“My senior dog was really well taken care of by Alexis and Melisa. I loved that they sent me photos several times a day and kept us updated with meals and daily activities.”
“Susan was amazing with Hope! My senior dog can be a bit anxious. But Hope fit right in with the other pups, I’m sure due to Susan’s calmness and caring. Susan communicated well with me while we were away…relieving my bit of anxiety as well! I will definitely use Susan’s services again!!”
“Anhdao was amazing and provided constant updates! She sent a ton of pictures which was very comforting and put me at ease. 10/10 recommend and will rebook in the future!”

“Armando was very quick to respond and did a great job with our puppy Haku! We could tell Haku had a great time and was very calm and comfortable in Armando’s presence. Armando’s yard is also very well kept and spacious. We will definitely book again!”
“Skylar watched our dog, Sophie, for the second time, and once again she was amazing! She kept us updated with regular messages and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Sophie was happy, loved, and exceptionally well cared for throughout her stay. We truly appreciate the attention and care Skylar provides, and it’s comforting to know Sophie is in such great hands. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”

“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“Our dog really enjoyed her time there. We received daily updates with pictures and videos from Rachel. Our dog came back happy and well-taken care of. We will definitely book Rachel and Preston's services next time we are in need of a dog-sitter!!”
About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs isn't a side job—it's my full-time profession. As a professional dog trainer, I bring a deeper understanding of canine behavior, communication, and safety than the average sitter. Because I work from home, your dog receives consistent supervision, structure, and personalized attention throughout the day. My goal isn't just to provide a place for your dog to stay—it's to give them a safe, enriching experience where they feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely at home. Hi! I'm Carter, a full-time professional dog trainer with over four years of experience in dog training, boarding, and behavior. Working with dogs isn't a side job—it's my career and my passion. Because I train dogs full-time from my home, I'm able to seamlessly integrate every dog into my daily routine. Your dog won't spend hours alone waiting for me to get home from work. Instead, they'll receive consistent supervision, companionship, exercise, and individualized attention throughout the day. My home features a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under close supervision. At night, dogs sleep in my room with me, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and part of the family. As a professional trainer, I understand canine body language and behavior, allowing me to safely care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your dog is outgoing, shy, or requires extra patience, I'll tailor my care to help them feel safe and at home. My goal is to provide a structured, loving environment where your dog can enjoy their stay while giving you complete peace of mind. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. * 🐾 Full-time professional dog trainer with over 4 years of hands-on experience. * 🏡 Dogs are supervised throughout the day—I work from home full-time. * 🌳 Fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. * ❤️ Dogs are treated like family and sleep in my room, not in isolated kennels. * 👀 Experienced in reading canine body language and preventing conflicts before they happen. * 🦴 Structured daily routine with exercise, enrichment, play, and rest. * 🐕 Care is tailored to each dog's personality, age, energy level, and individual needs. * 📸 Frequent photo and video updates so you can stay connected during your dog's stay. * 🤝 Safety, trust, and clear communication are my highest priorities. * 🛡️ Calm, clean, and low-stress home environment designed to help dogs feel comfortable and secure.
“Ziggy had a great time with Arthur & Hayley! We received lots of updates throughout the stay, and they were very communicative during the entire process. Easy decision!”
“We are so happy with Dawn. Our pups love going over there. She goes above & beyond to care for our pups including walks, pictures & lots of love. Will definitely keep using her family. Her family & home is so lovely. Love Dawn❤️💕❤️💕❤️❤️”
“Breanna and her boys took great care of Koda. He is a husky and is in the middle of blowing his winter coat, I can tell they brushed him often. I would definitely leave Koda with them again. He was walked often and played with daily. It is so nice to be able to go away and not have to worry about our furry family member.”
“It is clear that Anna loves dogs and understands their behaviors and mannerisms. She was able to administer my dogs medication. She was responsible and reliable. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you for all the comforting updates and the many pictures and videos.”
“Mariia was so pleasant to work with. This was our first experience using Rover and we couldn’t be more satisfied. She sent us updates daily and made us feel comfortable keeping our pets with them the entire time. Highly recommend!!!”
