“This was our first time using Rover and I’m thankful that our first time was with Marin. She made us feel at ease throughout the time she had our puppy. She didn’t give up when he struggled on his first night and she made him feel comfortable throughout the rest of his stay.”
“Our furs are 8 yrs old and have only been overnight with family. Finding Rover and Karrie S has been a blessing we have been wishing for. I knew immediately at our meet and greet that Karrie was for us. Her ultimate care and love and knowledge of dogs was so calming. We know when the furs are with her in her home, we can enjoy ourselves without worry. Side note, we love interacting with Karrie on the human level and consider her a friend.”
“Stephanie is outstanding in caring for my dogs. They go for walks, car rides and are loved and cared for. In fact the dogs (which had not seen Stephanie in months) ran up to the house when we delivered them. We are overwhelmingly pleased with her services.”
“Kyle and Sara took such good care of our boy!! We received daily updates and pictures of his activities while we were gone. We are so thankful we have someone to leave him with when we travel that treats him so well!”
“Andruw helped us tremendously when our initial rover cancelled the DAY before we left. He was super helpful and communicated with us very well! Would definitely recommend booking with Andruw, we will use his services again!”
About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Monique was wonderful! We have engaged her as our sitter twice now: once for an overnight stay and once for a 13 day vacation! Monique kept in contact with us every day and sent pictures. Our girls are very used to their normal daily routine but they seemed to adapt to Monique wonderfully! A very telling moment for me was when we got back from vacation and I picked the dogs up. Got the dogs in the car and they were very glad to see me but as soon as they realized we were leaving without Monique they were like: Wait! You forgot her! They soon settled down but it was obvious they did not like leaving her. We can STRONGLY recommend Monique as a perfect sitter for your pup(s). There will be no one else for us when we need a sitter in the future.”
“Danielle does such a great job taking care of our emotionally and medically complex elderly dog. We’ll feel secure in knowing our dog is well cared for whenever she stays with Danielle.”
“Lauren was wonderful with my dog, Charlie - she accommodated his special needs and was loving and caring with him. I always know he has had good care when I come home and he’s excited to see me but is also calm and centered. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Where do I even begin?! First off 5 stars is NOT even enough to say how amazing Krystal was with my Furbaby. Krystal was absolutely lovely and communicated well. I haven’t used Rover in over ten years and I was very nervous about leaving my dog with anyone I didn’t know. I had a short time frame to find someone which also added to my stress and worry. However, once I met Krystal I felt that my dog would be just fine. It was almost like her and Krystal had met before because Krystal and her family made Cleo feel right at home. They were patient, kind, caring, attentive and all around a great family. I would leave my dog with Krystal again any day. She sent pictures and videos daily to ensure I knew how my dog was doing. Definitely recommend her for any pet sitting!”
“Miki was great! I would highly recommend her. I really like that she boarded my dog only, as she has two small dogs of her own. Miki gave me daily updates on how Annie was doing and sent me lots of pictures and videos through the Rover app. I would definitely use her again. Her two young daughters and husband were very sweet too! They took really good care of my precious girl.”
“Heidi and Phil were so great with Leo! I can tell he was in good hands and in great spirits the whole time. They made me feel at ease and sent nice updates during his stay. Thank you so very much! Leo will love to see you again soon”
About: I am not just a pet sitter; I am a highly experienced caregiver who understands that every dog requires unique, specialized attention. Having raised and cared for my own four dogs for 25 years, I know exactly what it takes to keep a home safe, happy, and structured for multiple pets. I am fully confident and experienced in managing complex health conditions. I provide specialized care for diabetes (including strict schedules and insulin shots), seizure management, and gentle guidance for seniors experiencing Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD). From fragile 5-pound newborn puppies to independent 110-pound seniors, I understand the different handling, behavioral, and nutritional needs across all sizes and life stages. I am used to keeping up with a pack! I walked my four dogs every single day, meaning your pet will get the reliable exercise, outdoor time, and routine they thrive on. My community frequently relies on me to care for their pets because they know I treat every dog with the same level of vigilance and love as my own. I treat pet care as a core priority in my daily and weekly schedule. My routine is built around reliability and punctuality, which is crucial for pets on strict medical or feeding regimens. I dedicate my mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings entirely to pet visits, ensuring that diabetic checks, insulin shots, and senior care happen precisely on time. Because I am used to managing a busy multi-dog pack of my own, I am highly organized and adapt my weekly calendar to give your pets the consistent, dedicated time they deserve. I treat your pet exactly like a member of my own pack, offering a structured, safe, and loving environment. I follow your exact instructions down to the letter. If your diabetic pet needs breakfast and insulin at a precise hour, or if your senior cat needs specialized cognitive support at night, I am there right on time. Because of my extensive experience with seizures, diabetes, and other health issues, I am highly observant. I look out for subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits, and I know exactly how to handle medical emergencies calmly. I keep up your pet's favorite neighborhood walking routes and playtime rituals, ensuring they get the mental stimulation and physical exercise they are used to.
