“Buddy is always so excited to go visit with Sarah and Jamey C. He so loves it there. He is happy when we pick him up too. It's obvious they take such great care of Buddy. We couldn't be happier leaving Buddy with them.”
“Mr. John took care of my first born fur baby very well! It’s nice to know I have someone reliable who can take care of my dog while I’m traveling. Will not be the first or last time booking with Mr. John 10/10!”
“I want to just thank these two. Followed instructions exactly as stated, gave frequent updates, and provided us with so many pictures and videos. Suki had so so so much fun with Nala and Thena and even got exposure to kittens that were being fostered in their home. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“Your pets will seriously get the best of care with Taylor and Brian. They both love all pets to bits, and are great at feeding schedules, medicine, and special needs. I don’t think I can recommend them highly enough. I always entrust both my dogs and cats to their care, and have had successful drop ins and boarding.”
“This was my first time using the app and first time having my dog board at someone elses house. Cristin was amazing with communication and sending photos and updates about my dog. This was the first best experience my dog and I had. She is the best person to book if your ever looking for someone to care for your baby. She gives all the attention in the world to them and treats them like a princess. I am so happy my dog felt safe and comfortable he normally always nervouse but cristin made him feel welcomed and loved which made him open up.”
About: Babysat for both animals and children, also work as a Pediatric Medical assistant, love to take them out with me especially on my nightly walks and get all our energy out of our system. I am pretty open since I only work three days a week randomly. Just let me know what days you need and we can coordinate. I live in a 2 story house soon moving to a 1 floor house with a huge grass backyard and a huge fence. I’m very big on building a trust system with the animals I babysit especially once with a bad background. They free roam in my bedroom living room and backyard. I go on 30mins- 1 hour walks normally. I love playing games as well with them as well and take them to meet my friends pets too.
“Ximadra was amazing. Super sweet and communicated well sent me photos and kept me updated on his schedule. I picked up mg boy and he was sooooo excited which tells me he had a great time. Definitely will be booking again in the future. ?”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! We were heartened to know she was safe with you and your pups and really appreciated the update and photos. Maudy sends her best to you and her poodle pals!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was just 2 years old, making pet care second nature to me. Over a lifetime of ownership, I have raised everything from dogs and cats to chickens, bunnies, a hamster, and a chameleon. My hands-on experience also includes years of fostering cats and dogs, as well as taking in strays and nursing them back to health. This diverse background has made me highly adaptable to different behaviors, medical needs, and pet personalities. I am an incredibly compassionate, loving person dedicated to a future of helping animals, and I will treat your pets with the exact same deep care and devotion I give my own. Pet care is my absolute top priority, and because I am completely free all the time, I can fully devote 100% of my attention to your pet. My highly flexible schedule means I am available throughout the day and week for consistent feeding, exercise, and companionship. Your pet will never feel lonely, as I am always around to keep them company, maintain their exact daily routines, and ensure they get the dedicated love they deserve I build deep trust with animals by treating them like family and giving them a spoiled, loving environment where they can thrive. My home features a fully fenced yard where pets can safely run, play, and burn off energy. Pets naturally bond with me; my childhood dog used to sleep right above my head and sit at my feet whenever I was at my desk. Whether caring for them in my home or yours, I maintain this exact level of safety, deep devotion, and respect. I strictly follow your specific safety rules, keep environments clean, and will send you frequent photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
“Kimberly took special care of Del, my dog, who has trust issues coming from a hoarder situation with little contact with humans. Her taking one dog at a time is a plus for Del or most dogs who are needing to board. Her dog, Daisy, is sweet and non threatening. Kimberly gave the space Del needed when he was with her and Daisy. If I need Del boarded in Merced I will use her again.”
