“Vanessa & and her son took amazing care of Chumpie! He had a great time and misses them already! We will definitely use them again. Thank you Vanessa for treating our special boy like your own. :)”
“This was Willow’s second time staying with Araceli, and when I picked her up, she didn’t want to come home! Araceli is the best, her manner with pups and her joyfulness with being a sitter is what makes me effortlessly comfortable to leave my Willow with her. Willow loves her “Tia” and she’ll be back!”
“Kat and Joe are amazing! At the initial meet and greet they asked lots of questions which made me feel reassured that my dog was in good hands. I really like that they post picture updates and are very active, taking her for walks to the nearby dog park. A friendly couple, easy to work with, and you can tell they really care. Highly recommend! ”
“Robin & Rahn were great! They sent updates with photos and videos during my dog Millie’s stay and it looked like she had the best time! I would definitely recommend them for sitting and will book with them in the future.”
“Anna was amazing watching my dog Willow for the first time. I had a lot of anxiety leaving her after just moving to San Diego, but Anna immediately put me at ease. She was so kind and treated Willow like her own, letting her relax and feel comfortable in her home. She kept me updated and sent great pictures that made me really happy. I truly appreciated her communication and care—would absolutely recommend her! She’s wonderful and you can see how much she loves and cares about dogs! Willow had a great time!”
“Chau was the best. Rocket had such a good stay with her and the other couple dogs that I think he's a little bummed to be home. She was incredibly easy to communicate with and sent me happy updates in photos every several hours. Such a great find in a dog care person!”
“Phillip is just the best!! He has taken great care of our senior dog and loved on her as if she was his own dog, we absolutely trust our dog is in good hands with Phillip.”
“Chanel was a great host for my kitties! She was so accommodating when especially when I was having a hard time being away from them. Will be requesting her “sittership” from now on!”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I understand that every furry friend has their own personality, needs, and routines. I provide dependable, loving care so pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away. I work remotely from home everyday and I hardly ever leave my place. I have a very flexible routine and will sure to be available for your pet’s needs My home is very safe, with lots of space. I normally enjoy going on long walks with dogs, but my home has a big outdoor area if preferred to keep your pet, securely, inside
“I was so happy to find Amy available for a quick weekend to San Diego. My Navi is so shy and introverted I wasn’t sure how she would be with another dog in the house, but I think it made her more comfortable. They went on long walks together and Amy sent lots of pictures of her enjoying herself. She even ate which she rarely does on “vacation.” I will definitely use Amy again in the future.”
“Mariana was an outstanding sitter. She was very attentive and communicated great. My pup did not want to leave her side. I would highly recommend booking her for your fur baby.”
“Claudia is amazing! She is very thoughtful, considerate, and detail-oriented when it comes to dog sitting/boarding. My senior pups loved her. Highly recommended!”
About: I have a Mini Australian Shepard of my own who is 3 years old, whom I trained myself. He is very well behaved. Additionally, I’ve been a dog and cat sitter for friends and family over the past 5 years. My service will include lots of walks, love, and play time with your pet. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available all day on weekends and on weekdays after 6 p.m. Although I live in an apartment, I do have access to 2 fenced dog parks across the street and I live close to Balboa park which makes for great walks!
“Madelyn was fantastic. We needed a pet sitter on very short notice and she jumped right in, was kind, conscientious, and sent us pictures and videos throughout our cat's stay. Highly recommend!”
“Zannah & Doug are amazing host. They made our coco feel right at home from the beginning. You could tell they truly love dogs and want nothing but the best for our pup. Zannah was sending pictures and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Especially after having to chase other boarders for picture and updates, I didn't even have to ask. We will definitely be booking them again, which we already have!”

About: I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and detail oriented, and I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs extra care, I adapt to their individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work mornings from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, which allows me to offer early morning walks and visits before work, as well as afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I enjoy staying active, so spending time outdoors with dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m committed to providing reliable, consistent care and making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow their routine, provide plenty of exercise, playtime, love, and ensure they always have fresh water and a safe environment. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they can enjoy complete peace of mind.
