“Mariana is an excellent Sitter for any dog. You can tell she loves all dogs and takes good care with them. She gave my dog extra activities to do and made sure he didn't run out of food on our long trip away. I'll definitely use her again to care for Bruno!”
“This was the first time I left my dog with Jen and Stephanie. They did a great job of keeping in touch with me daily and sending pictures of my dog, sometimes playing with their dog. I would highly recommend them. They did an excellent job and I look forward to bringing my dog there for future stays.”
“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.”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Brittany took great care of our dogs. One takes meds, and the other is super anxious. Both dogs were well cared for. Brittany walked them and kept us updated with texts and pictures. Highly recommended.”
“Erin and Kennith were amazing. They sent multiple pictures throughout the day and provided updates on how my baby was doing. They were very responsive and stayed connected. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good house to keep your baby at. Thank you both!”
“Thank you, Al and Ayni, for taking such GREAT care of our sweet Russell. The numerous photos and video clips were very much appreciated. They gave a glimpse of Russell's days, and reassurance that he was totally happy making new paw - as well as human - friends. Thank you for the daily walks, cuddles, cuddles and MORE cuddles! BIG baby as you quickly noticed so certainly grateful for giving him extra TLC. Please extend our gratitude to Boba and friends for welcoming Russell and making him feel at home. THANK YOU SO MUCH!”
“Mario sent us photos and updates, gave my older dog medications and followed a specific diet for them. I was pleased with the care my pups received and would re-book with Mario next time a need comes up.”
“This was my first time using Rover for my big boy German Shepherd. Tiantian was awesome the whole way through. My boy was very nervous and anxious staying at another home especially without me and Tiantian was incredibly patient and understanding. She sent daily pictures which I was also grateful for. I highly recommend Tiantian to watch your dog. She was outstanding.”
“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.”
“Neda treated our baby girl like an absolute queen! We reached out to her last minute as our usual dog sitter couldn’t watch Roxy. She agreed to let us meet her beforehand and we brought Roxy too- everyone vibed really well! Neda took Roxy on walks and gave us little updates with photos. You can tell Neda really has a passion for animal care and she treated Roxy like one of her own.”
“Stefanie and Matt were fantastic! Updated us with pictures and videos throughout the stay. I know our sweet girl was very well taken care of and she was exhausted when she got home! Thank you so much for welcoming Nova into your home!”
“We couldn't be happier with the care Skilly received! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. They made Skilly feel comfortable, loved, and right at home, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We received updates and could tell she was being treated like part of the family. When we picked her up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Skilly. We will absolutely be using your services again and highly recommend you to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Steph was great with my dogs. She was flexible and understanding to my dogs individual needs. She is wonderful and very easy to work with! I look forward to booking with her again soon.”
“Nancy is amazing, and Roxy is the sweetest! My boy dog is very anxious and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but Nancy has such a calming presence and truly has the magic touch. She made him feel safe, comfortable, and at home so quickly. Within hours, Nancy was updating me on his progress and sending pictures and videos, which brought me so much comfort and peace of mind. Her attention to detail and level of care are unmatched. She made sure Dale stayed on his feeding and toileting schedule exactly as instructed and took the time to ensure he was well cared for every step of the way. I’m also so grateful to Roxy for helping teach Dale the ropes and for being patient and willing to share her parents and toys with him while still keeping him accountable to the house rules. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”

“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Flor pet sitting for us. She took such great care of both our bunny and our cat while we were away. Not only did she make sure they were well-fed and comfortable, but she also spent quality time playing with them, which gave us so much peace of mind. One of the things we appreciated most was her consistent communication, she sent photos during every visit, and it was so reassuring to see our pets happy, relaxed, and well cared for. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. We came home to two very content pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter!”
About: I taken care of and trained my own dog, a sweet Pembroke Welsh Corgi. She has passed and now I want to continue spending time with pets. I am currently working full time but am available in the evenings and weekends. On the weekends I am available all day to assist with pet care. I can follow any instructions to keep your pet safe in your home. I take precautions and try to read body language if the pet does not feel secure.
