“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!”
“Nancy and her husband Lance were amazing. They accommodated our late arrival and were so welcoming to us and Cheech. They took such good care of Cheech on his visit. Great communication and overall awesome couple. Highly recommended. Cheech was spoiled. Thank you, Nancy!”
“Highly recommend! Qi was fantastic with my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so much better while I was away. They clearly love animals and took great care of everything. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Ranger, as usual, had an amazing stay with Anusha and her family. We are so grateful to have a wonderful place for him to be while we are away where he’s loved and just part of the family. We get frequent photo updates too which we all love.”
“Evegeniia is a great dog sitter! She came to our meet and greet with plenty of questions and was genuinely interested in Willow’s needs and how to care for her. We got plenty of videos, photos and text updates and it was clear that Willow was thriving while we were away. I definitely recommend Evegeniia to take care of your dog.”
About: Experienced dog owner and sitter. Studied dog psychology to become a good dog parent. Had two female spaniels who passed earlier this year. We used to compete in dog frisbee and hunt. Also have experience working in a grooming salon, as well as walking and boarding various size dogs - from labs and German shepherds to Jack Russel terriers and mini Aussies. Additionally at no cost I can provide basic behavioural training and teach new tricks - I love to communicate with dogs of any breed and move in one rhythm with them. And I really feel their needs and able to connect with dogs of all ages. I can board puppies and older dogs, take them for a walk someplace new and play ball or frisbee. But safety and well-being is my main focus and if your dog doesn't want too much activity, I can provide a more mellow experience, too. Available on weekdays and weekends but please make appointments at least 2 days in advance. I would love to meet your furry friend! I'm working remotely from home part-time, so have lots of time to spend with doggies. I'm available both weekends and weekdays and rarely leave home for more than a couple hours, so your dog won't be alone for too long. I have a fenced backyard and deck, and two mellow spaniels to keep your doggo company. I also have a crate where your pet can rest if needed.
“Mochi had a great weekend stay. She was well entertained by the family and got along well with their dog Eberly. Home with enclosed yard is spacious and safe. We will definitely board again.”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“Jennifer is our go-to pet sitter for our dog Kona. We have used her several times now and always appreciate all the pictures and updates while we are out of town. Kona is nervous around new people but warmed up to Jennifer and her family no problem. We feel lucky to have found Jennifer!”
“I couldn't be there for the hand-off and pick-up of my dog, but Coleman worked with our friend to make sure Indy made it to and from his care easily. We got daily pictures, he put up with my frequent texts asking about Indy, and Indy got some good exercise and I could tell was the recipient of lots of attention!”
“It’s been a while since we’ve wanted to travel and had to think about boarding our dogs. We recently found Steve and did a meet and greet and it was very obvious that our pups were comfortable with him and he was comfortable with them. We booked a one day stay as a trial and our dogs clearly had a blast. Our dogs were so much happier having spent a day with Steve than being stuck alone at home. Highly recommended!”
“This was our first time boarding our two pups with Sophia. We had a meet and greet with Sophia prior to the boarding and Jack and Johnny were very happy and comfortable with her. During their stay Sophia kept us updated on how they were doing and took them for walks and send us pictures and videos. We are very happy with Sophia and will be definitely boarding Jack and Johnny with Sophia and her family.”
“Jesse took great care of our pups while we were on vacation, he was willing to make last minute accommodations when our travel plans changed slightly. He sent pics/videos while we were gone and communicated concerns when one of our dogs wasn’t eating all of his food after being dropped off. We will most definitely be booking with Jesse again in the future!”

About: I have had the privilege of caring for my German Shepherd, Rex, for three years, which deepened my passion for working with animals. Over the past 5 years, I have also gained extensive experience through Rover, specializing in dog training, behavioral corrections, and structured care. My expertise includes addressing common challenges such as excessive barking, leash pulling, aggressive tendencies, and uncontrolled anxiety. I work closely with pups and pet parents to ensure continuity in the care and training methods their pets are accustomed to or can develop. I also work with other sitters to learn more about certain situations and how I may better myself as care giver and teacher! I currently doing Rove full time, allowing me to dedicate my time to training sessions, structured walks, and behavior-focused activities. I am currently finishing up my schooling online and building my business on the side. The pets I care for are treated like family. I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each dog and their Kahu, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment. Whether working on obedience training, leash manners, or socialization, I prioritize creating a structured yet nurturing setting. All the while keeping you the parent’s schedule in mind and routine so that your pup go about their day in the best way possible!
“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”
“Morgan is fantastic! She takes great care of the cats in our absence, arrives on time, sends lots of check in with us too. We are so thrilled to have someone we trust completely with our kitties. The kitties bonded quickly with her and we're so happy!”
“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.”
About: I have always loved cats and have had many cats throughout my life. Caring for them has given me experience with a variety of personalities, from playful and social cats to those who are more independent and shy. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and making sure cats feel comfortable and secure in their environment. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to providing loving care while you’re away.
About: I raised by dog from one month old and trained him his whole life! I grew up around dogs my whole life and love them. Animals mean so much to me and I love caring for them. I work two days a week on Wednesday 12-4 and Thursday 2-4:30. I also have school five days a week. Monday 8-2, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 8-12 and Thursday 8-12. I care for pets in making sure they have space for themselves but are also reaching the love and attention they need to be happy and healthy. I will watch pets in your home!
“Noemi was amazing with our two shy cats. She took care of them for 3 weeks while we were away. It is very clear that she genuinely loves cats and understands their personalities and boundaries. They both warmed up to her, which says a lot! We appreciated the daily photos and felt completely comfortable knowing our cats were with someone so cat-focused and caring. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to others.”

