“We give Lauren 5 STARS she's so friendly and sends us updates and photos of are puppies well are 1 lil guy is almost 17 years old so can't see to good but still has fun none the less!! Thanks again Lauren G 🐶🐶”
“Cabby had a great time with Heather and Calob for 4 days. They sent daily updates with pictures. It was nice to know she was getting good care which allowed us to enjoy our vacation!”
“Ana was absolutely amazing with my Goldendoodle! She took such great care of him, kept me updated, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well loved in her care. I would definitely trust Ana to watch him again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter. Thank you so much, Ana!! :)”
“Very happy with Jennifer looking after our dog. She took great photos of him and sent us updates of his stay. We just picked him up and he's one happy and very tired dog! We will definitely have her look after him again. Highly recommend!”
“Lexi and her family treated our dog as their own, and they truly understand what it means to care for a dog. There was never a worry that Moose wouldn’t get adequate stimulation with the many walks and backyard time spent with this family. The most noticeable difference between Lexi and other sitters was Moose’s energy when we picked him up. He wasn’t full of anxious energy and he seemed like our normal pup. This gives us the peace of mind and then some for any future stays he has with this household.”
“Melissa was so thoughtful and kind to both Daisy and I. It was our first time leaving Daisy since we adopted her. Melissa took the time to let us visit her home for a meet-and -greet and sniffs of her property a few days before Daisy’s stay. Melissa was so thoughtful and attentive to Daisy’s needs. I have no doubt that Daisy is in good hands with Melissa .”
“This was the second time my dog Ollie was boarded at Jamies house. It was for two weeks. I received pictures of Ollie and updates on his well being. Jamie has been prompt in responding to my communications. Ollie was obviously happy, well cared for and took his time leaving their house when I picked him up . I will be using Jamie’s service in the future.”
“Katy provided a true at home experience and sent daily pictures of our Schnauzer cuddled up next to her lovely daughter. When we picked her up, Stella ran to members of Katie’s family as well as us. She was clearly comfortable with them. My husband was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home with us! We booked late on a holiday weekend and ended up rescheduling our pick up time to a couple hours later. Katie was totally accommodating. We had a perfect boarding experience! Thanks Katie and also to your lovely family. We hope to see you again soon!”
“I would absolutely recommend Liz to take care of your pup. Hugo had a great time and it’s a great space. The pictures she sent were all of our doggie smiling and sleeping and totally comfortable. We will be using Liz for daycare as well as future pet sitting.”
“We had a great experience with Angela and her kind son! They took wonderful care of Bo for two days and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Bo came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We've already booked for them to watch Bo again and I recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet sitters.”
About: I’m a Santa Rosa/Sonoma County local and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats of all personalities. We have an easygoing outdoor cat of our own who we absolutely adore, so I understand that cats like their routines, their space, and affection on their own terms! 🐱❤️ I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, outdoor/indoor routines, and of course plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your cat while you’re away, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience and care I give my own. I’m fortunate to have a flexible full-time job and work from home a few days a week, with the ability to work remotely longer when needed. This gives me plenty of flexibility to pop in and check on your pets throughout the day. I’m also free most weekends and never work past 5 PM Monday–Friday, so I can easily make time for walks, feedings, check-ins, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat every pet as if they were my own, whether I’m caring for them in their home or welcoming them into mine. I have a fenced yard and a pet-friendly home where their comfort and safety come first. To me, animals are family and deserve to be treated with love, patience, attention, and plenty of affection.
About: I have been a nurse for 22 years. I am in school again and at home with my 17 lb dog all the time. I have cared for dogs my whole life and taken care of my friends dogs while they travel for as along as I can remember. I have a large fenced in back yard and a dog door. I am easily able to handle medication and medications schedules. My dog loves to play with other dogs and I am hoping to find regulars who would like frequent care so she can have her friends over! I am in school full time via an online program so I am home a tremendous amount. There will be a few days a week that I go into a clinic for 8 hours but most days and nights I am home. We go on nightly walks as well. There is a large fenced yard and in general the back door is open and my dog goes in and out as she wishes! I am very flexible!