About: I’m a pet parent to 3 cats and 1 dog, and over the years I’ve worked with multiple trainers to better understand animal behavior and communication. I’ve also volunteered at shelters, where I learned how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and support animals with patience and compassion. I love my own fur babies deeply, and I’ll care for yours with the same level of love, respect, and attention. If pricing is a concern, feel free to message me I’m always open to discussing options. Additionally, I am open to chickens, reptiles, and other pets. I work remotely, so I’m able to spend most of the day with your fur baby. For overnight stays, I may need a few short breaks during the day, and we can go over what works best for your pet during our meet‑and‑greet. I love being outdoors, and there’s no better company than a furry friend by my side. I’m available for walks and check‑ins Monday through Friday, as well as weekends and overnight stays. If you’d like to set up a meet‑and‑greet, feel free to message me. I make it a priority to communicate with you about your pet’s individual needs so every detail is understood and every comfort is met. I also take time to learn about any stresses, triggers, or special routines your fur baby may have. I usually recommend a meet‑and‑greet either in person or over Zoom to go over your pet’s daily schedule, since keeping their routine consistent helps reduce stress while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and this meeting allows us to cover everything thoroughly. The first meet‑and‑greet is free; any additional meetings may include a small fee. If you’d like to set one up, feel free to message me.

“Cary did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. I enjoyed receiving the pictures and updates. My cat is usually shy around new people but they hit it off. When I got home my kitty seemed happy. I will definitely call her again when I’m going to be out of town.”
“Alison was wonderful and patient with my doggies. She offered to come meet us before the weekend to get to know the dogs and their needs. I was able to show her how to administer meds and meals. On the days of booking, Alison followed all instructions and my pups were relaxed and happy when I retuned at the end of each day. It can be very hard to find help as a single person in a new town with senior dogs! Alison was wondeful and I would definitely book her again. I highly recommend.”
“Erin was there each day as we needed and spent extra time playing with and caring fur our kitty. She was also flexible when our travel plans needed to be adjusted. We loved getting photos of him. Thank you!!”
“Alison is awesome. She went the extra mile to make sure my cat took his meds. You can tell she really cares about animals and would not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Alison!!”
“Jeannette was wonderful with our cat, followed all of our care instructions and was communicative throughout our entire trip. Would definitely use her services again and recommend her to others!”
“Dayna was very reliable and communicative. She took great care of my cats, and I returned to three happy and healthy kitties. You can rest easy knowing that Dayna is providing excellent care to your pets.”

I know how to handle meds not only for cats, but dogs as well. I have a friendly and gentle demeanor that cats always gravitate towards. 😻
“Gloria has been absolutely amazing with my puppy Rocket! During our busy work weeks, she would pop in to get him out of his kennel, make sure he was well cared for, and always cleaned up after him. She even took the time to teach him little tricks, which was such a sweet bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares and brought him toys she thought he would like. I completely trust her with my dog, and that peace of mind means everything to me. I plan to keep booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care”

“We have fairly high need dogs and Kyle and Sara were able to meet those needs and more. The dogs had a great time with them. We received picture and text updates while they were there, which I really appreciated. I was a little nervous to leave the dogs with others, but Kyle and Sara allowed the dogs to come over for a visit before we left them. They really eased my anxiety and I will be very comfortable leaving them for longer in the future. Thank you!”
