Allison was wonderful! Very communicative and came home to a very happy, tired pup and tidy house. Felt very at ease knowing my dog was being cared for by her while away. So happy to have found her!

Kaitie was the best sitter! I’m so happy we found her and booked her. We already have future trips booked with her. I’m an anxious dog mom with an anxious dog haha and Kaitie blew it out of the park. She was very communicative, stayed home with our pup a lot, walked him a ton, and sent so many photos. She also cleaned up the apartment after her stay. Highly recommend✨

About: Back in the Netherlands, I grew up surrounded by animals and have always loved caring for them. My family had a flat-coated retriever, a golden retriever, two cats, a rabbit, and fish, so being around pets has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I have experience helping train dogs and caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going for a walk, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company. Since moving to San Diego, I really miss having animals around, which is why Rover feels like such a great fit for me. I would love to give your pet the same care, attention, and affection I would give my own. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of time, attention, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and keeping pets company depending on their routine and needs. I understand that every pet has their own schedule, so I’m happy to follow your instructions closely, whether that means specific walk times, feeding routines, medication reminders, or extra cuddles and attention. I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. In a client’s home, I will follow your instructions carefully and respect your space, your pet’s routine, and any house rules. I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, water, and any special care instructions are handled responsibly. I know how important trust is when someone cares for your pet, so I will treat your pet with patience, kindness, and attention. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well while you’re away.

Kaitlin was wonderful with our 14 week old basset hound puppy! She was right on time, very communicative throughout the day, and incredibly sweet and caring. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our puppy was in such good hands. We’d absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind sitter!

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I began by fostering puppies with my sister, which taught me how to manage routines, training basics, and different personalities early on. I’m especially comfortable caring for senior dogs and pets with special needs, including administering medications, following specific diets, and maintaining consistent schedules. I prioritize calm, attentive care and pay close attention to behavioral cues to ensure each dog feels safe and relaxed. I’ve also worked with dogs that need extra patience or structure, and I approach every situation with confidence, and compassion. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else, and I’m committed to providing reliable care, regular updates, and a stable environment while you’re away. I have strong availability in the early mornings and again after work, as I usually finish my workday around 6–7 PM. This allows me to provide reliable morning care, evening check-ins, and overnight sitting while keeping pets on their normal routine. My roommate and I have a friendly small dog, Kobe, who loves making new furry friends. I’m committed to following your specific care routines. Whether that’s special medical needs or unique house rules. I prioritize safety and communication, ensuring your pet gets plenty of walks, playtime, and personalized attention so they feel right at home.

Highly recommended! We needed a dog sitter on somewhat short notice for a week long trip away and Jared came through! We have used the Rover app several times to find sitters in the past and Jared is now on our preferred-sitter list. He was very responsive prior to the booking, and was able to meet with us twice before hand. During our time away Jared took great care of our pup and our home, he kept us updated on need to know information as well as shared pictures and observations. We will definitely book with Jared for future trips :)

What can you say about Vanessa besides the fact that she is amazing. On less than a day’s notice, she was kind enough to do a meet and greet and then house sit my pup for the week. Vanessa is extremely communicative and helpful. You’ll never have to guess about the status of your pup or home when she’s around. I felt extremely comfortable with her in my home and she even left it cleaner than she found it. I would recommend Vanessa to all of my friends and book her services again any time.

Halle was extremely responsible and attentive to Cooper and Milo and as an added bonus, took fantastic pictures which she sent us regularly to let us know all was well. Our house can be a little tricky to take care of and Halle was a real trooper when learning everything. I highly recommend her and plan to book her first when we need house/ pet sitting again..

So happy we found Kaitie! She completely exceeded our expectations. She sent the most amazing photos throughout the stay and kept communication open the whole time — it made being away so much easier knowing my guy was in good hands. When I came home, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had the time of his life. The house was clean and tidy. We'll absolutely be booking her again!

Ivana was AMAZING!!! the sweetest soul and so willing to help us out us out in a last minute minute ! My sweet girl had a lot of fun with her and was so excited to meet her from the get go. Guava had been feeing sick for a couple of days and seemed like her normal self once Ivana came around, I think she was the little boost of she needed to get better. But felt so relaxed and comforted leaving her in her hands while she wasn’t feeling the best. 10/10 recommend 💕🙈
