About: I have over 15 years of experience taking care of our furry little friends ranging from fresh out the womb puppies to senior dogs needing insulin shots. I’ve done it all and I’ve seen it all. However, I go at the pace of your requests. Putting you and your best friend first. my weekly schedule consists of work Monday and Tuesday from 8-1 PM. The other days I’m very flexible.

“Crystal was absolutely lovely! She was so thoughtful and kind to my cat and even offered to replace my smoke detector batteries when they were low. She also sent the cutest pictures and videos!”
3. Kathleen W.
“Kathleen was super easy to communicate with and responsive. She jumped in to help us on very short notice when other cat care plans fell through. We felt comfortable knowing she had everything taken care of, and her daily check-ins were welcome reassurance that all was well while we were away.”
4. Crispin B.
“We were so pleased with the care our rather old, rather shy cat received from Crispin. And, to my amazement-the kitty area was as clean as I left it. Crispin, both kitty and I thank you!”

8. Ana L.
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life, back home I have four dogs, one beagle, one husky, one labrador and one border collie so I know how to take care of different breeds. I've also had my neighbors, friends and cousins rely on me to care for their dogs, feed them, take them on walks and play with them. I really love dogs and I miss my dogs every single day! I am a full time student but I have a flexible schedule. I am available Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays on the mornings from 6-10 and after 3pm, and open availability whole weekend! I am always on the look out for them and take them on walks/play with them. I can crate them if needed and also feed/take medicine if needed.

About: I have substantial experience with the dog world. I’ve volunteered walking and socializing dogs at the Milo Foundation, I’ve trained my own dog to an advanced level and even ran a small business helping others train their pups! I am a college student looking for any opportunity to spend with dogs! I have a dog at home who I miss very much, and would love to get outside and share my love with other pups while I’m in Santa Barbara! It is important to pay attention to each pet and cater to their needs. Whether that be extra play time or simply soaking up the sun! Additionally time outside is the best time spent!

11. Kimberly N.
About: Hello Animal Lovers! I have a huge place in my heart for dogs because I think they are one of the most special, loving creatures you will ever come across. I have rescued and fostered multiple dogs over the past 15 years. Additionally, I have trained a Seeing Eye Guide Dog puppy to adulthood that is still in active service today. I have experience with caring for senior dogs, as I adopted an elderly dog from a local rescue that required extensive medical care. Sadly, as of last year, I helped my 16 years old Scout over the rainbow bridge. I would love to care your doggie family member via site visits or walks as I’m missing my four legged friends that bring me so much joy. I would honored to take care of yours. K.N. My children have grown so I have a very flexible schedule and would love to be able to help care for your pet. I am free weekdays Monday-Friday, with select availability on weekends. I will lovingly care for your pet in your home as if it were my own. I will follow established rules for your household and strive to provide an interactive, engaging pet sitter service that will give your pup all the care they deserve.

“Krista was the best dog walker. She clearly loves dogs and being outdoorsy, she had no problem getting my Siberian Husky lots of activity and movement every day. I have complete trust in Krista having my dog for an hour, a day, or a week and knowing she will come back happy and tired out! Highly recommended.”
