“Bridget did a great job with Buddy. Buddy loved hanging with his new friends, even her 2 kitty's. I received daily updates with pictures. We would engage Bridget's services again.”
“Citladi took exceptional care of Claire, making her right at home! She touched base and sent me a few photos but did not feel the need to be in constant contact with me which I appreciated. I felt great that Claire was having a fun, safe and comfortable stay!”
“Jayla was amazing with my puppy Hastings! I’m so glad we were able to get her as a last minute booking. She was very communicative by sending me pictures and updates of my puppy throughout the day. I loved how she took Hastings out on little adventures. I would definitely book her again!”
“Jill was so amazing with our dog, Meike! We were so nervous to leave her for the first time, but she was in great hands. Jill was amazing at giving her love and making her feel comfortable. She also made sure to play with her daily. We loved the daily updates and pictures. We would recommend Jill and will definitely be contacting her if we need a pet sitter in the future. She’s amazing!”
About: I have had a cat in my life since I was 5 years old. Almost all of them passed away from old age. The oldest was 17 years. For dogs, I was never able to have one growing up. We didn't have the room for one. But I have family members that had dogs and was able to help take care of them. I have dog sat for many years. During that time I would either pop in for a walk or stay with them for a few days. Now that I have a family, it's difficult to house/animal sit at other people's homes, but animals are always welcome in my home. I am currently not working. My days are filled with my 3 and 1/2-year-old daughter. I am showing her how to take care of animals. I take her to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am mostly home or going to walks or going to a park. I have a fenced yard and currently do not have a dog. I do have one cat that is mostly outdoors. I do have a medium size crate if your dog requires one. Animals are allowed on any of the furniture as long as it's not a table or a kitchen counter. I do have a small animal door leading to the backyard. I can close this off if need be.
“Helen was a great caretaker for my dog! She was quick to communicate, shared pictures of her playing with my dog multiple times over the 2 day watch, and I could just tell me dog was happy and well exercised upon pickup. Would definitely book again! Thanks Helen!”
“Carol was an incredible sitter during our trip! We felt so fortunate to leave our beloved and somewhat spoiled mini golden doodle, Augie, in the hands of both Annabelle and Carol. Their warmth and genuine care made all the difference for him. Augie was so happy and well-fed during his stay, which is quite an achievement given his picky eating habits! We would absolutely choose Carol again if given the chance. She was incredibly responsible with our precious pup and even accommodated us by allowing a late pickup. Thank you, Carol, for providing such a loving space for our furry Baby!”
About: I have experience pet sitting my sister’s animals and close friends for 1 year, I’m very active so walks are a must! I have two little kittens of my own at home who are playful, but nervous at first. IM AVAILABLE TO WALK DOGS DURING THE WEEK AFTER 5pm On the weekends i’ll go on a run, and walk to try to stay active and relax at home. Potty breaks are as much as needed, love routines and keeping them on track. I have a spacious living room for them to play and run, also there is a back yard for potty breaks as needed. I also am home for the weekends so i’ll be there to monitor the play and runs. We live near fort ord and outdoorsy vibes are all around.
“Asta was amazing with my dog! I was looking for someone who could care for Sally while I visited home for the holidays, and she was available and happy to help. They went out for walks together, hung out inside, and socialized with Asta's extremely chill dog. She sent photos and videos to update me on what they were up to each day, and I could always reach her while I was on my trip. I'll definitely have Sally stay over again!”
About: Although I have more cat experience, I would love the opportunity to become a dog sitter & work with diverse dog personalities. I have experience in the basic dog care such as feeding, walks, plays, and cleaning. I am eager to learn all routines and obligations that each dog owner would have for their pet. I am currently a stay at home momma, so I have more availability as I am not currently working. Weekends are my most beneficial availability, but can also help on a weekday too! I will be attentive to all the obligations that I need to fulfill while in a clients home. It us important to me to keep any trust that is given to me and do the best at my job with any animals.
“Jessie and her family took excellent care of our dog who came home happy and calm🐶 She communicated regularly and sent pics too. We were able to enjoy vacation knowing ore pooch was well taken care of!”
“Samantha was very active with Zoe and kept me informed throughout her entire stay. Her flexibility made my trip stress free and it was nice knowing Zoe was doing good the whole time. I am so grateful to have found her and will use her again in the future.”
“We are so happy to have found Marion to care for our little Coco. She has the most calming presence and we knew she was a good fit immediately upon meeting her. She provides a comfortable home away from home with lots of space for play.”
“Cristine was truly amazing and the best sitter we’ve ever had! From our meet and greet, her experience and passion for animals were clear right away. She is incredibly compassionate, deeply dog-loving, and extremely careful and safe (our top priority). During our flight chaos, she was the sweetest, modified, and welcomed Augie with genuine excitement, asked all the right questions, and treated him like her own (even brushing him; he came back smelling great!). We felt completely at ease the entire time. Doggies truly deserve her care, and we’ll request her every time we travel 🥹if she’s not fully booked by then from this very well deserved review! 🐾💛 Thank so much Christine! 🐶”
“Yessina and Sophie and their 3 children were the perfect introduction for my 6 month old puppy, Pixie, to experience her 1st dog sitters! They were very kind and gentle with her and her shyness didn’t faze them. Buster my 8 year old terrier who is cautious around strangers, but a real gentleman, picked his spots to lay down and wait patiently and was calm when I arrived. Even though both dogs refused to eat while they were there for the day, I was very happy with the care given by this family. They really listened to me and followed my suggestions! I’m planning on returning and rebooking with them!”
“This was my second time using Rover so there’s still some hesitation on my part. However, Kalikonani was amazing! I have a senior dog so knowing that she had a senior pup of her own, made me feel relieved that she’d understand my dog. She provided pics, updates, and was a great communicator. I definitely recommend her and will be booking with her again in the future :)”
“Jesse was so kind, patient, and considerate! I was very nervous about getting a sitter for my senior dog during my wedding weekend as he has trauma and separation anxiety, but Jesse took wonderful care of him, with frequent walks around the neighborhood to explore and plenty of pics and updates. It made such a huge difference in my stress levels to know he was safe and cared for. Will absolutely book again next time we are in the area!”
“Alyssa took wonderful care of our dog Beau for two weeks, and we couldn’t be happier. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared a lot about our pets. She even gave Beau a bath before pickup, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. Communication was smooth throughout, and she was very flexible with both drop-off and pickup times. Highly recommend Alyssa, we’d absolutely book with her again.”
“Christina has watched out dog several times in quick succession over the summer. She has been responsive, available, and flexible every time! Luca seems to love it there (and he's a bit hard to please) and is happy to return every time.”

