“Alicia and Christian were amazing with gizmo. They were available last minute to watch gizmo and I greatly appreciate that they suggested to have a meet and greet beforehand. Alicia and Christian were great at communicating gizmo’s status and sending plenty of photos. I truly felt like they treated him as if he were theirs and for that I am extremely grateful.”

“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dogs. It was obvious our dogs enjoyed their stay and had fun with them. We got lots of pictures and updates from them. We definitely recommend them and would leave our dogs there again, thanks so much!”
“We are so grateful to Nazgûl, she sent daily photos and updates, which gave us such peace of mind while away. Our cat, Tiggy , was very happy and relaxed when we returned. We will definitely use her again!”

“Michele was amazing with our dog and kept us updated the whole trip! She went above and beyond when our flight was delayed and allowed us to pick our dog up super late at night. Michele will be our go to for a sitter when we need one!”

“First time we had left our Puppy, Button. We were nervous. Diane was so friendly and Button was a little apprehensive. She sent several updates and pictures and when we return to pick him up, he was happy and well cared for and loves Diane. Recommendation direct from Button - She took good care of me, played with me and took me for a walk in her stroller. See you soon. Button”

“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”

“As always Rachel is amazing! I always feel so comfortable leaving my baby in her care, I know he is so loved and cared for when with Rachel and she provides updates the entire time my Tucker is there. Rachel is my go to for boarding and sitting and definitely recommend Rachel!! 💙🐾❤️”


“Erin is a very kind, caring, and professional pet sitter. I have a young puppy, and she took amazing care of Luna during her overnight stay. Not only is Erin knowledgeable about pet care, but she also went above and beyond to make sure Luna felt safe, comfortable, and loved while we were away. Since Luna is still a puppy and can be nervous in new environments, Erin took extra time to help her adjust. She even created a cozy sleeping space and set up a crate for her, which made a huge difference. Erin’s home is very pet-friendly, clean, safe, and well-organized, with everything needed to care for animals properly. I felt completely at ease knowing Luna was in such good hands. Honestly, Erin is one of the best pet sitters we’ve had so far, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to look after their pets. ☺️🫶🏼🐾”

“Sarah is amazing! Exceptional communication throughout the whole stay. Sarah also provided detailed information on how my pup was doing the whole time alongside with a ton of pictures. My pup was having the time of her life! She’s also very knowledgeable and patient with my dog. Would definitely rebook again!”

“Marta was great! She was super responsive, communicated very well and I could tell my dog was in the best hands. She sent me a ton of photos and videos every day! I will definitely use her again in the future!”

“We couldn't have been happier for our puppies first visit away from home. Our pup was very well cared for and we loved the pictures and videos we got every day. They even gave her a bath! We highly recommend this place for dog boarding. It is now our dog's home away from home!”


“Angie was located in a great neighborhood. we felt really comfortable leaving our dogs with Angie. she had a very spacious backyard to include a dog of her own. she was very caring and accommodating while we left our dogs with her for six days and five nights she would send pictures daily as updates. our dogs had no issues when we picked them up. we will definitely hire Angie again. we highly recommend Angie to anyone in the Escondido area.”

“Amanda and her family are the best! This was my dogs' second stay with her and they were completely at ease with this familiar, safe environment. Amanda sent photos every day of their stay and their faces said it all- carefree, calm, and happy! Thank you, Amanda & Co. for accommodating us again!”

“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Josh was a life saver for us! We just moved to California and needed someone we could trust to watch our cat and he was exactly what we were looking for! He was so helpful to us, allowing us to still be able to travel and do what we need to do and know that our cat has a friend to look after them while we are away. So grateful for Josh, he is a must book, you won’t regret it!”

“Sienna was absolutely wonderful with our dog—kind, attentive, and clearly experienced. Communication was excellent throughout, and she was incredibly flexible with some minor changes to the schedule, which we really appreciated since my husband is in the military and had to leave on short notice. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and definitely recommend her!”

