House Sitting Santa Ysabel

“Leigh was the absolute best! She followed our instructions to the T, sent numerous updates and pictures, and even let our furbabies sleep with her. I can't say enough great things about her. Can't wait to have her back next time.”

About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was young, and they’ve always been a big part of my life. I currently have two adorable kittens (10 and 11 months old), and they bring so much joy to my home! I’d love the opportunity to help care for your furry family member in any way I can. As someone serving in the military, I’m highly reliable, organized, and able to stick to a schedule, ensuring your pet is always in great hands. I am experienced with cats, so your fur baby will get plenty of love and attention! I’m currently in the military during the weekdays, that’s what my schedule is Thursday through Sunday. That’s typically when I have more leeway to be able to ensure that your pets will have the best care. For my cats, they roam free around the house. I have an automatic litter box. Automatic food and automatic water and all the toys that they desire.

“Marissa was amazing! Plenty of pics and updates, our dog was in great spirits when we got home and the house was spotless! We would definitely use again!”

“Anna did a wonderful job with Cleo and the house was just as we left it! She communicated regularly and was responsive to any inquiries we made, overall we are very pleased.”

“David took really good care of my pups while I was gone for about 11 days. I feel very confident that your pets will be safe with him while you are away.”

“I highly recommend Amanda for pet sitting in your home! She sent regular updates and pictures and followed instructions by keeping my Red well-fed and exercised, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She also helped to keep my home tidy! Thanks Amanda!”

Jill O.

“Crystal was amazing! She helped us last minute and worked with our changing schedule. She did a good job of accommodating all of Roxxys needs. I can tell that Roxxy made a new friend! I would definitely recommend her!”

Luke P.

“Kayla is excellent and attentive with our dogs. It is especially comforting to have a vet tech watching our babies, even more so because of our epileptic Aussie. Kayla took great care of our dogs and I would definitely have her back and recommend her to anyone as a sitter.”

Rachel A.

“Ragon was everything I thought she would be and more! I could tell from the start that I was leaving my fur baby in the right hands. I would highly recommend her and will use her again if the opportunity arises before we move.”

About: My experience caring for animals began long before I started pet sitting professionally. I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows, chickens, goats, horses, dogs, and cats. From an early age, I was responsible for daily animal care, including early-morning feedings, cleaning animal living areas, administering medications, and ensuring every animal was healthy, comfortable, and well cared for. That upbringing gave me a strong foundation in animal care, responsibility, patience, and understanding the unique needs of different animals. Throughout my adult life, I have continued to be the person friends, family, and others trust to care for their pets and homes while they travel. In 2019, I began using TrustedHousesitters, expanding my experience across the United States and internationally. I have cared for a wide variety of pets and households, including multiple dogs and cats at once, and can provide reviews from previous families upon request. What truly sets me apart is the breadth of my hands-on experience and my ability to adapt to each animal’s individual needs. I have cared for puppies, senior pets, animals requiring specialized medications, and pets with unique behavioral needs. My experience includes administering oral medications and injections, coordinating veterinary appointments, supporting recovery and special-care routines, and maintaining consistent feeding, exercise, and daily schedules. I also have experience with dog training fundamentals, including leash training and reinforcing commands such as sit, stay, wait, and heel. I am comfortable working with reactive dogs, leash sensitivity, excessive barking, and challenging walking behaviors. I understand the importance of patience, positive redirection, awareness of surroundings, and prioritizing safety when caring for animals with behavioral challenges. Beyond pet care, I provide attentive, full-service home care. Because I work remotely, I can establish my workstation in your home and remain available throughout the day, providing consistent companionship and supervision. I can manage mail and packages, maintain a clean and organized home, coordinate with contractors when needed, and communicate updates so you always know how things are going. I understand that inviting someone into your home to care for your pets requires a great deal of trust. I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully coordinate arrivals and departures, learn each pet’s routines and care instructions, and make sure their needs are met throughout my stay. I also take pride in leaving every home clean, organized, and welcoming for its owners’ return. My goal is to give you complete peace of mind. With a lifetime of animal experience, years of professional house and pet sitting, and a genuine commitment to attentive, individualized care, I bring the preparation, flexibility, and reliability needed to care for your pets and home as if they were my own.

