“We just had Aubrey come the first time for our two big dogs and she was delightful. Punctual, great communicator and great with the dogs. My young one is usually very shy with new people, but she took to Aubrey immediately. We will be using her again!”

“As usual, Kimberly goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are ok. She takes exceptionally good care of our pets and treats them like her own. She is our go to petsitter!”

“Lizzy took such great care of our cat Lucy. She made sure all her needs were met while we were gone. Lizzy checked in promptly and, if necessary, followed up with us on any questions she had. We highly recommend Lizzy to care for your furry lived ones.”

About: My family has fostered dogs for the guide dog foundation my whole life in addition to our family dog, so I’m used to managing a house full of dogs. When I moved into my own place I fostered dogs at my local shelter. These dogs ranged in age and typically came from difficult up bringings. I also have a history of pet sitting for my family members. I work from home from 7am - 4pm Monday through Friday. My work day is flexible which allows me to take care of pets during the day. I care and appreciate all animals. I ensure that your pet is taken cared of allowing for optimal bathroom breaks, lots of pets, and playtime.
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. Please note: on most Saturdays, I have another commitment from 5am-12pm. Please keep this in mind before booking, especially if your dog can’t be left alone for that length of time or requires meds, feeding, or other care during those hours. 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 a 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 with administering some oral medications, including pills, powders, and liquids in food, and following detailed care instructions provided by owners 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 volunteer at the San Diego Humane Shelter twice a week. I also grew up with a multi-poodle who was part of my life for 12 years. She was more than just a pet (she was family) and taking care of her taught me that so much about what dogs need and how much love they give back. Since then, I’ve always been around dogs, whether it’s through friends or family, and it’s something that’s just always felt natural to me. I love being around them, and caring for them doesn’t feel like a task, it’s just something I genuinely enjoy. I am currently available anytime. Outside of pet care, I just finished my bachelors degree in Architecture and am now studying for my law school entrance exam! Right now, I am offering pet care in my own home. I am also happy to care for pets in their own space, where they’re most comfortable. I always make sure to follow any instructions the owner provides, whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or specific routines. I’m very attentive to each pet’s needs and personality, and I make it a priority to keep them feeling safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.

About: Hello my name is Stephanie and since I am no longer able to have a dog, would love to help you walk or take care of yours! I love all types of dogs and love to create new best friends through love and care, cuddles, walks and treats. I take “hot girl walks” daily, would love a partner in crime to do it with. I do have a full time job, work mornings so am able to do evening walks or anytime Monday and Thursdays (my days off) also open to sitting at any time When I did have a cute little dog (3 I total), I trained them from a puppies and continued training in making sure they were well behaved and cared for always. Dogs to me are more than pets and I would treat yours just the same.
“Kristen was amazing! It was my Kodas first time meeting her and they got along great. She provided photos to update me on the walk, feeding and even some petting time and he loves. I would definitely use her again and plan on using her again in the near future.”

“Jessica did drop-in visits for our cat while we were away for a few days. She was responsive from beginning to end, and I felt confident to leave Oliver with her. She gave daily updates and made us feel at ease. Would love to have Jessica come take care of Oliver again in the future. Thank you Jessica!”

About: At my previous living complex, I ran daily playtime for the neighborhood dogs, and the second I stepped onto the sidewalk, they'd sprint to the edge of the grass before my own dogs even got there! I'm known as "Dr. Wendy" for the massages I love giving during playtime, especially to the older pups. I'm pre-med student and currently applying to medical school. With my pre med background, I am comfortable administering both oral and injected medications, so pet parents with dogs on prescriptions or managing chronic conditions can leave with total peace of mind. I also have hands-on experience with senior and special needs dogs, including pets that need extra bathroom breaks, mobility support, or a more attentive overnight routine.Whether it's a playful puppy still learning the ropes or a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC, I treat every pet like my own. I've been an animal lover since 2014 and turned it into a full-time passion for pet care in 2024. Since then I've built my brand - Wendy the Dog Magnet.I'm licensed and insured for pet care services and working towards to completing other certifications. Pet sitting is my main focus right now, so I have the flexibility to make it a priority every day — whether that's daily drop-ins, walks, or overnight stays. I structure my days around my clients' schedules first, then fit in MCAT studying and my ongoing job search around those visits. That means I'm not squeezing pet care into leftover time — it gets my full attention and reliability, whether it's a quick midday potty break or an extended overnight. My approach is rooted in consistency and close attention to each pet's individual needs and routine. For puppies still working on potty training, I follow the same method I used raising my own boys: start with a small, contained area, keep a consistent feeding schedule, and track every bathroom break (number 1 and number 2) so I can learn their pattern quickly. Once a pup is cleared by their vet for outdoor walks, I transition them from potty pads to outside breaks at that same consistent schedule — my own dogs were fully house trained using this method by 8-10 months. For adult and senior dogs, I stick closely to whatever routine the family already has in place — feeding times, walk schedules, medication needs — so there's minimal disruption while their people are away. Whether I'm in my home or a client's home, my priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and on a schedule they can count on.

