“Araceli was fantastic watching Roxy and Sushi! She kept me updated with plenty of photos and videos, so I always knew how they were doing. Both pups clearly had the best time and came home happy and relaxed. I’ll definitely be booking with her again — 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.”
“Ana is my go-to sitter in San Diego! My dog gets anxious away from home and Ana created a calm and welcoming environment. He’s also a picky eater but takes oral medication everyday. Ana was able to ensure he was taking his meds. It was such a relief having someone so wonderful and attentive watching him while I was away. I also appreciated all the communication—lots of photos and texts describing daily walks and activities and anything that was out of the normal. Can’t recommend Ana enough!”
“Chau is such a great dog sitter! She is responsive, engaged and enthusiastic. I really appreciate Chau's excellent communication in person, via text and through photos. My dog was very well cared for over the weekend and came home happy and tired from all the fun. I will definitely use Chau again because of her obvious love for dogs and her enthusiasm to watch them.”
“Madelyn was incredibly communicative and provided photo updates throughout our pup’s stay. It was our first time using Rover and she made it such a smooth experience from drop off to pick up. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”
“Alisiene was an exceptional dog sitter! She was incredibly responsive, flexible, and understanding of my schedule. From the moment Lucky stayed with her, I knew he was in great hands. She took excellent care of him, made sure he received all of his medication, and was especially attentive to his needs since he has limited vision. Alisiene also did an amazing job with feeding him. Lucky is a very picky and lazy eater, but she somehow managed to get him to eat all of his meals, which is no small feat! It was clear that she paid close attention to his routine and made sure he was well cared for. She took him on multiple walks each day, kept him comfortable and engaged, and provided regular updates throughout his stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I also really appreciated how organized and thoughtful she was—when I picked Lucky up, all of his containers, dog bowls, and belongings were returned spotless and thoroughly cleaned. It was clear that Alisiene genuinely cared about Lucky’s well-being and treated him like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Alisiene, for taking such wonderful care of Lucky! 🐾❤️”
“Phillip is one of the best dog sitters I’ve found on Rover! He is very attentive, follows care instructions, and was super accommodating to our booking and requests. Thanks for taking such great care of maya and keeping her so active during her visit!!”
“Kaitlin and Verle do an amazing job at watching our dog and keeping us updated on his stay. We love having them take care and home our dog, for that reason we are repeat customers.”
About: Had my Golden Retriever over 14.5 years. We are very patient, around the house all day, and have some toys and treats that our sweet Bailey girl left behind we’d like to share! Will take your pup on walks, make sure they are fed appropriately and give lots of complimentary belly rubs. Both of us are home a majority of the day. We are active. Happy to take your pets on walks or any outdoor activities they may enjoy. Have a large condo so plenty of space. Can crate pet if you’d like but am flexible as long as pet is comfortable in our home. Have separate rooms and areas to put pets in if there are multiple or need their space.
“Rylee had another great stay with her fave babysitter, Ken. She gets so many walks and all the cuddles she needs. Ken expertly handles all her puppy energy and early morning wake ups. Rylee is looking forward to her next stay:)”
“Alex was outstanding! He was super communicative and attentive to our sassy Frenchie’s needs! He sent lots of photos and made our dog feel right at home. We highly recommend Alex!”
“Cristina was the best sitter I have had for Valentina! She was extremely communicative and made me feel that Valentina was safe throughout her whole stay. I had several delays to my trip and Cristina was super flexible, allowing Valentina to stay longer than expected. We appreciated this so much. Book with Cristina, she is awesome!”
