“We have never really left Bella with anyone besides close friends or family and Petra really made us feel comfortable. We loved that she sent us pictures and videos of Bella while we were gone.

About: I have a 5 year old lab who is friendly and caring. I love to take care of dogs and provide service for dog parents who need help taking care of their loved ones. I have a pet and i take care of him daily so pet care is part off my daily routine and life and I love it. I will take care of the pet in our home and have a 3000 sqft backyard where the pets can play and have fun time
“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Great experience with Jatin. He provided plenty of updates on my pup and he was very happy with his visit and made lots of friends thanks to Jatin. Kept him on a set schedule for food and play. There was a lot of photo updates!”
“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”
“I had a wonderful experience with Dipanjana and felt completely at ease leaving my dog in her care. She was attentive, communicative, and clearly genuinely cared about making my dog feel comfortable and happy. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. I truly appreciated her professionalism and kindness throughout the stay. I would absolutely trust her with my dog again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Could not be more happy with her services. I have never been away from my dog more than a few days. But I was traveling oversea and was very worried about leaving my little guy in a kennel for that long. A friend suggested I find a dog sitter. I found that Kimberly not only had many positive reviews, but also had a lot of returning clients. From now on I will be one of those clients. My dog gets a little bit of an upset stomach now and then and the vet said he needs to take a pro-biotic once a day. Kimberly not only did this, she updated me daily about him and sent pictures. He was so happy playing around with her own dog. My dog might as well have been her own. Thank you, SO much!!”
“I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Yolanda for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I could tell my pup was in great hands. Yolanda was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dog. I got regular updates, adorable photos, and total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Yolanda made it feel effortless. I came home to a calm, happy dog—and that says it all. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about animals, I can't recommend Yolanda enough!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous about leaving our dog Jack with someone new—but Stasha was amazing! She went above and beyond, treating Jack with so much kindness and patience, especially since he’s an older pup. She took him on walks, gave him plenty of time to relax and soak up the sun, and communicated with us every step of the way. We really appreciated her transparency and how she always checked in before trying new activities with him. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience!”
“Absolutely wonderful experience! Our dog was very well cared for and came home happy, comfortable, and relaxed. The communication was great, and we felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. We would definitely book again and highly recommend! ❤️”
“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”
“Michael and Mindy took wonderful care of our dog, Sophie. They treated her as their own. They sent us pictures and updates every day while we were gone. They are our number 1 choice when we need a sitter. We highly recommend them.”
“Michelle & Michael are awesome! They are both super nice, attentive, communicative, and took amazing care of our pup. We got regular updates on his activities throughout the day (which our family loved), and they kept him active and well loved his entire stay. Thank you both for looking after Doughy so well and we’ll definitely look them up the next time we need a sitter.”

As the owner of Icyshappypets, my priority is creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment that helps cats feel secure while their parents are away.

About: I've taken care of animals since I've graduated high-school. I'm an animal lover and have taken care of the smallest animals to the biggest. I am willing to go the extra mile for your babies and give plenty of updates. I currently work part-time, allowing me to offer overnight stays as well as morning walks and morning and evening feedings. If your pet requires additional care during the day, I can also accommodate drop-in visits. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I do my best to keep their routine familiar, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. I provide care in my clients' homes to help pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. During the first few days, I make an effort to spend extra time with your pet to build trust, learn their routine, and help them feel secure while you're away. I follow all feeding, exercise, and medication instructions carefully and maintain a clean, safe environment. I prioritize your pet's well-being by providing companionship, regular potty breaks, exercise, and plenty of attention while respecting your home's rules and routines. For overnight stays, I ensure pets have consistency, comfort, and supervision throughout the evening and morning.
“Sara did a great job on a last-minute request. Our original sitter had to unexpectedly cancel and Sara stepped in and saved us! As usual they handled my two felines with care and compassion. Them was able to manage Leo's new medication and all the other details of the drop in visits.”
“We met Tiali for the first time today in preparation for an upcoming house sit with our dog and 3 chickens. She asked great questions and is clearly engaged and thinking how to best meet our needs and expectations. I have a good feeling about the upcoming week!”
“Samantha took great care of our kitties and was extremely professional, caring, and responsive. This was our first booking with Samantha and we would recommend her to anyone in need of a drop-in visit. Thank you again Samantha!”
“Meghan was wonderful. While my husband and I were traveling, she kept us updated with pics and how our two cats were doing. Our babies mean everything to us and it was such a relief to see that they were comfortable with her. When we got back from our travels we were pleased to see our home left in great condition and my babies were safe. Thank you Meghan!”
