About: For us, this isn’t just dog sitting it’s a second home. We don’t treat dogs like bookings or numbers. Every dog that stays with us becomes part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. We provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable, especially those who may be shy or adjusting to a new place. We’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for the past three years, with stays ranging from one week to as long as two months. We’re happy to provide recommendations if needed. We also have a friendly 5-year-old mini Goldendoodle mix at home, so your dog will always have a companion to play with and feel at ease. We keep owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you’ll always have peace of mind while you’re away. What truly sets us apart is the consistency and genuine care. We treat every dog like our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine, as we’re home most of the time and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. We plan our schedule around their needs, including regular potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and rest. Our whole family is involved in caring for the dogs. We have a 24-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter, so there’s almost always someone at home to provide attention, supervision, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and we make sure they feel included in our day-to-day activities. Whether it’s relaxing indoors, supervised outdoor time, or just being nearby, they’re always cared for and watched over. On a weekly basis, we keep things consistent so dogs can settle into a routine quickly, which helps them feel comfortable and secure during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. In our home, we provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. We primarily care for small to medium-sized dogs, allowing us to maintain a calm, safe, and more personalized setting. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so we can care for them accordingly. We supervise dogs closely throughout the day and never leave them unattended for long periods. Our home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy companionship, consistency, and a quieter environment. We’re experienced with longer stays, ranging from one week to as long as two months, and we help dogs settle in comfortably as if they’re part of the family. We’re also comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering time-sensitive medication, including an 11-year-old Maltese we regularly care for who requires medication twice daily. We follow all feeding instructions carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and maintain a consistent schedule for potty breaks, playtime, and rest. If needed, we can separate dogs to keep everyone safe and stress-free. Communication is very important to us, so we provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Above all, we offer a true home environment with consistent, attentive care—we treat every dog like our own.
“Natalie was an absolutely amazing host, our dog had a wonderful time with her two friendly dogs and her dog-loving boyfriend. She has a very spacious house in a convenient location with a dedicated room for dogs. She was really nice to quickly accept taking care of our dog for an extra day due to an emergency as well. Will definitely ask her to dog sit again & to recommend to others.”
“Fantastic dog sitters! Anna Dee & Julio were wonderful with our pup while we were out of town. They are very caring and went above and beyond to provide him with lots of walks and snuggles. We received photos and updates throughout his stay. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a loving sitter!”
“Cookie spent 10 days at Dodi's house and it seems that he loved it ! Dodi has a nice and friendly little dog and they got along well. Dodi sent us photos of Cookie everyday. She is a very sweet person and will treat your dog as hers. Thanks Dodi for taking such good care of Cookie”
“Harlan was great! His energy was perfect for my Ruby. Very calm, collected, kind personality. Ruby wasn't at all anxious when I dropped her off or picking her up. They had lots of 1 on 1 time during walks in his quiet, peaceful community and relaxing atspacious home. He followed all my feeding/walking requests, sent me pictures regularly, and responded to messages promptly. I wish he lived closer, but his services were worth the gas! I will be sure to ask if he can move closer for next time lol. Will 100% absolutely be booking him in the future! Thank you, Harlan!”
“Gabriel and Mari were so great taking care of my pup! He really had a great time with them and they were amazing to be flexible with us when travels plans changed a little bit!”
“Anna was amazing! She kept us updated everyday with photos of our dog, and took him on lots of walks. She and her boyfriend gave our boy Angel so much love and attention he didn’t want to leave!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Brittany has been amazing with my pup who has some separation anxiety. He gets excited when he realizes where we are headed, he practically busts the door down to get in!”
“Would 100% rebook with Siobhan! Took incredible care of my pug, was super quick to respond and sent me updates so I didn’t worry once. Would give 10 stars if it let me!”
“Our little pup did really well with Elaine & Martin. We were worried because our dog is kind of peculiar, but they were great with her! They sent photos so we could see how comfortable she was, and this allowed us to enjoy our trip and not worry. We have already booked another stay with them! They are great!”