“Jill has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to run and have fun. Great for socializing your dog. My fearful rescue dog was eight and home and relaxed and happy when I picked her up :)”
“Stacie was so communicative, friendly, and understanding. She sent me pictures daily of my girl, and was so kind in all of her messages. Her family is incredibly loving. I can’t wait for her to watch my girl again in the future because I know that she’s in capable and safe hands!”
“Delilah had a nice little vacation with Lindsey and Hawk while I was away. I always know she is in great, capable hands with Lindsey. I look forward to the pics and check-ins from her every day. Delilah is always so tuckered out from her active and adventurous stay with Lindsey!”

About: I’m the lady who crosses the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I love all dogs, but big dogs have my heart. I confess, I’m also the lady that will remember your dog’s name, age and origins, but perhaps not always your name. Although I have the confidence and experience to befriend your big dogs, that shouldn’t suggest that I don’t love our smaller friends, as well. Big and small, I love them all❣️ I’ve been responsible for animals most of my life. Chiefly, I’ve had the privilege to care and own big dogs. Growing up, we had a Sheppard-Mastiff mix, and that’s when my love for big dogs began. In our house, we had a macaw, cockatoo, kākāriki, ring-necked parakeet, and a cockatiel, tropical/ saltwater fish, dogs, and cats. I continue to be a proud breed ambassador and have owned 4 Rottweilers over the years. I’ve been gainfully employed as a civil servant for 25 years. After my last Rottweiler passed away, I wanted to care for a dog again, but haven’t adopted quite yet. I enjoy hiking, outdoor activities, walking and traveling, and of course dogs! I’ve had the privilege to care for our misunderstood and sometimes reactive dog friends, as well. All dogs deserve love. I helped welp Belgian Malinois puppies and ensure they found loving, deserving homes. I joke that, “If the choice was between world peace or puppies, I would choose puppies.” I can’t wait to meet your doggie! Since I’m a civil servant, my schedule is consistent. I have free nights and 3-day weekends. I enjoy a lot of free time that I would like to fulfill with dogs. I have a secured, fenced yard. I can also kennel your pets as well. My responsibility to you is ensuring your family member is secure in my charge.
“Kyle was fantastic! From the moment we met him, he was professional, friendly, and put us at ease. He took wonderful care of our kitten while house sitting and sent regular photos and updates, which made it so easy to relax and enjoy our vacation.Knowing our kitten and home were in such good hands made our trip completely stress-free. Kyle was attentive, communicative, and clearly cared about making sure everything was going well while we were away.We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would absolutely book Kyle again. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional pet sitter!”
“Pamela took wonderful care of our two cats while we were away. She alerted us to the exact time she did her checkin and sent photos of their cute faces. She is lovely and reliable. We will definitely use her services again ☺️ Caylee”
“Laura has been a dependable buddy for our two cats while we are away. She is super friendly, easy to communicate with, and very reliable. We are very lucky to have her taking care of of our girls!”
“Berenice was incredible! I had to find a pet sitter on short notice and she was amazing. My cat decided to hide a lot of the time, she did everything possible to make her comfortable. Her pictures, care and attention made my vacation enjoyable. I definitely will be using Berenice in the future.”
About: I’m a Santa Rosa/Sonoma County local and lifelong animal lover with experience caring for cats of all personalities. We have an easygoing outdoor cat of our own who we absolutely adore, so I understand that cats like their routines, their space, and affection on their own terms! 🐱❤️ I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, outdoor/indoor routines, and of course plenty of love and attention. I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your cat while you’re away, and I’ll treat yours with the same patience and care I give my own.
“Gina took amazing care of our fur baby! She was super communicative, friendly, and took amazing pictures while we were away. Our shy kitty loved her immediately! Definitely will ask her to pet sit for us again. 💛”
“Amanda definitely has a way with animals; she can even win the heart of our younger cat who tends to be more shy. She is an awesome communicator and provides timely updates and lots of photos, which make us feel comfortable when we are away.”
