Pet Sitting La Jolla Amago

About: Growing up, my environment was filled with dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds early on. I have cared for everything from small, high-energy breeds like Chihuahuas and Yorkies to larger and stronger breeds like Rottweilers and Pit Bulls. This exposure taught me how to adapt to the unique needs of each dog, including their routines, feeding habits, personality quirks, and behaviors. My ability to connect with dogs of all sizes and temperaments ensures they feel secure and cared for under my supervision. Overall, I have six years of experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and temperaments, making knowledge, communication, and observation key skills of mine! These skills have been used to care for all dogs, whether it be seniors, new borns, or behavior-challenged dogs. Don't hesitate to reach out, I am always willing and able to assist in any situation! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine; my flexible schedule allows me to prioritize the needs of the pets in my care. As a high school graduate, I have learned to manage my time efficiently, ensuring I provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. As a college student, I am able to schedule coursework around those in my care, giving each pet the structure they deserve while staying on top of my responsibilities. My ability to balance these tasks ensures that pets always feel cared for, even during busy periods. In addition, having free weekends allows me to dedicate more time to those in my care; I use this time for grooming, mental stimulation, or fun activities depending on the dogs' needs and abilities. My focus on time management ensures that each pup is always prioritized, with plenty of quality time and attention incorporated into their routine. Overall, my goal is to provide a calm, nurturing, and healthy environment. I can ensure that pet care is prioritized in my routine, allowing me to meet the needs of every dog I meet. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home, revolves around creating a safe, healthy, and comfortable environment that fosters trust, respect, and well-being. Safety is my top priority; this includes securing the living space to prevent accidents, deep cleaning after every stay, and ensuring pets have access to fresh water and appropriate food for their dietary needs. In terms of health, I carefully monitor their behavior to identify any signs of distress or illness and address them promptly. For outdoor activities, I use secure leashes or harnesses, supervise them, and monitor them while off leash closely. Building trust with animals is essential to providing effective care. I take time to understand their unique personalities, preferences, and routines. By approaching them gently, respecting their boundaries, and offering positive reinforcement, I create a sense of security and reliability. Whether it’s maintaining consistency in feeding schedules, potty breaks, and spending quality time/playing, I strive to create a comfortable and enjoyable environment for each dog I meet. I can ensure they feel valued and cared for. Overall, the environment I provide is clean, stimulating, and adapted to their specific needs. I offer comfortable resting areas, engaging toys, and plenty of space to explore. I respect established routines and follow your care instructions precisely, maintaining a seamless transition for your pet. My approach combines attentiveness, compassion, responsibility, and professionalism to ensure every pet thrives under my care.

About: I am extroverted and creative, and I have an affinity for people having unique inspirations and passions. I really love animals, but sadly, have none to call my own! I would love to be around them more, and offer my help and care to the community who may need it. I have been inconsistently house sitting and dog walking for years now, but I am now hoping to do it more often! I have a lack of reviews, but it’s not for lack of experience :) I am laid back and I have a very flexible schedule! My availability is almost entirely open. Let me know if you need care last minute! I enjoy giving them outdoor time, so they can run around, and let out all their excitement and energy. I also love giving them little treats, when they are allowed!

About: I’ve spent the last 8 years working for a prominent national pet supplies retailer and as such come equipped with a wealth of professional pet care knowledge (and of course love!) for animals of all types! I work full-time on a hybrid schedule (in office Tuesdays through Thursdays). I work from home on Mondays and Fridays and as such have the best availability on those days and weekend days. However I am open to staying in homes throughout the week and have the option to bring pets with me to the office if that’s something that interests you and works best for everyone involved. I work best with detailed care instructions but I have cared for all types of animals and am able to problem solve or figure out what’s needed in any circumstance when instructions are not provided or needed. I make the firm commitment to love your pet as if they were my own and provide that same level of care!

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own. I have two cats and have cared for my boyfriend's two cats for about a year, as well as a friend's cat for another year. I am also comfortable caring for dogs and enjoy spending time with pets of different personalities and energy levels. I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting at the clients home. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, or simply having someone keep them company, I will make sure they receive the care and attention they need while you are away. I know every pet has a different routine, and I am very detail oriented, so I will always take the time to follow your instructions and help them feel safe and comfortable. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can spend quality time with your pets. My goal is to treat every pet like they are my own and provide reliable, loving care. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely pets! I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I can work around your pet's normal routine to make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I've always loved animals and know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them. I take the time to learn each pet's routine and personality so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I have two cats, a bearded dragon, and a frog, so caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, keep your home clean and respected, and send plenty of updates and photos so you know they're happy and doing well.

About: I have been caring for animals my entire life, and I have 10 years of professional pet care experience. I can care for dogs, cats, horses, reptiles, chickens, and rodents. I enjoy walking, watching, feeding and just generally caring for all animals. Anytime on weekends. I am also available during the day all week except for Tuesday. I take care of animals on a farm and that is taken care of at dawn and dusk. I come with plenty of poop bags, water, and healthy dog treats. I follow instructions to the letter and I make the safety of animals my priority.

About: I welcome any animals and treat them all with care and kindness. I love to walk and take care of them by giving them food, treats, and playing with them. More about me: I graduated from UC Berkeley in Astrophysics a couple years ago and I am working locally in San Diego since! Watching pets is one of my favorite things since I was never able to have my own pet dog or cat growing up, watching others has always been what I’m used to so I have a lot of experience caring for and attending to whatever your pet needs! I’m very respectful and I respond quickly in case you ever need anything :) Pet care is easy when working from home. I never have meetings so I am pretty much able to attend to them whenever they need me! I have a fenced yard, there are no other animals in our house that are my own so animals should have plenty of space. I like to allow them time to go outside if they need it but I am always happy to keep them in if they like. Welcome anywhere in the house.

