“Jaden was awesome. She accompanied every request we had quickly and with ease. She took many great pictures and followed directions perfectly, as well as monitored our pets' health while dropping in. Will book eith her agai.”


“I had the best first experience using the Rover app all because of Kayla. Her calm demeanor made my dogs and cats trust her almost immediately. She was incredibly thorough through the first initial visit and knew all the right questions to ask if I missed something. I will absolutely be rebooking with her. Incredibly happy that I have a trustworthy babysitter because that’s what she is. An incredible babysitter for my fur babies!”


“This was my second time using Linda. Just like the first time she took care of my cats, Linda's communication, attention to detail, friendliness and reliability were outstanding. I'm so glad I have someone as wonderful as Linda to take care of my kitties when I'm away from home.”


About: I have taken care of many different species of animals since I was a child; such as birds, cats, dogs, fish, hamsters, and rabbits. I can provide senior care as well. My neighbors, friends, and family members have relied on my service over the years. I am currently unemployed so I can focus on my time on your beloved pet any day of the week. I don't need very much notice to take care of your pet. I try to maintain the same environment that your pets are used to. I will stay on the same meal time schedule that they are normally on. Same with potty breaks and walks.

“Marci was incredible with our girl Eris. It was very clear from the pictures that our girl LOVED spending time with Marci. We will absolutely book her again when we have another trip!”


“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Whitney was fantastic! Super attentive and friendly—she kept me updated with photos and messages throughout each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind. Communication was seamless, and it was clear she really cared about making sure the pups were comfortable and happy. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!”


“Breanna was great with my Millie dog. I was very apprehensive to book drop-in doggy visits because my Millie dog can be protective and not welcoming to anyone new in her yard and house. Breanna let Millie warm up to her on Millie's terms and Breanna even brought some of her doggies to play with Millie, with permission of course. I will definitely book drop-in visits with Breanna again for Millie. Thank you Breanna, you have made this stressful situation for us seamless and uneventful. Millie looks forward to having you stop by again especially if you bring one of your doggies to play.”


About: I’ve been caring for pets for a few years, mostly for close friends and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just keeping them company while their family is away, I’ve always treated pets as my own. I often help with housesitting and babysitting as well, so I’ve learned to also juggle multiple responsibilities. I’m currently home for the summer from college, although as back to school season starts, my last day in Bakersfield will be September 15th. With no current academic commitments, I am able to build my daily routine around the pets I care for! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always do my best to keep their routines as normal and comfortable as possible. I’m not afraid to ask clarifying questions about your pets to ensure I am giving them the best care. :)

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.

“Time and time again, consistently dependable. When you have Callie, you know things will be just right. You can go on vacation take a nap and have one less thing to worry about. It’s priceless, honestly.”


About: Hey pawrent! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over twelve years of hands-on experience in pet care. I currently live with three dogs, two cats (who I love dearly despite my allergies!), and I’ve also cared for other companions such as a parrot, a horse, and two sheep. I know every pet is unique, and my top priority is to create calm, positive experiences tailored to fit each animal’s needs and personality. Whether you have a playful puppy, a wise senior dog, or a nervous rescue, I’ll meet them with patience, kindness, and respect. I’m happy to follow your care routine closely, and I’m always open to learning new tools, techniques, or routines that will help me care for your beloved pet the way they deserve. Skills & Experience: -12+ years of experience feeding, grooming, entertaining, and caring for animals -Experienced with dog, cat, parrot, horse, and sheep care -Seniors: administering pills, special dietary needs -Puppies: frequent potty breaks, redirecting nipping/chewing -Familiar with behavioral challenges, especially dog reactivity and body language cues -Basic training skills such as wait, sit, down, and paw -Knowledgeable about pet safety: resource guarding, grooming do’s/don’ts, calm handling -Optional photo & behavior updates for pet parents who want to stay in the loop -Always respectful of your preferences, happy to give space or stay in close contact I am a part-time student, but since it is summer break, I have a lot of free time. I care for my grandma most weekdays, so I'm usually unavailable around her meal times. But other than that, I am usually available from 1pm to 6pm, and 7pm to 12am on weekdays. Weekends are the most flexible for me. Please don't hesitate to check with me. If you let me know your plans, I can usually modify my schedule to accommodate yours. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort. I follow the client’s instructions carefully, whether that’s a checklist, a routine, or specific steps for entering and locking up. While this is certainly a fun job, it is a job I also take seriously. I strive to treat you, your pet, and your house with the utmost respect. I know that having a new person in the home can be stressful for some pets. I adjust my body language and tone to match what they need; some pets want excitement and affection right away, while others prefer a quiet presence and space to warm up. I never force interactions and always build trust at their own pace. I carefully observe your pet’s body language and give them the kind of presence they need to feel safe, whether that’s gentle head pets, playtime, or just existing with them. I’m especially mindful of reactive or anxious pets and will always give them the space and patience they deserve. To me, trust is built by respecting your pet’s unique boundaries and needs without judgment.

“Heidi took good care of my dog. Guala has just gotten spayed and I needed someone to watch her while I left town, Heidi watched her and gave her medicine. She updated me with messages and pictures, and my baby looked so happy. Her house was clean and looked safe for my dog. She is the most trustful person to leave your pets with. I am so happy with the care that she provide and now I know who to leave her with next time.”


About: With years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets, I provide loving, reliable attention while you’re away—treating your furry family like my own. I’m studying to be a vet tech, attend college three days a week, and train at a clinic yet I’m flexible and committed to pet care. I prioritize safety, create a calm and loving environment, and treat every pet with care and respect earning your trust every step of the way.

“Jeanette is local to me and was very pleasant and easy to talk to. We have cameras so I was able to track her visits and watch her spend time with the dogs. Our agreement was to just feed my 2 dogs twice a day, but she went above and beyond. She brought my mail and packages into my garage and spent time playing with our German Shepherd and Beagle. She was "on Task" and on time every day. I would definitely use her again.”


About: Animals have always been a strong love of mine. Not only have I been a dog owner from the age of 3 and own 6 furbabies of my own, I have also been a horse owner, avid equestrian, and a 4H sheep owner that won Reserve Grand Champion 2 consecutive years showing them at the Kern County Fair. Providing the same love and care to your pets as I do my own is my top priority. Our pup’s didn’t earn the nickname of Man’s Best Friend out of nowhere and they deserve to be cherished, even when you need time away from home. I have experience in all ages and conditions including but not limited to: -New pups -Old pups -Blind pups -Diabetic pups I currently work full-time as a medical scribe with the goal of becoming a Physician Assistant. The great part? My workday starts early and ends early, leaving me with the perfect early morning, afternoon, and evening hours to dedicate to pet care. Daily walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles all fit smoothly into my routine, and I love having that quality time with pets after a busy morning. Weekends are even more flexible, which allows for longer stays, extra play, or extended house sitting when needed. Caring for animals brings a great balance to my week—and a lot of joy too! I treat your space with the same respect I treat my own. I keep things tidy, follow all routines to the letter, and make sure your pet feels safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. I keep you updated with daily pics, videos, and little notes on how your pup is doing! When walking, I’m big on safety—leash rules, paw checks, water breaks, and always watching for dog’s body language. My goal is a happy, tired, and content pet after every visit.
