“Sandy is kind, trusting , and provided the best care for our French bulldog. She sent pictures and messages daily. I will be using Sandy every time I go away. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing my dog was in good care. I would highly recommend her and she deserves 5+ stars.”

“It was so nice to knowing my dog was in good hands, surrounded by lots of love, while I was out of the country vacationing. I was worried my Scooby would miss me, meanwhile he had a BLAST playing and eating good, doesn’t look like he gave me a second thought!!! He played with friends 🥹 and I love that I found the best sitter on here. My dog Scooby and I will absolutely be returning clients!!!”


“Truly exceptional care. Denise was very friendly. I picked up the dogs they were energetic and happy. Some minor changes to our vacation schedule were accommodated without issue. Highly recommended !!!!”

“Delmy and her daughter were so kind and just wonderful with my elder pup, Jake. Their home was warm, welcoming and super tidy. They provided daily photos and updates which were much appreciated. I would absolutely recommend booking Delmy and look forward to using her again. :)”

“Amber was the best sitter for our furbaby, Marla. She treated her like her own and took care of her while we were away. Marla enjoyed her vacation at Amber’s place. We will definitely book Amber’s service again.”

“Gerald watched our dog in his home for 10 days, and we couldn't have been happier with the experience. Our dog can get anxious when he's away from home, but he was calm, comfortable, and clearly well cared for throughout his stay. Gerald took him on walks in the nearby park and provided excellent care. He was also a fantastic communicator, sending regular updates, photos, and videos that gave us peace of mind and made us feel connected while we were away. I would absolutely recommend Gerald to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. We'll definitely be booking with him again in the future!”

“Jinay was phenomenal! She took such good care of my baby. She sent me daily updates of her and was always a text away. Majin was very happy under her care, and I could see that in the photos and videos that I got. This is my first time leaving my dog alone and I was a little bit nervous but Jinay did an amazing job reassuring me that my fur baby was good and in excellent conditions!”

“John was an amazing sitter for Benji. He was flexible and communicative. He took great care of my boy and Benji loved the company of John’s dog as well. Would definitely book with him again in the future!”

“Christine was a great host, she accommodated all the special needs of our old lady. The big grassy yard is a huge plus as our pup is an outdoor lover. Thanks Christine, we'll be back!”

“Eliana made my Velcro dog at ease. She was the only dog that night so she got to feel very special. Eliana made us feel very much at ease leaving her there. She sent us so many pictures throughout the evening to make us feel even more at ease. We live out of state but if we visit again, we would definitely let Snickelfritz stay there again.❤️”


“Catherine takes special care to accommodate each pet individually and follow any instructions . I have 2 seniors and they do very well at her home and in her care. They have stayed with her several times. She updates frequently which is a relief to me while away. This past stay was the longest so far and all went well. Great pet sitter”


“I'm giving a five star review for Dan. Dan and Denise were so wonderful with our dog Sparky. They sent us pictures and/or videos daily which really put us at ease. Our dog seemed very comfortable in their environment and I really appreciated Dan's dedication and patience. This was the first time we ever left him with a sitter and I would definitely recommend and book their services once again.”

About: I’ve taken care of many pets since I was young and I have always loved doing it! I myself have one cat and one dog. I’m working part-time and in school, so I am doing this on the side as an extra source of income as a college student and a way to express my love and passion towards animals. My job is in its slow season for the next couple of months, so my schedule is very open besides classes. I can tend to any needs necessary for your pets. I am willing to go above and beyond to meet your animals needs and make sure they are comfortable when being in my care, and I will always let you know if they are not.
About: I've taken care of multiple dogs and cats in my neighborhood. I watch dogs for my family and friends when they go away. I walk, feed, and play with their pets. I work part time, three days a week until 4 pm. I can walk dogs after work or any other day. I am available on the weekends. I currently do not accept boarding requests. When I am caring for dogs in their home I give them lots of love and attention and play. I take them on walks as needed or determined by their physical abilities. I am attentive and here to give your pet companionship!
“Jassah is the best bunny sitter we’ve used! She really cared about our buns, updated us consistently with pictures, answered all our questions about them, and does free roaming. All of this made us feel so relaxed knowing they were taken care of and receiving lots of love and attention. She even gave them Critical Care before we picked them up since she knew they’d be in the car for a few hours! As any bunny owner knows, finding pet sitters to trust is really hard since most aren’t truly rabbit-savvy, but she really understands how to care for them and our boys loved her! We can’t recommend her enough, she’s the best! Five stars!”

About: I am a retired elementary school teacher and have taught children for the past 32 years. I’ve always loved animals, especially dogs, and am eager to care for them when they are alone.

