“Very friendly and sent updates and pics of our doggies while we were away and missing them. She went out of her way to make them food when they weren't eating what I brought for them. Highly recommend!”
“We had a wonderful experience with them as Cooper’s sitter. They were very responsive throughout the stay and shared pictures regularly, which gave us great peace of mind. Cooper got plenty of exercise and fun trips to the dog park, and it truly seemed like he felt right at home. They were also very flexible and accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated. We would definitely consider booking with them again and highly recommend their care! 🐶”
“My dog Duke had a great time with JJ and Family. JJ sent me plenty of pictures throughout the day to let me know how Duke was doing. She made sure Duke had toys to play with. Duke had a fun day full of playtime with the family dog. Duke can be very high energy, but JJ and her family did a really great job at taking care of him for me.”
“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“My senior dog was really well taken care of by Alexis and Melisa. I loved that they sent me photos several times a day and kept us updated with meals and daily activities.”
“Andrew and Karrie were absolutely amazing with our Kali during her first overnight stay. From the start, they were kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kali came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are absolutely delighted with the whole experience and couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend Andrew and Karrie to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog sitters!”
“We had a wonderful experience leaving our dog Happy, a Chiweenie (Dachshund–Chihuahua mix), with Ms.Li. From the very beginning, communication was great and reassuring. The sitter shared daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us. Happy always looked relaxed, comfortable, and happy, and it was clear he was receiving genuine care and attention. Thanks to this, we were able to fully enjoy our time away without any stress or worries. We are very satisfied and would highly recommend Ms.Li to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog”
“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Ashley and her family were more than accommodating for Murphy and I almost felt guilty picking him up. He fell in love with their dogs especially Gus who he played with in the backyard running laps until exhaustion. He made himself right at home and they treated him like part of the family. I couldn’t imagine anyone else’s watching Murphy while I’m in the area.”
“An absolute 5-star experience! I left my dog with Shahrzad for a week while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier. Her home is beautiful and the facilities are fantastic-she even has her backyard sectioned off safely for small and big dogs. I received photos and videos every single day, which gave me total peace of mind. Shahrzad didn't just watch my dog; she kept them active with morning walks, playtime, and even a little bit of training. My dog came back home happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I highly recommend Shahrzad's boarding services and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Rachel and Preston were amazing dog sitters! They texted me daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. During the stay, my one-year-old dog and their dog became best friends, and it was clear my dog was having the best time and receiving lots of love and attention. I feel so lucky to have found the best care for my dog, and I will definitely use their services again!”
“Kristin was a great caregiver for our 11 year old dog who tends to be very anxious when she’s in a new environment. She was very caring and nurturing with our girl and sent us updates and pictures while we were away. We highly recommend her to care for your fur baby!”
“Jin and Brian were the absolute sweetest, they were super helpful and accommodating. They consistently sent pictures and videos and kept me updated. Kitty enjoyed her time so much she didn’t want to leave! 😂 Overall wonderful experience, I felt very relaxed knowing Kitty was in great hands 🐾”
“Dawn & her family were incredible! She was able to accommodate a last minute schedule change & saved our weekend getaway. Emmett had so much fun with her dog as well & came home ready to sleep the rest of the day away. I would highly recommend her to any pet owners who need a sitter.”
