1. Alesha G.

“Alesha did an amazing job pet sitting Bella. She was so great with her and sent me updates daily. Alesha went above and beyond and even left us a thoughtful gift that was completely unexpected. We will definitely be using her services again the next time we go out of town.”


2. Annie & Ty S.


“Ty and Annie were absolutely amazing with our dog Tibbs! From the moment we dropped him off, we knew he was in great hands. They gave him so much attention and care—he came home happy, calm, and positively tired. We’re so grateful for their help and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for truly thoughtful, reliable dog sitters!”

9. Kayla K.
“Kayla is incredible! My dog Pockets always loved seeing her, and I knew he was always taken care of when she was around. Kayla has such a kind and compassionate demeanor that all animals love. She has a cat of her own that is her pride and joy, and of course loves dogs! She's a great communicator and very responsible — I never doubted that Pockets would be well taken care of when I was out of town. She treats other people's pets like they are her own, with love and kindness.”


10. Maria H.
About: I am new to San Diego, and had to leave my two dogs back home with my mom giving the big move. I have cared for dogs ever since I was little. I have a toy poodle who is 15 years old and a German shepherd who is 4 almost 5 now. I have trained them both from puppies to adults and have experience taking care of my now senior dog (Sofia). I have also experience caring for them plus my nephew dog who is also a large dog breed. I have previously also dog/house sat for a few individuals back home and I am used to either staying in the home or checking on the house and dogs at a particular time schedule set by the family. I am a full time student who is currently new on this website, thus I expect to start with weekends and depending on the individual need we can work on accommodating my schedule the best I can to fit pet and family needs. My dogs back home are not in crates so I am used to dogs being free to roam around the house or given our backyard is large back in NC - my larger dog likes to run around and play for the majority of the time outside. But when caring for your pets I would follow instructions given as to when they are allowed to go out or if they have crate time. I have dog sat before and usually the owner/parent gives me a set instructions to follow. This includes the feeding times and quantities. Any specific potty needs, picking up after them ect.




11. Natalie P.


“Natalie did a great job with our puppy! We were a little nervous leaving her with someone for the first time, but Natalie did a great job of making us feel at ease. Not only was she professional and on time, but she gives you peace of mind by sending you updates and pictures. Will definitely book again!”


12. Laura T.
“Laura has dog sat for my pups the last 15 years from puppies until the day we had to put them down. If you’re looking for someone reliable, dependable, loving and caring she is the perfect fit. She’s never missed a dog sitting appointment which was huge in the beginning of finding the perfect dog sitter. Her communication was something I also appreciated. She would make sure to confirm appointments as well as send pictures and texts while watching the dogs. I highly recommend laura for any dog sitting, dog walking, emergency needs. She’s my go to!”


13. Amanda L.


“It's such a relief to find a trustworthy person that cares about my special needs pooch as much as I do! Thanks for being do awesome, Amanda!”


14. Tiffany B.

“Thank you Tiffany for being so great with our pups. She saved us last minute when our sitter cancelled the day before our trip. She kept us constantly updated and sent tons of adorable pics. We felt very comfortable having Tiffany stay and look forward to having her for our next adventure.”


15. Eli S.

“Eli was so great with Brew! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Brew was in good hands. He kept him active with hikes and was happy to give Brew company. Eli was timely and responsible and we will definitely use him again to help with Brew. Thank you!”


16. Vivian W.

“Vivian was amazing with our 2 big dogs. She did a drop in visit the week before coming to watch our girls for 4 days. While on our trip we got lots of photos and updates and after the first text we knew the girls were having fun. When we got home, I noticed how silky their coats were from all the brushings they got while Vivian was here. They were happy to see us, but they still go to check out the room where Vivian was sleeping to see if maybe she’s still here. It’s unanimous that we will be using her to sit again.”


17. Keren G.

“Keren is warm, dependable and really just exactly the kind of person you would trust your precious pets with! I recommend her highly and will be booking her again”


18. Sarah F.


“Sarah provided amazing attention to our special pup when we were out of town this past week! She was very attentive to both Hailey and our needs (as we require a lot of feedback on our pup)! We appreciate everything thing she did and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a sitter. We will be booking again soon! Thank you Sarah!”


19. Rosunnara R.
