“Easy 5-star review!! I really appreciate the flexibility on Danielle’s part to adjust around my very changing work trip. The dogs really were well looked after and enjoyed their stay. Thank you so much!!”

“Excellent stay. Kena was very communicative and I enjoyed all the updates and pics concerning my dog Lucy. The pup seemed really happy and well cared for. I would definitely book again!”

“I can’t say enough how happy we are with our experience! Such a wonderful experience. Ajax looks forward to playing and staying with Mitchell and her family. She’s always able to squeeze us in and our dog always comes home sleepy and happy”

“Jessica and Timare trully amazing. They were so accomodating to us during our wedding week and took care of our fur baby as if it was theirs. They are wonderful people and so sweet to our dog. We cN’t wait to come down to Sarasota and see them again. Don’t hesit”

“Holly took care of my very nervous 14 year old dog Abbie for 10 days. I received multiple photos and videos updates throughout the time. Holly patiently worked with Abbie, helping her to get over her fears. I now say my Abbie has two mommies! I recommend Holly without reservation. Your dog will be well taken care of while you are away.”

“Mary is absolutely amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. Her love for animals is very apparent- she is kind and caring and cares for the pets she sits as if they were her own. When she boards dogs at her house, they have ample room to run and a clean, safe environment. I would recommend Mary to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“Amazing Service!! I needed boarding for my dog Honey VERY last minute and Jessica was happy to help! She did a great job at caring for my girl and even sending photos of my dog throughout the time she was there, which I really appreciated. I would definitely rebook with her!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so being around them has always felt natural to me. I recently graduated from Chico state and currently have two dogs of my own a 6 year old toy poodle and a 5 months old border collie mix. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog or cat with someone else. That’s why I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and get cuddles, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work part time at Bath & Body Works and usually only have 2–3 shifts a week, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m not working, I’m home spending time with my own dogs. This allows me to be available for different drop-off and pick-up times and gives me plenty of time to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re one of my own. My home is a safe, loving environment where pets get lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal routine and help them feel right at home.

“Deena was great with my dogs she was very friendly and easy to communicate with. Greatly appreciate the photos and updates! The dogs had a great yard to run in with lots of toys. Highly recommend Deena for your pet sitting needs! Thank you!!”


“This was Beau’s first stay with Forest. He took Beau for long walks a few times a day, and he provided daily updates with photos. Forest treated our pup as if he were his own, and his home is well-suited for dogs. We would definitely use Forest again for our future boarding needs. Thank you!”

“Our girls had a wonderful time with Yesenia again! She was very accommodating with our schedule and we were very comfortable knowing she was watching our dogs. We will continue to use her in the future!”

“Even living in an apartment do not hesitate leaving large dogs here. Teralene is awesome. I have a very large lab and she handled her perfectly. 10 of 10 score. Thank you so much again see you next time”

“Our pups love staying with Lynn! They are always so happy to see her when we drop off. She spoils them and loves them like family. We never worry when we leave them with her because they are having their own vacation too!”

“Lesly was great with our Dog JJ. He was apparently very comfortable at her place and got lots of attention. She even Texted us several photos of him and he didn’t show any symptoms of separation anxiety, that we were worried about. Great Sitter!”

“Monisha was great with Wrex and provided lots of pictures and details of daily activities, including lots of walks. I will book with her again and was very happy with her service!”

“Lauren is wonderful! She is professional, friendly, and takes excellent care of our fur baby. While I hate to leave my cat for extended periods, it’s a great comfort knowing that she’s the one taking care of him. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I’ve cared for seniors, puppies, post surgeries, mischievous kitties and extra needy pets of all kinds ☺️ years of working with horses, living with my anxious chihuahua mix, and helping to raise the chunky pitties in my life has prepared me for almost every situation. I’ll keep a cool head and stick to your instructions while showering lots of love on your furry family member. I grew up around cats, dogs, horses, and birds! My love for animals knows no bounds, and I’m always the one getting distracted by a cute dog on the sidewalk (or TikTok). I’ve had great experiences booking care for my own dog through Rover, and I understand how hard it can be to find and trust the right person when we have to be away from them! My hope is that we can work together and create the best plan for keeping your furry kids happy and safe. I keep communication open and often so that we are all comfortable and on the same page. I pay attention and meet your pet where they’re at so we can build our own trusting and loving bond. I work remotely from home, so I can be flexible to meet your needs. My partner and I work together to ensure our own dogs are cared for, comfortable, and get lots of sniffing time outside. I’d love to speak with you about the best way to accommodate your schedule. I prefer to meet with you and your pet before scheduling a service to ensure that everyone is comfortable. I like to take the opportunity to ask any clarifying questions and walk through expectations so that there are no gray areas about the best ways to care for your pet and keep them safe.

