“Our dogs had another wonderful vacation with Lynn! One was recently recovering from surgery the prior week and still required wearing the cone of shame. Lynn was superb taking care of him with plenty of cuddling and TLC. As always, we received many photos of the pups during their stay. You can definitely trust Lynn with your precious pups.”
“So glad Poulette and Jennifer could accommodate our dogs who are reactive but did very well staying with them. We got updates and appreciated the great communication. Dogs were happy with the outdoor time too!”
“Couldn’t have gone easier or any better. Kandra was exceptionally polite and attentive to my dog Hank. Hank apparently had quite the time with the other dogs, playing in the yard. He didn’t even want to get back in the car when I came and got him (lol). He had a little injury on his tail that Kandra made sure was kept clean and bandaged. I highly recommend this host to anyone using Rover…Five Stars and a 10 out of 10 in satisfaction for me and Hank”
“Ruby watched my pup while I was away and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience! From the very first interaction, she was professional, friendly, and eager to ensure my boy felt comfortable and safe in my absence. Throughout the time I was away,, Ruby provided regular updates, including photos and videos, which made me feel at ease and reassured that my pet was being well cared for. I would highly recommend Ruby to anyone in need of a reliable and caring pet sitter. I will certainly be booking again for my next trip!”
“Thank you to Tara. Our dog Murphy was well taken care of during his time at Tara’s house. He was treated like a member of her family. We would definitely use Tara’s services again if we need to leave Murphy behind when we go away on a trip.”
“Olivia was super flexible and communicative. We needed to do a pretty early drop off and it was no issue. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Our dog is coming home much happier than if she had stayed at a boarding place.”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Kayla was very communicative throughout the entire stay. It was our first time leaving our dog, and she immediately put us at ease when we met her. I loved receiving updates and pictures of him while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I would definitely trust her with our pup again!”
“Tristi did an amazing job! She was communicative, attentive, and made sure all the pups were safe, comfortable, and happy. It's clear she genuinely cares about dogs, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Her family was wonderful too! I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Melissa and Shaun were awesome! I’m very glad I found them so last minute and were able to take all four of my pups. They had a good layout with the kennels for boarding, in the shade and about 2-3 different dogs runs. I have a mix of large and very small pups and she was able to attend to them appropriately with the little ones separate and closely with her. Thank you again! Hope to book again soon!”
“Alesya, it's a fantastic discovery for our family. Our one-year-old Maltese Snowie has a great time staying with her and her family. I felt great when I met her! She is a lovely, responsible person. She also sends me daily reports, videos, and pictures of our little girl while she watches her. We definitely will book her again and refer her to our friends 🥰”
“Our Great Dane loved staying at Grant‘s place! She enjoys all of the freedom outside on his property, and we loved the pictures, videos, and knowing she was in there fun safe place!”
“Susan and Irv took great care of Enola. Susan kept us updated and sent pictures to show how much fun Enola was having. This is the second time Enola has stayed with Susan and she definitely feels at home.”
“While I was away, Sade had excellent communication with me the entire time. She sent pictures and updates regularly, which I really appreciated. She also followed the meal plan I provided perfectly and took great care of Peanut. I would definitely highly recommend Sade to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again in the very near future!”
“Cedric is amazing with Mitsy! She’s always happy to go by to see her friends Hazel and Nala, and Cedric keeps me updated with all the fun times so I don’t have anything to worry about. She always comes home with a big smile, and sleeps the rest of the day away! Leaving Mitsy in such a loving environment is a great comfort, and they are my go-to for doggy care!”
“Martha was the BEST! She kept me updated everyday about Duke. She also asked me all the right questions to ensure that Duke would be good during his stay as well as comfortable. I will definitely be bringing Duke back! You will not be disappointed! Book with Martha.”

“An excellent experience with my two cats; Carrington knows how to handle them according to their specific needs and preferences. When I returned, they were in great shape and had been very well cared for. Highly recommended 😊”
“Adrienne was fantastic! She spent some time with my sweetie while my husband and I were off getting married. We booked her at the last minute when our original cat-sitter fell through, but Adrienne was there to save us! Lluvia was so pleased to have someone spend time with her that she didn’t seem at all phased when we got home. On top of that, Adrienne brought all of our packages inside that people sent us off of our registry. There must have been at least 20. We will definitely be hitting Adrienne up again in the future!”
“I’ve booked with her three times now. This time - for drop-ins with my cat, and she has been consistently great. She always makes sure his litter box is clean, his food and water are full, and she takes the time to play with him, which I really appreciate. It gives me peace of mind knowing he’s in good hands while I’m away. She does a wonderful job, and I’ll definitely keep booking with her!”