About: My name is Hannah. I worked at West hills animal hospital. My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 5+ years. i understand the importance of trusting someone to care for you "kids". i grew up with a household of furry friends! Many people thought my family was crazy for having so many pets! But i couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness to my family's life. seeing their little faces everyday just puts a smile on my face! I'm a stay at home mom with a 3 year old, so i have flexible hours, i will be delighted to watch your fur babies! I would like to keep your fur babies as close to their schedule as possible, I would love taking them for walks! I want them to feel as close to home as i possibly could!
“I am what you would consider a little "crazy" or "over protective" of my dog, and I have a hard time trusting anyone to care for him. I contacted Laurie after I had heard great reviews about her from the dog park. Within the first five minutes of meeting Laurie, I knew she was a very caring person who could easily be trusted! Someone who invests in astro turf for their yard, and uses not one, but two fences to keep these dogs safe is someone who cares! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in her care and I am grateful to know that I can bring my dog to daycare without having to worry about his safety. He also had a lot of fun! I highly recommend. :)”

“Jillian took a last minute request for us and was extremely nice. She was kind, provided updates when requested, and also was extremely flexible with our time. But a note, the bio does say non-smoking household and our dog did come home smelling like cigarette smoke, but other than that the experience was great.”

“Our second time using Eliana and she was amazing. Great communication, loved my dog as her own, and sent many pictures. Played with my dog, snuggled him, and walked him. Highly highly recommend!”

“Want to rest easy your pup is in good hands? Look no further you can rest easy that your dog will be well taken care of and happy here! My boy is special needs. I'm usually only tolerate one sitter where he's not immediately throwing up when he gets in the car from stress!!!! Cindy and Sonnie are caring and attentive and have a beautifully clean home that is super dog friendly! 10 out of 10 would absolutely recommend!!!”

About: I’m a retired professional with a calm, patient nature and a genuine love for animals. My sister has two dogs, one of whom is a super senior with special needs, so I’m very comfortable providing extra attention, patience, and thoughtful care. With a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to one-on-one care, I enjoy creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment for dogs and cats. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, medication routines, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet as if they were my own—offering reliable care and true peace of mind to pet parents. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. As a retired professional, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan my day around a pet’s needs rather than the other way around. I’m home for most of the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, medication schedules, and quiet companionship. I enjoy building consistent routines that help pets feel secure and comfortable, and I’m able to give them my full attention without feeling rushed. This flexibility also allows me to adapt easily to senior pets or those with special needs who may require extra time, patience, or monitoring. I tailor my care to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs—whether in my home or in a client’s home. I follow all feeding schedules carefully, provide fresh water, regular walks or playtime, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m especially attentive to senior and special-needs pets, including administering medications as directed and keeping a calm, consistent environment. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and space, making sure pets feel secure and comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I also keep pet parents updated with check-ins and notes so they can feel confident their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.
“Jennifer is amazing!! It’s my first time using Rover for my puppy and she put all my nerves at ease. She sent daily pictures and updates which I really appreciated. Noodle can’t wait to go back! Thank you again Jennifer!”

“Karishma made Chip feel welcome right away. She took great care of him and her genuine sincere affection for animals is heart warming. I would recommend Karishma to anyone that wants their dog to be cared for by a trustworthy and loving human being!”

“Brenda was so amazing with our Rocky! As a new dog mom I was so nervous about leaving him with someone but Brenda put me soo much at ease! So many pictures and videos updates really made me so comfortable. I will highly recommend Brenda! Your pup will be completely taken care of.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently own four dogs: two adult Belgian Malinois, a German Shepherd puppy, and a senior Shih Tzu mix. I have crate trained and potty trained multiple puppies and am familiar with the time, patience, and consistency required for successful training. Through caring for both high-energy working breeds and senior dogs, I have experience managing different exercise needs, routines, temperaments, and levels of care. I am committed to providing a safe, structured, and positive environment for every dog in my care. I am home most of the time and provide full-time care for the dogs in my home. Because I am available throughout the day, dogs receive regular supervision. I have a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely go outside for potty breaks and exercise. I am comfortable reinforcing crate training when needed and believe crates are a valuable tool for safety and routine. My own dogs are crate trained and are crated when they cannot be directly supervised to ensure their safety and prevent unwanted behaviors. I provide a structured, safe, and supervised environment while making sure each dog receives plenty of attention, care, and opportunities to play and relax.

“Maria did a great job with my dog Chippy! He was so safe and comfortable at her home. I got many videos and pictures of his stay which put my mind at ease. He even made best friends with her dog Joseph and didn’t want to leave!”

