“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Joyce and family was very caring and Cinnamon was taken care of very well I got regular updates and prompt responses They played with her, took her out for walks. Cinnamon had a relaxing time. They only take one dog at a time which makes it very comfortable for the dog and the owner as well Definitely recommend using Joyce for boarding in future.”
“Sofiya is amazing! I immediately felt comfortable with leaving our young puppy with her! She sent some cute pictures and updates. Our puppy seemed to have such a great time and was well taken care of! I’m so glad we found Sofiya!!”
“Kara is amazing and took such good care of my two pups and truly provided them with their own vacation while I took mine. Kara is a dog lover and will take very good care of your animals and give them a truly unique experience of enjoying a pack and having an adventure. She sent pictures and videos every day enjoying adventures in Boulder Creek with other dogs. They got to go on hikes and swim and she took time to work with my littlest one teaching him how to be braver as he is a bit shy. I will definitely be taking my pups to her again in the future. Thank you Kara!”
“This was our first time using Kimberly’s services for our chihuahua terrier, Zoe. Kimberly was excellent and took good care of Zoe and sent us regular updates and pictures. Zoe seemed very comfortable and happy. Highly recommended!!”
“They are so sweet and accommodating. The house has a spacious backyard and my dog was kept in the ADU with her brother as well as hung out in the main house. Our flight was delayed several times last minute and they were willing to watch her til we got back late at night. I highly recommend and plan to rebook in the future!”
“Very overdue review, but Nancy was great! Fast response times and she gave cooper all the attention that he craves. She sent pictures and communicated throughout the stay and even sent cooper home with a Christmas gift. Thanks for such a fun stay!”
“Elvis walked right in with Jennifer and had such a good time! She was great with updates and I know he enjoyed spending time with her kids. Jennifer was so calm and accepting of Elvis and took him on walks and integrated him with her family. We so appreciated the good care and look forward to more visits in the future.”
“When our regular sitter wasn’t available for the last night of our vacation, Christy and Cornell came to the rescue. Zoey was very happy and cared for at pickup and they were great communicators!”
“Ranger always has an amazing stay with Anusha and family. This visit, Ranger had some digestive upset and Anusha took great care making sure his needs were met. She switched him to a bland chicken/rice diet (that she cooked for him!) and kept a close eye to make sure he bounced back quickly. As always, she was in touch everyday with photo and video updates. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!”
“Highly recommended! Madhumita was very responsive, took great care of Maui (my 5 year old golden retriever) and provided regular updates along with photos and videos. I’ll be sure to avail her services in the future.”
“Carol and Terry are fantastic! They are calm, caring, experienced dog sitters that will take incredible care of your pet. This was the first time we left our Westie Sam with anyone, so I was apprehensive. Carol and Terry went out of their way to make Sam feel loved and safe. They gave him lots of one on one time. They even stayed home on July 4th so he was not alone during the fireworks. They sent numerous daily photos and updates and when we picked him up Sam was happy, healthy and relaxed. We will for sure use Carol and Terry again and we wholeheartedly recommend them!!”
“My large dog Yeti can be prone to anxiety, but looked very comfortable and relaxed in Diane's care. She took him out several times on walks and also let Yeti explore her beautiful backyard. Diane also sent detailed updates with photos and was very kind when I messaged that I was running a little late. Thanks again for watching Yeti!”
“Jesse is amazing. I have a large dog with special needs and Jesse goes above and beyond to accommodate. Moving here from Vegas was nervous to find someone that would be a good fit, but Jesse is just that. Stoked for all the love he shows my boy and will be returning any time the need arises.”
About: Dogs have been and always will be one of my greatest loves! My childhood dogs made my life so much more meaningful. When our own kids were growing up we had two dogs which we adopted as puppies and had the pleasure of having until they passed from old age. Both our son and daughter are Rover dog sitters and we have greatly enjoyed helping them care for these amazing dogs. Now, we are ready to take care of our own! We are a retired couple who loves dogs and will almost always be home to provide companionship and love to your pup. We also enjoy taking dogs on neighborhood walks and making sure that they have a fantastic vacation while in our care! We have a large fenced yard and a grassy area for the dogs to run around in. We also have a swimming pool. Our peaceful neighborhood is perfect for going on walks with the dogs and we will send daily photos of your dog to you!
“Mike & Patty are great!!! We left our dog Buzz for the first time with someone else, and they took fabulous care of him, and our dog is spoiled at home, and has his quirks. We got daily updates, and photos, I will definitely be asking them to take care of Buzz again in the future - thanks so much Patty & Mike!”
