“First time Rover user, first time pet owner. I was very apprehensive about leaving my kitten with a stranger, but with travel plans already booked, I joined Rover and searched for a sitter. Though Madeline did not have a ton of reviews, her rate was extremely competitive and the reviews she did have, were very positive. So I jumped into the deep end and am very glad I went with Madeline. She lived fairly close by so it was easy to do a meet/greet and drop off my keys with her. She was very personable and my kitten warmed up to her very quickly at the meet/greet. She followed through on all her commitments, showing up on time and providing exceptional care to my kitten. She provided daily updates along with pictures. When my travel plans changed, Madeline was right there to assist us with Stoner's care. I would highly, highly recommend Madeline to take care of your loved one while you are away. I plan on using her again in the very near future and I am glad to have found someone I can rely on to care for my kitten. THANK YOU so much Madeline!!!!”

“Chunli was wonderful with our dog Luna! She stuck to her schedule perfectly. We have a document of various information to help with dog care, Chunli followed every detail and asked any questions she was unsure of. She communicated with us clearly about her schedule and provided photos and updates on Luna.”

“Jordan was absolutely the best! She was communicative and sent a lot of great photos of Charlie and Hudson. We knew they were having a wonderful time and in very good care with Jordan. We will definitely book Jordan as again for our next trips.”


“I can’t sing Michelle‘s praises enough. We were going abroad for about a week and had another sitter cancel at the last minute. Michelle followed up quickly, scheduled a meet and greet and agreed to sit our four pets while we were away. She is awesome. They warmed up to her so quickly, and she was communicative through both text and photos. We hope we can work again with you in the future, Michelle!”

“I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Louie! She was so sweet, super communicative, and kept me updated the whole time. You can tell she really cares Louie was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend! :) 💗”

“Eliza was amazing with Hamachi. We recently adopted him and he has some separation anxiety. We wanted to go to a concert and it was our first time leaving him with a sitter. From the moment Eliza sat with him, he seemed at ease. Eliza is very personable, easy going, and caring. We enjoyed our date night knowing Hamachi was in good hands. We were running a little late coming home and Eliza stayed with him until we got back and was very flexible about it.”

“This was my first time leaving my doggy for a long trip and I am so thankful I hired Stephanie!! She was amazing in all ways- she kept my worries at ease with constant communication, photos, and attentiveness to all my concerns and notes for my dog. I felt that she really bonded with my pup and treated her as if she were her own with tons of love. My dog was so thrilled with her. She also left my place spotless clean. I would hire her back in a second and recommend her to anyone !”

“Thank you so much Luis!!! You really took care of our baby Hobbs while we explored Europe. We got daily and nightly update pictures of Hobbs and he got plenty and cuddles and walks/play time with him. We couldn’t have felt more comfortable with Hobbs staying with Luis. He was super attentive, very thoughtful and always so sweet to our Hobbs. We will always go to Luis as our first option to watch him, thank you again for such a wonderful experience❤️❤️❤️”

About: What sets me apart is how much care and attention I give to each pet as an individual. I take the time to learn their age, personality, and daily routine so they feel comfortable and at ease. I have experience with puppies and enjoy helping reinforce basic training like house routines, leash manners, and positive reinforcement. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and truly love making sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I also make it a priority to keep owners updated with photos and messages, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. 🐾 I usually wake up around 5am to take the dogs out for their morning walks and that lasts about 30-60 minutes. Since I work from home most days, I sometimes take them for an afternoon walk if they are feeling very energetic. We have a little play ground we let them go to bring out their zoomies before coming back in. Around 4-5pm, we always go to the park close to our neighborhood to let our furry friends play with each other and socialize! In the days it rainy, we usually take a longer walk around the neighborhood. I care for pets by prioritizing their safety, routine, and overall well-being, whether they are in my home or a client’s home. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, portion sizes, medication administration, exercise needs, and any behavioral or medical considerations. I ensure pets have a clean, comfortable environment, fresh water at all times, and appropriate physical and mental stimulation.
“I had to leave town & I needed a schedule a sitter at the last minute Campbell came through for me. She is a very nice young lady & my boys loved her! She did a great job, I highly recommend Campbell!”

“This was our first time leaving our fairly energetic Westin terrier/poodle mix, Mila with someone other than a family member. Kaylan did a wonderful job, sending multiple pictures every day of their outings. In a week they were at Fiesta island 3 or 4 times, which requires a bath after each visit due to Mila’s digging, rolling in the sand and dirt, etc. Kaylan also took her to the dog park, restaurants and many neighborhood walks. We wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”

“Bob provided house/dog sitting for our labrador for 10 days. He sent multiple updates daily with photos and videos. They took frequent walks and our dog seemed very relaxed and content with Bob. Our house and yard were also in great shape when we returned. We will definitely book Bob and Ting again!”

