“Ash's stay with Sharon was great! Very nice environment and set up for a dog. Regular updates/photos were much appreciated. Ash clearly enjoyed he stay and that was great peace of mind that added to my enjoyment of my trip away. Thanks so much!”

“Our dog had a great time under Michelle's care! She kept in constant contact with us, sending text messages and videos. We would highly recommend Michelle to watch your dog - she is a true dog lover!”

“The experience was amazing even before the boarding began! We got a meet-and-greet at Sara's house a few days prior. This was perfect for our shy puppy to help get her warmed up to the new environment. During the boarding, we received daily pictures and updates and it was obvious that she was getting lots of playtime and attention. Definitely recommend Sara!!”

“Alexa is an angel! We have two dogs whom are used to being with my husband and I 24/7 because we both work remotely. We are very selective in who we have watch our boys while we are gone (typically family or friends would come to our home and stay with them)… but we moved from Southern to Northern California so need to figure out an alternative. After searching Rover I came across Alexa’s profile and read each review and she stood out as someone that could be a good fit for my boys. I reached out and was immediately impressed with Alexa’s responsiveness, and decided to proceed with an introduction. It couldn’t have gone better. Alexa had clearly studied my dogs profiles to get familiar with the basic needs of each and I appreciated the questions she asked to understand their normal routine. Within just a short time of drop off, Alexa sent an update with pictures which allowed us to see that they were making themselves right at home and enjoying play time and snuggles. My Boys looked relaxed, content, and exercised. I’ll definitely book with Alexa again!”

“Absolutely wonderful person and family for our pup to stay with! Amanda was great at caring for our senior pup and we appreciate knowing she was in safe hands during our trip.”


“My dog stayed with Shannon for a week, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. Shannon was friendly, responsive, and provided daily photo and video updates, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Shannon was also very accommodating with the pick-up time which I really appreciated. I think my dog enjoyed his little own "vacation" too!”

“Amy & Justin gave our German Shepard an incredible experience. He was well taken care of, loved, and enjoyed his time with them and their dog River. Would book again in a heartbeat!”

“Jena and her family took the absolute best care of our dog, Juno. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands. They treated her like one of their own, and it showed. Juno was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We had total peace of mind while we were away, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jena again. Highly recommend!”

“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”
About: Served as a volunteer and foster parent for many rescued animals in Bali during the pandemic. My experience with animals is vast. Ive grown up with many different kinds of pets. Cats. Dogs. Birds. Reptiles. Rodents. Chickens. ducks. Donkeys. Horses. Pigs. Goats. You name it. I love all animals. I was raised in the foothills in the redwood forest. I’m a very down to earth and healthy lifestyle human who just loves fur babies of all types. I’m attentive and loving and playful with animals. I really need it as much as they do. I work early in the mornings off around 9am and then have most of the day to myself. It’s nice to have an excuse to take a dog on a walk or to lounge around with some kitty cuddles. Having animals in my home makes it feel more like a home. In my own home I will be in close proximity at all times and I will be home the entire time so I can sense when potty breaks or walks are needed. I really enjoy taking walks myself so it’s a perfect fit to have dogs over. Cats are similar with the exception of walks unless you want to leash train them or already have. I love to keep an eye on them so they don’t hurt themselves and I give lots of play time.
“Five stars all around; we are so glad to have found Amanda and will book with her again when we leave for our next trip for sure. We booked last minute and she has been nothing but great, frequent updated with pictures and all. Thank you!”

“Otis is not the easiest pup and has separation anxiety as well as probable trauma in a previous home. But he seemed so well loved and cared for when we picked him up. It was hard to leave him with a stranger but they were so reassuring and experienced with dogs that it really put us at ease. I would trust Kristine and Joseph with our sweet boy again for sure. They were even willing to take him on VERY short notice and totally saved me from missing out on a very important family event. So thankful!”