“Dani and Ronan kept our 2 pups for 2 days. They took great care of them providing everything they needed including lots of play and outside time. They were very communicative, professional, considerate, even sent updates and pics. Their home is clean and well kept. Their 2 puppies are sweet, well behaved and provided good company for my visiting pups. I loved working with them and our puppies came home happy. Can’t say enough great things about Dani and Ronan. So happy to have found someone local we like. Looking forward to our next booking with you both. Thank you for everything Dani and Ronan!”
“Juliana was awesome. I would definately not hesitate to have you watch over your 4 legged friends. Our dog was nervious at first but by the second day she had max happy go lucky. Will definately reach out for future bookings when they come up.”
“She was so kind to woogie 🐾 she was able to care for her last minute, the same day after our primary sitter fell through due to unforeseen circumstances. She sent updated pictures each day and let us know how she’s doing. I’m glad Woogie had a great time with you”

About: I grew up and currently have cats of my own. I would also like to say that I have a natural knack for playing with kitties. In fact, I love playing with them!! Rest assured your baby will be kept active and happy:)
“Shylynn paid attention to the feeding and care needs and cared for them nicely. They were super happy and contented upon my return. I could tell she established a consistent care routine and loved them up. Excellent care and peace of mind!”
“Did a fantastic job with caring for my cat! I was so nervous about it since it was my kitty’s first time being away from us but Jasmine was so communicative and did a wonderful job following instructions”
About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Having six years of experience as a vet tech, six years of experience caring for pets professionally, and caring for my personal furry companions animals for over 6o years, I bring an exceptional blend of experience, care, and responsibility to my pet care. I have a huge heart for cats and dogs and love to see them happy in their environment. My sensitive nature allows me to be highly attuned to animals and their needs. Others have often commented on my ability to anticipate the needs of people and animals before they are aware of them. I believe in the health and wellbeing of all living things. When your animal is under my care, you can be assured they are receiving the nurturing and care they deserve. I am available for walking, visits, boarding, and more. Please inquire for your particular needs and desires for your pet in your absence. I would be happy to keep your pet loved and safe while you are away. Injections, special needs, training/rehabilitation I am in a very open and expansive time currently in life. I am widely available round the clock for your pets needs. I am available daytime, evenings, and weekends. I do not have a fenced yard on the property I live on in the country, so when boarding with me, dogs will be on leash when outdoors. They will enjoy the many walks they will have around here. When at your home, I take care of your fur baby and belongs with the utmost respect and safety.
“We have used Emily twice now and hopefully she’ll be available in the future. She house sat and took excellent care of our two kitties. She is extremely responsible and just a really nice person. Our cats appeared to be happy and very well taken care of.”
About: Cats have always been a big part of my life. I currently have two of my own and grew up caring for several cats with a wide range of personalities and needs—from affectionate house cats to seniors requiring extra care, and even feral cats that needed patience and understanding. I’m comfortable recognizing and respecting feline boundaries while also giving them the attention, playtime, and affection they enjoy on their own terms. Whether your cat is social, shy, playful, or independent, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I’ve had kitties in my life ever since I can remember. Reading body language and acting accordingly has become something I’m very accustomed to. And as a fairly avid dog sitter, I feel confident in my abilities to sit cats. My goal is to ensure your baby’s needs are met and no boundaries are crossed!
“Mamu took care of our two cats for two weeks while we were away on vacation. Mamu was extremely kind and patient with our cats and tought of ways to entertain the cats! We came back home finding the cats happy, home even tidier than befofe we left. Would definitely recommend Mamu to anyone who needs pet sitting service!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Chelsea does great with my puppy Ringo! She was able to come last minute ( my daughter called me worried about him when she left for work, she said he was barking and had some separation anxiety! ) By the time I got home, he was a happier puppy after Chelsea’s visit!”
About: I have grown up in Santa Cruz my whole life. I have had many different pets and want to pursue my love for animals by taking care of yours. I have also taken an animal training course at Cabrillo College. I currently work part time as an EMT and on my days off I love to be outside and walk my dog, I usually dedicate my whole day to be with her whether it’s bike rides, walks, or beach days. I take my dog to her annual vet check ups. My dog has insurance and is currently eating 2 meals a day. One in the morning and one at night. She is a very loving dog to humans and other dogs. I trust her off leash at the beach so we do that regularly. She also enjoys cruiser bike rides on west cliff.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals since I was 9. I have lots of experience with both cats and dogs. I’ve even taken care of reptiles! I take great pride in the fact that I’ve trained many dogs (all self taught) I believe I have an amazing set of qualities like genuine love for animals, reliability, excellent communication with pet owners, and flexibility in scheduling. I also believe I create a comfortable and safe environment for pets.