I also send daily updates with photos so you always feel connected and reassured. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine because I’m home full-time. This allows me to give pets my full attention whether it’s regular walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. I create a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and cared for, just like they would at home. At my home, pets get plenty of love, playtime, and a calm space to relax.

About: I love all animals but I really consider myself to be a cat person (shh, don’t tell the dogs). I have grown up with cats all my life. Friends and family have relied on me to check in with their cats, and to feed, brush and play with them as much as they need. I am no stranger to cleaning litter boxes either.
“I loved Andrea taking care of my cat Billy and the odd menagerie of feral cats that live at my home. She did an outstanding job. She follow the instructions carefully and was able to follow them and feed all the cats and take good care of Billy and the others. She stayed and played with Billy, which he loved. She maintained the litter robot, which is sometimes a challenge. She kept everything clean and took care of them the day I came home so I didn’t have to worry about them. I highly recommend Andrea, she is very conscientious and pays attention to detail and send pics and is really aware of how special our babies are to us and she is very good with cats. I will use her again when I attend my brother’s wedding soon.”

“Adam was amazing. We needed someone to watch our dogs last minute. We had issues finding someone because one of our dogs was sick, but Adam jumped at the opportunity to help. He followed all special instructions and gave our dog his medicine. He even went to go pick them up! Both of our dogs absolutely loved him. He was also super communicative and sent us pictures. Will definitely book with him again!”

