About: I used to love volunteering at animal shelters then cared for my Doberman. Also would help my brother by watching his Rottweiler and husky from time to time. I only work from about 7am to 12pm during the week and home the weekends so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. There is lots of grass areas in my neighborhood and love playing with animals. If your pet is crate trained I have no problem following the rules you have in place for your pets. I also have the space available for a crate or anything your pet may need.

About: I believe that it is important to adapt to each dog's individual personality and preferences when caring for them. I have had experience all my life with my own, and family, pets of all shapes and sizes and can tell you for sure, one size does not fit all lol. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats so I'm confident in my ability to handle anything they throw at me. I'd love to get to know your pet as well :) I work from home so I am highly flexible and can fit your pet in my day at any time for your requested activities, or lack thereof haha I have pets at home, so if your pet prefers not making friends at this time, I can drop by or stay with your pet at their home!

About: I currently have 3 cats and I’ve had two dogs of my own in the past who I adopted and loved deeply, and they taught me the importance of patience, routine, and gentle care. I’m comfortable with cats and dogs of all sizes and personalities and truly enjoy building trust with each pet. I work full time fully remote during the week which gives me flexibility for lots of day time loves and pets and letting outside. I also love to go on walks on my hour lunch and long walks at mission beach during the weekend! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and routine instructions, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, clean environment. I provide gentle care, close supervision, and regular updates with photos and messages so you always feel confident your pet is safe, loved, and well cared for!
About: I have owned many dogs and even have fostered some! I work part time at a doggy daycare where I look forward to learning about each dogs personality.

About: I've always had family pets my whole life, from gerbils to pigs. I have a dog and a cat and they are my bestest friends! I taught my dog when I got him to walk on a leash, sit, stay, ignore squirrels and other animals, speak, lay down, hugs. He's sweet and a good excitable boy. I have experience dressing pet wounds and feeding medications. All animals deserve respect and patience no matter their size or temperament. I have a flexible schedule and am a reliable sitter. My availability is quite open so I have plenty of time and energy to love and care for your precious animals. I can assure you I will be respectful of your home and your beloved pets while making drop in visits. It is your space and I am just a guest making sure to honor the pets in their space.

About: Having lived with animals for over 30 years, I have a lifelong love of animals. I have experience caring for a variety of animals from cats and dogs, to reptiles and small mammals. It is incredibly rewarding to see how my love and care positively impacts the animals I care for! I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your pet in someone else's care. My time will be dedicated to ensuring that your animal is comfortable and cared for during your time away. Since my partner and I work from your home, your animals will always have someone with them. You will also receive regular updates via text so you never have to worry. I am also happy to accommodate any special requests related to care. To ensure safety, vaccinations and flea medication must be up to date for cats and dogs. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I can adjust my routine as needed based off your pet's needs. For dog walking and drop-ins, I can come to your home up to twice a day. Boarding: Dogs are primarily kept inside. Dogs are walked in the morning and evening and given bathroom breaks throughout the day. Playtime outside in the backyard is supervised. Food is divided up into three meals a day. Cats are strictly kept inside. Cats have access to multiple litter boxes that are cleaned daily. Amenities include scratching posts, cat trees, and bedding. You will receive an update each day on how your pet is doing.

About: With years of experience in dog care, I’ve had the joy of looking after pups of all breeds and personalities. I’m well-versed in giving each dog the love, attention, and exercise they need, while also ensuring their health is a top priority. I’m comfortable administering medications, whether it’s routine care or something more specific, so you can rest assured your furry friend is in safe, capable hands. Taking care of my pets is a regular part of my day and week. I make sure they eat, groom, and get exercise on schedule. Whether it's walking them in the morning, playing with them in the evening, or giving them cuddles before bedtime, I always prioritize their needs. At home or at my clients' places, I make sure pets have everything they need. That means feeding them, giving them water, and playing with them. I also clean up after them and give them lots of love and attention to keep them happy.

About: I’m a college student who grew up surrounded by dogs and currently misses my two dogs at home more than anything. I’ve done extensive pet sitting and dog walking over the years, and caring for dogs has always come naturally to me. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m patient, attentive, and love making sure every dog gets the exercise, care, and affection they deserve. I stay active and enjoy getting outside, so dog walking fits perfectly into my daily routine. My class schedule allows flexibility, and I’m reliable about showing up on time and giving each dog a full, quality walk. I care for pets with attention, patience, and respect for their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walking routes, medication needs, and any specific preferences your pet has. During visits, I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, bathroom breaks, playtime, and affection, while also keeping the home clean and secure. I’m very observant of behavior and energy levels, and I always prioritize safety on walks by using proper leashes, being aware of surroundings, and tailoring each walk to the dog’s age and activity level. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel confident and informed while they’re away.

I help pet parents reclaim their time with stress-free pick ups and drop offs, to liberate precious time and/or vacation schedules, so inquire for your boarding/daycare- pick up/dropoff needs.

About: What sets me apart is my active lifestyle and genuine love for animals. I run with my dog every morning, enjoy outdoor adventures, reinforce basic commands, and provide patient, attentive care. As a new sitter, I’m reliable, eager to learn, and committed to treating every pet like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work only three days a week (Saturday, Sunday, and Monday), so I’m fully available and flexible Tuesday through Friday. I stay very active, enjoy daily exercise, and have plenty of time to give pets consistent attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the week. When caring for pets in my home, I provide close supervision and a safe environment. I have a small yard and always keep a close eye on dogs during potty breaks. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain their normal schedule, and make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times.