“Jessica was a great sitter! Always sending pictures and updates when she stopped by and was very flexible with the key drop off. Pickles actually came out to hang with her when she stopped by, which is huge, so I know she was very loving with her. Would absolutely book Jessica again and recommend her for any cat sitting!”
“Teresa was amazing with my cat. I can tell my cat was very comfortable around her and she was very considerate with everything. Things were left tidy and neat and my cat happy. Just wonderful!”
“Barb did a wonderful job looking after my cat Stella! She sent so many cute pictures and provided a detailed recap for each visit, which made me feel at ease while traveling.”
“She is the best rover we’ve ever had. Extremely communicative, can problem solve, and genuinely seems to enjoy spending time with the animals. Highly recommend!!”
“Kalista was wonderful! I was so nervous leaving my cats and using Rover for the first time, but Kalista was so great and I was able to focus on my work trip and not worry.”
“Ashley is a great cat sitter. She completes all tasks around our house effectively and per our directions. We have a special snowflake kitty who takes a lot of medications and Ashley has no problem administering pills and liquid medications. She is our go-to sitter and we would recommend her to everyone!”
“Amazing sitter! Very communicative and follows instruction very well. She spent a little extra time with our kitties because of all the medications one of them has. We are very appreciative!”
“Armando is awesome! From the time we made contact, communication was great. My cat, Buddy, really enjoyed his time, and we are very grateful for Armando's commitment to Buddy's health and to the safety of our home. The first couple of days Buddy wasn't feeling well -- Armando and I reviewed the symptoms, made adjustments to food and medication, and within 24 hours we had turned a good corner! I got photos, activity reports, and we had a few phone calls at my request to make sure Armando had what he needed to keep my spoiled kitty happy :-). Thank You Armando!”
“Kaitlyn was extremely communicative, punctual, kind, good-humored, and got along very well with my cat. My cat seemed well cared for when I got back from my two week trip and everything was tidy and in its place. I would definitely hire her again and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Kaitlyn!”
About: I grew up with animals since I was a child. Now I'm in the military and looking to take care of some as a side gig. I grew up with two big dogs, I took care of family and friends pets, lizards, cats and birds. I walked, fed, bathed and had fun with all animals that were under my supervision. I work throughout the week but can still come home to do potty breaks and play. I have a medium size fenced in back yard that will be great for any animal to enjoy. I offer in my home and at the client's home services. I have 1 yr old boy that loves animals and my wife also helps me when we have pet guests. I can go to client's homes if preferred and spend as much time as needed to make sure the oet is cared for.
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I understand that every furry friend has their own personality, needs, and routines. I provide dependable, loving care so pets feel comfortable, safe, and happy while their owners are away.
About: I have had cats my whole life and love to care for kitties! The wonderful thing about cats is they all have their own personalities. I will take care of your cat like my own family and respect each personality! I am dependable and caring!
“Nicholas once again went above and beyond for our cat Pete!!! He gave us very detailed daily updates with lots of photos, which we appreciated since he watched our cat for such a long time! Pete was always so happy to see him, and I really appreciated how Nicholas took the time to play with him. He has watched Pete on two separate occasions, one of the occasions lasting almost two weeks, and we would highly recommend him!”
About: I have had all different breeds of dogs throughout my life. My parents bred French Bulldogs. I currently have a friendly 9 year old Golden Retriever that gets along well with other dogs. I work from home most days so I would love the opportunity to watch your fur baby while you are away. I have a house with a fenced backyard and cameras where the dogs can freely roam inside and outside during the day. My dog Bjorn likes to sunbath on the back deck. I would take great care of your dog for the day or overnight. I would feed them as instructed and ensure that there is always plenty of fresh water available. And give them treats when allowed unless there are dietary restrictions.

