“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”
“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“Ozzy had so much fun staying with Ximena and her family. I would recommend her to all and will be coming back when needed. She sent us videos and pictures multiple times a day and knew our pup was in good hands.”
“Mac had an amazing time with a lot of playtime and new Friends ! We received multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, I will definitely rebook and would totally recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Lianna did a great job with Diesel and Taquito. She was able to meet me at car to assist in bringing the overnight items. I was invited in to meet the other dogs staying the night which allowed my dogs to settle in. She was transparent in what the flow would be for the stay and sent pics 2x a day. I would use her again! It was a great experience.”
“Sue was great with my senior cat! He's been having to move a lot with our military move so it was wonderful knowing he was in a comfortable and safe environment while we were busy and well loved.”
“Marby always takes such great care of our mini bernedoodle. She keeps us updated with pictures of their adventures and our pup is always so excited to stay with Marby. She is super responsive and gets back to us quickly and we always know our pup is in good hands! We highly recommend Marby!”
“Alexandra is the best of the best! She is a major dog lover and made us feel very comfortable while our baby Timber was spending time with her. We received daily pictures and updates, as well as ensured any of our special requests were met. Her home is clean and secure, which is a major plus! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Lindsay was a great dog sitter for my dog foxy. Foxy had an overnight stay at her home with her two dogs and it was wonderful. Lindsey was very flexible with my schedule and would keep me updated on the dogs daily activities. She is very attentive. I will use her services again.”
“Arriyanna is a godsend. Arriyanna sent picture and message updates frequently while my cat boarded with her. Overall I felt relieved that I chose Arriyanna to pet sit. I also felt my cat was safe and loved while in her care. I definitely plan to rebook with her in the future.”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitters! They took such great care of our dogs and truly went above and beyond. They walked them regularly, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What impressed us most was how attentive they were to each of our dogs’ individual personalities and specific needs. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after and took the time to make sure every one of our dogs was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. To top it all off, they ended our booking with a fantastic report card that summarized everything our dogs did while we were away. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed just how dedicated they are. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will absolutely be booking with them again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitters!”
About: I’ve had pets since as long as I could remember. Right now, I have 3 babies that are my whole world. My dog, Chloe, is 17yrs and she’s been in my life since I was 6 years old. My rabbit, Eevee, was dumped and abandoned at a nearby field, and I found her while on a walk. She’s been with me for nearly 3yrs now. Then came my cat, Ponyo, and I’ve had her since she was a kitten, she will be 3yrs in July. I have always loved animals more than people, even more than myself, to be honest. I see every single pet, even ones that aren’t mine, as family, and equally deserving of love and respect. Update: My baby Chloe has recently passed and I am extremely heartbroken. She was my soulmate. I miss her everyday. Grief is love with nowhere to go. If given the opportunity to care for your pet I would not only be helping you but you would be helping me as well. My biggest and only responsibilities are my own little ones, so I am always at home caring for them. I struggle with my mental and physical health, so most regular jobs can be a bit too much pressure on me. I have 3 very different pets in my home that each have different needs. My dog being a senior means I have to pay extra attention to her and be diligent with her care. I am very knowledgeable and experienced in handling different types of animals of all ages.
“Brittany was an amazing host! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily check-ins and pictures. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her home.”
“Jeimy was amazing with our two dogs. She treated them with lots of love and care, as if they were her own. Even with our dog with special needs and hyper fur baby, she was patient and knew exactly how to handle their needs. Communication was great, she provided daily updates with photos while we were on vacation in a different time zone. She was so accommodating and made sure the dogs had everything. I would highly recommend her and book her again!”
“Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.”
“Excellent care for Rocky as always!!! He's truly happy every single time Savanah cares for him. I feel like he's family too her family. Don't want to leave him anywhere else. Thank you”
“Our experience was wonderful. Their dog is super sweet and our two doodles immediately decided this was a place they were excited to be. Great communication and a very pleasant, easy experience.”
“Ash was great with Max. It was last minute and she was very accommodating. I liked the fact that Max was able to hang out with other dogs at Ash's place. Thank you for taking good care of my little old man lol”
“Mariah was excellent with my little guy. I received photos and videos during his stay. I picked him up just as happy as I left him. For sure she is now my sitter. Totally recommend. You will be pleased with her service and her warm personality”

“Had a wonderful experience. Very responsible, communicative, and caring with my cats. Everything was clean and well taken care of when I got back — even the floor was swept. Would definitely book again!”
