“Aviana was sweet, attentive, and reliable watching my two cats. She checked in and sent pictures every day (even when they were hiding) and I had peace of mind that she would show up and take care of them. Would definitely recommend or hire again!”
“Mariella was amazing with our dog and cat! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy while we were away as well as helped out with some things for the house. We were able to enjoy our time away without a single worry about our pets. Our dog is very high energy and can be a pain in the butt, but Mariella took on the challenge and took extra care to make sure our dog was happy and fulfilled while we were away. Will definitely book again if we take another trip!”
“First time using Rover and Aly did great! This is my first time leaving my dogs with someone that I didn't know beforehand so naturally I was nervous but I have ZERO complaints about Alys care - Aly came to meet my dogs before hand and I was pleasantly surprised as to how calm they reacted to her, she's definitely got the right energy and the dogs know it. She was punctual, and is a great communicator. She was also so patient and helpful with my 16yr old boy & I appreciated that so much, not everyone understands or has the patience for the needs of an old boy but Aly did great. Thank you for making my first experience a good one Aly! I will be re-booking in the future(:”

About: While I haven't owned a dog in years, I've cared for many family members. I'm comfortable around large and small dogs. Most of my dog experience has been with pitbulls and chihuahuas. This includes walkings, feedings, bathing, and play. I am comfortable giving medicine although most of my experience with that has been with cats. I'm eager to work with you and your dog! I'm currently job hunting and have a lot of time to care for your pet(s). For now, my schedule is entirely open and shall be updated should anything change. Your home, your rules. If you want a certain amount of playtime, I'll be sure it happens. If you don't want them on the furniture, I'll keep them off of it, so on. Your pet will be safe with me and your house rules respected.

I don't have much going on so i can dedicate a lot of love and care to your pets. My complex has a nice park with lots of grass. I also have plenty of time to take your pups on walks around the neighborhood.

Recently unemployed have a very open schedule for this to become a full time job if possible would love to become apart of your family sometime soon. I have a fenced in yard, play pen, and kennels/crates for your pet or a decent play area for your kitty to run around and roam a new to them area.
About: My whole life I have been surrounded by animals. My love for them has inspired me to become a veterinarian. This past summer I have graduated from UC Santa Barbara with a Zoology degree in hopes to get into a vet school. Throughout my time in school and before I have been working with a variety of animals such as seals, raccoons, skunks, dogs, cats, etc. My father currently owns a ranch and I help with the animal care there. My life is very animal-centered and all I care is to ensure their safety and well-being. I am currently free all weekdays and sometimes on the weekends. So I have all the time in the world to focus on your pets and make sure they are well taken care of. Each pet is different and upon first interactions I try to learn their energy levels, how often they need attention, and understanding their body language. From there, I create a schedule that makes the dog most comfortable and content.
About: I have been a pet owner and lover for almost my whole entire life! I am here to help you with your fur babies and to treat and take care of them as if they were my own family members❤️😊 I am currently a stay at home mom of 3 so I am available day and night, weekdays and weekends as well. Taking off on a trip? Don’t worry I got you! Needing a sitter for a few hour’s ? I’ll be home! Your pet’s well-being means the world to me. In your home or mine, I provide a warm, loving space where they feel safe and cherished. With two dogs and four cats of my own, I know the joy and comfort pets bring. I treat every animal like family.. listening to their needs, honoring their routines, and giving them the gentle care they deserve while you’re away.
About: I’ve had dogs in my life since I was born. I have taken care of dogs for friends that go out of town since I have been in elementary school. I have plenty of time to take care of dogs and will have an open schedule for a while! I’m excited to meet the pups! I have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood to take the dogs on walks! I live near the water and would love to accommodate any of your dogs needs!
About: I’ve lived in a home with a large dog since I was 13. I adopted my first dog 2 years ago and in that time I’ve completely turned him around; he’s learned reliable recall, how to walk on a lead, and has mastered close to 30 tricks! I’ve also worked in exotic animal husbandry and spent time training exotics which helped me learn a lot of skills I can apply to dogs! I currently work full-time but the hours vary. I’m usually available in the afternoon-early evening (~12-5pm), and then after 8pm. I’m off every Saturday-Sunday so I have plenty of time to help care for anyone’s furry friends as needed! I’ll be sure to follow any specific safety instructions you leave. I’d be happy to take your dog out and for as many walks as you and they desire. They won’t be let off the leash unless specifically mentioned that it’s safe to do so, and I’ll use any and all safety equipment that you like (harness, prong collar etc). I feel comfortable crating dogs when left alone if that is preferred.

This was our first time leaving our fur babies with someone that isn’t family and I really appreciate how kind and communicative Kyra was! She took our directions and was kind whenever I would bombard with questions about our cats, I’ll definitely be booking again! :)
