“Tara and her family took excellent care of our dog Gabby while we were away. Lots of walks, cuddles and extra attention. We also received daily updates and photos. We would absolutely book with them again.”
About: I have traveled a lot in the past and as a dog owner I understand the need for reliable and affordable dog care. As a teacher I have the summer off, so I am home most of the time right now and would love to offer that care to your furry friend. I have a house with a fenced in backyard and a wonderful 10-year-old husky mix who plays well with small-to-large sized dogs. I live with my husband who will be home in the evenings and on weekends, but I will be the only one providing care. If your dog(s) are friendly with other dogs, I look forward to hosting them! Meal times are usually 7:30 am and 6:30 pm. Walks in the am or pm depending on the heat. A fenced in backyard means your pup can let themselves out whenever they need relief. My husband and I have a house with an 8-foot fence and a friendly husky mix to keep your dog(s) company. Our dog is a lover of trash, so we are very careful to keep food out of reach and the trash can locked.
“Rachel was fabulous! She kept me updated with Molly's activities and shared lots of pictures. It was obvious that Molly's was very happy and well-cared for there. She had Rachel's children to play with as well as her dog. I was a bit anxious because this was the first time we boarded Molly, but it turned out far better than expected. I will definitely use her services again! So happy!”
“Natalie and her daughter gave my dog excellent care and lots of love. Natalie also promptly refunded a days fee when I returned a day early! As a Rover host myself, I highly recommend Natalie.”
“I am so thankful that i found her before my vacation. I met her and her dog before we decide the boarding. She made sure both of us, the dogs were comfortable and okay with the house, new dynamics. And she's been sending photos of my dog daily + always been communicating proactively.”
“Katie was so wonderful! My dog came home relaxed and tired from all the fun. I can tell she was properly cared for and given a lot of attention and exercise. I was so grateful for Katie’s kindness and understanding of my special, quirky dog.”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“Josh was so easy to work with and the dogs (1 large and 1 small) had a blast on his mountain property! From the beginning, Josh communicated well and was very friendly and experienced with dogs. This was important to me because we were leaving the country for almost 2 weeks. I highly recommend him!”
“Lauren was so wonderful throughout Bear’s stay! We had a few last minute changes and she was so accommodating and communicative throughout the whole process. You could tell how knowledgeable she is about taking care of animals and she made the extra effort to make sure Bear was happy and comfortable throughout his whole stay.”
“Wolfie enjoyed his stay at Kiara’ place. The entire family is really friendly and treated Wolfie as one of the family members. The house is clean and has big enough space for dogs. Def will recommend to others!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I’m was around 5, I grew up with poodles and we raised them . I would help the neighbors with their cats,dogs,birds and bunnies I currently work for full-time, but on the weekends I enjoy hanging out with dogs. I do enjoy walking them taking to the park having quality time with them. I can provide a fenced yard. There is a park a block away from my home. We can walk to to have open play or play on a leash.Or one on one play in door or in my fenced yard
“Marla is so calm and kind- her love of dogs shows in the great care she gave our two pups! This was the first time we left one of our dogs with a sitter and he seemed to do so well and clearly happy with the care. We hope to have Marla back to take care of our pups on our next trip away.”
“Sarah was absolutely amazing taking care of Atlas over the long weekend. She was even accommodating to pick up an extra day when you flight plans changed. Absolutely would recommend again!”
About: I have fostered two kittens in my current apartment, as well as cared for a dog and two cats in my previous home. I love animals! I am working a part time job in Paso Robles, but shifts are usually mid morning to early evening. I work a few days out of the week, and otherwise I have free time to spend with the pet(s)! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I always follow each pet's routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment while you're away. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I work 3–4 days a week, and my evenings are usually very open, giving me plenty of flexibility and quality time to spend with your pets.
