“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!”
“Krystal and her family are absolutely amazing! My fur baby loves staying there. This was our second stay and I will never go to anyone else for a sitter! Cleo always has a blast when she’s there. They went hiking, to the beach and lots of walks. I also really appreciated the fact that Krystal sent lots of pictures and videos, while I was gone.”
“Monique is awesome taking care of my Dog. She is very flexible about the timing and she sends picture update every hour. I will definitely leave my dog again with Monique.”
“Marin is an amazing sitter, I always book with her when I have to leave town and she send many pics and updates regarding my fur baby. I highly recommend booking Marin for your pet!”
“Lauren and her family are nothing short of fantastic. They watched our 14 year old pupper, Duke, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous- but Lauren and her family made it such a positive, comforting experience. Lauren was incredibly communicative throughout the planning, and even during Duke's stay. Her family has a genuine love for animals- I can't even begin to overstate it. One of the sweetest moments? I came to pick Duke up from his sleepover and, as we were walking out the door, Duke actually walked back in just to say goodbye to the kids. That's how we knew he felt safe and happy there. We already have plans for Duke to have future sleepovers with Lauren and her family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. She and her family are absolute gems.”
“Niccola and her dogs are so great, when I picked up my dog, he was so tired from playing all day. I look forward to using her again and definitely will recommend her to anyone needing their fur babies taken care of.”
“We had recently moved to the area and I was so nervous finding someone to watch our CKCS Lulu and am so grateful we found Suzette! She and her pup took such good care of our girl. Highly recommend!”
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.
“Karrie was absolutely wonderful with our babies. One of our dogs is almost 17 and needs a little extra attention and Karrie was so patient and caring. We also received picture updates while we were gone and I dogs loved going to the dog park with her.”
“Danielle was great with both of our dogs, and patient with Dudley’s anxiety at the beginning of his stay. Reassuring with updates and photos. One way to clearly tell that it went well is how easily they settled back in immediately at home.”
“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!”
“Katie was an amazing pet sitter for Gracie, our four-year-old miniature Australian Shepherd. She kept in touch with us about how Gracie was doing and even sent pictures with her taking Gracie on a walk at the beach! I will definitely call on Katie again next time we are in town. Thank you, Katie!”
“Heidi and Phil were simply amazing. I've used rover with some other care takers and these two are head and shoulders above the rest. I got videos and pictures every day and live updates. It made me feel so comfortable that my dog was in good hands. I will be booking with them in the future. I highly recommend Heidi you won't be sorry! Thank you Heidi for taking such good care of Bailey.”

“I had less than a week notice before I had to leave for a 5 week long training but thankfully Tarah was able to commit to house sitting/watching my 3 cats while I was away. One of my cats has bad separation anxiety and needs a lot of love and care. She sent me nuanced updates related to house issues and observations about the kitties. She is very observant and detailed in her assessments on their daily behaviors. It’s evident she has a lot of knowledge about how to keep cats relaxed and happy and as VERY anxious cat mom I’m happy to report I was not worried at all about their care while being away for so long. Ultimately, I came back to a clean house and calm and happy cats 🙏🏻”
About: Hello, if you’re reading this that must mean you’re looking for a perfect pet sitter. I have over 10 years of animal experience. I graduated college and obtained my AS degree for the vet tech field. If you’d consider me as your new rover pet sitter, I can offer nail clipping for our cats with murder mittens. I do know animal CPR and how to administer medication to the special cases. I have worked with all size cats of my own so your cat is in great hands. I also provide updated pictures while you’re away. Thank you for considering me as your Rover pet sitter and hope to hear from you soon! Have a great day!
About: I have never been without one or more cats since the age of 4. They are my spirit animal. I have been helping friends and family with sitting and medical needs officially for the last 4 years. I had a cat with hyperthyroidism that I treated with medicine daily for two years until she was 18 years old. One of my current fur babies has seizures that I monitored until becoming under control. I am willing to do just about anything to help a cat or aid in ensuring their happiness while you are away from home.
About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my 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.
“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.”
“Sue loved Joselynn! She was super sweet to him and kept me up to date on her visits with him. She even gave us a complimentary visit just because she was in the area. Would definitely book her again!”
“Krystal did a fantastic job taking care of my cat. They got to be great pals. She paid a lot of attention to her. My kitty usually runs from new humans that she doesn’t know. But she seemed immediately comfortable with Krystal. I am really happy with how things went. Krystal is trustworthy and really good with animals.”
About: Feline body language was a special interest of mine, something that I studied for fun! What I've learned makes me ideal for watching your cat, as I can help make what can be a stressful introduction for your kitty much easier. Even the most skiddish of cats have taken a liking to me, between this and my hands on experience I'm your ideal cat sitter.
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, I also plan to attend college to become a veterinary technician, so I hope you will trust me with your fur-baby!