“Robert was the perfect host. He was so responsive and sent us photos and videos of our little girl throughout the day. He was such a pleasure to work with. Sweet Pea was very happy too. We definitely recommend him!”
“Thanks to Rover, I have found a fantastic sitter for my dog. Suzette has watched ‘Pepper’ for me, numerous times. I appreciate her timely responses, flexibility with scheduling and most importantly...I know that Pepper is well taken care of!”
“Cary did a great job looking after Brody! We enjoyed the meet and greet and walk with Frank. Cary listened to me about Brody’s needs and his anxiety. Brody spent all day at Cary’s home and when I collected Brody he was a calm and happy dog. Thanks so much!”
“Incredible service and care for our dog. Stephanie is amazing with dogs, and spent her time with Otis training him and having our dogs run around outside to get his energy out. She was so kind and responsive, we’ll continue to use her whenever we can.”
“Monique was awesome, super nice home in gated community, next to a park, constant communication, with pics sent. Highly recommend and would definitely take my Ben to her again! Thank you Monique :-)”
“This was our second day, and I was so happy to see how comfortable my dog became. She has separation anxiety, but today she wagged her tail and walked in calmly, which felt like a huge step forward. I really appreciate the patient, reassuring environment—it made a big difference for her sense of safety. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”
About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my own 3 pound Yorkie to 100 pound German Shepherds, as well as cats! I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I'll provide reliable, attentive care and treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I'm currently attending college online, which means I'm home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! Since I'm home, your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I live in an apartment, but we have a fenced dog area where pets can safely get outside time and enjoy some play. I also take dogs on daily walks to help them stay active and happy. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having a companion around, but I always make sure to respect each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible :)
“Danielle was great with my dog Brody! Brody has anxiety and gets worried about new situations so he was anxious but no need to worry, I picked up a very happy dog! Danielle was very caring with Brody and gave him time to settle in. Thankyou so much!”
“Krystal is super nice and experienced. Casper felt comfortable from the start, I left feeling good about where I left my boy for the day. When I picked him up he was in good spirits, very happy with the outcome of this experience!!”
About: My name is Debbie. I live in a house with a fenced backyard with lots of grass. Your dog will be well cared for and treated like part of the family! I grew up on a ranch and have cared for many different animals over the years. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with blind and deaf dogs as well. I have one dog that is 5 years old. He is fun and loving. He is a medium size dog who would love a playmate on the weekends! I often take my dog to the dog park or to the beach for walks and play. Your best friend would be safe and have lots of love here. If you’d like more information just ask. I am available weekends and some afternoons/evenings. I offer doggy day care or overnight care as well. Let me know what your pets needs are. I have a fenced grassy back yard with shade. Pets are also allowed in my house. If your pet sleeps in a crate I can do that or if they sleep on the couch or a bed I can do that as well. I am flexible with their needs.
About: I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel as relaxed and at home as possible while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing in a cozy spot, I'll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so active dogs will have opportunities for exercise, while more laid-back pups can enjoy a calm and peaceful environment. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and daily routines so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to create a positive experience that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable coming back again. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. My own dog is an important part of our family, so caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. Whether your dog enjoys being active or prefers a calm environment, I'll make sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need while staying as close as possible to their normal routine. I only accept the number of pets I can comfortably care for so that each one receives the attention, love, and supervision they deserve. If your little guy stay over he will have access to all my own has access to which is ALL AREAS of the home. We have a sunroom that has a doggie door as well which they can come in and out, i have a fence backyard. At night time they would sleep indoors or in the sunroom with the doggie door closed for the night.

“Gloria’s home was the perfect fit for my dog to spend his day. He had treats, walks, and other pups to play with. She was such a great communicator. From sending pics to asking clarifying questions about his needs - I just knew she cared about him as if he were her own. At the end of the day, that’s what you’re looking for!”

About: I have had a pup of my own since he was 5 months. He’s given me lots of experience on how to house train and how to teach a dog manners amongst all the other shenanigans that comes with owning a dog. I’m also a part-time caregiver for seniors in their homes. I help assist them with daily tasks such as chores, cooking, as well as toileting and assistance with standing/sitting. This job has taught me patience and how to gently care for another as if they were my family. I’m currently a student who is also a part-time caregiver for seniors. My only class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:20am-12:20pm, and my job schedule includes whatever client I am assigned to at the time. My schedule is very open, so I am flexible! I have a fenced yard with my one dog who hangs out with me when I am home. He is house-trained and well behaved, so he does not need a crate when I am gone. Though, I am able to easily crate your pup if that is what they need. I’d love to keep your dog company during check-in’s or stays, ensuring they feel safe and are given tons of pets while you are away!
