House Sitting Mira Mesa

About: Hello! I am an animal lover who has recently relocated to the SD area. I regularly have sat for family, friends, and word of mouth recommendations for over a decade. I have cared for pets as small as tree frogs to a home with multiple large pit bull mixes, to a diabetic cat in need of insulin injections twice a day. Whatever type of pet you have I promise to love them as much as I love my own! I am currently at home full time. I regularly take walks to get out of the house and would love to have a companion join me! I love animals and couldn’t imagine spending my day in a better way than with them! I do have my own cat which means for multi day jobs I would occasionally want to visit her (my partner is there to care for her) but I am available to spend majority of the time at a clients home. I have a fenced back yard for your animal to run around in. I would keep your pet in the living room and kitchen are with me while I leave the bedrooms for my cat. I love going on walks so I will be more than happy to take your dogs out with me ( no dog parks or off leash areas).

“I can’t say enough positive things about Luis! We randomly found him on Rover and couldn’t have been more lucky. We have two rescues and one who can be very standoffish, especially towards men. Luis completely won her over! Within a day she was showing her belly and snuggling. Luis sent tons of photos, followed the girls schedule exactly as asked, and loved on our babies the whole time we were gone. We often debate about going out of town because it’s so hard to find someone who will care for our girls like us, but now we feel like we can take trips with no concerns at all. Can’t wait to use Luis again and highly recommend him to all!”

“Jinni is great! We weren’t sure how our toy poodle would handle spending time with a stranger (he can be a little shy and this was our first booking). We were so happy to see him hanging out on her lap shortly after we left! Clearly Jinni’s calm, easy energy made him feel right at home. :) Highly recommend!”

“I had a wonderful experience with Val! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared for my dog as if it was her own. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely recommend Val to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter, and I will definitely be using her services again.”

“Kaylan was an amazing sitter from start to finish! If my dogs could write this rating, I’m sure they’d give her 5 stars. She sent frequent updates, lots of pictures, and wasn’t afraid to ask questions whenever she needed clarification, which gave me peace of mind. She even took my pups on little adventures to explore new parks and treated them to pup cups, with permission of course! It’s obvious they were cared for, and got lots of love and attention while we were away at work. I came home to 2 happy pups and a cared for home. Would definitely recommend Kaylan for a reliable, caring sitter and happily booking her again!”

“We used Jacqueline as a house sitter to watch our high drive working dog for a long weekend. She was communicative, clean, great with the dog, and a great steward of our home. We would absolutely use her again without hesitation. Your pets and house are in good hands.”

I currently have two cats, Gizmo and Truffle, but I have owned many different types of dogs and cats throughout my entire life. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!

I am happy to care for your pets in your home or mine, including staying overnight. Whether your pet loves walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a familiar routine, I will provide trustworthy care tailored to them. In my home, I currently have two cats, Gizmo and Truffle. I can board your pets in my home as long as they are comfortable with cats. Both my cats tolerate dogs and cats well. I can also stay at your home while you’re away or do drop in visits/walks/feedings, depending on your preference.

“Bob was an amazing sitter for our corgi and husky! He was on time for both the meet & greet and the actual booking, and was very professional and kind throughout the entire experience. He sent us multiple daily updates, photos, and videos, and it was clear both dogs were getting lots of playtime, attention, and love. Our corgi usually gets extra emotional when we come home, but this time she seemed so happy and relaxed, which really showed us how well cared for they were. Our house was also left in great condition. We’re very happy with Bob and will definitely book with him again!”

About: **First of all, I only take care of one pet at a time, because I want to provide all of my attention to the pet. Secondly, I recently adopted a puppy, so I will take care of your pet while training my dog. My dog ​​is a Cavapoo, he is very enthusiastic and can get along well with all dogs and cats, so you can bring your dog to my home without any worries. I believe they will become good friends!** Hi, I am Yage, I just graduated from UC Berkeley in May and moved back to San Diego. I am currently pursuing a master’s degree at MICA, and luckily, it’s a 100% online program. So I spend most of my time at home, and my schedule is very flexible, giving me plenty of time to take care of your furry friends. In addition, I am also an artist running a handmade online shop. I am not doing Rover sitting for income; I joined simply because I genuinely love taking care of dogs and cats！ I’ve been passionate about dogs since I got my first golden retriever, Coco, when I was 20. I raised her from just 2 months old and trained her to do fun tricks like shaking paws and even distinguishing between her left and right paw! Coco's most impressive skill was playing dead whenever I mimicked a “bang bang” motion with my hand — she’d drop to the floor and stay still. She was healthy and happy for 14 wonderful years before passing away this March due to old age. I’ve always loved dogs and cat, while I’m not ready for a new one just yet, I often care for my friends' dogs, including corgis, Pomeranians, and labradors. I treat every dog I look after as if they were my own, ensuring they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love. As a freelancer and owner of a handmade art shop, my schedule is flexible, allowing me to care for pets throughout the day. I can easily adjust my routine to ensure that pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and care, making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. My home is pet-free, so your pet will have a calm and clean environment to stay in. We maintain a tidy and safe space, making it an ideal place for your pet to feel comfortable. Our neighborhood has a large grassy area where many dogs enjoy playing, giving your pet plenty of space for walks and outdoor fun. Plus, our pet-friendly apartment ensures that your pet will be welcome and well cared for during their stay.

About: I've worked at doggy daycares in the past, I've taken care of multiple friends' pets before, and I had the absolute pleasure of raising my own dog from a puppy until her death at the age of 13. I work a full-time 8-5 job, but I love taking care of pets after work, during my breaks, or on the weekends. On weekends and after work, I will stay for as long as you wish me to. I always make sure to ask what the pets favorite toys are, their feeding schedule, any medications they need, and if they have a walking schedule. I make sure to take them out to use the bathroom as frequently as possible, and make sure that they have plenty of water.

About: I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy caring for pets and making sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. I’ve looked after pets for family and friends and have experience around animals with different personalities and needs. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I focus on providing reliable care, lots of attention, and a calm, caring presence. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I love spending time with animals. My flexible schedule allows me to be available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I understand that leaving your pet with someone else can feel stressful, so I do everything I can to make the experience easy and comfortable for both you and your pet. I’ll follow their usual routine, give them plenty of attention and love, and make sure they feel safe in their familiar environment. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they get the care and companionship they need while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can check in and have peace of mind.

“Thank you Tiffany for being so great with our pups. She saved us last minute when our sitter cancelled the day before our trip. She kept us constantly updated and sent tons of adorable pics. We felt very comfortable having Tiffany stay and look forward to having her for our next adventure.”