I we’ll meet all expectations and more, I will treat animals with respect and kindness and keep them well taken care of until your return!
“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!”
About: I have tons of experience caring for my own dog and petsitting for friends while they are out of town! I love all animals especially cats and dogs.

About: I grew up with a cat in the home and got my first cat when I was 19 and living in Munich, Germany. My husband and his friend kept calling the kitten George while I was trying to come up with her name. Needless to she started answering to George. George and I made the long flight back to the states with her in a carrier under my seat. George and I had 20 wonderful years together. Since then, I have always had a least one cat in my home. I love my animals so much that I take all of my babies with me in the motorhome when I go anywhere longer than a weekend.

“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!”
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 :)
“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!”
“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!”
“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 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.
“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!”
“Josie was great! My dog immediately felt comfortable when I dropped him off. She gave updates throughout the day and was always quick to respond. I highly recommend her and would come back again.”
About: Hello 👋 and welcome! 🐾 Though I’m new to Rover, pet sitting has actually been my very first job and to this day, at my ripe age, I’m proud to say I’m still doing what I love. What began as helping out friends and family eventually blossomed into a trusted and established side business that’s been going strong for over 20 years. It’s been a journey of love, learning, and lots of wagging tails! Over the years, I’ve cared for pets of all kinds: spunky puppies, shy cats, curious kittens, and senior pets with special needs, including blind and paralyzed dogs requiring extra care and attention. I also spent a year working at a local veterinary clinic, where I received hands on training and deepened my understanding of animal health, behavior, and emergency care. From giving medications and preparing special diets to long cuddles and playful zoomies, I provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care tailored to each animal’s needs. Whether you’re heading out of town or just need a helping hand, I’d be honored to care for your beloved pets like they’re my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur (or scale!) babies soon! 🐶🐱🐰🦎 *** 𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐒𝐈𝐓 𝐅𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒, 𝐒𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒, 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐘𝐒**** Pet care is naturally built into my everyday life, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. Since I attend college fully online, I’m home throughout the day and can give your pet constant love, supervision, and attention. I build my schedule around the pets I care for, making sure their needs come first whether that’s walks, feeding, medications, playtime, or just cozy companionship. And if I ever need to step out briefly for a grocery run, doctor's appointment, or an errand, don’t worry a member of my family is always home to continue providing care and attention. So please be assured that your pet is never left unsupervised and is always in safe, loving hands. For boarding in my home, your pet becomes part of the family! I provide a clean, cozy, and loving space where they can relax, play, and stick to their usual routine. Since I attend college online, I’m home all day to provide 24/7 care potty breaks, walks, mealtimes, playtime, cuddles, and more. If I ever need to step out, a trusted family member is always home to make sure your pet is never left alone. You'll receive daily photo and video updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing. For drop-in visits, I care for your pet right in the comfort of their own home, following their routine exactly as you prefer. Each visit includes feeding, water refills, potty breaks, playtime, and love. And yes photos and videos are sent every single visit to give you peace of mind and a smile during your day! For walks, I make sure your pup gets fresh air, safe movement, and plenty of sniff time. Whether it’s a quick potty walk or a longer stroll, I tailor the pace and distance to your dog’s energy and needs. I’ll also send photos and a little walk summary with every outing so you know how it went and how your pup is feeling.

