About: Hi there & welcome to my Rover profile! My name is Sarah, I’m 25 years old, and I’m based in El Centro, CA. I am currently a full time student, therefore, I’m working toward becoming a full-time pet sitter, and I’m so excited to grow in this field because caring for fur babies is truly my passion. My schedule varies on Mondays and Wednesdays, however, I am willing to work with anyone depending on time frames, so please let me know! I share my home with my sweet pup Daisy, who is gentle, friendly, and loves making new animal friends. I also share my home with my two cats, Pumpkin and Sapphire. Being around my own fur babies has truly deepened my love for animals, of all furry companions. I know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s hands and I don’t take that lightly. Whether your pet is playful, shy, cuddly, or independent, I approach every animal with patience, kindness, and respect for their routine. I treat each fur baby like my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. I provide regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected at all times. My goal is to offer the kind of care that gives you peace of mind and makes your fur baby feel completely at home. I’d love to set up a Meet & Greet to see if we’re a good fit! Please feel free to message me with any questions — I’m here to help however I can. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! it fits into my daily routine because I have my chihuahua and two cats, who I have to give medicine to every night, feed every day, and love on always! In My Home: Pets staying with me get treated like part of the family — with plenty of love, playtime, and a calm, safe environment. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding, potty breaks, walks, and bedtime habits. I provide a clean space, comfy spots to relax, and never leave them alone for long. Whether they’re energetic or shy, I make sure they feel secure and cared for. In Your Home: I respect your space and your pet’s routine. I make sure they feel at ease by maintaining familiar schedules, surroundings, and rules. I’ll give them the same affection and attention you would — plus regular updates and photos so you feel totally in the loop. My goal in either space is simple: happy, healthy pets and peace of mind for you!

About: ENG | ESP Hi, my name is Melissa. Since I can remember I live surrounded by pets. I have always thought that pets are a member of the family, that is why the care of our pets must be exceptional. They also need attention, going for a walk, playing and most importantly a lot of love. Hola, mi nombre es Melissa. Desde que tengo memoria he vivido rodeada de mascotas. Siempre he pensado que las mascotas son parte de la familia es por eso que el cuidado de ellas debe ser excepcional. Ellos también necesitan atención, salir a pasear, jugar y lo más importante mucho amor. I work from Monday to Friday. My current routine is taking my pets for a walk in the morning, to the park at noon, then to the park again after work, and a walk at night. On weekends, I dedicate the whole day to my pets. We go to Woof Town (a huge park in Imperial) or play in the local park with the other pets from the neighbors. I live in a private residence that has a dog park and a special track for walks. I try to go on at least two walks a day and visit the dog park daily.
“Thank you, again, for going above and beyond for my boys. When they weren't eating you went to the store and got them food to include in their kibble! Soooooo much appreciated! I know they are in the best care with you! Much, much appreciated! They are happy boys!”

About: I’ve taken care of both dogs and cats for the better part of my life. I grew up with both and still cannot decide which is better as I love them equally. My favorite part about pet sitting is getting to know all their different, spunky personalities and tailoring to all their energy demands. I love the outdoors and being around animals, I can’t remember a time when I wasn’t! I am a very active individual and in my free time I go on hikes and mini adventures. If your fur babies love adventures too I’d love to bring them with. I graduated from the University of Guelph with a bachelors in Animal Science and am a recent masters graduate from the University of Queensland in Wildlife Biology. To say the least… I love animals and aim to care for their well-being and health. I have been taking care of a lot of fur babies by word of mouth on my own for over two years - lots of them shown in the photos of my profile! During this time, I taught a doggo to swim and have tended to many geriatric and young pets. For instance, my uncle left me his elderly dog with arthritis and I have seen her become a young puppy again with a lot of swimming and glucosamine! I have also assisted in socializing a dog, Bentley, with a diagnoses of extreme anxiety and have become his favorite person and still sit for him on occasion when his parents are away (the little guy with the pumpkin shirt in the photos if you spot him!). My priority is their safety, respecting your training regimen and any of your dog’s or cat’s needs. If they require any medication or special assistance, I have worked in a veterinary clinic, Ambassador Animal Hospital, for a year and am very comfortable accommodating to these. I will tend to all your pets needs at your request with a whole lot of play and cuddles! Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions. I am a recent graduate looking for work in wildlife conservation. I have a lot of free time as I am applying for jobs and my schedule is very flexible at the moment! I have no pets at home and can provide one-on-one play and care with your fur babies. They will have my undivided attention and if they are social and good with other dogs, I’d happily take them to the dog parks around me to socialize and play! I have quite a few trails around me, including the rock creek park.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for three years, and I have loved every second of it. I have been able to build an amazing bond with these precious fur babies. I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, and weekend availability. I’m willing to drive between Brawley and El Centro to take care of your pets needs. Drop Ins: I intend to follow all the directions you have set for your pets! I am able to crate all dogs if you choose as well. Walks: I will always stay vigilant to your dog as well as all surrounding areas!
About: I've been passionate about animal care since I could remember and currently work with them almost every day with my career! I'm familiar with all ages of care. I'm a full time vet tech 4 days of the week and my availability is Mon-Thursday after 8pm and Fri-Sunday all day. I also have reliable transportation. I do not currently have availability to board your pet at my current residence but can provide quality care at your home with all the necessities needed for you pets.
About: I own 4 big sized dogs and two 15 year old kitty cats. I love animals and always would get in trouble for being home the strays I found. I would foster dogs while in school as well as find missing dogs their homes :) Currently I am a freshly 18 year old who has an open schedule. And will take same day request and same day cancellations. I’m here to help you depending on your schedule I have a fenced yard with a pool and plenty shade. I also have doggy doors that remain open into main house to ensure no inside accidents

Sarah S.
“I’ve had the privilege of witnessing Sarah's incredible love and care for animals firsthand. Before we were married, she helped me care for my cat, Pumpkin, and it was immediately clear that her connection with animals is something truly special. Sarah has an innate ability to bond with them in a way that’s gentle, patient, and deeply compassionate. She didn’t just help watch Pumkin—she treated her like family, always attentive to her needs and making sure she felt safe and loved. Sarah’s nurturing spirit and genuine affection for animals are undeniable, and any pet lucky enough to be in her care will be cherished beyond measure.”

“I am Ulises, my partner is Laura's sister, and I am also Laura's dog-loving friend. For two years I have formed a close connection to Laura's pets, and have helped Laura and her sister take care of their pets. Every time I visit their pets are happily sleeping, eating, and playing. When her sister and I took a trip to Julian, CA, Laura stepped in to take care of my and her sister's pets. I have enjoyed playing with their furry friends during visits, and I can't wait for next time to hopefully greet a new boarding furry friend at their door!”

Amandine B.
“I would strongly recommend Amandine who has been taking care of our chocolate lab and 2 cats. She is very attentive and caring. She consistently took our dog on walks, swimming and long hikes. For my older cat who needed special needs such as getting fluid, she went out of her way to take her to the vet and provided her with the extra care she needed. She is very passionate about animal wellbeing and truly demonstrated her love for animals.”
Celeste G.
“I cannot recommend our dog sitter enough! We’ve been having her dog sit for the past 5 years. She is dedicated to providing the best care for our fur babies, always going above and beyond to make sure they are happy and comfortable. She is amazing with our boxers, patient and understanding of their unique personalities. I trust her completely in my home, knowing she will treat it with respect and care. Her reliability is unmatched, always showing up on time and keeping me updated on how our dogs are doing. If you're looking for a trustworthy and dependable dog sitter, look no further!”
