“Angela gave daily updates and was quick to respond to messages, which put me at ease when Bruce stayed with her and Jazzy for a week. I saw videos of him running happily outside and cuddling up next to her so I know he felt comfortable there!”

“My dog Kee Kee is 14 and deaf and I was so worried to leave her. I met with Julie and just felt she would be the right person to leave Kee Kee with. We also did an hour visit one day before leaving to make sure it would be a good match. Julie sent me pictures of Kee Kee everyday to let me know how she was doing. When I picked her up she was happy and I knew she had been well cared for. Julie was the best and I strongly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving person and home to leave their precious fur family member with.”

“Alexis and her partner are dog lovers. They took good care of our dog playing catch with him an endless number of times and made sure he was well fed. If we need a dog sitter, we will definitely book with them in the future.”

“It was a great pleasure to have Rachel and Jason taking care of our pup ‘Hugo’. They took wonderful care of him and we would definitely recommend reaching out to them if you need a good place to house your pet.”

“Doh was an absolute lifesaver taking care of Dodger last minute. She was very responsive, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease during his stay. This was Dodger’s first time boarding overnight with someone else, and she did an amazing job keeping me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how he was doing. I truly appreciated her communication and care, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Kendra goes beyond what is expected to make sure your dog is happy, healthy, and well cared for. I don't think my dog could have been in better hands. I would not hesitate to use her.”

“Serena and Wes were amazing with our dogs, River and Fin. They had a staycation at Serena's house while we hosted a large birthday party for our son. Serena sent loads of photos and the dogs came home totally exhausted from all of the play. Will absolutley use them again!”

“Laura took such good care of my cat Shiny and made all the accommodations she needed. She even checked in and sent me a couple updates with photos. Thank you Laura for making my vacation worry free!”

“Derek and Leslie took care of Ozzy on the 4th of July. Ozzy is scared of fireworks and is also a big dog but they even let him pay on their bed for comfort and I really appreciate them for it!”

“This was my first time leaving Sawyer over the weekend and using Rover in general. I was so nervous but Wyne made it easy! She kept me up to date with many pictures and reassurance in answering questions on how he was doing. Sawyer had a great time playing with the other dogs and although he has that playful puppy spirit Wyne did a wonderful job in handling him. Thanks for everything Wyne!”

“Adrienne was absolutely amazing with our 9 week old pitty and we won't be looking to anyone else in the future! She treated her like she was her own and sent frequent updates, pics and even videos! Highly recommend her to anyone wanting amazing care for their fur baby.”

“Erin and Devin took such amazing care of our dog, Kody, while we were away. Kody is usually pretty anxious, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving him—but he absolutely loved being with them. It was clear from the updates that he felt comfortable, happy, and right at home. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation stress-free, which means everything. We’re so grateful to have found Erin and Devin and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Kody again. Highly recommend!”


“I was nervous leaving Ollie with a new sitter since he’s so used to having me or my fiancé home with him, but Ekaterina was amazing. She sent lots of photos and regular updates, which really put my mind at ease. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and very calm. It was clear he was well cared for. I would definitely recommend Ekaterina and would happily book with her again!”

About: Our three rescues recently traveled to the rainbow bridge after 13 years in our home. We are not ready to fill our home permanently, but are emotionally available to love on your babies while you’re gone. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I have many years of pet sitting and house sitting including dogs, cats, fish, and bunnies. I know firsthand how expensive pet boarding is, not to mention stressful, so I am here to make traveling and being away easier. I work very part time and stay home with my kids, so I am available regularly and have an extremely flexible schedule for accommodating needs. We have a one story home with a large fenced in yard for safe exploring and sun bathing. Our home is currently pet free, so your pets would have full control of the place!
“Nancy was perfect! I didn’t worry or fret about my dog’s well being and had a stress free night out away! It was our first time being separated over night. He did great, largely, I’m sure because of Nancy ! He will be staying with her again for sure.”

“This is the first time that I've used Johnna, and all have to say is the cats warmed up to her immediately. Is she a pet whisperer? Everything went smoothly and she did everything I asked. She cleaned up litter messes and took it out to our outside garbage can so there was no litter smells when we got home. She spent time playing with them and even got my anxious cat to warm up to her. Definitely recommend her!”

