About: I've been a pet guardian all of my (long-ish) life and I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented — I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. I'm currently not working full time, so I have time to help you look after your animals. My dogs (springer spaniels) lived very long and happy lives, and now I have a solo cat at home. I am available to visit your animals in your home, take them for walks, clean up after them and play with them. I can't have overnights at the moment due to my own pet.
About: I love all critters, large and small. I have two large dogs which I have both trained. They are incredibly well behaved, but I know how to give them space to be rambunctious and playful. It’s so important for pets to have a safe space to be themselves and show their beautiful, unique personalities. I know how to work with senior and leash-aggressive dogs. Kitties are wonderful with minds of their own. I give them attention when they want it, but distance if not. They are cats after all! I can take care of fish too, as I have a tank of them in addition to my dogs. My schedule is extremely flexible! I walk my dogs in the morning, but I can adjust my walk time as needed. For overnights, my husband will take care of our fur babies. I start off with an introduction to you and your pet. Treats are a great way to start off on the right paw! I ensure your pet feels safe and gets to know me. I am caring and loving, and I also know how to give space to your furry one when they need it.
About: I’ve been taking care of cats and dogs since I was a kid. I also have been fostering cats and dogs for the past decade. I’ve taken care of animals with disabilities, seniors, and puppies / kittens :) I’m a photographer so my schedule is pretty free. Most days I am at home working on the computer, which makes it easy to spend time with your pups :) I’m a very loving pet sitter. I know basic training and will take them on really fun walks. They will also get all the cuddles!
“Ari is a gem. Great personality, grounded, responsible and kind. Dogs have a sixth sense. When my Sofi ran into the house to greet me after her walk to say I’m back she immediately returned to Ari for some rubs. I knew then I was totally comfortable giving my sweet girl’s care to Ari. Three walks done and many more planned. Thank you, Ari, for making Sofi’s life better. She loves her walks.”
“Meagan was reliable and gave Sammy good walks helping to give my parents a break from walking him. Will use Meagan again if my parents have another fall or need help with Sammy. Thx”
About: I’ve had experience working at a dog daycare which came with lots of responsibilities including dog watching, bathing, cleaning, and feeding- including administering medications. I currently work at an animal shelter where I handle dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, weight, and breeds. Using balanced training methods, I can also offer light training (puppy teething/mouthing, basic cues, some leash manners, resource guarding, engage/disengage with reactive pups, social bridging with shy ones). I’ve also worked with deaf, blind, and tripod doggos! I currently work a full time job 4 days a week with Sunday/ Monday/ Tuesdays off. Not available the rest of the week since I work long hours. Full honesty and transparency is the way to go! Direct communication is best to achieving the best service without any miscommunications. I’m typically a quiet person, and can provide a calm environment for your pet! Safety is a priority, I’m trained in recognizing dog/cat body language and behavior- recognize when they’re content, uncomfortable, shy, anxious.
About: I taken care of and trained my own dog, a sweet Pembroke Welsh Corgi. She has passed and now I want to continue spending time with pets. I am currently working full time but am available in the evenings and weekends. On the weekends I am available all day to assist with pet care. I can follow any instructions to keep your pet safe in your home. I take precautions and try to read body language if the pet does not feel secure.
About: I work full-time as a veterinary assistant, so I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. My experience has taught me how to recognize stress signals, safely handle pets, and provide calm, attentive care. As well as pet sitting for friends and family. I work full time Monday to Thursday until 6 PM. I am free on the weekends Friday to Sunday. I am willing and flexible to make sure owners and dogs have peace of mind when they need morning and night. Creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment is what I prioritize for any animal. I’ve handled different breeds and different sized dogs. I recognize behaviors and can see when a dog needs space or more patience. My experience helps me ensure to provide responsible care to give owners peace of mind.
About: I’ve taken care of fish, birds, turtles, cats, and dogs! Every animals is different with their feeding routine, exercise, temperament, I do my absolute best to ensure that all their needs are met the same way you do it to ensure you and your pet feel comfortable. I have worked for a dog trainer/boarder, so I am familiar with working with reactive dogs and following what they need and have taken care of lat least 5 pets on my own! My goal is to treat your loved one with the care and affection they deserve so that you know you made that right choice. I am a full time college student and have a part-time job. I’m available all day Tuesday and the weekend as well as the afternoon for Monday and Wednesday - Friday I have much experience taking care of pets in their own home and meeting their specific needs whether that be multiple medications in the morning and evening, making their food with some extra steps, or even making a mini fort for them before I leave the home to make them feel comfortable! I currently live with a slightly reactive dog so for the safety of everyone involved I do not board animals in my home.

About: Hello, my name is Chantal and I have always had a love for dogs and animals as a whole. As a kid I was raised in a home where we never once went without a dog in the home, so you could say I have a lifetime of experience with dogs. And as a fellow doggie parent I understand that the comfort of dogs always comes first. Though I don’t have career experience with pets, I have done dog sitting in the past for family friends which included a wide variety of breeds and different temperaments. Although I don’t have professional experience with dogs, I hope to give all dogs the same level of love and care that I have since I was a child. I currently work part-time in the evenings, which means I have most of the day to take care of my pets needs, including walks, feeding etc. As a dog walker I would love to offer that time to help take care of someone else’s pets needs for some good exercise and comfort. I currently live in a two bedroom apt with a balcony, but no backyard, so I always make sure to walk my own pets in a timely manner so they can have their potty breaks comfortably. I have access to a vehicle so I would apply this to any dog I visit to walk them, regardless of wether that live in an apartment, or a big house with a backyard.
About: I've walked, and taken care of my dog for eight years. What ive learned from taking care of my dog is learning how to take care of a dog with anxiety. This can be said for my brothers dog as well, as he also has anxiety, and Ive tooken care and walked him frequently. I'm very detail orientated with dogs, so that they feel comfortable and happy. So ify they need some kind of specific care, I will make it a priority. Im currently just going to Santa Barbara City College. I have college on Mondaya, Thursdays, asn Fridays from 10 to 3. Every other day is free, and evenings are free as well on college days. I live in a neighborhood with a huge community shared front yard. Very dog friendly. And live close to alot of fun locations for dogs to be walked in. Such as a huge park, and a beach right next to it, all walking distance from where I live.
About: I’m good with dogs. I’m also very patient and interactive with them. No longer have my own but I’ll treat your doggie like my own. I’m am currently working nights during the week so I have time in the morning for some walks or some hikes. Weekends schedule always changes. Previously I’ve dog sat and at the same time house sat while clients were out of town. I’m very cautious and trustworthy as well very vigilant of my surroundings.
About: I am the go-to dog sitter for my friends and family. I have been dog sitting for 10+ years. I work well with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. I give every dog the most love and attention as if they’re my own love one. I have experience with dog training and senior dogs. My current job is out of season and schedule is completely open. I can walk dogs any time is convenient for you. I am friendly and respectful. I have a fenced backyard and live in a quiet neighborhood with multiple parks and beaches close by. I am an experienced dog walker and can handle all breeds. I make sure to monitor closely when I let dogs out in the backyard and go on leashed walks when off property.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Oak View. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.

During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
