“Can’t say enough about how wonderful Richard is! He helped me in a short notice pinch and was so kind. He took amazing care of my Maia, every picture and video showed her so happy with her tail wagging like crazy. He walked her often and loved on her like she was his own. If that wasn’t awesome enough he came to the rescue again when my flight was extremely delayed and kept Maia for an extra night. Richard is an excellent communicator with frequent updates so I was able to enjoy my holidays stress free. He has a heart of gold and I will definitely use him again. Your pet couldn’t be in better hands with Richard!”
“Maria was amazing! She kept me updated throughout the day, and her communication gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was doing well. He is on a strict diet and takes medication, and she handled both without any issues. It was clear she genuinely cared for him, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him in her care. I will definitely be using Maria again and highly recommend her! Maria fue increible. Me mantuvo informada durante todo el dia, y su comunicacion me dio mucha tranquilidad al saber que mi perrito estaba bien. El tiene una dieta estricta y toma medicina, y ella pudo darle todo sin ningun problema. Se noto que realmente se preocupo por el, y me senti muy comoda dejandolo en su cuidado. Sin duda volvere a contratar a Maria y la recomiendo totalmente.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 14. I love all animals and have experience with all breeds, ages, and temperaments. I have 5 dogs at home so I’m used to chaos! I also started working with farm animals when I was 12 so I have experience working with horses, cows, pigs, chickens, and ect. I currently work only two days at my church, so I have plenty of time to play with all the dogs and cats! I will make sure to communicate with you when those times are and if I leave during the day. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run around in. All of my dogs are crate-trained, and they go up at night. During the day I leave them outside or they lounge around inside. All my dogs are allowed on the furniture.

I have free time on my hands at the moment so my schedule is really open to going in the morning, going in the afternoon, and going in the evening times before bedtime. I do not offer boarding in my own home, so being in the client's home I would be sure to introduce myself to the dogs, be outside while dogs are playing, and always attentive as to where an animal is within the house or backyard.
“Alexandra is exactly what we needed! This was only my second time using Rover and I accidentally sent her to the wrong address(over 30 min away) 🤦🏻♀️ however she was so kind to go to our new address and take care of our babies! I could give her 5 stars on that alone, but she was so great at checking in even on our extra shy cat who hides from everyone. She even got her to come out!!! She cleaned the litter boxes more than we anticipated and was overall amazing! If you’re a beginner using Rover, Alexandra will provide all the comfort you need.”
“Lindsey did a great job. Our cats are picky with people and they each have their own medication they have to take. The cats allowed her to give them their medication and actually remembered her from the first time she was there. Thank you Lindsey!!”

“What truly sets Caitlin apart is the genuine affection and care she and her son showered upon our furry friend. It was heartwarming to see how quickly our dog formed a bond with them. Their genuine love for animals was evident in the way they interacted with our dog, providing him not only with physical care but also with emotional support. The updates and photos we received during his stay were not just reassuring but also a testament to the joy and happiness he experienced every day. Perhaps the most telling sign of a positive experience was our dog's excitement every time we dropped him off. His tail would wag furiously, and he would eagerly bound towards our dog sitter and her son, a clear indication of the warm and welcoming environment they created. This level of enthusiasm speaks volumes about the genuine affection and attention our dog received in their care. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found such a dedicated and loving dog sitter. The flexibility she offered, coupled with the evident passion for animals, created an environment where our dog felt at home.”