About: I have six years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. I have a genuine love for animals. The bond between people and pets in incredible special. Even without words, animals have an amazing way of expressing treat, affection, and companionship. My priority is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. Pet care naturally fits into my routine because I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. I am available for walks, drop ins, and overnight stays. My goals is to provide dependable care while keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I follow each owners instructions closely. I also make sure to update owners with messages and pictures so that you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being well cared for.
“Denise was a 10/10 cat sitter. She was extra communicative, gave us very detailed updates from her visits, and was very respectful of our house. She’s also super sweet and friendly. Would definitely book her again!”
“Daniella did a fantastic job with our puppy during her drop in visits! She kept us in the loop with cute pictures and updates. Followed all instructions and went above and beyond to work on training and brushing. Would highly recommend!”
“Alexis did a phenomenal job of caring for my two cats. She was accommodating of everything I asked and took great care of them. She sent plenty of updates each day to keep me posted on the status of their health and what silly shenanigans they got into. My house was as I left it, it was like I wasn't even gone. What a pleasure to work with her. I will definitely book her again in the future.”
About: Worked at Horizon Veterinary Hospital, so I’m calm and capable if a crisis comes up, I know the warning signs and how to act fast. I give each pet individual attention, not just a quick in-and-out. I’ve pet sat for neighbors for years, so I have learned how to build trust with both pets and owners. I also have 3 cats of my own, including one I raised from just a day old! I understand what it takes to care for pets at every stage of life. And since I work from home, I can often be right there with your pet in their own space, no long stretches alone!
About: I was born into a family with Saint Bernards, and over my lifetime have owned seven Saints plus an English Mastiff, a pittie mix, a cat, birds, fish, rodents, reptiles, and horses. I've been described by friends and family as a dog whisperer, and I can't help but make friends with any dog I see. I've been dogsitting for friends and family on the side for years now, doing overnight visits, extended stays, and drop-ins for potty, walks, and meals. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, but I've always had a soft spot for the giant breeds. I was a cross country runner and still live an active lifestyle, so long walks and runs are no problem. I can also do transportation to vet visits, doggy day care or walks at dog parks, etc. I'm looking forward to taking care of your furry family members! I am widely available for scheduling. I have a few steady clients with regular visits, but I can work with you and figure out the best schedule! As a lifelong animal owner, I understand the needs of many animals, as well as the feelings that owners have towards their furry friends. My initial clients were friends, but through the established trust and word of mouth recommendations, that list has grown. When doing overnight or extended stays, I will always bring in the mail, take out the trash, and perform any other household duties you may need. I've cared for sick dogs, handled emergency situations, and taken care of urine and other medical samples for my clients. Whatever you need, I can accommodate.
“Curt took exceptional care of our Keesha, getting the pictures every visit was such a nice touch, we loved them. We would have him back again. The only tip I have is... Wash the used cat dishes before you leave, our house really had a cat food odor when we came home. That's it, we appreciate Curt and Rover and the work you do.”
About: From a young age I would house sit for neighbors and would take care of their pets, whilst they were on vacation. I've taken care of older dogs that had special needs as well. I have been walking dogs for the past 5 years as a hobby, and as a way to stay healthy. When my friend's shoulder was dislocated I walked his Grey Wolf/Husky mix for him while he recovered. I am available most days, I have full availability on weekends, and late nights (10-11pm) all week for those dogs whom prefer cooler temperature walks. I am unable to host your dog at my home currently. I'm experienced in giving older dogs their medications including pills and Insulin. I can house sit and watch your pets while you are at work, on vacation, or even if it's just date night.
About: I have taken care of cats for friends and family for nearly 20 years, including newborn kittens and their mamas. I also have experience with senior cats and distributing medication. I understand the importance of a feeding schedule for cats as well and ensuring they are staying hydrated throughout the day. I’m also no stranger to changing out a litter box when needed. I can’t wait to meet you and your kitty!
