About: I've been around animals my whole life and truly consider pets to be part of the family. Growing up, I cared for our family dog (Shadow) and several cats (Sarah, Barney, Mishu, Josie). During college in New York, I had my own dog (Zazu), and I currently have a cat (Nicolette) in San Diego. Living with both dogs and cats has given me experience with their different personalities, routines, and needs. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or simply wants companionship and affection, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I'll care for them with the same attention and kindness I give my own. Until recently, I worked as a school teacher, where I learned to be dependable, patient, and attentive to the needs of others. Since I'm currently between jobs, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide reliable, individualized care for your pets. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, or simply someone to keep them company, I'll make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I'm available throughout the week and can adapt to your pet's routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. I believe every pet is happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I'll do my best to care for them the way you do. I'll follow any instructions you provide for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or other routines to make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable. When caring for your pet in your home, I'll treat both your pet and your home with the utmost respect. I'll clean up after myself, leave your home just as I found it, and make sure everything is tidy before I leave. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a home that feels exactly as you left it.

“Armando has gone above and beyond everything I hoped to find through Rover. He has taken Shelby out to socialize and has shown her so much kindness, patience, and genuine care. I feel completely comfortable knowing she is safe and in excellent hands with him. I’m truly grateful we found Armando and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their dog!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and small pets since childhood and have 7 years of formal pet/house-sitting experience in San Diego, including daily walks, medication administration, and senior-pet care. I’m calm, punctual, and used to following detailed routines and owner instructions while keeping homes clean and secure. As a certified calisthenics trainer and wellness coach I bring stamina for long walks, reliable energy for active dogs, and a respectful, low-impact presence in homes; I’m happy to provide references and a video call before booking. My schedule is flexible, and I can give pets consistent care throughout the day. I’m usually available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, with enough time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. I prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, respect home rules, and make sure pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and caring for animals. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they were away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I’m available most days of the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for pets at all times. I have a fenced yard and always pay close attention during walks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets are comfortable and secure. I also understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each owner’s routine and instructions.

About: I've been walking and sitting dogs for over nine years now, and it's something I absolutely love. My experience includes owning some larger, powerful breeds like German Shepherds, Great Danes, and English Mastiffs, so I'm very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Currently, I have a Belgian Malinois, which means I'm well-versed in providing the kind of structured exercise and mental stimulation that high-energy dogs need to thrive. Pet care is a big part of my daily and weekly routine, especially with a Belgian Malinois! Every morning starts with a good walk or run to burn off some energy, followed by feeding. Throughout the day, there are potty breaks, training sessions, and playtime. Evenings usually involve another walk and some quiet cuddle time. On a weekly basis, I make sure to schedule grooming, vet check-ups if needed, and dedicated time for more intensive training or enrichment activities to keep things interesting. It's all about consistency and making sure they're happy and healthy! When I care for pets, whether it's in my home or a client's, the main goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. This usually means sticking to their regular feeding schedule, giving them their meds if needed, and making sure they get plenty of exercise and playtime. I also pay close attention to their behavior, looking for any signs of discomfort or illness, and keep in touch with the owner to give them updates and peace of mind.

“Vanessa is absolutely amazing. She is extremely accommodating and has not once said no to helping me out even if it’s a few hours before. She takes the best care of my puppy Lucy and always goes above and beyond for her walks as well as sending me the cutest pictures during. I highly recommend her to anyone nearby!!!!”

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies learning the basics to senior pups who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic puppy training, including potty and crate routines, leash manners, and basic commands, and I’m happy to follow whatever training methods you use at home. I also have plenty of experience with senior dogs and understand the importance of adjusting walks, playtime, and daily routines to their individual mobility, energy level, and needs. I’m experienced in caring for multiple pets at once and managing different personalities, feeding schedules, walks, and routines. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else; they’re part of the family and I’ll always treat them with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’m currently training and teaching jiu jitsu classes which allows me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. Im able to build my schedule around your pets specific needs or energy levels and love going for little adventures to the park, beach, or where ever your pets favorite spot is! I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m clean, tidy, and mindful of your space while making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their normal routine. For overnight or multi-night stays, my dog Lola does need to accompany me. She is a sweet, senior Rat Terrier who is accustomed to being around other pets. I typically provide daily photos and updates but am happy to provide whatever makes you comfortable in knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Finding a dog walker while I worked night shift over the holidays seemed almost impossible but Lisa came to the rescue and I am so thankful!! She sent lots of pictures and updates from her walks with my pup and I felt very confident in her caring for him. I would highly recommend her to anyone and I know Winston is looking forward to more walks with her in the future!”

“Bedrana has been walking my dog most days of the week while I’m at work and it has been such a good experience! She is awesome at communication and gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away that my dog is taken care of! She is very flexible with scheduling too and my dog seems well exercised when I get home! Definitely recommend booking with her :)”

About: Proud parent of a rescue. I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 13 years old. I am available to walk, run or care for all types of dogs. I am currently working part time and available from 11:30 . I am available to pick up dogs for walks or host them if needed. Provide a comfortable and safe environment. Maintain a consistent feeding schedule. Take dogs for daily walks and outdoor playtime. Set up designated play areas for pets. Keep their water bowls filled and clean. Provide appropriate toys for mental stimulation.

About: I will tailor the love and care for your pet based on his or her behavior and personality. I have both a senior dog and a pup, so there’s a huge range of personalities in between both. My senior dog requires at least an hour inside then wants his own time in the yard as for the pup he requires a lot of exercise and then nap time in the couch. Let me know your fur baby ‘s personality and I’ll be sure to accommodate. At my home you have the option to be completely outside or inside, we have cement and grass and lots of fruit trees for them to smell and explore. I would prefer for your dog to be potty trained in advanced if he or she requires to be inside.

“Rachel and the kids send me the best pics loving up on Phoenix. It always brightens my day. Phoenix loves them all. I always look forward to reading Rachel’s reviews !!!!”
