About: I grew up on a hobby farm, where my grandmother was the local cat rescuer and my great grandmother ran a dog kennel. I finally counted and got up to 17 dogs before I lost count and am completely serious when I say I have had over 40 cats in my lifetime, sometimes over 20 at once! I still foster cats of all ages from the San Diego Humane Society regularly. I've always had a love for animals and wish I could own one now. Nothing would bring me more joy than getting to spend time with animals every day. I have a very flexible schedule, and am excited to accommodate any of your pet care needs. I currently work part-time, I have full availability Wednesday through Friday, and work roughly 5 hour shifts Saturday-Tuesday. I am extremely flexible for drop in visits, walks, and overnight stays. I am on time, follow instructions and schedules to a T, and love to send photos and texts updating you on how your pet is doing while you're away. I'm comfortable and confident in handling emergencies and anything that comes my way!
About: I’ve always been a dog person and have cared for dogs most of my life. I had a Boxer named Pantera, along with her mom and brother, Hercules, and now I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Diego. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering medications when needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. What sets me apart is that I truly treat every pet like family. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, affection, and care, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine since I’m available on weekends and during weekday evenings. I love spending time with them, whether that’s going on walks, playing, feeding, or simply keeping them company. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets because I feel the same way about my own puppy. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I will take the time to learn your dogs schedule and routine that you already have in place for them. My goal is to make their time away from you as stress free as possible, whether that’s in my home or yours (whichever you prefer). I also like to send updates and photos so you can see how your pet is doing and have peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I have 2 years of experience working at a dog/cat daycare and boarding facility. There I administered feeding and medications to cats and dogs according to owner instructions. I provided enrichment activities, walked dogs on leash to and from kennels and in yards some with barrier reactivity and leash reactivity. I have experience with off-leash dog play, recognizing dog body language and behavior, and providing redirections and intervening when needed. Other than my time there, I have owned both dogs and cats. I currently have a 2 year old pit-bull/staffy mix named Leia and have owned pit-bulls my whole life. I plan on someday becoming a veterinary technician and helping animals in any way I can. I have a pet CPR/first aid certificate and will treat your pet as my own. I just moved to California from Virginia to be with my husband who is stationed here in the Navy, so I am currently in between jobs. My schedule is wide open and I would love to help in any way I can. I cannot currently offer in home services, but I will happily come by and do drop-in visits with your pet and may be open to pet sitting in the future. I am offering dog walking services and I have access to a dog park that I can utilize as well. I have experience bathing dogs and clipping nails and am open to do that for an additional fee. I will provide undivided attention and top of the line care for your fur baby! I have experience feeding and administering medications, recognizing dog and cat body language, walking dogs, and providing off-leash play and enrichment.
“Tyler was incredible with our active, anxious pup, Penny! He was so patient with her and even helped with leash training along the way. We really appreciated the daily updates and photos. He was quick to respond, easy to communicate with, and even added an extra day when we extended our trip. Total peace of mind and such a great experience… we’d absolutely book with him again!”

“Kiera is wonderfully responsive, professional, and so so sweet to our four-legged child. She helped us out so much by walking our Doberman 5 days a week for 10 weeks straight without fail! THANK YOU KIERA! If I could tip you a million dollars I would!”

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 cared for dogs in both my home and clients’ homes, offering drop-in visits and regular walks. Though I’m still building experience in puppy training, I approach every dog with patience, consistency, and genuine love for their well-being. I am available 6 days a week from 10/11am to 9/10pm, depending on my schedule changes. I am a part time college student but I am very free and open. Pets are only allowed on the patio when I’m outside with them, ensuring their safety at all times. During walks, I prioritize safety by keeping dogs securely leashed, avoiding high-traffic areas, and staying alert to their surroundings. I’m diligent about following each owner’s rules and routines to provide consistent, reliable care and peace of mind.
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.

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.
“Fulati was the best! I had an unexpected trip and Fulati went out of his way to make the meet and greet with Aeriel. My pup instantly went up to him, tail wagging, and wanted to play. Don’t get me wrong Aeriel loves people but she was just excited to see him like he was an old friend. He asked me questions that I didn’t even think to mention and he was understanding and cautious on walks since Aeriel doesn’t get along with other dogs. Fulati did everything I asked and more. He walked her with care, played with her with love, and made sure she was comfortable before leaving. I had left a blanket for her to lay on in the bed and he would send pictures of her resting and napping after their long walks. I will definitely be using him again for when I need someone to take care of my fur child!”

About: My friends, neighbors are believing me to help them take care of their pets. I think all people are kind on their pets. I live pets! I am working pastime job, I have a lot of time with our pets. I like play with them and they will love me also. I have more flexible time for you to choose, I hope you feel good on my help and believe me to do next time. Be lovely
About: Hi everyone! My name is Kim and I have over 5 year of experience taking care of dogs and have had my cat for over 2 years + 3 dogs. 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.

“We appreciate Jacob! He has been a very dependable dog walker. He follows directions and really cares about his clients. Our dog Ollie, loves his outings with Jacob. He is a high energy dog and comes back from his runs so happy and satisfied. Jacob is truly a 5 star dog walker!”

About: Hi!! I’ve had dogs since I was 2 years old and was the main caretaker growing up for our large and small dogs. I have had 2 dogs as an adult and am familiar with rescues that are more sensitive along with high energy breeds! :) I’m here for check ins or walks while your furry babe is at home and needing some TLC!❤️ I work from home so I’m able to step away for a walk or check in as needed without a problem! I tend to my fur kids throughout the day easily so helping out some fellow fur owners would be awesome! I am happy to care for your pet in my home if they get along with other dogs and are ok around cats! Prefer crate trained if possible but likely will be out of crate most the time. I work from home and would only leave them to exercise.
The median cost per walk for dog walking in Kearny Mesa is $23

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.

Miranda has been absolutely amazing with my young Australian Shepherd, who has LOTS of energy. She’s incredibly patient, consistent, and really understands how to work with him in a way that keeps him calm and engaged. She’s also been such a huge help with short notice requests and a flexible schedule, which I truly appreciate. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. Highly recommend!

I’m so grateful for Hazel! My dog has terrible anxiety and was unwilling to get out of the crate. She did everything she could to make him feel comfortable, was willing to come back to work with both of us to build trust, and has been immensely patient and communicative.
