“I had something come up at the last minute and Jie couldn’t have been more accommodating. She and her family took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated (with photos) every step of the way. Highest grade.”
“Jay is a kind and wonderful dog boarder. Our cattledog, Arrow, was so well taken care of and was so relaxed during his stay with Jay. We got several timely updates with pictures and Arrow looked perfectly content in the new environment. I would highly recommend Jay and will be using his service again.”
“This is Mochi's first time ever boarding. We couldn't have picked a better sitter. Mochi loved being in her backyard watching the cats and birds nearby. She was happy and secure sleeping in the large open kennel. She had nice long walks with her boarding friend Ava. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Nina and Tony took excellent care of our 5 year old golden doodle, Yogi. They are so communicative, sent frequent updates. Yogi looked very well cared for and happy when we picked him up. Would highly recommend Nina and Tony!!”
“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“Diana took excellent care of my two pups, between her consistent communication to seeing how happy they were while there, I couldn’t be happier! I highly recommend her for your sitting needs”
“Charlie had a blast with Selina and was well cared for. He really loves her and during pick up, he wanted to go back into her place. He had plenty of exercise and play time, which is important to his well being. Thank you Selina.”
About: I’ve been fostering dogs with weight problems. I successfully managed their weight through strict diet and regular walks. I follow proper schedule for playtime and other activities so that the pets do their daily exercise. As a mom with grown kids, I understand the deep importance of family including the four-legged members. I am starting this new chapter of my life to help busy working parents keep their pets happy, healthy, and exercised. I have a fully secured fenced yard for play time and a foster rescue dog as a friendly companion. Feeding and playtime will be managed separately.
“I was very cautious about Rover, due to the small percentage of bad news I was getting. I have been following Elise’s IG page for a while. Seeing all the good reviews, decided to give Rover a chance by booking with Elise. She was able to answer all the questions we had as well as asking us about our dog. She even provided us a list of what was needed, including optional items. A crate was already provided by her which was a plus. She is kind, honest, and loves her work and it shows. Continuously giving us updates with a messages and photos. I can confidently say my dog came home happy and tired lol. I will definitely book with Elise again for future boarding.”
“Thank you Nancy and Touc for giving us a great first experience on Rover! They gave us peace of mind while we were away and were incredibly communicative. Would highly recommend and will book them again!”

Throughout the day, I can care for another pet within the house and also allow them to stay within the backyard. I could send updates and fulfill requests of owners to provide fresh water, treats, or preparing meals.
“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”
“Jack and Angel are amazing! They are parents themselves to 3 cute doggos and they provide full access to their large home with a big backyard (complete with a dog door). They are thoughtful and attentive and very responsive. Our pup had a wonderful time staying in their home. Highly recommend!”
About: I've always been an animal lover however, when I got my own dog 10 years ago I experienced the feeling of unconditional love. I have a soft spot for special needs pets.

She’s amazing!”

“We had a great experience with Johnason. He followed all our instructions carefully and sent regular updates. Our cat was well cared for, and we really appreciated his reliability and kindness. Thank you”
“If you’re looking for a sitter, stop right here — Katelyn is the one. I have three cats and this was my first time leaving them for more than just a quick trip, so I was super nervous. I honestly didn’t know if I could trust anyone with them. But Katelyn completely changed that for me. Communication She was amazing from the start. Before the visits she asked all the right questions, learned about my cats, their habits, and how my home is set up. While I was away (in a totally different time zone), she always told me when she was on the way, and after each visit she sent detailed updates with lots of clear photos. Those pictures weren’t just proof, they really showed how much attention she gave. Every message felt thoughtful and personal, and it gave me so much peace of mind. Care Katelyn did everything: cleaned litter boxes, washed bowls, refreshed food and water, kept the space tidy, and made sure the cats had playtime and treats. What blew me away was how quickly my cats warmed up to her. They’re usually very shy, but they went to her almost right away. Seeing my cats actually playing with someone new — that was a first, and it meant so much to me. Other Honestly, Katelyn gave me more than I expected. If you’re hoping for good care, she’ll give you great care. If you’re expecting fine, she’ll give you fantastic care. Her passion and responsibility really shine through, and it’s clear she treats your pets as if they were her own. I came back to happy, relaxed cats and a clean home, and I can’t thank her enough. If you want someone who truly cares, who communicates, and who you can trust with your pets — book Katelyn. You won’t regret it.”