About: I've owned cats for as long as I can remember, and am passionate about taking care of them. They have always been my favorite animal- so much so that I am full of so many fun facts about cats. I love spending time with kitties of any age, and have experience caring for very young kittens, seniors, and cats with medical conditions like FIV. I spent much of my time in high school cat sitting for my community, and want to extend that to my college life! I live with three beautiful girls (two of which are mine, one is my roommate's baby) and I love them to death!

“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.

About: Hi! I am an adventurous person looking for new experiences while caring for pets of all kinds. I have been around animals my entire life and love them dearly. I independently pet sit often so I’m not always available on Rover. I also do pet sitting on another app and posted my reviews! I don’t drink, or smoke. Your home and pets will always be taken care of while I’m there. I enjoy nature and hiking is a part of my daily life. Your pups will always get walked for the time you recommend. I hope to meet you soon and be of service to you and your pet babies :) I currently have a flexible schedule so please reach out so we can set up a time and days that work best for you :) I can easily follow whatever directions are given to me. My goal is to care for your pet just as if it is you caring for it yourself. I’m comfortable going to houses and can send updates to assure you they are taken care of.

About: I’ve looked after my own dogs since elementary school and started watching my friends’ pets around when I turned 12. I have absolutely loved animals (dogs especially) for as long as I can remember and it’s actually become a career goal of mine. I’m currently studying to be a wildlife veterinarian and am always eager for opportunities to care for and play with all sorts of animals. I have always loved dogs especially though and am so happy anytime I’m able to watch after them. I’m a student at San Jose City College and I work part-time so my time during the week is slightly limited. I am always able to fit in at least one midday visit, usually more but some days are tough. Mornings and evenings I’m free to visit your pups as much as needed or stay overnight! I am very comfortable around all sizes and species of dogs. I have some experience with puppy training as well and am perfectly happy to incorporate any specific training you might have for your pup. I have experience with medication so chow time will go smoothly even if your pup needs some medication.
About: Had dogs growing up and have been talking care of pets on and off since 2014. Usually in town for holidays because of work and would love to take care of your pets while you’re away or walk them when you’re at work! I’m currently in between jobs so I have lots of time to walk and love on all your pets! I am flexible on time and day, but prefer weekdays. I want to work with you to provide the best care for your pets depending on what your space necessitates! Every pet is different and I look forward to working with you to make sure they’re cared for properly while you’re away.
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 grew up with a house that always had at least one dog in it. I have always loved and been very comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I’ve dog walked and dog sat for neighbors since I was a young kid. I’m currently a college student at UCSC on summer vacation. Now that I’m home my schedule is very open and I’m hoping to use my free time to take care of dogs! I have two dogs and three cats living at my house currently. Both dogs are friendly and the cats keep to themselves. I love hiking so I can take your dog on some awesome dog-friendly trails, or I can just walk them around your neighborhood.
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 owned big dogs my whole life. Two labs, a retriever and a Catahoula mix. I have never know my life without a dog in it. Since I was little I would help take care of the dogs. From them being puppies to elderly dogs. I have watched my own dogs as well as others. I have also an accompanied a mobile dog groomer during her work. I helped wash the dogs as well as keep them calm and happy while she worked. I definitely learned A LOT about cleaning up after puppies while working with her. I am currently home for the summer from college and I do not have any other jobs so I have a lot of free time. I available all week except for when I will be out of town. I understand that every dog has different needs. I am fully flexible and willing to work with your dog in whatever way they need. For example, I have helped my dog through her fear of fireworks by wrapping her in a blanket and holding her (a little peanut butter helped too). Or if your dog needs a lot of exercise to stay calm and happy I will run around for hours. I am adaptable to the dog and I can help in whatever way is needed!
About: Hello and thanks for stopping by! I’m Sarah and would love to take care of your furry friends! I love all animals. I have had a life time of experience with beautiful critters, having grown up caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs and more. I have taken care of countless pups and cats over many decades; safety and love have always been paramount when animals are in my care. I am currently offering the following services: boarding in your home, dog walking and home visits 😊 I have experience with a wide variety of pups (and kitties) from 5lb chihuahuas to a large Italian mastiff! I am comfortable with medication administration, exercise, senior dog/kitty care and any special needs or requests. In addition, I, of course, will take immaculate care of your home while pet sitting. I am all about learning the routine of your pup(s) and/or kitty(ies) so you can travel or be work stress free. I will take daily pictures/videos of your pets with detailed updates. I’m happy to set up a meet and greet at your convenience. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends. Numerous references available upon request. Some examples of pet care jobs I have done are: for a cat named Kona. A kind and curious fellow on the island of St John, USVI. As well as caring for Kona, I managed the owners home, property, and vehicles. Kona and I loved cuddling on the porch in the cool island breeze together! Another, Annabelle, a large Italian Mastiff. She loved going on long walks by the river near her home in Connecticut. She also loved chewing on special bones I was permitted by her owner to give her. She required a weekly bath/shower which was messy but fun! A third example are Gracie and Monti, both medium sized rescues. Gracie had a lot of energy and walking was a must sometimes several times a day. She and I would go on long walks on trails and she enjoyed wading in water to cool off after a long walk. Monti on the other hand was a dignified little fellow. He was one to stop and smell the roses and everything along the way :) Monti had back surgery so needed to be lifted in and out of car and needed to be monitored so as to not jump up and re-injure his spine. Lastly, Jet Jet was a frisky rescue cat. He loved to play and cuddle and roll in fresh cat nip! I have cared for many more pets and their owners homes. Looking forward to hearing from you! xo, Sarah I work full time as a pet care provider. I am available for lengthy home stays as requested. I also do as many as 4 home visits and day and stay in shape with plenty of dog walking. :) Meeting the needs of a variety of pets is a huge part of my daily routine- I love it! I look forward to hearing from you. Sarah I follow instructions as to what you, the pet owner, would like done while I am with your pet. I can be reached by phone when I am walking, feeding, or cuddling with your dog or cat. I am excellent at following what protocol you have outlined for your pet. Safety and love are paramount when I am caring for your pet.
“Shylynn is great. When I was walking Maggie the other morning I ran into a neighbor with her dog and she told how lovely she thought Shylynn was. In the pictures Shylynn sends me, Maggie always looks like she's really enjoying herself ”