“Jasmine was absolutely amazing! She has a great backyard for the dogs to run around. She sent pictures and videos everyday and Shasta always looked so happy. I will definitely be contacting Jasmine again to care for our sweet girl!”


“One of the best dog sitters I’ve had! She took care of my dog in her home like he was part of their family. Sent so many great pictures and updates which put me at ease during my dog’s first stay with Christany and her family. Quick responses. Rebooked already for another stay! We appreciate this warm and loving home!”

About: I've owned cats nearly my whole life, and currently have three of my own. All of my cats have been rescues and I am very passionate towards giving shelter and senior cats second chances 💕 I am frequently asked by neighbors and family members to help take care of their cats whenever needed. I aim only to make a safe and comfortable space, away from any dangers and other animals to ensure every kitty is nothing but content in my care. ❤

About: Having lived with and cared for cats for most of my life, I understand their unique behaviors and needs. I’m especially skilled at bonding with shy or reserved cats, giving them the space and patience they need to feel comfortable. Whether it's maintaining their feeding routines, providing enrichment through play, or making sure they have a clean and stress-free environment, I tailor my care to each cat’s personality. From playful kittens to senior cats who need extra attention, I ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I provide regular updates with photos, stick to your pet’s routine as closely as possible, and treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry friend is receiving reliable, compassionate, and personalized care. I am a full time student all online! I have a reliable car! I am a night owl! Can be a morning riser when needed! I know when my old boy is not feeling well, hot or just need to eat. I have him for 11 years and since he was 8 weeks old! I went through the puppy stage and now while he my old man.
About: Hello! I specialize in caring for cats and big dogs, but I love all animals. I especially love cuddly and low energy pets. I’ve taken care of neighbors’ pets for a few years and now would like to expand my pet sitting services. I currently have two cats and have grown up with dogs as well. I’m a full time college student, currently attending night classes Monday-Wednesday. I’m available for walks and drop-ins in the morning and early afternoon on these days. Scheduling overnights on these days depend on how frequently your pets need check ins. Thursday-Sunday I’m available all day to give your pets the attention they need! Your pet’s happiness and safety is my top priority. I take the time to get to know your pets and understand what they need from my visit, whether it’s high energy playtime or cuddles and belly rubs.
“Jessica was very reliable and took good care of my two kitties. She took lots of pictures during each visit so I could see my little ones while away. I can tell she really cares and takes pride in her work with animals.”


“Johnna once again made it possible for us to do a really important trip to care for relatives. We are so grateful to her. We could not do everything we have to do right now without her. We know she will simply always take care of our animals, and we never have to worry.”

About: I've taken care of animals from a young age and it has always been a passion of mine! I have mostly cared for my own cats and dogs, but recently have had some experience pet setting for family and friends. I'm an active person and would love to take your pup on long walks. I am also available for drop in visits and feedings for both cats and dogs. I am currently working partime, so I am available to care for your pets Tuesday/Wednesday any time, and after 1pm any other day of the week! I currently live in an apartment so I am unable to board any animals other than my own, but if you would like me to do drop in visits for your pet I am available! I can feed your animals, take them for walks, or just show them some attention while you are away!
About: Growing up with dogs, I have provided lifelong care for them from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me deep experience in their unique needs. I am fully capable of administering medications, and I am highly diligent about following specific feeding and exercise schedules. My background ensures I provide consistent, reliable, and compassionate care for your pet, treating them with the same love and attention I have dedicated to my own dogs throughout my years of experience. I'm currently working a flexible schedule, which means I have plenty of availability to give your pets my undivided attention! I am available on weekends and weekdays. For services like dog walking or drop-in visits at the client's home, I provide attentive and reliable care. I focus on maintaining the pet's routine, ensuring they get exercise, and providing companionship. I'm skilled at adapting to different pet personalities and environments, always prioritizing their safety and happiness during our time together.
“Great communication and care for our two cats. Laura was consistent with her visits and totally delivered on our expectations. We received regular updates and photos, and Laura made sure our property was secure and in order, and most importantly that our little fur balls were getting some love (and treats!) in our absence. We have a particularly grumpy cat, on the older side, and Laura was able to coax some personality out of her when other's cannot. Would book again. Thanks!”

