“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“(Nanay) Pilar is a kind, sweet, and wonderful sitter. My family and I went on a 5-day vacation and left our beloved Rexie. She is always welcoming when we drop off or pick up Rexie. She also sends updates with cute pictures and always reassured us that he is okay and happy. We enjoyed our vacation worry-free knowing our dog was in good hands. Thank you, Auntie Pilar! We and Rexie are all glad we found you! ❤️”
“We're happy we chose Madison and Moses to watch Jerry. We got lots of pictures and it looked like he had a great time. They are great with communication and everything went smoothly.”
“Erica was so accommodating and helpful to me and treated my pup so well. I was able to take a small trip without worrying about Junie and her care. Erica sent me photos and updates of Junie's day while I was away. I plan to book with Erica again when the need arises.”
“What a great family. I took Jackson there for the first time, and he was so loved by everyone. I truly appreciate it when a sitter sends videos and updates and this family made sure they did. I will definitely be rebooking with this family time and time again.”
“Kaitlin and Verle did an amazing job of caring for our dog Punky! They were extremely proactive about getting to know Punky and her particular needs (separation anxiety, dog reactivity), and making sure we were comfortable with their apartment--which, by the way, seemed to be an ideal environment safe for a dog with easy access to a fenced patio. After picking up Punky, she has seemed happy and relaxed. Strongly recommended!”
“Highly recommend Trent! He recently took care of my dog, Momo, and did an incredible job. I was so grateful for his communication he constantly kept us updated and sent plenty of photos, so we knew Momo was in great hands and having a good time. Trent is reliable, caring, and professional. We will absolutely be booking with him again! When we are back in San Diego!”
About: I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for dogs! I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.
“Whitney did it again! We chose to go with her again because of her awesome care the first time around. She took care of our baby as if she was her own and we are so grateful. We feel like Whitney has earned our trust and we will definitely hope she’s available the next time around because as nerve racking as it is to place your animal in someone else’s hands, Whitney made me feel comfortable and sent me lots of cute pics along the way which I love! Thank you so much Whitney you’re the best!!!”
“Linda Jean is everything you could hope for in a Rover sitter. She took wonderful care of Lucy and gave detailed updates along with photos. Lucy was happy and comfortable when we picked her up. We’d love to have Linda Jean sit for us again.”
“Gwendolyn was AMAZING! This was our first time leaving our dogs with someone that wasn't familiar with them. I won't hesitate to leave them with Gwendolyn again! The daily updates were awesome! Wendy and Red seemed to feel like family and extremely comfortable. No issues with the transition home. Highly recommend Gwendolyn and her family.”
“My wife and I are were so pleased with the care Berenice provided for our 5 month old puppy Benji. She kept us updated with messages about his feeding times and sent us lots of pictures while we were out enjoying our wedding anniversary. As a first time dog owner and our first time using this Rover app, our experience was phenomenal and we felt blessed to have found such a loving and caring pet sitter for our puppy. Berenice is truly dedicated and passionate with the care she offers. We will definitely use her service next time we vacation down in San Diego. Our dog already misses her lol. We highly recommend her 125%”
“Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!”

“Vanessa took excellent care of my puppy, sending me photos and messages with updates on what he was doing. She let me know if he was eating or ready to sleep, which I really appreciated. I felt confident that my dog was in a comfortable environment and in good hands.”
“Terri is a true animal lover. She cared for my dog Lucy over the weekend. She took Lucy for plenty of walks and even took her to the lake a couple times. Baked her some dog treats and even sent her home with a batch. Plenty of pictures. We are very pleased.”
“Jay was great!! We was nervous at first and did not know how Princess would do since this was her first time being watched by someone outside of family. However, Jay was great with Princess and made sure we had pictures to ease our mind while we were out of the country! Princess will definitely be back!!”

