House Sitting Lemon Grove

“Stephanie did a great job house sitting for us on short notice. The dogs, the cat, and the house were all well taken care of. We got updates and photos daily and felt comfortable right from our meet and greet. We'd definitely book again!”

About: Hello my name is Marie! I am a 25 year old college student, I have 5 pets of my own that I love dearly. I have lots of experience with animals. I grew up helping my grandmother care for rescue kittens and foster kittens. I would often help with socializing them. I would assist my grandmother with bottle feeding kittens anywhere from a couple weeks old to when they start weaning off of bottles. Through out my life I have had many different kinds of animals. (Dogs, cats, rats, snakes, hermit crabs, fish, tarantulas, etc.) also in 2024 I had an internship with the San Diego zoo and Wildlife alliance. I worked with the birds and I would clean enclosures, clean any dishes or appliances used for the different kinds of bird feed, I also would make the birds different enrichment every day. I have a huge passion and love for all animals with all of that said, I promise to care for your beloved furry family members in the most respectful, caring and loving manner. Please consider my support and assistance! I often have free time and I am willing to help any day of the week or weekend at any time. Every Friday I have an appointment, but with enough notice in advance I can do Fridays. Due to having my own animals and roommates. I would be unable to care for your pets in my own home. I am willing to travel and care for your pets in the comfort of their own home. I am also willing to meet before any planned pet sitting days so you can get to know me and decide if you are comfortable and want to move forward.

“Julie is so amazing! She is well versed in dog behavior which is vital and a true asset. My dogs are better behaved when I return then they were when I left them.”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable, attentive dog lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes working with Border Collies and Great Pyrenees in a ranch setting, where they herded and guarded sheep, as well as providing professional care at a busy dog daycare. I also have extensive experience caring for large-breed family dogs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, young, or a senior, I believe every pet deserves patience, consistency, and individualized care. My goal is to make every walk or visit a positive experience so you can have complete peace of mind knowing your best friend is safe, happy, and well cared for. Thanks for stopping by my profile! I work part-time caring for dogs professionally, so spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy every day. I’m available all day on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays. I may also be available on my workdays depending on my schedule. I appreciate at least 24 hours’ notice whenever possible so I can plan my day and give your pet the time and attention they deserve. Whether your companion is energetic and playful or prefers a slower pace, I’m happy to tailor my care to their individual personality and routine. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! One of my favorite parts of pet care is getting to know each animal’s unique personality, communication style, and routines so they feel comfortable and understood. Every dog is different, so my first priority is building trust. When we first meet, I give each dog the time and space they need while I observe their personality, body language, and comfort level. From there, I adjust my approach to match what helps them feel safe and confident. I believe in treating every dog with kindness, respect, and clear boundaries. I use positive reinforcement—including praise, encouragement, and treats when appropriate—to reinforce good behavior. Rather than relying on punishment, I focus on redirecting unwanted behaviors and setting dogs up for success in a calm, consistent way. Whether we’re playing at home or out on a walk, safety always comes first. I enjoy interactive play while maintaining a safe environment, and I tailor each walk to the individual dog. Some dogs are happiest walking calmly at my side, while others enjoy taking the lead, and I’m happy to adapt to what is safest and most comfortable for them. My goal is simple: to make every dog feel secure, understood, and genuinely excited to spend time with me. When I enter a dog’s home, I remember that I’m stepping into their familiar space. My first priority is helping them feel safe and comfortable with my presence. I allow each dog to approach at their own pace, paying close attention to their body language and personality so I can build trust before asking anything of them. Once a dog is comfortable, I love engaging them through safe, interactive play that matches their energy level and preferences. Whether it’s a game of fetch, tug, enrichment activities, or simply relaxing together, my goal is to provide both physical exercise and positive companionship while maintaining clear, consistent boundaries. I strive to leave every dog feeling secure, respected, and excited to see me again. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is not only well cared for, but genuinely enjoying our time together. I don’t expect dogs to adapt to me—I adapt to the dog while providing clear, consistent boundaries.

“Tiffany was great! She was communicative, sent us videos and pictures and made sure to keep us up to date with how Pete was doing. This is our first time having Pete stay home with a sitter and it was so much less stress for him and us! We would use her again for sure!”

“This woman is AMAZING. She has been nothing but kind while I have a lot going on and needed help with my girls. They have lost so much training due to personal medical issues for me / also my dogs, and she stepped right up to help me. Her patience with my girls is amazing and I can tell they just love her. Victoria knows exactly how to work with dogs and handle them perfectly. Will definitely book again if she is interested.”