I provide walks as needed, playtime, comforting if he or she is anxious, simple medicstions and wound-dressing, and and of course feeding and watering on their schedule.
“Tatyanan was incredible kind and supportive throughout the whole process. I had never used Rover, let alone a pet sitter. Before even booking with her she came to meet my cats and I and walk me through the process. While I was out of state for my fiance's surgery, she went above and beyond to make sure that my cats were taken care of, regularly sending pictures, and that the place stayed clean from pet messes. I greatly appreciate Tatyana and would absolutely book her again! Thank you Tatyana!!”
About: I focus on providing consistent, in-home care so pets can remain comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. I am fully insured and currently accepting new clients. I typically like to schedule a brief Meet & Greet before confirming a new booking so we can ensure a good fit and review your pet’s routine and needs. As part of my care, I provide light, routine walks at a comfortable pace on flat neighborhood routes to support your dog’s daily routine and overall well-being. I have cared for dogs since childhood and have always had a strong bond with them. At the time, I fed my dogs, bathed them, walked them around the neighborhood, and played with them in my backyard. I always had a special bond with my dogs and was very protective of them. I bring that same protective, loving care to every dog I look after. I provide in-home pet sitting and dog walking services within the city of Fremont, CA. I care for dogs one year of age and older, with a primary focus on in-home care where pets receive plenty of time, attention, and companionship. I specialize in dog care and am not currently accepting cat-only bookings. Basic care for household cats may be included during house sitting visits for an additional fee. Dog walking is provided at a light pace on flat, neighborhood routes and is best suited for dogs who enjoy a relaxed, low-intensity routine. My current availability is primarily weekends, along with limited evening availability depending on schedule. I offer daytime visits, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight stays within Fremont. I follow each pet’s feeding, walking, and care routine closely to ensure consistency and comfort while helping minimize extended periods of time alone. Please send me a message with your dates and pet details, and we can arrange a Meet & Greet. I look forward to caring for your pet. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine so pets feel comfortable, secure, and relaxed. I make sure food, water, light walks, and potty breaks are handled on schedule, provide playtime and companionship, and always keep the home safe and tidy. In the event of illness or an emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow your designated veterinary instructions. If needed, I will also contact Rover’s 24/7 Trust & Safety Support for guidance. I ask that all clients provide an emergency contact who is located nearby and able to assist with transport or additional support if required.
“Our cats were very well taken care of while we were gone. We felt confident leaving them for 8 days in Jing’s care. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos! She made sure to play with them after feeding which they love. You can tell she’s passionate about cats and their well being.”
“Rebooked with Andrew because I can't imagine trusting my precious baby cat and dog with anyone else! You'd think Andrew was Santa-Claws (ha, get it) from the way my dog IMMEDIATELY starts whining in excitement when he realizes "Uncle Andrew" is going to come spend time with him. My cat, who has NEVER voluntarily crawled onto my lap to sit and chill, is the total opposite with Andrew. He's both the cat AND the dog whisperer, and it's awesome. Andrew's great as always - punctual, caring, communicative, all the things that make for an excellent, trustworthy, above and beyond pet care giver.”
“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”
“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”
“I absolutely recommend Joyce to anyone looking for a caring and diligent sitter for their beloved pets. She was so good with our two kittens and even our shy, reserved girl who's not great with strangers really took to her. She went above and beyond making sure our babies got all affection and attention they could want with plenty of treats and play. She also sent us tons of photos and videos and detailed notes on her visits, making us feel at ease while we were out of town. I will definitely be reaching out again the next time we need a cat sitter.”
About: I owned and took care pets through out my life. I love animals and treat them like my friends. I will take care your pets the same way I would treat them as my own. I am currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 3pm. I have no pets and small children in my house. I have a fenced yard for your dog to play in. I can also walk your dog around my nice neighborhood as needed.
“Adrianna! Thank you so much for your help with the kitties. You went above and beyond. I can’t thank you enough for your flexibility and help! You’re the best!”
About: I genuinely care about animals and treat them like family. I enjoy spending time with them and build strong emotional bonds. Many of my friends trust me to care for their pets because I am patient, reliable, and attentive to their needs. I work from home and can regularly visit your home to spend time with your pets, feed them, and play with them on weekdays and weekends. I primarily care for pets in my clients’ homes because I believe they feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. I currently work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to spend extended time with pets during the day — providing companionship, playtime, feeding, and regular check-ins rather than only short visits. When I am in a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow all house rules and care instructions. I keep doors and windows secure, ensure pets stay in safe areas, and never bring visitors or outside animals into the home. I follow each pet’s daily routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, cleaning, and medication if needed, so their lifestyle remains consistent and stress-free. I pay careful attention to body language and behavior to make sure pets feel relaxed and emotionally supported. I provide frequent updates and photos so owners always know how their pets are doing. My goal is to create a calm, safe, and trustworthy environment — and to care for every pet with the same patience and respect I would give to my own family.
“We really appreciate the wonderful care you provided for our kitten. You consistently fed her on schedule, were very responsive to messages, and shared timely updates that gave us peace of mind while we were away. We also loved seeing that you spent quality playtime with her and kept her engaged and happy. Thank you for being so attentive, reliable, and caring—we would be happy to have you watch our kitten again in the future!”
About: We treat every furry friend like family. Every guest is different, and we’re happy to adapt to whatever they need — walks, snuggles, playtime, or just a comfy spot to nap. Currently working remotely from home, we have plenty of time and availability to ensure your pet feels safe and loved. Our schedule is very flexible, so feel free to reach out and coordinate a time that works best for you! We live in a quiet 2b1b apartment in a peaceful neighborhood, perfect for relaxed walks and playtime. We also have plenty of experience caring for senior dogs. Our sweet Coco is eleven years old — super sweet, very chill, and absolutely loves her solo nap time!
“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for my cats. She is very reliable, follows instructions carefully, and always pays close attention to their individual needs. One of my cats is very shy and cautious around people, and Jennifer was incredibly compassionate and patient with her, respecting her boundaries while helping her feel safe and comfortable. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Siqin was incredibly sweet & thoughtful. My cat is very shy and also needed oral medication, but Siqin was able to win her trust and affection after just a few visits. Updates were thorough and timely. Would 100% book again!”

