Taking them frequent walks calmed them down. She was patience with them which I loved and kept me updated on a daily.”
“We recently used Soonok as a dog sitter for the first time to care for our senior terrier, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Naturally, we were a bit anxious leaving our older dog in someone else’s care, but Soonok immediately put us at ease. Soonok was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, taking extra care to accommodate our dog’s needs and pace. What really stood out was the consistent communication—we received daily updates and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was in great hands and being treated with genuine care and affection. We’re so grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Soonok to others. We will very likely be using her services again in the future.”

Ness is warm, communicative, and genuinely cares; can’t recommend her enough. We’ll definitely keep coming back!”
“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.”
“Maritza is one of a million dog sitter. I was extremely impressed with her daycare set up. The grounds were extremely clean and her attention to detail to provide the upmost care for your pet. She was extremely accommodating and pleasant to work with. She would provide me updates on my dog Daisy with photos and a detailed report on her interactions with each dog. She also provided an end of day report of Daisy which I was so excited to receive. She had the perfect set up inside her home for a dog to feel they’re right at home. I will always hire Maritza for future sitting services, I would recommend anyone her services, so impressed and filled with much gratitude knowing my furry family member was taken care of. You are the best out there, truly mean it!”
“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.

“Marby and her family was the best sitters my dog could have. I was very nervous at first as it was my first time leaving my dog with a sitter and I couldn’t be happier it was with Marby. They were very kind and open to my dogs needs and qualities. They were very attentive with my pup, they gave me daily updates with lots of pictures which I appreciated and excited for! Throughout my dogs stay, they responded quickly with any updates, and with every picture my pup looked so happy with Mamba too! With them I was at ease. I’m glad my dog was able to with them! Thank you guys so much :)”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina watched our two dogs for one week and we had a wonderful experience. Communication was excellent from the very beginning, and her home was welcoming and well suited for pets. Our dogs were comfortable right away during the meet and greet and showed no hesitation on drop off day. We received regular updates and adorable photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Pick up was easy, with our dogs ready to go and all of their belongings packed and organized. We were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again. Thank you so much!”

“Julie and Maria are premier dog sitters! Our six month old Labrador exudes so much puppy energy and doggy shenanigans where ever he goes but none of it daunted the tender, loving care given by Julie or Maria. They kept our pup busy with walks, dog park visits, special treats and lots of family time for nearly two weeks. And they sent lots of pictures and videos to reassure us that he was having as much fun as we were having on our vacation! We will definitely bring our fur baby back to Julie and Maria for more TLC next time we go out of town.”
“Our dog stayed with YeonSung for a week, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! He took amazing care of her and it was such a relief knowing she was being loved and well looked after while we were away. He was dependable, thoughtful, and gave us many updates with our puppy. Our dog came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very well taken care of. The whole experience was easy and stress-free, and we’d 100% trust him to watch her again. We’re so grateful and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!”
“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.”
“Our dog was in great hands with Jeimy. She was really attentive to our instructions and took the time to chat with us before our boarding stay to ensure that we were comfortable and that she understood the quirks of caring for our senior dog. She sent us lots of photos everyday so we were able to see that our pup was being well cared for. We would definitely rebook with Jeimy again!”
“Leonore & Davis were absolutely fantastic! I just moved to the area and they will definitely be my new go-to sitter. My girl Layne took them immediately and her and Yuki became fast friends. They were unbelievably flexible and understanding (I must have changed our trip plan 5 times), took the best pictures and gave consistent and reassuring updates throughout the sit. It was clear from Day 1 our pup was in the best hands. Highly recommend!”

