About: Hi, I’m Galina! Animals have been the biggest passion through out my life. I currently have one small dog named Pockets but I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and temperaments and with cats too! I am a part time dance teacher for children and love to spend the rest of my time caring for animals. I offer house sittings, walks, and drop in feedings & play time. I fully ensure your loved fur babies are always safe in my care and handled appropriately around any other animals. I make sure they're walked, get LOTS of one on one play time, treats (as appropriate), and as much love and belly rubs as they can take! As a dog parent myself, I love photos of my pets and always send photos and updates for you to put your mind at ease while you are away from your pets. I am happy to watch your pets in your home or in mine. When I pet sit or do walks/check ins at your house, I am always responsible and clean, leaving your home neat, tidy, and cleaner than when you left! Also happy to offer plant watering, mail pick up, or anything else you need when I'm at your home, even if it's just a drop in visit. I treat your pets like they are my own because I love all animals!! I'll make sure they feel they have a new best friend, lots of play time, endless attention, and the safest care. I work part time as a dance teacher for children and the rest of my time is spent caring for animals and hanging out with my pup! I always make sure each pet is given a lot of love and all instructions for each pet is carefully followed. I’m always aware of each pet’s surrounding to make sure they are comfortable and safe.
“Irene is fantastic. She was very patient with our large 95 lb dog, who is gentle but shy with new people. She formed a nice bond with her, and was extremely reliable and always communicated and verified the drop-ins, as they changed every week over our 10 week period. Irene takes great pictures and provides excellent reports. She does not hesitate to reach out if she has a question or concern during her drop ins. We are looking forward to having Irene visit our girl again.”

About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life! Even though my own dogs have passed away a few years ago, my love for dogs has never changed. Since then, I’ve regularly taken care of my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel happy and loved while their families went on vacation. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I’ll provide patient, reliable care while keeping you updated with photos and messages for your peace of mind. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or simply companionship. I’m available on weekdays, weekends, and holidays with flexible scheduling. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow your instructions, including feeding schedules, medications (if needed), exercise routines, and any special needs. I’ll treat your home with respect, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

“Kailyr is a caring, attentive, and responsive sitter! One of my boys needed medication while I was away and she was able to give it to him no problem. You can tell she truly cared for my cats and is an animal lover. Would love to book with her again!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of patience, attention, and personalized care I give every dog. With over 10 years of experience caring for my own dogs and those of friends and family, I've learned that every pup has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior dogs, including those who are blind or hard of hearing. I'm comfortable adapting my approach to meet each dog's individual needs, whether that means providing a calm environment, sticking to a consistent routine, or offering extra patience and reassurance. I treat every dog as if they were my own, and I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident while they're away. That's why I provide reliable communication, regular photo updates, and plenty of love, playtime, and attention so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in caring hands. Since I'm not currently working, I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate my time and attention to the pets in my care. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I enjoy building my daily routine around each dog's individual needs, whether they have a high-energy schedule, prefer a slower pace, or need extra patience and attention. My goal is to give every pet a safe, loving environment where they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their family is away. When your dog stays with me, they'll be treated like part of the family. I provide a safe, loving environment where they'll receive plenty of attention, affection, and exercise throughout the day. I live in an apartment with lots of grassy areas for potty breaks, and I'm right next to the San Diego Creek Trail, which is perfect for walks and getting fresh air. I'll follow your dog's usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, medications, and any special instructions you provide. Dogs are welcome to make themselves at home! They're more than welcome on my couch and can sleep in my bed if that's what they prefer. I love spending quality time with dogs, whether that means going on walks, playing, giving belly rubs and scratches, or cuddling up if they enjoy snuggles. At the same time, I understand that every dog is different, so if your pup prefers their own space, I'll always respect their boundaries and let them relax at their own pace. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable, loved, and at home while giving you peace of mind that they're receiving the same care and affection I'd give my own pet.
“I needed someone to play with my super energetic cat (Skooma) while I have to be away. Skooma loves her and follows her around during her visits. My old, grouchy cat (Bidoof) usually hides when people come in but she seems to stay visible when Victoria is around which is an amazing thing for Bidoof. We love Victoria! She is super nice and accommodating, even when I needed to add a last minute day to her visiting schedule. 💖”

“Marcelle did amazing with Cokie! I was out of town for a few days and she kept me updated every visit and made sure Cokie was fed and happy! Will 100% recommend!!”

“This is our second time having Irina take care of our cat and both my cat and we love her so much! She not only followed our instructions feeding my cat and playing with him but she also cleaned up his food bowl and left our kitchen clean. Will definitely have her come again.”

“Rachel has been absolutely amazing! I have such a hard time leaving my pup, but I was stress free this wedding weekend while I got married because Rachel has been so nice and sweet & kept us updated constantly ! Thank you Rachel!”

