“Ranger always has an amazing stay with Anusha and family. This visit, Ranger had some digestive upset and Anusha took great care making sure his needs were met. She switched him to a bland chicken/rice diet (that she cooked for him!) and kept a close eye to make sure he bounced back quickly. As always, she was in touch everyday with photo and video updates. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!”
“I am so glad we chose to board our dog with Shannon! She was very responsive and sent us daily photos of our pup with updates throughout her stay. My dog was very comfortable and felt right at home. She was so happy and attached to Shannon when I picked her up. We will definitely be reaching back out for future dog sitting needs!”
“Boarded Mika again with Marina & Alec for 5 nights - Mika didn’t even look back when we dropped her off this time because she was so excited! She loves staying with Marina, Alec, & their pups, and we love it too knowing she’s in great hands. Lots of photo and video updates, and such a sweet family. Thank you again!”
“Nancy and the family were fantastic! She sent a lot of pictures and take good care of my Max! She was very thoughtful and flexible with pick up time. I will definitely use her again.”
“This was the first time I had ever brought my two pups to someone outside of our family so I was a little nervous! Yajaira was very sweet and calm and helped to alleviate my worries. Our Pomeranian, Duckie, is super easy going so I wasn't too worried about her but our Chihuahua, Fig, can require a little more understanding at times. When I picked them up they were happy and calm and Fig even seemed like she wanted to follow Yajaira back into the house :) We will definitely be seeing Yajaira again!”
“Michelle & Michael are awesome! They are both super nice, attentive, communicative, and took amazing care of our pup. We got regular updates on his activities throughout the day (which our family loved), and they kept him active and well loved his entire stay. Thank you both for looking after Doughy so well and we’ll definitely look them up the next time we need a sitter.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of Trixie during our recent travels. You two are the best! It's hard for us to leave Trixie, but we are always comfortable leaving her with you. And I think she settles in with you quite well! Best, Judith & Mike”
“Casper had a wonderful time during the stay! Jennifer sent photos and kept us updated. It's comforting to know that our fur baby is being taken good care of. Highly recommended”
“I couldn't be there for the hand-off and pick-up of my dog, but Coleman worked with our friend to make sure Indy made it to and from his care easily. We got daily pictures, he put up with my frequent texts asking about Indy, and Indy got some good exercise and I could tell was the recipient of lots of attention!”
“Angelika did a great job watching my dog, Fawn! Throughout the process of watching her she sent me updated pictures of how Fawn was doing when staying at her place, and was flexible about the drop off/pick up time! I’d recommend Angelika to others who are looking for somewhere for their doggie to stay while they’re on a vacation or what not. :)”
“Jesse was great with Buddy, very kind and easygoing, so I knew he’d be in good hands. I really looked forward to the pictures and video Jesse sent. Buddy was very happy and healthy (and really clean and soft!) when I picked him up - he’d love to stay again!”
“Hi, I can tell when my dog was not stressed upon return from a boarding experience and our dog, was happy when no the caring hands of Steve and co. I got regular updates and My dog went on long walks and hikes. He had the company of other dogs and behaved in Steve’s presence- him being a trainer himself. Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”
“Joshua did a wonderful job taking care of my mini Goldendoodle for nearly 5 days! It was the first time I had left my puppy with someone, and Joshua was very patient and gave Raja such attentive care! We appreciated the regular updates throughout the stay. I highly recommend Joshua and look forward to booking future stays for Raja!”
“We can always trust Mita and her family to take good care of Bailey while are gone. Bailey and Simba get along well. We get photos and videos and updates throughout her stay. We feel very lucky to have found Mita on Rover!”
“We arrived for a trip to Santa Cruz and found out our Roz was not allowed at the hotel due to her size. We started searching local pet hospitals, dog walkers, boarding facilities and the only place that could take her was all the way back in Santa Clara. As a last resort we checked Rover and Meghan came through for us. In the end Roz probably had as much fun as we did with her new friends during our weekend in Santa Cruz. Thanks Meghan!”
