We will certainly continue to book services with Mario! Our Chloe’ returned to our family with no issues. Thank you, Mario!”
“Thank you so much to Misty and her family who took care of my senior schnoodle for 4 nights! My pup seemed very relaxed and happy when I came to visit and I heard she enjoyed spending time with the kids. Misty gave my dog her meds and sent me photos. I was able to enjoy my retreat knowing she was in great hands.”
“Taryn was the perfect sitter that we needed for our Charlie. We needed someone that would give our dog the closest love & attention that we give too. Our regular sitter that we use from Rover wasn't available. Taryn had the perfect house & yard and provided us with updates & pics of Charlie while she was there. We felt assured & pleased knowing that Taryn loved & cared for Charlie as if it were her own dog. We also felt at ease knowing that we could contact Taryn anytime and that she had the flexibility to take care of Charlie. We knew that Charlie was safe and allowed to keep her routines that she would at home. We will definitely use Taryn in the future and recommend her to anyone. This has been a VERY positive experience (yet again) with Rover and we are so happy that we found Taryn.”
“Deandra did a great job with our doggo. Her dog was great with ours and she was intentional with how they greeted one another. Our dog came back home TIRED! Would def recommend and will for sure use again in the future.”
“Cooper and Nora had an absolute dream home to leave our family member, Moose. They checked in every day-exercised him well, and let him play with their dogs-he came home clean and happy-we couldn’t have been more thrilled to find such a caring family for our family member!”
“Catherine is so wonderful. She took great care of our dog and was so communicative! Our kids got sick before our vacation and she let us reschedule and was very understanding and sweet. She always texted back instantly and was very understand even with our dog being anxious and a pain. We really appreciate her taking good care of our dog and keeping us in the loop and being an all around great Dogsitter.”
“John & Cathrine Are the best ‼️ I left my puppy 5 1/2 months over night and she loved it . John worked with my Sassy and taught her to Sit 💯🏆 iv been truly blessed to have found the Best sitters for my fur baby”
“My Teddy Bear enjoyed his stay at Amber's house! He had a ball running around in her big, fenced in backyard and playing with her two girls! Teddy also enjoyed a nature walk! Amber's home is comfortable and she provided a very nice stay for my pup. She even gave me fresh eggs from her chickens! I highly recommend Amber and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“We had a wonderful experience booking with Kalia. She was always quick to respond to booking requests, messages, and was very understanding when we had to cancel a different booking due to a change in plans. She sent regular updates and pictures of our boy and I could tell he was having a great visit with her and her two goldens. She put our mind at ease as this was our first time booking through Rover. We had used boarding facilities in the past and our boy would come back overstimulated and often with tummy issues, but it was not the case when he stayed with Kalia. We will definitely book with her again next time!”
“Steph and Jen were amazing. This was Ollie’s 1st experience boarding at someone elses house. Ollie is a sweet but shy dog so didn’t know how he would react since we were gone for 5 days. He played well with Lexi and pictures of Olllie were sent daily. I am very satisfied and Ollie was well taken care of. I would have Steph and Jen watch Ollie in the future😊”
“I give Sara 10 stars. Read the other positive reviews. They are all true. Kiki-Sweet Girl has special needs. Sara keeps her feeling so happy and feeling safe. We did a sample one-night boarding and are continuing with weekly recurring daycare and with multiple night boarding when we travel. Kiki loves Sara so much. Kiki also loves Sara's pup, Casper. No only does Sara do magic with communications with dogs and people, but she has exceptional skills in getting doggies to listen to her and to try their best for her. You will not be disappointed if you get Sara to be one of your dog's special people.”

About: I’ve grew up in a home of dogs, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I understand how important it is to provide not just basic care, but also love, attention, and a safe, comfortable environment for every pet. Through my experience, I’m familiar with feeding routines, daily walks, playtime, and recognizing a dog’s unique personality and needs. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means an energetic walk, relaxing companionship, or extra cuddles. Your pet will be treated like family with me, and I’ll make sure they feel happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I currently work part time, 4 to 7 hours six days a week. I currently reside and work in Ojai and partially in Ventura, so I'm never too far from home. I care for pets in their home by keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, and any special needs, while making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I also respect your home and provide updates so you feel confident your pet is safe and happy.
“My dog can be a bit leery of new people but she trusted Kalia right away. Kalia was super professional, kind, on time and even sent me a photo during their walk. I will be booking again!”
