“Rebecca is amazing! I have a 5 month old Samoyed around 35lbs. I was afraid he would cause trouble to her. She was able to wear him out and let him enjoy a lot of play time. He’s completely pooped out! I am very thankful for her and how attentive she is with him. She isn’t like other sitters who takes every pup she can. She’s very thoughtful and arrange pup sizes for boarding. She’s a true sweetheart! Thank you so much Rebecca! 💕”

From morning until night, she did an amazing job at keeping me in the loop of my little fur baby. Thank you so much. Will definitely book again and highly recommend.”
“Omg, she was an amazing dog sitter for our dog, Kkomi! Kkomi is a very sensitive dog—he can tell when he’s not getting enough love and attention, and changes in his environment can easily make him sick. But it seemed like he had such a wonderful time with Mrs. Shin K and her husband. They clearly took great care of him and made him feel comfortable and loved. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I will definitely be reaching out to her again the next time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommend!”
“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Miumiu! From start to finish, the communication was clear, quick, and super friendly. Miumiu was treated like family and came back home happy, relaxed, and well-cared for. It gave me total peace of mind knowing she was in such loving and attentive hands. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets!”
“Julie and Justin were great hosts. My dog was a little difficult and caused a bit of trouble but they were super understanding and gave a lot of good feedback so we know in the future.”
“Anne & Jason did an excellent job caring for our 5 pound dog. They were so good to send me daily pictures and promptly answer any questions I had. We will definitely be using them again and have already booked them for our next trip.”
“Amy went above and beyond to care for my dogs. She sent me daily photo and ensured that my dogs were cared. She also communicated daily with updates on my dogs. I couldnt have asked for a better sitter. Especially around the holiday season. Thank you Amy!”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a dog - loving family, caring for breeds of all sizes - from Labrador Retriever and Beagle to my current Labradoodle. Through the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior and how to care for each pup based on their unique personality and needs. I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and easy to reach - I prioritize clear communication and am available 24/7 for updates or questions. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for your dog, just like home. I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can give them the best possible experience. Please feel free to share any details, preferences, or routines! My husband and I both work from home, so there’s almost always someone here to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. We want every dog in our home to feel safe, comfortable, and included - not like they’re simply being “watched.” Our goal is to keep your dog entertained, secure, and happily engaged while they’re with us. We have a big yard that allows the dogs plenty of outdoor space to run around and sun-bathe when they need to. There are different areas in the house that we can section off if your dog needs more quiet and alone time. We have built a safe and trusting environment to accommodate different needs.
“We left our doggies with Mel for 4 days and he did such a great job with them. He was able to meet their needs and change things around according to their personalities and kept us updated throughout the 4 days. We felt reassured the whole time we were away from the dogs and won’t hesitate to book our dogs with him again. Thanks for your help, Mel!”
“Amazing first time experience booking a last minute boarding with Arthur. He took very good care of my 2 puppies which I had no idea how it was going to be since they are husky. They had 2 dogs of their own and Im glad my girls were able to get along well with theirs since they never had any contact with any other animals. Arthur stayed in contact with me every day and took pictures and videos to ensure us there was nothing to worry about. They look happy and dont seem stress at all. I am confident that he has many experience dealing with pets and I will be booking with him again when ever I need a sitter or to board my 2 girls. Arthur, big THANKS and see you soon!”
“Joyce was able to acommodate a last minute booking for our dog Chewie. She was very communicative, quick to respond, and provided many updates on how Chewie was doing which we really appreciated. Also took a lot of good photos of our dog. Their backyard looks very nice to let the dog roam outside and there are two dog parks very close to their house which is a bonus. Appreciate the hospitality for our dog Chewie from Joyce and Patrick! Thank you”
“I absolutely trust Yessenia with taking care of my fur baby! I’m able to go on vacation and have one less worry because I know Yessenia will do a wonderful job making sure my fur baby is not only fed & walked, but comes home well groomed, happy & with her tail wagging high. 🐕💗”
“Yilin is great! She keep sending videos and pictures when Im gone made me feel like safe and comfortable. Usually my dog will come back very dirty after boarding but Yilin kept her very clean!”

