“Khamsay and Amit were wonderful with Murphy!! They were very thorough at the start of boarding to make sure that they understood all of her care guidelines. We got multiple pictures throughout the day and it seems like Murphy got a lot of walks and play time!! Very sweet and attentive family!”
“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.”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“May and Marc do a fantastic job of taking care of Torrey and sending us daily updates. She is always excited to see them and comes home in a great mood!”
“Jason was very good with my pet and relieved all worries with text and pictures and videos, I am so satisfied with his care. I will definitely use his services in the future”
“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!”
“Julia was awesome with our dogs! We appreciated the nightly updates and pictures! Our dogs enjoyed playing with her husky and seemed very relaxed in her home. Thanks for watching our fur babies, Julia!🐾”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Alice & Micah! Right from the meet-and-greet, they made us feel comfortable and reassured that our pup would be in loving, capable hands. We recently moved to San Diego and were looking for a pet sitter when one of our friends recommended them. Before an upcoming long trip, we booked an overnight stay to see how our fur baby would do, and we couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Alice and her family took incredible care of our dog, keeping her happy, safe, clean, and so well loved throughout the stay. It was clear how much affection and attention they gave her. Alice also shared photos and updates throughout the stay, which we truly appreciated. The communication and care gave us complete peace of mind, and we knew right away that our pup would be with a loving family during our travels. Our fur baby came home relaxed, happy, and clearly very well cared for! We’re so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, responsible, and kind. We highly recommend Alice & Micah to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter!”
“Thanks to Alicia my little dog had her own spa holiday while I was off travelling in Baja. When I picked her up she was happy to see me as if I’d been out for awhile - not in any way anxious - and she was right back to her normal routine with me. A 9 year old, she came from a shelter last July after living with someone who went into care. She’d led a very sheltered life before with, I believe, no contact with other dogs. She is either indifferent or annoyed when they approach in respectful dog ways so it was important that she be the only dog at her sitters. She’s also a cuddle dog and Alicia obviously attended well to that need. Alicia sent me pictures and little notes while I was away. If you want your dog to have a safe, stress free boarding experience, you won’t have any stress yourself if you use Alicia.”
“June had such a great time with Beth. She was kind enough to share a lot of photos with me and was eager to follow the feeding instruction I gave her for my pup’s special diet. I believe Beth can handle any kind of needs required for any pup. Thank you!”
“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.”
“I can't thank Mayank and family enough for the amazing care they provided for my dog during our week away! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. The entire family went above and beyond, spending so much personal time playing, cuddling, and keeping her entertained. They really treated her like part of the family, and I could tell she felt right at home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing that she was being looked after with so much love and attention. On top of that, they sent so many pictures and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel even more at ease and connected to her. I highly recommend Mayank to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their furry friends. We will definitely be back! Thank you again for making our dog's stay so wonderful!”
“Maya and Corwin are truly phenomenal! Pixie enjoyed every minute while under their watchful care. Their daily pictures and updates clearly showed Pixie was loved and cared for. Maya and Corwin also don’t take in more animals than they can expertly care for. Truly the BEST. Will definitely book again!!!”
“Crystal came through for us last minute and she was great with Baxter! She provided an update and showed that my shy and timid dog warmed up to her and her family just as expected. Communication from start to finish was awesome too! Will definitely book with her again.”
“Jocelyn was a great sitter! She was very responsive when it came to communication and appreciated that she asked before treating my dog to a pup cup. Would def book again!”
“This sitter was amazing with my Husky. I have never left her with anyone aside from family because she needs to be watched constantly and she has horrible separation anxiety. My dog immediately took to her when introduced. I was nervous leaving her there, but immediately got photos showing me Bella was OK. She checked in throughout the day. And when I picked Bella up, my dog was excited to see me, but she wasn’t the anxiety riddled full of stress she would normally be after being left. I cannot have asked for more.”
“It was our first time using Kimberly and she was super!! We recently moved from illinois and needed someone to watch Oreo for a few days while we travelled back to illinois. Kimberly was phenomenal! We received several daily pictures including movie nights and walks outside. He really liked Ranger and Ginger, the family dogs. Very accommodating and attended to all our needs. I would give her 10 stars if I could. Great sitter!”
