“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely the Best Sitter for My Senior Dog I couldn’t have found anyone better to care for my senior dog, Camilo. From the very first moment, she made him feel safe and earned his trust instantly. She went above and beyond my expectations in every possible way, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly kind. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. She kept me updated with messages, photos, and details that gave me complete peace of mind. Most importantly, she really made the effort to make Camilo feel at home, comfortable, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and treats your pet like family, look no further. I’m truly grateful for her care and can’t recommend her enough.”
“Melinda is so kind and welcoming and our dog Doug felt right at home! She is responsive and very knowledgeable with pets. We highly recommend Melinda and will work with her again.”
“She was a great host for our dog! Very communicative, friendly and was always sending daily updates of our dog and the fun they were having. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Pilar is amazing, so sweet and kind! She did a great job with my older girl, Nala. They went on daily walks and she roamed out in the back yard. Pilar is super attentive and just a great person to care for your pup. Don’t hesitate to book, I’m very grateful I didn’t 😊”
“We’ve been frequent flyers with Todd and Bill now for over a year. They have always been so welcoming of our little puppers and so loving with them. It’s scary leaving a furry friend behind so finding the right person to care for them like you would yourself is important. I love how happy my pups are when they come back from a pawcation😄they are so happy Zane tired. A tired dog.. is a happy dog.. very glad I found them!”
“Amanda took such great care of my dog for me and he certainly isn’t an easy one as he has his little quirks that people have to be aware of. All of these updates and photos she sent me really made me feel like roo was apart of their family while I was away. Highly recommend!”
“Kenia and Andrew are amazing fur babysitters! We dropped Waffles off for a 2-night overnight stay at their home and he did so well at their house. We started off with a meet & greet the weekend prior to be sure it'd be a good fit for both them and Waffles and the moment he met Andrew and Kenia, he was already super comfortable being around them - put it this way, Waffles still barks at my own brother whenever he sees him, lol! They were so attentive with him and put our minds at ease knowing he was in good hands. We'd recommend Kenia and Andrew to anyone looking at booking an overnight at their home. We look forward to scheduling him to hang out with them the next time we have something planned that will take us out of town. Thank you!”
“Stacy is amazing. She took such good care of Migo and treated him as if he were her own while I was away. She is kind, professional, and a great communicator. I will definitely be using her in the future!”
“Janet was amazing and an absolute godsend. I came to San Diego on a trip and my plans changed at least 3-4x. Through it all, Janet was super communicative and accommodating and constantly worked around my scheduling changes. She frequently sent updates and pictures. My pup Mishka was in great hands and had a ton of playtime everyday and had the best time staying with Janet! Mishka was clearly very happy and well looked after the whole time at her house. I would come back to Janet again and again for any dog sitting or boarding!”
“Jennifer was so great. We had our wedding that weekend and some plans for my dog ended up changing and we needed Jennifer an extra day. She was flexible. She took such great care of my Navi and sent daily pics. She was communicative and very kind. We really appreciated her.”
“I will definitely be returning when onderful, caring and understanding. Josh was very welcoming of P-Nut and I. Josh helped me with P-Nut's bag and crate - and also allowed me to come by earlier, at 4 am in the morning! Josh showed P-Nut immense compassion and love.”
“Madison took the most wonderful care of our girls during the busy holiday season while we were traveling internationally to visit grandparents! She sent us updates and pictures and even sent a sweet NYE picture of them to me. My anxious girls were able to play and feel right at home, and I’m so thankful they were in loving hands. G & Stormy will choose Madison’s every time 💜”
“Anar took wonderful care of our dog Ace for a full 8 days during Christmas and the new year. She kept us updated daily with pictures and how he was doing. We couldn’t recommend her more!”
“She was so sweet with my shy pup. And always sent cute little updates. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable which I definitely appreciated. Will be going back for sure!”

“Highly recommend Rose for her pet sitting services. Not only was my cat noticeably happy and calm when we arrived home but our house was very clean (no litter, cat hair, etc). She provided thorough updates and photos every day, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation. Thank you, Rose!”
“Cynthia was amazing with our babies as usual! She went above and beyond to take care of them while we were on vacation, and I truly appreciate it so much. Thank you so much, Cynthia!”
“Marielle was amazing and I cannot recommend her enough. It was my first using a sitter & leaving my kitten since I got him, but Marielle made me feel completely at ease. She paid attention details & kept me updated while on my trip. Your pet will be well cared for in Marielle’s hands.”
“We are so sad this will be our last booking due to moving out of the area, Nathaniel is truly the best. He takes extra care of our cats by looking around the house for their favorite toys and making them special pillow forts to zoom around. The cats will miss you!”
“My first time hiring a rover for my kitty and Elizabeth went above and beyond to make sure my cat Dixie was comfortable and safe. Dixie had an upset stomach over the weekend and Elizabeth even stayed extra time to make sure everything was okay when she threw up. Will definitely be booking with Elizabeth again! :)”
“She’s absolutely incredible! We have used her several times now to watch our cats when we are out of town & they have the best time with her. She always takes the cutest cat photos during her visits & makes sure to leave the house cleaner than how we left it. She goes above & beyond to care for our animals & we will continue to book with her for future vacations.”
“Kimberly was great with our older cat while we were out of town for the week. She was super communicative the whole time and our cat was very well taken care of. I would absolutely recommend to book with her for your pet!”
“Lynne is very reliable and super helpful after seeing how she cared for my two cats! Super grateful to have been able to have her help on such short notice. I highly recommend her services!”
“Carolina was absolutely amazing! This was our first time ever leaving our cat, BMO, and our first time having someone other than us care for her, so we were definitely nervous. Carolina made the entire experience so much easier and more comfortable than we expected. She sent a ton of photos, videos, and updates throughout the weekend, which we absolutely loved. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing how BMO was doing while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish, and she always made us feel like BMO was in great hands. Carolina didn’t just stop by to complete the required visits and leave. She spent time with BMO, played with her, gave her treats, and helped her feel comfortable which is exactly what we were hoping for, she helped socialize her. BMO is very shy around new people, but after the first day she was already coming out of her shell, accepting pets, and engaging in playtime. Carolina followed all of our instructions perfectly and exceeded our expectations in every way. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter.”
“Tijera was excellent. She followed all instructions with no problems. She gave prompt thorough reports with pictures. My cat generally does not like strangers, but she seemed to like Tijera. I would definitely use her again.”
“Kaitlyn - you were awesome with my cat! Great communication. Followed instructions perfectly and my cat loved having her here! Kept my place safe & locked up as she was coming and going. First time using the app & it was so easy. I felt safe leaving my baby in Kaitlyn’s care & I will absolutely rebook her for my next trip!”
“Danielle was the perfect sitter for my boy Max. Sending pictures and updates really had my mind at ease that he was being taken care of and shown plenty of love. Couldn't have had a better experience.”
“Madison was great with all 4 of our cats. She took care of the water, food, and litter while we were away. Even she did more than we asked for like throwing away the litter in the dumpster, cleaning food bowls, etc. Definitely we would trust her with our cats again”
“Karmelita was amazing! Zippo can be kind of skittish with sitters, but had no problem coming out for her. Our cat needs medication regularly twice a day and Karmelita had no problem giving him the medication or with the schedule. And even stayed to play with him for a bit! She was an amazing communicator and took lots of photos. I highly recommend Karmelita and hope she is available next time we need someone to watch our cat!”

