“Savannah was excellent! I appreciated how thorough she was and how she put so much care and intention into caring for my dog, Yuki! We scheduled a meet and greet beforehand so that we could go over some details and get acclimated with each other. On the day of the walk, she followed all of the instructions and sent some cute photos from the walk. Will definitely be working with Savannah again soon!”


About: Hi There! I've had all kinds of pets for my entire life. From rambunctious sheepdogs and sensitive chihuahuas, to gentle senior cats and curious kittens. I currently share my home with Stella, an 11 year old chihuahua/terrier mix, Raymond, a 15 year old domestic short hair cat, and Oscar, a nine-month old domestic short hair kitten, so I understand the unique needs of both senior pets and energetic youngsters! Whether it’s administering medications, offering extra patience for older pets, or keeping playful pups and curious kittens engaged and enriched, I bring attentiveness, compassion, and a calm, reassuring presence to every pet I care for. I’d love to give your pet the same level of love and care I give my own! I am currently available at all times during the week to attend to your pets. My flexible schedule allows me to take the time your pets need to eat, play and have genuine interactions with humans. I always ensure that collars with identifying tags are on before walks, and will never leave an animal out of my sight while caring for them. For households with cats, I am extremely cautious opening doors to the outside so as not to have an escapee on our hands. My number one priority is the safety of your pets, and that requires vigilance and focus.

About: I have 10 plus years experience with dogs, I have 2 fur babies who always bring me joy. I have loved animals from a very young age and treat them with love, kindness and respect. With my own 2 pups I cook, clean, play, get them to their vet appointments, clean their teeth, make sure they are groomed regularly. I treat my fur babies like they are literally my children, this is the same treatment your fur babies will get from me. I am available Monday - Friday from 4pm - 8pm and weekends upon requests. Would love the opportunity to work together and build a relationship. I currently am only offering either dog walks or drop in visits. I am not able to care for pets in my home, although that can change in the future.

“Brenda is a professional and a life-saver. She took such good care of my Husky, Veda, on short notice. She is trustworthy and reliable, communicative and understanding. I trusted her to come into my home while I wasn't there, and I'll be glad to do that again.”

About: I love to spend as much as time as possible with your babies! I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. I have sat overnight with up to four large dogs and up to four cats. I have taken care of senior pets as well, having administered insulin to a diabetic senior kitty. I currently have two part-time jobs, which allow me the time and the freedom to pet sit. I can pop over between jobs or before and after my short shifts. I rarely work doubles, and if I do, I would not commit to pet sit. I make sure to keep a very strong eye on small animals when they are outside in any capacity as this is coyote country. I tend not to let cats out at all, unless given specific permission. Your pet's safety is my highest priority.

About: What sets me apart is my experience with a wide range of breeds, certification in dog grooming, and knowledge in handling puppies, seniors, and special needs pets. I provide patient, loving, and personalized care with a deep understanding of behavior and safety. Your pet isn’t just watched—they’re truly cared for like family. Pet care is the heart of my daily routine. I structure my day around walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, making sure each pet gets focused, loving attention. Whether it’s early morning cuddles or evening strolls, caring for animals is not just part of my schedule it’s my lifestyle and passion. In my client’s home, I follow their pet’s routine closely providing fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I respect each home and keep pets calm, safe, and happy in their familiar space. I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

About: I've walked dogs for the last year and would love to take care of yours :) I have experience walking large dogs for an hour everyday. I will treat your pet as if they were my own by always prioritizing their safety & well-being. I am currently working nights so I can walk your pet Sunday-Wednesday in the morning until 1:00 pm and Thursday-Saturday anytime before 5:00 pm. I walk everyday on my own & would love to take care of your pet. I have experience walking all sizes of dogs as I used to have a pitbull and lab myself. I will treat your pet as if they were my own!

