“We took our fearful little guy, Charlie, to Mariah and Neil’s house as a get- to - know- you- while -Mom- and Dad- are present visit. This was a first venture for our doggie Charlie and us, not a traditional dog-sitting event. We really liked Mariah and Neil. We were impressed with their kindness and awareness in dealing with dogs in their home. We felt they were honest in describing Charlie’s expected behavior in first being boarded with them, and we loved that. We know our dog well enough to know that leaving him in a strange new house wouldn’t immediately (particularly for a fearful dog like Charlie) be all roses and chumminess. We did leave him for about 15 minutes alone with Mariah and Neil (“ fearful parents, not so much fearful dog!”) and Charlie reacted just as Neil and Mariah predicted. Their home feels warm and loving. They have two really adorable pups who are obviously loved and well-adjusted. We would recommend Neil and Mariah as carers and will definitely be trying to book them again soon!”
“I was very nervous to leave my Maltipoo with her because she’s never been with a dog sitter before and she’s very small and has separation anxiety too. But Laila was very good with her and made her feel at ease. I left my Lully with her for 5 hours and she did pretty well. She even played with Laila’s dog which she never plays with other dogs before. I will definitely take her to Laila again whenever I need a sitter.”
“For our second boarding service with Whitney, my dog Cooper was so happy to see her at drop off, wiggling and kissing her. There couldn’t be a better sign than that to know he was in great hands once again.”
“I can't recommend Jacquelyn enough! My senior pup was injured just prior to her stay and had to be given medication and be on restricted movement. Jacquelyn asked questions as needed and provided daily updates. The home itself is really calming, which I'm sure Gertie appreciated. Overall great experience.”
“We’re so grateful to Mark for taking such wonderful care of Brownie over the New Year holiday. Even with the rainy days, everything was perfect — Brownie was an absolute angel, relaxed, happy, and clearly right at home. She loved just hanging out and enjoying the holidays with Mark and his family. Thank you, Mark, for treating her like one of your own and giving us total peace of mind. We truly appreciate the great care and would absolutely recommend you!”
“Halley was so nice & communicative throughout Micah's stay (~5 days). They spent plenty of time outside and even went to an event at the beach. When Micah came home he was tired & content. I definitely recommend Halley if you're looking for someone to care for your pet.”

“My dogs were comfortable with Jessie and I appreciated her flexibly about drop off and pick up times.

“Sonja provided awesome care for Daisy while we were gone for 10 days! She made sure that we all felt comfortable when dropping her off, and she provided plenty of updates while we were away.

“Alexandra and Kelsey were so incredible, i would book them again in a heartbeat! They were amazing with our three cats, and very attentive with our 19yo cat, who requires frequent small feedings because of his age. When we got back it looked like he put on some weight which is wonderful! They were so helpful with caring for our home, took care of packages and kept us updated, and our house looked cleaner than when we left it. Communication was incredibly fast and clear from beginning to end. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing our kitties and home were so well taken care of 💚 Thank you guys so much!!!”

