Highlights
Pet care experience
Trusted Dog Walker and Watcher
Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always been a big part of my world. I had two schnauzers and a pit-lab growing up, and since my parents both worked full-time, I took on a lot of the daily care—walks, feeding routines, and making sure everyone got plenty of attention. As I got older, I started helping family and neighbors with their pets, and during COVID I nannied full-time for two children and a young puppy, which really taught me how much patience and structure puppies need. All throughout college, I worked through Rover and had the chance to care for so many different dogs—small, large, senior, and everything in between. I still watch my aunt’s older dog when she travels, so senior care is something I’m familiar with as well. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog, and I’m happy to answer any questions you might have!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’m based on the Mesa in Santa Barbara and live in a house with a spacious backyard, which gives dogs plenty of room to relax and play. I’m also within walking distance of Douglas Preserve, Mesa Lane Beach, and Elings Park—three ama zing spots for walks, fresh air, and exploring!
Ratings and reviews
Faith is a fantastic sitter! She's responsive, thoughtful and got my pup out for multiple adventures- what more can you ask for?
Faith was great! One of my dogs didn’t even want to leave. She took very good care of both of my dogs
Faith is both responsible and trustworthy, two qualities that I am looking for when trusting my fur babies to someone else's care. She is compassionate and caring with our dog and our cat. And they adore her!

Schedule
I currently work from home most of the time and only have the occasional serving shift in the evenings. I also live with three roommates who absolutely love dogs, so your pup will still have company and comfort if I need to step out for a couple of hours.
