“Katherine and John took such good care of Nala. They shared pictures while I was away and Nala looked very happy! I will definitely use them again. It’s such a relief to find people you can trust leaving your pet with.”
“Tbh she makes me feel like I’m with my dog just without the responsibilities. She takes great care of him as if he is her own. Can’t express how grateful we are to have found her. Both the puppy and us have a great experience every single time!!!! Totally recommend her hands down.”
“I cannot recommend Elaine highly enough! She took the most exceptional care of our pup! Coco has been in Elaine’s care several times now and she is truly treated like family. Elaine is thoughtful, professional, and clearly an expert when it comes to animals. What stood out most is how genuinely caring and loving she is — you can tell she truly loves pets. Knowing Coco was in her hands gave me complete peace of mind. I’m so grateful to have found someone so dependable and compassionate.”
“I cannot recommend Laura enough. She was fantastic with our girls during their 8 day stay with her. She cared for our 2 golden retrievers (Mia and Riley), Chocolate Lab (Hershey), and our Russian Blue cat (Olivia- who has special needs as she is a tripod kitty) so well and gave us the peace of mind knowing they were in a safe and loving environment. Laura communicates very well and at the right frequency to give updates on your babies and sends pictures to help when you are missing their sweet faces. I know her house must have been hair-covered by the time we picked them up (mine always seems to be despite roomba constantly running) but she was gracious and no complaints. We will definitely book Laura in the future.”
“Marlo took amazing care of our 5-year-old pup, Sky! We came home to a happy, well-loved dog, and it was clear she was in great hands. She also sends the best updates, which made us feel so at ease. Reliable, kind, and fantastic with pets—highly recommend!”
“Great sitter for my dogs. This is my second time using him. I moved to San Diego and found Ronald when I was leaving .Los Angeles. Glad I kept his profile. I have 4 dogs and Ronald kept them all at the last minute for the Easter weekend .”
“This was Lolly’s 2nd time staying with Karina, but her first extended stay and she had an amazing time! Karina always keeps you updated with several photos each day and let’s you know about any concerns she might have or funny stories about your dog’s day. I will continue to book with Karina for any dog sitting needs I might have. So very thankful to have found a sitter so friendly, detail oriented, and as caring as she is.”
“Ivette was vey welcoming and kind to my little Charly. She had no issues tending to Charly meal routine aswell as his exercise needs. Charly was very happy when picking him up, which is always a very good sign that he had a good stay. Thank you and would 10/10 recommend to everyone”
“Edwin and Jenn are amazing! They were so patient with our dog, Bailey, and incredibly easy to communicate with. They were open to doing a meet-and-greet beforehand, which helped us feel confident that Bailey would be in great hands. This was our first time leaving Bailey with anyone outside of family for more than a couple of days, and we genuinely never had to worry while we were traveling. They kept us at ease and updated the entire time. They were also very accommodating and flexible with both pick-up and drop-off. On top of that, their pups are so sweet and super friendly. We highly recommend them!”
“Maria was absolutely incredible with our dog. We couldn’t be happier! She sends plenty of photos throughout each day and you can tell she genuinely cares for the dogs and treats them with love and care. Will definitely be coming back!”
“Annette was amazing. Right off the bat you can tell she loves and cares for animals. Her home is safe, secure and very cozy. She checked in throughout the day and sent the cutest photos. She administered eye drops to one of my girls and even let me know when she noticed one had more eye discharge than normal. 5 stars and I will be rebooking for any upcoming trips!”
“Sherry and Andres are the sweetest couple we’ve ever met! She took care of my pup while we were on vacation and did such a stellar job! I received photo and video updates every day, and when we picked him up, he didn’t even want to leave because he had so much fun hanging out with them and the other doggies. 🥹 I have complete trust in their care and will definitely be coming back! Highly recommend them! ❤️”
“Nick and Cora were great with our chow chow. They took him for many walks and kept him company. They were great for me too, sending many pictures and texts to let me know how he was doing. Six stars!”
