“It is our first time boarding our dog, so we were a bit nervous, but Soonok was amazing! Our dog likes to walk outside, and Soonok brought him out for walks and even updated us with photos and videos. We appreciate Soonok being communicative and for taking great care of our dog. 5 stars for sure!”
“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!”
“Ximena and her family were so incredibly welcoming and sweet. After our meet and greet I knew my dog was in great hands! She has a great routine with the animals assuring they are walked, fed, and have plenty of doggy play and love. She was easy to get in touch with and sent us many updates, videos, and photos. I will definitely book with her again if or when the time comes to board our sweet boy.”
“Our corgi had so much fun on vacation! We got regular pictures and updates throughout our trip. She had lots of fun on her walks and playing with her new friend. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our dog!”
“We've been searching for a reliable pet sitter near Cypress, CA, and were fortunate to find someone like Sue! She was incredibly responsive and generous in many ways. Sue consistently sent us photos and videos of our dog while we were out of town, which was very reassuring. She even took our pup to the dog park, and it seems our dog was happier than ever! We highly recommend Sue if you care about your dog's well-being.”
“Arriyanna is a godsend. Arriyanna sent picture and message updates frequently while my cat boarded with her. Overall I felt relieved that I chose Arriyanna to pet sit. I also felt my cat was safe and loved while in her care. I definitely plan to rebook with her in the future.”
“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.”
“This was our first time leaving our BoBo. Amie has made his stay very comfortable and such a loving environment. Will definitely rebook in the future. She provided daily pictures and kept us updated regularly.”
“Joshua and Jennifer were absolutely amazing. I felt so comfortable leaving my two pug babies with them for the weekend knowing they were in such good hands. They had so much fun and were even spoiled with Halloween doggy treats, even came home with little goodies! Jennifer was wonderful with communicating with me the whole time as well which was huge for me. Thanks you guys! Will be taking them here again :)”
“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”
“Brittany was an amazing host! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily check-ins and pictures. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her home.”
“Thank you for doing such an amazing job taking care of Koda. She got lots of attention & exercise and can tell she was happy & comfortable. I got lots of updates throughout my trip which was great. Will definitely be booking again 😊”
“Nyessa is simply wonderful! The way she cared for my dog was beyond what I could have hoped for. She’s so gentle, kind, and attentive! it felt like leaving my fur baby with family. I’m so thankful for her kindness and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“It was such a great time with Cecilia:) Xavi stayed at her home which is a perfect place for dog very well! She walked my dog and sent me some pictures of my dog as well! That was very thoughtful. I will definitely use her service again!!! ”
“Mochi had a wonderful stay! Lenore and her boyfriend were very kind and communicative. They sent lots of photos and we felt our pup had a great time! Would definitely recommend! Thanks again guys! Mochi says hi ;)”
“Laura was just amazing and definitely eased my nerves about dog boarding our babies. She was super kind, good vibes, had a calm aura, and she vibed well with the dogs. She sent update pictures everyday and how the dogs were doing. Definitely will be booking her in the future!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about our first experience with Maritza. From the moment I contacted her, I felt confident about her taking care of our furbaby! We did a meet and greet before Hershey's stay and we could tell that this was the perfect place for him while we had to go out of town. It’s clear that Maritza loves what they do—my dog was treated like family, not just a client. Communication was outstanding the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my dog was doing, which made being away so much easier. It was obvious that Hershey was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. What really stood out was the attention to detail and genuine care. Maritza took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and made sure everything was followed perfectly. When I picked my dog up, Hershey was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—which says everything. Honestly, I think he was sad to leave! He had so much fun with the other dogs and since it was Easter weekend, Maritza even did a egg hunt with all of them! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Maritza. This was hands-down the BEST pet care experience we've ever had, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Marlo is amazing! Very communicative, flexible, and patient with my anxious dog. It was clear from the moment I dropped him off that Marlo really cared about making sure he was comfortable in a new space. Highly recommend!”
