“Nancy took great care of our pup for the weekend. She sent lots of updates and pictures. We felt he was in great hands as soon as we left him there which made our weekend away more enjoyable. We would highly recommend her!”


About: Experienced dog owner and sitter. Studied dog psychology to become a good dog parent. Had two female spaniels who passed earlier this year. We used to compete in dog frisbee and hunt. Also have experience working in a grooming salon, as well as walking and boarding various size dogs - from labs and German shepherds to Jack Russel terriers and mini Aussies. Additionally at no cost I can provide basic behavioural training and teach new tricks - I love to communicate with dogs of any breed and move in one rhythm with them. And I really feel their needs and able to connect with dogs of all ages. I can board puppies and older dogs, take them for a walk someplace new and play ball or frisbee. But safety and well-being is my main focus and if your dog doesn't want too much activity, I can provide a more mellow experience, too. Available on weekdays and weekends but please make appointments at least 2 days in advance. I would love to meet your furry friend! I'm working remotely from home part-time, so have lots of time to spend with doggies. I'm available both weekends and weekdays and rarely leave home for more than a couple hours, so your dog won't be alone for too long. I have a fenced backyard and deck, and two mellow spaniels to keep your doggo company. I also have a crate where your pet can rest if needed.
“We are so grateful for Yajaira's care of our little dog. Our dog is shy with new people but within just an hour or two Yajaira had already won her over, taken her for a walk and sent photos of our little dog relaxing in the house. We loved getting the cute photos and updates while we were away. Yajaira has excellent communication and it's no wonder why she has many 5-star reviews from pet parents. We'll gladly book with her again when we need a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Yajaira!”

“Susie was very informative, responsive and kind. She sent lots of pictures and updates which helped feeling comfortable with a new sitter for my grandpup. Milo was very well taken care of and we already have her booked for upcoming dates. I strongly recommend her to sit, walk or care for your pet.”

“Wow simply amazing. Meghan is so kind and took incredible care of my dog Luna. I received multiple updates with photos and it brought me peace of mind since this was my first Rover experience. She took her on several walks and made Luna feel comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Meghan and I’m incredibly thankful she was able to watch Luna on such short notice.”

“I am so glad we chose to board our dog with Shannon! She was very responsive and sent us daily photos of our pup with updates throughout her stay. My dog was very comfortable and felt right at home. She was so happy and attached to Shannon when I picked her up. We will definitely be reaching back out for future dog sitting needs!”


“Teresa was so kind and energetic. She sent us pictures of Otoro the whole time we were gone - he went to walks and hikes and played and came back tired (in the best way!) I will definitely be booking with Teresa again the next time we are looking for someone to hang out with Otoro!”

“Jenna took such good care of my dog while I traveled for the weekend! She was great about sending me lots of updates, confirming that he ate his medications, and giving him walks. My dog looked very cozy and happy in all the photos that were shared!”

“Valentina and her crew (her kids and three little dog ladies) watched over my 17 year old Jack Russell Terrier Malcolm. My guy has moderate canine dementia with separation anxiety but he was completely fine with his new buds. I am grateful this worked out so well as I'll do anything to make sure Malcolm is content which was the case under Valentina's loving care.”

“We are so lucky anytime we can leave our dog Juni with Tyler! She’s so responsive and sweet and takes great care of Juni. I feel like our dog is in safe hands which is a huge relief when we are leaving town. will def book again!”

“We are so happy, or, more importantly, Falafel is so happy with Kathleen and her family. She is great with accommodating us and sends lots of super cute pics and videos. He really seems to have a nice time there and he comes home relaxed and happy. Thanks so much, Kathleen☺️”

“Bianca was super flexible and patience with my dogs. We had two dogs that don’t get along well with one another and she graciously was willing to host both dogs. The dogs came back happy and slept as soon as they came home! My dogs have never been officially dog sat before so she made us feel comfortable and at ease while she was dog sitting. Highly recommend booking with her!”

