About: Back home in Boston, I regularly pet-sat for my neighbors, building trust and learning how to meet each dog’s unique needs. As a UCSD student, I bring that same level of responsibility, attention, and care to every dog I look after. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or just cuddling, I treat every dog like my own! I am currently a student and an athlete, in between studying and practice I have lots of free time that I would love to spend with your dogs! At my clients home, I make sure to follow their routines and house rules to keep things consistent and stress-free for the dog. I always ensure that the space is pet-proofed, keeping any hazards out of reach and providing secure, calm atmosphere. I make sure to always stay in close communication with pet parents, sending updates and photos so they can feel at ease knowing their dog is safe and happy.

“Second time with Kristen and she is the best. So responsible and such an animal lover. I feel so relaxed when I’m away knowing she is with my babies”

“McKenna followed our detailed instructions for our senior dogs and helped out with house sitting chores. She was a great communicator. Our dogs were happy and our home was better than we'd left it. We'd be happy to have her back again!”

“Rory took good care of my dog and house and I would hire him again. He also faced some unexpected challenges upon arrival re: entry instructions, and was very gracious about handling that situation.”

“Shelby was amazing! This was our first time using Rover and we were so pleased. Shelby responded very quickly to all messages sent. She scheduled a meet and greet within a couple of days. She spent one night with our 2 pups and they were so sad to see her leave. We will definitely be booking Shelby in the future!”

About: I have been raised around dogs and cats and reptiles my whole life, I've always had a connection to animals and their individual character. I also am a cat dad and he's my angel boy, I've had plenty of dogsitting and cat sitting experience in my life. I work a part time job at a cafe, so I'm mostly working from 8am - 1pm or 1-5pm. I have alot of free time in the week and weekends after work. Surely can be flexible! I have a kitty that's mostly free to roam at my place, but I have a fenced backyard if needed to maybe have your animal at my place! I am flexible to however you want me to care for your animal, just let me know and we'll make it work.

“My parents used Katherine very happily for their last two dog sitting needs and so we decided to do the same for our trip, and Katherine was great for us in every manner! She’s a very responsive and clear/transparent communicator, and showed her experience by asking the right questions up front. She is very obviously enthusiastic about the dogs she cares for! She was very flexible on timing, so our dog wasn’t left alone too long during the start and end of the day. She was also good about sending daily or near daily updates and photos to put our minds at ease. Last but not least she left the house just as we left it (or perhaps even better!). Would 100% recommend!”

Michael R.

“Lydia did an incredible job caring for our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of the country for nearly three weeks. She kept everyone happy and healthy, stayed in great communication, and left the house clean. She’s caring, responsible, and completely trustworthy- we will definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of my boxer dog for 12 years and have been taking care of my cats for 10 years. Experience with dog sitting/walking.

About: I’m a San Diego local offering dependable dog walking and pet sitting with plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I love staying active and spending time outdoors, so your dog will always get engaging walks and quality playtime. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I’m comfortable following specific routines, feeding schedules, and instructions. I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to spend real one-on-one time with pets instead of rushed visits. I treat every pet like my own and always make communication with owners a priority, so you’ll get consistent updates and peace of mind. Whether your pet needs a quick walk, extended care, or just some extra attention, I’m here to help. I am available all five weekdays, although have another job that compromises my schedule during the weekends making me unavailable during that time frame. ~ I prioritize safety and consistency when caring for pets in my home or a client’s home. I follow all routines closely, supervise pets at all times, secure leashes during walks, and provide calm, attentive care in clean, pet-friendly spaces.

“Tristan was very communicative during his stay w/ my pup. Sent pictures, took her on walks, and showed her all the love she asked for (she’s a stubborn husky). If there was anything he was unsure of he immediately messaged me to get clarification. Friendly and active, I will def be booking w/ him again.”

Ambria E.

“Karin was an absolute gem! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ She exceeded all expectations as a house and cat sitter for my two cats. From start to finish, she was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. Not only did she keep my apartment looking immaculate, but she also went above and beyond to ensure my cats were happy and healthy. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Karin is not just a great sitter, but also a genuinely nice person. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of pet or house sitting services!”