“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!”

“We were so grateful to have Jennylyn take care of our cat while we were out of town. She responded to our messages promptly and kept us updated with regular photos and reports. Our cat can be quite sassy, mischievous, and not always friendliest, but Jennylyn was very patient and handled things wonderfully. We felt at easy knowing our cat was in great hands. We'd definitely book with Jennylyn again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my life and genuinely enjoy their company. I currently volunteer at my local animal shelter a few days a week. I have completed the shelters Fear Free training that teaches how to recognize and alleviate Fear, Anxiety, and Stress (FAS) in pets. The training touches on how to read animal body language, low stress handling techniques, environmental and protocol modifications. I have experience with puppies, adults, and senior dogs. I currently work part-time. My schedule consist of working M,W,F at 11:00 AM-3:00 PM and T,Th at 11:00 AM-4:00 PM. I am not scheduled at my day job on the weekends. So on Saturday and Sunday I am available for constant care. I can house sit, do drop in’s, and walks 7 days a week. But on weekdays I will be out 4-5 hours a day due to my work schedule. I will always respect clients boundaries. I understand the importance of leaving the place in good condition and cleaning up after myself. Most importantly sending updates to the owners on how their pets are doing. I also understand the importance of the big responsibility it is to care for my clients pets. I will always treat them as my own, with compassion, care, love 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.”
“Lindsay is a reliable, intelligent and efficient pet sitter and I felt completely comfortable in having her come by to feed my two cats while I was on vacation. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: Hi, my name is Sereina! I love caring for cats and understanding their personalities to further gain their trust and know their habits. I have cared for indoor and outdoor cats and am a very adaptable care giver based on their behavior.
“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.”
“Jennifer was super easy yo coordinate with and was attentive and patient with the cranky ol fur baby and with me. She made sure everything was in order and I could tell from both the photos and the initial meeting that my cat, who isn't ever mean but can be skittish, was immediately comfortable with her. She's great!”
About: I’ve grown up around animals and have loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I worked at a dog kennel for a couple of years, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. These days, I have a one year old golden retriever with lots of energy! My favorite part of my day is taking her on our daily walks. Walking your dog will add to my joy and I will make sure each walk is not just exercise, but something your dog truly enjoys. I’m comfortable with all breeds and love how even a short walk can make a dog’s day better. Whether your pup needs a brisk outing or a slower stroll, I’ll make sure they’re happy and well taken care of! I’m currently working part-time and would love to spend my free days getting outside with some happy pups—whether they’re full of energy or prefer a slower pace. I have confidence in all dog breeds and am capable of walking all sizes and ages of dogs. I only do dog walking-no dog sitting.
About: There has not been a day in my that I’ve not shared it with one or more pet.This has allowed me to understand each fur baby has unique needs. I would be honored to offer special attention to your dog, cat, puppy, or kitten when you are unavailable. My schedule is currently flexible allowing me to pop by for potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, walks (long, short, quick paced or slow), administer medications throughout the day. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority, while following their routine and abiding by your house rules. I’ll give your pet the same loving attention I give my own.
“Christina was great to work with! She was punctual, followed all the directions, and took great care of my girls. I'd be glad to have her care for them again in the future.”
“Regina’s patient and great at assessing what my dogs need. She then gives me helpful feedback, and homework, to work on with them until I see her again. She’s very understanding and makes training manageable. Beyond grateful to be working with her.”
About: Though I’ve never owned a cat due to family allergies (thankfully, I’m not allergic!), I’ve always been fascinated by their unique personalities and enjoy their company. My experience comes from caring for family members’ cats while they’re on vacation, ensuring they feel safe, loved and well fed. As someone who has grown up with dogs, I bring a patient, attentive approach to caring for pets and enjoy learning more about cats with each interaction. My flexible schedule as a full time college student makes me an excellent choice for your feline care needs!
