“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!”
“Monique was a loving, caring, and responsible sitter for our 1.5 year-old Mini Poodle, Kiki. Monique sent us Kiki updates and photos every day... even more during the first days when we were most anxious. The photos and updates showed Kiki playing with Monique's kids, snuggling with them on the sofa, enjoying her treats, and going on walks. That reassurance was much appreciated! Monique's house is neat and clean, in a nice neighborhood, with a secured backyard, park space nearby, and lots of nearby places to walk to. Kiki came home in high spirits and weight-neutral. Overall, this is a great sitter and a great place for Kiki when we're away on vacation.”
“Sue was great with my senior cat! He's been having to move a lot with our military move so it was wonderful knowing he was in a comfortable and safe environment while we were busy and well loved.”
“Jeimy was amazing with our two dogs. She treated them with lots of love and care, as if they were her own. Even with our dog with special needs and hyper fur baby, she was patient and knew exactly how to handle their needs. Communication was great, she provided daily updates with photos while we were on vacation in a different time zone. She was so accommodating and made sure the dogs had everything. I would highly recommend her and book her again!”
“Absolutely amazing experience leaving our beloved Bulldogs with Sara and her family for a long weekend. She had great questions at drop-off, was in constant communication with updates and photos throughout the stay, and even provided cute little pet report cards at pick-up. HIGHLY recommend. We will definitely be requesting her services again the future.”
“Laura was fantastic. She’s very quick to respond and took my dog on a very short notice. She was great with him. He was so happy to be with her and her dogs. He came home happy and healthy. Thank you so much!!!”
“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.”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitters! They took such great care of our dogs and truly went above and beyond. They walked them regularly, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What impressed us most was how attentive they were to each of our dogs’ individual personalities and specific needs. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after and took the time to make sure every one of our dogs was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. To top it all off, they ended our booking with a fantastic report card that summarized everything our dogs did while we were away. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed just how dedicated they are. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will absolutely be booking with them again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitters!”
“We had a last minute need for a weekend sitter for our 6 month old pup, which left us in a bit of a sticky situation. We had never left her with anyone but friends and family before, so we were pretty nervous about leaving her with someone we didn’t know. As soon as we walked in the door of Karina’a home, we were immediately relieved! Waffles had so many puppy friends to play with that she had no issues leaving us behind. Karina listened intently to her needs and understood our worries/nerves. She sent us photos and videos to ease our stress and prove that Waffles was having the time of her life! When we picked her up, she was exhausted from the weekend-long play session and was ready for nothing but cuddles on the couch (my favorite). We will definitely be rebooking with Karina in the future - Waffles is demanding it!”
“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.”
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.
“Maria and her husband were very nice and took care of my dog very well! He enjoyed his stayed and Maria even sent me a picture of my dog enjoying his time. I highly recommend any overnight stay with Maria, she is trustworthy and safe.”
“Alexandra is the best of the best! She is a major dog lover and made us feel very comfortable while our baby Timber was spending time with her. We received daily pictures and updates, as well as ensured any of our special requests were met. Her home is clean and secure, which is a major plus! We will definitely be booking with her 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.”
“Megan and her family were great! Megan sent me updates throughout the weekend to let me know how things were going. When Remy got dirty from playing outside she gave her bath. Remy came home tired and happy!”
“Highly recommend as Violet and husband were very communicative and easy to work with. Their house is very conducive for an active breed dog and they have dogs of their own so your dogs will never be bored at their house. Will definitely book with Violet again when I need a sitter for Rocco.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
About: I have been a pet owner for over 10 years. I have 10 years of dog sitting experience from friends and family pets. Being a runner dog walks are my favorite! I currently work three days a week so i am available Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays and Saturdays. I am available four days out of the week. We are in a gated community and pet friendly environment. There are plenty of places for walks and zoomies are more than welcomed in our home.
“Irene is so wonderful! I had 2 weeks of travel planned and had just gotten a new puppy. I was so nervous about leaving him because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and needed to be kept inside. Irene was so accommodating and communicative. My dog absolutely loves her and was treated like he was a part of her family. Will be using Irene again in the next couple weeks!”

