“Sarah and Kyle were amazing during Breaux’s stay. Though Breaux was a little nervous at first, with Kyle and Sarah’s beautiful home and energy, she began to settle in nicely. Swimmingly, to say the least. I received photos of my baby smiling and relaxing having a good time. Then the thoughtful Polaroid at the end wrapped it up with a beautiful bow. Their thoughtfulness will be felt throughout as Breaux has adopted them as a part of her pack. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Monique did a fantastic job in watching our doggo for a few days! Always kept us updated with pictures and how the dog was doing. She was also very responsive to questions and allowing us to pick our dog up a day early. Thank you Monique!”
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing while babysitting my dog, Cooper, during my time away. She went above and beyond to give me constant updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that she treated Cooper just as I would at home—he looked so happy, comfortable, and well cared for in every update. I am eternally grateful for her kindness, attentiveness, and dedication. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to anyone looking for top-notch pet care!”
“Karrie was absolutely wonderful with our babies. One of our dogs is almost 17 and needs a little extra attention and Karrie was so patient and caring. We also received picture updates while we were gone and I dogs loved going to the dog park with her.”
“If we can recommend anybody to watch over your pup we recommend Berenisse! We left our fur baby for 3 nights 4 days with Berenisse and during that time, Berenisse was in contact with us, showing us videos and pictures of our pup and keeping us up to date with our puppy’s activities. While on vacation, Berenisse made our trip worry free and gave us that peace of mind that our puppy was in great hands. Berenisse is very knowledgeable, and professional. Thank you Berenisse for everything. We will be coming back for sure 👍🏽”
About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Robert was amazing! He was kind, communicative, and incredibly flexible, even accommodating my last-minute booking on New Year’s Eve. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Hanna and co were amazing. It was little drive but well worth taking our Callie over to her. Loved the photos and videos. My girl fit right in. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you so much!!”
“Danielle does such a great job taking care of our emotionally and medically complex elderly dog. We’ll feel secure in knowing our dog is well cared for whenever she stays with Danielle.”
“Brittany is an exceptional pet sitter! Milo had an amazing time and was pampered exceptionally well. We received regular updates, photos, and communications, which we greatly appreciated, especially from my kids.”
“Marin is always fantastic! She cares for our dogs like her own and provides plenty of updates during their stay. We're always happy to leave our fur babies in her capable hands!”
“I had a last minute change to my Thanksgiving plans to go out of town, and thankfully Ashley was available to host Rowdy. He was a happy pup when I picked him up. I'd book with her again!”

“Alison is awesome. She went the extra mile to make sure my cat took his meds. You can tell she really cares about animals and would not hesitate to hire her again. Thank you Alison!!”
“Delightful! Our cats are pretty shy so we weren't expecting much but Dayna was able to get pictures of them without a problem. She was very flexible and made us feel much better about being away from our pets for a week. Definitely at the top of our list for next time!”
“We were very happy with Shaundra taking care of our two cats! Loved the updates with pictures! We felt at ease and comfortable leaving our babies in her care. Highly recommend Shaundra to anyone looking for a pet sitter!”
“Alison was wonderful and patient with my doggies. She offered to come meet us before the weekend to get to know the dogs and their needs. I was able to show her how to administer meds and meals. On the days of booking, Alison followed all instructions and my pups were relaxed and happy when I retuned at the end of each day. It can be very hard to find help as a single person in a new town with senior dogs! Alison was wondeful and I would definitely book her again. I highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and love caring for them like they’re part of the family. I’ve helped watch over pets for friends and relatives whether it’s daily walks, feeding, giving fresh water, or lots of belly rubs! I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to relaxed seniors. I always try to build trust with each pet and make sure they feel happy and relaxed while their owners are away. I know how important routines are, and I’m careful to follow any specific instructions to keep your dog safe, healthy, and comfortable. 🗓️ My typical availability during the week:)) Monday: 6:00am - 3:00pm Tuesday: 6:00am - 3:30pm Wednesday: 6:00am - 3:00pm Thursday: 6:00am-9:30am, 7:00pm-8:00pm Friday: 6:00am - 8:00pm Saturday: 6:00am - 8:00pm Sunday: 6:00am - 8:00pm Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

I follow all care instructions carefully and communicate clearly with pet parents, sending updates and photos so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I treat every dog like family and work hard to earn their trust and keep them happy.
