“Cymantha was incredibly kind and communicative while watching my 10 year old husky, who generally does not do well when I leave him overnight! She had him for 4 days and texted me photos and updates everyday, which made the experience much easier for me. Cymantha’s experience shows in her work. Thor came home happy as ever, we will definitely be booking again!”
“Lauren and Ben were great sitters! My pup can be nervous and take some time warming up and they were patient and caring with her. She felt right at home. Will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Mackenzie and her family were AMAZING. They took such good care of our pups. Both Lylla and Rocket have separation anxiety issues, and we knew they had been well-loved because they were so calm when we picked them up. We also loved the "Welcome Puppies" chalk drawing that Mackenzie's daughter drew for us. We would absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again!!”
“Susan stepped in when another sitter cancelled my stay. She was very accommodating, attentive and caring with my Cavalier King Charles. Great backyard for running around! Wonderful one on one care, thanks Susan.”
“Ciana was absolutely wonderful and took great care of my baby. She also regularly sent me photos and updates so I knew that he was in great hands. I’ll definitely go back to her and would recommend her to anyone.”
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, so I was a little nervous. Randi’s communication was great throughout the whole process and she treated my boy like he was one of her own. She even sent pics and updates during my trip to let me know how he was doing. I highly recommend!”
“Katherine made Rosie feel comfortable and happy in her home. She's a dog lover and Rosie could tell. I was gone for 15 days and I would gladly have Katherine take care of Rosie again!”
“Alexis and I had a couple of communication misfires at first but we worked things out. I was a nervous dog mom since this was my first time on Rover. But Alexis was very responsive and took great care of my pup, who came home happy and healthy. I think my dog enjoyed her time in the country on Alexis’ property, and got lots of fresh air and exercise.”
About: I have had big dogs my whole life....taking care of them, walking them etc. Because I lost my big girl a year ago, and because of circumstances, I am not able to adopt yet, but would love to walk/take care of yours! I am dedicated to supporting dogs and their pet care needs. I am currently available 24/7 and am looking forward to helping all the owners and dogs! I currently have one rat terrier named Jake who is like 14-15 years old (?) but he gets along with everyone and is non-confrontational ;-)
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Siarra was BEYOND accommodating and welcoming to my big 85 lb pup. She was also very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors which provided me great comfort. This was his 1st stay away from home during the last year and we were gone for 4 days. Siarra made Hershey's first interactions with other dogs at the dog park fun and exciting. She treated him as her own and you can't ask for more than that.”
“Mariaelena was amazing! She accepted our last-minute booking and took such great care of our dogs. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and they looked so happy and relaxed the whole time. We could tell they were in great hands. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Michael and Casey were great. Easy to communicate with, friendly, accommodating to schedule changes, and clearly experienced with pooches. My pup came home happy as can be and will definitely use them again.”
“Tiffany was great! She was very professional, and her experience was evident throughout the entire process, from the first message to final pickup. She also sent us regular updates with pictures, which we really appreciated.”
About: I am home all day with my little pup and she would love a playmate and a sniffing buddy on her walks. We enjoy the local dog parks and never repeat the same walks twice in a row. She is very good about sharing her toys. I have always had large dogs so I’m quite comfortable with them as well. My yard is only partially bounded with hedges. So all potty breaks are accomplished with walks on leash. Or at either of the 2 off leash fenced dog parks here. I have experience giving oral medication with or without food as prescribed. And I only give bones under constant supervision on chew mat. It will be taken away at the end of the chew session. I am home all day with my pup and would like to care for dogs that we can fold into our routine of 3 walks a day. We hit the dog parks at least twice a day. I can only work with socialized dogs who behave and walk well on a leash. For overnight stays, they must be able to sleep on their own bed/crate. All my furniture is slipcovered so dogs are welcome to nap on the couch if they want. The whole house is hardwood floors and no stairs inside. I normally feed my dog 3 times a day and do not leave food out all day - just water is available all day. Treats are only used during training sessions or as rewards for doing something - a trick, a bath … etc
“Lindsey is the best! Our dog is so nervous of new people and other dogs, but she immediately knew how to connect with him. Her dog is also such a sweetheart and got along so well with our nervous boy. She sent us updates throughout each day with videos and photos. We’ve had a lot of dog sitters over the years and she is by far the best experience for both us as dog parents and our little fluffy guy.”