“Bronte took a last-minute booking to look after our cat Pacho, which we really appreciated. She had no issues handling his picky eating and daily routine. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We would recommend her without hesitation to other pet parents!”
“Jack is a great communicator and took excellent care of my pup! He accommodated my request on short notice, was prompt and I’d highly recommend him to anybody looking for pet care. I will definitely rebook him again.”
“Savannah was great, she was on time every day, took lots of good pics to share with us and rolled with a few last minute requests without any issue. I would definitely recommend and re book her.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and caring for pets now is second nature. I raised and trained my own dog from puppyhood, giving me hands on experience with everything from potty training and basic commands to daily excersise, enrichment, and routine care. As a marathon runner, I am especially well suited for active and high energy dogs. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, runs, hikes, or plenty of playtime, I am happy to help them get the excerise and attention they need. I also grew up with two family dogs and currently help care for my roommates cat, so I am comfortable with different personalties, energy levels, and care needs. Beyond dogs and cats, I've cared for guinea pigs, hamsters, and reptiles. At one point, I was responsible for 8 pets at the same time, which taught me how to stay organized, attentive, and reliable when managing multiple feeding schedules, cleaning routines, and individual needs. My goal is to treat every pet like they're my own and give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving and capable hands. I am currently on summer break from UC Davis and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I am available for drop in visits, dog walking, and house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules and will do my best to work around your pets routine. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I will be extremely thorough and follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, excersise, training, and household rules. Safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention during walks, keep pets secure at all times, and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and enrichment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you are away.
About: I’ve cared for cats for many years and truly understand their unique personalities and routines. I’ve owned two cats and have experience with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving cats the space they need to feel comfortable. Friends and family have trusted me to check in on their cats while they’re away, and I always make sure each cat feels safe, calm, and cared for. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to changes in behavior, and I treat every cat as if they were my own.
“Meghan took such wonderful care of my cat, Beo, while I was away! She sent me photos and thoughtful updates, which really put my mind at ease. I’d happily use her services again!”
“We had an amazing experience with Stefanie. From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. Stefanie took such loving, attentive care of our cats, kept us updated with messages and photos, and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and stress-free while we were away. Coming home to calm, well-cared-for cats gave us so much peace of mind. We’re incredibly grateful and would absolutely trust her again.”
“Marby was absolutely amazing watching my cat, Gable, when I was away. Great communication, sends photos and an update after every visit. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone to watch your pet while you’re away. Thank you Marby!”
“This was my first time using Rover and Lindsay exceeded my expectations! She was communicative, kind, and put my mind at ease while I was away. I could tell by the pictures she sent me of Diamond that she was happy and well taken care of ? I will be using Lindsay again the next time I go out of town.”
“I absolutely love Michelle!! I'm pretty sure there isn't anyone sweeter than her! We came in for a short vacation/concert. We have anxious dogs, and thankfully she has experience with that. She was so helpful and willing to stay with our dogs the whole time we were gone. They fell in love with her!! We were able to have a great time at our event without worrying at all! I cannot recommend her enough. We have had quite a few sitters of the past few years, and she is hands-down the best!!”
“I asked Angela to house sit to keep my cats company and I am so happy I found Angela on here! She is truly the best sitter you could ever ask for. Shes the kindest, most caring and reliable, and went above and beyond to care for my cats. My cats loved their time with her. Would 100% book her again!”
“Regina’s patient and great at assessing what my dogs need. She then gives me helpful feedback, and homework, to work on with them until I see her again. She’s very understanding and makes training manageable. Beyond grateful to be working with her.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and a cute dog for 16 years. I’ve also house-sit/baby-sit dogs, cats and chickens for family and friends. Happy I’m currently going to school full time so this would be perfect for me to do as a part time job and I’m able to work around my schedule. I understand the precautions to keep any dog or pet safe. If there’s anything that you’re worried just let me know and I’ll be more careful with whatever it is!
About: I have cat sat for 15 years. In college my roommate had rescued a cat but I have never physically owned my own. I don’t mind if you have multiple cats. I’ve babysat up to 5 in the same household. I do have experience with both indoor/outdoor cats, as well as cats and dogs that live in the same household. I know how to clean litter boxes. I love trying to teach cats tricks and playing with them. My best of friends over the years own cats and I’m a certified cat auntie :)

“Lauren was fantastic. My cat has some medicinal issues and tends to get really stressed around new people but I came back and he is in great shape. Definitely will ask her to house sit again.”