About: I have real, everyday experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including my own three, so I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m used to everything from playful, high-energy dogs to more anxious or shy ones, and I adjust my care based on what each dog needs. I’m confident with feeding routines, potty schedules, and reinforcing basic training, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure every dog is safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my ability to manage multiple dogs while still giving each one individual attention and care. I already care for my own dogs daily, so adding pet care into my routine is a natural fit. I’m home often and able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Dogs staying with me won’t be left alone for long and will be part of a consistent, comfortable routine. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can accommodate both weekday and weekend bookings. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention and feels safe and cared for while they’re with me. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise dogs while they’re outside to ensure their safety. In my home, I carefully manage introductions and monitor interactions to make sure all dogs get along and feel comfortable. I also have crates available if needed, whether for sleeping, downtime, or to match a dog’s normal routine. I stick closely to each dog’s schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. Dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure everyone stays safe and stress-free. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to each dog’s individual needs. Whether a dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I make sure they feel secure, cared for, and right at home.
“Gracie had a fantastic time with Robyn! She had her picture taken frequently with daily updates sent to me. She made friends with June, Poppy, and Sadie. Robyn was so gracious to make topping for Gracie's kibble, when mom didn't send her with enough. Best of all, Robyn volunteered to bathe Gracie before pick-up so she would smell nice for us!! We look forward to many more stays with Robyn!”

Pet care allows me the flexibility to commit when I have a client and invest myself fully while also providing me with the freedom to pursue my other career goals. I live within walking distance to beautiful, large parks, beaches, and trails in the mountains great for hiking. I live in a tucked away neighborhood with good access to nature.
About: I have always lived on property I have several dogs and cats. I have had horses even. I love to hangout with animals and take care of them. I have volunteered many times at my local dog humane society in San Luis Obispo. I love going into nature and love having the company from animals. I have gone to several training classes with my own puppies and do a lot of clicker training with them. I have pets on my own and I love to take them on walks daily. I live on property so sometimes I’ll just walk them here or we will go and explore the local beaches. I like being able to get exercise but also have a companion with me. I care for pets in my home by making sure that they have exercise are getting played with and fed. For clients I would like to do whatever they ask me to do. if that means going to the dog park or going on a hike, I am down to do whatever.
“Monica was very responsive and friendly with my cats and fish. Very grateful she could see my pets just before Christmas. Hopefully I'll be able to rebook with her in the future.”
About: I’ve been a cat person for as long as I can remember. I’ve lived with cats of all ages and temperaments, from kittens to old cats, including deaf cats and a three-legged cat. I’ve loved the super friendly ones, the weird ones, and the cats that take months to decide if they like you. Cats have a way of teaching patience and respect for boundaries, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each cat’s unique personality. My goal is always to help them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.
“Michelle is awesome and was great with my dog. She sent photos while I was out and kindly stayed an extra half hour. I’m so glad she was available when I needed a sitter. 10/10!”
“We are new to Rover and was a bit nervous about setting up house visits with a stranger, but Makaela was quick to ease our worries, very kind during our meet and greet, and prompt with her check ins and pictures while we were away. It made leaving our furry family members less stressful knowing they were getting kind, prompt care. I would highly recommend Makaela to anyone that wants to have their pets cared for as if you were home loving them.”

“Dropped off Flower for a short visit today before I board him with Andrew. I had previously met with Andrew so that Flower could meet him and Flower was very happy to see him. When I picked up my little dog, he seemed very content and peaceful sitting in his little bed. It made me very happy to see that my dog was happy and apparently had a good visit! I feel great about leaving flower with Andrew for the upcoming weekend after this wonderful experience.”
“Isabelle was such a great host for our dog Jayden. My wife and I traveled to Reno from out of town for an event. Our dog is a 15 year old lab that is mostly blind, mostly deaf and has a few other “old lady” problems. Despite all this Isabelle agreed to watch Jayden for a few hours. Isabelle’s communication before and during Jayden’s stay was exceptional as she kept us updated on how Jayden was doing and sent a few pics as well. Isabelle was also very flexible when we asked if we could drop Jayden off earlier than originally planned. Isabelle is a great dog sitter and made Jayden’s time away from us as comfortable as possible. My wife and I have total trust in Isabelle and will definitely use her again if ever in the area.”