“Lindsay has been amazing over the past couple of weeks - looking in after our Twilight kittie while we had to be away. She has been so communicative, responsive, and caring. We are lucky to have found her.”
About: Ive always loved cats!! I've lived with over a dozen in my lifetime and Im always rescuing and saying hi to every kittenfish I meet. My Russian Blue and I are best friends and I pride myself on attention to detail. I am the sitter who will LISTEN to your pets needs and show up in a way that feels right for them. Never moving to fast and always respecting boundaries. I love making animals feel safe.
“Gianna was an amazing sitter for our cat Eli while we took a short trip out of town. Always arrived promptly at the times to feed and take care of Eli and from the looks of the pictures, he got Cody with her very quickly!! We will definitely be using her services again.”
“Mariah left very detailed reports on how our cats were doing on each of her drop ins, which we really appreciated. It helped us feel much less anxious leaving them alone when we traveled.”
“Siarra was amazing and went above and beyond to care for our two kitties. She was super communicative and even sent pictures of our cats every day - I highly recommend her!!!”
“Julianna was incredible! So attentive, punctual and thoughtful. She was the perfect fit for my cat, and adapted instantly to accommodate his needs. I would wholeheartedly recommend!”
About: I've been around cats since I was a baby. My family and friends call me the pet whisperer, with most of the whispering being with cats. I have 3 cats right now, all of which were feral rescues. I do have a special fondness for the senior kitties. They gave us years of joy and love, so they deserve all the spoiling I can give! I do enjoy a super clean litter box. I also can administer medications. I love all animals, but cats are my favorite!
“This was our first experience with Rover and we hit a home run with Channing. Her updates and photos confirmed Channing took great care of our sweet cat, Scout. Thank you, Channing!”
“Cassie took very good care of my cat. She shared pictures while I was gone which assured me that my baby was well taken care of. I will definitely reach out to Cassie again if I need the service again.”
About: I am a big dog lover and a proud pet parent to two dogs (Dude, goofy but lovable chocolate lab and my princess Gracie, a King Charles Cavalier and a sweet senior cat Zuzu.), so caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. My pets are truly my babies so I know what it means to have someone you trust to treat them like family! I have adopted senior dogs in the past as well so I have experience with older / special needs dogs too. I work from home most days - for drop ins mornings and nights for drop ins are better for me but I can do lunchtime drop ins. I have a fenced in yard in both the back and front yard on a safe small private lane. I do not allow pets outside unsupervised!
About: I have lots of experience caring for pets, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I cater to each pet’s individual needs. I’m passionate about animals and strive to provide the best care for your pets while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, as I prioritize giving each pet the attention and care they need. Each day includes feeding, walking, playtime, and regular check-ins to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Weekly, I ensure pets get consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and any special care they may require, like administering medication or grooming. Pet care is a rewarding part of my schedule, and I make sure to provide a structured and loving environment for every pet I look after. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable and safe environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of space to play, rest, and explore. Pets receive regular meals, daily walks, and engaging activities to keep them happy and healthy. I also provide lots of attention and affection, treating them like family members. Whether it's grooming, training, or simply offering companionship, I make sure each pet feels loved and secure during their stay.
“We have been working with Melany from the start of our Rover experience, and she has been spectacular! My husband and I have variable schedules week to week, but Melany is always understanding and steps in when she can. Our 6 month Shepherd mix has loved her visits over these past couple of weeks :)”
About: Hey there! I'm a gal who doesn't own a dog (just 3 cats!) who works from home some days of the week and is happy to take care of your pooch! I joke with my friends and family that I'm a kennel for their pups when they go out of town - why not help out other local friends! I have owned dogs my whole life but just don't have the time to own one currently so I'm happy to help out those that need someone to watch their fur baby! We have a wonderful large fenced yard in a quiet part of St. Helena. Your dog can have free access to the home and our fenced in yard. Quiet neighborhood next to vineyards where the pup can play! Happy to help you out - bring on the dogs! I love them all and am a fun and active person who will take wonderful care of your pet ( just ask my friends how obsessed I am with my cats Grover, Fat Freddy & Ralph!!). Thank you! I work from an office most days with the exception of event weekends and some evenings. I do sometimes have to leave during the day but your dog would be in a secure home with us. Fenced yard on the vineyard and close by lots of walking and vineyards. We do have 3 cats so I prefer your dog to be cat friendly or be able to take some hissing from them.
