“Poulette was very responsive to communications. I got responses to my inquiries very quickly. And while Whiskey and Vixen boarded with her, I received daily updates and photos of the dogs playing in her yard. I am very glad to have found a home environment for my dogs to stay in when they cannot be at my home.”
“Our dogs always love staying with Lynn. They have such a wonderful time playing, walking and napping. Their favorite pastimes are eating her special treats and watching for squirrels. We never worry about them when we drop them off with her - she treats them like her own.”
“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.”
“Domitria took wonderful care of Lala. Lala is a senior doggy of 16 yrs. She's eyesight challenged & hearing challenged but that didn't matter. She was still loved & cared for exceptionally well. I'm very happy with Domitria's care of Lala.”
“Damon is a very caring dog sitter and she sent me lots of videos and pictures of my dogs and they looked happy and comfortable in Damon’s home. I will be using Damon for sure in the future. She’s awesome ???❤️? Thanks Damon for taking such good care of my babies ?❤️?❤️”
“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.”
“Our dog Bear (GSD mix) has been to Gabby’s farm a few times now, and he absolutely thrives there! He gets so much exercise, and has a blast being able to see the other animals. He eats his food there which shows how comfortable he is, and gets lots of love! We had a situation where we got stuck on vacation for a whole extra week, and Gabby put us at ease by keeping Bear without a hesitation. She took care of getting him extra food, and he came home happy as can be! She also groomed him and he looks like a million bucks! We always feel safest leaving Bear with Gabby on her awesome property. Thanks Gabby!”
“Although this Mom was incredibly nervous to leave her boy for the first time since moving to California, Grant was AMAZING! He sent tons of pictures and videos to put my mind at ease and Pete had a great time. We won’t hesitate to use Grant again!”
“Mrs. Pam responded to my service request at last minute for my fur baby within an hour. She sent updates periodically and I totally felt my baby was left in safe hands! I would highly recommend her.”
“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.”
“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”
“Kelsey was such a wonderful sitter to leave my JaxSun with. It was a first time for him and for me his mommy. Kelsey took such good care of him, I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. I rate her 10 stars. Highly recommend her.”
“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.”
“Megan was great. She was very comfortable with doggy behaviors especially with my restless dogs getting there after a 500 mile drive. She didn’t hesitate to jump right in. They were happy and well cared for!”
“This is my first time using Rover and I couldn’t of asked for a better experience. Victoria was so amazing and took care of my 6 month old puppy like her own. She would send me photo updates and answer any questions I had. She even helped my pup sleep in his crate overnight which we were struggling at home. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“Jessica went out of her way to have our Belle for right in. She accommodated very specific dietary needs as well. Even was flexible with pick up time when our flight was delayed. All this over a holiday time period. We are very grateful for the daily pictures which ensured us of Belle’s comfort! The frosting on the cake was a little parting gift she sent is home with - we are very appreciative for all and will definitely use Jessica again!”

“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.”
About: I've become quite the cat lover in recent years and have had quite the unique experience of taking care of both my own Sphynx hairless cat and a multitude of strays at shelters.

About: Hello, I am lexington a recent college graduate and I am trying to save money to go to vet school as well as get experience with different dogs or animals. I have experience with giving dogs shots and where to place the different kinds of shots on the dog or cat. I have worked with many different breeds at the butte humane society. I started out going twice a week to 3 times weeks for 6 hours weekly just to walk dogs and hang out with cats. I got up to 108 hours for a unit course which was cool. I have also helped with wags and whiskers events such as moving the dogs to the pen area so they could get adopted. I have also grown up with animals my whole life, since my first animal was when I was two and he was a black cat named mine. Full availability till the 27th of may and then I am available after 5:30 pm Monday-Thursday. Open availability on the weekends though.

I can do heavy lifting if needed.

About: I've had cats since I was 5. My grandparents also has a farm so I have lots of experience with farm cats and feral cats. I've also worked for 10+ years with a local rescue, raising kittens only days or weeks old until they are old enough to be fixed and adopted - feeding them milk on a regular schedule and then weaning them onto wet food, then dry food, also teaching them how to be a cat by interacting with my cats. During the course of my volunteering I have also been taught various first aid treatments as well as how to administer medications and injections.

About: I love pets! More than human most of the time. I enjoy talking to them and learning from them, and playing! Your baby will be in very good hands with me! I am a student and can only work part time. This kind of work is not only ideal for my schedule and financial needs, its an opportunity to make new 4 legged friends! I am not able to host any furry friends. But I can walk them around their neighborhood. Hang with them in their home with their owners are away. I've cared for many different breeds with many different needs and I am more than happy to accommodate for whatever is needed.