“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!”
“Matt was really nice and I felt like my dog was in good hands. He was great with communication and response times and I would definitely choose him again. My dog left happy and my family had a chance to do activities that we couldn't normally do while traveling with a dog.”
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.

“Miki was AMAZING with my adult dog Moose. She was welcoming and friendly and communicated extremely well. She sent us updates throughout the day and was very responsive. She walked my dog and took care of him like he was her own pet! She made him comfortable and he isn’t easy to trust right away but with Miki and her family Moose seemed to feel right at home. We booked her for day care 2 days, back to back, and Moose seemed excited to go back! I hope she’s available next time we need a sitter because she will be the first person that comes to mind. Thank you Miki! We appreciate you so much 😄”
“Robert is reliable, caring and will be there for your pup to help take care of them when you schedule with him. Working two jobs right now and grateful I found him to help with all the juggling. Definitely recommend 👍🏽 👍🏽”
“We had an amazing experience with Sheridan! She was incredibly caring and sweet with our pet, making sure all their needs were met throughout the day. What really stood out were the picture updates she sent, which put our minds at ease and let us see how happy and well-taken care of our pet was. We couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable and loving care for their furry friends!”

“Maria has been my first Rover experience and it is hard to imagine booking with anyone else! She has been so helpful, punctual, and caring with my boxer, Jack. She event dragged my unusually heavy Amazon packages into my apartment that were left outside my door. So thankful and happy we found Maria! 🫶🏻”

About: Hi, i’m Caleb, and I haven’t lived a single year in my life without a dog. I currently own 4 dogs at home with ages ranging from puppy to senior. I have raised 2 of them from puppyhood all the way to healthy adults. I also offer dog washing in a professional dog grooming tub, and I have 3 years of experience in dog washing. I am free to care for pets on any day of the week except Sunday. I will be available most of the time to drop in and walk dogs. I own 4 of my own dogs at home and they are safe, secure, and very much loved. My clients can be sure to expect the same experience for their own pets with my services.
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 have a deep love and respect for animals. I understand that a pet is like family to most owners so I will make sure that I will treat all of your pets with the love and care that you would as well. Detailed instructions are greatly appreciated so I can deliver the absolute best level of care. I can assure you that I will put forth the very best effort to ensure your pup is happy and healthy during the time I care for them. My schedule is quite flexible. Since my main job is within the school system, I’m usually off at 2pm and I get holidays off, as well as having the spring, thanksgiving, and summer breaks. Although I do not care for others pets in my own home, I’m very comfortable saying that not just your pet, but your home, will be greatly taken care of throughout the time I’m there.
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: I’m here to give your pet an at home experience. I’m a stay at home pet sitter & dog walker. I only take one family at a time, so you don’t have to worry about your pet being around others or not getting my full attention. I specialize in special and high needs animals. 🌈safe space🏳️🌈 I am a stay at home Wife, so I have all day to spend with your animals. This is my #1 priority all day long. I have a fully fenced in yard, and a nice cool home during warm weather. Depending on energy level we can play ball or go for walks
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