About: I'm an actor who brings passion to everything I do. I want to run or play fetch or scratch the bellies of any and all the beautiful pups out there! Dogs have been apart of my life since I was 7, when we took in a stray basset hound named Scarlett. She was a kindred old soul. Because I travel a lot for work, I'm unable to have my own, but this is the next best thing! I've watched Chihuahuas and Golden Retrievers, old dogs barely able to leave the house and little pups who never wanted to stay inside. I've found that Black Labs are great to run lines with and Huskies actually love the sun! Whatever the needs, whatever the occasion, I am ready and game! I am a working freelance actor and writer for stage, film, and TV so my schedule is quite varied depending on what project I am working on at any given time. This does allow for a lot of flexibility in my routine, and I am normally never away for longer than 4/5 hours at a time. I have a deep passion for animal care and I can ensure that your pets will be as loved as possible while you are away.

“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!”
About: Hi! I’m Angelika, and I absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. I’ve loved animals my whole life. Growing up, our family home was full of pets, from rodents like mice, guinea pigs, rats, and hamsters, to rabbits, cats, turtles, parrots, and a dog I adored who passed away three years ago. I’ve walked and cared for dogs and cats since childhood, including helping my grandmother and neighbors with their pets, walking them and spending time with them whenever needed. Right now I don’t have a pet of my own because I’m traveling a lot, but I’d love to help care for other people’s furry friends. I’m responsible, attentive, and I love spending time with animals. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them lots of love while you’re away! I am currently looking for a full-time job and I'm pretty flexible. In the meantime I have plenty of free time so I’m available to take care of your pets anytime! 😊 I make sure pets feel safe, happy, and loved in their own home. I follow the owner’s instructions, give plenty of attention, play, and walks, and keep everything clean and secure 🫶🏼
“Nancy was the perfect match for my little guy. And her home environment was like little dog heaven on earth. Everything worked out seamlessly. I would definitely rebook with Nancy without hesitation! Many thanks!”
“I am over the moon about Daisy's full-day stay with Shannon and her family! I knew that Daisy had a great day because she fell fast asleep on the way home, and while she was happy to see me at pick-up, I could also tell she really liked her hosts. She went back and forth greeting me and going back to Shannon or her husband to get her head scratched; there was big tail wagging going on there! Shannon is certainly knowledgeable and experienced in caring for dogs, responsible, kept my pup safe, and supported Daisy's quirks and needs. She and her family followed my requests and instructions perfectly. Shannon sent pictures, which my husband and I so appreciated, and was responsive and clear in all her communications. She was flexible when I requested a time change for drop off and was fine when I wanted to come a bit earlier than scheduled for pick up. Daisy will be very excited, and I will be very happy & confident leaving her again with Shannon ~ I highly recommend her to care for your pet! You get her and her wonderful family!”
“I could not recommend Yajaira enough! She took great care of my dog, Toby. She sent so many photos and updates, it was amazing. I rested well on my time away knowing Toby was in great hands.”
“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: What sets me apart is my 6 years of professional dog care experience, including boarding, energetic walks, and feeding, plus references from satisfied pet owners who trust my attentive service with all breeds and ages, even assisting with puppy training and senior pet comfort. 🐾 I'm pretty flexible! I have pretty much free time, so I'd love to fit in pet care. I can do early morning or late afternoon dog walks, and I'm totally game for boarding or longer visits on weekends. Whatever works best for you! My home is a cozy getaway, spaces to snooze, a big fenced yard to play, and all the love in the world. Each pet gets personalized attention, playtime, and snuggles tailored to their vibe. Think of it as a furry sleepover with lots of TLC!
