1. Isabella B.
“We love Isabella! She is so compassionate, caring, and understanding. Our pup is not always easy to deal with and she does it gladly and with the utmost professionalism. She is very communicative and flexible also! Highly recommend.”
2. Analisa S.
“I’m so thankful to have found Analisa! My dog is super shy with new people and takes a lot to warm up. She sits with him for a full visit if he refuses to walk, and eventually got him to walk to our neighborhood park after several visits. Knowing he is cared for takes my stress away while I’m at work, thank you Analisa!”

5. Carol T.
About: I’ve been fostering for the past year and love seeing them get out of their shell. I provide a safe and comfortable presence for them to shine! Have also been a dog sitter for friends and family the past three years! I work in office Tues-Thurs 10a-7pm. Other than those times I can be available and flexible since I can work from home the other days. Let's chat to see what days and times work best for you and your bestie! We can always discuss what arrangements can be made to make sure you and your pet are the most comfortable and assured while you’re away.
6. Emily C.
“THE BEST! We are traveling in the Encinitas area with our extremely active dog. Emily has taken her hiking twice! We paid for the hour long walk service and it was well worth it. Immediately you will note that Emily is extremely kind and loves animals. Would 1,000% recommend booking with her.”
7. Camryn S.
“Camryn loves animals more than people! She’s kind, caring and a great pet sitter, walker, or playmate for any pet! She is a total animal-lover!”
8. Nicole J.
“Nicole watched my two chihuahuas for a week. I could not have been more satisfied with her care. She always updated me on how they were doing with pictures. She took them on multiple short walks throughout the day. They came back to me happy and healthier than when I left them! My kids have been sneaking them table scraps and she kept them on their diet I asked her to do, and they came back noticeably trimmer! They were never lonely and spent the days with her as she works from home. Even at night she let Hurley cuddle her! She is very sweet and I 100% recommend Nicole!”
9. Caroline S.
About: Ever since I was little, I have loved taking care of animals. I started by watching my neighbors pets while they were out of town, and walked dogs after school! I currently have a dog of my own and would love to be able to take care of others pets! I have personally had 2 dogs but have taken care of 10+ dogs in the past. I’d love to take your dog on a walk, throw the ball around, or even just hangout with them! I also grew up with cats and even took care of a litter of kittens! My schedule is very flexible! I’m happy to work out a plan for what you and your pet need. I know how important it is to have a trusting, reliable pet sitter. I expect the best for my pets and will treat your pets the same! I’m happy to drop into your home to take your dog on a walk, throw the ball around, and of course give them lots of love!
10. Hailey S.
“Hailey is THE BEST dog walker. She has done a great job with my medium/large dog. If you are in Point Loma / Ocean Beach, give Hailey a call!”
11. Kelsey G.
“Kelsey is amazing with dogs! She grew up with them and loves them so much. She runs miles and miles a day alone so she can walk a dog for hours if they need! She’s compassionate and her dog gets better treatment than I ever had.”
12. Jane A.
“Jane’s love for pets is truly heartwarming. She has a dog of her own and looks after her with so much love and care ensuring that she stays active and healthy by bringing her on walks everyday and playing fetch in the dog park. She extends the same love to my pets by treating them as her own.”
13. Adam S.
“Adam is so caring and loyal. He understands and connects with dogs on a deeper and pure level, and with folks alike. He’s the kind of kind human that genuinely sees the good in everyone, and our fur friends respond accordingly with respect, ease, and playfulness. A walk around the neighborhood, meal and play time, or seeing the need for a calm space—your dog will be in capable caring hands. Our 16-year-old, 10-pound Maltipoo needs a little extra TLC and took to Adam immediately and happily greets him at the door every time he arrives. Our family fully trusts Adam with our beloved dogs.”
14. Casey S.
“Casey is the absolute best! Always does more than expected and there is never a doubt that my dog and home are being well cared for while I’m away. Highly recommend.”
15. Drew D.
“One thing you’ll notice right away about Drew is her cheerful and pleasant personality. Not only is she responsible, trustworthy, and caring, my dog loves her!!! And why wouldn’t he? Drew takes him for as many walks as he can handle, pets him as long as he wants, and treats him like he’s a member of her own family.”
16. Patrick H.
“Patrick and I are in the same neighborhood dog group. Animals and babies love Patrick, including dogs and cats that are shy with new people. Whatever this talent is, my dogs were at ease with him when they first met and that was a first.”
17. Kenzie H.
“Kenzie was the perfect person for our anxious fearful dog. She’s super patient and understanding with him and even gave us some helpful tips when we did a meet and greet. Would definitely use her next time!”
18. Jane A.
“Jane is great with animals - she has been a doggy sitter for our golden retriever many times and I know I can always trust her to take excellent care of our pup! She’s extremely responsible, dependable, and treats our dog like her own!”
19. Macy M.
“Macy has been both a childcare giver and loving pet sitter for my family for over 13 years. She is the most responsible, smart, fun and active person to care for our family members. Our kids are now old enough to not need her to watch them but our pets still do! Macy often watches our 2 dogs and 2 rabbits at our house. When we get home from vacation the animals are so happy with the love, daily walks and trips to the park that Macy gives them. Macy is definitely someone to be trusted with your home and give love to your pets.”
20. Lydia C.
About: I have had dogs my whole life and I currently have a 10 year old Vizsla! She’s my bff and we love to snuggle. I’m looking to spend more time with other dogs and to go on some walks. My dog is not too fond of walks and I would love to bring a dog on my daily walks! I have two part time jobs meaning I work at random times! They usually start after 9 am and I’m done between 4-8pm! I am great with scheduling so this shouldn’t be a problem I will always keep the dog leashed in places that are unfamiliar and are not fenced. I will also make sure that I build trust with your dog! I realize that I am a stranger and they will need time to warm up to me.