“A wonderful and kind girl. Trustworthy above & beyond cat person. She stayed in touch multiple times a day and made the time pass for Bowie as if I had never left. My car has never been so at peace in my absence & I am so happy I found my new Catsitter.”

About: From walking my first childhood dog at 6 to caring for loved ones' dogs throughout my teens, I knew I loved pet care! I specialize in stubborn and/or hyperactive pups! I have walked dogs of all sizes and love getting to know each of their personalities. I am also an experienced photographer and would love to capture some frameable shots of your dog during a drop-in or walk! I have lived in San Diego for about 14 years now, so I am knowledgeable about all the best dog-walking trails/routes, especially in the Del Mar area! I can't wait to meet you and your pup :) I just graduated from UCLA and moved back home to San Diego, so I have a lot of newfound time on my hands! I am available throughout the day on weekdays and have no problems walking early in the morning or later at night. I recognize that all pets have different needs, wants, and personalities that warrant hyper-individualized care. I make specified folders for each dog I care for that list preferences, dos/dont's, and any other important information.

“Julie was very sweet, communicative, and followed every request. She sent lots of updates/photos and my animals warmed right up to her! She left my place spotless and would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter!”

“Eli took great care of Kona and our house while we were away. He was very responsive before our trip, and sent great updates while he was staying with Kona. We look forward to him dog and house sitting for us again soon.”

“Sam is absolutely amazing! She cared for my dog Spaghetti like he was her own, and when I came back, he didn’t even want to leave her. He was happily exhausted and clearly so loved. I couldn’t recommend her more!”

“Manuela was wonderful. She was on time, kind, made our dog feel comfortable, took him on multiple walks and made sure he had all he needed to feel safe and happy while we were away. I would definitely recommend Manuela! Thank you for taking such great care of our dog!”

“Lesley was great and very professional. We had no problem leaving her to watch our dog and were able to enjoy our night out knowing our girl was safe and well taken care if. We will definitely book Lesley again!”

Eliza was a great sitter for our two Pomeranians! We appreciated her daily communication, including sharing pics of the pups, and she took excellent care of our home as well. The pups loved her! We will definitely book with her again and would recommend her to other pet parents.

Min was incredible! We had never used Rover before, but chose Min because of his excellent reviews and large number of repeat customers. And he did not disappoint! He took excellent care of our dog Taz while we were out of town and sent frequent updates (and pictures!). Taz had a blast! We highly recommend Min to anyone, and we 100% plan to use him again!

Reshini is awesome! We can’t wait to have her back to dog-sit again. She took such amazing care of our sweet pup and our home while we were away. Her communication was wonderful, and getting regular pictures and updates gave us so much peace of mind and made our trip much less stressful. We highly recommend her! 🐾❤️

Our dogs love Yelena - and we do as well! We know the dogs are in good hands, because they get so excited when they see her, and we know they are well taken care of. She is so thorough, conscientious, and responsible - we do not worry at all when she is our pet sitter. Thank you again, Yelena!

Karen was a great dog sitter for our new puppy. She immediately understood our concerns and reassured us with her calm, caring and professional demeanor. During the evening she sent photos and text updates. Birdie clearly liked being with her and trusted her. We would book her again and recommend her to others.

Lizbeth was amazing! She really went above and beyond for my cat and she took such great care of him, was super responsive, and sent me the cutest photos and videos every day. It was his first birthday while she was taking care of him and she even got him a birthday hat and bandana and sent me the best photos ever, genuinely could not recommend anyone more!

Yaxsarie has been the best caretaker to our one year old German shepherd. Our dog is adopted and has separation anxiety from previous trauma. We asked Yaxsarie to watch our dog on very short notice and she was immediately responsive and fully available to help, filling in every need we had. Her warm demeanor made my dog feel comfortable immediately and she put our minds at ease. She has watched our dog in our home and is respectful, clean and tidy. I would highly recommend Yaxsarie and am so grateful for her professional care of our dog.

Sandra was absolutely incredible during our recent overnight trip. From the moment we got home, I could tell the boys were beyond happy — relaxed, loved, and completely themselves. And somehow, her sweet pup Koko and my dogs are now officially best friends. She took care of everything so seamlessly it felt like she had always been part of our routine. I came home after a long work trip to a spotless house, clean sheets and towels, and very content pups. I was honestly in heaven. The boys are definitely missing Sandra and Koko today. 💛 If you’re lucky enough to book her, you’ll understand exactly how we feel. She gets off-the-charts stars from me — huge thank you, Sandra! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
