“I wanted to share my wonderful experience with Jenny and her family. From the pictures sent, they were incredibly attentive and loving towards my Stormy. She sent daily updates with pictures, which gave me great peace of mind. My 🐶 seemed happy and well-cared for upon my return, which is all I could ask for. I highly recommend this provider to anyone needing reliable and compassionate dog care. Also, can't forget to mention she accomdate my same day request for dog care. She even came home with a new bandana 💜”
“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We left our golden retriever with this wonderful family and their golden while we were out of town celebrating our son’s birthday. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent and they made us feel completely at ease. Our dog had the best time — it was her very first time staying with another golden retriever, and the two of them clearly had a blast together! Knowing she was in such loving, attentive hands allowed us to fully enjoy our family trip without worry. The updates and photos we received were such a treat. This family clearly adores dogs and provides genuine, caring, home-away-from-home care. We are already planning to book them again for our next trip. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Shardae provided lots of picture and updates. My pup was always smiling, I could tell he really enjoyed all the attention and love he was getting! Will definitely book again.”
“Great host for our dog!! Very good communication with frequent updates and even pictures and videos. We know he had a good time. We would book with Tatiana again.”
“Stephanie was great! Wonderful communication and prompt responses. She sent lots of photos throughout our dogs stay which made us feel very comfortable and happy. This was our first Rover and Wes can be difficult, so we really appreciate all the care and love Stephanie gave him!”
“Our dog Daisy did quite well with Vanessa. And we really appreciated her organizing a "meet and greet" prior to her stay, as this was the first time for Daisy to board anywhere ever. Overall. We are quite happy to have found a host for Daisy that we can trust. Thank you, Vanessa!”
About: I Grew up with dogs and have two of my own. Boarded dogs since I was in college. Worked with different types of dogs and families! I work different jobs and mostly from home. I have two boys (12 & 10). They are well behaved and always help me with the boarding pups whenever they can The backyard is closed and fenced. I have artificial turf for pups to go potty. And the rest is concrete and river rocks. Fence on both sides to provide privacy and protection
“We always know that Lulu is in good hands with Beverly. Lulu always has a great time staying there, and Beverly takes the time to let Lulu play in the water (which she quickly discovered is Lulu’s favorite). Beverly is also very responsive. Lulu always looks forward to her visits.”
About: I’ve been officially pet sitting consistently since 2024 and have built my client base through word-of-mouth referrals and repeat bookings. I grew up with dogs but through petsitting, have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, tortoises, betta fish, shrimp, and chameleons. Most of my experience is with overnight stays ranging from weekend trips to 1–2 week vacations. I’m detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely while keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout their trip. As a powerlifter and active person, I’m comfortable with both short and long walks and can keep up with high-energy & strong dogs. I work in-office during weekdays but am available mornings, evenings, overnights, and am fully flexible on weekends. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work in an office Monday through Friday, so I'm most flexible on weekends. For pets that are comfortable being home during the workday, I'm available for feeding, bathroom, and walks before work, in the evenings, overnight, and throughout the weekend. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible to either board your pet in my home, stay at your home whether for drop in visits or overnight stays, whatever you and your pet feel works best for their comfort. Prior to the stay, (my home or yours), we will go over your pet’s routine and your expectations to make sure this is a good fit before moving forward.
“Kyle was very communicative and responsive. We met up a day or so before our scheduled boarding and did a meet and greet. Our dogs got along well and made the drop off much easier and stress-free. Our dog came back happy and well cared for. We look forward to using Kyle again in the future.”
“Gina is amazing! We were extremely nervous to leave our puppy with someone we didn’t know, but she made us completely comfortable. She was so welcoming to our little guy that he made himself at home instantly and didn’t even seem to notice when we left. Gina was with him the whole time and provided consistent updates. It was an overall great experience for all of us!”
“My dogs stayed with Taylor for the weekend and they had the most incredible time . They came back so happy , and I felt at such peace knowing they were in great hands . Taylor took the time to pick up and drop off my dogs. She also sent me pictures and updates throughout the weekend which I really appreciated. She is extremely kind , welcoming and responsive .”
