Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Old Town, San Diego

“Evenly is great with Rosie. Rosie is so calm around her and comfortable cuddle up with her. She sent check in every hour. Definitely will rebook in the future if needed.”

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: Animals gravitate to me, and I'm a photographer! While you're away, you will receive amazing photos and videos of your furry family member! I have a special place in my heart for my friend's dog Tripp. He has 3 legs and a strict diet. I love making sure his food is always perfectly prepared and getting all his meds. Whenever I'm with him we always take a trip to the beach. Plenty of window space in my 4runner and cool aftercare tools to clean and dry your furry loved one for the ride home. I've been a commercial photographer for 16 years now, it's time to freelance and build my business outside of working for a company. I love pets, traveling, and meeting new people. Excited to see where this takes me as a photographer and animal lover. I give the furry loved ones the same luxuries I would enjoy. Soft bed with a blanket to curl in, clean water, and food with a tasty treat throughout the day. Car ride adventures and cuddles. Depending on what you choose for them, maybe some soft music or the nature channel on if I'm away. Toys and attention are important! Every furry loved one has their favorite toy!

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.

“Great communication and was super friendly. My cat really enjoyed his company and everything went great. Would happily have him take care of my cat again.”

I currently work full time, but I am happy to offer early morning and evening check-ins, walks, etc. Afternoon check-ins may be offered depending on your location. Please see my availability below.

I will follow your instructions and communicate with any questions or concerns to ensure your pets comfort,safety, and security. I love providing appropriate enrichment, exercise, pets, and snuggles unique to your pet. I love to provide owners with lots of photos during my visits as well!

“Tessa was absolutely amazing with our cat! She was so attentive and communicative. We loved getting pictures while we were away and appreciated the well-informed updates and cute anecdotes she sent us. It made it a little easier to be away from our beloved cat knowing he was in such good hands. She handled his medication well and gave him lots of love, brushing, playtime, and attention. We are so grateful for the time she gave our cat and will absolutely be rebooking her for our future trips!”

“Tina was able to take care of my cats when I needed her in a pinch! From providing a ton of pictures, to giving them little scavenger hunts with treats - I knew they were well taken care of when I was away!”

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!

“Mike was enthusiastic in caring for our somewhat high maintenance pup while we took a family vacation. He’s a great communicator and even took care of unexpected house tasks like bringing in packages. Highly recommended!”

Justin I.

“My dogs love Caitlin. She’s amazing in how well she cares for my dogs while I’m gone. I can be certain that they are in great hands. She thinks of the smallest details to make sure they are comfortable and safe. Thank you!”

Andreas L.

“Tina is a great sitter! She goes above and beyond - she let me know about a notice on my door while I was out of town and cleaned up the litter my cats tend to leave around (even though we never discussed those responsibilities). Very easy to work with and clearly loves pets!”

Bailey R.

“Amazing amazing!! Booking with her everytime I need help!!!!”

Annalisa R.

“Jennifer did a great job with our fur babies. Sent lots of pics and kept us well updated. She was also very flexible with meeting which was appreciated.”

About: Hi there! I’m Sami — a lifelong dog lover originally from Chicago, now living in San Diego. I currently have a sweet Morkie (Maltese-Yorkie mix) who lives back home with my mom in Chicago. Even though she’s miles away, I miss her every day — so taking care of other people’s pups fills my cup! I have 10+ years of experience watching all different breeds and ages ranges of dogs. If you have any special accommodations I am more than happy to accommodate! I live right between bankers hill and hillcrest area, and my apartment is pet friendly. There are lots of grassy areas nearby, and Balboa park is a 8 minute walk from me so there’s plenty of room for your dog to walk around! I work from home every day except Wednesdays so I can board your dog majority of the week! I live with my partner and we have a 2 bedroom place, so it is the perfect spot for your pup to hang out and will be getting lots of love and attention! I work from home every day except Wednesdays so I can board your dog at my place or come by for walks throughout the day! I also have availability on weekends and try to keep my status updated as much as possible! If I’m in your home, I make sure everything stays clean, cozy, and familiar for your pet. I follow feeding and walk schedules closely, give them lots of love and attention, and send photo updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. For walks or drop-ins, I make sure they get plenty of fresh air, sniff time, and play — whatever makes them happiest. My goal is always to make your pet feel loved and cared for, and for you to feel totally at ease knowing they’re in good hands. My apartment is close to Balboa Park so I can take them on lots of walks nearby!

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!

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.