“I wish I could leave more than 5-stars. Diane was so loving and sweet to our doggos, provided a ton of updates and pictures, and truly treated them like her own. She is a trustworthy rover sitter and we will definitely be booking again 🧡🧡🧡”

“Melissa and her family and pets were wonderful and took excellent care of my dog when I had to go out of town. She is easy to communicate with and sends regular updates which is appreciated. I can highly recommend her.”


“Our dog Otis had a great time at Grant's. Grant was great at sending photos, videos and daily updates. Otis needs a lot of exercise. Grant kept him active and we really appreciate the effort he took to make sure Otis was exercised. We will definitely take him back soon.”

“Catie-Lynn was amazing with my injured cat! He was hurt right before I left to go on a trip. She was careful to follow my instructions and kept a close eye on my cat while his tail healed. She gave him his oral meds 2x a day and updated me often. I can definitely recommend her and her family. Your pet will receive a lot of careful love, attention, and fun!”

“Elaine is an amazing, experienced sitter and knew just how to help Floyd feel comfortable and settle in for a short stay. I appreciate the great communication and frequent updates. 100% would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, caring environment for their animals.”

About: I currently have a 7 year old cat who is like our child. I also grew up with a cat (that was with me for 20 years!). But my real love for cats started when I started working in animals hospitals, and I discovered that I have a knack for handling the more temperamental/fractious cats. Winning over a shy/scared cat is so rewarding (and takes patience). I am able to give medications if/when needed, but mostly I just want to cuddle them 💜
About: Hi friends! I’ve not only grown up with dogs but have one of my own! I’ve been pet sitting/boarding for over 10 years. Good friends, family members and customers of mine have all trusted me to watch their animals or stay over at their house and care for their babies! I’d love to help out if I can. I am currently for a brewery and have some free time! That may change in the future but for now, I’m here and available to give 100% of my attention to yours and my fur baby. I live in an apartment downtown. I’m close to numerous parks and dog parks. I live in a pet friendly environment and safe neighborhood. If I was at your home, I would follow any instructions you would like me to follow.

About: I have taken care of cats since I was a child including foster care for local shelters. I have always enjoyed taking on the special needs cases and have a blind cat of my own. It gives me a rich understand of cat's needs and medical care. Let me make your kitties as comfortable as possible.
“I can't thank Kat enough!! I had a unique situation, my cat that has diabetes and needs a shot every 12 hours. I have my mom to watch my animals but my little diabetic cat is a pill when I'm not the one giving her her shot, and it was getting more difficult for my mom to do it by herself. Kat literally saved the day!! I felt so much better that my mom had help to make sure she gets her shots! I will be booking her again for sure! Thank you again Kat for everything.”

“Maryjane was great! She stepped in when an emergency forced my other sitter to end the stay early and she picked up the care for my cat without missing a beat! My cat clearly loved her, too. He was happy and well fed, and my apartment looked great when I got home! I will definitely book with her again!”


“Danielle went out of her way and stopped by twice to meet and greet. She shared pictures and communicated with us as the visits went. Highly recommend, we will being booking with her again.”

About: My love for animals is the passion of my whole life. However, my lifestyle as an IT developer involves constant travel, and I don't keep a pet so as not to put it under stress. That is why I offer a unique service — looking after your pet in his native home. My work is remote, which allows me to combine two tasks: to provide your pet with care and attention in a familiar environment and at the same time work on my projects in a comfortable environment. I am not just a pet sitter, but a responsible animal lover who values their comfort and safety.

About: I used to only like dogs until one day I helped my neighbor rescue 14 kittens. I ended up having to foster 4 cats and ended up keeping 2 and got another one so now I have three. I understand how sensitive cats can be compared to dogs and how great they can be. Ill put my utmost effort into your caring for your feline friend.
About: I’ve always owned dogs and cats and I’ve always been an animal lover. My mom asked me what I want to be when I grow up and I said that I want to play the piano for puppies. I can’t play an instrument for the life of me, but I applied myself and went to school to become a Veterinary Assistant. And yes; I bathe my cat before applying flea meditation. Need a weekend getaway or a date night. I’m available on the week days. I am looking for a second job and with my experience this seems like a perfect fit for me. I will follow guidelines/standards set by you! Also, your animal can tell me the when, where, and for how long we should eat, sleep, play, walk, ect.
“Teri was fantastic! She went above and beyond trying to coax our timid cat out from under the bed. Everything was well taken care of and very timely. She was on top of everything and responded to communications very promptly. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter.”

