“This was our first time leaving Lilo, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! We were a little nervous at first, but Susana quickly put us at ease with regular updates, adorable photos, and so much love, personalized care and attention for our pup. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She truly went above and beyond, and we’re incredibly grateful. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”

“Wow! We are so happy with the care Melissa and Sebastian gave our Jaeger! They had him for a weekend and he got plenty of exercise, was fed well, and got plenty of attention. They also were so communicative and accommodating. We received multiple pictures and videos of him while we were away, which put us at ease. We will be back!”

“Ilona took great care of my two senior Labs. One has to take multiple medications throughout the day and Ilona was willing to take on the added work. She sent pics most everyday of the dogs looking relaxed and happy. thanks Ilona - great job!”

“Laura and her family were excellent caretakers for Goldie overnight! Having chatted with them in advance made me feel so much more confident and assured since this was my first time leaving her. She had a great time, will definitely use them again. Thanks!”


“I chose Nicole the first time I used Rover.com and she is the only sitter I use. My little 14 year old has enjoyed short and long stays with Nicole and her family. It's a perfect match! As an older pet he needs a special diet and occasional medications and she makes it so easy. I feel so comfortable leaving him with her and I love her daily pictures and messages. I feel very fortunate to have found such a loving home to leave my little man with!”

“this is the third time tina watched our dog rocky and as usual, she took really good care of him!!! she is such a sweetheart!! tina makes sure rocky gets a lot of exercise and activities (puzzles, hide&seek games, fetch, etc). i can’t thank her enough for everything she did for my rocky!!!! i highly recommend her if you need a trustworthy sitter!”

“Kevin's and his family did such an awesome job with meeting, boarding, walking and caring for Charlie! He really enjoyed being there too. Great experience for all involved. Would definitely use him in the future!”

“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”

“We had such a great experience with Liliana! She took wonderful care of Zoey and was very consistent with updates. I really appreciated the photos and messages. Zoey looked so happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”

“My furry babies were well cared for. This was the first time I left my babies for more than a day and Chengcheng gave me peace of mind by sending periodic photos to let me know they were doing good and happy. Will definitely use her services again.”

“This was our first time dropping our puppies off with anyone. Tiffany and her family welcomed them in like they were part of their own family. She sent me pictures and kept me up to date with how they were doing. My puppies LOVED it there and loved Tiffany!! I will ask Tiffany to watch my puppies whenever possible!”


“Areli was amazing! It was Leo’s first time sitting and he had a great time and even met a new doggy friend. Loved the frequent updates and pictures. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to care for Leo while we were away.”

“Had a great experience with JJ! My dog clearly had an amazing time and I really appreciated all of the videos and pics of his stay :) communication was great, would absolutely book again!”

“Fiona lives in a great, dog-friendly neighborhood with plenty of clean paths to take your dogs for walks. There are section of grass where you can take them off leash, so that they can let out their energy. Fiona's home is clean, quiet and beautiful. Your dog will have a comfortable stay. Photos and communication were frequent. Thank you, Fiona !”

“Caroline was wonderful. She took care of Penny like she was part of her family. I appreciate that especially since Penny is so special to me. She kept me updated on her progress and sent me pics. I would highly recommend Caroline.”

“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”

“Mae made my first time leaving my Frenchie with someone outside of family so easy and comforting. She and her family cared for her like their own and sent sweet updates throughout the weekend. I’m so grateful for Mae’s kindness and will definitely book with her again!”

“Andrew was great & I’ll definitely book again! I have 3 cats & not only did he easily handle 3 cats, but I have a senior cat that needed meds, a crazy hyperactive kitten, and a Savannah cat. Andrew was very responsive and communicated great & was flexible on timings for drop ins. Andrew also handled the unexpected events great - my Savannah cat had a minor injury & the kitten destroyed some things. So all around Andrew was great & i definitely recommend him!”


