About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

About: Hi, I’m Mandy! I’ve always had a soft spot for cats, and as someone who has two of my own, I know just how much personality each kitty can have.🐱 I have professional experience caring for cats from my time working at a doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for cats alongside dogs. I understand how important it is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible while you’re away. I pay close attention to the little things, whether that’s noticing a change in behavior or appetite, keeping their litter box clean, making sure they have fresh food and water, or giving them plenty of playtime and attention. I’m also happy to give shy cats their space and let them come to me at their own pace. Communication is important to me, so I’ll keep you updated throughout your cat’s stay and let you know if I notice anything unusual. You’ll also receive daily updates and photos, so you can check in on your kitty and have peace of mind while you’re away!

About: I have always loved cats and enjoy caring for them with patience and attention. I have experience feeding, playing with, cleaning up after, and spending time with cats to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand that every cat has its own personality and needs, and I will treat your pet like family.
“Five stars for Alicia! She was wonderful with my cat! I contacted her last minute and she was quick to answer. I was able to go on my trip without worrying as she was constantly keeping me updated with messages/pictures. I am thankful to Alicia as she was patient, kind and sweet to my cat (he gets nervous when a new person comes around) but she was able to get him to be comfortable around her. As well, Alicia kept my apartment safe and tidy while being away on my trip. I will definitely reach out to her next time I need to leave my fur baby at home.”

“Kat was very responsive and attentive to our pups! She was happy to accommodate a stop in visit at the last minute and gave us plenty of updates along the way. I would definitely recommend her services! :)”

If you are looking for someone who is compassionate and trustworthy; Brandan is the one!”

About: Hi, I’m Mandy! I’m an Animal Science graduate from Cal Poly with a lifelong love for animals and hands-on experience caring for all kinds of pets. During college, I worked at a professional doggy daycare and boarding facility, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. My experience has taught me that caring for a dog is about more than just walks, meals, and playtime—it’s about understanding them. I’m very familiar with dog body language and behavior and pay close attention to the little things that tell me how a pup is feeling. Whether your dog is playful and energetic, shy and cautious, or somewhere in between, I take the time to get to know them and make them feel comfortable. Communication is a huge priority for me. If your pup gets injured, has an upset stomach, vomits, has diarrhea, starts acting differently, or simply seems a little “off,” I’ll let you know as soon as possible. You’ll never be left wondering how your pup is doing while they’re in my care! And because I know how much we all miss our pets when we’re away, I’ll provide daily report cards so you can keep up with all the fun, cuddles, walks, and adventures your pup had that day. 🐶💕 My goal is to give your pup the same patience, attention, and care I would want someone to give my own pets. I’d love the opportunity to get to know your furry family member! I currently work from home, so I’m home for most of the day and have plenty of flexibility to give your pup attention, care, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule can vary from day to day, but I’m generally able to work pet care into my routine and make sure your pup’s needs always come first. If I do need to step out for a little while -whether I’m grocery shopping, running an errand, meeting a friend -you can still feel confident knowing your pup is safe and cared for. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable and settled before I leave and will always plan around their feeding, potty, medication, and exercise needs. I’m happy to discuss your pup’s specific routine and schedule ahead of time so we can find what works best for everyone! I live in an apartment with my two dogs and two cats, so my home is already a pet-friendly environment. My dogs are very well socialized and have experience being around dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. They have never been ones to instigate a fight, but I always prioritize safety and comfort when introducing animals. When caring for your pup, I’ll keep interactions with my own pets limited at first and will have my pets in a separate space when needed so your dog can settle in and feel comfortable without being overwhelmed. If you’re comfortable with it and your pup seems like a good match, I’d also be more than happy to gradually introduce them to my dogs after they’ve had some time to settle in. I do live in an apartment, but I have access to a fenced-in yard where I regularly take my own dogs to potty, stretch their legs, and get some outdoor playtime. I’m happy to give your pup plenty of opportunities to get outside as well, depending on their routine and needs.

About: Hi everyone! Welcome to my page! My name is Vanessa. I am currently a student looking to fuel my passions for animal care as my side hobby. I worked as a bather for 2 years at PetsMart before changing professions. I would love to care for your furry baby and will ensure patience is practiced. :333 🧡 I currently have three pooches: a Pomeranian named Kobe, a Shimu named Muki, and a Flat coated named Erza. I am on the journey to being an educator and in the meantime, still want to keep my passions for animals alive and I feel Rover is a great fit for that. 🫶🏾 Currently, I am on summer break so my availability is full time and same day right now! If you need a moments notice, I am available! Currently, I have 3 dogs in my home and a crested gecko. I have a doggy door and so my doggies are able to come in and out as they please especially due to the hot weather right now!
“We were in town to visit the National Parks and Kendra did an incredible job with our skittish dog. She was able to build trust quickly and get her the exercise she needed. I appreciate her patience and professionalism. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who may be passing through and needing someone trustworthy!”