“Thank you so much for taking care of Remmy. I loved receiving the pictures while at work. I would definitely recommend Erin to walk your dog and will definitely be using her in the future.”

I have a large backyard that’s fenced in, a lot of shade, and plenty of room to roam and explore. Your dog will be treated with love and respect.
“Dayna was fantastic! I contacted her fairly last minute to see if she could walk my dog and she responded quickly and was incredibly helpful! My senior pup seemed to really like her as well.”

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have also fostered kittens for the animal shelter that I later adopted. I am a substitute teacher during the regular school year and am otherwise a DoorDash driver. I would work my schedule around what you need. My cats stay indoors and my 2 dogs love hanging out on our front enclosed porch or lounging inside. They all get along quite well.
About: Can’t wait to hang out with your pet. I’ll always make sure they have fun with me. I’d love dogs but I think it’s a big step and prefer to be a sitter for now It fits in because I have a lot of free time and I’d love to spend time with animals ! Also I really love that I can get out and exercise and I am adding that to my daily routine Making sure my home or clean and free of any harm to animals or any one really. I live near the beach. So it’s perfect for a walk and there is a dog park nearby
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always watched dogs for all my friends and family! I love having dogs around as it’s never a dull moment in the house! I currently work remote so I am always home and and ready to care for your fur babies! I currently work remote so I am home all day. My work schedule is 8am-5:30pm and I exercise by walking the riverbed by my house so it’s perfect for me and the pups! I have a fenced yard and a twelve year old beagle mix who loves to meet new friends! When I dog sit for friends or family, I set up a spot for them in my room and my pup in a separate room so they can have their space. I’m not a huge fan of leaving pups in the garage (unless requested) so they will always have a spot with me I their own bed!
About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and hands on experience caring for pets. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep your pet on their normal schedule. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ❤️ I just moved here so I currently do not have a job at the moment so I will be available any time of the day you need! I have many knowledge and have been around many animals and taken care of many different types! I also was a vet tech, and I own 2 dogs and 3 cats!
About: I've had the gift of house/pet sitting for over 10 years, and it is without a doubt the most rewarding job I've ever experienced! Personally, I've had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, horses, and hermit crabs as pets, besides the odd rescued baby bird, bunny, or mouse. On top of cats, dogs, and fish, I've had the opportunity to care for alpacas, an African grey parrot, and saltwater fish/reefs, while pet sitting. Every animal I encounter has its own identity and temperament, which is always fun and interesting to observe and base my care on. I feel like such a winner when I get a standoffish animal to trust me! Throughout my life I've had an array of animals to bond with, though for a long period recently we had just one cat. Mournfully, a few years ago, my dad and I had to part with our beloved Stevie. She was our close companion for over 15 years, and I still miss her immensely. Her quirks and routines still cross my mind, which brings all the things that made her unique and lovable up into my heart. Pet sitting warms my heart, and definitely fills the need that I still have for animal companionship (but without the heartbreak). Pet sitting is a way for me to have the joy of loving and caring for a pet in an empathetic way: in their own home, on their own schedule, stepping into their owner's (figurative) shoes for a bit, to make *everyone* more comfortable. Time and again, it's proven to be the best way I've found to give personalized care to precious pets, and allow owners to truly enjoy their time away. My part-time library job offers me a lot of flexibility, leaving me the opportunity to do more of what I love. Traveling, exploring new areas, experiencing new food, going to music events, working out/walking, spiritual activities, and creative endeavors have a place in my life because of this balance. Of course that also includes one of the most rewarding ways to punctuate my life: house and pet sitting! I base my care around the individual needs of the pet and owner! Pets LOVE their routines, so I typically live in harmony with their modus operandi, on balance with my part-time engagements.