About: Thank you for reviewing my profile! I am unable to edit, but my preferred name is Astro. I am a 23-year-old ag-business student with a minor in animal science. I am unavailable from 8a-12pm on weekdays, but I am available at any other time to take care of any pets you may have. I have a passion for animals because I enjoy giving them love, just as they give love back to us. This June 2026, I have cared for my former professor's 2 dogs, cat, and goat for two different weeks. I will be housesitting for her this June 21-28, so I will only have availability for walks and drop-ins at this time. I make sure to give all animals extra love while their owners are away. If no walks are bought for housesits, I will give one walk per stay, and if my schedule allows, I'll provide additional. I am comfortable with farm animals as well, if you need care and feeding for them. My pet background: I have 2 years of experience as a kennel attendant: sanitizing kennels, taking dogs for walks, feeding, and medicating both dogs and cats. I also have a few months of experience as a vet assistant: restraining animals for vaccines and nail trims. I currently have a 5-year-old chihuahua and a 4-year-old domestic shorthair cat. My chihuahua has seizures and requires a specific feeding and medication schedule, so I can easily adapt to your pets if they have additional needs. Since I was 12, I would adopt rabbits from the flea market and take care of them until I was in high school. I adopted my chihuahua as a one-month-old in 2020, and have been taking care of her ever since. My passion for animals led me to earn my AA in Animal Science, and expanded my interest in caring for farm animals as well. Animals make me happy, and after my kennel attendant job ended, I decided to try Rover out to continue working in the field I enjoy! June 21-28 I am booked for housesittng, but available for drop-ins and walks. My earliest availability starts 1:30pm on Monday thru Thursdays as I work 8a-12p. Fridays I work 10a-2/6pm so I can drop in before 9a or after 2/6pm. House-Sitting information: I am unavailable to provide services in my home, but I am available for house-sitting in your home on weekends. I have taken care of my former professor's 2 dogs in her home while she has been away a week + weekends, along with her two outside pets of a cat and goat. On weekdays, I can house-sit, but I will be in and out for personal, child, or pet errands. I'd like to note that on weekends, I will need to feed and give potty breaks for my own pets at home, but will return to your pets once finished. In my client's home, I treat it with the same respect as I would in my own home. I also make sure to keep it clean and organized as the owner has left it. I don't wish to make my client's uncomfortable, so I will make sure to ask before doing anything that wasn't previously discussed. For house-sitting, I provide basic cleaning before leaving your home (sweeping and mopping the floors).
“Estefany was a fantastic dog sitter to my pup Ella! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very nice and easy going. She was also super flexible as I shifted the dates & times a few times. Ella had a great time with her pups Zoey & Bella. Would highly recommend to all fellow pet owners!”
“Stacey and her dad took great care of our dog. They sent us update pictures daily and exercised our mini schnauzer on walks. We will use them again when we return to Yosemite. Cell phone reception is not great in this area. So, we recommend printing out directions or taking screen shots of directions before driving there.”

“I met Jasmine a few days before she was to sit with Lola. She was very friendly and put my mind at ease. When Jasmine was with Lola she had updated me through text, photos, and video which I truly appreciated! If possible, she will be my forever sitter for Lola!”
“We made our booking on very short notice and Eve was kind enough to accept. We are very grateful for her daily Rover report on our sweet Jenna as well as it seemed she even made her a puzzle that I had briefly mentioned that I would make ahead of time but was not able to as time got away from me. Thank you, Eve!”
“Kirsten did a great job! I met with her briefly beforehand, she was polite and attentive as I walked her through everything. During her visiting she checked off all of my requests and sent pictures as confirmation. Lastly she was great with my cat, playing with her and giving her treats. Would hire her again, fully trust her with my cat.”
About: I have 12 years of experience in animal care and a life time of loving animals. I am a licensed registered veterinary technician. I have personal experience with senior care. Pet care fits into my daily routine. It does not even feel like work. I truly enjoy caring for other people’s fur-babies. I am capable of medicating and taking pets on walks. I care for pets in their home where they are most comfortable. Depending on what the owner would like me to do. I can take their pet on walks, keep them company and feed them and give them potty breaks.
“She was very good with my car who just got out a surgery. She checked for wounds and sent me pictures and made sure she was safe and happy. I would hire her back if I had a need for more pet care in the future. ?”
About: Cats have always been a part of my life. I currently have two of my own (a curious 9-month-old and a calm, affectionate 5-year-old), so I’m no stranger to the different needs that come with each stage of a cat’s life. My experience dates back to elementary school, when I’d help care for the neighborhood cats and look after family friends’ cats whenever they needed a hand. Over the years, I’ve learned how to build trust with even the most timid kitties, maintain clean and comfortable litter spaces, and provide gentle care, whether it’s playtime, feeding, or administering medications. I truly understand what it takes to keep cats happy, healthy, and purring.