“This was our first time leaving Lilo, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! We were a little nervous at first, but Susana quickly put us at ease with regular updates, adorable photos, and so much love, personalized care and attention for our pup. It gave us total peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands. She truly went above and beyond, and we’re incredibly grateful. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: For us, this isn’t just dog sitting it’s a second home. We don’t treat dogs like bookings or numbers. Every dog that stays with us becomes part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. We provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable, especially those who may be shy or adjusting to a new place. We’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for the past three years, with stays ranging from one week to as long as two months. We’re happy to provide recommendations if needed. We also have a friendly 5-year-old mini Goldendoodle mix at home, so your dog will always have a companion to play with and feel at ease. We keep owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you’ll always have peace of mind while you’re away. What truly sets us apart is the consistency and genuine care. We treat every dog like our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine, as we’re home most of the time and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. We plan our schedule around their needs, including regular potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and rest. Our whole family is involved in caring for the dogs. We have a 24-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter, so there’s almost always someone at home to provide attention, supervision, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and we make sure they feel included in our day-to-day activities. Whether it’s relaxing indoors, supervised outdoor time, or just being nearby, they’re always cared for and watched over. On a weekly basis, we keep things consistent so dogs can settle into a routine quickly, which helps them feel comfortable and secure during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. In our home, we provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. We primarily care for small to medium-sized dogs, allowing us to maintain a calm, safe, and more personalized setting. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so we can care for them accordingly. We supervise dogs closely throughout the day and never leave them unattended for long periods. Our home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy companionship, consistency, and a quieter environment. We’re experienced with longer stays, ranging from one week to as long as two months, and we help dogs settle in comfortably as if they’re part of the family. We’re also comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering time-sensitive medication, including an 11-year-old Maltese we regularly care for who requires medication twice daily. We follow all feeding instructions carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and maintain a consistent schedule for potty breaks, playtime, and rest. If needed, we can separate dogs to keep everyone safe and stress-free. Communication is very important to us, so we provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Above all, we offer a true home environment with consistent, attentive care—we treat every dog like our own.

About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals for years. I spent a few years in NYC hopping around the city caring for cats in particular, but I have a lot of dogwalking experience as well. I am in school and work part time but have some mornings and nights and certain full days free. Most available for dog walks and drop-ins, but some overnights as well. I will not be able to provide at home or boarding services, but I'd love to drop in or take your dog for a walk!
“Caleb was a wonderful host for my two cats, Rory and Sebastian. He was very communicative and sent frequent updates while we were away. Pick up and drop off was easy as well. We will definitely be booking again. Thanks Caleb!”
About: I've had cats since I was 3. I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I'm that one friend/family member that can pick up your cat and hold like a baby, that you said won't let anyone go near him😆 I love animals in general, but cats have special minds and spirits. My 1st cat was a full breed Siamese named Simon. All of the others have been rescues. Butters is pictured here with my son and his dog Baron, also a rescue. We call them the Orangie Twins. With rescues I've dealt with my fair share of various issues than can come with rescues. I spent a year correcting Butters' eating issues. In all of my years with fur babies, I have seen it all and cleaned it all! I've always had a home where cats and dogs lived cohesively while playing with each other, stealing each other's toys and knowing they we are all a family. I'm happy to take care of any special needs of your cat babies. They are all unique in their own ways. I have a spare bedroom if you need me to keep your babies separate from others. Currently, I have one dog who is cordoned off in his own space. I am happy to go to your place to catsit or to check in on them, give them some lovings, playtime, feed and water and clean up any messes and litter boxes. Anything else you need, just let me know. Warmest, Melissa

About: I have hands-on experience caring for cats of different ages and personalities, including shy, senior, and energetic cats. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, giving lots of playtime, and making sure cats feel calm and safe in their home environment. I pay close attention to behavior and health so I can quickly notice if something seems off. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes, so I’m patient and gentle to help them feel comfortable while their owners are away.
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart, and I understand that every cat has their own unique personality and comfort level. I’m patient, attentive, and experienced with cats of all temperaments, including shy, playful, senior, and affectionate cats. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’m also happy to provide playtime, cuddles, feeding, litter box cleaning, medication administration if needed, and daily photo updates for peace of mind.
About: Two years ago I adopted my loving cat, who turned out to be pregnant a few months after having her. I had the unique experience of helping her safely deliver and care for her kittens. Additionally, I have also cat sat for a family friend of mine who’s behavior is a lot different from my own cat. Therefore in my experience, I’ve had to understand different cat and kitten behaviors really well up to this point.
About: I have a lot of experience watching cats, I’ve pet sit for cats numerous times, I’ve even boarded my friend’s cat for 8 months while she was deployed. I’ve lived in multiple houses with cats which I’ve helped care for. My partner has 2 cats that I always look towards to seeing when I visit her in the UK.