“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!!”
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 :)
“Daniel has been absolutely fantastic. He always responds promptly, and really loves the dogs. He is an incredibly NICE person, too! He has been visiting the dogs while their owner (my brother) was in the hospital. It was one less worry on my mind. I will use him again any time a sitter is necessary.”
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 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.
“Met Darla for the first time over Rover.com, but right off the bat, she seemed very responsible and dog loving that I had no doubt she’d take good care of our boys. She helped us on Drop In service twice a day to feed the dogs, give injections to one of them who is diabetic, and minor spot cleanings. She was very punctual and provided updates with photos in a timely manner throughout the entire 4 days we were gone. Overall she did an excellent job and would certainly recommend to other neighbors around for any petsitting needs. Thanks again, Darla!!!”
About: I’ve been lucky to have cats all my life. So I’m fully aware of the spectrum they can come in. From the shy, reserved cats to the balls of energy…I love them all. I have experience in caring for cats in a professional setting thanks to PetSmart. I was trained on deep cleaning and administering medications.

“Poppy enjoyed her stay with Ximina and the other pups that were there. It was so nice for me to have a little downtime and do some shopping. But mostly it was wonderful knowing that Poppy was well taken care of.”
“Roo had the best time at daycare! Maritza truly takes such amazing care of our girl and sends so many updates. There’s nothing better than knowing she’s having an amazing time while we’re away!!”
“Ash is an amazing dog sitter and we’re repeat visitors of her service. She always takes plenty of photos for us and we can tell that our pup Maple enjoys her stays. Ash is also patient with my helicopter mom requests and always makes me feel comfortable that Maple is good hands. I highly recommend Ash’s services!”
“Marina has been absolutely amazing! If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies I highly recommend Marina. My puppy pretzel, isn’t very social, and when I brought her to Marina’s house for a meet up, she wasn’t initially friendly towards the other dogs. However, Marina patiently worked with pretzel and carefully introduced her to the group. I am impressed by Marina’s ability to create a calm and welcoming environment. She is incredibly patient, caring, and always goes the extra mile to help. She’s also flexible with scheduling, which has been a huge help! On top of that, her rates are very reasonable!”
“My dog had a fantastic time doing doggie day care! We got lots of pictures sent to us and feel like our dog was taken care of as if he was their family dog. We booked last minute and would not hesitate to book again!”
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.
“Our Teddy had an amazing fun filled day with his party of 4 family + furry friend Sophie. Highly recommended Jamie & family if your baby needs loving, comfy, safe and playful care!”
About: My whole life I’ve always had a dog, cat or both. Fast forward to current I have owned dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, guinea pigs, a tortoise and koi. Sounds crazy, I know, but like myself, my girls were avid animal lovers. I have worked and volunteered for many rescues including wildlife. In the past 17 years I have fostered over 350 dogs, a handful of squirrels and 10 opossums. We’ve had puppies, seniors, blind, deaf, terminally ill and everything in between. I have been looking for something to keep me busy and get me out and about. Since I love and care about animals so much this seemed like the natural thing to do. Currently I have a rescue cat and a tortoise. I understand how difficult it is to find a person to watch your beloved fur babies as I have the same issue when I can’t take mine with me. I am also aware of the different needs that different pets and pet parents have. I will continue any training/behavior,special procedures/schedules that you currently use in your home or out walking with your dog. I know how important it is to know your fur babies are safe and cared for so I will send updates and pictures even videos as often as you would like.
“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.”
“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.”

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: I have worked with over 100 dogs as a dog handler at a dog daycare. I have walked, fed and administered medicine to many pets. Pet care is a regular part of my weekly routine.

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.
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.