About: I’ve always wanted a cat of my own, sadly my household is allergic.. that does not stop me from cat sitting for aunts & cousins whenever I can! Hope to gain more opportunities to take care of kitties whenever possible.

About: Hello there! My husband, two kids, and I live in East Long Beach. Feel free to send me a message to see what we can schedule! Thank you for your time! I currently work part-time from home. My kids (ages 5 & 11) love animals too and they help me out with routine, safety, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and well cared for. We are great at following each pet's routine closely based on the owner's instructions. This includes feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, light exercise, and any medications as directed. We make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for during each visit, clean up after meals or play, and provide photos so owners know their pet is doing well.

We get to hang out all day since I’m home full time. I can give your dog the same 100% attention :) It would be nice to take care of another dog and go on walks and give my dog more play time with a friend! Russell (my dog) likes to sleep and cuddle all day. If you know dachshunds then you know how it is. Whether your dog needs playtime, a walk or is a cuddle bug, I can ensure your pet stays happy and active during their stay. I will follow your specific feeding instructions and ensure your pet has plenty of fresh water and their favorite treats (if allowed). Any preferences and routines will be followed so that your pet (and you) feel safe and comfortable in my care. Want lots of updates? You got it! Photos, videos, texts, whatever - it’s important to have peace of mind knowing your pet is in great hands :) (Check out my photos of my dog, trust me you will get the same!)

They will be followed.
“I highly recommend her!...This was my first time using Rover and I’m so happy I found Ximena. I cannot say enough of how please I was with her. I am sure Mimosa had a great time with Ximena her daughter and Fluffy their dog. Since our meet & greet visit, I could tell that I had the right person to leave Mimosa with, this gave me a big sense of relief knowing that Mimosa and Fluffy got along. Ximena sent me updates with videos and kept me in the loop the whole time! We will definitely be requesting her services again for the next time !!!! Thank you so much!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. Growing up, my family always had anywhere from three to five dogs at a time, which taught me from a young age how to love, care for, and be responsible for animals. Those experiences helped shape my deep appreciation for the companionship, trust, and joy that pets bring into our lives. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My dog, Tommy Lee, is my world and one of the most important parts of my life. Because I know how much she means to me, I understand how much your pet means to you. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated with the same love, attention, and care that I give Tommy every day🤎 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I primarily work remotely, which allows me to be home and present with pets throughout most of the day. While I occasionally need to be on-site for work, about 90% of my schedule is remote, giving me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I also have a park right behind my home where Tommy Lee and I regularly go for walks, fresh air, and exercise, giving visiting pets plenty of opportunities for activity and enrichment during their stay. Because I spend so much time at home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of opportunities for interaction, exercise, and care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets are treated like family, not just guests. As a dog mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My dog, Tommy Lee, is incredibly friendly, social, and loves both people and other animals. Because she shares our home, I do require that pets staying with us are friendly, well-socialized, and do not have a history of aggressive behavior toward people or other animals. This helps ensure a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for everyone. I work hard to create an environment where pets can relax, feel secure, and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Communication is also very important to me, so I’ll be happy to send regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease from the moment they arrive until the moment they head home❣️
“Brittany was delightful to work with….prior to finalizing the booking we did a meet and greet and that allowed us to quickly see how natural she was with our pup, Reggie. Reggie immediately responded in a very positive manner to Brittany. Brittany’s own dog was mellow and good with Reggie. The day we dropped Reggie off, as soon as I got her out of the car she headed right for Brittany’s front door! Brittany is enthusiastic and caring, and put us at ease that we made the right decision choosing her, we will be rebooking with her soon! One last thing Brittany is great at communicating and sent multiple pictures to us of Reggie. Thanks Brittany see you again soon.”