“Zai and Max were wonderful with Lucy! They took great care of her over the weekend, followed all of my instructions, and kept me updated with great communication and lots of pictures. Lucy is an older dog, and she got along really well with their two older dogs. I felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such a caring and attentive home. I would definitely recommend Zai and Max and would happily have them watch Lucy again!”
“Amber and her family were a delight! Extremely responsive, kind, professional, friendly, and truly caring animal lovers. Amber sent us lots of sweet photo updates, kept our dog in amazing spirits, and upon pickup he was perky, peppy, and smiling. We loved that their family was around to play with him, as he loves interaction and playtime with humans and kids. The house was clean and spacious for numerous dogs. The backyard was so perfect for all types of dogs; it was large, clean, and very safe to be on or off leash to lounge, snooze, and sunbathe. It was fully gated and secure. We will definitely re-book with Amber and hope that she is available!!! Thank you so much Amber and family!!! :-)”
“Brandon took amazing care our 3 year-old Boxer mix, Deebo. He kept us constantly updated with many pictures. I will definitely rebook with Brandon in the near future. Thank you for taking care of Deebo!”

“Jennifer really helped to ease my worries during my holiday trip. I’ve never left my cats with a sitter before this so I was a little anxious but Jennifer was awesome! She took great & thorough care of my cats during each visit and took such cute photos of my kittens. She was also very communicative and asked questions, which I appreciate greatly. Thank you for loving and caring for my cats, Jennifer! I really appreciate your time and effort, especially during the holiday season.”
“Alycia was a great cat sitter and very easy to correspond with. She sent pictures and helped with a last minute plant watering request as well. I was very comfortable having her come to my apartment and would recommend to anyone!”
“From the beginning, Danielle was communicative and intuitive! Our babies, Coco and Kwame, can be a bit shy, especially Kwame, but he warmed up to Danielle so fast in the first meeting, which brought us a lot of relief and comfort. We loved and appreciated the check-ins she would send of our babies, and to see them open up to her really let us know that they were being genuinely taken care of and engaged with. She was so flexible about adding an extra check-in we needed to add at the last minute. She was so attentive with the details of emergency contacts, key drop-offs, and vet information. We really appreciated this, since we had so many things in mind for our trip. She also followed instructions, especially during feeding time, because Kwame is a thief, and Coco will let him. We are definitely going to book with her again since our babies are comfortable with her, and it was so easy to communicate with her. See you soon, Danielle, thank you! :)”
“This was our first visit with Shelli M. and found her to be reliable, thorough and very friendly. She cared for our two senior cats with pets and rubbies. She texted us everyday with photos and videos of our fur babies. Everything was lovely when we got back from our trip.”
“We love Gabby! This is the second time we’ve had the pleasure to know that Gabby was taking care of our two cats while out of town. Gabby is so sweet and caring and 100% reliable. My husband and I trust her completely and feel our babies our being loved whilst away. We’ll absolutely use her services again!!!!”
“Diana was wonderful with our two cats during our 6 days trip. She was reliable, caring, and made sure they were happy, well fed, and comfortable while we were away. She kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind.”
“Highly recommend Elise! She maintained great communication, which provided peace of mind. She paid great attention to detail, ensuring our cat was well cared for, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.”
“Jackson is super warm, polite, professional and responsible! He takes great care of Tsuki, feeding her, cleaning her litter box and playing with her. You can tell this dude is a real pet lover from the first moment you see him. Also don’t forget his photography talent!”
“I hired Nicolas for last-minute cat sitting around Xmas and he did a great job. Followed directions, kept the litter box tidy, and I returned home to a happy cat. I would definitely consider rebooking him.”
“Thank you Sam for taking such great care of our pets!! Thank you for sweeping and keeping our house clean! We appreciate your efforts to reach out to the cats, We would highly recommend using Sam, especially if you have a large brood to care for like we did.”
“This is the second time I’ve had Gina do drop in visits for my cat. She loves Gina. Gina also takes such good care. She always takes a lot of photos and videos. Would definitely recommend!”
