Pet Sitting Bella Lago

About: I have had dogs my entire life and have never known a home without them. Over the years, I’ve raised and cared for a variety of breeds, including Rottweilers, Chihuahuas, Corgis, Dobermans, and Miniature Dachshunds. All of my dogs have joined my family as puppies, giving me years of hands-on experience with puppy care, training, socialization, daily routines, and helping dogs grow into happy, well-adjusted companions. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities from large, active breeds to small dogs who need extra patience and attention. I have experience with walks, playtime, basic training, crate routines, senior care, and providing a safe, loving environment. I treat every dog as if they were my own and understand how important it is for owners to feel confident that their pets are in good hands. Tail wags guaranteed! 🐶💞 I’m currently a college student with a flexible schedule, as most of my classes are online or have early end times. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care, including walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and providing companionship! 🥰🐶 My schedule gives me the flexibility to create a routine around each pet’s individual needs. I’m able to give pets the attention, patience, and care they deserve while keeping their normal routines as consistent and comfortable as possible. My dogs are a huge part of my life, and I love making sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, enrichment, and attention every day. 🐾 💞 When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to make them feel comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal schedule, whether that includes walks, playtime, meals, medication reminders, or simply giving them some extra love and belly rubs. 🥰 I truly enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know what makes each pet special. I’ll treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. 🐶✨

“We are SO grateful to Janet and Karen for watching our babies. They have such great enthusiasm and love for animals that when we met them we knew they were the perfect fit for our 2 babies. They were so loving to them and I knew they would be in great hands the whole time we were gone. We will definitely be using them again in the future. THANK YOU LADIES SO MUCH! From the bottom of our hearts. We appreciate you both.”

“Debora did a fantastic job watching our cat over the holidays! She visited our cat a few times and gave her attention, cleaned the cat box, and ensured she had food and water. This was our first time using this app, Debora was able to come over before we left to go over instructions at meet our cat before hand. We will be sure to use her again when we leave town for extended periods.”

About: I’m active duty military who was previously an animal science major. I love and have experience with animals of all kinds. I have been the girl who is outside picking up strays and bringing them home for loving and care. I have experience from working in a boarding home to being a foster mom. My experience with animals aren’t limited to just cats and dogs either, I own a frog and two hermit crabs, I’ve also worked with cattle for a brief moment. I have experience with feeding, administering medication, grooming pets, and much more. I hope that I get to spread my love to all the animals soft and fluffy! If there are any questions about what else I have experience with feel free to ask! Looking forward to working with you and all the cute little babies. I work full time, but my days start early and I’m done around the mid afternoon. I would be able to check on them at active times of the day. I’ll be able to care for your pets as if they were mine. If needed I’m able to stand in for all the things you do with your pet on a daily basis.

About: In addition to having two senior pets and a cat of my own, I currently work as a veterinary assistant at an emergency animal hospital, where I care for pets in urgent situations and have experience recognizing signs of illness, administering treatments and keeping animals calm and comfortable during stressful times. I also previously worked as a client care representative at an animal specialty hospital, where I developed a strong understanding of pet health, client communication, and the importance of compassionate care. Moreover, I volunteer as a dog walker at the San Diego Humane Society and at a pig sanctuary, which has given me experience working with animals of all sizes, ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy who needs consistency and patience or a senior pet who requires a gentler routine and extra attention, I tailor my care to each pet's individual needs. I treat every pet like my own and keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their fur baby is in caring, knowledgeable hands. I am in hospital during the late afternoons and evenings from Sunday through Wednesday. This means I'm available for morning and midday visits on those days, as well as more flexible availability Thursday through Saturday. I keep my Rover calendar up to date and communicate clearly about my availability. When I'm caring for your pet, I make sure they receive the attention, exercise, enrichment, and affection they need while sticking as closely as possible to their normal routine. I am willing and receptive to any wishes, rules and specifications when it comes to ensuring the safety and happiness of your fur baby! I encourage communication and would love to share photos and updates of our walks and adventures!

