About: I've taken care of my own cats since I was 10 years old. My first cat was named Taylor but I currently have 2 american shorthairs, Annie and Theresa. I also feed some stray cats in my neighborhood. I've given my own cats oral medication, bathed them, clipped nails, and more. I'm a full time college student but I've still got a lot of free time. I'm available for walks and drop in's Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from early mornings to 5 PM. However, I'm generally unavailable on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I keep my own 2 cats fully indoors. Not a lot of space but I try to compensate by having several areas where they can hide and climb. They each have their own food bowls and share a very large litterbox that's cleaned daily. I working on harness training them so we can go on walks soon so that's exciting!

About: I'm a friendly, reliable person. While dogs are generally my favorite, I also really enjoy cats. I'm happy to love on all of your furry friends while you are away! I generally work short hours as a caregiver, so I have plenty of time to give your furry companions all the love and attention they deserve! I will shower your pets with love and attention, ensuring they continue the feeding, sleeping, and grooming routines that work for you, with plenty of walks to keep them busy!


5. Lora B.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was about 10 years old. Many of our neighbors and family relied on me to check in and make sure their animals are doing well and to take care of them. I am currently a college student and I can pop in at any time in the early morning and in the afternoon after about 1:00 on the week days, except Monday, but I can come at anytime during the weekends. I will make sure that your house is the safest it can be while in my care and make sure that your pets will also be well cared for and make sure that they don’t feel lonely and when you come back it’ll almost be like you were never gone.


6. Lauren H.
About: I have been taking care of dogs, cats and all other kinds of pets for over 8 years. I have worked as a dog groomer for over 4 years. I also have experience with giving medications and shots to dogs and all other kinds or animals. I have lots of personal experience with small animals, horses, reptiles, dogs, and cats. I have cared for animals young and old and I would love to help care for your pets! I also have a lot of experience taking care of many different types of house plants including orchids and other topical plants. I am a college student with a very flexible schedule. I am home most of the day and I am not usually gone for more than 3 hours at a time. On school days I am gone during the middle of the day but I come home in between classes to spend time with everyone. I have a nice fenced in yard that has plenty of room for a dog to run around. I have two pet water fountains that are rinsed and refilled every day. I have a calm and quiet home that can be helpful for anxious or shy pets. I make sure that I spend plenty of quality time with your pet in your home so they feel comfortable. I love all kinds of pets, and I make sure all of them get the love and care they need.

“Absolutely wonderful and thoughtful, I will definitely be requesting her again. She treated my dog Frankie with the same love and kindness I do 💛”


8. Amy Leigh T.
About: Growing up, my family had pets of various kinds my whole life and I’ve had my own cats since my sixth birthday. I loved animals so much I earned a degree studying wildlife at Humboldt State University. I recently switched to a career as a science teacher, but in another life I was a wildlife biologist. As part of my former day job I trapped and released native squirrels and other small mammals. I studied animal behavior and am very attuned to pets needs. I work locally from ~7:30 to 2:30 but can stop by and do check ups mid-morning if necessary. I’m also happy to help out with overnights. I have three cats at home (one of which is perpetually sporting resting grumpy face) so I’m not offering pet care out of my home at this time.


9. Crystal A.

“This was our first time using ROVER. Crystal was great. She showed up twice a day on time and walked, played with, and fed our dog. She sent great pictures and sent notes throughout our 9 day trip. Would highly recommend Crystal!”


10. Alicia M.


“Alicia is amazing! Polo a bit sick before asking her to care for him. She took good care when I was away. She gave him his medicine, fed him, and took him out to sunbathed. She sent me lots of updates during her stay. I felt at peace knowing how well my Polo was being care for. Phiona is very independent and doesn’t let people pet her, she surprisingly let her pet her once. Which is huge. Thanks Alicia for loving my Polo and Phiona as your own.”


11. Stephanie L.
About: As a dog sitter with extensive experience working with rescues, working dogs, puppies, and reactive dogs, I bring a compassionate and understanding approach to every dog I care for. My background in handling rescues has taught me the importance of patience and trust-building, while my experience with working dogs gives me insight into their high-energy needs and structure. I’ve also raised puppies, providing the guidance and training they need to grow into well-behaved companions. With reactive dogs, I prioritize creating a calm, safe environment, ensuring they feel secure and understood. This combination of skills makes me an ideal dog sitter for any situation - I'm excited to meet and care for your fur baby! I currently go to grad school online and work part time from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I am willing to work outside of the immediate Tehachapi area with gas mileage covered ($0.50 per mile). I am experienced in caring for all kinds of animals in all settings, whether it be on a rural ranch or in a family home/apartment. I have experience crate training, structured walks, obedience and agility. I am happy to follow any and all detailed instructions for pet care whether it's medical, food or play. If you have a reactive or sensitive dog, that is my specialty! I love making a dog feel comfortable and watching them blossom and will do whatever it takes to give them the patience, understanding and gentle leadership they deserve.

15. Megan M.
“Megan has been great with my dog, Ranger. She is responsive, reliable & is easy to communicate with. It's clear Ranger is loved on and taken care of when Megan helps us out!”


16. Jessica C.

“Jessica is the best! She put so much care into watching our dog. I could not have asked for a better dog sitter.”


17. Claire K.
“BEST DOG SITTER EVER!! That’s all I need to say, I probably shouldn’t even say that because she’ll be too booked to watch my dog from now on. My dog is cranky and isn’t too keen on new people. Claire won him over instantly, he even slept on the bed with her! She was diligent in sending us pictures and updates daily without having to ask. Great young lady who is amazing with animals. Would highly recommend her.”

About: Former doggy daycare attendant, groomer, and Great Dane owner—I've handled pups of all sizes and personalities. Whether your dog needs a walk, some playtime, or just a dependable human, I've got them covered! As of now, my schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m available to care for your dog whenever you need me. I’m open to daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays. Let me know what works best for you! I’ll ensure your pets are well-cared for in the comfort of their own home. I’ll let them in and out, take them on walks, feed and water them, and administer any necessary medication. Your pets will be in loving hands while you're away!




19. Al P.
“Al has taken care of my dog when I was out of town. He was great! When I came home Georgio was very happy and full of energy. I would recommend him to anyone.”