About: I am very active and love being outdoors. I am almost always available given enough notice. I love to be at the park, beach, and going on long walks. Very friendly. Absolutely love dogs and playing fetch with them. I grew up around dogs and cats and other small animals my entire life. I enjoy being around mostly dogs but I love all pets. I am comfortable with grooming, feeding, walking, potty breaks, walks, extra long walks for more energetic dogs, and giving lots of attention! For overnights I do have small children in my home who also have a love for animals. They are very friendly and energetic, very helpful and love to be involved in taking care of dogs and any pets they encounter. I am available to walk dogs morning afternoon and night time. I can typically get drop offs/pick ups from 5 pm to 9 pm. Depending on the day. As soon as I wake up I will take the dogs for a walk then when we get back ill make sure to feed them. I do like going to the park often as well.
“Tessa is a phenomenal cat sitter! We feel so lucky to have found her. Our cat needs to take oral medication and Tessa was able to administer it with no problems. Our cat didn’t even run away after. I highly recommend her!”
“Valerie was a life saver for me over the weekend when I didn’t have someone to watch my cat. She was prompt and kind and accommodating. I didn’t have to worry about my boy while we were away, and she sent a bunch of photos of him. When I could not make it home on time, she happily agreed to help me out with another house visit. I would definitely call on Valerie again when I travel.”
About: I’ve loved animals my whole life and volunteered with Ventura County Animal Services for about three years. Since 2019, I’ve cared for pets through drop-in visits, overnight house sitting, and in-home pet care. I have two cats of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for cats of all ages and personalities. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers their own space, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, care, and love while you’re away.

“My dog loves Marianna he get so happy coming to her place. She take such good care of him. His happiness says it all. If anyone is looking for a dog sitter Marianna’s is the best place to leave your dog. Thank you so much 😊”
“Flor did a wonderful job with our pup. She was very warm, professional, and communicative. She sent many updates and great photos! We appreciate having someone so reliable close by. :)”
“How very fortunate we are (Dustin dog and me), and what a huge relief it has been to have connected with Nancy and her sweet Roxy. When our Weimaraner got ill and died suddenly I needed to switch from having our pet sitter staying at our house to the sitter's house so Dustin wouldn't be alone several hours each day. He also needs canine friends but is often reactive (growl, bark, snap if he is scared enough) and needs exposure, time and patience when meeting a new dog. He is not comfortable being handled (he is 14 pounds) by new people. Nancy and Roxy have been wonderful in keeping him in his comfort zone and gaining his trust. After several successful short daycare sessions we will start short boarding stays before our out of town trip. Needless to say I give Nancy the highest recommendation.”
About: My life has always been centered around animals. From the age of nine, I’ve been a dedicated pet owner, consistently sharing my home with both dogs and cats. A Lifetime of Compassionate Care: My extensive, lifelong experience covers a wide range of needs. I recently cared for my own beloved senior dog through age-related health issues, providing me with intimate and patient experience in senior pet care, including managing specialized needs and medication. Over the years, I've been the go-to sitter for family and friends, looking after their pets with the same dedication I give my own. This, combined with my prior volunteer work at local animal shelters, has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior and welfare. I approach pet sitting not just as a service, but as a commitment to ensuring your furry family member feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I work part-time from home, which means I am present most of the day, ensuring constant supervision and a predictable, secure routine. I'm available seven days a week to provide reliable and loving care for your furry family member. I live in a comfortable, clean apartment that is free of other pets and children, ensuring a calm and focused environment for your dog. While I don't have a private yard, we have immediate access to open fields and a walking trail right nearby. We enjoy daily walks and adventures on the trails for exercise and stimulation!
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.
“My dog has loved the experience of being taken care of by Tiantian and her loving dog Ivan. We continue to have daycare with her since everytime we go to drop him, he is overly excited to go and start playing with her dog. Appreciate her great care!”
“Ellen was great. She took great care of our pup and was very easy going. She even had some advice for activities in town that were really great. We will definitely see her again next time we are in town.”
About: Hi! I’ve cared for my own cats and dogs for many years and have also helped family and friends care for their pets. I know every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s routine, provide fresh food and water, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind. I work from home most of the time, so I have plenty of time to give pets attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I follow a consistent routine and provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, pet-friendly home with a secure fenced yard. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions. I have two friendly resident cats, so I always make thoughtful introductions and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for during their stay.
