About: I've been around dogs my whole life, feeding them, walking them, reading their moods, knowing when they want to play and when they just want to lie next to you. I'm calm and confident around animals of all sizes and personalities, including puppies going through the chewing and housebreaking phase. What I bring is attention. I notice when a dog is anxious, tired, or just needs a few extra minutes on a walk. I treat every dog like they're getting the same care I'd want for my own, and I keep owners updated so they're not left wondering how things are going while they're away. I'm new to Rover, but not new to animals. If you want someone who's genuinely there for your pet and not just checking a box, I'd love to help with walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays. My schedule is wide open right now, so I can work around your routine easily. I'm generally available any day from early morning through late evening, roughly 8am to 10pm, and happy to adjust as needed. All of my care happens in the client's home. My goal is to keep things as normal as possible for the pet while the owner is away, so I follow whatever routine is already in place: feeding times, walk schedule, and any specific instructions left for me. For house sitting, I stay at your home so your pet keeps their usual environment, bed, and yard instead of adjusting to somewhere new. For walks and drop-ins, I stick closely to the schedule you set and give the pet real attention during each visit. I send photo or text updates so you know how things went while you're away. If you leave specific instructions, I follow them exactly rather than improvising.

Your pet's saftey and happiness are my top priorities, and i'll keep you updated every step of the way. Let's make your pup's day together! Pet care fits seamlessly into my weekly routine alongside my part-time job. with flexible scheduling and efficient planning, I can give your pets the attention they need while balancing my work commitments. whether its a mid day walk or an evening check-in, i make sure your pets are well cared for, no matter how busy my week gets! At home, i treat every pet like family. From cozy spots for lounging to plenty of playtime and attention, I make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable and loved.

About: I’ve had Golden Retrievers my entire life and currently have two of my own, Ace and Cider :) Caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life, and I have experience with puppies through senior dogs. I understand the importance of providing plenty of exercise, attention, patience, and loving care so every dog feels happy and comfortable Pet care fits perfectly into my life right now! I recently finished playing professional basketball overseas, in Australia so I have a very flexible schedule until my next season begins. I have plenty of time to give your pet the love they need. At home, I have two Golden Retrievers with a big backyard. I regularly feed them in the mornings and nights, take them to the park for walks, and spend lots of time training them. It's so rewarding to see them grow and thrive with the care and attention they deserve! I always make sure to provide the same level of care and attention to other people's pets as I do for my own. I ensure that they are fed, given proper exercise, and of course, get all the pets and treats they deserve. It's all about making sure each furry friend feels loved and well taken care of!

About: I have had my dog Lola for almost 10 years. She is truly my best friend and soul dog. I grew up with dogs, and have cared for them my whole life. We are so lucky to have dogs, and I would be so lucky to have the chance to care for your dog! I am an artist and I make my own schedule. I can be home whenever I need to be. Your pet will get my full attentions I will always care for your pet as if they are my own. Rest assured that I will keep you updated while you are away if you would like, and will create a safe environment for your animal.

About: I have experience taking care of all kinds of animals - dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, etc - and loving every minute of it. And never fear large dog owners, I grew up and am well versed in playing with and walking dogs larger than me, so your large fur baby is in good hands. I work in the medical field doing shift work thus I have a very flexible schedule and I am happy to work around your pet care needs :) I am very adaptable and will be happy to provide whatever makes you feel like your pets are the most safe and comfortable (whether that be crating or making a comfortable bed etc).

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reliable, Caring, and Went Above & Beyond! I can’t recommend Megan enough! Not only has she been amazing with my dog, but she truly went above and beyond when I needed last-minute care while I was out of state. I was in a tough spot, and Megan stepped in without hesitation—making sure my pup was walked and well cared for while I was away. She kept me updated with messages and photos that gave me total peace of mind. It’s clear she genuinely cares and I knew Ally was in the best of hands. If you’re looking for someone dependable, flexible, and incredibly kind, Megan is the one. Five stars isn’t enough! Thank you so much, Megan!”

About: As a big time dog lover, I would love to spend some time taking care of and loving on your fur baby! I have many years of experience with dog ownership, rescue dog fostering, and dog sitting. I also have experience taking care of and training rescue dogs with reactivity or anxiety. I am currently working part-time and have significant capacity to make sure that your pet is well taken care of when you are away. Whether that be providing companionship by relaxing on the couch, or going for a nice long walk or a run at the park or beach. Having used Rover as a dog owner, I know the importance of communication! I will send regular updates with photos of your pup so you know what we are up to and don't have to think twice while you are away. Spending time with dogs is like my own personal therapy and it always makes me feel happy to have a animal friend around. I recently had a long-term foster who I miss dearly, and I would love to have some more dog time in my life. I am currently working in person on Tuesday's and Thursday's and have limited availability those days, but starting in June I will be fully remote and available. I prefer to watch the pet at my home as I have ample space and a big, fenced in backyard for them to play and go potty! I also am open to and have experience with crating dogs for night time or when being left alone if that is prefferred.

