“Ximena took great care of my dog, Noodles, while my family was on vacation. She has a great backyard, took Noodles to the park for walks, and sent pictures and video updates while we were away so I knew my dog was happy and well taken care of. Noodles felt very comfortable with Ximena and her family. She can be anxious but she settled in easily and had fun playing with Ximena's dog Fluffy. Ximena is easy to talk to and friendly. I will be booking with her again!”
“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”
“First time using this app and leaving Moose overnight elsewhere with a sitter. Maritza, huge thank you for making sure myself and Moose had a great experience by keeping him safe and happy and keeping me updated and sharing pictures of Moose throughout the day. It was evident Moose had fun hanging out with all of the other pups. The yard is spacious and filled with fun for my 50lb pup. And lastly thank you for replying to my request promptly!!”
“Angela provided exceptional care for Mousse during our ten‑day trip. Since this was the first time we’d ever left him — and given his anxiety and barking — we expected it to be difficult. Instead, Angela handled him with confidence and kindness, and he quickly warmed up to her and her beagle, Kona. Her frequent photo and video updates while we were in Japan made a huge difference for us. She ensured Mousse stayed active, comfortable, and well‑supported with walks, playtime, and dog‑park visits. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends and family.”
“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.”
“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.”
About: I have been around dogs all my life. I rescued and raised my own terrier mixes, including my senior dog, Annie who is 12. I have cared for neighbors’ dogs of all sizes. I’ve attended numerous training classes for my own dogs. I love being with dogs and will treat yours like family. I am a school teacher and have weekends and summers off. During the summer I have more availability, mornings, afternoons and evenings. During the school year I am available in the evenings and weekends. I have a small fenced in backyard. My little dog Annie gets along well with other dogs. I walk my her twice a day every day. I understand the importance of a routine, attention and playtime.
“Brittany was awesome. Sent me photos regularly and was soooo sweet to my dog!!! She has a backyard for the pups to run around in and even let my pup sleep in her bed ??? I will 10/10 be using her again, she is my go to girl now. Highly recommended!!!”
“Marby treated our Schnauzer puppy like her own! He received lots of love & lots of walks. Marby sent us daily texts & photos of Rockie’s activities. My pup loved his “vacation” with Marby. I would definitely have her keep Rockie again. I’d give her 10 stars if I could and so would Rockie!”
“A perfect experience! Angie is amazing. She took such good care of my little one. When I picked him up he was so calm and chill! Usually he can’t wait to jump back into my arms…and that was not the case this time. LOL. Her house is perfect with a danced in back yard, that he had access to all day. Angle sent me constant updates, photos and videos...which I LOVED. 5 STARS all around! Ziggy will definitely be back. Thank you so much for everything Angie!”
“If we could rate more than 5 stars we would!! Corinne and Louis took such great care of our Barry boy! They were super great at communicating and keeping us updated with pictures of Barry throughout his stay. They kept Barry active with playing fetch and going on plenty of walks! We definitely will be booking again in the future! Thank you so much Corinne and Louis!”
“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!”
“Chewie (and I) had a great experience with Mariah. Very communicative. Sent plenty of update pics to give us peace of mind that Chewie was doing fine. He even smelled better when we got him back (she gave him a bath 😃). Drop off and pickup was super easy as there was plenty of places to park. Overall a A+++++++ experience! Oh and the price was awesome too!”
“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!”
“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“If your dogs are your children like mine are, you definitely want someone like Alexandra to watch over them. I was able to leave Leo in her care for almost 3 weeks and I never once worried that he wasn’t getting the best love and care possible. In other words, I was able to enjoy my vacation! Alexandra is great!”
“Karina was great always kept us updated With photos and videos. Simba had a great time with her. Will definitely use her services again. Knowing Simba was safe it made us enjoy our trip, plus he made lots of furry friends. Thank you so much.”

