“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Irina was great with my Puppy Dodger. She communicated very well with me. Gave me updates and pictures. I could tell Dodger felt loved in her care. I’m sure he can’t wait to come back.”
“All I can say is amazing. I needed someone to watch my dog two days before my trip since my family canceled on me last minute. Hana immediately accepted Sadie. This was my first time leaving my dog with someone else longer than 4 days so I was a bit nervous. However, Hana updated me with pictures and videos every day from the day I dropped sadie off. She made me and my dog feel secure. My dog is also picky and did not want to eat the food I sent, so Hana went out of her way every day to prepare fresh food for my girl. I can tell Hana is knowledgeable about dogs and even gave me advice on how to appropriately feed my dog. I am forever grateful to you Hana. Thank you a million times. We found a forever sitter. 🩷”
“Achara provides the absolute best care for our dog! He comes home happy and healthy. I love the good communication, care for our dog, and extra accommodation on a short notice when we couldn’t make it home on time. Truly Odie’s favorite home away from home!”
“My pup had a great time at this doggie resort- the large backyard, shade and Zuko made it a wonderful place for my nervous girl. Seeing how Marilee interacted with Monina gave me the peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. Will definitely rebook whenever I need to travel.”
“Bari & Felix were great! We needed someone to watch our dog last minute and they were very accommodating. They kept us updated with photos and it seemed like Duncan (our dog) had lots of fun. If we come back to the area we would definitely book them again!”
“Patty did great with our Molly, who is a bit of a diva and still working on her social skills. She kept us updated on all her fun and her accomplishments. It felt like going to Auntie's house!”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”
“So loving towards my injured dog. Welcoming from the moment we walked in. Flexible with schedule changes & very responsive! Cecilia is wonderful to work with and will take good care of your fur-child.”
“We’re so grateful she accepted our last-minute booking and took fantastic care of our senior dog. She checked in regularly and kept us updated daily for the six days she had her, which gave us peace of mind. We highly recommend her services and will definitely utilize her again🐾”
“Michele was a wonderful sitter for our pup Wiley. She was very gentle and accommodating and took Wiley on many walks and play dates. She sent great photos and her communication was great! We loved meeting her lovely family and they all pitched in in sitting Wiley. Thank you!”
“Deborah is always full of love for furbaby london. He’s always excited to go to her place and his stay is always accompanied with plenty of videos and pictures. Thanks again Deborah!”
“Doh is excellent with the pups. She’s patient and kind and provided many pics and updates throughout my vacation. My dog seemed to really like her and my family did as well! Highly recommend!”
“We love Vivi. Vivi send daily updates about Ziggy, as well as pictures. When we got Ziggy today, it seems that Vivi combed her hair. We appreciate you always Vivi. Ziggy will be back. Thanks.”
“Zariah is an amazing dog sitter. She took care of my dog for a little over two weeks. She sent me videos everyday and kept me well informed about how he was doing. Moving forward, she will be my first contact when I need someone to watch my dog.”
“Kenia was awesome with Brownie. She sent updates throughout the entire time and he seemed happy when picking him up although it was dark and he couldn't really see me. He was protective of Kenia which goes to show what kind of bond they developed in such a short time frame. I would recommend and use Kenia again.”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“I had to have surgery and didn’t know what I would do with Ms Franky Mae until I found Rover and Ingrid! Ingrid met with us before I had to leave her and she was so obviously caring that my dog immediately took to her and her dog Moose! I felt very comfortable leaving her and Ingrid sent pictures and updates throughout the time she stayed. I will use Ingrid again whenever I need someone to care for my dog. She is an awesome human and I am so glad to have found her! I highly recommend her services.”
“Oso had the best time! I loved getting updates . We will definitely keep Kerstin as our regular sitter ? She was so friendly and awesome with our sweet boy .”

“Millie was amazing with our puppy Zoey! She love all the attention and play time she gotten. She knocked out form all the fun. Millie was great with communicating on setting up the appointment and follow up after everything was done. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and it totally allowed me to be at ease with my busy day at work while the pup is at home.”
“Kelli did an excellent job every day! She sent daily photos, and my cats were relaxed and happy. She spent time with them. When I returned, they were at peace! The cat room was clean, and they were well-fed. I definitely will hire Kelli from now on. I have a possible upcoming weekend trip in October and November. I will be traveling in January and during spring break. For sure, I will be hiring Kelli next June/July/Aug 2026, when I go to Japan for three months for a class and a pilgrimage.”
