“I liked Margaret’s confidence about having my two little poodles stay with her. Nothing was a problem so I hope she meant that and that I can board with her again!!!”
“Fantastic. May was there at drop off and outside at pickup for a seamless experience. Received several amazing pics of my dog throughout the day as well. Happy to have found a superstar dog sitter!”
“We boarded our dog Mango with Hana and she took very good care of him! He got a lot of exercise- going on walks, hikes, playing with other dogs. Overall he seems to have had a great time there 😊 She also makes sure to send videos and pictures frequently to keep us updated!”
“Thankful for Nina taking care of Daisy during 3 day trip! She took Daisy on long beautiful walks which is Daisy’s favorite on each day of her stay. Nina kindly provided daily updates and photos, keeping us assured of her safety and comfort.”
“Anna took great care of our dog PJ while we were on vacation. She is nice and thorough, and I could tell PJ was in great hands. My anxious dog needed a calm and understanding environment and she was able to provide that. Anna was able to follow the feeding and other instructions easily, and communicated with me daily, providing pictures and videos of PJ while we were away. I think PJ enjoyed his time so much with Anna because he wasn’t really excited to see me back! Thank you Anna for taking in my quirky PJ and providing for his needs while we were on vacation. 😊”
“I would leave 6 stars if I could. Luciane took good care of our puppies, who were clearly very well loved during their stay. Booking was easy, communication was great, and the photos she sent were absolutely heartwarming. She had treats and toys and puzzles for the dogs... I couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you so much!”
“Stacey and Christopher boarded my dog for four nights and took great care of her! I’d never boarded my dog before nor left her for an extended time so needless to say I was a bit anxious! But after the meet and greet I felt at ease knowing she’d be in good care. Christopher immediately began playing with my pup, and Stacey asked really involved, clarifying questions about her care that I knew they were well versed in the dog sitting world. I received photos and updates while away, and they are always prompt with communicate. Would book again!”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
About: My name is Gabi! I’m a dog lover with experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I raised my own from puppyhood and have also fostered/cared for senior dogs, so I have experience caring for dogs at every stage of life. I provide personalized care based on each dog’s routine and personality to help them feel comfortable and at home. Due to allergies, I can only care for hypoallergenic dog breeds. Thanks for understanding! To ensure every dog gets the attention they deserve, I take no more than 2 dogs at a time and will be home full time with your pets during their stay. Your fur babies will receive plenty of care, supervision, and love while they stay with me. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Our home is quiet, clean, and dog-friendly, with no stairs and dog beds in every room, so your pet always has a comfortable place to relax. My own dog is calm and friendly with other dogs and happily welcomes fellow friendly pups. I will provide regular updates with photos and videos while you are away. My goal is to make your dog feel safe and comfortable during their staycation with us.
“I am very pleased with the care that my two dogs received. Griselda stayed in touch with me with updates and photos. She is a very conscientious and caring person, and I will use her in the future.”
“Rachelle was WONDERFUL! She sent so many awesome pictures of Enzo during his stay. He was very well-exercised and came home exhausted! Rachelle was super flexible with pickup/dropoff. I will definitely be returning to Rachelle in the future!”
“Danielle & her family were amazing!!!! Extremely communicative, flexible, and kind when watching my 5-year-old (often anxious) foxhound. She had no issue when my pickup and drop off times kept changing, and even fed her some of their dog’s food (after getting our permission) when she ran out during Clementine’s stay (our fault - we miscounted). Clementine seemed super at ease staying there and we will definitely be using Danielle again in the future :)”
“Janis provided excellent care to my dog and provided many updates (and pictures) while he stayed with her. He required some specific medical care and was providing details on his well being while I was away, so I knew he was in great hands! Will certainly try booking with her again!”
“Pinar was amazing for us, she made sure Neva was comfortable and checked in with us everyday with pictures of Neva as well as if how she’s doing. Neva as well had a great time with Pinars lovely dogs. We would 100% book her again next time we go out of town.”
“Jason is fantastic, we are happy repeat clients! Jason takes wonderful care of the dogs in his care and treats them like members of his family. He is a great communicator and is very accommodating. Our Australian cattle dog can be very nervous, but she feels completely comfortable with Jason, which puts our minds completely at ease. We are so thankful to be able to trust she will be loved and looked after when we travel. I would highly recommend Jason to any pet parent!”

