About: I'm happy to be on rover! I enjoy caring for dogs, providing a loving environment, and supporting them in having a great stay. I particularly enjoy caring for medium to large dogs. I previously used Rover to find pet sitters for my Labrador, who was my dear companion until he passed in 2026. I've had great experiences with rover and would love to give back by being a sitter now. I know what it's like to leave your fur baby with someone else, and I'd be honored to care for your companion like I did mine. I work mostly online and go into the office some days each week for a few hours. So, I will be home and with your pup most the whole time. I only take one doggy at a time to give specialized care for your companion. I have a fenced yard and 1/4 acre of space. The dog is welcome on the couch, which I have a cover for. I can let your pup out consistently and take them on walks as needed.
“Marla is so calm and kind- her love of dogs shows in the great care she gave our two pups! This was the first time we left one of our dogs with a sitter and he seemed to do so well and clearly happy with the care. We hope to have Marla back to take care of our pups on our next trip away.”
“Rachel was fabulous! She kept me updated with Molly's activities and shared lots of pictures. It was obvious that Molly's was very happy and well-cared for there. She had Rachel's children to play with as well as her dog. I was a bit anxious because this was the first time we boarded Molly, but it turned out far better than expected. I will definitely use her services again! So happy!”
“Sara was knowledgeable, caring and a pleasure to work with to take care of my old dog for a few days. It gave us flexibility to go sightseeing without leaving dog in car. It was not an option. Thanks to Sara.”
“Marissa and her husband are fantastic dog sitters! They took amazing care of our high-energy 60lb German Shepard Husky mix. They were super accommodating to his energy needs, new place anxiety, and were very communicative at all times. Would definitely recommend :)”
“Thanks so much Janice for first meeting and greeting us before the visit and sending lots of photos during! Sammie was so happy to be there he didn’t want to leave. Your backyard is beautiful and doggy friendly, including this Houdini!”
About: I have real, everyday experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including my own three, so I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m used to everything from playful, high-energy dogs to more anxious or shy ones, and I adjust my care based on what each dog needs. I’m confident with feeding routines, potty schedules, and reinforcing basic training, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure every dog is safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my ability to manage multiple dogs while still giving each one individual attention and care. I already care for my own dogs daily, so adding pet care into my routine is a natural fit. I’m home often and able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Dogs staying with me won’t be left alone for long and will be part of a consistent, comfortable routine. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can accommodate both weekday and weekend bookings. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention and feels safe and cared for while they’re with me. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise dogs while they’re outside to ensure their safety. In my home, I carefully manage introductions and monitor interactions to make sure all dogs get along and feel comfortable. I also have crates available if needed, whether for sleeping, downtime, or to match a dog’s normal routine. I stick closely to each dog’s schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. Dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure everyone stays safe and stress-free. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to each dog’s individual needs. Whether a dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I make sure they feel secure, cared for, and right at home.
“Natalie took very good care of our dog Bentley. She was very responsive and provided daily photos. I recommend her to anyone needing care for their pet! Thanks again Natalie :)”
“We highly recommend Lauren T! Our dogs boarded with her over Christmas and she treated them like part of the family, even wrapping gifts for them to open. She walked them daily, even taking them to the beach. She sent us updates and photos of our happy dogs every day, too! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of our beloved pups!”
“Tara and Jed were fantastic! They took lots of photos of Clem, our dog, and updated us on all the fun adventures they had with her. I will be asking them for help in the future!”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“My wife and I love this lady. We have an immensely energetic puppy, Chava, who we need to train as a service dog. Madelyn has been a godsend, taking very good care of Chava and helping us with sound advice. Check out her other services; she doesn't just board.”
“Fantastic. Douglas understands and cares for dogs so well. Our Courage took to him right away and could tell he was super dog friendly. He had a fantastic stay and we would love to have him visit with Douglas again in the future!”
“Wolfie enjoyed his stay at Kiara’ place. The entire family is really friendly and treated Wolfie as one of the family members. The house is clean and has big enough space for dogs. Def will recommend to others!”
“Robyn took great care of our dog, and was so easy to work with. Our plans changed a few times, and she was very flexible. And I loved the photos and feedback she sent to update us on how everything was going. I highly recommend Robyn.”
“Katie was so wonderful! My dog came home relaxed and tired from all the fun. I can tell she was properly cared for and given a lot of attention and exercise. I was so grateful for Katie’s kindness and understanding of my special, quirky dog.”
“Bee had a great experience staying with Darby. I was very happy to receive updates and hear about all the things bee was doing. It was like her own little vacation! Thanks Darby!”

