About: Hi, I’m Emily - a life long dog lover who's had pups most of my life, including my sweet Pomeranian who lived to 19 years old. I work from home, so your dog will have constant companionship, lots of love, and plenty of attention throughout the day. We have a fenced yard for safe play and zoomies, and I truly treat every pup like part of the family. From walks to snuggles, I’m here to make your dog’s stay pawsitively great 🐾 I currently work from home so I'm available 24/7 to take care of your sweet pup. Because of my flexible schedule, I can easily adjust to your fur baby's unique needs. I am available Monday - Sundays for boarding at my home in La Mesa, CA.

About: I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I wanted to create a safe place for reactive dogs, little loners, and calm senior doggies who just want a place they can be themselves and have my full attention! I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for them. I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! 🩷 I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. Big dogs will have room to run and fetch. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I allow dogs to be free in the house, they are never crated unless the owner specifically requests it as part of their nightly routine. In that case - I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.
“From the moment I met Alanna and her family I felt immediate comforting and nurturing energy from her and her family. The most recent visit I mentioned to Alanna that midnight and I had a very stressful week and that she needed a lot of love as I had failed her to keep her in a calm environment. The following morning she called me to inform me that she noticed worms in Midnight's stool. I was extremely worried and ashamed about the situation. I truly appreciate her gentle approach to the emergency. It's moments like this that are truly valuable. Thank you Alanna ? I know that Midnight is in outstanding and in the most caring hands with you and your family. ?”

About: Hi, I’m Tami! I have 10+ years of experience caring for pets, which I truly enjoy. I’m dedicated to providing animals with the best care, giving them love, attention, and ensuring they feel comfortable and happy. Joining Rover has been a wonderful opportunity to connect with more furry friends, and I’d love the chance to care for your pet as if they were my own! ❤️ I have a very flexible schedule. I also work with Amazon delivery, so Rover is a lovely job I do as a side. Text me and we arrange the best time and dates for you. At the moment, I don’t care for pets in my own home. However, when staying at someone else’s place, I always ask if there’s anything important I need to know or any special instructions to keep in mind. I make sure to stay within the areas the owner allows and ask where the pet’s food, treats, and supplies are, as well as the feeding schedule. I also bring my own food, depending on how long I’ll be there.
“We had a wonderful experience with Samantha and Leighland walking Arlo, my 1 year old German shepherd, twice a day while I was out of the country for a couple of weeks. This was my first time leaving one of my dogs with someone new so was a little hesitant searching for a new walker so but I’m really glad that I chose them! The updates they sent we’re very comforting and made me feel that my boy was being very well taken care of. I cannot recommend them highly enough! I will definitely be a regular client.”

My goal is to make sure they’re not only cared for, but genuinely happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home full-time with no other job commitments. This allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day In my home, pets enjoy a clean, bug-free space with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I provide fresh water, regular breaks, and lots of attention.
“Very caring and kind sitters, my dog was clearly well taken care of when I picked her up. Sent multiple videos and images daily of my dog, who got along well with both of theirs. Will be going back next time I need a sitter 👍”
“Todd/Bill are the best. Its very obvious why the have such great reviews, Truffles had an awesome time with all the dogs. Bunch of great pictures and videos and updates.”
“Katelyn and Paul took great care of our pup, Calvin. Despite having undergone an unexpected major procedure one week before leaving for our wedding, Katelyn and Paul did not hesitate to take Calvin into their care. He healed up nicely, he got to go on beach adventures, and he absolutely loved playing with their dog Winnie. We look forward to being able to drop Calvin off during our future travels, knowing that he's in good hands!”
“We loved Erika! Our pup enjoyed being so well taken care of, lounging in the sun in her very cute and secure yard, and getting all the snuggles and playtime he wanted. We look forward to booking with her again.”
“Benny immediately gravitated towards Nick and we knew it was a good match. Nick expressed his love of dogs and it showed with the care he provided Benny. Nick was very attentive and kept us updated with Benny very frequently, providing pictures and videos of Benny enjoying his time with Nick. We also appreciated the feedback that Nick provided at the end of Benny's stay with Nick. Overall we are extremely happy with Nick and look forward to having Benny under his care in the future.”
“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!”
“Andrew was awesome. Took great care of Stella for two nights, sent perfect updates and even helped her with some behaviors. She had a great stay with his two beautiful dogs. Highly recommend.”
“Savanah takes great care of Bailey! And she sends daily updates with photos, which keeps me from missing my little guy so much. I know I can trust her completely to take good care of Bailey!”
“Freya was very well taken care of and I was always informed on how she was doing along with cute pictures. I will probably never have to look for another sitter again. Thanks Erica.”
“My dog Mele recently spent 10 days or so with Madison and Moses. They regularly sent me photos of her, sometimes playing with other dogs. She seemed happy and healthy when I picked her up.”
“We’ve now completed two trial daycare days and two trial boarding stays with Mark, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Mello has separation anxiety, so we wanted to make sure she truly felt safe and comfortable before her official boarding. Mark has been incredibly patient, thoughtful, and genuinely caring every step of the way. He really goes above and beyond — he even brings Mello along with him when he’s out running quick errands like picking up pizza or McDonald’s, just so she can feel included and never alone. It’s clear he’s not just watching dogs — he’s trying to be their best friend. The biggest and most wonderful surprise: we had arranged trazodone for Mello to help with her anxiety and sleep, but she’s become so comfortable and happy there that she no longer needs it to rest well at night. That means everything to us. We’re heading into her official boarding stay next, and we feel completely confident she’ll have a great time. Thank you, Mark, for caring for Mello like your own!”
“Aki watched my pup for one week while we were away on vacation. She had so much fun she almost didn't want to come home! I appreciated the daily pictures and daily walks. She even sent home my dog with a little toy and a gift bag. Thank you so much for taking great care of my little Peanut!”