About: Pawnda Care began primarily as a dog walking and pet sitting service but has since shifted its focus to cat sitting. I discovered immense joy in spending time with cats, particularly the shy ones that often struggle to connect with strangers. Once all the essential tasks are completed, we turn on the television and enjoy a cuddle session. Depending on the cat's needs, I might bring along my current craft project to relax and bond with the furry companion.
“Micki was wonderful to work with as a first Rover sitter for my new cat, Maurice. She was prompt in communication, knowledgeable, and had some great suggestions to make sure Maurice was comfortable during his times alone. We both look forward to having her back in the future!”
“This should really be at least 10 stars. Julie is a true professional. She clearly loves animals and orivided such loving care. Iline if the most difficult things anout my recent move to California was finding care for the cats when we travel. Pip especially needs extra TLC and must be medicated daily. Julie quickly got through the business of the day and spent some quality time each day with the “kids.” Couldn’t be happier!”
About: I’ve had experience caring for cats for many years and understand that every cat has their own personality, comfort level, and routine. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I’ve cared for both indoor and outdoor cats in the past. Whether your cat is playful, shy, independent, or needs extra attention, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while keeping you updated with messages and photos.

“Jen was great! We dropped Cooper off for the day and felt very comfortable leaving, knowing he was in great hands! Her two dogs were very sweet and were great companions for Cooper during his day there. When we picked Cooper up it was obvious he had a great day and was well taken care of. We would definitely bring Cooper back again when we are in the area.”
“My pug LOVES spending time at Lauren and Ben’s house playing with all the dogs or just lounging on the floor. When we arrive, he tugs hard on his leash to get inside. It’s wonderful to know that when he’s away from home, he’s safe and happy in their care.”
“Heather and Calob are so awesome! I’m so glad to have found them to watch our two pups. They are so flexible, responsive and easy to coordinate with. They were great about sending photos too. And our pups sure loved them. Looking forward many more stays in the future!”
“I didn’t expect to need someone to watch our dogs for the day but they ended up having a little vacation of their own! Thank you sooo much! They were both happy when we picked up and we would plan a trip this way just so they could have a fun day with David again. While we had our own little vacation both our dogs did as well.”
“Bernadette was wonderful with my rescue puppy Isabel!! It was her first time being left with someone, and I felt calm and confident knowing she was in Bernadette’s care. Bernadette clearly knows so much about animals and was very kind, understanding, and knowledgeable about Isabel’s communication and needs. I highly recommend Bernadette!!”

“We booked Sheila last minute and she was able to accommodate care for Gabby. We booked a tour with Safari West which was less than 20 minutes from her house. When we got to her home, she greeted us and Gabby appeared to like Sheila right away, so much so that we called her “Aunty Sheila”. It made me feel at ease knowing that Gabby would be cared for by a stranger who felt like family. While we were away, Sheila sent us a photo of Gabby playing with a chew toy. Sheila’s home had everything Gabby needed (crate, toys, and a big fence yard. We would definitely use her again!”

“Ellen was such a great sitter! I needed a Rover sitter last minute and she was able to help. She is very kind and communicative and I immediately felt comfortable leaving Grayson with her. She provided photo updates and reassured me he was fitting in well with her pups! I’ll definitely be a repeat customer! (Oh and she sent Grayson home with a stash of really good treats which he promptly reminded me of when we got home - thanks, Ellen!)”
“Melissa was incredible with our 5 month old puppy, Rocky! It was our first time leaving Rocky and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with Melissa. She is very communicative, understands dogs very well, and helped train our pup. I look forward to booking again with Melissa in the future!”
