“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”
“Clara is a kind and accommodating cat sitter. She sent pictures of Kal interacting with her dog that makes Kal peacefully, ,comfortable and happy finding companion with her dog. Kal cried when my son picked him up,.. Kal wants to stay with his new friend dog. Thank you Ms Clara will see you again.”
“We recently decided to try Stacy for an overnight stay after having such a positive experience with her during our dog’s first daycare visit. Stacy was incredibly thoughtful and accommodating, understanding our senior dog’s needs and even providing a special bed for her to rest on. She also let her stay by the door so she could enjoy some people-watching, which our dog loves. Throughout the overnight stay, Stacy kept us updated with photos and messages, which was so reassuring. We’re grateful to have found such a caring sitter and will definitely return to Stacy whenever we need dog-sitting in the future!”
“Desteny took amazing care of King when I had to go out of town. She sent photos of him every day, and he looked calm and happy in every single one. 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!”
“Scout had an awesome experience with Kenia's in-home boarding while I was away. I got daily updates and pics, which really put me at ease, and my dog looked so happy and comfortable the whole time. Came home to a super relaxed pup, couldn’t ask for more! Communication before and during boarding was optimal, highly recommended!”
“She was great with our senior dog. Definitely made this first experience a pleasant one and will use this app again in the future thanks to her great service.”
“Alan is the BEST EVER!! We are repeat customers. Our guy, Tubby, always loves to visit Alan. Alan is very kind, attentive, caring, and friendly. He LOVES animals and his job. Our family always feels at peace when Tubby is being sat by Alan. Alan, gives Tubby plenty of walks and playtime. His home is very spacious, cozy, and clean. Tubby always comes home looking clean, well-kept, and happy :)”
“Thank you Katia for taking care of Macey. I loved the pictures and videos you sent. I high recommend Katia to care for your pet too. I will also take Macey to her when/if she is for my next vacation. 💜”
“Kimberly was amazing with both Speckles and Zoey and accommodated to all of their needs. She sent updates with pictures throughout their time with her. She showed them love and attention and made them feel like they were home for a couple days. I would use her again and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Dominique really saved my week by agreeing to a last minute booking when I unexpectedly had to rearrange my travel plans and find a place to board my dog the same day. She is friendly and great with dogs. I was worried about how my dog would get along with hers, but Dominique is an amazing pack leader and managed everything without incident. I appreciated the daily photos and updates with details of how my dog spent her day, how she was eating, and sleeping. I would definitely recommend Dominique as a dog sitter, and if I ever need a sitter in the future I will definitely reach out to her again! Thank you Dominique!”
“Anyway and her family is a keeper. She really took good care of my babies while I'm gone. Gave me a peace of mind. Toby and Marley find her as their 2nd mom. Its like their having a vacation away from their family. We will definitely bring them to her again. Thank you so much!”

“Shania is amazing! She took care of my puppy Domino while I was out of the country! Her home is nice and clean and has tons of space for the dogs to roam. She sent me videos and picture and updates on her day daily. I felt so safe having her watch Domino I will definitely continue to utilize Shania for any of my future trips!!”

“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!”

“Repeat customer! My cat loves Cynthia. Cynthia is very patient with my cat and spends quality playing time with him. She communicates very well and timely. She is my go-to! Highly recommended.”
“Kim did an excellent job taking care of Stella. She is confident around dogs and bonded quickly with Stella. She sent me pics and also cleaned up after Stella's outings. Will definitely be calling Kim again!”
“Jovi truly went above and beyond for me. She stepped in last minute to take care of my three cats, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Not only did she show up when I really needed help, but she also handled everything with care, responsibility, and genuine kindness. I had recently moved, and despite the extra distance, Jovi didn’t hesitate to drive further to make sure my cats were taken care of. She was incredibly attentive to their needs and made me feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. On top of caring for my cats, she went the extra mile by tidying up and cleaning around the house without being asked. That level of thoughtfulness and initiative truly stands out and made a stressful situation so much easier for me. If you’re looking for someone reliable, compassionate, and willing to go above and beyond, Jovi is amazing. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing pet care.”
“Clara was excellent! She responded to a last minute request of mine and accepted right away. Clara sent updates throughout the day and enjoyed taking care of our 2 cats. Our cats seemed to fit right at home with Clara. We will absolutely book her for future visits and highly recommend her 🙌🏼”

“Elizabeth was the best Rover sitter we’ve ever had! She played with them the whole time, watered my plants and sent the BEST pictures. 5 stars for her amazing “snoot” pictures alone! Haha she is a joy to work with and I could tell my kitties adored her! We’ll be booking her every time, if we can!”
“Love, love, loved her services. She always let me know when she was on the way and always left a detailed card when she stoped in for the visits and she was very patient with my very mischievous cat Beans. Would 10/10 use her again.”