“Great sitter. They follow all the instructions, making sure my dog was safe and well taking care of. My doggy enjoy staying at Quing. Will ask in the future to take care of my doggy again.”
“As usual, Jami & Frances were fantastic! My dog Murphy is pretty much a regular with them. They love him and treat him like family every time he stays with them. Communication is always clear and timely and I couldn't ask for a better sitter. They are simply wonderful.”
“Aubrey is very attentive to our dog’s needs. Goose is a nervous girl, and Aubrey takes care to make sure that she’s comfortable. She also checked in with us when Goose showed some pain/concerning behavior (she has an existing knee problem) and followed up with what care we recommended. She was communicative and obviously loves animals!”

About: I love kitties! a little different from dogs but equally as fun and loving. I like to feed stray cats in my free time and play with my own at home! I spend a lot of my time cleaning litter boxes and grooming my own cat, so i’m more than willingly to be another friend to yours.
“Stephanie was absolutely amazing!! She was so sweet and great at communicating. My cat, Socks, really warmed up to her and was happy at every visit. She also brought in packages for us. I will definitely be contacting her again. Thank you so much!”
“This is the second time Carolyn has taken care of our cats and she’s the best! She is always on time, sends thorough updates and plenty of photos! My cats feel at ease with her, enjoy her company and it gives me peace of mind that they are well taken care of. I highly recommend Carolyn.”
About: After we lost my childhood Maltipoo, Chibi, to old age after Covid, we were heart broken. Chibi had lived a long 18 years with us but unfortunately, it became her time. After months of healing, a stray would often make its way into our backyard and we would feed and care for it. At this time, my stepdad did not want any more pets, so we could not keep her. Fortunately, he saw how happy (Tesla) made us and he allowed us to bring her inside. My mom took her to the vet soon after and we discovered she was chipped. (Tesla) had been missing for well over 6 months traveling from Hermosa Beach to Torrance! Her family was ecstatic to have her back and it was during Christmas time, which was truly a Christmas miracle. We were sad to lose her, but felt like we did a good deed returning her home. Because of what happened, my stepdad allowed us to adopt a cat. We were connected to an animal rescue through a friend and soon after, we adopted our furbaby, Misha. Misha is a 10lb female Tuxedo (domestic short hair) with a white mustache. She loves to play, fetch (yes, fetch!), eat, and sleep. What a life! She isn’t a lap cat, but she is social enough that she always wants to be near you. She is also a woman of many nicknames such as: Minky, Mimi, Misha Moo, MishMish, etc. She truly has brought so much joy to our lives and I can’t imagine a home without her.
“We booked Stephanie for drop-in visits for our two high-energy dogs. She was punctual, made sure they got their energy out, and sent us great photos. We came home to a happy, tired pups and will definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve lost my poodle of 17 years recently. I have 17 years of experience caring for animals.

I can crate your dog in my home if needed. I do live in an apartment but right next to a lovely park for our daily walks!
“This was my first time using Rover and Sami exceeded all expectations! Sami stayed at my place for 2 days and my kitty Jackson absolutely loved her. She was so communicative and sent tons of updates with pictures. Highly recommend booking Sami!”
“Shannon went above and beyond in caring for our two cats! I appreciated her for jumping in for our sort of last minute request and doing such a great job. She communicates well, asks great questions — and her updates and pictures gave us peace of mind while we were out of town. She also got the cats to warm up to her so quickly so huge plus. Highly recommend”
“Ginny took such phenomenal care of my kitties and my Apartment! Couldn’t ask for better! Apparently a plumbing back up happened from the neighbors upstairs and Ginny contacted me right away and stayed there to let maintenance repair it. So thankful she was there and she cleaned up everything after. My kitties are very happy and love her so much!! Thank you again Ginny and we will see you again super soon!”
“Kevin is great! Our cats love him and he’s been our go to sitter when we are out of town. He plays w our cats and they get some loves when we are away! Highly recommend Kevin!”