“Jasmine was really great and kept us constantly updated with lots of pictures. Both of our fur babies got lots of attention and one on one care. She also cleaned up after herself and the animals. When our flight was delayed, she also came back and gave them dinner which we really appreciated!”
“Maiko was super friendly and accommodating. My kitties caused an issue at home and she was very prompt on informing me and help me with the situation. I definitely recommend her and will be requesting for her service again!”
“Sydney was amazing!! This was my first time getting a cat sitter for my needy kitty, and I found my new go to girl. She went above and beyond with playing with her, hanging with her, keeping the litter box spotless, and listened to my precise feeding instructions. I could tell by the Blink camera that Juni was digging her, and they are on their way to becoming besties. What a relief to find a good sitter. Thank you Sydney! Meow Sydney!”
“Gio is great! So caring and reliable with my dog Rosie:-) I trust him to always show up and be there for both of us. I feel reassured when I go out of town that I can count him to be there for her:-) Thanks Gio!!”
About: Salutations! My name is Ali, and I’m usually the person at parties seeking out the pets rather than socializing with everyone else. I’m also slightly on the spectrum, which means I’m naturally detail oriented, routine loving, and very attentive to the little things that make your pet comfortable and happy. I have experience caring for senior cats and dogs, including administering medications on specific schedules. I love routines, so give me your pet’s schedule and I’ll follow it to a T! I believe every pet deserves to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can see how your fur baby is doing and have peace of mind knowing they’re being well cared for. Communication is key, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress free as possible. I can’t wait to meet all the new pet pals out there and hopefully become their favorite sitter! 🐶🐱❤️ My schedule is flexible and I have an open schedule to care for anyone last minute or weeks/ months in advance! I ensure to be there for you when needed ☺️ I make sure to follow all instructions provided and reach out to pet owners for clarification if needed to ensure the pets safety and comfort ❤️
“needed a sitter relatively last minute. So happy to have found Brandy! so quick to communicate and get details sorted in the short time I had before I needed to leave on a trip. Her professionalism, attention to detail with her obvious care for my cat Sheba’s well-being makes her my first choice for any future needs!”

“Inta and her husband were amazing sitters. It was only 2 days but the second day Appa (puppy) was ready to jump out of the car as soon as we parked and was very happy to see them. He loved it so much he almost didn't want to leave. Will definitely book them again in the future.”

“Frankie had a blast w Ellaine and her dogs that also stayed with her this Thanksgiving. Frankie definitely was tired when she got home, which is great because Frankie has a ton of energy. I appreciate Ellaine because her and her boyfriend make sure that they only put so many dogs together at once making sure to not overload any dog w too much attention. I highly recommend her services and have been a repeat customer cause I trust my puppy w her. ”
“Sheila is absolutely wonderful! She provides such a loving and welcoming environment for my puppy, including plenty of fun with her three beautiful dogs. The care he receives is truly top-notch, and he always comes home exhausted after a full day of playing!

She has truly been a lifesaver, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the wonderful care she provides!”