About: Over 20 years as a dog owner. I'm semi-retired. I've been watching friends' and friends of friends' pets for years. I've been the only house/dog sitter for a pair of Dalmatians for the last 5 years. I've handled puppies that are still working on becoming housebroken as well as senior dogs that need regular medication and extra care. I do in-home tech support/ IT work. When a customer's animals have warmed up to me, I've been asked if I did pet sitting as well. It feels good when the pet picks you. My working schedule is very flexible, I'm usuably able to adjust it to make sure I'm available to see to your pet's needs. If I commit to caring for your critters they will be my scheduling priority. I don't have pets in my own home. When house/pet sitting, besides feeding, walking and picking up after the pets I'm capable of handling household issues that might come up.
“I hired Quynh to take care of my senior cat! She did a great job! She is very nice, reliable, and professional! I super recommend her to take care of your fur baby :)”
“Wow. She is so amazing. The cat whisperer. I was so happy to see a video of both my kitties even the one who usually doesn’t make an appearance when a stranger is at the door. The videos she sent were good for my heart. It’s so nice to have someone to trust them with when we are gone.”

“Jerry was amazing with my feline beasts. She has excellent communication, provided me with videos and pics with each visit along with a brief summary of the visit.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Gilroy
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Jennifer and her Family (human and fur) are a fantastic fit for Cleo. She is a high energy dog and comes home fully exhausted from her playdates with Jennifer, Rosey and their team! My husband told me it was the "perfect fit" for Cleo and us!”
“Great experience .. really nice place and caring sitters. I was updated with pics of my pup having fun and I felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with Valary's I will definitely book with her again when I need a reliable and caring sitter.”
“It was such a delight for my chihuahua mix Maui to stay with Dipanjana and her husband and her cute dog Kulfi for the first time! Dipanjana was very proactive and thoughtful in preparing us for our first day care visit, letting Maui get familiarized with her dog and home, ahead of our daycare appointment, which I appreciated immensely since my dog has separation anxiety. She is relaxed and easy with communication and with Maui to make him feel at home like letting him sniff around, play with toys, or sit on her lap. She was also very on top of it with any instructions I had for his stay. Her home and neighborhood are also very clean and comfortable. It was so great to see Maui in pic updates and in good spirits when I picked him up and I look forward to another stay in the future soon!”
About: Serving Aromas and surrounding area. As a lifelong animal lover with more than 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, horses, emus, chickens, and even a feral cat colony, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, and individualized care. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment where your dog or cat can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. Located on three beautiful acres in Aromas, California, my property offers a peaceful park-like setting with plenty of room to explore safely. Safety is my highest priority, and dogs are never left unattended outdoors. Every guest receives attentive supervision, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's stay may include walks, nature hikes, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and, for suitable dogs, adventures to local beaches and trails. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, I tailor care to their individual personality and needs. Inside, dogs and cats enjoy a spacious 2,800-square-foot home where they are welcomed as members of the family. They can lounge on comfortable furniture, sleep on the bed if permitted by their owners, or rest in their own crate if that is their normal routine. I share my home with my gentle 11-year-old pit bull, who gets along well with dogs, cats, and the farm animals on the property. Because I value safety and positive experiences for every guest, I carefully evaluate compatibility and strive to create a calm, stress-free environment. When your dog stays with me, they're not staying in a kennel—they're joining a home filled with love, experience, and genuine respect for animals. My goal is for both you and your dog to enjoy complete peace of mind, knowing your family member is safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your dog or cat. I'm semi-retired and take advantage of our beautiful central coast daily, either walking, hiking, or playing on the beach. We start our day in the morning with a nice sniff, play, or zoomie time on the property. After breakfast we'll do a walk on the beach, a hike (depending on your pet) or playtime on the property. My dog is getting older so he's usually good for about 3 miles and can't really do strenuous hikes. He loves the beach so we also take a late morning beach walk. Aromas also has a lovely dog park now, so if your pup is social that's a fun place to go. For more athletic dogs, there are some incredible hiking trails in this area. Afternoon chores start normally around 5, when I walk the property and feed and check on my goats and emus. This is more play time for your fur baby, as we watch the sunset and settle in for the night. Where does your pet sleep? They are welcome on the furniture or my bed. I also have extra dog beds for those pets who like their space. I have a completely fenced yard with plenty of space to roam. With the exception of a couple of 2-3 hour windows 2 to 3 days per week, your pet is never alone. I do have stairs so if your pet needs help going up and down, I will block the stairs so there are no accidents.