“Kristianna was great with Athena. Athena LOVED her. Kristianna also sent me pictures every day and was really good with communication. Will definitely hire again!”

“Tiffany did an amazing job. She followed instructions carefully, was always on time, and took excellent care of my cat. I highly recommend booking with her!”
About: Several years ago, my sister and even my mom started dog walking and boarding dogs through Rover. As a result, whenever I was home, I would spend time with these dogs, walking them, playing with them, and even cleaning/bathing them when needed. I would love to help you out when you need it, even if it's for a short walk to get your dog some exercise. I currently work full-time Monday through Friday 8:15 to 5:00PM and can provide pet care after work starting at 5:30PM or on Saturdays (usually very busy on Sundays as well)! I will be aware of where your dog's food, water, treats, toys, etc. are to keep them happy and healthy while they are in my care.
“Tiffany was amazing! She was so sweet and thorough. She took the time to have a meet-and-greet with my cat, and was very responsive to messages. She took great care of him and he loved her!”
“Monica was communicative, prompt, and easy to work with. She did drop-in visits for our two cats while we were away traveling for 13 days. Even our more standoffish cat warmed up to her quickly. She messaged us when she had a question or concern, and we knew our cats were in good hands with her.”

They won't want to come home! I work from home, so I am able to care for your pet all day long. I have a flexible schedule because I am self employed. I live on a pond with walking paths all around. Dogs love this! There are several parks close by for an active outing for your pup!

About: Hi! I’m Katie! New to Rover but not new to watching pets for friends and family. I work from home so I have the flexibility to go anywhere to watch your pet while you are enjoying your vacation. Growing up I used have a dog and loved taking her on walks and playing fetch. Over the years, I have taken care of friends and family’s dogs and cats, so I have an understanding the attention to take care of a pet and what is required to make sure they are cared for while you’re away. When you’re away, I’ll make sure to keep you updated, and send a video and a few pictures daily so you can be reassured your pet is healthy and happy. I understand being away from your pet can be hard, but I’m here to help the process go as smooth as possible and reassure your pet is in good hands. I have watched a range of puppies to older dogs, and the occasional cat. I understand each animal is unique and will cater to their specific wants and needs. I work M-F and I leave the office at 2:30pm. If you have a long day, I check in on your pets when I leave the office. I am based in Mira Mesa and work in Kearny Mesa, for reference if you live close to those areas. I make sure each dog and cat know they are safe in their home and work to earn their trust. I will confirm they have everything they need and that their water dish will never go dry. I understand your pet may experience anxiety when you leave, but I’m here to make ensure they know they can trust me and will have a fun time while you are away.
“Rylee was very attentive and loving to our sweet Mollie girl! They instantly bonded with one another and she got Mollie to eat dinner and breakfast while we were away! (Those are major wins hahah)”
About: I have had the privilege of loving my five cats, most starting at the kitten stage. I understand the varying temperaments of cats and how to be calm, patient, and loving with them to help them feel safe.
“So great with my Groot. Even when he got sick she cared so much for him and gave him what he needed. Communication was outstanding. I would love to have her again if I have to travel.”

“Janet was great, she watched my dog and cat for a long weekend. She fed them, walked them, distributed vitamins, and was very responsive and communicative. Everything was in great shape when I returned. Will be hiring again. Thanks Janet!”
About: Hi, I’m Naia! I’m originally from Massachusetts and now live in San Diego. I’ve always had a love for animals and enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’ve cared for dogs and cats for family and friends and have experience with pets with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’ve also had two hamsters of my own, so I’ve always enjoyed caring for animals of all sizes. I also have experience working in a veterinary setting, which gave me the opportunity to be around animals and learn more about caring for them. I’m comfortable following each pet’s individual needs and making sure they receive dependable, attentive care while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care throughout the week. I’m available during the day for drop-in visits, walks, feeding, and playtime, and I’m happy to work around each pet’s usual schedule. I enjoy spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I can be flexible with visit times and give each pet the time and care they need. When caring for a pet in their home, I’ll follow the instructions you provide and keep things as familiar as possible for your pet. I’ll make sure they’re fed, have access to water, get their needed potty breaks and walks, and receive any medications as instructed. I’ll also be respectful of your home and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I understand that every pet and household is different, so I’ll always ask questions beforehand if there’s anything I’m unsure about.
“Karen is super friendly and kind, and did an absolutely amazing job taking care of both my apartment and my two cats! I immediately felt comfortable with her at the meet and greet, she sent so many great photos and updates while I was away, and my place looks just as clean as when I left it! If you’re overwhelmed with choices on here, this is your sign, Karen is the one you should pick!”