“Jeanette did a great job with my two cats, even though they are both scarred cats and wouldn’t come out to greet her! They were fed and happy when we returned home. She texted me each day and fed one outdoor cat as well. She also cleaned up cat food bowls and the litter box. A+”
“Erin is wonderful! She took care of our little Cat fur babies when we were away, making sure that they were well fed, clean and loved. One of the cats is a bit more reserved, but when he first met Erin, he instantly bonded with her. Erin was punctual everyday, quick to provide us with updates and even sent us pictures of the babies. She even went the extra mile to wheel our trash bin in after collection day! How sweet! Thank you Erin for being so great and loving our babies, and hope that you would be available next time when we take another short trip.”

About: Hi there! 👋 My name is Berenisse and I’m a Certified Basic Obedience Dog Trainer based in Buellton, CA. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and what started as a hobby has grown into my true passion. I bring a well-rounded background to pet care and training. I’ve worked as a vet tech and as a dog trainer’s assistant, giving me valuable hands-on experience with dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I also have some experience in dog agility training, which I love incorporating for fun and exercise when appropriate. My approach to training and care is rooted in positive reinforcement—building trust, respect, and clear communication with every dog. I believe all dogs deserve patience, love, and encouragement, and I enjoy tailoring my care to meet each pup’s unique needs. I’m also very active, so whether your dog needs structured training, a playful walk, or an energetic workout buddy, I’m happy to be there for them. More than anything, I truly understand how much dogs enrich our lives—and I treat every dog as if they were my own. 🐾 Loving care, respectful training, and lots of tail wags guaranteed! Most of the time I work from home, I do drive around some days and when I am caring for dogs I try to incorporate car rides, physical and mental activity to keep them happy, healthy and to provide a positive experience. They get constant walks, the dog park is a couple blocks away from my house and I do take advantage of that to make sure they get their daily physical and mental estimulation.
“Ashley was fantastic! Her communication was great and kept me up to date on how my cats were doing. She sent me pictures of them which I greatly appreciate! I would definitely hire her to look after my cats again!”
“Gloria has been absolutely amazing with my puppy Rocket! During our busy work weeks, she would pop in to get him out of his kennel, make sure he was well cared for, and always cleaned up after him. She even took the time to teach him little tricks, which was such a sweet bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares and brought him toys she thought he would like. I completely trust her with my dog, and that peace of mind means everything to me. I plan to keep booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care”

About: Hello Families! I love all animals and ready to help care for yours while you're away! I grew up on a farm with my parents, and ever since I can remember, we've always had animals around. They ran a non-profit animal rescue for many years, and this taught me much about the responsibilities of caring for an animal. I was also able to learn about different breeds and their temperaments. Although they are nice to play with, we were also taught that with the pleasurable part, also comes the dirty work. I've cleaned much animal poop in my life! My sister and I have ridden horses since we were young, we've volunteered at different animal shelters, and we have brought injured animals into our home to take care of them. I recently graduated and received my Bachelor's degree. I'm continuing my education, which makes me available to go to your home during weekday evenings or weekends (all day). I also offer boarding at my home (24/7), which is safe and secure. I have several yards for your pet(s) to play and exercise. I can feed, administer medication if needed, exercise, clean litter-boxes, and give your pet(s) the love and attention they deserve! I understand your pet(s) have become part of your family, and I will take care of them as if they were my own! If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask! I hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Mia
“Monique was awesome, super nice home in gated community, next to a park, constant communication, with pics sent. Highly recommend and would definitely take my Ben to her again! Thank you Monique :-)”
“Robert is reliable, caring and will be there for your pup to help take care of them when you schedule with him. Working two jobs right now and grateful I found him to help with all the juggling. Definitely recommend 👍🏽 👍🏽”
“Thank you for taking excellent care of Winnie while I attended a wedding! She clearly enjoyed her time with you and your son. I love that you prioritized her comfort on a very hot day, let her hang out on your bed, and accepted my absurd amount of dog supplies that I handed you at drop-off. I appreciate that after it became clear your dog was a bit much for her (un-neutered and a little too boy-ish), you kept them separate. Would re-book if I came back to the area and needed help in the future!”