About: I’ve taken care of cats for as long as I can remember. I currently have two who are very spoiled with comfort and affection! I have taken care of pregnant Mothers and their litters that were left at my home. I’ve bottle fed and administered medications. I have had cats that live only indoors, only outside, and some who do both. Their food regimen, fresh clean water, and clean litter boxes are always a priority of course, as well as playtime, and pets and or cuddles (when they’re in the mood!) I am very aware of how clever cats can be and am adept at ensuring their environment is safe.

“I was very hesitant in leaving my pup due to me never wanting to leave him with anyone , but today I had to leave town for the day.. I felt comfortable leaving macho with her. She sent me pictures and we talked through out the day! My pup never potty outside before , and today he did!! He must of had fun because he’s been sleeping since I got him back lol.”
“I tried Rover for the first time yesterday with Ashleigh in Bakersfield. At first, never having done it I was a little worried but Ashleigh was so nice and friendly. She was very welcoming when I dropped off Bella and when I went back to pick her up, I could tell Bella was comfortable in her home. I also found out Bella learned how to use a doggy door which is nice and new. Would definitely trust Ashleigh with my dog again. Highly recommend!”
“Lynn was amazing! She went way above and beyond my expectation. I'm extremely protective of my pups and was worried about leaving them, but once I met Lynn and saw how she was with my little guys and with her own "babies", and how secure her yard was, I felt completely at ease and comfortable leaving them in her care. I didn't bring their food with me because we weren't leaving them overnight and they won't eat when we're not there. She made them chicken! which of course they ate right up. This woman LOVES dogs. I will definitely use her again and would highly recommend her.”
“Wes did such an amazing job taking care of my boy today. Wes kept me up to date throughout the day and kept Cade entertained and happy all day. I would highly Wes to anyone looking for pet care services. Thank you again Wes!”

“Olivia was great! I highly recommend her! We had a funeral to attend in the Yuba City area and our dog sitter wasn't available..Olivia agreed to watch Bandit with 1 days notice. She sent pictures & gave us updates throughout the afternoon. You could tell she loves dogs! We will definitely use her services again if we ever have a need again for a sitter in that area of California!”

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.

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).

“Kelsey did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of JOMO today! She was attentive, kind, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled with care. Her warm personality put us at ease right away, and it was clear how much she genuinely cared. JOMO was happy and well looked after, which means the world to us. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Kelsey!”
About: We are a loving family with two young girls and a dog. We enjoy being outdoors and spend much of our time in the garden. Our property features a pond for dog-paddling, a lawn for ball throwing, and many trails for exploring. I am a stay at home mom so I’m able to give around the clock care. We usually go for a walk through the orchards after breakfast and spend most of our day outside, watering the gardens and doing work around the property. We also enjoy an evening stroll before bed. We live on 10 acres and have a perimeter fence as well as a fenced backyard for free play. We have a private, secure dog run if your pup is more comfortable in their own space as well. We are usually up between 6-7, we can feed breakfast then or after our morning walk around the property to feed the farm animals. We do a lot of outdoor play and work in the garden that our boarding dogs usually love. I am a stay at home mom and Michael works from home so your dog gets constant companionship. We have a fenced yard that attaches to our house and a doggie door so your dog can go in and out as it pleases. This area is the main place your dog will stay when we are not romping around the farm.
“I recently had the pleasure of having Victoria and her family care for my two English bulldogs, and I cannot express enough how wonderful the experience was! From the moment I reached out, Victoria was incredibly thoughtful and attentive to my dogs' needs. It was clear that she has a genuine love for animals, and her caring demeanor truly put my mind at ease. Throughout the day, Victoria consistently kept me updated with pictures and messages, which reassured me that doggos were having a great time. Victoria's attention to detail and her warm, inviting family environment made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you, Victoria, for making our time away stress-free and enjoyable!”
“Marya has been taking good care of Finley weekly since he was just a puppy. She is very patient with my high energy dog and he gets extremely excited every time we pull into her driveway area :)”

“Jennifer did a wonderful job caring for our Golden Retriever in her home! She was professional, kind and caring, with us (dog parents) and our dog! Jennifer provided text updates and pictures which we LOVED and appreciated! Jennifer and her family took excellent care, feeding and supervision of our Kea, and I would highly recommend her care for other dogs!”
“Absolutely amazing! Dan always goes above and beyond to take great care of Kamora. He’s reliable, caring, and communicative. He always makes sure she feels comfortable and well cared for. I’m so grateful!”
“We rarely need a safe place for Skye, our Husky mix. As long as Kathleen is available she will always be our first choice. This is based on how willing Skye is to stay with Kathleen, and how comfortable and happy she seems for the next day or so after a stay. Skye is a calmer, high energy pup afterwards.”
“This is so long over due! Diane is lovely and really loves all the doggies in her care. She has done such an amazing job in her home to encore the dogs are healthy happy and safe. My dog often got sad leaving Diane as he had more fun with her and her dogs than he does at home with a couple of older cats who don't care for him much.;-)”

