“Ashley was great! Sent plenty of pics and a video of her playing with my dog Molly! She was great at communicating cating with me about their walk. I would recommend her and use her again in the future!”
“Lea is a great young lady. Very dependable and on time every day. I will definitely use her again if I have the need in the future. Lea has been taking my dog down to the local wetlands walking the paths with my dog Polo. I love seeing the pics. Thanks Lea”

“Kira was great about communicating and we could tell our 3 year old lab Olive had a great time with her. We met beforehand and she seems like a very reliable pet sitter! We will definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Emma was super wonderful in all ways. The dogs took an immediate liking to her. She was kind, comfortable and confident with them. Emma's communication was also top notch throughout. As I'm also recovering from recent surgery and have limited mobility at the moment Emma was also gracious enough to help me with a few small tasks around the house like bringing in my packages. Thank you Emma! From: RayRay and Banzai”
“Virginie has been wonderful! Very communicative and proactive in arranging a meet and greet. Rosie loved her immediately, which is always a good sign. She’s been so patiently flexible with our ever-changing schedule. Definitely recommend her!”
About: Hi Im Kevin! I’m the son of a veterinarian, so my life has been nothing but animals. Especially dogs! I grew up with two ridgebacks and a boxer so I am well versed in dogs that will try to take off after a deer or fill up an entire couch. Open to any size or age of dog. I worked at an animal hospital so I’m comfortable giving medication if need be. Looking forward to hanging out with your dog! I’m currently taking online courses so I am available most days and can work with unique schedules. Weekends are also possible if scheduled in advance. My care is focused on the energy level of the dog. I live near the dog park in Ocean Beach which is a short walk from Dog Beach for the more active dogs. For the less active pups a walk around the block and some backyard fetch is great too!
About: I am a huge animal lover, grew up with cats, dogs and rabbits. I have been dog/cat/bird and house sitting for over 15 years, including providing medications twice daily, walking, feeding and playing for a day to an extended stay of a week or so. I want to help out those who love their furry family members and don’t have the time or won’t be home and have pets that need care and a playmate without using a kennel. I love and enjoy caring for cats and dogs like they are my own and want to provide the best possible care. I’m an outdoorsy person and enjoy going on long walks/ hiking in the park, exploring and finding beautiful wonders outdoors. I am energetic and like playing just as much as the pets do, haha! 😄 my dog is an energetic, playful and loving boy. He is a great playmate to all types of dogs and is eager to play. I am home all day and spend mornings going on walks in the neighborhood or at the beach and park. I am an aspiring artist and spend time at home painting and drawing, this allows much time to spend with my dog and others I watch. I am out at most a couple hours a few times a week, shopping or surfing but do not like leaving dogs alone for more than a few hours. I have a fenced in yard and a loving pup to keep your fur baby company when I am out. I typically like to board dogs in my own home to better spend time with them while under my care. For cats or other pets who can be some more I would come to your home a few times a day to take care of their feeding needs, any litter or etc. clean up and spend some time with them so they are not lovely. If doing dog walking I would come to your home when needed and take them for a walk at your preferred location wether that’s your neighborhood, at the park or beach for a fun adventure.
“Shelby has been so wonderful with our shy pup! We will definitely be repeat customers :)”
“Received updates and photos throughout the walk, definitely can tell doggo was loved and cared for! 🩵”
About: I’ve grown up with German Shepards, black labs, dashaunds, and chihuahuas. I’m truly a lover of all breeds, big and small! My dad was a K-9 handler during my childhood, I’m very good at reading dogs and avoiding bad behavior. I live with one roommate who works part-time and goes to school, while I work from home full time with a very flexible schedule. It will mostly be me and your doggo hanging out at the house and/or park! I do live in an apartment, without a porch or yard. But, I am walking distance from Dusty Rhodes Dog Park and am happy to wear their energy out there for 1-2 hours, daily.
About: I’m a seasoned pet sitter with 2 years professional experience, friend’s first choice for their beloved pets, and raised 3 dogs and many cats. Have a nursing background so I’m comfortable with giving medications. I’m currently working part time with plenty of flexibility in my schedule. I can provide extended boarding for your pets or stay in your home. I can provide quality care in your home. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex, close to a park. I don’t have any pets at the moment.
About: At the age of 10, my first job was walking all of the dogs in the neighborhood. I’ve had dogs as pets my whole life, and am absolutely ready to give your pup all the love and attention they deserve. From big to small and everything in between, I look forward to getting to know their personality and making sure they are comfortable when their primary parents are away. I work full time from home, and look forward to the breaks in my day where I can get outside. I currently take my dog out every 2 hours, and would love to extend this schedule to your dog as well Since I work from home, and live near OB, my dog comes along with me and my family just about everywhere. While in your home, I would ensure that their routine remains as close to normal as possible, as I understand what it’s like to have a dog with separation anxiety, and just want to make them as comfortable as possible.
