Pet care experience

PAMPERED PETS! Your place or mine?

Peaceful environment for your pet. I've loved animals all my life. I've had a pet since I was 3 years old. I own 2 cats. To me animals are like people and family. I am a recently retired public school teacher. I bond and love all the animals I take care of. I have all the time in the world to take care of your pet. I would love to take walks with your dog or sit with your cat. I love to pamper them and make them feel safe. I live on a one-story apartment building. It is 2 blocks from the park and ocean. There are 2 dog parks in the North Beach Oceanside Beach Park located only 2 blocks from where I live. We will take walks in the park and runs in the dog park, if you agree of course. If you are looking for lengthy stay (3 weeks or more), please contact me and we can arrange a better daily rate, especially for cats and small and medium dogs. My schedule is I am a semi-retired older adult. I have time to take care of your pet. I have time to take care of your pets because I work part-time from home. I take your pet on an average of 4 walks per day. Two longer walks, usually early morning and at sunset. Two smaller walks for breaks. If this is appealing to you, please let me know.

Lourdes provided an exceptional boarding experience for my cat! From the moment I dropped her off, I could tell she was in a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. Lourdes is incredibly professional and has a natural way with animals, which instantly put my mind at ease. Throughout my cat’s stay, Lourdes kept me updated with sweet photos and messages, showing how happy and relaxed she was. When I picked her up, she was calm, well-fed, and clearly well cared for—like she’d been on her own little vacation! I’m so grateful for the incredible care Lourdes provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for cat boarding. She truly treats each cat like her own. Thank you, Lourdes, for making this such an stress-free experience!

Always a pleasure having Lourdes sit for my little guy. She takes such good care of him and provides great updates and pics/videos which is very important to me.

Hoards multiple animal stays at once not giving proper care to individual pets. My cat was left without proper food or water from what my Veterinarian ($1500 vet bill) says was at least 14 days. My cat is currently hospitalized from dehydration & malnourishment as a direct result of the sitter. Felt like a neglectful foster care home. I’m furious. Couldn’t recommend the sitter or Rover as a whole.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. My preference is for breeds that enjoy nature and the beach.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