“Nicole is an amazing pet sitter! Great communication and very reliable. She was able to get one of our very shy cats to warm up to her. Nicole went above and beyond, even helping us with a household issue while we were out of town. Definitely recommend Nicole and we will hire her again!”
“We are incredibly lucky to have found such a reliable and trustworthy sitter. Sidney is an incredible person and provides outstanding care for our cat. She also helps to take care of the home while we are away and keeps all of the cat area clean. She spends extensive time with our cat and sends beautiful photos. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve always loved cats and have cared for them for friends, family, and clients. I understand that every cat has a unique personality some love attention, while others prefer their space. I’m patient, gentle, and focused on making sure your cat feels comfortable, secure, and loved in your absence.
About: I have lived with many dogs and cats my whole life, in this way I have always been raised to care for animals. I have also trained a chocolate Labrador from puppy to adulthood! I know the basic methods of discipline for pets, while knowing the basic needs of care and love for them! I currently work in the film industry part time in the camera department. The rest of my work in video content creation is remote, this allows me to be flexible with my schedule and location. When at a clients home, I leave a large window of time to just spend time with the pets, whether that be petting, playing fetch, scratching bellies, or just hanging out with one another. Time with me and pets make me happy, and I believe the pets as well! Most of my hours in a day, in fact will be spent with the pet.
About: I’ve had many cats in the past, and I will love your fur babies like they’re my own. My experience goes back to my teen years, and I have done many drop-ins for friends throughout my life. I’d love to take care of your crazy or docile kitties when you must be elsewhere.
“Shannon loves my kitty like her own. She went above and beyond to make sure she was taken care of when we were on vacation. She sent lots of pictures of my fur baby. My kitty has a new favorite sitter! We will definitely always book with Shannon in the future. She even brought in my packages and took my trash can to the curb.”
“Taryn was the first pet sitter I had in Los Angeles. I had a kitten that needed care while I went away for an extended period of time. She always took photos of my kitten and kept me updated along the way. Would highly recommend”
About: I have many years of experience as a pet-sitter for friends and neighbors and have even worked as a veterinary assistant. I have experience caring for not only dogs and cats, but also rodents, reptiles, amphibians, birds and some livestock animals including goats and pigs. I have cared for senior animals and pets with medical conditions. I'm working a remote part time job as a 3D artist, so my schedule is very flexible. I am even able to bring my work with me as long as your home has internet, so I can keep a close eye on your fur, feather or scale babies! Aside from being a calm and loving companion for your pets, I am also comfortable with administering oral medications, specialized feeding requirements (calcium dusting insects, feeding rodents to snakes, etc) basic grooming requirements, spot cleaning enclosures and general exercise needs.
About: Hi! I’m Kayla, a lifelong dog lover and animal person. I raised a 15-year-old Havanese from puppyhood through her senior years, and now share my life with Willow, my playful and social one-year-old cattle dog mix who absolutely loves having dog friends around. We live on a peaceful mountain property near Carpinteria with lots of outdoor space to explore. Our days are full but relaxed — usually a mix of time at home while I work on graduate school coursework, walks around the property, afternoon rest time, and beach outings or little adventures into town. I love matching each dog’s energy level — whether that means active hikes and play sessions or a slower-paced day with cozy naps and calm companionship. I’m currently in graduate school studying acupuncture, so I’m home most of the day and able to provide consistent supervision, attention, and care. I also love sending photo and video updates so you can see your pup enjoying their stay. I have experience with training and behavior work, including helping raise a previously reactive rescue dog. While I have that background, I’m currently focused on hosting dogs who are comfortable social playmates for Willow, so I’m not taking reactive dogs at this time. Our home also includes chickens (securely enclosed), and I’m happy to accommodate pickups or coordinate logistics to make things easy. If you’re looking for a safe, loving environment where your dog can enjoy outdoor adventures, companionship, and attentive care — I’d love to connect! As a graduate acupuncture student, I spend most of my days at home studying, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, companionship, and structured care. Our daily routine includes relaxed time at home, walks around our mountain property near Carpinteria, rest breaks, and beach or town outings depending on your dog’s energy level. I’m able to accommodate active dogs who love adventure as well as pups who prefer a slower, cozy pace. Because I’m home frequently, dogs are rarely left alone and get lots of attention, enrichment, and outdoor time throughout the day. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We live on a peaceful mountain property with plenty of outdoor space and a calm home environment. This property is unfenced. My dog Willow is a friendly, playful cattle dog mix who enjoys respectful dog companions. Dogs are supervised during interactions and introductions are done thoughtfully to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I’m experienced with training and behavior awareness, comfortable administering basic care, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs and boundaries. Our chickens are securely enclosed. I provide regular photo/video updates and maintain clear communication so you always feel confident while your pet is in my care.