“Aicha was amazing! Super easy to communicate with and made sure our cat Theo got lots of attention and love. She even offered to water our plants! We’ll definitely use her services again :)”
“Thank you, Felicia, for taking such great care of Chai! Chai, our beloved, but sometimes grumpy cat really enjoyed your company, which says a lot. We look forward to future pet sitting with Felicia; she’s communicative, reliable, and super friendly! Highly recommend!!”
“Davina is AMAZING. I used Rover for many years and she’s the best cat sitter I’ve ever worked with! Super helpful detailed updates, lots of photos, and follows all the instructions seamlessly. She even brought her own cat toys and my lazy cats LOVED IT! My cats loved her because she gave them so much love. I will definitely reach out to her for my next trips!!”
About: I nursed my own cat Pepito through post-femur surgery recovery — medications, restricted movement, patience. I know what devoted care actually looks like. I read cat moods intuitively, respect their boundaries, and genuinely love playtime. Your cat won’t just be checked on — they’ll be engaged, observed, and truly cared for.
“The best possible experience! Audrey is so responsible, sweet, thoughtful, great with our cats, and trustworthy. We were able to leave our cats for the first time for a whole week and know they were in great hands. She went above and beyond in every aspect - sent daily photo updates, followed instructions perfectly — she’ll be our go-to cat sitter from now on! 🤍”
“Jazmin was so amazing!!! Truly incredible person with so much care for my sweet girl! Took her time coming to meet her beforehand and even fed a churu. I felt immediately comfortable with leaving the keys with her knowing she would be taking great care of her! No hesitation to book you again Jazmin and recommend you to everyone. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember. I love to train my own or take them on peaceful nature walk. I have senior pups of my own and younger energetic pup as well. I work part time and need extra money. I have time in my day to take care of others. I’m able to commute and take them on walks in peaceful areas. I can help you and your pup taking them on walks, making sure they are fed, and that their thirst is quench. Giving them company and playing around to get their energy out.
“Christina, again, was an amazing sitter to my 2 cats! She’s always very communicative and professional and takes great care of my cids! I also had to change plans and extend my trip and Christina was very willing to help out. :)”
“You can tell Reginay loves animals. She is very patient and works with your pet to make sure they are comfortable. Very communicative and will send pictures and videos throughout the day. Toni loves his stays there. 🥰”
About: An eight-hour-plus workday is too long to be without your furry babies, and that's where I come in. I've been a proud feline pet parent since 1999, and I'm still at it now with three cats. It's not always easy, but it's always rewarding. My experience with my fur babies ranged from delivering newborn kittens to full-grown senior cats. I have also provided vet care, taken in strays, and finding some of them new homes. So, if you hire me to do drop-in visits with your feline children, expect me to tend to them as if they are my own. I know that most people will use this service to go on vacation. But most people who are on the daily 9-to-5 grind might not get that privilege. My drop-in services are for those who can't check in on their feline pet during those hours. Cats need constant mental and physical stimulation. Therefore, when I arrive, I will engage in playing with them, replenishing the food and water bowl, and cleaning out the litter box. If you have any specific requests, please let me know, so I can accommodate them. I'm a pet parent of three myself, so I'm able to devote my time at least three times a week in the afternoon. Because I'm new at this, I prefer to do drop-in visits for cats only right now. My cats are the only children I have, and they mean the world to me. So if you choose me, please expect the best care.
About: I have owned multiple pets throughout my life. I am reliable and caring to your pets needs. I treat every pet like my own. I am trustworthy and I focus on building trust with you and your pet. I am attentive and prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I am able to administer medicine to pets. I make sure every pet gets a lot of love and kisses. I am committed to establishing a stress free environment for you and your pet. I have interned with my sister where she works as a veterinary assistant. I am free except some Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays. I can do early pet sitting if needed or night time sitting. I really love animals so as long as we agree to a time then I can make it work! I love taking walks. My dogs love to sun bathe and take a walk along the park and play. I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I also pet sit and keep the environment clean, secure, and provide regular updates.
“Erika dis a fantastic job caring for my very skittish but charming cat. They made friends right away. She followed all of my instructions for his care and my house perfectly. Her communications were extremely detailed. She is absolutely fabulous and I highly recommend her.”
