About: Dog training is included. Kurt B. (CPDT-KSA, APDT) is a certified professional dog trainer, who takes videos of the training he does while your dog is in his care. He follows a forcefree teaching method to teach new behaviors. Step-by-step. Errorless. We are not equipped for non social or dog reactive dogs. Please contact ahead of time to schedule free meet and greet and behavior consultation. I work full time as a professional dog trainer at my home. My life is centered around caring for and teaching dogs and the humans that love and teach them. I have a six foot fence with in a larger 6 ft perimeter fence. We have double gates at every entrance. Dogs can free roam. Dogs eat in crates and get rest periods in crates if need be. Dogs need to be able to handle being in a crate for certain periods. Especially if they don't settle down at night and are destructive. But otherwise they are free range.
“My Teddy Bear enjoyed his stay at Amber's house! He had a ball running around in her big, fenced in backyard and playing with her two girls! Teddy also enjoyed a nature walk! Amber's home is comfortable and she provided a very nice stay for my pup. She even gave me fresh eggs from her chickens! I highly recommend Amber and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Misty and her entire family took amazing care of our dogs for a long vacation out of the country. Leaving my dogs for that long was hard but Misty sent us updates and photos every day - which made our vacation stress-free. We are soooo grateful to have found Misty and we will definitely ask her to care for our dogs again if she will have us!! ☺️”
About: I've cared for dogs and cats most of my life since age 10, including a bonded pair of terriers I adopted and loved until they unfortunately passed in 2022. Since then I've done dog/cat-sitting, dog walking, and dog boarding for a variety of friends and clients, and have always had a wonderful experience. I really appreciate the opportunity to get to know individual pet's personalities and quirks, spend quality time with them, and figure out the sweet spot for pets and scritches. I'm currently going back to school and many of my classes are asynchronous so my schedule is generally pretty flexible and will work around your pet. As a result I am able to spend a lot of quality time with them and meet their unique, individual needs. Also if they want they can help me study to become a therapist! I have a small apartment on a beautiful property near downtown Ojai. I can unfortunately only board small dogs though. In a client's home I do my absolute best to respect your space as well as your pet. Let me know what you need to feel comfortable. I'm receptive to feedback and value open communication!
“We had a wonderful experience booking with Kalia. She was always quick to respond to booking requests, messages, and was very understanding when we had to cancel a different booking due to a change in plans. She sent regular updates and pictures of our boy and I could tell he was having a great visit with her and her two goldens. She put our mind at ease as this was our first time booking through Rover. We had used boarding facilities in the past and our boy would come back overstimulated and often with tummy issues, but it was not the case when he stayed with Kalia. We will definitely book with her again next time!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I had the best experience. Catherine is so caring and she took great care of Hero. I recommend her and will be booking again when I am out of town.”
“Todd and Febronia have a great backyard for the pups they watch to roam, and were glad to take care of our labradoodle for the day while we were out of town. They were communicative and sent pictures throughout the day which was nice.”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Most of Pat's owner cares about how their pet is doing during their pet boarding, and Mark and Yulia were very good communicators, sending us photos almost every day during our dog Dezal 10-day stay with them. Dezal is a 106-pound German Shepherd, a high-energy dog that requires physical activities. It's very difficult to find people who give a lot of love and activities that dogs like ours need. Kids seemed to enjoy our dog, which made us very happy. We highly recommend Mark and Yulia for your loving pets care!! We will contact them again!!!”
“John & Cathrine Are the best ‼️ I left my puppy 5 1/2 months over night and she loved it . John worked with my Sassy and taught her to Sit 💯🏆 iv been truly blessed to have found the Best sitters for my fur baby”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Kay and her husband took great care of our elderly Chihuahua mix, during our 10-day vacation. She consistently sent me photos of our little guy. Thanks a million! We were particularly happy that they did not have other doggie guests because our little guy doesn't play with other dogs.”
About: I have had a Yorkie my whole life and he is now 16 and has many health issues and has gone from fun and playful to slowly moving, providing the best diet and movement is necessary to allow pets of all ages to live their best lives. I have also taken care of all of my family pets from horses to dogs to cats. I have done many side jobs dealing with small chihuahuas to big boxers with big personalities. I ultimately love animals and want to be around them. I currently work full time but only work 5 hours max a day. I like to workout but can incorporate daily walks into this. I have wednesdays and Thursdays off every week. I can easily crate the dog if needed and have the beautiful las Palmas in my backyard for walks, I also have room for toys and for them to roam.
“Deandra and her family took wonderful care of my 5 month old puppy over the holidays. Charlie stayed with Deandra for 10 days and was given so much care and attention. She loved playing with their dog in the front yard, which was great socialization and tuckered Charlie out! Deandra sent daily updates which made me feel comforted to leave her for an extended timeframe. I highly recommend Deandra and plan to book her again!”