“I am so excited to have found Kara! Finding a great dog sitter who is comfortable taking my 100 lbs. Newfie mix is no easy feat, let alone one that is local to the SC Mountains! My Leeloo was absolutely spoiled with daily pack hikes in the redwoods and lots of puppy rumbles. Kara even helped work on her off-leash recall! She shared daily videos of their redwood romps and I picked up a very happy, very tired pup. We will definitely be booking with Kara whenever we can't bring our pups with us on trips.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“We were very happy with Michael and his wife. They are so sweet and kept in touch about our dog sailor while we were away. We will definitely use them again to watch our little guy.”

“Julia was amazing! We received daily updates and photos. Harry quickly adapted to Julia's home. He went on daily excursions and was given lots of affection, scratches, pets, and companionship. Harry was clearly at ease when we picked him up. Highly recommend Julia!”

“Elizabeth is great! Always responsive and keeps me up to date how my doggie is doing. She was able to help me out of a jam where an incident caused me to run over my time to pick up. She worked with me and made sure everything was okay. I’ll be using her again. Recommended 10/10”

“Marina was a wonderful dog sitter for my baby! We were regularly updated with pictures and texts! I will be sure to use Marina anytime we visit Santa Cruz!! I felt like my family was watching my dog, she is beyond amazing!”

“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”

“Cabe helped us feel reassured the minute he met our cats. He was very sweet with them and exhibited a lot of knowledge around cats’ body language and boundaries. One of our cats can be slow to trust and he completely won her over. He sent regular updates and cute pictures which helped put our minds at ease. We were very happy to have had Cabe watch our cats.”

“Jenni was just wonderful and did a great job taking care of our kitties for 5 days. She made 2 very nervous cat parents feel ok about taking a trip knowing that they were in good hands 🙌🏻 😊”

About: Hi, I'm Jenn! Having six years of experience as a vet tech, six years of experience caring for pets professionally, and caring for my personal furry companions animals for over 6o years, I bring an exceptional blend of experience, care, and responsibility to my pet care. I have a huge heart for cats and dogs and love to see them happy in their environment. My sensitive nature allows me to be highly attuned to animals and their needs. Others have often commented on my ability to anticipate the needs of people and animals before they are aware of them. I believe in the health and wellbeing of all living things. When your animal is under my care, you can be assured they are receiving the nurturing and care they deserve. I am available for walking, visits, boarding, and more. Please inquire for your particular needs and desires for your pet in your absence. I would be happy to keep your pet loved and safe while you are away. Injections, special needs, training/rehabilitation I am in a very open and expansive time currently in life. I am widely available round the clock for your pets needs. I am available daytime, evenings, and weekends. I do not have a fenced yard on the property I live on in the country, so when boarding with me, dogs will be on leash when outdoors. They will enjoy the many walks they will have around here. When at your home, I take care of your fur baby and belongs with the utmost respect and safety.

“Willow did a great job! Every visit she was prompt and sent a very detailed card every time so I knew my kitty was in a good hands! I will definitely rebook Willow for her services whenever I need her again!”

“My dog felt very comfortable around Adam, who was really accommodating in coming on short-notice and doing a quick play session to introduce himself to Champ. Adam was also very understanding about giving me updates on my dog throughout his visit. This was the first time my dog was left with someone else in months, and am glad it was with someone I felt I could trust!”

“Julia was amazing! Super communicative and flexible. She watched my two cats and was very patient with their shyness and did everything they needed to be comfortable while I was away. Would absolutely book her again!”

“Cody is an awesome pet sitter! My cats adore him, and I feel completely comfortable leaving them in his care. I know he’ll provide them with tons of love and attention, and keep up with their schedule perfectly. He’s super reliable and follows instructions well. I fully trust him to care for my kitties and my home while I’m away, and it brings me so much peace of mind to know he’s there! Thank you, Cody! You’re the best!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for many years! Not only do you want someone responsible with your animals but you need someone who will make them feel loved while you’re away ☺️ I love all fur baby’s like if they were my own I’m a property care taker and have a very flexible schedule. Message me to arrange something, I’m more than happy to help any time of the day I respect the rules of your home and will always ensure your pets safety.

“Jasmine was fantastic with my cat. She’s a great communicator, took care of my pet and was very sensitive to my needs and requests. I will definitely ask for her to care for my pets again.”

“Thank you, Trina for taking such great care of my kitty! You did a great job of giving her love (tho she is a little shy), food, water and litter clean and keeping me updated.”

