Pet Sitting Mount Hope

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.

“Jazmin came by to meet Clover before dropping in to watch her and she was super sweet. We instantly hit it off and felt comfortable leaving my kitty under her care. I would definitely book with her again.”

“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!”

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.

“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.”

“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 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.

“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.”

Corynn F.

“Shannon was great with Copper! She was timely, communicated well, and took a lot of photos. I would trust her with my boy anytime.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have owned and cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. I’ve had several rescue dogs over the years and understand that every animal has its own personality, routine, and comfort level. I have years of experience walking dogs, caring for pets while their people are away, and have even traveled across the country with dogs—so I’m very comfortable adapting to different environments and situations. I’m a mature, dependable and nurturing caregiver who understands how important it is to trust the person caring for a member of your family. My professional background also includes working as a certified Home Care Aide, which requires a criminal background check, and I’m a college graduate. I’m responsible, communicative, attentive to instructions, and will treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet genuine one-on-one attention. I believe pet care should be more than simply stopping by to feed or walk them. I’ll spend quality time playing, exercising, interacting, giving treats (with your permission!), and providing plenty of love and cuddles. My goal is for your pet to feel happy, calm, comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort and normal routine will always come first. I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, treats and household routines. I’m attentive to changes in behavior and will spend meaningful time with your pet rather than rushing through a visit. I’ll also keep you updated so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, getting plenty of attention, and being genuinely cared for in their own home.

About: Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life. I’ve had experience caring for many different types of animals over the years, but dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I absolutely love spending time with them and building strong, trusting bonds with each dog I meet. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have four dogs of my own—two Chihuahuas, one Pomsky, and one Chow Chow—so I’m very familiar with caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from young puppies who need extra attention and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require patience, gentle care, and specialized routines. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your dog is high-energy and loves walks and playtime or prefers a calm and relaxing environment, I can provide the individualized care they need. I also have experience working with dogs who experience anxiety, separation anxiety, nervousness, and other unique behavioral needs. I understand that every dog is different, and I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and preferences so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive, and compassionate care while treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, medication administration, or simply keeping your pup company, you can trust that they’ll receive plenty of love and attention in my care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! A little about me! I earned my Associate’s degree in Behavioral and Social Sciences and am currently continuing my education to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology. My studies have helped me develop strong skills in understanding behavior, patience, communication, and building positive relationships—qualities that I bring into every interaction with the pets I care for. I also work part-time as an in-home caregiver, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, compassion, and attentiveness. Because of my flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pup and ensure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I am available most mornings throughout the week, with the exception of Thursdays and Sundays, and I look forward to providing a safe, loving, and dependable experience for both you and your furry family member. Your pup’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of grass and space to run, play, explore, and enjoy the outdoors safely. My home provides a loving, pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay. I also have four extremely friendly dogs of my own—two Chihuahuas, one Pomsky, and one Chow Chow—who love meeting new furry friends. They are well-socialized and enjoy playing, making them great companions for dogs who enjoy interaction and socialization. Of course, I always pay close attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level to ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, outdoor adventures, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, they’ll be treated like family and receive plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me.

About: Growing up wanted a dog but my parents allow it so did the next best thing which was dog sit for my neighbors. So I have many years of experience sitting all types of dogs. Love the company of a wonderful dog. There’s nothing like the energy from a happy pup that loves to play. I just started training for a half marathon I’ll be running in March, so if your dog is used to or if you want me get him/her active, i would be able to do so. I’m working from home currently so I have a flexible schedule and would love nothing more than spend some quality time with your precious pup. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your amazing pup.

“Rosa was fantastic with my dog and cat!! My dog isn’t the best with new people, but I appreciated her coming to do a meet and greet first. She was patient with him and built trust and he was super excited when she came to walk him! She did great and I appreciate her communication. She’s also super sweet in general and I will definitely book her again :)”
