“Anton took such good care of our dog Milton. He sent us numerous photos while we were on our trip. After a bad experience at a boarding kennel we couldn’t send our dog back to a kennel. We needed something different. Anton gave Milton some organic pumpkin in his food to help with his digestion and made sure he was properly hydrated. We are truly grateful. We will continue to take Milton to Anton when we go on trips. We don’t worry at all while we were gone. Anton kept Milton safe and hydrated.”
“Been anxious at first as it’s going to be our first time with Sujit.. he was flexible and accommodating with time… very good coordinating and easing anxiety being away from our pet… Thank you”
“We had to board our beloved Coco for the very first time, and naturally we were very nervous about leaving her with anyone. From the moment we met Merilu, she made us feel comfortable and reassured that Coco would be in good hands. Merilu and her family took exceptional care of Coco and truly treated her like one of their own. They happily accommodated all of our requests, including not using a cage and allowing Coco to sleep on the bed, which meant a lot to us since Coco has never been crated. Throughout Coco’s stay, we received regular updates with photos and videos every day, along with quick responses whenever we had questions. Seeing Coco happy, playful, and comfortable gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we picked Coco up, she looked healthy, relaxed, and genuinely happy, which says everything about the love and care she received. It’s clear that Merilu has a true passion for animals and provides a safe, loving home rather than just a boarding service. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care Coco received and wouldn’t hesitate to trust Merilu again. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pet with love, patience, and genuine affection, I highly recommend Merilu. Thank you for making Coco’s first boarding experience such a positive and stress-free one for both Coco and our family!”
“Excellent experience! Buffy loved Deana and came home happy and relaxed. I really appreciated the updates and the photos throughout the boarding and it's clear that Deana genuinely loved and cares for the dogs. High recommend and will definitely book again!”
“We felt very reassured that Osler was in capable hands during his stay. Kent is very knowledgeable about pet care and cares a great deal about them. Our dog is older and is timid, but acclimated to Kent’s pack very well. We would not hesitate to have Kent care for Osler for longer periods of time in the future.”
“Dipankar and Nagma have been wonderful! They consistently keep me updated with messages and pictures. I can trust that my dog is in good hands. I’m also glad that their dog gets along so good with mine and they end up playing together all day. I would recommend them for all services.”
“I am so thankful I found Punam. She took great care of my dog. I was nervous because I had to quickly and unexpectedly go out of town, leaving behind the dog I had rescued only 3 weeks prior. She kept me updated daily and sent photos which was very reassuring for me. I will definitely board my dog with her again.”
“Anu did an awesome job watching our two puppies for a week while on vacation. She was great at communicating and sending us pictures to keep us posted on the fur babies. Highly recommend!”
“Cooper was genuinely cared for and very well taken care of by Rachana and her family! We were at peace due to regular and detailed updates about his settling in phase. Being an anxious pup, Cooper needs a considerable amount of patience and love to feel at home and he seemed to feel at ease very soon at Rachana’s place. Their pup is super friendly too and was great company for Cooper during his stay! Thank you for your care and affection towards Cooper!”
“Bonnie was great with sending updates and pictures. Her children were great with Malu as well. I definitely would recommend her to any other pet parents! Thank you again Bonnie!”
“Tracey, her family, and Bentley the Berndoodle were all wonderful. We did an advance meet and greet with my dogs and hers- they all got along great. Bentley is a character and I can’t imagine another dog not getting along with his playful bouncy energy. Tracey is awesome, thoughtful, communicated great and really just a nice lady. Highly! Recommend this family”
“Our vacation is over & we had a wonderful time without having to worry about our American bulldog Lucy!! We knew when we left her with Peter that she was in excellent hands. She had other doggy playmates & had a wondeful time playing with them & Peter assured us when we picked her up that they enjoyed her very much & that all went well! I cannot tell you how much it meant to us to be able to leave Lucy in such good hands with people who obviously love animals and treat them so lovingly! We will definitely be using DogVacay in the future & Peter will be our first choice! Thank you again Peter for an excellent job well done!! P&M”
“Tiffany was amazing! If you have an anxious/nervous dog, I definitely recommend Tiffany, she was amazing with my dog. Thank you so much for everything I definitely will be rebooking again!”
“Biswas was great with the pups and seems to be confident with all types of dogs. The environment was very relaxed and he took his time introducing all the dogs. He’s got a nice yard where they can lounge around and sends pics and videos. My dogs are high anxiety and I appreciated all the care he took to ensure everyone was relaxed and happy. Highly recommend!”
“Georgia is exceptional! My 13 year old ragdoll Meow Meow who has medical Needs needed a last minute place to stay. Georgia was attentive to all medical needs and provided a great place away from home. Meow Meow usually takes time to acclimate to a new environment but with Georgia's care she settled right in and had a great time! Highly recommended!!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Jazelyn. She was really kind and attentive, keeping me updated with photos, videos and messages throughout my cat’s stay. My cat seemed comfortable and well-cared for, and we felt confident knowing they were in good hands. Her own cat was super friendly too and even tried to play with mine. I highly recommend Jazelyn to anyone looking for a reliable, loving environment for their pets.😊”

