“Dana was great, again. This was the first time we asked her to hang with our pups while we were gone for a week. Her report cards were detailed and left me knowing our pups were well taken care of and happy. I highly recommend Dana or short or long stays. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

About: I've always loved animals and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and my own. I have two cats and have cared for my boyfriend's two cats for about a year, as well as a friend's cat for another year. I am also comfortable caring for dogs and enjoy spending time with pets of different personalities and energy levels. I currently offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting at the clients home. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, or simply having someone keep them company, I will make sure they receive the care and attention they need while you are away. I know every pet has a different routine, and I am very detail oriented, so I will always take the time to follow your instructions and help them feel safe and comfortable. I currently work part-time, so I have a flexible schedule and can spend quality time with your pets. My goal is to treat every pet like they are my own and provide reliable, loving care. I will also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your lovely pets! I currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I can work around your pet's normal routine to make sure they get the attention and care they deserve. I've always loved animals and know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them. I take the time to learn each pet's routine and personality so they feel as comfortable as possible while you're away. I have two cats, a bearded dragon, and a frog, so caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. I'll treat your pets like they're my own, keep your home clean and respected, and send plenty of updates and photos so you know they're happy and doing well.

About: Hi! I come from a dog loving family! I have always had a passion for animals since I was young! I have grown up caring for dogs and have experience looking after both my own pets and my friends and families. I would love to spend time with your animals and give them the love and attention they deserve! I am currently a college student and athlete so I typically have practice and classes mid mornings on weekdays but I am free to walk your dog or take care of them anytime after 2:30pm Monday Wednesdays and Fridays or before 10am on those days aswell! I am also available all day on weekends! I have a fenced in yard for my pets to run around in and use the bathroom when needed! I also love taking them on walks or hikes with me! However I don’t offer in house service so this doesn’t apply.

“Adriana is fantastic! She takes such wonderful care of Ginger, and I couldn't ask for a better sitter/walker. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves working with dogs. I always have complete peace of mind knowing Ginger is in her hands. I highly recommend Adrianna to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

“From the first time we met Mark, he was nothing but pleasant and professional, and was amazing with our pets . Mark watched our (challenging) dog and cat while we were out of the country. He faced some unexpected challenges with our dog, who has severe anxiety issues, but was incredibly patient and tried multiple ways to get our dog more comfortable. In the end, he succeeded in helping our dog and was very clear and thorough in this communication throughout. We felt confident that our pets were well taken care of while we were gone.”

“Rachel is so good with Lovey! They were immediate best friends. Rachel is very communicative, friendly, and flexible with scheduling. Just a perfect fit for what we need! Thanks again Rachel!”

About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 15 and have experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, and fish. I’m comfortable working with pets with different personalities, routines, and energy levels, and I’m always open to caring for other types of pets as well. I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, feeding, and companionship based on their individual needs. I also prioritize keeping their space clean, safe, and comfortable and carefully following any instructions provided by their owners. Hi! My name is Jessenya, I’m 21, and I’m currently a college student studying business while also working part-time as a nanny. I’ve always loved animals and have pets of my own, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I also really enjoy meeting new pet friends and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I’m open to dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting while families are away, and I’m happy to discuss other care needs depending on the details and what works best for you and your pet. I prefer to care for pets in their own home, where they can stay in a familiar and comfortable environment. I follow each family’s instructions closely and do my best to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and any other specific care. I also make sure their space stays clean, safe, and secure while giving them plenty of attention and companionship.

“Marc and his wife were great; prompt, communicative and responsible. They’ve helped a couple times with short notice and are dependable. We trust them with our doggo and will be using again.”

About: Hello! I’m an experienced, lifelong dog lover dedicated to giving your pet the calm, patient, and structured care they deserve. I am the proud owner of Reese, a very sensitive dog who has taught me exactly what it takes to care for pups who need a little extra time, gentleness, and understanding to feel safe. If your dog gets anxious, easily startled, or just prefers a calm and reassuring presence, they will be in excellent hands with me. Because I care deeply about your pup's safety and comfort, I always strictly monitor sidewalk temperatures to protect sensitive paws from hot asphalt. If the pavement is too warm, we will stick entirely to shaded dirt paths or grassy areas. Reese and I walk almost every single day along the beautiful Buena Vista Park and Open Space trail system. I know the best shaded paths, the quietest routes to avoid sensory overload, and how to safely navigate local trails. Whether your dog is a high-energy explorer or a shy pup who needs a slow approach, I provide tailored walks filled with patience, safety, and plenty of updates. I can't wait to meet your furry family member! When I am not caring for animals, I am a homemaker and a parent educator for my son, who attends a hybrid homeschool charter. Because he is at school three days a week—Tuesday through Thursday—I am perfectly open and available to walk your dogs while you are away at work. The rest of my week is highly flexible. Since my weekends are completely open, I make a deeply responsible, present, and attentive overnight house sitter and walker. I can't wait to give your pets the gentle, high-quality care they deserve! Animals are family, and I know firsthand how deeply important they are to our lives. My rescued dog, Reese, saved my life in many ways, and she taught me what true, patient pet care looks like. Because Reese came from an abused background, she cannot handle loud noises or yelling on the TV. To make her feel safe, I learned to maintain a calm, gentle, and warm temperament at all times. This experience makes me uniquely qualified to care for sensitive, shy, or anxious dogs who need a soft touch and a peaceful environment.I treat every client's pet with the exact same respect, intuition, and love that I give Reese. Their emotional and physical safety is my top priority. For example, I always check the sidewalk temperatures with my hand before we ever step out for a walk to protect sensitive paws.

