Cat Sitting Val Verde

About: With 13 years of experience, caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s truly part of who I am. My love for pups started at 18 when my chihuahua was born right under my bed. We’ve grown up together, and now that she’s a senior, I’ve learned how to give older dogs the gentle, attentive care they need. I also recently brought home a lively young chiweenie rescue, so I understand how to balance playful energy with the slower pace of an older dog. Whether your pup needs long walks, cozy cuddles, or just some patient company, I’m here to make them feel safe and loved. I offer in-home visits and pet sitting. Monday through Thursday, I’m available for morning walks, evening drop-ins, and after-work hangs. From Friday to Sunday, I’m free all day for weekend stays, midday walks, or extra one-on-one time. I provide a calm home and a flexible routine, your dog will always be treated like family—getting the care, attention, and affection they need and deserve.

“Melissa was amazing with our cat Penelope. Kept us up to date with photos and all. We had no worries when we were away. Thank you again!”

“It’s very hard to find someone who I can trust to watch my Cane Corso. I was nervous leaving him with someone new but Nihcole took wonderful care of my dog. I am so happy we chose you to watch our dog and cannot thank you enough for making him feel loved while we were gone.”

About: My family and I have been pet sitting for almost 3-4 years now. And I am now moving into my own business where I travel to clients houses for pet sitting! I've taken care of pets all ages and sizes and have had amazing experiences and created so many new bonds and friendships with pets and their owners! I am a college athlete so sometimes my schedule can get very busy during the winter but, I am mostly free on weekends. Any further scheduling or dates needed will require messaging me privately. I only travel to clients houses who need sitters within their home. I accommodate to all needs necessary to make sure their pets feel safe and secure while their families are away.

About: I am a privately insured sitter through Pet Sitters International. *** for the next few months my overnights/house sitting during the week are limited to weekends (fri-sun) only*** sorry for any inconvenience *** I am still available for walks and drop ins during the week! *** I work for a pack walk company in the mornings (m-f) so I do have some schedule constraints which I thought I would put here as Rovers availability time frames are pretty rigid: --Mon, tues I am available starting around 1:30 --wed, thurs and fri I am available starting around 12:30 --Saturday I am available starting 3pm --Sundays are generally open I have had dogs while growing up and continued the trend into adult hood. I have personally owned and cared for two dogs these past 15 years. My last dog was a rescued senior with a host of health issues that we managed with medication, acupuncture/laser therapy, mobility exercises and a couple specialist vets...so if you're in need of senior care I can provide that. I can also provide walks, play, snuggles...basically whatever your pet needs to fulfill them while you're away. About this sitter: I love animals and I want to make your furry companion(s) as happy as they are when you are home with them. I'm up for whatever you're furry friend likes to do (hikes, long walks, ball playing, just hanging out etc). I am super reliable and want to provide the best care to your pooch while you are away! I am a responsible house guest and will always leave things the way I found them. I guarantee your pooch will have a great time! At this time I'm not offering in home services as a couple of my cats are fearful. As for watching your pet in your home I will adhere to your instructions. I am able to provide walks, play, snuggles etc. My dog is a senior and on quite a few medications so I am well versed in administering medications also.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life including dogs, cats, and even pocket pets, like guinea pigs! I have extensive experience with pets of all ages and needs — ranging from puppies and kitties to senior dogs and cats. I previously owned a senior dog that developed diabetes in her later years, so I’m familiar with providing specialized care and attention to animals. I treat every pet like family — with patience, love, and a deep respect for their unique personalities and needs. I’m also a dedicated volunteer with a dog rescue that saves dogs internationally from the meat trade. I transport the pups from the airport to the rescue facility then help them adjust by walking, feeding, and comforting them until they feel safe and secure. It’s incredibly meaningful work that’s helped me grow as a caregiver! Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays I’m reliable, experienced, and committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and comfortable. I provide enriching walks tailored to your dog’s pace and energy level. During drop-in visits I make sure your pet feels engaged and at ease, whether that means playtime or companionship. For overnight care I maintain your pet’s routine and give them the same comfort and affection they’d receive from you. You can count on me to be dependable, respectful of your home, and deeply caring towards your fur baby! I am currently working part time, which leaves me with plenty of availability for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking! I am brand new to Rover, but am an established pet caregiver with over 8 years of experience. During drop-in visits, I make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and engaged, whether it’s feeding, playtime, or just some comforting company. I also provide loving, reliable overnight care so your pet feels safe and comfortable in their own home. I stick to their routine, offer plenty of companionship, and keep you updated for peace of mind. You can count on me to be reliable, respectful, and attentive every time I visit your home.

