About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life, including dogs of all sizes. I am experienced in giving medications, walking, feeding, and taking out for potty breaks and doing so in a loving and patient manner. As an animal lover I also like to give back to the animal community and have done so by volunteering at the animal shelter where I have learned so much. I am a former Registered Nurse so I have plenty of experience administering shots and I am currently looking into vet tech schools to pursue a new exciting career working closely with animals of all kinds. I am excited to meet you and your furry friends. I currently have 2 cats and 3 grand pups. That’s right. All 3 of my children have adorable dogs and I help care for them every week. I enjoy walking them, feeding them and playing with them. I would have a dog of my own too, but I live in a tiny apartment and my 2 cats, Simba and Floyd are my best friends. I have worked as a dog walker in the past for a company in Carlsbad where I gained valuable experience. I will provide exceptional care for your pets in your home. I will feed, water, walk and play and take them out for potty breaks. I can administer medication as well. I am patient and caring with a background in nursing. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members.

About: What sets me apart is that I provide calm, attentive, and reliable care and really focus on keeping pets comfortable and on their normal routine. I have 4 years of hands on experience caring for my own cat daily, including feeding schedules, litter care, grooming, and noticing small changes in behavior or health early. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs and understand the importance of consistency with walks, feeding, and attention. While I don’t specialize in formal training or senior specific care yet, I’m very patient, observant, and good at following detailed instructions from owners to make sure each pet’s individual needs are met. I treat every pet like my own and prioritize safety, communication, and making sure owners feel confident while they’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around caring for my own cat. Each day includes feeding, refreshing water, cleaning the litter box, and spending time playing and checking in on his behavior. These tasks are consistent habits for me, not something I have to plan around. On a weekly basis, I also do deeper cleaning like fully changing the litter, cleaning food and water bowls thoroughly, and making sure all pet areas stay sanitary and organized. I’m used to being consistent and reliable with routines, so I can easily adjust my schedule to include pet sitting visits, walks, or check-ins as needed. In my home, I care for pets by keeping a consistent daily routine that includes feeding on schedule, fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and monitoring their behavior and health. I focus on keeping a clean, calm environment and making sure my cat feels safe, comfortable, and stimulated. In a client’s home, I would follow their instructions closely and maintain the pet’s normal routine as much as possible. This includes feeding, walking dogs if needed, refreshing water, cleaning up after them, and providing attention and companionship so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes and make sure everything is left clean and as I found it.

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up, ranging from small to large breeds, so being around animals has always been second nature to me. While I’m new to Rover, I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with pets. I’m happy to help with walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and cared for. My schedule is pretty flexible this summer, so I’m able to accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening care depending on your needs. I’m responsive and dependable, and I’ll always make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and care. I always prioritize safety, patience, and making pets feel comfortable. I’m attentive on walks, careful with routines and instructions, and happy to send updates/photos so you can feel at ease while your pet is with me.

About: I have owned and cared for both dogs and cats, have been around animals all my life, and would love to care for all types of pets! I have a lot of flexibility these days (post-grad life), so I’m willing and able to handle nearly all pet-care needs! *note on availability: I also work part time, and am not able to create an hourly availability in the rover app. Here is when I’m unavailable the following 2 weeks. Any other days not mentioned here, I am available all day!: Tue 6/9: 9-1pm Wed 6/10: 7-4pm Thur 6/11: 8-5pm Sat 6/13: 8-5pm Mon 6/15: 7-4pm Tue 6/16: 7-4pm Wed 6/17: 9-6pm I’m currently enjoying the post-grad school life, and have a lot of free time and flexibility to care for your animals. I also have a car, so am very mobile! I am more than happy to care for your pets in their home, and will ensure that they feel comfortable and maintain what they are used to/their routines.

“Anna was an excellent communicator and walked my dogs 3x/week while I was out of town. Both of my dogs really enjoyed their walks and I would not hesitate to work with Anna again!”

About: I believe that a happy dog in the home is essential and a precursor to a happy life overall, and I strive to bring the same attentiveness and care that I share with my own pup to any pets I have the privilege of taking care of through my services on Rover. When we meet the basic needs of our precious companions throughout the day, we have more freedom to bond with them, and them with us, and that’s where I come in! I want to help you meet your home pet care needs and goals so you can feel confident that when you come home after a busy day, you are coming home to a dog or a cat that is happy and well taken care of. I want to ensure that your pet’s routines stay intact, that they get plenty of exercise when needed, that they stay safe, and it is a joy to me to provide that service! I work from home, and my day is already built around caring for a dog. Morning walk first thing, breakfast, play, a walk around 5:30 for dinner, evening walk before bed, with attention and rest woven in between. I follow instructions exactly, keep your pet's routine intact, send photo updates, and treat your home and your dog's space the way I'd want someone to treat mine. On walks, I match the pace to the dog, calm dogs get a relaxed walk, energetic ones we stay moving, and I stay attentive to reactivity triggers and adjust accordingly.

