“Ning was so responsive and provided us with constant updates about Roux’s wellbeing! I was honestly so nervous since it’s his first time boarding at someone else’s place and he also is a very nervous boy. To make it worse, he ate something bad the day before and needed medication for his diarrhea. She made sure to feed him his medicine on time. She also made sure he was comfortable and slowly introduced him to the other pups. We would definitely book with her again.”
“Im so glad we found them. They took such good care of our Lola. Sent us alot of updates of her. And in the pictures i could see that she was really enjoying herself. When we come again to California we will definitely keep them in mind.”
“My dog, Bailey, had a great stay with Victoria. She stayed in touch with me assuring me Bailey was fine. I knew she was in good care. No problems, easy to interact with. I would recommend her!!”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!
“We cannot say enough about Rebecca & Tom. Our dog had such a wonderful time there, we felt bad having to bring him home from his vacation. They are so experienced and their house has been transformed into a warm loving & caring place for dogs. We have found our forever sitter! Thank you so much!”
“Patricia was so wonderful with our foster girl Alyssa. It was the first time anyone has watched us interact with Alyssa, and she was so kind to share her tips and recommendations to help the foster experience along. Not only we were able to get Patricia’s help with boarding over the weekend, but we now have tools to improve Alyssa’s chances of adoption. Patricia’s experience is so valuable and she is my first choice for any kind of care for our pup!”
“Bennie and Jennie were amazing in taking care of my 2 cats, Yoshi and Bubbles. They were great in sending updates, photos and videos that reassured me. So grateful that they made my cats comfortable in their home. I would definitely rebook with them when I need trustworthy sitters to take care of cats.”
“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“Our experience with Doug was great! Puppies are difficult, but Doug is patient and willing to work with us on trying potential solutions. We are so happy we found a reliable person whom we can entrust our doggos with!”
About: I love hanging out with animals of all sizes and breeds, playing with cats and walking and jogging with dogs. It brings me joy to spend time with animal friends and meet their needs in a caring, supportive environment. I have time in the very early morning and on weekday evenings, and on weekends anytime for regular dog walks or runs, check ins or weekend visits. I am very responsible and respectful of individual preferences and styles. I follow instructions and remember the details on how your pet is special. I take notes! My apartment is super animal friendly with access to a fenced yard with grass. Decorating in my apartment is minimalist so pets can be comfy and spread out. I have a bathtub and deep kitchen sink if any bathing is required.
“Nikole was awesome!!! She sent pictures everyday !! And Gypsy felt comfortable there!! She took great care of her !! Nikole will be my go to when we travel !! I did like that Gypsy was the only dog while at there house ! Not that Gypsy doesn’t get along with other dogs. I’m just not sure in a home setting! But Nikole did her best and we appreciate her and this service !! Thank you Rover!!!”
“Very responsive, attentive, and caring. Made cute collages of our little one and sent us constant updates. Our minds were at ease as we knew he was in good hands. Would highly recommend”
About: I had one Abyssinian and Ragdoll cat before, so I know how to take care of those cats. I will do everything that makes the cat comfortable and happy. I am available everyday after 3 pm. I can make special schedule based on your needs. I am flexible during weekends as well. Thank you I have everything needed to provide a safe and cozy environment for cats. I have things like cat litter, brushes, wet foods, cat toys, and air filters.
“Luna was taken care of well by Cathy and her family. She was attentive to my dog's needs and follow the feeding instructions well. Highly recommended and I would definitely use her again and again.”
“I really enjoy how she sends pictures and videos every day. She goes above and beyond what I expected. My senior dog can sometimes be anxious, but Flo was so calm and happy to see her. Having a backyard is such a nice feature. I feel relaxed and confident trusting her with my dog. I’d definitely book her again next time!”
“Monica was sooo amazing for our pups!! We have a very active puppy and a senior dog, both with very different needs, and she cared for them both amazingly well! She shared tons of updates and I never worried for a moment. We will absolutely reach out to Monica when we need a sitter again.”
“Avancon cared for Barron and Tucker as if they were his own. Throughout their boarding stay, he sent me daily updates with photos, which gave me great peace of mind. He was attentive to their individual needs, took them on enjoyable walks, and even groomed them by combing them a few times. Overall, his care was thoughtful, reliable, and reassuring. I would use him again for sure.”
“Jenni is the perfect dog sitter you could possibly have for your pet. Attentive, on time, communication is very easy. Yuki had a great time and I was always updated with pictures. I guess my baby got her busy as well. I would definitely get her services again and won’t hesitate at all. When I got my dog back she was all clean too. Jenni probably gave her a wipe down which shows that she really naturally cares about the dogs she sits for. 10 stars if I could!”
“He lives in a great community with plenty of open spaces, parks, and trails. My dog looks very happy with him. He fed, walked, and played with my dog. He also sent me photos and videos how he took care of my dog. He is a dog lover and great carer.”
“Another fantastic and happy stay, my friends!! Words cannot begin to express the care that Al and Dody give to our babies (and YOURS)!!! What's even more wonderful? We live in the same neighborhood, so we have the pleasure of seeing Al and Dody while we are walking our dogs or grabbing a cup of coffee. Almost every time we've seen them, they have other pups with them! Please rest assured knowing that they treat your dogs as they would a child. Yes, that much care, love, attention and endless affection. Our dogs are always happy to see them (the Beagle makes it known with his loud yelps), and they get a little jealous when Al and Dody drive off with other pups in tow haha They take the dogs wherever they go, keep in contact with you, and let them cuddle up on the couch, in the bed and sit at the dinner table while dining al fresco in their back yard! Visits with Al and Dody are like seeing your favorite uncle and aunt, and getting spoiled to death. Trust me - these are the dog sitters you've been looking for :)”