“Kyle and Sara watched Scoobert two days in a row for us and they were amazing. Scoobert gets so excited when we pull up to their house. He runs to their front door and is so happy to see them. Their photos and updates are proof he’s having a good time.. We will definitely have them watch Scoobert again. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!”
“This was our second day, and I was so happy to see how comfortable my dog became. She has separation anxiety, but today she wagged her tail and walked in calmly, which felt like a huge step forward. I really appreciate the patient, reassuring environment—it made a big difference for her sense of safety. Thank you for taking such good care of her.”
“Danielle was great with my dog Brody! Brody has anxiety and gets worried about new situations so he was anxious but no need to worry, I picked up a very happy dog! Danielle was very caring with Brody and gave him time to settle in. Thankyou so much!”
“Ashley was great with our Calvin! She offered to pick him up each night and drop him off and he got to play with her fur babies on their nice property. She was very easy to communicate with and answered quickly. He definitely enjoyed his time there.”
“Brittany is an outstanding dig sitter for anyone. Along with being very responsible and professional, she has a great personality and is considerate of the needs of pet owners. Her dog Rio got along very well with my dog Kenzo and kept him entertained all day. 5 stars for sure; I hope to be rebooking with Brittany soon!”
“Incredible service and care for our dog. Stephanie is amazing with dogs, and spent her time with Otis training him and having our dogs run around outside to get his energy out. She was so kind and responsive, we’ll continue to use her whenever we can.”
“Gloria’s home was the perfect fit for my dog to spend his day. He had treats, walks, and other pups to play with. She was such a great communicator. From sending pics to asking clarifying questions about his needs - I just knew she cared about him as if he were her own. At the end of the day, that’s what you’re looking for!”
“Cary did a great job looking after Brody! We enjoyed the meet and greet and walk with Frank. Cary listened to me about Brody’s needs and his anxiety. Brody spent all day at Cary’s home and when I collected Brody he was a calm and happy dog. Thanks so much!”
About: I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home where dogs are treated like family. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and needs. My goal is to make your pet feel as relaxed and at home as possible while you're away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, belly rubs, or simply relaxing in a cozy spot, I'll tailor their care to what makes them happiest. I enjoy spending time outdoors, so active dogs will have opportunities for exercise, while more laid-back pups can enjoy a calm and peaceful environment. I carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and daily routines so your dog experiences as little disruption as possible. You'll receive regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is happy, safe, and receiving plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to create a positive experience that makes both pets and their owners feel comfortable coming back again. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I work a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. My own dog is an important part of our family, so caring for pets is already part of my everyday life. Whether your dog enjoys being active or prefers a calm environment, I'll make sure they receive the care, exercise, and companionship they need while staying as close as possible to their normal routine. I only accept the number of pets I can comfortably care for so that each one receives the attention, love, and supervision they deserve. If your little guy stay over he will have access to all my own has access to which is ALL AREAS of the home. We have a sunroom that has a doggie door as well which they can come in and out, i have a fence backyard. At night time they would sleep indoors or in the sunroom with the doggie door closed for the night.
“Thanks to Rover, I have found a fantastic sitter for my dog. Suzette has watched ‘Pepper’ for me, numerous times. I appreciate her timely responses, flexibility with scheduling and most importantly...I know that Pepper is well taken care of!”
“Krystal is super nice and experienced. Casper felt comfortable from the start, I left feeling good about where I left my boy for the day. When I picked him up he was in good spirits, very happy with the outcome of this experience!!”

“Thank you so much for taking care of Remmy. I loved receiving the pictures while at work. I would definitely recommend Erin to walk your dog and will definitely be using her in the future.”
