“Due to an injury, living upstairs I’m not supposed to do much of and having to use a cane for awhile, I desperately needed help asap walking my big girl. We are active and usually walk at least two miles twice a day. I came across Daniel’s profile, nervous as I’ve never had anyone but myself walk my sometimes very hard headed strong Cane Corso. I really appreciated that his profile noted that he’s comfortable with bigger breeds and has one of his own. I can’t say enough good things about his work ethic, kindness, gentle demeanor, quick communication, punctuality, professionalism - all of it! Not to mention my dog with some serious separation anxiety by the 3rd morning was up before the alarm in the morning to put on her “necklace” and go walk with her new bestie! She now pouts and looks out the window for an hour after their walks! (ha ha thanks Daniel!) I have booked future walks with full confidence and absolutely no hesitation. I am so very very thankful for his way with my working breed dog and his help!”

“Thank you for the long walks this week! Regina continues to be reliable and excellent to work with. Daisy is always happy and healthy when we return home from work.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. Not only did I grown up with pets, I also have a lot of pet sitting experience, both in my own residence and others. I’m currently working from home, that leaves me with a lot of time to play with your furry campion. In addition to having a flexible schedule, it would be nice to have something to get me away from my desk. I live in a very walkable neighborhood.My condo has an open floor plan and I have a grassed patio. I’d also be able to crate if necessary.
“Tina is very reliable, friendly, and most importantly, great at staying in control of my lab Sheppard mix. There was no doubt that my dog was in the best hands while I was gone for days. Looking forward to the next time she can help with a stress free out of town trip.”

“Lilly was fantastic with our husky Rico. She arrived on time, inquired about care and behavior specifics, walked the full duration, provided updates, and followed our directions. We appreciated her support so we could attend other personal needs during the walk. We came back to a happy husky.”

“I have only had Hayden walk my dogs once but he is scheduled to walk them on a weekly basis. He was very prompt in coming to my home to meet me and the dogs and seemed comfortable with them. After the walk he left comments about both dogs which I appreciate. I look forward to a longer relationship with Hayden and my dogs.”


About: I've loved dogs for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for pets for friends, family and neighbors. People trust me with their pets and their children because I am responsible, gentle and attentive. I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like they are my own. Im currently a stay-at-home mom, which allows me to have a consistent and flexible schedule. I'm available for dog walks between 8am and 3pm on weekdays, and I also offer overnight boarding. Being home during the day means your dog will get plenty of attention, care, and companionship. My home is a safe, calm, and welcoming environment for pets. I have a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can play, explore, and get plenty of fresh air. I also have one very friendly male dog who loves the company of other dogs and helps them feel comfortable. I understand that every dog has different needs, so I do have a crate available and can provide a private, quiet space if your pet prefers their own area. My goal is to make every dog feel secure, loved, and at home while they’re in my care.

About: I offer a unique blend of scientific precision and deep compassion for your pets. For two years, I fostered shy and anxious dogs for the Helen Woodward Animal Center (HWAC). Getting accepted into their program required passing a rigorous vetting process, including interviews, home visits, and specialized training. Through HWAC, I gained extensive experience caring for rescues with complex medical and behavioral needs, including parasites, severe dental issues, and anxiety. I also provided essential behavior and obedience training to help these dogs thrive. Before fostering dogs, I was the proud owner of a diabetic cat for five years. I am completely comfortable with advanced medical care, including tracking blood glucose with a glucometer, administering subcutaneous insulin injections twice daily, and giving oral medications. My background as a scientist allows me to communicate clearly and effectively with veterinarians and clinic staff, ensuring your pet's medical instructions are followed perfectly. Because I currently have no pets of my own and am taking a hiatus from work, I have total availability. I look forward to devoting 100% of my time, skills, and love to your companion here in the San Diego area! 24/7 Flexible Availability (Evenings & Weekends Included) Because I am currently on a professional hiatus, your pet becomes my primary focus. I have complete schedule flexibility to accommodate your exact routine, including early mornings, late evenings, weekends, and holidays. Unlike sitters juggling a traditional 9-to-5, I am available for mid-day medical checks, precise feeding times, and extended companionship. Whether you need standard drop-ins or a dedicated presence to ease an anxious pet's separation anxiety, my open schedule allows me to be there whenever you or your pet need me most. Specialized In-Home Care for Your Pet's Comfort I provide premium, attentive care exclusively inside your pet's own home, where they already feel safest and most comfortable. Because I live in a yard-free condominium, I choose not to offer boarding. Instead, I bring my extensive medical and behavioral experience directly to your doorstep. This setup ensures your pet’s routine remains completely uninterrupted, eliminating the stress of a new environment. Whether your cat requires precise, timely insulin injections or your dog needs a patient, structured potty schedule, I adapt entirely to your home's setup. Your pet gets 100% of my focus in the environment they love best, giving you total peace of mind while you are away.
“So far, I’ve had Alyssa’s walking service for 3 times and I am happy to have found her. With my work schedule change, I am seeking a trusting sitter whom I can turn to to make sure not only my poppers bio needs but also mental needs are met(to know that their walker takes good care of them like I do). She has helped me with additional needs gladly and I am starting to build more confidence with her as we increase the request! Her warm presence was recognized by my poppers (critical!) and this give dog mom a peace of mind. We’ll continue to work together and as she get to know more about mines, we will endeavor to more services!”


