About: Hi! I’ve been dog sitting for over 8 years and have had dogs my entire life. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love caring for them. I’m experienced with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I do my best to provide dependable care, lots of attention, and updates while you’re away. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own! I work as a hairstylist, so I’m typically away for 4–8 hours during the day and may not be available for midday potty breaks on workdays. However, outside of work I’m home often and love spending quality time with the pets I care for. I’m reliable, attentive, and always do my best to keep pets on their normal routine as much as possible. I always respect my client’s home and keep it clean and secure while providing dependable care and plenty of attention for their pets. I also provide updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind while they’re away.
“Danielle has been great with my pups! I could tell from the pics and video that they were comfortable around her and having fun on the drop in visit. I would for sure use Danielle again to come take care of them during the day!”
“Luciana made time during her busy schedule for a final visit before her big stay coming up next month with our two fur babies. We spent the hour reviewing care instructions for our two dogs while will be away, Luciana took meticulous notes, asked great questions, and identified items we hadn't thought of that will certainly come up during her stay. She also prioritized making sure we agreed on a emergency plan should the need arise. We are feeling very relaxed and at ease about leaving our girls in Luciana's kind and careful hands while we are away.”
“Celine was so great with our dog Charlie! She was very communicative and friendly! Our dog loved her. We felt comfortable leaving Charlie at home knowing Celine would be checking on him for a drop in visit. We would love to use her services again!”
About: I've worked at doggy daycares in the past, I've taken care of multiple friends' pets before, and I had the absolute pleasure of raising my own dog from a puppy until her death at the age of 13. I work a full-time 8-5 job, but I love taking care of pets after work, during my breaks, or on the weekends. On weekends and after work, I will stay for as long as you wish me to. I always make sure to ask what the pets favorite toys are, their feeding schedule, any medications they need, and if they have a walking schedule. I make sure to take them out to use the bathroom as frequently as possible, and make sure that they have plenty of water.

“Jenny was very quick to respond and very communicative. I had to make a booking very last minute and she was super flexible and willing to squeeze in time for a meet and greet. Very nice and sweet and patient with my cat Venus. Overall wonderful, would highly recommend and would book again.”
“Michelle was outstanding! She communicated well, showed up on time, and followed my instructions perfectly. Michelle has a way with animals and even my very shy cat had warmed up to her by the end of the visit. I will definitely be booking Michelle again in the future.”

“Sara is consistently the best pet sitter I’ve ever had. I am always relieved when she is available to care for my cats. I would recommend her to absolutely anyone!”
Sorrento Valley pet parents share their Rover experiences
Michelle was awesome! Immediately offered to do a meet and greet which was so reassuring to me, followed my instructions well and took great care of Kaju! Kaju opened up to her immediately which is rare since she is so shy, and I'm very satisfied with her care!
Audrey was great with our cats once again!! Applied topical meds to our lady's ears with no issue at all. The cats got plenty of plays and photo opportunities. Audrey is always super communicative and gives thorough recaps every day. We look forward to seeing the Audrey Notes when we are out of town!!
This is my first time having Sara watch my (diva) fur baby, Luna. Sara was great! She was able to step in, last minute, under non-ideal circumstances and she not only did a fantastic job (with lots of photo updates!) but Luna seemed to really like her. Luna is a nervous cat, and can sometimes be “aggressive” if she doesn’t know someone - but she was rubbing up against Sara’s leg like they’ve been best buddies for years! Will definitely keep her in the books!
Min was fantastic with our cat Nyx. Our cat is usually very shy but Min was able to bring her out of her shell and really bond with her. She was very punctual and was very lovely with Nyx, she played with her and took care of her really well. You wouldn’t go wrong if you pick her to take care of your fur babies.
Again Aayushi was nothing but the best! Aayushi is always my #1 choice when it comes to picking a dog sitter! She gives me peace of mind when leaving Lola with her and I never have to worry about being away. If you have a dog with any kind of needs Aayushi is great at accommodating to them!
It was my first time hiring a cat sitter through Rover app, so I was pretty nervous at first. Devon made the whole experience so much easier with great communication, reliable care and regular photo updates of my cats. Thanks to her again for taking such a wonderful care of Jelly.
We love Kylee - she's been with our cat multiple times and always takes great care of her (and gives great love!). She was able to troubleshoot with us when access to our apartment got blocked to make sure she was still able to get in - very reliable, thorough and sweet!
We really loved Joy. As first time pet owners, we were very nervous about leaving our kitten for a week. Upon meeting Joy, our minds were immediately put at ease. She was professional, detailed, and thoughtful. She was very proactive and made sure our keys worked, we had insurance/vet records available, and she knew exactly what we wanted done for our kitten. While we were on vacation, she gave us daily updates with pictures. She went above and beyond to take out the litter in her own bags, refill our cat’s water fountain and play with our cat for longer than we expected. You can tell she truly loves and cares about pets. It was the most pleasant surprise to come home after vacation and see that she gave our kitten extra treats and a toy. We appreciate Joy so much and give her the highest recommendations to anyone who needs a pet sitter!