About: Dogs and cats have been a part of my life ever since I was a little kid. I grew up with Golden Retrievers, several cats, and my family always fostered dogs in need. I am very passionate about animals and will do all I can to provide for them and respect their needs. I currently work a full time job during the weekdays, but my evenings and weekends are free. This still allows me to check on your animals, go on long walks, and provide any additional play or cuddle time. I live in a house with a spacious backyard that my own pup loves to relax in. I also live by several parks that are great walks for some exercise.
“Kristen and Severin were amazing! They were able to accommodate a very last minute booking. They were very communicative and our pups absolutely loved them. We will definitely book with Kristen and Severin again!”
“Zoë had such a great time with Sabrina. The communication and pictures during the day helped me to know that my puppy was well-cared for. I would definitely use Sabrina for doggie daycare again!”
About: I’ve cared for pets through the app before and truly enjoy spending time with animals of all kind. I’m a animal lover with experience caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between. Whether your pet loves long walks, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I offer dependable care, regular updates, and a home-away-from-home experience tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend 💕 Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly schedule because Rover is my full time focus. I’m available every day, which means I can be flexible with drop-ins, walks, and overnight stays. Since this is my only job, your pet will have my full attention and care no rushing, no distractions, just dedicated time to make sure they’re happy, safe, and comfortable In my home I create a safe, clean, and cozy space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I stick closely to their usual routines feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special care instructions to help them feel at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I make sure your pet is comfortable and stress free, and keep you updated regularly with photos and messages. (:
“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!”
“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!”
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.
“Danielle was very attentive and welcoming to Melodie. She gave updates as needed throughout the day Melodie was very energetic when we picked her up. She seemed to really enjoy her stay! We will book with Danielle again ?”
“Kristen was so incredibly kind and loving towards my pup! We were always kept in the loop and received pictures which we really appreciate! Thank you so much for providing such a safe and welcoming environment!😊”
“Elise creates a fun time for our Charlie girl every time she doggy sits her. She comes back happy and tired from all the fun with Elise and the other pups. We are so happy we found Elise, it makes it easier when we need leave her for the day, knowing Charlie is having a great time and is well cared for.”
“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!”

“Amie walks my reactive dog Sunny weekly and working with her has been a wonderful experience from the beginning. She’s a very responsive communicator, she’s very good with dogs and has helped me with extra walks as my schedule requires. I greatly appreciate her communication with me about my dogs behavior - I highly recommend Amie!”
About: I grew up with two dogs in my household and many more among the family. I dog sit my sisters dog frequently. I love animals and want to take the best care of them. I am waiting for the fall to begin classes so until then I do not have much filling my schedule. I babysit most mornings during the week but am available the rest of the day to include most weekends. Right now I live with my parents so I do not have a place to board pets, but you can trust me to house sit with your pet anytime. I will make sure to follow the rules and schedules your pet requires.
“This is the second time we booked Lindsay to walk Chester and she did great! She was kind and professional and sent us a report card with pictures to let us know how the walk went. I highly recommend her!”
About: Hello, I am a mature adult (graduate of Cal State Fullerton) and a responsible small business owner trying to supplement my income, it’s been rough these past couple years for small businesses. I will be willing to provide my business address and contact information to make you feel more comfortable, know I am trustworthy, and know where you can find me if any issues arise. As a past pet owner, I know having as much information on a stranger staying in your home would have made me feel more secure about hiring a pet sitter/pet walker.

I love all animals and love dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I can also perform baths, light grooming, walking, food prep, and administer medication.

I will treat your home with the upmost respect, follow all directions, and leave your home clean and neat.
“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!”
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.
About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of pets. Hamsters, rats, turtles, fishes, birds, and dogs.

