Cat Sitting in Encinitas

“Tori is amazing. She sends lovely updates with a lot of photos and is super communicative! Ziggy seems disappointed when he sees me and not Tori 😹”

“Monique was so caring and attentive with our guy! She was super communicative throughout our long vacation over the holidays and went above and beyond to help out with a few litter and food issues. Especially appreciative of her time during Christmas and New Year’s. We loved the pics and stories she’d send us about her visits - would definitely recommend her and look forward to having Monique back in the future!”

“Emily was a pleasure to work with. She gave a lot of love to our cat and followed directions perfectly. Her demeanor and professionalism made me feel comfortable with her in our home. I would definitely use her again.”

Elisabeth K.

“Amy did a wonderful job taking care of our cat Kiki! She did an excellent job communicating about her visits and Kiki was doing great when we arrived home.”

“This was our second time having Isabella drop in to take care of our cat. She’s super easy to communicate with, takes good care of our guy, and our shy kitty seems very comfortable with her.”

About: I grew up with three dogs in the house! They were my wonderful furry siblings for 18 years and taught me how to care for them at all stages of their lives. I am comfortable caring for puppies and senior dogs. I have been pet sitting off and on since childhood for a variety of animals including cats, fish, rodents, reptiles, chickens, goats and a pig! Any additional pets won’t scare me off! If you would like some basic training or training up-keep, I am happy to do so. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I currently work at a day job and can only offer Fridays and Saturday mornings for walks and drop-ins. I would love to open up my availability to include more days of the week if I can schedule enough pets to support myself on those days. In my home, we have a large, fenced property where your dog would get to spend a fun day outdoors with supervision. The yard is a mix of dirt and grass with plenty of shaded area for rest. If I come to your property, I will follow set rules and schedules. I can clean up after your pet, make sure they have water and food, and administer medication if needed. My walks are typically 15-20 minutes and drop ins are 30-45 minutes.

“Kimberly stayed at our house with our cat for 5 days and was AMAZING! Very responsive, we got tons of pictures, and our cat loved her so much that she has been sleeping in the guest bedroom where Kimberly stayed instead of her usual spots, haha. Will definitely have Kimberly cat sit again for us. Thank you, Kimberly!”

“This was our first time having Marie stay with our cats. My boy cat is very shy and challenging and she had so much patience. She put so much effort into trying to reassure him. They have a somewhat complex feeding schedule and she managed it perfectly. She sent me frequent updates which made me more comfortable. First time leaving them in a long time so I was nervous.”

About: I’m not for everyone, but if you want your pet companion to get the best care available, I might be for you! I grew up caring both for cats and dogs, and have developed a deep love and appreciation for all our furry (and scaly) friends. I create a loving, nurturing environment where each animal can be themself, and communicate what they need. Gentle play and long walks come standard and trips to the dog park are always a possibility. I am experienced administering oral medication to small dogs and can provide special care for the pet that needs a little extra attention. If you’re looking for someone who won’t hesitate to go the extra mile and puts the needs of your furry companion first, then i’m the one for you! Looking to take my practice full-time, and currently accepting new clients. Maybe you’re a busy health care professional, public speaker or sales rep who travels a lot for work. Maybe long days at the office don’t allow you to give your animal the care and attention you’d like to. I can be that other trusted adult, your dedicated pet nanny. For new clients, I require an introductory house visit at least two days before the sit, so I can acclimate to your furbabies in their natural environment, with you present.

About: I grew up with both a dog and a cat, and over the years I’ve cared for many pets belonging to friends and family. I’m especially fascinated by dog behavior and have a knack for building strong, trusting connections with pups of all kinds. I’m available for house sitting on the weekends, Friday or Monday can be negotiated ahead of time. During weekdays, I’m available for walks and drop-in visits mostly in the afternoon. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, I always aim to create a safe, calm, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special needs—so they feel as comfortable and happy as possible. I also make sure to keep things clean, respect the home, and send updates and photos so you can see how your furry friend is doing!

