House Sitting Loma Portal

About: Hi, I’m Kirra, a San Diego based dog walker and sitter with over 250 five-star reviews and a lifelong connection to animals. I’ve grown up around pets of all kinds, and caring for them isn’t just what I do, it’s who I am! I’m deeply attuned to animal energy and behavior, which allows me to quickly build trust, even with shy or anxious pets. I’m experienced with animals of all ages and temperaments and take a calm, grounded approach, meeting each pet where they are and helping them feel safe, relaxed, and understood. I’m active, fully present, and give 100% of my attention to the animals in my care. Your pets aren’t just watched, they’re genuinely cared for, respected, and loved as if they were my own. I’ve lived in Point Loma for the past 15 years and truly cherish being close to the ocean. I love walking throughout the neighborhood, exploring the beach, and spending time in local parks. Being outdoors is a big part of who I am, and it naturally carries into how I care for animals. I’m highly responsible, intentional, and thoughtful in everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priority. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members and care for them with the love and attention they deserve. I have a small fenced yard. We have a bright sun filled home and welcome all pets. I provide a cozy home environment and will treat your pets like family!! The dogs I care for only get the best! I provide filtered water, organic home cooked meals if needed and wholesome treats to keep your pups healthy and energized! I am also available to drop in and check on your pets in your home if you would prefer that.

“I would recommend and rebook! She was able to help watch my dog on short notice and was even able to meet up prior to our travels. Very responsive and great w my dog.”

“I highly recommend Sabrina! She took excellent care of our dog Olive and our house. Olive absolutely loves Sabrina so I know she is getting the best care possible when we are away. Thank you, Sabrina!”

“Mackenzie was excellent with our dog, Baker, while we were away for the week. Baker can be a bit of a difficult dog to watch, but she handled everything incredibly well and made him feel comfortable in her care. She kept us updated daily with messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Baker trusted her, and we’re so grateful for how attentive and patient she was. I would highly recommend Mackenzie to anyone looking for a reliable, caring at-home sitter!”

About: Dog dad who spent 11 amazing years with my sweet Pitty, Zuri. I also helped raise four puppies and have many friends whose dogs and cats I consider family. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I'll take the time to get to know your fur baby and work with you to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm experienced caring for pets of all ages, including seniors, puppies and kittens, pets with special dietary or medical needs, and those with unique personalities or behavioral challenges, including reactive or aggressive pets. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priorities. I know firsthand how much our pets miss us when we're away, and I always wanted Zuri to receive the same love, patience, and attention that I gave her at home and is exactly the kind of care I'll provide for your loved ones. *Heartbreakingly, Zuri passed away over two years ago, so there won't be any other pets with me while I care for yours. Taking on new clients to fill my schedule. Currently have no schedule restrictions besides the beginning of September and the last week of September/week of October. I will treat your loved one as if they were my own by making sure they're always safe and happy. I know what it was like to be away from a pup and understand the stress their under while their person is away and is why it's so important to me that you and they are satisfied with the care I provide.

“Helena was wonderful with our dog Noodle! He's a slower paced aloof guy but she was attentive to his needs. He needs daily medicine so it was a relief to have someone checking on him.”

“Shelby took great care of my pup and house while I was out of town. She accommodated a very last minute request and I came back to a happy dog and very tidy house. Would recommend!”

About: I've spent over 25 years caring for dogs and have owned and been fully responsible for more than 10 dogs throughout my life. During that time, I've cared for hundreds of dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My experience goes far beyond simply feeding and walking dogs. I've handled daily exercise routines, leash training reinforcement, medication schedules, overnight care, senior dog support, and emergency situations when quick decisions were needed. I'm comfortable with everything from energetic puppies to large-breed dogs and senior pets that require extra attention. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. My goal is to provide a safe, reliable, and stress-free experience while keeping owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they're away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and focus on creating an environment where they feel comfortable, exercised, safe, and cared for. My schedule is extremely flexible right now, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day. Because I have open availability on both weekdays and weekends, I can accommodate dogs that need more frequent potty breaks, exercise, medication schedules, or simply extra attention throughout the day. I believe consistency is important, so I work to maintain the same routine your dog is used to at home whenever possible. Whether I'm caring for your dog in my home or yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. With 25+ years of experience owning and caring for dogs, I understand the importance of exercise, supervision, and attention to each dog's unique needs. Safety is always my top priority, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I treat every dog like they're part of the family.

“Allison was awesome! Dogs were happy. She is reliable and trustworthy. I am so happy to have a reliable, trustworthy and kind house/pet sitter. I highly recommend her?”

“Summer did a great job. She sent us updates during the stay, followed our instructions, and went above and beyond getting the house ready for our return. But the most important review is from Boomer himself….he gives her 4 Paws Up!!!”

Kim J.

“Lydia was amazing with Waffles. She was extremely responsive and kept me updated the whole time with tons of photos, which really put me at ease. It was clear he was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She also kept our home clean and tidy! I felt completely confident with her and would absolutely book with her again.”
