“Melissa and her family and pets were wonderful and took excellent care of my dog when I had to go out of town. She is easy to communicate with and sends regular updates which is appreciated. I can highly recommend her.”
“If I could leave 6 stars, I would. Amy and Justin were amazing watching my dog Chubbs for over a week. They have a great yard for dogs and dog bed all around their house - it is basically a resort for the doggos. The end of each day they sent over a bunch of photos with a recap of the day. I don’t think Chubbs wanted to leave!”
“We absolutely love Michelle and highly recommend her. She is loving with our pets and makes them feel right at home. You will never regret using Michelle when you have pet setting needs.”
“Patti and her husband took great care of my puppy! I was updated with pictures and videos the whole time. I felt at ease knowing Tilly was in such safe and caring hands❤️”
“Alexa is an angel! We have two dogs whom are used to being with my husband and I 24/7 because we both work remotely. We are very selective in who we have watch our boys while we are gone (typically family or friends would come to our home and stay with them)… but we moved from Southern to Northern California so need to figure out an alternative. After searching Rover I came across Alexa’s profile and read each review and she stood out as someone that could be a good fit for my boys. I reached out and was immediately impressed with Alexa’s responsiveness, and decided to proceed with an introduction. It couldn’t have gone better. Alexa had clearly studied my dogs profiles to get familiar with the basic needs of each and I appreciated the questions she asked to understand their normal routine. Within just a short time of drop off, Alexa sent an update with pictures which allowed us to see that they were making themselves right at home and enjoying play time and snuggles. My Boys looked relaxed, content, and exercised. I’ll definitely book with Alexa again!”
“I highly recommend Blaze! She provided excellent care, and kept me updated with photos and videos. My dog was comfortable with her and her childrens. (My dog is Anxious). If I have to do it again, I would do it in an heartbeat.”
“Daniel & Hung are fabulous! My Shibas have very different personalities and Daniel & Hung were very accommodating and patient with them. They are also very easy to get ahold of / respond really fast. We’re really happy that we found them and have a go-to sitter now!”
“Thank you for being flexible with the time. We truly appreciate your reliability and dependability in taking care of Lucky! ♥️♥️♥️ Pranavi is highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Walee was awesome!! She sent me pictures everyday and she cared for my pet as if it were her own. She took him to the river and on long walks everyday so he was good and tired! I will forever use walee when I go out of town!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Irina. While I was on vacation, one of my dogs developed a ruptured cyst (from what I later realized was caused by a small nip from my other pup who got angry at him the day I dropped them off with Irina). This could have been an extremely stressful and scary situation but Irina handled it with absolute professionalism, compassion, and care. Not only did she notice it immediately, send pictures, and communicate every step of the way, she also took my dog to our veterinary hospital on a Sunday to make sure he was properly diagnosed and treated. With her veterinary degree, she clearly knew how to manage the situation, and assure me Ralphy was doing okay and it was treatable (which gave me so much peace of mind while I was out of the Country). On top of this she kept me updated on both dogs, and sent lots of pictures and videos. I feel incredibly lucky to have found someone so caring, knowledgeable, and reliable to watch my 2 Senior Dogs. I recommend Irina wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a pet sitter who treats your pets as if they were their own.”
“Would highly recommend!! Communication was superb and my doggies were treated like additional members of the family. I received lots of pictures and updates that made me feel confident that they were in great hands and enjoying themselves!! Will definitely be using again ❤️🫶”
“Barbara and family was very kind and welcoming to my dog. She asked all the questions that made me feel like my girl was going to be well taken care of even to the extent of switching her sleeping habits to my dog’s. I highly recommend! Thank you so much for taking care of my girl!”
“Ruchi was wonderful with my dog Lucy. She has two other dogs,and she made sure they all got along. She sent pictures,and that made me feel at ease. I would highly recommend Ruchi, and will use her service again.”
“Carrie is the best! She always treats my pup like her own and makes him feel right at home. I appreciate her daily comments and photos. She is my #1 go to when I need a Rover sitter.”
“Lots of photo and video updates! Sharon & Henry are so kind and the dogs really feel safe with them. The extra love and care to make sure my boys felt safe after we moved here and it was my first time going out of town, made us all feel so much better. 10/10 would recommend booking with them!”
“She was definitely an angel! I had a dog emergency and needed him to stay the night with someone so i found lisette on rover and when i tell you she’s the sweetest lady I have ever met! If I could give her 100 stars I would :)”
“Sharon and Albert were outstanding during Gatsby's 12-day stay with them. She is super responsive, sends tons of pictures and really took the time to understand Gatsby's needs, likes and behaviors. He had an amazing time, made tons of friends and I had a super stress-free trip knowing that he was in great hands. Her home & backyard is so pup-friendly and perfect for outdoor playtime - Gatsby had an amazing time, came home tired and happy. I will definitely be taking him to Sharon the next time I need to leave him when I'm away.”
“I'm glad I found Michael and Patricia. Josie felt at ease with them right away so it made me feel good about leaving her with them. They are a wonderful couple who really care about dogs. I rarely go out of town, but if I ever need a sitter for Josie in the future, they'd be the ones I'd book a stay with.”

