“I was very nervous about leaving Mochi with anyone but I had zero doubts from the minute I arrived at Anna’s home to drop off. From the beginning of the booking process with Anna, I felt as though I was leaving my pet with someone who would take great care of her. Anna kept me updated about Mochi during her stay, alleviated any of my concerns, reassured me during the whole process and my Mochi seemed to have a great time with her puppy friends. If you are looking for someone to care for your fur baby, look no further once you find Anna.”
“This is our second time booking with Maribel. She gave us daily updates and sent us tons of photos. Our dogs love her and she took great care of them. I think I found my permanent dog sitter. 11/10 would recommend!”
“Shanna was absolutely amazing! I am new to Bakersfield having recently moved from NC and had never used Rover before let alone an in home sitter. We have always used cage free, free play boarding facilities in NC - so this made me a bit nervous. From the start Shanna was absolutely great with explaining the process, reassuring, and during the meet & greet Aurora felt right at home. Aurora usually returns back a little stressed from any boarding experience but she was in such a happy and excited mood when we picked her up. We will use Shanna any time we need a dog sitter going forward, I can't say enough great things about the experience!”
“Nalani was great with Gerald! I had to reschedule for a last minute boarding and she was able to take him in and make sure he was safe and happy! Will definitely be sticking with rover as my boarding whenever I am in need of a sitter for my dog.”
“Ana is the best! I'm forever grateful for her. She took care of my 16 yr. old baby for a week. Ana and her family treated her like their own!!! She sent me pictures & updated me. I truly knew my baby was the best care possible!!”
“Sidney is AMAZING!!!! She took such loving care of ours boys while we were out of town. She cared for them as if they were her own pets and sent me plenty of pictures and videos. We will be using her again for our next dog-sitting needs!”
“Adriana is the best pet sitter I have ever known. She spoils my dog, gives him treats, and bathes him before I pick him up. I would highly recommend Adriana for any of your pet care needs.”
“Esmeralda was very attentive to our girl and always kept us updated on her care. We felt very comfortable and at ease during her time with our precious baby. I highly recommend her.”
“Took great care of my dog and went above and beyond for her. I got lots of pictures of the fun times they were having and my dog came home happy and tired from all the playing. Highly recommend”
“Whitney was outstanding watching mine and my husband’s fur baby June! She constantly sent updates and pictures and even took our June on a walk. June loved her, I don’t feel comfortable leaving our baby with anyone but Whitney has definitely became the exception! She was amazing and I will be using her again. My husband and I both recommend her to all our family and friends. She is very attentive to our puppy and made sure she was well taken care of. Definitely had a great experience!”
“I am so appreciative of Breanna! She was great with my fur baby! She made sure both me and my dog were comfortable, safe, and happy! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates! Breanna was amazing with learning the needs of my pup and tending to them!”
“I was a little uneasy leaving our 3month puppy just because we never left shadow anywhere before. But Shyla was great and sent photos and video of shadow playing and just being free! I love he got to have a big backyard yard to roam and play with her other dogs. He didn't want to leave! 😆 Will definitely rebook, and will be dropping shadow off from time to time just for day care. Book this lovely family for your fur-babies!!”
“Stephanie did a great job caring for our dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving them with her. She was very responsive and sent me updates with pics. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!!”

About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

Ensuring your pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable in their own home is my absolute top priority. When staying at your place or doing drop-in visits, I maintain your pet's exact daily routine to prevent any anxiety, treating your home with the utmost respect and cleanliness.

Plus, I love keeping you close to your furry best friends by sending frequent photo and video updates throughout the day, so you can have total peace of mind while you are away!

About: I’ve always had pets growing up. For a majority of my childhood, I had four dogs (three chihuahuas and a golden labrador) and two birds (a cockatiel and indian ring neck). When I moved out, I brought two dogs and a bird with me and took care of them as they aged. I have spent years volunteering for an animal shelter and I have experience giving medications and taking care of animals in general. I am a third year medical student so currently my schedule is a little bit crazy. I’d still love to help out with your pet so let me know and I will try to make it work! Safety and trust are very important to me. I will take every precaution to ensure your pet is as safe as possible. I value communication and will let you know if I have any questions or concerns regarding your animal.
About: I’ve volunteered at the shelters for several years. I participated in their cruising canines program that had me take a shelter pup out weekly for a few hours to burn energy. This includes going for walks, swimming, going to get a puppacino or just cruising in the car and wind surfing! I’ve taken all dog sizes and am physically fit enough to take on larger dogs. I’ve had animals of my own since I was 7 years old. This included ducks, pigs, dogs, cats and geese! I currently have 3 dogs of my own. I love any chance to meet new animals! I live a very active lifestyle and fitness is a huge part of my daily routine. I have 4 dogs of my own and understand how a pet is more than just a pet, they are a family member! I work from home as a seamstress, which allows for my schedule to be very flexible. Last minute bookings to planned bookings work for me! All of my dogs are inside dogs. They are treated with the same care as humans, if not more. Comfort is top priority for my animals and I understand every pet will require something different. No 2 animals are the same and volunteering at the shelter has helped me learn that quickly! I feel I am very good at a reading the situation and would never do anything to make an animal feel uncomfortable.

