“Wes and his amazing family were PHENOMENAL! I had a last minute cancellation from a wagg hotel and he stepped in and saved me and my fur baby had a great time. Very reliable and amazing with communication! I will be returning to book with Wes for boarding anytime I need a safe place for my baby to stay.”


“Teresa is a terrific dog sitter. She took care of our pup as if he was hers. She is super friendly and a caring person. We were able to enjoy our time because we knew that our pup is in good hands. Teresa took our pup out for exercise at the beach and kept us updated with pictures. She is responded to our messages promptly. We would highly recommend Teresa.”


“Katia took great care of Chase our mini bull terrier. She sent lots of photos of him and walked him regularly. We will definitely use her in the future.”

“Amazing! The house has a large backyard and a sunroom. I got a lot of updates so I know my dog was well taken care of. He came home tired and happy.”


“Hi awesome Claudia & Cris! Your dogs are just so.. adorable!!🥰😊 Thanks so much for being there at such very short notice. Your sharing videos of Joby plainly sees he is having a wonderful time. We could see him smiling all around. Yessssss! I totally would recommend Claudia & Cris to care for your fur baby. We are one happy customer and will most definitely be back for future times ahead.😁😂😂”


“Sam will always be my go to Rover. She truly cares about my dogs and pays so much attention that the updates I get from here are always worthwhile. Wonderful dog photographer too by the way”


“This is our second time using Stacy and we love her and simba loves her. He gets to play with friends and he always comes back super happy. She is very responsive and kind and loves dogs.”

“We are beyond grateful to Ethan and his wife, Angie, for taking superior care of our 4-month-old puppy, Mini! When we received a last-minute invite to attend the Rock & Grill Tijuana Summer Fest, we urgently needed a pet sitter and Ethan stepped up without hesitation. He even offered to pick Mini up from our home, which was incredibly kind and a huge time-saver. From the moment they welcomed her, it was clear Mini was in loving, capable hands. Ethan and Angie treated her like royalty! She came home with a new harness, leash, and an adorable toy; all such thoughtful touches that meant the world to us. Most importantly, Mini returned happy, healthy, and clearly smitten with her weekend getaway. Mini looked and felt her absolute best after her stay; her nails were neatly trimmed, her nose and paws had a soothing balsam applied, and she smelled so clean and fresh. These sweet, spa-like details truly show how much care and attention Ethan and Angie pour into each pet's visit. Mini’s tail hasn’t stopped wagging since she got back! Ethan and Angie are everything you hope for in a pet sitter...kind, communicative, and completely devoted to animals. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again. 5-🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 and a huge thank you from all of us, especially Mini...🧔🏻♂️👩🏻🦱👨🏻🦱👧🏻🐶!!!”

“Vanessa took great care of my baby boy while I was away! She gave me regular updates. My boy came back so happy and exhausted from all the fun he had! I would highly recommend trusting your fur baby with her 🥰”


“We are so grateful to have found Eliana’s place just a week before our family trip. From the moment we dropped off our dog, we knew he was in good hands. Eleana was warm, attentive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease, and it was obvious that our senior dog felt comfortable and cared for. We could truly enjoy our vacation knowing he was safe, and happy. Thank you, Eliana, for treating our dog like family!”


“Tyler is amazing! My puppy loves it when I drop her off and doesn’t want to leave. I boarded my puppy with him and he keeps you up to date throughout. I highly recommend using Tyler!!!”


“Wonderful experience with Nancita. She and her husband clearly love dogs and my two labs were very well taken care of. Excellent communication and would defiantly book with them again.”


“Gilda did well at keeping me updated about their activities and whereabouts, with photos. My dog-hter looked so happy. She had a great time with Gilda.”


About: I’ve spent the past year caring for my own rescue pup, who came to me with a lot of emotional baggage after being abandoned. With patience, consistency, and tons of love, he’s transformed into a confident, happy, and active boy — and that experience taught me how deeply dogs feel and how much trust means to them. I know how important it is to find someone who really gets your pet’s needs — whether that’s a slow walk for a senior dog, high-energy playtime, or just gentle companionship while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always focus on building a calm, positive, and safe experience. If your pup needs extra reassurance, a steady routine, or just someone reliable to love on them while you’re gone — I’m your person. Let’s chat and see how I can help! I’m looking to become a stay at home wife as my husband & I are wanting to start our family! Right now, I work remotely so I am always home & can start walks any time after 2:00, but I am hoping to be able to transition to solely dog walking/sitting, being available all day at any time :) I have a two story house right on the Strand in Imperial Beach, a perfect place for your dog to get outdoors. I have a dog of my own, a 2 year old Husky/Australian Shepard mix, such a handsome boy named Jax, who absolutely adores other dogs & can keep yours company!! Jax can be crated when needed & I can accommodate any crate needs for yours :)

Teresa is AMAZING 🤩 This was our first time leaving our 2 dogs in quite some time and we were nervous, but Teresa put us at ease immediately, and then kept us well informed and feeling good the whole time. Lots of pictures and video and sharing! They were happy and relaxed from the first meet and greet, to our pick day💚 we will definitely be working with Teresa for our next dog care needs!!!

Gilda was very sweet, I could tell she took care of my baby very well! She responded very quickly and sent me super cute pics while she had him. Will be booking with her again. 💕

Sonia did an amazing job with Koda! It was my first time using Rover and she helped put my mind at ease by providing a meet and greet and detailed updates on my dogs activities & habits along and everything between while I was away on vacation. It was great to see pictures & videos of Koda. He enjoyed the outdoor yard as well as getting comfortable inside, I’m thankful for Sonia for providing a wonderful space and sweet care for Koda’s first Rover experience.

We had a fantastic experience with Kristen watching our dog, Hank! She kindly accepted our last-minute request, and we really appreciated the opportunity to make sure Hank and her dog, Cash, got along beforehand. As a family of five, vacations can get expensive quickly, so we were especially grateful for her affordable rates. Kristen went above and beyond, sending frequent updates, photos, and videos that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear Hank had a great time and felt right at home. We would absolutely recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and communicative dog sitter!

Thanks you Sanuk happy and enjoy stay with you and take care him if need take care you dog he very good take care thanks again
Erika made my trip so much more enjoyable knowing that my girl Belle was being cared for like I would care for her. Yes Belle is annoyingly needy I know this for a fact. Erika’s little guy Cowboy is just a sweetheart and handled Belle being needy and not sure what to think of mom leaving her. She came around and they played. I HIGHLY recommend Erika, she responded to my messages and sent me pics. Thank you Erika, Wade and Cowboy! I’m so thankful for you.

We loved our booking with Robert. He provided daily photos and never left our dog unattended. We knew she was being well taken care of while we were out of town and that provided ease of mind. He followed all instructions and was very accommodating.

Wonderful dog sitters! My dog loved to play, walk and hang out in the backyard with them! Very attentive to her and sent me lots of pictures and videos. This is my second time boarding and will do it again next time needed.

My dog absolutely loved her time here. Both Priscilla and Pascual were inviting and very loving towards little Saylor. 100/10 I definitely recommend!!!

We are very happy with Katia! Katia made our vacation very special by taking time to assure me and my family that our pets Teddy and Blue were safe and sound. Katia sent pictures from the moment we left up until moments before we picked them up. These pictures were special to us being it was the first time we used Rover and left our pets with someone. Thank you Katia and we will definitely be using your service really soon.
