“Leah is such a delightful and caring pet sitter! She watched my two cats and was so attentive to their needs and routines. I really appreciated all of her thoughtful questions during our meet and greet, and the care and love with which she treated my babies. It was clear they were comfortable and happy with her, which made me the same. Already booking her again for my next trip!”

“Rhys was the first ever professional pet sitter I’ve ever hired, as I’ve been too afraid in the past to leave my pets with people who aren’t family. He was kind, professional, sent me daily pictures and updates and best of all my sweet girl LOVES him. Torta is usually very shy and cautious with people but warmed to him quickly. Rhys was flexible when I extended my trip as well and it was a huge relief knowing he was caring for her. I will be hiring him again (if he agrees to have us!!!)”

About: Hi! I'm Jonathan, a San Diego local. I've owned dogs for more than 20 years. The first dog that was all my own was Parker, a corgi-beagle mix. I got him at 8 weeks old and cared for him until he passed at age 9. He loved spending time at dog beaches, dog-friendly restaurants, and breweries. Prior to Parker I had Alley, a rescued mini poodle mix. I cared for her into her adult and senior years, until she reached about 19 years old. My years with Parker and Alley taught me that every dog has their own pace, but they all appreciate structure. They also taught me the importance of paying attention and getting to know each dog. Dogs can't tell you when something's off, so small changes in appetite and behavior matter. I like to be playful and goofy with dogs (I talk to them like people), but I also know it's my job to make sure they feel safe and know what to expect. I will follow your established routine and rules, and can also help reinforce good behaviors. What you and your fur baby can expect: - Reliability. My schedule is flexible and mostly open on weekdays, so I can do midday walks, last-minute drop-ins, and stays of any length, including single nights. If plans change, I tell you right away. - Clear communication. You'll get a photo and a quick note after every visit so you always know how your dog is doing. - Walks that are more than a potty break. I like getting outside and exploring new routes and spots, and I keep control of the walk so it stays safe. - Experience beyond walks. I've cared for dogs overnight, including week-long stays. I'm comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and every age in between. I'd love to do a meet-and-greet with you and your dog, so we can get comfortable before the first visit. Send me a message with your dog's name, age, and any quirks, and we can set it up! My schedule is flexible and mostly open on weekdays, so I can do midday walks and last-minute drop-ins. I can also spend a full day with your dog, at your home or out on adventures, whatever you approve and your dog would enjoy. I can care for your dog in your home or any other environment you approve, and I'll make sure they feel safe. I will follow any of your care instructions, ensure your home is secured (if applicable), and send a photo and note after every visit.
“Kayak is amazing. She took care of my 2 babies (kitties). She responds to inquiries immediately and took great care of my kids. I would definitely book again!”

“Rosie was very communicative and reliable from start to finish! Very professional and caring- I felt at ease knowing she had a handle on things while I was away from my cat! She sent lots of amazing photos. You can really just tell how much she loves animals 😻.”

About: I’ve gained hands-on pet care experience through managing the daily needs of my two diabetic Bichon Frises, including administering insulin, monitoring their diets, and staying alert to changes in their behavior and health. Alongside them, I care for a rescued tabby cat who serves as an emotional support animal, providing comfort while also needing gentle, consistent attention due to his background. This personal experience has taught me how to provide compassionate, medically attentive, and emotionally sensitive care to animals with unique needs. I have recently graduated from the University of Georgia with a Masters’ and work from home! I have a very flexible schedule, and am able to travel! I have experience pet sitting for animals of all different ability levels, including puppies to elderly dogs. By setting a routine that works for all animals of varying abilities, I am able to create a loving and safe environment!
“Kristin was great! I was initially hesitant about leaving my puppy with a stranger for drop offs but he immediately loved her and they seemed to have such a good time. I loved all the photos she sent of him!”

“Brook is absolutely wonderful! She is deeply caring and observant and took the time to absorb the peculiarities about my elder dog, Maya, before spending time with her. Brook picks up on and reports the little things - how active Maya was; whether she was in the mood to sleep or play; how many times she went potty. She also sent pictures and updates and was very responsive. 10 out of 10!!”


