“I would give Leo 10 stars if I could! I had been looking for a pet sitter who could give care and attention to a small older dog. Someone who would understand the elderly and could communicate with them. From the moment he first visited, Enzo loved him. Leo is very talented at knowing how to "connect" with a dog and is incredibly detailed. He followed everything I asked to the letter. I was gone for 7 days and was out of cell phone range, yet knew I could trust Leo completely to care for Enzo. I will definitely book with Leo again.”
“Stefanny is a gem! I feel so lucky to have found her on Rover while visiting Santa Barbara this month. Stefanny took such good care of my kitty while I was away for the weekend. I felt at ease knowing my kitty and home were in caring hands, especially knowing that she is a cat mama herself. Stefanny's energy is very calming and she asked thoughtful questions about my kitty's routine. She sent me daily photos and updates throughout the weekend which was much appreciated. I arrived home to a spotless home and happy kitty. I highly recommend Stefanny!!”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember! 🐾 I’ve had dogs since I was about 6 years old, and growing up, my sisters and I always had a fur baby (or two… or five!) to love. 🩷 I grew up on a farm, so animals have always been a huge part of my life—from dogs and guinea pigs to bunnies, birds, goats, and chickens! I truly love being around animals and getting to know all their different personalities. Your fur baby will be treated like family while they’re with me—with lots of love, attention, playtime, belly rubs, and plenty of cuddles (if they’re into that 😉). My goal is for every pet to feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! 🐶💕 I work from home Monday through Friday, which gives me plenty of flexibility to give your fur baby the attention, love, and care they deserve! 🐾 I’m able to take breaks throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, playtime, and cuddles, while still being around to keep them company. I love having animals around while I work, so your pup will have plenty of companionship throughout the day! 🩷 I have a sweet 11-month-old puppy named Aria who loves making new friends! 🐶💕 She enjoys playing with other dogs and would be happy to have some company, but I always make sure each dog is comfortable and gets the space and attention they need. I also have an extra-large crate available if your pup is crate-trained or needs some quiet time, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine and your instructions
“Solomia was excellent with our pups! She cared for them as if they were here own. We could enjoy our friends wedding out of state with no worries as we knew she was there.”
“Gisele was wonderful with our dog, Bianco. She told me when she arrived and sent me pictures to up date me several times over just 3 days and 2 nights. I would totally recommend her and I will be for sure using her again.”
“We just had Zoey stay at our house for three nights with our big dog - she was AMAZING! Flexible, thoughtful, punctual, communicative, respectful, responsible… The list goes on! She really went above and beyond, and totally exceeded our expectations. We felt so comfortable and relaxed being away, knowing that Zoey was going to be there with our girl. She’s a natural “dog person” too, very gentle and kind, caring for our dog like she was her own. We will be eager to have her back whenever we leave town next! Thank you, Zoey!”
“Zohe took very good care of our fur baby, with regular updates and photos. She obviously cared about our dog and we felt so much better knowing she was safe and sound while we were out of town. Will definitely have Zohe watch our dog in the future!”
About: I bring a mix of patience, playfulness, and big pet-loving energy. Whether we’re running around, snuggling, or exploring, your pet always gets attention that feels personal, fun, and full of care. Pet care fits naturally into my Wednesday-Sunday schedule. I plan my days around walks, playtime, feeding, and check-ins, making sure every pet gets unrushed, focused attention and fun I respect your home and your pet’s routine-clean bowls, secure doors, mindful of boundaries, and lots of attention. I treat your space and your pet with real care.
About: My entire life I have been surrounded by the best furry family. We had well trained, obedient and incredibly kind dogs growing up. I wished upon a star at 10 years old and voila, I got my first golden retriever puppy as a present a few weeks later. Duke Skywalker was my first big responsibility, from working on potty training to letting him off leash on hikes and on the beach. He trusted me and I trusted him. During the pandemic, he was getting older and I did what I could to help him feel comfortable and loved. Even when he wasn’t able to walk, I’d place him in the back of the car and just sit with him watching the waves cuddled up with blankets. Must have patience with the older pups, and I loved every minute. I have trained my family’s adopted pups and they caught on fast. My roommate has a cat who I help care and train for when she is out of town for work, who knew training a cat actually works. Persistence, love and patience is key! I’m currently in between jobs, figuring out if I want a career switch. I have been wanting to surround myself with pets and helping anyone who needs it. I understand not having as much time as one would like, therefore happy to lend a hand in helping walk, feed, sit, even cuddle if your pet allows. I have a big space in my home and love to go outside and enjoy the fresh air, especially if it’s along the beach on a sunny day. In a client’s home, I would play with my new furry friend in the yard if they have or research nearby safe dog parks, or parks to walk with them to. And if the dogs or cats allow, always up for cuddles when sitting on the couch ‘Netflix & chilling’!
“Alex has such a calm, gentle spirit ~ we knew upon meeting him that our little Bonbon would be in safe, caring hands. We also appreciated that he was flexible when the timing of our event changed a bit. We look forward to Bonbon spending more time with Alex in the future! :-)”
“Hannah was outstanding. Our schedule changed slightly at last moment and Hannah changed her schedule to accommodate and arrive to our home and be with Harley soon after we had to leave. Hannah kept us up to date and posted lots of photos of our beloved Dog Harley as well as all the walks and loving she provided. We came home to Happy puppy and very clean home. Hannah was awesome and we look forward to having her sit with our dog again in the future.”
“Lana was very attentive and easy to work with. Got plenty of pics of my pup having the best time at home and around town! Exactly the kind of care I'd hoped he'd get”
“I have been looking for a trustworthy person to watch my 2 needy cats and finally found someone. Kirsa was so easy going with all my crazy requests. She was very responsive over the weekend and sent me pictures of them which is always nice. I will absolutely book again unless my attention seeking kitties scared her away!!”