“Bronte took a last-minute booking to look after our cat Pacho, which we really appreciated. She had no issues handling his picky eating and daily routine. She is reliable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. We would recommend her without hesitation to other pet parents!”
“Jessica was so flexible with our schedule and was so helpful. She sent so many pictures of our kitty’s and gave us peace of mind while we were gone! Thank you Jessica😁”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and temperaments.

Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I provide patient, gentle, and attentive care to help them feel safe and secure.

“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.”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life and caring for pets now is second nature. I raised and trained my own dog from puppyhood, giving me hands on experience with everything from potty training and basic commands to daily excersise, enrichment, and routine care. As a marathon runner, I am especially well suited for active and high energy dogs. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, runs, hikes, or plenty of playtime, I am happy to help them get the excerise and attention they need. I also grew up with two family dogs and currently help care for my roommates cat, so I am comfortable with different personalties, energy levels, and care needs. Beyond dogs and cats, I've cared for guinea pigs, hamsters, and reptiles. At one point, I was responsible for 8 pets at the same time, which taught me how to stay organized, attentive, and reliable when managing multiple feeding schedules, cleaning routines, and individual needs. My goal is to treat every pet like they're my own and give you peace of mind knowing they're in loving and capable hands. I am currently on summer break from UC Davis and have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I am available for drop in visits, dog walking, and house sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate a variety of schedules and will do my best to work around your pets routine. I understand that every pet has unique needs, so I will be extremely thorough and follow all instructions carefully regarding feeding, medications, excersise, training, and household rules. Safety is always my top priority. I pay close attention during walks, keep pets secure at all times, and make sure they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and enrichment. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you are away.
About: I’ve owned and cared for several cats over the years and genuinely enjoy their unique personalities. I understand that every cat has their own comfort level and routine, so I always approach them with patience, calm energy, and respect for their space. Whether a cat loves attention and playtime or prefers a quieter presence, I’m happy to adjust to what makes them feel most comfortable. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, litter box care, and making sure cats feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. My goal is always to make sure they receive the same level of care and kindness they’re used to at home. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility very seriously.
“She was great with our cats and took the extra time to care for them. She followed all instructions for cat care and helped keep our cat’s food area clean (no easy feat since we have some messy eaters here haha). She was very attentive to detail with our pets. We were always kept up to date with how our cats were doing and felt comfortable working with her. Definitely would recommend this cat/dog sitter for your loved ones since she did a great job!! Thanks so much!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Raymond made it a great experience. He was friendly, responsive, and punctual throughout the whole process. I felt confident leaving my cat in his care and would definitely book with him again!”
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.
“Ah, thank you Mary! Sounds like he will do just fine with you!! He must like you, it hard sometimes for him to warm up and play with his feather stick! He will be awesome with you for the next visits!!! Thank you!!”
“Kat was a wonderful pet sitter!! She is a real animal lover. She made friends with Smokey right away, and he wanted to play with her every morning during her visit. Archer is shy, but he came out a couple of times, so he must have felt more comfortable than usual with a stranger. Her attention to detail was great, and she made sure our beloved kitties had everything they needed. We would definitely book her again. ?”
“This was my first time using Rover and Lindsay exceeded my expectations! She was communicative, kind, and put my mind at ease while I was away. I could tell by the pictures she sent me of Diamond that she was happy and well taken care of ? I will be using Lindsay again the next time I go out of town.”
“Kelsy is absolutely wonderful - she has such a positive energy and our cats took to her right away. She is communicative, dependable, patient, responsive, personable, and most importantly she loves animals and they love her back! I will definitely schedule her services again.”
“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.”
“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.”

