About: Your dog is more than a pet — they’re family. We provide a warm, loving, and secure environment where your furry friend feels safe, happy, and cared for. Whether you’re away for a day or a week, you can rest easy knowing your dog is in trusted hands, getting belly rubs, playtime, and the personal attention they deserve. Because peace of mind isn’t a luxury — it’s a promise. Consider me as your on-call pet sitter. I have currently moved to California all the way from the east coast. Whenever you need me, I’m here ! How I Care for Pets in Your Home – With Safety, Trust, and Comfort at the Heart of It All When I care for your pets, whether I’m house sitting, walking them, or simply dropping in, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has a unique routine, personality, and needs — and I take the time to learn and follow your instructions closely to ensure they feel secure and loved in your absence. In your home, I maintain a calm, respectful presence, keeping your pet’s environment clean, stress-free, and familiar. I provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, medication (if needed), and gentle companionship, always with an eye on their behavior and well-being. For drop-ins and walks, I show up reliably and treat your pet like my own — keeping them on safe routes, away from hazards, and paying close attention to their body language and comfort. I always prioritize secure leash handling, water breaks, and positive reinforcement. Your trust means everything to me, and I care for your pets and home with professionalism, love, and integrity.

“April was amazing! Super friendly, and Mabel was exhausted and had a blast. I knew Mabel had a great time because after I picked her up she went back to April for a few more cuddles. I will definitely let Mabel stay there again!”


“Noel and Martha were absolutely wonderful! Their home is perfect for fur babies and our 7mo pup had an amazing time. He was exhausted by the end of the day after all the fun and play. They kept us updated throughout the day and sent plenty of photos showing him playing, eating, and relaxing. It was such a blessing to have peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of and enjoying himself at that. We highly recommend and will definitely rebook in the future!”

“Triba is amazing! She loved peanut and made peanut feel safe and comfortable. This eased our anxiety too and we will definitely be working with Triba again soon!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, and I've always had the responsibility of taking care of them. I've cared for family dogs and I help my daughter with the care of dogs and cats. I like to make dogs feel at home. I don't work, I'm always at home, and if I have to go out I always take the dog with me; it gives me time to take him out to do his business, play with him, and he always feels accompanied. I live in an apartment with a garden where they can relieve themselves and a gated parking area, but I still prefer taking them to the park to walk and play.
“Janelle is amazing, i got stuck without my dog care for me dog John late on a Sunday evening, I sent Janelle a request upon learning of my dilemma. Janelle responded and i was able to deliver John the next morning. My John loves Janelle and her family and looks forward to his stay with her. Janelle service is awesome and is the only person that I trust John with. Janelle is the best!”

“Sean & Jill were amazing! My dog Mia had a wonderful time at their place with their two dogs! After meeting them I knew she would be well cared for and safe! I highly recommend them!!!”

“Debra was a wonderful sitter for TJ. She sent frequent updates, photos and videos. TJ loved her dog Max. I’m always know if TJ has had a good day with plenty of exercise by the way he crashes at night. Thank you Debra and Max for a wonderful day care day for our TJ.”

“Hoaran was so attentive to my pup and kept me up to date for the whole stay. She was extremely accommodating to last minute inconveniences in our travel. Kona enjoyed her stay and came home very fulfilled!! Will definitely book again!!!”

About: I have been a pitbull pet owner for 25 years with multiple dogs. I work from home and can provide the best care and attention to your pet. I work from home and love taking walks around my neighborhood. I am a trusted professional, and mom who can be depended on to meet your pet's needs. I believe in walking dogs and playing frisbee. Getting good exercise. I'm highly dependable to meet your needs. My dog loves her belly rubs. She loves being outside in our big backyard.

