“Great job.”


2. Ivette E.
“Absolutely amazing dog sitter! She took the time to get to know my dog’s needs and personality and went above and beyond to make sure he was comfortable and happy. She's a great communicator, reliable, and truly cares about the animals in her care. My dogs absolutely loved her, and I could tell they were in great hands. On top of all that, she is incredibly clean and organized, which makes everything so easy and stress-free. I’m so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and loving. Highly recommend!”

About: Well what I can said. I'm a really outgoing person who likes the outdoors, I enjoy long walks I like to hike, the beach. I like to explore new things. As a new mother I like to take care of details and I go beyond any expectations. I can bathe the dog if it it ok with any person. My house is really small but I know that every dog would feel comfortable staying here. I can feed them any medication if they need any. Over all about my self I really outgoing person that likes to get along with others I'm fun, silly, happy, and I'm also a grown woman with a mind of a child that would love any activity. Please feel free to get to know me. I'm a stay home mom so I have plenty of time to take care of any dog. And play with them. And give them attention. I have a small fenced yard. Where the dog can run around without any inconvenience. And I will also take them for a walk to the park.

“I've know Mayra my whole life literally, she is the most loving, selfless and caring person I know. Her love for people is great but her love for animals is out of this world! She refers to her fur babies as her kids, & sometimes I think she's talking to her baby nephew because of how she baby talks them but really she's talking to her fur babies lol. I can assure you she makes sure her babies are well fed and if one gets just a little sick she does everything in her power to make sure her babies get/feel better. She has her own pets but she if she sees a dog or cat on the street she will go out of her way to make sure it has food and water. I think she'd be a great pet caregiver because she loves all animals and doesn't treat any differently even if she isn't the owner.”


6. Katelyn J.
“Katelyn use to watch my Frida overnight when I would go out of town for business trips. My frida was always so excited to see her and play. Every time I would get back to pick her she seemed relax and a little sad to leave. That made me feel so safe because Frida took a strong liking to her. Katelyn, was also to my surprise able to give Frida her oral medication with ease she had really bad allergies. Frida hated to take the medication it was always a challenge but Katelyn was able to do it. I was always jealous of that. I know leaving your baby with someone else for the first time is scary but it's not when you know they are in great hands.”


7. Saniah B.
“Saniah loves dogs! We call her the dog whisperer because she thinks she knows dogs so well! She will care for a dog on the street, pet and random dog she can find if they let her!”

About: I’m very excited to work with you!🌈🌻💛 I've been caring for a variety of animals ever since I started high school. I love them so much, I'm dedicating my life to saving each and every one I can as I study to become a veterinarian :) I have experience from high school and college as well as personal experience with animals of my own. I’ve interned with veterinarians in my previous studies and continue to pursue my passion in advanced animal science college classes. From cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, rodents, donkeys, pigs, and even the goats at the LA zoo — I’ve learned a lot! 。:゚૮ ˶ˆ ﻌ ˆ˶ ა ゚:。 I care for my pets as precisely as I possibly can depending on their needs. Considering I have experience caring for senior dogs and have one of my own, I am very familiar with the strict diets and medical needs. I would say senior dogs are my specialty, so if you’re looking for a trustworthy sitter to look after your golden girl or boy you’ve come to the right gal😎 I only have an on campus class on Friday, for which I'm usually gone 5 or 7 hours depending on the commute home - so due to this I do not board dogs with intense separation anxiety. For long boarding stays, dogs can be provided frequent potty breaks but it is advised they can handle being alone long hours for those particular days! For in home stays, walks, and daycare visits I attach an Apple Air Tag connected to my phone onto pets' collars during their stay/walk as well as a tag with my contact info in case of an emergency. As long as the collar is on, I'd be able to find a lost pet anywhere, I take safety very seriously! 。:゚૮ ˶ˆ ﻌ ˆ˶ ა ゚:。 I also have a Wyze camera and relatives who work from home so any doggies staying home if I’m out will always be watched :)

“Jabril takes Inti for great walks. It’s been easy to communicate & set up service! Thanks so much!”


11. Alicia P.
“I have known Alicia P. for 10 years. She is a very nice person that loves pets. She had a dog a few years ago and I could see how she used to take care of her dog. Last summer I had an emergency and Alicia P. a took care of my dog Panchito for two months. Alicia loves Panchito and Panchito loves her as well. I would ask her again to take care of Panchito because she took him to his grooming appointment, and fed Panchito. I received Panchito in very good condition. Thank you, Jose P.”

About: THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING TO BOOK WITH ME as this is not only something I love to do but also how I make a living. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15, I’ve watched my neighbors, family and friends pets when ever they have gone out of town. At one point I had about 10 dogs in my home, my parents were not thrilled at the time but I was able to maintain balance and peace. I can’t stand seeing mistreated or roaming dogs, I always think there is some family out there crying over their lost pet and it drives me crazy. My wife and I have flexible schedules and mostly work from home making it possible for us to tend to your pups all day for extra attention, love, cuddles and play. We also provide updates along with pictures and videos. We aim for an environment where our pet guests feel safe and comfortable so your pet is more than welcome to roam my home freely and even allowed on furniture if permitted and house trained. I have plenty of house and yard space as well as 4 dogs of my own who love and enjoy meeting new friends.

