“Helena is communities and reliable. She spent a lot of time playing with my cat which I really appreciated. She’s a great resource and I hope she’s available the next time I’m out of town. Thanks again, Helena!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Rachel. She took care of our three crazy dogs and did such an amazing job with all of their differing personalities and energy levels! She wrote detailed notes, thoroughly followed all of our instructions and sent so many cute photos!! She really made me feel like our pets were loved and cared for while we were gone. Thank you!!!”
5. Jeeheon & Amy C.
“Very kind, quick to respond, and sent a few videos even! Followed the instructions well and communicated throughout the visit. Would definitely book again!”
6. Chelsea P.
“Chelsea helped me with my two pugs for years! She was good about walking them and checking that they didn’t over heat. Chelsea is very sweet and always made time to cuddle with them and a book or movie on the couch. Snuggle time is my dogs favorite pastime! Chelsea helped me with my dogs, but she had cats herself, so she’s well versed in either animal! I recommend her to watch your cats or dog!”
7. Cristy R.
“Cristy was without a doubt the BEST sitter I’ve ever had. She went above and beyond in every way, sent so many pictures and updates each day, and even helped when something went wrong at my house. 😭 I couldn’t recommend her more! My fur babies were so well loved and cared for. My pup was sick at the time, and she administered the medicine and handled everything so beautifully. 🤍 I’m usually an anxious mess when I leave my pets, but I felt so comfortable and confident leaving them with Cristy!”
8. Deidre H.
“Deidre is truly one of the best! She accommodated a last minute/new booking for me and I was beyond pleased. She was professional and kept me updated the entire day. It was clear that my boyz were in good hands! Lots of pictures sent too and they were very happy with her! Will definitely be calling on Deidre for future needs! Wonderful and caring pet sitter!”
9. Suzzana G.
“Suzzana took great care of Misha over the holidays. She provided a thoughtful care card and photos with each visit. We look forward to knowing that we have someone we can trust to watch over our cat while we are away. Thank you!”
10. Calvin M.
“Calvin is a very close family friend he has helped us with our dogs when we are out of town multiple times, he is always extremely energetic and ready to play with our golden retriever and compassionate towards our older less energetic scottish terrier who enjoys belly rubbs and watching tv. Overall i couldn’t recommend anyone better than Calvin to be a dog sitter!”
11. Craig S.
“Craig was so great helping out with my puppy!! He left super detailed reports after each visit with pictures, and was extremely punctual. Will happily have Craig help out again in the future!”
12. Heather A.
“Heather went above and beyond for our cat and dog. She gives the best updates and takes the best photos! Having just moved to Point Loma we were on the hunt for someone who was in the area and who we felt comfortable with in our home and around our pets. Our pets immediately took a liking to her and she gave them the play time and care they deserved. We look forward to having Heather watch our pets again in the future!”
13. Elisha S.
“One of the most remarkable qualities about Elisha is their profound understanding of animal behavior. This is not just limited to dogs, but extends to a wide array of species. Elisha’s ability to read and interpret an animal’s body language is uncanny, allowing them to respond appropriately to any situation. This skill is particularly crucial when it comes to dog sitting, as it ensures that the pets are not only well cared for but also feel safe.”
14. Marina H.
“From being my student to my mentee, Marina is now like a daughter to me. I trust her 100% and know her to be a loving, caring, insightful, sensitive, warm, and passionate person. She and my puppy Elio get along beautifully and it is such fun watching them play together! She has cared for other people's young children, as a nanny, as well as other people's pets, as a dog-sitter and a house-sitter. I am confident that she will care for you and your pet and provide you with top-notch care whatever your pet's needs.”
15. Alexandra M.
About: I’ve been independently pet sitting & walking dogs for 3 years. Also, I worked in a specialty animal care clinic for over one year where I learned proper handling techniques, how to administer medicines, and how to read body language in dogs & cats. Overall, I love working with animals because they’re such loving creatures and I love to give them love back! I specialize in giving pets all the attention then need! Without any pets of my own, I am able to give as much time as needed to your fur family. I especially love helping to walk dogs, take your pet on an adventure to the park or beach, or just a quick drop-by visit for feeding, playing or cuddle time! I’m here for it all! Please reach out if you have questions. I hope to be in touch! As a pet care professional, I’m typically available from early morning (7am) to early evening (6pm), but can make exceptions when needed. I have a flexible schedule, although I prefer to book in advance. Please reach out within 2 weeks or sooner for needed pet care service(s). Without pets of my own I can give all of my attention to your furry loved one(s)! When I’m watching a pet in my apartment I allow them to roam free (with appropriate supervision), jump on the couch, and do whatever else I can to help make them feel right at home.
16. Angelita C.
“Angelita is a very caring, attentive, and loving pet parent who is kind to all animals she encounters. She treats her own dog like family and gives her exceptional care always. I wholeheartedly trust Angelita with my children and my fur child!”