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 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

“Ashley was an absolute pleasure to work with! I needed last-minute care for my dog, so I reached out to her around 10pm the night before. I was very grateful for her quick reply at that hour. She happened to be available the next day, which was such a lifesaver. We did a meet & greet around 10am, and later that afternoon she came by to give my dog a short walk/potty break. She followed all of my instructions and kept me updated with detailed messages, which gave me confidence that she understood what was needed. She also sent several videos during the walk which gave me peace of mind. My dog is currently recovering from an injury, so it was especially important to find someone who would be patient, attentive, and responsible. Ashley was exactly that, and I felt relieved knowing my dog was in such caring hands. Ashley is kind, reliable, communicative, and seemed to genuinely enjoy connecting with my pup. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy petsitter. I would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I've been taking care of animals for quite some time now! I have two senior dogs myself and snakes. I look forward to meeting you both! I usually have a routine with my senior puppies, therefore creating one that suits your dog's needs will be no problem at all! I'm flexible at the moment since it's summertime. I will follow the safety protocols! If there are any additional instructions or care needed that will be applied to the routine as well. Ensuring all doors and windows are locked while all food is put away.
About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life and regularly volunteer at the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter. Please let me know if you have any questions. Good with all types of dogs. Not afraid of those who pull! I currently have full availability as school has been my full time job until now. I am willing to do visits at all times of day, no time too early or late. I do best with specific instructions on how to care for your pet so I can make them as comfortable as possible. I’d love to meet your pet ahead of time if it makes you more comfortable. Just reach out.
“Jennifer did an amazing job getting our super timid dog to be comfortable with her and with walking our two dogs. She was prompt and very communicative. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a dog walker!”
“Amanda was amazing with my dog, Luna. She took her on long walks and Luna came back tired and a very happy camper. It’s clear that Amanda is wonderful with dogs and genuinely cares about them. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”
About: I’m a 21 year old college graduate looking to fulfill her hopes of pet setting once again! Being a full time student meant busy weeks, leaving no time for pet care. Something I actively did before transferring to UCSC. But with this newfound, post-graduate freedom, I’m eager to get back into the gig. Besides caring for my own kitties, I’ve worked with 7 clients over the past four years. All of which have been dog sitting gigs, with one job including an additional 3 cats (if that makes sense haha). And in my time as a sitter I’ve had four consistent clients. Additionally, I’m more than willing to sit for most dogs/ cats regardless of age, size, energy level, etc. It is my job (and such a privilege) to ensure their needs are met! Worth a mention - I’ve not had any experience in pet training, but I’m committed to being the best companion to the little loves! I can’t wait to connect with you and your fur-babies! I’m hoping to fill my week days (which are fairly open as of late) with pet care! Connecting with animals is truly such a rewarding job. Knowing I can make your life easier, and also that your pets are happy fills my heart with oodles of joy. My housing agreement unfortunately states that I can’t allow pets on to the premises. However, I’m extremely comfortable staying in/ visiting other spaces. Being respectful of your space is one of my top priorities.
“Shyylynn is wonderful! I immediately felt at easy leaving our extremely energetic terrier with her. We plan on continuing to have her walk our dog regularly while we are at work.”
About: Stemming from a childhood with German shepherds, I’ve loved being constantly surrounded by animals for most of my life. I have experience with dog walking, playing with other dogs, watching overnight, and can accommodate as needed! I have open availability with a preference toward mornings and afternoons. Specifically, available to dog walk in the morning and check-in throughout the day as needed. I can provide proper assurance as needed. I live in a home with plenty of backyard space for your pup to run around, and happy to run through specific safety features!
About: I’ve spent years caring for animals and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet is an energetic puppy, a senior dog who needs extra patience and support, or anything in between, I’m committed to providing attentive, compassionate care tailored to them. I prioritize safety, consistency, and lots of love so your pet feels comfortable and secure while you’re away. My goal is to treat every animal with the same love and attention as my own, giving you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, capable hands. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to accommodate a wide variety of pet care needs, including weekdays, weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests whenever possible. Because I have open availability, I can provide your pet with plenty of attention, companionship, exercise, and consistent care rather than rushing between commitments. I’m committed to being dependable, responsive, and making sure your pet receives the time and care they deserve while you’re away. Every pet is different, and I believe the best care starts with earning their trust. I’ll always move at your pet’s pace, respecting their personality, comfort level, and routine while creating a calm, positive environment. Their safety is my highest priority, so I’ll remain attentive on walks, during playtime, and throughout every visit, keeping a close eye on their behavior and well-being. Whether your pet is outgoing, shy, energetic, or anxious, I’ll provide patient, thoughtful care that helps them feel secure, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of many different types of animals since I was 9. I have lots of experience with both cats and dogs. I’ve even taken care of reptiles! I take great pride in the fact that I’ve trained many dogs (all self taught) I believe I have an amazing set of qualities like genuine love for animals, reliability, excellent communication with pet owners, and flexibility in scheduling. I also believe I create a comfortable and safe environment for pets. Pet care fits into my daily/weekly routine due to my flexible schedule that allows me to provide personalized and attentive pet care every day! To ensure safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for pets in my home or a client’s, I keep the space clean and secure, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, maintain open communication, create a calm atmosphere, use pet-proofing measures, and always supervise the pets.