“Adriana was amazing! She took such great care of our mama cat and two 4 week old kittens, one of whom was sick and needed twice daily antibiotics and weighing. She even noticed the kittens were starting to escape the playpen and helped us reconfigure it to keep them safe. She was super gentle, responsive, and cared a lot about our babies. Her daughters were also wonderful and helped give the kittens much needed socialization. We felt totally at ease while we were away. Adriana has our full trust, and couldn’t have done it without her!”
“We are glad we chose Savannah to care for our two cats, she is very professional, punctual and truly cared for our babies. We highly recommend her and we will be using her in the future without hesitation. Great job, highly recommend!!!”
“Daizy was very attentive and tended to my cat's needs and personality during her drop-ins. She definitely made me feel better about leaving my cat under her care. She's thorough and detailed with her check-ins. I highly recommend Daizy if you're looking for someone to look after your cat with the utmost care.”
About: Growing up in a rural environment with many kinds of animals has given me a unique perspective on connecting with them. I fed, cared for and played with many dogs and cats at one time and over a great many years. I look forward to treating your pet with the greatest of care and respect!
“Bronte looked after our cat Pacho for five days. We got photos and updates after each drop-in visit. It was clear Pacho loved her. Bronte is caring, communicative and trustworthy and I would without hesitation recommend her to other pet parents.”
About: I’ve taken care of my grandmothers cats in Nicaragua for years. I stay compassionate twords from the shyest to “aggressive” cats and they even grow affectionate to me. I’ll always treat any animal with kindness and respect!
“As a first-time Rover user, I can honestly say that Stefanie put all my concerns at ease. She was very good at communicating and making sure she had all the information necessary. My shy furbaby took an immediate liking to her during our meet-and-greet. During her 30-minute visits, I received thorough updates, as well as pictures to reassure me everything was ok. When I returned from my trip, kitty was as chipper as ever. Without a doubt, I would trust Stefanie to look after my cat the next time I am out of town. I absolutely recommend Stefanie to anyone in need of a petsitter.”
“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.”
“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!”
About: As a lifelong dog lover, I understand their needs for a fun, caring and safe environment. I’m confident to be a reliable pet sitter for ur furry friend. I have my own best friend who loves belly rubs so I can say I’m an expert on bully rubs and having a good time . I’m currently a college student who has a good amount of free time for walks and care. My morning work best but afternoon are great as well. Whether I'm in my own home or theirs, I maintain a clean and safe environment. I’ll always make sure to get details from owners about the needs and preferences their pets have.
“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!”
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.
“Angie took fabulous care of our Ruby while we were away. She communicated regularly, was very responsive and we really enjoyed the photos and videos she sent us. It was our first time leaving Ruby in the care of someone other than a friend, and we would hire Angie again in a heartbeat.”
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 :)
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.
About: I’ve have had pets for all my life ( from big dogs to small teacups)! I have two babies , a maltipoo named Beaux and a Maltese/ Shitszu named Summer. Both dogs had puppies In October 2024, thank I helped care for and sold along with my mom. Can’t wait to spend time and care for your pets ! I am free on weeknights because I work during the day until 5pm and open on weekends from 7am to 7pm! Cancellations - 24 hour notice preferably! My dogs eat at a certain time and I ensure that their water is refilled daily. I clean their pause and ensure no hazardous grass or items are stuck on their fur. My babies get lots of hugs, kisses, and rubs.