“I've been using this sitter for quite some time now. Very reliable and dependable. She's been able to help with short notice sitting and out of state work trips for my crazy work schedule. My pup loves it there and enjoys their entire family. I don't get as many pictures but I get a few and my pup is always a happy camper whenever I pick him up. Would definitely recommend this sitter all anyone in need of pet care.”

We have a very cozy, dog-friendly home with plenty of toys, comfortable dog beds, and lots of space to relax and feel at home. Our goal is to make every dog feel loved, comfortable, and part of the family during their stay.

About: I’ve always believed pets are family, and I care for them with the same attention, patience, and love I give my own. I have hands-on experience with daily routines like feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe, calm, and understood while their humans are away. I’m especially attentive to each pet’s personality. Whether they’re energetic and playful or shy and in need of extra reassurance. I value consistency, clear communication, and keeping pets comfortable in their own environment. You can count on me to follow instructions carefully, send updates, and treat your pet with genuine kindness and respect. My goal is always the same: happy, relaxed pets treated like family and peace of mind for their humans. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so I’m home most of the day and able to give pets plenty of attention and care. I’m typically only out briefly for school drop-off and pick-up, the gym, or quick errands. We live in a one story home with a fully fenced backyard and real grass, great for safe play and outdoor time. I’m married and I have two gentle, dog-loving daughters (ages 7 and 11). Our own beloved pit bull passed at the end of 2025, and welcoming other dogs into our home feels especially meaningful to us. Our only current pet is a friendly conure bird, who is safely housed and will never be left unsupervised around visiting pets.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old. I am experienced feeding dogs, walking dogs, and administering medication as needed. Additionally, I have experience with dogs ranging from puppies to senior dogs. In fact, all of my dogs have been with me since they were puppies. I was so lucky to have my late dog, Lily, was with me from 2 months old until she was just a few months shy of 18 years old. I am most familiar and comfortable with smaller dogs for around the clock care, but I am happy to check in and walk dogs of any size. I work Monday-Fridays on a hybrid schedule. I am remote 3 days a week, 2 days on-site. On days I am not on-site, my availability is flexible and can check-in on dogs 2-3 times during the workday (8AM - 4:30PM) if it's within range. I also don’t work on weekends, so I will be most available then. I will follow any house rules or guidelines left by the clients to ensure their pets and home are well taken care of! I will make sure to accommodate each pet's schedule and attend to what their needs are. Respecting the owner’s & the pet’s routine and space is incredibly important to me.
About: I’ve been volunteering with the Humane Society since 2021, where I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for and working with animals of all different ages, personalities, and needs. I also have a senior dog at home, and previously cared for another senior dog, so I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that older dogs may require. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’ll treat your dog like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m a recent high school graduate and will be starting at UC San Diego in the fall. For the summer, I have full availability and a flexible schedule, so I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-ins, and other pet-care needs throughout the week. Once school starts, my availability will become more limited, but I’ll do my best to maintain a consistent schedule and work around your needs. I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I take the time to learn each animal’s personality, routines, and individual needs, and I always follow their owner’s instructions closely. I’m patient with animals who may be nervous or need extra time to warm up, and I keep a close eye on them during walks and visits. My experience volunteering with the Humane Society has taught me the importance of responsible, attentive animal care, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.
About: I grew up with my grandparents and our family dog, so being around dogs has always felt natural to me. Through years of daily companionship, I became familiar with their routines, body language, energy levels, and individual personalities. Two years ago, I welcomed my cat, Dodo, into my life when he was three months old. I have cared for him through every stage into adulthood, including feeding, grooming, playtime, maintaining his routine, and paying close attention to changes in his behavior and mood. Caring for both dogs and cats has taught me that every pet has different needs and ways of communicating. I will treat your pet with patience, affection, and the same thoughtful attention I give my own. As a complimentary extra, I can also film your pet and edit the footage into a short, lighthearted story on my YouTube channel with 18k+ subscribers. This is completely optional and will only be done with your permission. If you are interested, please mention it in your booking request so we can discuss the details before the service