House Sitting La Jolla Village

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 12 years old, and I grew up with 3 dogs in my house. I also worked at the San Francisco SPCA for two years when I lived there, and I’m on the Young Professionals Board of the Rancho Coastal Humane Society here in San Diego. I work remotely on a computer, and it’s likely I would plan to work from your home and spend quality time with your dog all day. I love having a furry friend around and I keep pretty active, so walking or even jogging or playing fetch with a high energy breed is no trouble. I love caring for dogs in their home environment where they are most comfortable, and saving them the stress of an unfamiliar environment while their family is out of town.

“Julie stayed at our house for the week while we were away for work, and i couldn’t be happier with her! She kept me updated on how our boy was doing the whole week, and the house was in pristine condition when I got home! 100000% will be using her whenever she is available!”

“Elise did a fantastic job dogsitting Athena! She was very responsive, gave daily updates (with pictures). She even took time meet Athena before I traveled, and to learn some commands. I had a complete peace of mind during my trip and Athena was sad to let her go. I would definitely recommend Elise, and book her again, 💯.”

About: Growing up on farmland, there were always animals around! Whether we were training our rescues or helping find homes for the strays that showed up at our door, we always had pets to care for. I have gained so much knowledge and experience over the years through helping my parents care for our animals, volunteering at shelters and hosting friends’ pets long-term. I sadly left my pets at the farm when I moved to San Diego, so I am looking for some new furry friends! I have a lot of love to give, and it would be such a pleasure to care for your pet!! <3 I am free on most weekdays in the late afternoon/evening, and I am free for overnights and all day care on weekends. I am currently in school and working another job, but I will do my very best to be accommodating!! I am a very attentive sitter, and the wellbeing of your pet will always be my top priority. I understand every pet parent has their own way of doing things, and I will do whatever I can to make sure you and your pet feel comfortable in my care!

“A wonderful and kind girl. Trustworthy above & beyond cat person. She stayed in touch multiple times a day and made the time pass for Bowie as if I had never left. My car has never been so at peace in my absence & I am so happy I found my new Catsitter.”

“Kayla was very attentive and communicative throughout her stay with our three pets. We will definitely continue to ask her to return to watch our animals and feel confident that they are being well taken care of : )”

“April was great watching my Australian Shepard! He's an active pup and I loved the he was still able to get his usual amount of steps in. I also appreciated the photo updates”

“Josette has been wonderful with our two dogs! We have an anxious girl who is typically nervous around new people but she took to Josette right away and is now very excited when she comes because she knows she is going to go on an adventure with her and have a blast. Josette is also great with our senior guy, and she’s able to tire them both out even though they have different exercise needs. Josette also totally spoiled them with plenty of treats (pre-approved by us) and by switching up the activities she took them on so every day was new and exciting. She also sent plenty of update photos, which we appreciate. We’re very pleased with how quickly our dogs became comfortable with her and we fully trust her with our fur babies. I highly recommend Josette!”

“Zakira was such a great house and dog sitter!! She took such great care of our pets and our home while we were away for about five days. She cleaned up things I didn’t even ask her to do and took out the trash and just went above and beyond in the sweetest ways. She shared pictures and notes for us to know that our doggies were well taken care of. We will absolutely be hiring her again in the future for drop-in visits as well as more housesitting if she’s available!”

Amanda R.

“Leah took great care of our pup! We had such peace of mind while we were away. She spent lots of quality time with him at home and on walks, definitely goes above and beyond! Glad we found her!”

Dasun H.

“This is our second time with Dustin and again he was amazing! Our dog really loves him, and he is so respectful and responsive, and takes great care with our pet and our home. 5 stars!! We will rebook him for sure!”

Sally H.

“Rose was an excellent, super communicative sitter for our Gibbs! She took great care of him and kept us updated on how he was during our trip, will definitely book with her again!”

About: Hey there, neighbors! I’m Noam, a university student at UC San Diego who loves animals, photography, and running. I’ve had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, so I know that taking care of a pet isn’t just a responsibility, it’s taking care of another member of the family! As a student, I also know how busy life can get. Whether you’re stuck at work, have a long day of classes, or simply need an extra hand, I’d love to be there for your pets when you can’t. My priority is to make sure your pets feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I’ve personally cared for dogs, cats, and even rabbits, and I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m also an avid runner, so if your pet has extra energy to burn, I’m always happy to make their walk a run! I offer walking, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I’ll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! - Noam :) I’m currently a university student, so pet care fits in perfectly between classes and study breaks. I personally would probably have more time on weekends, and could definitely use pet care as a break from my intensive studies! I’ll make sure that the pets are taken care of at all times, preventing them from eating anything (including themselves haha), getting themselves hurt, and making sure they stay safe overall.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and previously house and dog sat for families throughout the South Bay. After moving to San Diego, I’m excited to get back into dog sitting and caring for your dog! I work remotely, so dog care fits easily into my daily routine. I have flexibility for morning and lunchtime walks, drop-in visits throughout the day, and can work my schedule around your dog’s needs. I’m also able to stay at your home while you’re away and can adjust my routine to make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I like to keep dogs as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medication, and anything else they’re used to. I’ll also make sure they get plenty of attention and exercise while keeping your home clean and treating it with the same care and respect I would my own.

“Thank you for taking such good care of my kids! My dog, Charlie, and my cat, Apollo, both were very well taken care of. I received a lot of updates and photos and came home to a clean house with happy animals. I recommend Ryan for taking care of your babies :)”

“Kannica was so communicative & sweet with Chai - it made me feel super secure knowing that Chai was being well taken care of! She sent multiple photos every day and I could tell that Chai felt comfortable with her and had a great time in her care this week. Would absolutely rebook :)”