“This was my first experience with Rover. Thanks to Ana, it will not be my last. Since I got my first cat three years ago, I have limited my travel to short, in-state trips. I just didn't have anyone who I trusted with my cats, so I avoided long work trips or extended vacations. But that all changed when I found Ana. My kitties are looking forward to seeing her again, and I am very happy to be able to travel to important family events in the future. Ana is extremely detail-oriented, and conscientious about her job. When she came by for a pre-departure meet and greet, I thought that I had written down everything that she might need to know. Yet she still thought to ask about things that I had not considered. She offered to put my trash bin out so that my house did not look unoccupied. She offered to water my houseplants while I was away. She even offered to put food out for the neighborhood stray that I normally feed! I gave her a lot of information during that first meeting, and she remembered every single detail throughout my trip. Even though I'm a helicopter parent when it comes to my cats, I was totally at ease knowing that Ana was coming by daily to check in on them. Ana is compassionate and intuitive when it comes to interacting with pets, and my cats were happy to see her each day. Even my second cat, who is normally terrified of strangers, grew to like Ana. I highly recommend Ana. Even though her rate was a little higher than other nearby Rover providers who do drop-in visits, she is worth every penny. I look forward to working with her again in the near future.”
“Dustin is wonderful. I often need to make last minute plans. Dustin always quickly responds to out request to let us know his availability. Our dog, Hank, is aging and Dustin takes such good care of him. I never need to worry as Dustin is 100% reliable. I highly recommend Dustin as he is the best of the best”
“Emily is awesome and took amazing care of my cats! I came home to happy cats and no poopy surprises in weird places from one of the cats like I’ve been having lately. And Emily was willing to check for those surprises during her visits.”
About: All of my life I've grown up with animals. (Dogs, specifically.) Before I went off to college my cousin, whom I'd been living with at the time, adopted a german shepherd. This german shepherd, Bauer, became like my own. I watched him go from tiny little puppy, to this massive energetic and sweet protector. I am experienced in most areas surrounding pet ownership and responsibilities. I am very nurturing and energetic, making me just the person to take care of your cherished. I follow instruction well, and I'm also experienced in cat care as well. Just a few years ago I adopted two kittens, Panther and Jaguar, who both grew up very quickly. Unfortunately, I had to move a few momths ago and could not accommodate for them both. I, then, made the decision to leave them in the good hands of my neighbor at the time. Lastly, I am a Sociology student at Santa Rosa Junior College with an interest in basic needs, equity, and how pets play a vital role in overall health. I'm currently working on research involving these topics! I work from home and I have a 2 year old. With that being said, I’m up early and my schedule is pretty flexible given my toddler keeps me on my toes! My apartment building is indoor so no worries necessarily about your fur baby if they’re escape artists. I don’t have a balcony or yard so we’ll just get that leash on and go explore!

“I found Marcie on Rover and she responded quickly on such short notice. I contacted her on a Friday and she was able to accommodate our pit bull Jada the next day. Marcie was courteous enough to provide photos of Jada while at the dog park. Jada looked like she enjoyed her time with Marcie. We look forward to using Marcie again in the future.”
“I dropped off my 7 lb chihuahua, Molly, for a daycare session with Hana yesterday, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I’ll admit I was really nervous at first, Molly is tiny, and there were two other dogs there, one of whom was super excited to meet a new friend. So much energy can make Molly hesitant, but Hana immediately stepped in with calm, confident leadership. She set clear boundaries to help everyone settle down, which made me feel so much more comfortable. Throughout the day, she sent me several videos showing Molly relaxed and happy, calmly hanging out with the other dogs and going for a nice walk. By the end of the day, Molly was curled up on the couch with Hana, her husband, and her two new friends, a huge sign of trust from my usually cautious little dog! Hana showed wonderful leadership, genuine care, and constant attention throughout the day. I left feeling completely reassured and grateful to have found someone so capable and kind. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
“I have used Manny for daycare on multiple occasions in recent weeks. I am an extremely neurotic pet parent and I always get nervous taking my dog to a new sitter. Manny went above and beyond in talking through my questions at length and asked thoughtful questions about my dog’s needs. My dog has done really well at Manny’s and I will be using his services in the future!”
“Roxy's first daycare with Amanda went extremely well. Amanda was very aware of Roxy's quirks and managed her without any problems during her stay. We will definitely use Amanda's daycare again and highly recommend her to others!”