“Marley had a great time with Young and her family! Throughout the stay I received updates and photos which is very important to me and I knew my fur baby was in good hands. I highly recommend her!”
“Great experience. Great place. My dog seemed happy and playful after leaving there. I am sure he had a good time. I received pictures throughout the day of him and what he was doing.”
“This was my first time leaving my rescue pup at a stranger's home while I went out of town, and I was so nervous. But Ilse is a "stranger" no longer! Ilse and her family embraced my girl Deja like she was their own, and the numerous photos and videos Ilse sent me showed a relaxed and happy dog. My anxiety was immediately relieved, and I was able to enjoy my own get-a-way. Ilse was a great communicator and so flexible and upbeat. I will be leaving Deja with Ilse again, knowing how perfect the weekend went. Thank you to the family!”
“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”

“Lexy was amazing! Our cat Muscles is usually very shy around new people but he loved Lexy! She not only did what we put on the care instructions she did way above and beyond! Thank you Lexy! Will definitely book again!”
“Hired Amanda to drop by and meet n greet our cat and dogs for an upcoming vacation where the cat has to stay behind. She's absolutely perfect. The animals were interested and engaged immediately. She has a lovely calming demeanor and was comfortable and confident in her role and responsibilities. She has deep ties in this community with mutual acquaintances and many years experience. It's not easy handing over your keys and your fur baby(ies) to a 'stranger' but this felt really right. Hiring her for our out of town dates for drop in visits for the cat.”
About: I’ve pet sat animals since I was 11, taking care of friends and family. I have the most experience in smaller to medium dogs, but I’ve taken brief care of a few larger dogs before. I’ve looked after a couple puppies and I can handle them, but don’t have tons of experience if that’s a need for you. I’m in the Animal Care and Training Program at Moorpark College so I am fairly adept at handling animal behavior. I am also first aid certified in the case of emergencies. I am currently on summer break and have a very flexible schedule, able to fit most client’s needs. I can drop by any time and can give your pets the attention and care they need. Once I start my fall semester my schedule will be updated and may have less flexibility. I will spend time and watch over them wherever their preferred environment is, whether it be inside or outside, I have no trouble sitting outside with your pets who love to sniff around. They can be walked as often as suggested and will be given ample potty breaks if pet sat inside.
About: I’ve been in the care profession a little over ten years, taking care of cats, dogs, children, and even seniors at times. Not everyone understands cats - they can come off as fickle or unpredictable to the untrained observer, but as someone who’s owned cats since childhood and is a lover of felines, I look forward to meeting your furry friend and getting to know their unique personality :) I currently have two cats myself - a senior boy named Buddy and a younger boy named Tough Guy. I’m an open book, so please ask me any questions you may have, and please share anything I should know about your furry friend(s)! Thank you.
“another amazing house sit from Van! went away from two weeks over seas and had so much peace of mind with Van watching over my two cats again. i even re-arranged my trip dates to make sure she was available. as always, she took amazing care of my boys and house; checking on cars, grabbing mail, cleaning before i got back. she goes above and beyond 💖”
“Samantha is doing such a great job taking care of my cat Tyler while I’m out of town. I love the thought and attention she puts into her reviews and photos. You can tell she gets along with pets naturally. thanks Sam!”
“My husband and I needed someone to take care of our 2 cats (and the house) while we were away so we chose Larry, even though we read he is a big dog-lover. It goes without saying that we were nervous leaving a perfect stranger at our house with the cats, after 4 years of not leaving the house for even a single night, but having Larry over put our minds at ease. Larry has a very mellow and quiet personality, so even the skittish cat started to accept having a stranger in the house by the third day. Having someone you don't know come to stay at your house and take care of your pets will always be stressful, but I can honestly say that Larry is 100 % trustworthy when it comes to taking care of both the pets and the house. We already booked him for our next trip away and plan to use him as long as he is available.”