“Words cannot express how wonderful Richard and Mystique are and the loving care they provide for our high energy puppy. They treat him like family, and he gives them hugs and kisses during daycare drop off. They also take the time to give our puppy leash training on walks. Absolutely recommend Richard and Mystique.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals for the majority of my life. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk and pet sit for them since I was in high school. I am a very active person and love to take long walks everyday. A long walk is always better with a dog by your side! Please let me know if I can be of assistance to you and your family. Generally, I am available everyday for walks or drop in. Hours vary, but generally 830am- 830pm but happy to work in other hours as needed. At this time I am only providing drop in service in the client home or walks. I do not currently board dogs or care for them in my home.
“My boys LOVED spending the day with him! I knew the moment I picked them up, because they were happy to see me, but not desperate. (Happy like you'd expect after a walk, instead of desperate like you'd expect after a grooming.) If I ever need dog sitting in the area again, I'm absolutely bringing them back!”
“Sara saved our trip! We were camping in the area and planned a day out at the Channel Islands NP (not dog-friendly). Our original doggy sitter canceled on us two days before and we scrambled to find someone last minute. It was a blessing in disguise. Sara is the absolute sweetest! Communication was excellent. She updated us throughout the day with photos and kept our girl busy with playtime, a walk, and a hike. She was able to administer medication too. I can’t say enough good things! Thank you, Sara!”

I have a balcony with an outdoor bed if your dog loves to sunbathe. If your puppy is too young/old or not vaccinated to safely walk on public streets, I can set up a potty station on the balcony.
“We are happy to have found Shelli to care for our senior dog Harold. Shelli was very patient and kind with him when we left him for his first visit. He seemed very calm and happy when we picked him up. We feel confident that Harold will be well cared for by Shelli and her family when we leave him to go out of town .”

“Tefiti LOVES staying with Marina. When we pick her up she greets us and then wants to go back inside with Marina. She took great care of her while she was recovering from an injury. Marina made sure her wound stayed clean and was able to give her medication without any issues.”
“Kelsey was so good with our Kenobi. She followed my instructions and made sure our baby was comfortable at her place, with her dog/s. We’ll use her service again next time for sure! 🤗”

About: Hi! I'm Gabby, a recent CSU Channel Islands graduate with a B. A. in Psychology. I'll be starting my Master's in Counseling Psychology (MFT emphasis) at California Lutheran University this fall. I'm currently looking for part-time dog walking, dog boarding, and drop-in visits that work well with my graduate school schedule. I've loved animals my whole life and began volunteering with Ventura County Animal Services as soon as I turned 18, where I volunteered for about three years. I also started pet sitting in 2019 and have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight house and pet sitting, and boarding dogs in my home. I have two female Labradoodles and two cats, so any dogs staying in my home must be friendly with both dogs and cats. I'm comfortable caring for pets overnight and always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away! Pet care is a regular part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule while I’m in graduate school, so I’m available for daytime and overnight boarding any day of the week, as well as dog walking and drop-in visits. Since I have pets of my own, caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life, and I enjoy making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and love they need while their owners are away. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. My two Labradoodles are indoor dogs, but they have access to a large, securely fenced yard where I let them out throughout the day to run, play, and get plenty of exercise. I don’t have a doggie door because my two cats are indoor-only, so all outdoor time is supervised. My dogs are very friendly and love meeting new dog friends, and my cats are comfortable around dogs, so I only board pets that are friendly with both dogs and cats. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and well-being. At night, my pets have their own comfortable sleeping routines. My older Labradoodle sleeps with my parents, and my younger Labradoodle sleeps with me. Any dog boarding in my home is welcome to sleep in my room if that helps them feel more comfortable, or I’m happy to follow whatever routine works best for them and their owner, such as sleeping in a crate or their own designated sleeping space.