About: I got my first kitty was when I was about 10 years old and he lived to be 16 years old🤍 I now have an indoor, white Siberian named Hamlet and 5 male tabbies around 1 yrs old who live & work as outdoor/indoor cats. I’m always making sure to take extra care of all my animals & make sure they receive copious amounts of love :)
About: I have 8+ years experience owning and caring for cats! Most recently I pet sit regularly for 2 indoor cats for over a year. This included meals, play time, litter box clean out and refresh and lots of clean up! I have additional experience giving insulin shots and nail trimming. I have a profound love for all animals especially cats. I understand when they need space and when they’re wanting more attention. I understand it’s sometimes a little tougher for cats to warm up to new people so I am happy to be your cats patient new sitter and wait hand and foot on any of their needs:)
“This was our first experience with hiring a cat drop-in sitter. Ashley was dependable and personable, with tons of cat experience. We hit the jackpot! She kept us informed about our kitty children with texts and pictures. She went beyond the call of duty to help us out with an unexpected pest problem. It was great piece of mind knowing she was checking in on our felines.”
“What can I say? Mya was great in every way. She sent us daily pics and updates, was very helpful when we came with the cats and again when we picked them up. She has a very pleasant personality and we won't hesitate to use her again and recommend her to our friends.”
About: I grew up with cats and kittens and have always found my way back to kitty sitting. I am very happy to cat and kitten sit, whether they're a lap cat or fiercely independent. More than happy to feed, play with, keep them company and be on litter duty when watching them for extended periods of time.
About: I’ve always loved animals and have been house sitting as well as animal sitting for 11 years I’ve watched groups as big as 6 and less as well my family at one pint had 2 cats 2 German Shepard’s and a multipoo now we have 2 terriers a multipoo and 1 Shepard. I love all animals genuinely and trust me when i say they’ll always receive all of my attention and care! I’m also a certified security guard so please trust that safety is number one always! I have open availability and am flexible and willing to do multiple nights as well as multiple dogs don’t hesitate to contact me I love cats as well and am available for that as well. I will be available for over night stays or to watch them during the day I would be able to provide runs walks and would be giving them my full attention in my apartment complex there will be a dog park as we as many popular hiking trials as far as their food I would be taking notes as for what you would like me to provide and for the time they usually eat I know each animal is different but they will receive nothing but love when in my care.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, especially when it comes to cats. I grew up in a household that always had multiple cats. I just recently moved from my parents house where we had four, including a rescue I brought back from an overseas deployment. I also have experience caring for senior pets, including my childhood pet, a 14 year old Siamese in her final years, where I provided comfort, medication support, and close monitoring. I’ve fostered multiple litters of kittens, including bottle feeding, scheduled care, and neonatal support (including stimulation for bathroom and feeding routines), so I’m very comfortable with young or high needs animals. I also have hands on experience caring for dogs, including a family chocolate lab that I regularly walked, took on beach trips, transported safely in my vehicle, and maintained consistent feeding and exercise routines for. I’m comfortable managing leash behavior, high energy dogs, and ensuring pets get both physical activity and attention. What sets me apart is my genuine compassion and attentiveness. I treat every pet like my own and take the time to understand their personality, needs, and comfort level. Treating any animal I encounter humanely is my calling. It is humans responsibility to care for them. What sets me apart is my expert knowledge and lifelong experience with all sorts of kitties and situations. They are such a special species and I know how to approach them with the care they need.

About: I have over 10 years of experience with dog sitting, helping family and friends’ dogs. I have two dogs myself, a pug and a terrier mixed. They are both well behaved and trained, they love having friends over. I do work on the weekdays, but weekends are usually free with the dogs and kids at home. We love to take them for a long walk around the neighborhood. I have a fenced in backyard and front yard, my dogs love it. It will be great for many more friends to join during the weekends.
About: Hello! Dog dad of two frenchies here. I have taken care of dogs since I was 7. I am very familiar with brachiocephalic (short muzzled) dogs. But any type is welcome! I currently work from home 24/7 and will have plenty of time with your pup. My home is also a step away from the park so your pup will have a lot of exercise. I am available weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced yard to run and play and have two french bulldogs to keep them company. I am also a step away from a park for walking and exercise.
