I stick closely to your dog’s routine and make sure they feel secure and loved while you’re away. * “I organize my week with pet care as a priority, making sure I have plenty of time for walks, meals, exercise, and companionship so pets stay happy and comfortable.” At my home, I have two fully fenced yards where dogs can safely run, play, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time and exercise.

“Sean & family are great with our pup. We are return customers and when my dog goes back to them, his tail is wagging and he eagerly greats each of them (especially their dog, Zorian). It is truly leaving our dog with his ‘second’ family while we are out of town.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring extra attention and specialized care. Most recently, I cared for my senior dog for many years, managing daily medications, strict feeding schedules, mobility challenges, and health monitoring. This experience taught me patience, attention to detail, and how to recognize when a dog needs extra support or comfort. I provide a safe, loving environment and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your dog needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication administration, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I am committed to providing dependable care and regular updates for your peace of mind. I am a hybrid worker who enjoys the company of dogs 💜 Taking them out on walks and dedicating some time in the evening on an activity they enjoy is always a good time. I live in a house with a backyard. I have no kids just 1 small yorkie. I dog sit in my home and have never had any problems with potty breaks, walks, or with rough playing with my yorkie.
“Anasteysha and her family were excellent! Our dog Cookie really enjoyed her stay and was able to play with other dogs. Anasteysha was very responsive and sent many pictures/videos while we were away. We will use their services again!”

“Pepper had so much fun. This sitter updated me constantly and sent me pictures throughout the days. My dog had so much fun and felt so comfortable with this sitter. I didn’t have to worry about the safety or wellbeing of my pepper with Gabi. Gabi was super quick to respond to me and asked permission before taking my pepper anywhere. I will absolutely use Gabi again and recommend her to anyone that’s using Rover! This was my first time using rover and this experience really set the tone for the app! Amazing dog sitter!!”
“David watched my dogs for two days. Both dogs have had some reactivity to different dogs/things so I was pretty nervous. David reassured me and was able to guide the dogs through a positive experience and one of them was even able to build new experiences with other dogs. It was such a wonderful experience!!”

About: Cats have always held a special place in my heart. Growing up around pet care gave me experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful and social to shy and independent. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and creating a calm environment. Whether your cat loves attention or prefers their space, I'll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away.
About: Cats have been a part of my life for years, and I currently share my home with three of my own. I understand that every cat has a unique personality—some love attention and playtime, while others prefer a quiet presence and respect for their space. I’m experienced with feeding routines, litter box care, administering medications when needed, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior. Whether your cat is social, shy, energetic, or senior, I’ll provide patient, attentive care tailored to their individual needs.
“I can’t recommend Yajahyra enough! She took such amazing care of my cat while I was away—thoughtful, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. She sent regular updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and a spotless space. Truly the best experience I’ve had with a sitter!”
“Marilyn is the absolute best!! We have a little handicap dog and it’s wonderful to be able to leave her in such kind, capable hands. All our doggies just love her! Highly recommend!!!”
About: At 23, my very first pet of my own was a cat—an American Ragdoll who truly felt like my child. I had never experienced such a deep bond with an animal before. From that point on, our home was always filled with both cats and dogs. At one time, we had four cats and a Golden Retriever, and it was such a joyful and rewarding experience. Although our cats have since passed, my love for them has never faded. Today, I help care for my daughter’s kitten and other cats as needed—stopping by to feed them, spend time with them, and make sure they feel loved and cared for while their owners are away.

About: Hello! I’ve had dogs my entire life and currently now we have a wonderful 50 lb Labradoodle. She is extremely sweet and caring and over the year. We’ve been welcoming more dogs into our home during the day. Thus, we’re creating a profile to keep up this positive momentum. We have a 20 foot partially shaded patio.

I myself often work from home and play with the dogs from 9 AM to 5 PM. We have plenty of toys and dogs can easily access inside and outside of the house to play outside when they want. We have fans and air-conditioning to keep them cool in the hot summer days.

About: **BASE ACCESS** and ranked Star Sitter ⭐️ Proud dog mom of two-- Elsie (boxer/husky, a tripod!, 13), Carlie (Golden/German, 8). I recently moved back to Oceanside, but have walked/petsat all of the furry/feathered friends full-time on Rover for a year in Colorado! You can find more client testimonials or cute pictures on IG under my business name: LittleChaosPetCo 😺 You can expect that your pet will come back from any visit with me safe, happy, and probably....very spoiled. So here's to the next chaotic adventure! 🤙🏼🌊 I do Rover full-time! I am available for housesitting, drop-in visits, and walks; please feel free to reach out, even if it's same-day. AND -- now offering boarding + day care! I have a big yard with a separate pen, so everyone's safe and happy at all times :) PLEASE NOTE: If you'd like to do a meet and greet and you're selecting "drop-in"'s, please select an additional drop-in for the meet and greet. If you have any questions about this, feel free to reach out and we can work something out :) So here's the thing. That older tripod boxer I have? She taught me every. single. lesson. a person needs to know to keep their dog safe. I am constantly scanning for other dogs, prey, physical obstacles etc. during walks and play time. I practice safe introductions whether or not your animal is familiar with the other animal we may encounter (neighbor, etc) because I'm also aware that their behavior might change from how they behave with their parent vs me! I think it's important your animal sees no change in their environment as far as trust/safety--their routine should stay exactly the same, if not with the addition of some more adventures!