“Misty was always on time for caring for our 2 cats. She sent us complete reports along with pictures which assured us that all is going well at home with our cats. Having used Misty’s services we highly believe she is a person you can trust your pets with, and we highly recommend her. Thank you so much Misty!”
About: I've had cats since I was 5. My grandparents also has a farm so I have lots of experience with farm cats and feral cats. I've also worked for 10+ years with a local rescue, raising kittens only days or weeks old until they are old enough to be fixed and adopted - feeding them milk on a regular schedule and then weaning them onto wet food, then dry food, also teaching them how to be a cat by interacting with my cats. During the course of my volunteering I have also been taught various first aid treatments as well as how to administer medications and injections.
About: I’ve taken care of cats for as long as I can remember. I currently have two who are very spoiled with comfort and affection! I have taken care of pregnant Mothers and their litters that were left at my home. I’ve bottle fed and administered medications. I have had cats that live only indoors, only outside, and some who do both. Their food regimen, fresh clean water, and clean litter boxes are always a priority of course, as well as playtime, and pets and or cuddles (when they’re in the mood!) I am very aware of how clever cats can be and am adept at ensuring their environment is safe.
About: I've had all kinds of animals growing up, and have owned my own pooch for over 10 years, I guess you can say I love spoiling my pets and treating them like a real member of the family! Of course my fur babies fit into my everyday routine, tlc every morning, noon and night! Feed well, treats, grooming, and lots of spoiling, love and kisses! Making sure the animals first trust you and don't feel anxious with you! Making sure they know they are still loved even when their owner is away! Lots of love and care, potty breaks, treats, attention, kisses, pets, and feed and cuddles!
About: Although I don't clean litter boxes, I've had many years experience interacting with cats and being a calm presence for them. A good head scratch and belly rub to give comfort or paying laser toys and feather wands, I bring my own!

“Cheyenne is an amazing dogsitter who truly cares for her clients’ pets. She gives our dog Charlie so much time, love, and attention every time. Whether it’s taking him on a hike, to the beach, or doing training exercises with treats, I know Charlie is super comfortable and loves spending time with her even though he’s the kind of dog that gets separation anxiety. Having someone as trustworthy and thoughtful to take care of Charlie has made us feel comfortable to go on day trips or longer vacations without worrying about our baby. Thanks Cheyenne! 🙏”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them like they’re my own. Over the years, I’ve been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to look after their pets, and I take that responsibility to heart. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including raising a German Shepherd who completed professional training, as well as helping with puppy training and basic obedience. At home, I have two cats, so I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand the different kinds of care and attention they need. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. For boarding, my husband and I create a warm, pet-loving home where animals are treated like family. We both have grown up around pets and genuinely enjoy their company. Your pet will be cared for with kindness, patience, and plenty of attention while they stay with us. When your pet stays with me, you can expect: 🐾 Reliable, attentive care 🐾 Regular photo and video updates 🐾 Plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection 🐾 Respect for your pet's routine and special needs 🐾 A safe, loving environment where they're treated like family Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship they need throughout the day. Since I already care for my own cats, I'm accustomed to maintaining feeding schedules, providing enrichment, monitoring behavior, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether it's walks, potty breaks, play sessions, cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company, I make time to give each animal personalized care based on their needs and routine. My husband and I work together to create a calm, loving environment for pets staying in our home, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and attention while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always strive to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication needs, exercise routines, and any special preferences to help pets feel at home. For pets staying with me, I make sure they have regular opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, rest, and lots of love. My husband and I are both animal lovers and work together to provide a welcoming environment where pets receive plenty of supervision and companionship. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, medication administration if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. My goal is always to reduce stress, keep pets comfortable, and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving reliable, loving care.

“I tried Rover for the first time yesterday with Ashleigh in Bakersfield. At first, never having done it I was a little worried but Ashleigh was so nice and friendly. She was very welcoming when I dropped off Bella and when I went back to pick her up, I could tell Bella was comfortable in her home. I also found out Bella learned how to use a doggy door which is nice and new. Would definitely trust Ashleigh with my dog again. Highly recommend!”

About: I've had the pleasure of loving and taking care of furbabies of all sizes for 20 years. I first started pet sitting for an acquaintance in 2005. Later, when I became established in the area as a trusted house cleaner, I started pet sitting for some of my clients and their friends. Sadly, I lost all my clients and contacts save one in the Camp Fire as my client base was in Paradise and Magalia. Since then, I have taken care of my own little furbabies and ever so often cared for the Chihuahua/Pug/Terrier mix of the one remaining client from Paradise. Within the years that I was actively pet sitting, I took care of dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to Whippets. I am excited to once again assist you with your pet sitting needs and ensure the best attention is given to your dog’s health, happiness, and well-being! For my clients in Paradise and Magalia, I did both drop-ins and overnight stays. (My favorite memory was staying with two little lovely Dachsies for three weeks!) I made sure each pet I took care of was fed as per the instructions given to me and that they had access to fresh, clean water. Whether it’s maintaining a regular meal routine or making sure your pet stays hydrated throughout the day, I prioritize comfort and health for all furbabies in my care. I also have experience administering medications, whether oral or topical, and am dedicated to ensuring your pets specific medical needs are met with precision and care. I know personally the importance of a vet's instructions and the proper maintenance of a consistent medication routine. I also know the importance of exercise in keeping a pet happy and healthy. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous activity, I am happy to ensure that your pet gets the exercise and playtime they need! Above all, each dog that I have taken care of I have treated as part of my family. I look forward to providing your furbaby with the same love, attention, and care that I have given to my past clients and to my own pets! I currently have a day job between the hours of 9:00AM and 3:30PM, Monday through Friday. My hours are flexible with my day job and I can switch obligations around as needed to suit your pet sitting needs. I do not work on weekends. I can be available during the day on week days, and am available nights during the week, and evenings and nights on weekends. For any pet in my care, whether it has been a client's pet or my own, I have always ensured that they have gotten plenty of love and quality care. For past clients, I adhered to all instructions given pertaining to feeding time, exercise and medications if applicable. I made sure there were plenty of cuddles and that every pet in my care felt safe and secure.