Elizabeth is responsive and dependable. She was very caring with my 10 month old puppy who she watched over a period of 3 days visiting my hotel room while I was out for wedding events. My schedule would change slightly and she was flexible with my needs. I highly recommend her and would use her again.
Rowena was an outstanding dog sitter for my two small but sometimes difficult dogs. She was incredibly knowledgeable about dogs and the area where we were staying, and knew a small, mellow park to take them to near by. She walked them a number of times while we were gone, and sent pictures throughout. Both of my dogs, who are not typically friendly or trusting of new people, loved Rowena and seemed totally relaxed and happy when we got back. I would 10/10 recommend her as a dog sitter or walker.
There’s nothing like knowing your beloved Pet is being well cared for in your absence. This is absolutely imperative that I not worry about my dog while I’m out there trying to have fun! Jessa and Justin did exactly that: freed my mind up so I could enjoy my time away. They are kind and loving towards animals and sent me update pictures while I was away. They are a blessing.
Wow cannot say enough what an incredible gift Zohe was as a sitter. She not only took care of my two dogs, one big one little, with extreme affection and kindness, but she also did insanely detailed journals of every day she spent with the dogs, including multiple pictures. The way she spoke about my dogs made me feel like it was a trusted family member taking care of them! Thank you Zohe

Ellie was a godsend! She made Freckle feel so cared for. I really felt that Freck benefitted from her loving attention. Ellie was super communicative and went the extra mile to help me and my kitty stay connected—my babe has had a lot of changes since being rescued and she has a tendency towards UTI symptoms. That said, Ellie cares deeply for animals and I am sure she would give the world to each of them, no matter their needs. Ellie was so caring to Freckle and they formed a sweet connection! Will definitely be requesting her as a sitter for Freck again.
Solomia was absolutely wonderful with Lumi! I felt very comfortable knowing Lumi was in great hands while I was away. She was attentive, communicative, and felt that she treated Lumi like she was her own. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup, which is all you can ask for. I unfortunately had a flight delay on my last day of the trip and Solomia helped out to come back and care for Lumi after her original service time. I would absolutely trust Solomia with Lumi again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter. Thank you, Solomia!

We SO enjoyed having Deborah watch our home and take care of our dog. Charlie was genuinely happy when we got home - not just happy that we're home. This isn't always the case when someone new stays, so this is huge. Our house was left in perfect shape, and Deborah was great with communication and updates. We will absolutely look forward to using her again.
Hannah was great with our dog who is very old and has some health problems. We didn’t want to just leave her with anyone. But Hannah has a lot of experience with dogs. She was very sweet and responsive, respectful and our dog liked her! I would definitely use her again.
Mikyla (Kayla) was amazing with our Pomeranian, Sunny. She helped us out on short notice when we went on a long day trip. She came over to meet before which made me feel at ease. Sunny is a dog who needs comfort and someone is attentive. Kayla took notes when we met about Sunny's routine, and on the day of sent lots of updates and cute photos. We were so grateful for her help. Would highly recommend her!