“The only person we trust with our kitties! She’s amazing and has even gotten our shy kitten out of her shell while we were away. Absolutely the best! And her updates are SO thorough and amazing!”
“"I can’t recommend Leiah enough! She is professional, down-to-earth, friendly, and an excellent communicator. From our meet and greet, it was clear she truly loves dogs and knows how to engage with them. She is punctual and provides great updates (and awesome photos!) which gives me total peace of mind while I’m away. If you're looking for someone trustworthy who will treat your dog like her own, Leiah’s the needle in the haystack you are looking for!"”
“I’m very happy that Chieko took good care of my cat while I was out of town. She sent me pictures and updates every time she came, so that I could be sure my cat was doing OK. Not only taking care of my cat but she also took care of me how to navigate the app step by step. I’ll be requesting her again next time.”
“Courtney took care of Taco for 10 days at her place, I am so thankful. She kept me updated and sent photos while I was out of the country. I’ve never left him this long, but she made sure he was given all the cuddles and attention he needed. Definitely recommend her! I will be coming back to her in the future. Thanks again Courtney!!”
About: I’ve had my fur baby for over a year now and have lived with cats in the past! I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box cleaning, giving them lots of attention if they want it and keeping them happy and safe while you’re away!

“Chieko was an amazing sitter!! She took really good care of my dog, Sunny. She went to take Sunny for a long walk and fed him snacks+food. I felt safe leaving my dog with Chieko.”
About: I’ve take care of every type of animal you can even think of, I’ve had rabbits, dogs, reptiles, cats, horses, guinea pigs, turtles, whatever you name I’ve taken care of it. If someone asked me to take care of their pet raccoon, I’d do it. I always have and always will be an animal Lover. I am part/full time and I’m open whatever days I’m needed. I’m available during the weekdays if you have work and weekends I’d you are busy. I have a fenced yard and my home is always welcome to any dog but if the owner would rather me stay at their home that’s okay with me too.
“Tofu had a great time with Pia for doggy daycare! She was with Pia for two days, and Pia did a wonderful job of taking care of her. Pia was very responsive and provided updates, as well as taking Tofu out for walks + feeding her dinner. Overall, would definitely recommend and rebook with her in the future!”
About: As a pet owner myself, I understand that leaving your pet can be difficult. I am here to ease your mind with detail and care. I am currently studying and working remotely so I just have some set hours of work I need to do, but I can still keep an eye on your pets I can and will follow any and all instructions for your pets and home. I am responsible and respectful while also very caring towards your pets.
About: Hi! My name is Taylor & I’m a lifelong animal lover. I’ve had dogs & cats my entire life, so caring for them & connecting with them has always felt natural to me. I’ve worked with all kinds of breeds & personalities. Because of that, whether a dog is big, tiny, energetic, shy, or anything in between, I feel completely comfortable. Dogs are 100% little angels & gifts. They depend on our love & care, & I’m genuinely grateful every time someone trusts me with their fur baby. I treat every pet like my own & always go above & beyond to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, & loved. I know how important it is to trust your dog sitter, & I value that responsibility with my whole heart. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have. I’d love to meet you both & set up a booking whenever you’re ready. Thanks! 😊 I currently work remotely, which gives me the flexibility to spend plenty of time with your pup throughout the day. I love being able to take them on 2–3 walks, give them lots of attention, & make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I truly love animals & will treat your pup like my own. I have a spacious one-bedroom apartment with a park conveniently located right next to my complex, making it easy for pups to get plenty of fresh air, exercise, & enrichment. I live a very active lifestyle & regularly walk about 5 miles a day, so your dog will have lots of opportunities to get out & explore. Most dogs in my care enjoy at least 1–2 hours of walks daily, depending on their age, energy level, & individual needs. Whether we’re strolling through the neighborhood, walking along the beach, or hitting a local hiking trail, I love making sure dogs get the exercise, attention, & adventure they deserve. When I’m house sitting, I care for your home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I’m incredibly grateful for the trust my clients place in me, & I always make sure to thoroughly clean up after myself & leave your home just as I found it. I also know how important updates are when you’re away from your furry family member! I send lots of photos throughout the day, including updates from walks, meals, treats, playtime, relaxation time, & bedtime, so you can feel connected & know exactly how your pet is doing. And if your pup is used to sleeping in bed with their humans, that’s perfectly fine with me! My goal is to make them feel as comfortable, loved, & at home as possible while you’re away. I truly love caring for animals & treat every pet as if they were my own. 😊
“Kimberly was awesome! She was very accommodating to my last minute request for a sitter. She sent plenty of photos and updates of my puppy and took her on 3 big walks! I love that she has a fenced yard for my dog to run around in. My pup came home very tired, which is a great indicator that she had a fun day. I will definitely use Kimberly again and would recommend her to anyone!”