About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and hands on experience caring for pets. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walks, playtime, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to keep your pet on their normal schedule. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every animal like they’re part of my own family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ❤️ I just moved here so I currently do not have a job at the moment so I will be available any time of the day you need! I have many knowledge and have been around many animals and taken care of many different types! I also was a vet tech, and I own 2 dogs and 3 cats!
About: I've had the gift of house/pet sitting for over 10 years, and it is without a doubt the most rewarding job I've ever experienced! Personally, I've had dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, horses, and hermit crabs as pets, besides the odd rescued baby bird, bunny, or mouse. On top of cats, dogs, and fish, I've had the opportunity to care for alpacas, an African grey parrot, and saltwater fish/reefs, while pet sitting. Every animal I encounter has its own identity and temperament, which is always fun and interesting to observe and base my care on. I feel like such a winner when I get a standoffish animal to trust me! Throughout my life I've had an array of animals to bond with, though for a long period recently we had just one cat. Mournfully, a few years ago, my dad and I had to part with our beloved Stevie. She was our close companion for over 15 years, and I still miss her immensely. Her quirks and routines still cross my mind, which brings all the things that made her unique and lovable up into my heart. Pet sitting warms my heart, and definitely fills the need that I still have for animal companionship (but without the heartbreak). Pet sitting is a way for me to have the joy of loving and caring for a pet in an empathetic way: in their own home, on their own schedule, stepping into their owner's (figurative) shoes for a bit, to make *everyone* more comfortable. Time and again, it's proven to be the best way I've found to give personalized care to precious pets, and allow owners to truly enjoy their time away. My part-time library job offers me a lot of flexibility, leaving me the opportunity to do more of what I love. Traveling, exploring new areas, experiencing new food, going to music events, working out/walking, spiritual activities, and creative endeavors have a place in my life because of this balance. Of course that also includes one of the most rewarding ways to punctuate my life: house and pet sitting! I base my care around the individual needs of the pet and owner! Pets LOVE their routines, so I typically live in harmony with their modus operandi, on balance with my part-time engagements.

Animals at my house get the luxury of having interaction at their paws 🐾 Animals know I understand their secret frequency. My patience, gentleness, and playful spirit make them feel like they've found their long-lost best friend. I’ve had animals by my side my whole life, which is probably why I’m basically an animal whisperer at this point. They sense my intuition — that soft, instinctive way I know exactly what they need, whether it's a snack, a cuddle, or something else. Animals aren't just pets. They're honorary members of my family; my tiny roommates with fur. My home is their kingdom; my heart is their cozy lounge. Where I go, animals follow — because they know I’m the kind of human who truly gets them. I don’t just fit animals into my schedule — I weave them into my day. My routine is delightfully flexible, perfectly shaped to welcome paws. My schedule is flexible and intuitive, allowing me to build in regular check-ins, feeding times, walks, and play sessions without stress or disruption. I move through my tasks with patience, intuition, and a sprinkle of magic — knowing exactly when a dog needs an extra trot around the block or when a cat needs a dramatic feather-toy performance. Animals slip into my schedule so naturally you’d think they helped design it. To every pet I care for, I’m the whimsical guardian who arrives right when they need me — the keeper of routines, the bringer of fun, and the human who makes their day just a little more sparkly. Safety begins with awareness, consistency, and preparation. When caring for an animal, I create a space where their physical well-being is always the first priority. That means secure environments (no open doors if they are not allowed out, hazardous items, or unsafe spaces), proper handling, and mindful supervision during walks, play, or feeding. I pay attention to their routines, health cues, and comfort levels, making sure they’re protected from stress, danger, or anything unfamiliar that could overwhelm them. A safe animal is a relaxed animal — and I make that possible. A good environment is one that supports an animal’s emotional and physical needs. I create spaces that feel safe, comfortable, and full of enrichment — spots for quiet rest, opportunities for play, and room to explore without fear. My presence makes the environment even better: calm, welcoming, and filled with positive interactions. Whether the animal is staying in my home or I’m in theirs, I make sure their surroundings feel familiar, soothing, and full of the little comforts that help them thrive.

