“Shanna was absolutely amazing! I am new to Bakersfield having recently moved from NC and had never used Rover before let alone an in home sitter. We have always used cage free, free play boarding facilities in NC - so this made me a bit nervous. From the start Shanna was absolutely great with explaining the process, reassuring, and during the meet & greet Aurora felt right at home. Aurora usually returns back a little stressed from any boarding experience but she was in such a happy and excited mood when we picked her up. We will use Shanna any time we need a dog sitter going forward, I can't say enough great things about the experience!”

“Karla Michelle watched our dog Brody for a second time and took such amazing care of him. She sent pictures and videos everyday and I never had to once worry about him. She goes above and beyond! Thank you!”

“Nalani was great with Gerald! I had to reschedule for a last minute boarding and she was able to take him in and make sure he was safe and happy! Will definitely be sticking with rover as my boarding whenever I am in need of a sitter for my dog.”

“Renee was great! She kept me updated and was so communicative which I really appreciated. I knew Snoh was in good hands with her and Snoh had SO much fun. Highly recommend Renee and I will be using for future need! Thank you Renee 🙏”

“I am so appreciative of Breanna! She was great with my fur baby! She made sure both me and my dog were comfortable, safe, and happy! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates! Breanna was amazing with learning the needs of my pup and tending to them!”


“We had to Google a boarding facility since we had just moved to Bakersfield. We chose Jill & Liz because of their high reviews. And we got really lucky! My dog was well cared for and I received daily updates. I was able to be away from home and away from my fur baby with no regrets & no stress! I highly recommend them!”

“Stacy has a tidy, cozy home that felt welcoming and relaxed. Great communication and was so kind and thoughtful of the fur baby. So grateful to have found someone in the area. Highly recommend!”

“Just moved to Bakersfield recently and had Julie watch/board my dog Tank for the first time over the weekend. Definitely will use her again. Got photos throughout the weekend of Tank and his new buddies (other dogs) playing and hanging out at the ranch. He’s nice and pooped from his fun and eventual weekend!”

“Nalani is a great pet sitter. My cats were well taken care of, and I received updates throughout their stay. I returned from my trip to find them happy, healthy, and reluctant to leave. Would recommend Nalani to anyone in need of boarding a pet!”


“I was very grateful to have Angelina come out and take care of our new adopted cat Aria. She was accommodating, conscientious, patient and is a great communicator. She offered to housesit as well, which was a huge relief. I will definitely request her services again.”


About: I’ve taken care of cats since 9 yrs old. Ever since then, I kept taking care of multiple cats in my neighborhood. Previous neighbors and family have acknowledge my love for cats that they brought their own cats to me to take care of them long term. I cleaned litter boxes, administered oral medications, fed, and played with cats.
“Sahvanna did such a fantastic job house sitting my 2 cats! She kept in touch and sent adorable photos, and helped administer oral medication for one of my kitties. Already booked her a second time, definitely recommend :)”


“Kat was very responsive and attentive to our pups! She was happy to accommodate a stop in visit at the last minute and gave us plenty of updates along the way. I would definitely recommend her services! :)”


“Kristine is very professional working with our dog. She was gentle and careing and our dog became very close to her. Kristine was always attentive and on time. She was a blessing when I had an extended business meeting she was able to return and cover for me. In the future I would recommend hiring her again.thank you.”

“We couldn’t use our normal person from Meowtel anymore since she was out of range so we decided to make the change to Rover and glad we did. June was amazing. Very responsive from the get go, and she fit us in even booking her last minute when she had other clients. Our cats loved her right away and she even brought them snacks (after asking us if she could of course due to their dietary restrictions). She was able to turn alarm on and off for the house and even went back one night after remembering she had left a light on (which most people wouldn’t admit). Felt like our kitties were in great and capable hands. You can tell she has her own pets, animals love her! She even followed up a few days after we had returned making sure the kitties were okay! Have already booked our next service with her!”

“Joeline was great, she's very attentive and caring when it came to Duquesa. She made sure she got the love and attention she deserves while I was gone. She fed and took care of her like she was family. Thank you so much I highly appreciate you.”

About: Looking for a Dog Walker, a Drop in visitor, or want to board for your pet/s. Someone who will care for your pet as you do. I love animals, and I live in Lake of the woods. I've cared for animals for over 30 years. From birth to passing. I'm a full-time retiree from the railroad. So my schedule is open, really flexible, and I'm used to being outside in all kinds of inclement weather. I can spend time walking, visiting, playing, feeding, and caring for your pet/s. I love that I get exercise, laughs, emotional support, and a sense of family from my awesome fur family. I serve Lake of the woods, pine mountain, Lebec, Lockwood Valley, Frazier Park, Cuddy Valley, Los Padres & Pinion Pines. I offer cat care and small pet care. I'm a full time retiree. So I can devote all my time to dogs, cats and pets in my care. It gives me open flexible schedule options. I use an in my home environment. I don't use fenced enclosed kennels. I encourage interaction between your dog/s through out the day. There's a lot of supervised outdoor time.