“Maureen came to my place when I had to be away for an overnight trip. She took AMAZING care of my kitty Edmund by making sure he took his meds. She came armed with cat treats and a pill popper. I love how prepared she came. She is an experienced animal sitter and I will definitely book her again.”

“Cynthia is a lifesaver. She stepped in at the last minute to rescue my cat when I urgently needed a sitter. She followed all our instructions and sent lots of photos. Highly recommend her.”
“We have used Martha for both dog walking and drop in visits for our cats. She did a great job with both! I appreciate her thorough updates and numerous pictures she sends of our babies!”
“Gretchen was really great with Suni and spent some time with him outside. She sent photos and updates during the hour and put up with the process to kennel him when she was leaving. We would definitely book with her again.”
About: I have loved cats since I was a small child (my mom called me her little cat lady), and started petting sitting my friends’, family members’ and neighbors’ cats as a teenager. I got my first kitten after moving to San Diego, and he is now 10 years old. I am still very drawn to cats and deeply enjoy playing with and caring for them. I will love your kitty like they’re my own, and follow your care instructions with great attention to detail.
“CJ did a great job with the cats while I was gone for 10 days. He was able to come twice a day and hang out with them and give them the attention they needed. He updated me on everything and was easy to communicate with. He also shared great pictures from each visit! I came home to two happy cats.”
“Rachel was fantastic and did a fantastic job with our cats. She did everything we asked of her, stayed in contact with us, and did more than we asked, showing extra love to our disabled cat.”
“Alanis took such great care of my anxious older cat. She followed all my instructions (even those super specific ones we all have for our unique pets?), and she was wonderfully communicative before, during, and after all of her check-ins. I arrived home to a very happy and content kitty who'd clearly had all her needs met while I was away. Thank you so much, Alanis!”
About: Hi, I’m Ken 👋 I bring years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all temperaments, from playful pups to anxious and senior dogs who need a little extra patience. I’m a PAWS of Coronado Volunteer Behavior Training Level 1 graduate, and I’ve spent years volunteering in shelter environments where safety, calm handling, and compassion truly matter. I’ve also worked alongside canine police officers in training scenarios, giving me a strong foundation in reading dog behavior, maintaining control, and building trust through calm, consistent energy. Dogs tend to respond quickly to me — and both dogs and kids seem to sense that steady, grounded disposition. Every walk is about more than exercise. It’s about trust, structure, and care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and every client with the respect and reliability I’d expect for my own family. I maintain a structured weekly schedule so I can be dependable and fully present for each pet: • Mondays: Early mornings available (6:00–9:00 AM) Afternoon & evening available (2:30–10:00 PM) • Tuesdays: Available after 3:00 PM • Wednesdays: Available after 10:00 AM • Thursdays: Open availability • Fridays: Available after 4:00 PM • Weekends: Flexible availability I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, ensuring every walk or visit is calm, safe, and unhurried. How I Care for Pets Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks and drop-in visits, my approach is centered on safety, structure, and trust. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, temperament, and any training cues or boundaries already in place. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep things consistent, because dogs thrive on routine and calm leadership. I’m trained in reading body language and stress signals, which helps me adjust in real time and keep pets comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, organized, and low-impact. I leave the space as I found it and provide updates so owners feel informed and at ease. During walks, I prioritize safe leash handling, situational awareness, and positive reinforcement. I don’t rush walks — I allow time for exercise, enrichment, and mental stimulation. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual. Some dogs want adventure, others need reassurance. My goal is always the same: a calm, safe, and positive experience for both the pet and their owner.

“Berenice is the absolute best!!! And her Doggies Mango and Molly are so patient and precious!! I was very nervous about leaving my 3 month old Storm for the first time, but Berenice made me feel so comfortable. Storm had the best day in her care and I'll be a repeat customer on a consistent basis. Thank you for treating Storm like one of your own. Truly Top Quality!!”
“Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!”
