About: I’ve been pet sitting for the last 13 years! Throughout my life I’ve owned and adopted 3 dogs, as well as serving as my friends/family go to sitter! I am extremely responsible and absolutely love all animals! I am self employed, so my hours are very flexible and I can easily fit work in around pet sitting needs/hours! My schedule is very easy to adjust and change according to the needs of each day. I can easily care for your pet in uour home, as I understand sometimes pets are more comfortable in a familiar environment. I am very timely so will always be there on time for feeding and walking or check ins/play time.

“Garrett has been awesome! Super reliable, smooth communication, nice guy and clearly loves dogs. Our dog Chloe is in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Mark is super nice, professional, mature and trustworthy. This was our first Rover experience so we were a bit skeptical about the type of person we were entrusting with our beloved Westie. Mark gladly agreed to meet with us which gave us a chance to get to know him. So far we have used him for about 8-10 walks and we are super pleased with him and with Rover.”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who truly can’t imagine life without animals. I grew up on a cattle ranch surrounded by dogs and cats so caring for animals has always been second nature to me. From raising puppies to loving senior dogs through their golden years, I’ve experienced every stage and I cherish them all. I grew up with two Labradors and a Chesapeake Bay Retriever and I currently have an 8 yr old rescue chiweenie from Mexico and a 13 yr old goldendoodle. Caring for a senior dog has given me a deep understanding of patience, attentiveness, and gentle care. For the past 7 years, I’ve also volunteered with 2 local dog rescues which has given me extensive experience with all types of dogs including those who are reactive, anxious or strong leash pullers. I’m comfortable administering medication and always approach each dog with a calm and loving energy. I treat every dog like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe and completely loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks and jogs, or prefers slow sniff filled strolls or cozy cuddle time at home, I’m happy to meet them exactly where they are. I’m reliable, punctual, and communicative and I’ll always keep you updated with lots of photos and messages so you feel connected and at ease. My goal is to become your go-to, trusted dog walker and someone your dog gets genuinely excited to see! I truly love dogs so much and I can’t wait to meet yours 🤍 I currently have a very flexible schedule which allows me to be fully present during my time with dog. I'm available weekday or weekend care. Safety and trust are everything to me. I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can care for them just like you would. On walks, I stay alert and mindful, with experience handling reactive or strong leash pullers, always prioritizing their safety. In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and consistent while making sure water is full, feeding routines are followed, and medications are given if needed. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you feel at ease, knowing your dog is safe, happy, and truly cared for ◡̈

“Jacob was so awesome with my dog. She loved him immediately. I could tell bc she had the zoomies on their second walk together. Couldn’t recommend Jacob highly enough!”

About: Before officially becoming a pet sitter, I had many years of taking care of my family’s dog as well as my extended family’s dog. I have over two years of being a Rover sitter in New York, and about a year on the West Coast. I have had a lot of experience walking dogs in San Francisco and am looking forward to transitioning to San Diego now. I have had over 20 dogs for overnight stays, as well as a few cats, when I was in NY. Many of them became recurring clients and we formed a really sweet bond. I currently live in La Mesa and sometimes visit Encinitas area. I value honesty and kind communication and I have a deep sense of responsibility for taking care of animals. I’m happy to also keep you updated on your pet’s activity with photos of it all so that you know they are comfortable, safe and well-cared for. I can provide photo updates upon arrival, during our time together, and just before leaving. I can accommodate an extra walk here and there, especially in the afternoons but occasionally mornings on weekends. I have my own pup and will be in grad school starting this Fall as well as working part-time. It's important to me that each walk is safe from beginning to end, so your dog will be greeted with care and awareness of "escape artists", and safe with me throughout their experience by being securely leashed and by actively listening to their needs as they arise.

“Lyndsey was great!. Although I didn’t meet her I was grateful she could let Teddy out with her busy schedule She was flexible with walk times, posted pictures of my pup and was communicative on the app which is awesome ! As a fellow nurse I felt safe having her come to our place and walk Teddy - I will def use her again!”

About: I've owned cats and dogs and have taken care of other people's pets for many years. I enjoy connecting with animals and making sure they are at ease while in my care and also have a great time. I work from home as a web developer so I'm able to fit pet care easily around a pet's particular schedule. Most of my web client work occurs in the afternoon so I'm most available to walk and feed your pet in the morning, early afternoon, and evenings. With my flexible schedule I am able to spend ample time with your pet and tend to any specific needs they may have. I don't mind taking extra time and care to make your pet as comfortable as possible while you are away.

About: “I’ve been caring for my own three dogs for over 13 years, giving me extensive hands-on experience with feeding, walking, grooming, and basic training. Over the years, I’ve learned how to understand different dog personalities, recognize their needs, and make them feel safe, loved, and happy. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or simply providing companionship, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and treating them like part of my family. I am currently working part time. I am available to provide pet care every day — morning and afternoon — including walks, feeding, and playtime. “In my home, I make sure every pet feels comfortable and safe. I provide a clean, cozy space, fresh water, regular feeding, and plenty of playtime and walks. I follow each owner’s routine closely to make pets feel right at home and keep them happy and relaxed.”

“Azucena was tremendous as a dog walker. She was always on time, incredibly reliable and very kind. She takes her job very seriously and was very helpful to us during a two month period in which we could not walk our dog. We would definitely work with her again in the future.”

About: I have over 15 years experience caring for dogs of various breads, puppies thru senior care, various personalities, and environments. Lifelong animal lover with a flexible schedule, dedicated to giving your pets the absolute best care, attention, and love they deserve. I have an incredibly open and flexible schedule. I can easily accommodate a variety of activities, daytime and/or nighttime walks, check-ins, overnight sitting, and much more. I have reliable transportation, dependable, and trustworthy. Safety is always my absolute top priority. I keep a very close eye on the animals at all times, follow your exact feeding and medication instructions , and make sure your pets feel completely comfortable, safe, secure, and deeply loved.

About: I can understand the sometimes uneasy feeling of leaving your four legged family member with someone else. That’s where I come in! I will be your pet’s new best friend and take care of them with the love and care that I would for my own - making sure runners don’t escape, that your daschund is picked up mindfully of their back, your maltipoo’s coat is maintained, your anxious dog is approached with gentleness and patience. No pet care is one-size-fits all and I will customize your pet’s experience to their individualized needs and desires. I have over 10 years of experience with dog sitting both large and small dogs. Behavioral correction is the priority and I may be a small person, but if your dog pulls, I can lift 145+ lbs. I have experience from training puppies all the way up to senior dog care. I can care for senior dogs and accommodate to any mobility issues as well! I care for the safety and emotional wellbeing of all animals and provide compassionate care. I’m excited to meet my new friend! Let me know if there any questions or concerns I can address and we can work on a game plan for your little one. Depending on the day I may be available throughout the morning/afternoon/evening. Generally house sitting is available every day. Weekend availability varies but I can be accommodating based on scheduling requirements. I offer care in the client’s home only as of right now, and can provide excursions for extra enrichment as needed. I can help with exercising active dogs in an effective manner this way.

“Mckinley was wonderful and took very good care of my girls!! Very responsive and can’t wait to use her again!”
