Pet Sitting Memorial

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for multiple pets, including helping with feeding routines, walks, play, medications when needed, and creating a calm, safe environment for them. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important consistency and trust are when someone is leaving their pet in another person’s care. My schedule is very flexible since I work and attend school online from home. That allows me to be present with pets throughout the day and provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with a secure enclosed yard and a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I currently have a friendly cat and create a safe, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed.

About: I’ve always loved being around dogs and caring for animals. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and look after their pets while they were away. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and happy while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and reliable transportation. I’m available most days of the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment for pets at all times. I have a fenced yard and always pay close attention during walks, feeding, and playtime to make sure pets are comfortable and secure. I also understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, so I’m patient, attentive, and respectful of each owner’s routine and instructions.

“Jessica was a great sitter! Always sending pictures and updates when she stopped by and was very flexible with the key drop off. Pickles actually came out to hang with her when she stopped by, which is huge, so I know she was very loving with her. Would absolutely book Jessica again and recommend her for any cat sitting!”

“Denise watched Owen after a long weekend and provided photo and videos during the visit and Owen was chatty and well-taken care of when I got home! I’d recommend Denise to take care of your pets!”

About: I have many years of hands-on experience caring for dogs at every stage of life, from energetic puppies learning the basics to senior pups who need a little extra patience, attention, and TLC. I’m comfortable reinforcing basic puppy training, including potty and crate routines, leash manners, and basic commands, and I’m happy to follow whatever training methods you use at home. I also have plenty of experience with senior dogs and understand the importance of adjusting walks, playtime, and daily routines to their individual mobility, energy level, and needs. I’m experienced in caring for multiple pets at once and managing different personalities, feeding schedules, walks, and routines. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone else; they’re part of the family and I’ll always treat them with the same patience, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I’m currently training and teaching jiu jitsu classes which allows me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with and care for your pets. Im able to build my schedule around your pets specific needs or energy levels and love going for little adventures to the park, beach, or where ever your pets favorite spot is! I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m clean, tidy, and mindful of your space while making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their normal routine. For overnight or multi-night stays, my dog Lola does need to accompany me. She is a sweet, senior Rat Terrier who is accustomed to being around other pets. I typically provide daily photos and updates but am happy to provide whatever makes you comfortable in knowing your pet is in good hands.

“Absolutely wonderful sitter for our cat! Wilhelmina warmed up to Kalista quickly and loved the snuggles. Kalista is very communicative and took care of things.”

“Monica was great! She followed our instructions perfectly. She was on time, took good care of our cats and was very communicative. We will definitely use her again.”

“Vanessa is the G.O.A.T.! I was worried about leaving my older dog behind for five days, as her only interest in life besides food is ME. The dog and I have a pretty codependent relationship. But Vanessa was not only super responsible with visits, walks, and food, I could see in videos that my dog was warming up to her and even looking forward to seeing her. Vanessa kindly sent me lots of reassuring photos and videos, which made a big difference. And on return my dog looked calm and healthy. Vanessa's care made all the difference. She's fantastic. THANK YOU VANESSA!”

About: Hi, I'm Tennille, a caring and compassionate dog lover. I will treat your dog like it is my own. I live one block from Golden Hill Park. I'm available for walks or a play in the park. Unlimited cuddles available. I’m reliable, responsible and easy going. I don’t mind dogs on the furniture. I don’t currently have a dog of my own so I can give all my attention to your pet(s). I live in apartment with a small patio which dogs love to sunbathe on. I am also open to coming to your house/apartment if you or your pet feel more comfortable. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s). I work from home so I can dog sit during the day. I live near two parks, Golden Hill park is a couple blocks. Also, close is South Park with the backside of Balboa Park and the Grape Street dog park. I have a flexible schedule where I can take walks as needed. As far as the weekends, I spend my time with dog-loving people and so a lot of the time we only go places that welcome dogs. We are so lucky to live in San Diego and have such great weather to enjoy patios. I treat all pets like they are my own. I would respect the owner's instructions for care. I would also respect any home I’m in like it is my own.

“Paige was great! We came to San Diego with our pups on a trip and wanted to spend extra time away from our airbnb. She gave them some company and let them out. She sent me pictures while she was there and made us feel comfortable being away from our babies longer. Thank you!!”