“I had never used Rover or any service like it before and I was so nervous. I used the house sitting service and Anna was so sweet and took care of my two cats. Not only were the kitties taken care of and loved on, she kept the house all clean! She sent photos and when I reached out she replied in a very timely manner! Anna made my time away home a lot less stressful knowing she took care of everything so well. Any future trips, I’ll definitely be wanting Anna to watch the cats! Thank you ❤️”

About: Hi I’m Lily! I grew up with 2 dogs and 3 cats and started dog sitting when I was 13. I have 3.5 years of experience working at Lucky Pawz Doggy Daycare in North Liberty, Iowa. During my time there I learned a lot about different breeds, ages, sizes of dogs and how to care for them. I have also been a part time dog sitter/ house sitter in the Iowa City area for the past 6 years. If you’re looking for a sitter, depending on how long the job is, I might ask if it’d be okay that my dog Nonnie came along. She gets along great with other the dogs! I have a 4 year old Border Collie mix named Nonnie that I care for daily. We pretty much wake up, eat, play, eat, go to sleep and repeat. I also dog sit 10-15 days total each month. My yard is fenced in and there’s a park not too far from me which is a great place for playing catch! ! I also have a friendly neighborhood that’s perfect for long walks.
About: We both grew up loving and taking care of our family dogs. When I was in college, I often worked as a dog sitter for neighbors and friends. I was able to build a network who trusted me with their precious pooches. We are still in the process of trying to find a pup of our own but in the meantime, while working from home, we have plenty of time to care for your pet. You can expect lots of snapshots and frequent updates (as often as you’d like) to keep you posted. Whether your furry friend prefers to lounge on the couch or go exploring and running around, we're happy to do what makes them happy! We love hiking, exploring, and discovering the gems in our city! I work from home full time so have the ability and flexibility to be available for your pets needs. Since I am still looking for a dog of my own, it's a great way to love on pups and get my fill of activities with walks or downtime snuggling on the couch. When staying at my home or a client's, I will always follow their guidelines and rules in terms of what is allowed. Mine is a very dog friendly home so they are always welcome on furniture or in the bed as they see fit.
About: Growing up in the country, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahua's to larger, and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit-bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their exercise routines, feeding habits, and personality quirks. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. Rounded up I have five years of experience caring for dogs of different temperaments, sizes, and breeds making knowledge, communication, and compassion key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all types of dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior challenged dogs! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the animals in my care. As a high school graduate, I have the freedom to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I can provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I schedule feeding times, walks, medications, and potty breaks around my coursework, giving each pet the structure they need while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. Having free weekends also allows me to dedicate more time to pets, who need consistent attention or engagement. I use this time for exercise, mental stimulation, or grooming, depending on the dogs needs and abilities. My focus on time management ensures that each pet is always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into their routine. My goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and healthy environment. I can ensure that pet care will fit seamlessly into my routine, allowing me to meet the needs for every dog I meet! Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, nurturing, and comfortable environment that fosters trust and well being. Safety is my top priority, which includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, removing hazardous items, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses and supervise them, and monitor them while off leash closely. Building trust with pets is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, this creates a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, potty breaks, and spending quality time/playing, I strive to create a comfortable environment for each dog I meet. I can ensure they feel valued and cared for, the environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their established routines and follow their care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for the pet. Ultimately, my approach combines attentiveness, compassion, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.