“Jennifer (and her husband, Chris) were such wonderful caretakers to our dog, Odi! She was so receptive to texts and sent multiple pictures throughout the day to keep me updated on how he was doing. I honestly think he was a little bummed to come home after all the fun he had exploring, walking and playing with their sweet dog, Harper. I'm very grateful to have found them and Odi will be thrilled with another visit someday.”
About: Hi, I’m Alexis! I have experience with both cats and dogs sizes. I currently have four cats of my own, so I understand different personalities and needs. I offer patient care, whether your pet is shy, playful, or senior. I’m here to provide walks, feeding, litter box cleaning, and check-ins with love and care. I am happy to help with walks, feeding, or check-ins in the mornings, afternoons and evenings. Feel free to message me with any questions or to check my availability.

I will follow all client instructions carefully, whether it’s feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, or making sure doors and gates are secure. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners by being respectful, reliable, and keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable in their own space.
“Thank you so much for the quick response time and taking care of Cairo at the last minute! The ability to have Cairo picked up was also super helpful! Cairo enjoyed his stay and I loved the pics that were sent. We will definitely be using your services again in the future!”
“We couldn't have been happier with everything, from how quick and responsive Erica was to our first inquiry, to her professionalism asking questions about our two dogs and their needs. Our pooches came back calm and happy. Thank you again, Erica!”
About: Hi! My name is Isabelle. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for at least 10 years! I miss having dogs around so I will love yours like my own.

“Mark, Christina, and Cody! Thank you for taking such good care of our babies. They love you so much. You're just beautiful people. I left them with you with absolutely no worries. Thank you for the daily updates and the cutest pictures! I can't say enough wonderful things about y'all. Our babies were in loving, caring hands always. I highly recommend you. And I know Sage and Noir would love to see you again!”
“Virginia is an amazing pet sitter. She truly cares for the animals and the clients she is working with. She follows instructions well and gives updates daily and answers questions or concerns in a timely manner. She gave me peace of mind while I was away. 5 stars.”
“Couldn’t have asked for a better place to leave my dogs for the day. Neither of them had been to “daycare” before and it made all the difference to have such a well maintained, open space to explore and relax in. They were immediately excited to explore and didn’t even notice that I left. Dawn is so clearly calm and competent, I didn’t worry at all while I was gone. One of my dogs wanted to be in the house and spent a lot of time sleeping on her bed, and Dawn was kind enough to let her hang out there. The best sign they were happy and comfortable: one dog has separation anxiety, and when I came to pick them up, she was excited to greet me, but then immediately turned around and went back into the yard, explored more, then asked to be let into the house. I don’t live in the area but will definitely book again if I’m back.”
About: Hey! My name is Chris… also known as Cherry’s Dad. I am very enthusiastic about people’s pets, have had dogs my entire life and will continue to be a dog person forever and ever. Fun fact: my mom owns a dog grooming shop in LA! I’ve worked a lot in the shop and have handled literally hundreds of pet dogs. After 15 years in corporate, I’m now a Business owner with flexibility in my schedule. I walk my own pet 3 times a day, and frequently take breaks to complete my put duties! At home, I pay attention to the dogs signals and adjust accordingly - are they happy? Nervous? Thirsty? Whining? I speak pretty good dog by listening. During walks, I never allow strangers, especially children, to approach someone’s dog I am in control of who isn’t mine.
“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”
About: Hi, I’m Emily - a life long dog lover who's had pups most of my life, including my sweet Pomeranian who lived to 19 years old.

“Ben and Luke were great with Penny and she had such a great time with them! She had a blast playing with their 4 other fur babies. We'll definitely be a returning client. Thank you Ben and Luke for taking such great care of our baby.”