About: Hello! I’m a dependable and responsible animal lover who enjoys helping pets stay comfortable and active. I understand how important reliability, communication, and trust are when someone is caring for your fur babies. I had the joy of being a mama to a cockapoo. I’ve also pet sat for family and friends. I just love being around animals. I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule and am primarily available weekday afternoons for walks and drop-in visits. I keep my service area local so I can remain reliable, punctual, and flexible. During walks and visits, I pay close attention to surroundings, leash safety, gates/doors, water needs, and any signs of stress or discomfort. I also respect each client’s home and treat it with the same level of care I would expect for my own.
“Sonomi was so wonderful with our dog! She was so attentive to his needs on all her visits and walks, and always updated us with pictures and videos each day. Will definitely have Somomi walk him again in the future :)”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous - Lauren was amazing! She went out of her way to be helpful and tend to the kitties needs, she spent time with them, she was on top of communication with me and sending photos. It put me at ease on my trip! Extremely grateful.”

“Kayla is a very delightful young lady. She took very good care of my babies. I would highly recommend her to anybody. She was efficient on time and just the total delight. She was a total package. She knew her stuff and she was very professional highly recommend her to anybody.”

“This was our first time being away from our kittens, and we were overjoyed that Jennie and Bennie were able to take such excellent care of them. We thoroughly enjoyed the detailed updates for each visit, complete with photos and videos that allowed us to stay connected to our kittens and have complete confidence that they were being well-fed and cared for while we were away.”

About: As a neurodivergent person, I am exceptionally attentive to your dog's needs. I connect with animals in a special way, and the relationship is always mutually beneficial. I am currently unemployed, but I go to the gym for an hour and a half 4 days a week. My schedule is open and flexible. I have a fenced in yard and one pet friendly dog to keep your companion company. I have air conditioning in my room if it gets too hot.
“This is my second time having Corey look after my 2 cats and i can’t recommend her enough ! She is incredibly thoughtful and will often bring her own toys to ensure the kittens get their play time and attention. She goes above and beyond in sending me detailed photos of their time together and always makes sure they have fresh food, water, and a clean litter box. Will be booking her again for my next weekend away !”

“Alyssa was extremely trustworthy and her communication was outstanding. She took care of my 2 cats for 2 weeks and did an amazing job. Pictures with every visit while making sure things were great. I’ll book her again for future stuff and recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.”


About: Apart from growing up with dogs and cats, I’ve been trusted since high school to dog sit, dog walk, cat sit, do animal related chores, and much more! I even work with a facility dog for my 9-5 job! I can assure you that your furry (or non-furry) friends are safe with me! 🐾 I work full-time during the week, so my walking and drop-in services start right after 6:00 PM onwards. If your pet needs evening companionship, a late-day walk, or bedtime potty breaks, I am your person! I am typically available all day on Saturdays and Sundays as well. Feel free to look at my calendar for more details or send me a message! I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes of cats and dogs. Crate trained, free-roaming, etc! I can do feeding time, potty breaks, play time, and walks around the neighborhood.
“Connie is seriously the best!!! She is so kind and patient. I can tell she has been doing this for a long time. I’m so happy we found Connie to dog sit on our puppy! I’ll definitely be using her again in the future!”

Amanda was amazing with our little man while we were away! You know your cat sitter means business when she brings her own cat toys! She sent plenty of photos and videos and even went above and beyond to help with an ant issue we were having. We’ll be asking her to cat sit again! 💚💜💚

Sabrina is so wonderful - she is so thorough, reliable, and professional. She’s so great with my cats and also goes above and beyond, taking care of my hermit crabs too. She sends detailed reports and adorable pictures every day which is so reassuring - my mind is totally at ease knowing that she’s watching my pets.

Yichen looked after our cats with great attention and care. She provided very detailed notes on each drop-in that she completed. Our kitty cats were spoiled with their special treat sachets and extra goodies we left for them too. We look forward to having Yichen care for them again in the future.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Anastasia is incredibly caring, attentive, and observant. She's always aware of her surroundings and pays close attention to the little things, which is exactly what you want in someone caring for your pets. She has the energy to keep up with active dogs, whether that's going for walks, playing fetch, or even running with them, and the patience to make shy or anxious pets feel comfortable. She'll treat your pets with genuine love and care, just like they're her own.

2nd time booking with Xiao, and she was just as great as before. Our cats were very relaxed and happy when we got back from our one-week trip. It was clear they were well taken care of, and we really enjoyed the daily photo updates. We’ll definitely book with her again!

Because of her experience, we had a peace of mind leaving Alvina to take care of our cats. She lovingly tended to our cats’ specific needs and was flexible when problems arose, ensuring that they are happy and well. A great pet sitter that went above and beyond!!
Samantha walked and played with my pup for 2 weeks while we were out of town. She was a very very reliable pet walker! She did SOOO WELL with my German Shepard and my kitty. She was always on time, would spend extra time with them and always checked their food and water for me! I would welcome her back to sit my pets anytime! Thank you so much Samantha:)

Rachel is a professional, caring, trustworthy, attentive and uber-responsible pet sitter. She is also personable, calm, compassionate and reliable. She took excellent care of our cat, Remy, who is older and quite shy and nervous around strangers. Rachel followed all feeding and medication instructions and sent us photos, as well as videos. She didn't rush the visits, always showing up on time, and my husband and I sincerely appreciated her detailed updates and notes. If you want peace of mind when you can't be home with your pet then call Rachel. We can't write enough good things or recommend her enough. We certainly understand why she has earned the great reviews and has so many repeat and loyal clients.
