“Lea was great! Tombstone was perfectly tired when I picked him up - he even had a friend to play with! She took him for a walk in the middle of the day and sent plenty of pictures. Would book again.”



“Kathryn was amazing and so accommodating to my last minute request! My crazy 5 mo old beagle can be a handful but he had a blast spending the day with Kathryn and came home happy and exhausted. She was very responsive throughout the day and sent pictures and videos of Milo often. Will definitely be bringing Milo back during our next trip to San Diego.”


About: I love all pets. I have a special place in my heart for all pets. Wish I could start a pet sanctuary of my own. I treat all pets with respect and loyalty as if they were my own. I have 2 crested geckos currently. I’m a stay at home mom so my schedule is open. I’m pretty flexible with schedules but live a good routine. I can provide the best care with proper instructions. I can crate your pet if needed but we can also take many walks and get a lot of exercise during the day. I don’t have small children. My youngest is 5 but we all loves pets and are as patient as possible with all animals.

“My dog Luna arrives and leaves Kelsey’s home with so much excitement and happiness. I can tell Luna has been treated very well in her care and a the huge difference in her mood after I pick her up from daycare vs. being home alone all day while I’m away at work. She also loves playing with all the other little dogs Kelsey watches as well, it’s so cute! Happy owner over here!”


“Kristen was so kind and accommodating for a last minute visit. My pup had a great time during his stay, and I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again for future stays. Thank you, Kristen!”



“Marcus made Millie feel right at home! Walks, treats, and cuddles….perhaps her dream day. I appreciate Marcus’ communication before and during her stay. Highly recommend.”


About: I've been taking care of dogs my whole life. I have never not owned dogs and usually I have had between 2-4 at a time. I have fostered dozens of dogs for Helen Woodward of all ages and backgrounds including seniors. I enjoy taking them out for a long walk every day. I usually go to Fiesta Island, dog beach or Grape street Dog Park. I own a 6 year old medium sized dog that loves company. I work part-time from home and am an empty nester. I enjoy filling my day with doggie time. I am available 7 days a week for doggie daycare or boarding. I have a fenced yard and one friendly dog to keep your dog company. I can accommodate both crate trained dogs or no crate. Dogs are allowed on the furniture.

About: I grew up in a big family, we’ve always had dogs! I’ve raised and taken care of 6 dogs in my life. I would take care of your pet the way I would take care of my own! I have a full time job, but am available Friday - Sunday to take care of your pet! I will respond quickly with my availability if you’re interested. I have a house with a side yard. There is a huge park right across the street from me for your dog to stretch its legs!

“Thank you so much for the doggie daycare for Billy! Quick response time, willing to pick up/drop off your doggo and a nice picture update! Would recommend to anyone and definitely plan to rebook in the future!”


“Karen has been taking wonderful care of Terra. Terra is usually a fearful princess, but she seemed at ease from the very first minute. Hopefully she and turtle become best friends soon! Definitely recommend Karen. :)”


About: I’ve been pet sitting for family and friends since my beloved Kato went over the rainbow bridge in 2020. From young pups to senior citizens with mobility considerations, I have safely cared for them all. I’m retire now, which means I have ultimate flexibility and time to spend with your fur baby. I’m an early riser and I usually go out for a few errands in the mid morning. I have a fenced patio/yard space. I’m on a quiet street in a walkable neighborhood. Dogs are family in my home. I’ll do my best to match your routine and keep your fur baby happy!

