“Alena did an excellent job taking care of Lola. She communicated thoroughly and asked great questions to ensure Lola had received the proper care. Thank you!”

“Sandra is great with my basset hounds. They were not happy about getting their bath at first (being the spoiled children they are), but she has charmed them and now they are happy to see her!”

“We had Andrea drop in 2x daily for our 2 cats while we were away. The updates were great and we were at ease knowing they were being cared for properly. Definitely will use her services again!”

Terry K.

“Absolutely fantastic! She was so kind and loving to my fur babies and kept me updated the whole time I was gone. Also felt so much safer booking with her knowing she has a vet care background/knowledge. Would definitely book again!!!”

About: Hi, I'm Halle! I live in downtown SD with my roommate. We currently have a 20lb dog at home who I help take care of. My mom used to breed dogs so I am familiar with puppies as well. I've had all kinds of pets growing up from rodents to birds! As a small woman, I prefer small to medium sized dogs (under 50lbs) that I can physically handle in case they are leash pullers. I am happy to take care of larger dogs if they are more mellow. I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling. When housesitting, I can stay at your place for the majority of the day, but I no longer do overnight stays as I am a light sleeper and need to be in my own bed at night. Please note this before contacting me if you need overnight coverage. Every pet has different needs and personalities. I do my best to keep their routine consistent and familiar so they feel safe and calm while their family is away. I am open to accommodating whatever preferences you and your pet may have!

“Petunia took such a great care of our kitty Cece . She is communicative and reliable. Exceeded our expectations. 10/10 - will definitely use Petunia again in the future.”

About: I currently have the privilege of having two senior dogs that have been in my care for 13 years. I am aware of the patience, love and commitment it takes, having and caring for a pet that solely relies on you. I am comfortable administering medications and dealing with food modifications. I have also helped foster in the past. I am home during the day, with light serving shift 3 times a week at night. Long or short walks are available, as well as playtime, boarding and overnight care. My home is your pets home! I love my neighborhood. While I do not have direct access to a back yard, I am super close to multiple dog parks and live in a very walkable neighborhood.

About: Dogs have always gravitated toward me — friends joke that I’m a bit of a “dog whisperer.” I love getting to know every pup’s personality, energy level, and routine so they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog wants long walks, playtime, cuddles, or a calm companion, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I work in film, and currently unemployed so I have a lot of time on my hands and would love to support families and their pups. I have open availability, and weekends can be negotiated. I will create a comfy environment for the pet in their own home. Having their toys, and favorite treats. I’m only able to be with the dog in their own space as my apartment complex doesn’t allow.

About: I have a cat of my own for three years now so I am very familiar with working with animals and caring for them. I am trying to get my foot in the animal industry so I thought this would be a good opportunity to learn more about animals and care for them. I do work part time in the mornings during the week but in the afternoon and nights I have full availability and able to work around my schedule if full time hours are offered. I currently have two dogs in one cats. I have a blue Doberman, Belgium, Melany, German👽 Shepherd mix and a long hair domestic cat. The dogs have had for about seven years now. And my cat. I’ve had for about three years, so I am very familiar with caring for animals, attending to their needs.

“Christine was super nice, my cat trusted her immediately! She provided routine updates and I knew I could rely on her. Would definitely book with her again :)”

“Was excellent with my shy pup and worked hard to get her to open up and be comfortable around her. Definitely felt great with leaving my pup with Angela.”

About: Hi! I love dogs and spending time outside, so dog walking is the perfect combo for me. I’m easygoing, reliable, and comfortable with all kinds of dogs. I’ll make sure your dog gets good exercise, attention, and lots of love—and I’ll keep you updated along the way 😊 I’m available on Saturdays and Sundays to drop in or take your dog on walks. If you work on the weekends or are away for the day I can help check in on your dog 😊 Your dog’s safety and comfort come first. I follow your routine, use safe walking practices, and keep you updated so you can feel at ease.

About: Before having a dog of my own, community members would entrust me with their babies for an evening occasionally. This lasted since I was 12 until 15. I would play with them and walk them for several hours. A few years ago I met Melody, a beautiful big golden chihuahua. She was already entering old age. Still, with her small body and big bark, I adored her. She passed away and then I came into care of a husky puppy. I named her Aria in honor of her sister. She has blossomed into a beautiful big girl. Since she became mine, I learned to give much more energy into her physical activity, and I learned about her individual nutrition. Training a stubborn personality like hers has been challenging but fun. It’s taught me to be strict and authoritative so she follows me as a leader. At the same time I spoil her and shower her with lots of love and attention. 5 mile walks are no sweat for me. Currently I am a student. My schedule clears me fully 4 days of the week: Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday. Daily I walk a lot and travel all over San Diego. I do not offer pet care in my own home, however as a pet parent, I understand what to be cautious of and expect. I will take any requests and each individual environment and personality into consideration when given the opportunity to care for a pet in my client’s home.

