure the safety and comfort of every dog under my care is always a priority. I was previously an Assistant Manager at Camp Bow Wow, a daycare, boarding, and grooming facility, supervising large and small dogs of all breeds for 2 years. I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, whether it be my own dogs and cats, or pets of family, friends, and neighbors. I have years of experience with walking, feeding, and watching over dogs and cats alike on a regular basis. I have spent most of my life dedicating much time, care, and love to any animal around me! I have experience sitting puppies as young as 3 months that I have participated in with training. I also had a senior dog of my own. I am comfortable and experienced with a wide range of breeds. I am aiming to go to be a dog groomer and would love to add to my experience! In 2023 I shadowed a Vet Doctor and Vet Tech at a clinic for two weeks, where I was able to witness and learn about various surgeries and basic health checkups. I assisted the team with care for both cats and dogs. I was Pet First Aid and CPR certified for 3 years. I am currently working a flexible schedule and have much time to dedicate to pet sitting and helping out some pet parents! I keep my calendar on my profile updated. I am very attentive to dogs needs. I will make sure your pet receives the attention and care that it requires. I am willing to crate the dog if needed. I will make sure they are active and have fun, while being safe. I can assure kindness and patience will be showed your pet. I can work in a variety of environments, and alongside other pets.

About: I’m new to Rover but have always loved animals! I’ve helped care for family pets by feeding them, taking them on walks, and giving them attention and love. Even though I don’t have professional experience yet, I’m super responsible, gentle, and quick to learn. I’m calm and patient, and I always pay close attention to your pet’s needs. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, treat your pet like my own, and keep you updated so you feel at ease. I work a part-time job, but I’m available on weekdays in the mornings and afternoons. I’m reliable, flexible, and always happy to spend time with your pet—making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely and keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I respect your space, stay tidy, and give your pet my full attention while I’m there.

About: I will treat every dog like a friend, or like my own pup. I have fostered and helped care for several dogs many sick and elderly the past few years and every second was worth all the effort and some. I take my time in getting to know each dog and to bond with them so I know who they are. It is most important that I gain the owners trust as well as the dogs. This trust is only gained through patience and understanding. Some dogs are friendlier and energetic where as some may be shy and reserved and it is all about taking your time to know them and allowing them the time to know you. Not only am I willing to do this but this is something I love to do.

I highly recommend Summer! She checked in our dog several times when my husband and I were out of town for a few days. I appreciated her updates, communication and photos. She took the time to play with our dog and give her lots of cuddles, building trust and comfort - it put me at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands! We’ll definitely be reaching out to Summer for dog sitting needs in the future!

About: I genuinely love dogs and want to get more dogs. I semi trained my dog to do simple tricks, he is a very energetic dog and most of the time just likes to run around. I am currently a Juvenile Justice Specialist and my shift are hybrid so my days are a little different but am always available to fit any care needs outside of my work schedule! I usually let dogs do their things and relax and walk around as there really aren’t ain’t hazards or nothing they can destroy laying around in my living room.

Second time using Tonilynn and I have absolutely nothing but the best things to say. Tonilynn took care of my two senior dogs wonderfully; giving one insulin twice a day and cleaning up messes. The messages and pictures she sends are so reassuring and bring such a peace of mind to me while away. Will always recommend her.

About: I've taken care and rescued all sorts of animals from guinea pigs to giant pitties. I have been in rescue for about 9 years. It comes out of pocket, but if I don't save them or help who will? I am also good at medication injection and oral administration of medication as well. I can do walks, check in's, doggy day care, house sit, etc. I will accommodate your needs for your furbaby. I am not afraid of bigger dogs as most people might be. I think of them as giant teddy bears. I will send plenty of updates and pictures as I know leaving your furbaby with a stranger can be absolutely nerve wrecking. Whatever makes my customer happy I will be more than willing to meet their request. Just give me instruction, your furbabies name, any allergies, medications, walk/yard time and frequency, feeding schedule, and any other information you see fit and I guarantee your precious furbaby will find a new friend! I am currently employed part time and in school part time this semster over at Johnson College for Veterinary Nursing. My schedule is pretty packed, but I will make accommodations with you to accommodate the needs of your furbabies or ones with scales. I moved in March of last year so boarding at the new place might be a bit busy. I do have enough room to accommodate at least 3 dogs. I don't have a fenced in yard at my apartment however I love to take them on long walks. I have walked dogs of all sizes. Super tiny to 100+lbs. I also have my own pupper Krypto so if boarding at my home please make sure your dog is other dog friendly as well as cats. I have 2 cats, 1 dog, 1 rat and a goldfish. If you are looking to board in my home I suggest a meet & greet to make sure your furbabies and mine are safe for their stay. I care for my clients furbabies like they are my own. I make sure the furbabies are happy and healthy. I will make sure my clients needs and wants are met. If you need me to watch them at your house, your house will be treated like my home. I will make sure your home is like you left it. I love to send updates because I know leaving your furbabies is really nerve wrecking.