About: I’ve been surrounded by pets throughout my childhood and into adulthood, and caring for animals has always been a natural and meaningful part of my life. Growing up, I learned the joy and responsibility that comes with having a pet — from everyday care and companionship to understanding their individual personalities and needs. Over the years, my love for animals has only grown. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, giving them attention, keeping them comfortable, and making sure they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. As a lifelong pet owner and animal lover, I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same patience, kindness, and affection I would want for my own.

Treo has been working at a pet care facility for 12. Together they have adopted two dogs, a cat and a bunny, with many more to come! We know a lot of pets require 24 hour care but some pet sitters might not be unable to give that due to schedule conflict. A problem we have taken care of by offering our 2 for 1 pet sitter special! We have lots of experience with different kinds of animals and temperaments. From chickens to lizards, we have got you covered! We also have lots of experience with young pups, senior dogs, giving medications and other varying special needs! * We understand how important and stressful it can be finding the perfect person for your pet care needs and we want to support you however we can. With that being said, we ask that you please disclose prior to meeting if you have already booked with or are seriously considering another party.

Des takes care of the pets in the day time; morning walk, breakfast, a bit of playtime. Treo is home for the evening routine; dinner, walk and lots of attention. While we don’t offer sitting in our home, we don’t let that stop us from providing the best care in yours. We make sure to respect the space and leave everything exactly as we found it.
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I adopted one. During the pandemic I decided to adopt a black cat (shadow boo) who I adore. Then, when I got married I adopted another cat (Petunia) who I adore too. I learned so much about cats and learn many things I did not know before having one. This is because I used to take care of only dogs before. Cats are very unique creatures that deserve all of our respect and we should definitely learn more from them. I will take care of your cat like if it is my own. We truly need more sassiness in this home.
About: I helped my mom take care of the family cats along with fostering 2 litters with her. I took a kitty (Binxs) from one of our most recent litters and he is my pride and joy. My mom also worked with the animals at petco and learned a lot about handling cats she’s taught me all she knows about cats.

Right now I only work part time but if anyone needs me to help out I’ll be there!

“This was my first time using Rover. I had a positive experience and plan to request dogsitting services in the future with Anton. Anton provided updates, including pictures and videos, which made me feel all the more comfortable!”
“Merilu was so wonderful for doggy day care for my dog! He stayed with her for three days when I had some long work days. He was so excited to see her after only the first day. It looked like he had fun with her cute bichon too. Highly recommend Merilu for day care!”