I also have a lot of exotic pets and am very comfortable with taking care of them. I have been working at a dog kennel for 15 years and managing it for 6 years.

“Shanna is amazing!! We have 3 dogs that have never been with anyone before besides our family, so I was very nervous. Shanna is super responsive, understanding, and calm! You can really tell she loves your dog just like if they were her own dogs. We did a day care to test out our longer stay this week and they came back so happy!! Can’t wait to have them come back :)”

“Karla is amazing! She provided overnights before and this time I used her doggy day care service. My dog was so excited to see her and her dogs again, he ran up to her house. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I have been involved with dogs since I was 12 years old when I started raising Guide Dogs for the blind. After that I worked at a kennel/training facility for 6 years, then became a dog groomer for 10 years as well as went back to more kennel work. I also breed and show border collies and train them for a variety of different events. To say my live revolves around my dogs is an understatement. I have been working with dogs for over 30 years in a variety of aspects. I work from home 8-4:30 with a lunch break. I am able to check on your pups before and after work and even on my lunch break depending on the proximity of our homes. In my home my dogs are indoors with me during the day. They go outside for 20 minutes every hour (supervised only). During they day they have their own dog room next to the living room where I work. Toys beds and crates fill their area. I treat your dog just like one of my own when they are with me. Our dogs sleep in our room with us as well. In your home its your rules and what you need out of a sitter. I would ideally like to take your dog outside to play or for a walk (if that is what they would like). Really it's about the dog and trying to keep a normal routine.
“Haley was a very thoughtful, flexible sitter for Jethro. He can be a handful at times, but she was great at understanding his (and our) needs while we were out of town. She is trustworthy and goes the extra mile to make sure your dog is comfortable, and updated throughout the day without needing to be asked. I’d recommend her if you are looking for someone to trust with the security of your home, and safety and happiness of your animals.”


About: I’m a dedicated 21 year old dog lover who currently cares for two rescued female puppies. They are friendly and fixed :) Raising young shelter dogs has given me hands-on experience with puppy routines, socialization, basic training, exercise, and lots of patience. I understand the importance of consistency, positive reinforcement, and creating a safe, comfortable environment for pets. Growing up, I also owned a Chihuahua and spent time dog walking for others ever since I was a kid, which helped me learn how to work with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m comfortable with active puppies, shy dogs, and dogs that need extra attention and reassurance. What sets me apart is that I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply a caring companion while you're away, I’m committed to making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I currently work part-time as a delivery driver, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to stay close to home throughout the day. Because of that, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of attention. I care for my own two young dogs every day, so pet care is already a major part of my routine. When I'm not working, I spend time walking, training, playing with, and caring for them. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust my day around the needs of the pets in my care and make sure they receive the attention, supervision, and affection they deserve. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, dogs have access to a large, securely fenced yard where they can play, exercise, and explore safely under supervision. I also have a large crate available for dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet place to relax. If a dog needs their own space, I can separate them using a dog gate and provide a comfortable area in my home where they can rest safely. I always monitor interactions between pets and make sure each dog is comfortable and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their routines as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special instructions. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure and comfortable while their owners are away. My goal is to provide a safe, calm, and caring environment where every pet feels at home.
“This was first time leaving my dog. I was a little nervous since we were in town for my husbands work so I was not familiar with the area, people or just leaving him. Nalani did a great job making it comfortable for me. I took my dog to her two days and it was such a great experience. He did well and Nalani gave him lots of attention. Thank you so much for taking care of my fur baby while we were in town. I highly recommend her.”


“We love bringing our dog, Kima, to Jill’s house!! She’s professional, trustworthy, and Kima feels right at home and part of the pack. Kima can be shy at first around new humans but she warmed right up to Jill and her partner. We are so grateful we found them and Kima has some new friends!”

“Brandan is great with our one year old fur baby! Simba has separation anxiety, but Brandan stays patient with him and attends to his needs to make him comfortable. We appreciate that he is flexible with our schedule and treats Simba like family. Simba is always excited to go to daycare as he starts to show excitement when we approach Brandan’s home and runs up to his door! If you are looking for someone who is compassionate and trustworthy; Brandan is the one!”

