“Joshuah is a great guy, he truly cares for the dogs he walks. We ran out of food while abroad and he stepped in to buy just the right kind Otto needed (real food). Thank you Joshua! Look forward to another visit.”

About: I have been the "go-to" neighborhood pet sitter since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family would consistently ask me to watch their dogs, stop by for feeding visits, or take them on long walks when they were out of town. Growing up in Santa Cruz, I have always had an active lifestyle and love getting outside with high-energy dogs just as much as I’m comfortable caring for senior pets who need a slower pace. I worked as a lifeguard for two years, which taught me responsibility, awareness, and how to stay calm in any situation. As a fourth-year Business Administration student at Cal Poly, I’m dependable, organized, and take commitments seriously. You can expect clear communication, photo updates, and someone who really cares about your pet’s safety and happiness. I’m currently taking a lighter class schedule at Cal Poly, which gives me flexible availability throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings most weekdays, and I’m also open on weekends to help in any way you need. Because my schedule is consistent, I’m able to commit to recurring walks or regular check-ins and be dependable week after week. Once we confirm a time, you can count on me to be there. Your pet’s safety and comfort is most important to me. During walks, I stay attentive to surroundings, avoid unsafe areas, and adjust my pace based on your dog’s energy level and needs. I’m comfortable handling large or strong dogs and always keep dogs securely leashed unless you instruct me otherwise. For drop-in visits or house sitting, I follow feeding and care instructions carefully and maintain your pet’s normal routine to minimize stress. I also respect your home as if it were my own and provide consistent photo updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.

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.

“Nereida took such amazing care of both our dogs. Would definitely rebook with her again!”

About: As a lifelong pet owner and passionate animal lover, I bring years of hands - on experience caring for both cats and dogs. I've had the pleasure of working with a wide variety of animals and I'm completely comfortable walking, feeding, playing with, and nurturing them as if they were my own. In addition to over ten years of pet sitting and house sitting, I have extensive volunteer experience with local animal shelters and rescue organizations. Through this work, I’ve cared for animals of all breeds, temperaments, and needs, gaining valuable experience in everything from basic care to administering medication and supporting special needs pets. I’m energetic, dependable, and deeply committed to providing the highest level of care. You can trust that your pets will be treated with the same love, attention, and respect I give to mine.

About: I’m currently living here in SLO as a cal poly student so none of my dogs live with me. However, I’ve been around dogs since I was born. Growing up we had dogs of many breeds from chihuahuas, to labradors, to German shorthair pointers. My yellow lab Bianca has had two litters and we took care of all of the little pups before they found their forever homes! All of our precious dogs had been with us since they were pups so I’m very confident in taking care of them at any age. I’m very good at picking up on dog cues when they need to go potty, hungry, thirsty, stressed, tired, etc. Cal Poly student 🐾 With 2–6 hours of classes Mon–Thurs, I have plenty of time to care for your pups! Available weekends too for walks, sitting, or last-minute date nights—whatever your fur baby needs 🤍 I live in a duplex with a fully fenced shared backyard that is a great size for dogs to run, play, and go potty. There are no dogs on my side of the unit indoors, so your pup would have a calm, one-on-one environment with just me. The backyard is shared with one other friendly, neutered male medium-sized dog who is very well-behaved 🤍 If that setup isn’t the best fit, I’m also happy to do drop-in visits, walks, or stay in your home with your pup instead.

“Hannah was amazing! She is a wonderful person and through the pictures that were sent during her visits with my cat, I could tell he felt comfortable in her presence! I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone!”

About: I’ve had experience caring for large dogs my whole life and currently handle most of the day-to-day care for my own dog, so I’m very comfortable with feeding routines, walks, exercise, and keeping dogs happy and well-behaved. I’ve also been pet sitting since high school, caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. What sets me apart is how attentive and hands-on I am. I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m especially confident with bigger dogs and can adapt to each dog’s routine, whether that means active playtime or a calmer, more relaxed environment. Until early June, I have school and work during the week, along with some busy weekends, but I’m still available for pet care with enough notice and can work around my schedule. Starting in the summer, I’ll have a much more open and flexible schedule and am looking to take on more pet sitting opportunities. I’m happy to accommodate different routines and make sure your pet gets consistent, reliable care. I provide a clean, safe, and cozy environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I’m a very active person, so I love taking dogs on walks and making sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I also make time for calmer moments, like relaxing and giving pets the affection and companionship they’re used to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick closely to their usual routine to help them feel at ease, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions. My goal is always to make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I have worked in pet care for many years, both at shelters and in the home. I started animal volunteering around the age of twelve and have cared for feral, medicated, senior, and new-to-the-world pets! I work a Tuesday-Thursday schedule at a coffeehouse and am fully available any other time during the week. I have reliable transportation and an open schedule for any pet needs! I am keen on understanding a pets needs and am a big believer in the idea that animals need the same energy and care that we give to each other, so your pets will certainly feel like royalty!

About: I love animals and I've taken care of family, friends, and neighbour's pets since I was 10! I have experience with lots of animals but especially with puppies and very large dogs (my own dog is 150 lbs!!) I’m taking a few Cuesta classes online so I can bring my laptop and do them anywhere! I can do boarding all weekends and I can do home-sitting anytime and come check in 3-4 times a day! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep yours company! I love to walk my dogs and always make sure they get enough play time everyday!

“We had a fantastic experience with Laurel looking after our two dogs, Bella and Nori. She went above and beyond in ensuring that our pets were well-cared for, happy, and healthy during our time away. Laurel was attentive to their needs, provided excellent communication, and even sent us regular updates and photos, which made us feel completely at ease. Bella and Nori were clearly comfortable and content when we returned, a true testament to the care and affection Laurel provided. We wholeheartedly recommend Laurel to anyone in need of a trustworthy and dedicated dog sitter-we will be using her again!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Jazzlyne! She was incredibly responsive, asked thoughtful questions to make sure our kitty had everything she needed, and truly went above and beyond. The photos she sent were great! It was clear she took the time to get to know our pet and make her feel comfortable. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