“Happy to have had such wonderful, understanding true dog people for first vacation away for a weekend! He’s a timid sensitive boy, he looked relaxed and happy on all the photos and updates we received daily! We’re very thankful for him being so welcomed into their home! 🐶🫶🏼🐾💕”
“I can’t speak highly enough about David! He’s extremely caring, reliable, attentive, professional, and trustworthy. I have a lab puppy named Gracie, and David regularly walks her during the week while I’m at work and takes care of her when I’m traveling. I never have to worry about Gracie when she’s with David, which is invaluable. David is easy to coordinate with, and he shares lots of photos and updates along the way. I’m so thankful for his wonderful care of Gracie, and I highly recommend his service!”
“This was our second time boarding with Chris, and once again, he exceeded expectation…this time for two weeks! We couldn’t be happier with the attention our Frenchie received while staying with him. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he felt completely at ease and right at home. He didn’t even say goodbye before running right inside. Chris maintained our pup’s daily routine…from daily walks and playing soccer at the park, to evening wrestling matches. The regular updates and pics were awesome! We are 100% committed to boarding with Chris going forward and can’t recommend him enough to fellow pet parents looking for someone who treats your dog like family.”
“Kiya is really nice and great and took amazing care of our golden retriever teddy. He kept me updated through the stay and sent me pictures and videos all the time. Teddy is very picky and Kiya really took his time to help him out which was really great. Would recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”
“Hannah and her family were so caring for my little shy Shihtzu who usually has separation anxiety. They extended such good care and I felt very comforted to know he was in such hands. I will for sure use them again on my trips. I loved the way Hannah kept me in the loop by sending frequent photos.”

“Victoria did a great job taking care of our two cats, including our energetic 5 month old kitten who requires a lot of attention and play time. Our other cat is very shy, and Victoria was able to get her to come out and receive some TLC too. We felt very comfortable while we were on vacation knowing our kitties were being well taken care of!”
About: In many of the activities that I’m involved in, such as color guard (marching band) and choir, punctuality and reliability are a necessity, and I will carry this over to my pet sitting responsibilities. In regards to my experience with cats, I myself grew up with a cat that required extra care and attention, so I can assure that the same care will be shown with your pet.
“Sofia was so great! She took really great care of my cat Carl, who needs medicine and special food in the mornings. I got lots of photos of Carl while I was gone, and she even took my packages in and put my trash cans away. I would definitely recommend Sofia!! 💛”
About: I have taken care of cats since I was young and I've had two of my own. My son and his wife have five! I love all animals. During their stay or visits with me, all cats under my care will be fed, have a clean litter box, will be played with (according to their wants or needs), and be showered with affection, if the cat so desires, if not they can ignore me the whole time. It's completely up to them how much or how little they want to interact with me. If you'd like, I can send you pictures and/or videos throughout the stay too.
About: I'm a sensitive, caring responsible individual who loves to play with dogs and with whom dogs love to play. I've worked at the Glendale, CA Humane Society Shelter walking dogs and really enjoyed the experience. I've owned dogs for a good part of my life. However, I recently had to put Taffy, my last dog, to sleep. She was 16 and not doing well. It was heart wrenching and I thought perhaps that rather getting another, I could give the love I have for dogs to others, without having the ultimate burden of ownership. I live in Agoura Hills, CA. There lots of room for dogs to walk and play, lots of trees and grass for dogs to sniff and explore. There are also lots of other dogs in the community and opportunities for dogs to socialize, if the owners and the dogs want. I have a fenced yard and I work from home. I have a flexible schedule. Consequently, I can adapt my schedule to your dog's schedule. I have a fenced yard and I have no other dogs. Even though the house is on two levels, it's easy for dogs to navigate.
“Such a great experience. I knew reading the bio I wanted to book Belle. She was prompt, efficient, and communication was seamless from start to finish. Everything felt easy and handled with care. I really appreciated how smooth the whole process was and my dogs were happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book again.”
About: I've owned and cared for cats my whole life. I am very experienced with animals of all species, sizes, and personalities. I know cats can have quite the attitude and they must be provided with daily enrichment to keep their energy at bay. I worked at an animal rescue as staff in the medical clinic, as well as the Lifesaving and Care Manager, so I am very experienced with overseeing animal health, feeding, medicating, giving shots and vaccines, and ensuring the best possible care for each and every pet in my care!
