Brittany did an amazing job caring for my three animals! She was patient but consistent with my dog that had only been left with a sitter one time before. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our babies were in such good hands. She was respectful our home and left it clean for our return. Will definitely use again.

We needed a sitter last minute, a week before a planned trip, due to previous arrangements failing through. Breana was great! She took great care of our dog and was great communicating with us. It is a great feeling when you know your dog is taken care of while you are away.

Lisa took excellent care of our senior Frenchie. Our dog takes doily medication and becomes very anxious when we travel. When we returned from our trip, our dog acted as if we had never been away, and our house was in the same clean condition as when we left.

Mason took care of my Dog and my home as if they were his own. He provided pictures and videos of Shelby on her daily walks. I am very grateful to find such a caring and professional individual, locally, to care for my pup. Thanks Mason!

About: I’ve owned a few dogs growing up and I took care of feeding, bathing, and walking them every day and walks were every other day. I’m off work usually by 4:00, Monday through Friday but have weekends off. Your fur babies are welcome into our home whenever a play date is scheduled or if you need a weekend get away I’m more than happy to come to your home to take care of them. Their comfortability is my #1 priority. I make sure while I am at the owners home I either take their dog(s) on a walk or if there’s a yard go outside and play for 30-40 min to get the zoomies out; then go back inside, feed and relax, outside break one more time before I leave.

About: I’ve been caring for pets as long as I can remember. Growing up we always had animals. Neighbors and family friends have trusted me to feed, walk, bath, and care for their fur babies while they were away! My family has an Irish setter named Lucy and I have a tuxedo kitty named Boo. I love both of them to death! I treat my animals as they are my children and give them all the love and attention in the world, as well as treating every animal as my own child. I’m here to make sure you aren’t worried about your pet while you are out of town, as they will be in good hands! I am currently a full time college student, however all of my classes are online expect two, which meet in person on two days for about an hour. This gives me great flexibility to work with your schedule and needs! I can easily do whatever is needed of me regarding your pets! I assure you I have done it all, such as crating your dog or giving them any sort of medicine.

I have never had anyone dog sit for me before so I was very nervous. Everything went great! The dogs loved her and she sent me pictures of my dogs.

I was really worried about my two girls Rajah and Zoe (boxers). Rajah and Zoe are very attached to mommy and daddy. We don’t leave them that often simply because of age and medical conditions. Rajah and Zoe toke to Brittney when we did a first meet and once again a few days before we left town for the weekend and they were completely comfortable with her and even my cat toke her, and he normally doesn’t take to strangers right away. Brittney responded to my text with in a reasonable amount of time when I messaged her. So, yes we would use Brittney again.

Meredith did a great job with Marley. My dog has some special needs and it's tough to find people confident enough to care for her. She was super accommodating and kept me reassured that she's able to do it. I'll definitely use her again.

About: Hi, I’m Breyanna! I’ve cared for pets nearly my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats of all sizes. While most of the dogs I’ve owned have been small breeds, I’m also comfortable and confident caring for larger dogs. I currently have four Chihuahuas, so I understand how important it is to trust someone who will treat your pets like family. I’m available 24/7, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and overnight stays. I'll always make time for your furry loved ones, whether they prefer alone time or are velcro dogs like my chihuahuas. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, or overnight care, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of your home, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you have complete peace of mind. My goal is to ensure your pets stay happy, relaxed, and well cared for at all times. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets!

This was our first time using Rover & let me just say…any others have big shoes to fill after using Christine. We wholeheartedly trusted her and chose her due to her understanding my sick dog’s needs, and I could just tell she had a kind heart. This is hard to find. Our house was clean and in the same shape we left it, and she even left us a sweet note upon arrival at home. If you are on the fence about booking, let this be your sign to use christine!

Stephanie is outstanding. She started walking our dogs and 2 large breed puppies are not easy but she did great as did her mom Cheryl. They took care of our dogs at my house and I just got back after a week and the dogs are happy and the house is clean. Thank you thank you Stephanie! I will definitely booking you again.

About: I am a current psychology student at GCSC , planning to apply my degree as an animal trainer. I have completed 2 marine mammal training internships and 1 seasonal aviculture position in a professional care setting. Growing up we had cats in the home but I grew up around dogs pet sitting for my childhood neighborhood. Additionally I have worked at a Pet Supplies Plus location gaining exposure to small mammals, reptiles and fish. Outside of school I currently volunteer with Ocean Connections , working with Labrador Retrievers , Macaws and observing California Sea Lions. As a mostly online student I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide services at your convenience! I currently have availability Monday + Wednesdays before 11 or after 12:15 , Tuesdays + Thursdays after 10:15 am & all day Saturday. Currently on Sundays I volunteer with a local animal rescue from 8-1 pm but am able to clear availability if given reasonable time to accommodate! I pride myself on being a diligent individual who takes the safety and integrity of the animals in my care as my upmost responsibility. With experience working in professional care environments checking even the most mundane things twice is second nature to me.

This was Mary's second time helping us out. The girls love her and we love Mary. It's wonderful to have someone who cares so much about the pups and really treats them like her own. It's also very nice to know our home is safe and well cared for while we are gone. Mary's amazing!

Aaliyah, was amazing with our fur babies. She kept us up to date with check in, photos and videos. She took them in daily walks and kept them plenty busy. They enjoyed all the cuddles and we felt at ease while we were gone. Will definitely use her again.
