About: As a dedicated and experienced dog sitter, I bring years of hands-on experience with dogs of all temperaments, including fearful and anxious pups. I've successfully trained my own dogs as well as several friends' dogs, and I’m constantly expanding my knowledge by reading training books and watching videos to refine my skills. My love for dogs started when I was 10, and it shows in the compassionate care I provide. Whether your dog needs some extra attention, training, or just a fun companion, I’m here to help! Currently, I’m working part-time from home, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time for walks, playtime, and personalized attention to each dog I offer pet sitting both at my home and in clients' homes, ensuring your pet feels comfortable wherever they stay. I’m happy to follow your pet’s established routine, including feeding, walking, and playtime. At my home, your pet will have the company of my two friendly pets who love to play, creating a fun and social environment

13. Marlee E.
“I volunteer with Marlee at a dog rescue in La Mesa called the Animal Pad. She is so very good with the dogs. She cares for them so deeply and takes care of them so well. She just has a way with all of the dogs that very few people have. I would totally trust her with any type of dog or cat.”
14. Leah N.
“Leah is reliable and caring, made me feel better about leaving my cat for a trip. When I got back my cat was doing well and in a great mood. Thank you!”
15. Angela G.
“Angela has taken care of our precious little friend and family member for many years. She is always thoughtful and caring to our lil buddy. She has a way with him. I completely trust her judgment and care. As a Certified Veterinary Vet Tech she has education and skills to complement her amazing care. I highly recommend her!”
16. Jazmine S.
“Jazmine will be an awesome caretaker for someone’s pet. When you end up, and get a good vibe from seeing your pet wag her tail out of excitement, that right there tells you that that person must have a good heart and a good personality. Jazmine enjoys walking my dog (anytime of the day or night). My dog loves to direct you to where she wants ‘you’ to walk so she can do her business (lol). Jazmine has the patience and calm to care for your pet. You will definitely enjoy Jazmine as your caregiver.”

20. Brianne R.
About: I've always had animals in my life I could remember. I've owned everything from dogs to ferrets, so I definitely have some experience. I currently have 2 cats and I am not allowed dogs at my apartments, so any chance I get to walk a dog I will take it! I can do Fridays and weekends for sure, but I may be able to sneak in a few walks during the week day too. Just let me know and I will try to work it out. I will ask all questions I can about your pet to make sure there are no doubts or mistakes made so that your friend will have the best care I can provide!
