About: Experienced dog owner and sitter. Studied dog psychology to become a good dog parent. Had two female spaniels who passed earlier this year. We used to compete in dog frisbee and hunt. Also have experience working in a grooming salon, as well as walking and boarding various size dogs - from labs and German shepherds to Jack Russel terriers and mini Aussies. Additionally at no cost I can provide basic behavioural training and teach new tricks - I love to communicate with dogs of any breed and move in one rhythm with them. And I really feel their needs and able to connect with dogs of all ages. I can board puppies and older dogs, take them for a walk someplace new and play ball or frisbee. But safety and well-being is my main focus and if your dog doesn't want too much activity, I can provide a more mellow experience, too. Available on weekdays and weekends but please make appointments at least 2 days in advance. I would love to meet your furry friend! I'm working remotely from home part-time, so have lots of time to spend with doggies. I'm available both weekends and weekdays and rarely leave home for more than a couple hours, so your dog won't be alone for too long. I have a fenced backyard and deck, and two mellow spaniels to keep your doggo company. I also have a crate where your pet can rest if needed.
“Nancy was willing to watch my dog Ollie for a weekend when my work schedule changed last minute. My puppy is super energetic and she has a great walled-in yard for him to run around. She could tell I was super anxious about leaving him for the first time and sent me updates and a bunch of pictures :)”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“Bianca was super flexible and patience with my dogs. We had two dogs that don’t get along well with one another and she graciously was willing to host both dogs. The dogs came back happy and slept as soon as they came home! My dogs have never been officially dog sat before so she made us feel comfortable and at ease while she was dog sitting. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Willow who is usually reactive and scared fell into a calm routine with Yajaira and her dog Luna which is so reassuring. We appreciate the dog walk photos too. Thanks Yajaira!”
“Valentina was incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating, even when our travel was delayed. She sent adorable pictures to keep us up to date, and it was clear that our fellas were getting a lot of love and attention! We’ll definitely have Valentina at the very top of our list for future trips!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Shannon! It was our dog’s first time staying with someone other than family and we were very nervous about leaving our dog Luna in someone’s care especially for a week but Shannon was absolutely wonderful. She did an amazing job at keeping us updated and sending us pictures regularly. We were especially grateful that she was willing to accommodate our dog’s needs by being the only dog in the house since Luna isn’t always the best around other pets. Shannon and her husband gave so much love and attention to our dog and we are really excited that we have found someone that we trust and feel very comfortable leaving Luna in their care in the future.”
“Daniela and Ronan are exceptional. Their supportiveness stands out, but what truly warmed my heart was how they treated Chickoo as if he were their own dog. The frequent updates and wonderful pictures they sent me showcased their care and attention. Chickoo was absolutely joyful in their company. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.”
“Falafel loved staying with Kathleen and her family in their beautiful and cozy home. She was sensitive to Falafel’s needs as an older dog (who doesn’t know he’s an older dog) and a great communicator with fabulous photos. Looking forward to many future stays!”
“Wow simply amazing. Meghan is so kind and took incredible care of my dog Luna. I received multiple updates with photos and it brought me peace of mind since this was my first Rover experience. She took her on several walks and made Luna feel comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Meghan and I’m incredibly thankful she was able to watch Luna on such short notice.”
“Faith was a GREAT dog sitter! Buster stayed with Faith and her two cute dogs. Buster came home happy from playing with his new friends. Faith sent me pictures of Buster while at her home. I would hire Faith again in a second! Thank you, Faith!”
“Super easy to communicate with! Sent lots of pictures of Zion while I was away which I loved! Zion had the best time! Lots of hiking and activities! She even learned a few new tricks! I am very thankful for Soma!”
“Great visit! Norelvis was always responsive, kept us updated with photos and comments about how Caesar was doing throughout his stay. Nice, large space for the dogs to hang out and play. Caesar definitely had a relaxing time”
“This was a great spot for my nervous little pup. Jack takes a while to warm up in new environments but he got along well with Michael, Patty, and their two sweet pups. They clearly love dogs and are very patient and sweet with them. I hope Jack can come visit again soon!”
“Zonic was well looked after by Madhumita, she would update me with photos and sometimes video clips of Zonic every morning. I highly recommend Madhumita as she is a caring and detail person.”
“Jenna and family were great with our dogs! This was our second time leaving them and they both were happy and tired coming home after their stay! The children all pitch in to help with dog care and are clearly dog lovers! Will book again!”
“This is the second time yami has stayed with Joyce. Joyce provided frequent updates about how yami was doing and her family showed yami a lot of care and attention.”
“Steve took great care of my dog and my dog loved being there. Steve kept me updated and sent me pictures of dog. Highly recommend Steve and will be rebooking with him for next time.”