“Julia did a fantastic job caring for our two felines. They immediately trusted her, including our kitty who is usually very hesitant to warm up to people she doesn't know. The fact that she took to Julia right away says a lot about Julia's kind and gentle nature. While we were away, I felt completely at ease knowing our babies were being so well cared for. Julia was reliable, attentive, and clearly has a special connection with animals. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Shelby was amazing! always on time, communicative and very responsive. When we came home, Coco seemed genuinely happy. I really appreciated the updates on her eating and all the photos. I felt completely at ease knowing Coco was in such good hands. Thank you, Shelby!”
“Alexa did a great job. It was so comforting knowing she was checking in on my pets while I was gone. She went above and beyond giving my cat her supplement each day, which isn’t easy. I will definitely be booking her again.”
About: I’ve had cats my whole life and currently have two of my own, so I’m very familiar with their daily care, routines, and personalities.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about the care my Lexi received! From the moment we connected, it was clear that Kathryn treats every dog as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to make Lexi feel comfortable, loved, and happy while I was away. Her attention to detail, constant communication, and genuine affection for my pup truly stood out. I received thoughtful updates, photos, and even little stories about Lexi’s day that made me feel connected and at ease. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated, trustworthy, and compassionate. Lexi came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. If you’re looking for someone extraordinary, someone who doesn’t just “watch” your dog but genuinely loves and cares for them, look no further. She is simply the best, and I am beyond grateful for the peace of mind she gave me.”
“Mel is an excellent dog sitter! We booked our first day care before my dog, Lucifur, was diagnosed with some limiting orthopedic issues that will soon require surgery. That means he now has to have his movement someone restricted to protect him from injury. When I gave Mel this update and asked if he would still be able to care for Lucifur, he was enthusiastic to watch him. In fact, when I arrived on the first day, Mel had thoughtfully set up a secure area for Lucifur to relax in AND had a plan to keep our dogs separated so Lucifur wouldn't get over excited and run/jump around. Mel was really thoughtful in ensuring that Lucifur had an environment that was safe and he put me at ease. Lucifur enjoys hanging out with Mel and Roxy and I feel confident that he's in great hands. Mel will be out #1 Rover choice from now on!”
“Krystal is awesome! By the second day, my dog was excited to pull into her house. She kept me updated throughout the day and was quick to respond. I trusted that my dog was well taken care of. Would highly recommend her :)”

“Valarie has been an amazing dog sitter for us. We are currently visiting Southern California to spend time with family and enjoy Disneyland, and we entrusted Valarie with our puppy while we spent the day at the park. Everything went great, and as a result, we are now repeat clients. We’ve booked Valarie several times since then to care for our puppy during activities where dogs aren’t allowed. We highly recommend Valarie to any pet owners seeking a trustworthy and caring sitter who will treat their furry family member as her own.”

About: Hey fur mom and dad! My name is Ary. A little bit about myself is I am a pre-nursing student currently enrolled online through Arizona State University where I plan to earn a Bachelors in Science in Nursing. When I am not working on school work, I am spending time with family and friends, walking my own fur babies or volunteering at my local animal shelter. I currently have 3 dachshunds, 1 Chihuahua, and 1 Maltipoo-Terrier mix as my children. I have grown up in a family of dog lovers where they taught me to treat animals with love, kindness, and like your children. To say I love dogs is an understatement. My dream is to one day open an animal/dog sanctuary so I can foster dogs, rehabilitate them, and find them safe homes without fear of euthanasia. Dogs have the ability to heal people without ever saying a word. They’re family. Other than raising multiple dogs through out my childhood, I have 2 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking. I also have 1 year of experience volunteer at my local animal shelter where I walk, feed, and love on these beautiful dogs. As I mentioned previously, I am schooling online so my availability to care for your babies is mostly open except for somedays of the week after 6 pm as I also work part time. My schedule can be adjusted given a week’s notice ahead of time as your pets are my number 1 priority. Feel free to message me about any schedule concerns and I guarantee we can come to a solution together! When it comes to caring for your pets, it is my job to pick up their pre-existing routines and also make sure they can make fun and safe new activities with Fur Auntie Ary. I can’t wait to meet some new furry friends and earn your trust as well as theirs. See you all soon!

When the Rover app was down, she made sure to reach out quickly so we could stay in touch — I really appreciated her communication and professionalism. She’s responsible and caring, and I feel confident knowing my dog is in good hands with her. I highly recommend Joyce!”
“Shelby is a lifesaver! She accepted my last-minute Christmas request and even suggested a meet and greet beforehand to ensure a good fit. She walked Sushi for the exact time and distance requested, even with rain in the forecast. Reliable, professional, and dedicated—I can’t thank her enough for taking good care of Sushi for the first booking!!”

About: For over 12 years, I’ve dedicated myself to being the best pet parent I can be, caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, as well as cats. My passion for animals goes beyond just the basics; I believe every pet deserves attentive, loving care and a healthy, happy environment. I treat every pet in my care the same way I treat my own, with patience, consistency, and a whole lot of love. Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life.