“I had Danielle watch my 17 year old cat Missy while I was out of town for a week and she did an amazing job! I loved the daily pictures she sent me of my fur ball! If I could leave her a higher star review than 5 I would!”


About: I have over 6 years of experience caring for cats, including my own four with very different personalities, from playful kittens to more independent, sometimes feisty adults. This has taught me to read feline body language and give each cat the right mix of space, play, and affection. I’m comfortable with litter box cleaning, feeding schedules, administering simple medications, and light grooming. Whether your cat loves lap time or prefers quiet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, secure, and cared for.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I’m currently transitioning into trade school Friday–Sunday, which means I have plenty of time during the week to dedicate to your pets! I’m available Monday through Thursday for walks, drop-ins, and quality time with your furry (or scaly!) family members. I love building routines with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and happy while you’re away! For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.

About: While I don’t have cats of my own, I regularly take care of my mom’s cat when she’s out of town. I have helped her find a litter that works well for her, as well as replace harmful treats with ones that “make her fur softer than ever”. I recently met two cats who were polar opposites and I was lucky enough to be greeted by the one who never says hi to strangers :)
“Elise did a fantastic job watching our elderly, very particular dog. He normally is very scared of strangers, and will sometimes not go outside for walks with sitters. Elise did a great job of gaining his trust and getting him out! She was very accommodating, and on time.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have extensive hands-on experience caring for pets of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve pet sat many times, providing reliable care that includes feeding, walking, administering basic care, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently in school to become a veterinary assistant, which has strengthened my understanding of animal behavior, health, and safety. I take a calm, attentive approach to pet care and always prioritize each pet’s well-being. I attend school from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., which allows me to be available for pet care most afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Outside of school hours, I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent attention for walks, check-ins, and sitting. I plan my day carefully to ensure pets receive timely care, exercise, and companionship, and I am dependable with routines and schedules. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and routine. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routines, medication needs, and preferred activities. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment, while also maintaining a clean and safe environment. In a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything organized while ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that helps pets feel relaxed and well cared for while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had cats my entire life. I’ve dealt with a lot of different cats with extremely different personalities and I’ve loved them all. 2 of the cats I’ve owned have needed oral medication (pill and liquid), so I’m very comfortable doing that. I’ve also fostered many litters so they could find their forever home :)
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets since I was a kid, waiting for the day I got to have and love my own. I think our animals deserve all the love, attention and time we have as they deserve nothing less. I am now a stay at home mom to my baby girl born in 2024. She and our 2 dogs and 1 cat are my day to day. I would love to fill my days with more activity and love for more pets. Depending on your pets personality, wants and needs, I am here to give them all the love and attention I can. I love walks with our dogs, pets and scratches, play time/fetch, and am here to make them feel safe, happy, and like they’re the one on vacation :)

About: I have taken care of cats since I was very young. Growing up our cats were only out doors but I always made sure they were OK. 4 while growing up, 3 i fostered in high school, a mom and her 2 babies, 1 when I came to college, and then an additional 7 when I was older, I rescued a liter of 6 and a separate 2 yr old! Then a little one who didn't make it long, another rescue, and I now have yet another rescue from my uncle's orchard and my wife's cat so that is a total of 18 cats!!! I know how to shave them, administer medicine, clean them, all the steps!

About: I have a strong background in animal behavior, safety, and handling across a wide range of species including exotic pets, livestock, aquatic life, and common household animals. With 12+ years of experience working with horses and instructing beginner riders. I am experienced in professional dog bathing, small-scale breeding, livestock care, and much more. With entrepreneurial experience through ownership of Liv’s Critters, a reptile breeding and education business. I am an excellent and reliable communicator with a huge passion for animal welfare and education.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart as I have had several dogs since I was born that were all well loved. I offer loving, reliable care with plenty of play, cuddles, and attention to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or just some company while you're away, I treat every animal like my own. With experience, patience, and a calming presence, your pets will be in safe, happy hands if you decide to choose me to be your sitter. I currently have a lot of availability as I am not in school, but without a job. Thursdays I dont have any method of transportation other than walking or biking so I will only accept walking distance jobs on those days. I'm available any time between 10am and 7pm for non-overnight jobs. When caring for someones fur baby, I make sure to follow the owner's instructions carefully, keeping the pet’s routine consistent. I provide fresh food and water, ensure plenty of playtime, walks, or cuddles depending on their needs, and keep their environment clean and safe. I also send regular updates and photos to reassure the owner. Most importantly, I treat their pet as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, and attention throughout my stay.

