“Melissa and family gave Ranger the best weekend while I was out of town. She kept me in the loop with respect to his sleeping and eating habits, familiarization with other pets in the home, and shared many photos along the way. I would absolutely book with Melissa again. Thanks so much, Melissa!”
“Our dog Mookie had a wonderful stay with Kelvin & Monica! This was my first time using Rover and having Mookie stay with a pet sitter while we are on vacation, but they made the process so easy, and I was able to enjoy my vacation! They took wonderful care of him, and were very communicative with updates and pictures. I felt such a sense of relief, knowing that he was being well cared for. They were very quick to respond, and very flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pick him up a little bit later than originally scheduled. I look forward to working with them again in the future!!”
“Sridevi is a great host for my kitten, Mochi! He stayed with them over the holidays. She made him feel at home with lots of care and toys and activities. She provided frequent videos and photos and kept me updated. She also provided video call. Highly recommended!”
“I couldn’t be happier with how Priscilla looked after my dog Piper! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Piper left her very happy! We have already booked Priscilla for our next trip. 5 stars!”
“Outstanding!! This was the 1st time leaving Milly overnight. I was nervous & actually cried. Ann reassured me that Milly would become a part of her family. Ann's quiet home & calming manner was a perfect match. She sent frequent pictures with updates. Thank you!”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“Cathy is very personable and made all us feel welcomed when we were looking for a sitter for the first time. She’s flexible and accommodating and Now We are a repeater like so many others. We highly recommend Cathy!”
“Lieb’s son took personal care of our Blondie. She came back tired and exhausted from all the fun fetch and swim play she had. If your dog loves playing in the pool this is definitely a great option. The owner’s dog Jaguar is well trained and has such calm temperament that even surprised me. Lieb took us in a last minute situation which was great all around.”
“Wonderful family! I got pictures every day of my little fur baby Bogart having a great time and being loved. Bogart has always slept in a human bed and he wants to cuddle - Irene and Ken made sure he was well loved. It is a pleasure to have met them all!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“This was our first time using this app and we had an amazing experience with Maureen. She was the perfect caretaker for our Puma. She gave us perfect peace of mind during our trip that Puma was well taken care of.”
“Demetra was amazing!! We loved their family and our pug was so happy! He had such a great time with them and they took such good care of him! I am looking forward to bringing him over again!”
“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”
“Sunny is the best caregiver. Attends to all details and takes notes for any quirks and preferences. I feel as close to my dog as when I am at home because she constantly gives updates with details and pictures/videos.”
“Aeli was very responsive and caring with our dog. We were really appreciative that she sent photos on a regular basis and asked questions to ensure he sticks to his usual routine.”
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“Celeste did an amazing job taking care of my greyhound. Jolteon is terrified of cars and Celeste went way out of the way to make sure my pup was comfortable and safe. She gave him his medication without any difficulty at all. Her price is great for the care that she provides. I highly recommend booking Celeste to take care of your animals. I will be using her services be again very soon.”
“Mi was caring; provided outstanding care to Lily. She was very attentive and supportive regarding Lily's needs. Mi sent us updates along with videos and pictures of Lily's day. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Lily was in good hands. For our next vacation, we would definitely use Mi again.”

She sent us pictures of Ollie, too, and provided excellent feedback! We will most definitely use Kellianne again and would highly recommend her to care for your pets! If I could give her 10 stars, I would!!!”
“Emma was absolutely terrific with our cat Chi-Chi, who can be very standoffish with unfamiliar faces at first. Everything went smoothly with the schedule, and she went above and beyond, spending quality time playing with Chi-Chi. I highly recommend Emma; she is extremely punctual, professional, and will definitely be our first choice the next time we are out of town. She's definitely worthy of a five-star rating.”
“Kerri did a great job taking care of our cat, Ash, while we were away on vacation. She arrived every day at the agreed-upon time, completed the tasks we requested, and even took extra time to play with our kitty. She communicated with us each day, giving us the peace of mind that everything was OK while we were away. Kerri is definitely the first one I'm calling for our next vacation.”

About: I grew up with a cat from kitten through old age. When I was old enough to move out I made sure to rescue a geriatric cat to give her the best possible life with the years she had left. My wife and I gave her the best 6 years we could have ever imagined. Taking care of an older cats came with ailments, medications and special care. All of which were done with love to make their lives the best they could have. Cats will always have a special spot in my heart!
“My experience with Robyn was excellent! She is extremely reliable, very good at communicating, and followed all instructions for my puppy, Potato. I received regular photo updates, and she made sure he stayed on his feeding, walking, and potty schedule. She even accommodated a last minute time change, which I really appreciated. I felt confident that he was safe and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely book again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for trustworthy, pet sitter !”