About: Not only do I have 10 years of experience of pet sitting, I have experience working with shelter dogs. I’ve been with Placer SPCA as a volunteer for many years. I work with fearful, excitable, shy and even reactive dogs on a weekly basis. I make sure to give them the best care I can provide. I have plenty of free time and my shelter schedule is very flexible! I spend most of my time caring for pets or working with animals. I am someone that you can contact last minute for pet sitting! I will make sure that your pet gets all the love, care and attention your best friend could possibly need. I provide mostly overnight care, in which I make sure your pup is cared for in the same way you do every day. Building trust is very important to me, I’ll make sure to send pictures of your dog (or other animals) along with a report of how they are doing and any other info you may need.

“Sabrina is a joy to work with to watch our lil dude Nico. Her communication is fantastic and she always went the extra mile to ensure he was well-cared for. We had complete ease of mind being away and knowing that he received lots of love, cuddles and care.”

“Michelle and Dave are amazing! I knew I had found the perfect sitters within minutes. Truly dog lovers. My three year old Pom Chi has never had day care, she loves them! I highly recommend them!”

“Brittni is a great dog sitter! She is responsive, very responsible, and did a great job with my two dogs!! They had never been around a horse, chickens, or a cow before, but Brittni introduced them to these new animals--a great socialization experience for my dogs! They loved chasing balls on her land, running and smelling the fresh air, and of course playing with her own dog. She sent photos and videos and I loved seeing them when I was at work knowing they were having a great time. I will definitely use Brittni again. Thanks for giving my dogs a wonderful new life experience Brittni!”

“My high-energy large Lab and Golden Retriever puppy had an amazing day with Michelle and her family on their farm, and came home tired and well-cared for ❤️. Hope they will be able to visit again soon! Thank you again!”
“We had to find a sitter for one day for Issa, our German Shepard. We were able to drop her off early and pick her up the same day. Elisabeth made the arrangements very accommodating. Our puppy played in the water and seemed to have had great day. We would love to have her watch Issa again.”

“First and best experience with doggy day care! Sara is amazing - so amazing Sugar acted as if I was a stranger. Sugar had so much fun she was tired and napping away when I picked her up. She was definitely showing me some attitude when leaving Sara’s; I’m sure Sugar wanted me to continue working for another 8+ hours. Sugar and I both highly recommend!”

“We were in Placerville to attend a friend’s memorial service and had no where to leave Dash. When we found Sara on Rover, we hit the jackpot! Sara has the most wonderful property to give your dog the play time that they will love. I knew that Dash was having the best time ever, from the photos, and the videos that Sara would send me. This was all confirmed by Dash, for when we got back to our hotel, he conked out for the rest of the night. Sara is a dog loving professional and I do not hesitant in recommending her services!”

“Catie-Lynn and her loving family took excellent care of my older, blind pug mix, Winnie. When I arrived to pick up Winnie, the entire family was there to greet me. It was clear to me that Winnie received lots of love throughout the day. I appreciated their willingness to help me with my special needs dog. Five stars!”

“Elaine, treated Cruz like one of her own. She gave her lots of love and attention. Cruz had such a great time with her and her pups that she didn’t want to leave each day, and was ecstatic going back each morning. Elaine provided us with great pics and detailed updates. So thankful to know that Cruz had a wonderful week of daycare with her!!”


“My dog seemed very happy here and I got several updates throughout the day on how he was doing!! Very pleased with the doggy day care service and looking forward to future visits!”

