“Abigail is really great! Very good communication! She sent me pictures of my pets few times a day every day while we were gone for over a week, she took my dog for a ride, very reasonable price and when I came home my place is nice and clean! I highly recommend Abigail ♥️I will rebook her anytime!”


2. Enrique T.

“I highly recommend Enrique as a dog and house sitter! He was incredibly attentive to my dogs, making sure they were well-cared for, walked, and happy while I was away. He kept my house spotless, which was a great bonus. Enrique also communicated frequently, sending me regular updates and photos of my dogs so I could see how well they were doing. It was clear that he genuinely cared about them, and it gave me peace of mind to know they were in such great hands. I’d absolutely trust him again for any future dog sitting needs!”

“Always cares for her pets as she would for a person. She always has the energy especially when it comes to meeting new animals and treats as a parent would for there kid!”


14. Della Y.

“Della went above and beyond with house sitting our 4 cats. We had especially been concerned our senior cat who had been loosing weight. She kept us up to date with all 4 cats and let us know when he was going downhill, trying everything in her effort to get him fed. Definitely would use again!”


15. Arlett C.

“Vanessa did a fantastic job taking care of my cat and dog! She was very communicative each day, sending pictures, answering questions, and providing updates. She is a great option for your pet care needs and will be my go to rover going forward! Thanks Vanessa!”


16. Jason B.

“Jay is not only a professional in the animal care world already, but also a professional at being everyone’s pets favorite visitor. He is kind and patient and has experience providing outstanding care to pets with diverse needs. Having two small senior dogs and a younger big dog can be intimidating for some pet sitters, but not Jay. He learned quickly where the treats were, which dog needed lap snuggles, and which one needed help being tucked into her own bed. He was patient in making sure they got their medications, ate all of their meals (even when he had to sit with them), and that the big girl got her solo long walks daily. I couldn’t recommend Jay and his services more! Plus my house was clean when I got back! Thank you!”


17. Teresa A.

“Teresa did a great job with all 3 of my dogs. It was so nice to go out of town knowing all of my fur babies would be well taken care of. They each had daily medicine to take and she made sure they each got what they needed. Many thanks Teresa!”

About: I’ve owned different dog breeds in my time from cocker spaniels, Puggle, Rottweilers and French bulldogs. Having a pet earn your respect is a well earned attribute as well as one (me) earning a pets trust. I enjoy teaching dogs new tricks, speaking to them in Spanish, playing fetch or even a simple walk. I work full-time, but I have a relatively flexible schedule. I can fully commit to weekends and some holidays. Love to utilize the outdoor time for a nice walk, some fetch, some fresh air or some sunshine. Pets are like kids. They have their own little character and most of them just want some attention. I tend to believe pets are great listeners and at times they want to be heard and have some playtime or downtime.


19. Vanessa N.

“Vanessa did a wonderful job taking care of our pups! I think they already miss her. She kept us in the loop and sent lots of pictures. I know they appreciated all of the walks and cuddles. I totally recommend Vanessa for any house sitting services.”

About: Living in beautiful San Diego with my wife and son, I continue to provide exceptional care for pets, ensuring they feel at home while their owners are away. The approach is simple: shower pets with all the love and attention they need, just like we would with our own furry family members. What sets us apart is our family-oriented approach to pet sitting. With my wife and son as my partners in care, we create a warm and welcoming environment for pets, making them feel like part of our family. Our goal is to provide a loving and comfortable experience for pets, giving them the attention and care they deserve. Together, we offer a unique blend of experience, compassion, and dedication that ensures pets are happy and content in our care. As a self-employed individual working from home, my daily and weekly routine is flexible, allowing me to dedicate ample time to pet care. I prioritize the well-being of our furry friends, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. Pet care routine is woven seamlessly daily, with scheduled feeding and playtime. Balancing pet care with my responsibilities to my son, wife, and art is a top priority. I have structured the daily routine to accommodate the needs of the dogs while also allowing time for work and family activities. Whether it's taking breaks throughout the day for a quick walk or spending quality time with our pets in the evening, I make sure they are well cared for and feel like part of the family. In my home, pets are treated like family and have full access to our amazing yard. They can lounge in the sun, explore the garden, or play to their heart's content in our secure outdoor space. Inside, they have a cozy spot to rest and plenty of toys to keep them entertained. Routine is tailored to each dog's needs and may include regular feeding times, outdoor play sessions, and lots of love and attention. When caring for pets in a client's home, I aim to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for them. I make use of any outdoor space available, whether it's a backyard, patio, or garden, to ensure pets have the opportunity to get fresh air and exercise. Routine is customized based on each dog's needs and may include outdoor playtime and lots of interaction to keep them happy and engaged. We also ensure their indoor space is clean, cozy, and secure, so they feel right at home while their owners are away.