About: I have extensive experience in caring for a variety of pets, from energetic puppies to senior dogs that require special attention. My approach is rooted in patience, understanding, and building trust with the animals I care for. I provide daily walks, playtime, and ensure pets are comfortable in their environment. I’m also familiar with administering medication and managing dietary restrictions for pets with special needs. What sets me apart is my passion for making pets feel at ease while their owners are away. I am particularly skilled at puppy training, helping them develop good habits early on, and I also specialize in senior dog care, offering gentle and tailored approaches to keep them active and comfortable. I am flexible and available around the clock to accommodate your pet’s needs. Whether it's early morning walks, mid-day playtime, or late-night feedings, I work with your schedule to ensure that your pet gets the attention they need at any time of day. While I do have other commitments, pet care is always my top priority, and I’m happy to adjust to the specific routine that works best for your pet. When caring for pets in my own home or your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I ensure that pets are kept in a secure environment, whether it’s a cozy, pet-proofed space in my home or an area in yours where they feel comfortable and safe. I follow any specific routines or rules set by pet owners, including feeding times, exercise needs, and any house rules. In my own home, I make sure that there are no hazards that could harm the pets, such as exposed cords or dangerous plants. I also provide plenty of toys, comfy spots to rest, and access to fresh water throughout the day. When staying in your home, I take extra care to maintain your pet's routine and environment, ensuring that they have a sense of normalcy and security while you're away.

About: Hi! I've been pet-sitting dogs and cats regularly for about 15 years. I'm happy to care for pets of all ages. I love going out on adventures so I'll take them out for multiple walks (or runs, if they're up for it!), and I also have a large securely fenced-in backyard that they'll have access to. As fun as pet sitting can be, I do take it very seriously so rest assured that your fur babies will be in the best hands. I pay lots of attention to instructions and details and go above and beyond to make sure they feel loved and cared for. I also only ever take care of one dog at a time so they will get all of my love and attention! I currently work part-time virtually and am able to set my own hours/meeting times, so my schedule is very flexible and I can to shift things around to accommodate pets' needs. When I'm pet-sitting, I keep a close eye on them at all times. However, in the worst case scenario I have an urgent care veterinarian about a 6 minute drive from my house if they have any medical needs during their stay.

“Donovan was great! Professional, very friendly, communicative, and easy-going. It was our first time bringing our pup here. She loved running and chasing the other dogs there, and came home exhausted. She is now fast asleep and probably dreaming about her fun day. Would definitely recommend Donovan, and we will be back for more playtime!”


About: I am a dog person! Old, young, small, large! No matter the dog I am sure to love and adore it as if it was my own. To be transparent, I do have a 4 year old English Bulldog (M) of my own who is a total couch potato. He’s spent a lot of time around other dogs and does particularly well with puppies and female dogs (he’s a ladies man lol). Growing up neighbors, friends and family were always calling me to care for their fur babies whether they were running home late from work or away for vacation. Some breeds I have sat in the past include: pugs, bulldogs, mastiffs, doodles, bernies, goldens, labs, and austrailian shepherds. I currently work from home 4.5 days a week (Tuesday mornings I am in office), so have a fairly flexible schedule when it comes to tending to your pets needs. Additionally, I am also available for reoccurring pet walking/let outs during lunch and after work. ** At this time I am not able to stay overnight at clients homes, if you are interested in having me do multiple drop in visits to your home throughout the day reach out and I will charge you my overnight price Additionally, I While you are away my goal is to allow your pet to stay on their normal routine as much as possible. Whether that be going for long walks, playing outside, or extra long belly rubs I want to make sure your pet is getting the love and care they are used to.

“Very grateful Gwyneth was available on a super short notice! She’s friendly and easy to communicate with. I would book her again without hesitation. Thanks again for spending the day with Daisy!”


About: I grew up with standard poodles and other animals, so animal care as always been a big part of my life. I've worked as a vet assistant and kennel tech where I assisted with exams and took care of boarded animals at the clinic. Some were boarded for a few days or while the recovered from surgery. I handled things like giving medication, baths, feeding and walks as well as cleaning the kennel facility. I've extended that same standard of thorough and compassionate care to all aspects of dog care, ensuring their care and well-being is the top priority! I have a flexible schedule and I can walk your dog several times a day as needed and they can play in the backyard, lounge on a covered porch or stay indoors. I also can take them to Dog Beach for exercise and a swim if you like. I live in a house on a quiet street, in a pet friendly neighborhood along Sunset Cliffs, Ocean Beach. I have a large backyard and side yard that locks and a shady covered porch. Your dog is more than welcome to stay inside the house the entirety of their stay as well.