I prefer to housesit instead of drop-ins. Typically, with housesitting, your pets are more comfortable! I am a graduate student and work part-time; therefore, I can fit your perfect fur babies into my schedule at any time. I have open availability and would love the chance to get some animal snuggles in. Safety is my top priority! I will carefully follow your instructions and will diligently ensure your baby is safe while in my care. This is a promise!
About: I’ve taken of many dogs since I was younger I even had my very own l. You can rely on me to care for your pet as if he or she is my own My schedule is very flexible so I would be able to care for your furry animal any time and would love to be your dog sitter if needed I would love to keep your furry animal comfortable so if you would like to bring you animals or snacks for your baby you can 😊
About: I have owned dogs all my life, little ones to large dogs. I enjoy what dogs have to offer us humans and their own unique personalities. I will walk your dog, take them to the dog park or just come and hang out with them so they are not alone all day. I know how some dogs have issues with separation anxiety and I would like to help with that. I want their humans to feel more at ease while their away at work or vacation. Resorts can be stressful for some fur babies. I have experience working in veterinary clinics and pet resorts. I am able to give meds to the pet if needed. I'm available any time during the day and most weekends. If you have questions, please feel free to email me or call! Currently working full time but that doesn’t take away from taking care of your fur babies. I am able to drop in visits or in house sitting. I would prefer staying at the clients home. It is less stressful on the pet. I have a full house so may be uncomfortable for them.
About: Aside from growing up with dogs in the house, I am an experienced dog owner and U.S. Navy veteran with a strong understanding of structure, reliability, and attentive care. I own a Belgian Malinois, so I’m especially comfortable handling high-energy and working breeds that need exercise, consistency, and engagement. I provide a safe, active, and calm environment with plenty of walks, playtime, and personalized attention so your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as a Belgian Malinois owner. My days are structured around exercise, walks, playtime, training, and making sure dogs feel safe, comfortable, and engaged. I genuinely enjoy being active with dogs and giving them consistent attention. Caring for dogs naturally fits into my schedule and lifestyle especially during the summer months while not in school. -When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their routines and follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications if needed, and maintaining a familiar environment to reduce stress. I treat every pet like family and focus on making them feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owner is away. -When on walks, I prioritize safety, structure, and positive engagement. I pay close attention to each dog’s behavior, energy level, and comfort while keeping walks controlled and enjoyable. I avoid unsafe situations, stay aware of surroundings, and make sure dogs get both physical exercise and mental stimulation while feeling secure and cared for.

About: I have grown up with pets of all kinds. It wasn’t a farm but felt like it. From dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigs and a rabbit, I have had them all. I grew up in the country, lived in the city for 6 years, and now back to the country. Between my husband and I, we have 6 kids and 3 dogs. The kids are grown so I have more than enough time and love for your pets. I know how stressful it can be to leave you animals even for a few days. I want someone that will love them and treat them like their own. Let me be that peace of mind for you. I currently do DoorDash during the day, so I am available anytime to visit your pets. Whatever you need from potty breaks to belly rubs. I would need to know any medications or special care for your pets. I’m available to feed, play, let your pets out when needed. We can go for walks or just stay in.
About: Hello! I I live in Sunset with my husband and baby. I currently have one golden retriever (Clarke) and a leopard gecko (Pico Degallo). I am a nurse that works 12 hour shifts, however, I am off work a lot of days, and can be home whenever needed! My husband grew up on a farm and is very familiar with cattle, goats, horses, dogs, and cats. I have had fish, turtles, cats, a jumping spider, a snake, dogs, hamsters, and even a fruit bat in the past! I would love to watch your house and/or animals. If I am unavailable, my husband would love to watch then if able! If staying at the house, my husband can be there as often as needed, as he works remotely. I work mostly on weekends, but I will be there daily. I can also make visits before and after work. I am off more days than I work. I can even take the animals out every 2 hours as needed, and have experience with puppies. I don't mind dogs that aren't outside potty trained or senior dogs that have incontinence, and will clean up any messes right away! I will follow all house rules, and do not mind indoor or outdoor cameras.
“Leslie is the BEST dog sitter I have ever used for my Rottie! Not many people can manage a 100lb Rottie but her and her sweet Sasha (husky) were extremely easy to get along with and she sent pics the entire stay!!! She also allowed me to extend the stay an extra day with no problem! If you want to leave your family members with someone you can trust call Leslie! I will definitely book with her again!”