“Erin went above and beyond. She dropped in to take care of my two cats for 9 days while I was out of town. She was trustworthy, caring, professional, and communicated like a pro. Will book again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many many years not only my own dog but also many of my neighbors. Neighbors, friends, and family rely on me to walk, feed, and love their pets as my own. I’m experienced and ready to love your dog! I treat every animal with patience, consistency, and genuine affection. I’m currently a student at CSUSM so having any type of animal interaction would make my days so much brighter. Being away from home I am missing my daily walks with my own dog, so with my schedule I can do morning and afternoon walks as well as any overnight boarding! I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with a secure dog park, perfect for playtime and exercise. Since I don’t have any pets of my own, your furry friend will get my full attention and care. I always keep a close eye on pets during walks and play to ensure they’re safe, happy, and comfortable in a calm, clean environment.

About: I've had animals ranging from rabbits, dogs & cats since I was young (I currently have 2 rabbits and 2 older dogs at home). I have patience for animals and having used Rover before, I know what a good sitter/walker is and I am to go beyond my own expectations of my previous sitters. I have a very free schedule and am aiming to fill it up with cute animals to walk and play with. Big time animal lover and honestly, available to work around your needs before sorting through my day to day schedule. I only operate with love and patience for my own animals so you can rest assured I will treat your pets with the same. I am very much an animal person, hence my at home setup of 2 rabbits and 2 older dogs.

About: I've cared for dogs my entire life. I'm experienced with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and giving medication when needed. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I'm patient, responsible, and will treat your pets with same love and attention I give my own! I'm currently a college student with a flexible schedule that allows me to provide pet care throughout the week. My availability varies by day due to classes and my part time job, but I'm happy to coordinate with you in advance to find a time that works best for your pet. I'm especially available for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting around my work schedule. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I'm respectful of each pet's routine and will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medication, and other care. When house sitting or doing drop in visits, I'll make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and never left without care you requested. I'll also keep you updated so you know how your pet is doing while you're away.

About: I grew up with dogs and cats being a member of the family! Every pet has a unique personality so whether yours likes to nap, run, nap, cuddle, hike bark at things, go for car rides, get lots of pets, sniff the same spot for 10 minutes, play fetch, or just have someone to hang out with, I'm happy to meet them wherever they're at. Pets have always been a constant throughout my life, and I've had my own 90lb German Shepard mix for almost 14 years. I'm very comfortable with all ages, quirks, special needs, mobility needs etc. I'm reliable, communicative, I'll keep you as updated as you want to be, follow your routine closely and care for your pet with the same love I care for mine I work from home most days of the week, have a very flexible schedule and can almost always work around whatever is needed for your pet Your pet's safety and personality always come first. Catering to whatever their needs are, I always pay close attention on walks, I'm well vetted with dogs and cats who might be escape artists, and I'm very comfortable with sticking to whatever routine you have for them

“Such a great experience. Heather was super communicative, patient, and followed all of Tank’s care instructions exactly. Tank was happy and well‑cared for. We absolutely recommend her and will book again.”

About: I grew up with a dog and have helped with taking care of friends and neighbors dogs. I have experience with elderly dogs, and dogs of all ages and sizes. I currently work part-time, and would love to include pet care into my daily routine. Mondays and Fridays are completely open. I look forward to working with you to establish a plan of care. In your home, I will make sure to follow any guidelines put forth. I will be respectful of your home and wishes in caring for your pet.

“Lauren was great! I booked last minute and was unsure if I was going to be able to find a sitter to meet all expectations. I definitely would recommend her service. Very kind, thorough, and gave my senior dog the attention he needs (medications, feeding, a walk, & love). Thank you Lauren!!!”

“We have had Jewels twice now as drop-in sitter for our Bella (cat) and both times Jewels has cared for Bella perfectly. The food, water and litter is handled with care and excellent hygiene. Bella is so picky with sitters and has popped out to interact with Jewels a few times. We see that as a super positive sign that Jewels has a kind energy. Cats don't hide their feelings so if Bella likes Jewels, she is a winner in our book. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve had and loved dogs my whole life, so taking care of them feels completely natural to me. Growing up around dogs taught me how to be patient, responsible, and to understand their different personalities and needs. Whether it’s going on long walks, playing outside, or just giving them attention and comfort, I truly enjoy every part of it. I know how important it is to keep dogs happy, safe, and cared for, and I take that seriously. Because of my experience and genuine love for animals, I know I would be a great dog sitter or walker who treats every dog like my own. I’m currently a full time student however I do have a very flexible schedule as most of my classes are online and I am at home most of the time. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special routines or medications. I spend quality time with each pet to make sure they get enough attention and exercise, and I keep their space clean and cozy. I also send updates and photos to the owner so they know their pet is happy and well cared for. My main goal is to make each pet feel at home, whether they’re with me or in their own space.