About: I’m a dedicated 21 year old dog lover who currently cares for two rescued female puppies. They are friendly and fixed :) Raising young shelter dogs has given me hands-on experience with puppy routines, socialization, basic training, exercise, and lots of patience. I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Growing up, I also owned a Chihuahua and spent time dog walking for others ever since I was a kid, which helped me learn how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with active puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need extra attention and reassurance. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a caring companion while you're away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as a delivery driver, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to stay close to home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I care for my own two young dogs every day, so pet care is already a major part of my routine. When I'm not working, I spend time walking, training, playing with, and caring for them. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care and make sure they receive the attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, dogs have access to a large, securely fenced yard where they can play, exercise, and explore safely under supervision. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet place to relax. If a dog needs their own space, I can separate them using a dog gate and provide a comfortable area in my home where they can rest safely. I always monitor interactions between pets and make sure each dog is comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels at home.

About: I’m a proud toy poodle mom of two, so caring for small dogs is part of my everyday life. Dogs are very special to me, especially as a deaf person—I rely on body language and visual awareness, which makes me extremely observant and attentive to a dog’s needs, behavior, and safety. What sets me apart is my patience, calm energy, and strong understanding of how dogs communicate without words. I’m especially comfortable with small breeds, shy dogs, and dogs who need gentle care. I work alongside my mom in her home childcare business, which is located right next to my house. Because of this, I am home most of the day and nearby at all times. My schedule is very flexible, and I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and supervision. Pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods. They become part of our calm, structured daily routine and receive lots of attention and care throughout the day. Safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and supervised home environment. I closely monitor body language and behavior to ensure every dog feels safe and relaxed. I follow feeding schedules, give regular potty breaks, and keep pet parents updated with messages and photos. Your pet will be treated with love and care, just like my own two toy poodles.

About: I'm definitely an animal magnet...I love being around animals. I will love and spoil them as if they are my own furbabies! They will never be left alone. I was born and raised around dogs and cats. I can’t imagine not having any furbabies in my home. I’d be lost. They are so loyal furbabies. I'm very flexible with my schedule. I'm usually available most of the time. I can do weekends and on Holiday, too. Just DM me! 🐶🐈🐾 My front and backyard are fenced and I do have a rail in the backyard for older dogs to walk down to go potty. I can definitely play with them while outside or even give them lots of cuddles! They will remain indoors with me at all times. I don’t believe in leaving them outside. That’s how spoiled they’d be if I was to babysit them. ♥️♥️

“Renee was fantastic with our dog. Her home was welcoming and with the space necessary for our medium sized dog! She is caring and kind and will always be one of our first calls on Rover!”


About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

We will definitely be booking Akie again if we’re ever in the area!”

During certain months there will be availability during weekdays I provide a safe, welcoming environment with a fenced backyard and one friendly cat, Kurin, for companionship. If needed, I can easily crate your pup. I always supervise playtime, ensure pets have fresh water, and give them plenty of love and attention so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I would like them to roam freely around the house unless specified otherwise. The goal is to try and recreate their normal routine, so they feel at home.

“Melissa was absolutely great with our Ariel. Ariel had the best time. Melissa sent pictures and updates. Ariel was happy while being there. Definitely will be using Melissa again”


About: I’ve been taking care of homes & pets since I was 11 years old. I always make sure there is a safe environment and room for a pet to be themselves. I look forward to caring for your sweet animals!:) I currently work part time and am home quite a bit so I have ample time to spend with your dog. I also have a massive backyard with grass area, plants, and a pool if they like swimming. My priority is to make sure that your pet feels comfortable around me regardless of the environment. I believe that once the pet feels safe with its caretaker, then the environment doesn’t play a huge role.
“Haley took great care of my pups! Loved getting the updates and pictures. They hadn’t been there in nearly a year and they immediately remembered and were SUPER excited the moment we got to Haley’s driveway.”
“Misty Blue (my GSP) had so much fun. It was a last minute request and Veronica immediately responded. I was very thankful and I am a happy client. I will be using her services in the future if I ever need a sitter. She periodically sent me updates on Misty which eased my mind.”