“Joan is the kindest, nicest person you could hope to have watch your dog. She watched over our pandemic pup on his first time away from us while we hiked and canoed around Morro bay. She did such a great job that we even sent our dog back the next day. She was patient with him, despite the barking and who knows what else :).”
“Rachel is a FANTASTIC soul! My dog immediately felt her loving energy! He will tremble and bolt if he is not feeling comfortable. He is 13 years old and has a tumor; she was very attentive and patient with him. I will definitely entrust my Teddy to her in the future. Thank you Rachel!!!”
“Family loves the pictures that Natalie sends of our pup's adventures through out the day. Our pup truly enjoys her daycare and her family likes knowing she is having a blast with her friend Flower.”

“Marla was a wonderful sitter for my doggy. She has a great home with a big yard. She was very communicative all day and sent pictures to help me see how she was doing. My dog is used to only being in her own home, so it was nice to see she could do okay in other surroundings. Marla has a kind and gentle spirit and offers a loving environment for your pet!”
“Oli always has the best time with Katie! They go out on adventures to the park and to the beach, 2 to 3 walks a day, and they also snuggle on the couch. At the end of the day we have a happy and relaxed dog, as well as lots of pictures and a summary of all the fun they had. We couldn’t be more pleased with the care our Oli receives from Katie!”
“It was a perfect place to put our puppy. It’s scary to leave a dog in another state knowing no one but Janice really made us feel at ease. She sent lots of pictures and had great questions that showed she really cared about giving the proper care to our baby. Hi highly recommend Janice!”
“Jennifer was really quick to respond to questions and was really accommodating about our travel plans and delays, especially over a holiday weekend. We were traveling and stopped in the area overnight; she only had our girl for a few hours while we had a tour. I got updates on their multiple walks and play times. I would recommend anyone needing a one time service or even recurring appointments towards Jennifer. Top notch!”

About: I’ve cared for Pets of all kinds since I was 18 years old trusted by family friends and neighbors for walking, feeding bathing and loving pets proud pets. Proud grandma to two cats and two dogs. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I already plan my days around fun, feeding walks, playtime, and check-in, making care, consistent and reliable🐾 I enjoy caring for pets in my home playful happy routine means a lot. I will do the same in your home walks talks, and clean up.
About: I have a large courtyard so your animal can thrive in an outdoor area with no room for error. I work remotely most days and enjoy sun and ball throws in between my sessions. Our cats are indoor/outdoor and love to sun bathe with my puppy and I. Who can join in on the fun?! I send my doggie to TiredTails at least once a week leaving an empty nest for someone else to enjoy our home M-Th. I work primarily from home with 1-1.5 hour gaps to not only keep your pup company but allowing time for walks and even a beach day! My cats are used to keeping their distance around dogs, we have a fenced courtyard with plenty of space for throwing the ball and dog tunnel runs! I’m hoping to find the right fit and someone who can keep my little dachshund company while their owner is getting some day time work done! I’m flexible and happy to help just the way others help me from time to time!
About: I’ve always been known as that person who animas just tend to trust. I’ve been told on many occasions how certain animals don’t like people but for whatever reason they give me a chance and I love when I get to show them love and prove that their fur babies made the right choice trusting me. Even when I was a baby I used surround myself with all sorts of animals because I love all of them so much. I hope to have the opportunity to give all the love I can to all the animals willing to give me a chance. I do take night classes Monday- Thursday typically from about 4-7 and I work Mondays and weekends. I’m very flexible but Tuesday-Thursdays are usually best. From how I’ve been described by others, I’m a very friendly, trusting, and loving person and everyone and their pets can expect that from me as well. As far as other peoples houses and everything I like to leave things the way I found it or better.
