Dog Walking In College Area

“Aria has watched and cared for Sierra prior to me joining rover. She has done a great job communicating with me and taking care of Sierra. This included overnights and giving her a pill each day. She has a dog of her own named Millie who gets along with Sierra.”

“Mike was great with my pup, Mac! He was accommodating and communicative, sending me many pictures and updates of their walk. Highly recommended!”

About: I helped take care of my first family dog for 10 years and I adopted a super sweet shelter dog last year. I unfortunately had to leave her at home with my parents while I attend college out here in San Diego so I am always happy for any opportunity to get some time with any furry friends. I love taking care of pets and helping them be as happy and healthy as possible! I just finished my 3rd year at SDSU studying Civil Engineering and this summer and I am going my first internship. With that, I am busy during weekdays but I am available weekends. Being around furry friend always helps me destress so I would love to house sit during the weekends! My availability lists Saturday and Sunday as I cannot do full days on Friday, but I am available after 6PM! I am able to maintain feeding and exercise schedules, make sure that there are no possible dangers to pets either in house or out and about on walks, and I just generally love spending time with animals to give them the care and engagement they need and deserve.

“Jessica is so communicative, and does a great job working with my over active but very sweet dog. Odie looks forward to her visits every week!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. My own dog is now a senior and can't enjoy the long walks and hikes we used to take together, so I'd love the opportunity to spend that time with other dogs who still enjoy those adventures. I've been caring for neighbors', family friends', and relatives' dogs since I was young, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I've also helped with puppy training and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I'm flexible, dependable, and detail-oriented. Whether your dog needs a strict routine followed closely or a customized schedule based on their individual needs, I'll make sure they receive attentive, loving care. My goal is to treat every dog like my own and give owners peace of mind while they're away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I work part-time both from home and at a local coffee shop, but my shifts are typically only about four hours long. This makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. For house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household rules. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take time to build trust and make sure they feel secure while you are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.

“Brenda was amazing! She handled my quirky dog with no problems! She’s was always on time and very communicative Will be rebooking her for sure!”

About: I've had taken care of multiple dogs from pug, beagle, and boxer all of which me and my family have taken care of since they were puppies. Currently my family has a pug, Angelo, who is 8 years old and I also take care of my cousin's beagle who is 9 years old. My cousin has trusted me with dropping in and feeding her beagle, along with feeding and playtime. I'm currently a full-time college student, who loves to be with animals and take care of them. Winding down with animals helps my mental health and with my class schedule allows me to have more time take on new challenges. For drop-ins, I would love to have a feeding schedule along with a safe environment to get to know pet and owner. Many toys and treats to play/help train pet be more comfortable in a home. In addition to helping the pet being comfortable with new people.

“Stella is awesome! She is responsible, sweet, and patient with Arlo. She arrives on time and with a positive attitude. I love that Stella takes lots of great pictures - Arlo looks like he had a blast on their walks. So glad we found her!”

About: I have grown up with dogs all my life. I have been taking care of my dog since my family got her about 13 years ago. I have also taken care of friends and families pets for a while now. I am very conscientious of their needs and can ensure they are in a safe environment. I am currently a student at San Diego State University. Other than when I have class I am free pretty much anytime to pet sit. Caring for pets at my home or in a client's home requires following specific instructions, maintaining routines, and ensuring their safety and comfort. This involves adapting care to each pet's unique needs, providing exercise, and addressing any health concerns.

About: In addition to caring for my own lovely cat and senior pup, I have pet sat for friends and family members regularly for the past 10+ years. I have experience with fur babies with a range of quirks, behaviors, and medical needs, so I am prepared for anything that comes my way. I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of time to spend caring for critters, especially during the upcoming summer break! I am very careful and safety-conscious, so you can be sure I will leave your home secure and comfortable for your pets when I visit.

About: I have two dogs of my own, a Great Dane and a Poodle mix, so I know firsthand how nerve wracking it is to hand your dog off to someone you don't know. I get it! I'm not just a sitter, I'm a dog owner who actually understands what you're trusting someone with. And as a Great Dane owner, giant breeds and big personalities are my comfort zone. No size is going to phase me! I run my own creative business, so my schedule is genuinely flexible in a way that most sitters can't offer. No 9 to 5 I'm working around. I can typically accommodate drop ins and walks at times that actually work for you, not just whatever's left in my day. I'm the dog mom who leaves a five page document for my own sitters, so trust me, no request is too silly. Special feeding routine? Weird little habit your dog has that you think "how will I explain this to the dog sitter"? I want to know. I'll follow it. And I always send photo updates so you're not just sitting there wondering how your pup is doing.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs most of my life and it is something I have grown more passionate about over the years. Family and friends have counted on me to watch after their pups and I would like to use my experiences to help out my community of pet owners. I am currently on summer break from college and would love to drop in or walk your pets for some extra cash #brokecollegestudent. I am extremely flexible with any schedule changes because the goal is to make your busy lives a bit easier. Being around dogs my entire life has given me the experience to know how to walk and interact with different types of dogs. Every dog is different but I know how important it is to keep our furry friends safe.

