“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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.”

I almost thought I wasn't getting my dog back because he looked so happy lol but I am already planning my next trip simply because of her. Thank you again Raquel.”

She attended percys special request with diapers as well as kept me comforted with pictures throughout the stay, he was walked, attended too and got a long with her Dogs. Anar was great and i will be requesting her again for Percy.”

“Arianna was great! Troy immediately like her and barely said goodbye when we dropped him off. She shared regular updates and took great care of Troy. We would use Arianna again and definitely recommend her.”

“First time boarding my 2-year-old mini golden retriever. It was for 3 days 2 nights. Kirsten was amazing and professional. We met her and her pup before booking—big yard and nice view. I was very pleased with how communicative she was through Messenger. Answered all my questions and concerns I had and how quickly she responded. On the day of our trip, I felt very confident that Max was in good hands. Sending me updates and photos of Max. I never felt pressured to pick him up. On the contrary, she was very flexible with her schedule and mine. It’s never easy to leave your baby (pup) behind with strangers but in this case, Kirsten was outstanding.”

Not only does she take incredible care of them (they absolutely love her) but she also leaves my home spotless, even cleaner than I left it 😭 You can tell she genuinely cares, not just about the pets but about creating a safe environment. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they’re with someone who treats them like her own. At this point, she’s not just a cat sitter she’s part of our family. I couldn’t recommend her more 💖”


“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! :)”

About: In addition to having two senior pets and a cat of my own, I currently work as a veterinary assistant at an emergency animal hospital, where I care for pets in urgent situations and have experience recognizing signs of illness, administering treatments and keeping animals calm and comfortable during stressful times. I also previously worked as a client care representative at an animal specialty hospital, where I developed a strong understanding of pet health, client communication, and the importance of compassionate care. Moreover, I volunteer as a dog walker at the San Diego Humane Society and at a pig sanctuary, which has given me experience working with animals of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy who needs consistency and patience or a senior pet who requires a gentler routine and extra attention, I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their fur baby is in caring, knowledgeable hands. I am in hospital during the late afternoons and evenings from Sunday through Wednesday. This means I'm available for morning and midday visits on those days, as well as more flexible availability Thursday through Saturday. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and communicate clearly about my availability. When I'm caring for your pet, I make sure they receive the attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection they need while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I am willing and receptive to any wishes, rules and specifications when it comes to ensuring the safety and happiness of your fur baby! I encourage communication and would love to share photos and updates of our walks and adventures!

“Karmelita was excellent! She stopped by and met my two girls beforehand, which made hand off easier for both them and me. I got updates on them while I was gone and I felt better knowing they were in good hands. I could tell that my girls were well taken care of when I got home. Thanks so much for your care!”


About: I’ve always loved cats. My first cat at the age of 5 was Albert. I will always cherish the memories playing and cuddling with him. Chelsea my second cat, a fiercely independent one, I always made sure was well-fed and safe.

“Jazmin continues to be the best with my cat, Timo! She’s very communicative and gives all the pertinent information in her report card :) Thank you, Jazmin!”

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. You can trust that I will respect and treat your pet like they are my own every time they are in my care

She was also very flexible and was willing to add last minute additional walks when our plans suddenly changed. Will definitely use her again for future walks!”


“Karilou is probably the best dog walker Gus and I've had. He adores her. One day I stayed home from work and forgot to contact Karilou. Gus knew she was coming before I did. When she arrived a was so glad because I was too sick to walk Gus. I thought he was going to knock her over he was so happy to see her. Thanks Karilou! I know Gus is always happy to spend time with you!”

“So far, I’ve had Alyssa’s walking service for 3 times and I am happy to have found her. With my work schedule change, I am seeking a trusting sitter whom I can turn to to make sure not only my poppers bio needs but also mental needs are met(to know that their walker takes good care of them like I do). She has helped me with additional needs gladly and I am starting to build more confidence with her as we increase the request! Her warm presence was recognized by my poppers (critical!) and this give dog mom a peace of mind. We’ll continue to work together and as she get to know more about mines, we will endeavor to more services!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. When I was active duty I spent a lot of time watching other service members pets. I would help any time they needed! I trained my own dogs and keep their activity levels up! I am doing school online so I have a VERY flexible schedule! I’m also active so I can do lots of walks and potty breaks! Patience it key! I believe all dogs are incredibly smart they just need a second to understand! Food motivation is always a good trick to help get them on the right track!
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.

We had a daily morning photo and text to let us know all was going well. Love that they only sit 1 or 2 dogs at a time so it wasn’t overstimulating for Juna. Juna seemed happy and relaxed and we will use Katelyn and Paul again in the near future. Def recommend! 👍”