About: I have extensive, hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals, ranging from household pets to farm and ranch animals. I grew up on a 7-acre property where I was constantly surrounded by animals, which gave me a strong foundation in animal care, behavior, and responsibility. I also spent time as a competitive horseback rider, which provided additional experience working closely with horses and other large animals. Alongside farm experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, as well as cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, and other small animals. I currently have two large senior dogs—a Boxer and a Shepherd/Husky mix—who I’ve raised since they were puppies, giving me experience with everything from early training to senior care. I’m familiar with the unique care needs of smaller animals as well. I also have a two-year-old daughter who is very gentle and animal-loving, and she enjoys being around and helping with daily pet care and walks when appropriate. Because she will often be with me, I kindly ask that you let me know if your pets are comfortable around children so I can ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone involved. My goal is always to provide safe, loving, and reliable care so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away, knowing your pets are treated like family. My schedule is flexible since I am a stay-at-home mom caring for my two-year-old daughter. This allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day, with availability for morning, afternoon, and some evening visits depending on your pet’s needs. Because I am home most of the time, I am able to adjust my routine to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, check-ins, and any special care instructions your pet may have. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you’ll always know when I’m arriving and how your pet is doing. While I do have my daughter with me, I am intentional about only accepting bookings where I can ensure a safe, calm, and positive experience for both your pet and your home. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, comfortable environment. I make sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any special instructions. I take time to understand each animal’s personality and needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. In client homes, I treat the space with the same respect I would my own—keeping everything clean, secure, and exactly as I found it. I am reliable, communicative, and always mindful of both the pet’s comfort and the owner’s peace of mind. In my own home, pets are cared for in a structured, calm environment alongside my two senior dogs. I maintain a clean and organized space where animals can feel safe and relaxed. My goal is to build trust with both pets and their owners by providing consistent, attentive, and compassionate care every time.
About: Hi Friends 🥰💕(human and furry) I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I have a friendly 10-month-old Maltipoo who gets along great with other dogs, and I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for every pup who stays with us. I’m comfortable with puppies, dogs who need a little extra patience, and pets who follow specific routines. I’m very attentive to behavior, body language, and comfort levels, and I always make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and included. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am available to supervise, play with, and care for your pup. I offer boarding, day care, walks, and plenty of outdoors. Your dog will always have company and consistent attention while they’re with me. ☺️ I live in a home with a fenced yard, baby gates for safety, and plenty of space for supervised play. I give frequent potty breaks, enrichment activities, and walks depending on your dog’s needs. 🐕 🐾 I send regular photo and video updates so you always know how your fur baby is doing. Reliability and communication are important, I treat every dog like my own.
About: Growing up I have always had dogs on the property and consider them part of the family. I believe a well trained dog is loved by its owner. I am an animal lover who want to help those who have a hard time with placement. I enjoy spending time with other people's pets because I am unable to have one for myself at this time. I am currently retired so I have time to spend with them daily. I can take them to parks, beach, lakes, etc. Depends on breed and how active they are. I have aquariums, reptiles and my extended family has dogs that I am frequently around. I have had exotic, elderly, injured and sick pets in my care. I foster for the Humane Society periodically and adjust my home according to the pets needs.

Throughout my life, I have cherished the belief that dogs are incomparable companions who shower us with unwavering love. Understanding the utmost importance of finding a caregiver who provides genuine affection and attentive care, I have agreed to be the perfect babysitter for all my guests. We make them feel like they are on vacation. During the day we enjoyed the outdoors, games, and the pool. And at night to relax them more We offer massages that we combine, aromatherapy. As soft melodies fill the air with relaxing music, your furry friend will experience a state of wonderful tranquility.

