“Royce was well taken care of throughout the day. Paige stopped by at our planned intervals throughout the day and provided relevant updates. When we got home Royce was happy to see us, but also seemed content after his day with Paige. Thank you, Paige!”


About: I’m mama to four crazy cats: Mark, Quid, Star, and Wally. They’re the most recent squad in a long line of kitties ( + one doggy!) that came before. I’m very comfortable around sassy pets, as well as ones with special diets or medication needs. I took care of my Delia doggy for 3 years, with all her rambunctious walks and homemade meals. I’m currently working part-time evenings in La Mesa, typically 3:00p-8:30p at the most. I am off work and completely free on Mon/Tue/, but I am available throughout the week to drop-in and housesit, provided I can fit it around my work schedule. I’m very flexible! I’m ready to handle any special dietary requirements (including cooking), as well as medication needs. I’m comfortable with crating dogs and/or banishing cats to a certain part of the residence. I have a bunch of little escape artists, so I’m always careful to account for everyone and keep the space organized.
“Cristen did a wonderful job. This was my first time doing Rover and I was anxious about it but she made it such a great experience. I also Can en back to a house that was in even better state than when I left it. The dogs loved her as well. She clearly loves dogs and knows what she’s doing. 10/10 would highly recommend. I plan to use her next time I need a sitter.”

About: I have always loved animals. When I was nine years old I found 5 puppies under a shed - without a mother. I carried them home to get them to a safe environment. I brought many lost dogs and cats home. I am also American Red Cross CPR certified for dogs and cats. Your dog or cat is a very important member of your family !! I will do everything necessary to keep them safe in my care. I retired from nursing and teaching January 2026. I spend time with my grandchildren but looking to spend more time with dogs and/or cats. I have a flexible schedule. I have a friendly dog Noway and live in an apartment with my husband Mark. We also have a dog park close by. Noway is a gentle sweet dog. He loves people and dogs.
“Sage was WONDERFUL! My little fur baby can be quite the handful (she’s very hyperactive), and Sage was so great with her! She constantly sent me pictures and assurances that my dog was doing great while I was away. She definitely helped ease the worry I had from being away from my baby!”

“Brooke was absolutely wonderful!!! Leaving our 7-year-old Japanese Akita with someone new was a big decision for us, but Brooke exceeded all of our expectations. She took the time to build trust with Eoshi, and it was clear from her updates that she genuinely cared about his well-being. When we returned home, Eoshi was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. He ate well, enjoyed plenty of walks, and seemed completely comfortable with Brooke. We were especially happy to see that they developed such a great bond while we were away. Brooke also took exceptional care of our home. Everything was spotless when we returned, and she even started a load of laundry with the bed linens before leaving, which was such a thoughtful gesture. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely trust Brooke with Eoshi again in the future. Highly recommend!”

“Lara cared for our dogs for the first time this weekend, and we were so impressed by her. She managed our 3 high-maintenance dogs without a problem and we came home to a happy and relaxed group! (And a very clean house). She will be our go-to sitter moving forward. Don’t hesitate to book her!”

“Brandy was amazing with our dogs and definitely took the stress out of leaving them home while traveling! Not only is she a fantastic pet sitter, we came home to a sparkling house, bed linens washed, and the trash taken out. She definitely goes above and beyond and we will definitely will be using her services again!”

About: With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats, I’ve worked with breeds of all sizes and personalities—from Rottweilers, Mastiffs and Pit Bulls to French Bulldogs, Australian Shepherds, English Bulldogs and many others. I have a special passion for working with dogs that others may be hesitant to care for, including large breeds, strong personalities and reactive or misunderstood dogs. As someone who understands the challenges of owning these incredible pets, I provide patient, confident and compassionate care without judgment. To me, pets are family and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m experienced in caring for senior pets and those with special needs, including administering medications, following detailed care instructions and maintaining consistent feeding and medication schedules. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, aging or simply needs extra attention I’m committed to providing a safe, loving and reliable experience while you’re away. I’m available for 30–60 minute midday drop-in visits on weekdays, as well as after 4:30 PM on weekdays. I’m available all day on weekends. My weekday schedule is somewhat flexible and I’m happy to work with clients to accommodate their pets’ needs whenever possible. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with your beloved pet is a big decision. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs and any special instructions to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I’ll provide plenty of love, attention, playtime and companionship while ensuring your home remains clean, secure and exactly as you left it. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands.
“Alicia was a top-notch dog sitter. She sent us so many wonderful, high-quality photos of our dog Goldie, which was most appreciated! She was an excellent communicator. I felt like Goldie was in good hands, and I highly recommend her!”

“Emily did a great job with our dogs for a week over the Christmas holiday. She provided daily photo updates and cleaner the room and bathroom she stayed in before we returned. We are appreciative of her care and attention to Rosie and Wesley!”

“Anna took great care of Buddy and constantly shared pictures and updates that kept me at ease. Buddy clearly loved his time with Anna and we will definitely be working with her again! Very grateful for her ❤️”

“Mackenzie was an excellent house sitter for our Aussie while we were out of town for a few days. She was very communicative, took numerous photos, and gave our pup much love and attention. Would definitely recommend!”