About: I have been the go to animal person for family and friends for years. I was also until recently a dog owner myself so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust! I also work from home and have a very open and flexible schedule. I love dogs of all sizes and ages! With me you will have the comfort of knowing your dog will be treated like one of the family and receive nothing but love and attention. I will take your pup on walks and to the dog park if allowed. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds but can also be crated if preferred. Since I recently lost my senior pup I’ve been missing having a furry companion around and would love to spoil and love on your pup for you! I work from home and I don’t like to leave any dog alone for longer than an hour or two and also if allowed love to take pups out and about with me too. I keep all doors closed. I take dogs out every few hours to potty. I always keep dogs leashed. I don’t let your dog interact with any other dogs on walks or in parks.

About: I love animals, especially cats and dogs. I come from a “dog family” but have had the privilege of meeting some amazing cats, and have one of my own now. I’ve had a lot of pet care experience over the years, watching many different family member’s and friend’s animals. Specifically experience with older animals, animals with high needs diets and nervous or shy animals as well. Being aware of and sensitive to dog/cat behavior is super important in providing positive pet care! I’m currently on summer break and have more free time. I work part time and enjoy a lot of hobbies, but am able to accommodate many different pet schedules. I am lucky to have a very flexible schedule and can focus primarily on pet sitting and pet care. I feel very comfortable accommodating to your needs and preferences. I am flexible and enjoy new challenges when provided them. I am happy doing whatever is best for you and your pets!

My first furry friend was a large white shepherd mix named Tyler.

I have years of experience dog sitting & cat sitting & quickly win over even the most discerning felines & nervous canines. Beyond my dog loving nature, I have extensive experience owning, training and loving dogs. I’ve volunteer trained 1 dog through Canine Companions, a program which trains assistance dogs for the disabled. I have taken multiple training classes with SFSPCA and Koru K9.

I am happy to provide longer & more active exercise for your younger dog/puppy or slower & more patient walks for your senior dog. I can administer medication if needed. I work from home so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I can offer 3/4 daily walks & can do more depending on your pet's needs. My work is flexible so your dog/cat will get plenty of attention & affection :) I am not offering boarding in my home currently but I am happy to house sit your pet in your home.

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and started helping care for family, friends, and neighbors’ pets when I was around 8 years old. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities—from shy or reactive dogs to dogs that love everyone they meet. I’ve also looked after multiple dogs at the same time and am comfortable handling different energy levels and needs. I’ve cared for cats as well, including both territorial cats and super affectionate ones. I’m comfortable giving medication to cats and dogs and am always willing to learn about the needs of other animals. I genuinely love being around animals and treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is pretty open and flexible right now. Open to: • Quick walk • Long adventure • A drop-in visit • Overnight care I can usually accommodate a variety of schedules. I care for pets in their own home so they can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and lots of love while you’re away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, habits, and needs so I can provide care that feels safe and stress-free for them.

I love giving pups the necessary walks they need whether your dog is full of energy or in their senior years of life. I have my own business that allows for flexibility during the week. I primarily work from home in the late afternoons and weekends which allows me extra time during the week for your dog. I am a caring dog lover who is attentive & dependable. I will give your fur baby a wonderful experience which may include cuddles, fetch, play time, pets and walks. If you wish to receive a text of my visit I can provide that along with a pic of the fun we are having.

My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, ensuring they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s a spirited walk for a big dog or tailored care for an older pup, I’m committed to keeping your furry friend happy and healthy! I’m currently working part time so I have a lot of flexibility. Can tailor to your needs. Available for drop in’s, walks, and overnight stays!

About: Hi, I'm Alex! I'm an Oceanside local here to make sure your furry family members are loved and cared for whether you're down the street or across the world. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight home sitting for both dogs and cats. Every visit includes a photo update so you always know your pet is happy and safe. A little about me: I've been around dogs and cats my whole life and I treat every animal in my care like my own. I require a meet & greet before every new booking. I want to know your pet's routine, quirks, and favorite spots before you leave, so the transition is stress-free for them. I'm fully insured, background checked, and committed to being the reliable, consistent person your pet looks forward to seeing. Serving Oceanside and North County San Diego. I'm available seven days a week and happy to work around whatever schedule works best for you and your pet. Morning, midday, evening, and overnight bookings are all available. Consistency matters to me - if I commit to a booking, I show up. When I'm in your home I treat it with the same respect I'd want for my own. I double-check that doors and gates are securely closed before releasing any dog, and I never walk multiple unfamiliar dogs together without prior approval from both owners. For cats I make sure windows are closed and secure before opening any doors inside the home. I always confirm feeding instructions, medication schedules, and emergency vet information before a booking begins - ideally at the meet & greet. If anything seems off with your pet's health or behavior during a visit, I contact you immediately rather than waiting. Your house key and access information are kept secure and never shared with anyone.