“Morgan did an excellent job caring for our pets while we were away. She was reliable, thorough, and made sure every detail was taken care of. Her communication was great—she kept us updated and reached out promptly if she had any questions. One thing that stood out right away was during our initial meet-up: our cats, who are usually pretty skittish around new people, immediately walked up to her and let her pet them. That was such a great sign and gave us instant peace of mind. We came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties and a tidy home. We truly appreciate her care and professionalism. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“Carrie did a great job with my cats. She was always on time, took good care of feeding them with their medication and played with them. Sent me lots of pictures and even brought in a package. She is honest and reliable. Thank You!”
About: I absolutely adore kitties! I have over 5 years of experience caring for cats of different ages and temperaments. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, administering oral or topical medications, and providing attentive companionship. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes in routine, so I prioritize calm, consistent care to help them feel secure while their owners are away.
“Jenevieve was wonderful. She took great care of our little cat and made sure all of his needs were met. She was so thorough, she even took time to use his feeding toys and gave him lots of extra attention. We’re always sad to leave our little kitty but it nice knowing that Jenevieve was there to check on him.”
About: Being an animal lover runs in my family. So, I’ve been caring for dogs and cats my whole life! I have bottle fed kittens, taken care of elderly pets, and very young puppies. Ranging anywhere from 5-75 pounds. I’m no stranger to pet medicine, scooping litter boxes, or even training. I look forward to working with you and meeting your fur-baby! I work entirely from home and already care for my own animals. Which I take my dogs for walks in my beautiful neighborhood and they play in my large fenced area as well. I also own a double pet stroller. Great for small, medium, and/or elderly pet walks. Lastly, I have one indoor/outdoor cat and three indoor cats that are also friendly. I have four fixed, friendly, trained dogs. They are very used to meeting new animals and living with cats. My only large animal is my golden retriever. Which he is very friendly and gentle. The others are a chihuahua, doxin, and mini schnauzer. So, my home is especially perfect if your pet would like some play mates! I also have a doggy kitty pool if he/she likes water. If needed, I also have a large cozy crate and separate fenced yard for separation.
About: I have been working with animals since I was little. I have had a plethora of furry friends; rodents, reptiles, birds, cats, dogs, a pig! I am pet first aid and CPR certified, so in case any kind of emergency I am always prepared! I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, and oral medication. Animals are my passion and seeing them happy and thrive gives me so much joy, and I have so much love to give! I work evenings/weekends at a restaurant, but that allows for my mornings and weekdays to spend time with your pets while you’re away at work! I am happy to provide drop-in visits for lunches, walks, or just some companionship to break up the day until you’re home. I will happily give lots of pets, scratches, and attention in whatever way they best receive it. I’ve had dogs that just love to snuggle, others who need a high intensity run, or some that just love playing fetch in their yards. I am happy to do whatever makes them happy!
“Desiree was great with my cat and dog. She was very reliable, checking in with me while she was with them with pictures and thoughts. I also really appreciated her vet tech experience. Highly recommend her services.”
About: I have a soft spot for cats and understand their unique personalities and needs. From playful kittens to wise, independent seniors, I provide cozy spaces, interactive play, and gentle affection. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box care, and even those mysterious cat moods; keeping your feline happy, stress-free, and feeling loved while you’re away.
“Sara took great care of our car Tommy! She was professional, available and flexible. Tommy loved her scratches and her attention. She was also great in communicating with us and sending notes and pictures! Thank you again!”
About: We’re a dedicated pet-sitting team with over 30 years of experience caring for animals, bringing compassion, patience, and reliability to every pet we care for. We love keeping pets happy and active with walks and play, while always following your detailed instructions for feeding, routines, medications, and special needs. Working together means your pet always has attentive, consistent care—never rushed or overlooked. We truly enjoy spending quality time with animals and treat every pet as if they were our own, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for. As a pet-sitting team, we offer the best of both worlds. I work from home, so your pet has company, attention, and care throughout the day, with regular breaks for walks, play, and check-ins. My partner is retired, which means added availability, flexibility, and a calm presence at home. Together, we ensure your pet is never alone, rushed, or overlooked. We’re happy to follow a detailed schedule you provide—including exact feeding times, walks, play sessions, and medications—so your pet’s routine stays consistent, familiar, and stress-free while you’re away. As an in-home pet-sitting team, we care for your pet the same way we’d want someone to care for our own—with love, attentiveness, and respect for their home and routine. Having two caregivers means more consistency, flexibility, and peace of mind, with your pet always receiving calm, unrushed attention in the comfort of their own space. We believe clear communication builds trust, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and short videos to reassure you that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. We take the time to listen carefully and follow every instruction you provide—from feeding schedules and medications to special needs and quirks—so your pet’s routine stays familiar and stress-free while you’re away.