“Lauren watched our dog twice. She was fantastic both times. Our dog, Rylee, likes all people but she really took to Lauren. And for good reason -- Lauren is a true dog lover. She walked Rylee each time and sent us pics during the day. Finally, Lauren went above and beyond. Our car broke down in Moss Landing and had to be towed back to Pacific Grove. Lauren kept Rylee into the evening and brought her to us. We recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve had dogs in my life since the fourth grade, and I truly can’t remember a time without one! Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all kinds—whether for neighbors, family, friends, or even friends of friends. I’ve cared for puppies up to senior pups.Dogs have always been a part of my everyday life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. We absolutely adore our Chihuahua, Romeo, and we’d care for your furry friend just like we care for him — with love, patience, and lots of cuddles. My husband and I split our work-from-home days, so someone’s almost always around during the week, and we're both home on weekends. We do not go out much. We are home bodies and like it that way. I have a fully wooden fenced with chicken wire backyard and live in a quiet, dog friendly neighborhood with very little traffic. If your pup needs a crate, that’s totally fine we can manage that otherwise, they’re welcome to roam free and make themselves at home. We only have one resident dog, a sweet little Chihuahua whose favorite activity is sunbathing and napping.
About: Our pets always feel safe and loved, so will yours! We have 2 small dogs (yorkies) who are friendly and happy to accommodate more friends. Our family LOVES animals (especially small dogs) and we will make yours feel part of our pack! I work full time but close by for potty breaks and feedings. I can offer a regimen if needed. Play, food, rest and everything in between! Weekends are more relaxed and laid back and the pooches enjoy more of our attention on those days! I have a fenced in yard with lots of space to run, frolic and play. Dogs can also relax on our furniture and sleep comfortably. Our house is quiet for the most part and we have storm doors that act as another layer of protection for those little runners!
About: I have always owned/ cared for pets my entire life, which makes 25 years of caring for pets. I went to SUNY Alfred State College of technology, where I received my associates degree in veterinary technology, as well as a bachelors degree in technology management Fall of 2021. I started off volunteering at animal shelters in the fall of 2016. I worked as a Kennel assistant throughout the years of 2016 to 2020. I worked as a Veterinary Assistant from 2020 to 2023. I am currently a Veterinary Technician (Emergency animal nurse) at Veterinary Emergency Group. I have animal training, grooming, and Veterinary medical experience. I work a full time job at Veterinary Emergency Group three days a week. 12 hour shifts. I can also bring pets to work with me as well. So I am available all days out of the week. I do not have a fenced in yard, but there is a hiking trail around the corner from my home where I walk my own dogs daily. Pets will never be put in a crate. (Unless you prefer for them to be crated) They are welcomed to walk around my house, on the couch, and in my bed. I feed my dogs twice a day and they get walked 3-4 times a day. Whenever I have to run errands they stay at home with pee pee pads located around the house.
About: I’ve had two dogs in my lifetime each for 12 years and I’ve always loved to be around them and to make sure they were safe and felt happy. I treat each pet like family. My reliability, calm demeanor and love for animals make both pets and their owners feel at ease. I will walk the dog everyday and I can board dogs every weekend. I have experience taking care of a French bulldog named Randy. Sometimes I go there to take care of him and other times I bring him to my apartment. I have space in our apartment for the dog to roam around and I live in a safe dog friendly neighborhood in which we can take the dog for long walks near a park and a pond.
“Danielle is awesome, she’s responsible and aware of our needs. A truly reliable dog sitter with a beautiful home that is well kept and free of any hazards. We will use her again for sure!”