“My baby Makana had a great time at JJ’s house.. Though we didn’t see the host’s interior of the house where the pets are, the pictures she had sent looked clean and safe.. It’s Makana’s first time to socialize with 2 dogs since she turned 2 yrs old due to some health issues when she’s a pup. We thought it’s time for her to explore and find out if she is well adjusted now that she’s an adult.She is as expected to be a little shy but was able to adapt and became comfortable. She is tired and pretty happy bec she had a play date with Zuri ( the host’s furbaby) and another furbaby. I’m glad that JJ has been sending pic and videos of our baby’s socialization activities and so nice of their son to play with the FBabies.. Thank you and will definitely recommend her services.”
“Melisa was amazing, offered to even meet prior to the arrangement and took wonderful care of our pup. We will be using her in the future, glad we found her. Very responsive and flexible.”
“Fiona took such great care of my dog Teddy! She made sure to update us by sending lots of photos and videos which I really appreciate. I could tell Teddy felt very comfortable at her place. Thank you again! I highly recommend Fiona to take care of your fur babies!”
“Andrew and Karrie are kind, professional and treat your pets like their own. They address any concerns that you have and take their services seriously. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is particular about who watches their pets.”
About: I have over 30 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. In my early years, I trained working for border service, which gave me strong skills in discipline, behavior understanding, and dog communication. Today, our family has three dogs of our own; one senior dog ( 8 years old ), one young and active dog ( 2 years old), and one rescue dog ( approximately 3 years old). All of them are Friendly, well- socialized , and non-aggressive. My daughter and i truly love dogs and treat every pet as part of our family. We provide a safe, calm, and caring environment, whether it's for boarding or daily walks. We are attentive to each dog's need, routines, and personality. I am home full-time, so your dog. I work from home, so your dog will always have attention and care. In the morning, my daughter walks he dogs before school. During the day, I provide walks, playtime, and supervision. In the evening, we usually walk together as a family. We have a safe and comfortable home for dogs. Our dogs are friendly and well-socialized. I always supervise interactions and make sure every dog feels calm and secure. If needed, I can separate dogs to ensure safety and comfort.
“We needed a dog sitter asap while we got our kitchen demolished for renovation. Our 9 month old Shepherd mix had a great time. He played with her dog, he was walked and he took naps throughout the day. I was updated with pictures and videos. It assured our family to know he was in good hands. Thank you so much Elena ❤️ Look forward to bringing our puppy back again when we need your services.”
“Ilona has been great with our dog! She was recommended to us by a fellow dog parent and we’re very thankful for Ilona - she takes great care of our dog, sends us a detailed care information after each visit, and the kids are so good with our dog as well. Bonus that Ilona is close to our home! Her communication is quick and is flexible when our pick up and drop off times need to shift on short notice.”
“I was SO pleased with Thomas. My “dog” which was actually a 6 week old lamb, was well cared for. He was feed, and diaper was always dry when I picked him up. He sent me pictures of Winnie as well, and he was given lots of attention by Thomas and his adorable kids. I’d highly recommend to try him out. He was very accommodating, flexible, and such a pleasant person.”
“Svitlana and Dmitriy were amazing sitters for my dog, Max! From the beginning, their communication was excellent—they took the time to understand my requirements and make sure Max would feel comfortable. They sent a couple of videos during his stay, which really helped me feel at ease. It was Max’s first time boarding, and they handled his anxiety with such patience and care. When I picked him up, he was happy and relaxed. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind and reliable sitters!”
“Rachel & Demetra took really good care of Bear! Bear seemed super excited to be back with them on the second day so I know he’s in good hands! We will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Ashley was very communicative and sent updates throughout Millie’s stay with her which made us feel very comfortable. She knew very well how to read her body language and did a great job getting her to be comfortable around other dogs.”
About: I have had dogs since my college years. I love animals. I treat them as part of family. Although I no longer have my pup, She was spoiled! She was bathed, fed, walked and has all her needs met. I would take her hiking with me sometimes and she would love it. I really strive to provide a safe and comfortable experience for each pet in my care. I do this by following any special care instructions given carefully and doing my best to keep each pet as close to their normal schedule. I will treat your baby as if she was part of my family. Thank you for considering me to care for your pet(s). I work from home therefore I am able to walk, feed, play and pay attention to your baby. My weekend are usually free and if not I can work around for when I am needed. I live in a home with a huge gated backyard. There is a lot of grass. I can take for a walk around my area and walk to our community park for some extra exercise.