“Marla was a wonderful sitter for my doggy. She has a great home with a big yard. She was very communicative all day and sent pictures to help me see how she was doing. My dog is used to only being in her own home, so it was nice to see she could do okay in other surroundings. Marla has a kind and gentle spirit and offers a loving environment for your pet!”
“Mili was wonderful for our Millie! Easy drop off and communication. She sent regular photos and her home felt safe and welcoming! Highly recommend if you are in the Paso area. Thank you Mili and Family!”
“Legera was a very thoughtful and caring host for our dog. She was fully trustworthy, asked great questions, and clearly wanted the best experience for our older pup, who had the biggest smile on her face when we came back to pick her up. Given her separation anxiety, this is a lovely result. Thanks, Legera!”
“Absolutely amazing! Madelyn cared for my two pups and my friends pub while we went wine touring, the pups all had such a great time with her!

My pups and I are all very comfortable having her watch them would recommend her to anyone visiting Paso Robles and needs a Pup Sitter or trainer for the day.”
“Rachel replied immediately. She was welcoming. We had a meet & greet with her and Gus, and Levi and I were very impressed :) Her dog Gus is just a cutie pie and loves to play, so he kept my little guy very busy. Levi came home happy and tired! Yes! I hope we can plan another petsitting date soon. Thank you for everything Rachel. I loved the photos you sent me - especially the one with your little girl and Levi.”
“Twinkie had a great time at Allie’s house! He got to play in the yard and make new friends. He is so sleepy so I know he had blast. I would recommend Allie to watch anyones pups! She was great at communicating and being flexible with our schedules. I am a nervous Nelly when it comes to my pup so I appreciated the updates. It was fun to drop Twinkie off at her house and he didn’t even look back ? I knew Allie was the right sitter for him after that lol. Thanks again for everything!”

Our other dog who is very friendly was all smiles when he came back. She will do a great job with your pups.”

“Dropped off Flower for a short visit today before I board him with Andrew. I had previously met with Andrew so that Flower could meet him and Flower was very happy to see him. When I picked up my little dog, he seemed very content and peaceful sitting in his little bed. It made me very happy to see that my dog was happy and apparently had a good visit! I feel great about leaving flower with Andrew for the upcoming weekend after this wonderful experience.”

About: I live in Lake Nacimiento and have been around animals my whole life. My family has dogs, cats, chickens, goats, ponies, and puppies, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from helping care for puppies from the time they’re born to senior dogs up to 15 years old. I recently graduated college with a degree in biology and a minor in chemistry, but while I was away I pet and house sat for several families and built great relationships with both the pets and their parents. Many of my clients had my personal number and would reach out whenever they needed help. I’m happy to provide references if you’d like! House Sitting: I am currently accepting house-sitting clients.

I am CPR and First Aid certified, reliable, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs.

But I could tell his brother would tolerate it. I can have other pets for sleep overs for cats only. I would keep them separate from my current spoiled boy as he needs to be an only child right now.
About: I’m here to make sure your family is safe and taken care of. I have 10+ years experience as a pet sitter and dog walker. If you have any questions let me know!

Your family members safety is my top concern. If they have any medical conditions or other issues I will make sure care for them accordingly.