About: I absolutely love animals of all kinds and will provide excellent care for your pet. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give them the same level of attention, safety, and compassion I would expect for my own pet. I have experience caring for both senior dogs and puppies. I understand the importance of providing gentle, patient, and attentive care to older dogs. In addition, my fiancé and I adopted a 2.5 month old puppy in May 2022. Her name is Lola, and we successfully trained her through her puppy years. She is now two years old and is a cattle dog, husky, and border collie mix. I am also experienced with high-energy dogs that require plenty of exercise, stimulation, and attention. My fiancé and I have lived in Marina, CA for two years, and I am very familiar with local parks and great places for dog walking.

She kept an open line of communication and shared many pictures throughout the day. Seriously couldn’t have asked for a better sitter who showed so much care for our pup. Thank you again for everything.”

About: Although I have more cat experience, I would love the opportunity to become a dog sitter & work with diverse dog personalities. I have experience in the basic dog care such as feeding, walks, plays, and cleaning. I am eager to learn all routines and obligations that each dog owner would have for their pet. I am currently a stay at home momma, so I have more availability as I am not currently working. Weekends are my most beneficial availability, but can also help on a weekday too! I will be attentive to all the obligations that I need to fulfill while in a clients home. It us important to me to keep any trust that is given to me and do the best at my job with any animals.
About: I’m an upcoming third-year Molecular Biology student at CSUMB and a lifelong animal lover. My family has cared for a Havanese, Maltese, German Shepherd, and English Lab, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I also grew up riding horses and caring for pet fish, and I currently have a black cat named Salem. I’m patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe and cared for. I currently work part-time as a caregiver at The Park Lane in Monterey. Since it’s summer and I’m not taking classes right now, I have a lot more flexibility and free time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for check-ins, walks, feedings, playtime, and overnight care depending on the day and time needed. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their home environment. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, walks, and any special instructions owners provide. Growing up around cats, dogs, horses, and other animals has made me patient and reliable when caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I also understand how important trust and communication are, and I’ll always keep owners updated while they’re away.
About: Dogs have been part of my life since day one! My mom has been fostering dogs ( Shamrock Pet Foundation in Louisville) since I was a baby, so I literally grew up surrounded by dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From shy rescues to energetic puppies, I’ve had hands-on experience caring for them all. Being around dogs just comes naturally to me — they’ve always been part of my family and my everyday life. I’m confident and comfortable making them feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I always tailor care to their unique needs and personality. As a student at NPS with a flexible schedule, I have lots of time to dedicate to dog walking or pet sitting — and I’d love to spend it with your pup! Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming your pet into mine, I make sure they feel secure, loved, and relaxed. In your home, I always respect your space and routines. I follow your care instructions closely — from feeding and potty breaks to playtime and preferred walking routes — to keep your pet’s day as normal and stress-free as possible. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a calm, safe environment where they can feel comfortable, whether they’re playful or more laid-back. I make sure the space is pet-proofed and that they always have access to water, cozy spots to rest, and supervised outdoor time in the dog park or in the fenced backyard. I also believe in building trust — both with your pet and with you. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, so you always know how your furry friend is doing!
About: Hi! I’m Allyson — a college student and lifelong dog lover who misses her own pups back home. I have a senior lab and a playful puppy, so I’m experienced with dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m available most days and would love to help families care for their pets, whether that means walks, playtime, or some extra love while you’re away. I know how special our pets are, and I’ll treat yours with the same care and affection I give my own. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, and truly excited to spend time with your furry family members — I’d love to help! 🐾 I'm a college student with a fairly flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to play, bond with, and care for your pets throughout the day. I'm happy to follow any house rules or special requests to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on maintaining their routine—feeding, walks, playtime, and any meds if needed. I treat every pet like family and aim to create a calm, loving environment so they feel right at home.
About: Hi, I have about 6 years of experience in pet care! I have so much free time on my hands and would love to build a relationships with your dog/cat, and also be here to help you out with your pet needs. I’m able to feed, water, play, take them for walks/runs, and simply provide company for your pet. I have a huge heart for animals and truly enjoy being around them. If you’re in need of someone to watch your pet for you, please feel free to reach out as they’ll be loved by me like they’re my own :) I have a lot of extra time on my hands during the week. Watching your pet for you would be the perfect addition to my day and gives me something to do which I enjoy. Your pet is welcome here anytime Pets are allowed on furniture. My cat is an indoor cat. I like to keep Ace inside because of the wildlife outside. I know cats are hunters but I feel as if his safety is 10x better and able to be observed, when he’s inside with me. He is on a great schedule when it comes to food and water and baths are a must! He’s spoiled rotten and has all the toys in the world. He has his own bed but somehow ends up with me every night- he’s very clingy. If I’m watching a bigger dog, Ace will usually sit and watch from a distance and mind his business. If I’m watching a smaller dog, Ace might want to sniff for a little bit then end up wanting to play! If he doesn’t like the dog, he’ll run off and hide or lay at a window by himself where he won’t get bothered. If your dog isn’t well with cats, I AM able to put Ace into another room where they can be separated for the time being :)
“Would definitely use Arlene's service again in the future for my huskies! She was really good at communicating and also very respectful and understanding of my dog's special care needs.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have loved being around them my whole life. For over a year, I’ve been taking care of my coworkers’ dogs and really enjoy getting to know each one’s personality. I also have a dog of my own, and we go on long walks every day, so caring for dogs is already part of my daily routine. I work during the week and offer dog sitting and walks on weekends, when I’m able to give pets my full attention and lots of care. In the home, I keep the environment clean, calm, and safe. Dogs are always supervised, and I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: As a new dog mom I know what it’s like to need reliable trusting help! That’s where I come in. I love to help others give the care they need to their fur babies, while also talking care of mine! I have grown up with dogs all my life. I have 7+ years of professional dog sitting expierence with all types of breeds, ages and sizes. I am familiar with dogs who have separation anxiety as my own suffers the same! I also have handled dogs who need medications, special diets or special exercise routines. I am willing to help in anyway that I can. I can be just as active or lazy as your pup needs me to be. I would love to meet you and your dog! I currently work full time remote in Morgan Hill. I work east coast hours and am off of work between 2-3pm daily. This allows me time to give your dog an afternoon walk before you get home from work! Leaving you more time for yourself. Also, with my remote job, if I am required to stay over during weekdays, I can be with your animals all day! Lunch break walk, anyone? I am looking to sit at other peoples houses only. Whatever method you have for keeping your animals safe and happy is the method I would use.
“Naia is lovely for people and pups alike. She was kind enough to listen to my worries and report back on them after walks in early days. Now that we're having her walk out pup more regularly they have gotten into a rhythm with each other and I can tell my doggie enjoys her outings. Naia is always on time as well. Working with her is an easy experience for such an important job.”
About: I’ve owned a dog ever since I was 3 years old. My wife, daughter and I love dogs, and treat our dog with the utmost love and care. You have my word that I will treat your animal with the same love and care I show for my dog. I also spend a lot of time with walking dogs at the SPCA, so I have been professionally trained and therefore have a plethora of experience with all dog personalities. I work full time in the Army but I am typically free on the weekends or early in the mornings to help out with pet care. I will always follow the rules you have laid out for your pet and ensure that your pet is taken care of to the best of my ability