About: I've always known I was an animal person! I've grown up with cats and dogs since I was 5 years old — 7 family cats and 5 family dogs throughout the years — so I'm familiar with every stage, from puppy and kitten energy all the way through senior care. Personally, I have 3 wonderful pups of my own. We're an active household: we walk every day and make sure to play and engage with them throughout the day, so I understand firsthand what it takes to keep a dog happy, healthy, and mentally stimulated. As someone with three dogs of my own, it's important to me to provide the same level of care I'd want for my own pups. I want you to feel confident that your dog will be looked after just as they would be in your own home with the same patience, attention, and love. I am present full time for your pup! Care fits right into my everyday routine rather than being squeezed in around it, so your dog gets consistent attention throughout the day. After I have a better understanding of your pup's routine we'll go on walks, play in our fenced front and back yard with lots of grass to enjoy, and I'll send you pics and updates along the way so you can see how they're doing. For rest and downtime, we have a private, dog-friendly ADU set up specifically for our furry guests to decompress after play and meals. I'm present in the ADU with them, and we also have a Furbo camera set up for extra monitoring. If your pup enjoys canine company, my Australian Shepherd will keep them company there; if your pup prefers to be the only dog, we'll give them their own separated space and time instead, tailored to what makes them most comfortable. Throughout the day, care naturally rotates between active time outside and quiet time in the ADU, so your pup gets a good balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and rest with me nearby the whole time. Your pet's safety is my top priority, both indoors and out. My front and back yards are fully fenced and gated, with an added interior gate leading to the backyard for extra security. I never let dogs outside unsupervised for extended periods, and I always do a visual check of the yard and gate latches before letting anyone out. We have cameras covering the front yard, so we never open the door to unfamiliar people, and dogs are always leashed the moment we step outside the fenced area. Indoors, I keep household chemicals, medications, and anything toxic to pets safely stored away, and I make sure trash cans and food are out of reach. I follow each pet's normal feeding, water, and bathroom schedule as closely as possible, and I'm comfortable administering medication if needed. If I'm caring for multiple pets at once, I introduce them slowly and supervise their interactions until I'm confident everyone is comfortable together.
“We had an excellent experience with Alaska’s stay! They were very flexible with our schedule and had great communication throughout the entire time. We really appreciated receiving photos of Alaska during the day, it gave us peace of mind knowing she was happy and doing well. 🐶❤️ When we picked her up, they also gave us an update on how her day went, and Alaska looked so happy! It was clear that she had been well taken care of and had a great time. We were very happy with the care she received and would definitely come back again without a doubt. We highly recommend them! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our girl! 🐾💕”

“Jessica was great! She's super flexible & accommodating! She's very responsive when messaging. It's always so hard for us doggie parents to leave our pups, so I especially liked receiving all the pictures & details about their walk. She has a lot of experience with dogs of all ages. I was confident she could handle my senior dogs. We will book with Jessica again!”
About: I grew up with a dog in the house, and have also become a cat mom! I am more than happy to provide your pet with love and care while you are away. No dog too big or too small for me! My schedule is fairly flexible and fluctuates so I am usually available when most people are at work, which hopefully is ideal for you! I love being outdoors and surrounding myself in nature. I would be more than happy to have your pet with me for a walk and picnic in the park.
“We love Shelli, and most importantly our dog has likes her. She is kind, gentle and very responsive to our needs. We will definitely have Shelli walk and housesit when needed.”
“10/10 . Brandy was AWSOME . She acknowledged our dogs needs and actively helped them enjoy their walks with her. She’s full of respect and so much l affection for the dogs . We recommend Brandy ! Thank you :)”
“A million thanks to Sam! Our big dog is not the easiest nor is getting in and out of our building, but everything went smoothly bc of Sam’s understanding and flexibility. We will continue to rely on him for more walks to come :-)”
“Ali was so great with my girl, Nova! I appreciated the care she took with her and Nova came back excited and happy. She was also able to accommodate my last minute request. I will be booking with Ali again!”
“Lovely experience with Jackson, lots of confidence in his handling dog reactive Raja and caring for all three critters during potential house sitting stays. Looking forward to future bookings!”
“Really appreciated having Giovanny being available to walk my dog Gnocchi. From the second we booked, he was communicative and clear. All note and instruction I sent, no matter how vague, he was able to make the most of. He cleaned up a little accidents that happened where he did not need to. Definitely a solid choice if anybody is in need of doggy care!”