“Kyle was quick to reply to a last minute dog sitting request, and I’m so grateful he was able to help. He was flexible, accommodating, and very responsive throughout the entire process. This was my first time putting my puppy in daycare, but he reassured me and made me feel confident that my puppy was in good hands. He clearly has experience with puppies and even puppy socialization. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Connie’s place the absolute best! Even after my dog has stayed with her so many time she continues to send pictures and videos while I’m away. I even got to FaceTime my pup! She is so great and truly understands what I and my dog need to be comfortable being away from each other. Logan literally pulls me to her house he loves it so much. I highly recommend Connie to anyone who loves their dog enough to really care where they’re going and how they’re being treated. Thank you Connie!”
“If you’re in need of someone to care for your dog, Alice is the person I trust the most! She is my go-to sitter whenever I’m out for a day or an entire vacation. In August, she took him in for 3 weeks while I was in the Philippines and as much as I missed him, I knew he was in wonderful hands! She’s caring and attentive. I really appreciated the updates she would send. In his most recent stay, she babysat for a day and I never had to worry! Again, if you’re looking for someone you can trust, it’s Alice!”
“Amazing! He said my puppy was going to be his first! From start to finish, he responded quick, very friendly. I could tell that my puppy had a lot of fun because she got home and she went straight to bed. On the other hand, I had a big issue, I had a flat tire in the middle of the road while taking Schatzi to his house and I let him know and he offered to pick Schatzi up. Another huge plus. He offered to help me out with my flat tire, he put my spare tire so I could go to the tire shop. I am really grateful to have met him. I could tell that he was wonderful with my baby. Thank you again!”
“This was “Kobe’s” second time staying with Elaine. I knew I had made the right choice because when I dropped him off, he recognized the place and got super excited, like when we go to the dog park or the dog beach. Elaine and her husband are wonderful dog sitters, and I’m very pleased with their doggie hospitality.”
About: I’ve spent the last 10 years walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and caring for animals is truly one of my favorite parts of life. I’m super active, love being outdoors, and I’m always excited to take your pets on runs, hikes, or long adventures. If your pet prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy to enjoy cozy couch cuddles and calm hang-outs. I’m also a cat mom, so I fully understand the different needs and quirks of both dogs and cats. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping their routine consistent, your pet will be treated like family. My partner and I both have very flexible schedules, which means one of us is always home and available to give your pet attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 💛🐶🐱 I’m self-employed and work entirely on my own schedule, and my boyfriend does the same. Because of that flexibility, we’re able to ensure that someone is always home to give your cat consistent care, attention, and supervision. Your baby will never be left alone for long periods — they’ll have company, comfort, and plenty of love throughout the day. We live in a home with a spacious, fully fenced backyard that has plenty of sun and grass for your pet to enjoy safely. We’re also just one block from a large park with a huge open grass field, perfect for playtime, walks, and outdoor enrichment. I’m a very clean and organized person, and I always clean up after pets and keep spaces tidy. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure everything stays neat, maintained, and respected while you’re away.