About: Hi! I have working around and with dogs and cats for most of my life, my grandma worked with fosters/rescues and at the Animal Shelter during my childhood and with the experience I have a very good understanding of how to handle most animals and provide them with love and care. I also have a 5 year old Border Collie who keeps me very busy, him and I spent 3+ years in intensive training (positive reinforcement only). This experience in training has helped me to understand cues, reactions and how to redirect with many different breeds of dogs. Thanks for checking out my profile, I’d love to help out with your pups and kitty’s!
“Ember is THEE BEST. Why can't I give her 10 stars?!? She was so communicative and understanding with our crazy travel schedule and reassured me with how my baby was doing. I would recommend her to anyone for her kind, gentle and patient care.”
“When we were planning a holiday trip, Michelle stepped in and gracefully took care of our baby! Felt incredibly comfortable having her watch our cat and we appreciate the amount of professionalism and care she put into the job! 🩷”
“We needed someone to watch our cat and I was nervous going through the app but had limited options since we are new to the area. Zalie was great! Super communicative, kind, and considerate. We needed to change our dates and she was easily reachable and super accommodating. We knew scoots was in good hands and we will be booking Zalie again next month. Also I want to add she knew her stuff! Some of the questions she asked were things I would never think of, it’s clear she takes her job seriously and covers all the bases.”
About: I am a former dog trainer at Dog Gone Amazing training and boarding in Reno Nv for the past 4 and half years. I moved to Eureka to have a new start and would love to continue to work with animals. I’ve worked with many different breeds and many different temperaments. I currently have two dogs of my own and a cat as well. I’ve grown up with all sorts of animals, such a horses, chickens, sled dogs and cats. I would love to continue working with new pets and their owners! I currently have 2 dogs and a cat. I’ve also worked as a kennel tech at a boarding/training facility and then moved on to become a trainer at that same facility. I always recommend crates for any situation but in my own home I would crate all dogs and rotate based on how they all get along. Feeding in the crate or separate from other animals. Daily walks or hikes depending on the animal. Cats would get daily enrichment. If weather doesn’t permit or the animal isn’t able to get that day I’d offer mental enrichment such as lick mats, food puzzles, play, training, etc.
“Kristina was awesome! She watched my cat Tikka for me on a very last minute request and sent me updates every day! Definitely recommend, all of her animals were super cute and sweet and Tikka came home happy and with new friends!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“I would definitely recommend Mariah and Neil for pet sitting. Let’s face it little dogs are sometimes a little more high maintenance. They really seem to understand small dog behavior, which I appreciate! They are great communicators and are fast at responding, which is so helpful. Thank you for letting my pup stay.”
“Mary was great! She was able to take our last minute booking and patiently worked with introducing our anxious dog to hers. She even kindly let our toddler chat with her about everything toddlers chat about (bugs he saw, how he likes the beach and halloween, letters, Spiderman, etc.) when he wanted to come pick up his pup and say hello.”
“Karen and her husband watched our high energy dog for the weekend. We can't thank them enough for their kindness to our fur baby. I would recommend Karen in the future. Wonderful pet sitter. Can't thank her enough!”
About: I've had dogs my entire life so I have experience with dogs of all ages. I currently have a dog and two cats, and I'm also trusted in my neighborhood and amongst family and friends as someone to watch their animals when they're gone. Im a full time college student but I usually always have my own animals in my bedroom with me, sitting under (or on top of) my desk while I work. I have a friendly dog who absolutely loves play dates, so your dog would never get bored. My backyard is quite large so the dogs have tons of room to run around and play. The fences are regularly checked for holes under them to ensure our dog can't get out. I also have two large cat cages in my home where each of my cats sleep, but if needed, they can sleep in the same cage and the other one can be used to provide your pet some privacy, with their own food and water dishes. I have many many many interactive cat toys so even while i'm working, they can play with the toys that are attached to my desk and walls, along with scratching posts.
About: I have experience with dogs and cats, young and old, easy and "difficult". I am very adept at walking and caring for reactive dogs who can have a hard time with other dogs and/or humans, and do my best to avoid any situations that can trigger reactive behaviors. I'm also happy to help keep up any training routines, I'm pretty proficient in general dog training, but I know it always comes down to the individual dogs for what works best. I often have people remark about their pets who usually don't warm up to new people immediately taking a liking to me! I'm also totally respectful of animals who do need time to get to know new people and always meet them where they're at, so more than welcome to accommodate those who need more introduction time. I've had dogs in the family my whole life, and have lived with many cats as roommates, and I've loved them all. I've done extensive house sitting everywhere from big cities to rural areas, for periods of time as long as two months, caring for animals as well as the house and surrounding property. My schedule is very flexible so I can make sure I have plenty of time to give my full attention to your animal friends, I live in a sweet quiet neighborhood in Arcata near the bottoms that's great for regular walks, and I have a car and am happy to take pups out on more special adventures too! I always check in about what's best for each dog, and can tailor care around what their usual schedule is with walks and feeding, what kinds of play they like best, and any training routines I can help reinforce during our time together. I make sure to take extra care with reactive dogs and avoid any situations that may trigger them as best as possible.
About: I have always been an animal lover. Since my teenage years we had dogs and cats in the house. Over the last 17 years I have lived with and cared for 2 dogs and two cats. Sadly 3 of them have passed on at this point, and It's just myself and my 12 yr old husky mix Suki now. I am only employed on a very part time basis, so I have a fairly open and flexible schedule for dog walking, home visits and boarding on most weekdays, and some weekends. I have a fenced back yard perfect for pets to hang out in, and there is also a covered area in the back yard if the weather is rainy. I would also allow them inside the house, but not on furniture :). I am a very active person, I walk my own dog at least twice a day, and would be happy to walk even more with yours!
