About: Your furry friend is sure to be taken care of when they come to our home! With a family of children, there isn't a lack of the entertaining, special attention and love they will be given. My husband and I have been caring for the cats and dogs of our friends for years and are excited to have you consider us to watch after your fur baby! My schedule allows me to be home most of the day and will be available to watch after your fur baby throughout the day to give them walks, playtime, and potty breaks. Choosing the overnight boarding option? Our family winds down around 10 and are early risers, allowing us to give ample attention to your pet. I have a fenced yard and large area for the dogs to play! I have a pool that is gated off and can either let them near the water, or keep them away; whatever you prefer! I do not have any pets of my own and only book one dog at a time, allowing your dog to feel safe and not have to worry about territorial issues.

“Sylvia is the best ☺️👍”

About: Have had cats and dogs my entire life and have ample experience walking, training and overall taking care of pets keeping them active and healthy. I have afternoon and mid-day available for walking can also fit in some early morning routes. Mainly do this part time and love animals more specifically dogs so it’s a dream to decompress and be around my furry friends. I more specifically focus on dog walking and making sure the dogs walking and getting some exercise and get a change of scenery. This way both the dog and I can have a bit of exercise and bonding experience.

“Vicky is amazing! She took really good care of our pups and was constantly updating how they were doing per our request. We always enjoyed hearing from her and would definitely ask her to walk our pups again!”

“Honestly one of the greatest dog walkers and dog caretaker ever! Melanie is super responsible and very gentle! My puppy is always scared of new people but Melanie really took the time to recognize what our puppy needed and became best friends with our puppy! Melanie is always on time and super diligent about leaving everything where it belongs like our keys, treats, leash and harness. Melanie is very respectful and we and our puppy will always choose her as our dog walker/caretaker!! Thank you Melanie!”

About: Thanks for stopping by! Choosing the right sitter is a big decision, and I truly appreciate you considering me. Being a Rover sitter has been one of my most rewarding experiences. I genuinely love getting to know each pup’s unique personality and treating them like my very own. I can’t wait to meet your pups! What I'll provide: 📸 Lots of updates - I will provide lots of photos/videos during their stay so you have complete peace of mind while you're away. I often take videos of walks and when they're being cute or silly. 🌟 1-1 attention - I typically only host pups from one family at a time. There are no kids or other pets in my home so that means your pups get all the belly rubs, all the walks, and all the couch space in a calm environment. ⏱️ Consistency - I have a flexible work from home schedule so I can follow your care routine and instructions to the letter, including administering oral medication. 🌳 Fun adventures - This is what makes the stay special! Each pup likes to have fun in their own way. 🔹 For social pups, we're lucky enough to live across the street from the dog park so we can go multiple times day and meet new friends. 🔸 For the athletes we'll play fetch at the field. 🔹 For nature lovers we can go on a waterfall hike. 🔸 Whether it’s a stroll to see the neighborhood peacocks, a trip to the local cafe, or just a quiet day of indoor play, I tailor the adventures to what your dog loves most. 🏡 Clean and safe home - We keep a clean home and your pups can explore the whole space. They can also go on the couch or bed if they're allowed. Note: I always prioritize your pups' comfort. If I ever consider taking on another guest during your stay, I will always ask for your explicit consent first! I work from home 4 days a week (sometimes everyday), so weekdays are easy for me. I don’t have many meetings and I have a lot of flexibility in when I do my work. I keep a clean and clutter free home. I live in a single story triplex. The place isn’t too big so I can have eyes on your pets most times. My neighbors don’t have any pets. There’s a dog park across the street if your pet is good with other dogs, otherwise it’s a nice place for a walk!

