Pet Sitting City Heights East

About: Hey there! My name is Natasha and I have been an avid dog lover since I was young. My partner and I both WFH and we have a fully fenced in front and backyard for the pups to play and roam. With my 8+ years of dog care experience, it's my pleasure to make our house your dog's favorite home away from home! A little about me: My first dog was a Christmas gift when I was 16. Despite being on crutches, I learned a lot about dog training and care. Fast forward to 7 years ago, I rescued my border collie and trained her to become a service dog. We go everywhere and do (almost) everything together - including taking care of other dogs! I also now have a Foster dog, Ashe, who is very docile, gentle, and sweet. She's just happy to be here! I am also happy to watch your pet(s) at your home as my partner can take care of the gang here at home while I'm away. Whatever works best for you! Either way - your pets will be loved, mentally and physically engaged, and cared for however long you need! I work remote full-time and set my own schedule. Nyla joins me for runs, frisbee sessions at the park, hikes, and fetch 5-6 days a week. After that, it’s all cuddle puddle. We also do some training on our walks for breakfast! We go for a long walk in the morning and evening, with plenty of short breaks throughout the day - or one of the aforementioned activities! Safety is of utmost importance to me. I know many dogs have lots of ways they communicate their boundaries and I keep a close eye for any or all of them your dog may show. We have a fully fenced in front and backyard, a way to divide the two, and live in a residential neighborhood. I work with each pet to learn their comfort level and earn their trust on their terms and timetable. Nyla and our foster are both crate trained so separation is always available if need be!

“William went above and beyond caring for my dogs. I have two high energy large breed dogs, a German shepherd and a Labrador retriever. William handled them very well, my dogs love him and I can tell he really cares about them when he’s baby sitting them. He sends me pictures and communicates about their visit. He is very trustworthy, made sure my dogs were safe and comfortable and made me feel very comfortable leaving them under his care. I am very glad to have found him and will definitely be hiring him again!”

About: I’ve had both dogs and cats all my life! I have 2 years of professional experience & over 10 years of personal experience with pets of all ages. Very comfortable with anxious/disabled/senior pets who need specific care/diet/medication. I have a flexible schedule. If your pets can’t be left alone for long hours during the day, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate that! I prioritize keeping pets comfortable by following their usual routine in the place they know best. I’ll provide lots of love, playtime, walks, meals, fresh water, and any special care they need while treating your home with respect. I'll also send regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your pets are cared for while you’re away!

“Jade has been a great companion for Ace! She has been reliable and flexible with our schedule. It’s nice to get a report and pics with each visit.”

About: Hi! I’m Kate 😊 I’m a gentle and caring animal lover with about 6 years of pet care experience. I currently care for a cat and previously had a British Shorthair, so I’m familiar with different cat personalities and routines. I also have past experience caring for dogs, though I no longer have one due to moving and space limitations. I only take one pet at a time, follow each cat’s routine closely, and send regular photo updates. I’m home most of the time, so your pet will get plenty of attention. While I’m newer to Rover, I’m responsible, communicative, and truly enjoy caring for pets 🐾 I'm home almost all day with a very flexible schedule. I work from home, so I'm available for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. Your pet will rarely be left alone for more than 1–2 hours. I provide a clean, quiet, and secure apartment. Doors and windows are always closed and locked. I only take one pet at a time, so your cat will never be around unfamiliar animals. I follow all care instructions carefully and monitor your pet's behavior daily for any changes in appetite, energy, or litter box habits.

“Jazmin did a great job taking care of my cats while I was away. She communicated well and sent great photos. She also responded to additional requests promptly. I will be asking for her help in the future!”

About: Not your average dog caretaker! I am a big dog lover! I have experience walking and taking care of dogs, puppies as well as seniors, small, medium sized and with a high energy level. Walking with your dog is not just a good exercise, it is also a good opportunity to show them attention and affection. I take a trust based approach to dogs and make sure they feel safe, happy and loved when they are with me. My goal is to leave you with a happy dog and to leave your dog with a satisfied owner. Animal care is a big part of my daily routine, and I love spending time with dogs. With my flexible schedule, I can provide walks, sitting, and plenty of attention to keep them happy and safe while their owners are away. I provide personalized care, including walks, playtime, feeding, and a safe environment. My husband and I live in a pet friendly, cozy bungalow with a lot of grass areas. Whether in my home or a client’s, I follow their routine to keep pets happy and well cared for.

