About: While I’ve mostly only had the privilege of working with senior dogs, I love playtime and energetic dogs as well! I’m patient and attentive and I have a flexible schedule where I'm home most of the day, so I can ensure your pet is comfortable, well-exercised, and engaged in a way that respects their age and energy levels. I work from home, so let me know what schedule your pet is used to and I can work around that. After work hours I am usually out and about for a few hours (3-4) doing hobbies. I can regularly check in with you with updates on your home and pet when you need. Just let me know ahead of time what cadence you would like checkins to happen!
“We are so happy we had Frances as our dog-sitter for our dog Layla! As it was our first time leaving Layla, buf Frances did an amazing job helping us feel comfortable and at ease through her frequent updates she would send. By the time we came home, it was obvious Layla had made a new friend :). We would absolutely recommend Frances to be your dog-sitter!”
“Alina did a fantastic job taking care of our very lively Welsh Terrier puppy, Zoey. Even though we weren't there to give her instructions personally, she did everything we asked and more wonderfully. Zoey had a happy time, and Alina sent many great photos along the way. Highly recommended!”
“Luna was well cared for and even got to have an outing. She was happy and healthy when we returned and we are so grateful, especially with a last minute booking.”
About: Hi I have been around animals my whole life, growing up with both cats and dogs. I’ve had a dog of my own for 8 years, giving me personal experience in canine care, behavior, and training. In addition to my personal experience, I volunteer at The Animal Pad in San Diego, working hands-on with rescue dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I ensure every walk is safe, engaging, and tailored to your dog’s needs—whether it’s a leisurely stroll or an energy-burning adventure. I am currently only working remotely so have very open availability to sit and walk pets! I'm available Mid-days, evenings and weekends to house sit or walk! Am able to dog/cat sitting at your home and walk dogs! I am also able to board dogs overnight if friendly with other dogs as I have one of my own!
“Kaitie is awesome. We had a last minute trip out of town and she came over the day before to meet the dynamic duo. The dogs loved her and she was super responsive and managed two large dogs like she had known them forever. The house was immaculate when we got home too. We’ll definitely work with her again.”
About: I have a deep bond with animals and always ensure they feel comfortable around me by quickly adapting to their unique personalities. My love for pets runs deep, with years of experience caring for animals: starting from my own family’s dogs and cats when I was young to providing pet care for friends and others. Most of my experience is with dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, and birds. Personally, I have a soft spot for German Shepherds and Siamese cats. Currently, I have a leopard gecko, and a dog living with me. My Pixie is 3 years old, a female fancy gecko. And my Zay is a female husky mix, she’s turning 8 this year :3 I work part-time for events, and on rare occasions, about once every 2–3 months I may travel for work. During those times, my status will be marked as "out of town." My schedule is typically very flexible, with plenty of availability throughout the week and weekends to care for animals. At the moment, I don’t have the extra space to board another dog in my home, until further noticed, but I’m more than happy to drive to your location to take care of your furry (or scaly or feathery) family member!
“Victoria watched my sweet, anxious doggo for a quick weekend and was very wonderful! She took great care of her and gave my pup the time to warm up and met her where she was at. Definitely would use Victoria again and recommend her to anyone needing some great care/love of their pet!”
“Sofya was amazing!! My pup had some recent health issues - right before our booking was to start. She came over a day early to check out my dog and review the care instructions. She sent me updates every morning, night and every medication milestone. She sent photos and responded to every message. I’m so grateful that I was able to keep some very important family obligations and feel 100% confident my dog was well cared for. Above and beyond. Can’t say enough!”
“Rebecca was so thorough in preparation of helping care for our pups while we were away. Helped us to feel confident during her care and stay with them. She sent updates and pictures which helped the communication stay consistent and open, which was nice too! Grateful for her services!!”
“Sarah is such a sweetheart! My kitty Sasha is usually very nervous without me, but she took to Sarah so fast. They were playing together on day 2! I appreciate Sarah’s thoughtful care and am grateful to have solid pet care in San Diego.”
“Jessica was absolutely lovely and our pupper had a great time with him! He got out and about and was well cared for the whole time, definitely a great sitter!”
“Jarrod was wonderfull to our pets when he pet sitter for us when we were away. We wouldn’t definitely recommend him to others & will book him for future trips away.”
“Andrea was great! She respected our request that the doggos not be left alone repeatedly for longer than 2-4 hours because our senior needs to potty frequently. Unlike other sitter experiences, we didn't come home to poorly cleaned potty messes. If there were messes, she cleaned them well because I didn't see any. Great communication before, during, and after. Andrea took great care of our doggos and our house!”
“She was amazing!!! I was really nervous about leaving my cat for the first time. My cat can be really nervous and timid around strangers. She was so patient with her. She sent me pictures and updates the whole time I was gone. Made it easier for me to relax and enjoy my vacation. I will definitely be using jeannine again ?”
“Debby was accommodating with our last minute need and did a great job sending pictures and updates throughout the stay. Thank you for your care!”
About: Hello Rover, I have cared for a bichon growing up, his name was Louis. He was fun , loving and a sweet dog. He enjoyed meeting new dogs and people. I would enjoy taking him on walks and playing catch with him. He lived a long and full life. He passed away when he was Thirteen years old. My family was sadden of the loss and after sometime we all decided to add another member to the family. We got another bichon . His name is Charlie . He is such a sweet dog . He enjoys going on walks and playing catch and going to the local dog park. He also enjoys meeting new people and spending time with other dogs. I am looking forward becoming friends with your furry friend.