About: I was given the opportunity to work for a major pet store after moving to Austin, TX which is where I realized how beautiful it is to have a family member with a snout, funny ears, and a wagging tail! Helping others find what they want to spoil their furry companion with was always a joy. Rover was then introduced to me and I have been hooked ever since! Being a pup’s pal has allowed me to learn to socialize and get out into the world outside of retail work environments. Of course, socializing your pup is the goal at the end of the day too, that way we can all better understand the world we live in, but I do believe every heart and soul should get the attention they deserve. I strive to create a small bond with your pet so they know they have a friend and a home away from home. In my lifetime I have had the opportunity to work with a Beagle named Bagel, a precious Chihuahua-Terrier named Nala (R.I.P), and then a wild child, mixed lab-pit, named Chakra. I currently own Journey and Luna who are both incredible terriers not terrors at all lol. A bit about me: Daily exercise and nutrition are very important to me, therefore, I spend most of my free time cooking, cleaning, and exercising. I love the outdoors so you can frequently find me riding my bike on or jogging. Naturally, you and your dog(s) are welcome to join in! While your pup is under my care, we will work towards having the time of our lives (within the allotted time lol). The first thing after waking up would start with the quick backyard potty break, followed by breakfast, and then playtime. Some of my favorite parks in the area are Harry Griffin or Mast Park in Santee. The big, almost theme park for dogs would be Fiesta Island or a nice, clean dog beach. Then of course I would have to bathe your pet because nobody likes a stinky, muddy, or sandy pup! Your dog would also NOT be left alone for more than up to five hours with water, treats, and chew toy! After that, they would get some extra attention and likely play outdoors along with a shower of kindness, smiles, handshakes, and, of course, belly rubs and treats. If misbehavior from your pet should occur, no inhumane discipline will take place. They will simply be startled by a loud sound to alert the pup to stop. Worst case scenario: if they bite or ruin any furniture, you may be held responsible for any damages, but you need not worry! Thanks for reading and also for any positivity sent my way. It helps me continue taking care of your pets, fur babies, best friends, and most loyal companions. I truly enjoy and appreciate the time taken to meet and to work with you and your pet(s). I am fully available to your companion. Be it for one hour or one day or even a week! The only obligations I have are, like most, family. I am also in the Army National Guard, which makes me unavailable at unexpected times on rare and seldom occasions. I have a tall, fenced-in yard with edible pet grass designed explicitly for your dog(s) to potty-train. On the extra hot days, a comfy off-ground cot with a cooling mat and shaded canopy is available, along with a small pool of water for your dog to enjoy while they are here with me. No burned paws or dehydrated pets allowed :-P I also have plenty of chew toys and energy to entertain your dog with fetch, tug a war, and lots of outdoor running. Lastly, I offer a bed in a comfortable kennel for dogs with no severe behavior issues such as yelping, whining, and barking, mostly puppy's still learning the basics such as potty training. Dogs will be separated and placed in a kennel during short, unsupervised moments, such as quick runs to the store or during feeding time.
“We love Bobbie! She walks our dog Coco twice a week. She is lovely, reliable and proactive. On a few occasions when the weather forecast has been for rain she checks in ahead of time to confirm if Coco will still want a walk. Coco gets so excited when she sees her and has lots of fun with Bobbie. Could not recommend more highly!”
“Alanis is so wonderful. She walks our energetic golden retriever on occasions and our pup cannot wait to see her! She is very communicative and details our pup’s behavior and any concerns, etc. she may have. We feel so comfortable knowing we have her coming over to help out. She provides sweet love and care to our girl and we will continue to request Alanis’s help as often as we are able to!”
“Kairi is absolutely in love with Martha and she's been a dream to work with. Attentive and available, she checks in and is great at staying on time or asking questions when needed. Martha takes directions really well and communicates effectively. Plus my 2-year-old Siberian Husky Kairi is always thrilled to see Martha and go for a walk. We are absolutely regulars now!”
“Justine is great 👍. Hoppy doesn't always like to walk when it's warm outside so she will play with her in the house. She's very attentive to Hoppy's needs. We are sad that she moved out of Long Beach, she will be missed.”

About: Hi! My name is Isabelle. I’ve been dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for at least 10 years! I miss having dogs around so I will love yours like my own. I work from home full time and can easily take lots of breaks to let your dog out! I also take 1-2 long walks a day. Feel free to bring their bed and any toys your dog may want to have with them. I don’t have a yard but plenty of space to walk them around.
