Safety and trust are my top priorities, and I have designed my home environment to provide a secure sanctuary for dogs of all ages and sizes.

About: I have my own dog, and have had him since he was 4 months old, so I know what goes into keeping a dog happy and stimulated. My dog is my child and my life revolves around him. I currently work part time and also have a 3 year old dog. I still currently have a lot of free time and am looking to do something I love, with that time. My dog, Bandit, is my child. He is a completely indoor dog who has free range of the house and furniture. He is one of the family. I take him to the dog beach or dog park every single day.
“Heather was awesome! She took great care of my cats and kept me updated with messages and photos, which I really appreciated. She was reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly loves animals. I came home to happy, well-cared-for cats and had total peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely book Heather again and highly recommend her!”
“Jaime is amazing and was so wonderful with our kitty! We were gone for two weeks, and though I was originally very stressed about leaving our fur baby for so long, all that stress went away upon meeting Jaime. She is super sweet and accommodating, and she provided very thorough notes/updates to us after each check-in (with lots of pictures)! Our cat is very shy around new people, but she took to Jaime right away. All in all, we had an amazing experience with Jaime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet(s)!!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10. I had a boxer mixed pitbull. I love being around animals and I love dogs. I’m currently working a part-time job only on the weekend I’m very lenient with my schedule and I have a lot of time to fill and I would love to spend that time with your animals. I will ensure to walk across the crosswalks pick up poop and ensure your dog is safe healthy, and hydrated. I will also ensure that your dog is healthy.
About: Animals are and will for ever be part of my life, they are a huge source of happiness for me, even if I’m not their owner and only have them for a few minutes, I will love them and respect them as if they where my own. I’ve taken care of many dogs, cats, and other different pets and have the experience needed for knowing what they want and how to treat them. I am available to take care of your pets any day of the week even weekends! This mostly during breaks, I am a college student so during school semesters the availability can change depending on my classes, but I’ll usually change that in advance on the app. I also can do nights, or we can arrange something that will work for both sides, I’m very open to talk and help in any way possible! Most services are offered, I can walk them, feed them, spend time with them and pet them of course! I can stay nights, the day or even a few hours or minutes at your place and they are also welcome to my home any time. Safety is important on both sides, if pets are aggressive or bite please let me know in advance, if they have conditions or medical issues please let me know, I’ll take care of them with all the safety needed and provide them with a loving, caring and safe environment.
“As always, Madeline went out of her way to accommodate us on short notice and took excellent care of our dogs and fish!!! We highly recommend Madeline for taking care of your pets!!!”
About: I have had pets since I was born. I raised small breed dogs (family dogs) when I was younger and went in to raise 2 large breed dogs at my current age. I have trained my dogs since they were puppies and have often received compliments on their behavior. They enjoy time outside, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats. All of which I’d offer to any dog in my care. I have a spacious home with plenty of room to run around. I am skilled in giving medication to all sizes and ages. My Aussie is not keen on meds so I’ve had to learn ways to get around that. I love all animals and someday hope to have a farm once my husband retires from the Navy. I do not work. My husband is the worker. I’m the homemaker. So I have plenty of time to do drop ins, check ins, etc and will not leave your dog for long periods of time. I have my own car, so I’m able to make it from point A to B without issue. I also have a routine that my own dogs follow, so I’m up everyday by 8am. I have 2 crates already located in my home. I hsve 2 dogs of my own. A female pitbull (Erza) and a male Aussie (Killua). I have a garage that I allow them to run around in for exercise (I’m working on making it into a doggy play room for my dogs, but it’s large so it’d fit up to 8 dogs). I have have 3 Furbo cameras in my home, so on the off chance I have to not be home I am able to view them on camera. I can also send recordings as needed.
“New sitter and Melissa was fantastic !!! Took lots of notes during our meet and greet, very thoughtful and thorough. Comfortable right off the back with our furbabies .. Found us a new sitter ! Very greatful”
“Amber has been my go-to dog sitter/walker for years. I highly recommend Amber because she has always taken great care of my dog, who is elderly with some chronic health conditions.”

About: Hello everyone! Nice to meet you! My name is Briana and I’m originally from San Diego. Throughout my life, I’ve cared for many dogs and have owned three. I currently have one dog, Duke. He is the greatest companion and has so much love to give! He’s super friendly with other dogs and such a silly pup. If given the chance to care for your dog, I would treat them as if they were my own. There is no greater joy than having a dog around to love and play with and I would be honored to care for your dogs whenever needed. I understand how difficult it can be to find someone to care for your pup on such short notice but I am more than willing to work with your schedule! I’m currently working full-time but have the ability to work remotely. I’m fully available throughout the week, weekends, and holidays. I’m very open to creating a schedule that you are comfortable with. I live near the silver strand trail and regularly take my dog out for long walks. My pup loves to sleep together and loves to cuddle.

Heather took great care of our 2 cats and pet hen while we were away. Our cats quickly took to her kind and calm demeanor during the meet and greet. She provided a written note with fun pictures for every visit. We looked forward to the updates, which helped alleviate stress of our travel. She handled a couple requests that came up and was very responsive throughout. We arrived back to happy, well cared for pets and a tidy home! We highly recommend Heather, and absolutely will re-book in the future.
Jaime was such a heaven sent! She was so accommodating to my requests (even a last minute request to drop in a day extra) and sent our family so many photos of our animals! She responded super quickly to my texts and gave me such peace of mind. Prior to booking she came and did an initial visit to meet our animals so they would be comfortable with her presence. Our animals, with all their quirks, took to her so quickly and looked full of joy when she was visiting. She even helped with obedience training for our dog so her schedule wasn’t interrupted! Our family will definitely be rebooking Jaime on our next trip so we know our animals are safe, provided for, and loved while we are away. Thank you so so much Ms. Jaime!!
I don't want everyone knowing Jovi is a terrific sitter and just keep her all to myself, but that won't be kind. Jovi takes excellent care of my fur babies. Her updates are detailed, which I appreciate. She is wonderful about cleaning up after my two English Bulldogs, which I know is a big ask. Always come home to clean floors. Those who have bulldogs know what that means. I have great peace of mind when Jovi is watching over my animals.
Andrea is the BEST! She makes my cat feel so comfortable and always takes great care of him. She is the only person I book when I leave town and ill use her services every time she is available. Very reliable and kind. Great communication so you always know what's going on while youre away. I recommend her every time!
Krista was amazing, she went above and beyond! It was my first time using Rover so I was a little worried about how it would go but she helped me through so much. My dog ended up having stomach problems the day she was going to watch him. She was very understanding and accommodating. She made sure he was comfortable and safe which I am very grateful for. She gave me updates on how he was doing and was able to help ease my nerves. She was efficient and communicative. I’m so grateful for her because it was added work on her end to watch over my dog that day. You can tell she genuinely loves dogs and was such an amazing person. I will be a returning customer because of my positive experience with Krista.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Imperial Beach on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 8,523 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Imperial Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Imperial Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Imperial Beach. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
