“Lorelle was super responsive and took great care of our dogs. We got daily pictures of them having fun and knew they were in great hands while we were away. Thanks again!”
“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”

“We can't recommend Kaitlyn enough! She took amazing care of our 9-year-old Ragdoll, who has special needs, and went above and beyond in every way. Not only did she ensure he was well-fed, comfortable, and given his medication on time, but she also showered him with love and attention, keeping him happy while we were away. Our cat had a litter box accident, and without hesitation, Kaitlyn gave him a bath and made sure he was clean, comfortable, and stress-free again—something not every cat sitter would be willing to do! On top of that, she took it upon herself to look after our home, making sure everything was in order. We returned to a clean, well-cared-for space and, most importantly, a content and relaxed cat!

About: I have taken care of cats throughout the years. I appreciate that cats have unique personalities and love to snuggle and spoil them. I believe all animals should be stress free, especially when their owners aren’t around. I try very hard to make sure they are happy and safe while in my care
“We are so fortunate to have found Katherine. I feel completely comfortable leaving our cats in her care while we’re away. She is an excellent communicator, attentive, and incredibly caring with our pets. Katherine is a true professional—she knows how to administer medication to both of our cats and handles everything with calm confidence. Since we recently added a new cat to our family, tensions have been high with our older cat, who hasn’t been very welcoming. Katherine has been understanding, patient, and sensitive to their individual needs, which has been a huge relief. She goes above and beyond every time. We really like her and feel lucky to have her caring for our furry family members. We trust her completely and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for dependable, compassionate pet care.”

He is a very kind, genuine guy who loves dogs and as soon as we met him, we knew Akio would be in good hands.

My dog Jack can be a bit stubborn and grumpy (he is a terrier), but Kayla, with the help of a few treats, won him over. She is dependable, friendly and loves dogs. I was nervous, trying to find a new dog walker. You just hope you pick the right person. Kayla was the right pick. Will definitely use her services again.”
“BEST Dog Walker I’ve ever worked with- hands (paws) down! Ilana is organized and dependable. She got my little dog to trust and love her which in itself is a miracle.

She’s caring, smart and also takes great pictures. We all love her and will continue to use her.”

About: 🐾 About My Pet Care 🐾 I’ve been working with pets for over 20 years!🐶❤️ What started as dog walking for my neighbors has grown into a loving in-home daycare and pet-care service. 🐾 Puppies are my specialty! I have extensive experience caring for dogs under 2 years old, and for the past 2 years I’ve especially enjoyed working with puppies as young as 8–12 weeks old. I understand how important it is for young pups to have a safe, fun, and nurturing environment while they learn and grow. 🥰 🌿 Our guests love playing and getting their energy out in our spacious backyard with REAL grass!

