Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Oak Park, San Diego, CA

About: I've been around pets all my life, and have watched my parents puppy on multiple occasions. I treat all pets as my own, with love! I work from home Monday through Friday so my schedule is very open. I'm only away in the evenings for a couple of hours for my sons muay thai practice. I have a home with a big fenced backyard for your pups to run around and enjoy. I only have 1 senior cat that keeps to himself.

About: I have 10 plus years experience with dogs, I have 2 fur babies who always bring me joy. I have loved animals from a very young age and treat them with love, kindness and respect. With my own 2 pups I cook, clean, play, get them to their vet appointments, clean their teeth, make sure they are groomed regularly. I treat my fur babies like they are literally my children, this is the same treatment your fur babies will get from me. I am available Monday - Friday from 4pm - 8pm and weekends upon requests. Would love the opportunity to work together and build a relationship. I currently am only offering either dog walks or drop in visits. I am not able to care for pets in my home, although that can change in the future.

“Yay!!! Thank you Yesenia! It’s great to see that Busby(tabby) even came out from hiding in the bedroom to eat!”

“April took fantastic care of our two young kitties. She was responsive and agreed to meet with us before we went out of town. Our cats took to her instantly and she sent plenty of pictures of playtime and feedings while we were away. We really appreciate the care that she provided.”

“I can always count on Dee to take care of (and spoil) my cat! When my travel plans changed at the last minute, she was flexible and accommodating.”

About: I have years of experience with pets, both in my personal life and at my hometown animal shelter as a dog walker and “kitty cuddler.” There, I specialized in walking the largest and most challenging dogs, whether they were shy, nervous, or reactive, and I learned how patience and calm energy can build trust with even the toughest pups. Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with german shepherds, which gave me a special love for big dogs and the confidence to handle strong or energetic breeds. Beyond dogs and cats, I’ve also cared for chickens, ducks, pigs, goats, and even horses while living on a farm — so no animal is too big or too small! I’m comfortable with everything from puppies to seniors pets who need a little extra patience and gentleness. What sets me apart is not only my experience but my genuine love and respect for every animal’s unique personality. I treat each pet as if they were my own, and I pride myself on being reliable, compassionate, and attentive to their needs. Whether your dog loves long adventurous walks or your cat just needs extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I am a student and barista so my schedule changes daily. Unfortunately Rover’s schedule settings didn’t allow for super specific times so here is a more in depth look: - Weekdays I am mostly available in the morning - Wednesdays I am consistently available after 5pm * Friday’s I am consistently available throughout the day!! I think of my own pets as my babies, so I will treat yours the same. It is the highest honor to be trusted with a member of your family, and your pets’ safety and well being is my number one priority!

“Tara took care off my girl very well while I was on vacation. She is a long haired Persian cat that needs extra care such as eye cleaning and hair brushing and Tara did an excellent job with it. She was very communicative and sent a lot of detailed info and photos to ease my worries. I highly recommend Tara to all pet parents.”

“Thank you Ana for taking care of my boys during the busy holiday weekend. I appreciate that you were able to step up and cover an extra day when my flight was canceled as part of the Southwest meltdown.”

“Tori was great! She dropped in daily to check on our dogs, feed them and have them go potty while I was doing long stretches of work with my husband out of town. She was communicative, respectful, and took some great pictures of our pups. We will be booking again!”

About: I treat every pet like my own, with love and patience, and respect for their unique needs. I can adapt to each pet’s personality and comfort level. I’m also a great communicator, so you will always get updates and photos while you’re away. I’m currently working at home, so I have plenty of time to play or take care of your pets. I also have a car, so I can travel too. I live in a clean, pet-friendly townhome that’s hazards free, making it a safe and cozy space for pets. Just outside is a part and hiking trail, great for daily walks and fresh air. I stick closely to each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, and any medication needs. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I help them feel comfortable in their familiar surroundings while keeping everything clean. I know how important trust is, so I stay in regular contact with updates and photos to give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have 13 years of experience raising my little Bella. I got her at 19 I’m 32 now and she’s has developed into a shy but feisty, playful , rambunctious and healthy baby. Through our development I’ve learned how to walk, feed, bath, and take care of over all health. I’ve also learned how to spot when she’s unwell, trying to communicate when she needs or want something, and when to give her space. I have no professional experience, but have grown to specialize in handling anxious / fearful dogs and the barkers of our society if and when they’re comfortable around me. I have a full time job Monday - Friday and am a part time student . My homework load is pretty light so I usually have weekends available and my dog likes to go with me places so if the client is comfortable with her around I’d love to bring her to work with me! I live in an apartment so hosting all types of dogs would be difficult. if I am at a clients home I will treat as if it my own by mankind sure the dog is comfortable, had water , fed at his/ hers regular time, play with them and make sure I’m making the most of our time together to bond so both the client and dog I can build that trust over time.

“We booked drop ins and doggy day care with Taylor multiple times before and we are always happy with her! She follows instructions, provides great pictures, and is on time. She takes great care of our pets. Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible sitter.”