About: I recently took a break from dog sitting to focus on caring for my baby. Now that things have settled into a routine, I'm excited to start accepting bookings again! I have 6+ years dog-sitting experience with dogs of many different sizes and temperaments. Personally I have a 85 pound German Shepherd mix, Turbo, a 40 pound labradoodle, Maple, and an 80 pound Rottie/GSD mix named Tater. I thoroughly enjoy playing with them everyday and have learned many training techniques from raising them. I have a great deal of experience caring for a highly allergic and anxious dog. I understand the helplessness that can often come with trying to find a treatment that works. If your dog has allergies/skin issues, or any other special needs, I'm more than happy to help. Rest assured your dog will be given the love and attention they need to feel comfortable in my home. We do have 1 cat (named Sesame) who would prefer to be left alone. If your dog is very reactive around cats this will not be a good fit. I am a stay- at- home mom and my husband works from home, so we can offer a great amount of flexibility with drop-off and pick-up times. Your dog will be supervised 24/7 when in my care. I have a large (2.3 acre), fully-fenced backyard for optimal play! I have three friendly dogs who would love to show your dog all the best sniff spots. We also love going on walks, playing fetch, taking naps, and playing "find it." I've taken a dog CPR class to better understand the warning signs of a dog in distress, and what actions to take in an emergency. Being a pet parent myself, I greatly understand the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dog is safe and happy. Therefore, I will always send you multiple updates, with photos, every day throughout your dogs stay. Please let me know if you have any questions! I'd love to schedule a meet and greet. I can't wait to meet your pup!
“Trish and her family are the best. My dog gets all of the love when she is over and comes home exhausted and has happy dreams. Trish is a great communicator and sends fun pics through the day so my work day is that much better. Moving forward, I will be making arrangements for my dog to stay with Trish and fam when I am out of town so that I can travel assured my pup will have all of the love in my absence.”
“Lori was very friendly & had great communication. My pup Jewels had a good time playing with her two sweet dogs & had plenty space for Jewels to play. She sent me photos & videos of her having a good time. Lori was very accommodating to my dog & I would highly recommend! Thanks again Lori for taking good care of my pup. 🙂”

“Alicia and Christian were great with Rocco. You could tell he had a nice time. They were amazing at accommodating a relatively last minute booking request so super grateful. They were awesome! 🤍”

“Nazgul and her family were exceptionally warm and attentive with Midnight. From the moment we arrived, I could tell she would settle in quickly and feel at home. Their updates and photos were thoughtful and reassuring, and it was clear she was genuinely cared for. I highly recommend Nazgul and her family to anyone seeking a safe, loving environment for their pet.”

“Sarah was great! She took a last minute booking, fast communicator. Our pup had a great time with her and her doggies. Took on long walks. She helped reinforce tricks and helped him with leash manners and helped us with his jumping issues. Dug was out like a light when we brought him back home! Was wonderful and would book again. And appreciate the healthcare workers discount!”

“She is amazing, send videos, pictures, and updates throughout the day and is a very kind person. This was our puppy’s first ever doggy daycare experience and im so happy I picked Acausha! I will definitely rebook with her next time I need it!”

“Mal has had a confusing time because his alpha, my husband, died unexpectedly last week, and he's had to move house on top of it. He is a rescue and already had separation anxiety. But he had a great time with Sandra, playing with other dogs, with plenty of room to run around, and was he was happy and not insecure when I picked him up both days. Thank you Sandra! Thank you for loving animals!”

“Chong was fantastic! Super responsive and acccomodating for my day-of dog watch inquiry for Ari after another sitter cancelled. She sent photos and updates throughout my 5 hour watch. Would definitely do it again with her!”

“Kathryn & Matt Took great care of Charlie. Charlie was always excited when we pulled up to their house. They have a nice setup for your pet to play in the backyard or go on walks in a nice neighborhood.”

“Michele was great! Our dogs loved her & we felt comfortable leaving both our pups in her hands for the day. She followed directions and provided an update. Both pups went home tired with smiles.”