“Lara is always wonderful. This was our longest trip so far, and everything went smoothly--especially given that we abandoned her to a heat wave we hadn't anticipated. Not a single complaint! The cats were totally relaxed when we got home, the house was spotless. Lara updated us daily with photos and comments, and I didn't have a single worry the whole time we were gone. <3”
“Sara was amazing with our three cats when we went out of town. She spent time playing with all of them even our grumpy hard to find kitty. She kept us updated on the weather so we could make sure they kept cool during a surprise heatwave and made sure we knew all the changes in the house while we were gone. I highly recommend her to care for your pets, she truly treats them as her own.”
“We couldn't be happier with the amazing job that Luna did! Luna checked in with us daily, and helped keep our cats calm. When we arrived home the litter boxes were clean and the cats were happy. Luna was very thorough and reliable. It was nice to feel at ease while we were away knowing that our fur babies were being well cared for. We will certainly be hiring Luna again.”
“Morgan went above and beyond with our cat. She gave thorough updates and sent several pictures each visit. She did everything we asked of her and more! I'm very thankful to have found Morgan for watching our cat! We'll definitely be booking with her again.”
“Carmen is kind, courteous, and respectful and she communicates very well; best of all she works well with our two spoiled cats. She Spoils them! We hope to use her again soon. thanks!”

“Noemi was amazing with our two shy cats. She took care of them for 3 weeks while we were away. It is very clear that she genuinely loves cats and understands their personalities and boundaries. They both warmed up to her, which says a lot! We appreciated the daily photos and felt completely comfortable knowing our cats were with someone so cat-focused and caring. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”

“Bianca was so great with Olive! Her communication and care for her was fantastic. She understood olives quirks and put our tips and commands to work. I had a last minute meeting come up and she extended the sit without issue. So happy to have found and met Bianca!”
“Nancy definitely receives a 6 star review! Loved Nancy and her pups at the meet and greet before I dropped my puppy. I received pictures of my puppy, Hali'a, throughout the day which gave me piece of mind that she was happy. When I picked her up after 12 hours, Hali'a was pretty tired . A pooped puppy is a good puppy. We will definitely be seeing Nancy again❣️”

About: I've had dogs most of my adult life and currently have a little Shichon named Ruby. We have a smoke free home with a fenced yard and doggie door. We take our pup out for daily walks. I'm home full time unless I'm working in Canada in the healthcare field and so would need to work around that. I usually work 2-3 weeks every 2 months.

“My 90-pound boy just spend three days with Shannon for daycare. This was his second visit with her and her wonderful family, and we couldn't be happier with them! My pup was happy and relaxed at the end of the day, they took him for lots of walks, and Shannon was great with communication. He can't wait to go back!”
“Thank you so much for watching Fifi on such short notice and being so patient with my delayed drop off time. I appreciate all of the prompt communication and pictures, and I could tell Fifi was happy and comfortable. I cannot thank you again enough. 🙏 💕”
“My dog doesn’t do change very well. Lauren worked with Buddy to calm him naturally and it not only made him feel safe, but for me to trust he would be ok. She adapted to changes to the scheduled stay and exceed my expectations for going with the flow. She was over generous with her time (10 hours) and didn’t suggest we paid her more. Of course I did but it was my choice. For the first time working with Lauren I give 5 out of 5 stars. I definitely would request her services again. Thank you Lauren”
“I cannot recommend Daniela enough for anyone in need of pet care services! I recently had the pleasure of entrusting her with the care of my two puppies for a day, and I couldn't be more impressed with her level of care and attention to detail. From the moment I dropped off my fur babies, it was evident that Daniela genuinely loves animals. She greeted them with warmth and made them feel right at home, which instantly put my mind at ease. Throughout the day, she went above and beyond to ensure that they were comfortable, safe, and happy. Daniela is incredibly sweet, attentive, and responsible. She provided regular updates, including photos and messages, which I greatly appreciated. It was clear that she treated my puppies as if they were her own. If you're looking for someone who will treat your pets with the love and attention they deserve, look no further than Daniela. I will definitely be returning to her for future pet care needs! Thank you, Daniela for your exceptional service and for taking such great care of my puppies!”