About: Animals have always been one of the greatest teachers in my life. Through my work as a shepherd and livestock caretaker, I’ve learned that every animal has its own language, personality, and needs. Working alongside livestock guardian dogs especially taught me the value of patience, observation, and earning an animal’s trust rather than demanding it. I love taking the time to get to know each pet as an individual and providing the kind of attentive, reliable care that helps both pets and their people feel at ease. I currently work part-time, which gives me flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet care visits. My schedule varies somewhat, but I do my best to be reliable, communicative, and consistent with each pet’s routine. I’m an active person who enjoys being outdoors, so I love spending time walking dogs, playing with them, or simply keeping them company while their owners are away. I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any specific instructions closely. Through my work with livestock and livestock guardian dogs, I’ve learned to pay attention to animal behavior and pick up on subtle changes that may indicate something is off. Most importantly, I want your pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away, and I’ll keep you updated along the way with messages and photos.

I volunteer at the department of animal services and walk dogs that are available for adoption and I’ve worked in 3 different veterinary hospitals I have a part time job in San Luis Obispo , so I’m available in the afternoons and evenings. My days off are usually pretty open. I have 2 fenced in patios. So pets can go outside and be protected. My personal cat is able to go outside and get some sun.

“Carlos was great! He met us at a park to walk our pup for a few hours while we were visiting and doing touristey things. We even got a few pics of our pup enjoying the beach. Thanks Carlos!”
“Cami did a great job with Ella despite the fact that she had only been away from her family (including our older dog) a few times. She was calm and relaxed when Cami brought her back from her outing. I would definitely recommend her and would use her in the future without any concerns at all. Thanks for a great job Cami!”
“Samantha is the best! She was so flexible and willing to take our dog on late night walks while we were out at EDC. We trusted her with our hotel room key and the trust was put in good hands! Everything was just as we left it and she was thoughtful enough to leave the key card in our room after the last walk. We could tell our doggy was happy and well taken care of from both the photos and his demeanor when we’d come back. We got so lucky finding Samantha. Thank you so much!!”

“Tara and her family took excellent care of our dog Gabby while we were away. Lots of walks, cuddles and extra attention. We also received daily updates and photos. We would absolutely book with them again.”
About: I have traveled a lot in the past and as a dog owner I understand the need for reliable and affordable dog care. As a teacher I have the summer off, so I am home most of the time right now and would love to offer that care to your furry friend. I have a house with a fenced in backyard and a wonderful 10-year-old husky mix who plays well with small-to-large sized dogs. I live with my husband who will be home in the evenings and on weekends, but I will be the only one providing care. If your dog(s) are friendly with other dogs, I look forward to hosting them! Meal times are usually 7:30 am and 6:30 pm. Walks in the am or pm depending on the heat. A fenced in backyard means your pup can let themselves out whenever they need relief. My husband and I have a house with an 8-foot fence and a friendly husky mix to keep your dog(s) company. Our dog is a lover of trash, so we are very careful to keep food out of reach and the trash can locked.
“Natalie and her daughter gave my dog excellent care and lots of love. Natalie also promptly refunded a days fee when I returned a day early! As a Rover host myself, I highly recommend Natalie.”
“I am so thankful that i found her before my vacation. I met her and her dog before we decide the boarding. She made sure both of us, the dogs were comfortable and okay with the house, new dynamics. And she's been sending photos of my dog daily + always been communicating proactively.”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“Josh was so easy to work with and the dogs (1 large and 1 small) had a blast on his mountain property! From the beginning, Josh communicated well and was very friendly and experienced with dogs. This was important to me because we were leaving the country for almost 2 weeks. I highly recommend him!”
“Lauren was so wonderful throughout Bear’s stay! We had a few last minute changes and she was so accommodating and communicative throughout the whole process. You could tell how knowledgeable she is about taking care of animals and she made the extra effort to make sure Bear was happy and comfortable throughout his whole stay.”
