Kelly was amazing! She was very professional, great to work with and was so good to our animals. This was our first time using Rover, so we were a little nervous at first, but then we met Kelly and our worries disappeared. Kelly exceeded our expectations, we will definitely use her any time we need a pet sitter (as long as she’s available)!

Kayla was wonderful with our 3 pugs. It was obvious from our meet and greet that she is great with animals. Our babies took to her immediately. While we were gone, she sent pictures regularly, which is so important to us when we are away from them. We returned to a clean house and yard and to fur babies that were excited to see us but were not anxious or stressed at all, which means they got plenty of attention while we were away. We've already booked with her again and would 100% recommend her to others.

Savannah exceeded our expectations. Our 3 puppies were so happy with her and fell in love. I got to come home to my puppies who had no anxiety. Can’t wait for her to hang out with them again!

About: I’ve grown up with many cats and different types of dog's. I had a dog that was 19 years old and have been self training my current dog since I got him. Im currently a student at Chico State so I have plenty of time after classes and school. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets after 2pm on most weekdays. I make sure there’s no way to escape or places that can hurt your pet if it gets in those places. I would make sure to be attentive and make sure I know what they’re up to.

About: I’m a dedicated 21 year old dog lover who currently cares for two rescued female puppies. They are friendly and fixed :) Raising young shelter dogs has given me hands-on experience with puppy routines, socialization, basic training, exercise, and lots of patience. I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Growing up, I also owned a Chihuahua and spent time dog walking for others ever since I was a kid, which helped me learn how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with active puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need extra attention and reassurance. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a caring companion while you're away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as a delivery driver, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to stay close to home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I care for my own two young dogs every day, so pet care is already a major part of my routine. When I'm not working, I spend time walking, training, playing with, and caring for them. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care and make sure they receive the attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, dogs have access to a large, securely fenced yard where they can play, exercise, and explore safely under supervision. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet place to relax. If a dog needs their own space, I can separate them using a dog gate and provide a comfortable area in my home where they can rest safely. I always monitor interactions between pets and make sure each dog is comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels at home.

Tatiana did a great job with our 100lb German shepherd, Bash. She is a good communicator and she left our house in better condition than we left it. I feel comfortable that our dog is in good hands with Tatiana.

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.

About: I have owned dogs since childhood and have volunteered at shelters a couple of times. Helping animals in anyway is my passion and I will go out of my way to accommodate to your pets needs. I have only cared for small dogs growing up so I am most comfortable with them. I love animals, growing up I’d want to take in every animal I saw out on the street. Unfortunately that is not suitable for me lol, but I will care for your pet as if it is my own. I enjoy meeting new animals as it can be fun to see how different their personalities present, it also gives me an opportunity to learn and adapt. Please rest assured that they will be in good hands :) I am a part-time student and with summer coming around I am available most week days, including sunday as well. I will be able to attend to your pets from morning to afternoon. But sunday I will be available all day if needed. My schedule is flexible if given a day or two notice. I own one senior chihuahua, attend to stray cats and own fish. With my dog now being a senior, I am able to administrate supplements if needed. I can also attend to other animals in the house if needed. Such as doing water changes for your aquarium or feeding them. I have been a fish keeper for over 3 years. I will do my absolute best to show up however your pet needs.

About: I have over a decade of experience caring for animals, starting from a young age and evolving into a professional career. I have a certificate in Veterinary Assistance, meaning I have a great understanding of animal health, behavior, and safety. I also completed my externship at Kern County Animal Services, where I gained experience in managing a clean environment and administrating medication. I worked at a luxury pet resort, which involved professional bathing techniques, ear cleaning, and skin health checks, so I have a keen eye for your pet’s physical well-being. Whether your pet needs specialized medical monitoring, senior care, or whole lot of playtime, I have the knowledge to ensure they are safe, happy, and pampered while you're away! I have open availability and can dedicate my time to caring for your pets. Monday-Friday, I am available for morning, afternoon, evening, and overnight stays as needed. I can provide walks, drop-in visits, feeding, companionship, and general pet care. On weekends, I am available for walks and drop in visits throughout the day. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care. Using my Veterinary Assistant training, I perform 'nose-to-tail' wellness checks during every visit to monitor for any changes in health or behavior. I stick strictly to your established feeding and medication schedules to maintain your pet's routine. Safety is my priority! I ensure all doors/gates are double checked and that your pet is never left in a hazardous situation.