So please be assured that your pet is never left unsupervised and is always in safe, loving hands. For boarding in my home, your pet becomes part of the family! I provide a clean, cozy, and loving space where they can relax, play, and stick to their usual routine. Since I attend college online, I’m home all day to provide 24/7 care potty breaks, walks, mealtimes, playtime, cuddles, and more. If I ever need to step out, a trusted family member is always home to make sure your pet is never left alone. You'll receive daily photo and video updates so you always know how your furry friend is doing. For drop-in visits, I care for your pet right in the comfort of their own home, following their routine exactly as you prefer. Each visit includes feeding, water refills, potty breaks, playtime, and love. And yes photos and videos are sent every single visit to give you peace of mind and a smile during your day! For walks, I make sure your pup gets fresh air, safe movement, and plenty of sniff time. Whether it’s a quick potty walk or a longer stroll, I tailor the pace and distance to your dog’s energy and needs. I’ll also send photos and a little walk summary with every outing so you know how it went and how your pup is feeling.
About: I am a licensed Vet Tech who recently moved to the area. I have 10 years of experience working with a variety of animals in a clinical setting. Also, I have always had pets growing up as well. I can help you with anything from exercising your animal, boarding or even administering medications. I am new to the area and I currently have open availability. I have a dog of my own, but I am able to manage caring for your pet as well as my own. I have a fenced yard and a dog who loves to play. I can stay at your house or even have your pet stay over if needed. I currently live with my parents who are able to care for my dog if your pet needs more alone time. I can accommodate to whatever your pet needs.
About: Lifelong dog owner with experience from puppies to seniors. Caring, reliable, and patient! Trusted by family, friends, and neighbors. Skilled in walks, play, and gentle, attentive care 🥰 Hi there! I am currently a student studying Acting & Musical Theatre at PCPA Conservatory, come see our shows! 🎭 My best walk times would be in the early morning and 4:30 - 6:30pm Tuesday - Friday; however, this varies weekly so I often have more time than this! Saturday, Sunday, and Mondays I am normally completely free! I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’m great at picking up on their little signals and quirks. Additionally, I adjust each walk to match every dog’s energy! ☀️ I keep things safe and comfy for every doggie such as checking the ground temperature, making sure they stay hydrated, and letting them enjoy plenty of sniff breaks. Whether it’s a short stroll or a long adventure, I bring happy energy, lots of love, and plenty of tail wags along the way. 🐾💛
About: I've been pet sitting for many years and am an avid pet lover having had many myself! I enjoy bringing both pets and owners ease of mind, whether you travel, are an on call employee, or just need extra help in your day to day. I currently work part time and am looking to give more of my free time to helping you with your pet, my schedule is flexible which makes me perfect for extended stays, weekly walks, etc... As a former healthcare worker, I understand just how much pets provide comfort, love, and companionship. And I'm committed to assure your pet is safe so both you and your best furry friend have peace of mind. My work experience makes me an expert in upholding privacy and safety standards.
About: I foster dogs from a nearby shelter and post them on social media to find them. Families tend to focus on the “hopeless” ones. Just to show how lovable they really are and how anybody would be in a bad mood if they had to live in a cold cage. I guarantee your pets will have a blast! Unless they just like laying around all day, then we could do that too. I have school until one, but after that i’m free to hang out with your furry friend! So feel free to drop them off anytime. I like to give treats a lot so if you don’t want your pal gain a couple of pounds, that's about the only thing you have to worry about happening to your pup! At my house, dogs are always going up and down on the couches. It’s really no problem at all and I’ve got a pretty decent sized backyard with a high fence to keep them from running off and lots of parks just a light walk away!
About: For the past two years, I have been the go-to pet and house sitter for my family members whenever they travel. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes—from small, high-energy pups to large, gentle retrievers. Because I often care for family pets, I treat every dog with the deep affection, patience, and high level of responsibility that a true family member deserves. In addition to standard pet care, I am experienced with overnight house sitting. I understand how important it is to respect a home, keep things clean, and maintain a secure environment so you can travel with a peace of mind. Whether your dog requires long, active walks to burn off energy, strict adherence to a feeding schedule, or just a calm, comforting presence to be with, I adapt quickly to whatever routine keeps them happiest. I know how tough it can be to leave your pets behind, so I always make it a priority to send regular updates and cute photo check-ins! As a college student, my availability is largely open and highly flexible, especially during the summer months. I am fully available on weekends and can easily adapt to your pet's specific routine. Because my schedule allows for flexibility, I can provide plenty of dedicated playtime, consistent attention, and reliable care for your pup throughout the week and on short notice! Safety is my priority when caring for pets. In a client’s home, I ensure all doors and gates remain securely locked, closely follow all feeding and care instructions, and maintain a clean, and safe place. I keep a watchful eye during outdoor walks to ensure your pup stays safe and comfortable. Additionally, I am a proactive communicator and will always provide you with regular text updates and photos so you can have total peace of mind while you are away.
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 am also an amateur photographer so you will absolutely be receiving a great number of photos of your pets while under my care.