About: I have grown up in a family full of animal lovers! I have always had dogs, cats, and even pigs around me ever since I was little. I also spent my 4 years in high school volunteering at my local humane society caring for the sweetest pups and kittens. I find myself very comfortable taking care of all types of animals as I have raised and cared for many throughout my lifetime. I am currently a mom of two precious kitties who are my whole world.
About: Experienced, trained, and educated in wildlife biology, I have loved animals dearly and yearned to care for them all my life. Ive had many dogs throughout my life, rescuing them and giving them a loving home, and now have a sweet kitten named Tangerine. I’ve worked with both wild animals and many folk’s best friends. I have cared for fury friends of all kinds in many settings and in many places. I now have years of experience and many happy and returning clients. And, while I’m not a certified trainer, I do pride myself on training doggos or maintaining their training, the best I can. I love animals! I am an artist and designer, and my work is flexible and can often travel with me. I have developed the perfect flow, so that I can be with our fury friends when they need me, while also getting my work accomplished. I have stayed in many homes to care for pets. I find it makes the animals most comfortable to be home where they have their routine and their own familiar territory. I want them to be as safe, happy, and comfortable as possible, while their parents are away.

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I've cared for dogs and cats most of my life since age 10, including a bonded pair of terriers I adopted and loved until they unfortunately passed in 2022. Since then I've done dog/cat-sitting, dog walking, and dog boarding for a variety of friends and clients, and have always had a wonderful experience. I really appreciate the opportunity to get to know individual pet's personalities and quirks, spend quality time with them, and figure out the sweet spot for pets and scritches. I'm currently going back to school and many of my classes are asynchronous so my schedule is generally pretty flexible and will work around your pet. As a result I am able to spend a lot of quality time with them and meet their unique, individual needs. Also if they want they can help me study to become a therapist! I have a small apartment on a beautiful property near downtown Ojai. I can unfortunately only board small dogs though. In a client's home I do my absolute best to respect your space as well as your pet. Let me know what you need to feel comfortable. I'm receptive to feedback and value open communication!
“Melissa was kind and welcoming. I have a senior dog who is going blind and deaf. Who also gets separation anxiety, he was a service dog for 17 years, now retired. He’s lost as how to be a regular dog at this age, so he can be needy. She did great with him.”
About: Lifetime of love and experience taking care of animals. From guinea pigs, birds and large tortoises to 100 lb dogs and many animals in between. I will provide a comfortable and safe family home, large fenced yard, two 30 minute walks/day, and infinite love. Don’t mind administering oral meds if needed. I work full time from home all days of the week/end and have a flexible schedule. Happy to provide morning and afternoon walks in a family friendly neighborhood. Your dog will get to stay in a loving family home and will have full access to large fenced yard with plenty of sunshine, grass and shade. Your dog will be pampered with attention, belly rubs and play time. Lots of sunny napping spots for when they want to chill.
“Although Macho was only with Mariana and family for six hours, they kept him occupied and he wasn't distressed from being away from his Mama. Definitely recommend Mariana and we'll be certain to avail ourselves of her services again ourselves. Macho's Dad”
“Kalia was easy to work with, great communication from the start. Provided me with updates and photos of Champ during his stay. I highly recommend Kalia if you’re in town and need someone to look after your pet!”
“My husband and I were visiting Ventura and in desperate need of a sitter for my dog. Chelsey was super professional, positive and very sweet. My baby was happy when I picked him up. I definitely will bring my dog back. Thank you Chelsey.”
“My two dogs loved Ashley! They have extreme separation anxiety being away from me, but they were so comfortable with Ashley and loved being with her! She took amazing care of them and sent updates throughout their stay! I will use her again! :)”
“Deandra was amazing with our puppy Kiwi! She was quick to respond, offered a meet and greet, have updates throughout the day and her dog Raja was really sweet and gentle with my high energy pup as well. Highly recommend!!”
“Kay did a great job taking care of Fletcher! He was all worn out from playing and running around the yard. She sent me plenty of pictures and updates. Would not hesitate to book with her again.”

“Sara saved our trip! We were camping in the area and planned a day out at the Channel Islands NP (not dog-friendly). Our original doggy sitter canceled on us two days before and we scrambled to find someone last minute. It was a blessing in disguise. Sara is the absolute sweetest! Communication was excellent. She updated us throughout the day with photos and kept our girl busy with playtime, a walk, and a hike. She was able to administer medication too. I can’t say enough good things! Thank you, Sara!”
