“Apple was amazing! I felt very comfortable leaving my dog under her care, she sent me updates continually so I never had to worry about how my pet was doing. She was super communicative and friendly, I will definitely be coming back to her for any future care needs!”
“Cristina and her family took my pup in and made him feel right at home! Daily updates and pictures made me smile knowing that he was loved and played with while I was gone. He had a lot of activity and I could tell he was well tired out when it was time to go home. Thank you for taking such good care of him.”
“Jinni took a very good care of Tigra. She is very responsive, and it was easy to onboard, communicate and followed feeding instructions. Looked like my cat loved being with Jinni a lot!”
“Lauryn is absolutely amazing!!! She saved our vacation after some issues with the place we were staying at. Our dog loved her! I will definitely be using her anytime we are in San Diego.”
“Karla was super sweet with my girl Mila. Sent pictures and updates frequently throughout her time with her. She was also very patient with puppy energy and took her to my local dog park so she can still be around her friends while I was gone (and let out some energy). Would definitely recommend!”
“Michelle is the best! We truly appreciated her suggestion for a meet and greet before booking so our pug could meet her and we could make sure it was a good fit. During his stay, we were sent daily updates and pictures of Ezra enjoying life under Michelle's care. She was also very accommodating with pick up and drop offs! She is at the top of our list for future boarding!”
“Marissa was amazing and I highly recommend! We were a bit nervous finding a new Rover to board our dog for 2 weeks while we were out, but Marissa was quick to respond and even open to a meet and greet before. Our dog has a bit of separation anxiety, but it sounded like he adjusted really well. She also has a big enclosed yard, which allowed him plenty of time to play and roam outside. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Laurie was great and Stella had a great time with her and her dogs. She sent me regular updates and pics during my trip and Stella came back happy from her place. Would def recommend and use her services in future.”
“Third time with LeeAnn! She always takes such great care of Zoey and sends frequent pictures and videos. I was gone for 2 weeks and did not have one worry while I was away. Highly recommend LeeAnn!”
“Jeff is so reliable and takes great care of our dog, including. Medications and lots of fun walks. He sends lots of pictures and videos during the whole visit and is really helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend and trust him.”
“I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Bri is phenomenal. She took care of our pup for two weeks and gave her the most fun, enriching, and loving days by taking her on hikes, trips to the farmers market, movie nights at the beach, and lots of walks throughout the day. Our dog takes a while to warm up, but Bri was so patient and loving and really cared for her as if she was her own. She sent us lots of videos and photos, making us feel connected to our pup even though we were so far away! We are so grateful we found Bri and will absolutely have our pup stay with her again. Thank you so much Bri!”
“We had a hectic travel week and Miranda was flexible with our pick up and drop off, which was much appreciated. Takes our dog a while to warm up to a new place and people, but he seemed excited to go off with them. We'll be booking again!”
“Meagan and Mike were so awesome! I really enjoyed meeting them and they were so nice and communicative. They truly love caring for peoples dogs and would highly recommend if you need a sitter.”
“Sammy was amazing! She took amazing care of our boy, Blue. She provided updates, took him on beautiful walks, and made him feel warm and comfortable. She is a pro when it comes to the care of dogs. I cannot express how grateful we were to trust Sammy with Blue! She is the perfect dog-sitter. 10/10 recommend anyone looking for their dog to be watched to trust Sammy. I will be coming back to her for when our boy Blue needs a sitter again in the future!”
About: An animal person since birth, I am my friends/families' go-to dog sitter, valuing safety, the details, and leaving the doggos with a smile on their face! Can't wait to meet you and care for yours! I am currently in graduate school and have lots of free time and energy to spend caring for animals, which is a passion of mine and an enriching experience for both parties! I live in a quiet and clean home in Ocean Beach with a large, fenced in backyard and many parks nearby. I have one dog so everything is safety proof for others too!
“Teresa was a great sitter to my 13 year old rescue chihuahua. She is very set in her ways and doesn’t like change. Teresa was very patient with her. She sent me lots of pictures and I could tell my dog was enjoying her stay. I will definitely use Teresa in the future.”
“Joe and Carol were really flexible with drop-off/pickup times and our dog seemed very comfortable and happy when we picked him up! They also sent pics throughout the stay which was nice. Hopefully we will be able to use them again in the future!”
“William and his wife did a great job of taking care of our dogs! Sent us plenty of pictures and kept in touch throughout our dogs stay. We will definitely be using again in the future!”
About: Hi! I’m Rachel-a lifelong dog lover and experienced pup-sitter based in San Diego. I grew up with a family dog, have had my own sweet pup Riley for the past 2.5 years, and regularly watch dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. Whether it’s a high-energy puppy or a mellow senior, I’ve got you covered. I’m big on reinforcing boundaries and routines, but I’m also generous with belly rubs, attention, and of course, plenty of photo updates so you never feel far from your dog. Happy to tailor care to your dog’s personality and needs. Let me know what makes them feel at home! Because of USAID funding cuts, I’m currently working part-time and from home, so your pup gets a whole lot of my attention! I have a flexible schedule, which means I can accommodate midday potty breaks, longer stays, or even just a quick cuddle visit. I have a friendly dog to keep your dog company, and a closed in patio! I lock doors when I leave. If you need your dog in a crate when I leave the house I’m happy to accommodate!