About: I am a Fear Free certified veterinary technician of 13 years who grew up in the show dog world (AKC) before getting into rescue as an adult. Throughout my long-lived animal career I have participated in puppy/kitten/basic obedience training, behavioral rehabilitation, dog sport training, senior care, care for animals with extreme medical needs, and owned/operated a group play doggie daycare. My jobs, hobbies, and passions are all centered around animals and I can't wait to bring that passion to you! I am home full-time, and available for puppies and animals with heavy needs. I have a fairly set schedule for all of the pets in my care, and that level of routine provides comfort to even the most nervous of pups. I am the only Fear Free pet carer in Bakersfield! I provide comforting classical music as well as calming pheromones in the sleeping spaces to make their stay as stress-free as possible. I have a fenced yard and never leave dogs together unsupervised. I do not provide an environment suitable for animals with a history of dog aggression. Small dogs I can be more flexible with, as their attitude usually comes from a place of fear and that is something I can work with for the little guys.
“Veronica is really kind and gentle to my dog that is extremely anxious and whiny. The rover card was updated and photos were uploaded as well. And it was a bit chilly and she gave my dog a nice sweater to go home with.”

“Dominie took good care of our baby boy. She sent updates with pictures throughout his stay. We had peace of mind knowing he was in goods hands 😊 we will be hiring Dominie again!!”


About: I’ve had pets of all kinds ever since I was a kid. I grew up around livestock and showed pigs through 4-H. I’ve never had a dog-less household, and I strongly believe every dog is a lap dog. I would love to get to know and spoil each and every one of your pups, while keeping you updated every step of the process. Although I only have one review on my profile, I have been taking care of friends’ and family’s pets for years. I guarantee a 5 star experience for you and your pets. I am currently self-employed, so I am extremely flexible when it comes to my schedule. Just let me know what you need, and we can make it happen! I have a fenced in yard, with two of my own indoor/outdoor dogs. There are also 2 indoor/outdoor cats, so no dogs that could put them in danger.

“I can’t recommend Jorge highly enough! From the moment I dropped my dogs off, it was clear how much thought, care, and energy he puts into making sure the dogs in his care are happy, safe, and having a great time. Jorge keeps the dogs active with trips to parks and dog parks, and he does a wonderful job managing their interactions with other dogs. His home is truly set up with dogs in mind—an amazing front yard with plenty of room to play, a secure fenced area, a pool, outdoor water, and lots of space for them to enjoy themselves. He even has an agenda for their day and pays close attention to feeding schedules, activity levels, and what each dog needs. What impressed me most were all the little things. When one of my dogs rolled in poo, Jorge washed her off—and then went above and beyond by giving my other dog some extra attention too, including conditioner and brushing her out. When they weren’t interested in their food after such an active day, he made sure they still got treats. He also sent me lots of pictures and videos throughout their stay, so I could see how much fun they were having. But the best review really came from my dogs themselves. On the second day, as soon as we pulled up, they jumped out and ran straight into Jorge’s house, excited to be back. That absolutely warmed my heart because there is no better reassurance than seeing your dogs genuinely happy to return. Jorge is incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful, and it’s obvious that he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. I felt completely comfortable knowing mine were with him. I would absolutely book with Jorge again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dogs like his own.”

“Akie was professional, friendly, and clearly loves animals. My dog was well taken care of, and I appreciated the regular updates. I’ll definitely book with Akie again in the future!.”

About: Welcome to my profile! Growing up in a lively household filled with both dogs and a variety of other animals, I developed a profound love and understanding of animal behavior from a young age. With over five years of professional dog-sitting experience, I've cared for breeds of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring each pup receives the attention and affection they deserve. My unique upbringing has equipped me with the skills to manage not just dogs, but also other pets, making me a versatile caregiver who can provide a safe and nurturing environment for your furry family member. Whether it's long walks, playtime, or simply cuddling up on the couch, I am dedicated to making your dog's experience enjoyable and enriching. Your pet's well-being is my top priority, and I can't wait to meet them! I'm currently working from home, and occasionally watching other dogs, but my availability is COMPLETELY OPEN, and am happy to help out whenever needed!

I have a pretty decent sized apartment, that's CLEANED & SANITIZED DAILY, has AC/HEAT, non-smoking, and always has some toys, blankets, and sanitized food/water bowls ready, just in case the owner doesn't bring them. I also take the pets outside quite frequently, as much as possible honeslty! Also, not just to potty, but to explore the neighborhood, RUN for extended periods of time, and to constantly practice/improve use of commands, and healthy interactions with other people/pets/stimulation we may encounter along the way!

