Cloe saved my trip when my original sitter plans backed out days before. She’s super quick to respond and I felt really confident in her care for Odin in my home while I was away. My mind was at ease.

This was the 1st time Jona watched our 2 large dogs. He followed the instruction given to him to the T, and asked smart questions if he wasn't sure. He is 100% trustworthy and integer. A rare find. I would definitely book him again.

Raevyn was amazing with our senior dog while we went on 10 day vacation. She was timely and respectful, and always provided updates. Apple is not very friendly with strangers right away but with her she was immediately calm. Apple had a good time and we had a worry free vacation. We will definitely use her as our sitter in the future.

Velvet is amazing! I rescued a pup off the streets yesterday and had an important appointment this morning. I booked Velvet late in the evening the night before, and she shifted her schedule to help me last minute and was wonderful with communication. Even more importantly, Velvet made this sweet rescue boy (again, fresh off the streets) feel calm, comfortable, and she even got him to snuggle with her! If she's this much of an dog whisperer with a fearful stray boy, I can only imagine the incredible care a beloved pet would receive. Thank you so incredibly much, Velvet! I can't tell you how much I appreciate you!

Cannot say enough good things about Vasil. He was incredibly communicative, he was kind in his correspondence, and sent ample pictures of our dog. Came through an emergency situation and went above and beyond. I would highly recommend and will be using in the near future.

Kristina was wonderful! She made it a point to meet us and our pups in advance and sent us pictures and videos of them every day. I knew that they were being well looked after. Kristina gave me peace of mind during my vacation that a boarding facility likely wouldn’t have. The pups got to sleep in their own beds, snooze on their own pillows, and were disrupted as little as possible. Thank you, Kristina!

Andrew was great! He stayed with our Violet overnight and kept her fed and walked. She is typically a nervous pup so I was worried about leaving her with someone, but she seemed happy and content when we returned. Our internet went out the whole time Andrew was here, and he was very easygoing about it. We would definitely have him back!

This was my 1st time using Rover and was so lucky to have found Jordan. She did a pre-visit to meet my puppers and get care details. She was on time, very professional and stayed in communication all say with pictures and updates. Having her with my dog in his environment, I was able to relax knowing he was taken care of. 5 Stars, would recommend.

Kate was great with my dog. He recently went blind and, around the same time, I was scheduled to go on a work trip I couldn't miss. I was worried about it and having a dog sitter for the first time, but he couldn't have had a better experience. She sent me updates and pictures of my dog. Very grateful to have found her here.

About: I am an educator and musician who loves animals and enjoys spending time outdoors. I’ve been taking care of animals since I was a child. As an animal lover and cat owner myself, I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether it’s a dog walk, a drop-in visit, feeding, playtime, or simply providing companionship while you’re away, I take pride in treating every pet with kindness, patience, and attention. I understand that pets are cherished members of the family, and I strive to provide the same level of care and affection that I would want for my own pet. My professional background has taught me the importance of reliability, genuine care, communication, and attention to detail—qualities I bring to every pet care visit. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to arrange my schedule around my clients’ needs and provide dependable care for their pets. The safety and well-being of your pets is always my top priority. I treat every dog and cat as if they were my own and take care to follow each pet’s routine, instructions, and personality needs closely. During dog walks, I use secure leash handling at all times and remain alert to surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards. I avoid unsafe interactions with unfamiliar dogs and always prioritize calm, controlled, and positive experiences for your pet. For cat sitting and drop-in visits, I ensure doors and windows are securely closed, litter boxes are cleaned properly, food and water are refreshed, and your cat is comfortable and stress-free. I also take time to provide companionship and gentle interaction based on each cat’s comfort level. I am reliable, punctual, and communicative, and I provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. In case of any emergency, I will contact you immediately and follow any instructions you provide, including reaching out to your preferred veterinarian if needed. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and genuinely looked after while you are away.