“Tyler was great with our cat Sebastian! She communicated really well, spent time giving the little guy lots of love, and generally just left us feeling confident that he was in good hands and happy. We'll definitely reach out to her next time we need help with our little guy.”


About: I've owned cats for as long as I can remember, and am passionate about taking care of them. They have always been my favorite animal- so much so that I am full of so many fun facts about cats. I love spending time with kitties of any age, and have experience caring for very young kittens, seniors, and cats with medical conditions like FIV. I spent much of my time in high school cat sitting for my community, and want to extend that to my college life! I live with three beautiful girls (two of which are mine, one is my roommate's baby) and I love them to death!

About: I am an animal lover who believes pet care should be equal parts adventure, comfort, and genuine connection. I have a special knack for cats, even the shy or skittish ones who usually keep their distance. More often than not, they end up curled up beside me. I truly love animals and treat every dog and cat in my care as if they were my own, making sure they feel loved, exercised, and completely comfortable while you are away.

“Haley is so great and does such a wonderful job watching our cat (Tiny). This our second time booking with Haley and she is very nice, communicative, and easy to work with. We will definitely be booking with Haley in the future any time we have to leave Tiny at home.”


“It's so nice to be able to totally trust Luna with my two Maine Coon cats. Her level of care along with her professionalism is exceptional. While I'm on vacation I get her photo/video updates. My cats always seem relaxed with her. When I get home from vacation I can see it around my house. The clean floor around their food dishes. The well kept litter box area. Well fed and happy cats. She's always sure to contact me with any updates. I would heartily recommend her to any potential clients. I'm happy to have her in my cat's lives.”

About: Hi! My name is Nikki, I am a student at UCSC from Southern California and have a lot of experience with many different animals. Here in Santa Cruz I have a 3 year old cat named Mr. Whiskers. At home in Socal I also have a 13 year old standard poodle, a 13 year old yorkie-poo, a 5 year old miniature labradoodle, and a 1 year old cat (along with a tortoise and some other exotic pets!). I have always loved dog-sitting for my neighbors, with breeds including german shepherds, golden retrievers, labs, doodles, jack russel's, and other mixed breeds. I'd been consistently dog-sitting for 4 years until I took a break being in Santa Cruz, since my client base is in Socal, but have committed myself to caring for my own cat and my friend's pets when they are out of town. When it comes to caring for your pet, I will dedicate just as much love and care as I do my own! Additionally, my cat has unfortunately had to deal with some urinary issues causing him to be on a permanent urinary prescription diet and having to take meds during his flare-ups. Because of this, I completely understand the struggles of caring for a loved pet with health issues. It has allowed me to be very comfortable with administering both pill and liquid forms of medication to pets and punctual with needed times of administration. I am a full-time student so I provide drop ins before and after my classes and work around school schedule. I'm available on all days in the morning and evening and afternoons on all days except tuesdays and thursdays. When doing drop-ins, I would love to take care of your fur babies for enrichment, feeding, playing, and anything you already do with them that helps them feel happy and comfortable! I am currently a full-time student but my classes are very bunched together so I have plenty of time before and after classes to give love to your pets! I am super flexible with the environment that I am in to care for your pets and want them to feel as comfortable as possible while their owners are gone. I have no problem following very specific routines for your pet's needs!

I love big dogs and small dogs and pride myself in being extremely patient. I realize that every dog has their own personality and some take more time to warm up to people and new places. I will be more than happy to provide pictures or updates during my visit with your pup. Your dogs safety and care is my number one concern.

“Yu took amazing care of Cleo as if she were her own! She sent me regular updates and took her to the park to play fetch and on walks. Cleo was very tired and happy when I picked her up!”

About: I grew up in the country with many different animals, mostly rescues. I am very familiar and comfortable with caring for and training many different animals. I currently do independent work dictated by my own schedule. I am usually pretty flexible and able to take last minute requests for walks, pet care and training. I don't offer pet care in my home but I try to accommodate the unique needs of every animal with sensitivity and compassion. I'm very used to a wide range of animals, mostly rescues and some formerly abused animals.

