“Monique was wonderful! We have engaged her as our sitter twice now: once for an overnight stay and once for a 13 day vacation! Monique kept in contact with us every day and sent pictures. Our girls are very used to their normal daily routine but they seemed to adapt to Monique wonderfully! A very telling moment for me was when we got back from vacation and I picked the dogs up. Got the dogs in the car and they were very glad to see me but as soon as they realized we were leaving without Monique they were like: Wait! You forgot her! They soon settled down but it was obvious they did not like leaving her. We can STRONGLY recommend Monique as a perfect sitter for your pup(s). There will be no one else for us when we need a sitter in the future.”
“Stephanie is outstanding in caring for my dogs. They go for walks, car rides and are loved and cared for. In fact the dogs (which had not seen Stephanie in months) ran up to the house when we delivered them. We are overwhelmingly pleased with her services.”
“Where do I even begin?! First off 5 stars is NOT even enough to say how amazing Krystal was with my Furbaby. Krystal was absolutely lovely and communicated well. I haven’t used Rover in over ten years and I was very nervous about leaving my dog with anyone I didn’t know. I had a short time frame to find someone which also added to my stress and worry. However, once I met Krystal I felt that my dog would be just fine. It was almost like her and Krystal had met before because Krystal and her family made Cleo feel right at home. They were patient, kind, caring, attentive and all around a great family. I would leave my dog with Krystal again any day. She sent pictures and videos daily to ensure I knew how my dog was doing. Definitely recommend her for any pet sitting!”
“Kyle and Sara took such good care of our boy!! We received daily updates and pictures of his activities while we were gone. We are so thankful we have someone to leave him with when we travel that treats him so well!”
“This was our first time using Rover and I’m thankful that our first time was with Marin. She made us feel at ease throughout the time she had our puppy. She didn’t give up when he struggled on his first night and she made him feel comfortable throughout the rest of his stay.”
“Danielle does such a great job taking care of our emotionally and medically complex elderly dog. We’ll feel secure in knowing our dog is well cared for whenever she stays with Danielle.”
About: I’m a pet parent to 3 cats and 1 dog, and over the years I’ve worked with multiple trainers to better understand animal behavior and communication. I’ve also volunteered at shelters, where I learned how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and support animals with patience and compassion. I love my own fur babies deeply, and I’ll care for yours with the same level of love, respect, and attention. If pricing is a concern, feel free to message me I’m always open to discussing options. Additionally, I am open to chickens, reptiles, and other pets. I work remotely, so I’m able to spend most of the day with your fur baby. For overnight stays, I may need a few short breaks during the day, and we can go over what works best for your pet during our meet‑and‑greet. I love being outdoors, and there’s no better company than a furry friend by my side. I’m available for walks and check‑ins Monday through Friday, as well as weekends and overnight stays. If you’d like to set up a meet‑and‑greet, feel free to message me. I make it a priority to communicate with you about your pet’s individual needs so every detail is understood and every comfort is met. I also take time to learn about any stresses, triggers, or special routines your fur baby may have. I usually recommend a meet‑and‑greet either in person or over Zoom to go over your pet’s daily schedule, since keeping their routine consistent helps reduce stress while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and this meeting allows us to cover everything thoroughly. The first meet‑and‑greet is free; any additional meetings may include a small fee. If you’d like to set one up, feel free to message me.
About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Our furs are 8 yrs old and have only been overnight with family. Finding Rover and Karrie S has been a blessing we have been wishing for. I knew immediately at our meet and greet that Karrie was for us. Her ultimate care and love and knowledge of dogs was so calming. We know when the furs are with her in her home, we can enjoy ourselves without worry. Side note, we love interacting with Karrie on the human level and consider her a friend.”
“Andruw helped us tremendously when our initial rover cancelled the DAY before we left. He was super helpful and communicated with us very well! Would definitely recommend booking with Andruw, we will use his services again!”