“This is our first time using Rover and Danielle was great! We set up a meet and greet, which was super important as our Nala is a senior-pup and can be picky. Danielle was flexible the whole way through. Our plans changed during the day, and we needed to update our pick-up time - No Problem! Nala came home happy and looked like she'd had fun. Danielle even sent us some great pictures from Nala's stay. Would definitely book with Danielle again!”

“Kena always goes above and beyond she watched our two fur babies during our wedding helped drop them Off and pick them up from the wedding venue so They could be apart of the ceremony.

Rocky and Hachi loved going to Kena’s and can’t wait to go back. We will be forever thankful to Kena ! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts”

“My 2 dachshunds spent the day with Forest who was a kind, thoughtful and conscientious host. He had everything they needed for the day including a fenced backyard. I felt very comfortable leaving them even though I hadn’t had a chance to meet Forest before that day. I highly recommend him.”

“Jessica was great! She took our dog in last minute for the day and sent us updates throughout the time. The backyard was huge and had plenty of space for the dog to run and sniff.”


“Giovanna was very accomodating. She picked Ranger up every morning for his day fun with her. She was great about communication and has an obvious passion for dogs. Her home is beautiful, her own pup is a sweetheart, and my Rangy was able to have a nice escape while I was away.”

“Autumn was great!!! She came and met my dog before the doggy day care stay. She made sure my dog was comfortable with her and followed all my instructions. My dog got along well with Bruno, Autumn’s dog. Bruno is very friendly. She took videos of them playing and sent me regular photo updates,which I really appreciated. I will continue working with Autumn for doggy day care! Thank you!”

About: I have experience caring for many dogs for friends family and neighbors. I often would care for my neighbors dog since he was a puppy, parents worked full time and puppies need all the attention they can get so I helped train him. I also trained my own puppy Melo, he’s still growing and learning but I love being his mom. I take extra care of his supplements and nutrition so I know the importance of taking the extra time to do all of that. I have a verry good schedule with being home, I have two dogs of my own iam always coming home at lunch whenever I work. My husband also has a great schedule and helps me out whenever iam not here . When boarding with me I’ll have my dogs stay under my moms care while I pay full attention to your critter. I live in a house with a huge yard they can run around. I am also close enough to bidwell park to go on walks if you’d like that!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have experience with dogs who have special needs, specifically, neurological disorders requiring medication administration. I’ve spent the last two years training my dog, Bubba, through separation anxiety and reactive aggression. He went from chasing cats to occasionally taking naps with them. My first dog, Lilly, was reactive to dogs and when I brought home Bubba as a puppy, my family called him “snack” because they didn’t think it was possible, but she immediately took him in and they were inseparable for 7 years! I’ve always been gifted at reading animals - humans, not so much. I will always advocate for those who can’t advocate for themselves :) I’m available every day, whenever you need! I recently quit my job and needed a fun way to get a little extra cash before moving to the PNW! Unfortunately, my dog is an anti-social introvert and doesn’t like visitors. His house, his rules… However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet inside of your home!
About: I've looked after pets of all kinds including, cats, dogs, pigs, chickens and ducks to name a few. I have a good 7.5 years of experience under my belt and I have a high attention to detail to make sure that your fuzzy member of the family is getting top quality care. I am available Saturday through Tuesday, as those are my current days off. A typical day with your pet would include walks as many times a day as necessary, meals whenever they are typically had and plenty of play and relaxation throughout the day. If I have a meeting/appointment or need to leave the house for a bit, your pet won't be left alone for more than four hours.