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I have two pups of my own and have cared for dogs for friends, family, and Rover clients for years. I have experience with puppies, seniors, energetic dogs, and everything in between. What sets me apart is that I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of dogs and meeting them where they’re at. I understand that not every dog is going to be an easygoing, perfectly trained pup and that’s okay! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, energetic dogs, strong pullers, reactive dogs, medication needs, crate training, and finicky eaters. I’m patient and willing to take the extra time needed to build trust, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I also work from home, so when my schedule allows, your pup gets plenty of companionship rather than being left alone for most of the day. I provide regular updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and being well cared for. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality. My goal isn’t just to “watch your dog”, it’s to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️ 🐾 Currently accepting bookings! I currently have open availability to care for your pups’ needs! Walks, belly rubs, playtime, and photo updates are always included. I treat every pet in my care like family and want you to feel confident that they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My Schedule & Availability I’m a full-time student and full-time remote employee, which means I’m fortunate to spend a lot of time at home with the pets I care for. My weekly schedule: - Tuesday & Thursday: At UC Davis (10am-2pm) - Wednesday: Half-day work from home, home by 2pm - Monday & Friday: Full-time work-from-home - Weekends: Work-from-home My remote schedule allows me to provide plenty of companionship, attention, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins while still maintaining my work and school responsibilities. 🏡 Weekend House Sitting: Because I work remotely on weekends, I do require reliable Wi-Fi access in your home for weekend house-sitting bookings. This allows me to continue working while remaining at home with your pets and providing attentive care throughout the day. 📅 Please message me directly before booking so we can confirm that the requested dates and times work for both of us. I also have clients who book with me outside of Rover, so while I do my best to keep my Rover calendar updated, it may not always reflect my most current availability. I’m always happy to chat about your pets, their routines, and what they need to feel comfortable and loved while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I have two friendly dogs of my own who can provide companionship when appropriate, but I’m also happy to keep pets separate if that’s what makes them most comfortable. I’m comfortable caring for finicky eaters, dogs who need extra support on leash, and pets with medication requirements. I’m also happy to follow your preferred feeding, walking, and care routines as closely as possible. I have crates available if your pet is crate trained, prefers a crate for downtime, or is currently working on crate training. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable environment where your pets can stick to their normal routine and feel at home while you’re away.

About: I’ve had cats and kittens since I was little I have bottle fed and raised kittens I’ve rescued. I’ve also rescued a separate litter of feral kittens that grew up to be the most loving babies!!
About: Leaving your pup is tough—I get it! That’s why I make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and spoiled while you’re away. Whether your pup is full of energy or prefers lazy snuggles, I tailor care to their personality.

We offer: Boarding, daycare, drop-ins & walks A large fenced yard Frozen lick mats for a fun treat (with your okay!)

“Julie has been absolutely wonderful! She has been very flexible, kind and sends lots of photos of my pups. She always has lots of playmates for my two dogs and they always come home looking like they had a blast and ready for a nap. I couldn't recommend Julie enough.”

“This was my puppy’s first time at day care with Katy or any sitter outside of friends and family. I let Katy know ahead of time that I was nervous to leave my puppy with someone she didn’t know and she might be nervous as well being in an unfamiliar place. Katy said she could work with my puppy’s nerves and pre approved with me giving her treats! My puppy had so much fun playing fetch with Katy’s dogs and exploring her yard. Katy was very communicative and sent lots of pics and videos of my girl. I would recommend her to anyone that is looking for a local sitter.”

“Kerstin took excellent care of my young pup! My options were limited for my three month old pup and we were able to connect quickly. She followed my instructions well and has even help train my pup to be gentle when giving treats! My dog has so much fun that when I puck him up, he doesn't want to leave lol! He is happy and tired by the time we get home I highly recommend!!”