“Courtney was absolutely amazing. I'm a crazy dog mom & hadn't ever left my girl. She's a therapy dog & my medical service dog & she goes everywhere with me but we were going to an airshow & I was worried about her ears so I didn't want to take her. We were camping in Malibu & it was difficult to find someone because everyone was a good distance from here but Courtney was agreeable to come to our RV park. She hadn't been here before & was so great at following directions. My dog loved her, I could see from the photos how happy she was. Courtney walked her & played with her. I couldn't recommend her more highly She kept me updated, communicated well, was on time, and most importantly made my pup so happy. She sent me updates for both visits and a lot of really cute pictures. I'm a sitter here on Rover as well and am very picky but if you're looking for a great dog walker/sitter, look no further...Courtney is absolutely FANTASTIC! I can highly recommend her and I will definitely book with her again in the future when we're in the area.”
“Outstanding and reliable, with excellent communication! We have several pets (cat, tortoise, dragon, dogs, fish) and it’s good to know that we can count on Oli to perform our complicated pet routine when we’re away. Thanks!”
About: I truly love all pets and animals, especially cats, and I’m excited to continue growing my experience as a sitter. I have cared for several cats by providing feeding, playtime, companionship, and attentive check-ins to keep them comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I am reliable, gentle, and focused on creating a safe, calm environment where each cat feels secure and cared for. I look forward to building more experience while giving your pets the same love and attention I would give my own.
“Avery is an amazing pet sitter! This is our first time using her and we will absolutely reach out in the future. Our cats loved her! She is friendly, professional and great with animals. It was such a relief to have such an incredible pet sitter looking after our babies while we were away. Plus she got some incredible pics of our little snugglebug to tied us over till we could get home and love them us ourselves.”
About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I love animals probably more then people at times and I will love your fur babies as if they were my own and take great care of them! I am wide open with availability during the day in case your pets need someone with them for most of the day or if they are fine being alone for certain amount of time. Currently not working full time . I live in an apartment so I won’t be offering to take in any pets as theirs a limit of how many can be staying here. At the moment.
“This was our second time using Ashleigh to take care of our two cats. We very much appreciated her care and attention to the boys. Ashleigh left the house in great condition.”
“Margaret took excellent care of our baby while we were away. She’s such an animal lover and took the time to really shower our kitten with love and affection and lots of playtime in addition to the basic needs of our cat. She took the time to develop a friendship with Skye, which made both us and our cat very happy. Margaret is so responsive with loads of pictures so you can see how your furbaby is doing. She really went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be any happier with how well our cat was taken care of. It certainly made us feel more comfortable with being away. We will have Margaret back to watch Skye any time!”
“Kendall is always so caring and considerate with my cat June! It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave her behind, but Kendall always leaves photos & provides updates on how she’s doing - it puts me at ease to know she’s in the care of such a great sitter :)”

About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your beloved fur babies! I spent the past three years working full time at an animal sanctuary where I cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, and sheep. My passion is riding horses and hiking with dogs. I've owned & loved 4 of my own horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats and several smaller animals in my life. I am an avid hiker and love being outside on my next adventure - hopefully with your pooch next! It's a true pleasure to enjoy the company of your beloved dog, horse, cat or other beloved family member. I'm a lucky mommy of two daughters ages 11 & 9 years who love animals as much as I do. They often join me in the animal care. I can't wait to help spoil your babies! My schedule is currently fairly open and flexible. I am especially available early in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening. Sat and especially Sunday are usually totally open for me. I would prefer to go to other people's homes to care for there pets however I could take one or possibly two smaller dogs in my own home. I do not have a yard but I go on long walks and have trails all around me.
“Anna and Steven were great for doggie day care! They were able to meet with us prior to our scheduled day for a meet and greet. Our fur baby Gryffin was very excited to run into their house the next morning and start his day care. He came home happy and content. I will definitely use Anna and Steven again!”