“Another amazing day for Roo at daycare with Maritza! Our girl came home sooo happy and tired. Maritza sent us lots of updates with our girl playing with new friends and feeling so comfortable and right at home! We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and attention she received. Thank you!”

About: Hi! I’m a devoted pet parent and passionate animal lover who treats every pet like family. For the past 4+ years, I’ve shared my life with my own fur baby, and she’s truly become my best friend. Spending my days caring, playing, and bonding with her has taught me how to build trust, show love, and pay attention to the little things that matter most to animals. What sets me apart is the level of care I bring by being thoughtful, detail-oriented, and heartwarming. I’ve learned to read pets' emotions, recognize when something isn’t quite right, and respond quickly. After navigating health issues with my own pup, I know how to stay calm, be prepared, and act fast when needed, always putting their safety and comfort first. I'm also very mindful of my surroundings during walks or social encounters. I’ve developed a strong sense of how to read the body language of unfamiliar dogs and can quickly spot when another dog may be feeling anxious or reactive. This helps me avoid risky situations and ensures that the dogs in my care are always safe and well-protected. Whether your pet needs a cuddle buddy, a playful companion, or someone to keep a watchful, loving eye while you’re away, I’m here to give them the same love and care I give my own. I'm currently available full time to care for your pets! I recently moved to the U.S. with my husband and our fur baby due to his job. I am going to school to learn english as english is my second language so I hope that Rover also gives me the oportunity to meet many animal lover parents and helps me get more involved with the community. On the side I love working out and when I am not with my family or at school I am typically running and excercising, as that is a big part of my life. I’m here to provide the specific care your pet needs whether it’s a visit, a walk, respecting their space, offering a safe crate or area to relax, or keeping track of feeding times. I pay close attention to every detail to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your furry family member, so I’m happy to send as many photos and videos as you’d like. I truly love making pet parents feel calm and confident that their baby is in great hands.

We get to hang out all day since I’m home full time.

“Brittanie was very responsive with all of my messages and sent photos of my pup throughout the day. I appreciate having flexibility with pickup and drop off times. Would definitely recommend!”
“Qtip does so well with Omolara! I think he has a lot of fun there because at the end of the day he doesn’t want to leave her and her kids! She updates me with pics and videos and is very good with communication. Highly recommend!”
“Our girl, Phoebe, had a FANTASTIC day with Lisa and friends. Thank you, Lisa, for taking our pup for the day! She was excited to be home but ready for bed from her very fun day! Thank you for the videos as well!!”
About: Hello there! My husband, two kids, and I live in East Long Beach. Feel free to send me a message to see what we can schedule! Thank you for your time! I currently work part-time from home. My kids (ages 5 & 11) love animals too and they help me out with routine, safety, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for. We are great at following each pet's routine closely based on the owner's instructions. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, light exercise, and any medications as directed. We make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for during each visit, clean up after meals or play, and provide photos so owners know their pet is doing well.
“Can’t stress enough how amazing Caroline is with high stress dogs. Belu had a lot of anxiety when I tried to leave, but she was able to work with him and get him to calm down. Thank you so much.”
“Brittany was delightful to work with….prior to finalizing the booking we did a meet and greet and that allowed us to quickly see how natural she was with our pup, Reggie. Reggie immediately responded in a very positive manner to Brittany. Brittany’s own dog was mellow and good with Reggie. The day we dropped Reggie off, as soon as I got her out of the car she headed right for Brittany’s front door! Brittany is enthusiastic and caring, and put us at ease that we made the right decision choosing her, we will be rebooking with her soon! One last thing Brittany is great at communicating and sent multiple pictures to us of Reggie. Thanks Brittany see you again soon.”
“My dog, Abbie, loves Angie. The minute she saw Angie she was so excited. That says it all, dogs can tell when they are in the presence of a good person and a dog lover. Angie is great with Abbie. She took care of her for 10 hours on Abbie's first stay. She sent us pictures and a video, and Abbie looked very content to be in Angie's home. We are happy we found Angie on Rover.com to take care of our precious family member.”
“Mariah was wonderful with both our babies! She is so sweet and I can tell my doggy’s loved her. We are are turning Friday lol…that’s how great she is! Definitely 5 star review⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: We send pictures with updates while you are away. We even offer face time visits! Your puppy is in the best hands in Los Angeles county! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—whether it’s morning walks, mealtime cuddles, or evening play sessions. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for them never feels like a task—it’s something I look forward to every day. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow their routines closely—meals, walks, playtime, and any special care they need—while giving them plenty of attention and affection. I treat each pet like family, creating a calm and happy environment they can thrive in, even while their humans are away
“Michelle was extremely kind with Rocky!! She sent multiple photos and updates with what he was up to. She acted like she already knew him which I’m sure made him feel comfortable and safe! Michelle was flexible with pick up time and I’d definitely book again!”