About: Having grown up with pets throughout my life, I've developed a natural ability to connect with animals of all temperaments. I'm particularly skilled at recognizing subtle changes in behavior that might indicate stress or health concerns. My experience includes caring for senior pets with special needs, administering medications, and providing the extra patience and gentle care older animals require. I'm also comfortable with high-energy puppies and understand the importance of consistent training, boundaries, and positive reinforcement during these formative months. I believe in adapting my approach to each pet's unique personality rather than expecting them to adjust to me. What truly sets me apart is my genuine love for animals combined with my flexible remote work schedule, allowing me to be present and attentive throughout the day. Your pets won't just be checked on—they'll have a dedicated companion ensuring they're happy, healthy, and receiving plenty of affection while you're away. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which means I'm available throughout the day to care for your pets. My work arrangement allows me to provide consistent attention, regular feeding times, and plenty of companionship for your furry family members. I already enjoy taking 1-2 walks daily as part of my routine, and I would love to bring your pets along for these outings. Whether it's midday potty breaks, morning exercise, or evening strolls, I can easily adapt my schedule to maintain your pets' regular routines and ensure they receive the care and attention they deserve. I provide attentive, loving care and create a safe environment for pets whether in my home or yours. I prioritize following your established routines to minimize stress for your animals. When house sitting, I respect your home while ensuring your pets maintain their comfortable surroundings and familiar schedule. I'm detail-oriented about safety, keeping doors secure, following feeding instructions precisely, and staying alert to any behavioral or health changes. I'll send regular updates with photos so you can see your pets are happy and well-cared for. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your home and beloved animals are in responsible, caring hands during your absence
“She was great! Was available on short notice, sent me pics and lotsssss of updates! She did amazing with my pup. 10/10 recommend. 🥰”
About: Hi! I rescued my first pup 13 years ago and gave her a life full of love, training, and tail-wagging fun. She recently passed, and while we’re not quite ready for a new dog of our own, I miss the happy chaos dogs bring. I’ve cared for all kinds of pups—from zoomy little puppies to sweet senior snugglers—and I treat every dog like part of the family. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just good company, your dog will be in loving, experienced hands (and probably spoiled with belly rubs). I work from home and have complete flexibility. I dictate my schedule fully so I have the flexibility to come and take care of your pup! I have a dog friendly home as I had a dog for 13 years that recently passed away. She was very well trained so I didn’t have to worry too much about her getting in to mischief. However I’m an experienced dog owner so I know how to keep a dog safe in my home. I have a small patio for sunbathing which my dog loved. This is a condo so outdoor is on first floor and safe.
About: I have taken care of my friends and families dogs and love animals. I am in school on the zoology pathway and would love to work with animals once I graduate I am a college student I have class on Monday Wednesday 5:30-6:45PM and classes Tuesday and Thursday from 11:00AM-3-15PM so I can work any time other than that I have a lot of experience with pets so whatever you would like me to do while I'm pet sitting at your house I will be able to.
“Sierra was so sweet and attentive to my girls this week! She took pictures and gave me updates after each walk so I would know how they did. The true test is how much they looked forward to her walks. Vivie only offers her “lamby” to her favorites so she passed with flying colors! Will definitely hope Sierra’s available next time we’re out of town.”
“Amazing as always! Nikol is my go to when I have to work longer, have meetings, or will be out of the house. Doge loves her, and I have a great piece of mind knowing she’s with him.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have years of experience caring for them! I love dogs of all kinds and sizes. I have cared for many pets of family members and friends. I trained both my dogs myself since they were puppies. I am very active so i will be taking your pup for many nice walks if desired by parent! * Dogs are allowed on bed and couch FYI - My dog Tobi does not live with me, so there are no pets in my current apartment i work 3 night shifts a week. i have the time to take your pup out for walks, pee breaks, and play time throughout the day. your doggy will be taken out for pee/poo breaks every 2 hours. I love going to parks and walking around. They are allowed on my couch for naps and cuddles. they will be treated with so much care and love!

“Kevin helped watch my cats many times while I was out of town. One of them can be skittish around new people but Kevin was able to befriend him quickly which put me at ease. He also sent pictures of the cats and kept me updated on how they were doing while I was gone. He also seems to genuinely enjoy the presence of animals and so he spent time with them rather than just running in and out of the house to feed them. It was really great to have a petsitter who leaves you with no worries while you are out of town. I cannot recommend Kevin enough!”

“Emily Ryan has watched my dog more times than I can even count, and I truly can’t recommend her highly enough. My dog comes with a slew of special instructions and quirks, and Emily has always followed every detail diligently and with care. She’s incredibly attentive, responsible, and kind — one of the very few people I’ve ever fully trusted to care for my dog. There’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that any pet in her care is in the best hands. Emily treats animals with genuine love and respect, and it shows in how comfortable and happy my dog is every time she’s with her. If you’re looking for someone who’s dependable, experienced, and thoughtful, Emily is it. Sincerely, Mikaela Wild”