About: If you’re looking for a massive dog lover to look after your fur baby, I’m your person! I have tons of experience with all kinds of breeds from tiny couch potatoes to giant balls of energy. I do everything from quick daily walks, drop ins, or full overnight stays. I pride myself on being reliable, communicative, and I will always treat your pet like they're my own. I recently finished my BFA and I am currently on the job hunt, so my schedule is super open! I love the outdoors and try to get out as much as I can so for doggos we will be getting lots of exercise, dog sitting and walking is exciting for me because it gives me more reason to get outside! I am a designer so when I am working, generally thats indoors so kittys would get tons of company from me! I wakeup early in the morning so I would be able to do the early morning feedings and walks. I also wind down at night on the earlier side, just reading or watching tv, so your animal would have a peaceful nighttime experience with flexibility for late night walks if it is desired by the dog. Whether I am hosting your pet in my home or visiting yours, my top priority is maintaining a consistent and safe routine that makes them feel secure. I am lucky to live right by multiple local parks and a dog park, so I can easily incorporate social time and outdoor play into our daily schedule, or my friend has a fenced in yard she has approved I would be able to use for playtime if your dog doesn't get along with other dogs. For dogs who love to explore, I’m a big fan of walks especially through the beautiful trails around Savannah. I think it’s the perfect way to get plenty of fresh air and exercise! I know most cats would stay in their own space as they are more of home bodies, but in any space, I will treat your kitty as my own!
About: I’m a responsible, caring and loving dog lover. Your pet will feel safe and will be happy in my home with a fenced in yard. I’m working as real-estate agent/home stager and work out of my home with a flexible schedule. I love to go on long walks or take them to a park. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door. I have a one year old friendly, professionally trained soft wheaten who loves company to play with. We have balls, chew toys and treats. I go on long walks with them every day. It’s a pleasure having another playmate.
“Dyan does great with our pup Flynn! From the picture updates he looks very comfortable and having a good time. I know he is in good hands and will be getting plenty of his energy out walking and playing. We are excited to use her for our long vacation coming up!”

About: My fiancé and I are lifelong dog lovers and share our home with Maple, our friendly golden retriever. I work from home full-time, which allows me to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day in a calm home environment. I trained Maple myself, and she has earned her Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certification. Because of this, I value structure, consistency, and good manners, and our home is best suited for well-trained adult dogs that enjoy a calm household environment. I specialize in caring for social, house-trained dogs in a low-volume setting. Unlike larger boarding environments, I typically only accept one client at a time, allowing dogs to receive individualized attention, regular outdoor breaks, daily walks, and a comfortable place to relax throughout their stay. I have experience with large breeds including golden retrievers and labs, as well as senior dogs that benefit from a quieter and more personalized environment. Cleanliness, safety, and reliability are very important to me, and I strive to make each dog feel comfortable and at home while maintaining structure and routine. Because I work from home during the week, dogs are rarely left alone and are able to follow a calm and consistent daily routine. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, outdoor time, walks, rest throughout the workday, and attentive supervision during their stay. I intentionally keep bookings low-volume so each dog receives individualized care and a quieter environment than a traditional boarding setting. My schedule is best suited for adult dogs that are comfortable settling in a home environment during the day and are accustomed to a consistent routine. Safety, consistency, and a calm environment are very important in our home. Because I only take a limited number of dogs at a time, I’m able to provide attentive supervision and maintain a structured routine throughout each stay. Dogs are always leashed outdoors since our yard is not fenced, and I prioritize slow, thoughtful introductions to help dogs feel comfortable and successful in the home. Maple is friendly and social with visiting dogs and settles quickly after introductions. To ensure a good fit for everyone, I typically accept dogs that are: • house trained • crate trained • friendly with people and other dogs • able to settle calmly indoors • on a consistent feeding schedule Dogs are welcome on furniture, can sleep in my room or in their crate, and are treated like part of the household while maintaining structure and supervision.
South West dog parents share their Rover experiences
Klaudia and her crew welcomed our anxious pup for daycare and he came home happy and actually seems to a bit less reactive to other dogs after a day with Winston and Bruno! Klaudia checked in several times and sent photos, which we loved, showing Loofy getting lost of attention. We're looking forward to doing an overnight in the near future.

Noel and Martha were absolutely wonderful! Their home is perfect for fur babies and our 7mo pup had an amazing time. He was exhausted by the end of the day after all the fun and play. They kept us updated throughout the day and sent plenty of photos showing him playing, eating, and relaxing. It was such a blessing to have peace of mind knowing he was being taken care of and enjoying himself at that. We highly recommend and will definitely rebook in the future!