“Marlen was fantastic--responsive, a clear communicator, and obviously very experienced and knowledgable about dogs. I felt totally confident while Jade was with her that Jade was having a great time. I will definitely be a repeat client. I highly recommend Marlen.”
“Whitney was so wonderful and easy to work with! Our pup had a blast and we’re so grateful for Whitney’s care and communication! She was so flexible with our schedule and was amazing with our pup!”
About: I've had large dogs since 1997. Currently I have 2 amazing dogs. A 3 legged great burnese, and a 1.2yr old burnese Mt. Dog. They are sweet and wonderful dogs with great manners and are super dog friendly. I also have 2 cats. Rick and Morty. They are a pair. Also very sweet and affectionate once they know you. They are indoor/outdoor 24/7 but avoid dogs. The love of my furry friends reflects who I am. I have 5 acres. This allows my dogs to mostly roam free as they stay close to home. It gives other dogs the opportunity to have a place to run around and play with other good dogs. There are also multiple leads amongst the property, as well as a gated and covered outside area if your pet isn't used to either of those situations. I spend almost all of my days working from home. So other than the occasional errand, I'm home. Otherwise, I exist for you and yours. My pets have water and food at all times. It's under a covered area so they are able to stay in the shade if they like. Otherwise my dogs are free to roam as they generally stay on the property. My property is not fenced. However with this undertaking dogs can be placed in the covered area when needed. They can be leaded if that's what you want. As well they are welcome in the house at any time. Your pets are free to relax anywhere they like. My dogs are very sweet and friendly. My 3 legged dog is not one to get to excited as he only has 3 legs. For the right dogs, my property is a paradise.
About: Hi, I’m Virgo (formerly Jeremy)! I’ve been dog sitting my friends’ dogs for about 10yrs, and working for a dog trainer for about 2yrs. (My parents tell me I’ve loved dogs my whole life, but I can only partly confirm.) A few things I like about dog sitting is discovering their personalities and learning how to interprete and anticipate their needs. I’m not intimidated by high-energy/high-intelligence dogs either! I like the challenge of keeping up with them. It also tricks me into staying active and feels less ridiculous than Zumba. 🤷🏽♂️ If there’s anything else you wanna know just ask? Uhh, this thing says I’ve gotta write 50 more words to move on so I’m just gonna keep typing stuff until the limit runs out I guess? I’m a substitute teacher, so my schedule is highly flexible! I try not to schedule subbing jobs during engagements, but they overlap seamlessly when it does happen. I live alone with a fully enclosed backyard and space for a crate if needed! I prefer to sit in the pet’s home though because I like to keep your pet’s routine and environment familiar to make them most comfortable!
About: I genuinely just love animals so much, which is why I decided to join rover! I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life and volunteered many hours at my local humane society. I am very responsible and attentive, I will keep your animals safe and happy! I have a dog of my own who is a social kween when it comes to dogs, kids, and pretty much every person she ever meets! My dogs name is tuna, she is a sweet pug. Tuna and I spend most of our days outside adventuring, so hopefully we can meet some new friends! I have some animal medical knowledge under my belt as well, my close friend is a veterinarian. I’m hoping to have a career that involves animals so this is a great start for me! I also love cats! :)
“I was visiting from out of town and needed someone to keep my puppies while I attended a private dinner. Mark was very communicative and flexible with me and I appreciated his time set aside for my babies. His yard was safe and well maintained. I highly recommend Mark!”
About: With over 9 years of experience, I’ve worked with all kinds of pets—from puppies and older dogs to cats, rodents, and even birds. I’m skilled in administering medications and providing personalized care, no matter the breed or age. Growing up with a variety of animals, I’ve developed a deep understanding of their needs. My patience, knowledge, and love for all animals set me apart, ensuring your pets are not only cared for but truly comforted. Pet care is my top priority, and I’m available almost full-time to meet your needs. I’m only busy two days a week, so the rest of my time is dedicated to providing focused, attentive care for your pets. With a flexible schedule, I’m ready to ensure your pets are well-cared for whenever you need! Most of my services are provided in my clients’ homes, where pets are comfortable in their own space. I offer drop-ins and dog walks, ensuring pets get the attention and exercise they need. While I don’t have a yard, I live in a pet-friendly community with great walking spots, and I’ll take dogs out every 1-2 hours for bathroom breaks and exercise. For boarding, I’d follow the same routine, offering regular walks and playtime. If clients have a fenced yard, I make full use of that space for outdoor activities and fun.
“Janice is a lifesaver!!! We were on our way to the redwood national park and realized that dogs are not allowed on most trails. So we had to find a sitter super last minute and she helped us out! Our dog has separation anxiety and this was the first time he didn’t miss us at all! He had so much fun playing with her dog and the other little dog she was caring for. She is very accommodating and super responsive. She also would send us pictures of our dog throughout the day! I would definitely hire her again and totally recommend her to everyone! She is an angel!”
About: Since I was old enough to pull myself up by the hindquarters of the family dog, I have shared a special connection with animals. Well versed in the needs of our furry friends, no pet is too much for my care. Experienced in special need care for animals - including but not limited to insulin administration. I also have formal training as an assistant vet tech and have volunteered at the ASPCA for years. Since I am currently self-employed with reliable transportation, my schedule is extremely flexible. I have two dogs and two cats that I care for daily, but they are low maintenance and do not require much time. Boarding will be done on 5.5 acres in Freshwater, set back in the woods with plenty of land for your fur-baby to roam free. We have gated, open top areas as well as a temperature controlled garage set up if your pet needs isolation or time away from the other animals. When walking, during drop-in visits, or on overnight stays in your home, I will adhere to all requests and ensure your furbaby enjoys themselves in your absence!
“Lucy was awesome. She sent me pictures so I could see how echo was doing and kept an eye on him. I was a little disappointed that he wasn't happier to see me when I came to pick him up lol but I guess that's a good thing XD he seemed to have had a great time. She was very welcoming and her dog is super friendly. 10/10 I would highly recommend her and if I'm in need of a dog sitter again I will definitely be sending her a message.”