About: I have had pets for most of my life. My family and I currently have one very playful dog, two cats and a bearded dragon. I, along with my family, have cared for family, friends and neighbors pets for several years now. I work from home, usually only leaving during the day for a few minutes in the afternoon for school pickups (most days I take my dog with me) or the occasional quick errand. I take breaks throughout the day for indoor and outdoor pet play time and daily walks. While I am usually home, if I need to be away for a time there is almost always at least one family member home. When working, my office door is always open. I have a fenced yard for outdoor play time and potty breaks and plenty of sidewalks, trails and parks near my home for daily walks and places to explore.
“Natalie is amazing! My dog, Lulu, absolutely adores her and loves going to her house for daycare. I pay close attention to Lulu’s reactions to environments, and she communicates in her own way when she’s comfortable or not. In the past, I had to stop taking Lulu to a specific daycare because she would shake with fear/anxiety at drop-off, whine, and try to drag me back toward the entrance to leave. When I pull up to Natalie’s home at drop-off, Lulu whines to get out of the car and practically drags me to door to get daycare started. She greets Natalie so enthusiastically and with so much excitement. That’s the only review I really need. Lulu visits for daycare twice a week now. I appreciate that Natalie gives me regular updates throughout the daycare stay and includes several pictures. After each daycare visit, Natalie provides a handwritten note summarizing Lulu’s day. Lastly, she’s simply a very warm and nice person. I’m glad we found her!”

“Sara was great; Everything was handled professionally and with care - a plus that she had her own dog to play with mine, which was important to me when booking; She even left mine with a toy to go - needless to say, my pup left happy with Sara’s care.”

“Unfortunately, we found Kayla a few days before we moved to Texas. I wish we had known about her years before! We have one large dog who just went through surgery and two small puppies that are extremely high energy. She and her family were so great with all of them. She provided pictures while we were gone and gave great updates that really made us feel like our dogs were having a great time. Cannot recommend Kayla enough to anyone who needs a dog sitter!”

About: I have been taking care of animals for almost 9 years. I have grown up knowing the responsibility of what animals need and how to take care of them. I also truly have a love for animals. I love playing with them. I love being near them, and because I’m so young, I have almost if not more energy to put into the animals. my pets have required special needs and care and knowing that care and experiencing it first hand, I know how to put that learning experiences other situations Currently i’m a high school student so my hours vary. So Monday- Friday i can only walk or care for animals from the times of 5-7am and 3-11pm. The weekends i’m always available and ready to be at your assistance. I love animals so much and always jumping at the opportunity to see one. I have 4 pets of my own and have been carrying the responsibility of keeping them safe for almost ten years. I’ve learned how to keep them safe from other animals and from escaping from home, With this experience in mind i can take what i know and use it with your animals. I know how to crate animals if needed and protected from any outside forces.
About: I've taken care of pets ever since I was 10. My neighbors, friends, and family members have relied on me for taking care of their fur babies while they were gone on trips or vacations. I have also owned a four legged baby ever since I have been on this planet. I will love your baby(s) as much as my own. I will check on your babies first thing in the morning while they are in my care. My husband is also a zookeeper at the Safari Park so I have extra skills and knowledge about animals. Whatever your needs are I will work it into my schedule. It’s a plus if they are friendly with my own fur babies. I can take your pets on long walks and crate them if I need to. If they don't like the crate, I can block them off in the kitchen or whereever you would like. If they are okay with my own fur babies, they will be out and about and I will keep a close on them. Whatever works best for you and your fur baby is what I will do.

I recently just relocated from Hawaii so my schedule is very open while I look for full time employment. I’m here for whatever your pet needs. I will follow your pet care instructions that best suits your fur baby. Each pet is different in their needs and wants so I will customize for each.

“Erica and Ronald were amazing with our dogs. It was obvious our dogs enjoyed their stay and had fun with them. We got lots of pictures and updates from them. We definitely recommend them and would leave our dogs there again, thanks so much!”
“Michele was amazing with our dog and kept us updated the whole trip! She went above and beyond when our flight was delayed and allowed us to pick our dog up super late at night. Michele will be our go to for a sitter when we need one!”

“Matt and Kathryn are absolutely wonderful with our dogs. Never, in all our years of being pet owners, have we taken a vacation without our animals. But we just got back from a week abroad without any concerns for our pups because we knew they were in the very best care. Our dogs miss Matt and Kathryn and their dogs when they go too long between visits. It's so cute to see them get excited when we arrive. Can't recommend them enough.”

