House Sitting Santa Margarita

“Faith was wonderful watching over our Luna. We appreciated her quick responses, pictures and updates and willingness to come in a day early to meet us and ask any questions. Will definitely rebook when we can.”

“Coral was fantastic with our dogs and cat- they loved her! She took great care of them and our home while we were away. She is everything we were looking for in a pet sitter- warm and kind, responsible, excited to have fun with our animals, and great at keeping us updated and informed throughout her time at our house. We appreciate her and look forward to having her sit for us again soon!”

Sarah C.

“Brittany was able to dog sit for us on back to back nights on short notice both times. Bobby warmed up to her immediately and didn’t want her to leave at the end of the night. Brittany was super responsive throughout the booking process and during the evening. We would definitely book Brittany again.”

About: I have over 10 years of experience in caring for all kinds of pets, including senior pets, and special needs. I am familiar with administering medications as well. No pet is too big, small, scary, or needy for me! Housesitting and frequent visits are preferred. I currently work part-time so that I will have plenty of time for your pets! I am a college student, so I am busy midday but free the rest of the time to take care of your fur babies! For frequent visits, I spend between 2-4 hours in your home caring for and playing with your pets. For housesitting, I will spend between 4-8 hours a day with your pets! I am a meticulous planner, so I always make sure to have plenty of time to spend with pets.

About: I have a very diverse background in pet care. I grew up with a German Shorthaired Pointer and currently have a Blue Heeler, but my parents also have a French Bulldog so I deeply understand both the needs of high energy dogs and lower energy dogs. I have fostered dogs and cats since I was 12 years old, whose needs varied frequently, I have experience with small day old puppies, to older senior dogs. I have valuable experience in training and socializing dogs, I have put my own dog through training with multiple trainers that I have gotten to learn from, and use that knowledge to then train and socialize my foster puppies. I am currently a full time Animal Science student at Cal Poly, with most of my classes being in the mornings, making my schedule free on the weekends, Fridays before 11:30am and/or after 2pm, Tuesdays and Thursdays after 2pm, and varying availability Mondays and Wednesdays. I already go on multiple walks throughout the day and on the weekends I love to hike and go to the beach, all of which I would love to be able to take a pup on as well! I am able to work with pets in any fashion that fits the pet owners needs. I understand every pet differs, so I can take into account any special instructions and thoroughly follow them to keep your pet and home safe.

“I’m so happy Carlos was able to look after my dogs! We came home to happy pups and a clean house. It’s such peace of mind to trust someone with my babies!”

About: Hello! I'm Regan, an Animal Science student at Cal Poly SLO with a lifelong love for animals. I've grown up surrounded by dogs, cats, horses, fish, and chickens, which has given me years of hands-on experience caring for animals. This has made me comfortable with pets of all different sizes, personalities, energy levels, and needs. Along with my personal experience, studying Animal Science has given me a stronger foundation in animal health, behavior, handling, and proper care. I'm extremely comfortable with feeding, walking, following medication instructions, maintaining routines, and giving pets plenty of attention while their owners are away. I know that every pet is different, so I make an effort to learn their individual routines and personalities rather than treating every animal the same. I pay close attention to changes in behavior and well-being, and I'm very detail-oriented when following owner instructions to ensure you know your pet is in great hands while you're away. Most importantly, I genuinely love animals and understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else's care. I'll treat your pets with the same attention, patience, and care that I give my own animals. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! As a college student, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m able to plan walks, drop-in visits, feeding times, and overnight care around my classes, and I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal schedule as much as possible. I spend a lot of my free time around animals already, so incorporating pet care into my day comes naturally to me. I’m also very organized with my schedule and will only accept bookings when I know I can give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I carefully follow all owner instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, exercise, and any household rules or preferences. I also make sure doors, gates, leashes, and other areas are secure before letting pets outside or leaving the home. I understand that being trusted with both someone’s pet and their home is a big responsibility. I’m respectful of each client’s space and will always leave their home just as I found it. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and well-being and will communicate with owners if I notice anything unusual. I’m happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: ​Lifelong pet lover and pet mom offering fun walks, playful energy, and a safe environment. I’ll treat your furry family member just like my own! Working part-time for the school district leaves my afternoons and weekends wide open and completely dedicated to feeding, walking, chilling and playing with your pets. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. Safety means constant supervision, secure environments, and clear communication. I strictly follow your house rules and pet routines to keep them happy, safe, and comfortable.

“An absolute lovely person. Took great care of my dog, sent pictures, kept in touch while we were gone. Came back home to a happy, stress free dog.”

Carol B.

“Clare was professional, kind, communicative—and most importantly, our doggies were happy upon our return. She also left the house in meticulous condition. My one caveat is that we did not get much by the way of photos and daily dog updates—if you need someone who does this, Clare might not be a fit. If you are seeking someone you can trust, count on Clare.”

“Payton is great! We booked her for a house sitting for our dog and she took wonderful care of our place and our girl! She is very kind and responsible, and responsive! Would highly recommend Payton to anyone!”

About: I have about 3 years of experience caring for dogs. I have owned, fostered, dog-sat, house-sat, and walked dogs. I love spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I am responsible, patient, and always make sure pets get the care and attention they need. I am also comfortable following specific instructions from pet parents. I am currently in college and have a very flexible schedule with full availability for pet care. I can be flexible with walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting depending on what your dog needs. I am happy to work with your schedule and make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you are away. I take pet safety very seriously and always want dogs to feel comfortable and secure while they are in my care. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special needs. I am attentive to dogs and their behavior and will always prioritize their safety. I also understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and your home, so I will treat both with care and respect.

“Ten ⭐️! Robyn came to our rescue with a last minute booking. She took extraordinary care of our senior Golden and two cats. We were sent videos of play time, brushing and belly rub time… our pets adored her. I read all her five star reviews and have to agree she is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had- and we’ve had many!”

“Ysabel took excellent care of our anxious little pup. He curled up in her lap, napped, enjoyed treats, and felt safe and cared for. Ysabel asked all the right questions of us about his needs and routine, and she sent us photo updates during her time with him. Ysabel is a reliable, professional, and courteous sitter. We will absolutely ask her to dog sit for us again!”
