Personalized care for your dog or cat - Joaquin

Highly-rated overnight sitters - Joaquin
“He was a great sitter. He took really good care of my fur baby and provided updates on her care. He even sent pictures and a video. This was my first time using this service and Dustin made it very easy. I will most definitely use him to keep her again.”


“Superior dog sitter. We just love her and our dog Jack is so happy staying with her and her attention to dog kindness is undeniable. She sent me pictures everyday and let us know how our dog as doing. We left for 11 days and were so happy that we did not have any worry about him and that he was being taking care of with love from wonderful Susan. I have had her sit before for a few days but this was so memorable and made our 11 days away free for us. She is very special to us and very affectionate to all her dogs that she takes care of. Thank you so much Susan. Caroline, Wade, and Jack ”

“5 stars isn’t enough honestly! 🐾❤️ Thank you so much for taking such amazing care of my dog while I was away for my birthday trip. From the moment I dropped her off, you made me feel comfortable and reassured that she was in loving hands. The communication was excellent, the care was genuine, and I could truly relax and enjoy my trip knowing my baby was safe and happy. You can tell you genuinely love animals and treat them like family instead of just “watching pets.” That meant everything to me. My dog came back happy, well cared for, and full of love. Reliable, trustworthy, patient, and caring — I would absolutely recommend you to anybody looking for an amazing dog sitter. Thank you again for going above and beyond. We truly appreciate you! ❤️”

“Very friendly and helpful. Good communication with quick responses. Flexible around pickup/ drop off times. Charlie seemed calm and comfortable after the stay...first use of Rover.com - very impressed!”
“Thank you so much Barbara for watching Oreo last minute! Barbara was so accommodating and friendly! Oreo was well taken care of and loved being at her house. She stayed in communication with me as well! 100% would recommend and have her watch Oreo again!”

“Dustin was fantastic with our Oreo. He came to the house daily and checked in on her and sent pics with updates. She usually has a bit of separation anxiety and doesn't eat much when we're gone, but her bowls were empty each day, which is a good sign. Oreo has found a new friend, we'll be using him again in the near future.”

“I always enjoy Kathryn being around Marley, she is truly amazing on what she does. You can see the love she has for dogs. I was comfortable knowing that she will do a few drop ins with Marley while we were at Disneyland. I totally recommend her. Can’t wait for the next one, Marley loves you!”

About: Pet sitting is awesome because I want to spend time with as many wonderful pets as I can. I'll treat them just as well as I would like my pets to be treated since I know how important they are. Prior to Good Dog, I would pet sit for family, friends and neighbors. They deserve the best care even the little rambunctious ones. I have been working and volunteering in pet care for years. Interacting with any animal makes me happy but bunnies will always have a special place in my heart. Regardless of whether they have fur or scales I treat my pets, and other’s pets as family members who need just as much love and emotional care as they do physically. Thank you for this opportunity
About: I’ve been around and taken care of plenty of dogs since I was little. I certainly have the basic skills to feed, walk, and care for dogs. Ontop of that, I can give medication orally or though shots if needed while you’re away. I have had plenty of experience dealing with dogs and all that comes along with having one. I love animals and enjoy taking care of them and all that comes along with that! I have to clean up after my own dogs and make sure their basic needs are met everyday. This is a task I am responsible of to make sure they are kept happy and healthy! I take the dogs outside to the bathroom or to play as well as giving them water daily. Our yard is fenced in and the animals can not get out. Our dogs know better than to get into things but at time stuff does happen so I make sure nothing is being messed up or chewed into etc. I would do the same for your home just as if it were mine.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Joaquin
“I was extremely nervous leaving my Pebbles with a stranger, but my nerves were an unnecessary worry: Dustin was phenomenal. He knows and is very comfortable with dogs and his dogs and other pets (ducks and cats) were all friendly and welcoming to Pebbles and she overall had a great time. In fact she peacefully slept most of the ride home without needing her motion sickness meds. She was very happy with her time with Dustin. Any time that I am in the area I will only use him. Thank you, Dustin.”


“I left my dog with Susan during the day for five days when I was visiting the coast. She was wonderful! He's a picky little guy but he loved being at Susan's house. She showered him with love and attention. Definitely recommend her.”

“Passion is extremely loving of pets! She is very thorough and understanding when taking care of my fur baby!❤️ Haven't used anyone else since joining Rover. Thank you Passion!”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Joaquin
“Kathryn was very attentive to our puppy Loki. During their walks Kathryn made sure to take pictures and keep us updated throughout their time. She is super sweet and easy to work with, we are grateful that Kathryn was able to take care of our puppy.”

About: I work with Chimpanzees at Chimp Haven! I also have two amazing cats named Bellion and Kid! In addition I also have a bearded dragon named Thor. I have had animals since I was 3 and I have been caring for animals since then. I have experience walk training dogs and I have plenty of regular training experience as well. I use to volunteer with multiple dog and cat no kill shelters where I would walk, play, and groom with both dogs and cats. I would also go to events and communicate with potential adopters for these dogs, as I did these events I would be walk training the dogs so that when they get adopted they would know! I do work a full time job from 7am-4pm every day. My evenings are completely free and I currently have Saturdays and Sundays off from work so I am free all day on those days to help train or walk pets! Since my evenings are free I can check up or even stay the night to take care of your babies! My cats and lizard are very spoiled in our home. They get fed twice a day and plenty of love and play time. I absolutely adore animals and I want to make sure your pets are taken care of while you're at work or vacation!