About: I have taken care of pets for quite some time. I grew up on a farm, so I have been around all sorts of animals all my life. I recently moved back here to the valley from Santa Cruz. Will be here for a year or so. When I was in Santa Cruz I volunteer for the animal shelter there.

I have a fenced yard, but I am not doing pet care at my home at this time. I am sharing home with family members
“Lara is very communicative and easy to work with. One of my dogs is very skittish and slow to warm up with new people, and the other is very large and over exuberant, and Lara has been great with them both. My dogs enjoy her visits and are always quiet and restful throughout the evening when she comes. And I love knowing they're not stuck inside all day. I'll definitely use Lara again.”

About: Hello and thanks for stopping by! I’m Sarah and would love to take care of your furry friends! I love all animals. I have had a life time of experience with beautiful critters, having grown up caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and more. I have taken care of countless pups and cats over many decades; safety and love have always been paramount when animals are in my care. I am currently offering the following services: boarding in your home, dog walking and home visits 😊 I have experience with a wide variety of pups (and kitties) from 5lb chihuahuas to a large Italian mastiff! I am comfortable with medication administration, exercise, senior dog/kitty care and any special needs or requests. In addition, I, of course, will take immaculate care of your home while pet sitting. I am all about learning the routine of your pup(s) and/or kitty(ies) so you can travel or be work stress free. I will take daily pictures/videos of your pets with detailed updates. I’m happy to set up a meet and greet at your convenience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends. Numerous references available upon request. Some examples of pet care jobs I have done are: for a cat named Kona. A kind and curious fellow on the island of St John, USVI. As well as caring for Kona, I managed the owners home, property, and vehicles. Kona and I loved cuddling on the porch in the cool island breeze together! Another, Annabelle, a large Italian Mastiff. She loved going on long walks by the river near her home in Connecticut. She also loved chewing on special bones I was permitted by her owner to give her. She required a weekly bath/shower which was messy but fun! A third example are Gracie and Monti, both medium sized rescues. Gracie had a lot of energy and walking was a must sometimes several times a day. She and I would go on long walks on trails and she enjoyed wading in water to cool off after a long walk. Monti on the other hand was a dignified little fellow. He was one to stop and smell the roses and everything along the way :) Monti had back surgery so needed to be lifted in and out of car and needed to be monitored so as to not jump up and re-injure his spine. Lastly, Jet Jet was a frisky rescue cat. He loved to play and cuddle and roll in fresh cat nip! I have cared for many more pets and their owners homes. Looking forward to hearing from you! xo, Sarah I work full time as a pet care provider. I am available for lengthy home stays as requested. I also do as many as 4 home visits and day and stay in shape with plenty of dog walking. :) Meeting the needs of a variety of pets is a huge part of my daily routine- I love it! I look forward to hearing from you. Sarah I follow instructions as to what you, the pet owner, would like done while I am with your pet. I can be reached by phone when I am walking, feeding, or cuddling with your dog or cat. I am excellent at following what protocol you have outlined for your pet. Safety and love are paramount when I am caring for your pet.

About: I adopted my dog at 6 weeks old and he has not gotten out of the puppy phase until he was 4 years old. Throughout those years I've learned to redirect his attention onto something else using treats and words that he can understand. I handle more active/ hyper dogs well during walks and occasionally like to run with them too to burn some energy. Im currently a full- time student with the afternoons free everyday. I have no class on Tuesday and Thursday so I can my spend time with dogs full-time those days! As well as weekends. I like to prioritize enrichment/play and food when I care for a pet because feeding time varies based on each animal. Play time is also important because it's their enrichment time and it is what will tire the pet the best way possible at the end of the day. Play time also allows me to bond with the pet and enjoy my time doing so. I find it be the most rewarding part of taking care of pets.