“Molly was the consummate professional throughout our experience with her. She took detailed notes about our kitty's needs, kept us well updated throughout, and, most of all, provided our pet excellent care. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. At the age of 16 I got my very own dog with parental permission. I disciplined him, trained him, and raised him to be a reliable and comforting companion. I still do training with him at least 1-2 times a week. I care for the two other family dogs, one being older and the other being the middle child. The oldest—our old man—has difficulty walking sometimes and eating. I’ve learned to prep and adjust his meals to make it easier for him. I love training and try to be as consistent as possible. I am not a certified trainer—guilty of being self taught—however I know how to teach and enforce basic commands like sit, stay, etc. I love dogs, and cats too, and love every moment I get to spend with them. I’m currently a college sophomore, so my workload is very light and I’ll have plenty of time to hangout with your pets! I am available almost every weekday unless confirmed otherwise. Weekends I am very flexible, unless a prior arrangement has been spoken about before, and I am available from 9am to 6pm. I treat pets like my own children. I believe they need attention, love, and warmth. I love my dog like a son and my two other family dogs like my children as well. I feed all three of them, I bathe all three of them, I pick up messes whether it is an upset stomach to torn up toys or furniture, I take the youngest on walks as he’s the only one properly leash trained, and I give them as many cuddles as they ask for.
“Kimberly takes great care of my pets and is always attentive to details. She's looked after all of my animals multiple times, and I always feel confident that they're in good hands while I am away.”
About: I’ve had very much experience sitting for family and friends pets throughout the past 6 years. I do also have experience working with animals through volunteering at an animal shelter for about a year and a half. As of now, I am working in a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant. I am working my way to become a registered veterinary technician! I do have a dog of my own, he is two years old so he is very energetic! I always make sure to take him on walks before I go to school or work! My grandparents do also have a dog which I will always check on and walk as well! Not only do I have my own personal pet care but I also care for pets while I’m working as a veterinary assistant. My dog does get his regular walks and playtime since he’s still a puppy. I always assure he’s well fed, has fresh water and will sometimes give him specific enrichment toys. I always assure the same goes for my grandparents dog, although she is on the older side, I care for her very well.
“Almira did a great job sitting my cat while I was on a long vacation. She is reliable, accommadating, and communicates very well. I was able to be away without having to worry about my cat. I would definitely use her service again!”
About: I currently have a 4 y/o cat I’ve raised on my own. I absolutely adore cats and love to help other cat owners take care of their own! I have experience in: - feeding/dietary routines - administering medications - playing / mental stimulation activities - litter cleaning
“If I could leave Breanna 10 million stars I would. She went above and beyond with caring for the dogs. She was helpful and kind, and she gave me incredible peace of mind that I was leaving them in good hands.”
“This was our first experience leaving our newly adopted special needs cat alone! Roma was incredibly professional and was easy to reach throughout the day. After every visit, she would send a least 3 photos and sometimes a video then an in-depth summary of her visit with our cat! It was great seeing him playing and cuddling with her, we knew he was in good hands. It meant a lot to us that she was so good with our cat and that he absolutely loved her! She came back later to return our key and our cat went straight over to her to get some love! Her attention to the needs and wellbeing of our son was evident and we felt safe leaving him while we traveled. Thank you Roma for taking care of our Iggy! :)”

“The most amazing experience today while Alexis and his wife Melissa took care our sweet Darla. Being that she is still a puppy I’m always hesitant to leave her with someone I don’t know but from the initial time I let them I became comfortable and Darla was excited meeting them too. I will definitely reach out next time I need someone to take care of our puppy Darla.”
About: We’ve had dogs our whole lives and truly believe every dog has their own unique personality and needs. Spending time with them is something we genuinely enjoy. We live in a townhome right next to a park, which is perfect for relaxed walks, outdoor time, or just sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air together. We also have a fully enclosed patio, giving dogs a safe outdoor space to relax, explore, and get some fresh air. We have a lot of experience caring for senior dogs and are comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether your pup loves a walk in the park or prefers a calm place to rest and get extra attention, we’re happy to give them the care and companionship they deserve. 🐾 My husband works in film, so he’s often home when he’s between projects, and I work from home several days a week. That means dogs staying with us get lots of attention, company, and care throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. In our home, dogs are treated like part of the family and given lots of attention and supervision. We live in a townhome next to a park, and have alot of grassy area which makes it easy to take safe, regular walks, or potty breaks and we also have a fully enclosed patio where dogs can relax outside in a secure space if they like to sun bath. We have AC too so they won’t get to hot in the summer time.