Sidney K.

“Alexis was amazing! I've always done check-ins and never used house-sitting, and Alexis was so helpful and responsive during the booking process, along with the meet-and-greet and planning process. She also communicated frequently during my trip, and as a bonus, she made a gorgeous drawing of my sweet pup, and left it as a surprise. My next house/pet sitter WILL be her!”

Erin S.

“Jack is SO GREAT. One of my dogs is a mean little barky boy, and Jack was so patient with him. After a few hours, my dog became so comfortable with Jack he was laying in his lap, demanding belly rubs. Since, I’ve had Jack back again to watch the dogs, and he’s a great houseguest. Very courteous, so responsible, and great at communicating. My pups can’t wait to have him back!”

“Janet was a wonderful sitter for padfoot! She stayed with her all day, played fetch, took her outback, took her for walks, and was wonderful to any specifications I requested. She constantly sent me pictures to see how much fun paddy was having and picture texts relieved me of any worries I would of had except for knowing she was in great hands. You should not hesitate to book Janet for any dog services you need! Will book again! Thanks Janet!”

“Keera was great to have stay with Luna. Lots of photos and updates. Came home to a happy dog and clean house. Look forward to having her stay again.”

Leanne K.

“Kirsten is AMAZING! I was super nervous to leave my kitty alone for several days because he is used to having someone at home all the time but she was so understanding and so flexible with her schedule so she could really make sure his routines weren’t interrupted and that we felt comfortable being away. She sent check ins and pictures as well as taking extra time to pet him and play with him and overall just made it such a positive experience and really took my worries away. I can’t recommend enough!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life. My family has a lovably big German shepherd and two little poms who we love. When I lived with my parents, I frequently walked and fed all three dogs. As well as administered meds to my senior poms. All types of animals, especially dogs and cats make me very happy and I love to show my appreciation to them for that. Helping anyone care for their furry friends would be an honor and gift. All pets deserve love, attention, care, and loads of playtime fun! I’m new to Rover and I work part time as a server at a sushi restaurant. On my days off, I would love to help care for pets. Please contact me directly for accurate availability, as my weekly schedule varies. However a typical week may look like: Tuesdays - 8 am - 10 pm available for walks, drop ins Wednesdays - 8 am - 10 pm available for walks, drop ins Sundays and Mondays : 8 am - 12 pm available for walks , drop ins (note: all late hour bookings are tentative to client/sitter previous trust building and confidence. Before booking any past dusk appointments, I respectfully request to build a rapport with the client through repeated earlier timed bookings beforehand.) In my home I have two friendly cats. They have experience with dogs and other cats as well. They don’t cause problems with other animals. Going to a clients home, I am willing to care for an animal however is requested. I’d love to play with, walk, feed, etc, and do drop ins.

About: I have watched my friends pets as well as neighbors and I love taking walks as well as lots of cuddles and car rides and get pup cups if the owner allows it. I absolutely adore animals so you won’t have to worry about your pet getting enough attention. I have weekends free and I have time after school for walks or to house sit pretty much any days. Can’t wait to meet your fur babies I have a fenced in yard and room for them to play and a friendly neighborhood to take your pets on walks and I have roommates so guaranteed your pet will be getting plenty of cuddles.

“Kris is the most wonderful kitty sitter and house sitter imaginable! This is our second time having Kris stay at our home for an extended period of time while we were out of town. Having her take care of the kitties and the house while we were away for 2-weeks brought us so much peace of mind and allowed us to relax and unwind without any worries. She sent daily photos and videos and kept me posted on all pertinent details each day. She's extremely patient and flexible and went out of her way to find a solution to help my two picky eaters eat their wet food. She also did an amazing job keeping them entertained with lots of playtime. We returned home to two very happy and content kitties and a spotless house. She's an absolute gem and we are so grateful for her help! Kris will always be our go-to house sitter anytime we travel.”

“Sarah was an excellent dog and house sitter. We left for 10 days and felt completely comfortable and at ease with Sarah being with our two dogs. She provided regular updates, gave them snuggles, played with them and was great watering our plants while we were away to keep the house nice. Our dogs love her so it was a match made in heaven!”

“Lily was amazing with our Aussie, Sully! Our minds were completely at ease knowing he was well taken care of with her. Would absolutely love to book again in the future!”