“Alexandra and Billy were wonderful! We felt completely secure leaving our Dobie with them. They made him feel right at home and took him on fun walks and adventures. I would highly recommend Alexandra and Billy to anyone looking for a safe and reliable place where their fur baby will be loved and very well cared for. We look forward to reaching out to them again when we’re back in the area! 🐾”
“Ellen was great. She took great care of our pup and was very easy going. She even had some advice for activities in town that were really great. We will definitely see her again next time we are in town.”
About: Hello There! My little family and myself are pet lovers! 🥰 We have two dogs, two cats and a bearded dragon. Our home has always been a bit of a revolving door for furry friends. I have been dog walking and pet sitting locally for the past 17yrs and have plenty of references. I am out and about most mornings doing dog walks, typically 9/930-12ish and available again most afternoon or evenings depending on what you need. I work for an afterschool program during the school year so my schedule tends to open up a bit more during the summer. We have a high, fully fenced in back yard w plenty of shade. I tend to take boarded pups w me on my walks if the temperament works. We live in a very quiet little corner in Carpinteria surrounded by parks and bike trails.
“Words cannot express how wonderful Richard and Mystique are and the loving care they provide for our high energy puppy. They treat him like family, and he gives them hugs and kisses during daycare drop off. They also take the time to give our puppy leash training on walks. Absolutely recommend Richard and Mystique.”
“Katherine was courteous, kind, and made sure to tailor her care to Harry’s needs. I greatly appreciated the text and picture updates, as he is special needs and an older pup. She was phenomenal and we will definitely be back!”
“Kelsey is my #1 go-to dog sitter. My clingy heeler is always so excited to visit her. He can smell her neighborhood from out of the window and he starts barking on our way down the street to her house. She is understanding, flexible, kind, and she genuinely loves dogs. She also understands heelers and herding breeds, which is a huge plus in my book. 100000% recommend her. I'm a paranoid dog owner and I'm very selective about all of the choices I make for him. I'm always at ease knowing he is with her.”

“Mike was on time and courteous, and most importantly, developed an instant rapport with my skittish shepherd. He was great at handling her when she tried to bark at a little dog, and got her under control without being harsh. I feel good about him walking her alone.”
About: I love all critters, large and small. I have two large dogs which I have both trained. They are incredibly well behaved, but I know how to give them space to be rambunctious and playful.

“Mellisa is so sweet and was so patient with my wynni! At the last minute I contacted Mellisa for help walking my dog and she worked with wynni until she felt comfortable going out with her.

Dogs can free roam. Dogs eat in crates and get rest periods in crates if need be. Dogs need to be able to handle being in a crate for certain periods. Especially if they don't settle down at night and are destructive. But otherwise they are free range.
“jacquelyn was great! dropped my dog off to her for the weekend and received multiple updates each day. especially appreciated the photos and videos! when i picked up my dog he seemed to have had a good time ˙ᵕ˙”
“Thank you so much to Misty and her family who took care of my senior schnoodle for 4 nights! My pup seemed very relaxed and happy when I came to visit and I heard she enjoyed spending time with the kids. Misty gave my dog her meds and sent me photos. I was able to enjoy my retreat knowing she was in great hands.”
“Taryn was the perfect sitter that we needed for our Charlie. We needed someone that would give our dog the closest love & attention that we give too. Our regular sitter that we use from Rover wasn't available. Taryn had the perfect house & yard and provided us with updates & pics of Charlie while she was there. We felt assured & pleased knowing that Taryn loved & cared for Charlie as if it were her own dog. We also felt at ease knowing that we could contact Taryn anytime and that she had the flexibility to take care of Charlie. We knew that Charlie was safe and allowed to keep her routines that she would at home. We will definitely use Taryn in the future and recommend her to anyone. This has been a VERY positive experience (yet again) with Rover and we are so happy that we found Taryn.”
“Deandra did a great job with our doggo. Her dog was great with ours and she was intentional with how they greeted one another. Our dog came back home TIRED! Would def recommend and will for sure use again in the future.”
“Cooper and Nora had an absolute dream home to leave our family member, Moose. They checked in every day-exercised him well, and let him play with their dogs-he came home clean and happy-we couldn’t have been more thrilled to find such a caring family for our family member!”