About: Hello, my name is Chantal and I have always had a love for dogs and animals as a whole. As a kid I was raised in a home where we never once went without a dog in the home, so you could say I have a lifetime of experience with dogs. And as a fellow doggie parent I understand that the comfort of dogs always comes first. Though I don’t have career experience with pets, I have done dog sitting in the past for family friends which included a wide variety of breeds and different temperaments. Although I don’t have professional experience with dogs, I hope to give all dogs the same level of love and care that I have since I was a child. I currently work part-time in the evenings, which means I have most of the day to take care of my pets needs, including walks, feeding etc. As a dog walker I would love to offer that time to help take care of someone else’s pets needs for some good exercise and comfort. I currently live in a two bedroom apt with a balcony, but no backyard, so I always make sure to walk my own pets in a timely manner so they can have their potty breaks comfortably.

“We booked Danielle to stay at our place for a few days, but are hiring her to walk our dogs a few times so the dogs get used to her. They're iffy with strangers. She came for a walk this week and I'm really impressed with her calm demeanor when a dog is barking at her. She's patient and I'm confident will win over our boys by they time she stays with us. :)”
“Alyzia was delightful! She came over to meet Dozer before she accepted the bookings. She handled everything professionally and made sure that she came by as scheduled. She truly gave us peace of mind by being so reliable and with the great pictures she sent. We have booked her for our next two trips!”
“Curt is awesome, both our dogs took to him immediately, and I had zero worries about them while we were away! I appreciate Curt’s “can do” attitude—such a relief because many part-time dog walkers have schedules that are super limited. Plus, he has a great sense of humor!”

About: Does your dog like casual strolls through parks? Me too! Do they like going to beach and dipping in the ocean? Me too! Or do they like snuggling on couch and watching Gardeners World & Northern Exposure??? Me too!!! Let’s be friends!!! 🥹❤️ I have had dogs and cats and other pets mostly my whole life. I have a lot experience caring for friends and family dogs, such as Labradors, German Shepherds, Rottweilers, Chihuahuas, Chow-chows, Bichons, Mastiffs, and other mixes. Now that I currently have free time, I would love to care for yours. I have lived with roommates with dogs from Bulldogs, Pitt-bulls, Boxers to Pomeranians. I worked and lived many years on a farm where taking care of three Rottweiler farm dogs at the same time was part of the job description. It did not seem like work at all, because farm life with dogs is absolute bliss. I have an interest in learning about the holistic approach when caring for my dog. I want her to have the most optimal life in the most natural way. I admire Juliette De Baïracli Levy a lot and am currently learning about her work with animals. My approach is friendly yet stern enough for the big furry friends. I love big dogs as I have had lifelong friendships/experience with many Rottweilers and an entire littler of Labradors who are now Seniors. When I was caring for the dogs on the farm, two Rottweilers came as puppies while I was caring for another who was middle to eventually Senior. I would give the Senior medicine. And eventually one of the puppies grew up and got sick and needed medicine too. I believe the Rottweiler is my spirit animal for they always magically show up in my life. <3 My current dog is a big German Shepherd Cattle dog mix, sweetie girl. She is two years old and acts like a big puppy. She is curious with high energy. She is very cute and smart so she tries to test limits, but overall thrives to be a good girl. It makes me proud when I get positive feedback from those that meet her. I am currently working part time as well as studying which allows me to very easily fit in pet care every day in my routine. I am currently unable to share my home for boarding care. I’d be happy to care for them if they need someone present for overnight stays.

“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.”
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Erin and Kennith were amazing. They sent multiple pictures throughout the day and provided updates on how my baby was doing. They were very responsive and stayed connected. Highly recommend if you are looking for a good house to keep your baby at. Thank you both!”
“This was my first time using Rover for my big boy German Shepherd. Tiantian was awesome the whole way through. My boy was very nervous and anxious staying at another home especially without me and Tiantian was incredibly patient and understanding. She sent daily pictures which I was also grateful for. I highly recommend Tiantian to watch your dog. She was outstanding.”
“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.”
“Neda treated our baby girl like an absolute queen! We reached out to her last minute as our usual dog sitter couldn’t watch Roxy. She agreed to let us meet her beforehand and we brought Roxy too- everyone vibed really well! Neda took Roxy on walks and gave us little updates with photos. You can tell Neda really has a passion for animal care and she treated Roxy like one of her own.”