“Michael was amazing with Manu! Sent pretty frequent updates and made sure he was kept busy with often walks and playtime! Highly recommend, definitely will use again!”
“Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.”
“Tiffany and Calvin were great! Super communicative and responsive, they sent lots of pictures of Nia during her stay there. Would definitely have Nia stay with them again :)”

“Samantha did a fantastic job taking care of my two cats. She was reliable, attentive, and kept me updated with photos and messages. I came home to two very happy and well cared for cats.”
“Excellent personality, provides great photos, and provides overall quality and dedicated care. He carried on convos with my cat which I think made my cat feel more at home with me gone.”
“Kaylan was the absolute perfect match for us and our fur babies! When she took the job, we explained that one of our pups, Charlie, is a little "special" and requires extra patience, constant redirection, and plenty of treat bribes. Managing four dogs is no small feat, but Kaylan went above and beyond. She was incredibly transparent, informative, and deeply caring with Charlie, Kona, William, and Quinnie. Right from our initial meet-and-greet, her energy and confidence put me completely at ease about leaving them while we went on vacation. Over the course of her six visits, she kept us updated with multiple texts, photos, and peace-of-mind check-ins. At one point, when the treats started running low, she gladly offered to run out and grab more—an extra step I was incredibly grateful for. I can’t express how thankful I am for Kaylan. Knowing our pups were in such great hands allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our trip. Thank you, Kaylan, for everything! You are a dream come true, and we will definitely be having you back! She gets 100 stars!! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Susan did an excellent job taking care of our cat, Rosie! I really appreciated her updates & how she was sure to address any issues that arose. We would certainly book Susan again!”
“Haley is a wonderful pet sitter who is reliable and willing to go above and beyond to ensure that my cats are happy and well! So grateful to have you in the neighborhood, Haley!”
“Laura has pet sat for our two cats twice now. She goes above and beyond and even stopped by an extra time to check on one of the kitties. She is dependable, always on time, very responsible and a great communicator. I did not worry with her in charge. Hope she is available next time I need a sitter!”
About: I’ve taking care of many animals, puppy to old. I’ve trained my Akita since she was a puppy and know what it takes to care for stubborn dogs. I’m very attentive and will always make sure the animal comes first. I currently work a full time job but it’s fairly flexible when it comes to tasks I need to complete. On top of working full time I am also very excited to work extra hours because I love staying busy and being around animals! I make sure they always have fresh water and make sure the dog has everything they need right as I get there. As I’m leaving, I make sure to clean up after not only myself and the dog, but also make sure I tidy up a space better than I found it!
“Pam was wonderful! She really cares about the cats and takes time to play with them. Her reports were great. I will definitely book her again for my next trip! 🐾😺”
“Jessica is our favorite sitter!! She’s a miracle worker, getting my shy cats to snuggle right up to her, and sending me the cutest pictures. She’s absolutely amazing. So grateful!”
“Maria did drop-in visits for our 5 y.o. cat while we were away for a couple weeks, and she was wonderful! She tended to all of our precious girl’s needs (and she can be very needy), and kept her happy and active while we were out. I’d highly recommend Maria for cat-sitting needs.”
About: With over 3 years of cat care experience, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I provide patient, attentive care tailored to their needs. My background includes working in a compounding pharmacy that specialized in pet medications. This experience gave me hands-on exposure to medications used for cats and dogs and helped me develop the attention to detail and confidence needed to assist pets with medication routines.
About: Hi! I moved to San Diego in July '22, and really enjoy all the outdoor space and amenities available to keeping our pets happy and healthy! I currently have a 15 year old female cocker spaniel named Coco, a 3 year old pit shepherd named Cali, and 2 year old boxer shepherd named Mocha. I love taking them on walks, exploring new neighborhoods together, and giving them all the love and attention they deserve! I'd very much welcome being a part of your pets' lives (dogs and cats) and I'll make sure to give them all my love and attention while keeping things fun! I know there are many experienced dog handlers to choose from, and I thank you for entrusting me with your pets' daily routines. I work from home, and so I'm flexible for walks and drop ins, both weekdays and weekends. I'm generally available after 9am to care for your pets! Since I work from home, I'm with my dogs all the time, so I can easily keep my eye on them. My doors and gates are locked all the time, so no issues with them running out. I'll make sure to do the same at my client's home and I'm happy to follow any special requests they may have to care for their pets.