“Leilani went above and beyond to help with a reservation request for the next morning. Extremely professional and plenty of good pet photos! Would happily recommend to anyone!”

“Gabriel was great with our pup! He is a really good communicator, and I appreciate that he took the time to read our care instructions carefully. I also really appreciate that he was flexible and understanding with a last minute schedule change due to a calendar mistake on my end. Would absolutely recommend him.”

“Luana was great! She even came over the day before to meet my pup and he loved her! She was very reliable, responsive, and I would 100% recommend her! Plus she took super cute pics for me :)”

“Jack was awesome with our golden retriever. He came over to meet her before our first scheduled walk and she instantly liked him. He is reliable and friendly. Will definitely use him again in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m a San Diego–based college student who has always loved being around animals. I know how much pets mean to their families, and I take that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or overnight stays, my goal is to make your pet feel relaxed, cared for, and at home while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m happy to follow specific routines, administer basic medications, and respect each pet’s unique needs. I believe communication is key, so I always provide regular photo and video updates to give you peace of mind. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and care for your furry family member! Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly routine as a college student. I plan my schedule around my classes, which allows me to be flexible with morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I’m able to provide consistent care for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays, and I make sure pets are fed, exercised, and given attention at the same times each day to keep their routine stable. I check my schedule weekly to ensure I can fully commit to each booking, and I prioritize clear communication and reliability so pets and owners can feel confident their care will never be rushed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely to ensure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy. I provide feeding and fresh water on schedule, clean litter boxes or cages as needed, and give plenty of attention and playtime tailored to each animal’s personality. I also monitor their behavior, energy levels, and health, noting any changes in appetite, mood, or habits. For pets that require medication, I administer it according to instructions and keep the owner updated. I treat each home and pet with respect, making sure the space stays clean and secure, and I provide regular photo and video updates so owners can feel confident and reassured while they’re away.
About: I have been pet sitting ever since I have been a little kid and have never had a dissatisfied pet owner. I love all kinds of animals and can’t wait to take care of yours like my own while you’re away. I work a full time job with a flexible schedule. I will be to adjust my schedule to fit yours and your pets needs. I am available for drop in visits or able to stay at your house. I am usually more available on weekends but can also be available during the week. I prefer jobs in hillcrest or nearby area. I grew up with large and medium size dogs and have been pet sitting for about 14 years. I am very responsible and will take care of your pet like it’s my own. Your pet and home will be in very good hands.

Sofia did very well with my dog! She took her to the beach and walked her around town when I was away. When I returned I saw them interacting and I could tell my dog was very happy. She also took great care to not let my cats escape while she took the dog out. I highly recommend Sofia!
Jacqueline was wonderful with my dogs! Always on time, super friendly, and easy to communicate with. My pups absolutely loved her and were always excited to see her. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and kind dog walker.

Mackenzie took amazing care of our sweet Abby! She was professional and responsive. Prior to the weekend, she came over to meet our pup. She also offered to feed her in addition to the walks. Thank you Mackenzie for allowing us to enjoy our time away knowing Abby was in good hands!

Tom was INCREDIBLE with my 2 dogs. He walked them every weekday for 5 weeks straight. He was communicative, punctual, caring, and my dogs always came back well exercised and happy. I highly recommend Tom to anyone who needs dog care in San Diego. He’s the best.

Sarah was amazing with my two pitbulls! She was communicative, reliable, and kept me updated with photos and videos. She took great care of my dogs and made me feel completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. My doggies absolutely loved her, and I could tell they were happy and comfortable with her. I look forward to booking with her again! 🐾💕

Tina has been an excellent walker for my older dog, Charlotte. I am chronically ill and housebound right now. I have my dog walked 3x a day. Sometimes walkers can’t cover their walks or cancel last minute. Tina has subbed in for almost all of the walks I’ve offered her outright. She has shown up for every last minute walk for which I needed coverage. My dog is a special needs dog, and Tina has been very good at following my requests on how my dog’s walk needs to be limited or otherwise. I would definitely recommend her!