“Mireya was terrific with our senior pup. She allowed us to do a meet-and-greet the day before so our pup could become familiar with her house. The next day our dog was ready and excited to go back. Mireya provided Abbie with a walk while we were away and we were pleased with the care she was given.”

“The pups had a great time! I could tell from the look on their faces on the adorable pics sent to me while I was away. No complaints and I have plans to request Brionna again in the future!”
“Adriana is the best! Our golden Blu is excited to see her every week to the point of waiting for her at the front door. You can tell she really cares about the family members she takes care of.”
“Marby is the best! Couldn’t meet with her the first time, my dog was a little apprehensive and she stayed extra time to allow her to warm up. The next day she came back and they were fast friends! She is patient and goes above and beyond!”
“Lindsay is great! Our rescue, Sammy, can be quite a handful but Lindsay jumped right in. She gave us frequent updates and photos. Sammy seemed to warm up quickly with her and enjoy his walks! ”
“Michelle is heaven-sent to us! She walks our dog, Cali, 3x a week and Cali always looks forward to his walk with her. During the past Christmas holiday, Cali stayed with her and she took care of him just like her own fur babies. Michelle is very reliable, trustworthy, and constantly updates us by sending pictures consistently, communicates clearly and kindly. If I could rate her more than 5 stars, I would! She gives us peace of mind, knowing Cali is in good hands. Thank you so much, Michelle!”
“Angela was amazing with my boy Storm while we were on vacation!! She was communicative, attentive, and showed she really cared about my dog. She constantly sent pictures and I can see how happy he was in all of them! Contingent she’s available, I will definitely be asking for her help again the next time we’re out of town.”
“My dog loves Issis' walks better than he likes mine. He has trained me to walk him like he does. Issis is amazing to him, really cares about him, and spoils him with a few extra minutes. As for me, I love that she's respectful, non judgmental (my home is messy!!), responsible, flexible, accommodating, and she communicates well! The saddest part about moving away from here is that Morgan doesn't get to see Issis anymore. We're very lucky to have met her and she's worth every penny (and then some).”
“Brittany has a very warm, welcoming energy that immediately hooked Stanley at our meet and greet - they were fast friends! We really appreciated her communication and professionalism - and already have her lined up for future walks! Highly recommend Brittany”

About: Your doggie will receive extra care from me as I am a stay at home mom focused solely on pet sitting. We are an animal loving household in suburban Lakewood, CA with a large fenced backyard. We have a doggie door on the back door for our pups to go in and out as they please to play, run, or sunbathe (while I am home of course). I have the help of my awesome husband Ryan and our kids aged 10, 5 and 2. They know all about how to treat pets as they have grown up with our dogs. Your pup is welcome to snuggle with us on the couch and beds wherever they are most comfortable. I have 32 years of experience taking care of pets and have a love and passion for animals. I have very much enjoyed pet sitting with Rover since joining in 2019. I have doggie beds, bowls, toys, etc. here but you are welcome to bring any items your pet may like to have during their stay. I am usually available and always flexible with scheduling a meet n greet as well as drop off and pick up times to fit your busy schedule. I know how important finding a trusted and knowledgeable caretaker is for the furry member of your family! You can rest easy knowing they are in my care with regular updates and pictures.
About: I have been adopting cats and dogs and enjoy taking care of them since I was in college. And I recently began dog sitting for my neighbor's dog and realized how much I enjoy it. It's such a pleasure taking care of pups! I work from home so your pup will be with me playing outside or cuddling indoors. **Certified in Dog & Cat First Aid and CPR through the American Red Cross. I work from home and have a flexible schedule and i would be available to attend to your pet during the day as well as some evenings and overnight . I have a fenced backyard and enough room for your pup to play and run around and I also have a friendly small dog named Fluffy who is 5 yrs old.
About: I’ve raised and taken care of dogs since I was a little girl. My family and I have always had rescue dogs and continue to rescue. I rescued my most recent pup since she was less than a year old. I truly have a love for dogs and treat each one I come across as my own. I’m very comfortable with small to mid size dogs. Open to large dogs as well. Hope to meet you and your fur baby soon :) I have a flexible schedule. During the weekday I’m available usually afternoon and evenings and on the weekends I’m available anytime. Mornings, and afternoons preferred. Thank you. Currently unable to care for pets in my house but if at client’s residence it depends on the space. Comfortable with leash or leash less environment for the dogs. Depends on client’s preference.
