“Jaden is such a professional. She did a wonderful job taking care of our little dog and kitten. She stayed over and left everything clean and our babies healthy and well fed. They didn’t seem so mad that we were gone. I’d call her again in a heartbeat!”
“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.”
“She was Awesome!!! My dog Saddie doesn't take well to many people, especially when there new. She had her sitting and giving her attention with in the first 5 minutes. She communicated with me and sent pictures. Very great experience with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone. Thank you Grace your appreciated.”
About: Hi, I’m Dominie! I offer loving home-style boarding with 2 daily walks and plenty of updates. Your dog will feel right at home. My pet care journey began with two amazing dogs- Lucky (a Lab) and Mills (a pug-chihuahua mix) whom I cared for daily over 3 years. From walks to meals, playtime to cuddles, I became part of their world and realized how much I truly enjoy caring for animals. What sets me apart is the personalized care & constant companionship your dog will receive. I work from home, so your 🐶 will never be left alone. I’m also flexible with drop-off and pick-up times to fit your schedule. Need help with transport? I offer convenient pick-up and drop-off for a small mileage-based fee. Just sit back and I’ll handle the drive! 🚗🐾 Pet care fits really well into my daily schedule since I work from home. I have the flexibility to take pets out for walks, play, or potty breaks throughout the day. I have a gated front yard that’s great for safe, supervised outdoor time. A typical day looks like: 🐾Morning walks around 7am to start the day with energy and excitement. 🐾Potty breaks every 2 hours. 🐾Midday play sessions during my work breaks (I’m always up for a game of fetch!) 🐾Evening walks around 6pm to wind down the day. 🐾Plenty of snuggles, affection, and supervision. Whether your 🐶 is playful or prefers a chill day indoors, I adapt to their needs and comfort level. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away.
“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: Since I was born, I have been around animals, and dreamed to work with them and take care of them. I went to school ar SJVC to become a Veterinary Technician, so I have developed skills on how to administer medications. I have watched over my friends pets, whether dogs, cats, rabbits, etc. I am comfortable around all sorts of animals, be them furry, feathery, or scaly. I am currently working part-time at Ross Dress for Less and volunteer at M.A.R.E when free and, so I have a flexible schedule to pet-sit or even walk your furry family members. I provide a safe, and calm environment for the care of all animals, will provide daily walks as needed. If needed, can help with crate training new puppies.
“Our pup, Tilly, was happy with Jess and so are we. He took her for her walks and the neighbors who ran into him and Tilly said that he was great. Upon our return, the house was neat and clean. Can't get much better. Will definitely use Jess again.”
About: I have been a pet lover since I was a little girl. I have recently retired from a 26 year teaching career and starting Vet Tech classes in the Fall. I am also on the Board of Directors for EMAS (Emm & Mal’s Animal Sanctuary) a local non profit that fixes dogs in underserved communities. I also have 3 dogs of my own and a cat that I rescued from my school campus. My dogs are active in Canine Activities such as Dock Diving, Barn Hunt and Flyball. My girl Laken has 2 Trick Titles she earned by the time she was 1 yr old. I know it is difficult to be away from your pets and I want to show them the love and attention they deserve in your absence. I am retired and have time outside of my daily training with my dogs to provide services for you and your pets. I look forward to working with you and your fur babies. My dogs have access to my home and yard. My 19 week old puppy is crate trained and loves her crate at night. I understand some people have restrictions of keeping pets off of furniture and beds and that rule would be honored if that’s your wish. My doggies have their own places on the couch and bed when we are relaxing at home.
“Kat is amazing. She truly cares for the animals she watches. We have a 2yo golden retriever (very energetic and pushes boundaries). Kat worked so well with her! She trained Ellie while also showing her lots of love and affection. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our girl. Thank you, Kat!”

“Rover (Andy) did such a great with all of our pets. Our elderly dog, Dutchess, took well to him and trusted him and she followed him around the house.

About: I’ve had at least 5 years of experience sitting for friends and family. I’m going to college and studying to be a Veterinarian. I volunteer at Kern County animal shelter, and my main task is cleaning puppy cages, so I have no problem getting my hands dirty. I am a college student at CSUB, studying to be a veterinarian. During the Summer, I have a lot of free time while still maintaining good availability during the school year. Even if I have classes, I would still be able to check on an animal every day. I make sure to remove anything that could potentially harm an animal (Sago Palm for cats) and if they enjoy going outside, to always have them on a leash and in my sight.

Stockdale Estates pet parents share their Rover experiences
We had an excellent experience with Julie! She kept us well-informed with regular updates and sent fantastic pictures of our pup, which really put our minds at ease. Her communication was prompt and clear, and she was always punctual, arriving exactly when promised. Our dog was happy and well-cared for, and we could tell he had a great time. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive dog sitter!
Being my first experience using this method it was wonderful. I will likely recommend to anyone. She took care of my dogs very well, she is very responsible person and friendly. I will recommend her to anyone. I definitely will request her name time. Thank you very much for the help.
We recently entrusted our dogs, Amber and Bella, to Shannon for two days, and we couldn't be happier with her service! As this was our first time leaving our pups, we were understandably nervous. However, Shannon eased our worries by being punctual and highly communicative throughout our time away. She sent us adorable pictures of Amber and Bella, which truly made us feel at ease. It was clear that our dogs were in great hands. We highly recommend Shannon for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you, Shannon