About: I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds and personalities for many years. Friends, neighbors and family trust me to walk, feed and care for their pets. I’m patient, attentive and always make sure pets feel safe, loved and comfortable. I currently have a break in the morning, which allows me to properly care for and walk your pet. I am attentive, reliable, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully and keep pets in a safe, clean, and calm environment. I make sure they are fed on time, exercised, supervised, and treated with patience, care, and respect at all times.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have years of experience caring for them through dog sitting, house sitting, and pet sitting. I personally raised and trained one of my dogs from puppyhood—teaching crate training, potty training, and fun tricks—so I understand the patience and consistency pets need. I’m a reliable, respectful sitter who treats every home and pet as if they were my own, making sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m quite flexible with my schedule, and this role is currently my main work priority. Because of that, I’m able to plan my days around each pet’s needs and routine. My goal is always to provide consistent care, attention, and genuine love to every pet I care for. At my home, your pup will enjoy a safe, fenced yard and the company of my two friendly dogs for plenty of playtime and socialization. I can also care for pets in your home if that’s what makes them most comfortable. Whether it’s walks, boarding, overnight stays, or crate care, I’m happy to help with whatever your dog needs—no task is too small or too big. My goal is always to make your pet feel loved, secure, and right at home!
“Gayl was very friendly, very easy to work with. She showed up on time and was very communicative in letting us know what had transpired after each walk or visit. I would recommend Gayl to take care of your furry family member.”
About: I started bringing rescue animals home at 10 years old which led me to my first job working with dogs, which led to a lifelong pursuit of working with animals. Your dog will be treated like my own and I will care for your pets to your specific instructions. I just moved back to California from Texas and work part time in an office and use the rest of my time to take the best care of your fur baby in whatever way necessary. Safety is of the upmost importance and I will take whatever steps necessary to ensure a safe, yet fun environment for your pup. I have plenty of experience with all types of dogs and am confident I can handle whatever your pup needs.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with German Shepherds, a Cocker Spaniel, and a mixed-breed dog. Later, when I started my own family, we welcomed Fiera, our Labrador Retriever. She grew up alongside my children—they were like siblings and partners in crime. If you’ve ever had a Lab, you know exactly what I mean. 😁 When Fiera was about five years old, Glitch, our little Shihpoo, joined the family. Fiera crossed the Rainbow Bridge at 13, and we still miss her every day. 💗 Making your pup feel safe and cared for is my priority. If your dog isn’t acting like themselves, isn’t eating normally, or just seems “off,” I’ll notice and I’ll let you know. I’m comfortable following detailed instructions, whether it’s feeding routines, walks, medications, or special care. I have experience giving oral medications, eye and ear medications, topical treatments, and subcutaneous injections when prescribed by a veterinarian. When I’m caring for your dog, I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages. While you’re away, I’m also happy to bring in mail and packages, water indoor or outdoor plants, rotate lights if requested, and help keep your home looking lived-in. Just let me know what you need, and I’ll do my best to help. 🐾 Health & Safety For the health and safety of all pets in my home, all dogs staying with me must be current on veterinarian-recommended vaccinations and on an active flea and tick prevention program. I understand that some dogs may be unable to receive certain vaccines or use standard flea/tick preventatives for medical reasons. If your dog has a documented medical restriction, please let me know before booking so we can discuss your veterinarian’s recommendations and determine whether I can safely accommodate your pet. All boarding guests must arrive flea- and tick-free. If fleas or ticks are discovered during your dog’s stay, I will contact you before administering any treatment. The pet parent will be responsible for the cost of any approved treatment, as well as a $100 flea cleaning fee to cover the additional cleaning and sanitizing required in my home. Any extraordinary professional pest-control expenses resulting from an active infestation may also be the pet parent’s responsibility. Please also let me know in advance about any medical conditions, medication sensitivities, vaccine reactions, allergies, or other important health information. ❤️ I’m currently completing professional training from home, so I spend most of my day at home. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of companionship for the pets in my care. Our home is shared with our small dog, Glitch, and our indoor cat, Vinnie. Both are important members of our family. Glitch enjoys having canine visitors, and he has always done well with dogs in our home. To keep everyone safe and comfortable, I carefully introduce dogs and only accept dogs that are friendly with cats. We have a fully fenced yard. I’m happy to accommodate your dog’s normal routine, including using a crate if they’re already crate trained and comfortable with it.

Since I work from home and for myself, my work schedule is very flexible. I enjoy helping others care for their four legged kids, since I remember never having enough time when I was younger. Our fur kids are very used to new siblings coming in the home. We have been fostering for PACT FOR ANIMALS for years. They provide foster homes for military personnel.

Respect everyone how they should be treated with love and compassion. I am loyal I work full time in the veterinary field but need some extra pay to help pay for childcare have experience with all dogs and cats Since i have a dog that’s picky with other dogs i would prefer to sit in your home unless my dog was comfortable with it she has stayed before at my parents house with their dogs I have an open work schedule, therefore daily visits and weekend visits are what I offer! I can do overnight visits if necessary, if your animal requires someone to stay at night. I currently can’t take pets in my own home. I can stay overnight in your home if needed. This will include play time and giving them all the extra love while you are away! Walk, feed, sleep repeat .she loves walks and sniffing everything.