“Ximena watched my Macie girl and my dog had a great day with her. After Macie warmed up to Ximena, they were buddies plus her dog and mine got along splendidly. I will definitely bring Macie over there again for a play day.”
“We had a change of plans and urgently needed a day care last minute. Maritza was so accommodating and I’m glad we found her as she went above and beyond caring for Finn and provided us regular updates throughout the day! Finn had so much fun with his new friends and didn’t want to leave 😭. We will definitely be using Maritza again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Marby is an excellent sitter! Every time I pick up my baby, she is happy, content, and well cared for. I especially appreciate how Marby keeps me updated throughout the day with messages and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. I’m so grateful for the care, attention she provides. I truly appreciate knowing my baby is in good hands, and I will definitely continue booking with Marby! 🤍”
“We absolutely loved Angie! As a first time fur mommy I had never experienced leaving my puppy anywhere. She’s used to be only with my daughter and I and honestly I think she didn’t miss us! Angie’s family took her in with much love. She constantly sent videos and pictures that made me smile and feel comfortable knowing Latte was well taken care of. Wish Angie much success in what she does because she’s great. I had her with daycare and became overnight which happened out of a family emergency and Angie was extremely accommodating. Can’t wait to book again her!”
“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!”
“Sophia came for a first visit and had a great time. Amy her host communicated well and provided updates throughout. Sophia hadn’t been with a dog sitter for over one month but seemed happy when we picked her up. We will definitely come back again!”
“Denise was great! She took good care of my pup, playing with her and taking her on walks. I will definitely book her again and I highly recommend her! Great service!”
About: I grew up with dogs, and so did my wife, so caring for them has always been a part of our lives. We recently said goodbye to our own dog after 16 wonderful years together, and we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with a beloved family member. Because I work from home, your dog will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. We provide a safe, comfortable, dog-friendly home where every pup is treated with patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing, playing, or going for walks, we’ll do our best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel right at home.

My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs consistent attention and keep them on their normal routine Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and no other pets in the home, allowing us to focus on your dog’s individual needs.

About: I’m a true animal lover, they have always been a big part of my life, and over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to parakeets and fish. Dogs have held a special place in my heart for over 20 years, and the bond I’ve shared with my own has taught me just how deeply pets feel love, patience, and consistency. Caring for animals truly brings me joy, I have a special soft spot for senior dogs who may need extra care, medications, or a little more tenderness and attention. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Clear communication helps ensure the best experience for everyone, so I kindly ask that drop-off and pick-up times are accurate and that you let me know as soon as possible if plans change. Drop-off and pick-up hours are between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM. Please note: For the safety, comfort, and happiness of all pets, dogs in my care must be fully house-trained and get along very well with other dogs. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, and my flexible schedule allows me to spend lots of one-on-one time with them. I love giving plenty of cuddles, playtime, and gentle exercise, making sure each pet feels relaxed, happy, and truly at home while you’re away. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and love taking dogs on easy, enjoyable walks through calm streets or over to a nearby park for some fresh air and fun. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs and always follow your instructions carefully. Above all, I focus on keeping every pup safe, comfortable, and happy, making sure they feel loved and well cared for the whole time they’re with me. 🐾
“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!”
“I can’t recommend Mariah enough! She cared for my dog, Lexi, with such kindness and compassion. Mariah was incredibly accommodating and responsive, always making sure Lexi’s needs were met. Her extra care and attention to detail really put me at ease. Above all, Mariah’s understanding and compassionate nature stood out. She kept me updated throughout, and her excellent communication made the entire experience stress-free. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would happily trust her with Lexi again!”
About: We have both had dogs almost all of our lives. We have experience with puppies, young dogs, middle aged dogs and seniors. Having recently lost our last one (a Malti-Tzu) at the age of 15, we have even more senior experience, including injections, picky eaters, giving meds (pills, drops, foams, sprays, etc). One of us is almost always home, so your dog/s will usually have someone there giving them love and attention. We live in a quiet neighborhood with good sidewalks to get some good sniffs and walks in too. Working from home gives us plenty of time with your dog. Occasionally we will need to go run errands or to an appointment, so your dog would not be alone long, if that happens to overlap. We get up somewhat early, between 6-7:30 am, and can walk your dog/s then, and as needed throughout the day, along with a longer daily walk if your pup needs it, and then an evening walk around 8:00 pm, or whatever your dogs needs are. We like to tailor our care to your dog’s needs, be it more active and wanting more play time and walks, or more downtime and cuddles. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and general dog supplies, and just enjoy being with them and making them happy…and maybe even a little spoiling :)
“Jacquelyne was an amazing sitter and took such great care of my cockapoo for a few days. I always felt good about dropping him off and knew he was in good hands. Great communication and photos along the way as well!”
“Oso had a great time! He loved spending time at Lauren's and seemed less than excited to leave. Lauren's dog Koa is a chill guy and didn't mind that Oso was bouncing around in his backyard. Oso had a deep snooze when he got home after his fun day.”
“Tucker had a wonderful time and stay. He had a lot of fun. His sitter gave us updates on how he was doing. He’ll be sure to want to visit and stay because he’ll know he’ll be taken good care of!!!!”
“Lisa is really good with dogs and very considerate with me and my “special needs” dog. She sends photos and videos showing how well my dog is doing through the day and makes me feel good knowing he is enjoying himself with other dogs.”
“Caroline was wonderful taking care of my two dogs. She played with them, took them on a walk and fed them. One of my dogs has arthritis and is on pain medication. Also their diet is complicated with five different types of food plus supplements. Caroline was great at preparing their meal and giving one dog her medicine. She kept me informed on how they were doing and they really enjoyed their time with her. Caroline is a fantastic dog sitter and I could relax knowing they were in such good hands.”