“Highly recommend! Qi was fantastic with my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so much better while I was away. They clearly love animals and took great care of everything. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Joyce and family was very caring and Cinnamon was taken care of very well I got regular updates and prompt responses They played with her, took her out for walks. Cinnamon had a relaxing time. They only take one dog at a time which makes it very comfortable for the dog and the owner as well Definitely recommend using Joyce for boarding in future.”
“Kimberley was amazing with our puppy! She is great with communication and would text us updates and photos every day. When she noticed our pup wasn’t eating his food, she asked if she could mix in other food to increase his appetite. And it worked! Thank you so much Kimberly!”

“I highly recommend Kendra, as she was very communicative, kind, and reliable. Our cat, Jinx, fell in love with her from the first moment, and he was in good hands for the entire ten days we were away. We truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us and would love to have her pet sit for us again in the future. Thank you, Kendra, for an amazing job!”
“Carmen is kind, courteous, and respectful and she communicates very well; best of all she works well with our two spoiled cats. She Spoils them! We hope to use her again soon. thanks!”
“Heather was amazing. She was able to care for our difficult older cat like a pro. Our cat required two medications twice a day, including an injection, and our cat doesn't do well with stranger but she did great with Heather. Heather let us know everytime when she completed the shot which really put our minds at ease. We ended up book her again for two more trips these coming months.”

“We couldn't be happier with the amazing job that Luna did! Luna checked in with us daily, and helped keep our cats calm. When we arrived home the litter boxes were clean and the cats were happy.

About: I grew up in a house with three dogs and four cats, so taking care of animals has always been a huge part of my life. I have been dog and cat sitting for others for over 8 years. I have a dog of my own, Layla, who is genuinely the light of my life, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pet is with someone who will love and care for them while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for walks, check-ins, playtime, and keeping your pet company throughout the day. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible! I have years of experience walking, watching, and caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet and their individual personality. Whether they love long walks and playtime or would rather curl up and get some extra attention, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I truly believe our pets are family, and I’ll always treat yours like they’re part of mine. You can expect lots of love, attention, and plenty of cute updates while they’re with me! 🐾 I’m currently working fully remote so I have plenty of time to care for your sweet animals! Early mornings, afternoons, and evenings are all open I believe that animals should only be treated with love, and gentle care, and that dogs are as good as the people caring for them! Making sure I take the time to make your pet comfortable means a lot to me, as I would want someone to do the same with my dog!
“Nora is a GIFT! About a year ago my now 14 year-old cat Riley abruptly lost a significant amount of weight and bloodwork showed some kind of significant liver event though nothing was evident in an XRAY or ultrasound. He was prescribed two ongoing medications to support his liver & reduce inflammation; a small pill that needs to absorb during a fast (no food for 2 hours before and 1 hour after) and a liquid medication that needs to be given with food. In addition to the with/without food medications complexity, successfully pilling a cat every day requires a deft hand—pretty straightforward for someone who’s good at it, increasingly difficult each day for anyone who isn’t. Add to the equation both Riley and his brother Ash are initially shy with strangers. All things considered to me the situation seemed like a complicated ask for a pet sitter, so over the past year I hadn’t gone away on any trips longer than 2-3 days. In the face of a terminal illness diagnosis in my direct family I came to terms with having to hope for the best using a pet sitter for an 8 day family vacation though I was very concerned about how Riley would be affected by the extended change in routine. Enter Nora; highly intelligent, highly *attuned* (to the pets & the people), instantly trustworthy, and very gracious, a rare combination of total professionalism & grounded compassion. Though Nora was only here for about an hour each day her presence *visibly improved* Riley’s health. I didn’t know it was possible to come home from being away for 8 days to find Riley noticeably fluffier and more energetic than when I left, but that’s the magic that unfolded under Nora’s care. She also sent me pictures of Riley and Ash every day and let me know how they were each doing, sharing her sophisticated curiosity & creativity getting Riley to eat more and Ash to gradually come out of his shyness with clear warmth towards both of them. It’s extremely clear Nora *truly cares* and is keenly observant and exceptionally competent, a combination that made it possible for me to relax so much more on my trip. I’m very grateful to have found her. Thank YOU so much Nora. TBC 💗🐈🐈⬛🧘♀️”
“Georgina did an amazing job taking care of my cats. She was reliable, followed instructions carefully, and spent quality time with them each day. She was especially patient with my shy cat, which meant a lot to me. I would definitely book with her again!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10, and over the years I’ve learned that every kitty has their own unique personality and needs. Some love constant playtime, others just want quiet companionship, and I’m comfortable adjusting to whatever makes them happiest. Whether it’s keeping up with feeding routines, refreshing water, giving meds, or just making sure they get plenty of love and attention, I’ll treat your cat like they’re my own. I know how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, and I’ll make sure you feel at ease too with updates and photos.