“Chelsea took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away for a week. She provided twice a day feedings, which included medicating our senior cat, she played “fetch” with our junior cat that lives for treats, and for us she sent informative updates and fabulous photos of them both, and so much more! Chelsea’s compassion and kindness, and her integrity and reliability are the reason for this 5-star rating. We cannot thank Chelsea enough for watching our girls and we look forward to seeing Chelsea again in the future!”
“Cole provided excellent care and attention for our indoor and our outdoor(feral) cats. Instructions were followed perfectly, and we received detailed updates and communications, and plenty of photos of both of them which we looked forward to receiving for each visit. Will definitely be using Cole again in the future, 10/10 service! Thank you ☺️”
About: I have personal experience taking care of small, medium, and large size dog breeds and understand the different needs that come along with different dogs to include high energy and low energy animals. I am adamant about following pet routines to include walking, feeding, reinforcing house rules and play time. Pets have always been an integral part of family life in my experience and I believe that they deserve all the love and attention that we have to give. I currently have two dogs of my own, Maddy is a large ball of energy that enjoys running, tug of war, and lots of belly rubs, and we have Woofy who is an older gentleman that enjoys snuggles and gentle head scratches. Both of my dogs, like all other dogs have they own personality and needs and I would enjoy fostering that with your family pet as well.
About: I have been around breeds of all kinda. I have even taken care of a neighbor 3 dogs. They had a basset hound, boxer and an american bull dog. I currently do have pets but it doesnt give me the option to list since they are not cats or dogs. I have 2 geese, 6 ducks, and 5 chickens I love being around animals. It will be able to work with me and be able to be home for my daughter when she gets home from school. She loves dogs and cats. I will be able to care for the fur baby or babies in the client's home while they are away on vacation or just out of town for a few days. I will be able to stop by and check on them. take on walks, feed and water.
“I was initially worried because my cat tends to be anxious when I leave. Ashlin watched my cat for 4 days and did a great job making him feel comfortable, safe, and mentally stimulated. She was even able to give him some medication. Definitely will be asking her to watch my pets in the future!”
“Shileen is excellent. It was quite obvious that our German Shepherd got attached to her quickly. Since she has two dogs of her own, she related to Gabby in no time at all. She played catch with her, walked around the properly with her, and updated us with photos daily. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog under her care. I will be requesting her dog sitting services again.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs & cats my entire life and there is no job I would rather do than hangout with them all day. I pride myself on being attentive to the pets I watch as well as being communicative with the owners. I am currently home from college for the summer so I have nothing but free time. Feel free to turn to me for last minute bookings due to my wide open schedule. I love going on walks as a way to get both your pet’s exercise as well as mine. But most importantly I provide attention, safety, and comfortability for pets.
“Ruth took excellent care of our 3 kitties! I love that she was very thorough and took the time to let us know in detail everything she did with each visit. Although our kitties are very shy and hid under the bed when she came over, she still made sure to check on them and snap a pic so we could see their glowing eyes under the bed. ? We would definitely recommend Ruth and will be happy to have her care for our kitties again. ?”
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, and no matter where I go, I always find myself surrounded by furry friends. I love staying active, and walking with a pup by my side is my favorite way to explore. I bring that same care and enthusiasm to every pet I look after. My schedule is very flexible, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. Since I’m self-employed, I can adjust my day to match your pet’s needs—whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, or just making sure they have plenty of attention and companionship. In my client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I treat every home with respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just as I found them.