About: **🐶 Caring, Responsible & Ready to Help** While I’ve spent most of my life caring for cats and have never had a dog of my own, I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and am excited to provide reliable and loving care for them. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m attentive, patient, active, and happy to follow your dog's routine, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship and comfort. I love animals, enjoy spending time outdoors, and will make sure your dog feels safe, cared for, and loved while you're away **🏡 Flexible Schedule & Plenty of Attention** My weekly schedule varies, but it allows me to spend a significant amount of time at home. On some days, I’m home throughout the morning and don't leave for work until around 12:30 PM. On other days, I return home by 3:30 PM, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your pet. My husband also has a flexible self-managed schedule and is often home throughout the week. This means that your pet will rarely be left alone for long periods and will have plenty of companionship, attention, and care. When caring for pets in my home, I follow each owner's instructions carefully to make sure their pet stays comfortable and happy. I maintain feeding schedules, keep litter boxes clean, provide fresh water, and respect any special routines or preferences. I also make time for play, companionship, and affection, while paying close attention to each pet's personality and needs.
“Fatima was great, she has a spacious yard for my dog to roam around in. I received frequent updates on my dog. Will definitely use her pet services in the future.”
“Izac is the man!!!! Saved the day for me. I had left my dog with another sitter that I was not stoked on. He went out of his way to go pick up my dog, took great of him, sent me tons of pictures, took him in walks. My dog was happy when I picked him up. Thanks Izac!!!”

“Monica was great! She followed our instructions perfectly. She was on time, took good care of our cats and was very communicative. We will definitely use her again.”
“Barb was AMAZING! I never leave my cat but had to leave the country for 2 weeks and was incredibly nervous because my cat has had health issues recently. Barb not only took extra care to ensure he was happy and healthy but went the extra mile to ensure he didn’t feel alone. She came everyday at the exact times we had discussed and hung out with him and gave him all the extra cuddles and attention he needed. I could not recommend a better pet sitter for your furry friend and I will 100% be contacting her again when I need extra help. Your pet will be in the best hands ever if you book Barb! The most reliable person ever and she will update you everyday to keep your mind at ease. Thank you Barb for making it easy to actually relax on my vacation instead of stressing about my cat! So much gratitude!”
“Kali is amazing! I always know my cats will be checked on and taken care of well. My cats have warmed up to her which makes me so happy! I highly recommend her!”
“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!”
About: I’ve always been comfortable caring for cats and understanding their different personalities and needs. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, play with, check in on, and care for their cats while they were away. I know how important patience, cleanliness, and a calm environment are for cats, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
About: I used to have a roommate that had a cat, and have family and friends that have cats. I am not as experienced with cats as I am with dogs, but I also know that usually they take care of themselves, regarding needing their space and food, though each cat has their own needs! I am flexible and responsible in helping out your needs.
“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!”
“Vanessa was great! My cat tends to be skittish and kind of unwelcoming but he seemed to take to her super well. Appreciate all the extra effort playing and spending time with him.”
“Rachel went above and beyond to take care of my cat while I was away. She was always on time and was regular with the updates. She genuinely cared for the well being of my cat and followed the instructions I left for her. She also organized the area where she played with my cat. I would definitely book her again for her drop in services when I am out of town!”
About: For cat parents 🐈⬛🐈😻: I cared for a lovely cat for 1.5 years that I dearly miss. I cannot board cats in my apartment, but I can do daily or twice daily cat visits for clients along with the duties of liter box / feeding / play time. I care for all animals as if they were my own, because I understand the anxiety of leaving our furbabies when work or travel calls. 🥹❤️🩹🥰 I’ve loved caring for my Bombay 🐕 the past 5 years, and have dog walked + dog sat + cat sat for friends countless times. Please reach out to me so we can arrange care! >>> I can often accept SAME-DAY-care requests after 9 AM if my calendar shows me as available. (I understand sometimes things happen last minute and you need a trustworthy person to step in and care for your pet).
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Emily provided for our two cats while we were away. She went above and beyond our expectations, making sure they were well-fed, comfortable, and happy every single day. We loved receiving her daily updates complete with adorable photos and sweet notes about what the cats were up to. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such caring and capable hands. Emily’s attention to detail, genuine love for animals, and extra effort truly set her apart. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and devoted pet sitter”
“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!”
“Crystal did an excellent job caring for my fur child. Crystal was very punctual, played with and gave lots of attention to my cat while I was away. I will be booking Crystal again and highly recommend their services.”