“Bridget did a great job with Buddy. Buddy loved hanging with his new friends, even her 2 kitty's. I received daily updates with pictures. We would engage Bridget's services again.”
“Citladi took exceptional care of Claire, making her right at home! She touched base and sent me a few photos but did not feel the need to be in constant contact with me which I appreciated. I felt great that Claire was having a fun, safe and comfortable stay!”
“Jill was so amazing with our dog, Meike! We were so nervous to leave her for the first time, but she was in great hands. Jill was amazing at giving her love and making her feel comfortable. She also made sure to play with her daily. We loved the daily updates and pictures. We would recommend Jill and will definitely be contacting her if we need a pet sitter in the future. She’s amazing!”
About: I have had a cat in my life since I was 5 years old. Almost all of them passed away from old age. The oldest was 17 years. For dogs, I was never able to have one growing up. We didn't have the room for one. But I have family members that had dogs and was able to help take care of them. I have dog sat for many years. During that time I would either pop in for a walk or stay with them for a few days. Now that I have a family, it's difficult to house/animal sit at other people's homes, but animals are always welcome in my home. I am currently not working. My days are filled with my 3 and 1/2-year-old daughter. I am showing her how to take care of animals. I take her to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am mostly home or going to walks or going to a park. I have a fenced yard and currently do not have a dog. I do have one cat that is mostly outdoors. I do have a medium size crate if your dog requires one. Animals are allowed on any of the furniture as long as it's not a table or a kitchen counter. I do have a small animal door leading to the backyard. I can close this off if need be.
“Helen was a great caretaker for my dog! She was quick to communicate, shared pictures of her playing with my dog multiple times over the 2 day watch, and I could just tell me dog was happy and well exercised upon pickup. Would definitely book again! Thanks Helen!”
“Carol was an incredible sitter during our trip! We felt so fortunate to leave our beloved and somewhat spoiled mini golden doodle, Augie, in the hands of both Annabelle and Carol. Their warmth and genuine care made all the difference for him. Augie was so happy and well-fed during his stay, which is quite an achievement given his picky eating habits! We would absolutely choose Carol again if given the chance. She was incredibly responsible with our precious pup and even accommodated us by allowing a late pickup. Thank you, Carol, for providing such a loving space for our furry Baby!”
About: I have experience pet sitting my sister’s animals and close friends for 1 year, I’m very active so walks are a must!