“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!”
“Our girl, Phoebe, had a FANTASTIC day with Lisa and friends. Thank you, Lisa, for taking our pup for the day! She was excited to be home but ready for bed from her very fun day! Thank you for the videos as well!!”
“I recently rescued a deaf dog, Artemis, and was nervous about leaving her with a sitter after only a week together. Lisa made the whole experience easy and stress-free. After a meet-and-greet with Lisa and her dog Rigby, followed by a visit to her home, I knew Artemis would be in good hands. During her stay, Lisa provided updates, photos, and videos that gave me peace of mind. Artemis loved the large yard, which gave her plenty of space to run and play. I highly recommend Lisa and would gladly trust her with Artemis again.”
“Amy is AMAZING!! Her baby Rocky, is precious beyond belief and the sweetest little boy! They are a wonderful family with beautiful clean and puppy proof home in a safe and great neighborhood (with lots of grass!) and lots of love to give. Amy is kind and loving and awesome with updates and pictures and her care she gives. We felt very at ease knowing our little son was in great care with Amy, her husband and little Rocky. Amy is a gem and we look forward to seeing them again, Benz loves you guys! :-) 10 stars is not enough! xoxo!!”
“I think i’ve never felt so calm with my dog being with someone! Katherine was incredible with tyson, and you can tell by how happy he looked in the pictures and how happy he came home. She is the best with communication, sending pictures and overall taking care of dogs! Thank you so much again and I hope tyson can come back to you another time!!”
“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 ?”
About: I have been taking care of my family dogs since I was a kid, but as an adult I have owned 4 different dogs and fostered over 30 other dogs and puppies for local rescues. Working with multiple dog trainers each time I adopt a dog for myself I have picked up some great tips and tricks when it comes to working with dogs of all kinds! I work from my home so aside from quick drop offs for my kids to and from school and occasional sporting events, we are usually home. I have a dog who is accustomed to regular potty breaks and at least 1-2 longer walks a day. My townhouse is 2 stories, but the main living areas where we are during the day is all downstairs. My dog naps while I work and would love a cuddle buddy. We go on frequent potty breaks and walks over to the park for exercise!
“Another amazing day for Roo at daycare with Maritza! Our girl came home sooo happy and tired. Maritza sent us lots of updates with our girl playing with new friends and feeling so comfortable and right at home! We’re so grateful for the wonderful care and attention she received. Thank you!”
“Elise took excellent care of my 12 week old Miniature Pinscher, Alphonse. She sent photos and videos of his day with her and he was having a great time! I will use Elise again to puppy sit my puppy!”
About: Lifelong owner and dog lover with 23 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. From playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra care, I provide a safe, loving environment and treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to give both pets and their owners peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾 Dogs fit naturally into my daily routine. I work from home four days a week, which allows me to provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. On the one day I do go into the office, my workplace is dog-friendly if they need or want to tag along! Additionally, my mom works from home five days a week, so there is almost always someone home to supervise and care for the dogs. This helps ensure your pup receives plenty of attention and is rarely left alone. I understand the importance of maintaining a dog’s normal routine and am happy to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and any special requests to help them feel comfortable and at home. Whether your dog is active and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I can accommodate their individual needs and make sure they receive the care and attention they deserve. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised playtime, potty breaks, and outdoor relaxation, as well as a quiet, walkable neighborhood that’s perfect for daily walks. My home features a large doggy door, allowing dogs the freedom to move between indoors and outdoors without feeling confined. While they have easy access to the yard, I prefer to monitor outdoor time whenever possible to ensure safe interactions, and discourage any mischievous ideas that curious pups may come up with. I take pride in learning each dog’s personality, routines, and preferences so they can feel as comfortable as possible during their stay. Whether your dog enjoys playing outside, exploring on walks, or just relaxing indoors, I strive to create a calm, loving environment where they can feel right at home. My goal is to provide a safe and enjoyable experience for every pet while giving owners peace of mind that their furry family member is in good hands.
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.
“Last-minute booking due to the Garden Grove/Stanton evacuation, and I was so grateful to find Sara on Rover. She is amazing, caring, and super knowledgeable about dog behavior. My Snow is a shy girl, but with Sara she felt comfortable going on walks and car rides. Sara gave hourly updates and sent lots of pictures throughout the day. She is absolutely a gem, and I would definitely recommend her for dog daycare!”
“Cheryline was incredibly friendly, flexible, and made the whole process so easy. She took great care of Charlie, and I had peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter.”
“It was our first time leaving our Frenchie and Sue made it easy to do so! She sent me updates throughout the day to let us know how he was doing and what he was up to! Would def recommend Sue! 😊”
“chris was super accommodating, taking juni at the last minute, and just so sweet to my boy. he shared pics of their adventures together and he really made an effort to make the day special for juni with long walks, dog park visit, and dog beach! i went to universal studios today, but i think juni had more fun than me! haha. i will definitely be booking with chris again!”