“Great safe place to leave my doxies for a day while I worked, they were taken out and treated like celebrities. Didn’t worry about them once and got lots of photos and updates, and brought them home tired and happy at the end of the day, will leave them there again!”
About: I used to have a cat and a hamster and currently own a dog (does not live with me). I have personally trained him and he is now living with my family! I currently go to college in the morning so my availability will be the afternoons along with the weekends in the afternoon and night! I can do boarding on the weekends while caring during the afternoon on the week days! I enjoy playing or relaxing with your animal depending on what they like to do! For dogs, there is a pet relief area in my apartment building however if they are not comfortable with that and/or you have a senior dog, i do have fake grass on my patio right outside of my apartment!
“Lara was great! She introduced chewy to so many dogs on their walk, and she said he did great. I’m so happy to hear her calm energy probably helped to socialize my pup. I will definitely call on Lara again in the future if I need dog sitting.”
“Chau is wonderful. My dog absolutely adored her and her two sweet pups—she warmed up to them right away and clearly felt at ease. She came home relaxed, happy, and well cared for. Chau sent plenty of thoughtful updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. I will happily book with her again!”
“Hernan was the best! He was able to take my dogs within an hour of booking with him! He took such good care of them, they even got bandanas from a dog event he took them to! He was so kind and seems like he has a great setup for them in his apartment with a great patio!!! Will definitely be using him again! Thank you!”
About: Experienced dog sitter who is fun and loving to pups of all sizes. I am active and very attentive to your loved one throughout the day. Expect to receive pictures on the daily (if prefer) to see how they are doing! I have full availability at home to tend to your pup! All attention will be focused on them to have a great time throughout the day and nights. I have a very secure apartment located on the fourth floor with minimum neighbors.

About: as a downtown dog sitter, I offer a unique environment that's perfect for pups who enjoy getting outside. With a dog park conveniently located right downstairs, your dog can enjoy frequent potty breaks, exercise, and supervised/on leash supervision. I provide personalized, one-on-one care in a comfortable home setting, so your dog receives plenty of attention, affection, and companionship throughout their stay. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. Whether your pup loves to play, explore, or simply relax, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you're away! Your dog's day will be structured around plenty of exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and relaxation. Mornings start with a potty break and walk, followed by breakfast (according to your dog's normal feeding schedule). Throughout the day, dogs have regular opportunities to go outside, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised play. With a dog park conveniently located downstairs, active dogs can enjoy extra exercise and socialization when appropriate. I provide full time care and work from home remote, which means your dog benefits from extra attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I am available 24/7 to ensure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of the family and strive to create a loving, stress-free environment where they can feel at home. I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. Our home is a great place for dogs to receive positive socialization. Depending on your dog's personality and comfort level, they may enjoy supervised interactions with other client dogs or with our friendly Chihuahua, Whinnie. Whinnie is generally independent and relaxed but enjoys playing with other dogs when they're interested, making her a wonderful companion for many guests.