About: I’ve cared for cats of all personalities since I was young, growing up on a farm surrounded by animals. I understand that cats need patience, a calm environment, and consistent care to feel safe and comfortable. I provide a peaceful, low-stress setting where your cat can relax and feel at home. I’m attentive to feeding routines, litter box cleanliness, and behavior changes, and I take the time to build trust with each cat at their own pace. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I adjust my care to fit their needs. My goal is to make sure your cat feels secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away so you don’t have to worry.

I’m so excited to help care for your pets when available, providing enrichment, exercise, or more.

“This was my first time using ROVER.and am completely satisfied!! We arrived at our hotel and learned that while it is pet friendly you can’t leave your animal unattended. We had planned two days of motorcycle riding and having him ride in front of me was not an option. In a panic I downloaded Rover from the App Store and found Michele!! The entire family was AMAZING!! Their dog CC made Moultrie feel at home. In fact he had such a great time the first day that he bounded into the house the next morning! THANK YOU for everything!! Jessica”
About: Hi, I grew up around several different animals of all sizes from rodents/reptiles to livestock/dogs. I have always had at least one dog in my life at all times. The more the merrier. I love all animals big and small. I worked at a kennel where I learned about boarding and training dogs for about a year and I have pet sat for about 15 years in grand total. I currently work at a pet store in Sutter Creek. I love being around dogs and training or even just hanging out and playing. I am a outdoorsy person. I have experience with livestock animals also. Horses, cattle, chickens, Lhamas, mini animals, donkeys. I have references also if you would like them. Our home is completely fenced and sits on 3 acres. We have two friendly german shepherds. I work part time so some days I am gone at work. But our 17 year old daughter is always home. We also go to church Sunday morning so we would be gone for a couple hours but otherwise we are always home. I care for pets in my home as I would my own. I have 3 German Shepherds. 10 months to 7 years old. As for in home pet sitting I would follow whatever routine you have set for your fur babies already so it would be easier on them.
“Sabrina was great! She kept me notified throughout the time my puppy was in her care. My puppy was a little nervous and showed a little anxiety at first. Sabrina gave him a little guidance to help him feel more comfortable and confident to be in the area. I think it was great for Clifford to be around different animals and experience her backyard:) I will definitely book again soon 👍”
“My high-energy large Lab and Golden Retriever puppy had an amazing day with Michelle and her family on their farm, and came home tired and well-cared for ❤️. Hope they will be able to visit again soon! Thank you again!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. My very first pet was my childhood cat, who I got when I was 2 years old and who lived with me for 17 wonderful years before crossing the rainbow bridge. I’ve always had a special connection with animals and a passion for caring for them. Over the years, I’ve gained experience caring for many different types of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and more. I currently have two Dobermans and a kitty of my own. I recently moved to a 2 acre property, which has been amazing for training and working with my dogs, they’re truly thriving with the space and lifestyle they deserve. To me, pets are family, and I always strive to give them the best care, attention, and love possible. I’ve also rescued and fostered kittens in need, helping them find safe and loving forever homes. Caring for animals genuinely brings me happiness, and having them in my life has always been incredibly fulfilling. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to your pets. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine since I already care for my own animals every day. At my home, pets have access to a large, secure fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I also have spacious fenced in kennels available if needed for safety, rest time, or individual comfort. Pets are always supervised, given plenty of attention, and cared for in a clean, calm environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always respect their routines, instructions, and house rules to help pets feel comfortable and stress free in their familiar environment. I like to check in with pet parents often, sending pictures and updates to give them peace of mind while their pets are in my care.