About: (I go by Sam!) I’ve grown up taking care of my own and family friend’s cats, small to medium-large dogs, chickens, guinea pigs, hamsters, and rabbits. Often multiple at one time. The bond with animal is unlike any other! I’ve also spent time working in gardens, I can take care of chickens as well as houseplants along with animals. Here with me for college are my two cats Jinkies and Pugsly—one of whom I’m currently training to go on walks! I am currently not working but a full time student as ucsc. I drive and have a large car I’m comfortable transporting car trained animals in. I’m free most afternoons except Tuesday and Thursday. I cannot offer in home care, but I am happy to take care of your animals at your home or enjoy quality outdoor time with them.

About: Hi everyone! I’m just starting out on Rover but I’ve been a dog lover since day one. I have experience with dogs both big and small, in urban landscapes and suburban. I am attuned to their varying levels of energy, motivations, and comforts, all of which lets me form a quick bond with them! I’m a full time student at the UC, and work a part time job. Unfortunately, our hours at work were cut so until September, my schedule is relatively light! College dorms and apartments dont exactly have an abundance of dogs so I’ve been lacking in animal love. I hope to get my fill on Rover! My dogs have always been a part of the family, so that’s how I treat them! On my dog walks, I like to let them sniff all they want (but no eating!), I have no problem jogging if they’ve got some zoomies, and above all, I just want them to feel satisfied and ready to rest when they return home. I respect dogs as much as I respect people!
“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”

“I'm incredibly grateful for Luna's exceptional care of our beloved pooch while we were away for the day. From the moment they met, it was evident that Luna and our dog formed an instant bond. Their time together seemed nothing short of delightful, and I was thoroughly impressed by Luna's professionalism and evident passion for animals. Meeting her was a pleasure, and I'm eagerly anticipating the opportunity to enlist her services again in the future.”


About: My first dogs were a Boerboel and a Great Dane. Since my husband is allergic, we now focus on non-shedding dogs. and were blessed to spend 2 wonderful years with our furbaby Thando. Thando was a poodle mix and suffered from MegaE and a number of other issues that led to him spending the last 6 months of his life with a feeding tube. While caring for a special needs dog was new for us, it has been the biggest blessing in our lives. We learned to enjoy each moment - running on the beach, tube-feeding at a winery, holding our furbaby up for long periods of time against regurgitation. After Mr T’s passing, we adopted a new furbaby into our family, Fritz. He is also a poodle and potentially Maltese mix who loves all dogs and people. About 8 months later, we adopted a sister for Fritz, Cleo. Cleo was already four years old when we adopted her but she is very playful and loves to wrestle with Fritz- even though she is three times his size. They are crazy about each other and have become inseparable. We love all sizes and ages of dogs, and would be happy to take your dog running or just chilling on the couch with us. We have a small fenced yard with a sandbox that we specially built for a home-based "dog beach", we are familiar with dog-friendly hikes, parks, restaurants and beaches in the area, and we would make your dog a part of our family for their stay. We'd love to meet you and your furbaby. I am home full-time with our two dogs (9 & 11 years) and two kids when they are not in school. We go for walks in the neighborhood or on the beach. I only look after dogs in my home and we only take non-shedding dogs. They become part of our family of two adults, two kids and two dogs.
“Amanda was amazing with my dog, Luna. She took her on long walks and Luna came back tired and a very happy camper. It’s clear that Amanda is wonderful with dogs and genuinely cares about them. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

“We are so grateful for Yajaira's care of our little dog. Our dog is shy with new people but within just an hour or two Yajaira had already won her over, taken her for a walk and sent photos of our little dog relaxing in the house. We loved getting the cute photos and updates while we were away. Yajaira has excellent communication and it's no wonder why she has many 5-star reviews from pet parents. We'll gladly book with her again when we need a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Yajaira!”

“Wow simply amazing. Meghan is so kind and took incredible care of my dog Luna. I received multiple updates with photos and it brought me peace of mind since this was my first Rover experience. She took her on several walks and made Luna feel comfortable. I would absolutely recommend Meghan and I’m incredibly thankful she was able to watch Luna on such short notice.”

“I am so glad we chose to board our dog with Shannon! She was very responsive and sent us daily photos of our pup with updates throughout her stay. My dog was very comfortable and felt right at home. She was so happy and attached to Shannon when I picked her up. We will definitely be reaching back out for future dog sitting needs!”