About: I am a lover of animals in general. I have had dogs, cats, horses and goats all my life and know the commitment and care that goes into owning and loving them as family members. I have lived on a ranch and can care for livestock as well. I have been caring for my own animals, as well as friends, family and clients since I was a young girl. I do work from home, so I am here all day every day to meet the needs of your pet. I am willing to discuss transport options. My dogs will be here to entertain them as well. I have three dogs, a 10 yro Pug, an 11 yro island mix breed and a mix breed Doodle pup about 2 an a half. I recovered out of a ditch. They are all very good natured, live in the house and on the furniture. It is not a free for all, I do have some rules, so I think. I also have 3 cats, horses and some goats. I can-do drop-in care or house sit on site. I have 20 acres in Pilot Hill. The property is not fully fenced, but I do have the materials and ability to put up pens. If you would like your pet to come here, we will discuss the individual needs of your pet.
“Amanda was very gracious towards our very naughty puppy. Apparently, some of the nervous behaviors that we don’t see at home came out with an unholy flourish at Amanda‘s home. But I appreciate the fact that Amanda gave us a full and honest report (which is helpful for us to gauge the areas he still needs significant training) and was very kind about the negatives. The most important thing, though, was that he settled down in the car almost immediately. Our dog is a very nervous dog, so if he has had a rough time at a dog sitter, we know right away because he whines and whimpers all the way home. After leaving Amanda‘s house, he winded for about 60 seconds and then went to sleep. Hallelujah! Thank you, Amanda, for the top quality care you have given to our very low quality puppy. I am especially grateful that Amanda was willing to take the puppy at the last minute, because my husband had a hospital procedure and I had completely forgotten about making arrangements for the dog. What a godsend Amanda has been.”

About: I have always had dogs/animals. We have 5 dogs of our own. We also foster with a local rescue. We specialize in the squish face breeds. We completely understand climate control. We love to exercise outside and go out often to romp. I am currently working remote part of the time (office days are Tues/Thurs). We typically always have someone home and the dogs are likely never alone for more than a 2-3 hour period. Our dogs are very friendly and love to play! We do not have a fenced yard, so our preference would be dogs that are not a flight risk! We can use a flexi leash for potty breaks but that would limit outside play for our guests. We live on 2.5 acres with a lot of grass to romp and play. Our dogs do not go outside unless supervised.
About: I have loved animals my whole life and have had many pets; dogs, cats, horses, birds, rabbits, sheep and more. I thoroughly enjoy being with animals, loving and caring for them. Some of my first jobs were at animal clinics, where I learned a lot about caring for animals. I was in FFA as a youth, where I raised and showed sheep, and where I also learned a lot. In my younger years I had many horses. I learned how to care for them, feeding, exercising, and cleaning up after them, etc! I learned responsibility, in addition to a deep love of animals. All of my experiences with my own animals, have made me a knowledgeable, responsible and compassionate animal care provider. I am currently semi-retired from working in the hospitality industry. I have plenty of time and I would thoroughly enjoy taking care of your beloved pets. I have an adorable mini schnauzer, Dudley, and a domestic short hair cat, Pete. I love them both so much and get so much enjoyment out of having and caring for them. We love cuddling, talking, and playing. I make sure they have the food, treats, exercise and attention they desire, and are well taken care of and will treat yours with the same love and respect that I show to my own pets.
About: Hi! My name is Sienna. I’ve been raised with dogs my whole life so I have much experience with dogs. I’ve been a dog sitter on many occasions for friends and on recommendation; long and short term stays. I’ve dog sat from puppies to older dogs and big to small dogs so I have dealt with a wide range of different doggies. I love dogs whole heartedly and would love to take care of yours!! I am currently unemployed and a college student mostly online. So I’ve much time to focus on your pet and give them the best care. I truly love dogs and all animals and would give your pet the utmost attention. I’ll do whatever you need for your pet to have the best care. If they do stay with me I have a large fenced in backyard with much room for them to play around. I’ll give your dog plenty of walks. I’ll of course follow any instructions you give to me. I hope you can put your trust in me and I’ll make sure to prove you can.