About: I am not just a pet sitter; I am a highly experienced caregiver who understands that every dog requires unique, specialized attention. Having raised and cared for my own four dogs for 25 years, I know exactly what it takes to keep a home safe, happy, and structured for multiple pets. I am fully confident and experienced in managing complex health conditions. I provide specialized care for diabetes (including strict schedules and insulin shots), seizure management, and gentle guidance for seniors experiencing Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD). From fragile 5-pound newborn puppies to independent 110-pound seniors, I understand the different handling, behavioral, and nutritional needs across all sizes and life stages. I am used to keeping up with a pack! I walked my four dogs every single day, meaning your pet will get the reliable exercise, outdoor time, and routine they thrive on. My community frequently relies on me to care for their pets because they know I treat every dog with the same level of vigilance and love as my own. I treat pet care as a core priority in my daily and weekly schedule. My routine is built around reliability and punctuality, which is crucial for pets on strict medical or feeding regimens. I dedicate my mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings entirely to pet visits, ensuring that diabetic checks, insulin shots, and senior care happen precisely on time. Because I am used to managing a busy multi-dog pack of my own, I am highly organized and adapt my weekly calendar to give your pets the consistent, dedicated time they deserve. I treat your pet exactly like a member of my own pack, offering a structured, safe, and loving environment. I follow your exact instructions down to the letter. If your diabetic pet needs breakfast and insulin at a precise hour, or if your senior cat needs specialized cognitive support at night, I am there right on time. Because of my extensive experience with seizures, diabetes, and other health issues, I am highly observant. I look out for subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits, and I know exactly how to handle medical emergencies calmly. I keep up your pet's favorite neighborhood walking routes and playtime rituals, ensuring they get the mental stimulation and physical exercise they are used to.
“Lauren was wonderful with my dog, Charlie - she accommodated his special needs and was loving and caring with him. I always know he has had good care when I come home and he’s excited to see me but is also calm and centered. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Jennifer & Julie took excellent care of Zoey. She had a great time at their place, so much so that she didn’t seem that excited to see us! They updated us regularly on how she was doing and sent plenty of pictures. Zoey will be visiting again soon.”
“I was looking for a place for my dog to stay super last minute and found Robert. He was great at doing a last minute booking! We had just adopted our abused shelter dog in December and this was his first time away from us. He was great with our boy Zorro! Robert sent lots of pictures and sent us videos of Zorro playing with his dogs. I could tell from all the pictures that Zorro was having a great time and was very comfortable. That was so reassuring because Zorro can be very shy. Robert has great communication and was super accommodating for me picking up the dog a little late. Robert loves dogs and understands them well. Whenever I go out of town I will be contacting him first because it was such a pleasant experience for our dog and us.”

“Maria has been a great help when we have been away! She is always responsive to any questions/concerns and is quick to reply. Would highly recommend to help with any cat sitting needs!”
“Alison was wonderful and patient with my doggies. She offered to come meet us before the weekend to get to know the dogs and their needs. I was able to show her how to administer meds and meals. On the days of booking, Alison followed all instructions and my pups were relaxed and happy when I retuned at the end of each day. It can be very hard to find help as a single person in a new town with senior dogs! Alison was wondeful and I would definitely book her again. I highly recommend.”
About: I lived in the Dominican Republic for 6 years and rescued ill and injured animals and had up to 11 cats at one point. I would care for them in my home until their passing. I have experience with both neonates and seniors. After moving back to the US, I have house/cat sat for some people I knew through work, mutual friends, and even from Craigslist ads. At my work, I care for 7 cats and many other (non-cat) animals.
“Jeannette was wonderful with our cat, followed all of our care instructions and was communicative throughout our entire trip. Would definitely use her services again and recommend her to others!”
“Erin was there each day as we needed and spent extra time playing with and caring fur our kitty. She was also flexible when our travel plans needed to be adjusted. We loved getting photos of him. Thank you!!”
“Skylar was extremely responsive and great to work with. My cat had some issues with her litter box while I was away, and Skylar came in on her day off to fix the problem and clean up the mess. I was so appreciative of her willingness to be flexible. Highly recommend booking with Skylar.”
About: I’ve grown up with animals my whole life, I also plan to attend college to become a veterinary technician, so I hope you will trust me with your fur-baby! I’m currently working part-time until college begins, so I’m going to be pretty open most of the week. Whenever you can’t be there, I can be for you!

About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my 3-pound Yorkie to 100-pound German Shepherds, as well as cats! I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I'll provide reliable, attentive care and treat them like they're part of my own family.