“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!”
“Highly recommend! Qi was fantastic with my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so much better while I was away. They clearly love animals and took great care of everything. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Ranger, as usual, had an amazing stay with Anusha and her family. We are so grateful to have a wonderful place for him to be while we are away where he’s loved and just part of the family. We get frequent photo updates too which we all love.”
“Amelia is wonderful! We were so happy to be able to be away and know that she's taking good care of our pup. The fact that our anxious little dog loves her says it all.”
“I couldn't be there for the hand-off and pick-up of my dog, but Coleman worked with our friend to make sure Indy made it to and from his care easily. We got daily pictures, he put up with my frequent texts asking about Indy, and Indy got some good exercise and I could tell was the recipient of lots of attention!”
“It’s been a while since we’ve wanted to travel and had to think about boarding our dogs. We recently found Steve and did a meet and greet and it was very obvious that our pups were comfortable with him and he was comfortable with them. We booked a one day stay as a trial and our dogs clearly had a blast. Our dogs were so much happier having spent a day with Steve than being stuck alone at home. Highly recommended!”
“Jesse took great care of our pups while we were on vacation, he was willing to make last minute accommodations when our travel plans changed slightly. He sent pics/videos while we were gone and communicated concerns when one of our dogs wasn’t eating all of his food after being dropped off. We will most definitely be booking with Jesse again in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the beginning, it was clear how caring, responsible, and genuinely passionate they are about animals. Our Powder was not only well taken care of, but truly loved while we were away. We received regular updates, photos, and messages, which gave us complete peace of mind. Powder was happy, and clearly in love with Garrett when we returned — the best sign of excellent care. It’s such a relief to find someone you can fully trust with both your pet. We would recommend this pet sitter without hesitation to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and professional care. We will absolutely be booking again!”
“Lanie and her family were extremely welcoming of our pup and he had a great time. Lanie provided regular updates and kept us at ease knowing Munchkin was happy.”
“We had such an amazing experience with Audrina watching our dog, Brody! We were updated everyday with pictures and information about his day and all the fun activities he did. He was a very happy boy and we will definitely be using her again!!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“If you’re looking for a sitter who truly cares, look no further than Diane. She is incredibly nice and professional. Her backyard is a dog’s dream, and her consistent daily communication kept us totally at ease while we were away. We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Daisy has had another wonderful stay with Shannon, Chris and their family. This was a 7-night stay and Daisy was treated like one of the family! Shannon sent pictures each day and followed all our requests on how to care for our sweet but slightly anxious dog who also has a few 'quirky' behaviours. We are so thankful to have found people and a home where we know Daisy will be safe and cared for!”
“Matthew was amazing! Our cats took well to him and were very comfortable. My daughter felt secure and appreciated all the updates he provided. Will definitely keep him in mind for the next time I need a pet sitter.”
“Thank you so much for watching and taking such good care of Higgins while we were gone! It is comforting to know that not only do you all like him but he loves visiting! Thank you!”