About: Hi there! I’m Chelsea, and I am so excited to help care for your furry friends! Growing up, my home always had a handful of critters, from cats, to dogs, to chickens, and many others. I loved it so much! I’ve been house sitting for many years and have worked with cats, dogs, chickens, small mammals, and fish. Trusting someone else to care for your animals can be a little daunting, but their care is my first priority. I have worked with animals of all ages, temperaments, and need levels. I have given oral and topical medications and will work with you to fulfill all of your pets’ medical needs. I also volunteered at an animal rescue for several years where I took dogs on walks, cleaned their areas, and assisted with the quarantine dogs. Your pets’ needs are my priority, no matter what that may be. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to spend taking care of your pets! I am available 7 days a week, at any time of the day, whenever your pets need it! I am available for drop in services and walks at any time of the day. I will visit your pets in your home, where they are most comfortable, and walk them in areas that we have discussed. Their safety in and out of your home is my top priority.

About: I've had pets all my life. Love and compassion are key! I am familiar with cats and dogs. I am experienced in administering meds if needed. I'm recently retired. My schedule is flexible.

About: I have taken care of dogs on my own since I got my dog Mr. Buddy who is an Australian Shepard. I raised him from a puppy when I got him in Alaska when I was in the air force. I also watch my sister's dogs all the time, and I've decided to turn my love of dogs into a profession. I've learned a lot about dogs from great people like ceaser milon and the dog father, and many great people I've met along the way on my travels in the military. Your dogs will be well taken care of under my care. I have decided to do this as a full time gig. I want to be my own boss and work better with animals then I do people lol. I have delt with dogs of every age from my grandparents older German Shepard of 14 years old to my dog Mr. Buddy as a young 12 week old pup. I can assure that I will adhere to any safety practices that you want for your fur baby. I also have my 4 year old Aussie, Mr. Buddy, that does great with other dogs and socializing them. I've seen him help mentally troubled dogs many times. Off course I will not bring him if the client doesn't want him there. But once again I care assure that any dog will be safe under my care.

About: Having animals ranging in all ages since I was 5 has definitely helped but also helping friends and family since the age of 13 has been the best experience. I am available 24/7, our animals are just as important as us so I believe in having time for them whenever you or them may need it. Always following directions given by owner and doing thorough checks throughout the time I am with your 4 legged family. Staying aware of surroundings when out and about in walks.

About: I have had animals since I was a young girl and was always responsible for caring for them in any way the family needed. I helped watch friends animals as well. I currently have animals of my own that I adore as much as my adult children :). They bring love and light into our home. I am a part time dental hygienist as well as an undergraduate student studying Criminal Justice/ Forensics with plenty of flexibility. I am home full time doing school so my availability is open. I only pick up dental hygiene shifts as needed as I have been in the dental field 32 years. We have a a nice chunk of land with a fence and one dog to play with your furbaby her name is Shadow and she is so sweet and old, but still has energy for fun. We have a pond to wade in as well which is Shadows favorite thing to do. We are always keeping an eye on all of our animals and make sure they are safe and always have what they need. We also have 4 indoor kitties but they usually hide when company is around.