This is key for us since we have bullies and they really need to know who the pack leader is. Lauren is very personable and you can tell that she takes pride in what she does. She is also great with communication. While we did run into some unexpected challenges as our pups familiarize themselves with a new walker, Lauren has been committed. We highly recommend Lauren for pet services!”

“I recently boarded my dog Maxx with Sarah and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we arrived, she was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about animals. She took the time to get to know my dog’s routine, preferences. I loved that she provided regular updates and photos, so I could see how much fun Maxx was having during playtime. When I picked him up, he looked happy, and clearly well cared for. I would use her again !”
“Danielle and Austin, as always, were incredibly kind and caring with Rocco! And I really appreciated the thoughtful pictures and details, they even left some treats for me and Rocco at my door! Soso grateful to have such loving neighbors like them.”
“Such a great family! They took really great care of our dog at their home for a week. We loved all the updates and pictures along the way. Easy communication and will definitely book with them again!”
“Sara took such great care of my boy Bubba. She is so kind and punctual and sends lots and lots of pictures and videos everyday. She listened to everything I had to say and incorporated that into her care of Bubba. I would highly recommend Sara and will be booking with her again!!”
“Cooper had so much fun with Erica and Felipe! We will definitely use them again. We had daily updates with pictures and Cooper was having a blast the entire time we were gone.”
“Sean & family are great with our pup. We are return customers and when my dog goes back to them, his tail is wagging and he eagerly greats each of them (especially their dog, Zorian). It is truly leaving our dog with his ‘second’ family while we are out of town.”
“Rachel & Charles are absolutely amazing! They took such good care of my pup. They kept me updated throughout his entire stay. Definitely will be booking them again! You won’t regret it.”
“David watched my dogs for two days. Both dogs have had some reactivity to different dogs/things so I was pretty nervous. David reassured me and was able to guide the dogs through a positive experience and one of them was even able to build new experiences with other dogs. It was such a wonderful experience!!”
About: As a USMC veteran and lifelong dog owner, dogs have always been a big part of my life. I work from home full-time, which means your dog will have plenty of attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. 🐾 I am a dog adoption coach and volunteer dog handler with Labs and More Rescue in San Diego. Through my rescue work, I've gained experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. 🐾 My wife, Ellen, is a former Humane Law Enforcement Officer and lifelong animal lover. She has extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats and shares my passion for animal welfare. 🐾 Over the years, we've cared for dogs of many breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. We currently share our home with two rescue dogs and three indoor cats. 🐾 We know that every dog has different needs, routines, and comfort levels. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where your pet feels at home while you're away. Toby works from home full time, so your dog always has a real person present and engaged throughout the day. No empty houses, no lonely pups. Our yard is fully fenced and secure. Toby is home all day, so your dog is never unsupervised. We have First Aid and CPR training, and between Toby's work at Labs and More and Ellen's background in Humane Law Enforcement, your dog is in experienced hands from drop-off to pick-up.
“She took such great care of Lance! She was very responsive and kept us updated with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was also very flexible with our dates and times, and that really helped make everything work out. When I mentioned that Lance has separation anxiety and tends to bark when he hears other dogs barking, she immediately told me that she has a similar dog and is very familiar with the breed. That instantly made me feel at ease and confident that Lance was in great hands. I could tell she genuinely cared about him, and I would definitely trust her to watch Lance again in the future!”
“I was super appreciative of Justin taking my last minute boarding request. He was communicative and sent me pictures during the 2 nights he had Zuly. I would absolutely book again. Thank you Justin and Michelle for being so good to Zuly and so accommodating.”
“Our second time with Melissa and our Penny girl was so happy. We feel so good having Melissa take care of our girl. It’s like our doggy is also getting a vacation! Having Melissa now as a trusted pet sitter has given us so much joy!”
“Tristin is GREAT! She cared for our dog like her own. It was our first time using a service & we were able to relax & enjoy ourselves all night. Tristin was very communicative & shared many pictures. Our dog was happy & he loves her. We will book with her again & highly recommend.”
“Maddie is a great dog sitter! She’s very responsible, and took care of our dog Teddy very well. She is super responsive and nice, and sent pictures and videos of our dog very day! She is really dedicated to caring for him, and played with him a whole lot! She is well organized and caring, and we will definitely come back to let her dog sit again!”
“Erica did an outstanding job for us. She took care of our doggy and shared with us a great pic: our doggy was literally smiling :). Erica is a great sitter that we definitely use again in the future! Thanks a lot!”
“Douglas is extraordinarily attentive, kind and a very good communicator. If he was concerned about anything or had questions, he was sure to ask. He also filled me in on how she was doing as far as eating, going on walks and sleeping. Best of all, my pup Riley loved him at first sight! Always a good sign :-) I highly recommend Douglas to watch your 🐶! Riley will definitely be back!”

“Alexandra was great and easy to communicate with! She took in Louie during a busy holiday season and was accommodating to stay with him during new years since he doesn’t do well with fireworks. Received updates everyday. Would recommend!”