She’s incredibly friendly, easy to communicate with, and very responsive. I could tell Toby had a great time. I would definitely trust and recommend April!”
“Mando was very flexible as we were scheduling. As I have a giant breed puppy, it takes someone strong (physically and mentally) and he was able to handle my giant baby adeptly. He posted lots of photos as well.”
“Would absolutely recommend David and will be a continuing client. He took great care of my furry little guy and kept me updated with pictures and videos Necio also looked very comfortable in his hands when dropped off and was in a very happy mood.

About: Hi! I’m Julia and dogs have always been an important part of my life. I grew up with an Old English Sheepdog that I miss dearly, and caring for her showed me how amazing it is to have a strong bond with a pet. Over the years, I’ve been trusted by friends, family, and neighbors to care for their dogs. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I have a flexible schedule and would love the opportunity to help care for your pup! I’m currently applying to graduate school and have a very open schedule. I’m available most weekdays and am often available on weekends, allowing me to provide flexible care for your pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal with the same care and attention I would give my own. I strive to create a calm, positive environment where pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether we're going for a walk, playing, or simply keeping a routine, I focus on making sure your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Dodi was wonderful. She kept us apprised of our dogs’ activities throughout the day, and went above and beyond what we had expected. When she came over to introduce herself to our “girls”, it was obvious that Dodi is a dog person. We would definitely use her again. Thank you, Dodi, for giving us the peace of mind that our girls were well cared for while we were away. Lauren, Ron, Maddie and Maggie”

I'm currently available full time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets! I'm open and available for boarding as well. I love being outdoors, and going on walks in nature. I also live in a beautiful complex that is pet friendly with lots of outdoor grassy nature areas, and a big park to walk to and play in just three blocks away from me. I can crate your pet too if needed.
About: I’d love the chance to care for your pup! I’m a big animal lover and know how important it is for dogs to feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just extra belly rubs, I’ll make sure your dog gets the attention they deserve. You can count on me to treat your furry friend like family! Being a florist means I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to care for dogs in between designing arrangements and setting up events. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I can easily fit dog sitting into my day. I love the balance it brings—flowers and furry friends both brighten my life! Whether in my home or yours, I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable by sticking to their routine and giving them plenty of attention and care.

“This was our first time ever using a dog walker on Rover. Courtney went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable leaving our fur baby with her. She is very responsive, and also provided us updates with pictures. We will definitively will use Courtney again.”
“Cecilia was great! I loved that she asked clarifying questions to make sure she knew exactly how to meet my pups needs. She went the extra mile and I appreciated her for it.”
About: Hi! I’ve been around animals since I was a toddler, ranging from dogs and cats to farm animals and small critters, and I’m eager to meet yours! I currently care for a puppy, a senior lab mix, a rabbit, and horse of my own. I am a college student at the University of Oregon, and will be home for the summer, and am eager to get to spend my days looking after your fur babies in my spare time. I’m available for pet sitting on the weekdays and weekends. I am also accommodating of last-minute drop-in bookings or overnight stays to care for your pets. I cater to each pet’s unique needs and the preferences of their owners. I remain attentive to their behaviors and personalities, ensuring I understand what brings them joy and contentment.

I know how to do it all, from basic grooming to walking! I’m currently back from college, with my summer widely open to help take care of your pets! My availability is extremely flexible. I am taking summer courses online so I will be readily available whenever needed! I adjust to the needs of whoever’s pet i’m looking after!

“Natalie was an absolutely amazing host, our dog had a wonderful time with her two friendly dogs and her dog-loving boyfriend. She has a very spacious house in a convenient location with a dedicated room for dogs. She was really nice to quickly accept taking care of our dog for an extra day due to an emergency as well. Will definitely ask her to dog sit again & to recommend to others.”
“Harlan was great! His energy was perfect for my Ruby. Very calm, collected, kind personality. Ruby wasn't at all anxious when I dropped her off or picking her up. They had lots of 1 on 1 time during walks in his quiet, peaceful community and relaxing atspacious home. He followed all my feeding/walking requests, sent me pictures regularly, and responded to messages promptly. I wish he lived closer, but his services were worth the gas! I will be sure to ask if he can move closer for next time lol. Will 100% absolutely be booking him in the future! Thank you, Harlan!”