About: I have taken care of pets for a very long time since I was about 12 years old. I guess you can say it runs in the family to love pets so whenever our family or friends needed a sitter, we had open arms! I went off to college and continued pet sitting and now my journey continues. I am currently working full time, remote so my hours are very flexible. I can always make time for my little furry friends! Schedule is flexible! I am very outdoorsy and full of adventure. I always make sure to walk the dogs while also being prepared with anything they might need. I’m also very careful and make sure all furry friends are in a safe environment.

About: I’ve basically grown up in a zoo! My family has always had animals around— multiple dogs, birds, turtles, fish, a cat, and at one point even 13 guinea pigs. Because of that, I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and am very comfortable around pets with different personalities and needs. Dogs have always been my favorite. When I was a kid, my sisters and I even started our own little “doggy daycare” for neighborhood dogs, which was honestly one of the highlights of my childhood. Today, my family has three dogs, and I love spending time with them whenever I’m home. Since I’m now living in San Diego and my family is in Los Angeles, I don’t get to see them as often as I’d like. Rover gives me the chance to spend time with dogs, help pet owners in the community, and do something I genuinely enjoy. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own family pets. Just graduated from USD, so I have lots of availability and free time to be with your pup pretty much every hour of the day! I live in an apartment with no pets, but plenty of pet friendly furniture! I would frequently take the dogs out on neighborhoods walks, out to the park, or even the beach depending on the dog and owner preferences! I also live less than a block away from the Humane Society, in case of an emergency!

About: With more than five years of experience pet-sitting, I have taken care of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I pride myself on being an attentive, present, and caring sitter. I love animals more than anything. My first dog was rescued the day after I was born and ever since then animals have been an important and meaningful part of my everyday life. I will care for your pet like they’re my own, and always assure they’re at their best. I really look forward to meeting you! I am currently working part-time four days a week and go to online college full-time at Washington State University. My schedule is flexible, and I can usually try and adjust my availability to suit your needs. It is my top priority to respect you and your pet’s boundaries and requests. They are part of the family and that is very important to me. I am very familiar with the many parks and dog-friendly spaces in the area. I love to get out and explore with them, or just stay in and do our own thing! I want them happy as can be.

“Super sweet and follow all the recommendations:) Milo liked her a lot! Booking her next time”

“Yasmine did great with Olive! This was my first time using Rover as an owner and Olive’s first interaction with someone outside her family. Yasmine was patient and understanding with Olive when she was unsure and barking at her, I am very grateful for her patience. I am also happy to book her for future walks!”

“Excellent dog walker. My Chihuahua mix, Ren, was super comfortable with Ricardo. I would definitely recommend Ricardo for anyone looking for a friendly and reliable dog walker.”

Laura A.

“Tina walked my very strong pittie for daily hourly walks. She is so kind, and you can tell she is passionate about animals. Tina sent very detailed notes with pictures and responded quickly when I reached out. I would definitely recommend her and plan to continue using her services.”

About: I've been around dogs for most of my life and grew up in a home with dogs as part of the family (My mom had 8 dogs at the same time at one point). While I don't currently have a dog of my own, I've spent years helping friends and family care for their pets, whether that's walking them, checking in on them, or providing company while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with animals. I'm active, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy adapting to each dog's personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I'm happy to provide the care that makes them feel comfortable and loved. I also have a special appreciation for large breeds! One of my favorite dogs was a Saint Bernard named Profesor, and he taught me that big dogs are often the gentlest souls! That said, I adore dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I'm very active and love being outdoors, so dog walks are something I genuinely enjoy. I've always been the friend and family member people call when they need help with their pets, and spending time with dogs is one of the highlights of my week. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, I love being able to give my time, attention, and energy to other people's furry family members. I'm a very responsible, caring, and attentive person. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. Whether I'm visiting your home or taking your dog for a walk, I'll follow your instructions closely, provide lots of love and attention, and make sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for. I also don't mind dogs riding in my car if transportation is needed for walks or adventures.

“Mia was punctual, friendly and professional. She was nice to my dog, which is most important. She seems really responsible and like a total dog lover.”
