“Thank you Poulette for sitting Blue! He seem well taking care of and very happy when he returned today. I would definitely recommend you as a great dog sitter!”
“Kayla was very communicative throughout the entire stay. It was our first time leaving our dog, and she immediately put us at ease when we met her. I loved receiving updates and pictures of him while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I would definitely trust her with our pup again!”
“Kelsey again exceeded our expectations! Such a good dog mom to our black lab, Titan. She got a walk in with him each morning before it was hot, he slept in her room just like at home, and got all the loves he could ask for. We will definitely be using Kelsey again in the future. :)”
“Lynn has always been wonderful with our dogs. They are spoiled with walks, treats and lots of cuddling. Lynn is the best dog boarder - we are never worried leaving our dogs with her.”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“Olivia was super flexible and communicative. We needed to do a pretty early drop off and it was no issue. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Our dog is coming home much happier than if she had stayed at a boarding place.”
“Our pup stayed with Grant and his “pack” for 12 nights. (The longest time he’s been away from home) Grant kept us updated during our trip with multiple text, pictures and videos. Sox had a great time running around and playing with the other dogs. We got him back very well behaved and tired which is always the goal for my high energy pup. We will definitely be using Grant again for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Alesya was great with my little guy and truly made us both so comfortable with his first boarding experience! She kept me informed along the way and it’s very clear she truly cares about the pups she watches!”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.”
“Our first time being away from our tiny Yorkie, and Susan and Irv did a great job. When she refused to eat they ended up hand feeding her and wouldn’t rest until they found something she would eat. We will definitely book Susan and Irv for future pet sits.”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“Domitria was a lifesaver! She was available last minute, welcoming and attentive. She sent me videos of our pup Josie to help us feel more secure with her stay. Will definitely rebook when needed!”

“Wes took great care of my two dogs, and I’ll definitely book another stay with him. They came back happy and tired from all the fun and playtime, and got along great with his dogs too.”
“Thank you to Tara. Our dog Murphy was well taken care of during his time at Tara’s house. He was treated like a member of her family. We would definitely use Tara’s services again if we need to leave Murphy behind when we go away on a trip.”
“Finding a trustworthy petsitter can be the most challenging part of planning a vacation. If you are lucky enough to book Arwen and her husband, Mike, you can rest assured that you made the right choice! Their farm is the perfect setting to leave your furry family members. They will be showered with love, attention, and care. There is so much for them to explore and take in that they will come back exhausted. Arwen kept me informed with pictures and didn't hesitate to reach out with a question regarding one of my dogs. I had the utmost of confidence leaving my dogs with them and without a doubt recommend them to my friends, family and the Rover.com community.”

“Adrienne was fantastic! She spent some time with my sweetie while my husband and I were off getting married. We booked her at the last minute when our original cat-sitter fell through, but Adrienne was there to save us! Lluvia was so pleased to have someone spend time with her that she didn’t seem at all phased when we got home. On top of that, Adrienne brought all of our packages inside that people sent us off of our registry. There must have been at least 20. We will definitely be hitting Adrienne up again in the future!”
“An excellent experience with my two cats; Carrington knows how to handle them according to their specific needs and preferences. When I returned, they were in great shape and had been very well cared for. Highly recommended 😊”
“It is nice to know that when we are away, our animals are well cared for. We have worked with Gavina twice so far and she has exceeded our expectations each time. Her pictures and notes are so helpful, and she ticked all the items on the list we left. We have already scheduled her for another out-of-town trip.”
“First time using this app. Needed last minute care for our cat munchie. They were very helpful, booked us last minute and made sure to send us updates a few hours after we dropped her off and in the morning as well. They took amazing care of her. Very happy with this experience!”
“Christina provided excellent care for our cat while we were on a two week vacation. She left our home in impeccable condition and even put fresh sheets on our bed. She communicated clearly and regularly. She sent pictures of our fur baby while we were away because she knew that we missed him. We highly recommend Christina.”

“Cheyenne always takes wonderful care of my Pawmu. I love watching all the adventures they go on. My little girl is full of energy and gets a lot of anxiety when she's alone, so I love and appreciate that Cheyenne takes her on many adventures and doesn't leave her side for more than 45 minutes. She always takes Pawmu with her, which is what I prefer. She always comes home in need of many naps :)”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and I always will, they’re the absolute best! When I turned 16 I became a puppy and dogsitter for many family friends as well. I know that a happy dog is a tired dog and I strive to do that even with my own puppy and yours will get the same treatment! Of course different dogs have different energy levels and I have experience with large, medium, small; puppies or seniors! I also have some light experience giving medication. I currently have one dog, Marvin, who is a two year old small/medium sized mutt! He loves to play and gets along with all other dogs! We love to go to the dog park, regular park, around the neighborhood, and wherever dogs are allowed and would love your pup to join us! I am currently staying at home while I complete my credential program online so I will have plenty of time to care for your pet! My yard is completely fenced in and we make sure to keep anything dangerous far out of reach of our pets. Of course we will follow any rules you have with your dog but our dog is allowed on furniture and sleeps wherever he wants.

