House Sitting College Area

“Stella went above and beyond when caring for our pups. We were very nervous about leaving our dogs for an extended period but Stella eliminated all worries immediately and exceeded expectations. It is obvious that Stella genuinely cares for and loves animals, from the way she talks about her own dog to the way she consistently showed up for our dogs. In addition to the day to day routine, Stella took our dogs to the beach, bathed them, and left the house in immaculate condition. She is a fabulous communicator, sending photos and updates daily as well as letting us know if she had any questions or concerns which we really appreciated. Coming home to a clean house and happy pups is a great feeling! I would recommend Stella to all and look forward to booking with her in the future (I know my dogs do too)!”

“Callahan was very gentle with our pup and made her feel comfortable from the start! She was very flexible and communicative which helped us feel comfortable about our trip away from our dog. Callahan also helped us take out the trash. We would definitely hire her again.”

“Stephanie did a great job house sitting for us on short notice. The dogs, the cat, and the house were all well taken care of. We got updates and photos daily and felt comfortable right from our meet and greet. We'd definitely book again!”

“Royce was well taken care of throughout the day. Paige stopped by at our planned intervals throughout the day and provided relevant updates. When we got home Royce was happy to see us, but also seemed content after his day with Paige. Thank you, Paige!”

“Chase was the best! He was very active and loving with our 1 year old pup, Fenway. He was extremely communicative, friendly and warm. He sent several video and picture updates throughout the weekend and Fenway looked so happy in every one! Chase left our home very clean and took great care of everything. We look forward to having him back…and Fenway misses him already!”

“Kaitlin was a wonderful companion and caregiver to our suite and shy dog Sadie. She came over and stayed with our dog while we were out of town and I could not be more pleased. She won our dog over with her sweetness and caring, and our dog has a hard time trusting anyone! She showed Sadie the love that she needed and was phenomenal! I would hire her again and again!!!!!”

“Sage was WONDERFUL! My little fur baby can be quite the handful (she’s very hyperactive), and Sage was so great with her! She constantly sent me pictures and assurances that my dog was doing great while I was away. She definitely helped ease the worry I had from being away from my baby!”

About: Lifelong dog lover with lots of experience! I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and cared for every step of the way. I grew up with a golden poodle and absolutely adore dogs. There a lifelong best friend. As a college student, my schedule is pretty flexible. I have classes Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’m free most of the week and have plenty of time to care for your pup! I’ve been dog sitting for years and truly love caring for every pup I meet. I treat them like family, giving them lots of love, attention, playtime, and walks while making sure they always feel safe, happy, and comfortable. 🐶🤍

“Courtney was amazing!! Lots of pictures and updates throughout our time away. Which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away. We came home to bedding in the wash, packages on the counters, and happy dogs. She was able to calmly handle a stressful situation and ensure our dogs were kept safe. We appreciate all that she did for them. We will most definitely be using Courtney again.”

“Maureen was amazing giving us updates and sending pictures so we felt at ease even when we were across the country from our Lily. She also left a super sweet note and magnet she’d made. Will definitely be rebooking.”

About: I’m mama to four crazy cats: Mark, Quid, Star, and Wally. They’re the most recent squad in a long line of kitties ( + one doggy!) that came before. I’m very comfortable around sassy pets, as well as ones with special diets or medication needs. I took care of my Delia doggy for 3 years, with all her rambunctious walks and homemade meals. I’m currently working part-time evenings in La Mesa, typically 3:00p-8:30p at the most. I am off work and completely free on Mon/Tue/, but I am available throughout the week to drop-in and housesit, provided I can fit it around my work schedule. I’m very flexible! I’m ready to handle any special dietary requirements (including cooking), as well as medication needs. I’m comfortable with crating dogs and/or banishing cats to a certain part of the residence. I have a bunch of little escape artists, so I’m always careful to account for everyone and keep the space organized.

“Mesa did a fantastic job of loving on our 2 large pups (6 year old lab shepherd brothers) and home. She kept us updated with pictures and was super prompt with communication. We returned from our 4 day trip to happy and healthy dogs and a spotless home. Thank you, Mesa!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I had 2 labs and a German Shepard growing up. I currently help dog sit and walk my neighbors dogs and my schedule is extremely flexible I currently have an extremely flexible schedule so I can work Monday through Sunday and I am willing to work with anyone on fitting my schedule around their needs. I currently live in a small ADU Unit in a backyard that is fenced off from my neighbors who own two friendly dogs, due to how small my unit is I would prefer to stay at a clients home if I needed to dogsit overnight!

About: Doggy Mama of 10 years for my sweet Wheaten Terrier, Suki! I have been with her for all stages of life: curious puppy, energetic teenager, and mellow adult. This has taught me how to adjust towards whatever needs your pet may have. No matter the attention your furry friend needs— whether it be downtime and cuddles, or zoomies and long walks— I am here to provide! I can administer medication, and will easily adapt to the schedule/routine that your pet requires. I am a sophomore student at San Diego State University, majoring in Criminal Justice. I have classes Monday-Thursday starting at 12:00pm and ending by 4:00pm. I live on campus and have a car so transportation is not an issue. I am able to pet sit at anytime throughout the week that I don’t have classes- and am willing to stay over night and/or through the weekends. Caring for your companion will vary depending on personality and routine but there are definitely some core principles that I carry with me. First one being respect— respect of your home, respect of your animals needs and wants, and respect of your time. I will be present as much as I can be, even if that means just sitting in the same room as them. Another core value, depending on your pet, is exercise. It doesn’t matter if it’s a long walk, a short and slow walk, or even just interacting with toys— something that gets them moving and keeps them entertained. And a big one is love, I promise to absolutely adore your animal and show them kindness in whatever ways they need. That could look like self care: brushing their coat, massaging stiff joints. That could look like affection: rubbing on them, talking to them, and making sure they know i’m here for them. And that could also mean giving them space. Any adjustment that I can make to give you and your pet a smooth experience, I would love to do.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 15 years old and I’ve always had a genuine love for animals. Over the years I’ve looked after pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’ve volunteered at adoption and rescue centers. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply giving them plenty of attention and affection, I treat all pets like they’re a part of the family. I’m dependable, patient, and committed to providing loving care while you’re away. I’m always available! Please reach out to me to work around our schedules! I work a part time job so I am available when your best friend needs me! I live in a pet friendly apartment community with a dedicated dog spa, so your best friend can enjoy a bath if needed. I also have two friendly puppies fully vaccinated who can provide companionship for social pets. If your dog prefers their own space or has a different energy level I am able to safely crate or separate them to ensure every pet is comfortable, relaxed, and receives personalized care based on individual needs.

“Great communication, responsiveness. Kiersten stayed 4 nights with our dog - will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals for over 14 years. Friends, neighbors, family, friends of friends, I’ve spent 20+ weekends a year house/pet sitting, and have averaged 3 dog walks a week for the last 3 years. I also have my Dog, Cat, and Pet First Aid Certificate as well as my Pet CPR Training Certificate from American Red Cross. Right now, I’m taking online courses for my profession. In between classes I would like to take breaks by taking care of animals. It’s both a stress reliever and something I love to do. I keep an eye out for any safety concerns or measures that need to take place to ensure the safety of your animals. Safety is key!

“One of the best sitters I have had some pet sitters on this app are absolutely horrible and have mis treated my Pomeranian.But she was so nice and respectful and did so amazing with my dog highly recommended and I booked her again immediately God bless”
