Pet Sitting La Jolla

About: Hi! My name is Emme, and I’m currently an Occupational Therapy student living in La Jolla. I’ve been caring for animals for many years and absolutely love spending time with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and provide overnight care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re gone. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, administering basic medications, and caring for multiple pets at once. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and provide plenty of updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! As a graduate student in Occupational Therapy, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care for your pets. I am generally available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. I only have in-person classes on Mondays, so I can spend plenty of quality time with your pets and maintain their normal routines. I know leaving your pets with someone else can be stressful, so I do everything I can to make both you and your pets feel comfortable. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, and routines to keep things as normal as possible for your pet. I treat every home with respect and every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’ll also send plenty of updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi! My name is Lauren and I grew up with many cats and dogs. Over the years, I've cared for pets by dog and cat sitting for friends and neighbors, giving me experience with walking, playing, and caring for high-energy dogs. Since moving to San Diego, I've really been missing my family pets, and I'd love the opportunity to spend time caring for yours. I love spending time outdoors, going on long walks, and staying active, so I'm always happy to give pets the exercise and attention they need. Although I'm new to Rover, I'm dependable and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. I look forward to providing your furry family member with reliable care! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to accommodate a variety of care needs. I'm happy to work with your schedule! While I'm currently unable to host pets in my home, I'm more than happy to care for your pet in the comfort of your home!

“Julia was quick to respond and super reliable. She took my puppy to her house to play with her two dogs and then dropped her back off, and visited again in the afternoon to feed her lunch and let her out. She sent many pictures and took great care. Highly recommend and have already booked Julia again!”

“Julie is kind, patient, and extremely reliable. She took the time to get to know my four cats & their routines so that she could take exceptional care of them while we were away. She even returned to my home after-hours to help one of my kitties get unstuck from behind the washer! I highly recommend Julie to all pet parents.”

About: I’m the go-to pet sitter for all my friends and have had pets my whole life! My pets have always meant the world to me, so you can rest assured I’ll treat yours with the TLC they deserve. I’m currently working from home which gives me the freedom to take care of pets whenever I’d like. Bring on all of the fur-babies! :) Unfortunately, my current place does not allow animals, which is why the only services I’m providing would be me going to your dog. I’m available for play-time, potty breaks, walks/runs etc. Ideally, I’d like to know if your dog has quirks or preferences that would make both of us more comfortable. Behavioral notes are key as well.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats and have plenty of experience caring for them. I have fostered cats and dog/cat sat all throughout middle and high school. I also trained my dog when he was a puppy. Comfortable with whatever fun quirks your dog may have:) I work part time in La Jolla, so I have plenty of time. My shifts are typically around 4 hours, with the maximum being 6. If longer than 5 hours, I can pop over on my lunch break and check on your pets! I am more than willing to spend the night with your pets, and can manage any crating needed. That being said, if they are most comfortable in the bed, I don't mind cuddling!

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I’m reliable and value clear communication. Happy to be your dog’s best friend. Let me know how I can help. I have my own web development business with a flexible schedule. On my free time I enjoy playing music and making ceramics. Find me at the beach or out walking around town. I have a small house in Bay Ho and currently have no pets. Happy to come to you or host your dog at my home.

“Super easy to coordinate with!”

“Morgan was great! She took amazing care of Lucy and followed all the care instructions I left. Super easy to communicate with. I’d definitely recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”

William B.

“Elizabeth took amazing care of my four cats while I was away. She kept me updated with daily photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. I came home to happy, relaxed cats. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter — highly recommend to anyone who wants peace of mind while they’re away!”

Jennifer J.

“Lindsay was amazing! I’m a first time user of Rover and just moved to SD. I was a bit nervous for this first visit but Lindsay made sure to answer all my questions, actively communicated, and really made me feel at ease with the first home visit. She was patient with my dog who is having some mild adjustment issues to his new environment. I will definitely be reaching out to her again!”

“Melissa jumped in last minute and was super sweet to my pups. She is very easy to communicate with and I’ll definitely book her services again”

About: I’m a teacher, so I’m naturally patient, incredibly reliable, and used to keeping things on a strict schedule. If your pet has a specific routine, exact feeding times, or needs precise instructions followed, I will get it done. I love dogs of all sizes and cats, too! :) Since I'm on summer break, I'm home all day and available for constant companionship and frequent walks. Once the school year starts in September, I’ll be switching over to evening and weekend availability. I am a teacher, and I am on summer break, so my schedule is wide open. I am home throughout the day and available for full-time companionship, frequent walks, and flexible drop-in times. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. When I'm in your home, I treat it with respect, keep everything secure, and stick closely to your pet's normal routine, so they feel safe and relaxed. Out on walks, I’m always alert, keep them securely leashed, and make sure they’re having fun while staying completely out of harm's way.

About: I have been around dogs since I was 3 years old. I have 2 rescue dogs and have experience fostering multiple puppies at a time. I also have experience caring for other animals such as horses and genuine pigs. I walk and feed my dogs daily. They are high energy and require two walks everyday. For this reason, I have also learned how to train dogs. I have a very large yard and two other friendly dogs to keep yours company. Walks are a big part of my daily dog care routine so your dog would be sure to receive a lot of exercise. Additionally, I am very flexible with care and happy to crate your dog if needed. There are many dog parks in the area that are easily accessible as well.

“Janet was wonderful - very easy to work with, generous and kind with our dog who loved her, and very detailed in her reports. Will definitely book her again. Thank you Janet!”

About: I’ve lived with and taken care of dogs my whole life. My friends and family often rely on me to take care of their pets when they are unavailable, and nothing makes me happier than spending my time with dogs! I have gained experience training dogs with my family’s newest rescue dog, and have loved helping him build resiliency and trust. I look forward to making your dogs feel safe and loved! I’m in the process of finding a new job since I just moved here, so I’m currently available anytime, including most weekends! Availability will likely change once I know my new schedule. I have my own pup at home, so I am not boarding or sitting at the moment. For drop in visits and walks, I will treat your home with safety and care!

“Rachel seemed great and seemed very responsible and is clearly a dog lover!”

Karen M.

“Kristina is so amazing with my Frenchie Gus! She’s super communicative about how the walk went, and always super quick to respond. She always takes into consideration how hot it is with how far to walk. I love having her to help take care of Gus on days I work and he’s always happy as can be when I come home!”

About: I have been the go-to dog sitter for my family members’ and friends’ dogs for many years. I’m glad to help take out or walk your pup! I am currently self employed and work limited hours of my choosing, allowing me the flexibility and time to help your pet most days of the week. I am very hands on and attentive to all pets including my own. I am very mindful with their eating habits, I wipe their paws after being outside, and ensure they have water, play time and plenty of walks.