“Dominic was great with my pups, one of which is pathologically shy. A true dog whisperer. On time, personable, knowledgeable and professional and obviously someone who loves dogs and has their best interests at heart.”
About: I personally have 11 cats in our house and seven dogs. Most of the dogs are 30 pounds or less but we also have a golden retriever and a labrador. I have some experience giving medication but depends on how open your pet is to their meds. I currently work full time hours but have time for overnight stays on the weekends. I also have time for drop in/checkup visits and walks on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday after 6pm. On Fridays I have time for drop in visits noon or later. Exact details can be discussed based on location. I only offer services in the comfort of your own home as I have too many animals at my house to make accommodations. Having your pet remain in your home will help them feel more at ease in your absence.
About: I’ve handled pets of many kinds for the past 10 years, I currently work at a veterinary hospital with the experience and capability to know when there may be an emergency & when care is needed. I love all animals & I look forward to caring for your fur (if they have fur) babies ❤️ I work full time and usually have 3 days off at the end of my week (Thursday-Saturday) I do have availability daily after 6:30 pm. I am very vigilant and observant, I like to be aware of surroundings for your pets safety, I will also have a form signed for your pets well being in case of an emergency or any other urgent reasoning.
“Jazelyn walked our dogs and cleaned the litter for our cats while I was away at a conference. She always left a Rover card with photos and updates at the end of each walk. Our dogs are not the easiest to walk, but Jazelyn was able to manage them, and it looked like they had a great time. We'd recommend her to anyone!”
About: I used to have an auggie, which I sadly had to give away when we moved. He was very hyper and loved to play. I walked around the neighborhood with him, took him to the dog park - or played with him at home in order to tire him out. I am a college student currently taking online classes, I have plenty of time before or after class to take care of your furry companion(s) I like to make sure my own pets have a clean and comfortable environment, refilling and cleaning their food and water dishes as well as any litter. I also love to play with them and give em treats. I'll make sure to give your fur babies the same treatment!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. But, when I acquired more responsibilities was when I moved in with my sister to SoCal and I started helping her take care of her dogs, two schnauzers and one yorkie. I would take them hiking, walking, and to the grooming salon. I would buy them enrichment toys and play with them every evening. Then, when I moved to NorCal for school, I adopted a dog, a Labrador. Now, I do the same as before but with more mental and physical exercise since my dog requires it. Taking care of dogs has always been part of me, my grandma was the same and that’s something she gifted me. I enjoy every aspect of it and the responsibilities that come with it. Dogs are a big responsibility and I will make sure to take care of your doggy, as if it’s mine. I am currently working from home so I have plenty of time to play and take care of your doggy. Currently with Hunter we go out four times a day, two times for physical exercise and potty breaks and the other two times only for walks to go potty. Hunter loves to play fetch and hide and seek. We hide the ball and he searches for it, this is his favorite game and it works for mental and physical exercise. We are very active and we exercise Hunter a lot but if your doggy is not like that, no problem, we can go only for walks and Hunter can play by himself. I have a fenced yard and a catio (patio for cats) where my cats spend most of the day. Dogs don’t have access to the catio since that’s the cats safe place. Hunter and the cats get along but my cats don’t play much with hunter, they are very lazy and only care about sleeping, sunbathing, and wet food. Hunter is VERY friendly, the nicest dog I ever known and loves to play all the time. Hunter has been around dogs of multiple sizes and ages from a 10 year old yorkie to a 2 year old labrador. Hunter is not neutered but he is not aggressive and territorial other than marking plants and trees outside at the park.
About: I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own that are my fur babies! I’ve always had pets my entire life and love animals. Snuggles, playing, and belly rubs are a must! Your fur baby will be well taken care of while you are away! I currently work full time and have a special needs son that requires a lot of medical expenses so the extra income is needed. Evenings while the weather is cooler is ideal for walks and outside time. I can be available weekends as well! I will take great care of your pet while you’re away! Walks and playtime and snuggles are a must! I’ll make sure their food and water are filled and they’re happy!
About: 🐾Love By Pets. Recommended by humans. Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, breeds, temperaments, and care levels. Improving the lives of animals is my passion. Every pet that enters my care is treated like family, receiving the same love, patience, respect, protection and individualized attention I would want for my own beloved pets. Whether you have a puppy, a fragile senior, a pregnant or nursing mother, a shy rescue, or a pet with medical, behavioral, or anxiety-related challenges, I provide compassionate, personalized care tailored to their unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, enriching, stress-free and FUN experience that allows pets to thrive while giving their owners complete peace of mind. ✨ Experience Includes: • All ages. Puppies, kittens (bottle feeding ok 👍🏻), seniors, and hospice care • Pregnant animals and nursing mothers • Medication administration and specialized care plans • Medical, behavioral, and anxiety-related conditions • Fearful, reactive, rescue, and special-needs pets • Giant breeds (120–200+ lbs), toy breeds, and everything in between • Bully breeds, guardian breeds, working dogs, and high-drive breeds • Exotic and specialty felines • Birds, reptiles, and small animals • Multi-pet households My experience extends far beyond traditional pet sitting. I have spent years working with animal rescues and participating in Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) and community cat programs, helping care for and advocate for vulnerable animals. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, body language, trust-building, and how to safely handle pets with a wide range of personalities and backgrounds. I have also been honored to participate in efforts supporting families through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, including helping facilitate meaningful visits for children whose wish was to spend time with animals and pets. These experiences further strengthened my commitment to compassion, reliability, and providing comfort during life’s most meaningful moments. Caring for others—both human and animal—is at the heart of everything I do. Communication is one of my highest priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout your pet’s stay so you can relax and enjoy your time away knowing your family member is safe, happy, and loved. 💗 What Makes My Care Different? • Personalized, one-on-one attention for the duration • Flexible and accommodating scheduling • Solo daycare available upon request • Extended stays welcome • Customized routines tailored to your pet • Calm, loving, family-oriented environment • Experience with pets requiring advanced handling skills • Care from someone who genuinely loves animals and understands their individual needs Many of my clients become long-term members of my pet-care family. I’m proud to have earned the trust of repeat clients who rely on me to care for everything from tiny teacups and exotic pets to giant breeds, working dogs, bully breeds, seniors, rescues, and pets with complex medical or behavioral needs. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else is a big decision. That’s why I focus on building trust, maintaining open communication, and ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, understood, and loved from the moment they arrive. I look forward to welcoming your furry, feathered, or scaly family member and giving them the same level of care, compassion, and attention I would give my own. Because every pet deserves more than just a sitter—they deserve family. 🐾💕 My schedule revolves around pet care already. Caring for animals has been a major part of my daily life for many years through pet care/sitting/walking etc, animal rescue work, and caring for my own pets. While your pet is with me, this is their time and all of my focus and attention is on them for the duration of the booking. This allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, playtime, companionship, medication administration when needed, and plenty of supervision throughout the day. I strive to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a flexible schedule, or specialized care, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs. Every pet is unique, so I tailor my care to each animal’s individual personality, routine, and needs. Before every booking, I take the time to learn about feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, favorite activities, fears, quirks, and any special instructions. Owner guidance and instructions are key to providing the best possible booking and any information provided will be followed closely (and greatly appreciated!). One thing that sets my care apart is that I do not use kennels or crates unless they are already part of your pet’s normal routine and you specifically request it. My goal is for pets to feel comfortable, secure, and at home—not confined unnecessarily. For families looking for a more personalized experience, I also offer accommodations such as Private Doggy Daycare, Private Kitty Daycare, Private Canine Camp, and Private Kitty Camp, where your pet can be the only guest in my care for the duration of their stay. I am always happy to discuss special requests and customize care whenever possible. Whether caring for a tiny breed, a giant breed, a working dog, a bully breed, a senior pet, or a rescue animal with unique needs, safety, comfort, and individualized attention always come first.
About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with both energetic puppies (training basics) and cherished senior dogs (comfort, special needs). I offer personalized care tailored to your pet's life stage, drawing from years of experience with my own pack. My pet care routine is built around consistent daily attention, thanks to my schedule where I'm only working evenings on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. This allows me to provide regular potty breaks, meals, and plenty of engaging activities throughout the day, Monday through Wednesday morning, and all day Thursday through Sunday. My pets thrive with this level of presence and dedicated care. When pets stay in my home, they get a loving, family-like atmosphere with constant supervision, plenty of playtime, and a securely fenced yard. They're treated as one of my own! But as for For in-home visits, I come to you! Your pet stays comfortable in their familiar environment, sticking to their usual routine for feeding, walks, and potty breaks. I ensure their safety and your home's security.

