House Sitting Mesa

“Rowena was so attentive to our fur babies and their needs. She is very athletic and appreciated the altheticism of our dogs. We felt very comfortable with her and we were able to disconnect completely during our vacation.”

“I am giving Rover.Com & Lisa 10+ STARS. Lisa loves animals. Our dog, Winston, had a good time with Scout (Lisa's puppy). They had a blast together. Winston is a Portuguese Water Dog (55 lbs) and loves people & other dogs. Winston stayed at Lisa's place, not at our home, because we were having our daughter's wedding in a destination place. Our home was far away, and we wanted Winston to go on the 5 hour drive with us and stay near by the wedding site. So, I went on Rover and asked to locate someone in Carpinteria. I found Lisa from Rover.Com living just up the road from the wedding site. Lisa took Winston and Scout to the beach, the park, everywhere and I do not think they were ever bored. Winston had a great time. Lisa always sent photos, and she always responded immediately if you text her. Our beach house rental did not allow pets, so Lisa was my rescue. Winston was just 8 minutes away from where we were staying. It was perfect. Breathtaking surroundings where Winston stayed. Winston and I thank you so very much. You made myself and my family feel comfortable leaving Winston with you while we were busy planning the wedding. You are the BEST. - nancy-”

“Ellie was amazing with my kitty and senior doggo. She listened with care to all of my care instructions, sent detailed updates everyday, and was so gentle and caring with my girls. My senior dog struggles with incontinence and some medical issues, and Ellie helped her with grace and empathy. She met all of their needs and more, spending time in the sun with the girls and and offering pets and cuddles. She was also super responsive and flexible when I had some flight delays impacting my return, and had my place clean and tidy upon my return. 11/10, would recommend!”

“Grace was an amazing dog sitter for us during our stay in Santa Barbara. It was our first time using Rover so we were not super prepared on our dog sitting directions, but she went above and beyond in asking us specific questions on the care of our dog and made sure to follow through on all directions that we’ve provided. She regularly sends updates of our dog and was quick to respond whenever we text her. We are very lucky to have Grace as our dog sitter and would recommend any dog parents to use her for their beloved pet(s).”

“There’s nothing like knowing your beloved Pet is being well cared for in your absence. This is absolutely imperative that I not worry about my dog while I’m out there trying to have fun! Jessa and Justin did exactly that: freed my mind up so I could enjoy my time away. They are kind and loving towards animals and sent me update pictures while I was away. They are a blessing.”

Sherrill V.

“Debra was great with my pup. Lots of photos, walks and very quick with communication. She took good care of my place as well. I'd have her watch my dog again.”

About: I’m calm, attentive, and dependable, and I treat every dog as an individual. I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and preferences so they can feel comfortable and secure while their people are away. I understand that good pet sitting is about more than feeding and walks—it’s about being a trustworthy presence in your home, following your instructions carefully, communicating clearly, and giving your dog plenty of companionship and attention. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I offer a complimentary Meet & Greet in your home before your first booking so we can get to know each other, go over your dog’s routine, and make sure we’re a good fit. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive overnight care while still maintaining my regular commitments. I’m an early riser, so morning walks, breakfast, and a little extra companionship are naturally part of my routine. During the day, I may step out for several hours, but I make sure each dog’s needs and comfort are prioritized. I’m happy to follow your dog’s usual routine as closely as possible so their time away from you feels familiar and relaxed. I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions carefully, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, play time, and their usual bedtime routine. I give dogs plenty of companionship and attention while also respecting their need for rest and space. I’ll keep your home tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and communicate promptly if anything seems unusual. My goal is for your dog to feel safe and settled—and for you to come home to a happy dog and a well-cared-for home.

“Joann was a great pet sitter and made me feel at ease leaving my pet!”

“Stefanny is a gem! I feel so lucky to have found her on Rover while visiting Santa Barbara this month. Stefanny took such good care of my kitty while I was away for the weekend. I felt at ease knowing my kitty and home were in caring hands, especially knowing that she is a cat mama herself. Stefanny's energy is very calming and she asked thoughtful questions about my kitty's routine. She sent me daily photos and updates throughout the weekend which was much appreciated. I arrived home to a spotless home and happy kitty. I highly recommend Stefanny!!”