“We recently had our senior dog stay with Stacy for her first daycare stay and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Stacy was so attentive to her needs, making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Meeting Stacy in person on the first day really set our minds at ease and our dog seemed so at ease when we picked her up, clearly a sign she’d been well-loved! I highly recommend Stacy for anyone looking for a compassionate, dependable pet sitter, especially for older dogs.”

About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.
“Priscilla took very good care of Bella. She kept me constantly updated on how she was doing, was very kind to both of us, and Bella looked very happy in the photos and videos she sent me. I would definitely leave Bella in her care again whenever I need to.”
About: I take dogs to the park twice a day so they can get exercise, have fun outside, and socialize with other pups. I specialize in small to medium-sized dogs. I’ll send you regular photo updates so you can see how your pet’s doing. I’m home most of the time, so your dog will have lots of company and won’t be left alone. Pet care is a natural part of my day—I plan my schedule around their needs, making sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love throughout the day. No matter where I’m caring for your pet—my home or yours—I make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I keep things clean, stick to their routine, and give them plenty of love and attention. You’ll also get updates and cute photos so you know they’re doing great!
“I recommend Lori as a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! My dog is strong and energetic, and Lori knew how to manage him, and was very kind and patient. She gave him lots of needed attention and kept me updated. I appreciate Lori so much for making me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands!”
About: I've loved and have taken care of dogs my whole life. I'm naturally curious about them and believe there is no such thing as a bad dog. I am working toward becoming a canine trainer and am currently under apprenticeship. Caring for dogs is very rewarding for me and a true passion of mine. My friends and family have sought me out for advice and to care for their pets and I would love the opportunity to care for yours as well. I have a flexible work schedule and am available for boarding 7 nights per week and for sitting every day. I can also pick up and drop off for an additional fee. I have a large fenced back yard (about 1/8 of an acre), with mixed concrete, dirt with shade. Your pup will be able to play inside and out, and will find it hard not to get along with my 8 year old Labradoodle, Maui.
“Agueda was a wonderful sitter and took great care of my pup! She sent updates and photos during the stay. My dog seemed relaxed and comfortable in her space. I absolutely recommend her and hope to see her again in the future!”
About: I have had pets since I was born. I raised small breed dogs (family dogs) when I was younger and went in to raise 2 large breed dogs at my current age. I have trained my dogs since they were puppies and have often received compliments on their behavior. They enjoy time outside, snuggles on the couch, and homemade treats. All of which I’d offer to any dog in my care. I have a spacious home with plenty of room to run around. I am skilled in giving medication to all sizes and ages. My Aussie is not keen on meds so I’ve had to learn ways to get around that. I love all animals and someday hope to have a farm once my husband retires from the Navy. I do not work. My husband is the worker. I’m the homemaker. So I have plenty of time to do drop ins, check ins, etc and will not leave your dog for long periods of time. I have my own car, so I’m able to make it from point A to B without issue. I also have a routine that my own dogs follow, so I’m up everyday by 8am. I have 2 crates already located in my home. I hsve 2 dogs of my own. A female pitbull (Erza) and a male Aussie (Killua). I have a garage that I allow them to run around in for exercise (I’m working on making it into a doggy play room for my dogs, but it’s large so it’d fit up to 8 dogs). I have have 3 Furbo cameras in my home, so on the off chance I have to not be home I am able to view them on camera. I can also send recordings as needed.
About: Thanks to Rover, I will be hitting my 4 year mark this August 💝 Luckily I can say that I grew up around dogs.. getting to understand their personalities, and their needs. I have always had a soft spot for our furry friends and will do everything in my power to ensure their safe and happy. Please read all info before booking, Thank you. If I have not yet worked with your pet, please request a meet and greet! AROUND MON-SUN 7am-9:30pm! About Me! I have happily been caring for pups full time for 3 & a half years! Before making my hobby a career, I was caring for family friends pups through out high school. It is my favorite thing in the world to create strong bonds with pups as if they are my own. I am all about matching your fur child’s energy. I observe their body language closely to better understand their wants and needs.. if your baby isn’t as affectionate as others, I do not go and invade their space. I wait at a distance until they are ready to start our interaction. Schedule - I book walks & drop ins based around sittings! I sleep in owners homes regularly. I am booked in advance for these services as well. Sitting info! - while you are out of town, your babies are alone while I head out for other walks for no more than 2-4 hours at most. No matter what day of the week it is. All of my time is mainly dedicated to your child(ren) your baby will be walked if you’d like every 3 hours for however long you prefer! I’m happy to take pups to the Coronado Cays for on leash walks (25+ fee) If you go there as well! Additional info about services - I charge a $10 per day fee for overnights over 15 miles out of imperial beach Cancellations - all cancellations must be submitted into Rover I send out dates I am unavailable 3-6 months in advance. I am available to book for weekly re-occurring walks everyday of the week! I am always paying attention to body language, wether they want their space or are ready for playtime, always making sure they are hydrated and happy.

