About: I have been pet sitting since I was 11 years old. I have been relied on to walk, feed, care for animals of all ages. I may be able to do short-notice availability during weekdays. I adore animals and have had multiple pets in my life: cats, dog, geckos, turtle. I work from home & have slower afternoons and evenings, that gives me time to play with your pups and kitties during the work week. I have some flexibility on timing during the day to find a time that would work best I am very respectful of people spaces, as I’d hope someone would be in my home/of my pets. I am attentive of the pets needs; making sure they are safe/inside, entertained, bathroom needs are met, well fed and watered. Any medicine needing administered I can help with as well.
“Alexandra was incredible - she was so patient, communicative, and caring with our foster dog, who required some extra love and attention. She has extensive knowledge and experience caring for dogs of all backgrounds and sizes. Thank you, Alexandra, for all of your help and taking such great care of Abby!”


“Chad is communicative, kind, and trustworthy. He was flexible and experimented with different strategies to help our anxious dog, Kenzo, feel more comfortable on walks. Highly recommend his services and will gladly work with him again in the future!”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and a proud dog and cat mom, so I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I love long walks, spending time outdoors, and giving pets plenty of attention, affection, and playtime. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I run my own business remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting at a variety of times, and I love having the flexibility to spend lots of quality time with your pets! When caring for pets in their home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love. On walks, I’m attentive to their pace, surroundings, and individual needs, and I’m always focused on keeping them safe while making sure they get plenty of exercise and enrichment.
“Hi Mitchell, thanks for taking care of Molly for my last-minute trip! Really appreciate it! I also want to give special thanks for resolving the issue this morning with the door lock. That's above and beyond! 👍🏼 John”

About: I’ve had animals in my life for over 20 years. I am a very active person - I love to walk, run, and hike throughout San Diego. I would love to take care of your animals while you are away, do daily dog walking or stop by for a visit! Pet sitting fits in my routine very easily! I work from home so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can easily work from other places I make sure client’s pets are well fed, well watered well exercised, cleaned up after, and that they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away

“Javi (French bulldog) has a big personality with lots of quirks! Mackenzie does a great job walking him according to his needs, and she is a great (and fast) communicator.”

“Chaminie took really excellent care of our Spikey boy. She gave timely updates after their walks and always played with him at home. I would 100% recommend her to a friend and will def book her again!”

“Was able to accommodate last minute booking with ease! Very kind and reliable! No issues during booking, initial meet up or scheduled visits. Highly recommend, looking forward to rebooking with Mara!”

“Jelena was responsive, friendly, punctual, and a good communicator during this process. It was a somewhat last-minute holiday weekend request, she handled everything great. Would definitely re-book with her.”

About: I’ve pet sit for cats and dogs of many breeds. I have fostered young puppies and kittens. My friends and I love all animals as the pictures show. I also have experience in training and agility classes for dogs. I’m a graduate student taking mostly online classes and would love a study companion or excuse to get out of the house and go for a walk. I am a graduate student and aspiring medical student who studies the majority of the days and would love a companion! I’m always looking for an excuse to go on a walk/hike and take a break from studying so frequent breaks is not an issue. I have no pets at home and have 1 other roommate (female). I live in a fairly quiet part of pacific beach. I don’t have a backyard but I have grass patches right outside my home for any quick potty breaks.

“Maddie walked my two toy poodles for a week when I needed extra help. She was amazing! She was extremely prompt and engaged enthusiastically with my pups. My dogs loved her and were very excited every time she came to the house. Maddie is an intelligent, kind young woman who will take excellent care of your fur babies.”

“Elizabeth was amazing! We had her walk our Belgian Malinois for the week of Christmas. We picked her because having large dogs herself we knew she would be comfortable with our Jax. She is definitely a dog lover and Jax loved his walk/run with her every morning. She is very sweet and easy to work with. Loved seeing her smiling face every day. Thank you Elizabeth!”