About: Aloha! I’m May, your go‑to dog sitter who treats every pup like family. Located right in Mission Valley off the 163 freeway (by Fashion Valley Mall) I’m based right here in San Diego with a cozy, dog‑friendly home, a fully gated yard, and — pup favorite alert — the trolley literally stops at my house, which means built‑in excitement, enrichment, and endless tail‑wagging entertainment. I specialize in young puppy dog care, senior dog care, and helping dogs feel safe, confident, and loved while their humans are away. Whether your pup needs structure, patience, medication reminders, or just someone who understands their quirks, I’ve got them covered. I’m also a proud dog mom to Von, my Dachshund‑Terrier mix with main‑character energy. Also, it's important to note Von is NOT fixed. He’s friendly, social, and loves having new buddies over for sleepovers. Your dog will enjoy a calm, happy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and supervised outdoor time. With me, your pup gets: 🐾 A safe, gated yard for zoomies 🌞 Daily walks + enrichment 🐶 Puppy training support 💛 Senior dog patience + comfort 📸 Photo updates so you never miss a moment 🏡 A warm, clean, loving home environment 🎉 Trolley‑watching adventures (trust me, dogs LOVE this) I’m here to make your dog feel at home, keep their routine steady, and give you total peace of mind. When your pup stays with me, they’re treated like royalty — because that’s exactly what they deserve. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I work from home and have the flexibility to give each dog plenty of attention throughout the day. My home is spacious, calm, and fully fenced, so pups can safely explore, sunbathe, or play whenever they want. I take regular breaks to walk, train, or check in with the dogs, and I love incorporating enrichment into their day. The trolley even stops right at my home — a fun little highlight the dogs always get excited about. Because I’m home full‑time, your pup gets consistent supervision, affection, and a steady routine that keeps them happy and relaxed. Safety, trust, and comfort are the foundation of how I care for pets. Whether a dog stays in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, structured, and supervised environment where every pup feels secure. In my home: I have a spacious layout that allows dogs to relax, explore, and settle in without feeling overwhelmed. My yard is fully gated and secure, giving pups a safe space for outdoor time, sunbathing, and play. I work from home, so dogs are never left alone for long periods — they get consistent supervision, affection, and routine. I also keep doors latched, food stored safely, and use baby gates when needed to manage space and keep everyone comfortable. The trolley stops right at my home, which adds a fun enrichment moment the dogs genuinely enjoy.

“Leilani did some drop-ins for our dog Moxie as we were away for the evening for a special event. I loved the reports we got from her with updates and our dog loved her at the meet and great! Will definitely be rebooking.”

“Allison took such great care of our two dogs! We got updates and pictures consistently throughout our time away. We felt so comfortable on our trip knowing our babies were in good hands. Definitely will book with her again!! Thank you Allison!!”

“Jenya was so responsive, proactive about setting up a meet and greet and asked thoughtful questions in advance. When I got home my animals were happy as can be, thanks to her excellent care! She also took great, cute pics which helped when I was missing them! Highly recommend!”

“Evelyn is amazing!! She makes sure our dogs get quality play and takes the best pictures of them during her visits. It’s always a treat to see and hear how they did. She’s communicative, reliable, and the pups love her!!”

About: I’ve owned a female Rottweiler since I was 10 years old and I was responsible for training her, I taught her all the basic tricks and even taught her how to give me a fist pump. She was very tame and loved socializing with other dogs. After I moved out for college, I tended to my older sister’s two dogs, one medium sized and the other extra large. I would play fetch with them every time I visited and did some dog sitting for them as well. My mom recently got a small toy poodle which I love to play with whenever they come to visit. My experience with pet care is very diverse. I work well with all kinds of dogs and understand that they must be respected just as they respect us. Dog care specifically is important as walking or dog-sitting is important for the individual dog’s health. I love dogs! Love the fun that comes with taking care of them. Appreciate the work they put you through to take care of them :) I am currently in a gap between graduating college and getting onboarded for my new full time job and am looking to fill that time as well as get some cash flow. My schedule is primarily during the weekdays, Monday through Friday, from 11 am until 3 pm. My preferred care is dog-walking and the way I ensure safety and trust is by ensuring I can control the dog in order to keep them safe from any danger, ensuring the route I walk them is safe. I also emphasize accommodating the owners wishes when dog walking as they know their dog better and it’ll help not only the dog, but ease the owner and I as well.

About: Grew up around dogs and cats so I am very comfortable with both. I am very attentive and I always make sure my pets have everything they need. I love to go on walks so your dog will have plenty of exercise! I also understand that each dog/cat has their own special needs and I will do my absolute best to ensure that your dog is satisfied. I have a senior dog who can be wary of other dogs without proper intro, so I am happy to do an intro with her if you're okay with me bringing my dog to walks, or I'm also happy to just take your dog(s) by themselves! I currently work from home and have a fairly flexible schedule. I can stop by to check in on your pet whenever! I am also happy to stay in your home to pet sit, but I do have a senior dog and we would have to do a proper intro if that's the case. I do not have a yard or a big apartmemt space so I will just be doing home visits for check in/walks. When I am checking in, I will make sure to follow your instructions and make sure your pet feels loved!
“Janice was so great with our little dog Biscuit! She really took the time to address his needs while we were away and made sure he was happy and attended to. Her communication was spot on and made us feel very comfortable. I would recommend for sure!”


