About: My family has had a dog for my entire life, so I have lots of experience walking, feeding, and taking care of mid-bigger sized dogs! I am available on weekdays after work hours (2pm), and most mornings/early afternoons as well. I can also make myself available on most weekends for walks or drop-in visits! We are happy to board your dog as well - we have a fenced in yard and plenty of space for your pup to feel comfortable. I love exploring the city and would love to bring your pups with me on my daily walks! We are happy to give your pup lots of snuggles and walks. I work from home so I’ll be around all day!
“Alana and her husband are amazing as always and the best dog sitters you can find!! They are so caring, attentive & professional. We cannot thank you guys enough!!!”
“The entire family was so wonderful with our puppy! They cared for him, loved him, played with him, and integrated him into their lives for the three days he spent with them! Bandit was so happy to be loved by so many family members! We will definitely be asking them to care for Bandit any time we are in town visiting with human family! Simply cannot thank these awesome people enough!”
“Danielle took great care of my puppy. She sent lots of pics and videos and updates. My pup got plenty of play time and cuddles while we were away. She missed her doggie friends when she got home but I know she will see them again when we rebook for our next trip!”
“Lena and her family took such good care of our dog, we sent her back a week later for round 2! We will definitely go back to them again in the future. Our dog got lots of walks and park time, and we enjoyed the updates we got while we were gone. Thanks Lena!”

“I cannot provide a review for a specific dog sitter Absolutely incredible dog sitter! They went above and beyond to take care of our dear Marley while we were away. Not only did they provide excellent care and attention, but they also made sure to keep me updated with photos and messages throughout the entire stay. I felt completely at ease knowing that my pup was in such capable and loving hands. I highly recommend this family to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you for the peace of mind and exceptional service 🙏🥰”

“Zil was very responsive and has a cats deal home with lots of toys and climbing structures. She sent videos and pics daily to give me updates. She seemed to know how to get her cats and mine slowly acclimated to each other which was great socialization for my 1 yr old cat. I would use her again.”
“Sochenda took great loving care of our 12 year old Schnoodle. We were worried at first because this was his first time with Sochenda and it was for a long stay. She sent lots of photos and videos. She seemed genuinely concerned with making sure our little guy had a good experience. She messaged us with any questions and really started to get to know our boy. She found toys and balls for him to play with and he received belly rubs and lap time. She carefully followed our instructions regarding his feeding and limiting treats as he has a sensitive stomach if he gets stressed. We would not hesitate to use her again.”
“Our dog Latte had a great stay with Jiawei. Jiawei took Latte for many long walks and play time at the park. He sent lots of pics and videos every day, and was flexible for the pick up time. We would definitely recommend him!”
“Nicole is AMAZING! She was so wonderful with our pup and you can really tell that she loves and cares for animals! Nicole is super responsive and sent plenty of updates without is even asking. We absolutely recommend Nicole!”
“Brooke is our go-to puppy sitter. I always look forward to her photos/videos. It’s like a professional photographer is capturing my pup’s best moments! And my puppy always comes back to us super happy - like she’s stayed with a family member who loves her. You can really tell Brooke loves animals, I fully trust her with my dog!”
Del Mar Heights dog parents share their Rover experiences
Yaniv and his family are all such wonderful people. We left Olive with them for an extended Thanksgiving trip. We had absolutely no concerns at all and knew that Olive would be loved and cared for. Communication was great and we got daily updates. I wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Yaniv again in the future!
Viktoriia was wonderful with our lil’ Pom! 💞 She is very calm and sweet, which helped our nervous girl feel at ease in no time. We loved all the cute videos of their time together, making it much easier for us to leave her overnight knowing she was in great hands. We look forward to Angel’s next stay! 🤗
I don’t have enough great words for how great Takako treated our dog Merrill. He is a shy with anyone who isn’t us and not motivated by toys or food. Seeing his personality open up with the help of their little dog, Kinako, hang out on the couch, play with toys and enjoy his walks. Without hesitation he will stay here again on our family vacations. We cannot express our gratitude more for knowing Merrill has a place where he is happy and welcome when we are away.
Trisha is amazing 🐾 She is super communicative and took wonderful care of Cacao. I could tell he had a great time with her! She sent me daily pictures and updates, which made it easy to enjoy my trip without stressing about how he was doing. I loved the thoughtful attention she gave! Cacao was clearly happy and well cared for. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐❤️
I had never left our dog in anyone’s care since getting him 7 years ago but within minutes I felt assured and confident with him in her care. She has a true love of animals in general and particularly dogs. Angie is a gem! I did not worry at all while we were on our trip. This was a huge relief and will for sure be using her again when we travel.