About: I grew up with both dogs and cats, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have hands-on experience caring for dogs belonging to friends, family members, and clients—including dogs with anxiety, especially while their owners are traveling. Many of these dogs had previously stayed in large commercial boarding facilities where multiple dogs share the same space, which often increased their stress and anxiety. I’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference a calm home environment and personalized one-on-one attention can make. I am also certified in American Red Cross Cat and Dog First Aid, so I’m prepared to respond in case of an emergency and provide attentive care for your pets. I focus on patience, consistency, and gentle, loving care to help each dog feel safe, comfortable, and secure. With dedicated attention and companionship, I’ve watched anxious dogs gradually become more relaxed and confident—sometimes they even seem reluctant to leave! :) I’m home full-time to care for your pup. This means your dog will receive plenty of attention, regular walks, and consistent, loving care throughout the day. I have the time and flexibility to focus on your dog’s individual needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. I keep my schedule flexible, but I only care for one dog at a time to provide the best possible experience. Because of this, spots can fill quickly—especially during holidays—so please plan and book in advance. Located in a quiet, friendly neighborhood, my home is designed to provide comfort, security, and plenty of room for your dog to relax and play. Your pup will enjoy a park-like backyard—nearly half an acre—fully fenced for safe exploration and outdoor fun. Whether they love to run, sniff, or simply lounge in the sun, there’s plenty of space to feel at home. In the summer, I also set up a dog-friendly swimming pool so they can cool off and have some extra fun. I share my home with a very friendly 9-year-old Black Lab who is gentle, well-socialized, and enjoys calm companionship with other dogs. To ensure every dog gets the attention, care, and comfort they deserve, I typically host only one dog at a time (with a maximum of two during holidays). This allows me to focus on your dog’s individual needs and create a low-stress, personalized experience. Your dog will be treated like family here—safe, happy, and well cared for every step of the way.
“Our dog always has the best time with Aeli and her dogs! She sends so many pictures and was able to watch her on Thanksgiving which was so helpful. Ruby can’t wait to go back!”
About: I love dogs, and that is a total understatement. Dogs have been a part of my life ever since I can remember. I grew up treating Schnauzers, Terriers of all sorts, and later Labradoodles as members of my family. I’ve always been willing to help out in any way possible when a friend needed help walking and taking care of their fur babies. I will treat yours like a member of my own family. I’m a teacher, so my summer is quite free to care for your fur baby. I’m grateful for the opportunity to connect and care for your dog. I will set aside both time for your dog to get cared for, fed and do their business, as well as play and give your fur baby the attention it deserves.
“Hope is a saint!!! She was kind enough to give my dogs a chance for doggy day care at her home. She was gracious enough to get to know them to make sure all parties were comfortable. I really appreciate her approach and attentiveness with myself any my pups. She really put my soul at ease with her communication and photos that made me smile. If I could I would have a repeat stay for my dogs but of course she was booked and busy. You will not have to worry at all.”

I also have a large front yard for play time. There are sidewalks all through town, which is close to my home for walks.
About: I have experience working in an animal care setting. I’ve worked in multiple animal hospitals as a Veterinary Assistant/Technician and/or Kennel/Boarding Attendant. I am planning on returning back to school to become a Veterinary Technician due to my love for caring for animals. I have dog and cat sat for family, friends, and neighbors on multiple occasions. Your pets will be in good hands under my care! I promise to love your pets like my own pets! The best part about working in an animal hospital with a boarding facility is I can bring my dogs and cats to work with me! They will have a fun and playful experience with other dogs while being properly supervised. I have a mini golden doodle. He is very well behaved. I will apply all the instructions my clients gave me to make sure their pet is happy and comfortable.
About: I personally own two labradoodles myself. I have volunteered at multiple rescues, been a dog walker, trainer, and provided home sitting. This job needs attention to detail and care and that is exactly what I provide. Safety is priority. All animals that come under my care are brought out in a fenced yard or on a leash. Belly rubs, cuddles, and scratches are second priority! I am happy to send videos from walks together. Very dependable and reliable. I will treat your pet as if it were my own! I am available for mornings, afternoons, and evenings 7 days a week! I need at least three days notice so I can schedule this in. I have a fenced yard. Even with a fenced in yard I will keep your dog on a leash unless told otherwise. I will check dogs for tics.

“Our dog Mookie had a wonderful stay with Kelvin & Monica! This was my first time using Rover and having Mookie stay with a pet sitter while we are on vacation, but they made the process so easy, and I was able to enjoy my vacation! They took wonderful care of him, and were very communicative with updates and pictures. I felt such a sense of relief, knowing that he was being well cared for. They were very quick to respond, and very flexible when our flight got delayed and we had to pick him up a little bit later than originally scheduled. I look forward to working with them again in the future!!”
“Sridevi is a great host for my kitten, Mochi! He stayed with them over the holidays. She made him feel at home with lots of care and toys and activities. She provided frequent videos and photos and kept me updated. She also provided video call. Highly recommended!”
“I couldn’t be happier with how Priscilla looked after my dog Piper! She sent lots of pictures and updates. Piper left her very happy! We have already booked Priscilla for our next trip. 5 stars!”
“So glad I found Brittany and Benji! Felt comfortable right away leaving my beloved furry friend with her ! My dog loves her and has a blast playing with her dog Benji! Communication was responsive and friendly all throughout my dog’s stay. Highly recommend!”