About: I'm happy to be on rover! I enjoy caring for dogs, providing a loving environment, and supporting them in having a great stay. I particularly enjoy caring for medium to large dogs. I previously used Rover to find pet sitters for my Labrador, who was my dear companion until he passed in 2026. I've had great experiences with rover and would love to give back by being a sitter now. I know what it's like to leave your fur baby with someone else, and I'd be honored to care for your companion like I did mine. I work mostly online and go into the office some days each week for a few hours. So, I will be home and with your pup most the whole time. I only take one doggy at a time to give specialized care for your companion. I have a fenced yard and 1/4 acre of space. The dog is welcome on the couch, which I have a cover for. I can let your pup out consistently and take them on walks as needed.
“Sara was knowledgeable, caring and a pleasure to work with to take care of my old dog for a few days. It gave us flexibility to go sightseeing without leaving dog in car. It was not an option. Thanks to Sara.”
“Marissa and her husband are fantastic dog sitters! They took amazing care of our high-energy 60lb German Shepard Husky mix. They were super accommodating to his energy needs, new place anxiety, and were very communicative at all times. Would definitely recommend :)”
About: I have real, everyday experience caring for multiple dogs at once, including my own three, so I’m very comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and routines. I’m used to everything from playful, high-energy dogs to more anxious or shy ones, and I adjust my care based on what each dog needs. I’m confident with feeding routines, potty schedules, and reinforcing basic training, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure every dog is safe and comfortable. What sets me apart is my ability to manage multiple dogs while still giving each one individual attention and care. I already care for my own dogs daily, so adding pet care into my routine is a natural fit. I’m home often and able to provide regular potty breaks, feeding, and attention throughout the day. Dogs staying with me won’t be left alone for long and will be part of a consistent, comfortable routine. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I can accommodate both weekday and weekend bookings. I make sure every dog gets plenty of attention and feels safe and cared for while they’re with me. I provide a safe, clean, and structured environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed. I have a fenced yard for secure outdoor time and always supervise dogs while they’re outside to ensure their safety. In my home, I carefully manage introductions and monitor interactions to make sure all dogs get along and feel comfortable. I also have crates available if needed, whether for sleeping, downtime, or to match a dog’s normal routine. I stick closely to each dog’s schedule, including feeding times, potty breaks, and any specific care instructions provided by the owner. Dogs in my care are never left alone for long periods, and I always keep a close eye on behavior to make sure everyone stays safe and stress-free. What sets me apart is how attentive I am to each dog’s individual needs. Whether a dog is energetic, shy, or needs extra patience, I make sure they feel secure, cared for, and right at home.
“Natalie took very good care of our dog Bentley. She was very responsive and provided daily photos. I recommend her to anyone needing care for their pet! Thanks again Natalie :)”
“We highly recommend Lauren T! Our dogs boarded with her over Christmas and she treated them like part of the family, even wrapping gifts for them to open. She walked them daily, even taking them to the beach. She sent us updates and photos of our happy dogs every day, too! Thank you, Lauren, for taking such great care of our beloved pups!”
“Tara and Jed were fantastic! They took lots of photos of Clem, our dog, and updated us on all the fun adventures they had with her. I will be asking them for help in the future!”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“My wife and I love this lady. We have an immensely energetic puppy, Chava, who we need to train as a service dog. Madelyn has been a godsend, taking very good care of Chava and helping us with sound advice. Check out her other services; she doesn't just board.”
“Fantastic. Douglas understands and cares for dogs so well. Our Courage took to him right away and could tell he was super dog friendly. He had a fantastic stay and we would love to have him visit with Douglas again in the future!”
“Wolfie enjoyed his stay at Kiara’ place. The entire family is really friendly and treated Wolfie as one of the family members. The house is clean and has big enough space for dogs. Def will recommend to others!”
“Robyn took great care of our dog, and was so easy to work with. Our plans changed a few times, and she was very flexible. And I loved the photos and feedback she sent to update us on how everything was going. I highly recommend Robyn.”
“Benny stayed for almost 3 weeks and I couldn’t have felt more comfortable with his stay. Krissy has such a great set up for dogs, so much outdoor play. I received daily updates and Benny came home exhausted! Will use again and recommend to everyone I know with a dog!!”
“Absolutely amazing experience! Ashley is super communicative and very punctual. She sends plenty of updates that include photos and videos. She even goes up and beyond by asking about any strange behaviors which displays attention to detail and deep care for your dog. Her dog is very friendly and playful, completely tired out my energetic pup! Fantastic experience, would absolutely recommend Ashley.”

About: Hello! I am an experienced dog owner, sitter, and walker with a deep love for dogs and animals. I have one dog of my own, Otis (5 years old, terrier mix). I grew up with animals since I can remember and have always loved animals of all kinds. I am friendly, caring, gentle, observant, and strong/assertive when necessary to ensure animal safety. Otis and I have hosted animals of all different personalities successfully. We would love to have your lil doggo with us soon :) I am available most days, morning to evening. Weekends I am a bit more available, but usually have flexibility. I can make adjustments with a day notice typically. I have experience training my own animals and have seen big progress with behavioral challenges. I know how to work with different personalities and ensure safety. I keep dogs on leashes and allow for appropriate introductions. I also have a big backyard that is fenced in.
“Kambry was very responsive and was able to watch for our dog Goose on short notice for the evening. Goose can be uneasy and reactive, but Kambry was able to handle everything super well with care and understanding. She is definitely an experienced sitter and I recommend her to anyone searching in the SLO area!”