About: I have taken care of all sorts of animals since I was 12. I am an animal lover. I have always grown up with dogs in my life. I currently have 3 dogs with another one on the way. I pay extra attention to detail when it comes to certain types of breeds. I currently go to school Monday- Thursday 8-11 after that I am available until 1 from there I have work until 6. Early mornings do not bother be nor do late nights! I live in an apartment complex, while I do not have a yard I have plenty of grass and areas to walk around. Lot of interactive things such as squirrels and other wildlife along with people.
About: Hi there! 🐶 I’ve always been surrounded by dogs they’ve been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with Labradors and Schnauzers, I truly believe every dog has their own unique personality to love and care for. Whether your pup is a couch cuddler, a treat enthusiast, or an energetic explorer, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Big or small, shy or social, I adore them all! 🐾 I’m currently hybrid the days I’m home I have all the walk breaks I need and the days I’m in office I can take a walk during my breaks every 3-4hours. I’m in a big spacious apartment and have light coming in from all angles. There is a park nearby with lots of grass that I love to walk at. If your dog plays fetch they’ll love it!

I booked Andrea last minute for some drop-ins and Andrea DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! I will definitely book again in the future, she went above and beyond for the kitties and they warmed up to her almost immediately (they don’t really care for people). I appreciated the check-ins followed up with pictures 💚💕 Thank you Andrea!

Jake stepped in at the last minute when our other dog-sitting plans fell through, and we couldn’t have asked for a better fit! One of our dogs can be a handful for sitters, but Jake quickly won him over, and they had a great time together. He sent plenty of pictures and kept us updated throughout our trip, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’re so grateful for the care he gave our boys and can’t recommend him highly enough!

Tina was wonderful with our cat, Taco, over our lengthy vacation. They made sure he had adequate playtime & socializing - along with tending to our cat’s various robots. At our meet & greet, Tina took detailed notes & photos to make sure Taco got everything he needed while we were gone. That greatly reassured me. Pet sitting at our place was challenging - the community was handling repairs at the same time, but Tina handled the chaos well. They went above & beyond to run to the pet store after their visit & return to apply some medication. Thanks Tina!

I truly can’t recommend Grey enough. She is an absolute gem and one of those people you feel SO lucky to find on an app like this. She took AMAZING care of my two cats while I was traveling. I felt completely comfortable and at ease knowing they were left in her care. I’m admittedly a little over-the-top when it comes to my cats and their happiness and comfort 😂 and Grey knocked it out of the park. She is attentive, loving, communicative, and took care of them as if they were her own. Also - my cats ADORED her! Animals are excellent judges of character and my cats totally loved her. She shared many photos during each visit and it was clear that they felt extremely safe and happy. I already know they’ll be excited to see her again in the future! If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, thoughtful, and genuinely wonderful with animals, Grey is your person. I’m so happy I found her and will absolutely be reaching out to book her anytime I need to travel. Thank you, Grey!!! ❤️

Carmen was wonderful with Kiru. She was communicative from the start, checked in regularly, and sent so many photos (a lot of very cute ones) that I never had to wonder how my cat was doing. You can tell she has a lot of experience with animals, and she's just a really kind, attentive person. Kiru was clearly happy and well cared for. I'd recommend Carmen to anyone and will absolutely book her again.

Christine was amazing! She took great care of our two cats and kept us updated on them while we were gone. One of our cats has a medical need and she was more than capable of handling that and our young kitten with tons energy! I would recommend her to anyone. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would!

Carrie is an ABSOLUTE gem - we couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our pup. Carrie has helped watch Marnie twice and has great communication. She makes me feel so secure leaving our baby with her. I know she treats her as if she was her own. I will recommend Carrie to anyone looking for a reliable and kind pet sitter ! 10/10 no notes 😄

Steffen did an amazing job caring for my kitty girl. It was my first time leaving her with anyone other than family for more than a day, and I was "that" cat parent that left a list of just in case instructions. Steffen was kind & reassuring & followed them all to a T! I will definitely rebook if she'll have me!