About: I grew up around pups—my grandmother ran an animal rescue, and my grandfather had six dogs at once. Since then, I’ve been the go-to walker, feeder, and bather for friends, neighbors, and family. I’m especially great with high-energy pups and senior dogs, and I always go the extra mile to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy! Pet care is a core part of my daily and weekly schedule. I currently walk dogs multiple times a week, and I plan my other responsibilities around their needs. Whether it’s a quick midday potty break or a longer afternoon walk, I always show up on time and give each pet my full attention and energy. In a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm and familiar environment for their pet. I stick closely to the routine the owner has in place, whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, or play preferences, so their pet feels safe and at ease.
“Our Belle loves Denise! She already knows when Denise is outside our home and gets super excited 😍 Denise is very patient and we appreciate that because our Belle is very hyper happy bulldog 😍😍😍 She’s responsible and I love that she communicates well with us.”
“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!”

I fed, cared for and played with many dogs and cats at one time and over a great many years. I look forward to treating your pet with the greatest of care and respect! Pet care is self care!!

The only sign that I want to leave that I’ve been in your space is a happy pet!
“Morty is always excited to see Marby when she comes to walk him! She saved us and was able to come on such short notice within a few hours and walk him. Really appreciate it!”

About: When I was born my family already had 2 cats and 2 dogs. Once they passed we got two more cats and 2 more dogs. Since then we’ve gotten a few more cats that were strays and needed a home. I love to care for pets because they’re always there when I need them. I work part-time so it is easy for me to find time to care for animals. It’s something I’m passionate about and I want to help out as much as I can. We have a pretty spacious backyard where our dogs can run around. We keep all of our cats inside due to losing a couple in the past to some tragic outside accidents.
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 .

“Paul was great with Albus. He showed up on time every day and was able to easily handle our energetic guy. If he can handle our 165lb dog he can handle yours too. We would definitely have him walk Albus again!”
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.
About: We’ve been taking care of dogs for many years. My daughter works with me so we can care for your pets most of the day and night. Love to take the dogs on walks, play with them, be loving. I don't charge for bathing your dog or combing their hair daily if they stay for several days. Want to go to Happy Hour or last minute dinner, no worries. Will be glad to help so you can have fun. Im currently very flexible in meeting a wide range of schedules or last minute requests. Have a pet friendly home and nice gated backyard for them to run around or lay down and enjoy the day. Fenced in yard privacy fences in both sides and added abs extra gate in front in case a dog tries to run out they will be safe
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’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’m a true animal lover, they have always been a big part of my life, and over the years I’ve cared for everything from dogs and cats to parakeets and fish. Dogs have held a special place in my heart for over 20 years, and the bond I’ve shared with my own has taught me just how deeply pets feel love, patience, and consistency. Caring for animals truly brings me joy, I have a special soft spot for senior dogs who may need extra care, medications, or a little more tenderness and attention. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. I do everything I can to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Clear communication helps ensure the best experience for everyone, so I kindly ask that drop-off and pick-up times are accurate and that you let me know as soon as possible if plans change. Drop-off and pick-up hours are between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM. Please note: For the safety, comfort, and happiness of all pets, dogs in my care must be fully house-trained and get along very well with other dogs. Caring for pets is a natural part of my day, and my flexible schedule allows me to spend lots of one-on-one time with them. I love giving plenty of cuddles, playtime, and gentle exercise, making sure each pet feels relaxed, happy, and truly at home while you’re away. I live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood and love taking dogs on easy, enjoyable walks through calm streets or over to a nearby park for some fresh air and fun. I pay close attention to each dog’s individual needs and always follow your instructions carefully. Above all, I focus on keeping every pup safe, comfortable, and happy, making sure they feel loved and well cared for the whole time they’re with me. 🐾