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and have been caring for dogs and cats ever since. I understand how stressful it is to leave your pet with someone new, so I make it my priority to follow their routines and keep them comfortable. My experience includes: - Senior pets who need slower-paced care and extra attention - Puppies and younger dogs who need training reinforcement and boundaries - Shy or anxious pets who take time to warm up - Cats with specific feeding schedules, litter preferences, or medical needs - Multi-pet households where each animal has different requirements I take this work seriously because I know what your pet means to you. When you book with me, you're not getting someone who's just going through the motions. You're getting someone who will care for your dog or cat the way they deserve. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which means I'm home most of the day. That gives me time to: - Take dogs on multiple walks or play sessions throughout the day - Keep cats on their normal feeding and playtime routines - Stay present for pets who need companionship or have separation anxiety I can adjust my availability based on your needs, whether that's overnight stays, drop-in visits, or regular walking. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home: - I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, walk routes, medication schedules, bedtime habits - I keep doors and gates secure, especially with escape-prone cats or anxious dogs - I send updates and photos so you know how things are going - I treat your home with respect and leave it the way I found it In my home: - Clean, pet-friendly space with secure doors and windows - Separate areas for pets who need their own space (especially important for cats) - Comfortable sleeping areas, fresh water, and plenty of playtime or downtime based on what they prefer When you trust me with your pet, I take that seriously. They get the same care, consistency, and attention I'd give my own. No exceptions.
About: Hey I’m Devin! Being a Vet Tech, the president of the Pre-Vet Club at UCM, and Dog Dad, I emphasize and vouch for the importance of caring for your pets. I know the stress and challenges one can run into when providing for your companions and it can be very difficult . That being said I’m more than happy to assist in caring for all pets, helping you and them with peace of mind and to live long happy lives together. I have extensive experience with companion animals of all kinds and am confident in providing your pet with the best care possible. I’m currently attending the UC as an undergraduate and have lots of time to provide my animal care services when I don’t have classes. I’m pretty flexible with my schedule and am willing to make accommodations for your needs. I make sure to be respectful of all my clients property and preferences. I could easily crate your pet if needed, let them out frequently, and overall make sure they are comfortable while you’re away.
“Shannon is the best! She took excellent care of our two dogs. She made sure they had their exercise, socialized with them. They were 2 very happy dogs. She is very good at communicating so there are no worries while your away. Lots of pics were sent on each visit. I highly recommend her.”
“Nelson took great care of my kitten and kept me updated on he activity throughout the day. Nelson also provided my little man with his medication, and when I went to pick my kitten up early, Nelson was helpful and kind with getting me a refund for the days my pet did not stay with him. Would definitely recommend!”
“I was out of town for two weeks and didn’t have anyone to take care of my dogs. I hired Gonzalo who had never met my dogs and he did great. He was a huge help he also takes and sends pictures with every visit which I liked a lot. I highly recommend his services.”
About: I’ve been a cat owner for over 8 years and currently share my home with my two cats, Suki and Remy, who keep me well-trained in the art of feline care. Between the two of them, I’ve learned that every cat has their own personality, preferences, and daily routine. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, administering basic medications when needed, and giving cats the patience and space they deserve while helping them feel comfortable and secure. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers to observe from a safe distance, I’ll make sure they’re cared for according to their needs. As someone who regularly trusts others to care for my own cats when I travel, I understand how important communication is. I’ll provide updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance so you can enjoy your time away knowing your cat is in good hands.
About: I’ve lived with cats most of my life. From independent prowlers to clingy cuddle bugs. Right now, I share my home with one cat and I’ve cared for many more over the years, including seniors and those with medical needs. I’m comfortable with: • Administering oral medications • Handling anxious or shy cats • Maintaining a super clean litter box area I understand cat body language, respect their space, and know when to give attention and when to just let them vibe. Whether your cat wants to nap in the sun, chase a string, or pretend I don’t exist, I’ll give them the calm, cozy, and attentive care they deserve.