“Kenia was awesome! I needed dog sitting for a few hours while out of town. She communicated quickly, which I appreciate. When we showed up, she greeted my dog so warmly that I knew he would be in good hands. We would definitely go back to her if in the area.”
About: I've been surrounded by animals for 30+ years. My experience runs deep and hands-on. I spent a year working on a farm. Fun fact: I've successfully delivered three litters of puppies — every single one survived and thrived. At home I have two cats and two large senior dogs, all fixed, up to date on their meds, and flea-free. Caring for senior pups every day means I know firsthand how to handle slower walks, medication schedules, achy joints, and the extra patience and gentleness our older companions deserve. What you can count on from me: reliability, genuine love for your animal, and someone who treats your pet like the soul they are. I'll follow your routines to the letter, keep you updated, and make sure your furry family member feels safe and happy while you're away. So whether your pet is a bouncy puppy, a dignified senior, or somewhere in between, I'm calm, confident, and capable in just about any situation. I'd be honored to care for yours. 🐾 Pet care isn't an afterthought for me — it's woven into my daily rhythm. I already care for my own animals every morning and evening, so feeding times, litter scooping, medication schedules, and check-ins are simply part of how my days are built. Adding your pet to that routine feels natural, not like an extra errand. I keep a flexible schedule that lets me be reliably present throughout the day, so I can accommodate everything from quick drop-in visits to longer sessions and consistent walking times. I'm happy to match whatever cadence your pet is used to, whether that's a strict feeding window, mid-day company, or a steady morning-and-evening routine. Most importantly, I show up when I say I will. You'll always know your pet is being cared for on schedule, every time. In my own home, your pet joins a calm, animal-friendly environment with my two cats and two gentle senior dogs — all fixed, vaccinated, on their meds, and flea-free. I keep food, medications, and anything hazardous safely out of reach, maintain clean litter and feeding areas, and can give a nervous or new pet their own quiet space to settle in. If separation is ever needed, I'm comfortable crating or sectioning off rooms so every animal stays safe and stress-free. In your home, I treat your space with the same care I'd want for my own. I follow your instructions exactly — entry, alarm codes, feeding, litter, medication, and lock-up — and I keep doors and gates secured so there's no risk of a pet slipping out. I stay alert to your pet's behavior and comfort, and I'll always reach out right away if anything seems off. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is simple: a safe, clean, loving environment where your pet feels secure and you feel completely at ease. 🐾
“Angela is so wonderful with our dog Daisy and so understanding and flexible with us. She cares about all of the dogs' safety, health and well-being. We really rely on her a lot and appreciate her so much!”

“Elizabeth was great! She was available on short notice to take care of my sweet Boop! He loved walking with her while we were away. I’d definitely book with her again if we’re away.”
“This was my first time to use Rover and from the very beginning I was so happy with Priscilla and Mike. Fiona took to Mike right away and seemed to want to be his bestie! I've now found my dog sitter for any future trips or needs. Both are such nice people and help rescue dogs in need. I wish them success and will definitely use them again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with Matheo. He is reliable, caring, and truly treats kai like his own. I feel at ease knowing my pup is in loving and safe hands. My dog comes back happy, exercised, and well cared for every time. Communication is great, and you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. Highly recommend to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their fur baby!”

About: Welcome to my page! I have taken care of pets belonging to family members and neighbors, and it's always a very pleasant experience to love on the pets and see them excited and relaxed when I'm with them. Besides taking care of their basic needs, I'll make sure they get all the cuddles they deserve! 🐾 I'm currently a SAHM looking to have some income while enjoying loving on pets.

About: I've grown up with both dogs and cats my whole life, so I've always been surrounded by animals and love being around them. I enjoy spending time with pets, whether that means taking them on walks, playing with them, or just giving them company while you're away. I've cared for both medium-sized and small dogs, and I know every pet has their own personality. My goal is always to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for, just like they would at home. I'm currently on summer break, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and plenty of time to walk your dog. I'm happy to work around your pet's usual routine and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I really enjoy being outside and spending time with animals, so dog walking is something I genuinely look forward to. I know every pet has their own routine, so I always make it a priority to follow the owner's instructions and make sure they feel comfortable and well cared for. Whether I'm picking up your dog for a walk or bringing them back, I'll always keep their safety in mind by making sure they're securely leashed and paying attention to the surroundings. I know it's a huge responsibility leaving your dog with another but I'll always treat them with care, respect, and the attention they deserve.

