“Coco was happy, safe and well taken care of at Bradley's house for 5 nights while we attended wedding celebrations in Santa Barbara. Bradley greeted us as we dropped off Coco; he was warm, friendly and kind to Coco; and we received photos of her regularly. Coco had a chance to hang out with other gentle dogs -- she went for walks and enjoyed sniffing around the grassy lawn. Bradley greeted us when we picked her up at the end of her stay. We would feel very happy to leave Coco with Bradley again if the opportunity arose. Thank you!!”

“Jeanine was very willing to have a pre-stay meet up to introduce our dogs and give my dog the opportunity check out her place. She sent an update and photo of Shiloh's stay even though I didn't specifically request one. My dog's stay was just for one night, but I could tell she felt right at home and had a great time. ”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved taking care of them. I have a dog of my own and have helped care for pets of all kinds, from neighborhood pups to family cats. I’ve participated in dog training classes, I’m certified in animal CPR, and I’m currently a pre-veterinarian major studying biology. So this isn’t just something I enjoy, I’m truly passionate about it. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a walk, a check-in, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! As a college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have lots of time during the week and weekends to hang out with your pets. Walks, check-ins, playtime, I’d be so excited to do any of these with your furry friends. I love being outside and active, so spending time with animals is honestly the best part of my routine. I’m super mindful about keeping pets safe and comfortable, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I always follow care instructions closely, and I’m trained in animal CPR, so I’m prepared for emergencies (just in case!). I’ve also taken pet training classes, so I know how to read behavior and respond calmly if a pup gets nervous or overly excited. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure and happy, and to leave you feeling totally at ease, too.

About: I have passion for life as well as for the animals. They should be treat with love and care. I believe that a healthy dog is a happy dog and a happy dog are those ones that exercise, go for walks and run in the nature and feel the love from their care takers. I worked at a ranch for 15 years and took care of dogs, cats, chincillas, bunnies, horses, goats, chickens. I appreciate every moment with animals and nature it is the perfect combination. I wish I can help you to take good care of your pet I understand how important for you is to find a trustful person to take care of your best friend and I can garantee this person is me. Thank you for your consideration.

About: I have dog sat for friends and family for years. This past year I started walking dog part time on apps and have absolutely loved it. I work remotely so have flexibility in my schedule for walks before, during, or after the work day. I love animals and used to foster puppies from a local animal shelter. Naturally I am a very loving & caring person who adores time spent with animals. I work remotely from home and can watch pets most days with my schedule. Happy to dog sit if you are going out of town or set up regular weekly walks. I love pets as if they were my own. Ensure they are comfortable and confirm with owner if any allergies or triggers I should be aware of.

About: I’ve always had such a huge love for animals and have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities! I have experience with dog walking, feeding, playtime, and overnight pet sitting. One of the hardest parts about moving away for college has been leaving my dog back home. I miss being around my own dog so much, so spending time with other dogs genuinely makes me so happy! I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m also super big on communication and love sending cute pictures and updates throughout the day so owners can feel reassured that their pets are in great hands! 🐾💕 As a college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule that allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine! I’m great at managing my time and balancing school, work, and other responsibilities. I love staying active, going on walks, and spending time outdoors, so pet care fits perfectly into my lifestyle! I have availability throughout the week and on weekends depending on my class and work schedule. I’m always happy to work with owners to find times that fit their pets’ needs and make sure they receive plenty of love, exercise, and attention! As a college student living with roommates, I prefer to care for pets in their own homes rather than mine because I want to make sure every pet has the safest, most comfortable, and stress-free experience possible! I believe pets feel happiest in their own familiar environment, surrounded by their favorite toys, beds, and routines. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to follow their normal schedule, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions their owners provide. I’m extremely responsible, respectful of others’ homes, and always prioritize each pet’s safety and well-being

Jorrit and family took excellent care of our sweet Nola. We were first time users of Rover and his family completely put us at ease. Their home was comfortable and warm, and Nola appeared to feel at ease right away. They took their time introducing Nola to their dog, but through check ins, they assured me the dogs were getting along great. Our first experience using Rover was positive and we will definitely use it again! Thank you Jorrit, Sonia, JJ and their girls.

Sandra was wonderful to work with and she took great care of our dog Darby! From the start when she offered to do a meet and greet and through his 5 day stay while we went back east for a funeral, she followed instructions, met his needs and was always sweet to him. We appreciated how communicative she was during the whole process and Darby came home energized and obedient because she walked him regularly. We will use Sandra again...and again!
