So lucky to have found Annie and Ty ❤️ can’t say enough great things about this experience. It was so hard to leave my Nelly during Christmas but Annie & Ty sent plenty of pictures/updates and gave Nelly the present I left her on Christmas Day which put my heart at ease. I rest assured knowing she would never be alone during my time away. Nelly made herself right at home in their home and I can’t wait for her to rest easy with Annie & Ty in the future.

I recently had to go on an international trip for 2 weeks and needed to find a sitter with very little advance notice. I cannot imagine a better choice than Ronald and his family. From the get acquainted visit, to the drop off, and entire two weeks Duke and Daisy spend with them, they were all very welcoming, loving and caring for my kids. The daily update pictures and occasional video showed what a great time they were having and how well taken car of they were. If you want your dog or dogs to feel as at home as they do in your house let them stay with Ronald and his crew. Duke and Daisy came home happier than ever.

She also kept us updated daily with photos and videos of all the hikes and activities they did which I absolutely loved! Thank you so much for everything! Will definitely want Zoe to stay again if she’ll have her!

Crystal took care of my dog Charlie very well and I can tell that he was in good hands as soon as we met her. All he likes to do is snuggle and be next to someone and she took the time to be with him and make sure he felt comfortable. He’s a little anxious sometimes, but even when we got him back, there were no signs that he was anxious and he was just as happy as if we never left him. we will certainly consider having Crystal watch him again as they bonded very well. Thank you, Crystal!

About: I currently have a rescued cat of my own and have experience caring for cats of different ages, including kittens. I'm comfortable with daily feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and monitoring overall well-being while you're away. I also have experience with light bathing and nail trimming when a cat's temperament allows for it. I understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. Some cats are very social and enjoy playtime, attention, and cuddles, while others prefer their space and independence. I'm happy to adapt to your cat's needs and routine, providing companionship, enrichment, and affection when wanted while always respecting their boundaries. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment until you return home.

Stop scrolling – you’ve found the perfect pet sitter! Verona is absolutely incredible. She cared for my cat for seven days and went above and beyond in every possible way. She brought in my mail, packages, and even garbage cans—without me ever asking. But the most amazing part? My cat came back happier and friendlier than ever. I had only adopted her two months ago and this was my first time leaving her, yet Verona’s gentle, caring approach helped her become more relaxed and tame than I imagined possible. And as a bonus, Verona took the most stunning professional-quality photos of my cat that made me see her in a whole new light. If you’re looking for someone who truly loves animals and treats them like her own, Verona is the one. I feel incredibly lucky to have found her and would trust her again in a heartbeat.

I have my own 3 dogs at home but if needed they can stay in their crate. I usually keep mine in theirs when I’m gone because they can get a bit mischievous, I also have a play pen in case your fur baby doesn’t like crates but also have an extra one if you’re okay with them being in one.

Annie & Ty provided excellent care for our dog and cat in our home over four days (two visits per day). They carefully followed all our instructions/requests, and the Rover platform made it easy for them to send updates, photos, etc. regarding animal status. Our dog really enjoyed her daily walks -- the most time consuming part of the visits. I sensed a devotion/compassion toward animals from this couple that goes beyond just a business arrangement. Plus, they are very pleasant individuals. It was truly like having trusted family members come over to watch our pets. Annie&Ty will be my first choice next time.

I’m so grateful for Chris & Corinne and the awesome job they did taking care of my dog, Kieran. I needed some last-minute help and not only were they able to accommodate my short notice booking, but they also made time to squeeze in a meet-and-greet session so my dog could have a chance to acclimate a little. My dog can be a bit anxious and tends to warm to new people pretty slowly, but within minutes of meeting he seemed at ease in their home and even came up to them for pets. During the actual visit, I got a midday check-in, complete with a photo of my boy relaxing and looking perfectly comfortable and content without me. If I wasn’t in the process of moving, I would definitely use them as our regular sitters!