About: From the time I was a child, dogs have always held a special place in my heart. Growing up, my family welcomed various furry companions into our home, each leaving an indelible mark on my life. It wasn't until three years ago, however, that I embarked on my journey as a part-time dog sitter. It all began when a neighbor, aware of my love for dogs, asked if I could look after their playful Labrador retriever, Bailey, while they were away on vacation. Eager to help and excited at the prospect of spending time with a new furry friend, I eagerly agreed. From the moment Bailey bounded through the door, tail wagging with unbridled excitement, I knew I was in for an adventure. Over the course of that week, we forged an unbreakable bond, spending our days exploring the local park, playing fetch until the sun dipped below the horizon, and curling up together for cozy cuddle sessions. Word of mouth quickly spread, and soon, I found myself inundated with requests from friends and neighbors in need of a reliable and caring dog sitter. Each new furry client brought with them their own unique personality and quirks, from the mischievous terrier who loved nothing more than digging up the garden to the gentle giant who was content to simply lounge in the sunshine. Though my journey as a dog sitter may have started as a humble endeavor, it has blossomed into a deeply fulfilling passion. Each wag of a tail, slobbery kiss, and grateful lick serves as a reminder of the profound joy and love that dogs bring into our lives. And as I continue on this journey, I am grateful for the opportunity to play a small part in enriching the lives of these beloved companions, one tail wag at a time. I’m working and living around SG,Alhambra,Pasadena and Arcadia areas. For weekday,I’d prefer afternoon and evening. For weekends, I’m available all the time! Overall, I’m flexible! In My Home: 1.Safe and Pet-Friendly Environment: I maintain a safe and pet-friendly environment in my home by securing any potentially hazardous items, such as toxic plants or small objects that pets could swallow. I also ensure that all electrical cords are tucked away and inaccessible to curious pets. 2.Supervision and Interaction: Pets in my home receive constant supervision and interaction to ensure their safety and well-being. Whether it's playing in the backyard, going for walks in the neighborhood, or lounging indoors, I provide engaging activities to keep pets stimulated and happy. 3.Comfortable Accommodations: I provide comfortable accommodations for pets, including cozy bedding, toys, and designated areas for eating and resting. I strive to make them feel at home and alleviate any anxiety they may have about being in a new environment. In Client's Home: 1.Establishing Trust: Building trust with both the pet and the owner is essential when caring for pets in their home. I take the time to get to know the pet's routine, preferences, and any special instructions provided by the owner. By maintaining open communication and demonstrating reliability, I aim to establish trust and confidence in my ability to care for their beloved pet. 2.Respecting the Home Environment: I respect the client's home environment by adhering to any rules or guidelines they have in place, such as restrictions on certain areas of the house or specific feeding schedules. I ensure that the home is kept clean and tidy during my visits, minimizing any disruption to the household routine. 3.Ensuring Security: I prioritize the security of the client's home by taking necessary precautions, such as locking doors and windows when entering and exiting the premises. I also remain vigilant for any potential safety hazards or signs of intrusion, reporting any concerns to the client promptly. 4.Maintaining Routine: To minimize stress and anxiety for the pet, I strive to maintain their regular routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding times, exercise schedules, and any other daily rituals that they are accustomed to.

About: I love dogs… of all kinds! That’s an understatement. My boy is Sailor, the Siberian Husky you see in my profile. The other two dogs—Bokee & Penny—are my friend’s dogs that I dog-sit for whenever I’m needed. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with any breed. Your furry friend will love hanging out with Auntie Tamara. I work for myself so I’ll have plenty of time for your fur babies. From feeding to walking to bathing to chilling, your pup and I will be the best of friends. In terms of my house, I have a yard with high walls so Sailor doesn’t even try to go anywhere unless it’s with me. When taking care of my friend’s dogs, they entrust me with their house key so I can come over and watch over the pups (even when they’re older, they’re always puppies in my eyes). When you ask me to dog-sit for you in your home, you can trust me to treat your space with the utmost respect. Same goes for the fur babies. They’re always in good hands with Auntie Tamara.

“Cristina took great care of my senior pup! She is extremely reliable, communicates well, and punctual. During my time away, I felt assured about everything. 💖🙂”

About: What sets me apart is the level of attention and care I give every pet. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else requires trust, so ill make it a priority to keep owners updated with photos, messages, and details about how their pet is doing. Taking the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, sticking to a feeding schedule, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet like a member of my own family. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners by providing reliable, attentive, and loving care every visit. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. As a soccer player, I stay active and enjoy going on runs, long walks, and spending time outdoors, which allows me to provide plenty of exercise and engagement for pets in my care. I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate extra time and attention to each pet throughout the day. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable, safe, and stress-free. Carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise needs, any medication instructions, and any specific preferences provided by the owner.

“Eric is fantastic with my dog, Dexter! He comes by a few times per week mid-day to walk and play with Dexter while I'm at work, and sends me photos and videos of Dexter enjoying his visit. At my request, Eric gives Dexter his daily favorite green treat and wipes his paws after his walks. Communication is quick and easy, and Eric is very trustworthy entering my home and leaving it all locked up once each visit is complete. I'd definitely recommend Eric for any service he provides on Rover. Thanks Eric!! -Ryan”

About: As a former owner of a golden retriever that I've trained myself, I have firsthand experience with the needs and joys of dog ownership. I frequently train my sister’s Carolina dog, which has deepened my understanding of diverse dog behaviors and training techniques. As a runner, I genuinely enjoy walking and running with a variety of dogs, ensuring they get the exercise and engagement they need. This passion for canine care has inspired me to offer my services as a dog-sitter and walker. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your furry friends, making sure they receive the attention and activity they deserve while you’re away. I also do headbutts with cats. I currently work at a co-working space, running a company and I've started a YouTube channel. I work on my own schedule, so I have time to play with and walk/run dogs! I also have had experience taking care of cats. I prioritize maintaining the dog's routine and comfort in their familiar surroundings. Before each visit, I carefully review their instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication administration (if needed), exercise needs, and any specific behavioral considerations. During my visits, I will focus on providing engaging playtime, ensuring sufficient exercise (walks, playtime in the yard, etc.), and plenty of attention and affection. I'll maintain cleanliness by promptly cleaning up any accidents and ensuring the space remains tidy. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that allows the dog to feel safe and happy while you are away