About: Ive always loved cats. They often have this mystique about them. I've owned a cat for about 2 years now, before that ive house sat for many different cats of different personalities. Indoor or outdoor I will make sure you kitty is taken care of :)
About: I have worked with animals almost my entire lifetime, starting at age 10 with horses. I'm the kind of person who took in, and rescued any animal who needed it (mice/ rats/ fox cubs/ parrots/ ducks - you name it!). Growing up in an isolated farming community in rural England was conducive to this. By my early teens I moved on to raise money for animal rescue charity’s such as the WWF and RSPCA. I am certified in Pet first aid, and whilst not busy with running my dog walking business, I'm pursuing dog training certification, and aspire to study Animal Behavior MSC. I have been in the dog care business in California since 2009, I recently made Lake Hughes my home and am opening my schedule to the local community for dog boarding. Your dogs will join my pack! Between myself and several of my trusted live-in ranch workers (also experienced in pet care) we provide 24hour supervision in a in-home setting! Your dog will stay inside of my home, we can section off separate areas depending on how well your dog is adjusting to our pack. If your dog prefers to keep to himself he might score his own private bedroom! If he/she prefers a crate, that is ok too! We are experienced in knowing how to adjust for each personality type. We have a fenced in yard outside, and if you are comfortable with it, your dog is welcome to roam our 20-acre property (with supervision of course) during bathroom and exercise breaks. They may even get lucky and meet one of friendly ranch livestock (with supervision of course) that are all accustomed to dogs!
“Monica is the best! I'll seek her out every time we need a cat sitter. She's responsible, knowledgeable, and kind, and it's obvious she loves our cats! She communicates well, sends us photos, and goes the extra mile, brushing our shaggy boy and she even cleaned him up when he needed it. Monica is a treasure!”

“I loved that Camille is super responsive, very prompt with schedules, responsible, and just over all seems to really enjoy caring for dogs! My puppy was very pleased to have Camille take care of him for the night, and I was pleased she was available on short notice. I appreciate her knowledge of dogs and care she takes in our requests (and just in general). I will definitely book services with her again, and recommend you give her a chance to care for your fur baby.”


“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”


“I am so grateful that I found Danielle! She is extremely reliable, flexible and my dogs LOVE her. My dogs are always tuckered out when she is done playing with them and they love when she comes. Not only is she reliable and treats my dogs as if they were her own, she makes sure the bag gate is locked, sends photos, and communicates. Danielle comes on a daily basis and I would highly recommend her. Thanks Danielle!!”

“Sara Z is my favorite dog sitter ! I just met her a week ago but I know I will always call her to take care of my Mutzy and Kobe . She came twice a day on time ...to take care of my fur babies. She hand fed my 12 years old so she can make sure she gives him the vetsuline shots after his meal. She is sweet , calm and my babies loved her. Anyone who needs a vacation ... call Sara Z ... you can enjoy your time away from home ... because they will be taken care of by the loving Sara Z . I promise !!!”
About: Being a pet owner my whole life has allowed me to understand dogs very well! I’ve dealt with bigger breeds like German Shepards and Pitt bulls, smaller breeds have always gotten along well with my demeanor. I have majority of the day to walk or take dogs to a park or allow them to explore the deserts. Let me know your dogs preference of activity. I stick to the rules, let me know what your dogs need or if they have anything that is specific for them that needs to get done!
“Tatiana did an excellent job caring for our cats while we were out of town. She was very communicative, flexible and sent us delightful updates on our cats with photos and videos that let us know they were getting love. She also brought in our mail when I forgot to ask about it. Highly recommend her and would definitely book again. Thanks Tatiana!”

“Shannon took wonderful care of our cats while we were out of town. She was kind and calm, which made them feel comfortable immediately. Especially the more nervous one! She was receptive every time we reached out and always sent us sweet pictures so we knew our fur babies were happy and healthy. We will definitely book with her next time we go out of town!”

About: I have been an animal/dog lover ever since I was a little girl. My first dog was our families at the age of 12. We all had to chip in on responsibilities and I learned from a very early age what it really means to take care of a dog/puppy. Especially with a demanding breed such as a German Shepard for your first pup! Ever since first taking care of our German Shepard, Rambo, taking care of animals always came easy to me, even the tougher/sassier breeds. Since Rambo, I have my own mini husky and I am my friends and family go to for watching their pets. I am always watching someone's cat or pup and always providing all of the walking, cleaning, playtime, and feeding needs! I have been in the hospitality industry since I was 17 years old and like to think I provide excellent service, excellent care, and really take the time to learn and listen to what people need. I am currently working at home majority of my time now. Anytime I really leave the house is for necessities or to go out to eat! Ever since my little sister started doing pet care on the side herself, I couldn't think of a better way to help keep me company and to help a little financially on the side as well. With my current employment, I am able to give your fur child 24/7 care! I live in a lovely, large apartment with plenty of space to run around and play. The apartment is very safe and your pet is allowed on the furniture or wherever else their heart desires. I will always be present with your fur baby and making sure they are safe and cared for.

