About: With over 25 years of experience caring for animals from horses to birds, cats and dogs, you can feel at ease knowing that your fur baby is in good hands. I have cared for senior animals and puppies. I was the main caregiver for 6 dogs and 2 horses while growing up in Colorado. Each new animal friend I meet will be treated like family. Feel free to ask me any additional questions.

“Paz was amazing! She took care of everything, that I asked her to do. Sent pictures during the visits. And my cat wasn’t meowing much after leaving him for 4 days, which is a huge win. Very happy with the results.”

“When my husband and I brought home our puppy, Bridget, our biggest concern was how she would be cared for while we’re at work. Alice and Trey alleviated any worries and then some! They are communicative, attentive, and treat Bridget like one of their own. I can go to work with total confidence and peace of mind that she is well cared for and enjoying fresh air, exercise, and socialization. They have been nothing short of a blessing for us as our pup grows!”

About: From walking my first childhood dog at 6 to caring for loved ones' dogs throughout my teens, I knew I loved pet care! I specialize in stubborn and/or hyperactive pups! I have walked dogs of all sizes and love getting to know each of their personalities. I am also an experienced photographer and would love to capture some frameable shots of your dog during a drop-in or walk! I have lived in San Diego for about 14 years now, so I am knowledgeable about all the best dog-walking trails/routes, especially in the Del Mar area! I can't wait to meet you and your pup :) I just graduated from UCLA and moved back home to San Diego, so I have a lot of newfound time on my hands! I am available throughout the day on weekdays and have no problems walking early in the morning or later at night. I recognize that all pets have different needs, wants, and personalities that warrant hyper-individualized care. I make specified folders for each dog I care for that list preferences, dos/dont's, and any other important information.

“Cary is a lifesaver!! She made sure my pets were taken care of when I was away at a wedding all day. Multiple check ins, plenty of photos, lots of cuddles given and she even got to spend time with my very shy cat. It is evident she cares seriously for your animals and provides the very best of care. She’s a very kind and sweet woman too! Thank you so much for helping me!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Being around animals has always been a big part of who I am, and I truly enjoy building trusting, loving relationships with the pets I care for. I’m a dedicated animal lover who adores both dogs and cats, and I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own, paying close attention to their individual needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or quiet companionship, I always provide patient, reliable, and attentive care. My goal is to give pet parents peace of mind and ensure their pets feel happy, loved, and well cared for at all times. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine, as I am fully available and able to dedicate my time and attention to caring for pets. This flexibility allows me to focus on each pet’s individual needs, including walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m able to adjust my schedule to match your pet’s routine and ensure they receive consistent, attentive, and loving care. I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible, whether they are in my home or in my client’s home. I make sure they are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of attention and affection. I pay close attention to each pet’s individual needs, personality, and comfort level to help them feel safe and relaxed. I also keep the environment clean and secure, follow any special instructions provided by pet parents, and always prioritize the pet’s safety and well-being. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away.

“Audrey is the best! She was so communicative and great with my dogs! I had such a peace of mind knowing she was there with them. She was so attentive and my dogs loved her!”

About: Hi! I’m Alexa and I am from San Diego, California. While growing up, I walked to school and stopping along the way to pet each and every dog we spotted. Eventually my family adopted one of our own, Marley, and from there on out she walked to school with us every day. My love for dogs only grew from there. I would pet sit my neighbors dog when needed (vacation, late from work, etc). Their dog loved to walk but had a hip problem so we had to make his walks shorter and have him wear doggie booties. I also volunteered at Helen Woodward Animal Shelter for a number of years. I’ve been taking care of pets since high school, throughout undergrad and currently while in graduate school! Since I don’t have the time for a pet of my own, I’m more than happy to help out with yours :) Currently studying for my doctorate of physical therapy boards exam so would love to have a study buddy or hang with your pets for walks! I have ample experience cat/dog sitting, and walking or running with dogs! It’s been great taking care of others pets, the best boost to my mood during a hard grad school program

About: I've taken care of aggressive dogs, dogs with special medical needs, and everything in between. I am reliable, communicative, and I love being with animals. As a teacher, I get summer vacations, so I have a free schedule to devote to petsitting. I'm available on weekdays and weekends, for short or long periods. I have experience taking care older dogs, and I'm also comfortable around dogs with behavioral problems. In every case, I'm attentive to the animal's needs.

