About: Hi! I moved to San Diego in July '22, and really enjoy all the outdoor space and amenities available to keeping our pets happy and healthy! I currently have a 15 year old female cocker spaniel named Coco, a 3 year old pit shepherd named Cali, and 2 year old boxer shepherd named Mocha. I love taking them on walks, exploring new neighborhoods together, and giving them all the love and attention they deserve! I'd very much welcome being a part of your pets' lives (dogs and cats) and I'll make sure to give them all my love and attention while keeping things fun! I know there are many experienced dog handlers to choose from, and I thank you for entrusting me with your pets' daily routines. I work from home, and so I'm flexible for walks and drop ins, both weekdays and weekends. I'm generally available after 9am to care for your pets! Since I work from home, I'm with my dogs all the time, so I can easily keep my eye on them. My doors and gates are locked all the time, so no issues with them running out. I'll make sure to do the same at my client's home and I'm happy to follow any special requests they may have to care for their pets.

16. Reilly B.

17. Brandon N.
“Brandon has a lot of love and compassion for animals and I have no doubt he would care for any pet responsibly and attentively. He is a responsible and dependable person and pet owner who I’d definitely trust with my own!”

About: i've had several dogs since childhood, many cats too! I've helped my neighbors take care of the dogs when they were out of town for years and I've never had any issues. I absolutely adore all pets and other furry friends! i'm currently not working right now, so I'm free all week! I don't mind super early or late. Any time of day works for me, and if they don't, i will see to it that i accommodate to your specific needs! I'm not super familiar with crate training, but any specific instructions is super helpful for me! Even down to preferred energy levels and handling, I want to make sure your pets are comfortable and well cared for.