About: I’ve never known a life without pets present. I grew up side-by-side with my parents’ first “baby”—a golden retriever puppy born just a few months before me—and my love for animals only grew from there. As a teen, I volunteered at local rescues, fostered animals throughout undergrad, adopted a sweet senior dog of my own, and later welcomed home my first cat: a scrappy little shelter kitten labeled “on clearance.” (Yes, really.) I’ve cared for pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels—from zoomies-on-command puppies to nap-loving seniors. I know every animal has their own quirks, and I tailor my care to match what makes your pet feel happiest, safest, and most at ease. As a lifelong pet parent myself, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to find someone you trust. That’s why I go out of my way to make the experience feel seamless and stress-free—for both you and your pet. I’ll never treat your booking like a quick task; I genuinely love spending time with animals and want them to feel just as comfortable with me as they do with you. Expect plenty of updates, photos, and thoughtful notes after each visit. Whether your dog needs a patient buddy, a walking partner, or just someone to sit and keep them company—I’ll be there with warmth, reliability, and care you can count on. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I work remotely/part time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, and snuggles they need throughout the day. Whether it's morning walks, midday potty breaks, or evening playtime, I’m able to build my day around your pet’s needs to keep them happy and relaxed while you're away for the weekend or at the office. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, their comfort and safety are always my top priority. I take time to understand each pet’s routines, quirks, and preferences so I can make them feel as secure and stress-free as possible. If I'm sitting in your home, I’m respectful of your space and routines, maintaining a familiar environment for your pet. I always double-check gates, leashes, and feeding instructions—because trust is built in the little details. I tend to over-communicate, especially if your pet and I are only just starting to get to know each other, as I know how nerve wracking it can be to trust a stranger with not only your family member, but your residence as well! I’m respectful, and follow all care instructions to the T, and will check in as frequently as you’d like me to, so that you know your loved one is in good, trustworthy hands. _______ As a random bonus — for my Chinese clients, I am 100% fluent in Mandarin (國語/普通話). However, I am an ABC, so I would prefer English especially for written communication, but otherwise, I hope my bilingual skills make the process of finding a sitter you trust and are comfortable with even easier.
“After adopting our little Shit Tzu from the shelter 3 1/2 months ago, this is the first time we've had her with anyone else. This was an all-day booking and we were very pleased with the good care Yuhong took of our little dog. The first great thing is that Minnie likes her and they got along very well. She seemed comfortable at her home which gave us peace of mind, knowing she was happy and in attentive and kind hands. We highly recommend Yuhong for sitting your dog. She is versatile for cats as well, but we also appreciate that she only sits one pet at a time. We feel that gives your furry family member excellent one-on-one attention. Yuhong was receptive to our suggestions for helping to make this a positive first-time experience. She implemented our requests, was patient and kind. What more can one ask for?”
About: Hi! I grew up with a sweet Golden Retriever, and while I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve been lucky to host and care for many different breeds and personalities over the years. From playful puppies to gentle giants, I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique quirks and making them feel right at home. Because I’m not currently working, I can dedicate plenty of time, attention, and love to your furry friend. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I make sure every pup gets the care they deserve. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet in good hands, so I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own — with patience, safety, and affection every step of the way. Looking forward to welcoming your four-legged family member! 🐶❤️ I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to give your pet my full attention. I can provide regular walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day, ensuring they’re well cared for and never lonely. Weekdays and weekends works. We have an independent house and a small patio that is walled. We also have a gated dog park in our community that is private to only residents. We have ring cameras outside the house and also doggy cam inside the house to always a watch on the pet we host and take care.
“I’m so grateful we found Ranjeet and his family to care for our 6-month-old German Shepherd pup. Ranjeet is calm, reassuring, and our pup felt comfortable with him right away. Communication was smooth and prompt, and he was incredibly accommodating. I highly recommend him. Your dog will feel right at home!”
“Rose was excellent! Super flexible and took good care of my 7 month old puppy. We did a meet and greet prior to her babysitting and when I brought my puppy back for sitting, he was super excited to see her! It looked like he had a blast from day care & when he came home he was so worn out lol. I’m very happy she was kind to him and kept him stimulated and entertained! Would definitely book again”

