House Sitting in Palomar Mountain

“Noemy takes such good care of our animals. Being away, it feels great to know that our dog, cats and guinea pigs are well loved. Our house is cleaner when she leaves too! Thank you Noemy!”

About: I am a reliable and dedicated dog sitter with six years of experience. I genuinely enjoy what I do, and I understand that each dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. I take time to make sure each dog in my care feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you are away. I enjoy being surrounded by dogs and learning new things along the way, I strive to create a positive environment where pets can relax and feel secure as if they were at home. I know how important trust and communication are when leaving a pet with a sitter. That’s why I focus on being dependable, responsible, and respectful of both pets and their homes. I provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their dogs are happy, safe, and receiving the best care possible. Through my years of experience, I have cared for dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I am comfortable working with energetic dogs that require frequent exercise as well as calmer or older dogs that need a slower pace and more patience. My responsibilities have included feeding schedules, administering basic medications if needed, maintaining secure spaces for puppies and seniors, ensuring clean water and bedding, daily walks, monitored playtime, leash training, kennel training, connecting with anxious or aggressive dogs, etc. I have also gained experience understanding dog body language and behavioral cues. This has helped me recognize when a dog may be stressed, excited, tired, or in need of attention. Being attentive to these signals allows me to respond appropriately and provide care that fits each dog’s personality and needs. My goal is to make sure every pet feels secure and relaxed while in my care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, which is why I prioritize reliability, communication, and respect. I make sure to keep owners updated with messages and photos so they know their dog is being well cared for. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me. Overall, my experience caring for animals has taught me patience, responsibility, and attention to detail. I genuinely enjoy spending time with the dogs I care for, and I strive to provide a safe, attentive, and positive environment where every dog feels comfortable and loved. Caring for dogs is a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule so I have plenty of time to give dogs the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Because of this, I’m able to stay consistent with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and constant supervision. Throughout the week, I intentionally set aside time for dog care activities such as walks, outdoor breaks, enrichment, and quality interaction. I enjoy being active and spending time outside, so taking dogs on walks or letting them explore safely is something that fits easily into my lifestyle. This allows me to provide pets with both physical activity and mental stimulation. In addition to basic care, I also make time to simply spend quality time with the pets I watch. Whether it’s playing, giving attention, or keeping them company, I believe dogs benefit from having someone present who is patient and engaged with them. I try to make sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for during their stay. I am used to maintaining structured care routines, which is important for helping dogs stay relaxed while their owners are away. I follow feeding schedules carefully, make sure pets always have fresh water, and ensure they get regular bathroom breaks and exercise. Sticking to their normal routine helps dogs feel safe and reduces unnecessary stress. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my main goal is to keep their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care preferences. Maintaining a familiar routine helps pets feel safe and reduces stress while their owners are away. In terms of boarding in my home, I create a calm and safe environment where dogs have space to relax, play, and receive plenty of attention. I make sure they get regular potty breaks, daily walks, and time for exercise and mental stimulation. I also monitor them closely to ensure they are comfortable and adjusting well to the new environment. When house sitting in a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pet’s care exactly how they are used to it. I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship while also keeping the home clean with respect to the owner’s space. Staying in the pet’s familiar environment often helps them feel more relaxed while their owner is away. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and body language to make sure they are comfortable and happy. If a dog is more energetic, I make sure they get enough activity. If they are older or more relaxed, I adjust the care to be calm and patient. Communication is very important to me while caring for pets. I provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are safe and happy. My goal is to give pets reliable and attentive care.

About: I used to sit for a German family, whether it was date night, or when they left the country to visit their family. They were always so grateful they could trust me. They have moved out of state and I miss it. Let me take care of your furry baby like my own. I work M-Thurs, Friday I work from home, from 8am-5pm. I can do weekends or after work. If its house sitting then I would stay in your home. I will follow instructions on how you want me to take care of your pet, I know pets can get anxious and miss their family. I will try my best to offer comfort and familiarity.

“Like clock work”

“Claudia is truly exceptional! This was our second time having her care for our four dogs, and she continues to amaze us with each visit. Over Thanksgiving week, she cared for three elderly dogs with gentle attentiveness and one rambunctious four‑year‑old “teenager” pup who is endlessly active and seeking adventures. Her adaptability in balancing the needs of senior dogs with the energy of a high‑spirited youngster was remarkable — each received the perfect mix of patience, play, and love, making us feel completely at ease while away. Not only did she keep the dogs happy and well‑cared‑for, but she went above and beyond in every detail. We returned to a beautifully clean and tidy home — honestly better than when we left it. Her reliability, kindness, and willingness to go the extra mile make her an absolute treasure. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we wholeheartedly recommend Claudia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring.”

“From the first moment we met, you could immediately tell that Victoria was a genuine, warm person and a true dog lover. She sent pictures throughout our trip and in every picture our babies were clearly very relaxed and loved being with her. They snuggled on the couch and slept in her bed with her just like they would have done if we’d been home. Our girls were clearly well taken care of, and even more, clearly loved. She also cared very much about honoring our wishes, wasn’t afraid to ask if there was something she was unsure of, and communication was clear and easy. From the “business” side of things, it couldn’t have been easier with Victoria! We will absolutely reach out to her again for future dog and house sitting.”

“We were very appreciative of Beth, our dog ended up having separation anxiety that we we did not anticipate and she kept us informed and did her best to keep our dog calm while we were away. Beth was very easy to communicate with, we would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter. Thank you Beth!”

About: A passionate caretaker with a lifetime of experience with love and understanding for all pups! Experience with professional caretaking, positive reinforcement dog training, and foster care. I usually do pet sitting around my work schedule and am always ready for dog sitting days 😸 My work started in San Diego and Los Angeles, most recently making the move to Boise where I’ve fallen in love with the area. In my clients home I always make sure I know I everything I need to know about the pup to make them feel as comfortable at safe as possible. New caretakers can be spooky to our pets sometimes and positive, proper introductions are very essential! I make sure to communicate with the owners about the dogs needs and make sure I am aware of any notes or concerns.

About: I specialize in energetic walks/runs. It’s enjoyable playing and taking care of pets! Always a pleasure to see those puppy ears stand up and see that tail wag back and forth! 🐶 Being outdoors enjoying the day, while having a fun connection with pets is a high point of the day! My medical experience includes licenses as an EMT and an EKG technician. My day to day includes helping people and their families as a Life/Health/Accident Insurance agent. Enjoying with animals is a fun part of the day! I take my relative’s pets on a walk around the dog park multiple times a month. In addition help prepare their food and even help shower / dry the puppies.

“Terra did an amazing job with Maisy. I had to hire unexpectedly at the last minute and she was so quick to respond and had great communication, she was also flexible with her schedule in order to accommodate mine. She sent tons of pictures which I appreciate too! I will definitely reach out to her for my future trips to San Diego.”

“Drea was so great! She took wonderful care of our dogs. We have a senior pug who needs a lot of special love and care. She did a great job of giving him what he needed. She also played with our younger dog and gave him snuggles as well. I am so glad that we found Drea. We will definitely use her again.”