“Lieb’s son took personal care of our Blondie. She came back tired and exhausted from all the fun fetch and swim play she had. If your dog loves playing in the pool this is definitely a great option. The owner’s dog Jaguar is well trained and has such calm temperament that even surprised me. Lieb took us in a last minute situation which was great all around.”
“Wonderful family! I got pictures every day of my little fur baby Bogart having a great time and being loved. Bogart has always slept in a human bed and he wants to cuddle - Irene and Ken made sure he was well loved. It is a pleasure to have met them all!”
“Lisa was very kind and caring with my Junie. She sent me texts and pictures and I was put at ease immediately. I would definitely recommend her and look forward to using her services again.”
“WOW. This is my first time with Brittany. Brittany is amazing. Brittany devoted so much time to Drew. Although Brittany has a fenced in yard, she took our dog on two walks each day. They went to the park. They had movie night together. Brittany is a rare find. When I picked my dog up, you could see how much HE enjoyed staying with Brittany—his tail was wagging, he was smiling (yes, my dog smiles) and he was licking Brittany affectionately as we were saying goodbye. I’ve had a number of other dog sitters, but Brittany just goes the extra mile. Again, she’s incredible and puts all our other sitters to shame. We are definitely spoiled and will use Brittany again anytime we need a sitter.”
“It was a pleasure working with Matthew! He is an excellent communicator and was very flexible with our schedule. He took wonderful care of Summer, providing regular photo updates and real-time feedback that gave me complete peace of mind. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Mickey was great! His entire household was very welcoming and he understood our senior dog’s needs. He was great at keeping us up to date with pictures and texts and made sure Duke was comfortable. Highly recommend!!”
“Very positive experience with a 5 night boarding stay with Carolina's family. She's very pleasant to deal with, and she seems to be a very experienced dog owner. My dog seems to have really enjoyed his stay, playing with her Sheepadoodle. They have a very nice enclosed backyard where the dogs can plan outside. It made it very easy to go away on vacation for the week knowing our dog was in good hands. Will definitely rebook in the future and would highly recommend.”
“Valentina took great care of my dog, Nubya! She was responsive and friendly throughout all of our communication and shared frequent updates with pictures. It's clear from talking to her that Valentina loves dogs and I am so glad to have found her for when we need someone to watch Nubya!”
“Joannie was great with everything! So happy we found her to watch our senior dog Layla. Communication was great from the start to the end. Joannie made Layla feel so at home and loved.”
“This was our third time using this sitter, and we’ve always felt very comfortable leaving Buddy with them—but this time truly showed how exceptional they are. We had an unexpected emergency with Buddy involving a neurological issue, and they handled it calmly and professionally. They called me immediately, followed my instructions exactly, and kept me updated throughout, which really helped put me at ease during a very stressful situation. They are incredibly responsible, attentive, and reliable. I’m so grateful for the care they gave Buddy and the support they gave me. I highly recommend them and look forward to bringing Buddy back once he’s feeling better.”
“As a first time puppy owner, I had many specific request I wanted from a petsitter. Not only Hope took care of Coco exactly how I needed she sent pictures and updates throughout the day which eased my mind tremendously. She’s a true dog lover and I would definitely use her in the future.”
“I got a good first impression of Robyn when I met her - she’s really warm and friendly. My dog has separation anxiety and gets really nervous when she’s away from our family, but she was relaxed and happy when we picked her up. Robyn is a wonderful pet sitter who took excellent care of my dog! We’ll definitely have her sit again next time we’re in town.”

About: I grew up in a dog‑loving home and had the privilege of caring for several breeds over the years — first a Boxer, then a Siberian Husky, later a German Shepherd/Malamute mix, and eventually a Pomeranian. Being around such different personalities taught me how to understand dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Because of that experience, family, neighbors, and friends have always trusted me to check in on their pets, feed them, play with them, and make sure they feel safe and cared for. No one will be assisting me with care. I also accept rabbits and small pets for boarding. Owners must provide cage, food, and supplies. Because I work from home, I’m able to give your dog consistent attention and care all day long. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping them company, I’m always close by. I also offer 24/7 boarding availability, ensuring your pet has a safe, supervised environment at all times. Your dog will have plenty of room to feel at home here. I live on an acre of land with a dog run and a peaceful neighborhood that’s ideal for daily walks. There’s even a small pond with geese right across the street, which many dogs find entertaining. Inside, the living room is designated as comfortable, pet‑friendly space where your dog can relax. I also provide a crate for dogs who prefer a cozy, enclosed sleeping area.