About: Hi, my name is Bree! Currently, my only pet is a cat, but I grew up with chihuahuas, a bird, and have pet sat for many friends and family members. After moving away from my hometown, I missed hanging out with all type of animals, so I decided to start pet sitting again. I love all animals, but I feel most comfortable and confident with cats and smaller or lower energy dogs. I am also happy to care for other animals, like birds, fish, and reptiles. I have experience administering oral and topical medications. I’m an excellent communicator and will tailor my care to your pets’ needs. I have a strong attention to detail and will love and care for your fur babies like they are my own. I am self-employed and work primarily from home, so my schedule is very flexible on both weekdays and weekends. On days when I work outside the home, I can drop in before and/or after my other responsibilities. I treat all homes with respect and cleanliness, and will follow your instructions for care. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and loved in your absence.
About: I’m a full-time teacher, and I do dog sitting as a second job (during breaks) because I truly enjoy it.I’m attentive, reliable, and very comfortable following routines and instructions. I love spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m especially good at reading behavior, providing structure when needed, and giving plenty of attention and affection. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule, administering basic care, or just keeping your dog happy and relaxed, I treat every pet like my own. Pet care fits easily into my routine. I’m a teacher, so I have a consistent schedule and plenty of availability before and after school, in the evenings, holiday breaks and on weekends. I enjoy spending my free time caring for pets and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. I care for pets by following their usual routines and any instructions provided by the owner. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention, and feel safe and comfortable in their space. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I keep things clean, calm, and consistent.
“CJ is reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. I always feel at ease knowing Remy is in such good hands. Remy comes back happy, exercised, and well cared for every time. I highly recommend CJ to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker.”
“Monique is such an amazing pet guardian. She works well to accommodate and flexes with my schedule, is communicative and has such a calmness about her that my dog and cats all like and trust her. I’m at ease when I know my pets are under her care whenever I’m away.”
About: I have 10 years experience with dogs and 3 with cats, I’m passionate about exercise and extend this to pets! I’m able to do home visits or take care of them at my apartment. I’m a UW grad student. I’m available Thursday-Sunday for pet care. I enjoy working with small to medium sized dogs and can take cats that aren’t afraid to meet new people (me) or that can warm up to me. I have a private 1 bedroom apartment for myself. My living room features a cat tree and many cat toys for needed stimulation. For dogs, I have toys and fidgets as well and enjoy taking them on walks or runs for me to achieve my daily move goals as well.
About: I have 2 years of dog sitting experience, including caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience house sitting and serving with high school students at my church, which has strengthened my patience, communication, and responsibility—qualities I bring to every pet care job. Whether your pet needs playtime, a calm presence, or just someone to stick to their routine, I’m here to help! I’m currently committed to flight school. My schedule is different everyday. Sometimes I’m flying, sometimes my event gets canceled. My schedule for the next day comes out 3pm the day before, so planning other activities is pretty spontaneous. But I want something I can do on the side that’s flexible and financially rewarding so that I can save money to pay off my student loans, invest, and take my girlfriend on some dates! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I keep the environment clean, calm, and secure—always double-checking doors, gates, and food instructions. During walks, I stay alert and prioritize the dog’s safety, using secure leashes and avoiding risky situations.
“Kyra is excellent! A great communicator and ensures that issues are quickly addressed. She really took care of my girls and I can't recommend her enough. I will be using her again.”

“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“We're happy we chose Madison and Moses to watch Jerry. We got lots of pictures and it looked like he had a great time. They are great with communication and everything went smoothly.”
“Erica was so accommodating and helpful to me and treated my pup so well. I was able to take a small trip without worrying about Junie and her care. Erica sent me photos and updates of Junie's day while I was away. I plan to book with Erica again when the need arises.”