About: I've had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, fish and hermit crabs. I have a soft spot for senior pets. I lost my senior black lab earlier this year after 15 years together. I would love to help out your family by taking care of your furry family members. I currently work full time as a teacher but have a lot of flexibility on the weekends and after school. I would love to add some after school walking buddies into my daily routine. I have experience as a nanny for children and pets. I am comfortable working in client homes. I have a proven track record of working well with families and respecting their homes and spaces. I treat all animals like the gems that they are by giving them all the love and attention they deserve.

“Wow, Holly is really great and Paco had such a great time with her and all his new doggy friends. So happy we found someone who takes great care of her dogs and has so much space for them as well! Will definitely use her service again and again!”
“Our two dogs spent a full day with Jason and our experience was just wonderful. Upon arriving he brought us into his home to show us around and make us feel comfortable with the environment and with him. He asked us all the right questions about what our dogs might need. The dogs clearly had a great time, were engaged with throughout the day, and we got lots of great photos and videos. Jason was extremely friendly, communicative, flexible, and pleasant to deal with.”
“They have provided such great care for my Belle after moving here recently from Arizona my biggest stress was finding a place for her on my long workdays. So grateful to have found the perfect place for her.”

“Such a great experience. Drop-off was very easy, and I really appreciated the photo she shared of our dog having fun at her place :) It gave us a lot of peace of mind. Pick-up was also very easy. I would definitely leave my dog at her place again!”
“Corinne and Christopher took great care of our Lola! They helped us out last minute and were super flexible with our pick up time due to the fact that we were moving. They are super nice and loved having her. We are super happy we found them and will definitely have them watch Lola for us anytime they want to!”
“Gris was amazing to us , she is very good at communicating and ease every fear you can have. It was my first time leaving my dog with someone else for a long period of time (8 ish hours lol ) and knowing that my dog is not the easiest pup I was very worried and stressed about the whole situation.Thankfully I found Gris , she was able to book us last minute, was very easy to communicate with, sent me pictures and answer my messages promptly. My dog loved spending the day at her house and playing with the other pups, he was exhausted from all the playing at the end of the day. I would highly recommend her.”
“Adam is great!! All 4 paws up from my pup! She ALWAYS comes back tired. He takes her on daily walks/hikes near his house and she is showered with attention all day long. My pup is always very happy when we pull up to his house 😁”
About: I am an animal lover at heart. I have had cats and dogs for a good portion of my life and treat them as my family. Currently I am working with Second Chance Dog Rescue as a foster mom for shelter dogs. Being a foster mom has been a very rewarding experience by providing rescued dogs with the love and socialization necessary to find their furever home. I work from home full-time which will allow your dog to be loved and cared for while you are out of town. I have been dog sitting (for large and small dogs) for friends for 20+ years, as well as, owning my own dogs and cats. While at my house your dog will play with my 3 small dogs and have plenty of time to play in the yard. Book your stay today, I would love to meet you and your dog! I work full-time from home. Your dog will be with me while I work and will play with my three dogs. I take all animals out for potty breaks every couple hours. This routine is very familiar to me as I have been doing it for 14+ years. I have a completely fenced yard. When your dog goes out to play or go potty, I will be there supervising to ensure all is well. I have a big turf area in my yard for dogs to run and play. All dogs will sleep inside the house either with me in the bedroom or in a crate if they are crate trained. I work from home full-time. Wake up time is between 6-7 AM. Dogs are fed around 7 AM for breakfast and 5 PM for dinner. Your dog will hang out with me while I work inside my home. I have a completely fenced in yard where your dog will run and play on the turf with my dogs. We like to play fetch as well.