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. When I was just 10 years old, I started my own little dog walking business in the neighborhood—and I’ve been caring for animals ever since. Over the years, I’ve taken care of so many pets for friends, family, and neighbors (I have multiple references if you ever want them!). People know they can count on me because I’m responsible, kind, and I really connect with animals. I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have two 100-pound pups—a Golden Doodle and a German Shepherd mix. One of them is aggressive, so I’m confident handling dogs with all kinds of personalities, including those who are reactive or need extra patience. I genuinely understand dog behavior and always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I’m also a college student majoring in psychology and work part-time, so I’ve learned how to manage my time, stay calm under pressure, and pay close attention to details. Animals bring me so much happiness, and if you choose me to care for your pet, I’ll treat them like family—because that’s exactly what they are to me * As of August 20th I’m currently at SDSU and live near campus during the school year, but I’m available for dog walks every Friday through Sunday and also during school breaks when I’m back in town :) * I work part-time and I’m also a college student, but I always make time for what matters—especially when it comes to caring for animals. My schedule is flexible, and I’m usually available mornings, evenings, and weekends. I take every booking seriously and pride myself on being extremely responsible and reliable. If I say I’m going to be there, I will be—on time and fully present. You can trust that your pet will always get the attention, care, and love they deserve when they’re with me. I take the time to get to know each pet and follow your instructions carefully—whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or medications. I’m very responsible and always make sure doors are locked, gates are secure, and your pet is safe and happy while you’re away. I know how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and care for your pet, and I don’t take that lightly. I’ll treat your space with respect and your pet like family.

“Allison did a perfect job taking care of our two needy cats. One requires an inhaler dose twice/day and his brother wants constant attention. So, it's a big job taking care of them. She also managed the daily household tasks and kept my many outdoor potted plants watered. We also appreciated the daily text messages and photos. She deserves a superior rating!”

About: I've owned multiple breeds of dogs from overly energetic Jack Russels, to water-loving Huskies, to lap cuddling Maltese. I am excellent with dogs and would love to spend time with your fur baby. My specialty is tiring out active medium to large breed dogs, however I'm happy to tone it down to a stroll for your elderly or pocket-sized pup. Positive affirmations and personalized attention are a given as well! I am also a big gardener and am able to water and maintain your garden/indoor plants while you’re away as well. I have experience with caring for disabled dogs and for managing aggressive behaviors in dogs as well. I have full open availability for walks, dog park play sessions, hikes, beach outings and overnight stays. My dog can tag along or stay home depending on your preferences. I will treat your dog with as much care and love as I do my own girl, Chloe. It is a scary and daunting process to find and trust a pet sitter which I understand first-hand. I can assure you I am obsessed with dogs and would be honored to spend time with your fur babies.

I am extremely dependable, and will Always show up to each job on time . I can provide your dogs with the best care possible while you are gone. I would love the opportunity to meet and care for your babies. I will always make sure to treat your animals just as I would treat my very own. I am currently in school for my MBA (online) and working with horses part-time so I will have lots of time to care for your animals! I live in a very walkable neighborhood close to great walking trails! I am more than happy to accommodate any special requests for specific care instructions in your home.

“Gracie does regular drops in for my fur baby and is always on time and leaves great summaries of their visits! She’s been professional, flexible, and reliable. Highly recommend! 💛”

About: This is a new profile in this app, and my rates are lower because I want to get more customers and reviews :) I grew up surrounded by loving animals — five dogs, two cats, horses, and bunnies were all part of my daily life. Pet care isn’t just a job for me; it’s second nature. I’ve developed a calm, confident energy that animals trust, and I treat every pet like family. Whether it's giving extra patience to puppies, gentle attention to seniors, or understanding each pet’s unique personality, I bring lifelong experience and genuine love to every visit. I am usually free after 5pm during weekdays, Friday's, Saturday's and Sunday's usually free most of the day and I love going to the dog beach if the owners allow it :) Pet care is my passion and love, helping other people with my skills is my life purpose. I care about my client's pets very much. I do my best to follow their instructions and listen to their needs. I am attentive to detail and very kind to animals. I love to make them happy and have a good time with them.

“Alyssa was great with our cat! He requires twice-daily medication and she was able to handle his needs no problem. We also got regular updates and Alyssa was very responsive and easy to reach. We really appreciate it!”

“Leslie was fantastic, and took great care of my 16-year-old kitty. She was extremely reliable, and was a great communicator, providing updates and photos of her time with my fur baby. I will definitely be using Leslie again :)”