About: I am a huge animal lover and have had many pets all of my life. My dogs are not just pets but members of the family. I have had many dogs over the years ranging from cockapoo’s, terriers, Westies, a German Shepherd and yellow Labs. I have also had 5 cats. My current dog and cat are best friends! I care for many friends and neighbor dogs and have play dates on a daily basis. Dogs are always on the guest list for dinner parties or holiday gatherings and have gifts under the tree. If I had a bigger yard, I’d have a dozen. I would love to meet and spoil your dog while you were away. I will treat them like my own and we will have a great time together. After retiring from my long term job, I became a caregiver for family members. I enjoy walking so thought this would be a perfect fit for getting more exercise and fill my love of having multiple dogs. I have availability in between caring for people and would love to take your dog for a walk. I will care for your pets as my own in your home and a walk. If there is any special requests or instructions, I will happily follow.

“Reliable and great! I’m a returning client as I trust her with my dogs and feel relaxed leaving them knowing they’re getting adequate needs met including long walks :) Amber is wonderful!”
About: I’ve had pets in my life since childhood, growing up on a farm with dogs, cats, and horses. Caring for pets is second nature to me. Since moving to the U. S. 20 years ago, I’ve looked after friends and neighbors’ dogs, including diabetic and senior pups that need extra love and attention. I treat every dog like family, with patience, kindness, and genuine care. I’m a UCLA nursing student currently doing clinical hours only three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexible time throughout the day. That means I’m able to give your pet lots of attention, playtime, and long walks. Whether it’s daily check-ins or longer stays, I can easily fit pet care into my schedule and make sure your pup feels loved and cared for. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine so they stay comfortable and stress-free. In my home, I have a fenced yard and a beautiful neighborhood for walks. I also stick closely to their usual schedule. No matter the place, your pet gets consistent, loving care.
About: I’ve spent over ten years caring for dogs and cats of all ages from playful puppies and kittens to wise seniors. I work as a shepherd and look after sheep, goats and dogs, which has helped me stay calm, attentive and aware of behavior, safety,and fun. I’m trained in safe handling, bite prevention, and canine behavior and I rely on positive reinforcement to support pets. I take the responsibility of caring for your furry family seriously, making sure they feel safe, comfortable and loved while in my care. Animals are part of my everyday life. I make sure pets get attention, walks, playtime, and companionship on a regular schedule so they’re happy and healthy. I prioritize safety and comfort in every home. Pets are supervised, loved, and cared for with positive reinforcement so they feel secure and relaxed while you’re away.
“Ashley made us feel very comfortable leaving our 2 pups with her. Our meet n greet with her, her pup and her baby went well. She was very communicative and sent photos and videos during their stay. We will definitely look her up again as we all (pups included) we’re happy with Ashley. Thank you again Ashley!!”
About: Hi there! 🐾 I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud pet parent who has been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. As an adult, that’s given me a lot of experience with animals of all shapes, sizes, personalities, and quirks! ❤️ I’ve cared for dogs ranging from 10 lbs to 100+ lbs and have experience with puppies, senior pets, and dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I’m comfortable with behavioral challenges including anxiety, reactivity, and food aggression, and I have hands-on experience with puppy training and basic commands. Cats have also been a huge part of my life. I’ve lived in multi-cat households for most of my life and have experience with cats and kittens of all personalities. One of my most memorable experiences was when a stray cat came into my home and ended up giving birth to her kittens right on my lap! 🥹🐱 I’m also comfortable caring for chickens and have some experience with birds, rabbits, reptiles, and fish. I regularly pet sit for friends and family, and I decided to join Rover because caring for animals is genuinely something I love doing. I work full-time, so pet sitting is my fun little side job—and I couldn’t ask for a better one! 🐶🐱💕 I don’t have any breed restrictions and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, instructions, and individual needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I’ll treat them like my own, communicate with you, and send updates as often as you’d like. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry (or feathered, scaly, or fluffy!) family members! 🐾✨ I currently have morning and afternoon free time. If you have scheduling questions, please ask! I would love to work things out and care for your pet! I follow directions well, so if there are any specific needs I will do my best to meet them. I can communicate as much or as little as you need with app updates and pictures.