About: I have always been in love with animals, and so from a young age I have always been the one to help a person babysit there fur babies if needed, and what better way to spend time making money, taking care of different amazing animals. It brings me pure joy!:) I am pretty flexible and could do it any day of the week, but I prefer not to do over nights unless you are gone for long periods of time. I always make sure that other peoples pets are comfortable with me, and have everything that they need, and more. One on one time with the animals are also important to me as the bond clicks faster. I will always make sure everyone’s animals are 100% being taken of with only the best care! And loved!!!!
“Henry and Sharon have been amazing dog sitters for my 7month old puppy Bodhi. They watch him for puppy daycare one day weekly. They are very communicative and reliable and make sure they understand your dog’s personality and care needs so they can make it a comfortable and positive stay. We had a meet and greet with their dog Rufus prior to setting up daycare and Bodhi and Rufus play very well together. They always send a Rover card documenting how the day went with photos and potty breaks. They even go above and beyond and give Bodhi mental enrichment with puzzles and healthy treats. Thank you Sharon and Henry for taking such good care of my little boy!”
“We were visiting Folsom for a birthday party and left our Pomeranian with Shannon for about 4 hours so we wouldn't have to worry about Belle getting fed by the kids and all. It was so nice to be able to relax while Belle hung out with Shannon and some other dogs! All went well and we got a few videos of Belle! Shannon was very good at communicating with us.”
“Sara is the absolute best. Thank you for making Harleys stays with you so enjoyable. We will continue to use her services without a doubt. One of the best you’ll find on Rover! ❤️”
About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life. I grew up with dogs, including a Golden Retriever and a Collie, and I’ve always had a soft spot for animals of all kinds. After settling down and starting our family, we were ready to welcome a dog back into our lives. In 2024, we adopted Izzy, our sweet and friendly German Shorthaired Pointer. Our family absolutely loves having Izzy around, and I’d love the opportunity to give your dog that same attention, affection, and care while you’re away. I work from home, so your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. They’ll have plenty of companionship throughout the day, along with playtime, potty breaks, attention, and lots of love. If you prefer I visit your home to check in on your animal, I am happy to do so. I can stay at your home between 9a-2pm M-F or pop in on weeknights and weekends, or you may opt to board them at our home. We live in a clean, comfortable, family-friendly home on nearly half an acre with a fully fenced yard and a doggie door. Dogs staying with us can easily go in and out throughout the day to play, explore, relax in the yard, or come back inside whenever they want. Your dog will be treated like one of the family and cared for in a safe, loving home environment. I’m happy to answer any questions, arrange a meet-and-greet, or even give you a quick tour so you can feel completely comfortable with where your treasured family member will be staying. I’d love to meet you and your pup! ❤️ I work from home and am available every day, all day, to meet your pet's needs. I have a large fenced backyard with a doggie door for potty breaks and play time. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. Because I only host one dog family at a time, I can provide individualized attention and avoid the stress that can come with a home full of unfamiliar animals. We have a clean, non-smoking, kid-friendly home and a large, fully fenced yard. Our doggie door provides supervised-by-presence access between the house and fenced yard, giving your dog the flexibility to go outside for potty breaks or play without having to wait for someone to open the door. Izzy is friendly and enjoys having other dogs around, but I will always make introductions thoughtfully and pay close attention to each dog's personality and comfort level. I'll follow your dog's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications, sleep preferences, and any special instructions. You'll also receive daily photo updates so you can see how your pup is doing while you're away.
“Elaine, treated Cruz like one of her own. She gave her lots of love and attention. Cruz had such a great time with her and her pups that she didn’t want to leave each day, and was ecstatic going back each morning. Elaine provided us with great pics and detailed updates. So thankful to know that Cruz had a wonderful week of daycare with her!!”