About: 👋 Hi, we’re Brian and Bea! We’ve had dogs all our lives and have been primary doggie caretakers since we were kids. We both work from home, so your dog gets company, potty breaks, praises and attention all day! 🐕 We live with Amaru, our AKC Canine Good Citizen-certified Shiba Inu. If you know Shibas, you know they're independent, picky about food, and selectively deaf when it suits them. Living with one has made us patient with dogs who are slow to warm up or particular about their routine. Amaru is also very social, so your pups get a playmate and nap buddy as well! ❤️ We believe the bond between people and dogs is one of the sweetest things in life. Their time with us is never long enough, so we want to help them enjoy every bit of it and give them the same unconditional love they give us. ✍️ We'll follow your feeding, medication, and walk schedule exactly as written, keep your house rules, and send photo updates. We treat every dog here the way we treat ours: like our baby ♥️🫶 👫 We’re a work-from-home couple with a social Shiba, so pet care naturally fits into our daily routine. We’re available for doggy daycare visits on weekdays and Saturdays after 9am. Our workday breaks already revolve around Amaru (a quick walk, a game of fetch, or a few minutes of trick practice) and your dog would easily fit into that same rhythm. Evenings are dedicated to dog time, with plenty of walks, play, training, and couch cuddles. We’re also happy to follow your dog’s usual schedule for meals, walks, medications, and bedtime whenever possible. Our goal is to keep their routine familiar and comfortable, so they feel right at home while they’re with us. 🏡 We live in a spacious apartment with a big private rooftop deck, and Petco Park is just about a block away for walks. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and in every room of our home, so they can settle in wherever they’re most comfortable. 🐶 We like to start with a meet-and-greet so both you and your dog can feel comfortable before the stay begins. Amaru is very social and has never shown aggression toward a dog or person. He’s also famously picky about food (😩) so visiting dogs don’t have to worry about him being possessive over food. That said, we still feed dogs separately as a standard precaution and never leave visiting dogs unsupervised together. 📸 Our camera roll is already full of Amaru photos, so sending you regular pictures and updates of your dog throughout the day comes naturally. 🚨We’ll also collect your vet’s information and an emergency contact before the stay, and we’ll reach out right away if we notice anything unusual. Your dog’s safety and comfort always come first☝🏻!
“Ashley was a lifesaver for our last-minute daycare needs. She kindly accepted on short notice, and when we picked Teddy up, he seemed as comfortable as if he’d been with family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Definitely a 5-star sitter!”
“Zannah was a kind and loving dog sitter for Tula! We were in town for a conference and needed help for a couple of hours during the weekend. Our 1-year old puppy ended up having a last minute, adolescent doggie event - and Zannah rolled with it in a patient and caring manner. She is very in-tune with dogs and respects them! Also - if you are staying downtown, she is in a very convenient location. I highly recommend her for your furry friends!”
“Beau had an amazing time with Grant. Grant is very responsive and shared photos of Beau throughout his time at daycare. I definitely recommend Grant to all pet owners!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, and understand that every dog has their own routine, personality, and needs. My wife and I currently share our home with Callie, our friendly 8-year-old terrier mix who loves meeting and playing with other pups. We also cared for our beloved Daisy for 17 wonderful years. We treat every dog like family—with patience, affection, attention, and plenty of fun. I work from home, so your dog will have company and supervision for most of the day. I typically take dogs for a daily lunchtime walk and can provide frequent backyard play and potty breaks. A few times each week, we visit local dog parks or dog-friendly beaches for dogs who enjoy those outings. If your dog prefers quieter activities, we’re equally happy taking an extra walk or enjoying relaxed playtime at home. Our one-story home has a large, securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and enjoy fresh air. We have plenty of cozy dog beds and create a comfortable, supervised environment indoors and out. There is one flight of stairs at the entrance, but everything inside is on one level. We take time to follow each dog’s feeding, medication, exercise, and comfort routines closely. For everyone’s safety, we can only care for dogs who are not aggressive.
“Thank you, Leah, for giving Bodhi the space & time he needs in order to properly warm up to new humans and dogs. He’s had a rough life until now, but w/your help, he’s starting to be more trusting and willing to leave me. Thank you again!”
“Zaira was amazing with our dog during the three days we needed daytime care while we were out. She was excellent with communication from the very beginning and very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated. We did a brief meet-and-greet session first, and after that Zaira took our Labrador in without any issues. She also has her own dog, Malik (she’s a sweetheart!), and they got along really well, so we had no worries at all. Over the three days, Zaira took great care of our dog, shared pictures regularly, and kept us posted, which gave us complete peace of mind. If you’re visiting San Diego and need a reliable and caring place to leave your pup, Zaira is someone you can trust without hesitation. Highly recommended!”
“Amazing! Worked with me in a pinch and kept her overnight last minute for me. Sent me updates and pictures of honey. She did well with the other dog she was keeping too. Will definitely be booking again!”