“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!”
“Marin is an amazing sitter, I always book with her when I have to leave town and she send many pics and updates regarding my fur baby. I highly recommend booking Marin for your pet!”
“Lauren and her family are nothing short of fantastic. They watched our 14 year old pupper, Duke, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous- but Lauren and her family made it such a positive, comforting experience. Lauren was incredibly communicative throughout the planning, and even during Duke's stay. Her family has a genuine love for animals- I can't even begin to overstate it. One of the sweetest moments? I came to pick Duke up from his sleepover and, as we were walking out the door, Duke actually walked back in just to say goodbye to the kids. That's how we knew he felt safe and happy there. We already have plans for Duke to have future sleepovers with Lauren and her family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. She and her family are absolute gems.”
“Niccola and her dogs are so great, when I picked up my dog, he was so tired from playing all day. I look forward to using her again and definitely will recommend her to anyone needing their fur babies taken care of.”

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.

“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!”
“Heidi and Phil were simply amazing. I've used rover with some other care takers and these two are head and shoulders above the rest. I got videos and pictures every day and live updates. It made me feel so comfortable that my dog was in good hands. I will be booking with them in the future. I highly recommend Heidi you won't be sorry! Thank you Heidi for taking such good care of Bailey.”
“Yulya and Troy were very accommodating and professional. We needed them in a pinch for our dog after original care fell through and they were able to take him in. Not only that, but more importantly, they took excellent care of our fur baby. Our dog is a senior and doesn't get out much these days, but he had a blast at their house and you could tell by all the photos they sent over the couple of days. Communication was great! We felt even more comfortable leaving him in their care knowing Yulya is a veterinarian tech and has years of experience! They are located on the Vandenberg base we live on and felt it was even more safe and convenient as well. We will definitely be using their care again for boarding in the future!”

“Robert was more than helpful with a short notice booking request. My dog can be a little standoff-ish with people; but, my dog had a great time with him and his family. There was definitely a lot of play time as my dog came home and zonked right out for the day. I definitely recommend Robert and his family and I will definitely be going back!”
“Adrienne is a wonderful human being. She is also a responsible, caring, affectionate and communicative sitter. I highly recommend her if you want peace of mind! We had a great experience with her caring for our fur baby. She took him on walks and even to the beach.”
“If we can recommend anybody to watch over your pup we recommend Berenisse! We left our fur baby for 3 nights 4 days with Berenisse and during that time, Berenisse was in contact with us, showing us videos and pictures of our pup and keeping us up to date with our puppy’s activities. While on vacation, Berenisse made our trip worry free and gave us that peace of mind that our puppy was in great hands. Berenisse is very knowledgeable, and professional. Thank you Berenisse for everything. We will be coming back for sure 👍🏽”

“Maddison was absolutely incredible! She’s quite the dog whisperer. It was like magic watching her effortlessly calm and handle our anxious and excited dogs. Our dogs loved her and clearly had such a great time that they almost didn’t want to leave 😂 She was super nice, friendly and communicative. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were in such great hands ☺️”
“What a great person. We were able to leave our dog Lilly and enjoy my son’s wedding weekend in SLO. This is the first overnight and weekend our Lilly has experienced in her four years of life. I think she enjoyed every minute; large backyard and an outstanding caregiver.”