About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I learned at a young age the responsibility and passion it takes to properly care for an animal. I understand that pets are truly a part of the family and I treat all animals with love and respect. I have cared for multiple dogs and cats that were my own and also for friends and family. Anyone that you ask can attest that I am the biggest animal lover! I am a full time entrepreneur/artist, so my schedule is very flexible! I am able to step away from my work to check on your pet as needed or pick up my laptop to care for your pet in their own space. I am available Monday-Friday with a flexible schedule and occasional Saturday and Sundays. Since I am self-employed, I am able to come to your home to care for your pet at any time of the day for as long as your pet needs! Depending on your pet's needs, I can be as attentive or as quick as you like. Working from home allows me to consistently check in on your pet and meet all of their physical and emotional needs. I love and care for all dogs I come across, so every breed is welcomed with open arms!
“Gabby was wonderful with Lovebug. She was super sweet and Lovebug connected with her right away. They clearly had the best walk because in the pics Gabby shared Lovebug had the biggest smile. She followed instructions perfectly and made sure the walk was just right. We can’t wait to book her again!”
About: I have always cared for pets and am a sincere lover of animals. Growing up, my family would foster shelter dogs so I am used to interacting with different dog personalities and breeds. Professionally, I have been a pet sitter for all kinds of pets for 5 years and 3 years on Rover. I have experience working with senior pets, pets with health conditions, and pets with special needs or behavioral challenges. I have received positive feedback that I get along well with even the most skittish or antisocial animals! I have a very calm and patient demeanor and can easily build trust with animals. Safety and wellbeing are my top priority, which is why I am certified in pet CPR and First Aid. I am also currently working on certification for pet training. I care deeply about providing high quality service and ensuring your pets are as comfortable and well cared for as possible. I know inviting a stranger into your home and trusting them to care for your precious furry ones takes a lot of trust, and I do my best to maintain that trust by providing transparent and regular communication. I will care for your pets as if they were my own fur babies! I currently work a remote job so my availability is very open and flexible. I have regular availability during the week day, evenings and weekends. I am happy to work with you to develop a schedule that you are comfortable with and that meets your pets' specific needs. I always aim to spend plenty of quality time with your pets so they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I will come to you in your home and provide the convenience of caring for your pet in the environment they are most familiar with and comfortable in. I know animals thrive with a consistent routine, so I will follow your pet care instructions thoroughly. I care about meeting your pets' specific needs, so I will adapt my service to accommodate any specific requests or concerns. I will also ensure your home is just as tidy as you left it.
About: I am an animal lover with over 10 years of experience providing exceptional care for pets. I have worked at a doggy daycare for over 2 years and am happiest when I get to spend the day with four legged friends. As a fellow pet owner I am well aware of how much your pet means to you. I understand the importance that they are not only taken care of while you’re away, but living their best life. When I am caring for your fur baby, my number one priority is that they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I am comfortable and more than capable of caring for all types and breeds of pets, and am especially great with pets that require more experienced care (senior pets, special needs, high energy, shy/nervous). I am just as obsessed with your pet as you are, you can expect lots of updates and pics while you are away, as well as a piece of mind knowing you’re pet is in great hands. I can’t wait to meet your pet!
About: I’ve been around dogs for my whole life and I have tons of experience caring for them due to this. I read dogs well and the signs they may give if upset or tired and I will respond accordingly. I’ll make sure your dog is happy and safe. I have a fairly flexible schedule! I am a huge animal lover, especially when it comes to dogs. This includes all dogs; of any breed or size. I will provide hands on and loving care of your dog. My mom raises guide dogs and due to this I have gained an even better understanding of dogs and gained many skills for caring for dogs. This will add to my ability to be a good caregiver of your dog.
“Marijo did an amazing job as always! I had to go out of town last minute and she came to the house for a drop in visit late at night and took Chee out. Don’t know what I’d do without her!”
“I am very grateful to have found Robin. I have a senior, female pit bull, who was abused before I adopted her. Lily senses Robin's kind nature. She has taken to Robin as a new "best buddy". She's happy to go on walks with Robin and looks forward to her visits. Robin is attentive and a great listener. She is also very punctual, which I appreciate greatly. She has followed all of my instructions perfectly (a rare attribute these days). I have found Robin to be very trustworthy. I give her 5 stars and would give her a 10, if possible. If you want a trustworthy, affectionate and kind hearted sitter, hire Robin.”