“Darya was an excellent caretaker for our 2 cats with twice daily drop in visits. She took time to play with our babies and get them lots of pets. We could tell by the pictures she sent that both cats were very appreciative of her care. We would hire Darya again!”

About: I treat every pet like my own, giving them the same love, care and patience I give my own pup. Plus my job allows me to have an endless supply of treats and toys for every need. I currently work at a pet ret retail company headquartered in San Diego! This allows me to have a pet friendly work place and also the flexibility of working from home if needed. I have a very nice and playful mini Aussie that loves company and is always willing to go on walks or play around at home.

About: Let me tell you about my girl, what she meant to me, and how I will treat your companions because they deserve the same. I adopted my rescue dog years ago, and she became my best friend, companion, protector, and family. We shared life together. She taught me that trust comes first, that every one is different, and that patience, consistency, attention, and presence matter. When I first adopted her, I was told she didn't like affection or being held. What I learned was that she simply needed trust. Once she felt safe, she showed me who she really was. That experience taught me to pay attention, be patient, and let each one get comfortable in their own time. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, play, companionship, quiet time, and consistency. I pay attention to personality, preferences, comfort level, and the small details that help someone feel secure while their family is away. My girl recently passed away. I will not be replacing her. Instead, I decided to come here and help care for your boy or girl because they deserve the same attention, patience, respect, and care that she received throughout her life. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and routine care. I own and operate my own business and work remotely during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day. I can adjust my work around the needs of those in my care. I also drive part-time on some weekend evenings and can adjust my schedule as needed. For house sitting, I typically spend 2–4 hours of dedicated time each day focused on walks, play, care, companionship, and routine activities, in addition to the time I am present in the home while working remotely. Depending on the arrangement, I may be away for periods during the day, but I remain available for check-ins, walks, feeding, and care. My goal is simple: to provide reliable care, maintain routines, and help your boy or girl feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I own and operate my own business and work remotely during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. I can adjust my work as needed to make sure your companion receives the attention, care, walks, playtime, and companionship they need. I also drive part-time on some weekend evenings and can adjust my availability when caring for your boy or girl. For house sitting, I am generally available for short-term and extended stays ranging from a few days to four weeks. My only regularly scheduled personal commitment is on Tuesdays, though longer stays can be planned around that with advance notice. I care for companions in their own environment where they are most comfortable and familiar. I understand that trust, routine, consistency, and attention are important. I take the time to learn their schedule, habits, personality, comfort level, and any special needs so I can maintain the routines that help them feel secure. I believe trust is earned through patience, respect, and reliable care. Some want attention immediately. Others need time and space first. I pay attention to their behavior and let them get comfortable at their own pace while maintaining their wellbeing and routine.

“Aleksandra always does a great job watching over my very senior cat! She is always very responsive to messages and keeps me very updated with how things are going.”

About: Hi there! I’m new to pet sitting on Rover, but I’ve been a lifelong dog lover! I’ve had my own Pomeranian names Simba for 10 years, so I know how special our furry friends are. Right now, I’m looking for a job, so I have lots of free time to give your pup the attention they deserve! I offer dog walking and daytime at-home sitting in Downtown and nearby areas, so your dog will have a buddy all day. I’m excited to meet your pup and keep them safe, happy, and active! Requested information about your pet I just ask to let me know in advance what NOT to do/say with your pet. For example, my Pomeranian gets crazy zoomies if you say ‘who’s there?’, he rushes to my front door, spins and bark and it till he will not get absolutely tired. I would also like to know all important details about your pet friendliness with other animals and humans, their health and of course your preferred Pet Hospital. I’m currently actively looking for a remote job in Tech so I have all the time in the world to spend quality time with you fluffy friend. As I have my own pup waiting for me at home, I am looking for more standard working hours I’m not able to host pets at my home, but I’m more than happy to stay at your place for multiple hours during the day. I’ll follow all your pet’s routines, instructions, and any safety measures you have in place. Just let me know your preferences, and I’ll make sure I follow them closely!

About: I have always been an animal lover. Since I grew up I have been surrounded by pets. I will take care of your cat and dog like they are my own. I have an open schedule during day and night and weekends. We can always coordinate a convenient schedule. I am very flexible and will work upon my clients needs. I will make sure to comply with all the instructions given by the parents. If the pet has a special need or has special food I will make sure everything is well taken care off.