About: I have been surrounded by dogs for as long as I can remember, growing up in a family of animal lovers. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, including Beagles, Poodles, Pekingese, and many lovable mixed breeds. My true passion for pet sitting began years ago when I started caring for a neighbor’s Beagle who preferred staying with me all day. That experience taught me that I could provide the same deep love and devotion to 'guest' dogs as if they were my own. For the last several years, my husband and I have been raising our own friendly mixed-breed dog, which has been a wonderful experience for our two children. We are dedicated to creating a welcoming, family centered environment where your pet will feel the warmth and safety of a real home while you are away. Your dog will stay in a comfortable home with access to a spacious backyard and a neighborhood that offers plenty of open areas for safe, enjoyable walks. My daily routine includes working from home and transporting my kids to activities, ensuring consistent supervision. There is always someone present in the home. Dogs in my care receive 2–3 structured walks per day(I prefer going to a closest park), along with regular attention, playtime, and a calm, family oriented environment. Safety is a top priority in our home. The yard is secure, and your dog will be supervised at all times, with careful introductions to ensure everyone feels comfortable. I will make sure to follow each dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions closely, and I maintain a calm, clean environment to reduce stress. You can feel confident that your dog will be cared for with attentiveness, structure, and genuine concern for their well being.

Marina’s property has a large backyard so that dogs can freely play around. She also has a large couch that dogs can rest on. they even have a big TV in front of the couch so that dogs can enjoy TV.

“Mark is super nice, professional, mature and trustworthy. This was our first Rover experience so we were a bit skeptical about the type of person we were entrusting with our beloved Westie. Mark gladly agreed to meet with us which gave us a chance to get to know him. So far we have used him for about 8-10 walks and we are super pleased with him and with Rover.”

About: I've been taking care of family and friends dogs for countless of years. At some point I was able to convince my parents to adopt a puppy for my siblings and I. Ever since I’ve been in love with dogs!!! I am currently attending school at Miramar College. And I work a part time job at a Target. But with my free time I love to be active or outside. In my home we have trained our dog to be used to our little bunny. I can walk or run to keep your dog active and joyful
About: We are a husband and wife team who love our furry friends! We have several years of experience as dog parents caring for our previous dogs, Snowball and Nala, who since have both sadly passed away. We realized we miss the companionship of dogs, so we are eager to open our home and hearts to help care for your furry friend. We will care for your dog like our own! We are empty nesters who spend a lot of time at home. We enjoy the companionship of furry friends and providing them with love and care that they deserve all day long! Our spacious backyard has a high fence and can be accessed through a doggy door. Our home is pet friendly and they can easily find their favorite spot to relax whether in the backyard or inside on our couch or bed.
About: Hi! I’m a UCSD student who loves all pets. I have over a year of hands-on pet care and grooming experience, including puppies, adult dogs, and senior pets. Friends often joke that animals trust me instantly, I take that as the highest compliment! I have a Ragdoll cat whom I absolutely adore, and caring for her has deepened my understanding of feline behavior, patience, and gentle handling. I’m outgoing, reliable, and happiest when spending time with pets, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. I’m happy to adjust my availability to fit your pet’s needs, whether it’s walks, playtime, or extended care. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication at all times. I follow pet parents’ instructions carefully, pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and always make sure they’re in a safe and comfortable environment. I believe trust is built through patience, consistency, and genuine care.
About: I have owned cats and dogs most of my life. I have experience with puppies and senior cats and dogs. I have experience administering medication and will follow your directions to a t. I am available for drop in or dog walking Tuesday-Friday 9am-2pm as well as some evenings Monday-Saturday. I care for my dog and cat everyday and will love yours as much as my own. I will follow your instructions on feeding, medication, walk duration, or any other service you need. I am calm and caring towards animals and will provide exceptional care.

“Khamsay and Amit were wonderful with Murphy!! They were very thorough at the start of boarding to make sure that they understood all of her care guidelines. We got multiple pictures throughout the day and it seems like Murphy got a lot of walks and play time!! Very sweet and attentive family!”
“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.”
“Holly was an amazing sitter for Hazel. I received regular pupdates with pictures and in every single photo Hazel looked absolutely comfortable and happy with Holly, her home, and her family (including her 2 dogs). I feel 100% confident and comfortable using Holly’s services in the near future and would recommend her to anyone.”