About: What sets me apart is that caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s something I’ve lived my entire life. I grew up with a golden retriever named Arwen, and from 8th grade on, I was fully responsible for her walks, training, and care. I even started waking up an hour earlier every day just to make sure she got her morning walk in before school! Later, when I moved to the U.S. for college, I helped raise and train my roommate’s husky puppy, Ava, who struggled with separation anxiety. I’d take her to class, skate with her to tire her out, and help her stay calm and confident. It was like co-parenting a very energetic fur baby—and I loved every minute. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities—from hyper puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. My husband and I pet sat for two elderly Bichon Frises (17 years old!) every year while their owners traveled, carefully managing their diet, medications, and gentle exercise. I’ve also grown to love cats after living with Archie—my first real cat roommate—and have experience gently brushing, bonding, and caring for both indoor and stray cats (I even accidentally helped my mom adopt a kitten when I took in a stray!). Most recently, I taught my in-laws’ senior dog Ellie new tricks at the age of 7, proving that even older pups can learn with patience and love. We can’t have pets in our home right now due to landlord restrictions, so pet sitting is how I stay connected to what I love most—animals. I treat every pet like they’re my own, and I genuinely enjoy making them feel safe, happy, and loved while their humans are away. I am a bioengineering Ph.D. Student, most of the time I have freedom of picking my hours, as well as working from home when needed! I always start by learning as much as I can about your pet’s routine, preferences, health needs, and quirks. Whether it’s medication schedules, feeding routines, or special toys they love—I’m here to follow your instructions to a T. I do my best to keep your pet’s day feeling as normal as possible while you’re away. I’m extremely respectful of your home and always aim to leave it just as you left it (or better!). I double-check doors and windows, never leave pets unsupervised outside, and keep a tidy, pet-safe environment throughout the stay. I also send regular updates—photos, videos, and check-ins—so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy and well cared for. If you ever need in-my-home care in the future (pending landlord approval!), my goal would be to provide a cozy, stress-free space that’s clean, safe, and set up to meet your pet’s unique needs.
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 recently moved here from Santa Cruz, and will be starting work at the school in the fall, so I am looking to do some pet sitting, and dog walking, during the summer. 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
“Consider the job done with Kate. Great communication, punctual, and goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is taken care of and expectations are fully met. Thank you, Kate! ?”
“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”

“Nabil took wonderful care of Raisin for two days. It was Raisin’s first time staying away from home, so we were a little nervous, but Nabil and Sunny made her feel comfortable and safe. She quickly warmed up to them, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she was well cared for and treated with kindness. We truly appreciated the updates and the loving care Raisin received. I would highly recommend Nabil to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Sofiya is amazing! I immediately felt comfortable with leaving our young puppy with her! She sent some cute pictures and updates. Our puppy seemed to have such a great time and was well taken care of! I’m so glad we found Sofiya!!”
“Kara is amazing and took such good care of my two pups and truly provided them with their own vacation while I took mine. Kara is a dog lover and will take very good care of your animals and give them a truly unique experience of enjoying a pack and having an adventure. She sent pictures and videos every day enjoying adventures in Boulder Creek with other dogs. They got to go on hikes and swim and she took time to work with my littlest one teaching him how to be braver as he is a bit shy. I will definitely be taking my pups to her again in the future. Thank you Kara!”
“They are so sweet and accommodating. The house has a spacious backyard and my dog was kept in the ADU with her brother as well as hung out in the main house. Our flight was delayed several times last minute and they were willing to watch her til we got back late at night. I highly recommend and plan to rebook in the future!”
“Ranger always has an amazing stay with Anusha and family. This visit, Ranger had some digestive upset and Anusha took great care making sure his needs were met. She switched him to a bland chicken/rice diet (that she cooked for him!) and kept a close eye to make sure he bounced back quickly. As always, she was in touch everyday with photo and video updates. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!”
“Highly recommended! Madhumita was very responsive, took great care of Maui (my 5 year old golden retriever) and provided regular updates along with photos and videos. I’ll be sure to avail her services in the future.”