“Great Doggy Daycare! Annie took wonderful care of my dog, Shiloh, during daycare. She was kind, professional, and kept great communication. Shiloh came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know! I highly recommend Annie. Randy & Shiloh 🐾”
About: Before you read my bio, please note that I value communication, and it’s extremely important for me, especially when you're trying to book me as a dog sitter. If you decide to go with someone else, that's okay - just be formal and let me know so I can adjust my schedule accordingly and take care of other dogs who may need care. ⠀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣀⣠⣶⣿⣶⡾⠁ ⠠⣿⡀⠀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣤⣶⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠀ ⠀⠙⢿⣶⣶⣾⣿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡿⠛⠿⠃⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡃⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣰⣿⣿⢿⣿⣿⠟⠁⠀⠀⠀⠈⢿⣿⠛⠻⢿⣦⡀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⠟⠁⠘⢿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠸⣿⡀⠀⠀⠹⠷⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣿⣤⠀⠀⠀⠙⠷⠶⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠙⠛⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hi! I’m Lauren :) ʚ₍ᐢ. ̫.ᐢ₎ɞ a at-home veterinary student with a spacious, non-smoking home and a great backyard. Since I study from home, pets get lots of attention and care throughout the day. I have past experience caring for a Yorkie, two shorthair cats, birds, bunnies, and fish, plus 100+ volunteer hours at my local animal shelter. I know it can be hard to trust someone with your pet, so I always do my best to make both pets and owners feel safe, comfortable, and confident. - Animal Experience: 🐾🐕🐈 I’ve personally cared for a Yorkie and two shorthair cats in the past, and I also have experience looking after birds, bunnies, and fish. This has helped me become comfortable with different temperaments, routines, and care needs across a variety of animals. - Volunteering Experience: (•˕ •マ╮ᕤ Along with my personal experience, I have over 100 volunteer hours at my local animal shelter. Working with shelter animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and how to make pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for, even in new environments. - I want every owner to feel reassured knowing their pet will be in kind, attentive, and capable hands with me. I will care for your animal as if they were my own and make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re away from you. I’m an at-home student majoring to become a veterinarian, which means I spend most of my time studying from home and can give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I live with my mom, who works most of the day, so the home stays calm, quiet, and spacious - a great environment for animals to feel safe and comfortable. Our home is completely non-smoking and has a great, secure backyard with lots of space for playtime, fresh air, and bathroom breaks. Because I’m home so often, your pet would have plenty of company and wouldn’t be left alone for long periods. Lots of healthy treats! Great toys and nourishment:)
About: Hello! My name is Violet and I’m 19. I’ve taken care of many dogs with varying ages and sizes since I was 15. I’m a volunteer/foster home at Front Street Animal Shelter and have fostered multiple dogs and puppies. This experience has deepened my understanding of animals as well as how to properly care for them. Along with this I assist friends and family pets frequently whenever they need me. I currently own a dog I adopted from the shelter 8 years ago, he is a mixed pup around 20lb and is good with other dogs. Currently I’m open full time for your pet, and I take any size pets. I am searching for more job experience and opportunities. I'm passionate about providing top-notch care for your beloved furry friends.

I have a fenced yard with one very friendly dog to keep your pup company. I’ll supervise to ensure the safety of all pets. If provided I’m able to easily crate your dog. I’ll be sure to follow all instructions given, whether at my home or at yours.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of looking after pets with a wide range of personalities, needs, and challenges. I have experience caring for senior pets, blind dogs, animals that require medications, and pets who need extra patience, attention, and reassurance. I understand that every animal is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, comfort levels, and individual needs so they feel safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs extra love and companionship, a consistent routine, medication support, or simply someone dependable who will treat them like family, I’m committed to providing thoughtful, reliable care. Your pets deserve the same kindness, patience, and attention I would want for my own. I’m currently semiretired and have lots of free time. I have a completely open schedule, able to schedule long term care or daily drop-ins. Open availability for the holidays I’m respectful, dependable and responsible. Have tremendous organizational skills and an eye for detail. Love to leave clients happy and reoccurring. Thanks for your time
“Domynique was amazing with my puppy Ollie. She sent updates and would provide walks along with just great quality time. She was super accommodating to my commute that she volunteered to meet me half way. Ollie always came home ready for a nap after a great day with Domynique, will definitely be booking again and would recommend 🥰”
“Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Vigo. She is clearly very experienced and comfortable with all different kinds of dogs, which immediately put us at ease. We felt completely confident leaving Vigo with her for two consecutive days while we visited Sacramento. Katherine has an excellent system for thoughtfully and safely socializing dogs, and it was clear that Vigo felt comfortable with her and engaged right away. Our dog has A LOT of energy and loves to run and play, and he was genuinely happy and very content when we picked him up both days. We couldn’t have been happier with the care Vigo received. I highly recommend Katherine to anyone with dogs of any breed or temperament. We wish she lived closer to us for regular stays but will absolutely go back to her any time we’re in the area.”