About: I've had pet experience for my whole 20 years of living! Whether that be in my own home with the over 10 pets I've had (including dogs, cats, and reptiles) or at the multiple pet related jobs I've worked at which include dog grooming and Pet Supplies Plus retail. I have yet to meet an animal that doesn't enjoy my company and don't see that changing any time soon. I'm currently unemployed so truly have all the time in the world to tend to all of your pet's needs including my own. I've grown even closer to my pets having so much free time on my jamds and know I can offer that same love and attention to anyone who may need me! I've had many pets with health conditions that require special care and attention that more relaxed pet owners wouldn't have the time nor the patience for. I also ensure that my pets get plenty of exercise and activity to keep them moving and high-energy!
About: I am a loving pet mom for 15 yrs and before and during that time I have helped many others with their animals. I can sit, check in and play with, and take for walks. I love animals and giving them attention because I know it is so important. I work from home so I love reasons to get out of the house and pet friends to keep me company at night. I work and stay 100% near the outskirts of Yuba City. My pets and their friends safety in #1 in my house and yard. I have a very large fenced in back yard and I have proofed it so not even very small dogs (like mine) can find a way out. I am an avid pet counter before doors are open and I double and sometimes triple check that the home is secured before I leave, we don’t want any babies to get out of their safe space.

About: With a lifetime of experience around animals and the last 7 years being dedicated to hands-on pet care, I've decided to put my passion and love for animals into full-time pet sitting. I currently have 4 dogs and 1 cat in the home, most of my pets throughout my life have been rescues. My german shepherd that was rescued 7 years ago really brought out my passion for working with animals. I have experience with a range of breeds, ages, sizes, personalities, high-maintenance care, medical care, you name it! I'm not just a dog or cat person, I'm an animal lover. The pets we bring into our homes are family, and I strive to make sure all feel comfortable and content.

