House Sitting in Allied Gardens, San Diego, CA

“This was our first time using Rover and we weren’t sure what to expect, especially when requesting service on short notice. John came over for a meet and greet, and our dogs were comfortable with him within minutes! He has an easy going, calm and gentle demeanor, which I think we can all appreciate. John came over the next morning right on time and we knew he’d take good care of our babies and our home. He kept us updated along with photos. Thank you for everything, John!”

“I was so nervous to leave my dogs as they all have anxiety or medical problems (maybe just I have the anxiety). Jaylynne followed instructions perfectly. With other sitters I always had to check in or ask for updates but Jaylynne sent me the best updates and pics throughout the day. I don’t think they even missed me. Jaylynne also left the house clean and provided me with a detailed update before leaving. Jaylynne made traveling super easy and I know my puppies had a great time with her. I recommend using Jaylynne!”

“Jinni is great! We weren’t sure how our toy poodle would handle spending time with a stranger (he can be a little shy and this was our first booking). We were so happy to see him hanging out on her lap shortly after we left! Clearly Jinni’s calm, easy energy made him feel right at home. :) Highly recommend!”

“Matt is the absolute best!! Very sweet and kind to my 13 year old black Lab. From the meet and greet I could tell Matt was very sweet to my Lola and empathetic to my anxiety of leaving my elderly pup alone. Matt was very attentive to following the list of directions for my pups eating and med routine and was so kind to send me updates each time food, meds and potty breaks happened. Matt sent tons of pics all day. Already booking Matt for my next trip. Thank you Matt you are an angel.”

“Justine took amazing care of my dog Henry. He is reactive and wary of new people but Justine took the time to make sure he was totally comfortable with her before she stayed with him. She is patient, caring, and really understands how to gain a dog’s trust. I would absolutely recommend Justine to care for your pet. She’s great!”

“Jamie stayed with Chewie for a weekend after he had surgery and he was on the mend. I had a trip planned and she was able to give him his meds and keep him comfortable in our home. She gave me regular updates and sent me pics ❤ Jamie is awesome and I will definitely have her watch him in the future!”

“Brooke was amazing! She watched my old dog as well as my cat for 3 nights at our house and they warmed up to her so quickly by the end our cat wasn’t even nervous around her when typically he can be a bit timid. She was extremely communicative and sent us updates throughout the day every single day. When we got home the house was spotless and the bed was made which are the little things that we appreciate. Took such good care of our fur babies we will definitely be using her for all our future pet sitting needs!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was eight years old, when I got my first soul pet, Mimi. She was my best friend, and I was lucky to share 19 beautiful years with her. Since then, I’ve lived with and helped raise six more dogs, including my sweet Luna, who we adopted during the pandemic. There’s nothing I love more than spending time with dogs, and it would truly be an honor to care for and bond with yours. I bring years of hands-on experience, deep affection, and a calm, responsible approach to every dog I meet! I’m a graduate student at SDSU studying public health, so I’m definitely available during the evenings and weekends, and my weekdays are often flexible. I always make time for my pups, and I’d be happy to work around your schedule to make sure your dog gets all the love and care they need. I live in a cozy apartment with my sweet 6-year-old Pomchi mix, Luna. She’s incredibly gentle, friendly, and used to being around other dogs. I have a large crate available if needed, and I treat all pets like family. Luna is allowed on the couch, but I always wash her paws after our daily walks. I keep pee pads down just in case, and there are always plenty of toys, treats, and fresh water to keep pups happy and comfortable. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all your instructions carefully. I stick to your dog’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they need. I also keep your home clean and tidy, and I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Aylene is great! she dog sat our 3 year old, bailey & 4 month old puppy, odee & was so attentive and great w/ them! she kept texting me updates and is so communicative. :) we left feeding and potty instructions since our puppy isn’t trained yet & they had no accidents! I’d highly recommend Aylene & would use her services again!!”

“Courtney was awesome!! We were out of the country for several days, with a large time difference, and Courtney was great about making sure to send cute pictures and updates each day. She was communicative and responsive, and we were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing that our cat and dog were being well cared for. 😊”

About: I have over 15 years experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up living with large breed dogs in my home and have gained experiencing caring for dogs, cats, and other critters (birds, tortoises, rabbits, ferrets, etc.) all of sizes in my community as a trusted sitter and Humane Society volunteer. I have cared for dogs young and old, puppies who required constant care and seniors with mobility support needs. I am comfortable administering oral or topical medication and bathing dogs upon request and direction. I currently live with a curious 9 year old feline named Luna and am planning for our next four legged friend. Since moving to San Diego from the Bay Area, I’ve missed daily walks with my family’s dog, a Siberian Husky Malamute mix also named Luna, and cherish each opportunity I get to bring that care, joy, structure, and stimulation to a dog’s daily life. Safety, trust, and wellness are my top priorities when engaging with your pet. It is important to me to honor each pet’s unique needs, personality, and boundaries with each meeting. I look forward to being a loving, reliable human in your pet’s life. I am currently working remotely with a flexible schedule. For Summer 2025 drop-ins and walks, I am available between 8 am and 8 pm Sun-Sun. Trust and reliability are central to my work as a sitter and caregiver. As no two pets or homes are alike, it’s important to me to understand you and your pets’ unique needs and preferences and adapt my care accordingly. I want to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe, and your home clean and comfortable. I love snapping photos to keep you updated on how your pet is doing throughout our time :)

“Jalene is awesome. She communicates well, very professional and our dog loved her. I immediately felt comfortable with her and didn’t worry about our dog once while we were on vacation. I highly recommend her for pet/house sitting”