“Brandee provided fantastic care for our beagle. She is a good communicator and is super easy going. She sent photos of her daughter snuggling our dog, which sealed the deal. We’ll be back!”

As a student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet care needs. I'm easy-going and attentive, and I understand that every pet is different. Whether your dog needs a long walk and lots of playtime, or your cat prefers a calm presence and meal service, I'm happy to tailor my care to suit their personality and any special needs they may have. I'd love to meet you and your pet! Feel free to reach out with any questions or specific requirements. I'm here to help make sure your furry family member is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away. I'm a part-time graduate student, so I have plenty of flexibility in my schedule and can accomodate based on your and your pet'sneeds. Let me know what works best for you! When pet-sitting in your home, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment for your pet while respecting your space. I follow all care instructions carefully, maintain your pet's regular routine (feeding times, walks, play schedules), and ensure all doors, windows, and gates are properly secured. I'm attentive to potential hazards and keep harmful items out of reach. I'll send you regular updates with photos so you have peace of mind while you're away. If your pet has any special needs, medical requirements, or anxiety triggers, I'm happy to accommodate and adapt my approach. Your home and pet's safety are my top priorities.
“Aichav has been great with my white German Shepherd. My pup can be a lot to handle and we haven’t had a problem. She’s communicative and responsive. She takes my pup on several walks throughout the day while staying in her home. A+!”
“Krystal is an amazing dog walker. She took such great care of my dog during our morning and evening walks! She communicated very clearly throughout the process and paid attention to details, such as making sure my dog had her booties for hot days. I have already rebooked future walks with her and highly recommend her services.”

“Ashley is my very first walker from Rover. She arrived on time. She asked great questions, and was helpful in laying down the plan for Jacqui. My dog can be a snob in meeting new people, but because of Ashley’s personality and ability to follow instructions, Jacqui felt comfortable letting Ashley remove her harness towards the end of the walk! What a big relief on my side! I will be using Ashley again for future walks.”
“Milagros is amazing! We are so lucky to have found her. She was so patient with my dog as they were getting to know each other. She is reliable and very conscientious of my dog’s needs. Could not have asked for a better dog walker.”

I also have a 1.5 year old mini dachshund named Pabu - so I have experience with the puppy years!

About: Hi there! I’m Ana! 😊 I’ve been caring for animals for over a decade and honestly can’t imagine doing anything else. Pet care started as a side gig years ago and slowly turned into one of my favorite parts of life. These days I get to spend my time caring for all kinds of amazing animals while helping owners feel confident that their pets are in good hands. I currently have more than 100 five star ⭐️ reviews 🥹❤️ and experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels—from tiny kittens and senior dogs to parrots, reptiles, rodents, rabbits, fish, tortoises, chickens, and more! 🐶🐱🦜🦎🐀🐇 If you have a multi-pet household, unusual pets, or a pet with special routines, there’s a good chance I’ve seen something similar before! ⸻ Experience & Special Care 💊🐾 I am comfortable caring for: ✅ Senior pets ✅ Oral medications ✅ Inhalers and special care routines ✅ Large and giant breed dogs ✅ Puppies and high-energy dogs ✅ Multi-pet households ✅ Cats with big personalities 😹 ✅ Birds, reptiles, rodents, rabbits, fish, and other specialty pets I know every pet is different, so my goal is always to follow your routine as closely as possible. You’re the expert on your pet—I just want to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. ❤️ ⸻ What You Can Expect 📸✨ One thing you’ll never have to wonder is how your pet is doing. I love sending updates, photos, funny moments, and little check-ins throughout visits because I know how much we all miss our animals when we’re away. 😊 Services can include: 🐾 Feeding & fresh water 🐾 Walks & exercise 🐾 Playtime & enrichment 🐾 Medication administration 🐾 Litter box cleaning 🐾 Yard cleanup 🐾 Lots of pictures 📸 🐾 Plenty of cuddles (if approved by the pet 😆) ⸻ Cat Boarding Information 🐱🏡 My husband Joey and I share our home with our two resident cats, Gandalf and Azuki. ❤️ When boarding cats, we always start by providing a separate area so they can settle in comfortably at their own pace. Some cats want immediate friendship, some prefer a slower introduction, and some simply want to observe everyone from a shelf while silently judging us. 🤣 Whatever makes your cat comfortable, we’re happy to work with it. ⸻ A Little Extra Peace of Mind 🌱📬 I am also happy to: 📦 Bring in packages 📬 Collect mail 🪴 Water plants 🗑️ Take trash bins in/out 🚨 Discuss emergency and veterinary plans before your trip 🔑 Keep track of house keys carefully I believe good pet care is about the little details just as much as the big ones. ⸻ Final Thoughts ❤️ I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else. Whether your pet has feathers, fur, scales, whiskers, or a little bit of attitude 😆, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while giving you complete peace of mind. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d love to meet you and your pets! 🐾😊 Pet care is a priority in my life ❤️. As my health became more stable, I decided to focus on work that I genuinely enjoy—and caring for animals has always been one of my favorite things. Because pet sitting is my primary work, I schedule my days around my clients’ pets. Whether your pet needs walks, medication, playtime, feeding, or extra attention, I strive to provide dependable care and regular updates. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities ❤️. Before caring for a pet, I like to learn about their routine, personality, medical needs, fears, favorite activities, and any behaviors I should be aware of. The more I know, the better I can care for them. I have experience caring for senior pets, administering medications, and working with pets who need a little extra patience and reassurance.