“Second time using Allisa! She’s such a great sitter. Very friendly, commutative, on time and our dogs love her. She also follows instructions to a T and takes lots of photos during her visits. She’s definitely our go-to sitter!”

About: I am a very patient pet lover with 10+ years experience working with dogs! I have been pet sitting for around 5 years now through word of mouth and am excited to build a bigger community on Rover. I am comfortable and experienced being around all dogs ranging from 5lbs to over 100lbs, I am willing and able to adapt to any of your pets needs. This includes (but is not limited to) simple tasks such as feeding, lots of playing, walking, exercising, following specific schedules etc. but also includes administering medicine, simple training and any kind of clean up! (I’ve seen it all!) At the end of the day I really look forward to bringing you and your pet as much comfort as possible while you’re apart:) I have 2 dogs of my own and worked with dogs that deal with anxiety and some reactive behaviors so I feel well prepared to be there for all babies. I also understand how meeting a new care giver can be scary for both the parent and our furry friends so any adjustment aid such as meeting before hand or going over their daily schedule I’m more than happy to do!:) Can’t wait to connect and care💕 I am a recent college grad and have most of this summer free!! I am happy to take on any work and look forward to being your reliable pet sitter:) My schedule is currently open! I care for pets through love, play and structure. Our fur babies won’t get away with anything but also need to be given understanding, lots of love and care. When it comes to caring for other peoples pets I make sure to give extra care as I’m sure they’re missing their family. I prefer to meet all families and pets beforehand to insure safety and a good fit!!

“Christal was great! She was very accommodating and accepted my last minute request, so thank you! She was very thorough during her visits and made sure that Yuki was able to get her daily medications. Would book again! :)”

“We hired Kimberly numerous times to watch over our big guy, Shadow, and there’s a reason we keep re-booking her! She’s very reliable and gives our boy so much attention while she’s with him. Highly recommend Kimberly for anyone who wants to make sure their pets are in capable and loving hands :)”

About: I've worked with special needs animals all my life from tri-pawds, deaf, and blind animals to those with dietary restrictions, behavioral issues, anxiety, and sensitivity to stimuli. Currently I am also employed by a farm that has working breads for dogs and barn cats. I work with a changing and flexible schedule and three days off per week, leaving me plenty of time for checking in on your furry friend. My animals have special dietary needs along with special care for allergies and sensitive skin. They receive joint supplements, specially vetted foods, special bathing requirements, and seasonal medications. I'm well versed at the care special needs animals require because of this.

“Genna providers our little kitty with so much love and affection! She was so tidy and thorough keeping Little’s box clean. I can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I am a mature professional work from home female. I have been taking care of dogs , cats, birds , fish , rabbits , chickens of any kind since I was 10. I grew up on a family farm. My friends , family , neighbors have relied on me to feed , walk , bathe their pets. I have a small maltipoo Sugar. She is very friendly with small dogs like her. My 16 y/o son loves all animals. They will get a lot of belly rubs. We can train them too. I work from home full time. I wake up at 6:30 walk your pets out for 10-15 mins and then we come back and have breakfast. After that I turn my computer on and your pets can just lay in the sofa next to me or play in other rooms. At lunch we again go out for a walk. We play in the backyard with water hose if it’s too hot outside. And after work we take a walk again. We have beautiful paseos nearby. Before going to bed we take a final walk or backyard potty break. I have a nice fenced backyard pet proofed with a net around where your pets can safely play. We will be walking outside 2-3 times a day. Mostly your pets will be staying home and cuddling with me.