About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.
“Ericka watched our dog Zeus while my boyfriend and I explored Yosemite for the weekend! She was so flexible and easy to communicate with! One day she did day care at our hotel suite, then for the others she just did drop-in visits! Zeus was well taken care of and we would def choose Ericka again! Thank you for taking such good care of our Zeus & making us feel at ease while leaving him :)”
“Coralie was wonderful! Everything went smoothly, she communicated well, she sent pictures, and she was happy to help with the last minute boarding of a very stressed out kitty. The kitty came back in a good mental state, and I had peace of mind all weekend. Highly recommend her services. ?”
“I couldn't be happier with Jef and his time spent with my dog - Jax was clearly happy and content when we got home from our trip. Jef was responsive, flexible when I changed things up a bit, and I absolutely recommend him to other pet owners. I'll be contacting him next time we head out without our pup.”

“We loved the service, and from the pictures we can tell Dexter was well taken care of and he had a great time. He’s a pup so we were worried about how he would do with the other dogs but looked like he fit right in. Thanks Jon! Definitely recommend and would trust them again with our boy.”
“Nelson did such a great job watching my fur baby! I am super protective over my 3 year old Siberian Husky & Nelson provided picture updates of my dog throughout the stay. His home is a very safe space & he allowed my dog to feel comfortable& at home. My dog was so happy AND tired out! He wasn’t thirsty or hungry, he was well loved & cared for and received the exercise he needed. I would highly recommend him to anyone & definitely will be coming back!!”
“Michele was amazing! From the minute she responded to my inquiry, I loved her enthusiasm. She was communicative and quick to respond to questions, as well as very open with her schedule. She was agreeable and flexible, and all of that was before she even met the pup in question! All day while she had Piper, she was sending videos and pictures, letting me know what they were up to. My partner picked Piper up from Michele’s and said he could tell she took REALLY great care of my pup and that Piper really liked her! I’m not from the area but whenever I come back, I’ll be contacting Michele for sure!”

“Stacey and her family were so amazing with my two high energy border collie pups. They honestly went above and beyond with my work schedule and me dropping them off early in the am (it was still dark!).

About: I have been caring for animals all my life, on both sides of my family. I primarily grew up with dogs (of all shapes, sizes, and breeds), but I have grown to love cats just as much. I have experience caring for several animals simultaneously, including both cats and dogs. I have cared for animals from newborns to seniors and have experience caring for animals with medical needs (oral medication, injections, etc.). I love animals of all kinds and would love to take care of yours! I am a full-time student at Merced College, and I'm working on my ASTs in Mathematics and Computer Science & Engineering! I do have a couple of in-person classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays (online wasn't available), so please message me if you are interested in booking but unsure if the dates/ times will work. Other than that, I am generally free the rest of the week. I was recently accepted to UC Merced, and I'm scheduled to transfer this fall (2025). To fully focus on my studies, I will no longer be offering dog-sitting services after mid-August of this year. I really appreciate your understanding, thank you! I can travel as needed to care for your pet in your home. I am more than happy to adapt to whatever needs/ wants you may have regarding the care of your pet!
About: I’ve cared for pets of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm senior pets, ensuring each one feels safe, loved, and well cared for. What sets me apart is my patience, attentiveness, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its unique routine, quirks, and comfort needs, and I tailor my care to meet each individual's specific needs. I’m also comfortable administering medication, adhering to particular feeding schedules, and ensuring your pet receives plenty of exercise and affection while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just quiet companionship, I’m here to give your pet the care they deserve. As a college student with a part-time job, I’ve learned to manage my time well, and pet care is something I genuinely enjoy making time for. I’m mostly available in the evenings, especially between 5:00 and 8:00 PM, but depending on the day, I may also be available in the mornings or afternoons.

About: I strive to respect every individual's needs and preferences while also prioritizing their comfort and well-being. Whether they are a dog, cat, reptile, bird, or bug. During overnight stays I ensure pets feel comfortable and content, while also respecting their space and boundaries. Especially for those who prefer to be left alone. Some of my prior experiences with pet sitting involved caring for four senior dogs and a kitten. I made sure they received meticulous care. Some of my tasks included administering medications and providing engaging activities. My devotion to animals of all kinds sets me apart as a compassionate and reliable pet sitter. Being unemployed allows me to prioritize pet care, ensuring reliable and attentive service tailored to your pets needs. I am committed to giving the best possible care for your pets!