“My wife and I booked with Banafshe for a long weekend trip, after our go-to dog sitter was unavailable. We are happy we did. Before the sit, Banafshe was courteous and timely in replying to our handful of messages with questions. She was gracious enough to allow us to bring Huxley over for a quick meetup with her and her lovely family), before the scheduled stay. Banafshe followed up with us the day of to confirm what time we would be dropping Huxley off. Unexpectedly, our pup had a tooth pulled prior to the boarding, and Banafshe was very helpful in ensuring Huxley received his medication (in his food). Throughout the time of the boarding she provided thoughtful updates and photos and was very responsive. She checked in with us to confirm when we would be picking up Huxley and made sure his items we left with her, were in his bag. 10/10. We would trust her and her family with our furbaby again and I highly recommend. 🥰”
“We had a really nice experience with Saeedhe taking care of Winter. She truly enjoys what she does and genuinely loves dogs, Winter was happy and we would definitely love for her to take care of him again in the future!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received from this wonderful couple. They truly went above and beyond—taking him on long walks every day and treating him like one of their own. Our pup came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well loved. They also shared lots of photos throughout, which gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, attentive, and caring dog sitters!”
“Chalie enjoyed his staycation with the Thu and family. We received good communication and pictures throughout his stay. They were even flexible as we ran a bit late on pickup.”
“Milo stayed with Wen for two nights and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. She was incredibly flexible, kept me updated with frequent photos and messages, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Milo came home happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. I also loved that she has two children, which gave Milo a wonderful opportunity to socialize in a family environment. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and trustworthy dog sitter. Will definitely book again! 🐶❤️”
“We are so glad that Radhika was able to take care of Willow while we were out of town! She kept us updated with Willow’s behavior and sent lots of pictures and videos. We would love for Radhika to watch Willow again!!”
“Emely was great! She even picked up our pup for us and brought him to her house. She was in very frequent communication with updates and photos the whole time! Our minds were at ease about our fur baby the whole time we were traveling! Thank you Emely! See you next time :)”
“This was the best experience for us and our Golden. We were sent pics and videos continuously. Your pup will be loved and catered to as much as you do if not more. We will def use this family again. I”
“This was our first time leaving our Carly with anyone other than family and the first time ever leaving her this long (8 nights!). It is very clear that Sondra and Kirk are huge animal lovers and we felt comfortable leaving our "baby" in their care. Sondra was very communicative and Carly came home happy and exhausted :)”
“Our pup was safe, happy and well cared for. It was like he was on vacation too! We received plenty of photos and updates and they loved him like he was their own dog. Will definitely book with them again”
“I felt completely at ease leaving Maaska for her overnight stay—I truly didn’t have to worry at all because I knew she was in such good hands. I’m so grateful for the care she received. She got to enjoy being in a home with a yard and even play with other dogs, which made the experience extra special. Honestly, it felt like the best sleepover of her life! I would absolutely leave her again and highly recommend her care.”
“Anu has checked in on my dog multiple times to feed him and take him on walks. She is always very detailed in her updates on how he is doing and he loves her visits! I had a last minute change and needed someone to watch my dog for two nights. She didn’t hesitate to take him into her home and took such great care of him. She sent updates and photos of long walks they went on and how he was getting along. My dog can be very anxious in certain situations, but he was so comfortable with her and at her home! Will definitely be booking again.”
“We left our two pup's with Chris for three weeks. His intake process was very through so he really understood our dogs and our expectation's/concerns. Throughout our time away Chris updated us with comments, photos and videos. We were comfortable the dogs were safe and being very well taken care of. Chris is really into dogs. He is very knowledgeable about their needs and behavioral issues. His two dogs are very friendly and well behaved so our pets and yours enjoy being part of a pack while being away from you. Fred Ehlers”
About: I’ve always been around animals and genuinely love them, especially Golden Retrievers. My friends and family trust me with their dogs because I actually enjoy spending time with them. I hang out with them, play with them, take them on walks, and make sure they get plenty of attention. I don’t personally have a dog at the moment because I travel from time to time, but dogs have always been a big part of my life. My wife has owned two dogs, and I’ve personally had cats, so I’m very comfortable around animals and caring for them. I’m patient, calm, and good at building trust, especially with pets who may need a little time to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I will personally be the one providing all care for any pets booked through my Rover profile. I’m available mornings and evenings for dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and boarding. I enjoy spending real time with the pets I care for, whether that means going on walks, playing, hanging out, or just keeping them company. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and messages so you know how they’re doing. Since I live in an apartment, the best fit would be a dog who is house trained, calm indoors, and comfortable using either the elevator or stairs. They should also be able to settle without excessive barking. I’m happy to spend plenty of time with them, play, go on walks, and keep them company. I just ask that they don’t have aggressive behavior, biting, frequent accidents, or destructive habits. A quick meet-and-greet beforehand would be great so we can make sure everyone feels comfortable and it’s a good fit.
“Jordana took great care of our 2 fury family members for 6 days while we went on vacation. She was always keeping us updated with pictures and comments. Jordana and her family made Enzo and Niko feel home. Jordana is very friendly and kind, I highly recommend her to take care of your fury friends. Jordana thank you again for taking such good care of Enzo and Niko!”