“Great communication, on time, my pup loves Michelle, she has great energy, would hire again. Thank you 🙏”

About: I bring more than 25 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and other pets, along with the perspective of a lifelong pet owner. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else because I've been in your shoes. Unlike sitters who are away for most of the day, I work remotely as a licensed professional counselor, so I'm home throughout the day to provide companionship, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love. Your pet won't just be checked on—they'll have someone present and attentive. My professional background has also strengthened the qualities that matter most in pet care: patience, reliability, communication, and the ability to understand individual needs. Every pet has a unique personality, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I treat every pet like one of my own because I know they're family. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in loving, capable hands. As a licensed professional counselor who works remotely from home, I have the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care throughout the day. My schedule allows me to accommodate walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of one-on-one attention, ensuring your pet isn't left alone for extended periods. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, and I love building relationships with each pet's unique personality. Whether your furry friend needs an energetic walk, a cozy companion while you're away, or simply someone to keep their routine consistent, I'm happy to provide loving, dependable care that gives you peace of mind. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or yours, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and personality so I can provide care that's as consistent as possible with what they're used to. I provide fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, exercise, and plenty of affection and companionship. I also pay close attention to their behavior, comfort, and overall well-being, making sure they receive the attention they need while you're away. When pets stay in my home, they'll enjoy a clean, comfortable environment with plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. My apartment community features beautiful walking trails, multiple walking paths, convenient pet waste stations, and a dog park all within walking distance, making it easy to provide frequent walks, outdoor time, and plenty of mental and physical stimulation. My goal is for every pet to feel happy, relaxed, and right at home while you're away.

About: I bring personalized, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I have experience with puppies, including crate training and potty breaks, as well as senior dogs who need gentle walks, medication, or a little extra patience. I focus on creating a calm, comfortable environment whether it's playtime, training, or just companionship, so your pet feels safe and loved while you're away. I genuinely love spending time with animals. I structure my weekends around walks, feedings, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I make sure your pet’s routine stays consistent and stress-free. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I follow your pet’s routine closely: mealtimes, walks, play, and any medications or special care. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep everything clean and secure. If your pet is with me, they’ll enjoy a calm, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. My goal is to make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible for both you and your pet.

“Thank you Brooke for dropping in on the boys today. The pics were super sweet!”

About: Hello! My name is Cecelia and I am so excited to get to know you and your pet! Growing up, I have always had a dog in my house and all of my extended family members have pets as well. I love going to parks and finding exciting and fun places. I love taking walks and am able to handle any sized pet. I have my own transportation so errands are not a problem. When not at work, my schedule is very flexible and I am a very easy going person. I work in biotech M-F and have weekends off. I will always send pics of your fur baby and as many updates as you’d like! I have a mini goldendoodle (30lbs) named Ollie who is such a love bug and gets along with any sized dog. Cant wait to meet your fur baby :) M-F I work in office for about 9 hours a day and am home no later than 4pm most days. When home, I love to take my dog on walks around the neighborhood or take him to a park. On the weekends, I bring my dog to get coffee with me and we take a walk on the beach. I love being as active as I can with my dog and would love for your pet to join us! I provide a safe, calm, and enriching environment with plenty of exercise, attention, and supervision. I live in a dog-friendly condo community directly across from a park, so dogs enjoy regular walks, potty breaks, and outdoor time throughout the day. We also take neighborhood walks on the many nearby sidewalks, and sometimes stroll through One Paseo for new sights and smells (with owner approval). On weekends, I’m typically home, so pets receive lots of companionship and aren’t left alone for long periods. When I do run errands, I often bring dogs along if we’re visiting pet-friendly places. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and cared for while keeping their routine as close to home as possible.

“Oh wow! On top of already being a wonderful sitter with drop-in visits, there was an emergency (saw on my pet cam) at my place when our litter-robot malfunctioned :( Texted Caitlin last minute and she immediately came over that same day to try to fix it. When fixing didn’t work, she also went out of her way to go to the store and bought a litter box when the litter-robot stayed broken. She’s seriously AMAZING! Thank you so much for your time and effort, Caitlin! Truly recommend her as a sitter!!”