“Gloria has been absolutely amazing with my puppy Rocket! During our busy work weeks, she would pop in to get him out of his kennel, make sure he was well cared for, and always cleaned up after him. She even took the time to teach him little tricks, which was such a sweet bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares and brought him toys she thought he would like. I completely trust her with my dog, and that peace of mind means everything to me. I plan to keep booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care”
“Kelly was friendly beyond just the pet sitting, and she rushed to our house late at night when I realized I'd put the wrong start date on the request - plus she wasn't even worried about getting paid for it!”
“Alison is awesome. She went the extra mile to make sure my cat took his meds. You can tell she really cares about animals and would not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Alison!!”
About: I have had a pup of my own since he was 5 months. He’s given me lots of experience on how to house train and how to teach a dog manners amongst all the other shenanigans that comes with owning a dog. I’m also a part-time caregiver for seniors in their homes. I help assist them with daily tasks such as chores, cooking, as well as toileting and assistance with standing/sitting. This job has taught me patience and how to gently care for another as if they were my family. I’m currently a student who is also a part-time caregiver for seniors. My only class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:20am-12:20pm, and my job schedule includes whatever client I am assigned to at the time. My schedule is very open, so I am flexible! I have a fenced yard with my one dog who hangs out with me when I am home. He is house-trained and well behaved, so he does not need a crate when I am gone. Though, I am able to easily crate your pup if that is what they need. I’d love to keep your dog company during check-in’s or stays, ensuring they feel safe and are given tons of pets while you are away!
About: I’ve taken care of cats in all walks of life since I was 15 years old. From kittens to seniors, I love them all! Available for drop-in visits, where your cat is most comfortable.
About: Dog owner for 10+ years. Experience with Senior pets. When I was much younger I worked in an Animal Boarding Shelter / Vet Hospital. I was responsible for managing all pets in the boarding clinic and it was my passion and joy :) I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule to take on dog boarding. I'd love to care for your pet and they would bring alot of joy into my life too :) Pets have the utmost respect in my house and I will care for them attentively and with lots of care/concern. I had an 11yr chichuahua yorkie terrier mix (Lucy) who was my pride and joy. Lucy passed away from Cushing's disease last year but I was able to take care of her though her illness and senior years. Dogs are the absolute best and I would be so happy to care for yours!
About: I just love animals! Especially dogs and cats. They’re so fun to just hang out and take care of. I’ve been dog sitting at friend’s houses for years now. Whatever specifics you want for your animals, I’ll take care of! I am currently just living in Santa Maria. I work a good amount, but love animals. Just do this for fun! I love meeting new animals and pet sitting. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! When I am taking care of your pets, I will follow your specific rules for the animals and make sure they don’t harm themselves or others.

“This was our second day, and I was so happy to see how comfortable my dog became. She has separation anxiety, but today she wagged her tail and walked in calmly, which felt like a huge step forward. I really appreciate the patient, reassuring environment—it made a big difference for her sense of safety. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”
“Incredible service and care for our dog. Stephanie is amazing with dogs, and spent her time with Otis training him and having our dogs run around outside to get his energy out. She was so kind and responsive, we’ll continue to use her whenever we can.”
“Danielle was great with my dog Brody! Brody has anxiety and gets worried about new situations so he was anxious but no need to worry, I picked up a very happy dog! Danielle was very caring with Brody and gave him time to settle in. Thankyou so much!”
“We have fairly high need dogs and Kyle and Sara were able to meet those needs and more. The dogs had a great time with them. We received picture and text updates while they were there, which I really appreciated. I was a little nervous to leave the dogs with others, but Kyle and Sara allowed the dogs to come over for a visit before we left them. They really eased my anxiety and I will be very comfortable leaving them for longer in the future. Thank you!”
“Krystal is super nice and experienced. Casper felt comfortable from the start, I left feeling good about where I left my boy for the day. When I picked him up he was in good spirits, very happy with the outcome of this experience!!”