“Anna was amazing! She kept us updated everyday with photos of our dog, and took him on lots of walks. She and her boyfriend gave our boy Angel so much love and attention he didn’t want to leave!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Happy to have had such wonderful, understanding true dog people for first vacation away for a weekend! He’s a timid sensitive boy, he looked relaxed and happy on all the photos and updates we received daily! We’re very thankful for him being so welcomed into their home! 🐶🫶🏼🐾💕”
“I can’t speak highly enough about David! He’s extremely caring, reliable, attentive, professional, and trustworthy. I have a lab puppy named Gracie, and David regularly walks her during the week while I’m at work and takes care of her when I’m traveling. I never have to worry about Gracie when she’s with David, which is invaluable. David is easy to coordinate with, and he shares lots of photos and updates along the way. I’m so thankful for his wonderful care of Gracie, and I highly recommend his service!”
“This was our second time boarding with Chris, and once again, he exceeded expectation…this time for two weeks! We couldn’t be happier with the attention our Frenchie received while staying with him. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he felt completely at ease and right at home. He didn’t even say goodbye before running right inside. Chris maintained our pup’s daily routine…from daily walks and playing soccer at the park, to evening wrestling matches. The regular updates and pics were awesome! We are 100% committed to boarding with Chris going forward and can’t recommend him enough to fellow pet parents looking for someone who treats your dog like family.”
“Kiya is really nice and great and took amazing care of our golden retriever teddy. He kept me updated through the stay and sent me pictures and videos all the time. Teddy is very picky and Kiya really took his time to help him out which was really great. Would recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”
“Shahrzad was absolutely amazing with my dog! I left my pup with her for boarding, and I couldn't be happier. Her backyard is fantastic—huge, secure, and perfect for dogs to run around and play safely. Shahrzad kept me updated and took wonderful care of everything. It's such a relief to find someone you can genuinely trust. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be booking with her again!"”
“Erika is a wonderful dog sitter! We have left our pup with her several times and do not plan to go to anyone else. She is clearly great with dogs, sends pictures and updates daily, and my shy little dog is always excited to go back.”
“Nick and Laura were absolutely awesome! I contacted them last minute for a weekend trip, and they responded super quickly and made everything easy and seamless. Their rate was fair, and my dog got along great with their pups, which was such a relief. They kept us updated with lots of photos and made sure we felt totally at ease while we were away. I would definitely recommend them and will absolutely reach out again in the future!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Silvana was very professional starting with the meet and greet. We left our 2 year old golden retriever and he couldn’t of had a better time. Silvana was always quick to respond with updates and photos and could tell our pup was in good hands. We will most definitely be looking to rebook with Silvana when we leave for longer trips.”
“I don't have enough good things to say about Kalani, Tomoko and their two sons. Our boy was SO happy and clearly loved spending time with them, which is rare due to his pretty severe separation anxiety. They are absolutely wonderful and I would wholeheartedly recommend them.”
“hayden was very responsive in a timely manner. photos were sent and took amazing care of my pup. will definitely book with hayden again in the future whenever i’m in town!!! highly recommend!!”
“Thea was great match for both of my dogs, from the beginning, I really loved the idea of the meet & great, it is a peace of mind knowing that you don’t have to worry about the actual day! I would definitely rebook with her, for the near future.”
“We have searched for a family like Nadia’s and are so grateful to have found them. Kona is a loving and energetic lab and loves to cuddle. Nadia is the first sitter to send pictures and updates without me asking. For the first time we can go away and know Kona is happy and loved. A Million Thank Yous to Nadia and her family. 🐾”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“Julia was incredible on our 1-week vacation away from our babies. She sent daily updates with pictures and I could tell our 2 dogs where loved and well-taken care of with her. Our dog Maggie was recovering from an ear infection and hates having ear drops put it, but Julia took on a the challenge and gave our stubborn girl her medicine. Also, I made a mistake on our booking time and Julia was kind and understanding about it. I hope Julia is available next time we need a sitter. She is a true gem!”