“Aytanna went above and beyond during their visits with Theia. In addition to the duties we discussed during booking, Aytanna also swept up litter and cat hair, sanitized my water fountain, and was super communicative about when they were coming by. I would highly recommend Aytanna to anyone (especially those with sensitive/shy animals) and will definitely be using them in the future.”

“Highly recommend!”

“Marielle was amazing and I cannot recommend her enough. It was my first using a sitter & leaving my kitten since I got him, but Marielle made me feel completely at ease. She paid attention details & kept me updated while on my trip. Your pet will be well cared for in Marielle’s hands.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all kinds since I was 14, but I’m especially confident with larger breeds like German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets—whether it’s daily visits or overnights. I’m currently studying through Shield K9’s professional program to deepen my understanding of dog behavior and care I'm currently working part-time, which gives me plenty f flexibility to care for your pets throughout the week. 'm available for daily walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays-including weekends. I make sure every visit includes attention, routine, and play. I have a fenced yard and one well-behaved Belgian Malinois who's great with other dogs. I create a calm, structured environment, whether your pet stays at my home or l'm caring for them in yours. I always follow instructions closely, keep a watchful eye during visits, and prioritize safety, routine, and comfort every step of the way.

“Did amazing with my cats! Great communication the entire time she was with them. Highly recommend if you need someone to take care of your kitties!”

About: We’ve been raised around dogs and cats our whole life. As a result, we have vast experience of taking care of animals. Currently, we are the owners of 1 labrador retriever, so we are in tune with the demands and joys of taking care of dogs. We are available for pet care in the morning before 7 and in the evening after 5 Monday through Friday. We are very flexible on the weekends. At our home, we have a fenced in small yard and also a dog park within my condominium which is spacious, clean, and fenced in. When taking care of dogs at other’s homes, we are willing to follow their instructions.

About: I’ve actually had all kinds of pets my whole life, dogs, cats, fish, bunnies, hamsters, turtles so I can confidently say I’m attentive to each one’s personality, habits, needs. I’ve welcomed many stray dogs and cats into my home to care for them and feed them and rehome them. I’ve potty/litter trained countless times and I can train them for meal times, to sit or give paw(dogs), to not scratch the couch(cats). In the last 4 years in particular, family members have asked me to pop by and check on and feed their babies. One household has two very loving and hyper dogs ages 2 & 3 yrs old that have a specific diet and meal times. They are potty trained outside so I walk them 2-3x a day depending on the hours I watch them. Second household has one 14 yr old dog and a 2 yr old cat, also with their own diets and meal times. The dog uses pee pads as she’s older and potty trained outside as well. Third household has 7 cats that range from 1 yr old to 7 yrs old. They’re all more free spirited and independent as they look after each other, they all eat at the same time and have indoor and outdoor privileges. I currently have full and open availability. I’d love to gain more experience looking after pets. My cat is very independent and clean, as long as I feed him in the morning and evening and keep his litter box clean, he’s a very good boy. It gives me the confidence to be able to help someone else with their fur babies either for work or trips. I can do from simply check-ins or stay in nights at a time with them. Im super flexible. As of right now, unfortunately I don’t have the proper space to bring others pets in ): but I am more than dependable and respectful to care for furbabies in their own home. Anything from simple and winging it to a list of instructions, your furbaby won’t see me as an intruder, but as their company.

About: I have been in the dog daycare industry since 2008. I live and breathe for dogs. They make my life better. I managed a dog daycare facility for 15 years in Colorado. We had 150-200 dogs every day. Since moving to California in 2023 I am mostly a stay at home mom with a part time job at doggy daycare here in Kearny Mesa. To say that I “ love dogs” is an understatement. I am pet first aide certified and the years of experience with emergency situations have made so many dogs lives better. I can easily identify all the subtle ways dogs communicate with each and with us to create a safe space for them to just be dogs. The cute little puppies to the salt and pepper face seniors always have a safe place with me. I am currently working part-time with a lot of flexibility. I can help with any routine that you may need for your pup. Communication is key! I’ll go into detail with you on your expectations for the care your need your pup to have. I come with many walking leashes and can adjust to each pets needs. Safety is everything so rest assured that your best friend will be in good hands