“Sarah and Kyle were amazing during Breaux’s stay. Though Breaux was a little nervous at first, with Kyle and Sarah’s beautiful home and energy, she began to settle in nicely. Swimmingly, to say the least. I received photos of my baby smiling and relaxing having a good time. Then the thoughtful Polaroid at the end wrapped it up with a beautiful bow. Their thoughtfulness will be felt throughout as Breaux has adopted them as a part of her pack. I will definitely be booking with them again.”
“If we can recommend anybody to watch over your pup we recommend Berenisse! We left our fur baby for 3 nights 4 days with Berenisse and during that time, Berenisse was in contact with us, showing us videos and pictures of our pup and keeping us up to date with our puppy’s activities. While on vacation, Berenisse made our trip worry free and gave us that peace of mind that our puppy was in great hands. Berenisse is very knowledgeable, and professional. Thank you Berenisse for everything. We will be coming back for sure 👍🏽”
About: Hi my name is Colleen! I have been around and loved animals my whole life. I offer full-time care and live on Vandenberg SFB. For the past three years, I managed a veterinary practice. Because of this background, I am very familiar with the diverse medical and behavioral needs of dogs, cats, and horses. I am a huge dog and cat lover - at home, I have a German Shepherd and a Goldendoodle who get daily walks and lots of cuddles. Because I work from home full-time, any animal in my care will receive constant attention and supervision. I am also a very active person, so you can count on your pets getting plenty of playtime and exercise. My home is completely child-free, and visiting pets are absolutely allowed on the furniture to make them feel right at home. Additionally, I live on the military base, making it easy and convenient for me to accommodate both on-base and off-base families. Whether your pet needs high-energy play or have specialized medical needs, they will be safe, active, and loved here! Animal care is a central part of my life! I work a flexible remote schedule that allows me to be fully available for full-time care. My weekends are available and open, meaning I can dedicate plenty of quality time, structured play, and consistent attention to boarding or housesitting your pets, no matter the day of the week 🐾❤️ With a professional background in veterinary medicine and animal handling, safety is always my top priority ❤️ My home features a fully fenced yard where your dog can safely play. I’m highly experienced in reading animal behavior, maintaining clean and secure environments, administering medications if needed, and keeping a watchful eye to ensure your pet is happy and relaxed.
“Robert was amazing! He was kind, communicative, and incredibly flexible, even accommodating my last-minute booking on New Year’s Eve. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Hanna and co were amazing. It was little drive but well worth taking our Callie over to her. Loved the photos and videos. My girl fit right in. I highly recommend her and will definitely be booking again in the future. Thank you so much!!”
“Marin is always fantastic! She cares for our dogs like her own and provides plenty of updates during their stay. We're always happy to leave our fur babies in her capable hands!”
“I had a last minute change to my Thanksgiving plans to go out of town, and thankfully Ashley was available to host Rowdy. He was a happy pup when I picked him up. I'd book with her again!”

I we’ll meet all expectations and more, I will treat animals with respect and kindness and keep them well taken care of until your return!
“Maddison was AMAZING! Our three dogs had the best time and were so well taken care of! We got constant updates and pictures! Her family is now our family! Don’t hesitate, feel completely comfortable leaving your fur babies with her!”
“Andruw helped us tremendously when our initial rover cancelled the DAY before we left. He was super helpful and communicated with us very well! Would definitely recommend booking with Andruw, we will use his services again!”
“Jade and Josh were amazing! They took very good care of our senior pit bull while we were at Coachella. We got immediate responses whenever we reached out to check on our baby and they followed our care instructions and requests to a T! We also received lots of pictures. We highly recommend them and will definitely rebook in the future!”
“After another sitter cancelled last minute I was desperate to find a safe and happy spot for my dog to stay. Thankfully I found Deborah and she agreed to take us. She welcomed us to her beautiful and spotless home, gave us a little tour, including her garden,asked if we had any special requirements and made us feel at home. My little guy had a great time and made a special friend with her dog. Deborah made this a great dog sitting experience for me, no worries, no hassle, just relaxing and carefree. I can’t recommend her enough, simply amazing.”