About: Hi, I’m Adam! I’ve loved animals my whole life and grew up with two dogs who taught me early on how rewarding it is to care for pets. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with animals of all ages and temperaments, from energetic kittens to senior cats and dogs needing a gentler touch. I’ve personally cared for my cat who had chronic kidney disease, so I’m confident with giving medications, managing special diets, and recognizing subtle changes in health or behavior. Whether your pet needs playtime, a slow walk, or just quiet companionship, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I treat every animal like they’re my own and genuinely enjoy building trust and connection with each one I meet. I have a very open and flexible schedule right now, which means I can easily accommodate a wide range of needs, whether it’s daytime visits, evening care, or weekend stays. I’m happy to work around your schedule to make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve. I believe a pet is most comfortable in the space they are familiar with, and to keep them comfortable I am happy to spend as much time with them as they need. Whether it's a few hours or overnight, I'm happy to cater to their needs.

Adam G.
“Adam is a truly exceptional pet caregiver. He has a natural warmth and calm energy that immediately put my cats at ease. He was incredibly gentle and attentive with my older cat, who requires daily medications and extra care, and he showed real patience with my younger, more reserved girl—who ended up warming up to him faster than expected (he even got some belly rubs). It’s clear how much he genuinely cares and how thoughtfully he approaches each pet’s unique needs. I trust him completely and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and compassionate care.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Matilda was absolutely wonderful with our babies! They were kind, reliable, and clearly cared for our pups like their own. We came back to 4 happy and well-cared-for pups—couldn’t ask for more. Highly recommend!
10/10. I have 3 very different animals with varying temperaments and felt so comfortable leaving them with Shelby. The pictures and videos put me at ease and she left my home just like she found it! I already rebooked with her for future pet sitting. If you’re nervous about leaving your fur babies, Shelby is the way to go!
Kaitie was fantastic and my dogs love her! She's super communicative - sending us lots of pictures and telling us what they did during the day.
We were fortunate to find Lilly who has been an excellent resource and caring soul to dogsit Rico, our active, while we were gone on a holiday. We appreciated all her pupdates and photos, while keeping Rico consistent on his routine to manage his separation anxiety and our stress about leaving him behind for the first time for several days. She even gave him playtime and socialization with her dog which worked out great. Thanks Lilly!
Amazing, as always, took care of everything and I could enjoy my vacation knowing that everything at home was all good.
Caroline did a great job sitting our two cats and puppy! She was easy/friendly to communicate with and flexible with scheduling. Would recommend booking with her.
Jennifer was awesome and so patient and kind. We had some last minute changes and she was so accommodating and handled everything perfectly. She communicated and sent photos and went above and beyond. We are truly grateful she stayed at our house with our pups.
Meg was absolutely fantastic! She stayed at our house for a week with our dog and 2 cats. This was our first time leaving our pets with someone and she was so great with our very nervous dog. She sent us updates and pictures which was so nice. She also left our house totally spotless, you wouldn’t have even known someone was there! We highly recommend and will be booking again!
Nancy is by far the best sitter I’ve experienced on this app! She’s so communicative, kind, sends pictures, and left my house perfectly clean. Cannot wait to use her again!!
Owen was absolutely wonderful. He was a thoughtful pet sitter and took great care of our home. We came home to happy and healthy pets.
Izayah always takes great care of my boy Roscoe and sends me plenty of updates! Roscoe is a happier dog every time I pick him up!
One of my dogs has terrible separation anxiety and she managed to work with him which that in itself is a miracle! She was super patient with them and even managed to take them on walks which is awesome. Definitely recommend!
Jonathan is excellent, respectful, and communicative. We have a very high energy dog who needs a little extra special care. Jonathan gave us peace of mind for our dog and our home!
This is Priyanka’s second time watching Olive and somehow my expectations were once again exceeded! She takes such good care of Olive, spoils her with lots of walks and playtime and sends plenty of updates and pictures. I always know she is in good hands when I am out of town! I couldn’t recommend Priyanka more!
Lisa is one of the best dog walkers/sitters that we’ve ever had! She is extremely response and accommodating to changing schedules. She went above and beyond to ensure our dog was well cared for and comfortable. We will absolutely be rebooking with her in the future! Could not recommend her enough!
Samantha watched our two dogs at our house for four nights and she was wonderful! Super friendly, responsive, thorough, and obviously great with the pups, they liked her right away. She left the house in perfect condition and our dogs were calm and happy when we returned. We'd absolutely work with Samantha again, thank you so much!
Andrea loved our pug Biscuit, was a great communicator and kept our house in tip top condition when we were out of town. Highly recommend her for house sitting, and pet care.
Crystal took good care of our Mini Schnauzer and our home. We already have her booked for our next trip and would recommend her.
Malley did great with our crew! We have a senior dog and two larger rescues who are sisters and she handled all their needs and personalities really well. She provided lots of updates and pictures and treated our home with care. We will definitely call Malley again.
Nathalie was a life saver for me, I had to go to Europe for six weeks and was terribly stressed about my two dogs who were starting behind. They’re used to my being with them all the time (I work from home) and I was anxious about how they would respond. Nathalie arranged to work from home as well and stayed with my dogs at my place. She took photographs almost on a daily basis, took them to the park every day, and occasionally even to the beach and bathed them on their return I left her with specific instruction which she followed to the letter. She even groomed me Aussie / Chow mix …. Lots of fur! I returned to two very happy babies who very obviously fell in love with her. After six weeks away I think I got jealous :-)