“Alex & Kelsey have been wonderful to work with over the past couple of months. They’ve taken my German Shepherd, Cadence, on weekly walks and have also cared for my cat, Mio, during weekend trips. They’ve always been easy to communicate with, flexible when my schedule changes, and dependable. Most importantly, I know my pets are safe, well cared for, and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. It’s a huge relief to have pet sitters I can trust and confidently call whenever I need help. I highly recommend them!”
“marcus went above and beyond to connect with our pepper. we had just landed and he was delighted to help us out with pepper .. they connected he gave her a treat and water and she came back happy and tired thank you”
About: I’ve taken care of my 2 dogs for 12 years. I grew up having 2 dogs and a cat to take care of at the same time, all different ages and breeds. I’m really into all animals and love just being able to be around them and meeting new ones. On my free time I volunteer at the Sequoia Park Zoo as well. I currently have a pretty open schedule. I definitely can accommodate and am open and flexible to working with your schedule as much as you need. I’ve been home alone a lot with my 2 dogs and had to raise them and a cat, so I talk and hang out quite a lot with pets when I’m around them. I really love petting animals as it gives me just as much enjoyment as it does them.

About: I have been trusted to take care of others’ pets for approximately nine years now. I absolutely adore animals and think they deserve the world, so your pet’s wants and needs are my number one priority! If my prices are not in your range, I am happy to negotiate something that is fair for us both. I am a full-time medical assistant who works 3 12 hour shifts each week. On my days off I have plenty of time to walk, bathe, feed, and play with your fur baby. I will go above and beyond to make sure your pets are comfortable while you’re away. I am willing to check in on your pets as many times as you feel necessary, or even stay with them throughout the day. I always say “treat others how you would want to be treated,” so I hold the same expectations to myself that I would have someone who was watching my pet.

