“Kendall was fantastic, incredibly communicative and responsive. We received feedback from our neighbors that it looked like Kendall and our dog were having the time of their lives!”
“Tina took great care of our kitties! She was a great communicator and she sent lots of pictures so we felt at ease while we were away. Our girls were clearly comfortable with her. I also appreciated that she offered a meet and greet beforehand even though I wasn’t able to make the time work”
“Shelby sat at our home with our dogs. They warmed up quickly to her and we're very happy she sat for us. She left our home tidy, and we will book her again for sure in the future.”
“Lauren was an excellent cat/house sitter while I was away on a work trip! My cat Loki is very social and loves a lot of attention, so I really appreciated how present Lauren was with him, and how much she played with him! She sent me a lot of pictures, which kept my mind at ease while I was away. I will definitely rebook with Lauren again!”
About: Hey, I'm Jack! I grew up on a family farm surrounded by animals, which gave me a lifelong love for pets. My roommates and I currently live with two rescued dogs, so I’m very familiar with the daily care, attention, and patience every pets need. I’m 27, work from home full-time, and live an active lifestyle in Pacific Beach. Because I work remotely, I’m able to spend plenty of time with pets throughout the day—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. Every pet has their own personality and needs, and I do my best to understand and accommodate them. I’m dependable, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond to messages. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pets!
“The BEST! Emily sent all the photos and our two pups loved her. They barely cared when we got home which to us seems like a great visit. Thank you Emily for everything.”
“Elizabeth was great! She is communicative, responsible, and left the house in perfect condition. Our Lola was very happy and healthy upon our return. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”
“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!”
“Very flexible with our plans even over the holidays! Didn’t really have to worry about of fur babies at all, she was able to take great care of them and take them even on longer walks than normal, would not hesitate to use her again!”
“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!”
“Averi was amazing! She was able to stay last minute and really saved me. She was very communicative and I returned home my place like I had left it. Thank you again for all you did with Penny!”
About: Hi! I’m Riley, a reliable, caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, overnight care, or just extra cuddles and attention, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to follow any routines or special instructions to keep your pet happy and stress-free. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I have a flexible schedule and genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I love going on walks, being outdoors, and having a structured daily routine, so caring for pets is something I truly enjoy making time for. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care throughout the week, especially evenings and weekends, and I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I always prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions to make sure your pet feels secure and cared for. I’m very responsible, communicative, and respectful of both pets and homes, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Grateful for the care of our furry handful—he really can be a handful due to his dog aggression—and the excellent communication that Dwayne provided. I felt comfortable and confident leaving Pongo in Dwayne's care, which has not always been the case with other sitters. When we returned home, Pongo looked fat and happy. (He always looks fat.) And our house looked great.”
“Leaving our energetic pup and needy cat isn’t easy, but Annie made it feel effortless. She was thoughtful, communicative, and treated our home with care. We came back to happy pets and a peaceful house—we feel so lucky to have found her.”
“Gina is a great pet sitter! She sent lots of photos throughout the night, and my dogs looked so happy and comfortable with her. She took them on an evening walk, followed all instructions perfectly, and was very communicative and friendly. I would absolutely hire her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
About: I grew up with 4 dogs and 3 cats. I love animals and caring for them. My own dog is a senior, special needs, rescue and she is the light of my life! My availability is very flexible so I am able to work around what works best for you and your schedule! I can work 7 days a week if needed! I value the safety and well being of any animals in my care above all else. I love to make sure they have enough attention and stimulus- whether that be with walks or playing or cuddling! I think it is especially important as well to respect the specific needs and requests of the owner.

Mission Bay pet parents share their Rover experiences
Aleksandra had an excellent rapport with my dogs from the beginning. They quickly settled down during the meet&greet and she was not rattled by them. She was attentive to instructions and asked questions as needed. Most importantly she was prompt and reliable. Very good at reading an understanding the dogs communication. The stay went well.
I cannot express enough gratitude enough for Stacy!! Thoughtful ✅ communicative ✅ flexible ✅ reliable ✅ affordable ✅ trustworthy ✅ kind ✅ genuine ✅ pup-loving ✅ and an all-around lovely human who goes above and beyond with the support she provides. My doggo loves spending time with her and I have complete peace of mind when I leave her in Stacy’s care. 10 / 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🙌🙌🙌
Maria is incredible. She was so attentive to my pup’s needs, including her laundry list of medications and fussy eating requirements. She sent frequent detailed updates and photos, asked excellent and intuitive questions, and left our home even cleaner than it was when she arrived. I am so, so grateful to her and I can tell our dog truly trusted her. We’ll be repeat clients for sure!
Roberta is hands down the best rover I’ve ever had. She watched both of my pups while I was out of town. My boxer Toasty is very anxious and takes forever to warm up to new people and within an hour he was giving her kisses. She kept me updated with tons of photos and videos of them on walks, playing with toys, and she even got them pup cups! I could tell they were genuinely having the time of their lives. And when I got home, the place was spotless. Couldn’t recommend her more highly.
I booked Catalina last minute for house sitting and she was great with my two dogs. She was prepared and arrived the day of booking, on short notice, for a quick look around the place and took notes. She also managed one of the dogs having separation anxiety at night.
Morgan was amazing, as always. Super responsive, sends lots of pics, and made us feel totally comfortable leaving our new puppy with her while we were out of town for the long weekend. I swear we came back to a better trained puppy who is comfortable walking more than a few blocks from our house.
Mackenzie was amazing! I asked her very last minute to watch our two dogs while we were out of town and I (and the pups) immediately loved her. She was communicative and I felt very comfortable with her staying in our space. I would absolutely recommend Mackenzie and will be booking again!
Tina took great care of our kitties! She was a great communicator and she sent lots of pictures so we felt at ease while we were away. Our girls were clearly comfortable with her. I also appreciated that she offered a meet and greet beforehand even though I wasn’t able to make the time work
Gina went above and beyond when watching my cat! I really appreciated all the pictures and updates throughout the weekend. She was very professional and trustworthy which is of utmost importance for anyone coming into your home and caring for your fur baby. I will reach out to her first next time I need a sitter and I’d recommend her to anyone!