About: I've cared for pets of all sizes and personalities, from my own 3 pound Yorkie to 100 pound German Shepherds, as well as cats! I know every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I'll provide reliable, attentive care and treat them like they're part of my own family. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I'm currently attending college online, which means I'm home most of the day and have a very flexible schedule. I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! Since I'm home, your pet will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. I live in an apartment, but we have a fenced dog area where pets can safely get outside time and enjoy some play. I also take dogs on daily walks to help them stay active and happy. I have a friendly dog of my own who loves having a companion around, but I always make sure to respect each pet’s individual personality and comfort level. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on keeping their routine as normal as possible :)
About: I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel as relaxed and at home as possible while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing in a cozy spot, I'll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so active dogs will have opportunities for exercise, while more laid-back pups can enjoy a calm and peaceful environment. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and daily routines so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to create a positive experience that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable coming back again. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. My own dog is an important part of our family, so caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. Whether your dog enjoys being active or prefers a calm environment, I'll make sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need while staying as close as possible to their normal routine. I only accept the number of pets I can comfortably care for so that each one receives the attention, love, and supervision they deserve. If your little guy stay over he will have access to all my own has access to which is ALL AREAS of the home. We have a sunroom that has a doggie door as well which they can come in and out, i have a fence backyard. At night time they would sleep indoors or in the sunroom with the doggie door closed for the night.
“Gloria’s home was the perfect fit for my dog to spend his day. He had treats, walks, and other pups to play with. She was such a great communicator. From sending pics to asking clarifying questions about his needs - I just knew she cared about him as if he were her own. At the end of the day, that’s what you’re looking for!”
“Cary did a great job looking after Brody! We enjoyed the meet and greet and walk with Frank. Cary listened to me about Brody’s needs and his anxiety. Brody spent all day at Cary’s home and when I collected Brody he was a calm and happy dog. Thanks so much!”
“Thanks to Rover, I have found a fantastic sitter for my dog. Suzette has watched ‘Pepper’ for me, numerous times. I appreciate her timely responses, flexibility with scheduling and most importantly...I know that Pepper is well taken care of!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals ever since getting my first cat at the age of 4. Her name was muffin and she was all grey. I have never been without a pet since then.

I take pride in my experiences and love of animals. I am currently a stay at home mom so I have several hours of free time during the day. As both kids go to school. Three times a week I clean at a gymnasium for 3 hours but other than that, I am mostly available all hours until 4pm when child activities began. I have blocks of time between 4pm-9pm on weekdays, navigating around children's sports and weekends are typically completely open.

I grew up on a ranch and have cared for many different animals over the years. I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with blind and deaf dogs as well. I have one dog that is 5 years old. He is fun and loving. He is a medium size dog who would love a playmate on the weekends! I often take my dog to the dog park or to the beach for walks and play. Your best friend would be safe and have lots of love here. If you’d like more information just ask. I am available weekends and some afternoons/evenings. I offer doggy day care or overnight care as well. Let me know what your pets needs are. I have a fenced grassy back yard with shade. Pets are also allowed in my house. If your pet sleeps in a crate I can do that or if they sleep on the couch or a bed I can do that as well. I am flexible with their needs.
About: I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats for over 30 years and have also fostered kittens for the animal shelter that I later adopted. I am a substitute teacher during the regular school year and am otherwise a DoorDash driver. I would work my schedule around what you need. My cats stay indoors and my 2 dogs love hanging out on our front enclosed porch or lounging inside. They all get along quite well.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have always watched dogs for all my friends and family! I love having dogs around as it’s never a dull moment in the house! I currently work remote so I am always home and and ready to care for your fur babies! I currently work remote so I am home all day. My work schedule is 8am-5:30pm and I exercise by walking the riverbed by my house so it’s perfect for me and the pups! I have a fenced yard and a twelve year old beagle mix who loves to meet new friends! When I dog sit for friends or family, I set up a spot for them in my room and my pup in a separate room so they can have their space. I’m not a huge fan of leaving pups in the garage (unless requested) so they will always have a spot with me I their own bed!
