“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!”
“Araceli is great and her house is perfect for my smedium sized dog! I know that Scout felt at home and enjoyed running around her yard when she wasn’t lazing around. That allowed me to enjoy my trip knowing she was in good hands thank you Araceli for taking such good care of Scout! 🐾”

About: My whole life I've been around cats, such curious and beautiful animals! They have always been drawn to me, even the most cautious. Kitty cuddles and play time are important when you're away. I can't wait to meet your lil furry family member!
About: I believe that a happy dog in the home is essential and a precursor to a happy life overall, and I strive to bring the same attentiveness and care that I share with my own pup to any pets I have the privilege of taking care of through my services on Rover. When we meet the basic needs of our precious companions throughout the day, we have more freedom to bond with them, and them with us, and that’s where I come in! I want to help you meet your home pet care needs and goals so you can feel confident that when you come home after a busy day, you are coming home to a dog or a cat that is happy and well taken care of. I want to ensure that your pet’s routines stay intact, that they get plenty of exercise when needed, that they stay safe, and it is a joy to me to provide that service! I work from home, and my day is already built around caring for a dog. Morning walk first thing, breakfast, play, a walk around 5:30 for dinner, evening walk before bed, with attention and rest woven in between. I follow instructions exactly, keep your pet's routine intact, send photo updates, and treat your home and your dog's space the way I'd want someone to treat mine. On walks, I match the pace to the dog, calm dogs get a relaxed walk, energetic ones we stay moving, and I stay attentive to reactivity triggers and adjust accordingly.

“Leah was great! She came over a few days early to meet our cats and learn about their needs. She gave us updates and lot of pictures. I was very impressed that she was able to get so close to the our cat and successfully give pills to the other cat. I would absolutely rehire her.”
About: Whether your cat is shy/fearful, overstim, high energy, and or super confident, I meet your cat wherever their needs are! I aim to provide your cat a sense of safety, confidence, and love while you are away and have experience with cats of all ages, behavior, and medical needs. I have had the privilege of living with cats my whole life and have 7 years experience in working with cats, from neonates to seniors in a shelter environment. I can provide medication and additional care needs as well.
About: I have several years of experience caring for cats. I love their little personalities and think they’re so cute. I have experience administering medications, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, and playing while doing so in a loving and caring way. I am a former Registered Nurse so I have plenty of experience administering injections. I also like to spend some of my free time volunteering with the animal shelter where I have learned so much. I can’t wait to meet you and your beloved kitties.

About: I've been around dogs for most of my life and grew up in a home with dogs as part of the family (My mom had 8 dogs at the same time at one point). While I don't currently have a dog of my own, I've spent years helping friends and family care for their pets, whether that's walking them, checking in on them, or providing company while their owners are away. What sets me apart is that I genuinely love spending time with animals. I'm active, patient, and attentive, and I enjoy adapting to each dog's personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I'm happy to provide the care that makes them feel comfortable and loved. I also have a special appreciation for large breeds! One of my favorite dogs was a Saint Bernard named Profesor, and he taught me that big dogs are often the gentlest souls! That said, I adore dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and personalities. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and cared for while giving you peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my routine! I'm very active and love being outdoors, so dog walks are something I genuinely enjoy. I've always been the friend and family member people call when they need help with their pets, and spending time with dogs is one of the highlights of my week. Since I don't currently have a dog of my own, I love being able to give my time, attention, and energy to other people's furry family members. I'm a very responsible, caring, and attentive person. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and safe. Whether I'm visiting your home or taking your dog for a walk, I'll follow your instructions closely, provide lots of love and attention, and make sure your pet is happy, exercised, and well cared for. I also don't mind dogs riding in my car if transportation is needed for walks or adventures.
“Hanna did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats while I was gone, and left everything at the house in tip top shape! Very pleasant, responsible, smart, capable. This made for a worry-free trip for me! Excellent and definitely recommend!”
About: Growing up in a dog family, I have experience with training puppies, every day care, and dog walking. I understand what dogs need to thrive and it brings me joy to be able to care for them so that they can thrive and live healthy lives. I am available for extended weekends as I work a hybrid schedule locally. I know the neighborhoods really well and am well equipped to care for your pet with love and responsibility. I am available for dog walking and dog sitting, or drops ins. I am ultra considerate of each pet's needs and understand that each pet is unique. Following your care instructions and acting responsibly is my utmost priority while caring for your animal.

About: I’ve basically grown up in a zoo! My family has always had animals around— multiple dogs, birds, turtles, fish, a cat, and at one point even 13 guinea pigs. Because of that, I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and am very comfortable around pets with different personalities and needs. Dogs have always been my favorite. When I was a kid, my sisters and I even started our own little “doggy daycare” for neighborhood dogs, which was honestly one of the highlights of my childhood. Today, my family has three dogs, and I love spending time with them whenever I’m home. Since I’m now living in San Diego and my family is in Los Angeles, I don’t get to see them as often as I’d like. Rover gives me the chance to spend time with dogs, help pet owners in the community, and do something I genuinely enjoy. I understand how much pets mean to their families, and I’ll treat your dog with the same care and attention I would give my own family pets. Just graduated from USD, so I have lots of availability and free time to be with your pup pretty much every hour of the day! I live in an apartment with no pets, but plenty of pet friendly furniture! I would frequently take the dogs out on neighborhoods walks, out to the park, or even the beach depending on the dog and owner preferences! I also live less than a block away from the Humane Society, in case of an emergency!

