House Sitting In Casa De Santiago

“So lucky to have found Kathy through Rover, she was an exceptional sitter for our two dogs. Our boys are leash reactive so we are always a little anxious to leave them under just anyone’s care, but with Kathy we’ve never felt more at ease. Great communicator and responsive, would definitely book her again if we can!”

About: Many of my friends have corgis, so I've spent plenty of time caring for these adorable, energetic little dogs and I've absolutely fallen in love with the breed! Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles on the couch, neighborhood walks, or simply having someone nearby, I'm happy to tailor care to their personality and routine. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I work full-time during the week, but I work from home on Fridays, which gives me extra flexibility for walks, check-ins, and quality time with your dog. I understand how important it is to know your pet is getting attention, exercise, and companionship while you're away. Most recently, I cared for a friend's dog and home for an entire month while they were away. During that time, I maintained the dog's normal routine, took them on daily walks, brought them to the dog park and the beach, and made sure they received plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship.

“This is our second time having Nate watch our girl. He took such great care of her and she was very content. He was a really great sport even when we had a last minute change up in the schedule.”

“Jordan was awesome with Olly. She came on short notice! Will use her again.”

About: While I have had dogs in the past (I have a soft spot for Basset hounds and Doxies), I currently do not have any pets of my own, leaving me with plenty of love to give your pets! I'm well equipped to provide lots of snuggles and mental stimulation through a variety of pet friendly activities. Your dog deserves a vacation too, so making sure they feel safe, loved, and enjoy their stay is my #1 priority. References upon request and additional questions are always welcome. As a former dog mom myself, I also know that being away from your pet can sometimes be hard on you as well. So don't worry, I will send plenty of pictures your way to make sure you can see that sweet little pooch of yours while you're gone. I currently office from my home with some local travel during the day. This allows for ample playtime and potty breaks for your sweet dog. I will do my very best to adhere to your dogs schedule and ensure their safety and comfort. If anything strange pops up, I will usually just shoot a text so that we're all on the same page.

“Katrina is so kind and thoughtful. We were so happy with how our home and pup were cared for while we were away on vacation. Katrina sent lots of photos, and is quick and easy to communicate with. We’ll be booking again!”

About: I've taken care of three cats since I was 10 and one dog for a short time. Been responsible for vet visits, bathing and feedings. I currently work till 4pm M-F so I'm looking forward to spending my afternoons interacting with your pets! Weekdays after 4pm and anytime on Saturday's and Sundays! I will follow any feeding, bathing, walking, etc. schedule provided by and in clients home. I can also help with crate or any additional trainings needed.

About: extremely observant and organized. I like to keep everything on track from medications to potty breaks. I’ve had experience over 4 years taking care of animals of family members making sure they are well fed, exercise met to their standard, and loved. Im currently working night shifts which means I have pretty much all day to stay with your pups I am able to stay on top of things and have everything scheduled for your pet. What is most important for me is keeping their routine and keeping YOUR home intact and secured. I will respect your home and boundaries you might have for me.

“Giavamna was great!”

About: I’m the friend who always gets the "can you watch my dog?" call because I’ve been around pups of all shapes and sizes since I was five. That lifetime of experience means I’m just as comfortable keeping up with a rambunctious puppy as I am providing a calm, gentle environment for a sweet senior who needs a little extra patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my active lifestyle. My days already revolve around long walks and staying moving, so your pup becomes my dedicated plus-one for every adventure. My schedule is flexible, and when I’m with your pet, they are my main priority—I treat their routine with the same care and focus I give my own. I treat your home and your pet with the same respect I’d want for my own. Whether we're hanging out at my place or yours, I focus on creating a secure, "paws-on" environment where routines are followed strictly so your pet feels safe. I’m all about clear updates and total transparency, so you can relax knowing they’re in good, experienced hands.

“Probably the best sitter we’ve had so far. Went above and beyond on everything. Provided plenty of updates and did as much as possible to make sure our dogs were happy and comfortable.”

“Dahlia is hands down the best pet sitter we've ever had. She house sat for our two dogs for a week and spoiled them rotten with walks, attention, and cuddles. She kept us updated with lots of photos and videos, and judging by the pictures, our dogs barely noticed we were gone! She went above and beyond by helping with a few household tasks we forgot about before our trip, and we came home to a spotless house and two very happy dogs. Our younger dog, Lucy, can be a handful at times, but Dahlia handled everything with patience and care. We wouldn't hesitate to book her again. She is officially our go-to sitter.”

