“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”

About: I’ve grown up around cats my whole life and truly love caring for them. I rescued and rehabilitated a feral kitten who is now my beloved cat, Hazel. I’m very attentive, patient, and caring with cats, and I always try to help stray cats by feeding them and giving them water whenever I can. Cats have always held a special place in my heart, and I treat every cat with kindness, love, and respect.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience fostering dogs and caring for friends’ pets. I genuinely enjoy working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages—whether that’s active play, long walks, or relaxed cuddle time. I have a rescued doodle who I trained to become a certified therapy dog, and we volunteer together at schools. He gets along well with all the dogs that come into our home. I also foster with a senior dog rescue, giving me experience with older dogs who need extra patience and care. We live in a small house with a large, fenced-in yard that dogs absolutely love. I’m attentive, gentle, and experienced in administering medication, and I treat every dog with love to make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, and I make it a priority in my daily life. When I’m not working, I dedicate as much time as possible to caring for and bonding with the pets I sit for. As a teacher, I work most days from 8:30-1:30, but I have plenty of availability on weekends, holidays, and evenings. This allows me to be present, attentive, and consistent—whether your pet needs companionship, playtime, or a calm, comforting presence. I offer a safe, loving, and relaxed environment for pets in my care. I live in a cozy, private home located at the back of a quiet property, complete with a securely fenced-in yard where dogs can safely explore and play. I’m also very active and love taking dogs on walks to a nearby park that has both a large grassy field and a fenced-in dog area for safe off-leash time. My own dog, a gentle and friendly 35-pound doodle, is incredibly calm and welcoming with other dogs. He’s been a wonderful companion while I’ve fostered senior dogs and often sets a great example with his mellow demeanor and friendly energy. I'm also happy to care for pets in your home if that’s what your dog prefers. In most cases, I would bring my doodle along with me, as he’s well-socialized, non-aggressive, and comfortable in new environments. I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, safety, and routine, whether at my home or yours.

“Steph was great taking care of our green cheek conure for two weeks! We felt at ease knowing he was in her care after meeting her for the meet and greet.

So glad we found her on Rover and she will be our first choice for Maui's care in the future!”

My dogs are very gentle and friendly and socialized around different size dogs their whole lives. They also have their own area that they like and stay in that can be secured for added safety.

“Sylvia has been walking our dogs over lunch once a week for the last couple weeks and it's been so great. She gives us updates on how the walks went and pictures.

About: Hello! Just a little about me. I was raised around cats & dogs my whole life. So I am aware of the constant needs that they may require. Whether that be enjoying the weather outside on a walk or a much needed cuddle sesh. I also genuinely love dogs and cats! From high energy dogs that are always on the go and to the mellow cat that just prefers to lounge around on a sun spot. So I'm sure I will love your fur baby during the time that I'll spend with them no matter the circumstance! I am currently working full time as an early childhood educator for the past 9 years, however I do have an open availability for house sitting during the weekends on Friday evening through Sunday evening. I work with children as a Teachers Assistant so “Safety” is my middle name! I am hyper attentive when around animals and will also put their needs first.
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 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.

“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”
“My Penny just finished up her 4th stay with Kenia and Andrew so this review is long overdue. They are amazing. The communication and care is great, plus they treat Penny like a member of the family so I know she’s in great hands when I have to go out of town. Thank you both!”

She was accommodating of his needs, and was willing to give him the same routine and structure that he has at home. I appreciate her willingness to provide boarding for King despite my request being short notice. Will definitely board with her next time!”
“Analisa watched my baby Pebbles this past weekend and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated the whole time with pictures and little check-ins, which honestly made me feel so much more comfortable being away. She was always quick to respond and it was clear Pebbles was being well taken care of and getting lots of attention. I’d definitely trust her to watch Pebbles again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring!”

About: I’ve cared for many pets over the years for family and friends, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very attentive and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I follow routines closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and companionship. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy, clean, and cared for. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, so pet sitting fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to be available most times of the day, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since my schedule isn’t packed, I can focus on making sure each pet is comfortable, safe, and well taken care of while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets at home, I make sure they get plenty of food, fresh water, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I take them on at least two or three walks during the day and make sure they get lots of playtime so they stay active and happy. I also keep their space clean, make sure feeding schedules are followed, and give them plenty of attention so they feel comfortable. At night I make sure they have a safe, comfortable place to sleep and that they’re settled in for the night. In the morning I repeat the routine by checking their food and water, taking them out for a walk, and making sure they start the day happy and well cared for.

“We originally found Daisy on Rover last year, and we couldn’t be more grateful that we did. She watched our Lucy for nearly two weeks while we were on vacation, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish. Daisy kept us updated, treated Lucy like family, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Because of how well everything went, we asked Daisy to watch Lucy again over the recent holiday weekend for a few days — and once again, she exceeded expectations. Lucy absolutely adores Daisy and her family, which says everything. Daisy is reliable, caring, and truly exceptional at what she does. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. My dog, Bearra, a Lab and German Shepherd mix, recently passed away after living an amazing 15.5 years. She was such a huge part of my life and taught me how important patience, love, exercise, and attentive care are for pets at every stage of life. As a teacher on summer break, I’m looking forward to spending more time outside doing something I truly enjoy, caring for and spending time with dogs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, caring, and attentive service for both you and your dog. I am a teacher on summer break, so I currently have a very flexible schedule with my days, evenings, and weekends available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active and outside, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely love. While I do not have a private yard, my complex has safe grassy areas for walks and bathroom breaks, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks around Coronado, Seaport Village, and Miramar Reservoir. I treat pets like family, so they are welcome on the furniture and will receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care while they are with me.
“Chris, Lindsey, their kiddos and dog Birdie welcomed my boy into their home while we were out of town for a few days over Thanksgiving. They took great care of him, and he was clearly comfortable and had a total blast with tons of playtime and fun. They’re such a sweet, positive and energetic family, so glad we found them. Thank you!”
“Took such good care of my pup Kona, provided daily pics/updates and was accommodating on drop off time. They also transported Kona to another dog sitter, as I was out of town for an extended period. Definitely went the extra mile, highly recommend :)”
“Ryan and Dolores were so good with our very old dog. They sent frequent updates, and it was obvious they were treating her like part of the family. They went out of their way to help with a minor medical issue with our dog as well. Thank you so much!”