About: I grew up with dogs and had dogs almost all time. My grand dad has this tradition to adopt a pup when there was a child birth in our family. Due to which all my cousins grew up with dogs , caring and sharing our laughter , food with them. I have experience managing all size dog. I currently am a proud mom of a Maltese who fell into my laps during pandemic and a golden girl Arya. Back home , I have mountain dog and terrier who, my dad is looking after them in our farm house. Being a farmer’s daughter , I have loved animals since forever. I have been associated with animal shelter and rescue groups since I was 16 years. I just feel they deserve to be sharing the space with us and feel protected.

About: I am an animal lover/puppy mother with experience caring for dogs, cats, and reptiles. With owner guidance, I can provide personalized pet care including walks, feeding, potty breaks, companionship, and pet sitting. I work from home and have a flexible work schedule; this allows me to be available most days and any time. I will have plenty of time to walk/feed/play/snuggle with your pet(s).

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.
“Lindsay took good care of my two dogs and two cats for a long weekend. Her communication was great and I came home to happy and well-cared for pets. I’d highly recommend her and I look forward to having her watch my fur babies again!”

Steph is so kind, thorough and loves our sweet fur babies…they love her so much that I honestly think that they miss her when we come back from vacation! She went over and above every little detail that I left for her to take care of. The only reason that I feel comfortable taking a vacation is because I know that our pets are being cared for by Steph. I love receiving the sweet photos daily from her…it’s such a treat to see them looking so happy and well cared for while we’re away!! Thank you again Steph, you truly are the best!!!

Upon meeting Sophia, you could immediately tell that she is a very kind and caring person. She kept me updated throughout my trip and even made sure I made it home safely. I highly recommend Sophia and would absolutely have her watch my cat again. I hope to have the opportunity to schedule with her again in the future!

She’s amazing. My cat is not very friendly to people but Sabrina got ways to connect with her. My cat let her pat her. We have other people come and go all the time. My cat had never let others touch her except us. I believe Sabrina must have some magical wands. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for someone sitting with your pets.

Triana went above and beyond to make sure our pets were taken care of while we went on a family trip. We got pictures from every visit and regular communication about how everyone was doing. We felt safe and happy the animals’ needs were being met the whole time. Thanks Triana!

Once again, Nicole took great care of our kitties! We were gone for two weeks, and she kept us updated about what was going on with them the whole time. She is very responsive, and she gave them extra cuddles when they seemed lonely :). We will definitely book her next time we're out of town!

Kimberly has made a great bond with my skiddish kitties. I always know they’re in good hands with her and she brings a calm and caring presence in my absence. She has excellent communication and I appreciate her efforts to ask questions or raise concerns when needed.

Heather was great to work with! We have two relatively chill cats, but they come with a lot of instructions. Heather did everything we asked and definitely spoiled them! I will request her again in the future for sure. She gave us total peace of mind while we were on vacation.

We are very pleased with Krzysztof’s services. He was quick to respond to our very last minute request and accommodated our location that we needed. He was attentive, paid attention to details when visiting and listening to what we needed for Hula. He treated Hula like his own and always communicated with us. He’s amazing with animals and has such a caring spirit. From the moment he came, we could feel comfortable with him. Hula instantly loved him too. We trust our dog’s instincts! We will be booking with Krzysztof again!!
Alinah did a great job taking care of Tart. She was reliable, communicative, and very sweet with him. She kept me updated with pictures and videos and was very patient in helping with all the little requests I had. She was also very helpful and flexible with a last-minute check-in. I really appreciate the effort she put in and how kind she was with Tart. I would definitely book with her again!
