About: I am always used to being around animals! Back in my hometown i live on a ranch with many farm animals. Animals like goats, chickens, horses, cats, and yes.. dogs! Graduated from SDSU back in 2023 & I am currently working part-time. I do also work for a cheer and dance company on the side i have a pet friendly apartment and there is a group of dog parents that gather and meet up for play dates. we do have a fenced area/ dog park for potty breaks/ walks. Keeping a clean and hygienic environment is always important when caring for a dog! Engaging and loving them unconditionally is also included, of course!

About: I’ve had pets my entire life, including both dogs of all sizes and cats, and have always had a strong love for animals. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I’ll treat your pets like family while making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to work pet sitting and boarding into my daily routine while making sure each pet receives the care, playtime, walks, and companionship they need. I’m happy to work with each pet’s individual routine and schedule. I live in a comfortable apartment with access to two fenced-in dog parks downstairs, as well as plenty of nearby walking areas for daily exercise and fresh air. My roommate and I have 2 friendly fur babies to keep your baby company. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and individual needs, and I’m happy to follow their usual routines and care instructions.
About: Hi everyone! My name is Kim and I have over 7 years of experience taking care of dogs and have had my cat for over 2 years + 3 dogs (sadly from a former relationship) . These experiences have taught me how to properly take care of these special animals and I will do my absolute best to accommodate any of their needs. I started volunteering dog sitting for my friends and I never realized I would even like it this much but I really do. They are so much fun. I would often take them to dog beach and to dog parks. Drive them around so that they could enjoy the fresh breeze in their face while the windows are rolled down. They always look so happy and excited, which brings a smile to my face. Past breeds I have taken care of are; shih Tzu’s, Yorkies, Maltese mix, and a Goldendoodle ❤️ But I’m open to sitting any breed and any size. I have a very flexible schedule. I may tend to a few social events if I go out but I’m never gone more than 3-4 hours at a time. I follow the pet owner’s instruction when it comes to caring their pet(s). I’m very affectionate and love cuddling. I’ll respect your pet’s boundaries if they’re not into this and will 100% put my all into giving them my care, time and attention.
“Our doggie seemed to be immediate friends with Madeira. She was good at coaxing a stubborn dog to get out on her walk! Communication was always there when she couldn’t make it exactly on time.”

“Frances was able to squeeze us in last minute and also do a meet and greet to make sure out pups felt comfortable. She took great care of our pups and we’d definitely hire her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of my dog, Kono, for 15 years and developed a bond that means the world to me! I have extensive experience caring for pets of all ages and personalities, from playful puppies to senior companions. Growing up, I cared for a variety of animals, including dogs, cats, and small critters, and I’ve continued to provide loving care as a pet sitter for friends and family. I’m well-versed in daily routines, administering medications, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. What makes me stand out is my commitment to treating each pet as if they were my own. I take the time to understand their unique needs, preferences, and quirks to provide personalized care. My background in customer service has instilled in me patience and attention to detail—qualities I carry over into pet care. Whether it’s playing fetch with high-energy dogs, keeping senior pets comfortable, or following specific training guidelines, I go the extra mile to ensure your pet is happy and healthy. I’m also reliable, communicative, and happy to send updates, photos, and videos so you always know your pet is in good hands. It would be an honor to take care of your furry family member while you’re away—they’ll be loved, safe, and entertained! I incorporate pet care seamlessly into my day by planning my activities around their feeding, exercise, and any special care routines they may need. Whether it’s an energetic morning walk or a calming evening on the couch, caring for pets brings joy and balance to my week. Being part of their lives is not just a responsibility—it's something I truly love doing. I believe it is important to treat every pet, family, and home with respect and compassion. I value honesty and dependability, which I demonstrate with strong communication.

Whether your pup needs a long walk, lots of playtime, or just some extra attention and cuddles, I'd love the opportunity to help!

About: High-quality care for each dog’s unique needs. I ensure safe and engaging environment. Fully bonded and insure, I prioritize the safety and happiness of you and your furry- friend. Im currently in college to get my associates degree in photography (I can take cute pictures of your fur buddy) I’m looking for a job to earn some extra money and I think that there is no better way to do it than taking care of pets. I love animals, been around dogs and cats all my life and think i can accomplish a good pet-sitter job. My pet, Blondie is my mom’s certified service dog, even when i’m not the dog master, I know how to treat her special needs. I got experience doing different task on her, like potty training, medication management, grooming and food preparation.
About: I’ve been a dog & cat dad and been an uncle to many more over the years. I have lived with pets all my life. Most recently, 2 years with a Shih Tzu, Sola, and have cared for her throughout our time together. I have watched over my friend’s pets for weeks on end and enjoy the time we spend together. I love seeing the bond between people and their furry friends! I have helped raised a surprise litter of puppies, trained them, and helped them find good homes! We still keep in contact with their new loving families! I am currently working from home on a part time schedule, so my schedule is pretty open and flexible. I can accommodate to most schedules and carry my work with me. Sola has two small homes she uses as her safety zone. A crate is for when she is feeling stressed and a fuzzy home for when she wants privacy. We have an understanding to not cross her boundaries and when she enters those spaces, we give her the privacy she requests. Understanding animals boundaries is important to me, for my safety, their wellbeing, and to maintain trust, especially if I’m a stranger to them.

