About: I started my own dog running business in Northern California. I would take my clients for runs and walks outside of their environment including the redwood forest and beaches. I’m responsible for picking up and dropping off at your home. I have pet sitter experience in my own home in the past. I’m free daily to do pet sitting while I’m studying. I do walks daily around the neighborhood. Anytime works for me I can do day sitting or multiple days. For my clients home I will follow the owners instructions. I will be available for walks or runs for dogs that can be use more energy burned.
About: I’ve been known as the dog, cat, hamster's sitter with my friends and family. I grew up with dogs my whole life and just loving animals. My friends and family see how much I adore their pets and how they adore me back so makes them feel comfortable with me watching over them if it’s for a day or a week, etc. I love that they trust me with basically their child. IYKYK! I enjoy taking dogs on walks as I know it’s so important for them to get out and get their sniffs. I mean I enjoy getting my steps in as well! Even stopping by to say a quick hello, a quick potty break, and a quick play, makes me happy to see them get excited for some love and attention. I’m your girl if you need my services for your lil cuties! I currently moved back to San Diego from LA and am enjoying spending time with my family. I have an open schedule Monday through Thursday, so am happy to also take time to spend with animals that need love and attention ❤️ I have a home that is safe and secure. I can crate if needed in my home or clients home. Love to cuddle and play and take them out when needed.
“Kerri was a wonderful sitter for my 2 kitties! She had great communication from start to finish, showed up on time, left a nice update after each visit and sent me lots of cute photos of my furbabies! I felt confident they were in good hands while I was away. I would definitely hire Kerri again.”

Hopefully Max can meet his future friends!
“Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.”

“Aytanna went above and beyond during their visits with Theia. In addition to the duties we discussed during booking, Aytanna also swept up litter and cat hair, sanitized my water fountain, and was super communicative about when they were coming by. I would highly recommend Aytanna to anyone (especially those with sensitive/shy animals) and will definitely be using them in the future.”

“Cynthia did a wonderful job taking care of our pets. Even when the pets were a bit unsure, she used great tactics and took the time to help them feel comfortable. Thank you!!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have chose a better fit than Tijera! She was very attentive and cared for my boy like he was hers. I’ll definitely be booking with her in the future.”

“Tatiana took great care of my fur babies. She made sure my dog and cat were happy and comfortable while my husband and I were away overnight. My cat is senior and requires medication, she had no problem handling that. Bogie (my dog) looked happy and relaxed when I returned home. I would hire her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life, and enjoy spending time with them. I truly love spending time with them and enjoy watching them. I am not currently working as of right now. I am pretty open with watching animals on weekdays or weekends, unless I am out of town or something comes up. Other than that, I am pretty free. I only care for pets in other people’s homes. I have fur babies of my own, but one of my dogs has anxiety issues being around other dogs she doesn’t know, so I prefer to watch your fur babies in the comfort of their own homes.
About: On top of dog and cat sitting for 7+ years, I’m also a trained massage therapist with a passion for bringing the massage experience to animals as well! Your pet may get some added spa perks 🤗 I’m currently a remote worker, so I can be anywhere, anytime! I’ll have the occasional day of meetings, but even then I have ample time throughout the day to give your pet all the love and attention they deserve! I prefer to take care of pets in the comfort of their own home! This makes for a smoother transition when the pet parents are away, and your pet can stay in the routine they’re used to.
About: Beyond just walking, I will engage with your pet through play and interaction, ensuring they have a safe, fun, and stimulating experience. I am willing to accommodate smaller indoor pets that need feeding or basic care. Just ask and we can discuss any special arrangements needed for your pets! Currently, I have a flexible schedule and am open to entertaining and taking care of your pets from the early morning until the late afternoon hours. With any pet, I will take every precaution to ensure their utmost safety and the safety of any other animals or people we encounter. For any home or yard entered, doors or gates must remain closed and locked and will be triple-checked each time. I will have basic questions about each pet that I may need to know or be aware of to ensure the best experience all around.
About: I’ve been a pet lover my entire life, and as a proud Bichonpoo mom, I truly understand that our fur babies are our family. My experience spans the whole journey, from the high energy patience needed for puppy training to the gentle, specialized attention required for senior care and medication. I’m here to provide the same level of intuition and heartfelt devotion to your dogs that I’ve given my own pets for years! I work part-time in education, so my hours are from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM on weekdays. I am open to drop-in visits and/or dog walking. Whether I’m welcoming a pet into my home or visiting yours, I treat every animal with the same devotion that my husband and I give our own pup. In your home, your pet will enjoy a safe environment where I prioritize comfort, routine, and a warm atmosphere tailored to their specific personality. I like to focus on maintaining the familiarity of their space, ensuring every instruction from precise feeding schedules to play is followed to the letter so they feel secure while you're away.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family. I’m gentle, patient, and love getting to know each pet’s unique personality—whether that’s lots of playtime, long walks, or just some company while they nap. I’m also super detail-oriented and make sure they’re safe, happy, and well taken care of the entire time we’re together. I have a pretty flexible schedule and love starting my day with walks or spending time outdoors, so pet care fits in perfectly. I’m naturally active and love being around animals, so whether it’s drop-ins, playtime, or walks, it doesn’t feel like “work”—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and make time for. I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for whether we’re at my place or yours. I always follow your routines and preferences exactly.
Rancho Del Rey pet parents share their Rover experiences
Here's a review you can use for your pet sitter: I am grateful for the care my dog and cat received during their time with Elissa. My fur babies were happy and well-cared for, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!"

Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.

Carmen is an amazing dog sitter! She came to our home twice a day and took wonderful care of our two dogs. Even our Frenchie, who is usually very skittish around new people, completely fell in love with her. You can tell she truly loves animals — she was patient, caring, and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and comfortable. We felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Highly recommend Carmen to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and genuinely devoted to pets. Our dogs fell so in love with her that we’re pretty sure they were disappointed when they saw us walk through the door instead of her! 😅 🤣

DO NOT HESITATE TO BOOK! This is Terry and I’s 2nd time working with Janetta and I literally have no complaints. My favorite part of working with Janetta is the fact she cares for my son as if he was hers. Her communication….chefs kiss! She is very punctual and respectful of my home as well. She truly goes above and beyond of the tasks asked of her, and we couldn't be more grateful to have the ability to book with a sitter like her!