“Alexandra was fantastic!! Great care taker, super responsive, very flexible on time (she accepted the job even tho i gave zero advance notice!). Plus she sent us pics of our dog proactively. Thanks Alexandra!!”

I know how much our dogs mean to us, so I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, care, and love I give my own. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member ☺️🐾🤍 I work part time as a SLPA at Rady Children’s Hospital while attending grad school, which gives me flexibility to spend time with your pups on Tuesday afternoons, Wednesdays and Fridays. Your pets safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family.

“We are so incredibly grateful to Katelyn for going above and beyond to help us while we were away for work. She took such wonderful care of our dog, Snow, and made sure all of his needs were taken care of. It meant so much to us that she took the time to send us pictures and updates, especially since being away from home makes us worry about him. She made sure he had plenty of food and water, and she even took the extra time to clean up the mess he had made. Her thoughtfulness, care, and willingness to go the extra mile truly gave us peace of mind while we were away. We are so thankful for everything she did for Snow and for us. We couldn’t have asked for someone more caring and dependable! ❤️”
“Anita was wonderful with our golden retriever Cali. She took her for a walk every afternoon for a week. My husband and I were unable to walk her and she needed to get some energy out. Anita took her on some unusual pathways and long walks that Cali loved. She even brought her own golden to walk with Cali. Highly recommend!”

About: Let me tell you about my girl, what she meant to me, and how I will treat your companions because they deserve the same. I adopted my rescue dog years ago, and she became my best friend, companion, protector, and family. We shared life together. She taught me that trust comes first, that every one is different, and that patience, consistency, attention, and presence matter. When I first adopted her, I was told she didn't like affection or being held. What I learned was that she simply needed trust. Once she felt safe, she showed me who she really was. That experience taught me to pay attention, be patient, and let each one get comfortable in their own time. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, play, companionship, quiet time, and consistency. I pay attention to personality, preferences, comfort level, and the small details that help someone feel secure while their family is away. My girl recently passed away. I will not be replacing her. Instead, I decided to come here and help care for your boy or girl because they deserve the same attention, patience, respect, and care that she received throughout her life. I provide dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and routine care. I own and operate my own business and work remotely during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be present throughout the day. I can adjust my work around the needs of those in my care. I also drive part-time on some weekend evenings and can adjust my schedule as needed. For house sitting, I typically spend 2–4 hours of dedicated time each day focused on walks, play, care, companionship, and routine activities, in addition to the time I am present in the home while working remotely. Depending on the arrangement, I may be away for periods during the day, but I remain available for check-ins, walks, feeding, and care. My goal is simple: to provide reliable care, maintain routines, and help your boy or girl feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I own and operate my own business and work remotely during the week, which gives me a flexible schedule throughout the day. I can adjust my work as needed to make sure your companion receives the attention, care, walks, playtime, and companionship they need. I also drive part-time on some weekend evenings and can adjust my availability when caring for your boy or girl. For house sitting, I am generally available for short-term and extended stays ranging from a few days to four weeks. My only regularly scheduled personal commitment is on Tuesdays, though longer stays can be planned around that with advance notice. I care for companions in their own environment where they are most comfortable and familiar. I understand that trust, routine, consistency, and attention are important. I take the time to learn their schedule, habits, personality, comfort level, and any special needs so I can maintain the routines that help them feel secure. I believe trust is earned through patience, respect, and reliable care. Some want attention immediately. Others need time and space first. I pay attention to their behavior and let them get comfortable at their own pace while maintaining their wellbeing and routine.
About: I have had many pets my whole life. I have been a caregiver for Wag for 3 years. I can administer meds, long walks, specialty care for animals. Very caring and loving to all animals. I am retired and only do animal care for extra income and because I have tons of free time and location flexibility. I will give my undivided attention to your pets. I have a nice apartment in downtown San Diego. Plenty of parks nearby and nice walks. Secure and safe building. I am able to take them out often.