“Isabella had my cat Major for 6 days and she was great, with him at keeping daily updates with pictures included. New face, new environment Major has never been away from home. All things considered Major adjusted pretty well.”

“Laura was very communicative, sent pics throughout the day and was very accommodating of our schedule. Bumi was tired out from playing with the other dogs and was definitely in good hands! We’ll definitely be coming back.”

“My experience with Thea was absolutely fantastic! She resides on a sprawling multi acre property, which provided the perfect playground for my high-energy dog. From the moment we arrived, it was evident that she has a deep understanding and passion for dogs. Her comforting demeanor instantly put my dog at ease, making him feel right at home! I highly recommend Thea to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable dog sitter. Her spacious property, combined with her expertise and loving approach, made for an exceptional experience for my dog. We will definitely be returning for future stays!”

“Melissa & Sebastian are so nice & helpful! My dogs first time being at someone else’s home & around other dogs. They know what they’re doing so it brings a peace of mind”


“I would 100% recommend Areli to care for your fur baby! It was my first time leaving my boy and she went above and beyond to update me with photos and keep me informed. I will for certain be rebooking with Areli !!”

“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”

“The best! I have a pretty hefty, dog-reactive pup and these two handled him amazingly. He felt instantly comfortable and the pictures showed a fantastic day. Beyond that they were flexible, which was greatly appreciated. Would definitely recommend!”

“Susana Is amazing, my puppy has already stayed with her twice. Every time he comes home sleepy from playing all day! Susana has also been amazing at sending me updates of my puppy, following directions and accommodating me and my puppy at a moments notice.”

“Ilona has been great with our dog! She was recommended to us by a fellow dog parent and we’re very thankful for Ilona - she takes great care of our dog, sends us a detailed care information after each visit, and the kids are so good with our dog as well. Bonus that Ilona is close to our home! Her communication is quick and is flexible when our pick up and drop off times need to shift on short notice.”

About: I have grown up with dogs. The past 10+ years I have cared for other peoples dogs. I understand how uneasy people feel about leaving their pooch in a Kennel, simply because their dog is their world and they would rather have their dog have home comforts whilst you are apart. Married but we have no children so am able to offer a calm environment for those dogs that are mature or nervous of bangs and loud noises. Likewise I have the time and energy for those dogs that need a little more play time. I have a neutered schnoodle that is mature enough to chill but also enjoys a play. I work part time from home. So I am able to offer your pooch a lot of time and love, be it walks or just company. I have an enclosed, secure garden, mainly walled with gated access which is locked. It is completely private. It is not a large garden, but it certainly offers a dog enough space to stretch their legs, chase a ball or just chill on the patio.
“Tina is an absolute gem. I left my little Ruby in Tina's care for a few hours to ensure Millie and Ruby got along well enough for a much longer stay coming up soon. It could not have gone better! I am so glad I chose Tina, she met and exceeded all of my expectations.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs for 33 years. Including but not limited to walking, feeding, hygiene care and administrating multiple medicines. Familiar with seizures as well. I have pets of my own so tending to animals is a routine to me and my children for a daily routine. We have cats and a small dog. Our cats and dog are mainly inside animals. With my dog going outside to the gated backyard whenever she wants. We also have a gated pool so the animals will remain safe.
“I’ve left my dog with Robyn a handful times and every time has been a great experience. She gives frequent updates throughout the day with pictures and videos of my baby. My pup has became fast friends with her and her dog Remy. I can tell how much Robyn cares about animals and I am very comfortable leaving Lady with her throughout my long workdays days. I’m happy to have found a reliable sitter in the neighborhood, thanks Robyn!”

“Maria and Michael were fantastic with our Cho-Cho. They made sure she felt as welcomed and comfortable as she could be, and that we were constantly updated with pictures and videos of her activities throughout her stay. Even their two fur babies, Luna and Abby, were also welcoming of Cho. Thank you so much!”