“Cheryl stayed in our home with our active dog Kona while my husband and I were on vacation. We loved receiving pictures and updates of Kona while we were away. We returned home to a happy dog and beautifully well kept house. We are thrilled to have found Cheryl and would recommend her highly!”

About: I have been relied on by friends and neighbors to walk, feed, socialize, and love on their pups for the last five years! Experience with dogs began with my own dog on the ranch I grew up at and since have house sat, walked, and done daily check ins for dogs when life gets a bit too busy. I am a full time engineer, starting work at 4am during the week. Depending on my meeting schedule, daily evening and/or afternoon walks are perfect. Every couple of hour check ins generally fit in my schedule too. I am home fairly early in the evenings and can house sit most nights of the week (especially weekends). Whatever your pet’s standard routine is, I will match it! I attempt to not disrupt their daily lifestyle. Their usual sleeping arrangements, meal times, and exercise habits will be as normal.

“Simply put, Alyssa was awesome! She provided excellent care for my 8yo 100lb Swissy, Dax, and was attentive, quick to respond to emails and requests, and left our house spotless! No hesitations to have Alyssa help us out again! 5 stars!!”

“Breanna was great!! She kept our 12 year old maltipoo company while we were out for a few hours. Very sweet and friendly. I will definitely be using her again when I’m in town.”

Karla L.

“Leo was great! Took great care of our pups and chickens. Updated daily with photos of happy and safe dogs. We will definitely book Leo in the future!”

“Elizabeth did a great job taking care of our (very spirited) puppy while we were out of town. She was reliable and communicative and overall just a pleasure to deal with.”

About: I grew up with dogs and have loved having them in my life ever since. My family had Cocker Spaniels and Golden Retrievers, and later I adopted a mixed-breed dog of my own. Having my own dog taught me that every pup is different. Some are immediately affectionate and trusting, while others need a little more patience and time before they feel safe with someone new. I learned how important it is to pay attention to their cues, respect their boundaries, and let trust build naturally. I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s personality and making them feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while their person is away. I work remotely as a brand designer, so pet care fits very naturally into my everyday routine. I’m home throughout most of the day and already take regular breaks to get outside and walk, which means plenty of opportunities for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and attention. My schedule also gives me the flexibility to follow each dog’s usual routine as closely as possible. I know every dog has their own personality, boundaries, and routine, so I like to take the time to let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I follow the care instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, house rules, and any little routines that help your dog feel at home. When caring for a dog in my apartment, they’ll have a clean, comfortable, air-conditioned space and plenty of company since I work from home. When staying in a client’s home, I’m equally mindful and respectful of both their pet’s routine and their space. My goal is always for your dog to feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while you’re away.

“We just had Zoey stay at our house for three nights with our big dog - she was AMAZING! Flexible, thoughtful, punctual, communicative, respectful, responsible… The list goes on! She really went above and beyond, and totally exceeded our expectations. We felt so comfortable and relaxed being away, knowing that Zoey was going to be there with our girl. She’s a natural “dog person” too, very gentle and kind, caring for our dog like she was her own. We will be eager to have her back whenever we leave town next! Thank you, Zoey!”

“We had a sudden family emergency and needed someone on very short notice to dogsit for our two German Shepherds in our home. Dario stepped in and was truly wonderful. We left him with a long (and honestly complicated) list of instructions... different routines, special feeding details, and one of our dogs had wounds on her paw that needed regular care. Dario handled everything exactly as asked and didn’t seem fazed at all. He took great care of both dogs, kept a close eye on the injured paw, and sent us daily updates and photos. That communication made such a difference. During a really hard week for our family, we didn’t have to worry about the dogs, we knew they were in good hands. We had an unexpected guest and 3rd dog show up a few days in, and he handled that calmly and with a great attitude, even helping the dogs get introduced and used to one another. We’re very grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to book Dario again.”

About: I have cared for pets most of my life and am a true animal lover. I have experience with dogs, cats and horses and would love to make your pets day special. I am currently taking time off work and when I am in town my schedule is very flexible. I definitely have the ability to tailor my day to your pet’s needs. I am reliable, and trustworthy and if I am in your home or elsewhere will be sure to follow any special instructions you have for your pet.

“Lana was very attentive and easy to work with. Got plenty of pics of my pup having the best time at home and around town! Exactly the kind of care I'd hoped he'd get”