Whether it’s a morning walk, midday check-in, or evening cuddle session, I make sure every pet in my care gets consistent attention throughout the day. When caring for a pet in their own home, my priority is to keep their routine as normal as possible, because familiar surroundings and schedules help pets feel safe and stress-free. I follow any instructions the owner provides regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and preferences. I treat every client’s home with the utmost respect and keep communication open by sending updates, photos, and messages so owners always know their pet is in good hands. I bring the same level of care and attention to your pet that I give to my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since high school with my first dog. I start helping my host family’s and friends’ dog after I move out for school and work. I usually off on Mon, Tues and Fri, but sometimes could be more days off. I start with my day at 0630am weekdays no matter work or off. Please feel free to chat with me and ask questions. I’m more than welcome to meet with you and your lovely dog before any plan.
About: I've always loved animals and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats! I've owned them, so I understand the daily care, attention, and patience pets need. I also lived with roommates who had cats, which gave me experience helping care for them as well. I'm dependable, patient, and will treat your pets like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate more time and attention to your babies. I'm available for longer visits, walks, playtime, and/or keeping them company throughout the day. I live in a house with a fenced backyard and plenty of indoor space for pets to feel comfortable. There aren't many people in my home, so I can give your pet lots of attention and closely monitor their needs. I make sure they always have fresh water, and a clean/safe environment. I also pay close attention to their behavior and well-being, and I’m happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident they’re doing well while you’re away.
About: I have been around and taken care of puppies and dogs since I was a little girl. Ever since then, my love and care towards dogs has grown. I’ve had family members and friends ask me to walk or take care of their pups sometimes. I even have a dog of my own named Luna 😊 I am working a part time job at the moment, which allows me to have free time to be able to hang out with your fur babies! ☺️ I have a comfortable and safe environment with plenty of access for your dog. I also follow any rules that are given to me in order to make your dog have a happy and productive time.
About: Hello! My name is Shin Kim. I’m a retired animal lover who has cared for dogs for many years. I have a calm, gentle nature and truly enjoy spending time with pets. Whether it’s a walk in the neighborhood, feeding time, or quiet cuddles at home, I make sure every dog feels safe and loved. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly home and only take a few dogs at a time so I can give them my full attention. I also love sending photo updates, so you’ll always know how your furry friend is doing! Since I’m retired, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to spend time caring for dogs every day through walks, playtime, fun, meals, and companionship. I care for pets by providing meals, water, walks, playtime, attention, supervision, cozy rest areas, and treats, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved daily.
About: I'm super patient and I'm very attentive. I just love looking after others in general and I find joy in work like this. I've looked after my sick parents and after my sibling most of my life, I was also one of the eldest kids in my church community so I was depended on to look after them a lot of the times as well. From there I was depended on for other things like looking after the occasional pet by family friends from the church and from my own friends. As of right now regularly help take care of my girlfriend's little Pomeranian and I love him. Right now, all I am is a full-time student so other than my classes I have very little commitment and will be free for most requests. Even if my schedule overlaps I also have a very flexible schedule so I don't have to consider if I'm free too much. When with a pet, I am not just physically present but mentally too, ready to anticipate any need and determine how to satisfy it. Always ready to look out for any potential danger and on my toes to be ready to deal with anything if needed.
About: TLDR: 1) I’ve taken care of dogs for 4+ years 2) I love hiking and long walks 3) Dogs tend to like me and I like them My fur-nephews are away and I miss them. Both my siblings have dogs and I've taken care of them over the years. Now, your dog instead, can be spoiled by my care. I can walk your dog around the neighborhood, to parks, and maybe even to a dog-park if you'd like. I'm the person that you run into the park or on the sidewalk that starts talking to you because your dog is just that cute and I want to pet him/her. I’m currently working part-time so my schedule is flexible and we can see when could work best for our schedules. Preferably walks and/or visits are when the sun is still out. It’s important for us to have a chat so that I know what your pet’s likes, dislikes, and rules are. Once that is shared, I’ll use it to provide the best experience for your pet! :)

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up in a dog - loving family, caring for breeds of all sizes - from Labrador Retriever and Beagle to my current Labradoodle. Through the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of dog behavior and how to care for each pup based on their unique personality and needs. I’m very detail-oriented, responsible, and easy to reach - I prioritize clear communication and am available 24/7 for updates or questions. My goal is to create a safe, fun, and loving environment for your dog, just like home. I’d love to learn more about your pup and how I can give them the best possible experience. Please feel free to share any details, preferences, or routines! My husband and I both work from home, so there’s almost always someone here to keep your dog company and make sure they’re well cared for throughout the day. We want every dog in our home to feel safe, comfortable, and included - not like they’re simply being “watched.” Our goal is to keep your dog entertained, secure, and happily engaged while they’re with us. We have a big yard that allows the dogs plenty of outdoor space to run around and sun-bathe when they need to. There are different areas in the house that we can section off if your dog needs more quiet and alone time. We have built a safe and trusting environment to accommodate different needs.
“We left our doggies with Mel for 4 days and he did such a great job with them. He was able to meet their needs and change things around according to their personalities and kept us updated throughout the 4 days. We felt reassured the whole time we were away from the dogs and won’t hesitate to book our dogs with him again. Thanks for your help, Mel!”

“Rengang’s whole family took great care of my high energy rescue! They had at least a few family members at home watching the dogs at all times, and all of them shared an amazing love of animals and willingness to fulfill the animals’ needs. They were also very quick to respond to questions with updates and reassurance, and I can tell my dog had a great time boarding. Will be returning for sure!”