“Luna had a great time with Huy. He took her on walks, let her play with another dog after introducing them, and took her to the dog park across the street from his house. We would definitely use Huy again.”
“Holly was super communicative and easy to work with. Lots of great pics of my pups having a good time, would definitely recommend her to anyone who needs a safe place for their pups to hangout”
“We decided last minute not to bring our 16month old pup to the family's Christmas Eve gathering. Tracey was quick to respond throughout the whole experience- from initial booking to picking up. Will definitely reach out to Tracey again the next time we're visiting family in Gilroy area!”
“I highly recommend JD if you need doggy daycare in his area. JD Is compassionate and very knowledgeable in canine behavior . My dog was well cared for at her stay. I would use his services again if we’re in the area.”

Dogs are part of my everyday life — my schedule naturally revolves around walks, feeding times, play sessions, and quiet rest breaks.

“Honestly one of the best walkers we’ve ever had. Timely, communicative and understanding. One of our doggos is a rescue and has trust issues, so it can be challenging for new people to walk him. Sandi, however, has been incredibly patient with him and seems to have earned his trust. You won’t regret booking her!”
“I can’t recommend her enough! She is incredibly sweet, reliable, and genuinely cares about Coco’s happiness and well-being. She always arrives on time and goes above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and loved. Coco is always so happy after their walks, and that says everything. Im so grateful to have her!”
About: Hi pet parents! My name is Tiali and I am a UC Davis graduate with my degree in Entomology and Animal Biology. I have over 10 years of experience working with animals, including reptiles, amphibians, birds, and both exotic and domestic mammals. I have worked as a vet tech and have previously worked at the UC Davis Campus Veterinary Services, UC Davis Veterinary Rehab Center, Sacramento Wildlife Care Association, and the San Francisco Zoo in their Animal Resource Center (where I have learned how to clean enclosures, prepare diets, properly handle, and train over twenty species of exotic animals). I have also previously worked as a PetsHotel associate in PetSmart where I was responsible for monitoring Doggy Day Camp with an average of 20 dogs per group, caring for boarding dogs, leading individual sessions with dogs, and caring for boarding cats. Not only do I have extensive first-hand experience with pet care, but I also have research experience involving animal behavior, training in raptor handling, and have been a dog owner my entire life. I currently have 5 cats of my own and several other pets (all insects, reptiles, and amphibians)! I can’t wait to meet your furbabies when you book with me! I work graveyard so my schedule is super, super flexible during the day. This allows me to easily accommodate you and your pets’ schedule based on their needs! Safety and trust are two of the most important things to me when caring for pets. For a pet to feel safe, I always take my time when greeting them for the first time, getting down to their level, and not making any sudden sounds or movements that may come across as a threat to the pet. This ensures an initial formation of trust between me and the pet. Following pet parent instructions is also essential and I make sure to be aware of the pet's needs and their preferred routine so I can make them feel as comfortable as possible. Additionally, I am a very vigilant person and am always keeping an eye on the pet I am caring for, to ensure their environment is safe and free of any hazards and the pet continues to be healthy and happy.

About: Hi there! I’m Yolanda, a dedicated and loving pet sitter with a passion for giving your furry family members the same care and comfort they get at home. I know how much your pets mean to you — because they mean just as much to me! ✨ Why You’ll Love Leaving Your Pet With Me: • 🏡 Home Away From Home: Whether it’s cuddles on the couch, long walks, or playtime in the yard, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and loved every moment you’re away. • 🕒 Reliable & Flexible: I take pride in my punctuality and excellent communication. Updates and adorable photos? You’ll get them daily! • 🐶 All Pets Welcome: From energetic puppies to senior sweethearts needing meds, I’m experienced with pets of all ages and personalities. • 💚 Safety First: I treat every pet like my own — lots of love, but also the highest attention to safety, routine, and your instructions. ✨ A Little About Me: Animals have been a huge part of my life for 35+ years. I grew up with dog’s, cat’s and cows, and I’ve cared for everything from shy rescue pups to playful kittens and even senior dogs with special needs. Morning starts with feeding time and a quick check to make sure they’re healthy and comfortable. If I have a dog, there’s that refreshing morning walk — a chance for both of us to stretch our legs and breathe in the day ahead. If it’s a cat, maybe it’s a playful moment or just sharing a quiet breakfast together while they curl up nearby. I take pet care seriously and always treat animals with the same love and attention I’d want for my own. In my daily routine, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. I stick to feeding schedules, provide plenty of fresh water, and keep their living areas clean and tidy.
