House Sitting Pine Valley

“Maci took great care of my sweet girl. She provided regular updates and photos and I feel my dog was well taken care of. I wound totally recommend Maci as a sitter. Thank you!”

“Wow! Gabrielle is amazing! Best Rover home sitter we have ever had! Not only did she step up and save our planned trip to Bahamas after our other scheduled rover home stay sitter we had booked months earlier canceled last minute on us, but she also went above and beyond in every way, from doing some positive reinforcement training with our kitten with his harness and leash, and asking good questions( she has attention to detail) and cleaning our place at the end of the stay. She sent us lots of good updates and photos which showed our dog and kitten were having a good time. She is an amazing resource when it comes to cats since she volunteers and a big cat Sanctuary, and with her degree in animal law and her passion for animal advocacy, we knew Huntington and Remi were in the best hands possible for their care! We highly recommend her and would love to have her care again for our animals in the future! Thanks Gabrielle!”

“Erika did an amazing job with our two pups and cat! We took a long 4 day weekend and were completely at ease the entire time! We came back to our pups and cat in great shape(I noticed she took care of their paw pads, thank you so much!) and totally loved on! I highly recommend you book Erika for your pet sitting needs, we definitely will!”

“Rae did a great job with our little girl. She spent lots of time with her and got to know her well. She sent us photo and video updates daily. We will use her again.”

About: A natural born caretaker, I’ve taken care of Dogs, cats, birds and kids most of my life. I was also a full time Realtor for 10 years so I’m familiar with navigating households in a professional manner. I live a sober, simple, happy life and if we seem to be a good fit, I would love to help care for your pets and your home as if they were my own. 🙏💕✌️ My availability for pet care is wide open right now for both daily and weekly opportunities. My availability for pet care services is wide open now for both daily and weekly opportunities. I am confident in my abilities to both pet and house sit as I was a housekeeper/mom for 25 years, a realtor for 9, and business owner so I’m very respectful of others and their homes. I will respectfully follow your lead.

About: Hi, I’m Melissa – A Lifelong Animal Lover with a Personal Touch Growing up with animals taught me early on how to understand and care for pets with love, patience, and respect. Over the years, I’ve rescued, trained, and nurtured countless fur babies. I treat your pets like family because that’s what they deserve. We specialize in providing one on one attention by only hosting one dog at a time (or siblings from the same home), so your pet gets a calm, loving environment where they feel safe and happy. We believe in positive reinforcement, mental stimulation, and physical activity especially with the beach nearby for fun walks and playtime. I also bake healthy homemade treats and often add a little pet spa love for extra pampering. Your pet may even learn a new trick or two! You can get a feel for who we are by checking out our journey on TikTok at #lolasdoggycare We’re here to love and care for your fur baby just like you would maybe even a little extra. I have a small business from home, so the flexibility is there. I make pet products as well as homemade products so I set my own hours. I treat all the fur babies as if they were my own child or pet. I follow their schedule and give them my undivided attention and do lots of playing! We go get our walks or smelly’s. 🐶

“Vannessa and Jason were amazing! They took such great care of our two pups and home. We were gone for 2 weeks and this was the longest we’d ever been away. It was such a stress free trip entrusting them with our pups! They were very communicative and provided updates and pics everyday while we were gone. The house was so clean when we came back! Cannot recommend them enough. We will definitely be asking them to housesit everytime we leave!”

“Gretchen was amazing. She spent a mo th caring for my cat and my home. I came home to a perfectly clean home and my kitty was well taken care of. Halle will miss all the attention and love she got from Gretchen. I would definitely have Gretchen back. A++”

About: I've grown up with cats since I was 8 and began petsitting for people in my 1st couple years of college around 2015. I've done both dogsitting and catsitting for people and I love both animals equally! I have petsat for people with animals of all ages, with the youngest dog I have watched being about 8-10 months and the oldest being about 14 or 15. I love exploring new places and being outdoors especially since I live in one of the most beautiful places in the U.S. with the best weather! I find it equally enjoyable to see a dog smile and to see him/her bring joy to their owner and to people around them. I love to see how dogs can bring people together and get people to connect who would otherwise likely never talk to each other. I genuinely enjoy helping others and caring for pets really is its own kind of therapy! I will always clean up after pets even if its raining or if the dog wants to rush off and I have to step on the leash to keep him/her from taking off. I live by the golden rule and will do what I can to hold people accountable for pets that aren't being taken care of and/or cleaned up after. I'm currently working part time at San Diego Community College district as an Educational Coach with a students who are special needs or neurodivergent student population. I work about 17-19 hours a week for that job and am typically away from the home for 5 hours a day or less on Mon-Thurs depending on the day and number of students I'm meeting with. Some administrative tasks for my school job can be done remotely. I want to do more dog-walking and housesitting because it motivates me to stay active and foster connections with animals that my current living situation doesn't allow for. I also love hearing people's pet rescue stories and funny stories because each pet has its own personality and leaves pawprints on others hearts and lives! I love spending time with pets by throwing them their favorite toy and cuddling with them on the couch or bed. I also care for them by taking them for walks or finding the perfect new toy from an old volleyball, piece of rope, or other seemingly random objects that pets decide to take a liking to. Its interesting to see what they choose and of course there are limits there of things that should not be considered due to being hazardous due to being a choking hazard, but I'm all about finding new ways for them to have fun. I will feed them as often as you need and I have also given a dog its pills disguised in peanut butter or in its kibble a few times. If your animal is only allowed in parts of the house or yard I will keep the pens up and only allow it out as directed. I will provide them water as well as with treats or dental chews as preferred. I will take dogs out to use the bathroom as often as I am able, typically once every couple hours while I'm home and once every few hours if I'm going out. Feel free to reach out via text to clarify this, especially if your pet has specific needs or needs to be taken out more frequently to use the restroom.