About: Hi, I'm Anna! I am a passionate, highly trained animal lover dedicated to giving your pet the safest and most fun experience possible. Since March, I have been an active volunteer with the Sacramento SPCA, where I have completed intensive online courses and hands-on, in-person training in canine behavior, body language, and socialization. I am fully certified to handle and walk the shelter's Green and Orange color-coded dogs. Because of my training and reliability, the SPCA also trusts me with their Foster Furlough program for their highest-need Pink color-coded dogs. This means I regularly take these advanced-level dogs out of the shelter environment for day trips and overnight stays in my home to give them a break. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, structured socialization, or just an attentive and loving overnight companion, I know exactly how to read their body language and keep them safe in real-world situations. I have a very flexible part-time schedule, my own reliable vehicle for check-ins, and a deep commitment to following your exact house rules and routines. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I don’t work so I’m home pretty much all time unless I’m running errands. I’m available Tuesday-sat to come and help out with your babies!! I have a fenced yard but always prefer to watch them while there going potty or playing! I’d also be able to crate them if needed:)
“Nico had the best day with Wyne. She sent photos throughout the day which eased my one as this was his first doggie daycare experience. He came home happy and tired from playing and that is all win in my book!”
“Sammy was great! Took my boy at the last minute and was so good with him, and as an owner of an Akita, she did so well and put us at ease while we enjoyed our music festival. Would highly recommend her and if we are back in Sacramento will definitely reach out to her again”

About: Mom, animal-lover, and detail-oriented caregiver offering safe, loving pet care. Your pets are treated like family and given care. I work from home, so the animals will not be alone. Please note I have a Kindergartener so animals *must* be kid friendly. No aggressive breeds (even if a mix), or history of biting. your pet will have plenty of attention throughout the day—not long stretches alone. I also have a kindergartner who absolutely loves animals and enjoys having a gentle buddy to play with. We take daily walks to break up our day, so your pet will get regular movement, fresh air, and lots of love in between. Pets in my care are treated like part of the family. We have a large, fully fenced backyard perfect for safe outdoor play, exploring, and burning off energy. Since I work from home, pets get plenty of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day—plus lots of playtime, cuddles, and regular breaks to keep them happy and engaged. 🐾
“We had a fantastic experience with Alexis and her family. Bonnie loved spending the day playing with the kids and other dogs. Communication with Alexis was also great - we’d happily book again!”

“Marianne was great. Easy to communicate with and responsive. Our pup was happy and worn out when we picked her up. Looking forward to leaving Winnie in her capable hands again!”

“Our 1-year-old wheaten terrier enjoyed his time with Monica. He came home happy and ready to rest after a day of playing. Monica kept us updated on Chewys progress during the day and communicated well with us. I would definitely recommend Monica to care for your pup!”

“Johnna took such great care of Luna. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in good hands. We received pictures and updates that kept us feeling confident in her care. Thank you Johnna!”

About: I have had dogs all my life growing up. Honestly - there has never been a year in my life where I have not owned a dog. I have experience with small dogs to large dogs. I have volunteered for several shelters when I was younger. I have cared for senior dogs and dogs who have cancer. My dogs are spoiled and honestly, they are not pets but family. I love my dogs unconditionally the way they love me. I currently work from home all week. I am free to play, run around, and walk my furry family throughout the day. I am usually home during the day, in the evenings and on weekends. I have a fenced yard. The yard is large and has grass and play toys. I have two furry family dogs to keep your pet company as well. My home is dog friendly with multiple dog beds, toys, and treats. I have extra crates, leashes, harnesses, treats, bowls, and blankets.
About: Having been through some pretty big life changes recently, I’m reminded to slow down and focus on things that make me happy. One thing that makes me happy is dogs. I’ve also wanted to get out and take more walks, so what better way to enjoy both than dog walking. I’ve had pets of all types all my life, but dogs are hands down my favorite. I currently have two of my own and occasionally watch my friends’ dogs. A friend of mine uses Rover, and I’ve been a pet sitter since I was a teen, so I thought I’d give it a try. I have taken a few training classes when my dog was a puppy and I have some experience with special needs (seniors, blindness, low mobility, and seizures). I work full time, but telework three days a week. For midday visits and dog walks, someone close to home would be best to ensure availability. We can always discuss evening visits or walks as well. For boarding, unless discussed and scheduled prior, weekends would best to ensure I can be home with your fur babe. I treat visiting pups like my own. They’re allowed on my furniture and in my bed. I have multiple crates of various sizes if a crate is needed. My yard is fenced, but dogs aren’t typically left unattended in the yard. I have seven free range chickens in my yard, so their safety is also a concern for me. I’m also open to discussion if your dogs’ needs don’t align with my typical routine; I don’t mind changing things up if it’s something I can accommodate.
“Ann and Steve are so great! Ann allowed us to do a meet & greet to check out her backyard and to get to know our dogs. She does not have pets and prefers to sit one pet family at a time. Awesome right? Ann is very knowledgeable with dogs, patient and so very kind. Ann sent pics of Sasuke and Winston. You can tell Sasuke was happy to be there. Winston is just shy overall but warmed up to Ann and Steve. I would definitely book with Ann again. She is one of the best sitters.”