About: I had dogs for my entire childhood and as an adult, I regularly volunteer at our local shelter to take shelter dogs out for the day to help socialize them, give them love, and to just give them a change of scenery. I would be honored to care for your fur baby! I currently work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, so I have very flexible availability those days so I can fit your pup’s needs. I work Tuesday through Thursday from 8am to 4:30pm, but am fully available afterwards. I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of space for your pup to run around if needed. I am happy to board, so long as your pet is comfortable staying in the yard. We have rabbits in the home, so unfortunately we cannot have dogs indoors.

“I was out of town for about a month and Reginay was amazing taking care of my Aussie "Nac. She keeps me updated every day with photos and videos. Nac came home in great condition after more than 3 weeks of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Achara provides the absolute best care for our dog! He comes home happy and healthy. I love the good communication, care for our dog, and extra accommodation on a short notice when we couldn’t make it home on time. Truly Odie’s favorite home away from home!”
“My pup had a great time at this doggie resort- the large backyard, shade and Zuko made it a wonderful place for my nervous girl. Seeing how Marilee interacted with Monina gave me the peace of mind to enjoy my vacation. Will definitely rebook whenever I need to travel.”
“Annie was great with my nervous dog. Annie responded quickly to my messages as we prepared for my dog's stay with her, and sent me pictures while my dog was in her care.”

“Kenia was awesome with Brownie. She sent updates throughout the entire time and he seemed happy when picking him up although it was dark and he couldn't really see me. He was protective of Kenia which goes to show what kind of bond they developed in such a short time frame. I would recommend and use Kenia again.”
“What a great team Marie & James made! Our senior pet is an active part of our family. We were so worried he wouldn’t understand our being away on a vacation without him. Upon meeting Marie and James, our Cooper seemed comfortable immediately. Their calm and openly friendly attitude was apparent. True to their word, daily pictures and videos were sent with texts. Their experience with older dogs and administering of medications was a relief. Can’t thank or praise them enough. Super nice people. Thank you! Cooper thanks you as well.”
“Oso had the best time! I loved getting updates . We will definitely keep Kerstin as our regular sitter ? She was so friendly and awesome with our sweet boy .”
“Our dogs loved staying with Ashley! Ashley took good care of our pups who are scared of fireworks over the 4th of July. She took them on daily walks and sent us frequent photo updates. We would recommend Ashley and will have our dogs stay with her again!”
“Demetra and her husband were the BEST dog sitters. Our anxious dog fell in love with them and their two dogs. They were excellent at communication and sent daily updates with photos and video. We will definitely be asking them to pet-sit again and I enthusiastically recommend them.”
“Ani took SUCH amazing care of Maisy! She sent lots of pictures and updates. I honestly felt bad picking her up because she has so much fun with them! I will absolutely use Ani in the future!!”

“Tammi was so great with our dog, Daisy. I felt confident that Daisy was safe and loved while we were on vacation. I appreciated the updates and pictures from Tammi, and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a dog sitter. We are so happy that we have found a sitter that we can trust our baby with.”
“It was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous. Michael eased my mind and I knew Cooper would be in great hands. From the meet n greet I knew Michael was going to give my boy plenty of attention and then once we dropped him off I saw them on a walk right away. I got plenty of updates of them on walks and pictures of him on their adventures and him pooped out afterwards. Cooper enjoyed his stay and we will definitely be booking a stay with Michael again!”