“Zahara was amazing with my dog! 🐾 She asked for details beforehand and even invited me to check out her place before the stay, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. While I was away, she sent pictures and videos, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. She’s super friendly and really attentive to my dog’s needs. Highly recommend! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”
“Five stars—no hesitation. Christy adores dogs, especially golden retrievers. We left our golden pup, Honey, with her for one day while we hit Disneyland. When we returned Honey had several new BFFs: Christy and her canine savvy family, with couch-snuggle photos as proof; and Phoebe (Christy’s own golden retriever). Christy’s day plan nailed all Honey's need—timed meals and potty breaks along with the perfect play–nap balance. Christy sent updates and snapshots, so we stayed relaxed and guilt free at the park. I had zero pet-parent stress. When I picked up Honey she trotted out tail-wagging, paws dragging, slightly heavier (treats happen!) and blissfully wiped out. We all slept like babies after our day at Disneyland, including the dog. Safe arms, golden fluency, endless love—Christy is our go-to sitter. Book Christy—your retriever will thank you!”
“My pup, Piper spent the day with Bethany and her family and had a great time. She was comfortable as soon as she got there - Piper knew right away that she was in a dog friendly place.”
“Comfortable and relaxing outdoor space was great! Gina was very gentle with Pumpkin who was very shy at first. This was her first experience of day-care and Gina said she did great. I was very happy to see her photos that Gina took during the day. Very grateful for that! Pumpkin will be staying with Gina for two nights soon. I hope she enjoys her time with Gina like she did last time. Thank you so much for the gentle care, Gina. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!”
“Summit loved hanging out with Jasmine for the day! She was very communicative and I appreciated the proactive meet and greet. Would definitely use her again and recommend her”

About: I have two dogs and one cat currently but three cats in the past! I love all animals and feel connected towards them. I have been working specifically dog walking and sitting for about two years on apps like wag. I am a psychology major and want to work with service animals in the future! I am in school finishing up my degree and minor and mostly do online. I want to work with service animals so dog walking and sitting is a perfect way to gain experience and knowledge on all different kinds of animals and breeds. I care immensely and treats all animals like my own. I want people to be able to feel comfortable with me around their animals and inside their home. I know it takes a lot of trust and vulnerability to let someone you don’t personally know inside your home, so i want to make the experience for everyone as easy as possible. I like to give updates and response quickly to pet parents.
About: I have been lucky enough to take care of animals for over 12 years. My first job was at an animal shelter where I was responsible for feeding, medication, walks and training dogs on how to acclimate to a new home. Since then I have worked in every aspect of animal care including sitting (12 years), training (10 years) and grooming (4 years). A proud pet parent myself, I will treat your animal as family. I am currently project based, and as such am available full time to take care of pet's needs. Extended stays (7 days or more) will require more notice than others. I know that pets thrive with routine. I will do everything I can to make your pet feel completely at ease in your absence and will send photos and progress reports every day. I also take safety very seriously, and no measure is too much in order to make sure your house and pet are secure and well taken care of.
About: I’ve been working with animals for over 25 years, including 10 years as a veterinary technician and as a behavioral dog trainer. As a former vet tech, I’m comfortable administering medications (oral, topical, injectable), monitoring special-needs pets, and caring for both senior dogs and tiny puppies who need a little extra attention. My background in animal behavior allows me to read a dog’s body language, support anxious or high-energy pups, and create a calm, positive experience on every walk. Whether your dog needs structure, gentle reinforcement, behavior training, or just a patient friend, I’m confident, capable, and committed to their safety and comfort. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I’m currently not working a traditional job, which gives me plenty of time to focus on walking, caring for, and spending quality time with your fur baby. My schedule is very flexible — mornings, afternoons, evenings, and last-minute bookings all work for me. I love being outdoors, staying active, and making every walk a positive, enriching experience for the dogs I care for. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I prioritize comfort, consistency, and following your routine exactly as you outline it. I’m a detail-oriented and caring individual, so whether your pet needs medication, a specific feeding schedule, gentle reassurance, or extra playtime, I make sure everything is done just the way you prefer. My goal is to keep your pet feeling safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since childhood. Everything from Dachshunds to Saint Bernards. I’ve helped train them as puppies and have given them extra love in senior years. Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me to help with their fur babies. I have a strong love and passion for animals and would love to help you with yours. I am looking for extra, fun ways to make money during the week. I have a strong love and passion for animals. I am currently working part-time and my shifts typically don’t start until 4pm, so I am free most mornings for dog walking. I care for pets as if they’re my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely while also paying attention to the pet’s behavior and environment to ensure they feel secure and stress-free. I keep litter boxes and feeding areas clean, provide enrichment through play and affection (as appropriate for the pet), and monitor for any changes in health or behavior. I communicate regularly with pet parents and always act in the pet’s best interest.