About: I’ve done animal care for family and friends. I had a 3-month internship at a veterinary hospital so I have gained experience. I am currently volunteering at CALM Zoo for animal care and veterinary care. I’ve taken care of cats since 9 yrs old and taken cared of dogs since 13 yrs old. I’ve fed, walked, played with, and administered oral medication to dogs. I am currently unemployed. I am a student who has online summer classes. There is no responsibility tying me down to one place. I have a great daytime flexibility. I double checked if doors are closed, how I handle a leash, watch animal behavior to see if they are in any way stressed and how I can help minimize it. I am open to more safety rules parents have to keep their babies safe.
“Sherell has been walking my pup Theo everyday for the past week (and I hope she’ll continue for a long time, as her schedule permits!). She has been incredibly professional, caring, and has been totally exceeding my expectations! She is a great communicator, hard-working, responsible, dependable, and trustworthy. Highly recommend her ? thanks for your great care, Sherell!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. Growing up, my parents bred small litters of dogs, so I was hands-on from the very beginning—assisting with feeding, socialization, early training, and daily care. Our dogs were true members of the family, and that experience taught me the patience, responsibility, and deep compassion animals deserve. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I intentionally create time for it. I prioritize structure, consistency, and presence when caring for animals. Whether it’s morning feedings, midday check-ins, afternoon walks, or evening playtime, I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive attention, exercise, and companionship—not just quick visits. I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing Safety and trust are my top priorities. In a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, routines, medications, and boundaries. I respect your space as if it were my own and keep everything clean and secure.

“Shanna was absolutely amazing! I am new to Bakersfield having recently moved from NC and had never used Rover before let alone an in home sitter. We have always used cage free, free play boarding facilities in NC - so this made me a bit nervous. From the start Shanna was absolutely great with explaining the process, reassuring, and during the meet & greet Aurora felt right at home. Aurora usually returns back a little stressed from any boarding experience but she was in such a happy and excited mood when we picked her up. We will use Shanna any time we need a dog sitter going forward, I can't say enough great things about the experience!”

“Karla Michelle watched our dog Brody for a second time and took such amazing care of him. She sent pictures and videos everyday and I never had to once worry about him. She goes above and beyond! Thank you!”

“Nalani was great with Gerald! I had to reschedule for a last minute boarding and she was able to take him in and make sure he was safe and happy! Will definitely be sticking with rover as my boarding whenever I am in need of a sitter for my dog.”

“We boarded our dog with Lauren and she did a wonderful job taking care of him. She was easy to get ahold of and sent us occasional updates while we were away. Would use her again.”

“Frances took such wonderful care of my young rambunctious husky mix. This was my dog's first time with a pet sitter and I could tell she had a great time! We will be back for sure!”

“Renee was great! She kept me updated and was so communicative which I really appreciated. I knew Snoh was in good hands with her and Snoh had SO much fun. Highly recommend Renee and I will be using for future need! Thank you Renee 🙏”

“I am so appreciative of Breanna! She was great with my fur baby! She made sure both me and my dog were comfortable, safe, and happy! She made sure to send lots of pictures and updates! Breanna was amazing with learning the needs of my pup and tending to them!”


“We had to Google a boarding facility since we had just moved to Bakersfield. We chose Jill & Liz because of their high reviews. And we got really lucky! My dog was well cared for and I received daily updates. I was able to be away from home and away from my fur baby with no regrets & no stress! I highly recommend them!”

“Stacy has a tidy, cozy home that felt welcoming and relaxed. Great communication and was so kind and thoughtful of the fur baby. So grateful to have found someone in the area. Highly recommend!”

“Just moved to Bakersfield recently and had Julie watch/board my dog Tank for the first time over the weekend. Definitely will use her again. Got photos throughout the weekend of Tank and his new buddies (other dogs) playing and hanging out at the ranch. He’s nice and pooped from his fun and eventual weekend!”

“Took great care of my dog and went above and beyond for her. I got lots of pictures of the fun times they were having and my dog came home happy and tired from all the playing. Highly recommend”

“Absolutely went over and beyond. My dog was so happy with her. She even took him to the park to walk around and explore. I would definitely use her again and again and again😊”

About: I have been involved with dogs since I was 12 years old when I started raising Guide Dogs for the blind. After that I worked at a kennel/training facility for 6 years, then became a dog groomer for 10 years as well as went back to more kennel work. I also breed and show border collies and train them for a variety of different events. To say my live revolves around my dogs is an understatement. I have been working with dogs for over 30 years in a variety of aspects. I work from home 8-4:30 with a lunch break. I am able to check on your pups before and after work and even on my lunch break depending on the proximity of our homes. In my home my dogs are indoors with me during the day. They go outside for 20 minutes every hour (supervised only). During they day they have their own dog room next to the living room where I work. Toys beds and crates fill their area. I treat your dog just like one of my own when they are with me. Our dogs sleep in our room with us as well. In your home its your rules and what you need out of a sitter. I would ideally like to take your dog outside to play or for a walk (if that is what they would like). Really it's about the dog and trying to keep a normal routine.