With a free and flexible schedule, I am home and fully present with your dog throughout their stay. In September 2024, I said goodbye to my beloved 14-year-old dog, an experience that deepened my appreciation for the love and care our pets deserve at every stage of life. I understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and familiar environment, and I strive to make every pup feel at home. My property features a spacious 1/4-acre lot with a large fenced yard for playtime and exploration. Additionally, I’m just a short walk from a dog park near the hospital and beautiful nature trails, offering plenty of opportunities for outdoor adventures. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, cuddle time, or just relaxing in a peaceful setting, I’ll care for them as if they were my own.

Meals, medications, and walks will happen on a reliable schedule, and I’ll make sure your pup is cozy and comfortable at bedtime. For younger dogs, I enjoy working on basic commands to keep them engaged and mentally stimulated. For seniors, I focus on their comfort, with shorter walks and plenty of relaxation time.
About: I've been a dependable care provider for many dogs in the past few years and really love what I do! Dog boarding is one of my main services and your pooch will be very tended to between myself and my roommate! I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! 90% of the time while I am at work, my (also experienced dogsitter) boyfriend is home. With enough advanced notice I can be sure your dog is not left alone at all if needed, though if not otherwise specified depending on my schedule they may be alone up to 3 hours at a time. I am great at reading animal behavior and making sure your pet is comfortable. I also make sure to adhere to your guidelines carefully when caring for your pet. I'm experienced with animals who have separation anxiety and issues eating when in a new environment so you can rest assured they are as comfortable as possible!
About: Animals have always been a part of my life and family. I find a lot of joy in caring for them and appreciate the reciprocal relationship that develops with them over time. No matter what mood I’m in, my interactions with animals often leave me in a positive state of mind. I work full time, Mon-Fri from 8-4:30. Any time outside of this I am happy to work doing sitting or walking, and I’m open to staying overnight. I can be somewhat flexible with your needs. I am looking to supplement my income, but also just really enjoy having animals in my life and can’t have them in my own home. My landlord does not permit animals in the building, so I would have to come where your animals are. I can either walk a dog from your home, stop by for feedings , or house-sit as needed.
About: I am adventurous, active, and love to explore new places. I can’t wait to spend time with your dog walking around my area and exploring dog friendly activities around this area. We can stay home or go on an adventure to your liking. Snuggles and love are included at no extra charge. I can administer medications if needed and will follow any specific instructions to a tee. My dog is my baby and I would only want her to be treated as such. I have been very successful using Rover as a customer, so I know the quality of service you and your dog are expecting and I insist on delivering that to you. Walking, running, playing, fetching, snuggling, hugging, and giving praise for being a great dog is what I specialize in:)
“So great to meet you! I appreciate your showing up prepared and asking all these great questions. Really made me feel comfortable as a newcomer to the app. Terra’s picture made me laugh. Thanks again 💕 Terra & Kaylin”
About: I have experience working at a vet office, and worked dogsitting overnights and drop ins throughout my college career. I've had animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and even horses, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs, and have one of my own who is one of the loves of my life! I'm happy to drop in multiple times per day around my work schedule (I work from home 9am-5pm) and I have an hour lunch which I use to visit dogs (or really any other animals) on my lunchtime rounds. If your dog needs help learning to socialize, my dog may be the perfect match, he is very easygoing and always eager to make a new friend. We go to the dog park frequently and he is used to playing with small dogs as well as some bigger breeds. I have experience with animals large and small, and I have a horse so giant breeds are still a breeze. I'd love to meet you and your pets! I have an open schedule for drop in visits and walks, and am available most weekends. Whether you are looking for a daily dog walker or a vacation sitter, I can help. I believe each pet requires an individual approach so that they are comfortable and happy during our visits. I strive to figure out what the pet needs to feel comfortable early on during our meet and greets so that I can keep them healthy and happy while you’re gone.

