“Abi is a proactive communicator, provides good notes and pictures and was sweet with our shy Australian Labradoodle. I appreciate that she was open to seeing how things work in our home and preferences for leashes, crate, food etc so it’s seamless for the pup. Thrilled we found Abi!”

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.

“Brice was great with my dog and also very easy to communicate with and responsive. Brice was reliable and always on time for the drop ins. My lab is pretty rambunctious, and Brice was very accommodating of his energetic temperament. I got at least 3-5 photos and videos of every potty break/walk and could tell my pup was very happy with his new walker. I would definitely use Brice again and highly recommend to others!”

About: Hi! I’m a part-time nurse and a new Rottweiler puppy mom. Life at the hospital can be intense, so spending time with dogs is my way of taking a much needed mental health break. I genuinely love caring for pups, big or small and I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your dog. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own. I work part-time as a nurse, which gives me plenty of time during the week to focus on pet care. Walking dogs and doing drop-in visits is something I genuinely enjoy, it’s a great way for me to reset, and spend time with animals. I focus on keeping pets comfortable and safe by sticking to their usual routines. On walks, I make sure they get plenty of exercise and breaks. During visits, I provide playtime, and lots of attention to help them feel happy!

About: I have taken care of every dog in the neighborhood and my own dog since I was a young teenager. Walking them and giving them love while their owner was away I am home for the summer and would love to take care of your dog while you are gone. My schedule is flexible during week days and most on weekends. I will gives the pets my full undivided attention because they deserved to be treated amazing. Looking after them, playing with them, feeding them all of it.

About: I have always been surrounded by dogs my whole life. I have 3 back home at my parents house and want to find some furry friends in north county to help care for when you aren’t around. I am walk about 5+ miles a day and would love to take your dog for a long walk if they are willing and able. I’m currently working a full remote job with a lot of flexibility. I am able to work on weekends when you are wanting a weekend away. I have a yard infront of my apartment that your dog can safely do its business on. Happy to take your dog to the beach or dog park!

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!

“This was our second time having Marie care for our two cats. She is very responsible and always gives feedback and pics on her visits. She follows instructions on feeding and supplements which is important to me.”

“Beckie is always flexible and punctual and my cat is always well taken care of while I'm away. I try and rebook with Beckie when I know I'm leaving town because she's done a great job every time I've booked Beckie to take care of my kitty.”

About: I have been always been the go to pet sitter for family and friends! I love being with animals and spending time with them!!! Love It fits in my schedule based off whenever I am available to help out. But i’m usually always ready to give attention and cuddles to them. I take care of them like they want to be. I always make sure they are focused on and taken care of at all times

About: I’m very active and love playing/taking care of all kinds of dogs. I’ve taken care of many friends dogs over the years mainly when they are gone for vacations in the summer. Moments taking care of dogs really make my whole summer and is a really enjoyable time for me. I am currently a student, going into CSUSM in the fall. I work part time, but am really active outside of school, so pet care would really fit in with my schedule with the amount of free time I have for activities and work. I have house sat with pets and taken care of pets numerous times. When doing so, I always check to make sure they have food and water in their bowls while I let them out to use the restroom. I also try to read any body language or how they are acting if I’m getting back for any duration of time to make sure they are either happy or comfortable. If I assume something is wrong or they did something I’ll check either the house or anything they may have done/gotten into that they shouldn’t have. Their health and mood is my number 1 priority to ensure they are well taken care of and healthy at all times under my care.

“Our dogs loved and felt so comfortable with Jamie!”

Amy H.

“Jaimie has been dropping in and helping us care for our new puppy on our work days, and she’s been the greatest help! She has been extremely communicative and has helped relieve a ton of stress during this puppy phase! Banyan is always happy when we come home after a visit and care with Jaimie. We look forward to continuing care with her!”

Marisa B.

“I’ve booked with Allison four times now and she has been fantastic each time! She has been detail oriented to make sure my cat was well taken care of while I was away so I had no worries. She will continue to be my first choice for drop in visits while I’m out of town. Highly recommended!”

About: Living close to the beach, I embrace an active lifestyle filled with tennis, running, and yoga. Your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise and fresh air, whether it's a fun run in the park, a relaxing stroll along the shoreline or a chill sunny nap. My boyfriend and I both grew up with dogs, and we miss having them around. Since we don't have one of our own, taking care of your furry friend is something we really look forward to.

We have extensive experience caring for dogs, from the smallest Bichon to the grandest Great Dane.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or special requests. We can't wait to meet your four-legged family member! Both of us work from home, and have a very flexible schedule that allows us to integrate pet care seamlessly into my day. We can provide multiple walks, play sessions, and attention throughout the day without the constraints of a typical 9-to-5 job. This means your pet won't be left alone for long periods and will always have someone around to care for them. In my home, I ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your pet. I have designated areas for play, rest, and feeding, and I keep a close eye on them to ensure they're happy and healthy.

I make sure they have fresh water, regular meals, and plenty of playtime. I also provide updates with photos and messages, so you always know how your pet is doing.

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.

“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! 💛”