“Phina did so well with our sweet and shy girl. We will definitely be back! There was no doubt that our girl was safe and cared for during her 3 days of daycare. Thank you Phina!”
“I recently took my dog Charlie to daycare with Isabella, and the experience was fantastic! Isabella was extremely detailed, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease leaving him with her. She asked thoughtful questions during the booking process and gave us a thorough tour of the daycare area, which definitely reassured me. Charlie had a great time and was happy and relaxed when I picked him up. I’m definitely going to rebook with Isabella in the future. I highly recommend Isabella and her daycare service.”
About: We’ve had pets all our lives. Currently, we have two cats. For the most part, someone is always WFH. The only day one of us isn’t WFH is Thursday. If we know early enough, we can flex our schedules if any sitting is needed on Thursday. We’ve watched bunnies, cats, and dogs for friends/family including giving medication. We have had no aggression from our pets with the pets we’ve watched. We have a second room(atm being used as an office/guest room), so if you want your pet separate from ours pets, that is something we can accommodate. For dogs during boarding, our household prefers dogs that tend to ignore our cats. Also, we have a preference for senior dogs since they tend to be low energy and do not require long walks to use the restroom. For cats, we have experience with all kinds of energy and ages. If you have a cat with a lot of energy, our Taro girl has shown that she loves playing with all the energetic kitties and helps them come out of their shell. However, both our cats can adapt to senior cats as they both love to lounge. We are willing to negotiate our prices if you believe your pet to be low maintenance or if for example doggy daycare, your pet would be with us for less than 7 hours. Just ask and we can see what we can do during the meet and greet. There is usually always someone at home except Thursday. If you need sitting help on a Thursday, reach out early and we can see about flexing our WFH schedule for that week. One of us is a morning person and the other an evening person in case you have a pet with a weird schedule. We ask for a clear schedule such as when to walk and feed and follow it. This information will always vary depending on the pet or even if they are on medication. For all pets, we’ve given them some space, especially from our pets and seen if they can interact or not depending on what their owners want. We also try to incorporate playtime if they want that.
“Elise is an amazing dog sitter! This was my puppy’s first time staying with her and she made the whole experience so stress-free. She sent many pictures, videos and updates throughout the day which gave me so much peace of mind. My puppy looked so happy while in her care and came home ready for a long nap. Elise went above and beyond to make sure my puppy was comfortable in the new environment. She even gave her a nail trim and sent her home with a sweet treat! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter, I’ll definitely be brining my puppy back to her!”