“Jason was very good with my pet and relieved all worries with text and pictures and videos, I am so satisfied with his care. I will definitely use his services in the future”
“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!”
“Julia was awesome with our dogs! We appreciated the nightly updates and pictures! Our dogs enjoyed playing with her husky and seemed very relaxed in her home. Thanks for watching our fur babies, Julia!🐾”
“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.”
“I can't thank Mayank and family enough for the amazing care they provided for my dog during our week away! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear she was in great hands. The entire family went above and beyond, spending so much personal time playing, cuddling, and keeping her entertained. They really treated her like part of the family, and I could tell she felt right at home. It gave us such peace of mind knowing that she was being looked after with so much love and attention. On top of that, they sent so many pictures and videos throughout the stay, which made us feel even more at ease and connected to her. I highly recommend Mayank to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring place for their furry friends. We will definitely be back! Thank you again for making our dog's stay so wonderful!”
“Crystal came through for us last minute and she was great with Baxter! She provided an update and showed that my shy and timid dog warmed up to her and her family just as expected. Communication from start to finish was awesome too! Will definitely book with her again.”
“Jocelyn was a great sitter! She was very responsive when it came to communication and appreciated that she asked before treating my dog to a pup cup. Would def book again!”
“This sitter was amazing with my Husky. I have never left her with anyone aside from family because she needs to be watched constantly and she has horrible separation anxiety. My dog immediately took to her when introduced. I was nervous leaving her there, but immediately got photos showing me Bella was OK. She checked in throughout the day. And when I picked Bella up, my dog was excited to see me, but she wasn’t the anxiety riddled full of stress she would normally be after being left. I cannot have asked for more.”
“Michael was amazing with Manu! Sent pretty frequent updates and made sure he was kept busy with often walks and playtime! Highly recommend, definitely will use again!”
“Very happy with our experience. Our dog had a great time with Ryan's family. Ryan was easy to communicate with and he was very accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly at the last minute and we had to extend the boarding for a few days.”
“We couldn’t be happier with Slava as our dog sitter! Our dog Oban stayed with her for a week and had such a great time. He loved playing in her big yard and spent hours doing his favorite thing—catching balls. Oban also had fun with Slava’s sweet dog Pumpkin and the whole family, who made him feel right at home. It was clear he was well cared for, loved, and entertained the entire time. We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Slava to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and loving sitter!”
“Marley had a fantastic time with Jenny! She was great about sending lots of pictures and videos so we always felt in the loop. He got lots of trips to the dog park and enjoyed playing with her dog Lucky. I know he’s already looking forward to his next visit with her!”
“This is our first time using a petsitting app. We were so happy to find Anna to board our dog Sammy for 2 nites. It was last minute and Anna was very accommodating. I had an initial facetime meeting a couple days before and I felt comfortable because Anna answered my questions and was overall very pleasant. We dropped off Sammy and showed her what to do with his food n bedding n we were off. I liked that Anna’s home was very nice, clean and orderly from what I can see from her living room. She has a big front grass yard as well as a backyard and Sammy enjoyed it. She walked Sammy 2x a day and made sure to feed him and she let him cozy next to her on his downtime. Anna sent me updates with pictures in am n evenings. We were very happy with her service (Sammy too) and will definitely use her again! Thank you Anna!”
“Michelle and Steve are awesome, they took amazing care of our Husky puppy while we were away. He had the absolute best time staying with them and Daisy! We’d love it if he can stay again in the future and we’re so grateful for Michelle’s organization and experienced approach - even with large breeds. Thank you!”
“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.”
“Margaret & Kyle took such great care of my 4 month old puppy, Kalua! She made sure to send daily pictures, updates, and videos while my husband and I were in vacation. Best of all, Kalua gained a new best friend with their dog, Toffee! We are so grateful for them and will definitely be trusting them with caring for Kalua in the future 💛”
“Junko is the absolute BEST! We have boarded Roxy with other people however nothing comes close to how amazing Junko is. She treated Roxy as her own and was gracious enough to take the time to do a meet up before. We will only be booking with her from now on.”