About: I grew up with dogs and recently lost my best friend, a corgi, Teddy. As a long time dog-owner, I understand how much anxiety goes into leaving your dog with someone else. I will treat your dog/s as if they were my own. I have much experience with aging / elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (dogs with leash aggression, anxiety, allergies, and prosthetic limbs/wheel chairs). My goal is to get to know you and your dog, and provide tailored service to meet your wants and your furry loved one's needs. I am happy to provide updates and pictures of our time together too! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out if you have any additional questions for me! Thank you! I work from home, which allows for frequent walks, potty breaks and play time! Both the dogs and myself appreciate the breaks within the day! I have a fenced in yard and multiple ring cameras to ensure everyone's safety. Neighboring houses do not have dogs; it is a quiet and peaceful environment.
About: I have had dogs since I was born, so growing up pets have always been impotent to me. I have learned the best ways to take care of them, and I am experienced in exactly what your pet will need! I am currently working part time, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I get off work at 3:00, and usually don’t work weekends. I always have time to walk and take care of my little guy at home. I am 100% willing to come to your home! I will stick to the schedule and rules you have for your pet, and make sure they are as comfortable as they are when you’re home!

“Mackenzie was super flexible, communicative and professional. My pup had a great time under her watchful eye. She followed all of my directions to a tee and then some. She went above and beyond to make sure my girl was happy as well as keep me updated on her stay. If you’re looking for someone seasoned to take care of your pets, Mackenzie is your gal!”
“I couldn't have been more pleased with Julie! This was my 1st rover experience and I was a bit nervous. When my anxious pup took to her and her home pretty immediately, I relaxed and was able to enjoy some alone time by the pool on my "solo" birthday vacation. Julie is a gem!”
“Katherine is such a sweet and loving person. She was very nice and caring to Mylo. Mylo warmed up to her easily. Would request her to take care Mylo if ever we come back to Napa. Thank you very much for today.”

“Our Dog lucked out by getting to hang with Robin and her family for a few hours during the holiday week. Robins dog Zuko is adorable and welcomed Maggie to share her couch - the ultimate compliment . Robin responds to messages quickly and sent great photos during Maggie’s visit. I highly recommend Robin !”
“Ciana and her husband were great caring for Fred, our 10 years old Westie! I was a bit nervous leaving Fred for the first time, as he has EPI and requires extra care with the preparation of his meals (he takes pancreatic enzymes). Ciana went above and beyond to keep me at ease and did a fantastic job with Fred. Thank you Ciana! We’ll definitely reach out again next time we’re in Napa!”
“Ashlyn and her fiance were so great! We have an anxious golden and they did a wonderful job putting him at ease. They gave the dogs (we have two) a ton of attention and sent so many awesome photos. We also love that they only take one family's dog(s) at a time to hang out with their own dog Boots. Looking forward to using them again.”

“Julie is such a gem. My seven month old dog Gigi had a great time with Julie, her family and her other dogs. Her fenced backyard and playtime with the other dogs, and Julie was a very enriching experience for my dog. She was all tuckered out at the end of the day. We recently adopted our dog and this was our first Rover experience and Julie really put me at ease. I appreciated her great and fast communication. I really enjoyed receiving the photos she sent me throughout the day. Next time I’m in Napa I would definitely like to bring Gigi to Julie‘s home for daycare! Thank you, Julie!”
“David took amazing care of Otis! I'm not the easiest owner as I'm always worried about my pup. I've almost always failed to successfully find someone on Rover. David was communicative, helpful, and just clearly understands and knows how to care for dogs. His dog Rosie is really sweet, too. I wouldn't hesitate for a second to leave my dog with David and was totally comfortable the entire time I was away. I will definitely use David anytime I'm in the Napa area for overnight care or just someone to watch Otis for the day.”
