“Megan and her family provided exceptional care for Ollie, ensuring he was treated as one of their own. If you are feeling anxious about leaving your pets, rest assured that they are in good hands. I was in a bind and they came through for me. Thank you very much! I will use services again. 😇”
“Great family. I felt very confident leaving my dog, Apollo with them for 5 days. Carrie kept me updated with videos & pictures and his overall behavior. So I knew he was comfortable and happy. I highly recommend this wonderful family. Apollo had a great time.”
About: I used to have 27 cats and 2 dogs in my apartment. Many of them are picked up from the street or sick. After I work with the pet doctor, I training them, and help the autism and mental disabled people and seniors people. I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available on weekends and weeks day. My apartment has no other pet right now! And All the animals like me, and I have so many years experience with pet. I can easily get along with good relationships with your pets.
“We really couldn't have asked for more! We wanted a sitter who would only take one dog at a time and Julie and Maria fit the bill perfectly. They have a spacious home that is set up well for high-energy dogs like our own and we could tell immediately that Riley would get a ton of attention and love. Over the course of a 2-night stay they took him on walks at CSULB as well as two trips to El Dorado dog park. Riley was tuckered out in absolutely the best way after his stay and we will definitely be using their services again!”
“Laura and her family went beyond the expectations to care for our dog, Mars. My dog had separation anxiety and Laura did everything she could to make sure Mars was comfortable and happy. She was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly. I would definitely recommend Laura to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets.”
“Sara took the most incredible care of our pup. We got tons of great pictures of him daily and she provided wonderful updates. We even left with the cutest custom report card on his stay. I would absolutely recommend Sara to anyone who is looking for a great place for their dog!! Thank you Sara and Zoe!”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
“We love Monique and her family. This is our 2nd booking with her and she and her family took Biggie in as their own for a few weeks while we were on vacation. She is always responsive and attentive to Biggie and his needs as a Frenchie. We could tell how happy he was with the pictures and he didn't want to leave when he got picked up. I recommend her to anyone and look forward to see them again and entrusting Biggie in great hands. Thank you so much to Monique and her family. <3 Biggie Ingrid and Patrick”
About: Big heart, gentle hands, and plenty of treats! I’m dedicated to providing a fun, stress-free environment for your pets. Whether it’s long walks or cozy cuddles, your fur baby will be in the best of care with me. Full-time care for your best friend! Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide around-the-clock attention. Our typical day includes cozy indoor playtime and daily neighborhood walks with my baby in tow. It’s the perfect environment for pets who love a consistent routine and a family atmosphere. I can't wait to welcome your pup into our daily adventures! I’m a firm believer that pets are family! When your fur baby stays with me, they get full access to cuddles on the couch and endless yard fun (fenced). If I’m visiting your home, I take pride in being a respectful guest who focuses entirely on keeping your pet happy and tired out. You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!
“I highly recommend Jae and will definitely use her boarding service again. She is knowledgeable on how take care of dogs based on the behavior and made my dog really comfortable during his stay. It made us enjoy being away on our vacation. Her dogs are well behaved. Her house is spacious and her backyard too. It was a plus that my dog liked her kids and got attached to one of them. I appreciate the daily long detailed updates and pictures that she sent. My dog was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. I can tell that he had a great time.”
“This couple is amazing! They are so sweet and gentle and love dogs, your in good hands with them. Always communicating with updates etc. I trust them 100%”
“Big thanks to Sunny for taking care of our pup over a weekend! I dropped Mia off in a rush while on the phone with work (and 15 minutes late)... Sunny was waiting outside for us and took all of Mia's things. Sunny kept us updated throughout the weekend, administered some meds, and kept an eye out on an evolving medical situation. All the while I was confident Mia was getting great care. Thank you, Sunny!”
“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“Fantastic. Marilyn watched our pup throughout the Christmas holiday while we vacationed. He had a better time with her than he would’ve with us! Will absolutely call again.”
“Arriyanna is our go-to sitter! She’s watched Toast three times now—two quick weekend trips and one longer week+ vacation. Each time, Toast comes home happy, healthy, and so tired! Arriyanna always sends photos, very responsive with request, and flexible when my ETA for dropoff/pickup changes.”
“Marlo does a fantastic job with our Burton. We wouldn’t trust him with just anyone. We love that she keeps him active and is very attentive to his needs. I also love that she sends us multiple pictures and videos to keep us updated on his fun times with her.”
“Denise watched our dog for a week over the holidays. She was easily one of the best sitters we’ve ever had. From our first meet and greet, it was clear she was experienced and thoughtful. When we arrived for the meet and greet, she already had water set out and dog toys ready. She asked detailed questions about our dog’s routine and behavior. It was obvious she genuinely wanted to create the best possible environment for him. While we were away, Denise sent more photos and updates than we’ve ever received from a sitter, which we truly appreciated! It helped ease the anxiety I always feel when leaving our dog behind. When we picked him up, he didn’t even seem excited to see us. I’m convinced this was because he was having such a great time that he didn’t want to leave! We will definitely be booking with Denise again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter.”
“Rachel, thank you for always giving my pups the best care and love! Your comfy home is a home away from home. They both always come home happy campers. It is a peace of mind when I am away from my pups. Your the best!!!”

Kim and Matt were great to Jellybean and provided a lot of pictures and updates! Unfortunately Jellybean did not handle being in a new environment well, but it was no fault of Kim and Matt. They continued to provide a lot of walks, attention, and great care to Jellybean despite her unexpected behavior. I would highly recommend Kim and Matt to anyone looking for highly attentive and caring sitters! They are truly the nicest family and I feel absolutely terrible about Jellybean’s unexpected behavior with them. They handled her extremely well and I wish them the best of luck in their dog-sitting endeavors because they’re such wonderful people!
Shannon took care of our nearly 14-year-old chihuahua for a week while we were away on our babymoon, and I truly could not have asked for a better sitter. Our little guy requires lifelong medication twice a day and occasionally experiences seizure symptoms, so finding someone we could fully trust was incredibly important to us. Shannon was absolutely amazing. She stayed perfectly on schedule with his medications, took such great care of his feeding routine, and was very accommodating to all of our requests. She also sent us lots of updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. What impressed me most was how naturally she understood our chihuahua’s personality and needs almost immediately, without us having to explain much at all. It was clear that she genuinely cared for him and made him feel comfortable and loved. I’m so grateful we found Shannon, and she will absolutely be our go-to sitter in the future. Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our precious little guy.💕 We were truly able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing he was in such good hands.
She took such amazing care of my dog for 5 days, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely at ease and when we picked him up, he was so happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. You can tell she genuinely cares and treats the dogs like her own. I’m so grateful to have found her and will absolutely be using her again. This was my first experience with Rover, and leaving my puppy. Highly, highly recommend!
Shona is so great with our pup, Lucy. She is communicative with us and is always taking Lucy for walks and to the park. Lucy also loves her little pup, Fig, who is such a sweetheart. We are grateful to have someone as loving and trustworthy as Shona and we know Lucy enjoys her getaways there as well!
I have left my sweet dogs at Jon’s for years. He and his wife are dog whisperers. They know dogs. They got my tiny very fearful 7 pound dog comfortable with other dogs. That’s something I had been trying to do forever. When I pull up to their house my dogs start getting excited and wagging their tails. They run right up to his door and scratch to get in! I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Kayla watched my dog for an extended stay recently and was amazing. She did a fantastic job of sending me updates throughout my pups stay with lots of pictures included; I could tell from the photos that he settled right in and was very comfortable with her. I will definitely be using her again in the future and would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