About: I love dogs and I am a reliable, caring, physically active, and trustworthy dog-walker and sitter. My mom adopted a pug I used to walk on Rover since the owner could sadly no longer keep him. I have been doing this on and off for the last few years depending on my schedule. My experiences include walking and caring for Pugsly, my cousin’s Mini Aussie, my coworker’s lab mix, a doodle, among others. I don’t have a dog of my own so I love walking other dogs in the neighborhood. I prefer and feel most comfortable with small to medium-sized dogs. I cannot currently board dogs but I have the availability to house-sit. I am attentive to each dog owner’s needs and preferences. I aim to provide a meaningful and positive experience for both you and your dog. I currently have availability Monday-Friday from 8 am to 8 pm and have a flexible schedule. I am also available to walk dogs on the weekends when needed. I can provide references upon request. I can take your dog out two to three times a day. I am not currently hosting dogs at home. I love to play with them and cuddle with them and am very attentive to specific needs and requests you may have. I am responsible and detail-oriented and can tailor the experience to you and your dog’s needs.

About: I have grown up taking care of dogs my whole life and have plenty of pet care experience. I welcome any size cat or dogs! I am currently full time in the hospital as a student and have plenty of time to care for pets in the evenings and anytime on the weekends. I live right next to a dog park and my apartment is pet friendly. Additionally I do not have any other pets so your companion will have their own space and not need to worry about any other animals
“Avery does a great job with my Riley. I was very nervous starting with dog walking and she has been a wonderful guide and caregiver for my little guy. Her updates are thorough and she’s a pleasure to work with!”

About: I like to stay fit and I love dogs. So I spend a lot of time outside with dogs where they naturally belong. I’ve had a dogs in my family all my life. I’ve enjoyed training puppies and establishing loving ways of communication. I own a gym and I’m constantly telling my clients “want to get your steps in? Get a dog!” I love being outside and pet care keeps me honest. You will always find me out in the Sun with a doggie. We have a fenced bbq area where we hang out during the day and soak up the sun. At least one hour of sprinting up hills or running at a park with me. As long as we have instructions we can reinforce training commands and tons of playtime.
About: Greetings, I am Ellen (and Zopa), your trusted and experienced dog sitter. Warning: Your dog will be spoilt with kisses, walks and snooggles! My husband and I grew up with dogs all our lives and have taken care of pups ranges from 2 months to 16 years old. I work from home full time so I will be home with your fur bebe during the day as well. We have a fur bebe of our own, Zopa, 9 yo gentle Lab Mix and he is both people and dog-friendly; except for unneutered male pups (sorry, we tried with a meet up, and no go with the Zopa) Zopa is not possessive with his toys; so our doggo toy box is available for your pup as well. We have a large fenced backyard overlooking a canyon; this is where Zopa normally sunbathe and nap during the day or stretch his legs in between naps, snacks and walk breaks. During hot days, air conditioning is available and usually on. (Our late bulldog used to cycle between the AC and covered backyard area in the summer 🥰) We do not discriminate against any dog breed although I require a meet-up prior to booking to ensure everything is good with Zopa, your pup, us and so that you feel more comfortable trusting your fur bebe with us. Nothing make me happier but to give your dog a comfortable stay - a home away from home with loads of love, kisses and pampering while keeping them safe so you can focus on your trip. WFH Full Time - Flexible Schedule I work from home full time. I’m flexible with your pet needs, such as feeding time, walk schedules, heat sensitivity, food allergy, etc. I’ll update you with pics and/or videos as often as you would like; usually around 3 times per day on average. (Including tagging you or your fur baby’s ig account 😊) Weekday Routine Neighborhood walks or park trips 2 times a day are Zopa’s jam; once in the AM and once in the PM. We are early risers especially on weekdays - Zopa and I usually complete our morning rituals including breffast and AM neighborhood walk by 7:30-8 AM. In the summer, early walks will commence to avoid heat and PM walk is usually a little later depending on temperature of the day. (dogs can burn their paws on hot surfaces e.g. asphalt) Our backyard access is available at all times from inside the house so the pups can choose whether to chill inside or outside. Weekend Routine I usually take Zopa for a longer walk, for a chill hike, or dog park fun times in the weekend. (Balboa park, Grape Street Park, Civita Park are some of the parks we normally frequent) Sometimes, Zopa is out shopping with me (Nordstrom sales people are his besties), or to dog-friendly restaurant / breweries around San Diego as well. We usually end the night with chill time in our backyard. Your fur baby will be like my fur baby as well with access to fully fenced backyard, a furry super chill brother, plus safe and fun home 🏠. I prefer boarding in my own home. If your fur baby has heat sensitivity (e.g. bulldogs, Samoyed, husky) we turn on our air conditioner and fans when it’s hot. Let us know what your fur Bebe’s fave things are and their routine; we can adjust accordingly.
“Hope was great, and Pickle loved her! She was on time and communicative. I felt very comfortable after meeting Hope with her being in my home while I was away at work and taking care of Pickle! I’ll definitely ask her to walk Pickle again.”

She did an amazing job watching Ace! She was reliable, caring, and made sure he was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. I felt completely at ease leaving my dog with her, and Ace seemed happy and comfortable when I picked him up. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter!
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Eddie to care for our dogs after our original sitter canceled just one week before our planned trip. From the very beginning, Eddie was kind, professional, polite, and friendly. He connected with our dogs immediately and provided excellent communication throughout our time away. He regularly sent us photos and updates, which gave us great peace of mind and allowed us to fully enjoy our trip knowing our dogs were in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Eddie again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. Thank you, Eddie, for taking such wonderful care of our dogs!
Zere is a wonderful dog walker who is prompt, courteous and definitely loves our little cinnamon. She follows our directions very well because cinnamon is diabetic and needs special attention. She truly is one of the best dog walkers we have ever hired. Cinnamon waits for her and gets so excited when she appears at the door. It is so great to see our little dog so happy to go for a walk.
Jacqueline was wonderful with my dogs! Always on time, super friendly, and easy to communicate with. My pups absolutely loved her and were always excited to see her. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog walker.