“Kristyn clearly cares about her job. From the initial meet and greet she was very attentive and asked a lot of great questions. She was super on top of communicating during the stay and showed a true care for our little ones. I would definitely recommend her services!”
About: Doggy Mama of 10 years for my sweet Wheaten Terrier, Suki! I have been with her for all stages of life: curious puppy, energetic teenager, and mellow adult. This has taught me how to adjust towards whatever needs your pet may have. No matter the attention your furry friend needs— whether it be downtime and cuddles, or zoomies and long walks— I am here to provide! I can administer medication, and will easily adapt to the schedule/routine that your pet requires. I am a sophomore student at San Diego State University, majoring in Criminal Justice. I have classes Monday-Thursday starting at 12:00pm and ending by 4:00pm. I live on campus and have a car so transportation is not an issue. I am able to pet sit at anytime throughout the week that I don’t have classes- and am willing to stay over night and/or through the weekends. Caring for your companion will vary depending on personality and routine but there are definitely some core principles that I carry with me. First one being respect— respect of your home, respect of your animals needs and wants, and respect of your time. I will be present as much as I can be, even if that means just sitting in the same room as them. Another core value, depending on your pet, is exercise. It doesn’t matter if it’s a long walk, a short and slow walk, or even just interacting with toys— something that gets them moving and keeps them entertained. And a big one is love, I promise to absolutely adore your animal and show them kindness in whatever ways they need. That could look like self care: brushing their coat, massaging stiff joints. That could look like affection: rubbing on them, talking to them, and making sure they know i’m here for them. And that could also mean giving them space. Any adjustment that I can make to give you and your pet a smooth experience, I would love to do.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 15 years. I love the joy they bring to others. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I would love to help care for your dog, whether it’s sitting or walking. I am pursuing pet care full time so my schedule is flexible for walks and pet sitting. I will work with you to make sure your dog is taken care of and happy! I am very thorough in making sure every pet has a safe and comfortable space. I have a friendly dog of my own and can bring him along if your pet wants a play buddy!

Paige was absolutely incredible. She house sat for my sister and our dogs. One super high energy, one a little more temperamental and needing lots of love. She met both of their needs so well. They immediately loved her upon meeting. Paige also was incredible communicative and flexible with our schedules. She provided regular updates and adjusted quickly when one of our dogs needed medicine daily unexpectedly. Would absolutely recommend Paige!!

From the moment I met Rhonda, I knew she would be a great fit for our pets. She asked thoughtful questions and brought a calm demeanor that our dog responded well to. She communicated while we were away. When we got home, our pets were calm and happy. Lovely to work with!

Lauren was great to work with. She came and did a meet and greet prior to watching our doggie, which was so helpful to show her our dog's daily routine and get them comfortable with each other. She gave updates throughout the day and some photos which I loved. Hoping to use her again very soon!

Sarah always takes such good care of my boys . they truly do love her . i was updated every morning and throughout the day on how there night went and what they did throughout the day . it was really nice to get updates on my boys . i always feel safe leaving my boys with hers and honestly my boys are always happy .

Anna was the absolute sweetest with our pups! We loved getting updates and photos during her stay, and especially appreciated how she took the time to get to know each of their personalities and would report back on their individual quirks and how they were doing. You could tell when we returned that they were happy, not stressed, and had been very well cared for. We’re so glad to have found Anna and would rebook with her again without hesitation.

Maureen has taken care of our fur babies and few times now. We wouldn't trust anyone else to do so now. Our two dogs get so excited when they see her. They know there will be extra walks, lots of attention, and plenty of snuggles. She spoils our kitties! They love her and know she loves them too. We love the twice a day reports and pictures! We know you will too.

Crystal was terrific with our 2 dogs - I think they were disappointed when we came home. This is our first time using Rover, and Crystal had positive reviews from other pet owners, and we can't agree more. She was friendly and accommodating with us, and she had a genuine enthusiasm and affinity with our dogs. During our trip, she sent texts, photos, and videos. Our minds were eased as we saw how happy our dogs were with her. We were able to relax and enjoy our short vacation knowing that they were safe and genuinely well-cared for by Crystal.

Mariah was truly amazing. I was gone for 5 days and my dog started coughing seriously the 3rd day. She kept me informed by text including video, and, on her own contacted the Rover veterinarian (I didn't now there is one!) for advice which was very helpful. We ultimately decided she should take him to Urgent Care which she did willingly. She sat with the vet while they called me on the phone and she made very clear notes for me to use on my return. Mariah was up with Joey in the middle of the night for two nights - and after visiting Urgent Care, she gave him medicine at 3AM. And, when I talked to her, she seemed much more concerned with interrupting my vacation than that she was losing sleep and having to do more than expected. She sounded so loving to Joey the entire time - and thought her way through a number of possibilities to relieve Joey's distress. AND when she left, she had washed the sheets and towels and the house was as clean as when I left. I could not have expected more from anyone. She was absolutely terrific - and I am so grateful.
So grateful for you Isabella, thank you so much for helping me out with my Rosey girl. Isabella came through for me last minute, was always on time, very respectful, sent me updates, and rosey was so happy to have her. Please don’t hesitate when thinking about booking her for her services. Class act, very professional.

Milla did a wonderful job watching over my two elderly dogs. She was very friendly, quick to respond and sent me photo updates which I greatly appreciated. It’s always nice to feel at ease leaving town knowing your pet is in good hands and Milla did just that for me. I would highly recommended Milla and her services!

Olivia was a fantastic pup and house sitter. She watched my rambunctious Australian shepherd for a few days while I was out of town. Olivia is a great communicator and a very experienced dog sitter. Also left my house in great shape for my return. Definitely recommend.