I also am home for the weekends so i’ll be there to monitor the play and runs. We live near fort ord and outdoorsy vibes are all around.
“Asta was amazing with my dog! I was looking for someone who could care for Sally while I visited home for the holidays, and she was available and happy to help. They went out for walks together, hung out inside, and socialized with Asta's extremely chill dog. She sent photos and videos to update me on what they were up to each day, and I could always reach her while I was on my trip. I'll definitely have Sally stay over again!”
“Jessie and her family took excellent care of our dog who came home happy and calm🐶 She communicated regularly and sent pics too. We were able to enjoy vacation knowing ore pooch was well taken care of!”
“Samantha was very active with Zoe and kept me informed throughout her entire stay. Her flexibility made my trip stress free and it was nice knowing Zoe was doing good the whole time. I am so grateful to have found her and will use her again in the future.”
“We are so happy to have found Marion to care for our little Coco. She has the most calming presence and we knew she was a good fit immediately upon meeting her. She provides a comfortable home away from home with lots of space for play.”
“What a fresh of breath air to find someone as great as Nicole! This was our 1st short trip away from Kobe since we got him at 8 weeks old. It seemed like he got his own little vacation as well since he was well taken care of. Nicole is great on the updates, her home was clean and well kept. My Puppy Kobe did behave from what Nicole said and did well with others at her home. I’m glad we found Nicole! Thank you bunches Nicole. You truly have a wonderful heart for furry babies ??”

“Mike is the best person in the whole world! I would trust him with my life, he was so fantastic. After having our previously booked Rover sitter cancel on us the day of, we were so lucky to have found Mike! He was amazing with communication, updates, and the care of our dogs. He took them for so many walks, they were so tired by the time we picked them up and slept the whole 3 hours drive back home. We would leave our dogs with him again in a heartbeat!”
“Gabriel was great. We got daily updates on our baby. Our dog came home happy, healthy, and clean. I would definitely trust him with our little guy again. I highly recommend him as a sitter.”
About: I’ve been around dogs all my life. Friends have trusted me to walk, feed and play with them for many years. I recently lost two of my dogs, so my house feels empty and can sure use some tail wagging energy. I’m currently going to school full time, with many of my classes being online, I have plenty of time between classes to give your fur baby love. I have a fenced yard, with plenty of room to run around and play. I love to go on walks twice daily which can last about 30-55 minutes, your fur baby will love them too!
“Brenden is amazing and took such great care of Mulligan! We were able to fully enjoy a wedding celebration knowing our dog was in great hands. Brenden took the dogs hiking and lots of play was had which was perfect to tire Mulligan out ahead of our 6 hour drive home. Highly recommend!!!”
“Can’t express enough how WONDERFUL our experience was with Karina! She went above and beyond for our little 12 week old golden retriever. Sent us updates and pictures. Bathed her! Spoiled her with a lot of play time and her personal favorite, car rides!”