“Isabella was great with Curley! She was able to feed him and help burn off some of his puppy energy while we were gone for the day. She treated our home with respect as well. She was very flexible to our requests and Curley’s routine.”
“Anna was amazing with communication and attention to detail while taking care of our cat Noah. She definitely went above and beyond and even spent extra time with him. I would not hesitate to have her look after him again and would recommend Anna to anyone looking for help with their fur baby.”

“I was quite nervous about leaving my 5 month old Shih Tzu, Tux for the first time, he has only ever been with my partner and I so quite naturally he very nervous upon arrival. However, Avancon and his gracious partner went above and beyond to make him comfortable...I mean, ABOVE and BEYOND!. From hand feeding him his food (wet food!!!!!) to gentle engagement that slowly calmed his nerves and allowed him to relax. I also received frequent updates and pics which I really appreciated, the great communication enabled me to have a worry free, productive work day. Words cannot express my true appreciation, I highly recommend this household for anyone with a puppy who they want to feel seen and loved.”

About: Hi, I’m Alice! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I truly can’t imagine a home without them. Growing up, I was always the one helping with neighbors’ pets, taking dogs on walks, and making sure every furry friend felt loved and cared for. Now as a mom of three, I’ve raised my kids to share the same love and respect for animals. With a little extra free time in my days, I’d love to reconnect with pets again and help families by giving their dogs and cats the same care, attention, and playfulness I give my own loved ones. Whether it’s long walks, backyard playtime, cozy cuddle sessions, or just keeping routines on track, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while their owner is away. I also know how important peace of mind is, so I send plenty of updates and photos so you never have to wonder how your furry family member is doing. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet—and to give them a little extra joy in their day! 🐾 My mornings and afternoons are usually free while my older kids are at school, which gives me the perfect window to focus on pet care. During that time, I can dedicate myself to walks, drop-ins, or play sessions without distraction. I love the idea of making pets part of my daily routine—it’s a joyful way to spend my time and helps me stay active too When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy. If I’m walking your dog, I’ll make sure they’re securely leashed, bring water if needed, and pay close attention to their energy level. I love taking them on walks around the neighborhood or to the dog park if that’s part of their routine, making sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s usual schedule—whether that’s feeding, fresh water, or a little extra cuddle time—so they feel cared for just like when you’re there.