About: I grew up taking care of the family cats since I was 8. I've also helped neighbors and friends watching their cats, while they went away on vacation. I have stayed in clients homes watching cats and can also just do drop ins to make sure your furry friend gets attention, food, ECT. I'm a very flexible person so ask away if there are any specifications for medicine or anything special about your pet I'd be happy to accommodate!

“Amazing property, great communication, and took amazing care of our pupper. Sent a ton of photos and videos which set our minds at ease (we've had some....rough experiences) in the past. Only downside was our dog didn't want to leave, I think she wanted Marina and Alec to be her new parents”
“Bianca was so great with Olive! Her communication and care for her was fantastic. She understood olives quirks and put our tips and commands to work. I had a last minute meeting come up and she extended the sit without issue. So happy to have found and met Bianca!”
“I am over the moon about Daisy's full-day stay with Shannon and her family! I knew that Daisy had a great day because she fell fast asleep on the way home, and while she was happy to see me at pick-up, I could also tell she really liked her hosts. She went back and forth greeting me and going back to Shannon or her husband to get her head scratched; there was big tail wagging going on there! Shannon is certainly knowledgeable and experienced in caring for dogs, responsible, kept my pup safe, and supported Daisy's quirks and needs. She and her family followed my requests and instructions perfectly. Shannon sent pictures, which my husband and I so appreciated, and was responsive and clear in all her communications. She was flexible when I requested a time change for drop off and was fine when I wanted to come a bit earlier than scheduled for pick up. Daisy will be very excited, and I will be very happy & confident leaving her again with Shannon ~ I highly recommend her to care for your pet! You get her and her wonderful family!”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“Shahnaz (and her adorable dog Lewis) were so so great! They have a beautiful backyard and took awesome care of Ziggy, lots of play time. Shahnaz also took beautiful pics of Ziggy which was so sweet. Would definitely leave Ziggy with her again! :)”
“Gene did a great job in watching my dog Sam. He sent me photos and updates of Sam enjoying his walk and stay. Gene is kind and made me feel comfortable that Sam is safe and well cared for. I will definitely book his services again.”
“Nancy and her family were simply amazing with Toby! She sent pictures regularly and I could see from Toby’s smile how much fun he was having. I felt very comfortable leaving Toby in her care and highly recommend her. Thank you so much Nancy.”
“Emma is the best! She took great care of Wally - he had so much fun being outdoors, going on hikes and staying active with his new buddy! He came back very happy and clearly had a wonderful day. He was sad to say goodbye at the end of the day.”

Each pet gets personalized attention, playtime, and snuggles tailored to their vibe. Think of it as a furry sleepover with lots of TLC!

“Skye , is a lovely professional dog walker. My dog Scooby warmed up to her right away. After just a few days of service Scooby is now very excited to see her knowing a good walk is on the way. He can tell she’s an animal person. Skye is easy to communicate with, friendly and very professional. Can’t say enough of what a find skye is on rover. Happy new customer, highly recommend!”