About: I recently graduated from New Mexico State University and moved to San Diego. I have been a pet sitter/walker for about 5 years for friends and friends of friends in my community, as well as taking care of my own for 15 years. I have one sweet chihuahua and a torti cat! I have experience walking different dogs as I volunteered for dog walking for Petsmart and Petco when they have adoptions. I am responsible, kind-hearted, and compassionate for animals. While in my care, I will always ensure the safety of your pets as if they were my own. This is currently my only job so I am able to be with your pets as often or as long as needed! I know some pets may require more attention than others and can work with their schedule. I will treat your pet just like I do mine. Plenty of attention, make sure they have food, plenty of water, and any other special things they like during the day

“We love Olivia's promptness, respect and great walks!”

About: My love for animals has always been great and that allows friends and family to trust that I can sufficiently take care of their adored animals. I’m currently in summer school, but that does not prevent me from being available any day of the week for however long. I can adapt to odd schedules with ease. I am open to working at any home or environment and able to afford the care and attention that any animal may require out of me.

About: What sets me apart is how attentive and patient I am with every pet I care for. I understand that every animal has a different personality and comfort level, so I take my time to make sure they feel safe, calm, and cared for during every visit. Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in, I treat each pet like they’re my own and make sure they get not just the basics, but genuine care, affection, and attention. Pet parents can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and consistent every time. I am currently with a lot of free time, trying to stay active and what better way to go for walks than with a dog. I’m very attentive, patient, and reliable. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for during every visit.

About: Ever since I was 8 years old, I have absolutely loved looking after my family and friends’ dogs. So much so that my parents adopted two dogs of our own! I have looked after dogs of all ages and sizes, accommodating accordingly to every dogs’ needs. As for cats, I love them too!! While I don’t have any of my own, I have taken care of cats several times. From feeding to bathing, I can do it all. I can ensure that I will look after your pet with love and respect for you. I promise to follow any instructions you set for your pet while maintaining a safe and fun time! Over the summer, I am a part-time student so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups or cats! I am available for onboarding most weeks from Friday-Sunday. I am also available for walks and house sitting during the same days. Other than those days, I am willing to discuss any day besides Friday-Sunday if my schedule permits. Within my own home, I have a fenced yard with turf. The yard isn’t too big, about enough for a potty break. When a walk is needed, we can stroll the neighborhood! Our home has AC as well as fans to keep your pets cool during the summer heat. The living room is also big enough for a medium/large crate. In your home, I feel comfortable with anything you would like me to do in order to make you and your pup/cat comfortable. I promise to care for them with the utmost attention and respect!

About: I truly enjoy getting to know animals and watching them enjoy themselves. I am farmiliar with a wide array of animal care having worked/ lived with chickens, geese, ducks, dogs, cats and reptiles. I know each pet requires unique attention and care whether that means getting active, solving puzzles, or a simple sun bath. I am eager to learn more about your pet to make sure they are comfortable and happy! I have a very flexible schedule with remote work, so I am able to accommodate most requests. I am typically available any day of the week, given I am not traveling I am very flexible, respectful, and caring when it comes to pet care. I understand that each pet and owner has a specific relationship/ living situation and I enjoy the task of adapting to help meet the needs of each pairing

About: I go beyond just walking dogs—I provide personalized care tailored to each pup’s needs. Whether it’s patience and gentle handling for senior dogs, basic training reinforcement for puppies, or extra playtime for high-energy breeds, I ensure every dog feels safe, happy, and loved. With experience in handling various temperaments and special needs, I treat every pet like family. Pet care is a big part of my weekly routine, and I make sure to dedicate plenty of time to it. I am pretty flexible during the weekend and available during most of the day during the week to provide care when needed. I prioritize reliability and flexibility, ensuring that every pet gets the love, exercise, and care they deserve At my home, I have a safe, fenced-in yard where dogs can play freely. For extra exercise, I take the dogs on walks or hikes. If a dog is crate-trained and their owner provides a crate, I know how to use it properly to ensure the dog feels comfortable and secure. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for, adjusting to their individual needs and routines.

“Always takes great care of my dog Misty. Makes sure she's feed and plays with her. Best sitter I've had.”
