Dog Walking La Mesa

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me for years to take care of their pets. I love spending time with animals and treat them as if they are my own. I have experience taking care of senior dogs and cats. All of my Drop-Ins include a walk if needed! Let me know what your pet needs! I work part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I also stay in town most holidays. I do my best to accommodate your schedule needs. I can care for pets in their homes. Keeping them in a familiar environment will keep them calm and happy! I will care for them as if they were my own!

About: Pets Are The Greatest Gift Bestowed Upon Mankind. They Were My Only Reason To Live On Numerous Occasions. I Am The Definition Of An Animal Enthusiast. I Would Love To Build Authentic Relationships With My Clients And Their Furry Friends And To Be Someone They Can Trust For Years Down The Line. I currently have open availability. I can operate on both short and long term notice. Animals take priority in my life over human affairs. Lol At the moment, I cannot offer services at my own home, but I’m looking to move into a pet friendly area shortly. I provide care in the client’s home by following the pet’s normal routine and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while the owner is away. I would provide fresh food and water, walks and exercise, playtime, snuggles, bathroom breaks, and cleaning up after the pet. I would obviously follow any specific feeding, medication, or behavioral instructions provided by the owner. I treat the client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own, keep things clean and secure, and communicate with the owner regularly with updates and photos.

“Adrian was amazing! I needed a walk for my dog ASAP and Adrian was quick to reply! I am so thankful for her help. She took great care of my dog. I will defiantly be rescheduling with her again.”

About: I was raised by veterinarian and trained to love and care for different animals. I currently own a dog and cat and my goal is to give pets the best time in this world! I am a freelancer so I have a flexible schedule that helps me take care of my pets and others people pets. I take my dog to dog parks and long walks which can work for other high energy dogs I take care of other people pets like they are my own. Trust for me is very important and it’s a priority as well as making sure my clients feel good leaving their pets on my hands.

About: I’ve been caring for pets through Rover since 2021 alongside my business partner, whose established account was used for our bookings. She no longer lives here, so I’m now building my own Rover profile. • • • I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, energy levels, and personalities and enjoy getting to know what makes each dog comfortable. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow any special instructions or routines your dog needs. • • • ***I welcome dogs of many sizes; puppies and larger dogs are considered case-by-case to ensure the right fit. A meet & greet is required for first-time boarding guests.*** I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day for frequent potty breaks, supervised yard time, walks, play, and attention. Since I only host one dog at a time, I can adjust the day around your dog’s normal routine, energy level, and preferences. I host one dog at a time in a calm home with no resident pets or children and a fully fenced yard. Dogs are never left outside unattended. Before a first stay, I prefer a brief Meet & Greet so I can learn about your dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs and make sure everyone is comfortable.