“Sarah is amazing! Exceptional communication throughout the whole stay. Sarah also provided detailed information on how my pup was doing the whole time alongside with a ton of pictures. My pup was having the time of her life! She’s also very knowledgeable and patient with my dog. Would definitely rebook again!”

“Marta was great! She was super responsive, communicated very well and I could tell my dog was in the best hands. She sent me a ton of photos and videos every day! I will definitely use her again in the future!”


“Angie was located in a great neighborhood. we felt really comfortable leaving our dogs with Angie. she had a very spacious backyard to include a dog of her own. she was very caring and accommodating while we left our dogs with her for six days and five nights she would send pictures daily as updates. our dogs had no issues when we picked them up. we will definitely hire Angie again. we highly recommend Angie to anyone in the Escondido area.”

“Amanda and her family are the best! This was my dogs' second stay with her and they were completely at ease with this familiar, safe environment. Amanda sent photos every day of their stay and their faces said it all- carefree, calm, and happy! Thank you, Amanda & Co. for accommodating us again!”

“Tatyanah and Everardo watched our dog Nova for five nights and took such wonderful care of her. They are so friendly and you can tell right away they love dogs. It was such a relief to know she was being loved and well cared for while we were on vacation. They have a spacious yard, and Nova especially enjoyed playing with their two dogs—she bonded quickly with Jojo! They took her on plenty of walks and kept us updated with lots of videos and pictures, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love for them to watch her again next time we need a dog sitter!”

“Erica was amazing with my pups! We received pics and updates throughout their stay. My pups were well taken care of and comfy with Erica and her family. Thank you for taking care of my dogs on short notice too ❤️❤️❤️”

“Heather did such a great job caring for our 2 fur babies while we were on vacation. When she came over to meet them she brought her hisband which I really appreciated b/c he was going to be present during their stay and I thought that was the best thing to do for the situation. They both reacted well during their visit and I knew right away she was perfect for the job. Heather has an obvious love for animals and made us feel very comfortable with leaving our babies w/ her for a week. She was very proactive with her communications and sent lots of pictures during our time away and very responsive to our communications. She took great care of our fur babies and they were in great condition upon pickup. I can't say enough about how pleased we were with our experience with Heather and will definitely use her every time we have to leave them behind. Five stars for sure!”

“Sean & family (including their dog Zorian) were just wonderful dog sitters! This was a repeat booking with him and I certainly plan to use him again in the future. They welcomed my dog into their family and took great care of him!”

“Sandra has been the best dog boarder we’ve had in Fallbrook and we’ve tried several. Our dog was so well taken care of and her property is perfect for our guy to roam around. We will seek out Sandra for all future boarding needs.”

“Caleb is almost too accommodating. I’ve changed bookings on him last minute or needed a late night pick up and he’s consistently been able to meet my needs. My dog is always excited to spend time with Caleb and the other dogs. He keeps me updated with videos and photos.”

“Our dog stayed with Kayla and her family while we were on vacation and she took such great care of her! Our dog got lots of attention and cuddles, which she loved, and we got lots of updates and pictures, which we appreciated. Highly recommend Kayla for your pet sitting needs!”

“Tricia and her family treated Iko like part of the family. She sent me plenty of updates and pictures, Iko looked very comfortable and at home there. Having a senior dog, it’s very hard for me to leave him, but I felt at ease leaving him Tricia. Already planning on booking his next stay with her!”
“Dana was super great with my Pit Brewsky! He made himself right at home! She definitely has the magic touch when it came to trimming his nails; he is VERY sensitive to anyone touching his paws/nails and she was able to work with him successfully! She gave great feedback and advice based on his personality and needs as well. Dana will be our go to sitter from now on!! 🤍”

“Kim was so great! She really went above and beyond to make my dog feel comfortable. I have an older senior rescue dog and Kim was very attentive to her needs and her meds. I knew my dog was in good hands with her!”