About: I have raised two puppies of my own, a German shepherd and a border collie mix. I have been there through their training and was there to take care of them during their neutering aftercare. Both are the sweetest and most lovable pets to me and my family. I also have dog-sat for family members and friends and all of them left me good reviews. They relied on me to play and feed their dogs accordingly. I would consider myself a golden retriever sitter as I have so much energy to run and play with my fur friends. Don't get me wrong though, I also enjoy a good lazy day to stay inside and cuddle! I am on summer break and am available to pet set whenever is needed! I love being outdoors and with nature but I can also just stay inside and have a comfy day! I live in a small apartment so my place might only be ideal for smaller dogs. However, I have no problem staying nights with pups who need someone. I will base my energy off of each individual pup. I know some love attention more than others and I will do my best to make sure your pup feels comfortable with me. I am always ready for play time and walks! I can am also very aware of my surroundings and won't let them out of my sight if needed.
About: From taking care of my first love Chocolate(she was a beautiful chocolate lab) at the age 7 , to sharing a Maltese named Snoopy with my best friend in high school, to watching my college roommates blue nose pit and greyhound; I’ve become the designated dog sitter for all my friends and family. While i love running and playing with young pups, I am never opposed to cuddling up with the more seasoned pups. I have clients who only need me to check in on their fur babies while they’re away which also is not a problem. Im currently working from home so i have 24 hours to give to your fur baby. I am flexible with extended stays as long as communicated. In my home i have a fenced side yard. There are also several dog parks nearby that i visit frequently when sitting. I have a large dog bed as i often sit larger dogs but your fur baby will regardless of size or gender will feel right at home.
About: Hi! My name is Lauren, As the Pet Whisperer I would be thrilled to provide the Ultimate TLC for your fur baby :) ** My signature 5-star service on Rover is House Sitting ** since 2018 as I have resided in Los Angeles/OC, New York City, and Bay Area. I have also provided 100+ walks and drop-in visits on Wag and am available for those services on Rover as well. What You Can Expect: (T) Tender / Trustworthy: Above all, I believe Communication is Key for all of my pet family clients, and I make sure you are kept up to date with messages and pictures as often as requested while being responsive to any questions or concerns you may have - from prior to booking and throughout the stay. (L) Loving / Listener: I am adaptive to your pet's personality and temperament, attentive to whatever their heart desires (to an extent :P) while maintaining boundaries, rules, and expectations per your instructions on their routine, diet, training, and any special needs as their paw parent. (C) Care / Consistency: I have had the pleasure of working with over 80 satisfied clients (18 repeat clients) for pet care, and I provide only the utmost quality of services. My repeat fur families become very much like my own fur fam, and I would be honored to join yours :) Background: Since the early days of caring for my beloved family pupper of 9 years Maltipoo Andy (may He Rest in Peace), caring for dogs and cats alike as a grad student on Wag and Rover since 2018, and now being the proud auntie of four fur nieces + nephew (Ragdoll kween Kanani, Russian Blue muffin Hanya plus bb Tabbies Annie and Taruken - all rescues now in their furever homes) - I treat my clients' pets with the same love, care, and respect as if they were my own while remaining mindful of any specific needs and taking the time to learn about their unique personalities. Summary: Essentially, I am open to accommodating as much as able, as I understand every family's situation and needs are different. Most of all, it is my top priority that you feel assured about the care your fur baby is going to receive, especially in the comfort of your/their own home. That is my Pet Whisperer Promise to you, and please do let me know if you still have any questions. I look forward to connecting with you and your fur family further - ready to provide them all the TLC they deserve <3 Scheduling: I am available for weekday, weekend, and extended stays. Please feel free to discuss additional times with me, and I can confirm my availability. I ensure that attention and care is provided to my clients' pets by giving them space to first become familiar with me in their home and allowing them to freely approach me when comfortable - Meet and Greets are very helpful for this in addition to reviewing their routine, location of supplies, house rules/keeping etc. For house sittings in particular, I maintain cleanliness and respect my clients' homes (e.g. 5-star Airbnb guest), leaving them exactly how I entered while being attentive to any household maintenance needs (with additional surcharges, ranging per level of need e.g. cleaning, mail/packages, plant care).

