About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 15 years, from my own beloved cat to helping out friends with their dogs and cats. Now that I have plenty of free time, I love having a furry companion around! I don’t treat pet sitting as just a job—I genuinely enjoy spending time with them. That’s why when boarding at my place, I only take one client at a time, so I can fully focus on your pet and make them feel at home. I live in a great spot for pets, with a big two-level balcony and a huge dog park right downstairs. If your pup loves socializing, they’ll have plenty of chances to make friends! I also love taking them out with me—whether it’s running errands downtown, strolling along the bay, exploring Balboa Park, or even heading to the beach. I'm currently a stay-at-home wife with a big heart and loads of love for pets. With plenty of free time, I absolutely enjoy having furry companions around! Pet sitting isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’m all about giving your pet my full attention, which is why I only accept one client at a time for boarding at my place. This way, I can devote all my time and energy to making your pet feel right at home. Plus, my boyfriend, who’s a registered nurse, is always around to help if anything comes up—definitely a bonus for your pet’s well-being! We live in a pet-friendly area with a big two-level balcony and a huge dog park right downstairs. If your dog loves to socialize, they’ll have plenty of opportunities to make friends! I also love taking pets on adventures—whether it's running errands downtown, strolling along the bay, or even hitting the beach. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My apartment is spacious and secure, providing a safe space for your pet to relax without worrying about them sneaking out or encountering other animals. I’m very cautious with all pets, ensuring a peaceful environment for them to feel at home. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and make sure your home is left clean and secure. I have experience with all breeds, ages, and personalities, so your pet will be in good hands. For everyone's safety, please let me know if your pet has any specific behaviors toward other animals or people, as well as any health issues or pests. I’d also appreciate it if pets are clean and fresh when they arrive.

“Lili has cared for our dogs, cats and two parrots multiple times. We always feel comfortable having her at our home and would definitely recommend her”




11. Tony M.

“Most reliable dog walker I’ve had.”


12. Nikki B.

“Nikki is amazing! She was responsive and communicated very well before, during and after the stay. She followed all instructions well, and went above and beyond to spend more time with Kodi and help him during his walk when he was a little nervous. You can tell she has a great love of animals and passion for this, and our doggy was happy and well when we returned. We would highly recommend Nikki and would gladly have her take care of Kodi again next time we needed it.”


13. Stephanie A.


“Stephanie provided great photos and updates of my dog and cat while I was away, and I definitely plan to use her in the future for upcoming trips out of town. Thanks again Stephanie for taking such good care of my babies for me :)”


14. Fares A.
“Fares takes great care of my dogs Zoe and Bentley every time he watches them, making sure they get long walks, lots of attention and stay on their schedules. I highly recommend his services as he loves all animals and takes care of them as though they are his own!”




15. Andrea S.

“Great dog walker! I would definitely use her again. Loves animals and was right on time 🤩👍🏼🤓”


16. Denniell G.
“If you’re thinking of booking with Denniell don’t think twice just do it! Denniell was the best dog sitter I could have asked for! He has watched my dog more times than I can count on two hands and I have nothing less than 10/10 experience. Denniell not only took care of my dog as if it was his own, but he also showed him the same attention, love, and affection that I would’ve as well! He constantly updated be throughout the day with pictures of my dog and videos of them playing and cuddling, constant walks throughout the day, and made my dog so happy! He even gave my dog a bath! I was scared my dog would not want to leave with me anymore after he sitted because my dog loved him so much 🤣”


17. Chelsea M.

“Chelsea was amazing with our dog, he has moderate leash reactivity which she wasn’t afraid of. She followed all instructions, set lots of photos, and our dog loved her!”


18. Erik M.