About: I've had the gift of house/pet sitting for over 10 years, and it is without a doubt the most rewarding job I've ever experienced! Personally, I've had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, horses, and hermit crabs as pets, besides the odd rescued baby bird, bunny, or mouse. On top of cats, dogs, and fish, I've had the opportunity to care for alpacas, an African grey parrot, and saltwater fish/reefs, while pet sitting. Every animal I encounter has its own identity and temperament, which is always fun and interesting to observe and base my care on. I feel like such a winner when I get a standoffish animal to trust me! Throughout my life I've had an array of animals to bond with, though for a long period recently we had just one cat. Mournfully, a few years ago, my dad and I had to part with our beloved Stevie. She was our close companion for over 15 years, and I still miss her immensely. Her quirks and routines still cross my mind, which brings all the things that made her unique and lovable up into my heart. Pet sitting warms my heart, and definitely fills the need that I still have for animal companionship (but without the heartbreak). Pet sitting is a way for me to have the joy of loving and caring for a pet in an empathetic way: in their own home, on their own schedule, stepping into their owner's (figurative) shoes for a bit, to make *everyone* more comfortable. Time and again, it's proven to be the best way I've found to give personalized care to precious pets, and allow owners to truly enjoy their time away. My part-time library job offers me a lot of flexibility, leaving me the opportunity to do more of what I love. Traveling, exploring new areas, experiencing new food, going to music events, working out/walking, spiritual activities, and creative endeavors have a place in my life because of this balance. Of course that also includes one of the most rewarding ways to punctuate my life: house and pet sitting! I base my care around the individual needs of the pet and owner! Pets LOVE their routines, so I typically live in harmony with their modus operandi, on balance with my part-time engagements.
About: I have decidedly taken the entire summer off from a corporate job to recalibrate myself. With that being said, my time has opened up to provide the sweetest care for your pets. I have my own two dogs that I've loved and raised for the last 13 years. I have been with them through their puppy training, medical needs as they've gotten older, and become versed with the emotional labor that comes with owning aging pets. I am also an amateur photographer so you will absolutely be receiving a great number of photos of your pets while under my care. I have decidedly taken the entire summer off from corporate work, so I have the availability to provide pet support with the fullest of care and attention. I have my own two dogs that I've loved and raised for the last 13 years. I have been with them through their puppy training, medical needs as they've gotten older, and become versed with the emotional labor that comes with owning aging pets.
About: I have been a pet care giver for 24 dogs, 6 cats, some fish and farm animals. I have always grown up around many animals wether its little dogs, big dogs, cats, pigs, goats and bunnies! I absolutely love all animals, especially the big ones. I have done pet sitting, walking and administering medication for 5 years for animals other than my own. I work part-time, a few hours 3 days a week. My schedule is very flexible and I have plenty of availability for your furry friends. The day's I work I am home by 1-2pm and I have the weekends off to spend time with your animals. I have a fenced in acre for your pets to roam and enjoy. There is lots of turf, dirt and shade for our furry friends to run, play and rest. I have a friendly 3 year old golden doodle who loves to play and keep other furry friends company. I have a spacious and cozy room for overnight stayers and can crate if needed.
About: I just love animals! Especially dogs and cats. They’re so fun to just hang out and take care of. I’ve been dog sitting at friend’s houses for years now. Whatever specifics you want for your animals, I’ll take care of! I am currently just living in Santa Maria. I work a good amount, but love animals. Just do this for fun! I love meeting new animals and pet sitting. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out! When I am taking care of your pets, I will follow your specific rules for the animals and make sure they don’t harm themselves or others.
About: I have had a pup of my own since he was 5 months. He’s given me lots of experience on how to house train and how to teach a dog manners amongst all the other shenanigans that comes with owning a dog. I’m also a part-time caregiver for seniors in their homes. I help assist them with daily tasks such as chores, cooking, as well as toileting and assistance with standing/sitting. This job has taught me patience and how to gently care for another as if they were my family. I’m currently a student who is also a part-time caregiver for seniors. My only class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:20am-12:20pm, and my job schedule includes whatever client I am assigned to at the time. My schedule is very open, so I am flexible! I have a fenced yard with my one dog who hangs out with me when I am home. He is house-trained and well behaved, so he does not need a crate when I am gone. Though, I am able to easily crate your pup if that is what they need. I’d love to keep your dog company during check-in’s or stays, ensuring they feel safe and are given tons of pets while you are away!
