Paige was great! We came to San Diego with our pups on a trip and wanted to spend extra time away from our airbnb. She gave them some company and let them out. She sent me pictures while she was there and made us feel comfortable being away from our babies longer. Thank you!!

Vanessa is the G.O.A.T.! I was worried about leaving my older dog behind for five days, as her only interest in life besides food is ME. The dog and I have a pretty codependent relationship. But Vanessa was not only super responsible with visits, walks, and food, I could see in videos that my dog was warming up to her and even looking forward to seeing her. Vanessa kindly sent me lots of reassuring photos and videos, which made a big difference. And on return my dog looked calm and healthy. Vanessa's care made all the difference. She's fantastic. THANK YOU VANESSA!

About: Hi! I’m Jenna — a medical professional and lifelong animal lover with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. I grew up in the country helping care for rescued and abandoned dogs and cats, which made me comfortable early on with animals of all temperaments and needs. I’ve continued that passion through shelter volunteering and fostering, and I currently have two senior dogs of my own—so I truly understand the importance of patience, routine, and attentive care. With my medical background, I’m confident administering medications, assisting with post-operative care, and recognizing early signs when something may be off. I’m calm, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I treat every pet like my own. Available at any time. I’m an early bird and have no problem staying up later. Very flexible timing with notice. Shoot me your needs and we can discuss! I have several cats and two senior dogs, and I’ve fostered and rehomed countless kittens over the years. I’m comfortable caring for pets of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. Having a senior dog with arthritis, I understand the importance of mobility limitations, routine, and adapting care to each pet’s specific needs. I’m also mindful of environmental factors like heat, activity level, and social settings—especially for dogs who may be more sensitive or not as well-adjusted. Friends with more temperamental or anxious dogs often trust me to care for their pets because of my calm and patient approach. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra support. I’m comfortable with: Administering oral medications Post-operative and recovery care Senior pet care and mobility needs High-energy and anxious pets Multi-pet households I take a personalized approach with every pet—whether that means a long walk, a slower pace, or simply extra attention and reassurance to help them feel safe and comfortable.

We were very happy to have Olivia take care of our kitties! She came by each day and made sure they were taken care of and given some extra attention while we were away! We could relax knowing they were in good hands.

Britny is an outstanding dog walker! She took great care of Gigi, taking her on walks and even bringing her to the dog park. She kept me updated with photos and was very communicative and flexible with scheduling. I highly recommend Britny for both dog walking and drop-in visits!

About: Hello! I’m a dedicated cat and dog mom with years of experience caring for animals of all kinds. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and cats with every personality type. Friends and family have called me an “animal whisperer” my whole life — if you can’t find me at a gathering, I’m probably hanging out with the pets! I truly treat every animal like my own and always strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a fun walk, playtime, cuddles, or just a reliable drop-in visit, you can feel confident they’ll be getting the best care possible. I’m currently available for walks and drop-ins and would love the opportunity to meet your babies!

I'm very pleased with the experience. I haven't left these cats with anyone before so I was of course a little anxious. The fact that one is an indoor cat and the other is a outdoor cat added a whole new level of attention needed and you managed that beautifully. I would definitely recommend Heather to anyone that needs your services

Annie was an amazing person to take care of my dog. Annie was very responsive and letting me know when they were available as well as all the updates. I needed to know that my dog was taken care of. When my dog was injured, I had special circumstances that Annie needed to follow and she did so With a positive attitude. I would recommend any for any pet parent.

Jazmin is amazing. She had excellent communication before and after visits with my kitty. She took photos and wrote the most detailed and sweet notes after each stay. I knew my kitty was safe in her care which gives me so much peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using her again in the future! Thanks so much!

About: As an animal lover, I’ve grown up with all sorts of critters for my entire life (dogs, cats, birds, and even a pot belly pig – oh my!). One day I’d like to have an animal sanctuary. My favorite thing is getting to know a pet and making them feel safe and comfortable while I’m taking care of them. Pet care is a daily part of my life already since I have a couple of senior fur babies at home! I have a flexible work schedule so I can always make sure that I’m a part of your pet’s day when I’m taking care of them. Trust is a big part of hiring a pet sitter. For walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow any instructions a pet parent gives me with walking, feeding, and behavior. I’ll make sure that every pet gets extra love while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m Hanna. I am a responsible and attentive animal lover who truly cares about your pet’s wellbeing and happiness. When I was a child, I had a golden retriever puppy named Rollie, who I adored. As Rollie aged, I learned to be particularly gentle and attentive to her. Because of that experience, I feel comfortable taking care of older dogs. On the other side of the spectrum, I am also comfortable taking care of puppies! After Rollie passed, I adopted an energetic and quirky puppy from the local humane society and we shared 12 beautiful years together. I have also cared for neighbors’ pets, past roommates’ pets, and other clients’ pets for more than a decade. I have even used pet sitting platforms while traveling abroad to have some creature comfort/ extra spending money. I do not currently have any pets due to my lease so I find rover to be a very mutually beneficial platform ;) I strive to provide excellent care all around and it would be an honor to be trusted in caring for your best friend. Thank you for the consideration. My schedule looks very different day by day and even week to week but my flexibility allows me to be versatile in caring for your critters. I always make sure to keep an attentive a watchful eye over the pets in my care. I make sure to send lots of updates and pictures via text!

We have had Michelle check on our little kitty several times now and she does a wonderful job. He’s not the most friendly cat but he seems to like her pretty well (which is much better than how he feels about most people 😂). She takes great care of him, sends good pics, and provides detailed updates!

Jennifer was absolutely phenomenal with our cat, Seaweed, while we were away. 💛 She was thoughtful, proactive, warm, and incredibly reassuring from start to finish. For each visit, she sent detailed updates, adorable photos/videos (😭😍), and little observations about Seaweed’s personality/behavior that made it SO clear she genuinely cared and was paying close attention to her. One of our biggest concerns while traveling is Seaweed’s medication administration (she requires an oral pill twice daily), and Jennifer handled this flawlessly. Not only did she successfully administer her meds as needed, but she also kept us informed on what worked best along the way, making the entire process feel low-stress, thoughtful, and intentional. Having someone we fully trusted while away gave us so much peace of mind. Jennifer went above and beyond, and we would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone looking for a caring, patient, attentive, and reliable sitter for their pet(s). We’ll absolutely be booking with her again in the future. Thanks again, Jennifer!!! 🙏❤️