About: Growing up with dogs of all types gave me a love for animals and taught me how to care for them properly. Their loyalty and playful nature showed me the importance of patience, love, and having fun while taking care of them. I’m self-employed, which gives me the flexibility to care for your dog with personalized attention, love, and consistency throughout the day. I ensure their needs are met, from meals and walks to playtime and companionship. I treat every pet in my care as part of my family. In my home, I provide fresh water, nutritious meals, daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention to keep them happy and healthy.When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, medications, and any special needs. I make sure their space stays clean and secure. My goal is always to ensure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Lindsey is absolutely wonderful! She watched our little boy while we were at a wedding and she took great care of him! She sent frequent videos and pictures and updates and I wondered if he’d even want to leave haha. She made a potentially stressful day completely worry-free!”
“Words can’t describe how incredible Ashley is! She went above and beyond to care for our sweet Leo throughout our wedding day. We asked her to watch Leo during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and then take him back to the hotel to feed him and make him comfortable. She truly was a special part of our special day. Thank you so much Ashley for the level of care you gave to us and Leo 🤍”

About: Dogs have been a part of my life for over 10 years! My family and friends have entrusted me with the care of their pets whether that be a doggy beach day, a doggy pamper day or even just to hang out with their pup! I work from home Monday and Friday and I am able to adjust my own schedule to fit in dog walks, play time, feeding time, or whatever have you! My schedule revolves around my doggo! I have a super friendly dog, Shabba, who loves meeting other dogs and running around with them. I love taking dogs on walks or runs to the beach where they can get a lot of play time in :)

“Lindsay was such a good sitter for my little yorkie boy, Monty Banks! Super caring and attentive, making sure he was happy!! I explained that he is ALWAYS with me and may not be very engaging and just miss his mama, but she took him for an awesome walk and kept him busy and he even snuggled a bit. The photos were so cute and made me feel safe, as this is only our second time using Rover…what a great experience!! I was visiting wine country for a girls trip and decided last minute to grab a mud bath…so happy to have someone so special to puppy sit!!!”
“Olivia was awesome! I contacted her last minute, and she was very gracious, punctual, and kind. She not only took Axuni for a walk but also took the time to play with him. I really appreciated her care and attention!”
“Julie was absolutely amazing! My 4-month-old puppy had such a great time with her. She was super punctual, very responsive, and kept me updated throughout. I really appreciated that she took my puppy to the park and made sure she got plenty of exercise and attention. You can tell Julie genuinely cares about the dogs she works with. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
“David was extremely professional and flexible! I really appreciated his quick responses to my last minute requests before walking our dog on various occasions. I felt comfortable leaving our pup in his hands and would definitely recommend him!”
About: I have an 11lb, 10 year old maltipoo named Sailor that sparks joy, a lovely wine country home with fenced backyard & love caring for Sailor & his friends 🐶. I have experience with special needs pups (anxiety, disabilities, etc…) I treat every pup as my own & provide patience & care. I pride myself with responsiveness, updates & pictures. Working from home provides so much time & attention for play, walks & relaxation, home also has AC for the hot days keeping everyone very comfortable & happy! My amazing husband works from home part time & loves helping & enjoying our pup loving life! Dogs are very drawn to his calm, friendly energy. Sailor & pup friends are always attended, allowed supervised in fenced backyard, leash walks, & always allowed on beds and furniture, with plenty of toys & soft fluffy blankets to cuddle on. Happy to follow guidelines, & modify for less or more activity or routine preferences.
About: I have trained my personal dogs with basic commands and helpful safety training so the dog and human are safe. Can assist with puppy training and leash walking as well. I adore all cats and the strong willed personalities. Birds including chickens are also in my wheel house. My flexible schedule gives me the opportunity to care for your pet through the day in a mellow and calm environment. Multiple neighborhood walks and fetch are on the daily itinerary. I am comfortable with crate training dogs, and or free roaming pups. If your dog pulls on walks, I am delighted to have the patience to work on stopping this trait to make walking a breeze for you in the future.
“Sierra was fantastic!!! She is a gem of a find. She has a true love of animals and it shows in her overall care of my sweet French Bulldog. Sierra wax on time, professional, kind and my dog loved her. Can't wait to use her again. 5 STARS!!!! Plus, Plus Plius! Thank you Sierra!”