About: I’ve owned dogs for over 10 years and currently have 3 of my own. Over the years I’ve become experienced in caring for dogs with special needs. I love that I can be that voice for them. I currently work Sun-Wed but available if you need a weekend off or you even just need a day to run errands. I’ll be glad to take care of your pet. I have a fenced yard as well as crates if needed. I do have 3 other dogs that just chill all day which one has special needs. There is also an influx of toys that they can choose from.
About: We’ve had dogs in our family for 10 plus years. We feed, bathe, and walk pets. We love to help with neighbors pets while away. We are home all weekend and enjoy having extra friends. We have kids who enjoy helping with the dogs outside playing and bathing and freezing. We have a home with a large fenced in backyard. We are close to parks where we can walk the dogs. We have a large dog door for access outside.
About: I’ve taken care of family and friend’s dogs and cats: for 2 years now. Often times I would have their dogs stay with me. I kept them safe, cleaned, fed, and happy with play time and walks. I also have spent time with cats, doing drop-in visits, and feeding them. In addition I have an 11 year old cockapoo, so I can confidently say I have experience with animals and dogs that are different breeds and ages. I enjoy being around friendly animals. I’m currently off of school for the summer, so I’ll have lots of free time to take care of any friendly cats or dogs, happily! I enjoy taking morning walks with my dog, and would love to share this experience with other dogs! I am an owner to an 11 year old cockapoo who has a unique personality. I can confidently say I have great experience with taking care of pets. In addition I’ve taken care of 4 other dogs with different personalities and breeds, so I’ve gotten the hang of being adaptable. I offer dog walking and check-in services, providing exercise and care. Your pet will receive personalized attention, ensuring their happiness and well-being while you're away. I make sure your pet is well-fed, has water for hydration, and is being taken out for walks, bathroom breaks, and provided play time. I think it’s important for dogs to let out their energy, as storing energy can cause anxiety. In my eyes your dogs, are your children, and during my time and visits, they are my number one priority!

“Holly was absolutely amazing. Me and my fiance dropped off Maggie not knowing what to expect but she had a blast with plenty of room to run and sniff. We got multiple pictures every day especially super cute ones. I cannot sing her praise enough this was absolutely amazing and 11/10 would recommend.”
“Great experience with Jatin. He provided plenty of updates on my pup and he was very happy with his visit and made lots of friends thanks to Jatin. Kept him on a set schedule for food and play. There was a lot of photo updates!”
“My husky, Koda, had a fantastic time with Valentina & Stephen and their dog Luke. He ran and played in their gigantic, beautiful yard, got lots of attention and cuddles and was taken to the park and restaurants with them. They took excellent care of Koda I can't recommend Val and Stephen more highly. I've already booked another stay for Koda!”
“I just wanted to give a huge shoutout to Yolanda for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away! 🐾❤️ From the moment we met, I could tell my pup was in great hands. Yolanda was not only professional and reliable but also incredibly kind, patient, and loving with my dog. I got regular updates, adorable photos, and total peace of mind knowing my dog was happy, safe, and well cared for. It’s never easy leaving your pet behind, but Yolanda made it feel effortless. I came home to a calm, happy dog—and that says it all. If you're looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely passionate about animals, I can't recommend Yolanda enough!”
“This was our first time using Rover, and we were a little nervous about leaving our dog Jack with someone new—but Stasha was amazing! She went above and beyond, treating Jack with so much kindness and patience, especially since he’s an older pup. She took him on walks, gave him plenty of time to relax and soak up the sun, and communicated with us every step of the way. We really appreciated her transparency and how she always checked in before trying new activities with him. We couldn’t have asked for a better first experience!”
“Angelina was an Angel and a life saver. I booked last minute and she responded immediately. Angelina was pleasant and very sweet. When meeting Onyx and Blue she asked all the right questions in order to provide the best care for my fur babies. Angelina sent pictures and kept me updated on all my babies activities. If you want your fur baby to be in a nurturing, safe, and fun home, Angelina is the caregiver for you.”
“Michelle & Michael are awesome! They are both super nice, attentive, communicative, and took amazing care of our pup. We got regular updates on his activities throughout the day (which our family loved), and they kept him active and well loved his entire stay. Thank you both for looking after Doughy so well and we’ll definitely look them up the next time we need a sitter.”