About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life, including dogs of all sizes. I am experienced in giving medications, walking, feeding, and taking out for potty breaks and doing so in a loving and patient manner. As an animal lover I also like to give back to the animal community and have done so by volunteering at the animal shelter where I have learned so much. I am a former Registered Nurse so I have plenty of experience administering shots and I am currently looking into vet tech schools to pursue a new exciting career working closely with animals of all kinds. I am excited to meet you and your furry friends. I currently have 2 cats and 3 grand pups. That’s right. All 3 of my children have adorable dogs and I help care for them every week. I enjoy walking them, feeding them and playing with them. I would have a dog of my own too, but I live in a tiny apartment and my 2 cats, Simba and Floyd are my best friends. I have worked as a dog walker in the past for a company in Carlsbad where I gained valuable experience. I will provide exceptional care for your pets in your home.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats in my house for as long as I can remember! I’ve helped train puppies and foster kittens that require a high level of care. I have previous experience pet sitting for multiple animals at once and I love getting to know new animals!

I will create a safe and loving environment for your pets but being attentive and caring. I’m familiar with the area to walk pets in safe neighborhoods.
About: Veteran who is an avid rescuer of both cats and dogs. I have been rehabilitating rescued dogs for 12 years and I have had a cat my entire life. I currently volunteer at the San Diego Humane Society as part of their dog team. I specialize in dealing with timid dogs (My own dogs have been from a rescue with behavioral waivers) and helping dogs learn basic obedience procedures (sit, stay, heal, law down) while walking. My passion is helping animals feel safe. On week days, I am available after 5pm and I am available all weekend. I enjoy giving dogs the amount of exercise and stimulation needed to help alleviate stress, loneliness and anxiety. Furthermore, I am more than qualified to clean litter boxes, feed your animals and provide a safe and reliable person within your home. Now that I have returned to office full time, I am not longer unavailable for mid day walks, but I do still welcome the opportunity to walk/feed your pets in my non work hours. I have experience taking care of your animals in your home where there is minimal interruption in their daily routine, no matter how many special instructions need to be followed.

“We would highly recommend Sam as a dog sitter based on our initial stay last weekend. Sam provided daily updates on how our Minnie was doing along with sending photos with Minnie smiling and appearing very comfortable with her temporary “Mom” and new family, JJ, Sam’s very sweet and playful dog.”
“Michelle was wonderful patient flexible and took great care of of our dog who ended up having a special medical needs that arose that morning. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“Madyson was great! She asked lots of questions that showed she adapted her care to my pup. She took tons of photos & Sadie came home nice and tired. Would recommend!”
About: I’ve had a dog in my home since I was 3. I’ve taken care of pups at all ages and all stages, I will love yours like I love mine. I believe they all deserve the best in life! I work from home so with them all day and close to a park for plenty of walks and outside time. I also have a dog who loves having guests and friends visit! I have a fairly spacious apartment and allow dogs to be on furniture and sleep with me and my pup. If you prefer crate I can accolade that as well!
“Shelby and her family were super nice and I could tell they gave my dogs lots of attention. She communicated great and sent daily pictures. My dogs loved all the outside time they got. Would book again!!”
“Pam was great with our dog Bentley! She was easy to communicate with from day one, clearly a dog lover, and kept us updated on how he was doing. It was a bonus for me that Bentley got to spend time with her dog Xotchil and they went to a dog park daily. I would highly recommend Pam to others and I’m sure we’ll use her in the future again.”
About: My experience started off with my very own dog when I was a child living in England, I learned from a young age how to take care of a dog and keep them happy. I moved to America 10 years ago and have since been providing dog walking, sitting and general care with several dogs continuously for this whole period. The dogs I have taken care of have ranged from golden doodles, Belgian Malinois and teacup terriers. After 10 years of experience with the same dogs, I am ready to branch out and help you and your dog! I work from home full-time which gives me a lot of flexibility in my available to spend time with your dog and for drop offs and pick ups. Besides an hour at the gym and an hour I walk a dog daily I will be able to provide your dog with all the love and attention they need. I like in apartment with a balcony so if your dog were to be staying at my home it would include having an indoor/outdoor area (the balcony is enclosed), I am also right next to a trail and the bay is less than a mile away so this would be where I would walk your dog. In your home, if you have a routine you would like me to stick to, I’m happy to do so!
“It was our first time using Rover and we were a little nervous! Sam was easy to communicate with. He has a great set up at his house and a good group of dogs he cares for on a regular basis. He sent pictures and updates of Cali throughout the weekend and we came home to a healthy, happy, tired pup. Would definitely recommend and will absolutely book again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and own a large German shepherd of my own! Your pet will be in good hands with me! Currently freelancing so I can be flexible with part and full time sitting duties depending on your needs and schedule. Let me know what works best for you! Pets are looked after consistently as if they are my own. As a work from home person, I am completely available and ready to assist.
“It was our goofy guy’s second time staying with Jocy, and he was so excited to see her again! We could tell he had such a great time with her this stay too, and she is super attentive to his needs and his personality. We loved all the photo updates. We will definitely be using her services for any future traveling we do. :)”
“Jordan was wonderful and took both of my dogs. She was communicative, sent photos regularly, and kept me updated throughout their stay with her. In the photos I could tell my dogs were relaxed and happy (especially when she took them to Kate Sessions). Thank you Jordan, and highly recommend!”