I pay close attention to details in everything I do. So i will follow care instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m currently working from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily adapt to your dog’s routine. Whether they thrive on a structured routine or just need some extra attention and companionship during the day, I’m able to be present in order to provide consistent care. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my daily routine comes naturally. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize creating a safe and low stress environment. I take the time to learn each dog’s preferences, noting any special instructions, so they can feel as at home as possible while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time I also have a friendly, laid back older dog who gets along well with other dogs and helps visiting pets feel at ease. Because I work from home I am able to provide plenty of supervision throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages along the way, giving you peace of mind while your dog is in my care.
“Erin was excellent! She showed up right on time every day with a ton of enthusiasm. We have a high energy dog and she came back from walks with Erin totally wiped out. Will definitely request her next time we need a dog walker!”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and they seem to love me and trust me and now in the past several years cats too! I'm retired fit guy with flexible schedule.

“So glad Poulette and Jennifer could accommodate our dogs who are reactive but did very well staying with them. We got updates and appreciated the great communication. Dogs were happy with the outdoor time too!”
“Couldn’t have gone easier or any better. Kandra was exceptionally polite and attentive to my dog Hank. Hank apparently had quite the time with the other dogs, playing in the yard. He didn’t even want to get back in the car when I came and got him (lol). He had a little injury on his tail that Kandra made sure was kept clean and bandaged. I highly recommend this host to anyone using Rover…Five Stars and a 10 out of 10 in satisfaction for me and Hank”
“Olivia was super flexible and communicative. We needed to do a pretty early drop off and it was no issue. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Our dog is coming home much happier than if she had stayed at a boarding place.”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Kayla was very communicative throughout the entire stay. It was our first time leaving our dog, and she immediately put us at ease when we met her. I loved receiving updates and pictures of him while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I would definitely trust her with our pup again!”
“Tristi did an amazing job! She was communicative, attentive, and made sure all the pups were safe, comfortable, and happy. It's clear she genuinely cares about dogs, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Her family was wonderful too! I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Melissa and Shaun were awesome! I’m very glad I found them so last minute and were able to take all four of my pups. They had a good layout with the kennels for boarding, in the shade and about 2-3 different dogs runs. I have a mix of large and very small pups and she was able to attend to them appropriately with the little ones separate and closely with her. Thank you again! Hope to book again soon!”
“Our Great Dane loved staying at Grant‘s place! She enjoys all of the freedom outside on his property, and we loved the pictures, videos, and knowing she was in there fun safe place!”
“While I was away, Sade had excellent communication with me the entire time. She sent pictures and updates regularly, which I really appreciated. She also followed the meal plan I provided perfectly and took great care of Peanut. I would definitely highly recommend Sade to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, and I will absolutely be using her again in the very near future!”
“Cedric is amazing with Mitsy! She’s always happy to go by to see her friends Hazel and Nala, and Cedric keeps me updated with all the fun times so I don’t have anything to worry about. She always comes home with a big smile, and sleeps the rest of the day away! Leaving Mitsy in such a loving environment is a great comfort, and they are my go-to for doggy care!”
“Samantha was fantastic with our babies. This is not your typical boarding place. She described it as summer camp for doggies and it is accurate. The area she has set up for the dogs is well thought-out, clean, and meets all of their needs and more. She took lots of pictures (different subject but her pictures were amazing), kept me updated throughout the day and let me know when my dogs were tucked in for the night. My city dogs got to meet horses, goats, and pigs and I think they had a great time, because they slept for so long when they got home. Im looking forward to their next summer camp with Samantha!”
“Domitria took wonderful care of Lala. Lala is a senior doggy of 16 yrs. She's eyesight challenged & hearing challenged but that didn't matter. She was still loved & cared for exceptionally well. I'm very happy with Domitria's care of Lala.”
“Coco and Jeff were absolutely wonderful with my anxious dog. They had clear communication, were flexible with scheduling and very caring; My dog was more relaxed than she usually is after boarding. Would definitely highly recommend!”
“Jena and her family took the absolute best care of our dog, Juno. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands. They treated her like one of their own, and it showed. Juno was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We had total peace of mind while we were away, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jena again. Highly recommend!”
“Wes H was incredible! He went far above and beyond my expectations in the care he gave my lab mix. She had a spa vacation staying with Wes! Great communication with many photos and updates. Highly recommend!”
“Tyler was quick to respond and happy to do a meet and greet. He has lots of experience with dogs and Hazel was in great hands! He sent pictures throughout her stay with him and our dogs got along great. Would recommend and book again!”