About: I’ve lost my poodle of 17 years recently. I have 17 years of experience caring for animals. Filling the void by caring for all your lovely pets :) I am currently working from home Monday-Friday and am totally open during the weekends, giving me a lot of time to take care of your pups! I can crate your dog in my home if needed. I do live in an apartment but right next to a lovely park for our daily walks!
About: I’ve had my own dog, Lou, for the past three years, and caring for him has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Ever since I was a child, I dreamed of having a dog my own. I even asked for one every birthday and holiday, and when I couldn’t have one, I collected stuffed animals instead. When I finally got Lou, I treated him like family. I dedicated my summer breaks to training him, even waking up at 3 a.m. to stay consistent with his routine and help him become a well behaved, happy dog. Caring for Lou has taught me patience, responsibility, and the importance of understanding each dog’s unique personality. I’ll care for your pet with the same love, attention, and dedication that I give my own. Weekends are when I’m most available! I’m happy to help with walks, drop-in visits, or pet sitting. If you need weekday care, feel free to reach out. I’ll always do my best to accommodate with your schedule! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member. I care for every pet with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own dog, Lou. Working part-time has taught me to stay organized, responsible, and keep spaces clean and well maintained. I’ve also worked as a dance teacher’s assistant my senior year of High School, where I learned the importance of being dependable, attentive, and creating a safe, positive environment. You can count on me to follow your pet’s routine carefully, communicate with you, and make sure your furry family member feels safe and cared for while you’re away. As well as always keeping you updated throughout the day!
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember; I’ve had several of all sizes throughout my life, and they were like siblings to me. I love dogs of all kinds; wherever I go, they seek me out, greet me, and let me pet them. I think that’s a great sign that I connect with them. I am a freelance videographer and video editor. I set my own schedule, so at any moment I can pause my editing work to go walk dogs or look after my son's cat when he travels. Yes, often. I take two dogs for a walk every day; I've been doing it for years, and babysitting my son's cat when he travels.
“Thank you, Carissa! Our babies are well taken care of when you are in charge. We appreciate you, your dedication to a job well done, attentiveness, and love for J & J. 🐶🐶”
“Elika did amazing! She was flexible in my need for a last min dog walker, was so kind, and left lots of pictures and details about their walk after. Would highly recommend! 😊”
“My 5 year old doodle has been walking with Jailene for over a week now. We decided our pup needed more midday exercise than we could provide, so Jailene swooped right in to come on time everyday: friendly, confident, professional, and no frills. My dog even looks cool walking with her! They get an uphill mile in each weekday for 30 mins and our pup comes back worked, happy, and relaxed. It's been very easy to communicate with Jailene and we trust that our dog is in good hands.”
About: Hello, My name is Deidre but I also go by Dre. I joined Rover not only because i treat all pets like family to expand my knowledge in pet care and to provide a helping hand with pet parents. I am experienced with caring for small/medium sized dogs and cats. For dogs, I am experienced with walks, drop in visits and light pet care. I am open to puppies. For cats I have taken care of one in my past and would like to grow in this experience as well. I am currently working part time, but I expect to be available in most afternoons and evenings in weekdays and weekends all day but weekends vary. Please message me for more details I will respond as soon as possible. I can crate dogs if necessary but I am first patience with pets who are apart from their parent for the first time and use gentle approaches to calm them down like soothing noises, gentle petting/cuddling and if we brought the nervousness down as low as possible I will give them a treat
“Chieko has been walking our dog regularly for a couple of months now, and she has been wonderful to work with! She's easy to communicate with and I can tell she absolutely loves animals. Would highly recommend booking Chieko for any of your pet care needs!”