About: I am a 15+ year vegan and lifelong animal lover. I have had pets on and off for my whole life, including dogs, cats and other animals and my family has always adopted rescue animals. I even spent a lot of weekends and most summers as a pre-teen/teenager helping on my grandparent’s ranch, where we cared for rescue animals. I love caring for animals and making sure they are well loved and looked after while they are with me. I have regularly dog and cat sat for friends, family and co-workers over the last 15 years or so. I am comfortable with any size or age dogs and cats. My family in the past has had all sized dogs from a chihuahua to the two german shepherd mixes we have now. They are all characters and they make us laugh everyday, and bring joy to our lives. I love being around animals and seeing their different personalities, especially when I meet dogs out public and get to ask their name and say hi. It genuinely makes me happy. I look forward to helping you care for your fur babies as if they were my own. I have experience giving medicine in pill form to cats and dogs, have cared for young and senior pets alike. Whether it’s watching them overnight, or doing drop-ins to maintain a regular meal/medicine routine or making sure your pet stays hydrated throughout the day, I prioritize comfort and health for all animals in my care. I currently work 8-5pm from home, and I would like to offer my caregiving in around those hours. For stop overs/check in's during my lunch break, after work hours and on weekends, I will check in on your pet(s) and make sure they are taken care of and have what they need, per your specific instructions. For overnight care, I would simply need somewhere to sit with my computer and reliable wifi in order to work from your home, so I can be there all day with your pet(s). I do not offer care from my own home, but will travel to and/or stay at your home for the specific care you many need.
About: I have grown up with cats & dogs of all types. We are not currently pet owners but would want to share the love and help where we can. I’m currently not working and staying home with my 4 year old. I can be as flexible as you need me to be. We want to help get your pets moving and enjoy the sunshine at the same time. We look forward to helping your family accommodate your pets needs with a safe and friendly front. I have a toddler that would like to assist with caring for your pets and we will be here when you need us.
About: I've had the pleasure of loving and taking care of furbabies of all sizes for 20 years. I first started pet sitting for an acquaintance in 2005. Later, when I became established in the area as a trusted house cleaner, I started pet sitting for some of my clients and their friends. Sadly, I lost all my clients and contacts save one in the Camp Fire as my client base was in Paradise and Magalia. Since then, I have taken care of my own little furbabies and ever so often cared for the Chihuahua/Pug/Terrier mix of the one remaining client from Paradise. Within the years that I was actively pet sitting, I took care of dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to Whippets. I am excited to once again assist you with your pet sitting needs and ensure the best attention is given to your dog’s health, happiness, and well-being! For my clients in Paradise and Magalia, I did both drop-ins and overnight stays. (My favorite memory was staying with two little lovely Dachsies for three weeks!) I made sure each pet I took care of was fed as per the instructions given to me and that they had access to fresh, clean water. Whether it’s maintaining a regular meal routine or making sure your pet stays hydrated throughout the day, I prioritize comfort and health for all furbabies in my care. I also have experience administering medications, whether oral or topical, and am dedicated to ensuring your pets specific medical needs are met with precision and care. I know personally the importance of a vet's instructions and the proper maintenance of a consistent medication routine. I also know the importance of exercise in keeping a pet happy and healthy. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous activity, I am happy to ensure that your pet gets the exercise and playtime they need! Above all, each dog that I have taken care of I have treated as part of my family. I look forward to providing your furbaby with the same love, attention, and care that I have given to my past clients and to my own pets! I currently have a day job between the hours of 9:00AM and 3:30PM, Monday through Friday. My hours are flexible with my day job and I can switch obligations around as needed to suit your pet sitting needs. I do not work on weekends. I can be available during the day on week days, and am available nights during the week, and evenings and nights on weekends. For any pet in my care, whether it has been a client's pet or my own, I have always ensured that they have gotten plenty of love and quality care. For past clients, I adhered to all instructions given pertaining to feeding time, exercise and medications if applicable. I made sure there were plenty of cuddles and that every pet in my care felt safe and secure.