About: If you’re looking for an attentive, experienced and loving caregiver for your furbabies, you’ve found your girl! And being a freelance photographer, I love sending clients cute pics while they’re away. I’ve not only been the friend that takes care of everyone’s pets while they’re away, but I was also a dog walker on the east coast for many years in college. I have had my kitty Kunka since 2017 and have since adopted a stray in the community that needed some love. I grew up in a very pet-loving home. We always had cats & dogs, and on some occasions, a fish tank or cage of gerbils. My mother built an outdoor turtle habitat, and would often rescue animals in the community that needed aid. When I’m not pet sitting, I am a photographer and Social Media Coordinator for local businesses. I spend my free time staying active, under trees, riding mopeds with friends, writing and playing music. Cant wait to meet your fur-family! I am a freelance photographer, so my schedule varies each week. I typically have a couple shoots on the weekends, and maybe a few during golden hour each week, but most shoots only last 1-3 hours, so I am able to balance both gigs. I also work part time in Carson at a textile firm. When caring for your fur babies, I make sure that their safety, well-being and happiness are priority. I will always read your notes and follow instructions carefully and am very self-aware! With having lengthy experience as a pet and house sitter, as well as having prior experience as a professional eco-friendly house cleaner, I am incredibly respectful and mindful when entering any client's home, and make sure not to have distractions when caring for your bb.

About: Hi ! My name is Tylani and I have a 12yo pitbull, Luna, 2yo Mastiff, Cowboy, and a 8mo Kitty, YíngYíng. I have been around animals my whole life and there’s nothing I love more ! I don’t claim to be a trainer or animal communicator, but, I have trained myself to be understanding and listening to what they want most. Maybe it’s space, sunbathing, or sometimes it’s a snack ! I want them to know I’m the one watching out for them :) so our fur babies don’t need to worry ! I currently work part-time and have open availability during the day and most nights. Whether they need a walk while you’re at work or coming home late, to schedules or last minute. I have a fenced yard and my dog loves to play or relax, depending on your dog’s needs. There is a park walking distance from me which we frequent often.

About: Since before I can remember, I have always had a passion for animals and a desire to work with them. Family friends have always trusted me with looking after their beloved pets, from dogs, to cats, and even fish! You can always count on me to provide the utmost care and love for your pet, all while having fun. I currently work a 9-5 but my availability is flexible. I hope you take the time to consider me in your search for the perfect petsitter! (: I’m currently working a 9-5, but my availability is flexible! I am available almost everyday after 5, and I’m off every weekend. I am open to house sitting the whole weekend, or partially as needed. I am very respectful of your space and would treat it as my own. I’m a neat freak and would leave it as if I was never even there.

This was our first sit with Jordan and it was great! We booked last minute but Jordan was great about doing a meet and greet with us on short notice. Petunia took easily to Jordan and my wife and I felt good knowing she was in good hands. Jordanwas great about keeping us updated throughout the day and sending pictures of Petunia. We will definitely be keeping Jordan in mind for our future pet sitting needs.

Mahima was fantastic! If I could leave more than five stars I would. She is detail oriented, and followed all my instructions perfectly. I was worried about my reactive boy. But she handled him beautifully, and is very confident in her approach. She sent many videos of daily activities, ensuring my furry friend was well taken care of. If she was unclear, she didn't hesitate to ask. She left my house immaculate. Mahima is extremely kind and respectful, and a lovely human being. I highly recommend her. Sparky and I both say THANK YOU Mahima!

Simply can't recommend Alex enough! She has been an absolute lifesaver for my boyfriend and me, helping with backup care for our dog, Mischa, who just went through TPLO surgery. From the very beginning, Alex has been incredibly attentive, kind, and reliable. Mischa (and our other animals too) warmed up to her instantly, which immediately put us at ease. Alex has gone above and beyond to make sure our pup is comfortable, safe, and happy—whether it’s administering medications, helping with mobility, or just providing extra love and cuddles during recovery. Her communication is excellent with regular check ins throughout the day, which has been a huge comfort during this stressful time. We feel so lucky to have found someone we can truly trust with our fur babies. If you’re looking for a compassionate, responsible, and loving caregiver for your dog, Alex is absolutely the one!