begins. I am currently unemployed, so I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the day on both weekdays and weekends. This gives me plenty of time to provide each pet with unhurried attention, including feeding, walks, litter box care, playtime, companionship, and maintaining their usual routine. I am happy to coordinate visits, drop-ins, or boarding around each owner’s preferred schedule. As a complimentary extra, I can also film your pet and edit the footage into a short, lighthearted story for my YouTube channel with 18K+ followers. This is completely optional and will only be done with your permission. If you are interested, please mention it in your booking request so we can discuss the details before the service begins. My home has a fully fenced yard, a small balcony with carefully controlled access, and three spare rooms. For cat boarding, I can provide a quiet private room and keep visiting cats safely separated from my own cat, Dodo, so they have time and space to feel secure. I carefully follow each owner’s feeding, litter, medication, and daily care instructions. Doors and windows are kept secure, food and litter areas are kept clean, and I closely monitor each pet’s behavior, appetite, and comfort. I also provide regular photo updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and well cared for.
“I can't say enough good things about my dog walker! She has been an absolute lifesaver. Always showing up with a positive attitude, she’s proactive, reliable, and genuinely caring. My pup is definitely a handful—she’s dog reactive and not the easiest to manage—but that’s never been an issue. She handles her with so much patience, skill, and understanding. I especially appreciate the photo updates and messages after walks—it gives me so much peace of mind during the day. It’s clear she really gets dogs and loves what she does. I’m so grateful for her help and feel lucky to have found someone so trustworthy and kind. Highly recommend!”
“We had the pleasure of having Anastasia watch our furbabies this past weekend, and we couldn’t have been happier! She was very communicative, thoughtful, and helpful throughout the entire stay. She asked great questions about their care, including things I may have forgotten to mention in my instructions, which gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Our dogs had a wonderful time with her, and we truly appreciate the care and attention she gave them. Thank you so much, Anastasia!”
About: I have over 15 years experience in both dog and cat sitting, including some dogs in their golden years. I have four feline friends myself and understand they usually require a little extra love and patience to feel comfortable. I am available for daily walks and up to twice per day for feedings and check ins. I have more extended time for interactive attention on weekends and Mondays. As an in-home sitter, I want your pet to feel safe and comfortable in your absence by sticking to the routine they’re familiar with. For walks I would love to know of any particular routes they enjoy to keep them happy and to give you peace of mind about their outdoor adventures. I am open to finding whatever works best for your pet- you’re the expert on their care ☺️
About: I've taken care of dogs of many kinds for about 10-12 years now! I've taken a course on training dogs through Dog Academy, so I have a bit of experience with training younger pups! I'm pretty available most days, I'm doing college classes online so my schedule is open! I share a car with my husband however, so sometimes I am only available after 3 pm if he doesn't work from home I always make sure to keep pets from running through the door when I arrive at the client's house. When walking dog's I correct any harsh pulling so their throat doesn't get damaged. I always keep an eye and an ear out for any unusual behavior or sounds!
“Cristal was on time and gave an update on Trunks the whole way through his walks. Trunks had a great time and would definitely recommend as her service went beyond my expectations.”

About: My name is McKayla and I am a canine behavior specialist in the Mira Mesa area. I have always been a true lover of animals! I’ve owned pets (cats, dogs, and reptiles) my whole life. I currently have two happy rescue dogs of my own, Thor and Ebony, who love new friends. I have worked as a dog behaviorist for 5+ years, and am proficient in dog psychology, so the compassionate care I provide comes from a place of genuine understanding of the unique companion that they are (: I love walking so any pets under my care will get plenty of exercise. I am also very attentive to their needs and will be willing to do whatever to make them (and the owners) feel comfortable and happy!! My schedule is rather flexible. I am available for any pup service you may need. Overall, your dogs will be treated as family & are will be in great hands with me!! I am a part-time pet-professional so taking care of your companion is literally my life’s work! I spend ample time with my own dogs, so fitting in time with your furry friend will be no problem. I treat client pets like they are my own when it comes to care, safety, structure, and love. I have worked in a professional dog kennel setting, so I am familiar with long-term care of client dogs.
“Angela is great, very personable. Very easy to work with , and so very in tune with Bear’s needs. She is the utmost professional. It is easily visible how much she likes what she does. Rover.com was a recommendation from my Vet, so glad I took the advice and even happier that I found Angela. Thank you”