About: I’m a UC Santa Cruz Legal Studies graduate and former student athlete, originally from San Diego, who recently moved to LA. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I’ve cared for dogs throughout college and have experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels, including through Unleashed by Petco, friends, family, and my own dog. I have a safe, comfortable home with a great patio, and would love to meet your dog and give them lots of love! My schedule is flexible and opened throughout the week here in Santa Cruz and I’m able to consistently fit in pet care. I have open availability on weekdays, weekends, and for overnights. I have enough flexibility to provide walks, drop-ins, and overnight care assuring all dogs I take care of get all the care they require and more. I have a safe, pet-friendly home with a large front yard and grassy patio that is fully fenced in. All dogs have plenty of safe space to relax and play. My home is a non-smoking environment, and I keep it clean and safe for all pets. I also have a dog of my own, so I’m used to daily care, structure, and making sure pets are comfortable and supervised at all times. I do pet care partly because I miss my own dog when I’m away, and I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and giving them attention. It feels natural to me, and I treat every dog I watch with the same care and attention I would want for my own.

About: I've had dogs my whole life, and I truly believe that they are a part of the family. I grew up hiking, training, and playing with my own dogs, as well as pet-sitting for my friends and family in high school. My two childhood dogs were both big and high-energy, so I have experience with dealing with intense personalities-from hyper puppies to senior dogs with health issues. I am also used to walking and taking care of two dogs at once, so if you have more than one pet, I am prepared. Most of all, I love seeing dogs happy, whether that be through taking them on walks or giving them love and attention. I am a UCSB student, but I am home for the summer (until I go back to school in mid-September), so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur-babies! I am available anytime of day, all days of the week. I am extremely responsible and detail-oriented, and I will do whatever I can to make sure your pets are safe and happy. I will send frequent updates and pictures as I understand the anxiousness that can come from being separated from your pet. I also have experience with taking care of dogs that need to take frequent medication or have other ailments, as my first dog (an Akita mix) was seizure prone and arthritic but, with much love and care, lived to be 16. She recently passed, so I am eager to love your dogs as if they were my own.
About: I take my dogs for runs, and I travel with her some times! I love watching after dogs and being physical! Exercise is very important! Currently I live with family and they help take care of our animals as well and take my dog and cat for walks, we live in nature so they sun bathe and frolic . I can offer going to peoples houses and that means making sure they're well fed and entertained and just really taking care of them anyway they need. I've also had an animal that had surgery so I'm familiar with giving shots and pills as well!
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, and other animals all my life! I rescue animals when I can, have fostered, bottle fed, treated injuries, given injections and medications to many animals. Animals are my comfort zone- just being around them is my joy! I can do short walks, herding dog games, feed, or provide overnight care. I especially love herding and other working breed dogs, and typically get along with even difficult animals (feral cats for example!) I would love to meet you and your pets! I am a recently retired high school teacher sill working part time at UCSC, so am available most days to care for your pets. I have 2 dogs and 2 kitties at home, bit can easily help out pet parents who need extra walks, play time, or vacation care! My pets are my family (fur babies!) i will care for your pets like my own! I can care for your pets in your home- the least stressful for them! Or take them to a park, hikes, or a leisurely walk. In your home I will make sure to keep everything tidy, and treat your pets as my family- lots of snuggles and playtime!
“Rachel is a great walker. She has been walking our 2 10 month old GSC pups for about 6 months every day now and has been aiding in training during walks. We definitely reccomend Rachel for her above and beyond efforts, dependability, and character! Keep up the great work and thank you for everything your doing!”
About: I have loved animals my entire life. Throughout college and high school, I worked as a dog walker for Wag and a kennel attendant at the local vet. I currently work on boats and do this in the off-season or when things are slow. I love spending time with animals and will treat your baby like one of my own, with lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. If you have more questions please reach out :) I work on boats and my schedule varies. I typically update my calendar to reflect that. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :) I am more than happy to watch your pets in your home. I rent so I need to get approval from my landlords before taking requests in my own home
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I believe every animal has unique traits that deserve to be seen! I am very flexible with each pets needs and their owner’s expectations. I would love to meet your best friends! I’m currently in school at UCSC, but my course load and time management ensures I have ample time to spend with your fur babies! I am very open to meeting any needs your pet has. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes too! If there are any behavioral issues I can also work with those as long as there are no safety concerns! I myself have a dog with behavior issues and I am very well versed.
