Gigi C.

“Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby. I appreciated the updates and photos and helping relieve both Bodie (and my) anxiety. Appreciate all your help today!”

“Sara was fantastic! She accepted Monty at the last minute after another Rover sitter canceled. Sara took Monty for 3 daytime outings. Monty enjoyed the walks and her attention. She was very accommodating to our schedule. Definitely would schedule her again.”

“Camille was amazing. She took our booking last minute and was super flexible with our drop-off and pick-up times. She was so genuinely eager to hang with my dog and thanked me for trusting her with my pet. She provided pictures, videos, and details regarding bathroom breaks, water, walks, etc. and she made sure to let me know that my nervous, elderly pup was very comfortable and at ease during her stay. 11/10 recommend. Ty so much Camille!”

We feel at ease as puppy parents and we will absolutely continue to consider Tiffany when she has availability ✨🐾”

About: I used to have a cat and a hamster and currently own a dog. I have personally trained him and he is now living with my family! I currently go to college in the morning so my availability will be the afternoons along with the weekends in the afternoon and night! I can do boarding on the weekends while caring during the afternoon on the week days! I enjoy playing or relaxing with your animal depending on what they like to do! For dogs, there is a pet relief area in my apartment building however if they are not comfortable with that and/or you have a senior dog, i do have fake grass on my patio right outside of my apartment!

“Ashley took a good care of our dogs, and they looked very happy when they were back home. We got frequency photo updates as well. I would definitely recommend!”

About: Dogs give us "2 paws up" for our slumber parties. :) Dogs are my cause. I've been nurturing and protecting them for 14 years. I've also learned from them and been protected by them ... because dogs are the best species on earth. I have a soft spot for senior, special-needs, and shy dogs. I’m a fiercely protective dog mom and dog Aunty whose beloved boy Django just passed away at 15. He was my heart dog and soul dog. Still is. He was a senior, arthritic, deaf dog with other special needs and health challenges. I dedicated my life to exceeding his needs whether emotional, mental, spiritual or physical, and whether about diet, lifestyle or environment. I became an integrative wellness practitioner for dogs so that I would be educated and prepared as Django went through different life stages. Some of his successes include overcoming separation anxiety, handling hearing impairment with grace, managing arthritis well, stopping tremors, beating liver disease, having agency about his time to die, and staying connected even now. I’ve taken care of dogs for the past 14 years, starting with Django (adopted then), his pals, neighbors’ dogs, and other clients. In New York City, I had a referral-based doggie B&B where I became Auntie to dozens and dozens of dogs through the years who would look forward to their sleepovers and playtime with Django. It was like sleepaway camp, but in a loving home. I’m new to this app, but I’ve done dog-sitting since moving to California as well as other pet care and animal wellness services - energy healing, animal communication, nutrition guidance, detox education, stress management support, and a digital course on holistic health for dogs. I’m certified in Reiki for animals, integrative health coaching, and am working on pet loss grief support services. I've also produced loads of events from dog birthday parties to celebrations of life, and from art exhibits to rock concerts and cultural festivals. With animal wellness coaching and my digital course, I’ve helped dog parents get clear on dietary, lifestyle and environmental choices for their dogs to optimize wellbeing and manage stress. Happy to share wellness tips and dog food resource guides I've created for clients. I’m an animal advocate and plan to foster dogs in need through TAP, Frosted Faces, and/or other rescues while I also volunteer at SD Humane Society. My husband is retired from FDNY EMS, and his first responder emergency medicine background has proven critically important with a few dogs in our care over the years. It’s a privilege to be with and care for animals. We are downtown near Seaport Village, lovely parks, and the waterfront in a mini-oasis of a community with our own lovely patio and HOA security. We would love to connect, meet your dogs, and have an opportunity to take care of them in our home. I'm currently working from home with my small animal wellness business beyond dog-sitting, and freelancing in event planning, so I have plenty of time to take care of your precious dogs. My husband and I welcome dogs throughout the house, including on our bed. We also have comfortable dog beds. Our large outdoor patio is a bonus in downtown San Diego, and it is enclosed with an artificial grass area for dogs if they need the relief between walks. We'd provide at least three walks per day as well. I always let dogs determine the pace as many walk more slowly than I would if walking alone. I'm always paying attention when walking dogs - not staring at my phone. I'm present and protective of the pups in my care. Healthy, delicious dog treats are plentiful here, though we believe in keeping dogs at ideal weights for their health. We will follow your lead and instructions when it comes to your dogs. There will always be filtered water available for the pups. At our home, you'll often find relaxing music on, nice natural light, and lots of comfortable spots for dogs to make themselves at home both inside and on our Zen patio. We keep our home at a comfortable temperature for the pups with fresh air flowing in, and we have AC or heat when needed. Toys are plentiful, but we can remove them if you're concerned about antlers or if your dog might be a chewaholic. We have kongs and puzzle feeders, too. I always give dogs extra attention at first - even if that means giving them space - so that they can acclimate to the new environment. When my dog Django was alive, he'd mentor the newcomers and show them the ropes. With few exceptions, the dogs adjusted quickly and saw our place as home away from home. I'm good at reading dogs' body language and understanding them on many levels, which includes determining if two dogs might need space from each other. We're fortunate to live in a community that welcomes dogs of all sizes and breed mixes. If you have a dog who needs to be the solo dog staying with us, that can often be arranged. We always want to discuss the dogs' needs, behavior, temperament, routine, likes and dislikes beforehand so that we can do our best to ensure a good fit. We like to have clients complete a client survey and a medical emergency form just to be prepared in the event of such an emergency if clients were unreachable.

