Cat Sitting Flinn Springs

“Michaela is awesome!! She is very in tune with my dog’s behavior. She is kind and takes lots of cute pictures of my pups. And great at leaving detailed report cards.”

About: Your dogs will be able to go to the dog park and given treats for good deeds. They'll be able to play with toys and have a constant water supply. I am open to washing and grooming the dog as well if you ask. They will get all my attention. Regarding to my schedule, I go to college everyday at 2pm and I arrive home at different times each day. I am completely available during the weekends. I have had experience before of dog sitting and the owner can vouch for me that I did a great job. I walked the dog, cleaned up their business, made sure the house was tidy, I grabbed their mail when they asked, and more. Your dog will be well taken care of.

“Nate and Ray are the absolute best! I feel so much peace at work knowing that my pups are being taken care of. I have one dog with pretty bad separation anxiety and having Nate and Ray stop in has been life changing. I used to dread coming home from work and cleaning up the destruction from my dogs, but now I come home to two tired pups with no accidents in the house. Thank you so much!”

About: Hey there! I've been in raising and training dogs for a while and had a fun doing it. I’m originally from San Diego and am home for a few months after finishing my masters degree at Columbia University. While I don't have a pup of my own right now, I'm all about providing top-notch care. I absolutely love strolling around local parks, and exploring new places! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule, so I've got some wiggle room to hang out with your furry pal throughout the week and over the weekends. Can’t wait to meet your fur-baby– they'll be in pawsitively great hands! RE: PRICES- I totally get times are tough, so I'm all ears for working out prices. Being in grad school, I’m available all evenings, free each weekend and have several gaps throughout the week! I take walks daily before/after work and on the weekends and would love to have a furry companion! I live near a few parks but there are many other parks walking distance from here. In my clients home, I will be sure to respect their belongings and be sure to keep any safety hazards away from their pets.

About: I grew up with many pets and learned how to care for them exceptionally well. I understand giving them boundaries and having fun playing with them are both keys to great care. I enjoy walking and playing with dogs as I am a very active person who loves exploring as much as your dog does! When I started pet sitting about 15 years ago I found I had a gift for helping dogs and cats who have a hard time adjusting when their owners are away. I also specialize in senior care as I’m willing to do anything needed to help your dog or cat be comfortable, eat well, and feel loved. I interact with each one as the unique individual they are. Let me know all about your pet’s personality and special needs so I can be the closest thing to having you at home as possible. I’m currently in school a couple days a week and have flexible work which gives me plenty of time to play with your pups during the week and on weekends. I only care for pets at your home. I have reliable transportation and a flexible schedule to be there when needed. I can also do overnight house and pet sitting if needed.

About: Been taking care of dogs since I was a teenager. Experienced in pets, cuddles, mess clean ups, walks and giving medicine as needed! Can't wait to meet your pet! My schedule is open for helping take care of your critters! I am available throughout the day most days to provide the needed care for your cats and dogs! When caring for pets in someone else's home, it is really important to follow the standards set forth by the pet owners. Most pets have a set routine and it is important to stick with their routine while providing lots of love and attention.

About: I’ve had about 13 dogs of different breeds in my lifetime. Every dog that I’ve had in my life still carry on in my heart. I was responsible for all of my dogs and made sure to attend to their needs in a safe manner. I’m able to work any day of the week as long as it’s 8-3pm. I’m just not available around 4-6, but I am able to care for them in my home if necessary. We have a screen door and our parking lot is gated, so there is no way for them to get through. There is also a park nearby that is great for walking.

“Marla is amazing!! She quickly bonded with my two social, young cats and has taken a ton of stress away when I am traveling for work. I feel 100% sure that the kitties are doing great and being very well taken care of when Marla visits!”

About: When you want someone who does much more than the bare minimum, that’s where I come in. Pets can have a difficult time when you’re gone. They’re nervous about having someone else in the house and they miss you. Having someone there who truly cares about what your pets may need in order to have as much peace as possible until your home matters. Do they feel more comfortable with my hand coming from the side or the back when they’re pet? I’ll find out! Do they feel more comfortable with me in a certain line of site until they get to know me a bit? I’ll find out what that is! Their favorite toy? What makes them anxious? What makes them happy? I’ll find it! I bring a patient, calm and playful energy to bring as much comfort as I can. Pet care is my full time job right now! I have the availability I need so your pet isn’t lonely! It helps with bathroom needs and an overall homey environment. This is dependent on what each client and pets need. I’m versatile, and open to individual needs. I do more than take them to the bathroom and feed them. I like to make sure they feel loved and comforted and each pet has their own way that they experience that.

“Mariela is very patient! My dog has anxiety and is uneasy with new people, but Mariela was very understanding of his feelings and took things slow! She went above and beyond by doing a meet and greet not just once but TWICE before actually checking on him. This was the first time I’ve hired a sitter, so I was hesitant. She sent me multiple pictures throughout their in-house visit and their walk. Mariela made me feel comfortable and took my dog’s behaviors into account with every move! I am so appreciative of her!!”

