“Thank you Katia for taking care of Macey. I loved the pictures and videos you sent. I high recommend Katia to care for your pet too. I will also take Macey to her when/if she is for my next vacation. 💜”
“Kim was so good with my dog Rex! This was my first Rover experience and I had a non-zero level of anxiety with leaving my good boy with a stranger while I go out of town. I’m super grateful for the care and attention she provided, and she sent me multiple pictures throughout the day so I had peace of mind. She has a great little space, a nice secure yard, and a really sweet companion dog. 10/10 will rebook for my next trip.”
“We are so happy we connected with Kyle and his family! They provided outstanding care for our dog, Bobby, and made our first experience leaving him with someone else an absolute success. Bobby acclimated quickly and got along really well with their dog, Zola, which made us even happier knowing he was comfortable and enjoying his stay. Kyle was easy to schedule with, communicated promptly, and kept us updated with frequent pictures and videos showing Bobby doing so well. All of this gave us tremendous peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip without worrying about him. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and we are so grateful to have found Kyle and his family. We’ve found our go-to caregivers for Bobby going forward! We highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and attentive pet sitter.”
“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.😁😂😂”
“Oh my goodness, Miss Stacy is truly a lifesaver! Words cannot express how wonderful and accommodating she is. I am hyper vigilant about my pup, and Stacy answered every question going above and beyond what anyone should have to. We were having medical procedures and had some complications. Stacy kept Romeo extra time and was willing to help out however she could. Not only did she take care of us, but Romeo is a border Collie - a breed that is high energy and high anxiety. He was not only well cared for, but flourished. I would now consider Stacy and her family (two and four legged variety) friends. That's the highest praise in my book.”
“We can't thank Teresa enough for being so welcoming and showing such genuine care for our precious girl Dotty. We felt confident that Dotty would be in a safe and loving home with a new little pal to keep her company. Teresa was kind enough to send updates on how our girl was doing while we were away. I wouldn't hesitate to book again when Teresa's availability and our travel schedules meet again! ❤”
“Laila had a great time! She was super comfortable and happy. Brandon was super attentive and communicative and sent us photo updates throughout her stay. Will definitely rebook”
“Dear Rebecca, Thank you soooo much for taking care of our loved ones in our unfortunate time of need. We appreciate your due diligence on updates with pictures and short video clips. It was definitely helpful in this time of my mom's passing that we saw Maverick was well taken care of. Regards, Mark & Jytte”
“Our senior dog Lexi had a great few days with Agueda and her family! We appreciated the daily updates and will definitely book with Agueda again next time we're out of town. Thank you!”
“I am so happy we booked with Jean Pierre. Our dog had a great time while we were gone and he was well cared for. We got photos and videos throughout his stay so we always knew what fun he was having. Drop off and pick up were simple and easy. I highly recommend you book with him. We will definitely be booking again soon.”
“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”
“My dog absolutely loved her time here. Both Priscilla and Pascual were inviting and very loving towards little Saylor. 100/10 I definitely recommend!!!”
“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.”

Daisy and her family took the best care of Sophia we could ever ask for. They always take extra precautions and communicate often. We felt at ease knowing Sophia was in loving hands the whole time. We can’t thank them enough and will continue to book with them whenever we have to travel!
Ty is the best pet sitter you can ever asked for! We left our Boxer with him for 3 weeks and we are very happy with our decision. Ty is very passionate about what he does and he is genuinely an animal lover. He cares about every dog that he looks after and gives his best attention to every dog, every day. Ty is also a professional dog trainer so he understands how dogs should be handled when they are playing, socializing and sleeping together, which is the best type of dog sitting that I want for my pet. My dog received great care and came home happy and healthy. Thanks, Ty! 😊
I’m so grateful for the care she gave my dog while I was away in Washington. She sent me a message every morning and night with pictures and an update on how the day went. Those little check-ins gave me so much peace of mind and let me enjoy my trip knowing my dog was in good hands. I’d happily book with her again!
We had an amazing experience with Priscilla and Pascual! They took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that our dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for while we were away. We came home to a very happy pup! We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with them again!
I would highly recommend Clara for any of your pet sitting needs. My 16 yr old senior Shih Tzu really enjoyed her stay. I could see the playfulness in my dog the moment I dropped her off and felt completely relaxed throughout the entire process. I also really appreciated Clara's responsiveness and communication. Thank you!
Our pups are like our children.We had a death in the family and needed care immediately.Teresa is absolutely amazing. She sent pictures daily and assured the boys were taken care of while we were away. It felt good knowing she was loving, reliable, trustworthy, communicative and helpful no matter what came up.The boys were returned better than before. I would definitely recommend her with your fur babies and be using her again for the care of my babies.
Erika was truly caring and loving towards my sweet pups. She communicated well and made me feel very comfortable about the pups being away from my husband and I. She’s top notch. I’m so grateful that I trusted her. Moving forward I would definitely have the pups be in her care again.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Imperial Beach home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Imperial Beach.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
