Pet Sitting Upper State

“We had a family emergency and had to travel to the east coast after adopting our new puppy. Chelsi checked in on her, played with her and made sure she felt comfortable before leaving. Chelsi was super responsive, sent photos and always made sure to check in. We appreciated her care so much and will def book her again if given the opportunity. Thank you!!”

About: I absolutely love animals and especially dogs. I love walking them, taking them on fun outdoor adventures and also checking in on them while you are out and about. I may not currently have a pet of my own but I promise I will love yours as if they were my own. My schedule is very open and I make my own hours with the part-time work that I do. Plenty of time to visit with and walk your fur-baby! I am happy to walk your dog in your neighborhoods. Also, I can come and visit with them at your home as much as needed.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs, young and old, and think the absolute world of these beautiful animals. I recently parted ways with my soul dog when he passed in March and have missed him every moment since. Despite this loss, I have not lost my love for dogs. Caring for your baby would be an absolute privilege and joy for me, and I promise to love and look out for them as my own. I work in home health healthcare but am typically available every morning before 10am and every afternoon after 4pm. My days can be flexible where I can check in periodically as well— I am happy to coordinate as needed. I’m also off every Wednesday and am available over overnight stays. I welcome dogs into the home as well and am always willing to take them out to the beach, on trails, and any adventures in general!

“Cheryl is incredible! We hired her super last minute and she was so accommodating and helpful. We had never used Rover before and she was able to answer all of our questions and put our minds at ease. She was so great with our dog and gave us detailed updates. We can't recommend her enough and will definitely hire her again!”

About: I'm a 26 year old working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I have experience taking care of and training younger dogs and have a young dog myself. I love all kinds of dogs and will take care of your pets like I would my own. I'm working part time so I have varying schedules week to week with lots of time to take care of your pet! I'm always available all day Friday and Saturday morning. I frequently take long walks so your dog will have consistent exercise and frequent potty breaks. I have a private fenced in yard and a very friendly dog that loves playing with other dogs! I can easily crate your dog at night depending on what you prefer. I will follow your dog's routine feeding and care so they are happy and feel at home!

About: I have one year of dog walking/sitting experience and have been surrounded by pets for my whole life! I walked/ran my neighbors dog and took care of him while they went out of town and whenever needed. My apartment recently fostered a dog for a few months and I actively took care of him, making sure he was fed, walked, and could go to the bathroom. My dad recently adopted a new dog and I regularly take him on walks, play fetch with him, and give him as much attention as he wants! I am a very active person who loves going on walks and hanging out with dogs! I recently graduated college so I have a lot of free time. I am available at any time on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday! I have a car and will be able to drive wherever needed. I take walks every day and would love for a pup to keep me company! When caring for a pet in a client's home, I respect the home and the home owners rules. I will keep the home clean and organized and follow all of the care instructions extremely carefully. I will prioritize making sure the animal is comfortable in their environment. I will also provide regular updates, photos, and communication if the owner wishes, so they can feel confident that their pet is safe and happy while they are away.

About: I understand that your fur babies are your best friends, and they deserve the very best care while you’re away. With over 10 years of pet sitting experience, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes, bringing compassion and love to every animal I meet! I am available morning, afternoon, and evening, most weekdays and weekends. I’m fully dedicated to pet care, so your fur babies always comes first. When caring for pets in your home, I follow daily routines and house rules to keep things as normal as possible for your pet. I understand that familiar surroundings help reduce stress, and I make sure everything stays tidy and just as you left it.

About: I've taken care of dogs and other pets for over 40 years. I grew up around all kind of animals, and am comfortable adapting to their unique personalities & needs. I work mostly from home, and can be flexible for your pet care needs. I am available 24/7 on weekends and some holidays. I will always try to accommodate your schedule. I have a house, with a large, fenced yard. I live on a quiet, dead-end street, and have an open space very close by to allow your dog to sniff, walk, explore & run. I am also available to house-sit/care for your pet in your home.

“Anna helped us out at the last minute and we couldn’t have been happier! She took such great care of Paris, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Paris was happy, comfortable, and clearly well cared for. We would absolutely book with them again!”

“She is an excellent sitter for our two cats. This was our second time and we will happily hire her again in future. She goes above and beyond; in the warm weather she visited an additional time just to make sure our cats weren’t too hot. We are comfortable traveling with the knowledge that our kitties are in good hands.”

Katie C.

“Ann was a fantastic sitter for our senior cat Missy. She provided great picture collages and updates for each visit, and it seemed as though she and Missy were really able to enjoy each other’s company. When we returned home, the house was in perfect order - probably even better than we left it - and Missy seemed in good spirits. Hope we can book Ann to come visit again the next time we’re away!”

Kate E.

“Friendly, reliable and great. Aimee is a great person and she helps to take care of my bunny. Thank you very much.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals, of all kinds, my whole life. Growing up on a homestead has given me the passion as well as practical skill set to take care of animals. Newborn fosters, end of life care, administering medications or specific diets are no problem at all! I’m currently working part time, so I have an abundance of availability. Missing my furry babies back home, it would be my pleasure to care for your animals. I am fully prepared and have handled difficult and aggressive animals with ease in the past. I completely understand the fear of being away from your animals, I am always available via phone to ease any concerns.

“Amanda was awesome! We were in town visiting and she helped make the trip a success by spending some time with Taz for a few days. She was friendly and communicative and we loved all the pics! Will definitely use her again when we visit in the future!”

Jen B.

“Nicole was great and super communicative. I could tell my kitties were well cared for and I loved getting her pictures each visit. Thank you Nicole for loving on Franklin and Scout for us!”

About: I have proudly cared for my own dog for the past 9 years as well as my family and friend’s dogs as well, giving me hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding, companionship, and overall pet care. I am a beginner to Rover, however I genuinely love animals and understand the importance of providing them with patience, attention, and a safe, caring environment. I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved. Pet care is already a regular part of my daily routine, as I have cared for my own dog for the past 9 years. I work full time during the week, but I am available after 6PM on weekdays for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with pets. On weekends, I have open availability and can dedicate more time to longer walks, playtime, and personalized care. I enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I ensure they have fresh water, are fed according to instructions, receive plenty of attention, exercise, and bathroom breaks, and are always kept safe. I also provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to treat every pet with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own dog.

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I come from a long line of dog people, with generations of family members who have always had dogs in the home. If you ask me my favorite subject, the answer is always “dogs.” I’m the type of person who says hello to every dog I pass, attends dog trivia nights for fun, and spends my free time volunteering at Santa Barbara Humane. If there’s a dog nearby, chances are I’ve already stopped to say hi! My background as an animal lover goes beyond passion. I spent years working in veterinary medicine, gaining hands-on experience caring for animals that need a little extra attention and support. This includes puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with medical needs. I already love spending time walking around beautiful Santa Barbara, so I’m thrilled to combine my daily walks with quality time spent with the doggos of Santa Barbara! I have a flexible, hybrid schedule and can typically adjust on short notice. If I do go into my office, it’s typically for 4-6 hours. I love taking walks throughout the day, so it’ll be easy to add walking your dog to my daily schedule! I have a one bedroom apartment with a sunny balcony. I am able to close off various spaces around the apartment if needed. I’m also comfortable with pets on furniture and giving baths if needed.

“Capri was great! Very punctual, responsive and kind! She fed and walked my pup while I was out of town. Would definitely book with her again!”