“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Lianna did a great job with Diesel and Taquito. She was able to meet me at car to assist in bringing the overnight items. I was invited in to meet the other dogs staying the night which allowed my dogs to settle in. She was transparent in what the flow would be for the stay and sent pics 2x a day. I would use her again! It was a great experience.”
“Alexandra is the best of the best! She is a major dog lover and made us feel very comfortable while our baby Timber was spending time with her. We received daily pictures and updates, as well as ensured any of our special requests were met. Her home is clean and secure, which is a major plus! We will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitters! They took such great care of our dogs and truly went above and beyond. They walked them regularly, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What impressed us most was how attentive they were to each of our dogs’ individual personalities and specific needs. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after and took the time to make sure every one of our dogs was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. To top it all off, they ended our booking with a fantastic report card that summarized everything our dogs did while we were away. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed just how dedicated they are. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will absolutely be booking with them again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitters!”
About: I’ve had pets since as long as I could remember. Right now, I have 3 babies that are my whole world. My dog, Chloe, is 17yrs and she’s been in my life since I was 6 years old. My rabbit, Eevee, was dumped and abandoned at a nearby field, and I found her while on a walk. She’s been with me for nearly 3yrs now. Then came my cat, Ponyo, and I’ve had her since she was a kitten, she will be 3yrs in July. I have always loved animals more than people, even more than myself, to be honest. I see every single pet, even ones that aren’t mine, as family, and equally deserving of love and respect. Update: My baby Chloe has recently passed and I am extremely heartbroken. She was my soulmate. I miss her everyday. Grief is love with nowhere to go. If given the opportunity to care for your pet I would not only be helping you but you would be helping me as well. My biggest and only responsibilities are my own little ones, so I am always at home caring for them. I struggle with my mental and physical health, so most regular jobs can be a bit too much pressure on me. I have 3 very different pets in my home that each have different needs. My dog being a senior means I have to pay extra attention to her and be diligent with her care. I am very knowledgeable and experienced in handling different types of animals of all ages.
“Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.”
“Our experience was wonderful. Their dog is super sweet and our two doodles immediately decided this was a place they were excited to be. Great communication and a very pleasant, easy experience.”
“Ash was great with Max. It was last minute and she was very accommodating. I liked the fact that Max was able to hang out with other dogs at Ash's place. Thank you for taking good care of my little old man lol”
“Laura took amazing and loving care of our pup while we were away for a weekend. She gave us thoughtful updates and hippo loved her spacious yard which he was able to play in and explore during his stay!”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! Jamie was incredibly kind, responsible, and attentive. It was clear from the start that she & her family truly love animals and treated our pup like part of their family. Communication was great throughout, and we got sweet updates that gave my husband & I peace of mind. I highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you Jamie!”
“Marlo is wonderful! She genuinely loves her dogs, and she puts so much time and effort into giving them the best time ever. We trust her so much, and she gives the cutest updates. Thank you, Marlo!”

“Sabrina was wonderful with my dog Lucy. She sent frequent updates of Lucy’s demeanor and wellbeing. Sabrina also took Lucy for walks daily and kept to her feeding schedule as requested. 10 out of 10 recommend!”
“Caroline took excellent care of Penny for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. We missed Penny so much but Caroline kept us up to date everyday with photos/videos of how Penny was doing. Highly recommend Caroline!”
“Chris is amazing! He is super chill and amazing with dogs. My dog Fenchy had a really good time for 4 days. Chris updated me with pictures and I can tell that my doggy had her own little holiday with Chris. She loved him! I can only recommend Chris - thank you so much for taking such a great care over my baby 🥰”
“Irene is so wonderful! I had 2 weeks of travel planned and had just gotten a new puppy. I was so nervous about leaving him because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and needed to be kept inside. Irene was so accommodating and communicative. My dog absolutely loves her and was treated like he was a part of her family. Will be using Irene again in the next couple weeks!”
“Maria was so great! Really thoughtful and I can tell Lupo had a great time with her. She sent a lot of pictures keeping me updated and made me feel really comfortable leaving Lupo behind. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Tal & Danny took great care of my 6 month old pup! It was my first time boarding and I was a little nervous about it. I received updates and pics throughout the day and evening, and my pup looked like he was having a great time in their huge back yard. Thank you both for taking care of Moose. We'll see you guys again soon!”
“Christa was awesome! She was flexible and really helped me out with a last-minute booking. I appreciated her reliability and would definitely book with her again.”
