About: Currently have a Terrier Mix doggy of my own. I use to have a Pitbull Mix but he passed away few years ago. I have experienced with senior dogs and can administer oral medications. My availability is very flexible on the weekends, whether it’s mornings, afternoon, or evenings. I can do check-in/ drop-in visits or pet sit for you at your convenience. Please let me know your pet’s feeding, walking, potty routine to accommodate their needs. I can provide you with photos throughout the day or evening! :)

Isabella was beyond incredible with my four-year-old husky. She took the time and effort to make sure my husky was well stimulated and exercised. Isabella is great at communication, sending photos and updates throughout the day. She also took care of my house and followed the rules. Isabella also went above and beyond and helped Nyra get more comfortable being in a crate. I highly recommend her services!!

About: I've had two dogs and a cat in my lifetime. I also have 2 years of pet sitting experience for some of my family friends! I have trained my two dogs and can spend hours playing with animals! I am currently unemployed, and searching for work, so my schedule is flexible, and I am looking for ways to make some extra money! I thought this would be an excellent way. I have an apartment, but it's well kept and has plenty of space for animals to play around. There is also a grassy area outside for dogs to play. As for a clients home, I will always make sure to keep it clean and avoid touching anything that isn't meant for me or your beloved pet.

Michelle was great! It was my first time with Rover, and she was patient and helped me with errors I had made. She also went above and beyond. I was booking last minute, and she went out of her way to do a meet and greet before the dog sitting date. She also asked to take the dog on a short walk, even though she didn’t have to. Would definitely book again with her.

About: For the past 5 years I've pet sat for family and friends, especially during the summer. Many have suggested I venture out to pet sit on the side because they love how I care for their pets. Pets are part of the family and I understand the importance of a trusting pet sitter. Your pets safety and well being will always be my priority! I work full time as an emergency room technician. I work 3 twelve hour shifts a week allowing me to have 4 days out of the week to help clients with any pet care needs! I have the flexibility of offering all day/night services both weekdays and weekends! My priority is the safety and well being of your pet! I thoroughly review all the information provided of your pet and communicate any questions I may have. I make an effort to know feeding schedules, potty preferences and activity schedules before meeting your pet. My goal is make sure your pet feels at home with zero disruption to their routine.

About: Since I was younger I have always been considered the “pet whisperer” by my family. Always loving and training every dog we’ve had (poodle, Pomeranian, yorkie, and Rottweilers). Many are impressed by how well my Rottweilers do on walks because they are well trained and I can have them off leash. I love all dogs and have been caring for dogs since I was 5. My love for animals is also taking me to Arizona to study veterinary medicine! I have a car so I will be able to pick up and drop off with ease if needed. I can care for pets all day! I always stay professional and compassionate despite the location of my pet sitting. I love all animals and I am happy to watch them as needed!

Katherine really helped us out with sitting with Farrah for the day. We had plans to be in San Diego for the day and didn’t want to leave our Farrah alone for a long time due to some separation anxiety. We appreciate Katherine suggesting a meet and greet to go over a few things. During the day we receive pictures with updates which made us feel comfortable and know Farrah was in great hands. We would definitely love to book Katerine again for any future trips.

William was great with the doggos and very communicative. My pup is slow to warm to people so it’s saying a lot that he was patient with her and she was kissing and snuggling him in a short time. Both dogs were sad to see him go!

Madalyn was fantastic with our pup, Midna (who absolutely loved her). She’s highly communicative, showed up on time, very sweet, and knowledgeable. Our pup is very high energy and Madalyn knew exactly how to calmly handle her. We couldn’t be happier to have found her. We highly recommend her.

About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.

Alondra took a good care of my dog for 3 days that I was out of town. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone other than family and she loved Alondra . To me it was very important that my dog feels safe and not anxious when I’m out for few days and I’m glad I found Alondra that could stay with TaTa at my place so TaTa felt so relaxed. 🐶🙏🏻😍