Having a dog of my own has given me a deep understanding of their needs, behaviors, and personalities, and my dog has a big one. I’ve also fostered dogs for a couple of years, which has provided me with hands-on experience caring for dogs with many different behaviors and backgrounds! Owning a dog is definitely a full time job. However I have help from my roommate which allows me to care for my dog as well as helping care for others! If you entrust me with your pet in your own home, I will be sure to follow directions as needed. Whether it’s keeping your pet in a cage or taking them outside I will be sure to guarantee their safety under my watch.
About: I am a huge dog lover of all sorts. I am currently on a break from school and am able to provide additional love and outside time for your loved ones while your on vacation or at work. I do live in a condo but live less than 5 minutes away from a dog park. I will be more than happy to take your dog outside and stretch their legs. I have more than 8 years of experience of taking care of animals. I also have additional time and information about how to teach dog basic skills such as sit, lay down, and stay. I can also provide just time to spend with your dog showing them loving time and compassion. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

“Shanna was absolutely amazing! I am new to Bakersfield having recently moved from NC and had never used Rover before let alone an in home sitter. We have always used cage free, free play boarding facilities in NC - so this made me a bit nervous. From the start Shanna was absolutely great with explaining the process, reassuring, and during the meet & greet Aurora felt right at home. Aurora usually returns back a little stressed from any boarding experience but she was in such a happy and excited mood when we picked her up. We will use Shanna any time we need a dog sitter going forward, I can't say enough great things about the experience!”
“Nalani was great with Gerald! I had to reschedule for a last minute boarding and she was able to take him in and make sure he was safe and happy! Will definitely be sticking with rover as my boarding whenever I am in need of a sitter for my dog.”
“Sidney is AMAZING!!!! She took such loving care of ours boys while we were out of town. She cared for them as if they were her own pets and sent me plenty of pictures and videos. We will be using her again for our next dog-sitting needs!”
“Adriana is the best pet sitter I have ever known. She spoils my dog, gives him treats, and bathes him before I pick him up. I would highly recommend Adriana for any of your pet care needs.”
“Took great care of my dog and went above and beyond for her. I got lots of pictures of the fun times they were having and my dog came home happy and tired from all the playing. Highly recommend”
“Whitney was outstanding watching mine and my husband’s fur baby June! She constantly sent updates and pictures and even took our June on a walk. June loved her, I don’t feel comfortable leaving our baby with anyone but Whitney has definitely became the exception! She was amazing and I will be using her again. My husband and I both recommend her to all our family and friends. She is very attentive to our puppy and made sure she was well taken care of. Definitely had a great experience!”
“I am so appreciative of Breanna! She was great with my fur baby! She made sure both me and my dog were comfortable, safe, and happy! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates! Breanna was amazing with learning the needs of my pup and tending to them!”
“I was a little uneasy leaving our 3month puppy just because we never left shadow anywhere before. But Shyla was great and sent photos and video of shadow playing and just being free! I love he got to have a big backyard yard to roam and play with her other dogs. He didn't want to leave! 😆 Will definitely rebook, and will be dropping shadow off from time to time just for day care. Book this lovely family for your fur-babies!!”
“Stephanie did a great job caring for our dogs. I felt 100% comfortable leaving them with her. She was very responsive and sent me updates with pics. I highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!!”
“Melissa was absolutely great with our Ariel. Ariel had the best time. Melissa sent pictures and updates. Ariel was happy while being there. Definitely will be using Melissa again”
“We had to Google a boarding facility since we had just moved to Bakersfield. We chose Jill & Liz because of their high reviews. And we got really lucky! My dog was well cared for and I received daily updates. I was able to be away from home and away from my fur baby with no regrets & no stress! I highly recommend them!”
About: I’ve been taking care of homes & pets since I was 11 years old. I always make sure there is a safe environment and room for a pet to be themselves. I look forward to caring for your sweet animals!:) I currently work part time and am home quite a bit so I have ample time to spend with your dog. I also have a massive backyard with grass area, plants, and a pool if they like swimming. My priority is to make sure that your pet feels comfortable around me regardless of the environment. I believe that once the pet feels safe with its caretaker, then the environment doesn’t play a huge role.
About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech
“Adriana was so welcoming, gentle & nice. She took great care of our big boy and her family was also very welcoming of our pup. Don’t hesitate to book with her! You will truly feel like your dog is part of her family. Thank you!!”