“My Teddy Bear enjoyed his stay at Amber's house! He had a ball running around in her big, fenced in backyard and playing with her two girls! Teddy also enjoyed a nature walk! Amber's home is comfortable and she provided a very nice stay for my pup. She even gave me fresh eggs from her chickens! I highly recommend Amber and would not hesitate to use her again!”
“We had a wonderful experience and would give more than 5 stars if we could! Our dog was so comfortable and happy during her stay, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout our trip - we received regular updates and felt confident that our dog was well cared for. It’s clear they genuinely love animals and provide a safe, welcoming environment. We would happily book with them again and highly recommend to other pet parents!”
“We had a wonderful experience booking with Kalia. She was always quick to respond to booking requests, messages, and was very understanding when we had to cancel a different booking due to a change in plans. She sent regular updates and pictures of our boy and I could tell he was having a great visit with her and her two goldens. She put our mind at ease as this was our first time booking through Rover. We had used boarding facilities in the past and our boy would come back overstimulated and often with tummy issues, but it was not the case when he stayed with Kalia. We will definitely book with her again next time!”
“I give Sara 10 stars. Read the other positive reviews. They are all true. Kiki-Sweet Girl has special needs. Sara keeps her feeling so happy and feeling safe. We did a sample one-night boarding and are continuing with weekly recurring daycare and with multiple night boarding when we travel. Kiki loves Sara so much. Kiki also loves Sara's pup, Casper. No only does Sara do magic with communications with dogs and people, but she has exceptional skills in getting doggies to listen to her and to try their best for her. You will not be disappointed if you get Sara to be one of your dog's special people.”
“Alexandrea was great, she was so helpful and reassuring to me and provided a safe and comfy stay for my kitty while I was gone for the week :-) will definitely rebook if I’m ever on vacation again!”
About: Hi! We’re a dog-loving family offering a safe, loving home for your doggy. We have a one-year-old French Bulldog, Gigi, who would love a playful companion—that’s why we started offering boarding! We work from home with flexible schedules so your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and supervision. We have a secure, fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, and a clean, comfortable home where your dog can relax and feel at ease. We live close to a park and would love for your dog to join us on our daily evening walks. We have many years of experience as dog owners and understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. We’re a great fit for small to medium, friendly dogs who enjoy playing and being around other dogs and children. We can only consider dogs that are non-aggressive and great with other dogs and children. Please communicate with us about your pets needs and we’d be happy to accommodate. We’d love to care for your doggy like our own! We both work from home with flexible schedules, so your dog will get plenty of attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. We are available to board weekdays and weekends and over holidays. We have a fenced backyard and a French bulldog who loves company. Our doggy sleeps inside and has the option to play outside or hang out inside during the day. We take daily evening walks around the neighborhood or to the nearby park.
“Sheena was outstanding! Very communicative and took great care of our dog. Loved all of the photos she sent along the way. We felt very comfortable with her and our dog was happy when we arrived. If we need a sitter again, I will definitely see if she is available.”
“Stef and Matt took such good care of my pup! They sent lots of photos and made her feel at home. It’s clear they love their dogs and I’m grateful to have found them! Will definitely book with them again :)”
“Jody is so sweet and took such good care of Koda. He got lots of love from her and her family. When we picked him up he seemed like he didn’t even want to go home, he was enjoying it so much. She even washed his doggie bed.♥️ Jody’s location is perfect for us since we need to pass her house on the way to the airport. We will definitely choose Jody again to take care of our Koda.”
“Ellen was fantastic! She made my pup feel right at home, took her on walks, and shared thoughtful updates that completely put me at ease. You can truly tell that Ellen loves animals and takes such great care of them. I’d absolutely recommend her and can’t thank her enough!”
“Steph was great with my dogs. She was flexible and understanding to my dogs individual needs. She is wonderful and very easy to work with! I look forward to booking with her again soon.”
About: I have over a decade of experience handling dogs of all shapes, sizes and needs. Specializing in active pullers, rescues, and reactive dogs. I am comfortable and proficient with a variety of training equipment to fit your dogs needs and your specific training priorities. By observing the surroundings for triggers and your dog's body language for signs of stress, I ensure a safe experience. Every dog deserves a chance to get the mental and physical stimulation they need to live their best lives Dividing my time between dog training and volunteering at a local animal shelter let's me set my own schedule. Looking for extra dogs to walk to make up for the miles I can no longer put in with my senior Malinois. I have a securely fenced private yard for your dogs to play and multiple dog crates to provide each dog a secure place to rest. Leon my 10 yr old Malinois provides a calmly reassuring energy that helps guest dogs settle in.