About: I've had pets my whole life and their care has always come naturally to me. I've brought dogs in from puppyhood and trained them in everything from housebreaking to tricks for fun. I find structure and love go hand in hand when it comes to raising well-behaved, happy pets. From an energetic dog to a geriatric dog that needs gentle care, I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I am also very dependable and consistent — your pet's routine will always be respected with me. I'm a part-time employee and student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule to give your pets plenty of love and attention. I can generally accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and even some weekends based on your needs and my work schedule. I’ll work with your schedule to make sure your pets are happy, safe, and never feel alone. Your safety and comfort are your pet's priority. I live in a quiet, pet-free residence with a securely fenced yard where pets may roam freely. I also live with a kind old Catahoula who also tolerates other pets. Either whether you board your dog in my residence or in your residence, I have a clean and peaceful environment as well as adhering to your pet's schedule strictly to keep them feeling like home and loved. You can rely on me to treat them like family.
About: I just love animals! Especially dogs and cats. They’re so fun to just hang out and take care of. I’ve been dog sitting at friend’s houses for years now. Whatever specifics you want for your animals, I’ll take care of! I am currently just living in Santa Maria. I work a good amount, but love animals. Just do this for fun! I love meeting new animals and pet sitting. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! When I am taking care of your pets, I will follow your specific rules for the animals and make sure they don’t harm themselves or others.
About: Schedule: I'm available Monday-Sunday If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask me. I have a dog and his name is Osito. I love and adore him very much and I will treat your fur baby like it's my own. I have experience giving dogs medication. If your fur baby needs medication I will assist with that!I also took care of my roommates on-boarding pets. I have a lot of experience with different breeds/size. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. Good luck with finding the right person for your fur baby. Feel free to read my reviews :) I'm currently not working so I would have plenty of time to play with your baby. I only work Monday-Friday from 8am-5pm. Weekends are considered. If your dog needs to be inside there kennel I will assure that they are by the end of my shift. Safety, and trust always comes first.
About: I’ve had dogs and cat for the last 7-8 years. They have been so good to us and we’ve enjoyed them more than I imagined. I have a business that I’ve owned for seven years and I’m able to make my own schedule. Also, my homeschooled kids are home and willing to help if I ever need it. I have done 20+ years of babysitting and childcare in my home and other peoples homes. Plus, I’ve had clients that I have worked for and have trusted me with their keys to their home for seven years.
About: Hey there! I am a very outgoing and adventurous person!! I've worked with dogs all my life and grown up around them. Every dog I've met I have had a special connection! I can't wait to meet your fur baby! I have so much love to give and Id love to give it to your pup! I love going on walks and to the beach. If you'd like I'll take your pup along! I love taking pictures and videos so if you like updates you will know for sure I can send them to you all the time!! I've been around all old and young dogs and all ages in between!

About: Every creature I meet - from fuzzy, waggy, purry fluff balls to mysterious little pocket-sized critters - is an adventure waiting to happen. I greet each one with sparkling excitement and big-hearted curiosity and love. 🏡🐶🐱 Due to remote working, I’m always here for your animal!! Animals at my house get the luxury of having interaction at their paws 🐾 Animals know I understand their secret frequency. My patience, gentleness, and playful spirit make them feel like they've found their long-lost best friend. I’ve had animals by my side my whole life, which is probably why I’m basically an animal whisperer at this point. They sense my intuition — that soft, instinctive way I know exactly what they need, whether it's a snack, a cuddle, or something else. Animals aren't just pets. They're honorary members of my family; my tiny roommates with fur. My home is their kingdom; my heart is their cozy lounge. Where I go, animals follow — because they know I’m the kind of human who truly gets them. I don’t just fit animals into my schedule — I weave them into my day. My routine is delightfully flexible, perfectly shaped to welcome paws. My schedule is flexible and intuitive, allowing me to build in regular check-ins, feeding times, walks, and play sessions without stress or disruption. I move through my tasks with patience, intuition, and a sprinkle of magic — knowing exactly when a dog needs an extra trot around the block or when a cat needs a dramatic feather-toy performance. Animals slip into my schedule so naturally you’d think they helped design it. To every pet I care for, I’m the whimsical guardian who arrives right when they need me — the keeper of routines, the bringer of fun, and the human who makes their day just a little more sparkly. Safety begins with awareness, consistency, and preparation. When caring for an animal, I create a space where their physical well-being is always the first priority. That means secure environments (no open doors if they are not allowed out, hazardous items, or unsafe spaces), proper handling, and mindful supervision during walks, play, or feeding. I pay attention to their routines, health cues, and comfort levels, making sure they’re protected from stress, danger, or anything unfamiliar that could overwhelm them. A safe animal is a relaxed animal — and I make that possible. A good environment is one that supports an animal’s emotional and physical needs. I create spaces that feel safe, comfortable, and full of enrichment — spots for quiet rest, opportunities for play, and room to explore without fear. My presence makes the environment even better: calm, welcoming, and filled with positive interactions. Whether the animal is staying in my home or I’m in theirs, I make sure their surroundings feel familiar, soothing, and full of the little comforts that help them thrive.