“Susan has been walking our dog Giuseppe for a few weeks, multiple times a week and we can’t say enough great things about her. Susan is kind, punctual, and our dog loves her. She always gives us a recap of his walk and we fully trust our little guy in her care. Thank you Susan!”
“Courtney has been great with walking our 2 year old dog Boba! She is on time, great at communication, and very friendly and patient with our pup. She took the time to get to know all the little quirks of our puppy and every morning Boba is excited to see her. Highly recommend Courtney :)”
About: I've cared for my own dog for several years and have also helped take care of family members' dogs. Through this experience, I've learned how to feed, walk, play with, and provide attention to pets. I'm responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs patience, care, and consistency, which I am happy to provide! I have very open availability and can make time throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular routine and will make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you're away. I am reliable, communicative, and happy to provide for all your needs! I care for every pet as if they were my own. Having experience caring for my own dog and family dogs, I understand the importance of following feeding schedules, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided by owners. I prioritize safety by keeping pets supervised, ensuring gates and doors are secure. I am confident in my ability to provide a calm, comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and loved.
About: I’ve take care of every type of animal you can even think of, I’ve had rabbits, dogs, reptiles, cats, horses, guinea pigs, turtles, whatever you name I’ve taken care of it. If someone asked me to take care of their pet raccoon, I’d do it. I always have and always will be an animal Lover. I am part/full time and I’m open whatever days I’m needed. I’m available during the weekdays if you have work and weekends I’d you are busy. I have a fenced yard and my home is always welcome to any dog but if the owner would rather me stay at their home that’s okay with me too.
“My did a wonderful job with my 2 dogs while I was out of town! She was professional, timely, and very caring towards my dogs. I have large dogs and she was well equipped to handle them. Will definitely use My again!”
About: I originally grew up taking care of rabbits,guinea pigs, and chinchillas, which included grooming / shaving/ nail clippings and baths. I even litter trained them myself. I learned at a young age how to be gentle with all types of small animals and the importance of a clean environment. I am also available for exotic animal drop in visit care services (rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas). In my later years I fell in love with dogs and cats. I rescued all of my cats from trees and crawl spaces and learned how to cut their nails as well. When I got my first schnauzer - I learned the joy of training, patience, and positive reinforcement. My favorite thing to do is walk and spend time with animals, so it only makes sense that I create a lifestyle conducive to the things that bring me joy. I love spoiling dogs with special treats and I always talk to them like I would a person because they are so smart and pick up so many words. Walking with dogs outside, playing, chasing squirrels, and the joy of fresh air is my favorite thing to do. No walk is ever long enough for me. I am highly interactive and assertive to animals needs and I know how important positive energy is for their wellness. A good environment allows them to thrive and trust the company they are with. I am currently working part time, and I have a somewhat flexible work schedule, so pet care is something I enjoy and do daily as I have a pup of my own. I share my pup part time with my ex partner, so I have many days available to help take care of other animals. If it was completely up to me I’d have a tiny farm. I love animals so much and walking dogs is my absolute favorite pastime. I live in a one bedroom apartment with my cat Penny. My pup visits me two days a week. My cat is very dog friendly because she is used to my pup visiting twice a week. Fresh water, teeth brushing, home cooked meals/kibble are all things I do and I have stairs for smaller dogs to come on my couch. No areas in my home are off limits to pets.

“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We left our golden retriever with this wonderful family and their golden while we were out of town celebrating our son’s birthday. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent and they made us feel completely at ease. Our dog had the best time — it was her very first time staying with another golden retriever, and the two of them clearly had a blast together! Knowing she was in such loving, attentive hands allowed us to fully enjoy our family trip without worry. The updates and photos we received were such a treat. This family clearly adores dogs and provides genuine, caring, home-away-from-home care. We are already planning to book them again for our next trip. Highly, highly recommend!”