“Sam was great to work with! Super flexible for both the meet and greet and walk. She gave us a detailed rover card with photos, and was clearly working on our dog listening to her on the walk. Plus, she brought him treats from the Seattle barkery! :) will book again for sure.”
About: I have experience with pet sitting for friends and neighbors over the past year along with having had all different breeds of dogs growing up and enjoy their company. I love to go for walks, hikes, the beach and would love to take your dog with me. I've had to give senior dogs medication and look after them. I know how hard it is to trust someone to watch your fur baby when your away and I'm that person and I will treat them like royalty. I am home everyday at 12:00. My husband works from home so one of us is always home with your dog. I am ready when I get home to take your dog with me on a walk or hike. Your dog will have access to a dog run area all day long and a large backyard when we are home. I have a house with a large fenced in yard and your dog will have complete access to outside at all times. At this time I don't have a dog of my own, so there will be no conflict between dogs. I want your dog to feel at home as much possible.
“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”
About: As a lifelong dog parent, I love being a leader, cuddle puddle, walker, ball thrower, and runner for dogs of all kinds (100% adorable, every single one!) Whether your fuzziest family members prefer long walks on the beach or romps in the mountains, I love taking the furry friends out & about. Daycare, boarding, walking, medication management & special needs are all part of the arc of care, and am confident in showing your dear dogs the same care that my dogs get! I’m currently working part-time, and have a flexible enough schedule to accommodate weekday and weekend care as needed. I’m an early riser & love starting my day outdoors with a nice long walk. I have a fenced in yard & two friendly dogs to keep your pup company, and can accommodate crates for training if you prefer. We’re less than a miles from the beach and go for walks every couple hours, with plenty of play time & meals, as needed.
About: Ive been a dog owner for +15 years and have been working with family in a private doggy day care business, but looking to spread out and have access to more people in need of pet care. Let your dog be the judge of me because dogs love me as much as I love them. Im a pretty flexible person, so if there are any special needs or requests I should be able to do whatever is necessary for your dog. I'm also a very clean person, so you can expect to receive your home back in a better condition than when I arrived. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend! Right now I'm working part time for events so my schedule is never fully predictable. My upcoming schedule is very open! Feel free to contact me with a date and time you need a sitter. I cannot host at this time, so I prefer to pet sit at the clients place. I'm a very tidy person and make sure to leave a place cleaner than when I arrived.
About: I grew up in a house with three dogs and four cats, so taking care of animals has always been a huge part of my life. I have been dog and cat sitting for others for over 8 years. I have a dog of my own, Layla, who is genuinely the light of my life, so I completely understand how important it is to know your pet is with someone who will love and care for them while you’re away. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time for walks, check-ins, playtime, and keeping your pet company throughout the day. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible! I have years of experience walking, watching, and caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet and their individual personality. Whether they love long walks and playtime or would rather curl up and get some extra attention, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I truly believe our pets are family, and I’ll always treat yours like they’re part of mine. You can expect lots of love, attention, and plenty of cute updates while they’re with me! 🐾 I’m currently working fully remote so I have plenty of time to care for your sweet animals! Early mornings, afternoons, and evenings are all open I believe that animals should only be treated with love, and gentle care, and that dogs are as good as the people caring for them! Making sure I take the time to make your pet comfortable means a lot to me, as I would want someone to do the same with my dog!

“Ranger always has an amazing stay with Anusha and family. This visit, Ranger had some digestive upset and Anusha took great care making sure his needs were met. She switched him to a bland chicken/rice diet (that she cooked for him!) and kept a close eye to make sure he bounced back quickly. As always, she was in touch everyday with photo and video updates. Thank you for taking such great care of our boy!”