(feeding, walks, playtime, bedtime) How is your dog’s temperament? (e.g., friendly, anxious, energetic, shy) Does your dog have any medical conditions or special needs? Are they up-to-date on vaccinations and flea/tick prevention? What are their favorite activities or toys? Do they have any triggers or fears? (e.g., loud noises, other animals, strangers) How do they react to other dogs, pets, or people? Are there specific commands or cues I should know? Does your dog have any allergies or dietary restrictions? Do they require medication? If yes, how and when should it be administered? What’s the best way to comfort them if they get anxious? Do they have any behavioral quirks I should be aware of? (e.g., chewing, barking) Who should I contact in case of an emergency? (vet info and alternate contact) Is there anything else I should know to ensure your dog’s happiness and safety? I have 9 Airbnbs and own real estate in TX but currently back in California while running my business from home. I can work from anywhere. I have an extremely flexible schedule. I usually wake up feed the pets, walk and play with the doggies then start my work during the day. I will let the dogs out during the day and then feed and walk in the evenings after I finish working. How I would care for your pets: 1. Feeding: Regular Feeding Schedule: Feed your dog at the same times each day to establish a routine. 2. Exercise: Daily Walks: Ensure your dog gets at least one to two walks per day, tailored to their energy levels. 3. Playtime: Engage in play with toys, fetch, or other activities to keep your dog mentally and physically stimulated. And anything else you would like me to do.

About: One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is sending photos and updates to owners while they're away. I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy, comfortable, and well cared for when you can't be there. I genuinely love working with animals of all kinds. Over the past 10 years, I've cared for cats, dogs, birds, lizards, chickens, and many other pets. Animals bring so much joy to the world, and I believe they deserve attentive, compassionate care. I'm known for being reliable, flexible, and easy to work with—whether I'm helping friends, family, or new clients I've just met. Because every pet has unique needs, I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and preferences. I also have extensive experience administering medications and caring for pets with special requirements. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your beloved companion is safe, happy, and receiving the same level of care and attention that I would give my own pets. I would love the opportunity to help care for your furry, feathered, or scaly family member. I currently work full time as an office manager in the Roseville area, but I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to support pet care needs throughout the day. I’m able to step out during my lunch breaks for potty visits, check-ins, or to administer medications when needed. My routine is well-structured, which helps me reliably accommodate most scheduling requests and provide consistent care. I understand how important timely visits and dependable support are for both pets and their owners, and I do my best to ensure that each visit is handled with care and attention. I believe the best pet care starts with following the guidance provided by pet owners. They know their pets best and understand their individual needs, routines, and personalities. One thing I've learned over the years is that every animal is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to caring for them. I also place a strong emphasis on observation and communication. When I first meet a pet, I take time to learn their normal behaviors and establish a baseline for how they typically act. If I notice anything that seems unusual or out of character, I promptly reach out to the owner to keep them informed. Clear, timely communication helps ensure the best possible care and provides peace of mind for pet owners. Above all, my goal is to create a safe, trusting, and compassionate environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for.
About: Animal lover available for walks, house sits, and overall care for all the good boys! No breed restrictions I love all types of dogs. Happy to help out! I’ll be walking, feeding, playing with and making your animal feel reassured. Available to take pups on hikes as well if they are well behaved! I currently only am a part time cat mom with my partner. In the past I’ve had experience with pitbulls, German Shepard’s and labradors. I offer over night stay as well. I love animals I have some volunteer pet experience at shelters. Making your pet feel safe and happy is my biggest priority! If the animal is small I can provide boarding and walks at my apartment as well. Feel free to ask any questions! I have full availability to take care of your furry friends. I’m available weekdays and weekends any day of the week. Have a great day! I value your pets safety above all things and I make sure to cater to any needs they might have. I’m very diligent and attentive.
About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life. I grew up being surrounded by animals and they have always been a huge part of my life. I had my English Springer Spaniel, Beau, for 13 years and just recently adopted a Bearded Collie/Golden Lab mix puppy. I also have my two 6 year cats, Rupert and Carl. I am the manager of a winery but have a pretty flexible schedule-especially in the evenings. I'm off work on Mondays and Fridays and am able to leave work early, if necessary. I'm also available in the early morning before 10am. Since I have three animals of my own, and to not upset their environment, it would be best for me to go to clients' homes to feed and take care of their animals.
About: Hi! I’m Tarron — lifelong animal lover, rescue director, and experienced handler with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and medical needs and many other animals including cats, ducks, goats, bunnies. I’m the Executive Director of a nonprofit animal rescue and have extensive experience with: * rescue and anxious dogs * senior dogs * puppies * medication administration * decompression and slow introductions * leash handling and structured walks * dogs recovering from surgery/injury * reactive or fearful dogs I understand that every dog is different and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and making dogs feel comfortable and secure. Because I have animals of my own and run a rescue, I currently focus on: * drop-in visits * dog walking * medication visits * structured enrichment walks * pet transport/help with vet visits I’m especially comfortable with dogs that may need a little extra understanding or experience beyond a typical pet sitter/walker. Reliable, communicative, calm, and genuinely passionate about animal welfare. I currently work as a program manger for adults with special needs, and manage a small team of individuals. Mornings and evening are best. As well as Tuesdays, and weekends. I do not provide pet care in my own home at this time, but I will gladly come to yours and spend time with your fur babies!