“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!”
“Kristen is a great dog walker. She takes good care of the dogs is very interactive has great communication is and is very safety oriented and her availability is very open. I would recommend her.”
About: Through the years, I’ve taken every opportunity possible to care for the pets of family and friends. I’ve cat-sat, dog-sat, walked dogs, even walked cats in a stroller! My childhood dog was a lab mix named Oreo. She was the most wonderful dog, and I feel incredibly lucky that I got to spend the first 16 years of my life with her. She was a senior dog who required frequent assistance for the last four years of her life. I changed her dog diapers, gave her medication, applied skin ointment daily, etc. Whether it’s puppies or seniors, I’m happy to give them more attention and assistance. I have a dog named Fiona, who is a German Shepherd/Husky mix. I also have a cat named Fish. They are both incredibly high energy, so I definitely understand the importance of walks and play to get all those zoomies out! I have learned through my pets and others that they are all unique in their own ways. No two are the same, each has their own needs and personality. I love learning all their quirks, and I can’t wait to learn about your furry friends too! I’m currently a college student, but I am taking flexible, online courses. This means more time for me and your four-legged family members to play, walk, and have fun! As long as I’m left detailed and thorough instructions, I can care for a majority of dogs or cats 24/7. The only thing I cannot do is administer injectable medication. Every pet has different needs, so please be descriptive of what exactly your furry friends need for me to keep them happy and healthy :)
“Hannah was great with my baby! She was really punctual, trusting, really easy to get ahold of, and so so sweet to my baby. I would definitely recommend her and would book with her again! Thank you Hannah!”
“Shelli is so knowledgeable about dogs and is a great person to have check in on your pets! I will absolutely be booking her again when I need someone to watch my dog.”
“Lindsay is great! Our rescue, Sammy, can be quite a handful but Lindsay jumped right in. She gave us frequent updates and photos. Sammy seemed to warm up quickly with her and enjoy his walks! ”

About: As a cat owner myself, I understand the importance of finding a trustworthy pet sitter to care for your animals and your home. I am experienced in caring for adult dogs and cats, and I have one 3 year old kitty of my own! I will always strive my best to be open, communicative, and I will treat your pets as my own.

I will be available this holiday season 2025! I live in an apartment complex, so I would not be able to provide any boarding services, only drop in services to your living space.
“Emily is the best and the sweetest! She’s been walking Curtis while I’m at work for a couple weeks now and he is always so happy to see her. It’s clear that she cares for your pup as if they were her own. Emily is also so respectful, she asked questions to confirm his habits, what I like to do with him on walks, and if there’s anything she needs to look out for. It means a lot that she takes such good care of my sweet boy and respects my home. Will definitely continue to rebook weekly!”
About: I’m the go to pet sitter! I have taken care of dogs, cats, bunnies etc. I am a huge animal person and strive to make any and all pets comfortable and happy. I have worked with small and large (including my own horse) so I am familiar with any and all types of pets. I do work full time but have a very flexible schedule. Although I work best with routine (as much as your animals) I can work with the times you give me! As much as I would love to do in house sitting, I have two fur babies that love their space. I wouldn’t want to jeopardize that!

As frequent travelers ourselves, we provide the same service we would hope to receive when we hit the road. :) I am currently between jobs and available very flexibly in May / June to care for your home and pets. My partner works remote and joins me for added safety and extra care. I care for animals as if they are my own. It’s important to comfort them during the time their owners are away, and I am also aware that I am not there to change anything from how you like them to be cared for.

