About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. My dog, Bearra, a Lab and German Shepherd mix, recently passed away after living an amazing 15.5 years. She was such a huge part of my life and taught me how important patience, love, exercise, and attentive care are for pets at every stage of life. I’m looking forward to spending more time outside doing something I truly enjoy, caring for and spending time with dogs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, caring, and attentive service for both you and your dog. I am a teacher so I have weekends available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active and outside, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely love. While I do not have a private yard, my complex has safe grassy areas for walks and bathroom breaks, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks around Coronado, Seaport Village, and Miramar Reservoir. I treat pets like family, so they are welcome on the furniture and will receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care while they are with me.
“Calynne is awesome. She takes great care of our puppy Luna. She gives Luna lots of love while on the walks and plays with her. She has also done some light training with Luna. Highly recommend Calynne. Thank you.”
About: Hi, I'm Eda! I've been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. My grandpa had a beautiful farm in Temecula, where I grew up helping care for dogs, cats, chickens, goats, ducks, and even one very mean buck. From an early age, I also looked after my neighbors' pets, and I loved every minute of it. My family is from Turkey, where there's a deep appreciation for animals, especially dogs and cats. In my culture, animals are considered part of the family, and that's exactly how I've always treated them. That mindset has stayed with me throughout my life. I'm the friend who always finds the pet at the party, stops to admire every dog on a walk (with permission, of course), and can't resist saying hello to my neighborhood cat. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's unique personality and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quiet companion, I'll care for them with patience, attention, and lots of affection. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in kind, reliable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and work part-time from home. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the animals in my care, whether they need regular walks, playtime, feeding, enrichment, or simply some extra companionship throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I work from home part-time, giving me flexibility to provide attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including routines, feeding schedules, exercise needs, and crate preferences. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own.
About: I have had a pet my whole life and even volunteered at the animal shelter having a strong passion for animal care. While volunteering I learned how to train pets, be a responsible, and responsive animal care taker. I have two dogs Toxi and Epsy, they are currently keeping my parents company as i recently moved out of my family home. I miss them dearly and love having pets in my home. I will give any animal the love and care as they are family. In my past I have cared for elderly, post surgery, and disabled dogs. I am very caring and would make any animal as comfortable as possible in any situation. I am studying for engineering certifications and have free time all week all day making me very available and willing to go on multiple walks throughout the day. My home has a gated area and pet welcome home with food and water bowls along with other dog essentials in my home like toys and treats. I have a gated front and back yard which are open for any furry friends coming into my home. I live in a very walkable neighborhood that can accommodate long walks.
About: I've grown up around animals and can confidently care for any pet. I volunteer at my local Humane Society, walking multiple dogs daily—I'm ready for walks of any length! I also have experience with house-sitting and helping dogs socialize. I’m very patient on walks and love working on leash training, always taking the time to help each dog feel comfortable, confident, and safe. I’m currently working part time during the week (M/W/F/Sa). My Sundays are completely free, please contact me about specific times during the week! I’m not interested in taking care of pets at my home, however I have no problem with commuting and taking care of your pets to meet whatever requirements they need.
“Mackenzie was very nice. She had no problem coming in and getting to know Nikko. He’s a puppy so his energy is high and she did great with him. I’d recommend her if you’re looking for someone reliable to walk your dog.”

I offer a crate-free experience (unless requested) and keep my schedule light to give your dog the full attention they deserve. Need help getting your dog here and back? I also offer pickup and drop-off for a small additional fee. Let’s set up a Meet & Greet—I’d love to learn more about your pup and see if we’re a good fit! 🐶 I’m currently not working and only attend school three days a week, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog the love and care they deserve. Your pup will enjoy a peaceful, loving stay in my home, with 24/7 care, no other pets or children, and a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I only host a limited number of dogs at once to ensure each one gets lots of one-on-one attention. Great for dogs who need calm surroundings, structure, or special care. Daily updates and cuddles included! Pickup/drop-off available for an additional fee. I can also dog sit in your home if you prefer!
About: I have owned dogs for a combined time of over 10 years. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, and cuddling with them. I work half days at a school so I am not available between 8-2 on weekdays. 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.

Being with animals is very calming to me so I think having the time with pets inbetween days would be lovely. I always will try to establish a trust between me and the pet, I will sit a comfortable distance away and have your pet give trust on their own terms, I would like to be a sitter that your pet is friendly with and not just a person who comes in to feed them.

“Janet was absolutely amazing while we were away for a week! She was always reliable and on time, making sure our dog Soul got plenty of exercise and that Soul, along with our two cats Pickle and Michael, received all the love and attention they needed. She sent daily updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind. It's clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. We’re so grateful to have found her—Janet is definitely part of our pet care team from now on! Woof woof, meow 💜”

Abby was wonderful! She was able to accommodate us last minute and was friendly, reliable, and professional from the start. My dog Soul immediately loved her and her positive energy. I felt completely comfortable leaving my baby in her care and would absolutely book with Abby again. I highly recommend giving her a try!
Ayaan is just so great! Such a sweet and personal human, my massive Shepard liked her immediately. I loved the picture updates and my boy got a 2 1/2 mile walk! Looking forward to having her support with overnights as well. Do yourself a favor and snag time with her while she still has the availability.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Lemon Grove. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