About: Hi, my name is Sereina! I've grown up around dogs and have always been someone reliable and trustworthy around others pets as well. I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats of all different sizes, ages, and breeds. I would love to keep growing my experience and getting to know families and their pet family members as well! Currently I am working a part time job and visit my family in San Diego frequently. I am in school during the fall as a full time student but have extra time right now in the summer. Caring for your pet is another way for me to fill up the time throughout the week and meet new pets! As your pet sitter, I can be very by the book. If you have any special requests or know how to counteract any known behaviors from your pet I am capable of following your standards and following what is most comfortable and right for your pet. I will treat your pet with the same love and respect you have for them (and then some!). I am patient and will do everything I can to hold yours and your pets trust.
About: There has not been a day in my that I’ve not shared it with one or more pet.This has allowed me to understand each fur baby has unique needs. I would be honored to offer special attention to your dog, cat, puppy, or kitten when you are unavailable. My schedule is currently flexible allowing me to pop by for potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, walks (long, short, quick paced or slow), administer medications throughout the day. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority, while following their routine and abiding by your house rules. I’ll give your pet the same loving attention I give my own.
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 grew up surrounded by dogs, so loving animals is just second nature to me. I've cared for everything from a tiny, feisty Shih Tzu named Teddy to a massive 120 pound Lab named Miley. While my childhood pets have passed, I keep that passion alive by volunteering at local shelters and pet sitting every chance I get. Because I'm a college student with a flexible schedule, I'm home a lot and can easily work around your pet's routine. Our home features a huge backyard and we live right next to a park which is perfect for walks and outdoor time. I really pride myself on offering a cozy, family style boarding experience so your dog feels completely safe, comfortable and loved while you're away. As a full time local college student, I usually have just 2 classes a day at CSULB, leaving me plenty of time for pet care. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs whether that means early mornings or late nights. Boarding (At my house): I offer a cozy, family style boarding environment where your dog becomes a part of the household. Someone is always home at our house, so your pet will never feel lonely. They are allowed full access to lay on the couch or lounge on my bed and we have tons of windows that are perfect for people watching. Between our huge backyard and the park right next door, there’s endless space for fun and relaxation. Drop-In Visits (At Your Home): When I visit your home, I make sure your pet's routine doesn't miss a beat. I carefully follow all your guidelines for feeding, exercise and any health or medication needs. I always keep things clean, secure and stress free for your pets so they feel safe in their familiar surroundings. 🔆You can also count on me for regular updates and cute photos while you're away! 🔆

About: Since loosing my sweet boxer last year to cancer, I am seeking more opportunities to spend time with and love on animals as if they were my own. For those needing a hand with a busy schedule, I would be grateful to help out with their fur buddies. As a lifelong animal lover I have experience with overnight stays and simple walks for family/friends pets as well, now hoping to expand horizons. I’ve taken care of the whole range from puppy potty training - animal aggressive dogs. I am currently a student at CSULB, during summer I have a very flexible schedule and also up until recently unemployed. My availability during the day is usually open and always open to move around. I am very comfortable with animals inside and outside the house. My pets have always slept inside on bed, although always end up on the couch. I do have a decent sized gated backyard with grassy areas. There is room for play as well as training essentials, crates, playpens etc.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I’m truly passionate about. Growing up, my family always had anywhere from three to five dogs at a time, which taught me from a young age how to love, care for, and be responsible for animals. Those experiences helped shape my deep appreciation for the companionship, trust, and joy that pets bring into our lives. As a dog mom myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. My dog, Tommy Lee, is my world and one of the most important parts of my life. Because I know how much she means to me, I understand how much your pet means to you. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where your pet feels comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. When your pet is with me, they’ll be treated with the same love, attention, and care that I give Tommy every day🤎 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I primarily work remotely, which allows me to be home and present with pets throughout most of the day. While I occasionally need to be on-site for work, about 90% of my schedule is remote, giving me plenty of flexibility to provide attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of love. I also have a park right behind my home where Tommy Lee and I regularly go for walks, fresh air, and exercise, giving visiting pets plenty of opportunities for activity and enrichment during their stay. Because I spend so much time at home, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of opportunities for interaction, exercise, and care. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving home environment where pets are treated like family, not just guests. As a dog mom, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. My dog, Tommy Lee, is incredibly friendly, social, and loves both people and other animals. Because she shares our home, I do require that pets staying with us are friendly, well-socialized, and do not have a history of aggressive behavior toward people or other animals. This helps ensure a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for everyone. I work hard to create an environment where pets can relax, feel secure, and receive plenty of attention, affection, and care. Communication is also very important to me, so I’ll be happy to send regular photo and video updates throughout your pet’s stay. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely at ease from the moment they arrive until the moment they head home❣️
“This was our first experience getting a dog walker and Lyza has set the bar very high. She went above and beyond the requested walk. We are so grateful for the time she spent with our Margo. We highly recommend using her, we will for sure!”