“Christopher was wonderful with our boy. When it was time to come home, instead of being ready to leave he rolled over for a belly rub. My doggie is happy and so are we. Thank you so much.”
“Katie and her cute kids took great care of Buddy for a day. He played with them and their nice dog and had a great time in their big yard. They even took him for a walk and posted some sweet photos. I'm so glad and thankful to have had such great care for Buddy while we were busy all day!”
About: What sets me apart is the amount of attention and care I’m able to give because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to spend more time with pets throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I’m patient, attentive, and focus on making pets feel comfortable and safe in their environment. I’m also careful to follow each owner’s instructions closely so their pet’s routine stays consistent. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different ages, including playful young pets that need extra attention and senior pets that may need a calmer, gentler approach. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, including feeding, walks, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I enjoy taking short breaks to spend time with pets, making sure they get exercise, stimulation, and companionship. Since I’m home most of the day, I’m able to keep a close eye on them and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow the owner’s instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and affection. For cats, I keep litter boxes clean and give them calm interaction or play depending on their personality. I also pay attention to their behavior and well-being so I can quickly notice if anything seems unusual. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I’ve been walking and taking care of my own very active dog Robin for nine years and my other dog Lady for seven. I love animals and am studying to be a veterinary technician, but in the meantime I’d love more experience caring for pets. I currently work full-time and am looking to gain more experience working with animals in my spare time. I’m available all day on Thursdays and Saturdays as well as weekdays after 3:00 PM. I have two active dogs and love to walk them until they tire out. I like to stay active so I’ll go as long as needed to help expel your dog’s energy.
About: I’ve been animal-obsessed forever. I briefly planned to be a vet… until I discovered how temperatures are taken and quickly pivoted to professional pet spoiler. I’m the friend everyone calls for reliable dog sitting and cat sitting, and I treat every pet like my own (nicknames absolutely included). I have hands-on experience with puppies, senior dogs, shy cats, and multi-pet households. I’m attentive to routines, respectful of your house rules, and big on clear communication with photo and video updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. After fostering a dozen pups, I had my first foster fail in 2014 when Stevie came home for good. He’s now my geriatric chihuahua, living his best life fueled by naps, Greenies, and prime sunbathing real estate. Your pet will get the same loving, attentive care! Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible, work-from-home schedule much of the week, which allows me to give pets in my care plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I’m thoughtful about structuring my time around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and check-ins, and I always aim to keep each pet on their normal routine to minimize stress. Because I share my home with a senior chihuahua, I’m especially attuned to comfort, safety, and gentle care. Whether it’s daily walks, medication, or extra cuddle time, I build pet care into my week so every animal gets reliable, loving attention. I keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I carefully follow all feeding, walk, medication, and care instructions — right down to favorite toys and nicknames. I treat every client’s home with great respect and always keep things clean and tidy. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, and I stay very attentive to your pet’s comfort, safety, and energy level. With my fostering experience and senior pet background, I’m patient, observant, and quick to flag anything that seems off. My goal is simple: you come home to a happy pet and a home exactly as you left it.
About: I have a lot of experience pet sitting, I’ve done it for neighbors as a kid and multiple times for extended periods for friends while I was in the Air Force. I have no pets currently but I’ve lived in multiple houses with both cats and dogs and am experienced in caring for both. I’m currently taking a break from school for summer, and am only planning to do self-scheduled work, so until the end of June I can freely plan my schedule around any pet care needs. My main goal would to be to get detailed information prior to the care of your pets’ specific schedule and needs. I’ll follow any specific instructions given to the letter. Otherwise, I’d ensure they get daily walks and activity.
About: My family and I have been pet sitting for almost 3-4 years now. And I am now moving into my own business where I travel to clients houses for pet sitting! I've taken care of pets all ages and sizes and have had amazing experiences and created so many new bonds and friendships with pets and their owners! I am a college athlete so sometimes my schedule can get very busy during the winter but, I am mostly free on weekends. Any further scheduling or dates needed will require messaging me privately. I only travel to clients houses who need sitters within their home. I accommodate to all needs necessary to make sure their pets feel safe and secure while their families are away.