About: I have some pet care experience, particularly with puppy training and senior pet care. I understand their unique needs, ensuring they receive the right attention. My dedication to providing personalized care and building relationships with pets and their owners makes me a great choice for pet sitting. Pet care is an important part of my day. I have flexible hours during the week and weekends, so I can take good care of your pets. You can count on me to give them the attention they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety is my top priority. I keep the environment clean and remove any hazards. I follow routines for feeding and playtime to keep pets happy. I also stay in touch with pet owners to ensure I'm meeting their needs and preferences.
“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!!”
About: I absolutely love animals. As a kid, I took an immediate interest in knowing just how to communicate, and understand dogs and cats. I even went with a friend to her puppy training course to learn more at age 10. Since then, I've expanded my knowledge and am pretty good at understanding body language. Just like humans, animals need to feel safe and comfortable with a new person. I understand that each animal has their own personality and quirks. Which can mean a different transition period for every pet. I'm a patient and understanding animal lover, I'll make sure to let your pet know that I mean them no harm and they're safe with me. No matter how long that takes. That goes for you too! Especially during this uncertain time. I'm very flexible and I understand this is your and your pet's home. Please rest assured that I will ahear to any requests made regarding health and safety. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member! I recently moved back to the area and am available for scheduling. I have standing appointments on Mondays and Fridays from 2:30 until 5pm, otherwise I am happy to play with your pups! I make sure to write down all of your pet's specific needs and instructions. I keep a very clean house and make sure that all windows and doors are locked at all times. If there are specific security measures you prefer I.e. (leaving different lights on at night and/or a radio on) I'm happy to oblige. I will never let your pet off leash and will always go by the rules and suggestions you have given me. I will always clean up after your pet! As I've mentioned before, I listen to you about any quirks your pet may have and make sure to work with them.
About: Hello. Thank you for your consideration. I have cared for cats all my life, and I’ve continued rescuing and fostering titties with my wife for the past five years. Please let me know if I can answer any questions you may have.

“Chau went above and beyond for my dog. She kept me updated throughout the day with pictures and videos. And my dog enjoyed hanging out with her pups. Amazing sitter!”
“Leigh was amazing! I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs. I was worried about getting a dog sitter for Pierre, particularly out of town, but it was phenomenal. She made the entire experience completely stress-free. She gave frequent updates and my sweet boy really enjoyed spending time with her.”
About: I used to have a cat and a hamster and currently own a dog. 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!
“Alexandra was OUTSTANDING. Excellent communication, on time, reliable, and so kind to my new rescue. I had several people decline taking my new 1 yr old rescue but Alexandra came to my rescue! I will for sure be using her service again. She was so patient and gentle. Her own pups look so happy, that tells you a lot. And my pup was so happy to see Alexandra and her pups daily for daycare. Thank you!!!”
“Isabella is incredibly caring and responsive. She kept us updated with messages and photos of our dog throughout the stay, which made us feel relaxed and at ease. I especially appreciated that we didn’t even have to ask! We’ll definitely use her daycare service again when we’re in San Diego. Highly recommended!”
About: I’m a stay-at-home and remote working (part time currently) tech marketing professional, here in the heart of San Diego. This affords me **95% full flexibility and availability** in times I can provide dog walks, drop in visits, and accept daycare/boarding drop offs and pick ups! :) I care for all animals as if they were my own, because I understand the anxiety of leaving our furbabies when work or travel calls. 🥹❤️🩹🥰 I’ve loved caring for my Bombay 🐕 the past 5 years, and have dog walked + dog sat + cat sat for friends countless times. I live in an apartment with my chill 7 year old pup, and we enjoy walks in the neighborhood and the grass park every 2-4 hours. (On hot days, we drive straight to the grass park to avoid the cement/asphalt). This life style, with a commitment of only a flexible few hours of computer work at home each day, gives me a chance to give plenty of attention to all fur babies in my care. Especially for pups who may feel more at home in a relaxed setting (instead of the chaos of bustling day care centers or confines of a boarding kennel), my apartment can be the *calm* oasis for them whether the need care just for the daytime or for extended overnight boarding. 🥰 For cat parents 🐈⬛🐈😻: I cared for a lovely cat for 1.5 years that I dearly miss.