About: Hi, I'm Eda! I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My grandpa had a beautiful farm in Temecula, where I grew up helping care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, ducks, and even one very mean buck. From an early age, I also looked after my neighbors' pets, and I loved every minute of it. My family is from Turkey, where there's a deep appreciation for animals, especially dogs and cats. In my culture, animals are considered part of the family, and that's exactly how I've always treated them. That mindset has stayed with me throughout my life. I'm the friend who always finds the pet at the party, stops to admire every dog on a walk (with permission, of course), and can't resist saying hello to my neighborhood cat. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I'll care for them with patience, attention, and lots of affection. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in kind, reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and work part-time from home. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care, whether they need regular walks, playtime, feeding, enrichment, or simply some extra companionship throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I work from home part-time, giving me flexibility to provide attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and crate preferences. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: Before officially becoming a pet sitter, I had many years of taking care of my family’s dog as well as my extended family’s dog. I have over two years of being a Rover sitter in New York, and about a year in San Francisco. I am happy to be transitioning to San Diego Rover. I have had over 20 dogs for overnight bookings, as well as a few cats, when I was in NY. Many of them became recurring clients and we formed really sweet bonds. I currently live in La Mesa and sometimes visit Encinitas area as well the occasional visits to Bend, Oregon. I value honesty & kind communication. I have a deep sense of responsibility for taking care of animals. I’m happy to also keep you updated on your pet’s activity with photos of it all so that you know they are comfortable, safe and well-cared for. I can provide photo updates upon arrival, during our time together, and just before leaving. I currently freelance as a working artist and performer so my schedule is variable based on contractual work. Nonetheless, I do have significant pockets of time to care for pets throughout the week. It's important to me that each walk is safe from beginning to end, so your dog will be greeted with care and awareness. The key is they feel secure with me throughout their experience by being properly leashed and actively listening to their needs as they arise.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, including rescue fostering and caring for animals who need a little extra patience, understanding, and love. Our family has welcomed countless foster animals over the years, including our two foster fails, our sweet senior pup Stinky and our cat Smouse. ❤️ I’m home full-time, so your pet gets plenty of companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day rather than being left alone for long stretches. Our home features a large, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play, along with a covered patio and plenty of comfortable places to relax. Dogs have full access to our home and are not routinely crated or confined to a separate room. We believe dogs should feel like they are on vacation, not simply being boarded. Your dog will be part of our normal family routine, with plenty of opportunities for play, cuddles, relaxation, and attention throughout the day. Every dog is different, so we follow their lead. Whether they are a social butterfly who wants to play or a quieter pup who would rather curl up beside us, we make sure they feel comfortable. Rescue Experience Means Extra Patience and Understanding. Fostering rescue animals has taught us that not every pet arrives feeling confident and comfortable in a new environment. We are especially mindful of nervous, shy, or sensitive dogs and give them the time and space they need to settle in. We pay close attention to body language and individual boundaries, and we never expect a dog to immediately feel at home. Our goal is to earn their trust and help them feel safe. After all, they are not just staying at our house. They are staying with our family. 🐾 We would love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family member! As a stay-at-home mom of three, I’m available to offer morning, afternoon, and evening drop-in services. I’m also home most of the time to care for our overnight guests. My husband, a fellow animal lover, works from home half the week and is often present as well. We live with our three kids, ages 10, 9, and 7, who are just as excited to welcome your furry family member! I provide an extra-large, fully fenced backyard to ensure your dog’s safety and comfort. Your pup will have unlimited access to our home (and couches!), which they’ll share with our two elderly dogs and cat. If you prefer, I can crate your dog when I leave. I also have gates to separate your pet from ours, in the rare instance that no one is home. As a walking and drop-in provider, I will ensure your pet is always leashed and secured. I will promptly pick up and dispose of their waste, provide constant access to fresh water, and feed them according to their specific needs. Your pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities!

About: I've grown up around animals and can confidently care for any pet. I volunteer at my local Humane Society, walking multiple dogs daily—I'm ready for walks of any length! I also have experience with house-sitting and helping dogs socialize. I’m very patient on walks and love working on leash training, always taking the time to help each dog feel comfortable, confident, and safe. I’m currently working part time during the week (M/W/F/Sa). My Sundays are completely free, please contact me about specific times during the week! I’m not interested in taking care of pets at my home, however I have no problem with commuting and taking care of your pets to meet whatever requirements they need.

“Ziggy loved his walk with Adam! He was also right on time and very easy to communicate with. Will definitely have him take care of Ziggy again!”

About: Hi, I’m Rhonda! I’ve had dogs and cats in my life for as long as I can remember, and I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable with the person caring for your pets while you’re away. I offer house sitting, boarding, and drop-in care for both dogs and cats. I enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and routine and providing care that feels familiar and reassuring to them. I’m experienced with senior pets and oral medications. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I do my own. I work part-time primarily from home, so I’m able to spend most of the day with the pets in my care. I may occasionally be away for a few hours for appointments, errands, or evening commitments, but I’m home the majority of the time and can provide plenty of companionship and attention. For boarding, I accept pets from only one family at a time so they can have a quieter, more relaxed stay with plenty of individual attention. I have two resident cats, Gizmo and Truffle, so dogs staying in my home need to be comfortable around cats. For in-home pet sitting, I’m happy to help keep things running smoothly while you’re away. I can bring in mail and packages, put trash and recycling bins out and bring them back in, water plants, and take care of other small household tasks as needed. I’ll also send regular photo updates and reach out if I have any questions or concerns.

“Alex was amazing with our dog, Tuna! He’s actually dog sat and dog walked Tuna many times and always is so wonderful with her. She can be a little more high maintenance with some eye issues and needing medications, and he always handles her so well. She loves seeing him and is always so excited when he dog sits for her. 10/10 would recommend, he is the best and we always feel so at ease when he takes care of Tuna!!”

“Andrew has been amazing for our two dogs! When he says he can handle high energy dogs he truly means it! Our dogs go running with him during the week, and I’ve never seen them so happy. He communicates well and often, and has been very accommodating. 1000% recommend and will continue to ask him to take care of our pups!”
