“Paige was great. She was responsible and did a wonderful job taking care of our little boy and girl. Including looking out for other not typical parts of the housesitting experience. We would definitely hire her again.”

“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”

“Cristen was awesome! Our schedules changed a bunch around this and she was extremely flexible and accommodating. We got many pics and updates and knew our little guy was in good hands. Will definitely use her again!”

“Our flight got cancelled and Maria came to the rescue! One of our two dogs is very nervous and it is always scary for us to have someone walking into the home without us there. But because they know and love Maria, we knew that our dogs were in good hands when she stayed with them for a few hours when our trip home was delayed. How they react to her is a good indication of the care that she gives them.”

About: As a first-grade teacher, I bring patience, responsibility, and a caring nature to every pet I meet. I understand that every dog is different and deserves personalized attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule and am available before and after school, on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. Right now I am on summer break and am available a lot more in my mornings and early afternoons. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so dog walks are something I genuinely look forward to. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while they’re with me. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, take dogs on walks, offer playtime and companionship, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages. My goal is to give pets a fun, stress-free experience while giving their owners peace of mind.
“Sage was amazing! This is the first time we used her as a doggie sitter for our baby Gracie, she was so great taking care of her and we look forward to using Sage again. In our opinion, she is the BEST!!! 🩷😊🐶”

“Olivia is a great communicator and regularly updated me with photos and texts. I felt very confident that my dogs and cats were well cared for and would absolutely recommend Olivia to take care of your fur kids.”

“Anna was amazing, not only did she show up on time, but she sent me several check ins throughout the night. She made sure that I knew that my Furkid was happy and safe. She followed the directions I left for her to the T. Anna was extremely punctual and professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of pet sitting. She was the epitome of a perfect pet sitter. I will definitely book her again ❤️”

“Audrey is a gem! My dog was unwell while I was away and Audrey handled everything so perfectly and with great calm. She took such good care of my fur baby and I am so grateful. Will continue to look to Audrey for my dog’s care!”

“Great puppy sitter for my special peanuts. My dogs can be a little clingy and snuggly and we treat them like children. Allison did the same! My puppy ran out to and jumped into her car as she was leaving because she loved Allison so much. Will definitely book again!”

“Lara cared for our dogs for the first time this weekend, and we were so impressed by her. She managed our 3 high-maintenance dogs without a problem and we came home to a happy and relaxed group! (And a very clean house). She will be our go-to sitter moving forward. Don’t hesitate to book her!”

“Brooke was amazing! 10/10. She was responsible, punctual, communicative and took great care of our fur baby! We had regular updates and pics which were awesome! We came home to a spotless house. Luna loved Brooke! She was very warm and loving with our pup. Would definitely use Brooke again! Awesome!”

About: I have owned dogs for a combined time of over 10 years. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, and cuddling with them. Over the summer I have a very flexible schedule as I am a teacher on summer break looking to make some extra cash. I am currently available most weekdays but not weekends. I am an early riser and love to go on walks. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup and spending time with them. I have a fenced back yard and one calm Great Dane/ Lab mix we adopted over a year ago named Danner. We do not have children or any other pets. I would treat your dog as I do my own, with love, care and compassion.
“Mari was great! She sent updates frequently and took good care of our two crazy pups. Our house was just as clean as when we left which was much appreciated as well. Would definitely use again ! ❤️”


About: 🐾 Trusted, Experienced Pet Care in San Diego 🐾 Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover, dog owner, and experienced pet caregiver serving San Diego. I share my home with one friendly adult dog and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets for friends, neighbors, and family. I also bring extensive equestrian experience, giving me confidence with animals of all sizes and temperaments. As a retired law enforcement professional, I value safety, reliability, and clear communication. You can feel confident your pets and home are in responsible, attentive hands. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, house sitting, and flexible care tailored to your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs exercise, companionship, or a calm, steady presence, I provide dependable care and regular updates for your peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have recently retired from the law enforcement profession so I have plenty of availability and flexibility to work with your individual pet care needs. I have a fenced in yard and one resident adult dog who plays well with others. I believe our pets are part of the family so they will spend most of their time indoors with me and my pup. I’m happy to crate your pets and even accept puppies.

