Pet Sitting San Luis Obispo

About: New to Rover, not to pet care! I’ve housesat for friends with dogs many times, providing overnight care, feeding, daily walks, playtime, and lots of attention. First and foremost, I love animals. I’m a very active person, so I genuinely enjoy getting the dogs outside for long walks and exercise tailored to their energy level. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision, flexible, scheduling, and reliable care throughout the day. I understand how important routine and communication are to pet parents, and I’m committed to keeping you updated with pictures and ensuring your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also have two cats of my own, so I’m very comfortable with pet care responsibilities and understand the trust involved in caring for someone’s animal. I’m currently working from home with a lot of flexibility, so I’m able to provide quick drop-ins or full time house sitting. My remote work allows me to be attentive and responsive throughout the day. Your pet safety and comfort are my type priorities. I follow all care, instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, routines, and any specific household guidelines. I understand how important consistency is for pets and work to maintain their normal routine while you’re away. I’m attentive to behavior changes and always prioritize a calm, low stress environment. During housesitting, I will treat your home with the utmost respect and keep you updated with regular messages and photos so you can feel confident in your pet is well cared for.

About: I’ve pet sat my neighbors pets (1 dog and 1 cat) for 7 years. I love taking dogs out for walks and seeing them interact with nature and other passing animals. I have a 4 year old cat named Basil and I used to have a pet hedgehog named Pepper. Nothing brings me more joy than being around animals! I work remotely (east coast hours) during the week are flexible so im up early and can stop by in between calls and anytime in the afternoon as my day slows down after 2pm. Weekends are usually fully open. I think the most important thing is to build trust with your pet and with you! Let’s chat so you can get to know me and talk about the rules you want followed in your home and with your fur baby!

About: I love hanging out with dogs while their parents parents are away! I am a big hiker, so on the weekends I love taking the dogs out for a hike/long walks and even the beach if allowed! I currently work 8-5 with occasional early entry at 6am. Weekends I am free, and evenings I am free. I am typically active early in the morning, able to feed and walk in the mornings and afternoons. I typically like to pet sit at the owners home to make the time away from the pets parents as seamless as possible! I am incredible respectful of other peoples homes and incredibly clean and tidy.

“Joshua was an excellent pet sitter! He was communicative, reliable, and took wonderful care of our dog while we were away. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our dog was in great hands. We truly appreciated his kindness and professionalism, and we wouldn’t hesitate to book him again. Highly recommend!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have over 19 years of hands-on experience caring for them. Growing up, we often had two dogs at a time, so I helped with feeding, walking, playtime, and providing daily care from a young age. I'm comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My schedule is currently very flexible, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the week. I volunteer Monday afternoons at The Marine Mammal Center, but I'm otherwise available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. While I have a few weekends already committed, I'm happy to work with you to find times that fit both our schedules. Whether I'm caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, follow your instructions carefully, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I believe every animal is different, and I always strive to create a calm, positive environment where they feel safe and cared for.

About: I’ve pet sit and walked dogs for neighbors and family friends ever since I was in middle school. I love animals and would love to help out in the San Luis Obispo area when needed. I currently work full time Monday-Thursday, so I am looking to help out with early morning or evening walks. On the weekends I am available at any time and can provide care more thoroughly then. I have a great home right by cal poly campus with a safe neighborhood and yard to take your pets on walks. Currently, no other pets in the house.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and taken care of my own, my friends and families dogs while they were away. I am very comfortable around all breeds of dogs and am willing to adapt and learn how to best care for your pet. I’ve potty trained puppies and taught older untrained dogs how to sit, and I give my dogs a lot of attention and love! I would love to take them to the park to play with other dogs or just a walk around the neighborhood if they’re not as outgoing. I also have experience with administering oral medication and bathing dogs afraid of water, so let me know what accommodations your dog needs. I’m currently working part time for the summer at Cal Poly, and have a catering gig some weekends. I’m available to feed pets multiple times a day, take them on walks mid day/evenings, and keep company overnight. I have a small, fenced yard for pets to stretch out and get sun, and I live right next to Sant Rosa park which is perfect for walking. I’m also available for drop ins at clients homes late night and early morning, although I would prefer not to do overnights.

“Karah was amazing with my sweet Peach! Karah was consistent in coming at the right time, she played with Peach, followed all the directions I asked of her, even cleaned the food bowls, and took pictures everyday for me to see. Just knowing Peach was in good hands made my trip more fun not having to worry about her. If you need a sitter Karah should be at the top of your list. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I’m was around 5, I grew up with poodles and we raised them . I would help the neighbors with their cats,dogs,birds and bunnies I currently work for full-time, but on the weekends I enjoy hanging out with dogs. I do enjoy walking them taking to the park having quality time with them. I can provide a fenced yard. There is a park a block away from my home. We can walk to to have open play or play on a leash.Or one on one play in door or in my fenced yard

About: I've cared for animals of all kinds for as long as I can remember, and working with pets has always been something I'm passionate about. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and care needs. In addition to pet care, I have plenty of experience house sitting and understand the importance of keeping a home safe, clean, and well-maintained while owners are away. I treat every home with the same respect and care that I would my own. I've also volunteered with Guide Dogs for the Blind and local animal shelters, where I gained hands-on experience working with animals of all ages, sizes, and demeanors. These experiences have taught me patience, reliability, and how to respond calmly to each animal's unique needs. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and anxious, or somewhere in between, I'm confident in providing compassionate, attentive care to help them feel comfortable and loved while you're away. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your pets and home are in caring, responsible hands. I'm currently a student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and also work part-time, so my daytime schedule varies from week to week. However, I often have long breaks between classes and work, which allows me to stop by throughout the day if your pet needs a potty break, feeding, medication, or some extra attention. Most mornings, I leave around 8:30 a.m., but I'm typically in and out during the day before returning for the evening around 4:00 p.m. From then on, I'm home consistently for the rest of the night. I'll always communicate my schedule in advance so you know exactly when your pet will be cared for. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions, and I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean environment. I respect every home as if it were my own, keeping it tidy and secure throughout my stay. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve.

About: I grew up on a small farm with dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, and goats, so I've got a lifetime of experience with all kinds of furry friends. Professionally, I've worked at a couple different dog boarding/daycare/training places before switching to a job that was more fitting to what I went to school for. I’m comfortable with various types of pets in terms of breed, age, temperament, and lifestyle (up-keeping training, giving meds, disabilities, etc). I'm currently working full time but am free most mornings in the week for walks or playtime. I'm free most weekends for overnight pet sitting and am open to extended at homesitting as well. Despite working most of the week, I'm pretty flexible and open to working around different schedules in order to meet the needs of your pets as well as meet the needs of the owner. I'm down to run, play, walk, clean, cuddle, groom, escort, chauffeur or even just chill with your animals, whatever they need. :) If I'm staying in their home, my goals is to maintain their routine, whether that's specific feeding/medication times or upkeeping current training commands. I've taken care of dogs of almost all ages and activity levels so I can adapt to most needs that your pup may have.