About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and have lots of experience caring for them. I walk and care for my own dogs regularly, and I’ve also helped take care of family friends’ and friends’ dogs. I’m comfortable with walking, feeding, playing with them, and making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I’m currently a student at San Diego State University, so I am taking a few classes but my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m mostly free all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I’m available later in the afternoon and evenings, which gives me plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and pet care. For Safety, trust & environment: “I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while they’re with me. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and make sure their normal routine is kept as much as possible. I’m attentive during walks, feeding, and playtime, and I’ll always treat your pet like they’re my own.”
About: I am new to Rover but I have been that ‘go-to’ person to pet sit for friends & family and I have had dogs throughout my life. I recently lost my fur baby due to cancer after 14 yrs. Friends & Family have trusted me with their pets for walks, pet sitting and feeding. I love puppies to senior dogs. I will take care of your fur baby like it’s my own. I’m currently working from home part time so I have plenty of time to play, walk or feed your pups. I am available for walks or doggy day care Monday to Friday. I live close to a park and walking and bike path so walks with lots of sniffs guaranteed. And of course, lots of pets and cuddles.
About: Hi! I’ am absolute animal lover based in Pacific Beach, currently on break from the corporate world and looking to use my ample free time to care for your furry friends. I grew up with both dogs and cats and currently live with my 3 year old neutered indoor only cat named Bob (although he does get backpack and deck time if supervised) - giving me ample time to take care of your furry friends. I rescued my Bob at 4 weeks old and have also fostered a few other rescue cats. When I’m back at my family home, Bob is in the company of three other amazing cats. My family dog Scout passed recently but he was an Australian cattle dog with a lot of energy and a huge personality so I’m used to “intense” breed dogs and would be happy to walk or sit for them. I’m trustworthy and very caring so you would have nothing to worry about, leaving your babies with me. I have babysit for my friends animals plenty of times but since i’m new to this “professional” sitting, I would be more than happy to provide references, facetime/ call, or meet in person. I know how important it is to trust the person you leave your furry family with. Im currently on sabbatical from my corporate job and love being outside. I live with my best friend and roommate of 10 years who is an animal lover as well so she is always available to watch my cat for me if i’m out of the home or help provide more love for your babies while in the home! I have a spacious two level town house with a fenced in patio and unfenced front yard, right by the beach. My cat is indoors as I worry about cars, coyotes, and other dangers outside but we play nonstop and he also takes the occasional backpack/stroller ride around the town. Sometimes we’ll let him lay with us on the walled in deck if he’s being supervised but never alone. He’s treated like a prince! Safety is my utmost concern so whatever your preferences are with your animal, i’d follow them strictly.
“Lauren is quick to respond and has been great helping me out with last minute requests. She sends me the best pictures of my pup and I know my pup adores her! Lauren is timely, trustworthy, and great with dogs. I’m so happy I found her to walk my Midge!”

About: I have been a dog lover my whole life, and absolutely adore caring for and spending time with these divine beings! I have been dog-sitting for the past 10 years where I have stayed overnight at homes, cared for dogs in my own home, and done check-ins/walks during the day. I am very active and more than willing to run with your dog if needed! I work for Rover because I genuinely enjoy spending time with your animals, and I hope to alleviate all worries or stressors that may arise when you have to be separated from them. I look forward to meeting you and your dogs! My remote work gives me the flexibility to provide a fun, loving doggy daycare for your dog. I’m also available to stop by for check-ins/walks during the day. I always try to create an environment that the dog is most comfortable with. I am very attentive to details and make sure your dog receives the treatment you request!

Alexandra was incredible - she was so patient, communicative, and caring with our foster dog, who required some extra love and attention. She has extensive knowledge and experience caring for dogs of all backgrounds and sizes. Thank you, Alexandra, for all of your help and taking such great care of Abby!

Julie was so good with my dog Zorro. She made time for a meet and greet even though my request was last minute. It was extremely considerate of her. I could tell she had a lot of experience with shy dogs because Zorro was immediately comfortable with her. Thank you Julie!!

Brittany did a great job walking our golden. She came over to meet her before the day of the walk and was clearly very comfortable with dogs. She even texted me the day before the walk to confirm that she would be there. Talk about peace of mind! Our dog loved her and I know she is great hands with her.

Zach has been fantastic with our dogs, Bo and Millie. He’s dependable, communicative, and genuinely cares about making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention at the dog park. They always come home happy, tired, and well cared for. It’s clear he loves what he does, and we have complete peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. I highly recommend Zach to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog walker!

Jelena has been absolutely wonderful with our dogs. She’s dependable, caring, and clearly loves animals. We always feel at ease knowing they’re in such good hands, and it’s obvious they enjoy spending time with her. She communicates well, is always professional, and goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs are happy and well cared for. I highly recommend Jelena to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog walker!