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.

“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!”
“This was our first time leaving our BoBo. Amie has made his stay very comfortable and such a loving environment. Will definitely rebook in the future. She provided daily pictures and kept us updated regularly.”
“Mochi had a wonderful stay! Lenore and her boyfriend were very kind and communicative. They sent lots of photos and we felt our pup had a great time! Would definitely recommend! Thanks again guys! Mochi says hi ;)”
“Laura was just amazing and definitely eased my nerves about dog boarding our babies. She was super kind, good vibes, had a calm aura, and she vibed well with the dogs. She sent update pictures everyday and how the dogs were doing. Definitely will be booking her in the future!”
“I can’t say enough amazing things about our first experience with Maritza. From the moment I contacted her, I felt confident about her taking care of our furbaby! We did a meet and greet before Hershey's stay and we could tell that this was the perfect place for him while we had to go out of town. It’s clear that Maritza loves what they do—my dog was treated like family, not just a client. Communication was outstanding the entire time. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my dog was doing, which made being away so much easier. It was obvious that Hershey was happy, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. What really stood out was the attention to detail and genuine care. Maritza took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and needs, and made sure everything was followed perfectly. When I picked my dog up, Hershey was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for—which says everything. Honestly, I think he was sad to leave! He had so much fun with the other dogs and since it was Easter weekend, Maritza even did a egg hunt with all of them! If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and truly passionate about animals, I wholeheartedly recommend Maritza. This was hands-down the BEST pet care experience we've ever had, and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!”
“Marlo is amazing! Very communicative, flexible, and patient with my anxious dog. It was clear from the moment I dropped him off that Marlo really cared about making sure he was comfortable in a new space. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Lianna and her husband were awesome. I was very worried about one of my dogs and he did great. Lianna kept me at ease replying to my messages. Definitely would recommend her and I’m using her again soon. Thank you so much!”
“Christa was awesome! She was flexible and really helped me out with a last-minute booking. I appreciated her reliability and would definitely book with her again.”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!”
“Kaithlyn is amazing! This was my first time using Rover and she was wonderful in answering all my questions! She provided so many updates of my dog Boogie while he was staying with her which was very reassuring! Kaithlyn was very responsive, sweet, and Boogie really likes her - would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
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.
“Penny always has the BEST time staying at Monique’s! She loves playing with her kids especially. Monique always sends a ton of photos, I would highly recommend her for a safe and fun stay for your pup :)”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! Jamie was incredibly kind, responsible, and attentive. It was clear from the start that she & her family truly love animals and treated our pup like part of their family. Communication was great throughout, and we got sweet updates that gave my husband & I peace of mind. I highly recommend Jamie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you Jamie!”
“Maria was so great! Really thoughtful and I can tell Lupo had a great time with her. She sent a lot of pictures keeping me updated and made me feel really comfortable leaving Lupo behind. Will definitely be using her services again!”
“Ness took loving care of my baby while I was out of town. I really like her home setup with a backyard play area with grass and very tall fences. She's also fine with the dogs on the bed which is what my dog prefers. The neighborhood is also quiet, and, bonus, she's on the way to the airport.”