About: I've been around animals since I was a baby. I have a fondness for the senior pets, they are just the sweetest! I love having playtime and cuddle time and a good walk if you're pet enjoys walks. (My grand cat walks on a leash, so we go on walks all the time). It's a scary time when pet parents are away for both pet and parent and I'll be there to make all of you at ease! I have a very flexible part-time job, so that frees me up to spend as much time as needed with your fur baby most weekdays and weekends, even holidays! I have three indoor feral rescue kitties. It took time and trust on all sides, but all three are now the sweetest cats ever! Every fur baby that has been brought into my house over the years, was either a feral I rescued off the street or adopted from a shelter. Mine are indoor only, except for when I sit on the porch. They get to come outside, but they all stay on the porch and come inside when I do.So lots of toys and enrichment is important for them. They all love to play fetch and chase the laser! Whatever your pet requires or whatever their routine is, I'm there for it. It's all about your pet and putting your mind at ease that they are in the best possible hands!
About: I've spent years caring for my own pets, including senior dogs and cats, and I understand how important it is to treat every pet like family. I'm comfortable with puppies, shy dogs, counter surfers, herding breeds, and dogs who simply need alittle extra patience. Your pets safety, happiness, and routine always comes first. Please note: For Constant Care: If your pet needs someone home with them and cannot be left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time, there will be an added constant care rate of $75 per day. I schedule my day around making sure they're fed, exercised, and given plenty of love. My job allows me to be very flexible with my time. I like to keep the dogs routine as much as possible. Some dogs can get anxious when someone new is introduced and I find it's best to keep things as simple and normal as possible.
About: My first fur baby was Minnie (chi-weenie) gifted to me when I was 7 years old! Since then I grew up with her, my other fur baby Kobe who is a chihuahua mix, Lilly (Pitbull mix, and Chico (Pitbull mix.) My home was full of their love. I get to continue to share the love with all the doggy’s I have met so far. I am that friend everyone would come to for advice for their fur babies and to take care of. The last couple pictures are my precious babies that I would frequently care for in LA. I hope I am able to share these fun days with your fur baby! Whenever I get the chance to take a long walk I love including any doggy with me or just relaxing and watch bluey with my new fur pals. I’m very respectful of my surroundings and will always ask questions to know exactly of what you expect of me. Can’t wait to spend time with your pup!

About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.
About: I have had my own pet for 10+ years and added a husky to the family 3 years ago (I think they are one of the final bosses of learning to care for doggies) I befriend doggies I care for once we become acquainted :) I work from home most days, active with exercise so walking is already a big and important part of my daily routine and am pretty flexible :) I follow directions thoroughly as if your fur baby was my own as I would want somebody to do the same for me. Their family being away is already hard enough so important to keep everything else routine!
About: I have about 2 years of pet care experience, mostly with dog sitting and walking. I have worked mostly with larger dog breeds, but I have experience with a variety of dog sizes. I also have experience in small mammal pet sitting, such as guinea pigs and chinchillas. I am available to work around most people's schedules, if you are concerned please reach out and we can discuss what would work best for you and your pets. I am very detail oriented and good with instructions. I make sure that all instructions and care are followed as well as staying in touch to update you on your dog's fun times!
About: I am a responsible and reliable person. I am very gentle, and caring with animals. My whole life I’ve always wanted to be a vet. I want to help & take care for animals in any way I can. My family has always owned animals. We owned cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, chickens, frogs, fish, turtles, a tortoise, an african grey parrot, parakeets and a bearded dragon. For some time I have been walking dogs, pet sitting and dog bathing for family and friends. I became a vet assistant for a few years and wanted to try a new trade so now i am currently working as a dog groomer ! I am currently taking a break from dog grooming so I’m available anytime of the day! Very flexible with anyone's schedule! Would love to keep working with animals :) I always take care of any pets that are in my care! If I’m walking them , I will take them on adventures . Or just drop in visits, will give all my attention to them and make sure they are good before I leave!

“Cymantha was incredibly kind and communicative while watching my 10 year old husky, who generally does not do well when I leave him overnight! She had him for 4 days and texted me photos and updates everyday, which made the experience much easier for me. Cymantha’s experience shows in her work. Thor came home happy as ever, we will definitely be booking again!”
