You can’t ask for a better set up with a fenced in pool for security.”

About: I’ve had my cat for 5 years, which has given me extensive experience in feline care. I understand their unique behaviors, dietary needs, and how to create a comfortable environment for them. Safety is my top priority when caring for cats. I ensure that my home is secure, with no access to harmful substances or escape routes. I’m attentive to their needs, providing a safe space for play and relaxation, and I monitor them closely during any activities. I’m also experienced in administering medications and keeping track of their health. My goal is to provide a loving and safe environment for your cat, ensuring they feel secure and happy while you’re away.

“Rocky can be a picky dog, with humans and dogs. When I dropped him off for daycare I was so nervous that he wouldn’t play nice and would wreak havoc. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I picked him up and they said he did great. By the time we got home, he was snoring away. Jill and Liz did great with Rocky and he will definitely be back! Big plus for sending me a photo after about 30 minutes assuring me he was fine :)”
“Karla Michelle took wonderful care of my dog Rhonda! My dog is anxious around new people but she was safe and cared for when she stayed with Karla. Karla sent me updates and photos, and Rhonda felt comfortable around her dogs who are calm and friendly. I would definitely rebook in the future with Karla Michelle!”
“Shanna is great. She has been patient and collaborative in planning for my Roxie's care. We had a meet and greet, then a short daycare stay, then a full day of daycare. She is well versed in dog behavior. My dog, coincidentally a "pitbull type" is often categorized and judged as "vicious or aggressive" even before people meet her. I've had dog sitters on Rover decline to provide services simply because of her breed or her appearance. Shanna understands that Roxie is a dog: a dog with her own level of prey drive (so Roxie is not allowed in her daughter's room cause of the hamster she has); a dog with some anxiety who barked at her husband when he came into the house. They didn't freak out. Shanna understood Roxie's behavior and worked through it, allowing Roxie to get to know her husband, settle and move on. I truly appreciate her family's openness and acceptance. We have two more full days of daycare booked and if all continues well, we will book boarding services. Roxie is people and dog friendly, but the discrimination we have experienced on Rover, leads me to take things in a new daycare/boarding situation slowly. Shanna has been very reassuring and understanding. throughout the process. I HIGHLY recommend her.”
“Brandan is great with our one year old fur baby! Simba has separation anxiety, but Brandan stays patient with him and attends to his needs to make him comfortable. We appreciate that he is flexible with our schedule and treats Simba like family. Simba is always excited to go to daycare as he starts to show excitement when we approach Brandan’s home and runs up to his door! If you are looking for someone who is compassionate and trustworthy; Brandan is the one!”
“Dominie took good care of our baby boy. She sent updates with pictures throughout his stay. We had peace of mind knowing he was in goods hands 😊 we will be hiring Dominie again!!”
“Haley was a very thoughtful, flexible sitter for Jethro. He can be a handful at times, but she was great at understanding his (and our) needs while we were out of town. She is trustworthy and goes the extra mile to make sure your dog is comfortable, and updated throughout the day without needing to be asked. I’d recommend her if you are looking for someone to trust with the security of your home, and safety and happiness of your animals.”
“This was first time leaving my dog. I was a little nervous since we were in town for my husbands work so I was not familiar with the area, people or just leaving him. Nalani did a great job making it comfortable for me. I took my dog to her two days and it was such a great experience. He did well and Nalani gave him lots of attention. Thank you so much for taking care of my fur baby while we were in town. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’m a dedicated 21 year old dog lover who currently cares for two rescued female puppies. They are friendly and fixed :) Raising young shelter dogs has given me hands-on experience with puppy routines, socialization, basic training, exercise, and lots of patience. I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Growing up, I also owned a Chihuahua and spent time dog walking for others ever since I was a kid, which helped me learn how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with active puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need extra attention and reassurance. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a caring companion while you're away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as a delivery driver, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to stay close to home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I care for my own two young dogs every day, so pet care is already a major part of my routine. When I'm not working, I spend time walking, training, playing with, and caring for them. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care and make sure they receive the attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, dogs have access to a large, securely fenced yard where they can play, exercise, and explore safely under supervision. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet place to relax. If a dog needs their own space, I can separate them using a dog gate and provide a comfortable area in my home where they can rest safely. I always monitor interactions between pets and make sure each dog is comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels at home.
“Whitney is amazing! She was so accommodating with our last-minute request and took such great care of Tuli. She’s attentive, kind, and truly cares about my pup—we love her! ❤️😊”
“2nd time using this app. And I immediately knew I wanted Penelope to go back to Sydney. They are a wonderful couple who keep me updated on my girl. Will definitely use again.”
About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech
About: I am a dedicated and energetic pet sitter ready to give your pets the love and care they deserve. I offer personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I provide frequent updates with photos and detailed reports, so you always know how they are doing. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I ensure a safe and loving environment. You can trust me to keep your pet happy, healthy, and well cared for! Even though I have just started college, my schedule is very flexible so I can prioritize working and taking care of your pets needs! :) I will always be supervising your pets and taking them for walks during any boarding or house sitting visits! Additionally I will give you a rundown at the end of the day or after each visit.
“I would 100% recommend Maria because she takes care of our dog and she takes good care of her and she is very affectionate with the dogs and always kept us informed about our dog.”
About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.
“I had a great experience with Adriana today. This was my dog first experience in a day care and I was worried. Adriana send me pictures and videos during my doggy care and I felt better. I will recommend Adriana with my friends.”