“I liked Margaret’s confidence about having my two little poodles stay with her. Nothing was a problem so I hope she meant that and that I can board with her again!!!”
“We boarded our dog Mango with Hana and she took very good care of him! He got a lot of exercise- going on walks, hikes, playing with other dogs. Overall he seems to have had a great time there 😊 She also makes sure to send videos and pictures frequently to keep us updated!”
“Thankful for Nina taking care of Daisy during 3 day trip! She took Daisy on long beautiful walks which is Daisy’s favorite on each day of her stay. Nina kindly provided daily updates and photos, keeping us assured of her safety and comfort.”
“Anna took great care of our dog PJ while we were on vacation. She is nice and thorough, and I could tell PJ was in great hands. My anxious dog needed a calm and understanding environment and she was able to provide that. Anna was able to follow the feeding and other instructions easily, and communicated with me daily, providing pictures and videos of PJ while we were away. I think PJ enjoyed his time so much with Anna because he wasn’t really excited to see me back! Thank you Anna for taking in my quirky PJ and providing for his needs while we were on vacation. 😊”
“I would leave 6 stars if I could. Luciane took good care of our puppies, who were clearly very well loved during their stay. Booking was easy, communication was great, and the photos she sent were absolutely heartwarming. She had treats and toys and puzzles for the dogs... I couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you so much!”
“Stacey and Christopher boarded my dog for four nights and took great care of her! I’d never boarded my dog before nor left her for an extended time so needless to say I was a bit anxious! But after the meet and greet I felt at ease knowing she’d be in good care. Christopher immediately began playing with my pup, and Stacey asked really involved, clarifying questions about her care that I knew they were well versed in the dog sitting world. I received photos and updates while away, and they are always prompt with communicate. Would book again!”
“Corinne and Christopher are great Rover sitters. They were very responsive to messages and most importantly took great care of my girl Busaba. I felt like she was in good hands. I would definitely recommend them and would use them again.”
“Rachelle was WONDERFUL! She sent so many awesome pictures of Enzo during his stay. He was very well-exercised and came home exhausted! Rachelle was super flexible with pickup/dropoff. I will definitely be returning to Rachelle in the future!”
“Jason is fantastic, we are happy repeat clients! Jason takes wonderful care of the dogs in his care and treats them like members of his family. He is a great communicator and is very accommodating. Our Australian cattle dog can be very nervous, but she feels completely comfortable with Jason, which puts our minds completely at ease. We are so thankful to be able to trust she will be loved and looked after when we travel. I would highly recommend Jason to any pet parent!”
“Sarah and her daughter were wonderful!!!!! They kept us updated with pictures of our baby. She seemed happy and at ease in the pictures. We highly recommend Sarah and will refer people.”
“Alegra was amazing with our dog. Excellent communication from the meet and greet up to the end of our Dog's stay. She updated us daily with photos which was really nice. Would love to have her take care of our dog again in the future. Thank you!”
“Gelare and Sama are wonderful pet sitters! We could tell through all the pictures and videos that Gelare took very good care of our little pup. From playing catch to tummy rubs, we were sure our pup was getting all the love and attention we were hoping for! Would highly recommend!”
“We have a sitter we use outside of Rover through personal reference, but wanted to find someone for times when our sitter is not available. I am so glad we found Holly! Holly is so patient and wonderful to our nervous/anxious dog. She understands the need to give my dog space while being available when she's ready for some interaction. Holly is wonderful and is great with communication. She sent pictures daily while our dog boarded with her, made special treats, updated us on how our dog was doing, and was responsive to our all questions. We are so blessed to have found her!”
“Michael was great for my dog Olive! She had a great stay with him and his family. They took her on multiple walks a day and kept us updated throughout the stay. One of the best experiences we have had.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our Gorilla on such short notice. He had the best time with your dogs and I could tell how comfortable he was with all of your photos/updates. Will rebook next time we’re out of town. Appreciate you for sharing your loving home with our fur pup. 💜”