About: I have decidedly taken the entire summer off from a corporate job to recalibrate myself. With that being said, my time has opened up to provide the sweetest care for your pets. I have my own two dogs that I've loved and raised for the last 13 years. I have been with them through their puppy training, medical needs as they've gotten older, and become versed with the emotional labor that comes with owning aging pets. I am also an amateur photographer so you will absolutely be receiving a great number of photos of your pets while under my care.

About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Lauren was wonderful with my dog, Charlie - she accommodated his special needs and was loving and caring with him. I always know he has had good care when I come home and he’s excited to see me but is also calm and centered. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Jennifer & Julie took excellent care of Zoey. She had a great time at their place, so much so that she didn’t seem that excited to see us! They updated us regularly on how she was doing and sent plenty of pictures. Zoey will be visiting again soon.”
About: Although my pup is no longer alive, he brought me so much joy and I know your animals do too! I have many years of dog care and had cats while growing up. I can uphold any pet training you require and also have some great skills to add. I am currently very flexible! I am returning to school to obtain my Masters in therapy so my school schedule is flexible. Please reach out! I’m happy to provide for the needs of each individual pet, as all are different! I can provide cuddles, play enrichment sessions, training skills practice, dog walks, outdoor time, or crating if needed.
“Miki was great! I would highly recommend her. I really like that she boarded my dog only, as she has two small dogs of her own. Miki gave me daily updates on how Annie was doing and sent me lots of pictures and videos through the Rover app. I would definitely use her again. Her two young daughters and husband were very sweet too! They took really good care of my precious girl.”
“Heidi and Phil were so great with Leo! I can tell he was in good hands and in great spirits the whole time. They made me feel at ease and sent nice updates during his stay. Thank you so very much! Leo will love to see you again soon”
“Echo had another wonderful stay with Aty! I had zero worries while I was at a quarterly training out of town. Echo always has so much fun and he even got a bath before pickup. 10/10!”

About: I’m a pet parent to 3 cats and 1 dog, and over the years I’ve worked with multiple trainers to better understand animal behavior and communication. I’ve also volunteered at shelters, where I learned how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and support animals with patience and compassion. I love my own fur babies deeply, and I’ll care for yours with the same level of love, respect, and attention. If pricing is a concern, feel free to message me I’m always open to discussing options. Additionally, I am open to chickens, reptiles, and other pets. I work remotely, so I’m able to spend most of the day with your fur baby. For overnight stays, I may need a few short breaks during the day, and we can go over what works best for your pet during our meet‑and‑greet. I love being outdoors, and there’s no better company than a furry friend by my side. I’m available for walks and check‑ins Monday through Friday, as well as weekends and overnight stays. If you’d like to set up a meet‑and‑greet, feel free to message me. I make it a priority to communicate with you about your pet’s individual needs so every detail is understood and every comfort is met. I also take time to learn about any stresses, triggers, or special routines your fur baby may have. I usually recommend a meet‑and‑greet either in person or over Zoom to go over your pet’s daily schedule, since keeping their routine consistent helps reduce stress while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and this meeting allows us to cover everything thoroughly. The first meet‑and‑greet is free; any additional meetings may include a small fee. If you’d like to set one up, feel free to message me.
“Ellyn was awesome! I would highly recommend her. Definitely a 5 star experience. I know my dog Penny felt right at home and well cared for while I was away. I will not hesitate to have Ellyn take care of her in the future!”