“Ana was absolutely incredible!!! I truly cannot recommend her enough. From the moment she started watching our dog, Pixie Dixie, we knew she genuinely cared for her like family. Her communication was outstanding the entire stay. She sent constant updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Every update showed how loved and comfortable Pixie was. Ana went above and beyond with Pixie with playing with her constantly, introducing new games, cuddling with her on the couch, and even sleeping beside her because Pixie wanted to be close to her. Seeing how attached Pixie became says everything about the kind of person Ana is. She also took phenomenal care of our home. Everything was spotless, organized, and exactly as we left it. By the end of the stay, Ana no longer felt like “just” a Rover sitter — she felt like family. We trust her completely and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, communicative, and truly wonderful with animals. Pixie already misses her, and so do we!”

“Jane was fantastic with watching our reactive pup for 3 nights, and was awesome at communicating throughout the stay! She even tidied up kitchen and restroom, which was much more than we asked for. Thank you so much, Jane!”

“Thank you so much for taking good care of my little pooch dear Haley!”

About: Hello! I’m a lifelong dog lover. The corgi you see in my photo is my beloved baby of nearly 14 years, Namie. She went to woof planet this year, and I’m not ready for a new dog anytime soon. Recently, a friend asked if I could pet-sit, and I realized how therapeutic it felt for me. It also made me happy knowing they trusted me with their fur babies, especially since I have years of experience caring for my own. Before Namie came into my life, I was also a dog walker, but later transitioned into office work. Truthfully, I’ve always felt deeply connected to animals since I was a kid. I will treat your fur baby with the same level of care and attention, because I truly understand how much they mean to you. They are family, and they deserve the best. I’m currently a psychology student and am usually at school in the mornings to early afternoons, Monday through Thursday (depending on the quarter). I am fully available during the weekends. My priority has always been to return home as soon as possible to care for my dog; making sure she could go out, feel safe, and stay relaxed. I will give your fur baby that same level of care, attention, and love. When caring for your pet in your home, I understand that every fur baby needs time to feel comfortable with someone new. I always approach slowly and calmly, allowing them to get to know me at their own pace. I may use treats or their favorite toy to help build trust, but I also respect their space and wait for them to approach me when they’re ready. Once they feel comfortable, we can play, go for a walk around the neighborhood based on your preference, or simply relax together. I understand that every dog is different, some are more active, while others prefer cuddling and quiet time. In my dog’s later years, she preferred staying home, so I’m also very comfortable providing calm companionship, whether that’s relaxing together, watching TV, or engaging in gentle play like hide and seek. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.

“From the moment we met, it was clear how kind, attentive, and experienced Jared is with animals. I got regular updates, photos, and messages, which really reassured me that my dog was happy and well cared for. When I came back, my dog was relaxed and clearly had been treated with lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Jared to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”

“This our third time using Chelsea and she is nothing short of magic. We’ve trusted her in our home. We have trusted her with our most precious fur baby. She’s been kind, loving, on time, professional and someone we can call a friend. Thank you, Chelsea.”

About: I’ve always had a strong love for animals and years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel comfortable leaving their pets with someone they trust, so I focus on providing a safe, loving, and reliable environment. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic care, puppy energy, and senior dog patience. I pay close attention to each dog’s needs and personality to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of attention and affection I give every pet. I treat every dog like family and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I prioritize consistency, responsibility, and structure. I schedule my day around feeding times, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and check-ins to ensure each pet receives timely and attentive care. Whether it’s daily visits or weekly bookings, I make sure I’m fully available and present for every pet I care for. I also plan my week in advance to accommodate pet sitting requests, making sure I have enough time and flexibility to give each animal proper attention, exercise, and companionship. Caring for pets is something I genuinely enjoy, so it blends seamlessly into my routine rather than feeling like a task. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment. I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication needs, and preferred routines to ensure the pet feels comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I respect the space and keep everything clean, organized, and exactly as I found it while prioritizing the pet’s well-being and routine. In my care, pets receive plenty of attention, gentle interaction, playtime, and monitoring to ensure they are happy, safe, and stress free at all times. I also pay close attention to behavior changes and communicate updates so pet parents feel confident and reassured.

“Lauren, did a great job caring for our puppy Gunner, old grumpy dog Jack and our house while we were away. Both dogs being at very different life stages required specific needs and she cared for each wonderfully. She communicated regularly with photos and messages and left our dogs tired and happy and our house spotless. Definitely recommend Lauren to house/and or dog sit!”
