“We used Rover for the first time and had an absolutely wonderful experience with Jolene and Thomas. We felt very comfortable meeting Jolene. She provided excellent updates and pictures throughout the weekend. We can tell that our dog also was very comfortable in their home and returned to us well taken care of. Jolene and Thomas provided excellent care and we recommend them without any reservations”
“Angela and family welcomed Sadie as a member of the family. Photos and updates were appreciated. Sadie has a facial wound from roughhousing with their husky Busky. Play hard at one’s own risk. Thanks Angela”
“Melissa is absolutely amazing. She took wonderful care of our little Annie, while we were in town for a wedding. We got daily pictures and updates. She got lots of snuggles and spoiling. I would definitely use again and highly recommend you choose her for your babies care.”
“Julie was very responsive to my last-minute booking request, which was made when our regular sitter cancelled. She took great care of our pups and sent regular updates with pictures. We felt very comfortable leaving our dogs for the weekend and will definitely use her services the next time we're in the area.”
About: I have 20+ years of experience taking care of senior dogs, puppies, and rambunctious teens. I lost my senior girl in August 2026 and have wanted to spend time with the energy and love of dogs since then. She was on a few medicines, but we made her sunset years beautiful and fun. I would love to spend time with your pets, making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable while you are gone! I’m currently looking for remote work and have all the time in the world for your pets! I am interested in spending time outside with pets, making sure they are having fun while you are gone! My home is open to dogs, but unfortunately an allergy prohibits cats. I have a ranch style house which is nice and easy for seniors to get in and out of. The backyard is fenced so they can roam, or we can put on a leash and explore the land around us. I have dog beds and toys for them to tear up or carrying around - whatever’s clever!
“Julia is genuinely outstanding! it is clear she cared so much for my pup and had the knowledge to handle an energetic and sometimes stubborn doggo. My only worry was that my dog seemed to be happier with Julia than she is with me! Highly, highly recommend Julia for any of your pets, she is an absolute gem:)”
“Raffelina is an excellent" puppy sitter". She took care of our 15 year old and our 1 year old. She took great care of our older dog who can't hear or see and I believe she was very caring and loving toward her. The same with our little puppy who demands a lot of attention too. Communication with us was exceptional. We received both texts and pictures. I highly recommend Raffelina to care for any pets.”
“Alexa was so great with Leo and I really appreciated the photo updates she gave. In chatting with her for a few mins, I instantly felt at ease leaving my pup over night. He had a great time and I will always check if Alexa is available whenever I’m back in the area. 100% recommend. Thanks again!”
“The dogs loved Billy and being at his place. He was super helpful in communicating with friends about pick up drop off details. Would def have them stay there again when I am in town in need of dog sitting.”

“Anastacia took such great care of our Franklin! Great communication and always sent pictures with her updates. Will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I have over 12 years of professional experience working with dogs, including shelter and rescue work, animal control, and managing a busy dog daycare and boarding facility. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities, including puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and dogs that may need a little extra patience. I have extensive experience reading canine body language, managing safe dog interactions, following feeding and medication routines, and recognizing when something just isn’t quite right. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care like an individual and want them to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is something I’m used to planning my schedule around. I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and sitting. As I take on part-time work, I’ll continue scheduling bookings around my work hours so every pet gets the time, attention, exercise, and routine they need. I try to keep each pet’s routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely and make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and downtime based on their individual needs. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep things clean and secure. In my home, I focus on creating a calm, safe environment and closely supervise interactions so every pet stays comfortable and happy.
About: I love animals but unfortantly live in a place where I am unable to have my own. I am flexible with my availability, because I work for myself. I am an energetic person and I love going on runs and seeing the sites. Your fur-ball would have a great time and get all of their energy out when booking with me. Animals need some time to get out of the house just like people, I would provide that type of service. I do not like being cooped up in a home, I like to see as much as I can by going far and wide. A skill that I posses is that I can pilot a single engine plane. I am also an avid runner. I work part time at a restaurant for a max of 6 hour shifts. I am able to be around for the majority of the days. I own a home in a quiet neighborhood with a partially fenced in yard. You’re pet can wonder all around the home and will be walked around a neighborhood with minimal traffic.
“Cassidy was great! She stayed with our cat while we were out of town for 2 weeks. The house was clean and tidy when we got home and all our plants were looking good too. I would recommend and rebook for sure.”
“With so much stress in the world it’s very refreshing to feel totally comfortable leaving my furry best friend with someone like Julia. My pup took to her immediately. Highly recommend Julia and I’ll look her up next time I’m in need of a dog sitter in Salida.”
About: I realize that some cats will not love me, because I've owned and taken care of many, and some cats don't love anyone! So I don't take it personal. Fun fact: I once adopted 2 cats from a friend of mine.

“Our two dogs had a lot of fun at Anastacias property with her friendly kids and dog. They took our dogs to the river and let them play outside a bunch. Our dogs were tired from playing and well cared for. Would recommend and bring our dogs there again.”
“Julie was so flexible and kind to let Mia stay with her for two days!! I could tell Mia had a blast because she slept peacefully for hours after her playdate. If I am ever in the area again I will be rebooking her ☺️”
“Paige was great. I was in Salida working at an event and she picked up and dropped off my dog, she was very punctual. Our two dogs got on well. My dog went on long hikes and was happy and tired when I got her back. Would definitely recommend Paige for anyone needing a sitter or dog walker.”
“Leanne is great! Obviously she and her husband are dog lovers, both gentle and professional, and they have a very sweet older poodle which my pup Brody got along with very well. We just had to leave town for the day so Brody had daycare and Leanne was very flexible with my drop off and pick up times as my schedule changed as the day went by. I got three pictures during the day including one that showed them taking a walk. A lovely home in a quiet neighborhood with a huge yard, though not fenced, allowing for easy access for safe walks. Brody seemed calm and content when I picked him up and we would use Leanne again and recommend her highly. Great to have a local resource as needed! Thanks!”

About: Animal lover with a home to share. I have had pets since I was little and promote positive reinforcement with my pet training. I live on 3.75 acres with access to many walking trails right from the house and love to have a good excuse to get outside through out the day. I work for myself from home so I am very flexible and do not have any other pets that live with me at the moment. I would be happy to help you out when you are away! I work for myself from home so I am very flexible with my availability. I enjoy exercise so an excuse to walk a dog a few times a day works great with my schedule. I have a fenced portion of my yard and do not have any other pets in the home. I am clean and do not have a lot of clutter so there is not a lot of stuff for pets to get into.
“My dog had a fabulous day with Alexa today! Lots of outdoor time with texts and photos which definitely allowed me to enjoy my day as well knowing that my dog was having fun and not home alone. Made me wonder if she would want to come home since she was having such a lovely day!”

“Casey was quick to respond and I really appreciated the pictures of Piper! She was kind enough to come to my VRBO house and walk my spunky Jack Russell while we were out. I would definitely recommend Casey to friends & family!!”