About: About Me Hi! My name is Jalyssa, and I’m a 19-year-old Animal Science major currently in college with a huge passion for animal care and wellbeing. I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve had my own dog for 15 years, where I was actively involved in daily care, training, feeding, walking, grooming, and making sure all of their needs were met. Along with caring for my own pets, I also have experience pet sitting for others and helping raise puppies and kittens, so I’m comfortable with animals that need extra patience, attention, and routine. As someone studying Animal Science, I genuinely love learning about animal health and behavior, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, or just someone reliable to keep them company, I’m dedicated to making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. As a college student currently on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m looking for something productive that keeps me busy while also allowing me to do something I genuinely enjoy — spending time with and caring for animals. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I make sure pets are always supervised, kept in a safe environment, and cared for according to their specific routines and needs. I pay close attention during walks, feeding times, playtime, and interactions to ensure your pet stays happy, healthy, and stress-free. I also understand how important communication is, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: I have helped out w my friends pets, both dogs & cats throughout the years, I have worked w young & adult animals. With my flexible schedule, I can care for animals per their specific needs. My schedule is flexible since my daily job is a hairdresser, so I can adjust my schedule to fit in needs for each animal individually. I have a small fenced in yard at my home, would prefer to do in clients home, since most animals are more comfortable with that.

About: I've had animals all my life. I've cared for neighbor's pets since I was little and I have experience with animals of all sizes, from hamsters to horses! I have small pet, herp, and invert experience as well. I'm dedicated to providing the very best care for your pets! I have a flexible work schedule that allows me plenty of time to ensure your animals are perfectly cared for! I come to your home and ensure that every animal has food and water, that everyone is healthy and happy, and spend time with each animal.
About: I’ve taken care of neighbors pets since I was a kid, waiting for the day I got to have and love my own. I think our animals deserve all the love, attention and time we have as they deserve nothing less. I am now a stay at home mom to my baby girl born in 2024. She and our 2 dogs and 1 cat are my day to day. I would love to fill my days with more activity and love for more pets. Depending on your pets personality, wants and needs, I am here to give them all the love and attention I can. I love walks with our dogs, pets and scratches, play time/fetch, and am here to make them feel safe, happy, and like they’re the one on vacation :)
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart as I have had several dogs since I was born that were all well loved. I offer loving, reliable care with plenty of play, cuddles, and attention to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or just some company while you're away, I treat every animal like my own. With experience, patience, and a calming presence, your pets will be in safe, happy hands if you decide to choose me to be your sitter. I currently have a lot of availability as I am not in school, but without a job. Thursdays I dont have any method of transportation other than walking or biking so I will only accept walking distance jobs on those days. I'm available any time between 10am and 7pm for non-overnight jobs. When caring for someones fur baby, I make sure to follow the owner's instructions carefully, keeping the pet’s routine consistent. I provide fresh food and water, ensure plenty of playtime, walks, or cuddles depending on their needs, and keep their environment clean and safe. I also send regular updates and photos to reassure the owner. Most importantly, I treat their pet as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, and attention throughout my stay.

“Holly took care of my very nervous 14 year old dog Abbie for 10 days. I received multiple photos and videos updates throughout the time. Holly patiently worked with Abbie, helping her to get over her fears. I now say my Abbie has two mommies! I recommend Holly without reservation. Your dog will be well taken care of while you are away.”

“Mary is absolutely amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. Her love for animals is very apparent- she is kind and caring and cares for the pets she sits as if they were her own. When she boards dogs at her house, they have ample room to run and a clean, safe environment. I would recommend Mary to anyone looking for a responsible, reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“Amazing Service!! I needed boarding for my dog Honey VERY last minute and Jessica was happy to help! She did a great job at caring for my girl and even sending photos of my dog throughout the time she was there, which I really appreciated. I would definitely rebook with her!”


“This was Beau’s first stay with Forest. He took Beau for long walks a few times a day, and he provided daily updates with photos. Forest treated our pup as if he were his own, and his home is well-suited for dogs. We would definitely use Forest again for our future boarding needs. Thank you!”

“Even living in an apartment do not hesitate leaving large dogs here. Teralene is awesome. I have a very large lab and she handled her perfectly. 10 of 10 score. Thank you so much again see you next time”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Cedar, over Memorial Day weekend! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear Mark was going to treat her like one of the family. We received regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Cedar came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in a home full of love and attention. We’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and thoughtfulness—and we’ll absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend!”

“Heather took great care of our dog while we were gone. She spoiled her and sent us daily pictures and updates. Definitely eased our anxiety of being away from our sweet pup. Would definitely recommend Heather and rebook for any future trips.”


“Lynette was nothing less than fantastic. Scout was happily exhausted and seems to have made some new friends. Lynette sent frequent updates and let us share in the fun with pictures.”