About: I puppy-sit for my sister's 2yo maltipoo often, I've even helped training him and teaching him certain tricks. Meso on my profile is my sister's dog, I don't have a pet at the moment - I created his info under my account to help my sister when she needs a dog sitter. So my space is pet-free. I also used to have a dog when I was younger, I love dogs! I just came back from LA from helping puppy-sit for my sister's dog for 2 weeks. When I visit family in LA, I am often helping take care of her dog and I love it so much! I feed the pet based on the pet's schedule, provide any medication that may be needed, walk the dog at least once and certainly make sure cleaning up after the pet! Play time is also important, giving the pet treats that are vouched for by the owner. Also making sure emergency contacts and vet info is provided for emergency situations.

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats and small pets since childhood and have 7 years of formal pet/house-sitting experience in San Diego, including daily walks, medication administration, and senior-pet care. I’m calm, punctual, and used to following detailed routines and owner instructions while keeping homes clean and secure. As a certified calisthenics trainer and wellness coach I bring stamina for long walks, reliable energy for active dogs, and a respectful, low-impact presence in homes; I’m happy to provide references and a video call before booking. My schedule is flexible, and I can give pets consistent care throughout the day. I’m usually available mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, with enough time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. I prioritize a calm, clean, and safe environment for every pet. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, keep routines consistent, respect home rules, and make sure pets feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for.

About: I have some pet care experience, particularly with puppy training and senior pet care. I understand their unique needs, ensuring they receive the right attention. My dedication to providing personalized care and building relationships with pets and their owners makes me a great choice for pet sitting. Pet care is an important part of my day. I have flexible hours during the week and weekends, so I can take good care of your pets. You can count on me to give them the attention they need. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, safety is my top priority. I keep the environment clean and remove any hazards. I follow routines for feeding and playtime to keep pets happy. I also stay in touch with pet owners to ensure I'm meeting their needs and preferences.

“Tahniiyah was very communicative and responsive to the needs of my senior cat. It was clear that she wanted to ensure I had peace of mind while I was away from home.”

“Armando is awesome! From the time we made contact, communication was great. My cat, Buddy, really enjoyed his time, and we are very grateful for Armando's commitment to Buddy's health and to the safety of our home. The first couple of days Buddy wasn't feeling well -- Armando and I reviewed the symptoms, made adjustments to food and medication, and within 24 hours we had turned a good corner! I got photos, activity reports, and we had a few phone calls at my request to make sure Armando had what he needed to keep my spoiled kitty happy :-). Thank You Armando!”

About: Proud parent of a rescue. I have taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 13 years old. I am available to walk, run or care for all types of dogs. I am currently working part time and available from 11:30 . I am available to pick up dogs for walks or host them if needed. Provide a comfortable and safe environment. Maintain a consistent feeding schedule. Take dogs for daily walks and outdoor playtime. Set up designated play areas for pets. Keep their water bowls filled and clean. Provide appropriate toys for mental stimulation.

About: I specialize in caring for calm, well-trained, highly independent pets while maintaining a clean, organized, and well-cared-for home. My goal is to follow your pet’s established routine and provide consistent, dependable care while you’re away. I’m a great fit for households with pets that are well-mannered, comfortable with their routines, and able to settle independently. I focus on maintaining the environment your pets are already familiar with, ensuring they remain safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout your absence. As a full-time traveling house sitter that has cared for 25+ homes, pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I intentionally schedule my days around each pet’s established feeding, exercise, play, and care routines while maintaining the home as if it were my own. Because this is my full time focus, I’m able to provide consistent attention, adapt to each household’s preferences, and ensure pets receive dependable care throughout my stay. House and pet sitting gives me the ability to experience new environments while maintaining structure and consistency in my daily life. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and presence of pets in the home. I like learning their personalities, how different animals and breeds interact with their environment, and what helps them feel comfortable and at ease. I also enjoy play, interaction, and building a calm, steady presence with them during a sit. I provide structured, routine based care including feeding, walking, playtime, enrichment, and oral medication when it can be given with ease and cooperation. I value calm, stable home environments with clear instructions and consistent routines. I do best in well maintained, organized homes that are clutter free, odor free, clean, and with minimal excess pet hair buildup. I also appreciate the use of air purifiers when available. While I work remotely and am primarily at home, my work includes focused independent periods, and I check in on pets throughout the day as part of their routine care. A video call (Zoom or Google Meet) is required prior to confirming a sit to ensure a mutual fit for both home and pet care expectations. I appreciate homeowners who are familiar with my profile and come prepared with any questions as well. I am not a fit for: • Highly Velcro pets requiring constant proximity or attention • Aggressive behavior toward humans or other animals • Physical force based handling, training, or behavior modification responsibilities • Daily intensive mess cleanup or unmanaged accidents • Co-sleeping (pets must sleep independently in their own space outside the bedroom) • Frequent last minute changes, unclear schedules, or unstable routines I value clear communication, respectful, hospitable, and well structured sits.