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“Bianca was super flexible and patience with my dogs. We had two dogs that don’t get along well with one another and she graciously was willing to host both dogs. The dogs came back happy and slept as soon as they came home! My dogs have never been officially dog sat before so she made us feel comfortable and at ease while she was dog sitting. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Willow who is usually reactive and scared fell into a calm routine with Yajaira and her dog Luna which is so reassuring. We appreciate the dog walk photos too. Thanks Yajaira!”
“Valentina was incredibly responsive, kind, and accommodating, even when our travel was delayed. She sent adorable pictures to keep us up to date, and it was clear that our fellas were getting a lot of love and attention! We’ll definitely have Valentina at the very top of our list for future trips!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for Shannon! It was our dog’s first time staying with someone other than family and we were very nervous about leaving our dog Luna in someone’s care especially for a week but Shannon was absolutely wonderful. She did an amazing job at keeping us updated and sending us pictures regularly. We were especially grateful that she was willing to accommodate our dog’s needs by being the only dog in the house since Luna isn’t always the best around other pets. Shannon and her husband gave so much love and attention to our dog and we are really excited that we have found someone that we trust and feel very comfortable leaving Luna in their care in the future.”
“Falafel loved staying with Kathleen and her family in their beautiful and cozy home. She was sensitive to Falafel’s needs as an older dog (who doesn’t know he’s an older dog) and a great communicator with fabulous photos. Looking forward to many future stays!”
“Wow simply amazing. Meghan is so kind and took incredible care of my dog Luna. I received multiple updates with photos and it brought me peace of mind since this was my first Rover experience. She took her on several walks and made Luna feel comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Meghan and I’m incredibly thankful she was able to watch Luna on such short notice.”
“Faith was a GREAT dog sitter! Buster stayed with Faith and her two cute dogs. Buster came home happy from playing with his new friends. Faith sent me pictures of Buster while at her home. I would hire Faith again in a second! Thank you, Faith!”
“Great visit! Norelvis was always responsive, kept us updated with photos and comments about how Caesar was doing throughout his stay. Nice, large space for the dogs to hang out and play. Caesar definitely had a relaxing time”
“Zonic was well looked after by Madhumita, she would update me with photos and sometimes video clips of Zonic every morning. I highly recommend Madhumita as she is a caring and detail person.”
“Jenna and family were great with our dogs! This was our second time leaving them and they both were happy and tired coming home after their stay! The children all pitch in to help with dog care and are clearly dog lovers! Will book again!”
“Steve took great care of my dog and my dog loved being there. Steve kept me updated and sent me pictures of dog. Highly recommend Steve and will be rebooking with him for next time.”
“We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful and dedicated dog sitter than Qi. From the very beginning, she demonstrated genuine care, attentiveness, and professionalism in looking after our beloved dog, Bear. It was immediately clear that she treats every pet as if they were her own. Qi went above and beyond to ensure Bear was not only well cared for, but also happy, comfortable, and loved while we were away. She kept us updated with regular messages and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Her attention to detail, reliability, and warm nature truly set her apart. When we returned, Bear was relaxed, content, and clearly had formed a bond with her—a true testament to the exceptional level of care she provides. We are incredibly grateful for Qi and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, compassionate, and truly exceptional in pet care. Thank you so much, Qi! We are hoping to book with you again soon, I know Bear can’t wait to see you again!”
“My dog had a fantastic time! He played with other dogs and was in a great mood when I picked him up. I also really appreciated the regular updates and photos—it was so reassuring and thoughtful.”
“We have left our dog to stay with Diane several times and we've had an amazing experience each time! She has a huge backyard that our dog loves exploring and playing in. Diane sends us an update each day with some pictures she snapped of our boy having a fun time. We feel so safe and secure leaving our boy with Diane, she's always our first pick if we need to go out of town!”
“It’s like doggy summer camp at Anastasias! Your dog is taken care of the kindest couple, in the most beautiful surroundings, with a gaggle of dogs and chickens and other animals. The best dog sitters we’ve had-you will feel so at ease knowing your dog is in his/her happy place.”
“Anusha took care of our 1 year old puppy when we were in vacation. She kept us informed everyday with lot of pictures. Zoey came home very calm and relaxed as she got enough play time with the whole family and lot of love. She also got a goody bag 😃. Thanks a lot Anusha.”
