“Juliana was able to handle my GSD with no reservations. I was happy knowing I was leaving him with someone that was caring. She also took a lot of pictures and let us know when she was taking him out for walks.”
“Alexis was great with our dog. Brie was extremely excited to see her again! She took excellent care of Brie and understood her needs for walking and car rides! Our house was clean upon our arrival home, too. Highly recommend Alexis!”
“Angey took great care of our dogs. She sent many photos and videos f the dogs happy on their walks. She was a good communicator, stopped by to meet the dogs. And a self-starter, she figured out things at the house and with the dogs without a lot of questions.”
“Ethan was amazing! Our 3 very picky mini dachshunds took to him immediately (and that never happens) He sent updates all day and kept them on their schedule! Super great guy! We will use him over and over again!”
“Stephen was so great! This was my longest trip away from my dog and his communication and photos made me feel so relaxed and I could tell Toby was happy and well taken care of! Stephen also left my house spotless. I will definitely be booking him for my next trip!”
About: I bring a unique level of experience and professionalism to pet care, shaped by over two decades of service as a U.S. Marine and certified dog handler. I’ve deployed to Afghanistan as a combat dog handler, later serving as a trainer and kennel master, where I was responsible for the care, training, and performance of working dogs in high-stress environments. I also hold training certifications from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department as well as specialized credentials through the ATF and Department of Defense. This background not only taught me advanced skills in training puppies and adult dogs, but also in providing attentive care for senior and special-needs dogs. Above all, I bring patience, discipline, and a genuine love for animals—treating every dog I work with as if they were my own. I retired from active duty this year and I am a full time student, but I’m generally flexible in most situations and can work through challenges. My current residence is enclosed by a fence with a nice yard and patio area in a calm neighborhood by the pier in San Clemente, close to the beach and trails.
“Chloe did a great job with our dog, cat, and tortoise! She sent lots of pictures and updates and we were able to fully relax on our trip knowing everyone was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her services!”
“Michelle watched our very busy 16 week old puppy! She kept her entertained, out of trouble, and cared for all day! She sent photos and updates throughout the day and even walked our baby (she's not so sure about the leash yet). Michelle is a great sitter and I felt 100% assured that our Lola was in great hands.”

I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific preferences. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and comfort while also respecting the home and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away.

“Christine was the answer to our prayers! She took such amazing care of our 13-year-old, 8-pound little Polly while we were out of town. This was our first time inviting someone to stay in our home, and from the moment we met Christine, we knew she was a terrific match for us. Polly was treated to walks at the beach and nightly cuddles on our sofa and we were treated to daily texts with photos of her adventures! Prior to her arrival to stay with Polly, Christine met with us to ask specific questions about her care, diet, and daily habits. She had owned dogs for many years and was very knowledgable about elder dog care, which reassured us immensely. Her communication with us while we were away was frequent, and she always answered our texts in a timely manner. Our home was spotless when we returned, and Polly was happy, healthy, and completely non-plussed. It seemed like she didn't know we were gone at all! Perfect! THANK YOU Christine! A wonderful experience.”

“Emma was amazing with our two dogs while we were on vacation. Our dogs instantly loved her, she was incredibly communicative and sent so many updates/photos/videos. We were able to truly relax knowing they were in good hands and will definitely use her again.”
“Ligia watched Mazzy at my home when I was gone for a large part of the day. She was great with Mazzy and I felt so much more comfortable that Mazzy was in her own space and not at a daycare or a strangers house. Ligia sent me photos and assured me Mazzy was happy and well taken care of. I will definitely use her again.”

Angey was fantastic. She was able to watch our two pups with very little notice and knew that they were in good hands with her. She came on time, left the house very clean, and sent us pics throughout the night with updates on them and some videos ensuring us that they were having a great time. Will definitely use again!
Jamie did a phenomenal job housesitting with Sisi. The day we left, Sisi started having some tummy issues, but Jamie handled it with grace and administered some oral meds. She gave us lots of detailed updates and took great care of our house. I knew our baby and home was in great hands with Jamie and will absolutely book with her again.
This was our first time having Sasha sit for us. She is awesome and did an amazing job. Both of my senior aged pups loved her and felt at ease, which made me feel better about having to leave them. I highly recommend Sasha and I will be booking her again soon.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience and cannot recommend her enough. She communicated with me consistently throughout the stay and sent the sweetest pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. She took incredible care of my puppy — he clearly loved her and was so happy and comfortable the entire time. It was such a relief knowing he was in such good hands and I truly didn’t have to worry at all. I will absolutely be using her again. Thank you for taking such amazing care of my little guy🥰
Selina is amazing! She took care of our two senior dogs with such love and gave us daily updates. I'd recommend her to anyone! She was very dedicated to making them comfortable. She made sure she knew everything about the pups, their medication, and our house before we left. It was wonderful to know they were in good hands.
Abigail was amazing and kept us informed with updates and pictures throughout our trip in Europe. We have two very large dogs that can be a handful and she went above and beyond with everything. Our house was immaculate when we came back and our pups were well looked after. Will 100% rebook when our next trip comes up!!
Taylor was absolutely wonderful watching Wyatt Joel. I came home to a very happy kitty who was clearly well cared for and loved. She communicated with me throughout the visit, sent updates and photos, and was incredibly thoughtful — even offering to take care of extra tasks that weren’t required. Her kindness, attention to detail, and genuine care really put me at ease. I’m so grateful to have found her and look forward to working with her again!
