House Sitting In Diamond Heights

“Kimberly is awesome! She’s friendly and outgoing yet professional. We felt comfortable with her from the moment we met her and confident that she would take care of our puppy in the manner of which we were accustomed. Don’t hesitate to give her a call. We will be doing so whenever we’re in town. :)”

“Satine did a great job taking care of Percy during some crazy rainy weather here. He had a nice time, the house was clean when I came home, five stars.”

“The kitties were very calm when we returned, and we assume this is because they had great company in Cameron. Cameron stayed overnight for the weekend and we'd do it again!”

“Raquel checks all the boxes! Great communication, positive and warm, and, most importantly, our pup had a great time with her as we could see from the photos and videos she sent.”

Connie J.

“Jess was so wonderful! Jess was sweet, communicative, professional, and followed the instructions we left for our pup really well. Would definitely recommend booking with Jess and we’re excited for her to watch our pup again :)”

“Joe dog sat with us for 4 days at our home. We met him up earlier to make sure he and Nala were a good fit. Throughout our trip, he was kind, reliable, and responsive. We are so happy to have had him. Nala did great with him!”

“Alex was awesome! Great communication throughout my trip, followed instructions super well, handled my very picky eater Mixie with lots of patience and care, and left my apartment in a great state for when I returned. Would definitively recommend!”

“Muhammad watched our cat over a long weekend and it was clear the two of them had a wonderful time! He sent us lots of pictures and videos, which were really nice. I’ll definitely rebook in the future!”

“Jeremy was amazing! Titan was feeling extremely shy and anxious and Jeremy was able to get Titan into such a relaxed state for the week we were gone. Titan had a great time and we can't wait to book again in the future”

“Nicole is personable, efficient, and won over my cat, who is not the lap cat type. Whenever Lulu needs to be watched in the future, Nicole will be my top choice. Thanks, Nicole!”

About: I have babysat: 1) a medium sized 50 lb hound mix dog for a month at a time every year for 13 years (over the course of its life time from when she was a puppy to death) whose personality was very energetic and anxious. It needed a lot of exercise everyday, stimulated play, and long walks which I happily enjoyed! But she also needed to be watched carefully to ensure she didn’t scare anybody by playfully jumping on them. She would tug a lot during walks and would get excited seeing other dogs but I’ve always managed to calmly steer her away if aggression showed or if the other person or dog she was meeting showed signs of being uncomfortable. This dog always stayed at my place when I babysat her. Made sure she was fed on time twice a day and provided fresh water everyday. 2) two cats at a month at a time for the past 4 years. Stayed at the owner’s place every time. Had to be fed at certain times twice a day, gave them treats throughout the day and attention whenever they requested it. Sometimes I would initiate the contact but if the cats weren’t feeling it, they would communicate it and I would stop. They were indoor cats so I also made sure that any windows that were open were secure and they couldn’t slip through. Had no issues of escaped cats. 3) an energetic 8 year old pomsky and an 18 yr old cat for 10 days. House-sat the owner’s place the entire time where I had to walk the dog 4 times every day at a set schedule and feed them both & provide medication to the cat at set times. The Pomsky was very energetic so also took the time during the afternoon to play with her when she had the zoomies. And have the cat tummy rubs and butt scratches whenever she requested it. 4) a large 50 lb, 2 year old, Old English Sheepdog (named Cura). House-sat & dog-sat Cura for 10 days in Los Angeles, CA. Highly energetic who needed a lot of exercise everyday. Very obedient and could be taken off leash. But I always establish a level of trust and learn the dog’s mannerisms before taking them off leash in the park or around the apartment/house block. Cura also had a tendency to be scared of aggressive dogs or loud noises so I always maintained a level of reassurance and safety with her. Also had to be aware of the high temperatures in LA (given the summer time), hence I’d walk her early in the morning and late at night. 5) a 5 yr old, 25 lb, hound whippet mixed dog named Phoebe - house sat and babysat her for 12 days. Highly anxious who needed to be administered an anxiety pill every morning and needed constant attention and long walks. 6) Hamsters - babysat them for a week at a time for friends whenever they went out of town. Fed and cleaned the box. Would occasionally bring it out of its cage to let it roam around the room in its ball. 7) I have my own pet - a red eared slider turtle who I claim to be my aquatic dog 😉. He is 18 years old and I got him when he was just the size of a quarter. But he gets excited to see me whenever I enter the room and will follow me in the apartment when I let him out to walk around. He can also recognize me out of a group of people! 8) I have a ton of plants that I have grown in the past 6 years - huge monstera (from a 1 foot baby to now a 7 ft giant with 30 inch wide leaves), verraccusum, constellation monstera, cacti, pothos, glorosium, etc. I’m currently unemployed (taking a hiatus from being an accountant in the corporate world) so I have all the time to take care of your pet(s). Available anytime to feed, walk, play, and assist in providing medication. I have a pet turtle that I’ve had for 18 years that I have by a sunny window. But every other day, I’ll let him out in the apartment to walk around and explore (but he will often just follow me around😉). I currently live in an apartment that doesn’t allow dogs or cats so over the last few years, I’ve always taken care of pets at the owner’s place. Either living at their place or coming to their place at set times to feed and/or walk their pets.

“Shihua was so sweet and amazing! She looked after our six-year-old Frenchie and our six month old kitten for four days and nights. It was obvious they both loved her and felt comfortable. I would definitely hire her again in a second!!”

“We absolutely love Christine... and so do our fur-baby step-sisters! She went above and beyond for our girls! She sent us the cutest pictures and videos. We knew our girls were being well cared for, and were so happy. We have not always had good luck with Rover sitters, but Christine renewed our faith in Rover. Truly, she is our dog whisperer! We will most definitely be having her care for Lola & Muffy again... and again! We recommend Christine wholeheartedly... 100%!”

“Linda is the perfect sitter! Knowing that she’s taking care of our pets while we’re out of town gives us peace of mind and really allows us to get away without feeling the need to worry. She’s communicative, kind, and our pets really have taken a liking to her.”

Kelsey V.

“Gisselle is phenomenal! She takes wonderful care of Nala (and all of Nala’s extra needs), sends lots of great updates, and is also very conscientious and takes great care of the apartment. Thank you!”

Camila T.

“Leslie was great. She was a good communicator before the sit and my dog loved her. She stayed after I got home to let me know how my dog was. I would definitely recommend her.”

Caitlin D.

“Lauren is beyond great with our high-energy Labradoodle. She is very communicative, sends us photos and videos. She is flexible and easy to work with. Lauren is a find!”

Helen O.

“Femke was the best! She clicked with Fernet immediately and from the photos she sent, he spent most of our trip on her lap :). Femke was incredibly communicative and made sure we had daily updates with photos and videos of thier adventures. Would definitely book again!”

Jennifer L.

“Brooke was a great caretaker of our dog Reilly! She stayed at our home with him, was very attentive and kind, and took him out on some great outings. She also did some training with him which we asked for and appreciated. Highly recommended!”
