House Sitting Grossmont

“We cannot say enough good things about Maureen. She's the best. This was our first time with Maureen as our sitter. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. One dog Spanky, is a COVID puppy and doesn't take to people easily. He took to Maureen the first time they meet. When we were on vacation we received daily reports and pictures from her. It set our minds at ease. So happy she will be taking care of our fur children again in December.”

“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Maria was fantastic. We were worried about leaving our two young dogs with someone new but she treated them like they were her own. She also sent updates and pictures as requested and I could tell that they loved her. We are so glad that we found her!”

About: I’ve actually had all kinds of pets my whole life, dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, hamsters, turtles so I can confidently say I’m attentive to each one’s personality, habits, needs. I’ve welcomed many stray dogs and cats into my home to care for them and feed them and rehome them. I’ve potty/litter trained countless times and I can train them for meal times, to sit or give paw(dogs), to not scratch the couch(cats). In the last 4 years in particular, family members have asked me to pop by and check on and feed their babies. One household has two very loving and hyper dogs ages 2 & 3 yrs old that have a specific diet and meal times. They are potty trained outside so I walk them 2-3x a day depending on the hours I watch them. Second household has one 14 yr old dog and a 2 yr old cat, also with their own diets and meal times. The dog uses pee pads as she’s older and potty trained outside as well. Third household has 7 cats that range from 1 yr old to 7 yrs old. They’re all more free spirited and independent as they look after each other, they all eat at the same time and have indoor and outdoor privileges. I currently have full and open availability. I’d love to gain more experience looking after pets. My cat is very independent and clean, as long as I feed him in the morning and evening and keep his litter box clean, he’s a very good boy. It gives me the confidence to be able to help someone else with their fur babies either for work or trips. I can do from simply check-ins or stay in nights at a time with them. Im super flexible. As of right now, unfortunately I don’t have the proper space to bring others pets in ): but I am more than dependable and respectful to care for furbabies in their own home. Anything from simple and winging it to a list of instructions, your furbaby won’t see me as an intruder, but as their company.

About: I have decades of experience with all animals - dogs, cats, reptiles, fish - my own and caring for others. I’m a very easy going and positive person. I prioritize consistency, safety, and, most importantly, lots of fun! *I am new to Rover and I’m happy to provide references from families I’ve worked with over the years. I recently moved back to San Diego, after 20 years in Northern CA where I worked in early childhood education. I’m enjoying getting to know this area again. I have one sweet, dog-loving pup named Osito. I’ve had him since he was 4 months old, he’s a well trained and funny little gentleman. Osito has grown up with cats, dogs, a rabbit and a turtle. He goes many places with me and he also has another parent to care for him while I’m out. We also have a chill, shy cat (BB). My daily schedule is flexible for walks, visits, and overnights. Other than school I also help my mom out, cooking her meals throughout the week (I love to cook!) and doing housework when needed. I work with all ages and personalities. From puppies and kittens to seniors, the wild ones, the shy and anxious ones, I’ve got you covered. Once I hear a little about your critter, I will approach accordingly to build trust and let my intuition guide us further. I also have experience administering medication and preparing meals. I can serve up delicious kibble or follow your pet’s raw food diet.

“Royce was well taken care of throughout the day. Paige stopped by at our planned intervals throughout the day and provided relevant updates. When we got home Royce was happy to see us, but also seemed content after his day with Paige. Thank you, Paige!”

“Bobbie S is an amazing dog sitter. She took such good care of our dogs and followed our instructions to the letter. Our dogs were in such a relaxed and happy mood when we returned just as if we had been there ourselves. 6/5 stars.”

About: I have 2 years of dog sitting experience, including caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience house sitting and serving with high school students at my church, which has strengthened my patience, communication, and responsibility—qualities I bring to every pet care job. Whether your pet needs playtime, a calm presence, or just someone to stick to their routine, I’m here to help! I’m currently committed to flight school. My schedule is different everyday. Sometimes I’m flying, sometimes my event gets canceled. My schedule for the next day comes out 3pm the day before, so planning other activities is pretty spontaneous. But I want something I can do on the side that’s flexible and financially rewarding so that I can save money to pay off my student loans, invest, and take my girlfriend on some dates! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I keep the environment clean, calm, and secure—always double-checking doors, gates, and food instructions. During walks, I stay alert and prioritize the dog’s safety, using secure leashes and avoiding risky situations.

“Brooke was absolutely wonderful!!! Leaving our 7-year-old Japanese Akita with someone new was a big decision for us, but Brooke exceeded all of our expectations. She took the time to build trust with Eoshi, and it was clear from her updates that she genuinely cared about his well-being. When we returned home, Eoshi was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. He ate well, enjoyed plenty of walks, and seemed completely comfortable with Brooke. We were especially happy to see that they developed such a great bond while we were away. Brooke also took exceptional care of our home. Everything was spotless when we returned, and she even started a load of laundry with the bed linens before leaving, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust Brooke with Eoshi again in the future. Highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’ve cared for animals of all ages in households with multiple cats and dogs, also including exotic pets. I grew up with a pet husky and miniature poodle, and have experience walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I work in the morning/ early afternoon as a Barista ~20 hours a week. I am generally free early morning (before 8am), and afternoon-nighttime. I am off ~3 days a week (usually between Monday-Thursday) during which I can give extra time and attention to pet care. I have years of experience caring for and walking all kinds of dogs and am very attentive to the emotions and needs of each animal.

About: I was raised surrounded by animals of all kinds that brought me so much joy and knowledge. I’m comfortable with tiny insects to large farm animals. I’ve done bottle feeding and walks with young animals. I’ve moved from home but would love to continue caring for animals all around! I work in education so my summer is open for anything! Only my Sundays am I usually busy in the morning to afternoon. I’ll seek to meet your needs as best as I can! :) My services will cater to you and your pet’s needs! I’ll always want to read the room to know the pets needs, while ensuring I stick to their care-schedule and keep them fed, entertained, and well kept in a clean environment!

“Sarah was so amazing!! We absolutely trusted her with our big ol baby of a Great Dane. She kept our house clean and even have a welcome home gift for us too!! Thank you so much Sarah!”

“Cristen did a wonderful job. This was my first time doing Rover and I was anxious about it but she made it such a great experience. I also Can en back to a house that was in even better state than when I left it. The dogs loved her as well. She clearly loves dogs and knows what she’s doing. 10/10 would highly recommend. I plan to use her next time I need a sitter.”