I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home — I treat every space respectfully and communicate clearly with regular updates and photos. I have experience with: • High-energy and working breeds • Senior dogs • Special needs care • Confident leash handling (including strong pullers) • Puppies and structured routines Because I work creatively and maintain a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide steady supervision and companionship — especially helpful for pets who need extra attention. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed, and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize consistency, supervision, and quality time with the pets in my care. For house sitting and boarding, I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I am typically able to provide multiple walks per day for dogs, structured activity for high-energy pets, and steady companionship throughout the day. For pets with specific routines or needs, I am happy to follow detailed instructions to ensure continuity and comfort. :) Safety and trust are my top priorities! In a client’s home, I carefully follow all provided instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and household guidelines. I treat every home with the utmost respect and ensure doors, gates, and crates are secured properly at all times. For boarding in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and structured environment. Pets are supervised, walked on secure leashes, and given appropriate physical and mental stimulation based on their energy level. I avoid off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets can relax and feel cared for. :)
About: My family had a dog that we got when I was 7 that just recently passed. Plus, most members of my family have dogs, so I’ve become very good at handling them, their behavior, and needs. I’ve been asked to dog sit for friends and family alike and have had only good experiences, and I’d love to get to spend time with pups and help people out whilst they go away by giving them someone to trust with their dog! And breeds don’t scare me, I love pit bulls and others of the like! They’ve also been part of my life and something I’ve learned to cherish and respect! This would be a part-time job for the summer, so I’d have plenty of time to be with your animal! I’m available weekdays Mon-Friday! There may be a week here and there that I’m out of town, but I’d love to make pets my priority this summer! I’m obviously super respectful of people’s space and whatnot, I’d never touch or wander in your home. I won’t be able to pet sit in my home because I have 2 cats of my own and they wouldn’t do well with other animals, but as for other people’s homes I will do anything you need me too. I’m sure instructions will be necessary to care for each individual animal, and I’m a wonderful direction follower and try to go above and beyond to make sure your home and yards stays neat while I care for your pet.
About: Big heart, gentle hands, and plenty of treats! I’m dedicated to providing a fun, stress-free environment for your pets. Whether it’s long walks or cozy cuddles, your fur baby will be in the best of care with me. Full-time care for your best friend! Because I’m a stay-at-home mom, I have the flexibility to provide around-the-clock attention. Our typical day includes cozy indoor playtime and daily neighborhood walks with my baby in tow. It’s the perfect environment for pets who love a consistent routine and a family atmosphere. I can't wait to welcome your pup into our daily adventures! I’m a firm believer that pets are family! When your fur baby stays with me, they get full access to cuddles on the couch and endless yard fun (fenced). If I’m visiting your home, I take pride in being a respectful guest who focuses entirely on keeping your pet happy and tired out. You can expect plenty of photo updates, quick communication, and one very happy pet upon your return!
About: I'm around dogs all the time. I used to work in a dog-friendly office so I got to play with them and pet them during business hours (which I admittedly did quite a bit of) and I am a dog owner so I get to play with them and pet them when I am home. I also watch my sisters' dogs when they go out of town. Long story short, I have lots of experience raising, caring for, and loving dogs and would treat yours like I would my own. I was recently laid off so am home and available essentially 24/7 right now and would love to be able to help out with your pet care needs, whatever they may be. I have one dog of my own that has full reign of my condo. I do not have a yard, but I take him out for walks/potty breaks at least 3 times a day. I can walk your dog as often as you like and if I’m house sitting I will respect whatever your rules are (ie if no pets allowed on the couch while you’re there then same when I’m there) I can walk your dog however frequently and for whatever amount of time you prefer. I usually take my own dog on one long walk (about 1 hr to 1.5 hrs) a day and then a shorter one (about 20-30 min) so that’s the amount of time I’m used to spending on walks. I am also available to dog sit at your home or simply check in on your pet as well. I can even bring my own dog over to hang out with your pets (with your expressed permission up front of course).