About: Need someone to care for your fur baby? I’m your person! Certified in giving love, belly rubs, and compliments like “who’s the best dog ever?” (spoiler alert, it’s yours). I’ve spent over eight years working hands-on with animals, from volunteering at humane societies and rescues to caring for pets in boarding, daycare, and grooming. I may be a retired groomer, but my soft spot for clean paws and wagging tails is forever. Whether your pup is shy, sassy, or a total goofball, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely adored. Animals have always been my world, and I truly believe nothing beats that tail-wagging, pure-love greeting when you walk through the door. I’ll treat your pets like family, the kind of family that gets spoiled and praised all day long. Pet care fits into my day the same way coffee does… it’s a must! I love starting and ending my days with wagging tails, happy paws, and a few goofy zoomies. My schedule’s flexible, so I plan everything around walks, meals, cuddles, and playtime. Basically, if your pet’s happy, my day’s already a win. Keeping your pets happy and safe is my full-time mission. I follow all your instructions like a pro, from meals to walks to any special care your furry friends need. I bring plenty of cuddles, belly rubs, and unsolicited affirmations so your pets feel loved, spoiled, and totally in charge while you’re away. Basically, I make sure they have the best day ever, every day.
About: I have many years of experience as a pet-sitter for friends and neighbors and have even worked as a veterinary assistant. I have experience caring for not only dogs and cats, but also rodents, reptiles, amphibians, birds and some livestock animals including goats and pigs. I have cared for senior animals and pets with medical conditions. I'm working a remote part time job as a 3D artist, so my schedule is very flexible. I am even able to bring my work with me as long as your home has internet, so I can keep a close eye on your fur, feather or scale babies! Aside from being a calm and loving companion for your pets, I am also comfortable with administering oral medications, specialized feeding requirements (calcium dusting insects, feeding rodents to snakes, etc) basic grooming requirements, spot cleaning enclosures and general exercise needs.

“Our dog is a typical German Shepherd, super attached and a good amount of anxiety. So we were definitely concerned about leaving her for 10 days. With Ashley, we learned quickly we had nothing to worry about. They bonded right away and the happy dog photos she sent along during our trip are some of the best photos we have of her. Ashley was incredibly caring and kept our pup on a consistent daily schedule. I highly recommend Ashley for caring for your pets.”

About: Lifetime of love and experience taking care of animals. From guinea pigs, birds and large tortoises to 100 lb dogs and many animals in between.

“Kalia was easy to work with, great communication from the start. Provided me with updates and photos of Champ during his stay. I highly recommend Kalia if you’re in town and need someone to look after your pet!”
“Our girls seemed like they had a really fun day. We were nervous because we had never used rover before, but Brooke was extremely friendly and made the whole process feel like a breeze.”

“Kay was a fantastic sitter. She was very kind and welcoming. We felt very confident in leaving our dog in her care. She sent adorable photos and her communication throughout the sit was great. We picked up a very happy dog who didn’t want to leave Kay. Would 100% use Kay again.”
“Although Macho was only with Mariana and family for six hours, they kept him occupied and he wasn't distressed from being away from his Mama. Definitely recommend Mariana and we'll be certain to avail ourselves of her services again ourselves. Macho's Dad”
“Ellen was great. She took great care of our pup and was very easy going. She even had some advice for activities in town that were really great. We will definitely see her again next time we are in town.”
“Melissa was kind and welcoming. I have a senior dog who is going blind and deaf. Who also gets separation anxiety, he was a service dog for 17 years, now retired. He’s lost as how to be a regular dog at this age, so he can be needy. She did great with him.”
“Words cannot express how wonderful Richard and Mystique are and the loving care they provide for our high energy puppy. They treat him like family, and he gives them hugs and kisses during daycare drop off. They also take the time to give our puppy leash training on walks. Absolutely recommend Richard and Mystique.”

