Linda was willing to come stay with our animals with short notice. Our dog is senior and requires a patient and attentive care giver as well as someone that will be at the house a lot. Linda was wonderful and made sure that he had what was needed. Our fickle cat also really enjoyed having Linda stay. Both were given constant attention. I highly recommend Linda and we will have her come again.

About: I have grown up with many different types of dogs and loved every one with my entire being. I enjoy dog walks, fur cuddles, and spending time with furry friends at any time of the day. I have a very open schedule and I am happy to spend as much time with furry friends as needed! I have a job but it is flexible and easy going. My dogs are well behaved and we only have to crate one of them if any of us leave the house. We play music for them during the day to make the outside noises not so obvious. I am happy to accommodate any pet care that is needed.

Another great job by Debra. She left the house clean and our dog appeared to be well taken care of. Debra was accommodating/flexible with our start time and willing to get up early with our senior dog. She also sent updates and was quick to respond. Thank you!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for family and friends starting in 2016. I have a genuine love for animals and believe they require caring individuals to look after them when there owners are away. I currently work full time during the week 10am-6pm. Overnight care or long periods during the evening would work out best. Mornings from 5am-9am would work out for me also. I live in apartment with no yard, but I live right next to the beach and an amazing trail for walking and playing and exercising.

Jocelyn was amazing with my pups, always asked questions when she had them and sent daily updates and pictures. My dogs were super calm and relaxed around her. I will use her again to dog sit in the future!

About: Growing up, my home was filled with life—twenty pets of all kinds, each with its own personality and story. From tiny hamsters to cute cats, to loyal dogs, every creature became part of the family. Each day was full of responsibility, from feeding schedules to vet visits, but it never felt like work. Those moments taught me empathy, patience, and the joy of nurturing living beings. Watching them grow and thrive was one of the greatest gifts of my childhood—a chaotic, loving household that shaped my heart and showed me the beauty of unconditional care. I do part-time videography, alongside vanlife. I have a very free schedule to care for your pets needs along side consistent videography; if you desire that. If you at all need help with creating social media for your pet, I love to edit and would love to create videos to show off your wonderful pet. As a part-time videographer with over a million followers cross-platform, I balance creativity with flexibility—leaving plenty of time to give your pet the care and attention they deserve. I’m happy to combine my two passions: animals and storytelling. If you’d like, I can even create fun, high-quality content that showcases your pet’s personality and turns their adorable moments into social media gold. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or camera time, your companion will be in great hands.

About: I've loved dogs ever since I can remember! My first dog, Zoey, showed me how important connection to dogs truly is. I work well with dogs of all ages and energy levels and I’ve had the opportunity to dogsit for a couple years now and love getting the chance to meet any new pups. I’m currently home for the summer, so I have a flexible daily schedule in which I have plenty of time to visit with and care for your dogs. I spend tons of time outside and love getting to be around any pups. I’m very detail oriented, so I can efficiently watch over dogs and am able to take any safety precautions medical concerns into account in order to create a safe and trusted environment.

About: I’ve trained puppies all the way to senior care. They all deserve all the care, love, and play time and that’s what they’ll get with me! I work part-time and make my own schedule so I will make sure to be available whenever your furry friend needs me during the week! I have an English mastiff who loves to play with other dogs. But if we are at your house, I will try to keep them out of the crate as long as possible.

About: Most of my experience is with younger/middle-aged dogs, and I focus on making them feel safe, engaged, and cared for. I try to meet each dog where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable. I’m currently a student in college, so I have a lot of gaps in my schedule that I would love to fill with your pets! I’m available at varying times during the day and available most nights. I treat each home with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow the pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure in their familiar space.

About: Hi everyone!! My name is Pricila currently based in Isla Vista!☺️ I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have cared for 10+ dogs over the years. Some of my dogs even had puppies, so I’ve had hands-on experience helping raise litters and taking care of young pups from the beginning. I’m comfortable helping with things like feeding schedules, potty training, teething puppies, basic grooming, playtime, and making sure pets get the attention and care they need. I’ve also cared for older dogs and understand they sometimes need a little extra patience and help, whether that’s giving medication, helping them move around comfortably, sticking to special diets, or just keeping them relaxed and loved. I truly love animals, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working part time and doing school at the same time so my availability is after 3pm Monday-Wednesday. Thursday-Sunday I have full availability! I currently don’t have a fenced yard but I am walking distance away from the beach! So me and many fur friends can run along and play at the beach. If beach isn’t your favorite environment, I also live near dog parks! No other fur friends in my home so I can dedicate as much time and energy to the fur friends!

We were SO surprised and delighted with how Bonbon IMMEDIATELY fell in love with Arissa! Clearly, she has an animal-loving heart. She sent plenty of much-appreciated pictures and she was patient and loving as Bonbon went through her initial confusion and settled into "happy to be with a good person"! Will definitely call on Arissa again! :-)

About: I've had dogs my whole life. Growing up we had a mix, then a German Shepherd. As an adult, we had an Australian Shepherd for 16 years. He grew up with our children and is sorely missed. I have experience caring for and administering medications. I love playing and walking dogs, I especially like hikes and walks on the beach. I work part time so my hours and days are flexible. My availability allows should allow plenty of time to take special care of your pet. I have a fenced yard and baby gates in my kitchen, so if home care is needed it is possible that I may care for your pet in my home.

About: I have had a black lab since I was 13 back home in New Jersey. I love spending time with her (Luna) whether it is going for walks or swimming at the beach or just watching tv. I have taken a lot of care of her especially when she had stroke and lost a lot of function in her body so now she walks with a limp. I am good with understanding dogs, taking care of dogs, and playing with dogs. I also have experience watching my cousins dogs over multiple weekends and have been paid for overnight stays watching dogs over the weekend. I am very interested in finding a dog to walk and hangout with for the next couple months and would be happy to meet with anyone! I currently just graduated college so I have no real routine or schedule for the next two months before my actual graduation ceremony. My schedule is very flexible and I will likely be gone one or two weekends maximum and here in Goleta on the weekdays. I can’t accommodate a dog in my home right now since I have other roommates. However, I’m happy to come to whoever’s house and watch their dog there or just take the dog for walks.

Chelsi was great. We we out for about 7 hours while she watched Sheilah. She sent us updates and pictures. Since we were out of town, it was reassuring to have such a competent, confident and friendly sitter . Nothing but praise for Chelsi. We will use her again if the situation arises.