About: I have taken care of many different kinds of pets from a very young age. I grew up taking care of the many dogs, both big and small, in my house. My family used to breed English bulldogs, so I am capable of looking after puppies as well as older dogs. We now have 2 dogs and a pig that I help look after. I am currently a full-time student and student-athlete. This being said during the day I do have a couple of hours of classes/ practice. Obviously, I would be with pets any chance I can get before, after, and between classes as much as possible. I have been pet sitting for my neighbors and friends for years, so I am familiar/comfortable with all different kinds of dog breeds and their specific needs as well as other animals.

Ryane was great and patient with my cat, Ghost. My cat can be a little shy at first when she meets new people but they became fast friends and Ghost seemed to warm up to Ryane quickly. Ryane followed the instructions that were given and gave me a little update at each check in. I highly recommend Ryane and would likely book again.

Jamel helps me with my two dogs. They are more like family then Pets and Jamel understood that and went above and beyond. He takes them on long walks and jogs on a trail in my area with them. He takes them to the park and plays with them. Anytime Jamel sees them he always has treats for them. You can tell the true love and passion he has not just for my two babies, but animals in general. Jamel never fails to show genuine care and always brings my pups back happy and healthy. They miss him everytime he goes. We love Jamel and are very grateful for him and his service to us!

She took the time to play with our dog and give her lots of cuddles, building trust and comfort - it put me at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands! We’ll definitely be reaching out to Summer for dog sitting needs in the future!

About: I genuinely love dogs and want to get more dogs. I semi trained my dog to do simple tricks, he is a very energetic dog and most of the time just likes to run around. I am currently a Juvenile Justice Specialist and my shift are hybrid so my days are a little different but am always available to fit any care needs outside of my work schedule! I usually let dogs do their things and relax and walk around as there really aren’t ain’t hazards or nothing they can destroy laying around in my living room.

Second time using Tonilynn and I have absolutely nothing but the best things to say. Tonilynn took care of my two senior dogs wonderfully; giving one insulin twice a day and cleaning up messes. The messages and pictures she sends are so reassuring and bring such a peace of mind to me while away. Will always recommend her.

About: I've taken care and rescued all sorts of animals from guinea pigs to giant pitties. I have been in rescue for about 9 years. It comes out of pocket, but if I don't save them or help who will? I am also good at medication injection and oral administration of medication as well. I can do walks, check in's, doggy day care, house sit, etc. I will accommodate your needs for your furbaby. I am not afraid of bigger dogs as most people might be. I think of them as giant teddy bears. I will send plenty of updates and pictures as I know leaving your furbaby with a stranger can be absolutely nerve wrecking. Whatever makes my customer happy I will be more than willing to meet their request. Just give me instruction, your furbabies name, any allergies, medications, walk/yard time and frequency, feeding schedule, and any other information you see fit and I guarantee your precious furbaby will find a new friend! I am currently employed part time and in school part time this semster over at Johnson College for Veterinary Nursing. My schedule is pretty packed, but I will make accommodations with you to accommodate the needs of your furbabies or ones with scales. I moved in March of last year so boarding at the new place might be a bit busy. I do have enough room to accommodate at least 3 dogs. I don't have a fenced in yard at my apartment however I love to take them on long walks. I have walked dogs of all sizes. Super tiny to 100+lbs. I also have my own pupper Krypto so if boarding at my home please make sure your dog is other dog friendly as well as cats. I have 2 cats, 1 dog, 1 rat and a goldfish. If you are looking to board in my home I suggest a meet & greet to make sure your furbabies and mine are safe for their stay. I care for my clients furbabies like they are my own. I make sure the furbabies are happy and healthy. I will make sure my clients needs and wants are met. If you need me to watch them at your house, your house will be treated like my home. I will make sure your home is like you left it. I love to send updates because I know leaving your furbabies is really nerve wrecking.

About: I have taken care of many different kinds of pets from a very young age. I grew up taking care of the many dogs, both big and small, in my house. My family used to breed English bulldogs, so I am capable of looking after puppies as well as older dogs. We now have 2 dogs and a pig that I help look after. I am currently a full-time student and student-athlete. This being said during the day I do have a couple of hours of classes/ practice. Obviously, I would be with pets any chance I can get before, after, and between classes as much as possible. I have been pet sitting for my neighbors and friends for years, so I am familiar/comfortable with all different kinds of dog breeds and their specific needs as well as other animals.

Christina is a very sweet girl/dog walker that I would highly recommend. She has taken care of my pup for 4 years on and off when we travel on vacation or when on business trips. She is very trustworthy and diligent. She always shows up. She gives my guy insulin and tests him 2x a day when we are away as well as giving him eye drops and medication for seizures as my dog is diabetic and gets dry eye from his condition. She texts us when she arrives and leaves and the results. She also waters our plants in the summer, and has pulled in our trash cans. She's a great dog sitter that I highly recommend!