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 28 years of experience caring for a wide range of pets—dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, and small mammals. My fiancé Devereaux and I have been pet sitting together for nearly 9 years, and we approach every booking as a team. That means more love, more attention, and more eyes on your furry, feathered, or scaly family members! We treat every pet as if they were our own, creating a calm and caring environment while you're away. Our schedules can be a bit busy at times, so it's ideal if your pet is comfortable being independent for longer stretches. That said, we always provide regular updates and plenty of cute photos so you never feel too far from your beloved companion. We can't wait to meet your pet and give them all the care and affection they deserve! Our daytime availability is expanding as I shift away from retail work, but we still recommend that your pet be comfortable being alone for moderate stretches of time. In your home, I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions—to help them feel comfortable and secure in their own space. I treat your home with care and provide regular updates so you can relax while you're away.

About: Hello! I am a huge dog lover and enjoy going on daily walks! I have a yellow lab named Yanky who is now 10 years old. He is the most sweetest and chillest doggy who loves his daily walks. I love dog sitting for family and friends and treat all pets like my own! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I can set up my day to easily accommodate you and your pups needs! Any day or time. I always make sure my pets are in a safe and clean environment, and comfortable. When walking, I ensure they remain on a leash at all times and always stay vigilant to the area for any other dogs or animals that we might come across. My priority is to keep all pets safe and as happy as possible!

About: I’ve been a dog walker and pet sitter for some friends and clients over the years, and I love dogs! But don’t have one of my own so I have decided to go pro! Hehe. I love walking and hiking if your dog needs exercise, plus I just enjoy giving snuggles and scratches. Happy to reinforce any training you’re doing with your pups- or just come over and play with them. I’m available for dog walks every day before 11:30 and cat/dog/etc sitting can be fit into my schedule as needed, am/pm since I am self employed. Im a massage therapist & work in mission valley, so it’s very central and I can block time as needed to go visit and care for your pets or walk your dogs. My 17 year old tabby is in/out cat- and I have a small fenced in yard, my attached neighbor has two smaller dogs and a fenced in yard if you’d like your pup to have playmates. I feed my animals twice a day and give lots of verbal affirmation and physical affection, if they like cuddles we’re gonna be friends.

About: Your best friend will feel right at home at my place. My husband and I work from home and enjoy the company of “part time pets.” I love taking long walks with them, or just hanging out in the couch if they’re low energy. I am an early bird and dogs give me the best reason to start my day with a morning walk. I also enjoy the fact that having a pet at home makes me a homebody. Once a week I may go out on a date with my husband, so I really appreciate it when pets are okay by themselves for 2-3 hours. I am currently not boarding dogs for more than 7 days. I have a fenced front yard now! I walk pets regularly and will also play fetch in front yard. If you prefer that I don’t walk them, please let me know. It would also be helpful to know if your pet lunges after things during walks.


About: Hello! I have been sitting for Rover.com for over 9 years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. I'm a professional self-employed Art Director and an Award-Winning Visionary Artist, who lives and works from home. I am a digital nomad and am currently living in San Diego. I also currently offer my services in Palm Springs. When I care for your dogs and house sit, my partner takes care of our two dogs at his home, so I can be 100% focused on your dog(s). I am allergic to cats, so unfortunately I cannot offer care services for felines. I have also written and photo-illustrated a children's book titled, "Roshi and the Amazing Fireflies", that features a dear friend's dog - a sweet little papihuahua that used to be a big part of my life. I love dogs and care deeply about them and their well-being. I will take great care of yours like he or she is my own. I am very attentive and intuitive with animals (and people). When caring for your dogs in your home, I will also take great care of your home as if it were mine. I am very conscientious when I am a guest in other people's homes. For house-sitting, I am able to take care of small to medium-sized dogs, however for boarding in my home due to the limited size of my motorhome, I am only able to take care of smaller dogs. I look forward to caring for your doggie loved one and meeting you. Thanks, Carolyn * Please note: I appreciate all requests, but can only consider requests that are made at least 3 days in advance. Thanks! Since I am self-employed, I have an extremely flexible schedule so I can typically work around your schedule as well as your dogs schedule during the stay. I tend to have a calming effect on most dogs and there is typically no drama during a stay. When house sitting, I am a very conscientious guest and caretaker and will take great care of your home, your dog and your belongings. I am quiet and happy to be alone with your fur baby in your home when you are away.