Michelle and Steve are amazing! They are incredibly patient with my sometimes rambunctious 9 month old sherpard terrier mix. Michelle provides really thorough daily updates with some highlights and works to ensure that the behaviors that the owner is working on with their pup are followed during the stay. The icing on the cake is their pup Daisy. She is incredibly sweet and calm, and my pup Iris loves spending the day playing with her. 10/10 would recommend, and would not hesitate to book for sitting or boarding services!

About: Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve grown up with dogs and cats, and I currently have a 2 year old cat who is adorable. I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, loving, and attentive to care for your pet when you’re away — and I’d be honored to be that person. Whether it’s a walk, a cozy overnight stay, or just some playful company, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I'm calm, patient, and I pay attention to every detail, from routines to special quirks and needs. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're gone — and to give you peace of mind. I'm currently working part-time, which gives me the flexibility and energy to provide attentive, loving care to your pets — especially when they need it most. On weekdays after 3 PM and throughout the weekends, I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, or walks. Whether it's a cozy evening walk, playtime in the yard, or a relaxing overnight stay, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Spending quality time with animals helps me unwind and brings so much happiness into my life — and I’d love to share that with your furry friend! I have a fenced yard and a indoor cat. Whether it's a cozy evening walk, playtime in the yard, or a relaxing overnight stay, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for.

About: Lived with dogs most of my life and have experience working with new born puppies to senior dogs. Most of my boarding experience is with larger breeds. I’m currently working part-time from home, so I have lots of flexibility and time. I am available regularly from 8 AM to 1 PM Monday-Friday. I am also available after 2 PM on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I also have availability in the evenings after 5 PM and both Saturdays and Sundays. I have a large fenced in backyard with two very friendly dogs of my own. We also have a cat in my home that gets along very well with the dogs. We also have a chinchilla, but he stays in his cage. I have multiple sizes crates available for use.

Kara was amazing! My anxious and hyperactive pup loooves going to see her. She comes back calm, content, and happily worn out. Kara goes above and beyond , bringing her to the park, multiple walks, and made her homemade healthy dog treats. Best of all she is so clearly at ease when I drop her off in the mornings that I am able to relax at work knowing she’s happy and in good hands.

About: Hi there! I grew up with rabbits (Netherland dwarfs) and have been a personal cat owner (five cats!) for 12 years. I have nursed my cats back from surgery and just honestly adore every kind of animal. I’m great with the more nervous and anxious ones, using patience and care to gain trust. I would love to walk, play with, and care for your fur babies! I have a very flexible schedule and am available for many hours. If you have shift work or a non-traditional schedule, or need me for when you travel, I would love to work with you and your animals! Whatever your home situation is, I will pay undivided attention to them and ensure their best physical and mental health while you are away! I also believe in frequent communication so that you know your fur baby is happy and healthy.

About: I enjoy spending time with animals and I want to make sure they are always happy because that makes me happy too! I believe I am very caring towards animals and will treat each one I watch as my own! Pet care is a part of my life because I do free lance work that allows me to be flexible with my hours so I can best assist my clients. I care for pets by being around them to make sure they are happy, safe, and fed. I do what I need to do to make sure they have a happy experience with me, by playing with them, walks, feeding them and making sure their water bowl is full!

Hanna is great. My dog Zeus stayed with her several times now and each time he was completely relaxed and happy when I picked him up. He tends to be skeptical of strangers and stressed out by daycare, but not with Hanna. He gets to play with her dog Bigsby, plays with toys, solves puzzles, goes for walks and eventually snuggles on the sofa when he is tired. Hanna deeply cares about a dog's needs.

Gris treated our furry family member with the utmost care and affection, as if our pup was her own. Her attentiveness and dedication have earned our trust completely. We're thrilled to have found such a reliable and loving sitter in Gris, and we look forward to having her as our go-to dog care provider for all future needs. Highly recommended!