“I am so glad we chose to board our dog with Shannon! She was very responsive and sent us daily photos of our pup with updates throughout her stay. My dog was very comfortable and felt right at home. She was so happy and attached to Shannon when I picked her up. We will definitely be reaching back out for future dog sitting needs!”
“Boarded Mika again with Marina & Alec for 5 nights - Mika didn’t even look back when we dropped her off this time because she was so excited! She loves staying with Marina, Alec, & their pups, and we love it too knowing she’s in great hands. Lots of photo and video updates, and such a sweet family. Thank you again!”
“This was the first time I had ever brought my two pups to someone outside of our family so I was a little nervous! Yajaira was very sweet and calm and helped to alleviate my worries. Our Pomeranian, Duckie, is super easy going so I wasn't too worried about her but our Chihuahua, Fig, can require a little more understanding at times. When I picked them up they were happy and calm and Fig even seemed like she wanted to follow Yajaira back into the house :) We will definitely be seeing Yajaira again!”
“Michelle & Michael are awesome! They are both super nice, attentive, communicative, and took amazing care of our pup. We got regular updates on his activities throughout the day (which our family loved), and they kept him active and well loved his entire stay. Thank you both for looking after Doughy so well and we’ll definitely look them up the next time we need a sitter.”
“I couldn't be there for the hand-off and pick-up of my dog, but Coleman worked with our friend to make sure Indy made it to and from his care easily. We got daily pictures, he put up with my frequent texts asking about Indy, and Indy got some good exercise and I could tell was the recipient of lots of attention!”
“Angelika did a great job watching my dog, Fawn! Throughout the process of watching her she sent me updated pictures of how Fawn was doing when staying at her place, and was flexible about the drop off/pick up time! I’d recommend Angelika to others who are looking for somewhere for their doggie to stay while they’re on a vacation or what not. :)”
“Jesse was great with Buddy, very kind and easygoing, so I knew he’d be in good hands. I really looked forward to the pictures and video Jesse sent. Buddy was very happy and healthy (and really clean and soft!) when I picked him up - he’d love to stay again!”
“Hi, I can tell when my dog was not stressed upon return from a boarding experience and our dog, was happy when no the caring hands of Steve and co. I got regular updates and My dog went on long walks and hikes. He had the company of other dogs and behaved in Steve’s presence- him being a trainer himself. Both the parties felt that it was a good fit - before boarding. Will not hesitate to recommend Steve with a glowing 5-stars!”
“We can always trust Mita and her family to take good care of Bailey while are gone. Bailey and Simba get along well. We get photos and videos and updates throughout her stay. We feel very lucky to have found Mita on Rover!”
“We arrived for a trip to Santa Cruz and found out our Roz was not allowed at the hotel due to her size. We started searching local pet hospitals, dog walkers, boarding facilities and the only place that could take her was all the way back in Santa Clara. As a last resort we checked Rover and Meghan came through for us. In the end Roz probably had as much fun as we did with her new friends during our weekend in Santa Cruz. Thanks Meghan!”
“Highly recommend! Qi was fantastic with my dogs. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel so much better while I was away. They clearly love animals and took great care of everything. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Juliana was amazing. My dog, Pumpkin, is a senior pup who can be very sad when I leave her at boarding. She walked right into Juliana's and gelt comfortable - this was a positive sign. Juliana sent updates and pictures while we were gone. There a cold snap during Pumpkin's time, and Juliana had her in a sweater, let her sit curled up in a blanket on the couch, and I could see how relaxed Pumpkin was. The next time I leave town, I know who I will be entrusting to cate for Pumpkin. Thank you again Juliana!”
“Chendi was great with my dog! She sent pics and videos daily, as well as an update summary at the end of each day. I highly recommend her and wouldn't hesitate to book again!”
“Hannah was amazing. She was able to accommodate us last minute for a holiday weekend. She sent us updates along with videos of Archer doing all his favorite activities. We know he was in great hands and will definitely call her for any future needs”
About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