“Nelly is always great with our Zoey, who is shy and anxious around strangers and new environments. Zoey stayed for the day and we got picture updates reassuring us she was doing well. Nelly also had very helpful advice on feeding picky eaters like our little princess. She genuinely cares for the pets she's entrusted with and we are fortunate to have found her.”

About: I have been caring for pets for about 10 years. I treat every pet like children after all they are family. I am flexible and reliable. I have been teaching for over 14 years now. I never leave guests home alone. While I’m at work, my 19-year-old son loves hanging out with our guests. I am a kind and caring person. My home is safe and secure for my guests. Please let me know if you have any questions. I work part time and I’m off all summer. Im home most of the time. No pet will be left unattended for more than two hours. I have a fenced yard that is secure and safe. I live in a beautiful neighborhood for nice walks. I have a large front yard.
“My puppy and I are so very happy when he has a play date with Kendra. She is the best! She makes sure he is safe and loved and he has so much fun when he’s there! Kendra is such a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much, Kendra!”

“Raina has done a wonderful job walking our dog. We had a lot of additional details and she can be a bit of a high maintenance pup and Raina took it all in stride. Our pup loves her and her walks!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a child. I have taken care of family members dogs, newborn pups, potty trained, taken care of senior dogs who need assistance with getting on and off the couch or give them their meds. I have previously dogsat/housesat for about 2 1/2 weeks. I work from home so I am able to relocate where needed. I have time early mornings or afternoon/evenings. I am available weekends and holidays. I make sure dogs are taking naps when needed, so if they are crate trained I make sure after play time or walking they get naps. In my home and clients home we follow a schedule for feeding and potty breaks. Usually enjoy going for walks during lunch time and evenings. During weekends tend to go to the park or for longer walks.

About: I’ve had many, many pets over the years. Dogs, cats, birds. After our daughters were grown and our last cat passed on we decided to be pet free for a while. While there are advantages to not having animals (being able to leave home without the worry), I miss them and thought this might be a way to fill the pet void. I am retired and so I am free to feed, walk and play with your cats and/or dogs. I look forward to meeting them. I am not taking care of pets in my home at this time but happy to come to your home and spend time, feed and walk your pets.

