About: I’ve been walking and caring for dogs for over 10 years, and I’d love the opportunity to care for yours! Every dog is welcome, and I’ll tailor my care to their unique personality, routine, and needs. I can make your routine my routine so your dog feels as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, runs, hikes, endless games of fetch, or simply relaxing at home, I’m happy to match their pace. If your pup has energy to burn, I’m more than happy to help them get it out. Whatever you and your dog are most comfortable with, I’ll make it happen. You’ll always receive photo updates and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing exactly how your pet is doing. My goal is to build a relationship with your dog so they’re excited to see me every time I walk through the door. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s a quick drop-in visit, a long walk, or overnight care, I make it a priority to give every pet the time and attention they deserve while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I care for every dog as if they were my own while respecting the routine you’ve established. During each visit, I’ll make sure they have fresh water, are fed according to your instructions, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and, of course, receive lots of attention and affection. I’ll also keep your home tidy, clean up after your dog, and make sure everything is secure before I leave. I’m happy to water plants, retrieve mail, or any other needs while I’m at your home. You will receive photo updates as frequent as you want. My goal is to make you and your pet feel comfortable.

“We're so lucky to have found Jessica to watch our cats over the Thanksgiving weekend, especially with our last minute booking. I can't imagine a better pet sitter. She was quick to respond to our messages, reliable, and professional. She sent detailed visit summaries every day with lots of pictures which made the time away from our babies much easier. She took time to play with them and give them treats and they seemed very content when we got home. Definitely would recommend her to anyone.”

About: Hi! I’m Karina, a 25-year-old pet lover from Encinitas. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and grew up fostering both dogs and cats, giving me experience with pets of different ages, personalities, and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, patient, and will treat your pets like they’re my own while you’re away. I currently work part-time as an art teacher and caregiver, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet sitting.

“Cindy’s love for animals was apparent during our meet and greet. Bella LOVED her and immediately asked for pets and belly rubs as soon as she walked in the door! Cindy was very conscientious about asking questions about Bella’s care, she was very reliable and showed up twice a day on time and sent the most ADORABLE pics of Bella playing and having fun. My cat means a lot to me and I don’t like to leave her, and Cindy put my mind at ease that she was given proper attention in my absence. I recommend Cindy to anyone needing quality pet care!”

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was 5. I grew up with Goldens, German Shephards and Labs mostly. I had a pug of my own as well as a black lab. I have 4 siblings and they all have 1-2 dogs and we all laugh that we treat them like humans ie: sometimes they eat better than us! (wink wink). More recently, I lived in a place that wouldn't allow dogs so I would get my dog fix going on my daily walks especially in Encinitas where they are everywhere. But I thought getting into dog sitting/walking would allow me to be around them even more. They are good for the soul. I work remotely and have a very flexible schedule. So I can be available for last minute things that may come up and I'm am able to be at the house/do walks often if needed. I walk about 2 hours a day as it is so it would be in even better addition to my routine to have a dog with me! I am unable to have pets in my home at the moment although that is going to change in the next few months. As far as coming to your home, I am very respectful, reliable and will treat your dog like it's my own.

About: Hi! I’ve been around animals my whole life—growing up with both cats and dogs taught me early how to care for pets with love and patience. Over the years, I’ve been the go-to sitter for my friends whenever they go out of town, whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just making sure their pets feel comfortable and cared for. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, and I always do my best to match their energy and routines. Whether your furry friend is energetic and playful or more laid-back and shy, I’ve got them covered! I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’m available for regular walks, drop-ins, or extended care depending on your pet’s needs. I keep my availability up to date and do my best to be reliable and consistent, so you can count on me to stick to your pet’s routine. I’m also happy to coordinate a schedule that works best for you. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with respect and follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines and walk preferences to any special needs or behaviors. I take extra care to ensure doors, gates, and crates are always secure, and I never leave pets unattended longer than agreed. I stay attentive during walks and in the home to keep your pet safe at all times. You can expect clear communication and regular updates, so you always know how your pet is doing and can feel confident they’re in good hands.