“Monique was a loving, caring, and responsible sitter for our 1.5 year-old Mini Poodle, Kiki. Monique sent us Kiki updates and photos every day... even more during the first days when we were most anxious. The photos and updates showed Kiki playing with Monique's kids, snuggling with them on the sofa, enjoying her treats, and going on walks. That reassurance was much appreciated! Monique's house is neat and clean, in a nice neighborhood, with a secured backyard, park space nearby, and lots of nearby places to walk to. Kiki came home in high spirits and weight-neutral. Overall, this is a great sitter and a great place for Kiki when we're away on vacation.”
“Absolutely amazing experience leaving our beloved Bulldogs with Sara and her family for a long weekend. She had great questions at drop-off, was in constant communication with updates and photos throughout the stay, and even provided cute little pet report cards at pick-up. HIGHLY recommend. We will definitely be requesting her services again the future.”
“Laura was fantastic. She’s very quick to respond and took my dog on a very short notice. She was great with him. He was so happy to be with her and her dogs. He came home happy and healthy. Thank you so much!!!”
“We had an amazing experience with our dog sitters! They took such great care of our dogs and truly went above and beyond. They walked them regularly, sent us lots of pictures and updates, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. What impressed us most was how attentive they were to each of our dogs’ individual personalities and specific needs. It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals they look after and took the time to make sure every one of our dogs was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. To top it all off, they ended our booking with a fantastic report card that summarized everything our dogs did while we were away. It was such a thoughtful touch and showed just how dedicated they are. We couldn’t have asked for better care and will absolutely be booking with them again. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitters!”
“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.”
“Alexandra is the best of the best! She is a major dog lover and made us feel very comfortable while our baby Timber was spending time with her. We received daily pictures and updates, as well as ensured any of our special requests were met. Her home is clean and secure, which is a major plus! We will definitely be booking with her 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.”
“Highly recommend as Violet and husband were very communicative and easy to work with. Their house is very conducive for an active breed dog and they have dogs of their own so your dogs will never be bored at their house. Will definitely book with Violet again when I need a sitter for Rocco.”
“We had a wonderful experience with our dog sitter while we were out of town. They took excellent care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and photos, and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Our dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We really appreciated their reliability, kindness, and attention to detail. We would absolutely trust them with our dog again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
“Irene is so wonderful! I had 2 weeks of travel planned and had just gotten a new puppy. I was so nervous about leaving him because he wasn’t fully vaccinated and needed to be kept inside. Irene was so accommodating and communicative. My dog absolutely loves her and was treated like he was a part of her family. Will be using Irene again in the next couple weeks!”
“Vanessa watched my Toki for me for 3 nights and she did the most amazing job! I like to keep Toki clean and she came back to me in very pristine condition. I feel so comfortable leaving Toki with Vanessa, I’ll definitely book again 🎉”
“Chelsea is the best! She took such a wonderful care of Raider when we were on vacation. She is so thoughtful and sent such adorable updates. It looked like our dog Raider was on a vacation too! :-) Thank you again Chelsea for spoiling him and giving him a home away from home. If we could give her more than 5 stars we would! We look forward to having Raider stay with you and your wonderful family again. /The Turners”
“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“Laura took amazing and loving care of our pup while we were away for a weekend. She gave us thoughtful updates and hippo loved her spacious yard which he was able to play in and explore during his stay!”
“Marlo is wonderful! She genuinely loves her dogs, and she puts so much time and effort into giving them the best time ever. We trust her so much, and she gives the cutest updates. Thank you, Marlo!”
“Chris is amazing! He is super chill and amazing with dogs. My dog Fenchy had a really good time for 4 days. Chris updated me with pictures and I can tell that my doggy had her own little holiday with Chris. She loved him! I can only recommend Chris - thank you so much for taking such a great care over my baby 🥰”
About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.

“Erin is a gem. She worked around my schedule and cared for my dog Journey while I was in the hospital. He made new friends while he was there and was exhausted when he came home from his adventure. She was very accommodating to his special diet and supplement routine as well. We will be a returning client as needed so Journey can have more new adventures and be embraced by Erin’s care.”
“Tammy Jeff are very kind people. They have a great house and backyard to host your pets. I received photos of my happy dog and if she could talk im sure she would tell me how much fun she had! Thanks Tammy and Jeff”
