My wife and I were extremely pleased with Sophia. She was flexible to schedule with, very communicative, and did a great job keeping us informed of our cat’s activities. We appreciated how good Sophia was at leaving detailed notes on her activities during each visit, and all the photos she took for us. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we need a cat sitter.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on dog care experience, including raising two Chow Chows and caring for three dogs from 2011–2019: two Labs and one Golden Retriever. I’m comfortable with large breeds, daily routines, exercise, and attentive care. I’m available for pet care after 4:00 PM on weekdays and have open availability on weekends. I’m reliable, punctual, and flexible for evening check-ins, walks, and overnight care as needed. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication in every visit. I carefully follow client instructions, maintain clean environments, secure doors and gates, and provide consistent routines to reduce stress. I treat each home and pet with respect and care.

About: I’ve spent several years caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. My experience includes daily walks, feeding routines, administering medications, and providing plenty of love and playtime. I always prioritize each pet’s comfort and safety, making sure they feel right at home even when their family is away. I am currently a full time college student, but have extra time between and after classes where I would love to be able to bring some extra animal joy into my day by helping families and their pets. I have 3 animals in my home; 2 dogs (Australian Shepherd & Toy Pomeranian) and 1 cat ( Maine Coon). I am used to energetic animals as my shepherd is a very active breed. I also am used to more chill breeds such as my Pomeranian and cat who love a good couch day!

About: Hablo español! ♡ When I was younger, my parents wouldn’t let me have a pet. I countered my desire for a furry friend by offering gratuitous services to my neighbors and friends starting 2018! I’ve worked with big and small dogs, healthy and sick. I’ve since owned two dogs of my own. My first dog was a black lab & weimaraner mix named Tiago. He grew up with an allergy to certain foods and epilepsy. I loved him as he was anyway and learned to care for him appropriately. I currently have a healthy golden retriever named Rocket back home. I am an international student from the Dominican Republic. I’m full-time, but I sure do miss my little guy and would enjoy loving on yours whenever you’d need! I’ll give your pet all the love and attention they need in their own safe space! I require a quick rundown of your pet’s medical history to make sure I am fit to serve you and your pets. ★ Sorry! Boarding is not available.

About: I have had dogs my whole life. Im now in my fifties and Have raised my kids and many pets. I resently lost my labradoodle of ten years. While I have had quite a few dogs in my life, some are perhaps more special. I had him the longest. He was so wonderful with children, He was my shadow. We do have another pup, Leo in the home with us and he is missing his brother. he is very friendly and energetic and needs a lot of play and walks, so I am on a pretty good schedule for walking and bathroom breaks. I am very good at spoiling all fur babies. I am also aware of special dietary needs and excersise plans for certain doggies. I just want to love on your dog. I have space and time in my life right now. I already take care of our dog and know how to keep to a schedule, training is important if thats what you need me to practice while you are away. I work part time hours and I work very close to home. I work part time and very close to home. I have a very flexible work schedule and often t work from home and I live a block from the beach, so I love to walk our dog Leo when he is home with me. He spends half his time with my ex husband in Arizona. I have alot of flexibility week day or weekends. I have a fenced yard. I also like to take the dogs out for a walk at least once a day. Usually in the mornings.

Megan was so understanding. I forgot to leave written directions. We did do a walk through before she came by and she remembered everything! I was impressed. I came back home and Winnie was well fed and his litter pan cleaned. He barely even missed me with Megan around. Thank you!

About: I’ve grown up with several pets including two dogs, one of which I cared for as they got old and sadly passed away. In addition to my own pets, I have been a go to house/dog sitter for a few neighbors for 5+ years. I love going on walks with doggos and staying active. I take care in being responsible and treating your pets as if they were my own :) I’m free to care before and after my school which goes from late morning to mid afternoon, then outside of my occasional one day of weekend work. I am careful to ensure the pet is well taken care of and comfortable. This might include outdoor time, food/meds, and making sure they do not feel alone at night. I’ve noticed that many dogs greatly enjoy spending as much time as possible outside. I also make sure to keep in good communication with owners and love sending little pic and videos to update.

I have experience with pets of all ages and personalities, including daily walks, playtime, feeding routines, litter box care, and giving plenty of attention and companionship. I’m currently working on my master’s at PLNU and have also been a Rover client for the past two years, so I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your pet with someone.

I treat every pet with care, attention, and respect, following their routines closely to keep them happy and comfortable. While in your home, I follow your instructions for feeding, playtime, walks, and any other needs, while making sure your space is respected and secure. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Bria is the best!! My Great Danes were instantly drawn to her energy. She is attentive, asks great questions and truly knows how to care for animals. Taking care of a puppy comes with a lot of challenges, but Bria handled everything perfectly. I trust her implicitly and would highly recommend her for any dog care needs.

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has only progressed into adulthood. I am passionate about taking care of animals and provide them with all the care that they deserve. I'm currently working remote and have the flexibility to care for pets during all hours of the day. I am also available on the weekend and more than happy to watch overnight. I will take the time to make sure everything is secure and comfortable in the clients home before leaving and provide the pup with what is recommended by the owner before they return home. If a pup is staying at my home, I will make sure they get plenty of attention and will create a safe environment for them.

About: I have loved and cared for dogs since I was very little. I am very determined to stay active, and I believe pets deserve that chance as well. Whatever your pets' need are, I can complete. I am a college Student, so I often will have to leave for class and meetings, but my nights/ mornings are relatively open, and I can always check in throughout the day because of that open schedule. I am very active and always go for walks and runs, and I like to be outside. Since that is already a part of my everyday life, it's easy to do with a furry friend! I will not be having pets at my house since I live with five other college girls, but I am very comfortable out in public and also at residence with pets.

About: I grew up with a dog and cat, and from age 4, learned horse riding and care which really taught me the importance of respect for animals. As an adult I rescued a cat that I had 4 years. I'm a Personal Assistant who had a dog trainer for a client who taught me how to carefully greet dogs and how to walk them carefully. So far I've pet sat for dogs and cats. Caring for animals is truly a joy for me :) I’m a self-employed housekeeper and organizer, which allows me to set my own schedule. This flexibility means I always have time at the beginning or end of the day to visit, play with, and walk your pets, ensuring they receive consistent attention and care. I make sure each dog enjoys a proper walk and would love to take them to dog parks or the beach when appropriate. I’m diligent about cleanup and attentive to all feeding, medication, and care instructions.

Amanda was absolutely incredible with our two cats! She went above and beyond since before day one, meeting with us and getting acquainted with our kitties and the house and every day consistently showed up and spent a solid chunk of time with them, which we were not expecting but very much appreciated! She sent tons of photos and updates, and even our shy kitty ventured out to spend some time with her! We will definitely call her first in the future ❤️