“Ash's stay with Sharon was great! Very nice environment and set up for a dog. Regular updates/photos were much appreciated. Ash clearly enjoyed he stay and that was great peace of mind that added to my enjoyment of my trip away. Thanks so much!”

“Our dog had a great time under Michelle's care! She kept in constant contact with us, sending text messages and videos. We would highly recommend Michelle to watch your dog - she is a true dog lover!”

“The experience was amazing even before the boarding began! We got a meet-and-greet at Sara's house a few days prior. This was perfect for our shy puppy to help get her warmed up to the new environment. During the boarding, we received daily pictures and updates and it was obvious that she was getting lots of playtime and attention. Definitely recommend Sara!!”

“Alexa is an angel! We have two dogs whom are used to being with my husband and I 24/7 because we both work remotely. We are very selective in who we have watch our boys while we are gone (typically family or friends would come to our home and stay with them)… but we moved from Southern to Northern California so need to figure out an alternative. After searching Rover I came across Alexa’s profile and read each review and she stood out as someone that could be a good fit for my boys. I reached out and was immediately impressed with Alexa’s responsiveness, and decided to proceed with an introduction. It couldn’t have gone better. Alexa had clearly studied my dogs profiles to get familiar with the basic needs of each and I appreciated the questions she asked to understand their normal routine. Within just a short time of drop off, Alexa sent an update with pictures which allowed us to see that they were making themselves right at home and enjoying play time and snuggles. My Boys looked relaxed, content, and exercised. I’ll definitely book with Alexa again!”

“Absolutely wonderful person and family for our pup to stay with! Amanda was great at caring for our senior pup and we appreciate knowing she was in safe hands during our trip.”

“Amy & Justin gave our German Shepard an incredible experience. He was well taken care of, loved, and enjoyed his time with them and their dog River. Would book again in a heartbeat!”

“Jena and her family took the absolute best care of our dog, Juno. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving hands. They treated her like one of their own, and it showed. Juno was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We had total peace of mind while we were away, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jena again. Highly recommend!”

“The best review is the way my little guy went running to Michelle with his tail wagging when I dropped him off. He obviously enjoyed his stay with his doggie friends everything to explore in the big back yard.”

“Our dog Otis had a great time at Grant's. Grant was great at sending photos, videos and daily updates. Otis needs a lot of exercise. Grant kept him active and we really appreciate the effort he took to make sure Otis was exercised. We will definitely take him back soon.”

“Catie-Lynn was amazing with my injured cat! He was hurt right before I left to go on a trip. She was careful to follow my instructions and kept a close eye on my cat while his tail healed. She gave him his oral meds 2x a day and updated me often. I can definitely recommend her and her family. Your pet will receive a lot of careful love, attention, and fun!”

“Irina took very good care of our 12-year-old dog for 8 nights. Irina made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with her. I got updates and photos while we were away and my dog came home very happy. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog in her care again. Thanks Irina!”

“Sara was amazing! Not only was she so sweet with our doggo but she lives on an amazing property which is a dogs paradise. Her dog Shadow was such a great playmate , and we received tons of photos while we were out of town. We will definitely book with Sara again!”