Additionally I have two older French bulldogs who are house trained and very friendly, as well as two cane corsos who get along well with all animals including pony,goats, and pigs- they’re all pals! All of my animals are well-behaved , and I’ve often been told I should’ve been a vet or a dog trainer because of my love for animals. I have two separate backyards-one for the smaller dogs and one for the bigger ones. However I’m accustomed to rotating them due to my experience as a whelper. I know how to manage introducing new dogs and keeping them separate if needed.My dogs have access to indoors and outdoors, and they sleep in the house at night. I’ve set up set up my garage to be cozy and welcoming for dogs to stay in at night.
About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, and a wide variety of animals.

I also live a very active lifestyle and make sure every dog gets the movement, playtime, and attention they need to feel happy and comfortable.

About: I love cats and dogs and will make sure they get lots of attention and that their area is kept clean and tidy so you come home to a nice place!

“Alexa was wonderful with our shy pup Ollie. She sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which gave us such peace of mind. Ollie takes time to warm up to new people, and Alexa was incredibly patient and she let him come around on his own terms. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust with our little guy. Highly recommend Alexa!”
About: I've had two dogs of my own as an adult, grew up with family dogs, and regularly do walks and drop-ins for my neighbor's dog. Both of my boys were brachycephalic breeds, so I understand how much care that takes — I'm especially attentive to heat sensitivity, breathing, and pacing during walks, and I know how to read a dog's signals and adjust accordingly. I've taken several dog training classes, read several books on positive dog training, and understand a dog's body language and signals. I've also cared for both senior and sick dogs, including my English bulldog who lived to 12 and my Frenchie that I supported through IVDD and surgery. I'm currently between jobs at the moment, and both my kids are in school. I'm generally open from 9am to 4pm for drop-ins and walks. I am extremely cautious and respectful in people's homes, and sensitive to both to their privacy and their belongings. I don't even like opening the fridge in my siblings' own homes.
“Blaze is absolutely THE BEST! I needed someone last minute and she was available and took amazing care of my dog. He helped her do all the fam chores this morning, met a bunch of new animals and loved her kids. Would recommend 1000%”

“Chelsea is great! She responds quickly, shows up on time, is flexible, and has worked with me to address my dog’s needs. My dog takes a while to warm up to people, but she felt comfortable with Chelsea almost immediately and I did as well. If you are in the Jackson area I highly recommend Chelsea as a dog walker.”
“Cole was amazing with our beagle puppy, Cowboy. Cole was super communicative and friendly, and he took Cowboy on a long walk at the nearby dog park. Cole has dogs of his own, so he has a wealth of knowledge on how to train and take care of our dog. Would highly recommend Cole!”

About: As someone who grew up with dogs, both small and large, I've learned what it takes to make sure the puppies are well cared for, between giving them the right food, making sure they go on walks, and grooming. Our pets are our best friends and so we should take the greatest care of them, and I'm willing to do that for all animals alike. I'm currently a part time worker both on weekends and weekdays and have lots of time to dedicate to taking care of pets. The only time I would not be able to offer my services is dueing weekends. In my home, I have a fenced yard to allow for our big huskies to have space to play and run, offering them toys that I know would keep them entertained. I also make sure to clean my dogs and ensure they eat healthily.
About: Growing up we always had some sort of pet or critter in the home and I can’t imagine my life without a furry companion. I have years of experience caring for cats and dogs old and young. I have experience in dog training as I raised a seeing eye dog in high school. I am also familiar with the care of livestock, chickens, reptiles, and more and would be happy to care for them as well!

Feel free to turn to me for last minute bookings due to my wide open schedule. I love going on walks as a way to get both your pet’s exercise as well as mine. But most importantly I provide attention, safety, and comfortability for pets.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover, and no matter where I go, I always find myself surrounded by furry friends. I love staying active, and walking with a pup by my side is my favorite way to explore. I bring that same care and enthusiasm to every pet I look after. My schedule is very flexible, so pet care naturally fits into my daily routine. Since I’m self-employed, I can adjust my day to match your pet’s needs—whether that’s regular walks, feeding times, or just making sure they have plenty of attention and companionship. In my client’s home, I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I treat every home with respect—keeping things clean, secure, and just as I found them. While making sure your pet gets plenty of attention, care, and companionship