“Nicole is awesome! She sent me updates throughout the day which I really appreciated receiving at work. My dog gets nervous around bigger dogs and avoids them but her husky was well behaved which was evident by how comfortable Zoey seemed around her. Nicole walked Zoey wI highly recommend Nicole if you want to know your dog will be well taken care of.”

“Andrew is an exceptional dog walker—timely, responsive, and truly attentive to my requests. My dog can be strong and tends to pull toward other dogs and people, but Andrew carefully listened to my concerns and followed my instructions perfectly. He always responds promptly to text messages and is consistently on time. Knowing that he can confidently handle my dog gives me invaluable peace of mind. Beyond that, Andrew went above and beyond when I needed a walker at the last minute. His profile states that he's available when others aren't, and that proved absolutely true. He stepped in when I was in a bind and made a stressful situation much easier. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a dependable and thoughtful dog walker!”
“We were out of town for a week and had Alex come to walk our 3yr old Labrador daily. Alex did a great job, followed instructions, and provided photos and walking route everyday. We would definitely book again with Alex.”
“Paige was very responsive & accommodating with our last minute request, and took great care of our dog Kiara during her walk. She was very gentle with Kiara, & it was evident that Kiara loved her walk. Will definitely be booking Paige again!”

About: Since I was young, I have always loved dogs and cats. My Dad always referred to our house as Noah’s Ark because we always had so many animals. I received this love for animals from my mother. She had a gift for raising animals for very long periods of time and loved them like they were her children. She called them her fur babies and I have since followed in her foot steps. I love dogs that play fetch and cats, along with their attitude and personality. We spend time walking, playing with and laying around with our family dogs - we have three! Fury is our Chihuahua who loves to sleep all day and cuddle. Bo, our Rottie mix who enjoys walks and playing with other dogs. And our playful pup Gus, who loves to eat! Our sons also love dogs and enjoy having guest dogs around! We love animals and will treat yours as we do ours, as part of the family. My wife works from home and has time to care for and play with your fur babies! She will feed them, take them for walks and gives your dog(s) free reign of the house and yard. I have a locked and fenced atrium and backyard … and three wonderful dogs to keep them company! When it’s warm, the back slider is left open for the dogs to freely go in and out as they please. There is plenty of room for them to run around out back, front and side. They sleep whenever they’re most comfortable and can hang out on the couch or wherever they chose. As mentioned earlier, they very quickly become a part of our extended family! Since I work from home, I have time to care for, and play with your pets! We can follow the same routine they have at home. We have a fenced atrium and backyard as well as three active dogs to keep your fur babies busy! They have free reign of the home and can play or rest where they’re most comfortable!
About: What sets me apart is the time, attention, and genuine care I give every pet. I’m home full time, so your pet won’t be left alone for long hours; I’m able to stick closely to their routine, provide companionship, and quickly respond to any needs. I’m also very observant, which is especially important when caring for senior pets or those with special needs. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and I’m patient with shy, anxious, or high energy pets. Whether it’s giving extra belly rubs, helping a senior pet move around comfortably, or keeping a puppy on track with their training schedule, I focus on making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. Since I stay home to support my family, I have the time and flexibility to give pets the attention they deserve. Pet care is already part of my daily routine; I’m used to feeding on schedule, cleaning up, taking pets out, and making time for play and exercise. Being home allows me to respond quickly to their needs and keep a close eye on their well-being. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and love creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. Whether pets are in my home or I’m visiting theirs, I prioritize keeping their routine as close to normal as possible to help them feel secure. At my home, I provide a clean, pet safe environment with regular feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and quiet time. I follow any special instructions, like medications or preferred toys, and keep pets supervised and comfortable. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines. I make sure pets are fed, walked, played with, and cleaned up after according to the owner’s instructions. I also take time to bond with the pet, so they feel safe while their owner is away. I keep in touch with updates and photos, so owners know their pet is in good hands.
About: I have 9 years of hands-on animal rescue experience including fostering, TNR work and caring for pets from outdoor rescues. Through this volunteer work and my unconditional genuine love for all animals, I’ve learned to be patient, observant, and gentle, giving each animal the time and care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and unhurried visits so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. I’m especially comfortable caring for rescue pets and understand that trust can take time, so I always move at each pet’s pace and respect their individual boundaries.
“Adrianna was amazing like always! She walked and fed our dogs Koda and Cleo and sent us great pictures and updates! Our dogs get excited to her and we will definitely be requesting her to walk our dogs again! :)”
About: Hi, I’m Alex! I’ve done informal pet care for friends and family for about 15 years - if anyone goes out of town, they call me first! Since losing my childhood cat & dog, I’ve struggled to get another pet, but I have so much love to give 💗 I’ve taken care of cats from kitten stage to geriatric palliative care, as well as dogs of all shapes and sizes. Guaranteed to take cute pet photos! I am a full time program manager in the tech industry with very flexible hours. I can adjust my schedule to accommodate walks or drop ins. My service area is wide due to a long commute, so I’m able to cover most clients in the East Bay! I think animals thrive more while remaining in their own environment, so I prefer drop in visits or house sitting over stays in my home. I’ve done up to a 2 week stay with a pet while their owner was abroad. I do have the space for smaller animals within my condo for animals who don’t mind being uprooted!
About: I have pet sit two cute poodle mixes for 10 days recently and also pet sit a medium sized dog for the weekend. My sister has two large dogs with whom I have spent a lot of time!