About: I have been caring for my own pets and the pets of family and friends for over a decade. Currently I have a dog (25lbs) and 2 cats (raised fron kittens) of my own at home. I would love a chance to come by to help your pets socialize, go on walks, or make sure meals happen on time. I’ve walked, cleaned up after, bathed, and played with dogs from chihuahuas to huskies. I helped a housemate care for an elder chihuahua (14+ years old), and I have the patience to reinforce important behaviors in puppies. I am between projects and have ample time available for getting some social time in with your pets! I am available Monday-Friday after noon and weekends any time for drop ins. I have a small yard and I am accustomed to clearing messes immediately. Pets are always on leash when outside unless fenced in. I can segregate animals in multi-pet households for meals.
About: Hi everybody! My name is Bingbing but I go by Linda:) I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life(even before I was born!) and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities🐶 I currently have a puppy who I’ve personally cared for every day since he was 2.5 months old, so I’m very familiar with the extra attention, patience, routines, and supervision that puppies need. We also used to have a German Shepherd who I took care of, so I have experience with dogs of very different sizes and personalities! I’m definitely a “helicopter dog mom” with my own dog, and I bring that same level of attentiveness to every pet in my care. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, eating and drinking, bathroom habits, energy levels, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I know how stressful it can be to trust someone else with your dog, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely, keep you updated, and treat your dog with the same care and attention I’d want someone to give mine. I’m currently in college and taking mostly online classes, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m generally available after 10 AM and have plenty of time throughout the day to give your pet walks, playtime, attention, and care without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable and can stay in their normal routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, crate, and household instructions closely, and I’m very attentive to behavior, energy levels, bathroom habits, and anything that seems unusual. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings are secure at all times. I’m happy to send frequent photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing.
“I cannot recommend Katherine enough. She has been walking my two dogs for the past three months consistently 3 days a week while I work in office. My dogs can be a handful, with their bad leash habits and bad manners… Katherine has never had any issues or complained. She’s been so patient, responsible, and caring towards them, handling their craziness with love like I would. She’s also incredibly thoughtful. One particular day, I canceled due to being home from work sick and wanted to give her her lunch break back - she offered to still come, knowing I needed the rest. That meant so much and just shows the type of person she is. Katherine is dependable, communicative, and clearly loves animals. Now that I dont need a walker with work schedule changes, I want to make sure others know she’s fantastic!!! Me and my boys are so thankful for the last three months with her 🐶🐶”
“Mark was nothing short of amazing. From communication to effort to just his love for our dog Bubbles. Bubbles is a large dog and can be a handful and Mark was patient, caring and we had complete trust in him and his abilities. We 100% recommend and will use his services again in the future.”

About: I’ve always been an animal person, but never in my life would I have thought to have make it a career! I’ve trained and boarded over hundreds of dogs in my 3 years of experience. I treat every dog that comes into my home as if they were mine. I’ve trained puppies from ages, young as 4 months to seniors dogs as old as 11 years old. I know how it can feel to leave your dog with someone for the first time or new person but I can guarantee to you that your dog will have a blast with me. I also provide frequent updates since I know most owners will miss their pups. I also do offer private lessons, board and train programs along with boarding services. I’m your one stop shop! I’m a full time dog trainer that works from home which means I’ll have plenty of time to spend with your dogs whether they just want to hang out and sun bathe or play some fetch or tug. I do 5 rounds of potty breaks thru out the day, with 20-30 mins each round which means your dogs get plenty of time outside and aren’t stuck in a kennel all day long. I also offer training sessions while your dog is boarding if interested. I don’t like to overbook that way I make sure each dog get their proper time and attention outside. There’s always water available for them inside their kennel. I’m available to board any day of the week from 8am-8pm I built a kennel room that’s indoor climate controlled room right on the side of my house that’s specifically for my dogs and clients dogs. My dogs stay exactly where your dogs will be staying. All types of dogs are welcome. I have cameras set up all around the outside of my backyard and my kennel room as well so I have eyes on them at all times. My backyard is fenced to provide safety from escaping. I have two dogs who are pretty neutral to other dogs, my male dog helps me with aggressive dogs and my female helps me with building confidence for other dogs. All dogs stay in kennels and get rotated every 4 hours. If they’re puppies it’s every 2 hours.

About: Hello! I have trained puppies and dogs for basic obedience and shows for 15 years. I started as a mentee at 9 with a certified show dog runner and trainer for 1.5 years and started training my neighbor’s dogs as practice. I often foster for various rescues and shelters, including OC Animal Care, Carson Animal Shelter, and a few others. I have since started boarding various pets throughout college up until now. As a pet owner and practicing vet tech, I know just how important it is to find the right person to care for and be responsible for our family members - I’m definitely that person and will ensure the upmost respect for you and your pets! I like to give my clients and their pets the time to get to know me and feel like they’re making the right choice. I like to keep everything transparent and open for discussion. I live in a large two-story home with a fenced backyard and plenty of running space. I believe in lots of mental and physical stimulation to keep all animals in my care happy and healthy. I work from home at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to get 10k steps a day for my own health and make it a point to go for a 2 hour walk a day and love having a companion there with me :) My home is pet proofed from any toxic plants, food is kept out of reach, and my home is treated for pests and fleas monthly. I also have dog gates in case I ever need to section a part of the home off. I don’t like to use dog crates in my home (unless rest is needed for medical concerns) and like to let pets have a lot of freedom and space to feel their most comfortable.