“What a great family. I took Jackson there for the first time, and he was so loved by everyone. I truly appreciate it when a sitter sends videos and updates and this family made sure they did. I will definitely be rebooking with this family time and time again.”
“Kaitlin and Verle did an amazing job of caring for our dog Punky! They were extremely proactive about getting to know Punky and her particular needs (separation anxiety, dog reactivity), and making sure we were comfortable with their apartment--which, by the way, seemed to be an ideal environment safe for a dog with easy access to a fenced patio. After picking up Punky, she has seemed happy and relaxed. Strongly recommended!”
“Highly recommend Trent! He recently took care of my dog, Momo, and did an incredible job. I was so grateful for his communication he constantly kept us updated and sent plenty of photos, so we knew Momo was in great hands and having a good time. Trent is reliable, caring, and professional. We will absolutely be booking with him again! When we are back in San Diego!”
About: I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for dogs! I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.
“Autumn was absolutely outstanding with my Pups! One of them was rescued off the street 4 months ago and is very fearful around new people and places, but he had such an amazing time and didn't want to leave by the time we had to pick them up. They loved her so much that I honestly felt a little sad about taking them away from her. I feel like that just highlights how phenomenal she was. 10/5 stars!! Hope to be back next time!”
“Terri is a true animal lover. She cared for my dog Lucy over the weekend. She took Lucy for plenty of walks and even took her to the lake a couple times. Baked her some dog treats and even sent her home with a batch. Plenty of pictures. We are very pleased.”
“We had a fantastic experience from start to finish. From the initial meet and greet, they were warm, professional, and took the time to really understand our dog’s needs, routines, and quirks. Communication was excellent throughout—clear expectations upfront and consistent updates during the overnight stay, which gave us real peace of mind. Their space is clean, safe, and very dog-friendly, with plenty of room for the dogs to relax and play. It was clear they prioritize the well-being of every dog in their care, paying close attention to behavior, comfort, and individual needs. We especially appreciated how attentive and patient they were, making sure our dog felt at ease in a new environment. They also went above and beyond with thoughtful touches like photos and updates, and were very responsive to any questions we had. You can tell they genuinely care about animals and treat them like their own. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative sitter.”
“Benny immediately gravitated towards Nick and we knew it was a good match. Nick expressed his love of dogs and it showed with the care he provided Benny. Nick was very attentive and kept us updated with Benny very frequently, providing pictures and videos of Benny enjoying his time with Nick. We also appreciated the feedback that Nick provided at the end of Benny's stay with Nick. Overall we are extremely happy with Nick and look forward to having Benny under his care in the future.”
“Jennifer was fantastic! My first time boarding my dog and she definitely made it as stress-free as possible. She always responded very quickly and gave me updates and pictures throughout the day. She has the perfect setup/yard for this too! And Harper (her dog) was also very playful and entertained my pup all day! Would definitely book again!”
“Chris was great with Bullet. He picked and dropped her off with my friend and my friend said bullet was a happy camper when she got home. Full spirits, which means she had a good time. Thank you Chris and family for taking her on short notice and accommodating and communicating well!”
“Charlie and Shanna are the best. They kept me updated sent plenty of pictures! My flight got delayed and they were very understanding even letting King stay an extra night. I give them a 10 and would leave my furry baby with them any day.”
“My dog seemed to have really enjoyed herself during boarding with Jeffrey. I felt relieved to know he has professional dog handling skills. I’m glad she has a happy place to go to while I’m traveling.”
“I use Mark & Christina frequently for boarding and will continue to use them as they are the best and most affordable sitters on Rover! My girl loves going to their house and I know she is in great hands, treated like one of their own pups and always send lots of pics and updates how she’s doing. Thank you thank you for always loving miss athena!”
“Chico was such a happy boy when we picked him up, and clearly had a great time with Aki and family. Really appreciated the pictures and updates! Will definitely have Aki watch our pup in the future and very grateful for the exceptional care.”