Prices are estimates per walk for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: Dogs & cats have been in my life since I was born! Growing up, I’ve taken care of so many dogs, cats, and even geckos. These lovely pets including my own, my neighbors, & my friends! I’m currently working Sunday and Monday mornings and in school part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays while focused on saving up money to further pay for my college education, so I have plenty of time available around those days to take care of your lovely pets! ♥️ My Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays are completely free and I’ll be happy to keep your furry friend company, on a walk, or check in on them while you are away. :) I have four (some very shy) cats and a dog at home, so while I am unable to bring cats into my own home, I will be able to stay full-time in your home with your fur babies and provide them with all the care they need, while they’re comfortably in their home-environment.
About: I grew up in a neighborhood my friends used to call “the farm”. We had 3 dogs, one neighbor had chickens, one neighbor had horses, and another neighbor had goats. Along with various dogs and cats at each house. Because I was the oldest kid in the neighborhood, I was the go-to person anytime a neighbor needed a house sitter or even just needed me to feed their pet dinner since they were out late. When I got older and started driving, I began dog sitting for our large group of friends, taking care of all sizes of dogs, cats, and the occasional reptile. Although I work part-time, I am generally available 7 days a week for house sitting. I am willing to accommodate crazy schedules and last minute plans if need be. I have a small home but a big yard, so while I can’t accommodate boarding, I have a large outdoor space and my own pup that is eager for play dates during the day. As for house sitting, I provide attentive, personalized care in my client’s home so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely. With my history in the animal health field, I am comfortable administering any medications if needed. As a person who values communication, I provide regular ‘pupdates’ and pictures so owners feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
“Kyle really helped us out this week! He was always on time and our dog really liked going on walks with him. When our dog got home he was just as happy as can be. Thank you Kyle”
“Sebastian did a fantastic job walking my dog! He was professional, reliable, and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I came home to a happy, relaxed pup, and I couldn’t be more pleased. I highly recommend Sebastian!”
“Julie was amazing with Bucky. I have had a hard time finding anyone who has the experience to walk such a big strong dog. I’m lucky to have found someone who is capable enough to take my place when I’m unable to fit walks with him myself. Thanks Julie for taking such good care of him!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Another excellent walk with Michael! He was right on time, and it genuinely makes my workday better knowing the dogs got to spend a full hour out on the trail with him. I’m very grateful to have someone reliable who I know is giving them such a great outing while I’m working. Highly recommend!”
“Berenice is a great person!! She takes very good care Mabel. She sends me photos while walking Mabel. I highly recommend Berenice to take care of your furry babies. We love her!! Thanku Berenice for taking care of Mabel while I’m working. She loves you !!”
“Amanda takes great care with our older, tripod Bella. Bells is always happy to see her even if she doesn't feel like walking that day. We appreciate that Amanda lets us know things that she notices so we can compare with actions we are also seeing with Bella.”
“Michelle was awesome. Communicated clearly with us so we knew when she was arriving. Our dogs loved her. Now they are tuckered out and napping after their great adventure with Michelle. Thanks for taking care of them. Would have given 10 stars if it was available!!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I love going on walks, playing, giving cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work as an on-call pharmacy technician, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m also enrolled in school with online classes, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. I’d love to spend that extra time caring for and keeping your pets company! I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I have one dog at home and we have a doggy door that gives him access to our back yard that is fenced and gated.