“Jiminy started wagging his tail right away. That is the best sign for a dog mom. Marcella sent photo plus her house house is in a very good location for the west Valley.”
“Armando took great care of our dog, Mancha, with very little advanced notice. He was very flexible with timing and even agreed to a last minute evening meet and greet so our dog could warm up to him before spending the whole day at his place. The next morning, he was excited for his drop off at Armando’s. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog! We are excited to rebook in the future if need be.”

“Janelle was SO patient and sweet with our Moo! She was always punctual on time and we loved the photo updates she would take on the walks! This was our first time using Rover, and I am so happy Moo was in such great hands with Janelle. Will definitely be reaching out to her again!!”
“Larry was amazing! Took our pup out for a solid 1+ hour walk everyday on our 2 week vacation abroad. Our dog clearly felt comfortable and happy with him. He even bought him booties because the side walk was hot!”
About: It's your doggy's world and I just live in it. I am in tune with dog's body language & communication on all levels. I have worked with many different types of dog breeds, sizes and ages. I was also fortunate enough to also work with dogs that were blind, deaf, from a rescue and dogs that were saved from slaughter houses in Korea. I am also experienced in puppy and behavioral training. We will always be on an adventure wether it’s the dog park, beach, hike or just a simple trail all depending on your dog’s age and what activities your dog is able to handle. This is my full time job so I will always be with your baby. I am also CPR &first aid certified with insurance. I can't wait to met your 4 legged furry best friend :) Let’s book a meet & greet! See you soon :) I am full time dedicated to your baby! Dogs are welcome with me everywhere. We will always be productive depending on your dog’s energy level. I will definitely treat your dog as if it’s my own. They will be spoiled with healthy freeze dried treats, doggy froyo and all the yummy stuff. My home is safely fenced. I’m not only a lot of fun but train necessary methods for important things like sitting and waiting when home doors open, learn to sit and wait when car doors are open and most importantly RECALL. I want your dog to know who to run back to in any situation no matter where we are.
About: What sets me apart is my deep commitment to following your exact routine. I am attentive to detail whether your pet requires a strict medication schedule, extra potty breaks, or highly specific care instructions. I truly love animals and focus on giving them my undivided attention, plenty of affection, and the dedicated time they deserve. I am able to care for animals at least 5 times out of the week for 4-6 hours. Depending on the days required, I do have school at certain times a week. I have hobbies and obligations to do as well. I believe 4-6 hours is time that I do have depending on the day of course as mentioned. I could possibly even spend a full day if needed. Again this depends on the day of the week and month. The reason I can’t take in animals at my own home is because I simply don’t have enough space or else I totally would! Also, the baby of the bunch doesn’t do well with new comers. I feed my cats at least 3 times a day they beg like they haven’t eaten in days I might add. They often let me know when they want things by getting my attention and running to the bowl or to their toys or the door to be let out. They have a litter box with cat pellets so It doesn’t stink up the entire house. Laser pointer sessions and dangling cat toys are their favorite. Yes of course the box the cat trees come in are more fun than the actual tree. Cat trees are replaced often, my cats love to chat with me when I talk they talk back. They love wet food every twice a week with many ingredients. My dad’s dog I take care of while he’s on 1 year vacation loves hiking trails that I usually walk on haha. He prefers the best of the best kinds of dog food won’t eat anything else! He’s a good boy and they’re sometimes good cats since they like to knock things over every once in a while or try and pick at my food when I’m on a quick bathroom break. All in all it’s easy to take care of animals in my opinion my cats were not easy to take care of as kittens they needed a lot done and one of them always had issues with her bladder and glands. She’s better now thanks to God and me for the outrageous bills. I’d do it for every animal if I could but I just don’t have enough resources or money to do so. I do love animals and they deserve joy, a wide environment, and amazing care while they’re living and breathing.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid and my experiences have ranged from puppies to senior dogs with special medical needs and disabilities. I’m an animal lover and have love and respect for all living beings. I do my best to make sure your fur baby is comfortable, attended to and loved. I’m currently a stay at home dog mom, so I will have all the time available to take care of your beloved dog. I’m available for boarding, daycare, drop in visits and walking. My home has a roomy, fenced in backyard and I have a super friendly pup at home. There is plenty of space to play, run and sniff! I do not let the dogs go outside unattended. They are always supervised to ensure safety. I’m also able to crate your dog whenever needed if that is preferred.