“I love working with Christopher! He’s diligent, responsible, dependable with his communication and so gentle and sweet w my Rosie! She’s just recovering from surgery so he took extra care with her to make sure her meds and potty schedule adhere to the doctors orders! I will keep counting on Christopher to be there for Rosie in the future!!”
“Irene went to my apartment to walk Pebbles. Pebbles was really shy and Irene eased her way to gain her trust. Irene is trustworthy and patient. I will book her again.”

She cared for our 2 golden retrievers (Mia and Riley), Chocolate Lab (Hershey), and our Russian Blue cat (Olivia- who has special needs as she is a tripod kitty) so well and gave us the peace of mind knowing they were in a safe and loving environment. Laura communicates very well and at the right frequency to give updates on your babies and sends pictures to help when you are missing their sweet faces.

We will definitely book Laura in the future.”

“Amber and her family were a delight! Extremely responsive, kind, professional, friendly, and truly caring animal lovers. Amber sent us lots of sweet photo updates, kept our dog in amazing spirits, and upon pickup he was perky, peppy, and smiling. We loved that their family was around to play with him, as he loves interaction and playtime with humans and kids. The house was clean and spacious for numerous dogs. The backyard was so perfect for all types of dogs; it was large, clean, and very safe to be on or off leash to lounge, snooze, and sunbathe. It was fully gated and secure. We will definitely re-book with Amber and hope that she is available!!! Thank you so much Amber and family!!! :-)”
“Brandon took amazing care our 3 year-old Boxer mix, Deebo. He kept us constantly updated with many pictures. I will definitely rebook with Brandon in the near future. Thank you for taking care of Deebo!”
“A fantastic sitter! He made sure to send check ups, as requested, to ease me from leaving my fur pup with him. Once I picked up my furry baby, I could tell he was so tired from a long day of fun, when he is usually overflowing with energy. So glad to have found Jon and will keep using him for all our puppy babysitting needs.”

If your pup enjoys canine company, my Australian Shepherd will keep them company there; if your pup prefers to be the only dog, we'll give them their own separated space and time instead, tailored to what makes them most comfortable. Throughout the day, care naturally rotates between active time outside and quiet time in the ADU, so your pup gets a good balance of exercise, mental stimulation, and rest with me nearby the whole time. Your pet's safety is my top priority, both indoors and out. My front and back yards are fully fenced and gated, with an added interior gate leading to the backyard for extra security. I never let dogs outside unsupervised for extended periods, and I always do a visual check of the yard and gate latches before letting anyone out. We have cameras covering the front yard, so we never open the door to unfamiliar people, and dogs are always leashed the moment we step outside the fenced area. Indoors, I keep household chemicals, medications, and anything toxic to pets safely stored away, and I make sure trash cans and food are out of reach. I follow each pet's normal feeding, water, and bathroom schedule as closely as possible, and I'm comfortable administering medication if needed. If I'm caring for multiple pets at once, I introduce them slowly and supervise their interactions until I'm confident everyone is comfortable together.
“Our nervous little dog felt right at home with Miyabi. She usually doesn't eat when she's not with us, but she seems to really like Miyabi and ate her meals thanks to Miyabi's patience and kindness.”
“My dog did so well at Sabrina and Ryan’s house. They sent me pictures and kept me updated. Very happy with the care Maggie received. Will definitely use them in the future.”
“We reached out to find someone that could handle our pibble puppy that’s high energy… we are so lucky we found Austin! We instantly felt comfortable with him and knew he was the right person. He took such good care of our Maile, and sent us updates. He also worked with us to keep her training through her puppy stage. We will definitely reach out to him again and absolutely recommend him. Thank you so so much, Austin!”
“Thank you aunty Sunny for making our first experience of having MoanaJean’s staying away from home a little easier. You invited us over for a play date and I was very impressed with the way you interacted with Moana as she was with you. Her overnight stayed went well and I appreciate you keeping me updated with photos.”