I have experience in caring all kinds of animals, from rabbits, to birds to snakes. I love doing this because animals just bring me a lot of joy.

About: I helped my parents take care of there friends dogs since I was 8 and they've taught me a lot. Also my mom worked at Petco and worked in animal care and she told me and taught me what she's learned from her experience at work with cats and other animals. I've been currently looking for a job and havent had any luck so I have a lot of free time on my hands weekdays and weekends!! When we went to go sit my parents friends dogs we would feed them every morning and evening and then let them run around in the backyard they had a doggie door in their bedroom so for the most part the dogs had access to the bathroom to go potty and come and go as they please. But when we hung out in the living room with them since there was no access to a doggy door we would let them out around 3-4 times per day we would also walk them in the morning and sunset and feed them either before or after there walk depending on their actions and vibes

“Anton took such good care of our dog Milton. He sent us numerous photos while we were on our trip. After a bad experience at a boarding kennel we couldn’t send our dog back to a kennel. We needed something different. Anton gave Milton some organic pumpkin in his food to help with his digestion and made sure he was properly hydrated. We are truly grateful. We will continue to take Milton to Anton when we go on trips. We don’t worry at all while we were gone. Anton kept Milton safe and hydrated.”

“Tracey, her family, and Bentley the Berndoodle were all wonderful. We did an advance meet and greet with my dogs and hers- they all got along great. Bentley is a character and I can’t imagine another dog not getting along with his playful bouncy energy. Tracey is awesome, thoughtful, communicated great and really just a nice lady. Highly! Recommend this family”
“Our vacation is over & we had a wonderful time without having to worry about our American bulldog Lucy!! We knew when we left her with Peter that she was in excellent hands. She had other doggy playmates & had a wondeful time playing with them & Peter assured us when we picked her up that they enjoyed her very much & that all went well! I cannot tell you how much it meant to us to be able to leave Lucy in such good hands with people who obviously love animals and treat them so lovingly! We will definitely be using DogVacay in the future & Peter will be our first choice! Thank you again Peter for an excellent job well done!! P&M”

Highly recommend!”

“Nikki and her family were absolutely amazing with our dog, LeBron, during his week-long stay in their home. They welcomed him like part of the family and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. They sent daily updates and photos, which truly made our day and gave us peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for. He also had a great time playing with their older dog, Edie, and it was clear he felt comfortable and happy throughout his stay. Their communication was outstanding from start to finish, and you can tell they genuinely love the dogs they care for. They even went above and beyond by being flexible when our travel plans unexpectedly changed and were able to keep him for an extra day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend Nikki and her family to anyone looking for caring, trustworthy, and reliable sitters. We will absolutely book with them again.”