About: I’ve had animals since I was really young. I even know how to take care of horses. I started riding when I was about 5. I went to my first horse show when I was 13. Animals have always been such a big part of my life. I currently own a chi-weenie named Mateo, he’s now 11. Mateo is super sweet and smart, I’ve taught him tons of tricks. I have worked in doggy daycare and most recently a bather in Sacramento so work I have with tons of dogs on a daily basis. I may be willing to give your dog a bath for a lil extra money just ask about my prices :) Im pretty open scheduled. Am looking for work so that may change in the near future, but as of now book to your heart's desires. I make sure to communicate with my Pet parents to ensure the animals needs are cared for and ask if there anything they need done.
“Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!”

About: I’ve had very much experience sitting for family and friends pets throughout the past 6 years. I do also have experience working with animals through volunteering at an animal shelter for about a year and a half. As of now, I am working in a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant. I am working my way to become a registered veterinary technician! I do have a dog of my own, he is two years old so he is very energetic! I always make sure to take him on walks before I go to school or work! My grandparents do also have a dog which I will always check on and walk as well! Not only do I have my own personal pet care but I also care for pets while I’m working as a veterinary assistant. My dog does get his regular walks and playtime since he’s still a puppy. I always assure he’s well fed, has fresh water and will sometimes give him specific enrichment toys. I always assure the same goes for my grandparents dog, although she is on the older side, I care for her very well.

“Breanna and her boys took great care of Koda. He is a husky and is in the middle of blowing his winter coat, I can tell they brushed him often. I would definitely leave Koda with them again. He was walked often and played with daily. It is so nice to be able to go away and not have to worry about our furry family member.”
“Great experience. Great place. My dog seemed happy and playful after leaving there. I am sure he had a good time. I received pictures throughout the day of him and what he was doing.”
“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”
“Tate would be lucky to get to stay with Candy and her Vizsla again. Candy is very knowledgeable about dogs and their habits. Her calendar fills up quickly so book ahead!”
“We have searched for a family like Nadia’s and are so grateful to have found them. Kona is a loving and energetic lab and loves to cuddle. Nadia is the first sitter to send pictures and updates without me asking. For the first time we can go away and know Kona is happy and loved. A Million Thank Yous to Nadia and her family. 🐾”
“Almira went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Rocky! It was clear she treated him like a member of her own family. She provided regular updates, tons of love, and made sure he felt completely at home. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave us total peace of mind. I’m so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Love the attention Phil and Lauren gave Bailey. Taking her for walks, giving her treats and scratching her butt like she enjoys. They treated her like she was part of their family. Texting me photos of her off and on during her stay which made me feel comfortable. I will definitely use them again.”
“Kiyarash was great! Super friendly, on time, and took amazing care of my senior dog. I appreciate him letting me drop off my dog early in the morning too. He sent updates and my dog Deego came back happy. Definitely booking again with him if needed in the future! :)”
About: We’ve had dogs our whole lives and truly believe every dog has their own unique personality and needs. Spending time with them is something we genuinely enjoy. We live in a townhome right next to a park, which is perfect for relaxed walks, outdoor time, or just sitting outside and enjoying the fresh air together. We also have a fully enclosed patio, giving dogs a safe outdoor space to relax, explore, and get some fresh air. We have a lot of experience caring for senior dogs and are comfortable administering medications when needed. Whether your pup loves a walk in the park or prefers a calm place to rest and get extra attention, we’re happy to give them the care and companionship they deserve. 🐾 My husband works in film, so he’s often home when he’s between projects, and I work from home several days a week. That means dogs staying with us get lots of attention, company, and care throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. In our home, dogs are treated like part of the family and given lots of attention and supervision. We live in a townhome next to a park, and have alot of grassy area which makes it easy to take safe, regular walks, or potty breaks and we also have a fully enclosed patio where dogs can relax outside in a secure space if they like to sun bath. We have AC too so they won’t get to hot in the summer time.
