“Second time's the charm. I really appreciate Brenda's willingness to come out and sit our cats once again. She's very responsible, always sends photos after each appointment, and made sure to inform us any time she changed the water or had to make another purchase fir the cats midway through the period. Will definitely consider her again next time I'm out if town.”


“Amazing experience. We had so much peace of mind knowing that Brooklyn was with our fur family. She had excellent communication skills and was flexible with a few things we needed to update. Looking forward to many future weekend get away now that we have Brooklyn attending to our pets.”


“Nat walks my two dachshunds while I’m working long shifts at the hospital. She is responsible, trust-worthy and has great communication. She understands the needs/wants of my pups with opposite personalities and I appreciate that so much. You can tell she truly loves dogs. My pups took right to her and get very excited for their walks with her. I also love and appreciate all the photo updates she sends. Would totally recommend. Thanks Nat!”

“Adrian was amazing! On time and followed care instructions to a T. I’m nervous to trust anyone with my pets and I’m so happy I found Adrian. They also sent pictures to show how much fun they were having and it put me at ease to see them having a ball. I will be booking with Adrian again whenever I need a dog sitter! Thank you so much for your care of my fur baby and I can’t thank you enough!”


About: I have 10 plus years experience with dogs, I have 2 fur babies who always bring me joy. I have loved animals from a very young age and treat them with love, kindness and respect. With my own 2 pups I cook, clean, play, get them to their vet appointments, clean their teeth, make sure they are groomed regularly. I treat my fur babies like they are literally my children, this is the same treatment your fur babies will get from me. I am available Monday - Friday from 4pm - 8pm and weekends upon requests. Would love the opportunity to work together and build a relationship. I currently am only offering either dog walks or drop in visits. I am not able to care for pets in my home, although that can change in the future.


“Dee is fantastic! She truly cares about the pet she is sitting and goes the extra mile. Although tippie is very shy, I know she appreciates Dee’s thoughtfulness to make her feel comfortable! Check-in reports are very helpful, would definitely recommend Dee!”

“Olivia did such a great job dropping in on my cat during a recent trip. We met up in advance and my cat immediately took a liking to her. She is very warm and I felt very comfortable having her come into my home. I look forward to having Olivia back again soon.”


“Victoria was great! Quick/easy to communicate, check ins were on time and as discussed, and she seemed to take great care of my cat while I was gone! I will use her in the future.”


“Imelda was great! We got updates every time she made a visit that included a picture. Our dog can be a little cranky around new people, but we could see she enjoyed her visits from Imelda. We had to book last minute and were so thankful Imelda was able to help us in a pinch.”


About: I love all and every fur baby. Have been pet sitting for many family friends for many years. I currently watch over 2 senior dogs for the past couple years. I also have experience with caring for puppies and understand the time and care that goes into raising these little fur babies. I am a senior at San Diego State and am home for the summer. I typically have plenty of free time with a break from classes. I love animals and would love to spend as much of my free time as possible caring for them and hanging out with them. I am a very diligent rule follower with specific requests regarding the care for your dog/cat. I will deliver the best care I can do for your pets like they are my own. I love my 2 cats with all my heart and will make sure your pets get the same love that I would give my own boys.


“Terra is always so great with my dog. I won’t trust her with anyone but Terra. We love having someone so trustworthy and caring close by. And most important Olive adores her.”



“Michael is excellent. Responsible, prompt, communicative, all the things you want in a pet sitter. The playful relationship he has with my crazy cat is really cute. And I love the action photos!”


About: I grew up with 4 dogs, riding horses, and pet sitting in my neighborhood. My animals have always been my family and I will make sure to treat yours the same. I have pet sat birds, rabbits, dogs, and cats. I adore animals with all my heart and I would love to be able to help any other animal lovers with taking care of your lovely pets! I currently am available all day and have plenty of time to play and walk with your pups! I have an occasional 3 hour work shift once or twice a week but overall am very available. I am happy to integrate any dog into my routine of going on walks, hanging out in the house and backyard, and going out to grab food or watch the sunset. I love going on walks and would love them even more if I had a furry friend with me. Your dog’s safety is my top priority! I am thorough in listening about animals different personalities, so I can make sure I understand each pup individually. I have taken care of dogs varying from puppies to very elderly dogs, so I understand that there are different needs of safety and activities for every dog. I am very attentive and organized, I will make sure to keep them safe and feeling loved as if they are my own.

About: I've been around animals my whole life, and I have always known my love for animals would lead to a career I would love. My neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to care for their pets. I have cared for dogs of all sizes, cats, lizards, snakes, and hamsters. I currently have no other responsibilities taking up my schedule, so I have as much time as needed to care for your pets! I'm free to do overnight care any day. I want to keep Tuesdays free, but I am flexible. After introducing myself to your pet, I will let them get to know me and play with them a bit. Considering the owner's expectations, I will ensure the pet is comfortable and ready for the set-out plan: food and water, any medications, brushing, any cleanup necessary, walks, and, of course, playtime! I update the owner and send pictures of their happy pets.

“Lilli was an absolute gem with our dog Tesh! From the moment we met her, she was warm, attentive, and clearly passionate about pets. She took the time to learn Tesh’s routine—his favorite walking route, how he likes his treats, even his quirky habit of chasing his tail before bed. Throughout the stay, she sent us adorable updates with photos and little notes that put us totally at ease while we were away. Tesh came back happy, healthy, and maybe even a little spoiled from all the love! Lilli’s reliable, communicative, and goes above and beyond—I can’t recommend her enough.”