“Sabrina did a fantastic job of looking after Mili, our 8 year golden retriever while we were away for the weekend. She was always responsive and sent updates/pictures everyday. Mili had a great time and we will definitely use Sabrina’s services the next time we need a sitter.”
“David was a fantastic caregiver for our dog during our month long overseas trip. We were incredibly impressed with his dedication, reliability and attention to our pet's well-being. He ensured our dog got plenty of exercise with daily walks, play time and seemed to genuinely enjoy his company. We were impressed by David’s consistent communication; his almost daily updates with photos were reassuring. It was evident that our dog was happy and comfortable in David’s home. We were especially pleased to see how David helped our dog socialize with other dogs, which was a great benefit. We highly recommend David as a responsible and loving pet sitter.”
“Debra did a great job of making us and our dog, Skye, feel welcome. She sent us daily updates with pictures of Skye with her family or out taking walks. She was a last minute provider for us as our usual care person was not available for the dates we needed. She only keeps one guest dog at a time. Skye and her dog, Ginger, got along well.”
“Many thanks Lori! We have never seen our dog happy in other places, especially boarding kennels. We are happy and satisfied with your boarding services. We cannot thank you enough. Our dog stayed in a safe and wonderful place. Top dog boarding sitter!”
“Nicole was amazing! Our dog (Loki) was happy and tail wagging when we came to pick him up. Pics and great communication throughout the visit. Loki can’t wait to hang out with his new friend again!”
“Mateo, his family, and their dogs are THE BEST! My dog, Jacques, did an extended stat with them, and he was treated like family! I received regular updates and enjoyed watching the videos of Jacques having a blast with their digs. I’m am so grateful for the care they provided for my sweet boy. ❤️”
About: Serving Aromas and surrounding area. As a lifelong animal lover with more than 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, horses, emus, chickens, and even a feral cat colony, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, and individualized care. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and enriching environment where your dog or cat can relax, play, and feel at home while you're away. Located on three beautiful acres in Aromas, California, my property offers a peaceful park-like setting with plenty of room to explore safely. Safety is my highest priority, and dogs are never left unattended outdoors. Every guest receives attentive supervision, plenty of exercise, and lots of affection throughout the day. Your dog's stay may include walks, nature hikes, supervised outdoor play, enrichment activities, cuddle time, and, for suitable dogs, adventures to local beaches and trails. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet place to relax, I tailor care to their individual personality and needs. Inside, dogs and cats enjoy a spacious 2,800-square-foot home where they are welcomed as members of the family. They can lounge on comfortable furniture, sleep on the bed if permitted by their owners, or rest in their own crate if that is their normal routine. I share my home with my gentle 11-year-old pit bull, who gets along well with dogs, cats, and the farm animals on the property. Because I value safety and positive experiences for every guest, I carefully evaluate compatibility and strive to create a calm, stress-free environment. When your dog stays with me, they're not staying in a kennel—they're joining a home filled with love, experience, and genuine respect for animals. My goal is for both you and your dog to enjoy complete peace of mind, knowing your family member is safe, happy, and cared for as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your dog or cat. I'm semi-retired and take advantage of our beautiful central coast daily, either walking, hiking, or playing on the beach. We start our day in the morning with a nice sniff, play, or zoomie time on the property. After breakfast we'll do a walk on the beach, a hike (depending on your pet) or playtime on the property. My dog is getting older so he's usually good for about 3 miles and can't really do strenuous hikes. He loves the beach so we also take a late morning beach walk. Aromas also has a lovely dog park now, so if your pup is social that's a fun place to go. For more athletic dogs, there are some incredible hiking trails in this area. Afternoon chores start normally around 5, when I walk the property and feed and check on my goats and emus. This is more play time for your fur baby, as we watch the sunset and settle in for the night. Where does your pet sleep? They are welcome on the furniture or my bed. I also have extra dog beds for those pets who like their space. I have a completely fenced yard with plenty of space to roam. With the exception of a couple of 2-3 hour windows 2 to 3 days per week, your pet is never alone. I do have stairs so if your pet needs help going up and down, I will block the stairs so there are no accidents.
“I would highly recommend Anusha as a pet sitter! She took care of my doggie while I was on vacation with my family and I didn't have to worry about a thing. She sent us a lot of pictures, videos, and regular updates that made me feel at ease that my doggie was in great hands and enjoying himself. She was able to cater to my dog's specific personality and make him feel at home which I truly appreciate.”
