About: I’ve always had a dog and have taken care of family and friends’ dogs of all different ages, ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I love making dogs feel loved when their owners are away on trips. I go to school Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday during the day, but I am available during the evenings. Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays I am available anytime to care for your pet! I provide care in my clients' homes, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. Whether I'm house sitting, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking dogs on walks, I always follow each owner's instructions and keep their pet's normal routine. I make safety a top priority by ensuring doors and gates are secure, and using provided leashes and harnesses during walks. I provide fresh water, meals, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention to ensure they’re not only cared for but feel loved. I also treat every client's home with care and respect, keep the space clean, and provide regular updates with messages and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they're away.

About: I’m a caring and reliable pet sitter with years of animal care experience. As a full time sitter, I’ll devote my full attention to your pets throughout the day. I’ll follow their routines closely, including meals, walks, potty breaks, and playtime, so they always get the care and attention they need, even during typical work hours when other sitters might be too busy. For boarding or house-sitting, I take only one client at a time and have no pets of my own, so your pets won’t need to share my care or space with other animals. This ensures an stress-free, calm environment that respects their routines and individual needs. I’m a UC Irvine graduate and former paralegal who now happily focuses on personalized, hands-on pet care. I’m experienced administering oral medications, including pills, powders, and liquids in food, and following special care instructions to ensure every pet receives the best care. I treat every pet like my own, and my calm, positive energy helps them feel comfortable, safe, and loved. Their happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. I create a calm and loving environment where pets can relax and feel truly cared for, even when their owners are away. Throughout the day, your dog will receive plenty of attention and pets or cozy cuddles, helping them feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. I tailor walks to each dog’s energy and preferences, whether that’s a calm stroll around the neighborhood, potty breaks in your yard, or extra playtime in a safe, open area. Safety is always a top priority while we explore, sniff around, and enjoy our walks together. Housesitting: I treat your home with care and respect, keeping everything clean and tidy. I double-check doors and appliances to make sure everything is secure, so your home is just as you left it when you return. Boarding: I live in a quiet, single-story home with my mom, who also loves dogs. Your pet will enjoy a calm and peaceful environment with no other pets, helping them feel completely at ease. They’ll receive plenty of attention, love, and care, just like part of our family!

About: I had 3 dogs since 2002 and raised them from puppy early age until their end of life. my last one died 1 year ago. I'm not ready to get another one but would love to give some love and attention to someone else's dogs. I'm newly retired and would love to spend more time around dogs to play with them, walk with them. I love to be outside as much weather permit. I have a fenced backyard and able to crate your dog if needed. If I have to go away for a short period like 1hr, your dog will be confined in a safe area (entire family room).

About: I’ve spent over a decade caring for my own dog, a pit bull who was part of my family for 11 years and lived to 15 years old. He faced multiple health challenges over the years, including cancer, and I supported him through every stage of his life. That experience taught me patience, attentiveness, and how to stay calm and consistent, even in more demanding situations. I’m comfortable with medium to large breeds and understand the importance of structure, routine, and a safe, stable environment. I treat every dog with the same level of care and respect I gave my own I’m retired, so I’m home most of the day and able to provide consistent care, attention, and supervision. My wife also works from home, so there is almost always someone present to make sure your dog is safe and comfortable. We’re able to maintain a steady routine with regular potty breaks, feeding, walks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Dogs in our care are rarely left alone and are treated like part of the family. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and secure home environment where dogs are always supervised and cared for. Since I’m retired and my wife works from home, there is almost always someone present, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I take the time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and needs to ensure they feel safe and comfortable while they’re here. I also keep a close eye on behavior and interactions at all times. My goal is to provide an stress-free, reliable experience so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. To keep a safe and comfortable home environment, I ask that dogs are house-trained and non-destructive. Owners are responsible for any significant damage caused during a stay.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for animals from cats to dogs to rabbits to fish, all of various ages, sizes and breeds. I was a Foster Volunteer for an animal shelter, so I have been trained to care for rescue animals. I have experience caring for puppies and animals with disabilities and medical and behavior needs, as well as training dogs with leash aggression. I also have experience with long-term housesitting and managing the duties that go along with that (watering, trash, mail, general housekeeping). I am also a plant lover with experience tending to indoor and outdoor plants. I am a full time Kindergarten teacher, but I live close enough to my school that I could easily come home to check on any animal boarding with me during the day, and I am free on evenings and weekends. I love on any animals in my care as if they were my own, giving them the best quality holistic care I can provide. My number one priority is their comfort and wellbeing and putting your mind at ease, as I know how difficult time away from beloved pets can be. I live in a 3rd floor apartment with no yard, but I’m right next to the complex dog park and am happy to drive dogs in my car to trails and/or other parks for exercise.

Baining is the only right answer. I was new to the app and was in need of a dog sitter. I was hesitant to even try Rover but Baining made the whole process easy. She was kind enough to arrange for a meet and greet before the days I needed help. She was very easy to talk to and highly communicative. She's awesome and I'll absolutely be reaching out in the future. Thanks Baining!

About: Hello I’m Nancy! I’m a recent college graduate from UCSD who would prefer more animal friends than humans. I joined Rover to meet more local furry neighbors and help out pet owners. I’m a hamster owner myself, but I have plenty of house sitting experience for dogs and cats since 2021. Owners that book recurring visits often see their pets are excited to see me again. I’m honored to be your sitter — your pet will get all of my love and affection and you will receive lots of (goofy) photos to prove that. Cat owners extremely benefit from me, as I have a younger sister who also helps out whenever I am cat sitting. Your cat will understand what it is like to be a celebrity between the two of us since we are big cat lovers! My work schedule is Thursday-Mon 11pm-7:30am. I typically don’t sleep until a couple hours later (10-11am) and I wake up around 3-4pm. So my schedule can align well with pets that are familiar with a typical 9-5 schedule. I rarely travel so my schedule can accommodate pets under short notice. Before you entrust me with the care of your friend, I’d love to know more about them. Ideally, I’d love to schedule a meet and greet beforehand so they get used to me and so we both know more about each other. It is important to me that I meet you and your pet’s expectations. I’d love to know all the quirks and traits of your pet.

I knew since 10 I would do anything for my pets and I wanted to learn more so I started to do research and still to this day I’m learning the absolute most that I can so I can eventually become a dog trainer after schooling, than I’ll be able to start my dream Goal to start a rehabilitation center for dogs in need. My goal is to save the dogs that are close to being put down or they have severe behavior problems. In my family we have a total of 6 dogs right now, my mother fostered many dogs and puppies which opened my eyes to such an incredible experience and knowledge. I know how to handle dogs from tiny to large, I am very strong and can handle big dogs larger than 70 lb. I love dogs (and cats) with a passion and would love to be able to help in any way that I can. Thank you for taking the time to consider me! I am currently working from 6am-2:30pm Monday-Thursday and Saturday. I’m free after 2:30 or Friday and Sunday. If you have any questions please feel free to ask! Where I am living at the moment I am not allowed my pets so they stay at my fathers house.

Nicole has been caring for our kitties for over a year now and smoothly customizing care for both our elderly lady and our energetic boy! We appreciate her kind and professional demeanor and especially her flexibility plus strong communication. We know that the medical, social and physical needs of both kitties will be well attended to. On our most recent trip, Nicole had to respond to a Summer ant incursion and handled it just as we would have done. Having Nicole on the job really gives us peace of mind that all will be well while we are away. Thank you so much, Nicole!!!
