“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!”

The updates and photos of Melo's happy moments during my absence were heartwarming. I'm grateful to have found a sitter who genuinely cares for Melo's well-being. Highly recommended!”

10. Daniel 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.


11. JABRIL F.
“Jabril has kept our dogs and they were very happy when we returned from our trip. He is a very caring and responsible man and Lucas especially seemed to like him—and Lucas is a very strict judge of character!! We would definitely call Jabril if we need someone to take care of Lucas and Lola.”


12. Ellie G.


“Ellie was phenomenal! She was attentive and thoughtful from the initial meet and greet. Made the process beyond easy, and we felt at ease leaving our pups in her capable care. We will without a doubt rebook her for our next getaway!”


13. Daisy F.

“I've know daisy for years and I never met anyone who had so much love for pets then her. Pets that aren't even hers to top it off. She is the most kind, warming person, and above all, very patient. Since I have known her, she is the type to great a dog when she sees one approaching her simply because she enjoys it. No doubt you will love having your pet around her because she's very nice and playful with dogs that she treats them as if they were her own.”


14. Starleen R.
“Starleen is great with dogs. She took care of pet really well when I left out of town for a couple of days. She’s very kind & patient, highly recommended!”


15. Joel A.
“I can’t stress enough how great Joel was with my dog. He constantly answered all questions and concerns while I was away. My dog is full of energy and to say the least he misses being at the care of Joel. Excellent service and will return for any doggy care needs in the future. He was with him for 2 weeks while we were at our honeymoon.”


16. Arlette R.
“Arlette is an exceptional pet sitter! She looked after my cat and dog with so much love and care while I was on vacation. She kept me updated with pictures and messages, which made me feel at ease. My pets were relaxed and happy when I returned, thanks to her attentive and professional care. I highly recommend Arlette to anyone in need of a reliable pet sitter!”

“Daniel is responsible and loving with pets. He trained our family pup and I've recommended him to family members and many friends. Daniel is the best! 😁”




18. Chell M.

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.

“Marian has the passion, time, space, heart and energy to be the bed dog caregiver there is. She cares for my dog while I am at work. Every time my dog hear her voice he jumps out my hand, and is so excited to play in Marian huge yard.”