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! My schedule has changed and is more open during the work week. I currently have a day job between the hours of 12:30PM and 2:30PM, Monday through Friday. My hours can be flexible with this day job. I am available early morning and some evenings during the work week. My schedule changes, on occasion, in the evenings Monday through Friday. My weekends are fully free and am available for pet sitting, dog walking and drop-ins all day on Saturday and Sunday. 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.
About: I have been a dog lover since I was a young child playing with them holding them. Let them show me there joys and if sad hold them for awhile. They are wonderful friends. I am currently not working as summer school jobs are slim. I am available any day at anytime I am needed use me if needed I will care for your dogs by giving them structure and a routine so they can’t miss you as much and anxious behavior is minimized.
“Lexington was amazing!! She was wonderful with my dog, who is on the more sensitive side. Despite my Mildred's initial anxieties, Lexington was able to win her over with her patience and kindness. I would definitely recommend her as a sitter, especially if your fur baby needs a little extra TLC 🩷”
About: I’ve always grown up with dogs and cats and have enjoyed taking care of them from babies to seniors. Family and friends have all separately mentioned how I create a unique bond with their fur babies whether I’ve cared for them or merely visited them over the years. People know in reliable, patient, loving, and don’t mind rolling in the grass along with your pet. I work from home on my own schedule so have plenty of time to drop in and spend with pets and take them for walks. I currently live in a pet friendly apartment and can board cats or dogs if any size and breed if needed. I am attentive to the needs at feeding time, play time, and every time in between.
About: I have always had dogs as a part of my family. As a pet owner myself I understand the need of needing someone reliable to watch my boys when I've been away, on business trips or have had to take a vacation in which they were unfortunately not been able to join me. I am able to offer a safe and reliable place to keep your beloved family members when you are unable to have them with you. I own my own home and have a huge backyard so your pets are able to have room to run and play. I also have two kids that are both HUGE animal lovers so your pup will be spoiled. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family member(s)!
“Elisa is an incredible dog walker. She went above and beyond to make sure my doggo got her exercise even though it was raining. She was on time and clearly cares about animals. I'll definitely be calling her in the future.”
About: I grew up here in Northern California with many different loyal pet dogs. After high school I joined the Army and got out of active duty in 2017. Long story short I moved to Alaska with my pet dog from Yuba City where I learned to be a dog musher and she learned to be sled dog. I’ve worked for various different high level sled dog kennels, thousands of different dogs, thousands of hours with dogs, thousands of miles with dogs, and even spent a year working at an Athletic & Longevity Canine Research Facility under the mentorship of some of best veterinarians and scientists. My knowledge and experience in general canine medical care, psychology, and training is advanced. I currently work from home & have a flexible schedule. I open to the special needs & care of your beloved pet from all ages. Each pet is individually unique when it comes to specific pet care, so I will work diligently with owners to best understand their pet. I have 1 spayed female 8 y/o Shepherd/Husky mix who is well tempered, a lead sled dog, well socialized to keep your pet company(friendly with both dogs & cats). I have a dog door that leads to a fenced in backyard. Regularly scheduled feeding, walks, & bathroom breaks.
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I truly enjoy caring for them like they’re my own. Over the years, I’ve been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to look after their pets, and I take that responsibility to heart. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities, including raising a German Shepherd who completed professional training, as well as helping with puppy training and basic obedience. At home, I have two cats, so I’m very comfortable with both dogs and cats and understand the different kinds of care and attention they need. My focus is always on making pets feel safe, loved, and relaxed while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. For boarding, my husband and I create a warm, pet-loving home where animals are treated like family. We both have grown up around pets and genuinely enjoy their company. Your pet will be cared for with kindness, patience, and plenty of attention while they stay with us. When your pet stays with me, you can expect: 🐾 Reliable, attentive care 🐾 Regular photo and video updates 🐾 Plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection 🐾 Respect for your pet's routine and special needs 🐾 A safe, loving environment where they're treated like family Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship they need throughout the day. Since I already care for my own cats, I'm accustomed to maintaining feeding schedules, providing enrichment, monitoring behavior, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether it's walks, potty breaks, play sessions, cuddles, or simply keeping a pet company, I make time to give each animal personalized care based on their needs and routine. My husband and I work together to create a calm, loving environment for pets staying in our home, ensuring they receive plenty of supervision, affection, and attention while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always strive to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy. In my home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where pets receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication needs, exercise routines, and any special preferences to help pets feel at home. For pets staying with me, I make sure they have regular opportunities for exercise, mental stimulation, rest, and lots of love. My husband and I are both animal lovers and work together to provide a welcoming environment where pets receive plenty of supervision and companionship. When caring for pets in a client's home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, litter box or yard cleanup, medication administration if needed, and plenty of attention and affection. I also send regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they're away. My goal is always to reduce stress, keep pets comfortable, and give owners peace of mind knowing their furry family members are receiving reliable, loving care.
About: I have an understanding of dog psychology and act calm under pressure. Previously, I was the dog trainer at Petsmart for a year and a half. I love dogs very much and care for their success! My main concern is the dog's health, which is why walking them is extremely important. Giving dog's additional exercise other than playing in the back yard is key to releasing their excess energy. Walks also provide new areas to explore which will give them an opportunity to use their smellers and analyze the world. You will be surprised at how tuckered out they become! If you wanted to have your dog work on socialization and make new dog friends, I am more than willing to help your fur baby improve in this area. I am available Tuesday through Saturday mornings for a walk. There is a possibility of opening a window of availability in the afternoons. Let’s talk! I would be most comfortable caring for your dogs in your home. Their environment is key to easing the stress of your absence in their daily routine.
About: I’m a huge animal lover of both cats and dogs! I’ve had experience training puppies and also caring, walking, crate training, and maintaining a healthy feeding schedule. I’m open any day of the week at any times and I’m able to come house sit. Most animals are comfortable in their own home so whatever works best for them. I will ensure a safe environment for your pet whether that be crating your pet, keeping a close eye on your pet, and providing them play as a healthy distraction as you arrive.
About: i’ve taken care of dogs, and I have a puppy of my own, so no worries, looking after any of your furry friends, thank you! I’m currently full-time in the military, but on my off days i’m home all day so i’ll be able to spend time with your furry friends and take them on many walks! There is a couple dog parks near where I live, so if you want your friend to get out and active, I would be happy to take your dogs for some extra activity in the park!
About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.
About: I currently am working as a dental assistant, I have plenty of time to play/walk with your loving pet! I have a few of my own also! I have worked with different breeds of dogs and i love them all:) I’m good with training the basics to any puppies too🤗 I work 4 days a week , some tuesday i am free all day, and on the weekdays i am available after 6pm. Weekends i’m free Safety and comfort are very important to me. I have a 5-year-old dachshund and four other dogs of different sizes/breed, so I’m very experienced caring for dogs.