About: Hi! My name is Adriana! I'm a dog person but honestly I'm all about frogs and fishes! Had dogs growing up, and I would love to hang out with yours! I'm currently a college art student and also working for parks and rec so I know most of the local parks and best dogs parks around the city! I will make sure they have fun while staying safe, make sure they get they steps in and of course a treat of their favorite snacks!
About: Hi there! My name is Audrey Wall. I’m excited to use my passion and experience with animals for your pets. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I’ve had the best experience of sitting a variety of dogs back in 2021. I had to pause my sitter duties because of my active duty status, but now that I’m retiring, I’d love the opportunity to watch your pets. While my services are limited to daily walking and drop-in visits, the love and care I’ll provide are limitless! I understand what it can feel like to be worried about your pet being home alone while you’re away, so please allow me to put your mind at ease! My schedule is flexible, so I will always try to move my daily tasks to fit your needs! All I ask is for clear and frequent communication. I live in a single-family residence with a large grass backyard. I have a 90 lb, 8 year old rescue who is not friendly with other animals, so unfortunately, I cannot do in-sitter home boarding.
About: Hello there! I understand you may need someone to look over your fur-baby?! Well, here’s why I’d be a perfect fit! I have been taking care/looking over dogs for 10+ years! I have had two cocker spaniels, a golden retriever/chowchow mix, a cattle dog/Rottweiler mix, as well as a Belgium Malinois. I have also dog-sat for numerous friends and family throughout the years. Anything and everything from letting them go out for a potty break, getting them some grubs, getting some play time, going for a stroll, or simply having human interaction while their favorite human is out. I will always make sure they have the best possible care as if they were my fur-baby. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to send me a message! Hope to meet your pup soon! I am currently working part time but am extremely flexible with my schedule. If things need to be moved around feel free to send me a detailed message. I’m not able to promise that things can always be switched around, but I will try my best to accommodate. I will always make sure your pet is being watched whether inside or out so you can rest assured they will be in the safest hands possible.

“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”
“We recently decided to try Stacy for an overnight stay after having such a positive experience with her during our dog’s first daycare visit. Stacy was incredibly thoughtful and accommodating, understanding our senior dog’s needs and even providing a special bed for her to rest on. She also let her stay by the door so she could enjoy some people-watching, which our dog loves. Throughout the overnight stay, Stacy kept us updated with photos and messages, which was so reassuring. We’re grateful to have found such a caring sitter and will definitely return to Stacy whenever we need dog-sitting in the future!”
“Desteny took amazing care of King when I had to go out of town. She sent photos of him every day, and he looked calm and happy in every single one. 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!”
“Scout had an awesome experience with Kenia's in-home boarding while I was away. I got daily updates and pics, which really put me at ease, and my dog looked so happy and comfortable the whole time. Came home to a super relaxed pup, couldn’t ask for more! Communication before and during boarding was optimal, highly recommended!”
“Kimberly was amazing with both Speckles and Zoey and accommodated to all of their needs. She sent updates with pictures throughout their time with her. She showed them love and attention and made them feel like they were home for a couple days. I would use her again and would highly recommend her for anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Dominique really saved my week by agreeing to a last minute booking when I unexpectedly had to rearrange my travel plans and find a place to board my dog the same day. She is friendly and great with dogs. I was worried about how my dog would get along with hers, but Dominique is an amazing pack leader and managed everything without incident. I appreciated the daily photos and updates with details of how my dog spent her day, how she was eating, and sleeping. I would definitely recommend Dominique as a dog sitter, and if I ever need a sitter in the future I will definitely reach out to her again! Thank you Dominique!”
“John and Francesca were fantastic! Rain had a wonderful time - we received lots of photos of her daily activities, and they took her on frequent nature walks. We’ll definitely book with them 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!”
“It was our first time booking with Monique and I would 100% book again! We left our dog with her for five nights, and he was well taken care of. We got daily updates and pictures, and we love that she has a work-from-home and fenced yard set-up so that he was with people most of the time. Thank you Monique! Sheep seems like he had a great time with you!”
About: Life long dog owner. Over forty years of experience with large active breeds. From rescue to training giving fur babies an active fun day. I currently have three well behaved German Shepherds that go on long daily walks on a leash or running free at dog beaches and hikes out in the open fields in Otay lakes. I have a large kennel and a back yard with plenty of room for a comfortable stay. I’m currently retired and have plenty of time to have fun with my dogs getting in different adventures daily. We enjoy long hikes to lakes or ponds and frequently go swimming at OB dog beach and fiesta island. Now that I’m retired I would like to dedicate myself to dog training. I have a fenced yard half the yard is a kennel but the kennel stays open for full yard to roam. My pups are usually following me around the house all day so I try to keep them active with training and hikes or long walks. For smaller indoor dogs I will provide a comfortable environment indoors with their own separate kennel to sleep in at night making sure they are pampered and spoiled. 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.
“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.

“We had an amazing experience with Priscilla and Pascual! They took excellent care of our dog and kept us updated throughout the entire stay with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind.