“Catherine was a super awesome dog and house sitter. Rowan loves her and she kept the house spotless. I highly recommend her. Best dog sitter I’ve ever used!”

“Marissa is AMAZING!!! We love her and both of our boys love her. She took such good care of them and our house. They went for walks, played ball, hung out in the sun and did lots of snuggle time. I feel like we have finally found our person! I can't recommend her enough. She is simply the best.”

About: I will tailor the love and care for your pet based on his or her behavior and personality. I have both a senior dog and a pup, so there’s a huge range of personalities in between both. My senior dog requires at least an hour inside then wants his own time in the yard as for the pup he requires a lot of exercise and then nap time in the couch. Let me know your fur baby ‘s personality and I’ll be sure to accommodate. At my home you have the option to be completely outside or inside, we have cement and grass and lots of fruit trees for them to smell and explore. I would prefer for your dog to be potty trained in advanced if he or she requires to be inside.

About: My experience caring for animals began long before I started pet sitting professionally. I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, chickens, goats, horses, dogs, and cats. From an early age, I was responsible for daily animal care, including early-morning feedings, cleaning animal living areas, administering medications, and ensuring every animal was healthy, comfortable, and well cared for. That upbringing gave me a strong foundation in animal care, responsibility, patience, and understanding the unique needs of different animals. Throughout my adult life, I have continued to be the person friends, family, and others trust to care for their pets and homes while they travel. In 2019, I began using TrustedHousesitters, expanding my experience across the United States and internationally. I have cared for a wide variety of pets and households, including multiple dogs and cats at once, and can provide reviews from previous families upon request. What truly sets me apart is the breadth of my hands-on experience and my ability to adapt to each animal’s individual needs. I have cared for puppies, senior pets, animals requiring specialized medications, and pets with unique behavioral needs. My experience includes administering oral medications and injections, coordinating veterinary appointments, supporting recovery and special-care routines, and maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, and daily schedules. I also have experience with dog training fundamentals, including leash training and reinforcing commands such as sit, stay, wait, and heel. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs, leash sensitivity, excessive barking, and challenging walking behaviors. I understand the importance of patience, positive redirection, awareness of surroundings, and prioritizing safety when caring for animals with behavioral challenges. Beyond pet care, I provide attentive, full-service home care. Because I work remotely, I can establish my workstation in your home and remain available throughout the day, providing consistent companionship and supervision. I can manage mail and packages, maintain a clean and organized home, coordinate with contractors when needed, and communicate updates so you always know how things are going. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets requires a great deal of trust. I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully coordinate arrivals and departures, learn each pet’s routines and care instructions, and make sure their needs are met throughout my stay. I also take pride in leaving every home clean, organized, and welcoming for its owners’ return. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind. With a lifetime of animal experience, years of professional house and pet sitting, and a genuine commitment to attentive, individualized care, I bring the preparation, flexibility, and reliability needed to care for your pets and home as if they were my own.

About: I am an animal lover of all kinds. I have prior experience working at a boarding facility, a pet store, and volunteering at Helen Woodward Animal Center. I also have had experience caring for animals in my own home, for friends pets, and a ton of house sitting for the owners of the kennel I used to work for. My goal is to give animals comfort while their owner is away or keep them intrigued in whatever we are doing. Whether it be tossing around toys in the yard or house, going on long walks, or lounging around embracing cuddles. Animals truly are beautiful creatures and deserve all the love and care we as owners and pet lovers can give to them. Before you make your decision about giving me the pleasure of meeting you and your pet I would love to answer any questions or concerns you have about my experience and what you should expect from me and your expectations of me. Please do not hesitate to call, text, or email me. My schedule is flexible, and I’ll do my best to accommodate your and your pet’s needs. Whether it’s mornings, evenings, or somewhere in between, I aim to provide reliable care that works with your schedule. I provide personalized care for pets in both my home and my clients’ homes. I ensure a safe, comfortable, and fun environment, keeping to the pet's routine as closely as possible. Whether it's walks, feeding, or playtime, I focus on making sure the pet feels secure and happy in their surroundings. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and ensure it stays clean and organized during my visits.

“Marie was great! she came and met with Wilbur twice before sitting and he fell in love with her. she sent daily pictures and updates and was really great with him!”

“Ciccio and Posey immediately took to Dani. They loved the attention that she paid to them and the affection she gave them. She loved them too. I will be sure to use Dani again.”

“Dustin was fantastic. He stayed with my French Bulldog Mazie and my cat Dakota while I was traveling for work, and I never once worried about them. He arrived right on time, was professional from start to finish, and kept me updated throughout the stay with photos and check-ins that made being away much easier. He also left my place spotless — cleaner than I left it, honestly. Mazie and Dakota clearly took to him, and I’d book him again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend.”

About: I love all animals! I mostly grew up with dogs. I also take care of my roommates cat who is very friendly. Family and friends trust me with their four-legged children to ensure they're taken care of and well fed. I take time taking them out for walks and a little exercise. I give them lots of love and hugs. I ensure to balance that pets receive the same amount of time and attention as do children. I also treat them as if they were people. I allow pets, especially dogs to familiarize themselves with me. Adjust their comfort to my personality's frequency. I allow them to come to me before I make any approach.