“Adrian was amazing! She was super flexible with my changing plans. I love that she gave a full update at the end of the stay so I knew he was in good hands! Totally recommend:)”
“Ashley took great care of Momoco. She was always responsive whenever I texted her. I am incredibly grateful that she treated my baby as if she were her own. I will definitely book with her again if I come to LA in the future!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Lisa is so fantastic. She took the best care of my little girl and made sure she was comfortable and confident. You can immediately tell she's a dog lover and understands their little personalities and needs. She was so easy to communicate with, extremely flexible with drop off and pick ups, and sent the most adorable photos. Thank you so much, Lisa!”
“Hooli had a great doggy day care with Shane and Chris! It was our first time leaving our 7.5month old puppy and I could tell she was in good hands. We received lots of photos and updates which put mind at ease!”
About: I have cared for bottle babies all the way to senior animals that need meds and additional support. Big and small I love them all! I have socialized the shyest of cats, and the pups that pull and bark. I can administer medication oral and otherwise. I also know how to use a variety of leashes and collars. I have walked over 300 dogs, and work with a reputable rescue in SD to foster cats and puppies. I am my family and friends’ resident dog sitter for many years! I’ve also volunteered at shelters and adore all animals. I’ve even sat for snakes, Guinea pigs, and a skink! I work full time from home, so I will be able to give your loved one 24/7 care! I love taking walks around the neighborhood in South Park, and so naturally already spend a lot of outdoor time. I live right next to a dog park, and have a lot of flexibility. We have a dog friendly resident cat, and thus have a lot of cat and dog equipment at all times in our home. A lot of cozy spots to rest! I will care for your pet as if theyre my own! I am the trusted go to person for all my family and friends, and have over 20+ years of experience. I also work with a reputable rescue in SD who have done frequent home visits and partnerships. I’ve cared for over 100+ animals in my home or the person’s home. I follow instructions very well, and am a very neat and tidy person!
“Austyn has been THE best. Saved us last minute when our fence broke and my girl was eloping while I was at work. Meesh gets happy wiggles whenever she hears his name and that is more than enough reassurance for me!”
“It was clear that our 2 year old pup had a great time playing with Jessica's dog all day. She passed out on the couch right after dinner with no interest in training or treats, she was that tired (which we love for her). We look forward to having Jessica care for her more in the future.”
“Natalie exceeded my expectations! Dropped off a new puppy for the evening and everything went perfectly. The pup came home happy and even slept through the night, will definitely work with Natalie in the future!”

About: I grew up with a family dog and have cared for both dogs and cats throughout my life. I am used to cleaning, feeding, and playing! I am patient and look forward to caring for your children as my own- with love, respect, and care. I am currently not working this summer and will be available weekdays and weekends to care for your furry kiddos! I am pretty flexible at this point. :) I currently live in an apartment with two loving cats. I am used to caring for both dogs and cats in this environment. We have grassy yard out front the apartment for the doggies!
About: Hello. Thank you for your consideration. I appreciate you, your loved one (pet), and the responsibility of caring for them. Please let me know if I can answer any questions you may have. I’m currently fully available, around the following schedule: Tue-Sat: N/A 3-4 pm Tue-Wed: N/A 1:30-3:30 pm . . . . . . . . . I appreciate the opportunity of a walking or running partner (dog), roommate (cat) and promise to care of your loved one as if it were my own.
About: From age 6 I have been caring for all kinds of pets. From my own dogs, cats, and even rats to my neighbor’s pets, to even working at a pet care boarding facility, you can trust that I have years of experience. I am in online school full-time. This means my schedule is flexible and I can give full attention to your furry friends!

