“Angela took great care of my boys while I was away for a weekend trip. My doggies are usually pouty when I leave them for more than a few hours and they acted like I never left! Angela was also great with communication and very prompt to respond.”

“Vanessa was wonderful from start to finish. Followed all my instructions, was timely, and even got my super shy cat out and interacting within a few days. Highly highly recommend.”



“Miriam dropped in on Black Kitty for three days. Her communication was thorough and care was excellent. I appreciated all the photos that were sent while I was away, and also an update when Black Kitty had appeared to get into a piece of styrofoam that I left on my desk. (She secured the styrofoam and put it out of reach.) I would not hesitate to have Miriam care for Black Kitty again.”


“Allison was fantastic with our cat Harriet! We wanted Harriet to be kept company while we went on a trip, and she warmed up to Allison right away. Allison was punctual each visit, and kept us up to date with everything. Highly recommended!”


About: I have had my own dogs the last 25 years and am the aunt to many dogs in the family and in the neighborhood. All the pups know I care around treats! I have experience with a wide range of breeds. I am a very active person so your dog is sure to go on many walks followed by naps! I am retired so I am available whenever. With my last dog, a yellow Labrador named Kesha, I went on about 4 walks a day. My house is two levels and your dog is free to roam around as they wish. I have a backyard on the ground level so if hosting a senior dog, they won't have to use the stairs.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience caring for pets big and small. I grew up with English Mastiffs, currently have an American Bully of my own, and have also spent decades around horses — riding, grooming, and managing care routines. I’m calm and grounded with animals, especially large breeds and pets that need a little extra reassurance. I’ve trained my own dog in basic obedience and scent games, and I love figuring out what makes each pet feel most at ease. Whether it’s a senior pup who needs gentle routines or a playful puppy who craves stimulation, I adapt to meet their energy and needs. As a remote worker, I’ll be home for most of the day to keep your pets company and on schedule. I typically only step out for a few hours for errands. I offer overnight stays with regular walks, feeding, and lots of cuddles. I’m comfortable giving meds, caring for senior pets, and working with puppies or pets with quirks. I’ll also gladly help around the house — watering plants, picking up mail, taking out the bins — so you can come home to happy pets and a well-cared-for space. • Calm, consistent presence throughout the day • Photo and message updates to keep you connected • Personalized care based on your pet’s needs • Extra help around the house if needed • Familiarity with strong or stubborn breeds

That being said, fun, play and treats are a close 2nd, 3rd and 4th! I have no problem following instructions and will ask for clarity when necessary. I am always respectful of personal property and privacy.

About: I have grown up with animals and currently have an almost 1 year old dog named Cider. I worked at an animal Rescue for almost a year helping dogs and cats find their forever homes, making sure they were paired with the right humans. I now work at Arguello Pet Hospital as a Vet Assistant. I have boarded many dogs over the years and have a big house with a backyard that's perfect for a dog to hang out or play in! My dog is very friendly and very playful but knows how to calm down and relax when needed. I currently work at a Vet 5 days a week, M-Thu until 6pm and Saturday until 1pm. I'm off Fridays and Sundays. I have a 2 hour lunch break during the week where I take my dog to the park for play time. I have a big 2 story house with a secured 6 foot fence. The dog is welcome to wander anywhere upstairs and is allowed on the couch. The dog will sleep in the room with me and my dog.

“Alejandrina took great care of my car. I appreciated the detailed pictures in her reports and how she was able to handle unforeseen situations without need for much input while I was away. She responds promptly to messages and communicated in a straightforward way. I highly recommend Nina as a pet sitter.”