“Sara is an incredibly kind and caring dog lover, taking the time to make sure our dog is happy and getting the exercise she needs. She is extremely personable and easy to work with. We couldn’t ask for a better person to take care of our dog.”
“Caleb was exceptional from booking to taking care of our dog, Sumo! Caleb responds very quickly, which I appreciate. He is very accommodating and kept us updated with our dog throughout the entire time! He played fetch with our dog, and we couldn’t be happier! I will definitely be hiring him again, outstanding job! 👏 Thank you Caleb!!”
“When it came to selecting a dog-walker I got extremely lucky with Maddie. After breaking my ankle I needed someone to walk my dogs right away and Maddie was able to start the next day,. She is on time every day and flexible for a couple time changes I needed. She is excellent with my golden retriever and pug mix. They love Maddie and can’t wait for their daily walks.”
“Steve has a genuine interest in caring for my dog and wants to learn/walk my dog however I instruct him. He showed up willing to learn or follow direction and I am now going to be using him regularly”
About: I have rescued, fostered, saved, nursed to health, and (lightly) trained over 100 dogs and cats. I grew up with small pets and cared for pet rats and mice when young. I started working with wild (feral) cats in college 20 years ago. I have a giant dog, a large dog that can climb/jump walls, a large backyard with extra fencing, and 4 cats (1 senior, 3 juveniles). I've worked with rescue groups for over 20 years with my family, and I foster kittens for the shelters now. Our whole family loves dogs and cats and helps. I've experienced it all, and I am fairly pro at medications. I am a care provider, so I am often available with a flexible schedule. I can visit your home, spend time with pets, or board. I will bend over backwards to make it work, because I understand how much you love your little family members. I know that play, attention, affection, and treats are the best ticket to success with any pet. Dogs tend to gravitate to me (probably because I smell like all of our pets) and I win them over easily. I adore kitties and will be great at respecting your cat's space, letting them come to me if they want, but offering a reassuring voice and presence.
About: I've had cats and dogs my whole life. I have experience with rescues. I'm an active sitter near hiking trails. Last minute availability is possible. I'm currently working from home part-time making pet care fit easily into my days. If you need daily drop-ins for feeding, walking, running or medications, or ball play, we can set up a custom plan for your fur babies. I treat every pet as if it's my own. If your pet has special needs, we can discuss how best I can make them feel at ease. I'm here to help and open to handling specific needs. I've been there myself with my own babies.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have about 4 years of hands-on experience caring for them. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and understood, while keeping their routine consistent. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure each dog gets the care, playtime, and attention they need 🤍🐾 I’m currently available in the mornings and on weekends, especially Sundays. While I don’t work from home, I make sure to dedicate focused, quality time to each pet during my availability.

I always create a calm and secure environment and follow any instructions you provide. I take time to understand each dog’s personality, needs, and routine.

About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.
“What a great relief to find Jacqui! Our dobie Marko almost immediately took to her with his tail vibrating with joy before they left for their hour walk. He returned panting and somewhat worn out for the rest of the afternoon. This is the first time we've used Rover - add to that our anxiety about leaving him with a "stranger." Other pet parents will understand how reassuring it is to find someone who can connect with one's fur baby. Jacqui's a pro with great instincts - asking about quirks like where he likes to be scratched, etc. We've already booked her for more walks which Marko is looking forward to.”

“We had a wonderful experience with them as Cooper’s sitter. They were very responsive throughout the stay and shared pictures regularly, which gave us great peace of mind. Cooper got plenty of exercise and fun trips to the dog park, and it truly seemed like he felt right at home. They were also very flexible and accommodating with our drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated. We would definitely consider booking with them again and highly recommend their care! 🐶”
“AMAZING at her job. We had a situation where we needed our Uncles dog watched for 30 days and we found Melissa. She did an amazing job and even helped put Tiny on a diet. We felt very safe knowing Tiny was in good hands 🙌🏻 Highly recommend her !!!!!!!!”
“Andrew and Karrie were absolutely amazing with our Kali during her first overnight stay. From the start, they were kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kali came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are absolutely delighted with the whole experience and couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend Andrew and Karrie to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog sitters!”