About: I've always loved animals, even though I didn't grow up with pets or own any myself. Over the years, I've gained hands-on experience by dog sitting for friends, including caring for their dogs during multiple overnight stays, and by helping care for my fiancé's family pets. From feeding and walks to playtime, companionship, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away, I've learned how important patience, consistency, and attention are. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet with the same care, affection, and respect I would want for my own. I currently work as a special education paraeducator for my local school district. Since I'm off for the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. This flexibility means I can give your pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I always strive to keep pets happy, comfortable, and on their normal routine. For dog walks, I make sure each walk is safe, enjoyable, and tailored to your dog's energy level and needs, whether they prefer a stroll or a more active outing. I pay close attention to their behavior, provide plenty of water when needed, and make sure they return home happy and relaxed. For dog sitting, I follow your pet's usual schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and preferences to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I'll also keep your home clean and treat it with the same respect and care I would my own, while providing regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind.

“Poulette was very responsive to communications. I got responses to my inquiries very quickly. And while Whiskey and Vixen boarded with her, I received daily updates and photos of the dogs playing in her yard. I am very glad to have found a home environment for my dogs to stay in when they cannot be at my home.”
“Domitria took wonderful care of Lala. Lala is a senior doggy of 16 yrs. She's eyesight challenged & hearing challenged but that didn't matter. She was still loved & cared for exceptionally well. I'm very happy with Domitria's care of Lala.”
“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.”

From energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s personality. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love so they feel happy and secure. I’m located less than a mile from home with a flexible schedule, so I can easily stop by throughout the day to make sure your pet is doing great. Even though I live in an apartment complex, home has plenty of space and surrounded by beautiful parks & trails to keep pet happy and active
“Our dog Bear (GSD mix) has been to Gabby’s farm a few times now, and he absolutely thrives there! He gets so much exercise, and has a blast being able to see the other animals. He eats his food there which shows how comfortable he is, and gets lots of love! We had a situation where we got stuck on vacation for a whole extra week, and Gabby put us at ease by keeping Bear without a hesitation. She took care of getting him extra food, and he came home happy as can be! She also groomed him and he looks like a million bucks! We always feel safest leaving Bear with Gabby on her awesome property. Thanks Gabby!”
“Arwyn and her family are amazing! They provide the highest quality care and our pup- Oliver- left her home happy as a clam. Arwyn is super sweet in her communications and sends pictures daily. Oliver was living his best life on their farm and got to run around with her adorable daughter and farm animals on the regular. It is a huge sigh of relief moving to California and not knowing anyone.. to have found Arwyn and her family. You can tell she genuinely has a love for animals and that gave us great peace of mind entrusting our pup in her care. We can’t wait to utilize her again!”
“Although this Mom was incredibly nervous to leave her boy for the first time since moving to California, Grant was AMAZING! He sent tons of pictures and videos to put my mind at ease and Pete had a great time. We won’t hesitate to use Grant again!”
“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.”
“Marya had our two young Frenchies overnight for their first time away from home. She sent us pictures and a video of them settling in and getting acquainted with her larger dog. She was very thoughtful in handling our little ones and communicated really well with us. We are planning to use her for a longer trip in just a few weeks.”
“Kelsey was such a wonderful sitter to leave my JaxSun with. It was a first time for him and for me his mommy. Kelsey took such good care of him, I couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter. I rate her 10 stars. Highly recommend her.”
“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.”
“Megan was great. She was very comfortable with doggy behaviors especially with my restless dogs getting there after a 500 mile drive. She didn’t hesitate to jump right in. They were happy and well cared for!”
“This is my first time using Rover and I couldn’t of asked for a better experience. Victoria was so amazing and took care of my 6 month old puppy like her own. She would send me photo updates and answer any questions I had. She even helped my pup sleep in his crate overnight which we were struggling at home. I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Laura was great! Rocky had a great time! He's been sleeping since we picked him up, which is shocking for a very active 10 month old. I like that we got to meet her before we left him and she sent pictures and updates while we were gone. She has a large yard for the dogs to play in and takes care of them like they're her own.”
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“Jessica went out of her way to have our Belle for right in. She accommodated very specific dietary needs as well. Even was flexible with pick up time when our flight was delayed. All this over a holiday time period. We are very grateful for the daily pictures which ensured us of Belle’s comfort! The frosting on the cake was a little parting gift she sent is home with - we are very appreciative for all and will definitely use Jessica again!”
“She definitely it’s a 5 stars sitter, she was able to take Max after another sitter from Rover cancelled on us last minute. She sent us photos and videos of Max every day. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends and everyone. I felt safe and confident that Max was having a pleasant stay.”