“Thank you Poulette for sitting Blue! He seem well taking care of and very happy when he returned today. I would definitely recommend you as a great dog sitter!”
“Kayla was very communicative throughout the entire stay. It was our first time leaving our dog, and she immediately put us at ease when we met her. I loved receiving updates and pictures of him while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. I would definitely trust her with our pup again!”
“Kelsey again exceeded our expectations! Such a good dog mom to our black lab, Titan. She got a walk in with him each morning before it was hot, he slept in her room just like at home, and got all the loves he could ask for. We will definitely be using Kelsey again in the future. :)”
“I was nervous having to use this app for my dogs to stay the night at a strangers house. My original plans fell through. Hailey not only accommodated my last minute plans so I could still go on my trip, I completely messed up the booking and she had no clue problems accommodating this as well. She gave me updates throughout the visit. I was so happy to hear my dogs got along great with her dogs and kids. She used her best judgement on when she introduced the dogs which all I wanted was for her to be comfortable. I did tell her my dogs go to daycare 4 days a week so I know my dogs are well behaved but you still never know. I will definitely be using her again. She already said she would be happy to watch my dogs for my vacation in July.”
“Olivia was super flexible and communicative. We needed to do a pretty early drop off and it was no issue. We got lots of great pictures throughout her stay. Our dog is coming home much happier than if she had stayed at a boarding place.”
“Our pup stayed with Grant and his “pack” for 12 nights. (The longest time he’s been away from home) Grant kept us updated during our trip with multiple text, pictures and videos. Sox had a great time running around and playing with the other dogs. We got him back very well behaved and tired which is always the goal for my high energy pup. We will definitely be using Grant again for our future dog sitting needs.”
“Nicole went above and beyond to make sure my pup was comfortable and well adjusted to her home. She also went above and beyond with communicating with me! I’ll be booking again!”
“Very nice experience for us. This was the first time I’ve had to board my dog and I was worried about her reaction to being alone. Samantha kindly reassured me that she would be okay. There is a large fenced area for off leash play time. Blondie was taken on long walks and was bedded down in a stall in a former stable. She had a cozy bed and a heater. When we picked her up she looked happy and comfortable. We are very satisfied with Samantha’s kind care of Blondie.”
“Jennifer and family were great!! I think they went above and beyond to care for our dog Chewie while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. I would highly recommend her and will book her again when needed!! Thanks Jennifer💕”
“Domitria was a lifesaver! She was available last minute, welcoming and attentive. She sent me videos of our pup Josie to help us feel more secure with her stay. Will definitely rebook when needed!”
About: I have a home full of love to give along with a big back yard for play! Plenty of grass as well as dirt areas for those who like to dig. My senior dog, Charlie, a female terrier mix is friendly and inviting, just as we like to be! I am a stay at home mom so your fur babies will never be alone! Just like my own kids, I understand routine is very important and promise to care for your pets as you would in your own home. There is nothing I wouldn't do to make your fur baby feel safe and secure, as I would accept nothing but the same for my own! About this sitter: A caregiver by nature, I have always had a lot of love to give! Grew up on a farm and can honestly say I have no memories of life without some kind of fur baby in my life. Now that I am creating a home for my own children, I want them to grow in the same atmosphere. Our home will always be open to help and care for anyone and anything in need! I have a pet friendly home with a large backyard to play. My senior dog is friendly and welcoming along with 3 cats who love to do their own thing (all are fixed and well behaved). From snuggling on the couch to crate training, depending on your preference, my home has it all. Not to mention a family of animal lovers to make sure your fur baby gets all the love they could ever want!
“Wes took great care of my two dogs, and I’ll definitely book another stay with him. They came back happy and tired from all the fun and playtime, and got along great with his dogs too.”
“Finding a trustworthy petsitter can be the most challenging part of planning a vacation. If you are lucky enough to book Arwen and her husband, Mike, you can rest assured that you made the right choice! Their farm is the perfect setting to leave your furry family members. They will be showered with love, attention, and care. There is so much for them to explore and take in that they will come back exhausted. Arwen kept me informed with pictures and didn't hesitate to reach out with a question regarding one of my dogs. I had the utmost of confidence leaving my dogs with them and without a doubt recommend them to my friends, family and the Rover.com community.”
“Impressive. Is the words I need yo say. My dog appears exhausted and happy. He might be a little down after having a friend(dog) while out there. The folks are Lab people and they took took to him like he takes to people. Will use when needed. Thanks guys.”
“Jena was more than amazing. She made Noelle's day. In fact, Noelle feel in love with her family within days. Jena would constantly update us with photos and updated news of Noelle. I highly recommend anyone who is a dog lover to book with Jena. I know that I will book with Jena in the future. I can't say enough about Jana. Thank you so much from Frank & Elesia. Noelle will miss you guys.”

“Kelsey was an Awesome host for my dog Apollo! She kept me up to date on his stay sending pictures and his interactions with the other dogs. I will definitely be taking back to stay with her again soon!”
“Coco and Jeff were absolutely wonderful with my anxious dog. They had clear communication, were flexible with scheduling and very caring; My dog was more relaxed than she usually is after boarding. Would definitely highly recommend!”