“Jackie was great with our fur baby. She sent us pictures every day we were away. I will definitely have her again”

Tonya G.

“We are so grateful for you! We couldn’t have asked for a more thoughtful, kind, and attentive sitter. Christina took care our our new rescue dog Raya. She was shy at first, so Christina was patient and loving! We look forward to having you come over again next time. Thanks again!”

Mae G.

“This was our first experience using an in-home pet sitter. We’re truly blessed to have found Jewels. She’s extremely professional, friendly, caring, and attentive to all of Guinness’ & Jimmi’s specific routines and stringent medication regimen. It was such a relief to know our senior dogs were safe, happy, and comfortable in their own environment rather than being stressed in a kennel. We returned to relaxed pets and an immaculate house. We couldn't be more grateful for the peace of mind she provided. We will absolutely be booking with Jewels again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving in-home pet sitter!”

Stacey G.

“Chloe was great, she took great care of my pups. Was on time, followed my pets routine and was very much knowledgeable on pet behaviors. Will definitely recommend her.”

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.

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'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'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.

“Super convenient and you could tell she loves animals! I needed a sitter for the last second and she was available and wanting to take care of my JC which made her stand out to me! She's super caring and sweet! 10 out of 10 would recommend to others!”

About: I’ve been petsitting/housesitting for 8 years in San Diego CA and when I travel for petsitting. My experience with animals ranges from a wide variety of chickens, goats, pigs, a pet cow, horses, lizards, snakes and turtles as well as; cats and dogs of all shapes and sizes. A note for boarding and doggy day care; as I do not have any other pets at home I am able to accommodate dogs that have not been fixed as shown on my profile, however there would be an additional charge as I would treat it as a buy out as I can only take on pets from the same family when one has not been fixed and would be unable to accept other doggy day care or boarding requests. I am available most weekdays for drop ins and walks; with limited weekend availability depending on the week. If my schedule shows I am available through the weekend, then I am! For dog day care or boarding I am the primary caretaker but there are two extra sets of hands available. I currently working from home during this part of the year and have a flexible schedule to accommodate! We have a fully fenced in yard. If your dog is comfortable with it and my schedule allows, I’d love to take them out with me around town. I live walking distance to a shopping center and a few parks and dog parks. Let me know what works best for your furbaby . Safety is very important to me as well as keeping the animals safe. I expect that all dogs and cats I care for to be non aggressive and properly trained to be safe to all in public. If they are not I require that it be disclosed in full and discussed with me prior to the sit, drop in, or walking; I am familiar with and can accommodate almost all behaviors but I do require it to be disclosed before proceeding. My priority is the comfort of your pet within their environment as well as the safety of all within that environment including your pet. If there are any quirks or triggers that your pets exhibit it is expected that they be disclosed when booking a walk, drop in or house sit as they can be accommodated if they are disclosed before the walk/visit. Please disclose if your cat is a frequent scratcher or biter, or if you dog has a rage/bite history for the safety of all parties.

About: Howdy Rover! Growing up, my family always had cats, cats for days, mom did not have the bandwidth for dog shenanigans. But I have been passionate about canine's from my earliest memories. I have been dogsitting and walking my grandparents dog as well as neighborhood dogs since I was 12. MY first dog, raised from 3 months, is the big handsome purebred German Shepherd seen in my profile photo. Koda was adopted from a breeder in 2020. He's very friendly and well trained. My roommate has another Gshep adopted from a shelter, and an Aussie Shep, so I'm used to VERY high energy and demanding dogs. That said, our home can't accommodate anymore furry friends, so I'm only available for housesitting and visits. Looking forward to meeting your furbabies! At this time my availability is completely open. I happily make this my full-time job if possible. I've been out of formal work for a year due to a slump in the job market. I will do my utmost to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and healthy. I'll evaluate potential hazards in the home before you leave, ensure all special instructions are understood and followed, and give you and your pet the best experience possible. I'll give them the same care and attention I would give to my own.

I offer weekdays, weekends, and holiday availability. I work from home so pets can expect to receive my full attention if needed during the day. I prioritize safety, trust and a familiar environment.