About: Hello and welcome to ADVENTURES WITH BEAN 🌄 My name is Becca and am a San Diego native who has been exploring the world with my dog/best friend, Stella Bean We are very friendly, active, and have lots of love to give. In my home I believe in treating our guests as family, so that means all furry friends and humans are treated with the same love, kindness, and respect as the next 🌈.Our home is small and comfy but we have a large yard for any size dog to play around in. Taking care of animals is my full-time job so your pet is my priority. I am a very active person, I usually like to go on hikes or walks in canyons, beaches or parks. I double-majored in ecology and biology so nature and animals are my passion. I have extensive experience with animals and a deep understanding of animal behavior. I have worked with dogs w special-needs- I cared for a dalmatian who would have seizures and was very hyperactive, as well as many years caring for my blind dog, Tikka. I also have experience administering insulin to pets who have diabetes. From miniature chihuahua to great dane, I’ve worked with almost every breed. My schedule is flexible, so if you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to reach out. PLEASE INQUIRE ABOUT PACKAGE DEALS FOR DAYCARE!!! Pet care is a way of life for me. I care for Stella 24/7 but when we have company, I like to get up around 7am and plan my days around the dogs/animals I have the opportunity to take care of. From the beaches, to the mountains and canyons in between, I enjoy making my lifestyle an active one and enjoy bringing dogs along with me. When things slow down and I enjoy watching the dogs run around the yard while I work on projects around the house. In our home, dogs have the opportunity to venture between the house and the patio or back yard freely (so long as you are okay w that). The backyard is completely fenced in and double-gated. There is also fresh water dispersed around the property, along with plenty of toys and chews to play with. There is also a patio area so our furry friends can get some shade, if needed. When it comes to cats, I am more than happy to accommodate any size cat, I have a loft in my house that cats love to climb up into and laze about. They have toys and scratching posts up there as well for enrichment. I also have a beautiful beam that stretches above my kitchen that they tend to love to lay on and watch people walk around below. Every animal is different with its own unique temperament . What I enjoy doing is creating a comfy, secure, calm, and fun environment for each and every animal I get the opportunity to meet and care for.

About: I have been the go to animal person for family and friends for years. I was also until recently a dog owner myself so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust! I also work from home and have a very open and flexible schedule. I love dogs of all sizes and ages! With me you will have the comfort of knowing your dog will be treated like one of the family and receive nothing but love and attention. I will take your pup on walks and to the dog park if allowed. Dogs are allowed on furniture and beds but can also be crated if preferred. Since I recently lost my senior pup I’ve been missing having a furry companion around and would love to spoil and love on your pup for you! I work from home and I don’t like to leave any dog alone for longer than an hour or two and also if allowed love to take pups out and about with me too. I keep all doors closed. I take dogs out every few hours to potty. I always keep dogs leashed. I don’t let your dog interact with any other dogs on walks or in parks.

About: Hello 👋🏻 My name is Kaylee and I’ve been a professional pet sitter for about 5 years now. Over the course of those 5 years I’ve cared for all of the following animals: dogs, cats, birds, fish, snakes, turtles, lizards, hamsters, rabbits and horses. I’m in college getting an animal science degree and I’ve worked with a wide age range of animals. From puppies all the way to senior dogs and kittens all the way to elderly cats. *please know that while my listed prices are accurate additional surcharges may apply. (All prices will be disclosed before booking) I have a lot of availability for pet care in my schedule, I do have college classes I must attend and the occasional appointment with these being non-negotiable blocks of time I must leave the clients home to attend (which will be discussed ahead of time). However aside from that I have a plethora of time available to dedicate solely to your pet(s). *jobs that are “constant care” and/or have strict rules regarding how long the pet(s) can be left alone WILL incur a surge charge. I haven’t had a pet escape or get lost on my watch yet, and I don’t plan to start now. My childhood dog escaped once as kid, and even thought he was quickly found, it made me realize the horror of potentially losing a pet. As a result, I take pet safety very seriously. I will not walk a dog without a leash. I always double and triple check that doors are closed/locked (when appropriate).

About: Hi! I’m Anastasia - lifelong animal lover, cat mom, and the person who will absolutely send you way too many pictures of your pet. 🤍 I grew up with cats and two dogs, and I miss having dogs around all the time. So Rover feels like the perfect excuse to make some new furry friends. As a pet owner myself, I know how weirdly stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone new. My cat Dylan is basically my child, so I get it. When I care for your pet, my goal is to keep their routine as close to normal as possible and care for them the way you would. ✓ Lots of love, attention & playtime ✓ Walks at your pet’s usual pace ✓ Following feeding instructions carefully ✓ Respecting routines, quirks & boundaries ✓ Plenty of photo/video updates ✓ Treating your home with respect Whether your pet is super social, shy, dramatic, energetic, or just wants someone nearby while they nap, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I want you to be able to leave knowing your little (or very large) best friend is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I have a pretty flexible routine! I work from home three days a week, so I’m around throughout the day for walks, playtime, cuddles, and company. On my office days, I usually come home during lunch, which gives me another chance to check in and get outside. I’m also a big homebody but love being outdoors - weekends usually involve walks, fresh air, and spending time outside. I’m happy to work around your pet’s usual schedule and keep their routine feeling as normal as possible while you’re away. I always follow your pet’s usual routine and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I keep a close eye on them and follow any instructions you provide.