About: i’ve been peoples go to dog watcher since i was a kid, neighbors, family, and friends always ask me to watch their pets, i feel i can connect with them well and i always take time to do everything i can for them so they are their most comfortable happy selves they can be. my night time schedule is open and flexible. cancellations are always understood and i will always do my best to find a time and day to watch your pup or pet. i have an apartment with two lovely chihuahuas that are always double checked to be in a safe and comfortable environment. i am able to crate dogs if needed and am able to walk dogs safely even if on the larger side.
“I can't say enough great things about Daryll Ann! She's amazing and I highly recommend her if you're looking for a loving home to board your dog. Daryll Ann is a compassionate, friendly, animal lover who showed every interest in making sure that both Winston AND myself were comfortable. She obviously knows her stuff when it comes to caring for animals (she's in the veterinary field) and she knew every question to ask prior to Winston's stay. Thanks again!!”

About: I grew up on a rescue farm, so caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and I’ve truly never met one I didn’t adore. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own! I have experience fostering and dog-sitting pups of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m also comfortable working with dogs who have medical needs or unique personalities, whether they’re high-energy, shy, reactive, or a little anxious in new settings. I am a dog person to my core and have loved them all! I work from home Monday - Friday, so my situation is ideal for boarding and daycare as well as shorter overnights. I enjoy being outdoors as much as I enjoy a night in, so I can be flexible depending on each dog's needs. I live in a walkable neighborhood where I only need to be away from home for short periods of time to go grocery shopping or to hit the gym. I have always had a dog (though I am currently dog-free, unfortunately), so I am naturally attuned to their schedules and needs. I live in a very dog-friendly complex in a very residential neighborhood. I have lots of experience with controlled walks, crate training, and general dog safety, including emergency care and safe/proper introductions with other dog-friendly dogs. I live alone in a very calm, peaceful environment, and am conscientious of respecting a dog's space and know the importance of maintaining a semi-normal schedule while they're in a new/unfamiliar environment.

Sarah F. took excellent care of Sandi while we were away. She was very responsive and responsible, and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Sandi was clearly well cared for, and we would absolutely trust Sarah again in the future.

Katherine provides outstanding care for our dog, Bailey, who gets so excited the moment she walks through the door. Beyond her excellent pet care, is a fantastic communicator. We receive updates, notes, and photos daily, which makes being away so much easier. Most importantly, I have complete peace of mind knowing she is in our home; she is incredibly reliable, professional, and treats our home with the utmost respect. She is easily the best dog sitter we have ever worked with, and we feel so lucky to have found her! 🐶

Brooke was amazing! 10/10. She was responsible, punctual, communicative and took great care of our fur baby! We had regular updates and pics which were awesome! We came home to a spotless house. Luna loved Brooke! She was very warm and loving with our pup. Would definitely use Brooke again! Awesome!
Gretchen was fantastic with my dog, Marshall. It was immediately clear that she has a genuine love for animals and truly enjoys spending time with them. Marshall took to her quickly, and I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. She took him on nice long walks, gave him plenty of attention, and did a wonderful job keeping him happy and comfortable while I was away. I really appreciated how attentive she was to his routine and needs. Gretchen was also incredibly respectful of my home and left everything spotless. It’s not always easy to find someone who is both an excellent pet sitter and such a considerate house guest, but she was both. I would absolutely trust Gretchen with Marshall again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, reliable, and responsible pet sitter.

Chase was such a good sitter for my dog! I was initially worried because I was looking for someone last minute, but Chase put my worries at ease. He was communicative with me when I was away, kept the place clean, and also watered some plants! Would definitely hire Chase again.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sarah was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Marshall. From the very beginning, she was communicative, thoughtful, and clearly cared about making sure both Marshall and I felt comfortable. Marshall was adjusting to a new living situation, and Sarah was incredibly patient, attentive, and accommodating to his needs and routine. She provided excellent care, kept me updated, and gave me great peace of mind while I was working long night shifts. It was obvious that Marshall was happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention and affection while I was away. Sarah was also extremely respectful of my home and left everything clean and tidy. I truly appreciated how considerate she was of both my space and Marshall’s needs. I would not hesitate to book with Sarah again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter.

Mari was great. She is very communicative and quick to reply. She texted me a photo and update each day, which was very reassuring for me. My dog liked her, she followed directions and my house was kept clean and everything in its place when I returned. I will definitely book Mari the next time I need a pet sitter. Thanks Mari.