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with a flexible schedule and a deep love for exploring the outdoors. I raised my dog from a puppy and it was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life! I specialize in active walks and hikes for dogs who love to get out and explore- I like to work with a single dog at a time so I can really get to know them and develop strong communication with them. I know all the best dog-friendly spots in the area: Laguna de Santa Rosa, Riverfront Regional Park, Taylor Mountain, and the local bike trails. For older dogs, I'm happy to take it easy with gentle neighborhood strolls. I've also managed complicated medication routines for dogs in treatment, so I'm comfortable with pets who need extra care, need drop in visits, and I love cats too! I use positive reinforcement techniques and am comfortable with pets of most energy levels and temperaments. Whether your pup needs a trail adventure, your senior dog needs patient care, your cat needs some company, or you just need a reliable check-in, I'd love to help. My schedule is flexible, so I can accommodate last-minute requests, early mornings, or evenings—whatever works best for you and your pet. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust, my doggo was my world. I would love to be there for your pet! I work from home as a freelancer and can accommodate most requests on weekdays, sometimes I can also pick up work on weekends. I walk everyday, rain or shine and love to bring happy dogs on the trail! In My Home: I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own. I maintain a calm, safe environment and follow your established routines as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to playtime preferences. For dogs, I provide plenty of exercise through walks or hikes suited to their energy level, and I'm always attentive to their comfort and body language. I keep pets secure with leashed walks, and I'm vigilant about potential hazards both indoors and on trails. For pets on medication or special diets, I follow instructions carefully and keep detailed notes. I also provide regular updates with photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. Since I work from home, the pet is with me 24/7, with only short breaks if I need to go do an errand - in which case we use a crate. In Your Home: I respect your home as I would my own. I follow all your instructions for feeding, medication, routines, and house rules. I keep things tidy, secure doors and windows, and ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I'm happy to bring in mail, water plants, or adjust lighting to give your home a lived-in feel while you're away. Communication is key, so I provide regular updates and am always available if questions come up. My goal is to make the transition seamless for both you and your pet.
About: I have five years of experience providing dependable house and pet sitting for multiple families, including stays of up to three weeks at a time. I understand how important it is to know that both your pets and your home are in good hands while you’re away. I’ve cared for cats, dogs, and even a ferret! I provide loving, attentive care to every furry friend, while also taking care of household needs like watering plants, collecting mail, and keeping an eye on the home. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving their families peace of mind. After a career as an engineer and geologist with the State of California, I’m happily retired and enjoying a flexible schedule. When I’m not fan-girling over rocks or spending time at the bowling alley, I’m probably fan-girling over someone’s furry friend! Retirement gives me plenty of time to provide attentive pet care, and I can accommodate most schedules, including daytime visits, evenings, weekends, and overnight stays. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and comfortable in your absence. I’ll treat them with the same patience, kindness, and care I would want for my own pets.
About: I’ve had dogs most of my life but we’re I’m living now does not allow them so I need the connection with dogs.

I am available Monday through Friday wifh scattered hours between 7:30 AM until 6 PM At this point in time, I only have a cat. So I clean the litter out feed the cat give him lots of loving, but need more association with other animals. Unfortunately, our dog passed away, and we have chosen to get another one. I have taken care of other friends animals, and walk their animals.
About: I've had the privilege of being a dog mom for the last 13 years which lands me a ton of experience caring for dogs but I love caring for all animals! I'm currently freelancing part time and have the flexibility (especially during the day) to make house calls and go for daily walks. I'm also available weekends! When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their well-being and strive to provide a comfortable and nurturing environment. I ensure that their basic needs and give them tons of attention and affection, engaging in playtime and cuddles to keep them mentally and emotionally stimulated. Overall, my goal is to create a loving and reliable caregiving experience for pets.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was small. Was raised on a farm so have always had a heart for all four legged friends. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday routine. I’m home often throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I structure my day around the animals in my care—morning feedings and walks, daytime check-ins, enrichment activities, and evening wind-down time. Because I’m already used to caring for pets and managing a household, integrating your pet’s needs into my schedule is easy and enjoyable. Their comfort and routine always come first. When pets stay in my home, they get a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can play, relax, and get plenty of fresh air. I also take pets on regular walks and, if the owner is comfortable with it, we enjoy outings to local dog parks for extra exercise and socialization. Inside my home, pets are treated like family—lots of affection, playtime, and a calm, clean space to rest. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and any special instructions. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their normal routine and make sure they feel secure in their familiar space. I provide regular walks, feeding, potty breaks, clean water, playtime, and lots of attention. I also keep owners updated with messages, photos, and notes so they always know how their pets are doing.