About: I have taken care of dogs for many years and I will treat your dog like the family he/she needs why mom/dad is away!! I am caring and will take care of your pup like my own! I have a large yard in a peaceful home and love to care for your dog! I have a lot of flexibility in my job, which is nice because I can be there 100% for you and your pet care needs! I have a fenced yard with shade in Coronado. It is very peaceful and perfect for daily walks! I have a large pet friendly home perfect for the care of your pet!
“Krista was wonderful. A good communicator and easy to work with. She was at ease walking and caring for our Newfypoo, who is 85 lbs, quite strong and can get excited. She was also very flexible and understanding with our crazy schedule since we were visiting the area. I would highly recommend her and will use her again if we return.”
“Armando was a life saver! I needed a last min walk because I got so busy with work and my pup was being a distraction. He was so kind and Presley came back very tired (yay)! I’ll book him again for sure”
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs for most of my life, and caring for them is something I truly love. I’ve also been dog sitting for family, friends, and neighbors here and there over the years, and during Covid, I would watch one of my close neighbor’s dogs for about a year. Now I’m excited to finally turn that passion into my job through Rover. My family has adopted rescue dogs from local shelters since I was 10 years old. Our first dog was Lucy, a sweet Chihuahua mix who completely stole our hearts. A few years later, we welcomed our sweet boy, Axle, into the family. Sadly, we lost both of them last March, but they’ll always have a special place in my heart. Today, I have two adorable little rascals who keep life fun! Fiona is our pit bull mix, and Rocky is our Chihuahua mix. Fiona was one of the most challenging dogs I’ve ever worked with, but with lots of patience, consistency, and love, she has come such a long way. Watching her grow has taught me so much about understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. Every dog deserves kindness, patience, and plenty of love. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I look forward to giving your furry family member the same care, attention, and affection while you’re away. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide loving, dependable care for your pets and extra loving attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring, reliable hands.
“Kalista was so sweet with our pup! She made time to do a meet and greet on short notice and quickly won over Indie. We are so grateful and will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: I am an animal care specialist for the U.S. Army. I have 9 years of veterinary experience. I have worked in veterinary clinics for 7 of my 9 years. I am currently working with marine mammals. I love my job and I love all animals! I have had veterinarians who took interest in animal behavior so I take a special interest in that as well. I don’t just want to care for your pets while you’re gone I want them to have someone they can trust and love. Pet care will fit into my routine as requested by the client. Basic needs being Am and PM potty break, and feeding. I am absolutely able to do walks, medication, or anything else upon request. I will be able to let pets out for bathroom breaks before I go to work and after work. If the pet(s) need to be let out at lunch this can be requested and discussed during booking! I like to have a home meeting before it is time for me to pet sit at your home. This allows me to meet and understand the behaviors of the pet(s) in their natural state, give them an opportunity to get familiar with me and get my bearings of the home. I will respect any of the client wishes for play, walk, sleeping, and feeding. I am able to assist with pets that may have more demanding medical needs or medication schedules.
About: My approach to pet sitting is based upon knowledge, compassion, communication and trust. This sets a peaceful tone for both the pet and their owner. I'm a member of PSI (Pet Sitters International) and have taken many courses including dog body language, pet sitting essentials and pet first aid. I have a Pet CPR Certificate from the American Red Cross as well. I enjoy pet sitting in the clients home where I can create a customized approach to caring for the needs of their pet and their owner. I also excel at dog walking. When walking your dog, I pay close attention to how they're interacting with the environment and always keep their health and safety as a priority. I look forward to working with you and your beloved pet! I am available 7 days a week 7am-8pm with over-nights being an option as well. I'm happy to work with you on finding the right schedule for the both of us. When caring for a pet in the client's home, I first learn the habits of the pet from the owner. This includes: their feeding schedule, medications needed, hiding places, their behavior toward people and other animals, potty habits etc. From there I create an environment of comfort for the pet making sure they are played with, fed, walked and rested. During this time, I stay in contact with the owner and update them with notes and photos of their pet.