“Where do I begin? Dominique is Absolutely Amazing. She took care of Paris so well went above and beyond took her own walks. Gave her extra treats and extra love. She sent me pictures and videos of Paris and what she was doing throughout the days. I am greatly appreciative of finding her and the quality of care that she gave our little fur baby. I was so thankful and ungrateful for her care that we have already rebooked twice with her for future engagements. Thank you so much, Dominique. We greatly appreciate you and Paris had a ball.”
“First time using this app and leaving Moose overnight elsewhere with a sitter. Maritza, huge thank you for making sure myself and Moose had a great experience by keeping him safe and happy and keeping me updated and sharing pictures of Moose throughout the day. It was evident Moose had fun hanging out with all of the other pups. The yard is spacious and filled with fun for my 50lb pup. And lastly thank you for replying to my request promptly!!”
“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.”
“Brittany was awesome. Sent me photos regularly and was soooo sweet to my dog!!! She has a backyard for the pups to run around in and even let my pup sleep in her bed ??? I will 10/10 be using her again, she is my go to girl now. Highly recommended!!!”
“If we could rate more than 5 stars we would!! Corinne and Louis took such great care of our Barry boy! They were super great at communicating and keeping us updated with pictures of Barry throughout his stay. They kept Barry active with playing fetch and going on plenty of walks! We definitely will be booking again in the future! Thank you so much Corinne and Louis!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“If your dogs are your children like mine are, you definitely want someone like Alexandra to watch over them. I was able to leave Leo in her care for almost 3 weeks and I never once worried that he wasn’t getting the best love and care possible. In other words, I was able to enjoy my vacation! Alexandra is great!”
About: We have both had dogs almost all of our lives. We have experience with puppies, young dogs, middle aged dogs and seniors. Having recently lost our last one (a Malti-Tzu) at the age of 15, we have even more senior experience, including injections, picky eaters, giving meds (pills, drops, foams, sprays, etc). One of us is almost always home, so your dog/s will usually have someone there giving them love and attention. We live in a quiet neighborhood with good sidewalks to get some good sniffs and walks in too. Working from home gives us plenty of time with your dog. Occasionally we will need to go run errands or to an appointment, so your dog would not be alone long, if that happens to overlap. We get up somewhat early, between 6-7:30 am, and can walk your dog/s then, and as needed throughout the day, along with a longer daily walk if your pup needs it, and then an evening walk around 8:00 pm, or whatever your dogs needs are. We like to tailor our care to your dog’s needs, be it more active and wanting more play time and walks, or more downtime and cuddles. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and general dog supplies, and just enjoy being with them and making them happy…and maybe even a little spoiling :)

“Sabrina was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I left our Cattle dog Lucy and pug Dwight with her for one night as a test run and we will definitely be booking her again 😊. From the first messages, Sabrina was very attentive and proactive in making sure she was ready for Lucy and Dwight’s needs. When we dropped them off, her house was impeccably clean and orderly and she was very professional - you can tell she takes pride in taking good care of whoever is in her care. The entire time we were gone, she kept us updated on how Lucy and Dwight were settling in, and sent us pictures of how they were doing. Pick up was a breeze and it was clear L&D had a great time. We would highly recommend her and feel very lucky to have found her 🙏❤️”