“Wolfie enjoyed his stay at Kiara’ place. The entire family is really friendly and treated Wolfie as one of the family members. The house is clean and has big enough space for dogs. Def will recommend to others!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I’m was around 5, I grew up with poodles and we raised them . I would help the neighbors with their cats,dogs,birds and bunnies I currently work for full-time, but on the weekends I enjoy hanging out with dogs. I do enjoy walking them taking to the park having quality time with them. I can provide a fenced yard. There is a park a block away from my home. We can walk to to have open play or play on a leash.Or one on one play in door or in my fenced yard
“Sarah was absolutely amazing taking care of Atlas over the long weekend. She was even accommodating to pick up an extra day when you flight plans changed. Absolutely would recommend again!”
About: I have fostered two kittens in my current apartment, as well as cared for a dog and two cats in my previous home. I love animals! I am working a part time job in Paso Robles, but shifts are usually mid morning to early evening. I work a few days out of the week, and otherwise I have free time to spend with the pet(s)! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I always follow each pet's routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment while you're away. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I work 3–4 days a week, and my evenings are usually very open, giving me plenty of flexibility and quality time to spend with your pets.
About: I have real, everyday experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including my own three, so I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m used to everything from playful, high-energy dogs to more anxious or shy ones, and I adjust my care based on what each dog needs. I’m confident with feeding routines, potty schedules, and reinforcing basic training, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure every dog is safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my ability to manage multiple dogs while still giving each one individual attention and care. I already care for my own dogs daily, so adding pet care into my routine is a natural fit. I’m home often and able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Dogs staying with me won’t be left alone for long and will be part of a consistent, comfortable routine. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can accommodate both weekday and weekend bookings. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention and feels safe and cared for while they’re with me. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise dogs while they’re outside to ensure their safety. In my home, I carefully manage introductions and monitor interactions to make sure all dogs get along and feel comfortable. I also have crates available if needed, whether for sleeping, downtime, or to match a dog’s normal routine. I stick closely to each dog’s schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. Dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure everyone stays safe and stress-free. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to each dog’s individual needs. Whether a dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I make sure they feel secure, cared for, and right at home.
“Gracie had a fantastic time with Robyn! She had her picture taken frequently with daily updates sent to me. She made friends with June, Poppy, and Sadie. Robyn was so gracious to make topping for Gracie's kibble, when mom didn't send her with enough. Best of all, Robyn volunteered to bathe Gracie before pick-up so she would smell nice for us!! We look forward to many more stays with Robyn!”
“Kambry was very responsive and was able to watch for our dog Goose on short notice for the evening. Goose can be uneasy and reactive, but Kambry was able to handle everything super well with care and understanding. She is definitely an experienced sitter and I recommend her to anyone searching in the SLO area!”
“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.”
About: I’ve had experience caring for large dogs my whole life and currently handle most of the day-to-day care for my own dog, so I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, walks, exercise, and keeping dogs happy and well-behaved. I’ve also been pet sitting since high school, caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. What sets me apart is how attentive and hands-on I am. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m especially confident with bigger dogs and can adapt to each dog’s routine, whether that means active playtime or a calmer, more relaxed environment. Until early June, I have school and work during the week, along with some busy weekends, but I’m still available for pet care with enough notice and can work around my schedule. Starting in the summer, I’ll have a much more open and flexible schedule and am looking to take on more pet sitting opportunities. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and make sure your pet gets consistent, reliable care. I provide a clean, safe, and cozy environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m a very active person, so I love taking dogs on walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I also make time for calmer moments, like relaxing and giving pets the affection and companionship they’re used to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel at ease, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. My goal is always to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Lauren was wonderful with my dog, Charlie - she accommodated his special needs and was loving and caring with him. I always know he has had good care when I come home and he’s excited to see me but is also calm and centered. Thank you, Lauren!”