“Nicolas is just great w dogs. He has a way with our big Staffy that keeps her in check and she still has a great relaxed walk. If you need an all around good person watching or walking your fur babies, Nicolas is the guy. I’m so lucky our family and our dog has met him.”
About: I have grown up my entire life with dogs. I have experience with taking care of a vast range of dogs from 5 pounds to 100. I believe every animal is special and should be treated as such! I have experienced my own dogs becoming seniors and passing so I empathize with how difficult taking care of them late in their life can be and can need special specific instructions such as administering medication, that I am more than happy to do. I have never owned a cat but a close friend of mine has one who I currently pet sit for. I have watched all types of dog and cat breed from the age of 15 til now. I work remotely and have the flexibility to prioritize your pet’s schedule. I am organized in my planning and will make sure your dog is never left home alone for more than a few hours I live in Coronado and can travel to your home as much as you need for walks/ check ins or happy to stay at your home when pet sitting is needed. I am organized and can follow strict routines or just hang out and play with your dog depending on personalities.
About: I've been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! Now, I'm married, a proud mom to one tiny human, and dog mom to two pups—our home is full of love, laughter, and lots of dog walks. I'm a stay-at-home mom to a 10 month old baby girl who loves daily walks and adventures. Pet walks fit perfectly into our routine and active lifestyle! I care for every pup like my own, following their routine, providing plenty of love, exercise, playtime, and updates so you can feel confident they're happy and safe.
About: I treat every dog as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient, responsible, and detail oriented, and I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, or a senior who needs extra care, I adapt to their individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work mornings from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, which allows me to offer early morning walks and visits before work, as well as afternoon, evening, and weekend care. I enjoy staying active, so spending time outdoors with dogs is something I genuinely look forward to. I’m committed to providing reliable, consistent care and making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow their routine, provide plenty of exercise, playtime, love, and ensure they always have fresh water and a safe environment. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages, so they can enjoy complete peace of mind.

“Vanessa & and her son took amazing care of Chumpie! He had a great time and misses them already! We will definitely use them again. Thank you Vanessa for treating our special boy like your own. :)”
“Kat and Joe are amazing! At the initial meet and greet they asked lots of questions which made me feel reassured that my dog was in good hands. I really like that they post picture updates and are very active, taking her for walks to the nearby dog park. A friendly couple, easy to work with, and you can tell they really care. Highly recommend! ”
“Chau was the best. Rocket had such a good stay with her and the other couple dogs that I think he's a little bummed to be home. She was incredibly easy to communicate with and sent me happy updates in photos every several hours. Such a great find in a dog care person!”

“Claudia is amazing! She is very thoughtful, considerate, and detail-oriented when it comes to dog sitting/boarding. My senior pups loved her. Highly recommended!”
About: I have a Mini Australian Shepard of my own who is 3 years old, whom I trained myself. He is very well behaved. Additionally, I’ve been a dog and cat sitter for friends and family over the past 5 years. My service will include lots of walks, love, and play time with your pet. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available all day on weekends and on weekdays after 6 p.m. Although I live in an apartment, I do have access to 2 fenced dog parks across the street and I live close to Balboa park which makes for great walks!
“Zannah & Doug are amazing host. They made our coco feel right at home from the beginning. You could tell they truly love dogs and want nothing but the best for our pup. Zannah was sending pictures and updates throughout the day, which I really appreciated. Especially after having to chase other boarders for picture and updates, I didn't even have to ask. We will definitely be booking them again, which we already have!”
“highly recommend Zaira for your next trip! She is a very caring dog owner and sent lots of updates while watching Murphy and was very accommodating with pick up and drop off times. Her dog Malik is very sweet!”
