About: I’ve grown up on a farm surrounded by animals, giving me a lifetime of hands on experience with pets. I have two dogs of my own and have been taking care of horses for many years. I’m comfortable with daily feeding, grooming, exercise, and providing lots of love and attention to animals. Caring for pets is second nature to me, and I enjoy making sure every animal feels happy, safe, and well cared for. Every day, I feed, walk, groom, and care for dogs and horses. Pet care is a natural part of my routine, keeping animals happy and healthy. I care for pets in their own home by feeding, playing, and giving attention. I make sure they’re happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and natural caretaker who truly adores pets and takes their wellbeing seriously. I grew up with a cat and two dogs and have been dogsitting for friends and neighbors since I was little — caring for everyone from energetic pups and 3-week old kittens, to sweet senior cats and doggos who just want a slower walk and extra cuddles. I’m comfortable with whatever your pet needs to be happy and cared for: feeding, walking, running, playing, doing brain enrichment games, bathing, cuddles, you name it. I’m super active and love long walks and runs, and would love to help your fur baby get the exercise they need. Happy to take them to parks, beaches, or appointments as requested as well :) I have experience with higher-needs and very young animals as well. I fostered two kittens who were just 3 weeks old, providing round-the-clock care, until they were 2 years old, and volunteered as a foster with the San Diego Humane Society. I’ve also spent years babysitting and working as a summer camp counselor for children with learning disabilities, which made me extremely responsible, attentive, patient, and compassionate. I will always follow your routines and preferences closely, and will love your pet as if they were my own <3 I genuinely love helping people care for their pets and am happy to offer discounted help to anyone in need 🤍 I can’t wait to meet you and your pup (or kitty!)! I currently work full time from home (7am - 3pm PT), am available early mornings, during lunch, and after 3pm, and my schedule can flex as needed depending on your pets needs! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 3pm. I live in a townhome in a very walkable area with two other girls, and want to be respectful of their space, so I'll just need to confirm it's a good fit before boarding your fur babies with me :) Happy to chat as needed to make sure both you and I (and your pets) are fully comfortable with whatever situation you're looking for!

About: *NOTE: Currently only accepting existing clients for boarding & daycare* I’ve had dogs in my life ever since I was a kid and I got my own dog in 2010, a sweet mini dachshund, who sadly passed away in 2024. I love dogs and truly miss having a dog to love on and take care of. I’m not ready to get another dog just yet, but I want to help others with their dogs! I have done plenty of pet-sitting for all my friend’s animals, I grew up around small dogs, and of course, my dachshund expertise is through the roof! I am experienced with senior dog care and following directions for any meds needed. I’m not working currently, so I’m home pretty much all the time, aside from trips to the gym or running errands when needed. Perfect for a dog that likes their relaxation! I am on the first floor of a large condo complex. I live in a 2 bedroom unit with my boyfriend, who dogs seem to absolutely love! No yard, but there is a designated “doggie relief” area within my complex for quick potty breaks. I’ve lived around this area of PB for a few years now and it’s a great neighborhood for walks! I am attentive and good at following instructions. I had to have a very specific routine with my dachshund in her senior years, so I understand and respect whatever routine you may have set as well.

“Tina is a great sitter! She goes above and beyond - she let me know about a notice on my door while I was out of town and cleaned up the litter my cats tend to leave around (even though we never discussed those responsibilities). Very easy to work with and clearly loves pets!”

Bailey R.

“Super easy to coordinate with!”

About: I've had dogs since I was a child, currently own two Belgian Malinois. I'm a volunteer with Soulmate rescues and regularly foster rescue dogs of all shapes and sizes. I currently work as a part-time researcher at UCSD in a dog friendly office where I bring my own dogs. At the moment my schedule is variable, I'm always available for walks on the weekend, early mornings and evenings on weekdays. Occasionally will be available the full day during weekdays. I have two large dogs in my home which are both friendly with small dogs which I can look after if it's an emergency. In all other cases I can look after pets at the client's home, I'm respectful and mindful of potential hazards for dogs in the household.

About: I have had pets my whole life growing up and I would love to continue sharing that love for others dogs as well! Your dog will be well taken care of I currently work Monday - Thursday 12:30pm-5pm. So I would be available to walk/play with your pet before and after work. If needed care during the time I work I am willing to make that happen as well. I will only be available to keep your dog company at your place and more than happy to take your dog on long walks in the neighborhood

About: Currently living in 92109, though I have a car and am more than happy to drive to nearby areas! I have worked with dogs and cats for apx 10 years. I worked at a veterinary hospital for over a year in 2016 and worked at a kennel for three years before/during my college years. I am currently holding a position at a dog kennel/daycare. I absolutely love working there and am responsible for feeding, administering medication, bathing, and giving the love and affection each dog deserves. I’ve spent time volunteering abroad in Thailand as a manager at a dog rescue and even had my own foster pup last year! I truly love animals so much and would be honored to care for your furry loved one(s)!

“Paulette is the best! She is attentive, caring and Harry loves walks with her! She’s very reliable and always sends lots of pictures/updates. Highly recommend!!”

Alex C.

“Michelle is great! I was looking for someone nearby who had morning flexibility to let my fur baby out and get breakfast while I was at work, and she was responsive and we set up a meet and greet right away. I appreciate that, so the dog and sitter can meet first. She sent photos and Riley 🐕 liked her- I could tell! Thanks Michelle!”

Chelsea M.

“Joe-el was amazing and he went above and beyond when he took fantastic care of our cat Sunny and our chinchilla Waffles. Not only was he patient with me but he seemed to genuinely love being with Sunny. His report cards were super clear and very detailed, which I really appreciated. He was also very communicative and responsive which really helped me to feel comfortable. I can’t say enough great things about Jor-el and he’s made me feel so much more comfortable leaving my little fur baby at home. — he will be out go to cat sitter!”

June L.

“Dependable, pet care knowledge of other pets. Our cat readily loved her and came out of hiding to greet her. Highly recommend her pet services.”

Lauren K.

“Nicole was so sweet and accountable. My cats seemed like they didn’t miss me much and the apartment was so tidy when I returned even though I didn’t ask her to sweep or anything, knowing my messy cats I can tell she did. Highly recommend!”

About: I absolutely love dogs and can’t imagine life without them! I’ve always been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family whenever they head out of town because they know how much I enjoy spending time with pups. I grew up with dogs, and I currently have two of my own who are staying with my parents in Florida. Over the years, I’ve raised and trained several puppies, so I’m very comfortable with everything from potty training to leash manners. I’m a very responsible and attentive dog owner who understands the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and well-cared for. Whether it’s playing fetch, going on long walks, or just giving belly rubs and snuggles, I truly enjoy spending quality time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m also confident handling large breeds and strong pullers on leash. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup, and I’ll treat them like one of my own! I work from home so I am able to watch dogs during the day, or take them for walks most days of the week after 12 pm! I prioritize the safety and happiness of dogs! I have excellent intuition when it comes to dogs and am able to be both their playmate and caretaker.