“Jessica was amazing. We needed a place to leave our dog for the day and it was perfect. She responds immediately to texts and sends lots of photo and video updates. Our little dog was so tired after a fun day with Jessica and her family. 100% would book with Jessica if we are in town again.”
“Deandra was amazing with our puppy Kiwi! She was quick to respond, offered a meet and greet, have updates throughout the day and her dog Raja was really sweet and gentle with my high energy pup as well. Highly recommend!!”
“Kelsey is my #1 go-to dog sitter. My clingy heeler is always so excited to visit her. He can smell her neighborhood from out of the window and he starts barking on our way down the street to her house. She is understanding, flexible, kind, and she genuinely loves dogs. She also understands heelers and herding breeds, which is a huge plus in my book. 100000% recommend her. I'm a paranoid dog owner and I'm very selective about all of the choices I make for him. I'm always at ease knowing he is with her.”

About: Since I was 12 I would pet sit for neighbors and family friends in my area. I always loved being around dogs since I was a toddler and still continue to provide quality care for my clients. I also raised my own pup fully on my own, constantly catering to different dietary needs and walking schedules based on his age. Although he just recently passed I understand the extra attention that is necessary for dogs who are seniors or have certain traits/needs and of course will be able to properly care for any 4 legged friend you have in your family. I am a UC Berkeley student home for the summer fully free to match any of my clients schedules, I also work weekends and holidays . Being 21 I have tons of experience with pet sitting and baby sitting. I myself raised my own furball for 16 years and understand the needs and attention that is necessary for those who are in their senior years. I also have catered to any dietary needs necessary for those with particular dietary preferences. And of course provide a space filled with unlimited love and attention.
About: I love all critters, large and small. I have two large dogs which I have both trained. They are incredibly well behaved, but I know how to give them space to be rambunctious and playful. It’s so important for pets to have a safe space to be themselves and show their beautiful, unique personalities. I know how to work with senior and leash-aggressive dogs. Kitties are wonderful with minds of their own. I give them attention when they want it, but distance if not. They are cats after all! I can take care of fish too, as I have a tank of them in addition to my dogs. My schedule is extremely flexible! I walk my dogs in the morning, but I can adjust my walk time as needed. For overnights, my husband will take care of our fur babies. I start off with an introduction to you and your pet. Treats are a great way to start off on the right paw! I ensure your pet feels safe and gets to know me. I am caring and loving, and I also know how to give space to your furry one when they need it.

About: Animals are my passion. I cared for my beloved Parson Russell Terrier, Milo, from 2000 to 2015, and he’s the reason I fell in love with caring for all animals. That love led me to volunteer at the Berkeley Humane Society as a cat companion in 2014, and later at the Santa Cruz SPCA as a dog walker from 2024 to 2025. I’ve also transported rescued animals—most memorably a German Shepherd from NYC to his forever home in Florida—and have cared for friends’ and family’s pets for many years. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I’m fully committed to providing exceptional, reliable, and compassionate care for yours. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay, your pet will be treated like family. I follow your pet’s established routine—feeding, walking, medication, and comfort—and during extended stays, I’m happy to water plants, collect mail, and keep your home tidy. My mission is simple: to care for your pets with genuine love, respect, and dependability. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available throughout the week for you and your pet. My background in customer service has taught me the importance of reliability, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I provide reliable, compassionate care that keeps your pet comfortable and secure in their own home. I follow their regular routine, prioritize safety, and care for them with the same attention and love I would give my own pets.
About: I've been a pet guardian all of my (long-ish) life and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I'm currently not working full time, so I have time to help you look after your animals. My dogs (springer spaniels) lived very long and happy lives, and now I have a solo cat at home. I am available to visit your animals in your home, take them for walks, clean up after them and play with them. I can't have overnights at the moment due to my own pet.

A lot of walkers would have given up!! I would definitely recommend Mellisa especially if you have a dog that’s guarded toward strangers!”