About: I love meeting and caring for dogs, and i live in a simple and comfortable home for new dogs to come and explore. I have a playful 10 y/o Maltese that makes for a great play date. I work from home and have my own dog, so my home is well set up for fur friends to come and hang out at! I live in a 3BR with my dog. Because I have a dog, the house is doggy proof with no snacks or choking hazards lying around.
“Fatima was very responsive and quick with the booking process. She communicated well and was gracious in accepting a last minute request. She arrived on time and didn't have any difficulty managing my big dog. Kristal (my dog) was super happy and pleasantly tired the rest of the day. Thank you Fatima.”
About: I've taken care of my friends' dogs when needed. I also had a 13 year old German Shepherd mix that I adopted when he was 5 and just recently passed away this year. I am currently working part time, so I am available during the morning/afternoon on weekdays to walk your dog or check in on them for a potty break. I live in a quiet place without a lot of activity happening, and I like to stick with scheduled meal times and a consistent routine.
About: I provide more than just dog walking and sitting—I create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for your pet while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to give them personalized attention, whether that means energetic walks, playtime, or calm companionship. I am currently seeking a part-time opportunity, available 2–3 days per week, with availability every other Saturday. Weekends please notify me at least 2 days ahead of time please. Reliability and trust are my top priorities. You can count on me to be punctual, communicative, and fully present with your dog. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy at all times. I also provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in great hands.
About: I’ve spent the last few years caring for dogs in many different situations — from energetic German Shepherds on a farm to the gentle white shepherd I rescued and raised myself. In 2021, I worked on a farm where I fed, cleaned, and played with four shepherds daily. When one of their puppies was seriously injured, I took him home, cared for him, and helped him recover fully. He has been with me ever since. Because of this experience, many friends now bring their dogs to me whenever they travel. I’m patient, responsible, and very comfortable with dogs who have different personalities or special needs. I truly love caring for animals, and I always treat every dog with the same level of attention and kindness I give to my own. My work schedule is flexible, so I can adjust my time based on your needs. Whether it’s afternoon, or evening visits, I’m able to plan my day around providing care for your dog. I prefer caring for pets in their own home where they feel most comfortable. You can simply let me know your routine and any specific instructions, and I will follow them carefully. My goal is to keep your dog safe, relaxed, and happy while maintaining their normal schedule.
“Tiffany is great. She is punctual and dependable. Our dog Penny loves going on walks with here. Definitely recommend her for anyone needing a sweet person to walk their pet.”