“We took our fearful little guy, Charlie, to Mariah and Neil’s house as a get- to - know- you- while -Mom- and Dad- are present visit. This was a first venture for our doggie Charlie and us, not a traditional dog-sitting event. We really liked Mariah and Neil. We were impressed with their kindness and awareness in dealing with dogs in their home. We felt they were honest in describing Charlie’s expected behavior in first being boarded with them, and we loved that. We know our dog well enough to know that leaving him in a strange new house wouldn’t immediately (particularly for a fearful dog like Charlie) be all roses and chumminess. We did leave him for about 15 minutes alone with Mariah and Neil (“ fearful parents, not so much fearful dog!”) and Charlie reacted just as Neil and Mariah predicted. Their home feels warm and loving. They have two really adorable pups who are obviously loved and well-adjusted. We would recommend Neil and Mariah as carers and will definitely be trying to book them again soon!”
“I was very nervous to leave my Maltipoo with her because she’s never been with a dog sitter before and she’s very small and has separation anxiety too. But Laila was very good with her and made her feel at ease. I left my Lully with her for 5 hours and she did pretty well. She even played with Laila’s dog which she never plays with other dogs before. I will definitely take her to Laila again whenever I need a sitter.”
“For our second boarding service with Whitney, my dog Cooper was so happy to see her at drop off, wiggling and kissing her. There couldn’t be a better sign than that to know he was in great hands once again.”
“We’re so grateful to Mark for taking such wonderful care of Brownie over the New Year holiday. Even with the rainy days, everything was perfect — Brownie was an absolute angel, relaxed, happy, and clearly right at home. She loved just hanging out and enjoying the holidays with Mark and his family. Thank you, Mark, for treating her like one of your own and giving us total peace of mind. We truly appreciate the great care and would absolutely recommend you!”
“Halley was so nice & communicative throughout Micah's stay (~5 days). They spent plenty of time outside and even went to an event at the beach. When Micah came home he was tired & content. I definitely recommend Halley if you're looking for someone to care for your pet.”

“Took such amazing care of our little dog while we were on vacation in Hawaii. Took her for walks daily and sent us photo updates too! We felt comfortable knowing she was in good hands!!”
“Amanda was a total professional even though Banjo is neurotic. She handled him and sent pictures and confident, positive messages. I would utilize her as a sitter again in a heartbeat.”
“My dogs were comfortable with Jessie and I appreciated her flexibly about drop off and pick up times. Her photos and welfare updates were great especially since this was my first time leaving my girls overnight for two nights. I would want Jessie’s help again next time I plan more exploration of the great outdoors in the Humboldt county area.”
“Stari was an awesome sitter for our special needs pooch. She sent us regular updates and even shared photos of Chloe enjoying walks on the beach. Very sweet and professional. Highly recommended.”

“Sonja provided awesome care for Daisy while we were gone for 10 days! She made sure that we all felt comfortable when dropping her off, and she provided plenty of updates while we were away. It’s clear that Daisy was well cared for and loved while we were gone. We would definitely book with her again. Thank you!”