About: I've had pets my whole life, and I've always been considered the animal whisperer of my family. I've owned and cared for cats, dogs, birds (parakeets + cockatiels), freshwater fish, toads, ferrets, and event rats! I'm very in tune and informed on common health issues or changes in behavior that may indicate health problems I just recently moved to the El Cajon area and would love to care for your pets :) My availability is currently fully open! Feel free to message me with any concerns or questions! I'm currently job searching since I'm new to California, so my schedule is very open/flexible to any odd times you may need. I'm comfortable with adapting to however you would prefer your pets are looked after and cared for. I'm also happy to help accommodate any current training you may be implementing to help the process. Rest assured your pet will be cared for as if they were my own.

About: I grew up with so many animals around me! My mom has 3 cats and 2 dogs, and my dad has the opposite, 3 dogs and two cats. For a semester at college, I volunteered at a small cat adoption area where I would clean, play, and process cat adoptions. I also volunteer at an SPCA where I walk dogs, and clean dishes and laundry! I love love animals and learning their personalities, and have never lived without them. Even in college, my roommate had a service dog! I am on break from school, so I am available anytime within my break timeframe! I'm perfectly comfortable with quick check-ins, walks, and overnight stays! With good communication, I can ensure walks are safe by knowing your dogs' typical behavior and reactions to people, cars, other animals, or anything else. I would love to foster a good relationship with your animal and build trust so I can read their mood and behaviors efficiently!

“Kaitlyn was amazing with my cats while I was out of town! She went over and above and was communicative with me while I was gone. I’d recommend her to anyone! I’ll definitely be using her in the future.”

“Baylee was absolutely fantastic with my two cats and dog and she went above and beyond in every way possible. What impressed me most was her proactive communication. She checked in frequently throughout my time away and sent the cutest photos of my pets looking happy, well-fed, and content. I never had to ask for updates; she just knew how much it would mean to me as a pet parent to see that they were thriving. She genuinely spent quality time playing with them and giving them the attention they needed. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet sitting services. Thank you, Baylee, for taking such wonderful care of my babies!”

About: I've had pets all my life. I also have extensive experience working in emergency animal hospitals, and at the San Diego Humane Society in the humane law dept. This girl has all the love, skills, and knowledge to take care of your fur or scale babies. I recently lost my beloved senior dog, and would love to take care of a family member/ pet to give love and care to other pets. Currently and unfortunately, I now only have a sweet fat little hamster so my availability has opened up. I love all animals so any type you have I'd be happy to help.

About: Not certified but love to dog train and walk pets I have had my own 3/4 dogs many different breeds! I love play and have connection with the dogs and cats! I have pet sat before I’m not working curently, I’m in school full time but have two young kids looking for extra money to live and have a little fun with my kids! I am very cautious and very respectful of others homes and animals. I have my own pets, I only take care of animals with love and respect!

About: I have been taking care of animals from small critters all the way to larger animals like horses for over 20 years. I am reliable and highly responsive. I will send photo updates, and make sure your pets are happy and well taken care of. I work part time outside of pet sitting and have a flexible schedule. This allows me to make sure your animals have the attention they need. I am able to care for your fur babies at your place, so they feel comfortable. This also minimizes stress instead of staying in a new environment

“Loren was so great and helpful while we were traveling! She was responsive the entire time we were gone and she gave our kitty the meds she needs every day. She gave them treats and looked after them with lots of care, we will absolutely contact her again should the need arise :)”

About: I've grown up with cats since I was 8 and began petsitting for people in my 1st couple years of college around 2015. I've done both dogsitting and catsitting for people and I love both animals equally! I have petsat for people with animals of all ages, with the youngest dog I have watched being about 8-10 months and the oldest being about 14 or 15. I love exploring new places and being outdoors especially since I live in one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. with the best weather! I find it equally enjoyable to see a dog smile and to see him/her bring joy to their owner and to people around them. I love to see how dogs can bring people together and get people to connect who would otherwise likely never talk to each other. I genuinely enjoy helping others and caring for pets really is its own kind of therapy! I will always clean up after pets even if its raining or if the dog wants to rush off and I have to step on the leash to keep him/her from taking off. I live by the golden rule and will do what I can to hold people accountable for pets that aren't being taken care of and/or cleaned up after. I'm currently working part time at San Diego Community College district as an Educational Coach with a students who are special needs or neurodivergent student population. I work about 17-19 hours a week for that job and am typically away from the home for 5 hours a day or less on Mon-Thurs depending on the day and number of students I'm meeting with. Some administrative tasks for my school job can be done remotely. I want to do more dog-walking and housesitting because it motivates me to stay active and foster connections with animals that my current living situation doesn't allow for. I also love hearing people's pet rescue stories and funny stories because each pet has its own personality and leaves pawprints on others hearts and lives! I love spending time with pets by throwing them their favorite toy and cuddling with them on the couch or bed. I also care for them by taking them for walks or finding the perfect new toy from an old volleyball, piece of rope, or other seemingly random objects that pets decide to take a liking to. Its interesting to see what they choose and of course there are limits there of things that should not be considered due to being hazardous due to being a choking hazard, but I'm all about finding new ways for them to have fun. I will feed them as often as you need and I have also given a dog its pills disguised in peanut butter or in its kibble a few times. If your animal is only allowed in parts of the house or yard I will keep the pens up and only allow it out as directed. I will provide them water as well as with treats or dental chews as preferred. I will take dogs out to use the bathroom as often as I am able, typically once every couple hours while I'm home and once every few hours if I'm going out. Feel free to reach out via text to clarify this, especially if your pet has specific needs or needs to be taken out more frequently to use the restroom.