“I highly recommend Lily to anyone looking for a sitter. She is very kind and friendly with dogs. Our dog is anxious in new places. Lily clearly understood her nature and took excellent care of her. This is the second time leaving our dog with her and our dog loves Lily. She sends daily updates with pictures which helped us be at ease and enjoy our vacation. Lily is the best and is one of my go to dog sitters.”
“Charlie had a blast with Selina and was well cared for. He really loves her and during pick up, he wanted to go back into her place. He had plenty of exercise and play time, which is important to his well being. Thank you Selina.”
“I was very cautious about Rover, due to the small percentage of bad news I was getting. I have been following Elise’s IG page for a while. Seeing all the good reviews, decided to give Rover a chance by booking with Elise. She was able to answer all the questions we had as well as asking us about our dog. She even provided us a list of what was needed, including optional items. A crate was already provided by her which was a plus. She is kind, honest, and loves her work and it shows. Continuously giving us updates with a messages and photos. I can confidently say my dog came home happy and tired lol. I will definitely book with Elise again for future boarding.”

“Thanks for taking excellent care of my dog, Friday while he was recovering from a leg injury. I loved all the pictures and updates. You were great at communicating and following all my extensive instructions 😅 and also were super flexible and helpful during a stressful period. You also really cared about my dog's well being, taking him on sniffing walks and car rides and playing games with him to keep him entertained. I would 100% recommend you both to other dog parents! Thank you!”

Also a bonus she has a nice grassy yard for my dogs to freely roam in!”
About: I have extensive experience in dog care, having worked with various breeds and temperaments. I prioritize providing a safe and comfortable environment (my home is situated in 10,000 sq ft fenced lot) for all the dogs I board, ensuring they feel at home while away from their owners. One of the key aspects of my care is offering homemade, fresh meals tailored to each dog's dietary needs, which I prepare daily. This personal touch ensures the dogs receive the best nutrition and maintain their health while in my care. I also make sure to provide regular exercise, attention, and grooming to keep them happy and well-cared for. Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and I make sure to allocate specific time for each task to ensure the pets receive the attention and care they need. Each morning, I start by feeding the pets homemade, fresh meals, followed by a walk or playtime for exercise. Throughout the day, I monitor their well-being, providing additional activities, grooming, and companionship. In the evening, I ensure they get a final meal and some quiet time before settling in for the night. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my schedule, and I always prioritize their health, happiness, and comfort. I have huge fenced yard and one dog to create homely environment. I like to hang out with furry companions and provide TLC for their comfort 😃

“This is our 3rd time using Michelle and she is great with our fur babies! We received updates day and night with photos. I have a complicated eating schedule for my dogs, but she always follows it with care. Love that it's one dog at a time. That gives our family so much peace of mind knowing they are getting the attention they need. We are booked again with Michelle for summer vacation. I know they will be well taken care of. :)”
“We had a great experience with Pratima.. She is reliable & attentive. From the start, communication was smooth and reassuring— Pratima kept us updated with messages and photos, which really put our mind at ease while we were away. Both my dogs were happy, well-cared for, and comfortable. It’s clear Pratima took the time to understand our dogs routine and needs. We definitely recommend Pratima to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and we’ll be happy to book with them again in the future.”

“We boarded our two dogs (one of which is deaf) for an extended weekend at Caddie's. Caddie sent regular videos and photos of the dogs from the moment we dropped them off to the time of pickup. Caddie maintained communication the whole time, asking questions about our deaf dog's command language and other care needs. She also provided updates about their food intake. Caddie and her family not only played and walked our dogs daily, they also cleaned and groomed them often. Our dogs were definitely pampered during their stay. Caddie's home is like a second home. We will certainly consider Caddie for our future dog boarding needs.”