About: I am a licensed Vet Tech who recently moved to the area. I have 10 years of experience working with a variety of animals in a clinical setting. Also, I have always had pets growing up as well. I can help you with anything from exercising your animal, boarding or even administering medications. I am new to the area and I currently have open availability. I have a dog of my own, but I am able to manage caring for your pet as well as my own. I have a fenced yard and a dog who loves to play. I can stay at your house or even have your pet stay over if needed. I currently live with my parents who are able to care for my dog if your pet needs more alone time. I can accommodate to whatever your pet needs.
About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia

“Kyle and Sara took such good care of our boy!! We received daily updates and pictures of his activities while we were gone. We are so thankful we have someone to leave him with when we travel that treats him so well!”
“This was our first time using Rover and I’m thankful that our first time was with Marin. She made us feel at ease throughout the time she had our puppy. She didn’t give up when he struggled on his first night and she made him feel comfortable throughout the rest of his stay.”
About: I’m a pet parent to 3 cats and 1 dog, and over the years I’ve worked with multiple trainers to better understand animal behavior and communication. I’ve also volunteered at shelters, where I learned how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and support animals with patience and compassion. I love my own fur babies deeply, and I’ll care for yours with the same level of love, respect, and attention. If pricing is a concern, feel free to message me I’m always open to discussing options. Additionally, I am open to chickens, reptiles, and other pets. I work remotely, so I’m able to spend most of the day with your fur baby. For overnight stays, I may need a few short breaks during the day, and we can go over what works best for your pet during our meet‑and‑greet. I love being outdoors, and there’s no better company than a furry friend by my side. I’m available for walks and check‑ins Monday through Friday, as well as weekends and overnight stays. If you’d like to set up a meet‑and‑greet, feel free to message me. I make it a priority to communicate with you about your pet’s individual needs so every detail is understood and every comfort is met. I also take time to learn about any stresses, triggers, or special routines your fur baby may have. I usually recommend a meet‑and‑greet either in person or over Zoom to go over your pet’s daily schedule, since keeping their routine consistent helps reduce stress while you’re away. Every pet is unique, and this meeting allows us to cover everything thoroughly. The first meet‑and‑greet is free; any additional meetings may include a small fee. If you’d like to set one up, feel free to message me.

“Andruw helped us tremendously when our initial rover cancelled the DAY before we left. He was super helpful and communicated with us very well! Would definitely recommend booking with Andruw, we will use his services again!”
“Lauren was wonderful with my dog, Charlie - she accommodated his special needs and was loving and caring with him. I always know he has had good care when I come home and he’s excited to see me but is also calm and centered. Thank you, Lauren!”
“Jennifer & Julie took excellent care of Zoey. She had a great time at their place, so much so that she didn’t seem that excited to see us! They updated us regularly on how she was doing and sent plenty of pictures. Zoey will be visiting again soon.”
“I was looking for a place for my dog to stay super last minute and found Robert. He was great at doing a last minute booking! We had just adopted our abused shelter dog in December and this was his first time away from us. He was great with our boy Zorro! Robert sent lots of pictures and sent us videos of Zorro playing with his dogs. I could tell from all the pictures that Zorro was having a great time and was very comfortable. That was so reassuring because Zorro can be very shy. Robert has great communication and was super accommodating for me picking up the dog a little late. Robert loves dogs and understands them well. Whenever I go out of town I will be contacting him first because it was such a pleasant experience for our dog and us.”
“So thankful we found Maddison! She had amazing communication from our first message to drop off. Remi looked so happy in all the photos she sent. She went above and beyond to make sure our girl was welcome taken care of. We will definitely use Maddison again in the future.”
“Niccola was very accommodating to a last minute request. Aspen seemed to have had a great time playing her dogs. Would be happy to rebook with her next time I’m in the area!”
“Miki was great! I would highly recommend her. I really like that she boarded my dog only, as she has two small dogs of her own. Miki gave me daily updates on how Annie was doing and sent me lots of pictures and videos through the Rover app. I would definitely use her again. Her two young daughters and husband were very sweet too! They took really good care of my precious girl.”
“Echo had another wonderful stay with Aty! I had zero worries while I was at a quarterly training out of town. Echo always has so much fun and he even got a bath before pickup. 10/10!”