About: Dogs have been part of my life as long as I can remember! Love meeting all of them and can't wait to meet your little bud! I make my own schedule, so for the most part I'm available when needed (with proper planning for longer visits of course.) Feel free to reach out when you need a hand! My pup is on pretty good schedule, so I'm know the importance of keeping those scheduled feedings and/or outside time. If we need walks, someone to throw a ball to get the zoomies out or just someone to hang with so they're not alone all day I'm in!
“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”

“Chengcheng did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was at work. She went on multiple walks, took her to the park, and even sent pictures of my babe throughout the day so I always knew what they were doing together. I highly recommend Chengcheng for any service she offers, you can rest assured your baby is in good hands.”

About: |English & Spanish| 🐾Hello! I bring extensive hands on experience from my current role at a doggy daycare, where I manage, exercise, and care for dogs of every size from tiny Chihuahuas to large Mastiffs. I am comfortable handling diverse temperaments and maintaining a safe, structured environment. My dedication to animal welfare is further demonstrated by my active, consistent volunteer work at our local animal shelter, where I provide enrichment and comfort to dogs and cats awaiting their forever homes. 🐾 since I do currently work at a doggy daycare my schedule is limited, but I will update every week what days I am available or feel free to ask! 🐾 Providing updates, photos, or videos via apps or text to keep you informed on your furry friend and ensuring your furry friend has a safe and suitable environment.
About: I've been taking care of many pets of many different sizes from small dogs and cats to dogs so big they're basically a bear! Typically I sit for family friends or neighbors. Going for walks or just dropping in Im very excited to work with you and your pet! Im currently a house wife, and I serve at church Wednesday and Sunday so ill have plenty of time to take care of your pets! Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings I will be busy. When is a client's home I like to take the dog out and play ball, I always make sure they cool down before drinking too much water, I like to go though the tricks I know that they can do, take them on walks and of course give them lots of pets!
About: I have been around and handling animals my whole life. Big or small doesn’t make a difference to me. You can have 1 or 100 the more the merrier I’ve always said. I have experience with young big puppies and wait for you in the darkness to trip you cats. The “ excuse me may I have one more treat” horse to the parkour off you and everything goat. The sneaky kitties get caught redded pawed and the blubbering hounds sing with joy. I just moved back to Santa Clarita after living in Texas for 9 years. I’m currently doing handyman freelance work so I have a pretty open and flexible schedule. I try my best to make it seam like you’re not even gone by keeping to your pets normal scheduled routine and activities. That includes walks, feedings, medication, playtime, outside time a long with lots snuggles and plenty of treats (if allowed)
About: I would love to take care of your dog or cat for you. I work from home so I'm able to spend lots of time with them. I had 2 dogs and 2 cats in the past, one of my dogs I had for 14 years. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. Excited to meet your little buddy! I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can spend lots of time with your pet.

About: My soul dog lived until he was 15. Recently passed but I loved and cared for him for all those years. I have fostered dogs over the years and worked on crate training, leash walking, manners, behaviors and boundaries. I am a teacher on summer vacation looking to make extra income while spending time with pet dogs. Available all day various times of the day No pets currently in my home as my 15 year old recently passed. My yard is fenced and safe. Large grassy area and have many local parks to go on walks or hikes
About: I have dealt with many different pet personalities and genuinely care about their needs. I aim to give your four-legged friends the attention they deserve. I believe that a dog should have the ability to see what outside looks like, and visit different areas such as parks. I also believe that all pets act a certain way for a reason, and shouldn't be yelled at, or treated badly if they aren't 'easy-going' or 'social'. Personally, my love for pets started when I got my first dog as five years old. Named him Rocky after the boxer, Rocky Balboa. Unfortunately, he passed away two years ago from old age. He was blind, but he still recognized my voice...which was pretty amazing. Rocky showed me that a dog could truly be a man's best friend. I pledge to give the upmost care to your best friend. I currently work from home, so I will have plenty of time to play, walk, and give your pet the love they need while you’re away. I will carefully review your instructions in order to provide the best and safest environment for your pet(s). My services will be provided at a level that gives you and your pet maximum comfort.

About: Hi my name is Koryne, I have been caring for dogs for about 3 years now on and off. I have found a it to be a passion of mine whenever i get the chance to care for another fur baby. I have a dog of my own whom I rescued 4 years ago, ever since then i find myself caring and trying to help others with their pets because i have realized how important it is for our dogs to have the care that they need. That may include walks, entertainment, snack time, play time, even if it's just a small drop in to make sure they are doing ok while we are out for the day working or traveling. Thank you in advance for the trust and opportunity!