“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”
About: Your pet will not wanna go home. I will provide excellent care. Ive been obsessed with pets since I was a little boy and have always treated them as another human being.

They will also be able to roam in my home comfortably and freely as if in their own home. Your pet will always want to return to my home because I will provide the best experience that they have had with a pet sitter that honestly cares and strives to provide that nurturing and fun environment for each and every stay that they’ll have with me. I’m home 23 hours out of the day at home. I have plenty of time on my hands to be the best pet sitter for your pet.

Of course I make sure to make my home very safe for them because they can be very curious about everything like a small toddler. There’s never a need to worry about their safety and we’ll being. I also have surveillance indoor and out just so I don’t miss anything.
About: Animal care has always been a passion of mine. Currently taking care of a pack of French Bulldogs Growing up I had 5-6 dogs I was responsible for feeding,grooming, exercising ect. Professionally I have worked in kennels for about 6-8years, ranging in groups of 2-50. As a kennel technician I was responsible for maintaining a leveled space for everyone to play and exercise or even relax. I do have experience in medication administration, oral, topical, rectum, shots. I have also a year of being a veterinary assistant which is what I'm currently pursuing and absolutely love it. My schedule is wide open currently! I just moved back to the Central Valley and I'm flexible. I have school online for Veterinary Technology and have started school for LVN as well. While doing a house sitting or drop-in, I always greet the animals check food and water bowls, make my way to the yard and ALWAYS check the yard before letting out animals. I will walk around the house to make sure there were no accidents or anything out of sorts really. I make sure doors are closed that need to be and always give the love that's needed.
About: I’ve spent my life surrounded by animals. I currently live with 3 amazing pets and have cared for 4 others who’ve passed over the years. I understand the full range of pet needs, from energetic puppies to senior pets who require a gentler touch. I’ve personally cared for: • Large breeds like pit bulls and huskies • Tiny seniors with medication routines • Cats of all temperaments, from shy to bold • Multiple pets at once, including managing introductions, feeding schedules, and comfort needs I bring a calm, confident energy that helps animals feel at ease. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, needs extra patience, or just wants their belly rubbed exactly 3 times and no more, I’m here for it. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, safe, and totally at home while you’re away. Pet care is my daily routine. I already spend each day caring for my own pets — feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning, cuddling, and making sure everyone feels safe and loved. Adding your pet into that rhythm is a natural fit. Because I have a flexible work schedule, I’m able to give pets regular attention throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. I’m used to balancing multiple pets and making sure each one gets individual care, whether it’s exercise, meds, or just sitting together in a calm space. When your pet stays with me or I visit them, they become part of a routine built around comfort, care, and presence. My home is calm, pet-friendly, and fully set up to keep animals safe and comfortable. I only take in pets I know I can give proper attention to, no overcrowding, no chaos. Every animal gets their own space if needed, and introductions are done slowly and carefully. If your dog is crate-trained and you’d like them to use their crate here, I’m happy to accommodate that. I see crates as a safe, cozy space for pets who are used to them, never as punishment. If your pet isn’t crate-trained, that’s totally fine too. I’ll work with whatever helps them feel most secure. I keep all food, meds, and cleaning supplies stored securely. I never leave pets unsupervised in the yard or near open doors. I follow your instructions closely and communicate openly so you always know how your pet is doing. Most of all, I treat every pet like one of my own, with respect, patience, and care. Whether your pet is shy, playful, anxious, or just needs a quiet spot to chill, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and at home.