“Haley was really nice with my dog. She knew what she was doing. It was first time i had someone to take care of my dog and she kept me updated so i didn’t have to worry. Thank you Haley!!”

About: I have over 14 years of experience caring for dogs of different ages and energy levels. I grew up caring for my 2 dogs back in my hometown - currently one is a senior (14.5 years old) and the other is a young adult (3.5 years old). Through years of hands-on experience, I am very familiar with senior care, daily routines, and providing safe, personalized, and attentive care based on each dog’s individual needs. I recently moved to San Diego and I miss my dogs terribly, so being around your dogs will make my day! I am currently not working, so my day is theirs! I am ready to board starting 7AM on weekdays and 8AM on the weekends, but if needed I could make exceptions! I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort at all times. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, feeding instructions, and any special needs provided by the owner. I am also happy to play with them if that's what they want! I treat every dog with the same care and responsibility I would expect for my own. I make sure the environment is clean, calm, and secure, and I never leave dogs unattended in unsafe situations. I am very attentive to body language, leash safety, and home rules, and I am happy to send frequent photo and video updates so owners feel confident and at ease!

“Emily was great. We are so happy with her. She is so caring and send me pictures and gave me an updates. I would recommend her to watch your furry babies. Thank you!”

Ania A.

“Very responsive and great communication and kept me updated. I needed a sitter last min and Marc was able to help out!”

“I’m incredibly grateful to Nicole for taking such amazing care of my dog, Lincoln. She is very responsible, kind, and clearly loves animals. She has a wonderful Maltese, and Lincoln and her dog became great friends right away, which made me feel so at ease. Nicole regularly sent photos and videos, keeping me updated the entire time, I could see how happy and relaxed Lincoln was. I absolutely trust her with my dog and would leave Lincoln with her again without any hesitation. Highly, highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter! 💓”

“Our Phillip II told us that Chelsea took great care of him. He came home very happy! Most important! Thank you for taking great care of our precious son.”

“Shauna was great with Nelson for doggy daycare! She was very responsive and flexible with drop off and pick up times. Will definitely book again!”

Nate M.

“Evan and Julia were absolutely wonderful with Lily, even on very short notice. From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease. They were kind, professional, and clearly true dog lovers. They kept us updated throughout the day with photos and thoughtful notes, which we really appreciated and which made a big difference for us while we were away. Lily was happy, well cared for, and clearly had a great time — including walks, playtime, and great company. Their home setup and experience with dogs really show, and it worked out perfectly for our family. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely trust them with Lily again. Highly recommend Evan and Julia!”

Ricardo V.

“Zaira was a great sitter and provided several photos during my dogs day care with her. I would recommend her to others and plan to book with her again in the future.”