About: I’m 20 years old with a career path of becoming a veterinarian. I have lots of experience with dogs, as I have two of my own, and I’m a really big animal person. I typically watch over friends’ and family’s dogs, which I have a blast doing. I like going to dog parks and going on runs, as I’m a very active person. I have experience with drop-ins, making sure they are fed, played with, and well taken care of. I also have experience With overnight stays! I’m a very flexible and spontaneous person! My schedule is three things: school, part-time work, and the gym. Making time to care for, feed, walk, and play with animals is no problem. As for taking dogs on walks, that would fit naturally into my routine. On my days off, I would have extra time to give the pet more attention and care. Pet care is something I generally enjoy and something I would look forward to doing as well, since it is the career path I’m pursuing. :) care for pets by making sure they have fresh water and are fed the appropriate amount of food, depending on how much the owner usually feeds them.

About: I began to offer pet-sitting to friends and family just for some dog breath and tail wags in my life after my dog passed away. A family member told me about Rover and - here I am! I know how important pets are to the families they love and how important it is to have peace of mind that they are in good hands while you're away. I will ensure that your fur baby has all that they need while they wait on their favorite human/s to come home. I've taken care of dogs for most of my life. My childhood dog was one of my best friends. We would play together for hours and I was responsible to feed, bathe, and clean up after him. He loved belly rubs and going with us on family walks. I'm very comfortable taking care of senior dogs and dogs with medical needs. When my childhood dog was attacked, I was the one who flushed and cleaned his wounds, changed his bandages, and nursed him back to health after he came home from the vet. He became diabetic when he grew old and I gave him his insulin shots. As an adult, I adopted a pit-mix rescue and we enjoyed obedience training, going to the dog park, car rides for a pup cup, going for walks, and playing tug-of-war. At 14 years old, he was diagnosed with an oral tumor and he needed lots of extra care during his last months. He needed medication 3 times a day, a specialized diet when it became difficult for him to eat kibble, and eventually hand-feeding for him to be able to eat at all. He passed away 14 years old. I wouldn't trade one minute. In addition to dogs, I've taken care of geckos, an iguana, fish, water turtles, parakeets and cockatiels. I'm happy to care for any type of animal. I'm currently working part-time in the morning and would love to spend my afternoons with animals. If you need someone to care for your pet mid-day, we're the perfect match. I provide care where your pet feels safest - in their own home environment. Please leave me detailed instructions so I know where to find their food and food bowl, leash, toys, medications, etc. If you have spacial boundaries for your pet such as not being allowed on the couch or bed, in specific rooms, or if they are outside-dog only, etc., please let me know so I can respect and enforce those boundaries.
About: Hello! First I want to thank you for giving me the time to tell you a little about myself. I have been taking care of all types of animals especially dogs and cats since as far back as I can remember! I love caring for all types of animals and have references. Your fur baby will be well taken care of with frequent walks and play time! I tailor my care to your fur baby’s specific needs. I am also experienced in giving medicine. Thank you for taking the time to read this and best of luck in finding the right fit for your fur baby. I’m currently devoting myself to animal care full time so I am very flexible and can work with most schedules! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! Every animal is unique so I tailor my schedule and the fur baby’s schedule with what the owner/fur parent prefers and based on each baby’s needs. I do encourage play time - plenty of walks and lovings.
“Haley was amazing with Sirius. I had a work emergency out of state and needed someone to walk Sirius during the day while the husband is at work. Luckily, Haley agreed to walk Sirius. She gave him care and attention when I was far away and sent photos during the walks. Would highly recommend Haley and definitely will book her again. Thanks so much for taking care of our pup.”
About: As someone who has owned pets, I have years of experience in caring for cats, dogs, lizards, bunnies and more! When I could not locate a proper groomer for my shihtzu, I learned how cut my dog’s hair and clip his nails. When I owned cats, I did extensive research on diet to ensure they had all the nutrition they needed. I’m still fairly new to owning bunnies but I have learned a lot from vet visits and testimonials from other bun parents! I work two other jobs but I make my own schedule so I can fit late afternoon and nightly check ins, baths, walks, overnight sitting, and errands into my day if that’s what you’d like. I would love to spend as much time as I can making sure that your pet is well loved and taken care of. I don’t want to break an animal’s routine so if you have your pet on a schedule/routine, diet, or regiment of some sort, I plan to stick to that.
About: I grew up living with different types of pets and have a degree in animal science.

Highly recommend”

“Stephanie and her family greeted me and my pups with a warm and authentic welcome. They live in a terrific neighborhood on a cul de sac with no through traffic. There home and backyard was spacious enough for our energetic GSP’s and they had fun playing with their family dogs. We were updated with great photos of our dogs playing and resting by Stephanie. You can’t ask for a better set up with a fenced in pool for security.”