“Carol and Terry are fantastic! They are calm, caring, experienced dog sitters that will take incredible care of your pet. This was the first time we left our Westie Sam with anyone, so I was apprehensive. Carol and Terry went out of their way to make Sam feel loved and safe. They gave him lots of one on one time. They even stayed home on July 4th so he was not alone during the fireworks. They sent numerous daily photos and updates and when we picked him up Sam was happy, healthy and relaxed. We will for sure use Carol and Terry again and we wholeheartedly recommend them!!”
“My large dog Yeti can be prone to anxiety, but looked very comfortable and relaxed in Diane's care. She took him out several times on walks and also let Yeti explore her beautiful backyard. Diane also sent detailed updates with photos and was very kind when I messaged that I was running a little late. Thanks again for watching Yeti!”
“Jesse is amazing. I have a large dog with special needs and Jesse goes above and beyond to accommodate. Moving here from Vegas was nervous to find someone that would be a good fit, but Jesse is just that. Stoked for all the love he shows my boy and will be returning any time the need arises.”
“Juliana was awesome. I would definately not hesitate to have you watch over your 4 legged friends. Our dog was nervious at first but by the second day she had max happy go lucky. Will definately reach out for future bookings when they come up.”
“She was so kind to woogie 🐾 she was able to care for her last minute, the same day after our primary sitter fell through due to unforeseen circumstances. She sent updated pictures each day and let us know how she’s doing. I’m glad Woogie had a great time with you”
“Hi, I can tell when my dog was not stressed upon return from a boarding experience and our dog, was happy when no the caring hands of Steve and co. I got regular updates and My dog went on long walks and hikes. He had the company of other dogs and behaved in Steve’s presence- him being a trainer himself. Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”
About: Hello folks, we have been a large dog family for over 12 years. Unfortunately I lost my puppy this year. It's too early for me to get a new pet but we miss him dearly. While I had him I was always looking for a family that could board him while I was out traveling or visiting family. It's time for me to return the favor to other dog families who need that support and help. I live near Sunnyvale downtown in a single family home with a large lot and know the neighborhood well. We offer a calm, home environment — not a kennel — where dogs get personalized care and lots of love. I send regular photo updates so you always know how your pup is doing. As dog owner myself, I understand what pet parents look for — reliability, communication, and genuine love for animals. Your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles during their stay with me. I will be happy to board your babies and take care of them while you are gone. Give me a few days of notice so I can plan my work schedule and travel plans accordingly. For longer stays, please give me a few weeks notice. I work from home, so your dog is never left alone for long. They'll have company throughout the day, regular outdoor breaks, and plenty of attention. My schedule is flexible, which means I can give dogs the time and attention they deserve — regular walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day rather than just morning and evening. Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine since we have had our own dog at home. Morning and evening walks are already built into my day, and I make sure every dog in our care gets exercise, attention, and downtime on a consistent schedule. I have a fully fenced yard. My home is a safe, pet-friendly environment — I had a dog of my own, so I've already done the work of making sure the space is comfortable and secure for animals. I have a fenced yard where dogs can play freely, and I always supervise interactions between pets to make sure everyone gets along well. I treat every dog as an individual — some need more activity, some need more quiet time, and I adjust accordingly. Food, medications, and any special routines are followed exactly as the owner instructs. I keep leashes on during walks in the neighborhood and never leave guest dogs unattended outside. You'll receive regular photo and text updates throughout the stay so you always have peace of mind.
“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.”
“Shannon treated my dog like family, taking him on fun walks and hanging out on the deck. She’s fantastic at communication and sent pictures of their adventures. We will definitely book again. Highly recommend.”
“Angelika did a great job watching my dog, Fawn! Throughout the process of watching her she sent me updated pictures of how Fawn was doing when staying at her place, and was flexible about the drop off/pick up time! I’d recommend Angelika to others who are looking for somewhere for their doggie to stay while they’re on a vacation or what not. :)”
“Valentina was so sweet with my little dog Nate (he and I were anxious about leaving one another…). She had some bigger dogs but kept them apart, and slowly introduced the small dogs to him. She told me that Nate even got to watch their pig curiously through the window! You could tell that Valentina both cares and has knowledge on how to manage new pets into her home. I will most definitely return!”
“I was lucky to find Michelle and Michael. My dog is young golden retriever with high energy. Michelle and Michael gave my dog plenty of cuddles and attention. They gave my dog long walk and played fetch with him. Michelle sent me updates frequently that helped relieve my separation anxiety. I couldn't be happier to have my dog stay with Michelle and Michael, who are really nice and caring people.”