About: Hi! My name is Sophia and I am a student at Cal Poly. Throughout my time here, I have wanted a pet of my own but my lease is not pet-friendly. Throughout my life I have been surrounded by other people’s dogs and cats- family, neighbors, and friends- and I jump at every opportunity to watch and spend time with them! I prioritize safety, communication, and trust and I would love to help you take care of your animal and give them the love they deserve! I am currently a full-time student, but I am free all day during Fridays and weekends, am available T/Th after 3:30 pm, and M/W after 6pm. I’m very detail-oriented and thrive when I have clear instructions to follow. I appreciate having all the information upfront about how tasks should be done, and I’ll make sure to carefully follow any directions you provide.

About: I've been an animal lover my entire life and currently care for three large dogs (50–90 lbs) and one rescued cat of my own. Two of my dogs have been with me since they were puppies, and I've personally handled their training and daily care. I also helped raise a litter of eight puppies from birth until they were 8 weeks old, ensuring they were healthy, socialized, and ready to join their forever homes. Through my experience, I'm comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and needs, including administering medications and providing extra reassurance to pets who may be nervous or adjusting to a new environment. I regularly take my own dogs on 1–2 hour walks and prioritize both physical exercise and mental enrichment. I also bathe, shave paw pads, clip nails, brush, clean ears and brush their teeth. I have experience with basic obedience training, including sit, stay, leave it, kennel training, potty training, and recall training. When appropriate, I'm happy to reinforce basic commands during visits using treats and positive reinforcement. Above all, my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, as I already care for three dogs and a cat of my own every day. I'm typically most available during evenings and weekends, which allows me to dedicate quality time to walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins. Depending on my schedule, I may also have availability during mornings, afternoons, and some holidays. I enjoy spending time with animals and am committed to providing reliable, attentive care that fits each pet's individual needs and routine. I believe every pet is unique, so I always strive to follow each owner's preferences and routines as closely as possible. Whether that means specific walking routes, favorite toys, feeding schedules, or other care instructions, I'm happy to adapt to what makes your pet most comfortable. I am experienced with administering medications and am patient with pets who may be a little stubborn or nervous. Through years of caring for my own dogs and cat, I've become very familiar with canine and feline body language and understand how to communicate with animals through both verbal cues and body language. Safety is always my top priority. I stay proactive during walks, playtime, and daily care to ensure pets remain safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I also understand how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I'm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and videos throughout my visits. If requested, I can provide more frequent updates so you always know how your pet is doing while you're away.

About: Hi! I am Sara! Dog mom, pastry baker, and animal lover. I have a very small pupper of my own. I am most comfortable with the very small but mighty protectors, who may need some extra love and attention, or maybe some extra potty breaks. I am also experienced with the bigger puppers as well, (Tank, 100 lb Saint Bernard). I like to think of all dogs all puppers, no matter their age or size. Every dog is still the young happy loving pupper that they once were that still needs all the love and attention. Can't wait to meet all the new and loving puppers hopefully soon! Currently working from home, making sweet pastries and custom cakes. I have a lot of extra time in between orders and would love to get out and enjoy the sun and beautiful day with your wonderful dogs. I can care for small and medium size puppers here in my home. I have plenty of beds and step stools for our mighty small puppers. I am also very comfortable with larger dogs as well, but my place is a little small so I am available for house calls/sitting and always available to take a our lovely dogs out for a much needed walk and some extra exercise.