“Victoria took great care of Rocky while we were traveling overseas. We got lots of updates and had peace of mind knowing that he was in good hands. Winnie and Leo were great companions and Rocky had fun playing with them.”
“Haley and Logan did a great job taking care of my dog Busaba for a recent weekend trip. It was my first time booking with them and they were very accommodating with the meet and greet and anything else Busaba needed. They sent me pics and updates and were flexible with the drop off and pick up times. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again in the future. Hopefully they are available for the next trip I take since Busaba was happy and comfortable staying with them.”
“Natasha was incredibly attentive to our 8 month old pup and communicated regular updates! I appreciated that she asked how frequently we wanted updates to help set expectations upfront. She made sure our pup was not just well taken care of but engaged and exercised regularly, plus she kept up with training which was a bonus. We even went through travel delays getting home and she was flexible to accommodate the extra time, it was great knowing our dog was taken care of and didn't add to the stress of travel. We would absolutely use Natasha again.”
“Ozzy was taken care of very well and he got along great with the pups in the home. Kaitlin and her partner were very friendly and great at communicating and keeping us updated on our boy. Definitely will book again when needed.”
“They were amazing with Quevo. I was nervous because this was the first time having someone watch my dog but they made the whole process so smooth. You can tell they really love and care for the dogs they watch.”
“Kimberly is a regular in hosting Abbie and I’m almost ashamed at how excited Abbie gets to go for a ‘vacation’ to stay with her when I’m out of the area. She always takes the best care of Abbie and I know she’s in the best hands when she’s with her! On top of that Kimberly is super accommodating and this time around even offered to pick up Abbie from another Rover nearby for me when I had to leave for work a day earlier which she was unavailable for. I couldn’t recommend enough!”
“Michelle provided an amazing stay for our pup while we were out for a week. She was quick to respond, extremely flexible and provided great updates. If you’re looking for a dog sitter I highly recommend using Michelle’s services.”
“I can’t write enough great things about Armando—Armando truly went above and beyond in every possible way. From the very beginning, Armando was incredibly helpful and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Armando even helped me book the correct appointment when I booked the wrong one, which I really appreciated. Armando was punctual, professional, and very communicative throughout the entire experience. Armando kept me updated and sent plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that he genuinely cares about the dogs Armando works with. Most importantly, my dog absolutely loved Armando! You can tell a lot about a person by how animals respond to them, and my dog was happy, comfortable, and excited to be with Armando. That alone communicated how wonderful Armando is. It’s rare to find someone who is not only reliable and responsible but also so kind and attentive. Armando exceeded all expectations, and I would 100% recommend Armando to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with Armando again!”
About: as a downtown dog sitter, I offer a unique environment that's perfect for pups who enjoy getting outside. With a dog park conveniently located right downstairs, your dog can enjoy frequent potty breaks, exercise, and supervised/on leash supervision. I provide personalized, one-on-one care in a comfortable home setting, so your dog receives plenty of attention, affection, and companionship throughout their stay. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine. Whether your pup loves to play, explore, or simply relax, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and at home while you're away! Your dog's day will be structured around plenty of exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and relaxation. Mornings start with a potty break and walk, followed by breakfast (according to your dog's normal feeding schedule). Throughout the day, dogs have regular opportunities to go outside, stretch their legs, and enjoy supervised play. With a dog park conveniently located downstairs, active dogs can enjoy extra exercise and socialization when appropriate. I provide full time care and work from home remote, which means your dog benefits from extra attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. I am available 24/7 to ensure your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I treat every dog like part of the family and strive to create a loving, stress-free environment where they can feel at home. I follow your pet's routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. Our home is a great place for dogs to receive positive socialization. Depending on your dog's personality and comfort level, they may enjoy supervised interactions with other client dogs or with our friendly Chihuahua, Whinnie. Whinnie is generally independent and relaxed but enjoys playing with other dogs when they're interested, making her a wonderful companion for many guests.