About: I got my first dog at 10 years old and have been around animals my whole lite. In the last few years, my professional life became centered around animals as well. I started off at a doggy daycare/kennel and have plenty of experience providing animals with various levels of care. After a short while, I realized that my passion in life lies within veterinary medicine. I work at a very busy animal hospital where I’ve taken on several different roles including customer service representative, veterinary assistant, and inventory manager. I currently have two dogs of my own and I couldn’t possibly love them more than I do. They’re my children and I spoil them rotten. Every client I have whether that be in the hospital setting or pet-sitting can trust that I will always care for their pets as my own because my two pups are my world and that’s how I hope a veterinary professional or pet sitter would treat them. I work 4 10 hour days during the week but aside from that I have a very flexible schedule. Making sure any pets in my care get proper love and attention is a top priority of mine. I can even bring pets I am watching to work with me if desired so that we can hang out on my breaks and lunch hour. I live in an upstairs apartment so I personally have my dogs pad trained for emergencies and take them outside to use the bathroom (while leashed) every few hours during the day if I’m home. Otherwise my partner who works from home takes them out or they use the indoor pads as trained. I don’t typically encourage letting dogs be outside by themselves EVEN if the yard is fenced in. Working in veterinary medicine has made me all too aware of the freak accidents that can occur so I’m very much a helicopter mom to my own girls and even more so to my clients’ pets. Trusting someone to watch your animals is such a huge leap of faith and I take that incredibly seriously.
About: *Located in Golden Hill/Sherman Heights* PLEASE READ: We have a kitty and dog at home and always need to do a meet and greet before boarding your pet. I have years of experience sitting for fur babies with varying needs, including puppies/kittens, seniors, and animals with disabilities. I grew up in a home with two dogs and two cats and learned how to navigate unique animal ‘personalities’. I am calm when there is chaos, make good judgements when it comes to the health and safety of our beloved pets, and am communicative with owners. Needless to say, I have a special gift with animals and will take care of yours like they are my OWN. We have two fenced yards at our house for your pets to spread out and enjoy :) While I work full time from home, I am able to accommodate walks, play-time, and even vet appointments because of the flexibility of my remote job. I have one friendly dog (River, a 6 year old Bulldog/Boxer mix) to keep your pup or friendly kitty company in my home, but am open to staying at yours, too. If River is not invited, my partner will stay home with her so I can look after your doggie or kitty in a place they are most comfortable. I am familiar with crate trained animals, as well, and do not leave animal unattended for more than 3 hours. We have plenty of parks near our house and already enjoy long walks with our dog - we’d love to add another to the mix!!
About: I have some pet care experience, particularly with puppy training and senior pet care. I understand their unique needs, ensuring they receive the right attention. My dedication to providing personalized care and building relationships with pets and their owners makes me a great choice for pet sitting. Pet care is an important part of my day. I have flexible hours during the week and weekends, so I can take good care of your pets. You can count on me to give them the attention they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety is my top priority. I keep the environment clean and remove any hazards. I follow routines for feeding and playtime to keep pets happy. I also stay in touch with pet owners to ensure I'm meeting their needs and preferences.

“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”
“Kaitlin and Verle do an amazing job at watching our dog and keeping us updated on his stay. We love having them take care and home our dog, for that reason we are repeat customers.”
About: Had my Golden Retriever over 14.5 years. We are very patient, around the house all day, and have some toys and treats that our sweet Bailey girl left behind we’d like to share! Will take your pup on walks, make sure they are fed appropriately and give lots of complimentary belly rubs. Both of us are home a majority of the day. We are active. Happy to take your pets on walks or any outdoor activities they may enjoy. Have a large condo so plenty of space. Can crate pet if you’d like but am flexible as long as pet is comfortable in our home. Have separate rooms and areas to put pets in if there are multiple or need their space.
“Rylee had another great stay with her fave babysitter, Ken. She gets so many walks and all the cuddles she needs. Ken expertly handles all her puppy energy and early morning wake ups. Rylee is looking forward to her next stay:)”
“Izac is the man!!!! Saved the day for me. I had left my dog with another sitter that I was not stoked on. He went out of his way to go pick up my dog, took great of him, sent me tons of pictures, took him in walks. My dog was happy when I picked him up. Thanks Izac!!!”