About: I’ve been doing pet sitting for over 3 years & have experience in all types of animals & am familiar with giving medication if needed. My main goal is to always ensure that your pet is cared for 100% and that you come back to a clean environment. Will also bring in/take out trash, water plants & bring in mail. I currently work part time so this leaves me with time to spend caring for animals. I am currently available for morning visits from 8am -10am Afternoons 12-3pm Pm 4-7pm Can also do overnight visits on weekends if needed. When I am caring for an animal at a clinics home I always make sure to ask for any information or their routine with their pup. Not only to ensure that I am doing everything right & that needs to be done for your pup but to keep your pup in their routine. This will allow me to get familiar with the feeding, walking, etc. Safety of your pup and your home is my top priority & I ensure this by always making sure to close all doors/windows in your home & set alarm if needed
About: I have loved dogs ever since I got my first dog at age 6. They are the most loving animals and since I can’t have pets in my apartment I believe this is the best way to enjoy them. I did use to have a dog that passed away a few years ago. I was studying to be a veterinarian in college and because of that I have lots of experience taking care of pets. I also use to walk my aunt's dogs and when she was out of town I would go and take care of her 2 German Shepherds. I have always felt like my dogs have always been there for me when I was not feeling myself and because of that I want to give back and help out people that own dogs now that I can’t have anything. I work in the community and create my own schedule, so I am pretty flexible with when I am available. I have more time to take care of them. I will treat your fur baby like my own. With lots of cuddles and care. My dog is my best friend and I will treat your dog the same way.
About: I’ve always been the one for my family and friends to call when they need someone to care for their dog. I don’t mind staying overnights in your home to make sure your fur babies feel safe and loved. I have a special love for senior dogs, I just had to say goodbye to my golden girl. I have the patience for puppies, seeing that I survived my corgi puppy. I have experience in administering meds, even getting the tough pills down. I will keep detailed notes on each dog and exactly what they need. I don’t take pet sitting lightly and I feel lucky to have gained pet parents’ trust when asked to watch their pets. I have so much love for dogs, I hope I’m lucky enough to watch your fur baby. I can make morning calls during the week any time after 8:30am. I’m free all day during the weekends. I can do overnights with 24 hour notice. I will strictly follow the client’s routine with sitting in their home. I know how crucial that routine is to pets. I will not be all routine and no play though. I’ll make sure to have fun interactive things to keeps the pets happy while tiring them out for a goodnight’s sleep.

“This was Ness’s second time watching our pup Pretzel, and she was just as amazing as the first! Pretzel absolutely adores her, and it’s such a comfort knowing she’s in loving, reliable hands. Ness is warm, communicative, and genuinely cares; can’t recommend her enough. We’ll definitely keep coming back!”
“Maritza is one of a million dog sitter. I was extremely impressed with her daycare set up. The grounds were extremely clean and her attention to detail to provide the upmost care for your pet. She was extremely accommodating and pleasant to work with. She would provide me updates on my dog Daisy with photos and a detailed report on her interactions with each dog. She also provided an end of day report of Daisy which I was so excited to receive. She had the perfect set up inside her home for a dog to feel they’re right at home. I will always hire Maritza for future sitting services, I would recommend anyone her services, so impressed and filled with much gratitude knowing my furry family member was taken care of. You are the best out there, truly mean it!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sabrina watched our two dogs for one week and we had a wonderful experience. Communication was excellent from the very beginning, and her home was welcoming and well suited for pets. Our dogs were comfortable right away during the meet and greet and showed no hesitation on drop off day. We received regular updates and adorable photos throughout our trip, which gave us great peace of mind. Pick up was easy, with our dogs ready to go and all of their belongings packed and organized. We were able to fully enjoy our time away knowing our dogs were in excellent hands. I would absolutely book with Sabrina again. Thank you so much!”

It was clear from Day 1 our pup was in the best hands. Highly recommend!”

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.
“Laura was amazing, she immediately assuage our anxiety leaving our precious Macon with her for 2 weeks. Our little one seems so happy with her based on her daily picture updates which really assured us that Macon was in good hands. Thank you Laura for giving us the opportunity to have a great time with our vacation knowing that our little one has great care. I highly recommend Laura if you want peace of mind. ??????”

“Chris was absolutely wonderful! He took exceptional care of Kai, going above and beyond to ensure he was comfortable and happy. His professionalism and attention to detail were evident from the start, and I truly appreciated the frequent updates and numerous photos he provided. It gave me so much peace of mind while traveling, knowing Kai was in such great hands. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely be booking Chris again!”
“Caroline was awesome and the perfect sitter for our dog, Happy! He can be somewhat sensitive which makes it hard for us to leave him with other people, but Caroline was not only attentive and understanding of how he can be, but also very accommodating and communicative with us on how he is doing by sending pictures, videos and constant updates during our entire trip! Her home and neighborhood was also excellent. Highly recommend and will be booking Caroline again in the future!”
