“Laurie was amazing! She was very accommodating and sent photos of my fur babies while she watched them on my wedding day. She took them for walks and was very patient with them all. She was a real life saver and I would recommend her to any one in need of an amazing dog sitter. 🩷🐶”
“Laura stayed at our home for nearly a week taking care of our Frenchie. We came home to a very happy and healthy dog and a super clean house! Will definitely be booking with her again and are very grateful for her care.”
“Alex is a great sitter! She stayed at my home and sent the best pictures of my dog and cat. They clearly had a great time with her and I had no worries while I was on vacation! 🥰 Thanks Alex!”
“Michele and David were great! We booked them pretty last minute and they were willing to stay the weekend with our Lux and Link! Luxy was/is stuck in a cone right now and needed medication administered as well. They were patient with the unique needs Lux has right now and kept us updated throughout the stay. Thanks for taking care of our fur babies!”
“Josue and Joanna are both so amazing to my dog Lucy! She loves them and always gets so excited to see them! They treat her like their own and I always feel at ease when Lucy is with them! 10/10 I recommend them for your fur babies!!”
About: Hi, I’m an animal lover originally from Arizona, and I’ve been dog sitting for 5 years. If I could cuddle a tiger, I probably would! I have experience with dogs of all sizes, including seniors, and I’m comfortable giving oral medications. I love going on walks, so your pup will get plenty of exercise, attention, and cuddles. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, playtime, feeding, and plenty of cuddles. I’m happy to adjust to each pet’s routine and make sure they feel loved and cared for. Communicating and update pictures throughout the day is key for trust. I like to send an update every 2-3 hours, whether it’s just a quick picture.
About: I currently work with dogs full time, I grew up taking care of my family and friends animals while they were away. I studied animal science at URI and have experience with dogs ranging from pekingese to great pyrenees. Use code SARAHM55418 for $20 off your first booking! I’m currently in a K9 section taking care of shepherds and malinois, I go in early so my evenings and weekends are completely free to take care of your furry companions. I will treat your house respectfully and make sure your fur baby(s) get all the exercise they need and make sure they’re fed.
About: I’ve looked after neighbors dogs and family friends dogs for years. I’m knowledgeable in canine body language so I can read their comfort levels and ensure they aren’t getting overwhelmed. I am very proficient in bathing dogs, I get dogs with double coats deshed and curly coated dogs brushed out. I am currently working part time at a dog grooming facility, but I have few hours. I would have plenty of time to play or lounge with your pups depending on their needs. If your dog is low energy, I would be more than happy to just hang out and play low impact games with them. For my high energy buddies, I would be happy to (with pet parent permission) take them on a trail hike or play ball.
“I felt great having Shalaja cat sit for my two cats for the week! She was comfortable with grumpy cat behavior and kept me well updated through out the week. We would definitely have her back in the future!”
About: From reptiles to rodents and four legged creatures, I cared for multiple animals that I think I considers myself Snow White…All jokes aside I truly adore animals and have nurtured them with all my love and patience. Although I am a college student ! My availability is open to any precious creature who needs care or even some attention for pet parents who aren’t able too, I am more than happy to provide that for the pet and the owner. It all depends on the clients needs, I’m able to adjust to any changes or specific requirements. Of course, if there is any concerns for the pets safety I would be willing to make accommodations in order to ensure their safety.
About: I treat every furry friend like family. I provide care for friends of all ages, from littles to seniors, with the same love I'd give my own. I am available whenever your friends need me because my schedule is completely open. I have the flexibility to prioritize their specific routines every single day. I provide care in your home by following your specific routine and treating your friends like family. I offer walks, feeding, and plenty of love.
“Very prompt and great communication. He was able to cover an emergency situation and we were very grateful for that. The dogs loved him, especially Toto who has issues sometimes with women so that’s why we hired Doug - really nice guy.”
“Marilyn did a great job of communicating and caring for Max. She stayed overnight with him. We have moved to a new area and I decided last minute to take a quick 3 day trip. Marilyn came over to meet Max and said yes to caring for him. I’m very grateful for her handling this quickly. Max looks forward to her staying with him again soon.”
About: *Use code CAROLG31006 for $20 credit on first booking* Hello! I'm Darlene! My family and friends also call me Caroline, so feel free to use either name. I have over 7 years of hands-on pet care experience and grew up with three dogs—a Husky, Chow Chow, and Cocker Spaniel—so I’m comfortable with different breeds and temperaments. I genuinely love dogs and treat them like family. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, patience, and consistent communication. I provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work remotely and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. Your pet will never feel alone, and I can easily adjust my schedule to meet their specific needs, whether that’s extra potty breaks, exercise, or simply keeping them company and comfortable. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment with constant supervision, attention, and care. In your home, I follow all instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I ensure doors and spaces are secure and never leave pets unattended for long. I also send regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Bonsall
There aren't enough words to describe Victoria's level of care, commitment and compassion for animals! Victoria took excellent care of our dogs while we went away for a special occasion. One of our dogs has complex medical needs and required emergency medical care while we were away- a nightmare for any pet owner! Victoria was on top of it, communicating quickly and always responsive. I worried less knowing our fur babies were in good hands. She also went above and beyond to befriend both dogs and our typically fearful dogs both love and trust her thanks to her patience and amazing level of care. We truly can't thank her enough! Anyone would be lucky to have Victoria care for their animals
Victoria was amazing with my large crew! It was my first time leaving them with someone who wasn’t family and I was concerned with how they would react to someone new in their space, but she quickly won them all over - even my grumpy old Rottweiler and the anti-social cat! Thank you so much for taking such great care of them! ❤️
Victoria is truly the most amazing dog sitter we could have asked for. She took exceptional care of our five dogs, including our Great Dane, and it was immediately clear how knowledgeable, confident and loving she is with dogs of all sizes. The entire time we were away, we felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such capable and compassionate hands. When we arrived home, Victoria went above and beyond in the most thoughtful of ways- she surprised us with homemade cookies and salt dough paw prints of each of our dogs. It was such a heartfelt, unforgettable gesture! We cannot recommend Victoria highly enough! She is trustworthy, kind, attentive and truly special. Any pet family would be incredibly lucky to have her care for their pets!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bonsall walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bonsall maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bonsall choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