“Stefanie and Matt were fantastic! Updated us with pictures and videos throughout the stay. I know our sweet girl was very well taken care of and she was exhausted when she got home! Thank you so much for welcoming Nova into your home!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Steph was great with my dogs. She was flexible and understanding to my dogs individual needs. She is wonderful and very easy to work with! I look forward to booking with her again soon.”
“Nancy is amazing, and Roxy is the sweetest! My boy dog is very anxious and usually takes a long time to warm up to new people, but Nancy has such a calming presence and truly has the magic touch. She made him feel safe, comfortable, and at home so quickly. Within hours, Nancy was updating me on his progress and sending pictures and videos, which brought me so much comfort and peace of mind. Her attention to detail and level of care are unmatched. She made sure Dale stayed on his feeding and toileting schedule exactly as instructed and took the time to ensure he was well cared for every step of the way. I’m also so grateful to Roxy for helping teach Dale the ropes and for being patient and willing to share her parents and toys with him while still keeping him accountable to the house rules. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Chris was great with Benji, we could tell Benji was having a blast and we’re relieved with the daily updates and pictures sent by him. Will definitely consider rebooking Chris for future occasions”
“We were visiting Las Vegas and needed last‑minute care for our two elderly dogs, and Diane truly went above and beyond. Not only did she welcome both of our girls on short notice, she cared for them for four days during a week of extreme heat — something they wouldn’t have tolerated safely. This was our first time using Rover, and Diane made the entire experience feel easy and reassuring. She was wonderfully communicative from start to finish, sending updates and photos throughout their stay. One of our girls, Sherry, had an upset stomach, and Diane was so attentive and comforting, letting us know she was keeping a close eye on her. Her kindness allowed us to actually relax and enjoy our trip, knowing our dogs were in safe, loving hands. We are incredibly grateful for her care and hope to use her babysitting services again. Diane is truly a gem, and we can’t thank her enough.”
“Ellen was fantastic, she responded promptly and was flexible with my schedule. She took great care of my cat Nalla while I was away. She even had a whole room set up for cats to play and hangout. I would definitely recommend her for all your pet care needs.thanks again Ellen!”
“Erika watched my 2 dogs for 4 days and she was wonderful! My dogs had a fabulous time! She fed them all my special food and also sent pictures. They came home very happy! I highly recommend Erika and I will Definitely use her again!”
“Ilona took great care of my two dogs at the last minute! I usually prefer to do a meet and greet, but circumstances didn’t give me time to do that, and still I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her. She responded quickly to any text and sent pictures. She has a great fully fenced-in backyard that I could tell they loved in the pictures!”
“We were so happy with the care our little dog Lucky received with Andrew and Karrie. We were happy to see the photos of him and he was comfortable and had social time with other pets during his stay. We will definitely book Lucky with Andrew and Karrie for our future travels. Thanks again for being such caring sitters .”
“I give Sara 10 stars. Read the other positive reviews. They are all true. Kiki-Sweet Girl has special needs. Sara keeps her feeling so happy and feeling safe. We did a sample one-night boarding and are continuing with weekly recurring daycare and with multiple night boarding when we travel. Kiki loves Sara so much. Kiki also loves Sara's pup, Casper. No only does Sara do magic with communications with dogs and people, but she has exceptional skills in getting doggies to listen to her and to try their best for her. You will not be disappointed if you get Sara to be one of your dog's special people.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs and cats my entire life and have always considered my pets part of the family. When your pet stays with me, they’ll receive the same love, attention, and care that I give my own fur babies. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—I have a 12-pound Chiweenie and a 180 pound Great Dane—and understand that every pet has their own unique personality, comfort level, and routine. Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, quiet companionship, or a little extra patience while adjusting to a new environment, I’m happy to accommodate their needs. I also have a cat who enjoys having her own space and is comfortable around dogs. Our home is calm, friendly, and welcoming to both canine and feline guests. Your pet will enjoy a safe, spacious home with a secure concrete backyard and plenty of room to relax, play, and explore. My goal is to make every stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! 🐶😻 I work from home and am around all day to let the dogs into the backyard, as well as attend to any car needs they may have! I take serious consideration into the safety and care of the animals in my home! I have extra rooms with nice windows and ventilation in case your animal needs privacy and am around all day to allow them in and outside as you see fit!