“Leyla was absolutely amazing! She was reliable, communicative, and flexible to our needs. We felt completely at ease knowing our pup was getting attention, care, and affection while we were away. We came home to a happy dog and would trust them again in a heartbeat!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other animals since I was a kid! Friends and family regularly trust me as their go to pet sitter when they’re out of town, and I take that responsibility seriously. I currently have one dog and three cats who love living with my roommate and me, so I’m very comfortable managing multiple pets and personalities. I stay active with regular walks and runs and would love to bring your pup along for some extra exercise and fun! I currently work full-time, but have a pretty flexible work from home schedule. On days I work from home, I am able to provide full-time dog care. Days I go into the office, I am able to provide care from 6-7 am and then after 5 pm. I provide attentive care tailored to each pet’s routine and needs. In a client’s home, I maintain the pet’s normal routine to keep them stress free. I follow all care instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, medications, and home care basics. I also provide regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing!

“Yesenia is awesome and has extensive experience with both cats and dogs. She was so patient with Axl as he is a puppy and a bit shy around people. She is responsive, has great communication during check-ins and take lots of pics. Thank you Yesenia 😃!”

About: My friends and neighbors count on me to check on and sit their animals, and I regularly walk my own pups with their neighborhood furry friends. I grew up with Rottweilers, and have embraced small dogs in recent years. I'm 6ft and 200lbs, and am comfortable with a variety of sizes of dogs. I currently have total flexibility in my schedule and am happy to help with pet care throughout the day. I'm just getting started on Rover, but I've been a dedicated pet parent for almost a decade and love the way it enriches my life. I'd be happy to extend the same level of care and understanding I give to my own pets to yours. I live with my two pups in a small condo complex, where I have an enclosed back patio and immediate access to a very walkable neighborhood. I am comfortable entering friends' homes and allowing the animals to acclimate at their own pace, and am just as happy taking pets for walks as I am keeping them company in their own homes.

About: Have you ever had a bad day with a dog or cat? Me either! Although I work in the restaurant industry, I love animals more than people and I can’t wait to meet your fur babies ;) ***New clients use my code to receive $20 off your first service: CONNIM98201*** I’ve been employed by Rover for 6 years, I am extremely reliable, highly rated, trustworthy, and a pet owner myself. Since my childhood I have owned and taken care of animals, I always care for my clients pets as if they were my own. I was raised to leave things better than how I found them and pride myself on that motto to this day. I still can’t believe how lucky I am to have this amazing job working with animals! About me: I was born here in San Diego, but I was raised in Davis, Ca (Norcal), and have lived here 10 years. I just turned 40, have a background in firefighting and am a returning student majoring in respiratory therapy. I enjoy weight training, going to the beach, traveling, and exploring this beautiful city. I have a 14 y/o siamese cat named Boots and look forward to owning a dog once I’m done with school.

“Karilou took great care of my senior, skittish dog during her drop-in visit. She even managed to get my baby comfortable enough where she asked for belly rubs. Thank you so much for the gentle love and care you showed my little girl!”

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’ve raised a 2-month-old Maltese, meeting all her needs and getting her started on a consistent training schedule. I've also cared for a Shih Tzu–Poodle mix, potty trained him, and kept him active with daily walks and fun park adventures. A gentle sheepdog in my care enjoyed decompressing strolls, dog park playdates, beach time, and even relaxing bath sessions for a spa-like experience. Beyond dogs, I lovingly care for my own chickens and geese—providing enrichment, routine wellness checks, and a nurturing environment. I also have experience with cats, offering playful engagement, cozy cuddles, and respectful attention to their unique personalities. I’m patient, kind, and deeply attentive. I care for every pet as if they were my own—because they deserve nothing less than genuine love and thoughtful care. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as a culinary student with a flexible hybrid schedule. I take online classes from home and only attend campus one time a week. My love for animals makes pet care a fulfilling and joyful part of my week, and I’m always happy to plan my schedule around giving pets the attention, exercise, and affection they need. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I prioritize creating a comfortable and familiar environment for them. I follow your pet’s routine closely—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medication—to help them feel secure and cared for in your absence. I offer drop-in visits and overnight stays, giving pets the attention and companionship they need while maintaining the rhythm of their daily life. I treat each home with respect, keeping things clean and tidy, and make sure to provide updates so you feel connected and reassured while you're away.