About: I have always had the responsibility of caring for my own animals, but I love getting to help other people care for their pets. I love meeting new animals and have lots of experience in this area. I have been walking dogs around my neighborhood since I was about 10 years old. I loved this experience which is why I have decided to dedicate myself to this line of work so I can always be available to help an animal in need. Currently I work an evening shift at a restaurant 4 nights a week so I have the day open before 5 pm Friday through Monday and Tuesday Wednesday Thursday I am completely available. My schedule also will be opening up more soon. I have a very large area for dogs to run around and two very friendly dogs of my own. I always start by making sure the space is free of any hazards, like toxic plants or loose wires and that they have a cozy spot just for them. Building trust is key, so I take things slow, using positive reinforcement like treats and praise to create a bond. Whether it's playtime or just chilling, I'm all about keeping their routine consistent to minimize stress.

“Buddy is always so excited to go visit with Sarah and Jamey C. He so loves it there. He is happy when we pick him up too. It's obvious they take such great care of Buddy. We couldn't be happier leaving Buddy with them.”
“Mr. John took care of my first born fur baby very well! It’s nice to know I have someone reliable who can take care of my dog while I’m traveling. Will not be the first or last time booking with Mr. John 10/10!”
“I want to just thank these two. Followed instructions exactly as stated, gave frequent updates, and provided us with so many pictures and videos. Suki had so so so much fun with Nala and Thena and even got exposure to kittens that were being fostered in their home. I will definitely be a returning client.”
“Your pets will seriously get the best of care with Taylor and Brian. They both love all pets to bits, and are great at feeding schedules, medicine, and special needs. I don’t think I can recommend them highly enough. I always entrust both my dogs and cats to their care, and have had successful drop ins and boarding.”
“This was my first time using the app and first time having my dog board at someone elses house. Cristin was amazing with communication and sending photos and updates about my dog. This was the first best experience my dog and I had. She is the best person to book if your ever looking for someone to care for your baby. She gives all the attention in the world to them and treats them like a princess. I am so happy my dog felt safe and comfortable he normally always nervouse but cristin made him feel welcomed and loved which made him open up.”
“Thank you for taking such good care of our girl! We were heartened to know she was safe with you and your pups and really appreciated the update and photos. Maudy sends her best to you and her poodle pals!”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was just 2 years old, making pet care second nature to me. Over a lifetime of ownership, I have raised everything from dogs and cats to chickens, bunnies, a hamster, and a chameleon. My hands-on experience also includes years of fostering cats and dogs, as well as taking in strays and nursing them back to health. This diverse background has made me highly adaptable to different behaviors, medical needs, and pet personalities. I am an incredibly compassionate, loving person dedicated to a future of helping animals, and I will treat your pets with the exact same deep care and devotion I give my own. Pet care is my absolute top priority, and because I am completely free all the time, I can fully devote 100% of my attention to your pet. My highly flexible schedule means I am available throughout the day and week for consistent feeding, exercise, and companionship. Your pet will never feel lonely, as I am always around to keep them company, maintain their exact daily routines, and ensure they get the dedicated love they deserve I build deep trust with animals by treating them like family and giving them a spoiled, loving environment where they can thrive. My home features a fully fenced yard where pets can safely run, play, and burn off energy. Pets naturally bond with me; my childhood dog used to sleep right above my head and sit at my feet whenever I was at my desk. Whether caring for them in my home or yours, I maintain this exact level of safety, deep devotion, and respect. I strictly follow your specific safety rules, keep environments clean, and will send you frequent photo updates so you always have total peace of mind.
“Estefany was a fantastic dog sitter to my pup Ella! She sent plenty of pictures and updates and was very nice and easy going. She was also super flexible as I shifted the dates & times a few times. Ella had a great time with her pups Zoey & Bella. Would highly recommend to all fellow pet owners!”
“Shannon did a great job sitting our two large dogs; highly recommend! She gave routine updates, pictures, and read my dogs info before we arrived. She has a nice dog proof house. Allowed the dogs on her couch and dog bed. She took them for routine walks around her large property. She was kind and trustworthy. We used her for one night of dog sitting while we hiked half dome. There are limited to no other options in the area and dogs aren’t allowed on any Yosemite hikes. We were lucky to get her!”
“Ruthie was absolutely wonderful!! She takes such good care of her pups and did the same with mine. It was a relief not to have to worry about my pups while I did a hike in Yosemite. I can’t recommend her enough! I’ve always thought my pups would love the farm life and after seeing my pups at Ruthie’s place, it only confirms that ?”