“Melissa was fantastic with our Dalmatian puppy Spot! Our furry baby adored his walks with Melissa and looked forward to them every day. Melissa took the time to understand our puppy's needs and always gave us updates for each walk, along with photos. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in need of a dog walker. Thanks so much, Melissa!”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Mackenzie and I’m a HUGE animal lover! Since I was young, I have always loved animals. I grew up with dogs in my family since the age of 4, and since I was an only child, it meant the world to me to have a fluffy companion to spend time with and care for. I have learned how to be a responsible and attentive pet owner by caring for my own pets, and by dog sitting or dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors. I am knowledgeable about different training techniques for younger pups, and I also know how to care for older pets who may need a bit more care. Whether your pet is a cat or dog, big or small, young or old, I promise to care for his/her as my own. I look forward to meeting your fluffy companions! I am currently working full time during the day on week day, so I am available for pet care week day mornings, lunches, and evenings. I am available any time on weekends and most holidays. I am a very mindful and diligent caretaker and continuously monitor a pet’s needs. I follow the care instructions and also go above and beyond to make sure your animal feels safe and comfortable around me, and you feel like you have trustworthy and supportive care.
“She is such a sweetheart. My dog loved her. After she dropped him off he stayed at the door for 2 hours waiting for her return. I look forward to setting up more dog walks and boarding services with Jassah.”

About: I’ve cared for family dogs my whole life and I’m usually the person family and friends call when they need a reliable pet sitter. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all personalities and also have experience administering medication to my own dog, Milo, so I understand the importance of consistency, routines, and paying close attention to a pet’s needs. With Milo, I handle everything from bathing and daily care to teaching basic tricks and maintaining a structured routine. I truly enjoy building trust with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. What makes me stand out from other sitters is the amount of time and attention I can dedicate to your pet. Starting in June, I’ll be home full-time during the weekdays and available for drop-ins and house sitting, allowing me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent potty breaks, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. For walks, I focus on making them both fun and mentally stimulating — not just a quick walk around the block. Depending on your dog’s personality and energy level, walks can include sniff breaks, exploring new routes, light training reinforcement, and engaging activities to keep them mentally enriched as well as physically active. My drop-in visits can include: * Potty breaks * Feeding and fresh water * Playtime and exercise * Snuggles and companionship * Basic routine care and attention For house sitting, I provide overnight stays along with attentive daytime care every 0–2 hours depending on your dog’s needs. This includes potty time, walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, medication if needed, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for in their own home environment. Pet care is already a huge part of my daily routine, so caring for animals comes very naturally to me. My own dog, Milo, has a structured schedule that includes walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, training reinforcement, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m very used to planning my routine around a dog’s needs and making sure they feel comfortable, stimulated, and cared for consistently. Starting in June, I’ll be home full-time during the weekdays, which allows me to give pets much more attention and companionship than sitters who may be balancing another full-time job. Because of this, I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, consistent supervision, and flexible scheduling for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting. I especially love building routines that help dogs feel safe and relaxed while their owners are away. I don’t believe pet care should feel rushed or transactional. I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with animals and paying attention to their individual personalities and comfort levels. Some dogs want long walks and active play, while others prefer slower walks, cuddles, or calm companionship. I adjust my care to fit each pet specifically. Mental stimulation is also something I prioritize because I know it’s just as important as physical exercise. During walks and visits, I like incorporating sniff time, interactive play, and enrichment activities to help keep dogs mentally engaged and happy. For puppies, I’m patient with routines, potty training consistency, and energy management, and for senior dogs, I understand the importance of slower pacing, medication schedules, comfort, and gentle care. One thing that makes me stand out is the level of attention and presence I provide. I’m not someone who simply stops in for the minimum amount of time and leaves. I truly enjoy bonding with pets and making sure they feel loved and comfortable while their owners are away. I also know how important communication is for pet parents, so I make an effort to send updates, photos, and details about how their pet is doing so they can feel reassured and connected. Whether it’s a walk, a drop-in, or overnight care, I aim to make pets feel like they’re spending time with someone they know and trust rather than just being “checked on.” I currently do not host pets in my own home, but I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of your home where they feel safest and most comfortable. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible while giving them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. For drop-ins, I provide potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, walks if needed, playtime, mental stimulation, and lots of cuddles and attention. For house sitting, I stay overnight with your pet and provide attentive daytime care including potty breaks every 0–2 hours depending on their needs, walks, feeding, medication administration if needed, playtime, and companionship. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and administering medication to my own dog, Milo, so I’m comfortable adjusting care to fit each pet’s personality and needs. Starting in June, I’ll be home full-time on weekdays, allowing me to provide flexible scheduling, frequent check-ins, and more quality time with your pet than many sitters are able to offer.
“Alejandro took care of our Siberian husky for almost a week and we got daily updates including videos. 100% recommended he has experiences with many dog breeds, he is trustworthy, and we and our dog felt comfortable which is the most important for us. Thank you Alejandro we’ll book again!!”