“Shardae provided lots of picture and updates. My pup was always smiling, I could tell he really enjoyed all the attention and love he was getting! Will definitely book again.”
“Stephanie was great! Wonderful communication and prompt responses. She sent lots of photos throughout our dogs stay which made us feel very comfortable and happy. This was our first Rover and Wes can be difficult, so we really appreciate all the care and love Stephanie gave him!”
About: I’ve been officially pet sitting consistently since 2024 and have built my client base through word-of-mouth referrals and repeat bookings. I grew up with dogs but through petsitting, have experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, tortoises, betta fish, shrimp, and chameleons. Most of my experience is with overnight stays ranging from weekend trips to 1–2 week vacations. I’m detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely while keeping owners updated with photos and messages throughout their trip. As a powerlifter and active person, I’m comfortable with both short and long walks and can keep up with high-energy & strong dogs. I work in-office during weekdays but am available mornings, evenings, overnights, and am fully flexible on weekends. My goal is simple: to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I work in an office Monday through Friday, so I'm most flexible on weekends. For pets that are comfortable being home during the workday, I'm available for feeding, bathroom, and walks before work, in the evenings, overnight, and throughout the weekend. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and take pride in following care instructions closely so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m flexible to either board your pet in my home, stay at your home whether for drop in visits or overnight stays, whatever you and your pet feel works best for their comfort. Prior to the stay, (my home or yours), we will go over your pet’s routine and your expectations to make sure this is a good fit before moving forward.
“Gina is amazing! We were extremely nervous to leave our puppy with someone we didn’t know, but she made us completely comfortable. She was so welcoming to our little guy that he made himself at home instantly and didn’t even seem to notice when we left. Gina was with him the whole time and provided consistent updates. It was an overall great experience for all of us!”
“Great sitter. They follow all the instructions, making sure my dog was safe and well taking care of. My doggy enjoy staying at Quing. Will ask in the future to take care of my doggy again.”
“Aubrey is very attentive to our dog’s needs. Goose is a nervous girl, and Aubrey takes care to make sure that she’s comfortable. She also checked in with us when Goose showed some pain/concerning behavior (she has an existing knee problem) and followed up with what care we recommended. She was communicative and obviously loves animals!”
“Knox absolutely loved his time with Brian!! I sincerely appreciate how well he took care of my little buddy. And all of the pictures and videos Knox looked like he was having the best time!”
“Michelle and her family were a 10/10. Miso had the best time with her and her kids and she was very well taken care of. She was also so good about sending so many photo and video updates and I appreciate her treating my girl like one of her own.”
“Yoshi had a great time staying over with Elaine while his parents were traveling. She is so communicative and sends the funniest pictures of him with his other doggy friends.”
“Emily was such a great pet sitter for my dog! She sent me updates with photos/vids daily which definitely eased my worries of leaving my senior dog with someone. I knew she was in great hands. Emily was also great at making sure Cleo had her daily walks and her regular schedule. She is a true gem and I'm so glad I found her (also in such close proximity) and would highly recommend her and use her for a future stay! :) thanks again Emily!”
“Artem was incredible! Our other Rover sitter fell through at the last minute, and he willingly took in our pup that same day, so we could catch our flight on time! He was very responsive, and it was clear that he kept a safe and structured environment for the dogs. I would highly recommend him and will definitely call on him the next time we need our dog boarded. Thank you again, Artem!”
“Shane took amazing care of Riley! He looked so happy in every picture / video during his stay :) I couldn’t be happier about how well Riley was taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Lissa took great care of our doodle Bunsen. We received daily updates, including photos and videos letting us know how she was doing. Bunsen may have even been a little sad leaving her new doggy friend Nala. I'm really happy we found someone trustworthy to take care of our Bunsen and will definitely have Lissa take care of our pup again.”