About: Please take the time to completely read my profile before contacting me. Thank you! Can I just say I love dogs!!! I have been rescuing pets for quite awhile, and have placed many stray dogs in loving homes, so I've definitely have come across many personalities. I’m the crazy person that hits the breaks, parks my car in the middle of an intersection to rescue that injured dog everyone seems to pass by. I’m the one trying to stop traffic on the freeway to lure that dog that mistakenly walked in the middle of the road or perhaps someone might have dumped. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and most of my training comes from there. Please know that your pup will be in good hands. I'm not a professional trainer, but have been successful in training dogs commands such as sit, lay, roll over, shake, spin, and kiss. I can administer meds, feed, and play with your dog in my large backyard. I have a large back yard where your pups can run wild back and forth. I don’t have any toxic plants or anything that will harm your dog. My house is fenced, so be assured your pup won't escape (unless he/she jumps fences) Sometimes I will include a surprise during your pups stay. **I passed an enhanced background check, not just a basic background check, so you can feel secure with your pups staying with me. If you're not ready to book with me just make sure that when you book someone, the badge displayed on the profile is gold. I would not like to read another horror story about any sitters, this is not to scare you, but to make you wary of anyone you come in contact with. Dogs are awesome and they fill your life with love, loyalty, and plenty of reasons to smile, so you need to always be protective of them.** I will treat your pups as if they are my own and give them so much love!! Most of the time you won’t see behind the scenes but I promise you, your pup will enjoy his/her stay. I will provide them with a huge bed AKA as a human bed, in case they hate crates. However, I won't provide dog food or treats, but have many bowls and toys that they can use. I also have a dog stroller in case your pup hates the leash :) Be prepared to bring your pups food, treats, meds (if any), favorite blanket/toy, and crate (if any). The important thing is that your pup feels safe and comfortable. If your pup is on a special diet, you need me to cook food, or feed by hand please let me know beforehand. I want you to feel comfortable when you drop off your fur baby, so please communicate with me, and let me know what your pup loves, and dislikes. Communication is key! I will be sending as many updates as I can and please forgive me if I don’t due to assignment deadlines but I will be watching your dog close to me at all times. DISCLAIMER: I do not do meet and greets due to the uninsurability in Rovers policy. Rover Guarantee only applies to paid bookings. For more information refer to their website. I apologize in advance for any inconvenience. Why the high boarding fees? Rover deducts a high percentage of the entire booking. Rover Guarantee also charges $250 as a deductible in case anything happens during your pups stay. Many incidents aren’t covered, which leaves the sitter and the owner to accept full liability. If you have any questions, please reach out to Rover, so they can better explain the terms and conditions. I'm currently a student and most of my work is done online. I will be sending as many updates as I can and if you don’t get a fast response from me I can assure you, your pup is probably laying at my feet or is on my lap being pet. My siblings are here to help as well, so be assured that your pups won't be unattended and will receive lots of belly rubs. I have a fenced yard and can easily crate your dog if that's your style of training. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. Please let me know your dogs routine, so I can follow as well. I usually take them out for a potty break every 2-4 hours. They will get all their exercise in my large backyard. There is always fresh water available in multiple rooms and so many toys they can play with and destroy (with supervision) :D If your pup isn't potty trained, then I will make sure to place pads around the house, and will suggest to get diapers or I can provide them too.

16. Luz G.
“Luz is an amazing dog sitter. She definitely gave me reassurance while she was taking care of my babies. Once they met her, it was like they fell in love with her! She’s watched them a couple times and each time it’s always a very positive experience. I would definitely recommend her to anyone here on the Rover app. I promise you will not regret it!”


17. Marco H.
“If there is anyone I’d trust with my pets it would be Marco ! He’s helped me with my dogs many times! I remember when Marco and I took our dogs to the dog park and it was Buddy’s first time there, my German shepherd. Immediately going in buddy started barking and had both him and me surrounded by all the other dogs and I couldn’t get buddy to calm down and stop barking so I had to take him out of the dog area. Marco asked me if he could give it a try so I went in with his dog Bella, a chihuahua mix, and watched him try it out. Marco was able to get Buddy to stay calm and start socializing with the other dogs. Allowing Buddy to have a good first time at the dog park! Marco is amazing with dogs. He’s very kind, caring and passionate and can even train dogs! I have 11 dogs, GSD’s and huskies, and Marco has helped me whenever I had to go out of town for work with taking care of them all. I also call him for training ideas. My dogs love Marco and are always excited to play with him. There is no one I trust more to take care of my pack than Marco!”