“Ning was so responsive and provided us with constant updates about Roux’s wellbeing! I was honestly so nervous since it’s his first time boarding at someone else’s place and he also is a very nervous boy. To make it worse, he ate something bad the day before and needed medication for his diarrhea. She made sure to feed him his medicine on time. She also made sure he was comfortable and slowly introduced him to the other pups. We would definitely book with her again.”
“Im so glad we found them. They took such good care of our Lola. Sent us alot of updates of her. And in the pictures i could see that she was really enjoying herself. When we come again to California we will definitely keep them in mind.”
“My dog, Bailey, had a great stay with Victoria. She stayed in touch with me assuring me Bailey was fine. I knew she was in good care. No problems, easy to interact with. I would recommend her!!”
About: I have been a “Dog Mom” for over 20 years. Often having multiple dogs of different sizes and breeds. I have handled deaf dogs- using sign language for commands, bells on door handles for dogs to signal outside time and understanding quiet, calm environments for senior dogs. I currently have no dogs in the house and I miss it so much! I’m excited to help your family any way I can. I’m a stay at home mom with one 9 year old boy who shares in my love for dogs. My child will be at school during the school year. My days are flexible to accommodate your needs. I’m happy to send photos/videos of your fur baby as often as you’d like! I have a small outdoor patio that is partly shaded for those dogs who love a good sun- bathing. Out front there is some grass and I have a leash attached to large tree if they prefer grass time. (I will be outside with them the entire time) I can accommodate crate training at night or snuggle with them in my king size bed! We are an A/C controlled home!!
“We cannot say enough about Rebecca & Tom. Our dog had such a wonderful time there, we felt bad having to bring him home from his vacation. They are so experienced and their house has been transformed into a warm loving & caring place for dogs. We have found our forever sitter! Thank you so much!”
“Patricia was so wonderful with our foster girl Alyssa. It was the first time anyone has watched us interact with Alyssa, and she was so kind to share her tips and recommendations to help the foster experience along. Not only we were able to get Patricia’s help with boarding over the weekend, but we now have tools to improve Alyssa’s chances of adoption. Patricia’s experience is so valuable and she is my first choice for any kind of care for our pup!”
“Bridget was absolutely incredible with our boy! She and her family were so kind and caring, and updated us with lots of photos and videos. Our dog unexpectedly fell sick, and she not only immediately notified us, but took him to the emergency vet within minutes. She felt comfortable caring for him at home and he recovered well with her. Our dog became part of the family with her, and we would not hesitate to ask Bridget to watch him again in the future. She is an absolute gem!”
“Our experience with Doug was great! Puppies are difficult, but Doug is patient and willing to work with us on trying potential solutions. We are so happy we found a reliable person whom we can entrust our doggos with!”
“Nikole was awesome!!! She sent pictures everyday !! And Gypsy felt comfortable there!! She took great care of her !! Nikole will be my go to when we travel !! I did like that Gypsy was the only dog while at there house ! Not that Gypsy doesn’t get along with other dogs. I’m just not sure in a home setting! But Nikole did her best and we appreciate her and this service !! Thank you Rover!!!”
“Very responsive, attentive, and caring. Made cute collages of our little one and sent us constant updates. Our minds were at ease as we knew he was in good hands. Would highly recommend”
“Monica was sooo amazing for our pups!! We have a very active puppy and a senior dog, both with very different needs, and she cared for them both amazingly well! She shared tons of updates and I never worried for a moment. We will absolutely reach out to Monica when we need a sitter again.”
“Avancon cared for Barron and Tucker as if they were his own. Throughout their boarding stay, he sent me daily updates with photos, which gave me great peace of mind. He was attentive to their individual needs, took them on enjoyable walks, and even groomed them by combing them a few times. Overall, his care was thoughtful, reliable, and reassuring. I would use him again for sure.”
“This was Chanel’s second stay with Josefina, and once again she took great care of her. I always feel comfortable knowing Chanel is in good hands. Thank you for being so reliable and loving with her!”
“Cali was a happy dog when I picked her up. She is home now - calm and relaxed - with what feels (to me) like fond memories of her time with Nicole and her two Pomeranians. We are looking forward to the next time.”
“Emily and her family (Nyla included!) were exceptional looking after our dog River for a week. They were welcoming and friendly and we were very happy leaving River with them. Emily posted pictures everyday - which helped us relax on our break knowing that River was in such a safe and positive environment”
“I think Sunny’s reviews speak for themselves. I was nervous about leaving my buddy with someone I did not know but she agreed to do a meet and great beforehand. I have an 8 year old Boxer and he loved it. I would highly recommend”
“Katie was AWESOME! My little guy loved her and all of her roommates. She even got him to make a couple doggie friends which was really great. She regularly sent photos and kept me updated on all of his behaviors. I didn’t worry at all during my time away from Archer(my dog). I would highly recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again. Katie really did an amazing job.”

“Chloe was a great sitter for my dog while I was out of town for a few days. Would definitely recommend her services to anyone looking for boarding for their dog! I even asked her for some unexpected extra help with giving my dog medication while I was gone and she did not hesitate to say she could assist! I got my dog back, happy and healthy and would use her services again!”
