“Dustin was the perfect dog/housesitter! He stayed with our pup while we were away for about a week, and did a great job keeping in contact with beautiful photographs of our dog, as well as taking excellent care of our home. He is a natural with dogs and immediately connected with our dog at their initial meeting. Would definitely recommend Dustin and have him back again next time!!”

“A wonderful and kind girl. Trustworthy above & beyond cat person. She stayed in touch multiple times a day and made the time pass for Bowie as if I had never left. My car has never been so at peace in my absence & I am so happy I found my new Catsitter.”

“Bridgette was so wonderful!! She stayed at our home and watched our puppy and made us feel so comfortable leaving town. Highly recommend!! Kind, responsible, and our pup loved her.”

“Elise did a fantastic job dogsitting Athena! She was very responsive, gave daily updates (with pictures). She even took time meet Athena before I traveled, and to learn some commands. I had a complete peace of mind during my trip and Athena was sad to let her go. I would definitely recommend Elise, and book her again, 💯.”

“Averi was an absolute dream sitter for our big dog! She was very thoughtful, gave him lots of love, kept us updated with photos - and even stayed an extra night when our flight got cancelled. We returned home to a clean house and happy pup! Will definitely be booking again!”

“Naomi was amazing. She watched my nervous pup and was very patient with her. She provided clear and frequent updates. She even worked on some training with her! I will absolutely be rebooking Naomi.”


“Julie was very sweet, communicative, and followed every request. She sent lots of updates/photos and my animals warmed right up to her! She left my place spotless and would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a sitter!”

“Dina and Jose are amazing pet sitters. Dina was very communicative and sent great updates and photos daily. She really made me feel confident that everything was under control while we were gone. One of our dogs is usually quite anxious, but he seemed totally comfortable with them and was super relaxed when we got home. The house was clean when we got home. They even washed the sheets and took care of our trash cans so we didn't have to worry about it. I so appreciate them caring for our pets!”

“Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with! She house / pet sit for me on a super last minute request. I could tell my pup was well loved and care for by Erin which allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was in good hands! I HIGHLY recommend working with her :) She asked a lot of great questions upfront so I knew she took the role very seriously. She is my new go-to sitter for sure! THANKS AGAIN!!”

“Roberta took great care of Monti for me last minute when he wasn’t feeling well. She gave me updates throughout the day which made me feel at ease. The apartment was clean when I returned.”

“Kendall was phenomenal. He took great care of our two pitties and our bearded dragon and sent tons of wonderful pics. So thankful we found him to stay at our place while we were out of town!”

“Melissa did a wonderful job taking care of my Mali and Simba. She gave me updates with pics each day and even took Mali to the beach! I would definitely use her again to watch my fur babies!!”

“Josette did a wonderful job of taking care of our three dogs. She is responsive, reliable, was great with giving medications to our senior dog, providing updates and pictures. She stayed at our home while we were away, which we love because both my husband and I work from home. Our dogs are used to having someone at home almost all day long. She also walked our dogs in the morning and in the evening. She played ball with our dogs a few times a day in the backyard. She is also clean and tidy. She washed all the towels and bedding that she used. We did not expect that at all. We’re so grateful to have found her. She loves animals and understands a dogs’ body language. We will be returning clients. We highly recommend Josette to take care of your pets.”

“Desiree was obsessed with our dog and cats in the best way possible. Tons of lovely photos and updates on how they were adjusting to our absence. She even wanted to take our pup to the beach since it was so hot out to give him a break from the weather. We had to leave at a time of crisis for our family and she gave the sweetest leave behind of our puppies paw prints arts and crafted into flowers. 10/10 highly recommend.”

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
“It was wonderful having Elizabeth watch over both my puppies. She was their first sitter and they did such an amazing job because of her amazing personality towards them. She treated my pups as if they were hers. Would 1000% trust her with my pups any day.”

“Regina was great!! Would absolutely recommend using her and will definitely try to book her again in the future. She was very courteous and respectful, followed all instructions and checked in with us if she had any questions. George was still needing his cone when she watched him, which was unexpected, but she did a great job managing that and he seemed to be very happy with her. We got daily photos and updates which we always love, and we returned home to a clean house and happy dog. Thanks so much for taking such great care of him and for leaving our house spotless!”

“Catalina was a pleasure. It was my dog’s first time being watched in this capacity and she navigated with grace and patience. It was easy for me to breathe on my trip knowing my baby girl, Nike, was well kept. 10/10 Recommendation”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Jolla
Josette is the absolute best! She’s taken care of Buster a few times now and I feel so fortunate that we found her. This neurotic dog mom no longer has to worry when she’s away. Buster’s an anxious senior with some aches and pains and because Josette’s so empathic she’s naturally in tune with what he needs. We just adore her and can’t thank her enough for taking such excellent care of our baby!

Rachel was amazing! She was really sweet and easy to talk to. Nemo was extremely comfortable with her and we received tons of photos! Rachel also played a treat scavenger hunt around the apartment with Nemo which he loved. We will definitely be booking with her again.