“Teresa was so kind and energetic. She sent us pictures of Otoro the whole time we were gone - he went to walks and hikes and played and came back tired (in the best way!) I will definitely be booking with Teresa again the next time we are looking for someone to hang out with Otoro!”

“Jenna took such good care of my dog while I traveled for the weekend! She was great about sending me lots of updates, confirming that he ate his medications, and giving him walks. My dog looked very cozy and happy in all the photos that were shared!”

“Valentina and her crew (her kids and three little dog ladies) watched over my 17 year old Jack Russell Terrier Malcolm. My guy has moderate canine dementia with separation anxiety but he was completely fine with his new buds. I am grateful this worked out so well as I'll do anything to make sure Malcolm is content which was the case under Valentina's loving care.”

“We are so lucky anytime we can leave our dog Juni with Tyler! She’s so responsive and sweet and takes great care of Juni. I feel like our dog is in safe hands which is a huge relief when we are leaving town. will def book again!”

“We are so happy, or, more importantly, Falafel is so happy with Kathleen and her family. She is great with accommodating us and sends lots of super cute pics and videos. He really seems to have a nice time there and he comes home relaxed and happy. Thanks so much, Kathleen☺️”

“Bianca was super flexible and patience with my dogs. We had two dogs that don’t get along well with one another and she graciously was willing to host both dogs. The dogs came back happy and slept as soon as they came home! My dogs have never been officially dog sat before so she made us feel comfortable and at ease while she was dog sitting. Highly recommend booking with her!”

“I am so excited to have found Kara! Finding a great dog sitter who is comfortable taking my 100 lbs. Newfie mix is no easy feat, let alone one that is local to the SC Mountains! My Leeloo was absolutely spoiled with daily pack hikes in the redwoods and lots of puppy rumbles. Kara even helped work on her off-leash recall! She shared daily videos of their redwood romps and I picked up a very happy, very tired pup. We will definitely be booking with Kara whenever we can't bring our pups with us on trips.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life for 30 years. I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family for over 20 years. My own dogs have graduated top of their class in puppy training school. I currently work from home, so I can arrange my schedule to make sure dogs in my care get all the love, affection, and attention they need and deserve. I have a small fenced in yard, good for small and medium dogs. My dog is friendly and even shares some toys. I can crate your dog if preferred. I am also within walking distance to a dog park, and an easy drive to dog beaches
“Julia was amazing! We received daily updates and photos. Harry quickly adapted to Julia's home. He went on daily excursions and was given lots of affection, scratches, pets, and companionship. Harry was clearly at ease when we picked him up. Highly recommend Julia!”

“Marina was a wonderful dog sitter for my baby! We were regularly updated with pictures and texts! I will be sure to use Marina anytime we visit Santa Cruz!! I felt like my family was watching my dog, she is beyond amazing!”

“We’ve never left our dog with anyone but immediate family and never with anyone for 12 days. Anusha managed our high energy dog perfectly and developed a rapport with him right away. She also managed my own anxiety by sending photos and videos twice daily to show me that our dog was relaxed and happy in her care. I can’t thank her enough for the care and attention she provided.”


“Jai was absolutely incredible! Super cool with picking up our request last minute. Great with updates that our dog was having a blast (lots and lots of fetch), and showed such genuine love and care. We’ll definitely hit you up next time we’re in Santa Cruz!”

“Lauren was great! She was flexible, communicative, and went out of her way to help us out by picking Bodhi up from our house. Will definitely reach out again next time we go out of town!”

“Qi was great! My dog Ellie had an awesome stay with her! She boarded there for about two weeks, and Qi kept us updated the whole time with pictures and messages, which we really appreciated. She was also super responsive anytime we had questions. When I dropped Ellie off, Qi gave me a quick rundown of what her days would look like, which helped a lot. I also liked that she took a thoughtful approach to introducing Ellie to the other dogs and let me see how they interacted before I left. Overall, really smooth experience and I’d definitely book with Qi again!”

“Great experience! Lourdes is very responsive and attentive to your dog’s needs! We got lots of pictures and updates throughout our dogs stay and even got a toy ? to take home with us! Will definitely be coming back! Lourdes lives in very quiet private community with lots of areas to walk dogs and enjoy nature!”
