“Orbit had a great time! So much so that he’s currently passed out in the hallway and couldn’t even make it to his comfy spot in the living room 😂 Although he has stayed at larger industrial style doggy daycares, we were looking for a more personalized homey place for him. This was Orbit’s first day stay with Nina and Bryan and they have been so wonderful through the whole process! It really felt like they took him right on in as though he was one of theirs. Nina has been patient and very nice with my overthinking self, and their setup is great for the dogs to have plenty of space to play and/or lounge.”


“Sam made our first doggy daycare experience super easy! You can tell he really cares about each dog that he hosts and he was wonderful with my very anxious Vizsla. We got multiple pictures and updates throughout the day, which helped put us at ease. He’s got a great yard for the dogs to play in. Highly recommend!”

“Andre was great! Booked him on short notice, felt so comfortable leaving my boys with him. Our Adonis is recovering from surgery and he accommodated to his needs. Will definitely use his service again!”

“Genevieve and her husband are INCREDIBLE! We are so thankful that we found them. Our pup had a blast with willow and Genevieve and her husband were so kind and communicative. They sent us great pics of our boy playing and taking naps which put our minds at ease. We will definitely be coming back for day care and overnights! Thank you SO much!”

“Melanie did a wonderful job watching my pup. She gave consistent updates and my pup was relaxed and appeared to be well rested when I picked her up which is the best thing I can ask for … I would definitely rebook Melanie!”

“Great communication. Tom is my first Rover dog sitter and he is definitely setting a high bar. My boy did not want to say goodbye…he obviously liked him. I will definitely use Tom again.”

“My pup appeared happy to be with Alvin and was well taken cared of. Alvin also went above and beyond when i requested to board on a short notice. He’s also very pleasant and made my anxious boy at ease. I will definitely book him again in the future!”

“Lucia is so great! She watched my senior dog while I was at work and sent me plenty of updates including outdoor walks and napping photos. She immediately bonded with my boy and was very kind to him. I felt safe leaving him with Lucia so he had a buddy during my time away. Will book again!”

About: As a fellow dog parent, I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog. I care for every pup like they’re my own! With patience, love, and lots of attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Whether your dog is full of energy or just wants some company, I adapt to their needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily accommodate dog walking, drop-ins, or extended stays throughout the day. Since I already care for my own dog, pet care is a natural part of my daily routine: walks, playtime, and attention are built into my day! When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where dogs feel relaxed and happy. I provide plenty of playtime, regular walks, and lots of cuddles, making sure each dog’s needs and routines are followed closely. Since I have my own dog, your pet will also get social time and companionship. If I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain your dog’s usual schedule for feeding, walking, and play. I keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for even when you’re away.
“Alyssa was fantastic! She responded promptly, she provided great care and feedback, she has a great setup, and I'm looking to book her again this week and beyond!”

“My precious PugZ took an immediate liking to Rachelle. She sent plenty of pictures and updates. I’d definitely have Rachelle care for PugZ again and highly recommend her services”


About: LOVE ANIMALS!!! Farm-girl with a big heart all animals of all sizes and personalities, grew up with dogs, cats and many farm animals in my life, which made it better. Hope when you read my profile, you will feel a sense that I am a caring person who will take care of your "family member" as if they were mine! If I had the financial ability, I would rescue animals from abusive situations, it breaks my heart to hear of animals being mistreated! God made animals to help human beings be the best they can be. Your pet will have free range in my spacious apartment and patio. I am retired now and can give your fur baby a lot of love and attention. My days are usually relaxing and not gone for long periods of time so your pet will not be lonely. A lot of attention is given to your fur babies during their visits. Many walks, play time and potty breaks will be given daily. Whatever is needed to have your fur baby comfortable and safe, I will accommodate.
“Every pet parent’s wish is that their fur child gets the same love and care at a sitter’s as they do at home. Ann provides exactly that. She is responsible (arranges meet and greets of all dogs she cares for) and adheres to all provided care instructions as well as send picture/video updates throughout the day. I love that dogs are allowed to roam free in her house as it provides a more “home-like” environment compared to other typical boarding facilities. She is great to communicate with regarding scheduling and understanding when emergencies come up. Ann has been my dog Ollie’s go to daycare and boarding service for the past two years. But honestly, she’s gone above and beyond to be more than that. Ollie enjoys spending time at her house and even gets invited to her dog’s birthday party every year. We honestly can’t recommend her enough!”

“Ruby had a great time! Thank you Jason for the walks and cuddles with Ruby and all the sweet pictures! It was comforting to know she was being well taken care of while I spent the afternoon sightseeing.”

“Shaghayegh is absolutely fantastic! She treated my dog, like one of her own, sending regular updates with photos and always making sure he was well-exercised and happy. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such loving care, and will definitely be using her again for future pet sitting needs.”

“Mrs. Shyrah is awesome! I brought my 2 dogs - Athena (Rottweiler) and Ava (Chihuahua/Dachshund) - to her care, and despite them both being very shy of new people, I was told they did wonderfully, they were so calm and friendly to her at her home. She let both of them feel welcome and let them acclimate to the environment at their own pace. She often sent me pictures and updated me on how they were, which was so great to see. I will 100% be booking Mrs. Shyrah again in the nearby future for all daycare and overnight stays! She’s awesome and my dogs love her! 💕”

“Kylie is very responsive and communicates well, which I appreciate. My dog enjoys his days playing with their 2 dogs and others they care for. I’ll definitely continue using their services.”

“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Serra Mesa
I reached out on short notice needing a sitter for my Belgian Malinois mix and honestly wasn’t sure who’d be up for it, mals are a lot. High energy, smart, need real exercise and mental stimulation or they get destructive/anxious. Derya didn’t just tolerate that, they clearly got it. My dog came home tired in the best way and completely unstressed, which tells me they were actually engaged and working with her energy instead of just containing it. She also sent photos and videos constantly throughout the visit, I always knew exactly what she was up to and could tell she was genuinely having a good time, not just being watched. That kind of communication is huge, especially when you’re booking last minute and a little anxious about leaving a dog like this with someone new. On top of that, they pulled it together on very short notice without missing a beat communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with working breed temperaments, not just easy lapdogs. If you’ve got a dog that’s “too much” for the average sitter, this is who you want. Already planning to book again

Lucia is so great! She watched my senior dog while I was at work and sent me plenty of updates including outdoor walks and napping photos. She immediately bonded with my boy and was very kind to him. I felt safe leaving him with Lucia so he had a buddy during my time away. Will book again!

Jessica has been absolutely amazing! As a travel healthcare worker starting at a new facility in San Diego, my schedule has been changing constantly, and she has been incredibly flexible, accommodating, and easy to work with. It has taken so much stress off my plate knowing Broly is in such great hands. This morning I completely forgot his bag with his food and leash, and without hesitation she offered to pick up the mobile order I placed so he had everything he needed. She was an absolute lifesaver! It’s clear she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and I always feel confident leaving Broly with her. I can’t recommend her enough, and we’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Sam is absolutely amazing! He truly understands dogs and introduces all the dogs in his care in a safe way so that they can all play all day in harmony. I’m so glad that we found him and that when we go away we have a trustworthy place for our girl to stay most importantly, thrive! She’s never come back to us anxious as she always did at larger boarding facilities. Thank you so so much Sam!