“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Ashley and her family were more than accommodating for Murphy and I almost felt guilty picking him up. He fell in love with their dogs especially Gus who he played with in the backyard running laps until exhaustion. He made himself right at home and they treated him like part of the family. I couldn’t imagine anyone else’s watching Murphy while I’m in the area.”
“An absolute 5-star experience! I left my dog with Shahrzad for a week while I was away on vacation, and I couldn't be happier. Her home is beautiful and the facilities are fantastic-she even has her backyard sectioned off safely for small and big dogs. I received photos and videos every single day, which gave me total peace of mind. Shahrzad didn't just watch my dog; she kept them active with morning walks, playtime, and even a little bit of training. My dog came back home happy, healthy, and well-cared for. I highly recommend Shahrzad's boarding services and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Kevin was great!! My original roover sitter canceled on me 2 hours before our scheduled drop off and Kevin was kind enough to take kona in. Kevin and his family were very kind to kona while we were away and communicated with us during our trip sending us pictures. I will definitely book with Kevin again.”
“Our nonprofit, Military Animal Project, has used Armando twice now for Veterans. We are serving. Armando is easy to work with, very responsive, and when possible Armando can even accommodate some personal requests for the Veterans. Working with Armando through rover.com has made it possible for us to respond immediately to a veteran in crisis and immediately assist their pets in need.. We will continue to reach out to Armando and we appreciate his efforts to assist us with our veterans.”
“We were so thrilled to fund a great match with Neda for our Flynn. We boarded with Neda for an extended weekend, and she kept us updated with messages and pics throughout his stay. Thank you for welcoming him in to your home!”
About: I’m a professional dog trainer with a ton of love and experience with all dogs, well over 1,000 different dogs trained, walked and cared for! I'll show an abundance of compassion for your dog as if they were my own pet. Having fun, playing, and safety will be high priorities on my list during their stay.

I have an extraordinary amount experience boarding and caring for all kinds of dogs being a trainer and a former kennel specialist, and overall dog lover!

Plenty of pets and rubs, hikes or walks catered to the pups ability, and care like they are apart of my family! I will absolutely send plenty of updates and pictures
“We are so grateful for Tiffany and her family, and the love they showed Winston for his 2 week stay! She provided us with regular updates and pictures / videos, allowed him to swim in their pool when he jumped in (and even gave him a bath after!), and treated him as one of their own when they dressed him up in Christmas clothes with their other dogs. He had such a great time with their two dogs who matched his energy well!”
“Laura took great care of my dog for 10 days. He can be a bit anxious when first separating from me, but he was able to relax after the first day. Her frequent updates and photos also helped me to relax because I knew he was in good hands.”
“Hasmik is wonderful, she sends me photos everyday to ensure that my dog is happy and exercising. I can tell her and her family loves my dog. I’ve had her dog sit multiple times and trust her.”
“We feel fortunate to have found Irina to watch Rocky, our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. We were traveling and needed someone to watch him for the day. Irina was very friendly and accommodating. She was great with Rocky and sent us videos/pictures during his stay with her. Irina was very open to do a meet and greet before we left Rocky with her. We feel that it was very beneficial for Rocky and as a result her dog Sugar and Rocky got along very well. Irina was flexible with our timing which was a huge help to us. We highly recommend Irina and will use her again when we travel to the Santa Clarita Valley. Thank you Irina for taking care of Rocky. You are awesome!”
“Erin and her family took great care of our babies and treated them like family. She sent updates and pics of them while we were on our trip. Would definitely recommend her services!”
“Kiya is really nice and great and took amazing care of our golden retriever teddy. He kept me updated through the stay and sent me pictures and videos all the time. Teddy is very picky and Kiya really took his time to help him out which was really great. Would recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”
“I can’t say enough about Chris. My frenchie came back happy and healthy after four days of staying overnight. I got updates every day and got the sweetest photos during my trip. Chris took my baby boy to see the Christmas lights, went on walks, runs, you name it. Now I’m worried Monkey is going to miss his new best friend lol. Thank you Chris for giving me peace of mind and taking such good care of my furry child.”
“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”