About: Hi, I grew up around several different animals of all sizes from rodents/reptiles to livestock/dogs. I have always had at least one dog in my life at all times. The more the merrier. I love all animals big and small. I worked at a kennel where I learned about boarding and training dogs for about a year and I have pet sat for about 15 years in grand total. I currently work at a pet store in Sutter Creek. I love being around dogs and training or even just hanging out and playing. I am a outdoorsy person. I have experience with livestock animals also. Horses, cattle, chickens, Lhamas, mini animals, donkeys. I have references also if you would like them. Our home is completely fenced and sits on 3 acres. We have two friendly german shepherds. I work part time so some days I am gone at work. But our 17 year old daughter is always home. We also go to church Sunday morning so we would be gone for a couple hours but otherwise we are always home. I care for pets in my home as I would my own. I have 3 German Shepherds. 10 months to 7 years old. As for in home pet sitting I would follow whatever routine you have set for your fur babies already so it would be easier on them.
About: Enrichment. Walks. Adventure time. With me, you will always have an energetic individual who will go the distance! I go hiking 3+ days out of the week and am a natural pet-lover. This would showcase that I will always have the stamina to walk with your animals. I also keep a tight schedule and vow to always stick to the routines, recommended needs, and other care information that you provide. At the end of the day, a pet is truly a human’s best friend and deserves the best care. I hope you keep me in mind when you need an individual to look after your animal! Only the best care for them. I also have a reactive dog in-training, so I have tons of hands-on experience! Sincerely, Shileen Andico I’m currently working full-time as a teacher, with summers off and breaks during holidays! This leaves me available for all times available for walks, check-ins, etc! Working with a reactive dog, I understand that care and making a dog feel safe is always top priority! I will ensure that your dog will feel comfortable with me.
About: I adore animals. I have two dogs of my own that I love more than life. I can provide dog sit anywhere that works best for you! I am currently working a part-time job so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups. I have a very flexible schedule. I enjoy playing with pets to encourage their mental health along with physical health. I will report any concerning issues and will go on walks as scheduled
About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure.

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, and a wide variety of animals. That background allows me to confidently care for pets of all temperaments—from high-energy dogs to those that need extra patience and structure. My home sits on 11 acres, giving dogs plenty of safe space to explore and get real exercise not just short walks. I also live a very active lifestyle and make sure every dog gets the movement, playtime, and attention they need to feel happy and comfortable. Your pet won’t just be ‘watched’—they’ll be cared for, exercised, and treated like part of the family. I provide a clean, safe, smoke-free home and send regular updates so you always have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m available every day after 2:30 PM and fully available on weekends. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give consistent attention, exercise, and supervision. I prioritize reliability, so your pet’s schedule stays consistent and stress-free while you’re away. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment on a peaceful 11-acre property. Pets always have plenty of space to explore while remaining supervised. I follow each owner’s specific instructions closely, including feeding, routines, and any special needs. I can crate if requested and ensure all animals are separated when needed for safety and comfort.

“Melissa and her family and pets were wonderful and took excellent care of my dog when I had to go out of town. She is easy to communicate with and sends regular updates which is appreciated. I can highly recommend her.”
“If I could leave 6 stars, I would. Amy and Justin were amazing watching my dog Chubbs for over a week. They have a great yard for dogs and dog bed all around their house - it is basically a resort for the doggos. The end of each day they sent over a bunch of photos with a recap of the day. I don’t think Chubbs wanted to leave!”
“We absolutely love Michelle and highly recommend her. She is loving with our pets and makes them feel right at home. You will never regret using Michelle when you have pet setting needs.”
“Alexa is an angel! We have two dogs whom are used to being with my husband and I 24/7 because we both work remotely. We are very selective in who we have watch our boys while we are gone (typically family or friends would come to our home and stay with them)… but we moved from Southern to Northern California so need to figure out an alternative. After searching Rover I came across Alexa’s profile and read each review and she stood out as someone that could be a good fit for my boys. I reached out and was immediately impressed with Alexa’s responsiveness, and decided to proceed with an introduction. It couldn’t have gone better. Alexa had clearly studied my dogs profiles to get familiar with the basic needs of each and I appreciated the questions she asked to understand their normal routine. Within just a short time of drop off, Alexa sent an update with pictures which allowed us to see that they were making themselves right at home and enjoying play time and snuggles. My Boys looked relaxed, content, and exercised. I’ll definitely book with Alexa again!”
“I highly recommend Blaze! She provided excellent care, and kept me updated with photos and videos. My dog was comfortable with her and her childrens. (My dog is Anxious). If I have to do it again, I would do it in an heartbeat.”

“Sharon and Albert were outstanding during Gatsby's 12-day stay with them. She is super responsive, sends tons of pictures and really took the time to understand Gatsby's needs, likes and behaviors. He had an amazing time, made tons of friends and I had a super stress-free trip knowing that he was in great hands. Her home & backyard is so pup-friendly and perfect for outdoor playtime - Gatsby had an amazing time, came home tired and happy. I will definitely be taking him to Sharon the next time I need to leave him when I'm away.”