Since March, I have been an active volunteer with the Sacramento SPCA, where I have completed intensive online courses and hands-on, in-person training in canine behavior, body language, and socialization. I am fully certified to handle and walk the shelter's Green and Orange color-coded dogs. Because of my training and reliability, the SPCA also trusts me with their Foster Furlough program for their highest-need Pink color-coded dogs. This means I regularly take these advanced-level dogs out of the shelter environment for day trips and overnight stays in my home to give them a break. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk, structured socialization, or just an attentive and loving overnight companion, I know exactly how to read their body language and keep them safe in real-world situations. I have a very flexible part-time schedule, my own reliable vehicle for check-ins, and a deep commitment to following your exact house rules and routines. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! I don’t work so I’m home pretty much all time unless I’m running errands. I’m available Tuesday-sat to come and help out with your babies!! I have a fenced yard but always prefer to watch them while there going potty or playing! I’d also be able to crate them if needed:)
About: For the past 4 years when I came home from college, I would make sure to spend quality time with my two dogs by taking them to the dog park at least 2 days a week, playing and giving them pets because I have found this is how my dogs feel most loved. In high school I was often asked by my neighbors and family friends to watch their dogs (who often had separation anxiety). In these cases, for the hours I would check up on them or the nights I spent over I would play make sure to always be in the same space as them, keep talking to them lovingly and giving them pets. I just graduated from college and am looking for something short term before I find an internship or job. I am available from 6am to 6pm on weekdays and possibly certain weekends (: I am open to staying overnight if needed. At my client's house, neighborhood or park nearby I would give attentive care to their pet by playing, talking, and giving them pets to make sure they feel loved.
“We have a sweet but anxious little rescue dog. He doesn't like anything new or out of the routine, and he doesn't like anyone but his ONE human. David was able to help him feel less insecure, and now he has one one human on the (short) list of humans he can trust. THANKS, David, for helping our Buster feel secure!”
About: I have taken care of multiple dogs since a young age. Unfortunately all my childhood friends have passed on and I am not currently able to house a pet. Dogs make me very joyous! Anytime I see a pup in public I love being able to say hi! They truly make my day all the better. I am a student who would enjoy to spend my extra time caring for someone’s animal. Having a pet is a great way for me to get outside and enjoy the weather. At the moment I have the most open schedule I have had in years and would like to be able to help make a dog or cats day by taking them out or keeping them some company. I do not care for dogs within my own home. From previous experience I am usually left a list or the parents take me through their routine. I am always more than happy to accommodate to the pets needs.
“Have had Isabella dog walking service for a few months now, and I am still thrilled with her service! She's super attentive for my pup and I've seen such a growth in independence and potty training since having her. Thanks a million again, Isabella!”

About: Ever since childhood, I have always been surrounded by pets, from big animals, to cats and dogs. I can do everything from walks in the park to giving them baths. proper pet care is something important for your pets well being Currently I am enrolled in college at Sacramento State, my summer classes are online so there is time to check on your animals between my classes. How I care for my dog Is that she gets feed once in the morning and once at night. when I have time before class, excluding Monday and Wednesday this semester, I take my pup on at least a 20 min walk. She spends most her time outside, but sleeps inside at night.

About: I have taken care of my husky malamute mix for over 8 years. Because of him, I’ve learned to look after a large, stubborn dog who is difficult to control. As a result, I have to ability to handle unexpected scenarios. I love working with all dogs and as usually as excited as they are to play and go for walks :) I’m mostly available evenings during the week or very early in the morning, while on weekends I have a lot of availability. I’m an engineering student at UC Davis, and I’m involved on campus and in the local community. I want to help you and your dog, and I can promise lots of communication with you and lots of love for your dog.
About: I have had dogs (and cats) my entire life. Trained, love and traveled across the US with my animals in tow with me. We currently have two dogs, Ozzy & Bear. I am retired and love to garden, travel and play with our dogs! We moved back to the Sacramento Area recently and would like to do something fun and thought pet sitting would fit perfect. No pet sitting at our house. Animals need to be in their own environment where it is safe and they are comfortable with their own toys & bed.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life & cannot imagine life without one. My current fur baby is a 4 year old black lab & I’ve learned a lot about dog training over the last 4 years. Dogs need physical and mental stimulation every day & they rely on their humans for everything. Please allow me to love, entertain, & care for your fur babies whenever you are not available. I’m happy to be their second best friend. I’m currently a stay at home mom to 2 humans & 1 Labrador Retriever. I am available weekdays before 3pm with some flexibility 3-5pm. Available for meet & greet Saturday or Sunday. I will take notes on any special instructions or requests you have. Every pet has a different play style & individual needs so I aim to treat each one in a way that makes them (& you) happy.

“Alexis and her partner are dog lovers. They took good care of our dog playing catch with him an endless number of times and made sure he was well fed. If we need a dog sitter, we will definitely book with them in the future.”

“It was a great pleasure to have Rachel and Jason taking care of our pup ‘Hugo’. They took wonderful care of him and we would definitely recommend reaching out to them if you need a good place to house your pet.”