About: Hello! I’m a Zoology student working toward becoming a veterinarian and a Military Conservation Agent veteran. I have hands-on experience with a wide range of animals, including emergency care and working alongside veterinarians, and I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. With my background, I can also provide informed medical guidance when needed. I’m especially a great fit if your dog needs extra care—such as medical support or recovery monitoring. I can administer medications, closely track their condition, and offer cross-border vet services to Mexico, either accompanying you or independently taking your dog for care. My goal is to keep your dog safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. As a full-time student, I work around my class schedule and maintain a high level of flexibility. My only fixed commitments are my lab sessions, but outside of those times, I can adjust my availability to fit your needs, including early mornings, evenings, and most daytime hours. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."
“She was so caring and attentive to my dog, and I love how she keeps you updated on everything. She was very accommodating given the fact that I had to drop of my dog really early for work. Would definitely recommend, I know I’ll be going to her for my pup.”
“Absolutely wonderful people and the best communication I’ve had in all my years using Rover! I felt very comfortable leaving my babies with Jermere & Janetta; will definitely be booking again if my girls behaved themselves 😂❤️”

About: Hi all! I’m Nathan, a San Diego native that grew up in an animal-loving household. We have cared for all kinds animals for as long as I can remember, and there hasn’t been a moment in my life where we did not have a furry, scaly or feathery companion in our home. Fast-forward to now: My partner and I live locally in Chula Vista where we care for our 3 amazing cats together (Hammie, Tuna and Anny). In my free time I enjoy listening to live music, running and golfing. As a local runner I know all the amazing trails and safe routes to take your pet on an a journey we will both thoroughly enjoy. I mostly work from home which happily allows me the flexibility to care for your pets when you are unable to. My calendar should be up to date for weekend availability as well I will follow any instructions you leave me and communicate with you every step of the way.

About: I offer reliable, loving dog care with plenty of attention, playtime, and patience. I treat every dog like family and adapt to their energy level, routine, and personality so they feel safe and happy in my care. I carefully follow all owner instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and special care needs. Whether your dog loves active play or just wants companionship and reassurance, I make sure they’re comfortable, well cared for, and given lots of affection while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a flexible schedule while working on building my own entrepreneurial business. That flexibility allows me to dedicate quality time to each pet and adapt to their routines, whether that means visits, walks, feeding, playtime, or simply keeping them company. I’ve been pet sitting for years for family, friends, and acquaintances, and it’s always been one of my favorite side gigs because I genuinely enjoy caring for animals and getting to know their personalities. Since it’s something I’ve done and loved for a long time, I decided to start offering my services to more people in my local community. At this time, I’m only able to offer care in my client’s home, where pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and adapt to their individual needs. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, and routines, and I always make sure fresh water is available. I also provide playtime, affection, and companionship based on what each pet is comfortable with, whether they want lots of cuddles or a little extra personal space. I pay close attention to their behavior and physical condition so I can quickly notice if something seems off, helping ensure they stay safe, healthy, and happy while you’re away.
About: I’ve been a dog owner for over 13 years and grew up with dogs my entire life! I’ve taken care over my family members dog when they’re out of town and each dog very different but i’m always able to gain their trust, be one of their companions and build a relationship that evolves into fun play dates and amazing walks to the park or around neighborhood. My dog who is a german shepherd, is now in her elderly stage meaning medication administration, short walks and feeding plays a huge part of her daily life. I have experience with all ages and personalities with pets and always have room to experience and meet all your loving pets! I’m currently transferring to SDSU at the end of August so my availability is limited for now for only pet walks but will change asap. I have a fenced yard with plenty of grass to run, relax and relief themselves with room to stretch their legs and sunbathe. I have a patio out their as well for them to lay on.
“Dominique is professional, patient, friendly, and incredibly good at connecting with my Dogo Argentino, Juni, who is a fierce and strong dog.

I truly appreciate the patience and care Dominique showed toward Juni. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their beloved pet. We are so grateful to have found her!”

I recommend them and will definitely use them again. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you!”