“Lauren and Ben were great sitters! My pup can be nervous and take some time warming up and they were patient and caring with her. She felt right at home. Will definitely be booking with them again.”
“Mackenzie and her family were AMAZING. They took such good care of our pups. Both Lylla and Rocket have separation anxiety issues, and we knew they had been well-loved because they were so calm when we picked them up. We also loved the "Welcome Puppies" chalk drawing that Mackenzie's daughter drew for us. We would absolutely ask them to watch our dogs again!!”
“Prior to boarding, John and I along with our dogs met up. He responded to all my messages in timely manner. He was very flexible and he sent some pics while we were away. He’s customer service was excellent.”
“Susan stepped in when another sitter cancelled my stay. She was very accommodating, attentive and caring with my Cavalier King Charles. Great backyard for running around! Wonderful one on one care, thanks Susan.”
“This was my first time using Rover and leaving my dog with a stranger, so I was a little nervous. Randi’s communication was great throughout the whole process and she treated my boy like he was one of her own. She even sent pics and updates during my trip to let me know how he was doing. I highly recommend!”
“Alexis and I had a couple of communication misfires at first but we worked things out. I was a nervous dog mom since this was my first time on Rover. But Alexis was very responsive and took great care of my pup, who came home happy and healthy. I think my dog enjoyed her time in the country on Alexis’ property, and got lots of fresh air and exercise.”
About: I have had big dogs my whole life....taking care of them, walking them etc. Because I lost my big girl a year ago, and because of circumstances, I am not able to adopt yet, but would love to walk/take care of yours! I am dedicated to supporting dogs and their pet care needs. I am currently available 24/7 and am looking forward to helping all the owners and dogs! I currently have one rat terrier named Jake who is like 14-15 years old (?) but he gets along with everyone and is non-confrontational ;-)
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and pets and have grown to understand and love them fully and I hope to spread that love towards other animals! I can come take care of pets almost every day! I am a working Christian girl so Sundays I have church for an hour, and I just recently started a new job so far my hours are 10am-7pm Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays! I’m available afternoons on Thursdays and I’m available weekends! I believe that pets require an immense amount of attention and affection and I will always create a trusting bond with the pet owners and answer any questions the owners may have!
“Siarra was BEYOND accommodating and welcoming to my big 85 lb pup. She was also very knowledgeable about dogs and their behaviors which provided me great comfort. This was his 1st stay away from home during the last year and we were gone for 4 days. Siarra made Hershey's first interactions with other dogs at the dog park fun and exciting. She treated him as her own and you can't ask for more than that.”
“Mariaelena was amazing! She accepted our last-minute booking and took such great care of our dogs. She sent lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, and they looked so happy and relaxed the whole time. We could tell they were in great hands. I’d definitely book with her again!”
“Tiffany was great! She was very professional, and her experience was evident throughout the entire process, from the first message to final pickup. She also sent us regular updates with pictures, which we really appreciated.”
About: I am home all day with my little pup and she would love a playmate and a sniffing buddy on her walks. We enjoy the local dog parks and never repeat the same walks twice in a row. She is very good about sharing her toys. I have always had large dogs so I’m quite comfortable with them as well. My yard is only partially bounded with hedges. So all potty breaks are accomplished with walks on leash. Or at either of the 2 off leash fenced dog parks here. I have experience giving oral medication with or without food as prescribed. And I only give bones under constant supervision on chew mat. It will be taken away at the end of the chew session. I am home all day with my pup and would like to care for dogs that we can fold into our routine of 3 walks a day. We hit the dog parks at least twice a day. I can only work with socialized dogs who behave and walk well on a leash. For overnight stays, they must be able to sleep on their own bed/crate. All my furniture is slipcovered so dogs are welcome to nap on the couch if they want. The whole house is hardwood floors and no stairs inside. I normally feed my dog 3 times a day and do not leave food out all day - just water is available all day. Treats are only used during training sessions or as rewards for doing something - a trick, a bath … etc
“Lindsey is the best! Our dog is so nervous of new people and other dogs, but she immediately knew how to connect with him. Her dog is also such a sweetheart and got along so well with our nervous boy. She sent us updates throughout each day with videos and photos. We’ve had a lot of dog sitters over the years and she is by far the best experience for both us as dog parents and our little fluffy guy.”