“Doh was an absolute lifesaver taking care of Dodger last minute. She was very responsive, attentive, and made me feel completely at ease during his stay. This was Dodger’s first time boarding overnight with someone else, and she did an amazing job keeping me updated with pictures and messages letting me know how he was doing. I truly appreciated her communication and care, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

“Kendra goes beyond what is expected to make sure your dog is happy, healthy, and well cared for. I don't think my dog could have been in better hands. I would not hesitate to use her.”

“Serena and Wes were amazing with our dogs, River and Fin. They had a staycation at Serena's house while we hosted a large birthday party for our son. Serena sent loads of photos and the dogs came home totally exhausted from all of the play. Will absolutley use them again!”

“Derek and Leslie took care of Ozzy on the 4th of July. Ozzy is scared of fireworks and is also a big dog but they even let him pay on their bed for comfort and I really appreciate them for it!”

“This was my first time leaving Sawyer over the weekend and using Rover in general. I was so nervous but Wyne made it easy! She kept me up to date with many pictures and reassurance in answering questions on how he was doing. Sawyer had a great time playing with the other dogs and although he has that playful puppy spirit Wyne did a wonderful job in handling him. Thanks for everything Wyne!”

“Erin and Devin took such amazing care of our dog, Kody, while we were away. Kody is usually pretty anxious, so we’re always a bit nervous leaving him—but he absolutely loved being with them. It was clear from the updates that he felt comfortable, happy, and right at home. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation stress-free, which means everything. We’re so grateful to have found Erin and Devin and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Kody again. Highly recommend!”


“I was nervous leaving Ollie with a new sitter since he’s so used to having me or my fiancé home with him, but Ekaterina was amazing. She sent lots of photos and regular updates, which really put my mind at ease. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and very calm. It was clear he was well cared for. I would definitely recommend Ekaterina and would happily book with her again!”

About: Our three rescues recently traveled to the rainbow bridge after 13 years in our home. We are not ready to fill our home permanently, but are emotionally available to love on your babies while you’re gone. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life. I have many years of pet sitting and house sitting including dogs, cats, fish, and bunnies. I know firsthand how expensive pet boarding is, not to mention stressful, so I am here to make traveling and being away easier. I work very part time and stay home with my kids, so I am available regularly and have an extremely flexible schedule for accommodating needs. We have a one story home with a large fenced in yard for safe exploring and sun bathing. Our home is currently pet free, so your pets would have full control of the place!
“Nancy was perfect! I didn’t worry or fret about my dog’s well being and had a stress free night out away! It was our first time being separated over night. He did great, largely, I’m sure because of Nancy ! He will be staying with her again for sure.”

“This is the first time that I've used Johnna, and all have to say is the cats warmed up to her immediately. Is she a pet whisperer? Everything went smoothly and she did everything I asked. She cleaned up litter messes and took it out to our outside garbage can so there was no litter smells when we got home. She spent time playing with them and even got my anxious cat to warm up to her. Definitely recommend her!”

“Jasmine was absolutely amazing! She has a great backyard for the dogs to run around. She sent pictures and videos everyday and Shasta always looked so happy. I will definitely be contacting Jasmine again to care for our sweet girl!”

“Sixuan was incredibly attentive, following all of my feeding instructions to the letter, taking Andi on regular walks, and ensuring she had her potty breaks every three hours or so. Coming home to find Andi looking so happy relaxed and healthy gave me total peace of mind. She sent regular pictures with updates about her welfare . I gladly give Sixuan 5 stars for her excellent service and cannot recommend Sixuan highly enough! She did an absolutely wonderful job looking after my fur-baby!”

“Always a safe and caring place where I don’t have to worry about my cat. A great communicator, who goes out of her way to give you continual updates with pictures and videos . She’s in good hands.”

“Nelly was a nice surprise and took great care of my dogs. She was easy to communicate with and was happy to provide regular updates with pictures and or videos. She helped provide allergy medication to one of my dogs and was attentive to detail. I would recommend her anytime and will be returning. Book with confidence!”

“Tracy took great care of our dog and did daily check-ins with pictures. From the first meet and greet we felt comfortable leaving Ranger with her, allowing us to enjoy our vacation with the peace of mind that he was lovingly cared for.”

“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