I have been in the hospitality industry since I was 17 years old and like to think I provide excellent service, excellent care, and really take the time to learn and listen to what people need. I am currently working at home majority of my time now. Anytime I really leave the house is for necessities or to go out to eat! Ever since my little sister started doing pet care on the side herself, I couldn't think of a better way to help keep me company and to help a little financially on the side as well. With my current employment, I am able to give your fur child 24/7 care! I live in a lovely, large apartment with plenty of space to run around and play. The apartment is very safe and your pet is allowed on the furniture or wherever else their heart desires. I will always be present with your fur baby and making sure they are safe and cared for.

“Wow! We are so happy with the care Melissa and Sebastian gave our Jaeger! They had him for a weekend and he got plenty of exercise, was fed well, and got plenty of attention. They also were so communicative and accommodating. We received multiple pictures and videos of him while we were away, which put us at ease. We will be back!”

“Ilona took great care of my two senior Labs. One has to take multiple medications throughout the day and Ilona was willing to take on the added work. She sent pics most everyday of the dogs looking relaxed and happy. thanks Ilona - great job!”

“Laura and her family were excellent caretakers for Goldie overnight! Having chatted with them in advance made me feel so much more confident and assured since this was my first time leaving her. She had a great time, will definitely use them again. Thanks!”

“Kevin's and his family did such an awesome job with meeting, boarding, walking and caring for Charlie! He really enjoyed being there too. Great experience for all involved. Would definitely use him in the future!”

“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”

“This was our first time dropping our puppies off with anyone. Tiffany and her family welcomed them in like they were part of their own family. She sent me pictures and kept me up to date with how they were doing. My puppies LOVED it there and loved Tiffany!! I will ask Tiffany to watch my puppies whenever possible!”

“Caroline was wonderful. She took care of Penny like she was part of her family. I appreciate that especially since Penny is so special to me. She kept me updated on her progress and sent me pics. I would highly recommend Caroline.”

“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”

“Mae made my first time leaving my Frenchie with someone outside of family so easy and comforting. She and her family cared for her like their own and sent sweet updates throughout the weekend. I’m so grateful for Mae’s kindness and will definitely book with her again!”

“Recently divorced and only get to see my little 5 year old girl every other weekend. Scheduled an impromptu visit last minute and reached out. I am certainly new at having a puppy alone and starting a new life but Kyle and Teresa not only made this trip possible last minute but exceeded expectations and took good care of my little boy with patience and love. They helped me realize there are still people out there you can trust. I can’t thank them enough and will certainly reach out to them again in the future. I recommend you contact them for any services you need as they both are exceptional people and care givers for our pups.”

“Stacy took Excellent care of my dog. She sent pictures everyday, and when I picked up my pup Stacy made her a scarf and a beautiful picture for me.I will hope she is available when I take my next trip and can let my dog stay with her again. Mary Morris.”

“Thea took such good care of our Moose. Moose was able to spend time with some ranch animals and other pups. Moose is very energetic so being on a ranch with other animals and some of his own kind was exactly what he loves. Thea was very accommodating and helpful. She provided updates, photos and when I picked moose up she was able to provide tips and tricks for adjusting small behavioral needs Moose has. Only the highest recommendations for Thea and her team!! Will be booking every time if possible.”

“I appreciated Melisa and Alexis daily review and they followed my pet’s routine. He was a bit nervous as it was his first time boarding but they kept on sending me pictures and updates every few hours. I appreciated that they let me know about his anxiety his first night, with restless sleep and offered to correct what was causing his anxiety which worked the 2nd night. He slept better and I really appreciated their proactiveness with it. I am at ease now knowing that I found a loving family to take care of my lil Cinco when I need it. Thank you so much Melisa and Alexis.”

“Elizabeth was kind and professional. She kept us updated on Akira's progress during the three days she had her via pictures and text messages. She provided a loving family environment for Akira.”

“This is the first time i leave my baby with a sitter for this long. Millie was very fearful toward big dogs and I was a little hesitant. After the initial meeting I was convinced shayna was the right sitter for her. Shayna took her on daily walk and worked with her reactive problem. I received daily videos and photos updates during her stay. I am very thankful for her service.”