About: I’ve always had a dog and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs of all different ages, ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I love making dogs feel loved when their owners are away on trips. I go to school Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during the day, but I am available during the evenings. Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays I am available anytime to care for your pet! I provide care in my clients' homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether I'm house sitting, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking dogs on walks, I always follow each owner's instructions and keep their pet's normal routine. I make safety a top priority by ensuring doors and gates are secure, and using provided leashes and harnesses during walks. I provide fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure they’re not only cared for but feel loved. I also treat every client's home with care and respect, keep the space clean, and provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: Animals have been part of my life since I was little — I grew up with six dogs and started caring for them on my own around age 10. It was never a chore. I genuinely loved it. Since then I’ve looked after pets for friends, family, and neighbors, and that same feeling has never gone away. I do drop-in visits, walks, and boarding. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where they’ll be treated like family — not just watched over, but truly loved. I give a lot of affection and I make sure every animal feels safe, seen, and cared for. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR, can handle oral and injected medications, and have experience with senior animals and pets with special needs. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll show up for them. I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel hard. I just want you to feel at ease — and I want your animal to feel loved while you’re gone. I’m currently studying psychology online, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet real attention. I’m available for boarding on weekdays and weekends, and I offer drop-in visits and walks in the morning or afternoon — any day of the week. Your pet is welcome to stay in my home, where everything is calm, clean, and safe. I can also come to your home if that’s what’s most comfortable for your pet. Either way, I’m respectful of their routine and give them plenty of love and attention throughout the day. I always clean up after myself and make sure your animal feels at ease the whole time you’re away.

I recently had to go on an international trip for 2 weeks and needed to find a sitter with very little advance notice. I cannot imagine a better choice than Ronald and his family. From the get acquainted visit, to the drop off, and entire two weeks Duke and Daisy spend with them, they were all very welcoming, loving and caring for my kids. The daily update pictures and occasional video showed what a great time they were having and how well taken car of they were. If you want your dog or dogs to feel as at home as they do in your house let them stay with Ronald and his crew. Duke and Daisy came home happier than ever.

All he likes to do is snuggle and be next to someone and she took the time to be with him and make sure he felt comfortable. He’s a little anxious sometimes, but even when we got him back, there were no signs that he was anxious and he was just as happy as if we never left him. we will certainly consider having Crystal watch him again as they bonded very well. Thank you, Crystal!

We had a great experience with Stacey and Christopher watching our pup Hudson. This was our first time having him stay with anyone besides family so we were nervous but it turned out great. They were super attentive, sent us a ton of picture updates everyday and even let us set up a meet and greet ahead of time. We loved that they only pet sit one dog at a time and they were happy to accommodate any requests we had. Definitely plan to use them again for future trips. Thank you Stacey and Christopher!

Jason took great care of Beta for us! She was happy and tired from all the playing. He clearly cares for the pups he watches and is great working with them. Highly recommend!

Norma & family are great! Our Mateo is very happy with them. Their dog Ketchup is an awesome playmate for Mateo. We would not hesitate to recommend them. They have taken care of Mateo twice now & we would gladly leave him with them again.

Our dog had a great time at Martin and Crystal's house in their huge backyard and played well with their pet dogs. We received photos and videos and they only had positive feedback. We will definitely use them again!

Julia was awesome with our dogs! We appreciated the nightly updates and pictures! Our dogs enjoyed playing with her husky and seemed very relaxed in her home. Thanks for watching our fur babies, Julia!🐾

Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.

Allison & Shane did such a wonderful job taking care of Bella. Being able to find a sitter that you truly feel you can trust to tend to & look after your fur baby in the way they need is invaluable! Allison & Shane were thoughtful in the way that they approached our shy & anxious girl, giving her exactly what she needed to feel safe and a part of their family. They were also very communicative with us and provided plenty of pictures throughout the entirety of her stay to keep us informed on how our baby was doing. Everything I could’ve asked for & more! We’d love to have Bella stay over again in the future. :)

I give Mayank and his family a FIVE star review all the time. They send pictures, updates. Zazzle is so happy to be with Myank and his family. Their daughter Pia loves all the four legged guests. Zazzle has dogs to play with, get tuckered out. Can't get better than this. Thanks to Mayank and family.

Sandy was amazing and agreed to help us out last minute during a busy travel week. She took incredible care of our dog. Her experience with dogs was clear from how she interacted with Darwin and we couldn't have asked for a better home for our dog!