About: Dog training is included. Kurt B. (CPDT-KSA, APDT) is a certified professional dog trainer, who takes videos of the training he does while your dog is in his care. He follows a forcefree teaching method to teach new behaviors. Step-by-step. Errorless. We are not equipped for non social or dog reactive dogs. Please contact ahead of time to schedule free meet and greet and behavior consultation. I work full time as a professional dog trainer at my home. My life is centered around caring for and teaching dogs and the humans that love and teach them. I have a six foot fence with in a larger 6 ft perimeter fence. We have double gates at every entrance. Dogs can free roam. Dogs eat in crates and get rest periods in crates if need be. Dogs need to be able to handle being in a crate for certain periods. Especially if they don't settle down at night and are destructive. But otherwise they are free range.
“My Teddy Bear enjoyed his stay at Amber's house! He had a ball running around in her big, fenced in backyard and playing with her two girls! Teddy also enjoyed a nature walk! Amber's home is comfortable and she provided a very nice stay for my pup. She even gave me fresh eggs from her chickens! I highly recommend Amber and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Misty and her entire family took amazing care of our dogs for a long vacation out of the country. Leaving my dogs for that long was hard but Misty sent us updates and photos every day - which made our vacation stress-free. We are soooo grateful to have found Misty and we will definitely ask her to care for our dogs again if she will have us!! ☺️”
“We had a wonderful experience booking with Kalia. She was always quick to respond to booking requests, messages, and was very understanding when we had to cancel a different booking due to a change in plans. She sent regular updates and pictures of our boy and I could tell he was having a great visit with her and her two goldens. She put our mind at ease as this was our first time booking through Rover. We had used boarding facilities in the past and our boy would come back overstimulated and often with tummy issues, but it was not the case when he stayed with Kalia. We will definitely book with her again next time!”
“Todd and Febronia have a great backyard for the pups they watch to roam, and were glad to take care of our labradoodle for the day while we were out of town. They were communicative and sent pictures throughout the day which was nice.”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Most of Pat's owner cares about how their pet is doing during their pet boarding, and Mark and Yulia were very good communicators, sending us photos almost every day during our dog Dezal 10-day stay with them. Dezal is a 106-pound German Shepherd, a high-energy dog that requires physical activities. It's very difficult to find people who give a lot of love and activities that dogs like ours need. Kids seemed to enjoy our dog, which made us very happy. We highly recommend Mark and Yulia for your loving pets care!! We will contact them again!!!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Deandra and her family took wonderful care of my 5 month old puppy over the holidays. Charlie stayed with Deandra for 10 days and was given so much care and attention. She loved playing with their dog in the front yard, which was great socialization and tuckered Charlie out! Deandra sent daily updates which made me feel comforted to leave her for an extended timeframe. I highly recommend Deandra and plan to book her again!”
“Outstanding service. Claudia sent me tons of photos everday and it made me feel not terrible about leaving my baby behind because it looked like she was having so much fun. Thanks again.”
“We left out dog for 1 week and based on the pictures and videos, he had a blast. Stefanie was easy to communicate with, and our request was answered very quickly. She took great care of our dog and we will definitely use her again. Thanks Stefanie.”
“I give Sara 10 stars. Read the other positive reviews. They are all true. Kiki-Sweet Girl has special needs. Sara keeps her feeling so happy and feeling safe. We did a sample one-night boarding and are continuing with weekly recurring daycare and with multiple night boarding when we travel. Kiki loves Sara so much. Kiki also loves Sara's pup, Casper. No only does Sara do magic with communications with dogs and people, but she has exceptional skills in getting doggies to listen to her and to try their best for her. You will not be disappointed if you get Sara to be one of your dog's special people.”
“Taryn has a great spot! Beautiful backyard and a comfortable home for pets. The dogs had a great time and were loved on the whole weekend. Taryn took the dogs on last minute, very appreciative of the time and energy spent to take good care of our pets.”
“Alexandra and Billy were great! My dogs enjoyed meeting them before their boarding date. They were most accommodating, friendly, and I loved that they kept sending pictures and videos! They even took them to a holiday dinner add their friend's house with lots of other dogs to play with!”
“Tiantian sent us a lot of photos and updates. Our dog is high-energy, but she managed to keep her on an even keel and when we picked our dog up she was happy and was in high spirits.”
“Steph was great! She kept us updated on how Finley was doing, and provided pictures of their walks and activities. I think Finley really enjoyed his time with Steph & Willow. We hope to use her again in the future.”
“Marc took excellent care of our dog. We had a last minute cancellation with a different dog sitter but Marc came to our rescue. His communication was great and overall we are happy customers. 2 paws up!”
“Shannon was great and took really great care of Stormy! She gave us daily updates with a pick of our happy pup. Stormy got to go on walks everyday and even got to accompany Shannon on a couple outings! She has a great time! Thank you, Shannon!!!”