“We give Lauren 5 STARS she's so friendly and sends us updates and photos of are puppies well are 1 lil guy is almost 17 years old so can't see to good but still has fun none the less!! Thanks again Lauren G 🐶🐶”
“Very happy with Jennifer looking after our dog. She took great photos of him and sent us updates of his stay. We just picked him up and he's one happy and very tired dog! We will definitely have her look after him again. Highly recommend!”
“Lexi and her family treated our dog as their own, and they truly understand what it means to care for a dog. There was never a worry that Moose wouldn’t get adequate stimulation with the many walks and backyard time spent with this family. The most noticeable difference between Lexi and other sitters was Moose’s energy when we picked him up. He wasn’t full of anxious energy and he seemed like our normal pup. This gives us the peace of mind and then some for any future stays he has with this household.”
“Melissa was so thoughtful and kind to both Daisy and I. It was our first time leaving Daisy since we adopted her. Melissa took the time to let us visit her home for a meet-and -greet and sniffs of her property a few days before Daisy’s stay. Melissa was so thoughtful and attentive to Daisy’s needs. I have no doubt that Daisy is in good hands with Melissa .”
“Katy provided a true at home experience and sent daily pictures of our Schnauzer cuddled up next to her lovely daughter. When we picked her up, Stella ran to members of Katie’s family as well as us. She was clearly comfortable with them. My husband was afraid she wouldn’t want to come home with us! We booked late on a holiday weekend and ended up rescheduling our pick up time to a couple hours later. Katie was totally accommodating. We had a perfect boarding experience! Thanks Katie and also to your lovely family. We hope to see you again soon!”
“I would absolutely recommend Liz to take care of your pup. Hugo had a great time and it’s a great space. The pictures she sent were all of our doggie smiling and sleeping and totally comfortable. We will be using Liz for daycare as well as future pet sitting.”
“We had a great experience with Angela and her kind son! They took wonderful care of Bo for two days and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Bo came home happy, healthy, and well cared for. We've already booked for them to watch Bo again and I recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and kind pet sitters.”
About: I have been a nurse for 22 years. I am in school again and at home with my 17 lb dog all the time. I have cared for dogs my whole life and taken care of my friends dogs while they travel for as along as I can remember. I have a large fenced in back yard and a dog door. I am easily able to handle medication and medications schedules. My dog loves to play with other dogs and I am hoping to find regulars who would like frequent care so she can have her friends over! I am in school full time via an online program so I am home a tremendous amount. There will be a few days a week that I go into a clinic for 8 hours but most days and nights I am home. We go on nightly walks as well. There is a large fenced yard and in general the back door is open and my dog goes in and out as she wishes! I am very flexible!
“Jill has a beautiful home and property for the dogs to run and have fun. Great for socializing your dog. My fearful rescue dog was eight and home and relaxed and happy when I picked her up :)”
“Stacie was so communicative, friendly, and understanding. She sent me pictures daily of my girl, and was so kind in all of her messages. Her family is incredibly loving. I can’t wait for her to watch my girl again in the future because I know that she’s in capable and safe hands!”
“Delilah had a nice little vacation with Lindsey and Hawk while I was away. I always know she is in great, capable hands with Lindsey. I look forward to the pics and check-ins from her every day. Delilah is always so tuckered out from her active and adventurous stay with Lindsey!”

“Our dogs have never been happier! They loved the massive fenced yard and all the playtime. I loved the photos of them romping that Dustin kindly sent often. Can’t wait to have them board again.”
“I had a fantastic experience with Sandy! From the moment she picked Lucy up, I felt completely confident that she was in great hands. Her communication was prompt and friendly, and the regular updates and photos really put my mind at ease. Lucy came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It's such a relief to find someone as trustworthy and attentive as Sandy. I’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future—thank you so much for taking such great care of Lucy!”
“Earl was great to work with! He is easy going and great with animals. He was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend this provider and we will surely be using him again in the future.”
“Sheila was incredibly kind and flexible. Her home was a place filled with a lot of warmth and love! She was always super prompt when replying to me and sent me many photos of my dog while she was staying there. I will 100% book with Sheila again. Thank you!!!”