“Michell w was absolutely incredible and made Boogie feel right at home. I received a lot of cool video updates of my little guy and Michelle was juts excellent& super flexible. I will absolutely be booking with Michelle again and you should too!”
“Ben took great care of our dog! She got along great with his dog, Bodie, and they enjoyed time together on walks and around the apartment. We could tell our dog felt comfortable and enjoyed her time staying with Ben. Wonderful dog sitter and highly recommended!”
“Isabella was very nice and patient with my animals. Always letting me know how they were doing and what they were up too. She took very good care of both my dog and my cat and loved them like they were her own.”
“We had an amazing experience with Matthew! He provided thoughtful updates throughout her stay, which really put me at ease. My dog has anxiety, so it means a lot to see her comfortable and happy with someone new—and that’s exactly what happened. When I picked her up, she was excited to see me and still playful with him, which says everything about the trust and bond he built with her. I’m so grateful for the care, patience, and attention he gave her. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him, especially for dogs who need a little extra understanding.”
“Carolina and her husband are wonderful! They took such good care of our pup while we were away. They were super flexible with a last minute booking and kept us in the loop with photos and updates throughout the weekend. It’s clear our dog had a great time with them and we’ll definitely reach back out in the future for other sitting needs! Thanks so much Carolina :)”
“We had a fantastic experience with Melissa. She was extremely responsive, provided us with updates and photos throughout Bella's stay and was flexible in terms of drop off/pick up. She obviously spent a lot of time with Bella and made sure she was comfortable in her new surroundings. Melissa provided peace of mind that Bella was in great hands and getting loads of attention. We'll definitely reach out to her the next time we head out of town.”
“I would definitely be using Jessica for Future bookings. She's nice and pleasant soft spoken and gentle with my cats. Jessica sent such cute pictures of the cats to let me know how they were doing throughout the day. I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a pet sitter”
“I have had my dog Percy for about a year in a half, he has had to wear diapers however ( male wraps) which has made it hard for me to find a sitter , So i went on Rover and found Anar, after our meet and greet she agreed to have Percy stay with her for two nights with no Problem at all. She attended percys special request with diapers as well as kept me comforted with pictures throughout the stay, he was walked, attended too and got a long with her Dogs. Anar was great and i will be requesting her again for Percy.”
About: I’m a stay-at-home and remote working (part time currently) tech marketing professional, here in the heart of San Diego. This affords me **95% full flexibility and availability** in times I can provide dog walks, drop in visits, and accept daycare/boarding drop offs and pick ups! :) I care for all animals as if they were my own, because I understand the anxiety of leaving our furbabies when work or travel calls. 🥹❤️🩹🥰 I’ve loved caring for my Bombay 🐕 the past 5 years, and have dog walked + dog sat + cat sat for friends countless times. I live in an apartment with my chill 7 year old pup, and we enjoy walks in the neighborhood and the grass park every 2-4 hours. (On hot days, we drive straight to the grass park to avoid the cement/asphalt). This life style, with a commitment of only a flexible few hours of computer work at home each day, gives me a chance to give plenty of attention to all fur babies in my care. Especially for pups who may feel more at home in a relaxed setting (instead of the chaos of bustling day care centers or confines of a boarding kennel), my apartment can be the *calm* oasis for them whether the need care just for the daytime or for extended overnight boarding. 🥰 For cat parents 🐈⬛🐈😻: I cared for a lovely cat for 1.5 years that I dearly miss. I cannot board cats in my apartment, but I can do daily or twice daily cat visits for clients along with the duties of liter box / feeding / play time. Please reach out to me so we can arrange care! >>> I can often accept SAME-DAY-care requests after 9 AM if my calendar shows me as available.

“Mihaela was such an amazing sitter. She sent us the best updates with so much detail every time. Our puppy Ollie seemed so happy the whole time and when we picked him up he was very happy as well. We couldn’t be more thankful for Mihaela and how caring and thoughtful she was with our puppy!”
“Vanessa was able to watch my dog last minute, and took very good care of him! I was very happy with the amount of attention he got, and I felt that he was very well cared for. I would book with Vanessa again in the future!”
