Every pet parent understands the anxiety and unknowns that come along with hiring a new sitter for the first time. In our first conversations, Johnathan was very easy to talk to and work with. I already had a good feeling before he came to the house for a meet-and-greet with the pets, but when he arrived and everyone took to him very quickly in the first couple minutes, we knew we had a winner and my stress about leaving town was immediately put at ease. The kids obviously approved, but I was very impressed by his calm, down-to-earth demeanor, can-do attitude, and diligent attention to detail. I blasted him with a lot of info, instructions, details, things to look out for, etc, and he absorbed it all. I did type up detailed instructions for him to reference while we were gone and he followed them to the letter. Not only was he pet sitting, but he stayed and house sat here at our home for 4 days with the kids. I had no concerns or reservations about him before leaving, and that was only reinforced in spaids when we returned home and the household was fully intact, pristine, well-cared for, and the pets were all obviously very much at ease, content, and happy. He even made the bed back as it was, and left no trace behind him anywhere. While we were away, he sent frequent updates and photos daily, which were very appreciated. He was responsive, communicative, easy to work with, very pleasant and respectful, and obviously he took exceptionally great care of our big dog and 2 kitties. He is very sweet and doting with them, and they clearly adore him in return. If you can't tell already, I am very fortunate and appreciative of finding Johnathan to pet/house sit for us. I have full faith in his commitment to and ability to uphold the highest of standards of pet care, and I can't recommend him highly enough to other pet parents. Obviously, I will be hiring Johnathan again repeatedly, and I'm sure the pets will be very excited to see him again when he does. 12 out of 10. Would hire again. Thanks, Johnathan!

Audrey did an amazing job with our dog, Poe. He can be a bit standoffish at first when meeting new people. She was patient with him and he eventually warmed up to her and became his sweet self again! She also sent lots of photos throughout the weekend, which I really appreciated!

About: While I may not have years of formal pet care experience, I’ve developed a strong bond with dogs through daily walks, pet photography, and volunteering in my community. I’m the creator of Furry Friends San Diego, where I capture happy, playful moments of dogs around the city. This work helps me deeply understand dog behavior, expressions, and what makes them feel safe and joyful. I’m patient, observant, and always prioritize a dog’s comfort and safety. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, or a senior dog needing a gentle pace, I’ll adapt each walk to fit their personality. I believe in treating every dog like my own—giving them attention, love, and a fun experience outdoors. I’m also highly reliable and communicative, and I’m happy to provide photo updates after walks. I look forward to giving your dog a happy tail-wagging break during the day! I’ve built my weekly routine around caring for dogs in my local community. I currently focus full-time on dog walking and building positive, lasting relationships with both pets and their owners. My schedule is flexible, so I’m able to accommodate regular daily walks, short-notice requests, and even multiple walks a day if needed. Each walk is a dedicated, calm, and focused time for your dog to get fresh air, exercise, and attention. I also capture fun photo moments as part of my routine to share with owners — a small way to brighten your day while you’re away. As a dog walker, safety and trust are my top priorities. I always double-check leash fittings and collars before we start, and I use safe walking routes that avoid heavy traffic or stressful environments. I never walk dogs off-leash unless in a secure, owner-approved area. I treat each dog as if they were my own — with patience, respect, and attentiveness to their comfort. If I’m visiting a client’s home, I make sure your pet feels calm and respected by sticking to any routines or instructions you provide. I communicate clearly, provide updates, and will always notify you of anything unusual I notice during the walk. Your dog’s well-being comes first, always.

This was our first time leaving our Weimaraner Freya with someone who wasn’t immediate family. She was a little bit anxious and Melissa was amazing at adapting the schedule to make sure that Freya felt the most comfortable. She sent updates and pictures which made us feel more at ease. We definitely will want to use Melissa again in the future!

We couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Amy was truly a dream. From start to finish, she went above and beyond in every way. She followed all of our instructions to a T—kept up with our pup’s training, stuck to her schedule, took her on long, enriching walks, and made sure she got plenty of love and structure. We received thoughtful daily updates with photos, which made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Not only was our dog incredibly well cared for, but our home was left spotless and orderly—it honestly felt like we came home to a reset space. She met our needs and then some. We would book with her again in a heartbeat and feel so lucky to have found someone so reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. Highly recommend!

About: Hi there ! My name is Mai and I’ve been a lover of all animals ever since I can remember. I pride myself on being calm, patient, kind, intuitive and caring. These traits are why every animal I meet tends to quickly feel safe with me. Growing up, I had 1 American Eskimo spitz, 1 mini Aussie, 2 rats, 2 hamsters and 2 cats in all. I will love and care for your pet like it’s my own and can seamlessly adapt to any schedule ! Im currently looking for part time work (I’m a full time house manager/ nanny). My schedule varies but usually free 7 days a week with notice :) I can easily and happily adapt to any care taking needs that will make you feel the most comfortable when leaving me with your pet. I am an extremely trustworthy person. I know this to be true as I’ve been a nanny for infants to toddlers for 6 years now. I know these are human lives, but pets are your children and my intentions for a fostering a safe environment are the same. My goal is to make you feel worry free with me!

About: Hi There! I've had all kinds of pets for my entire life. From rambunctious sheepdogs and sensitive chihuahuas, to gentle senior cats and curious kittens. I currently share my home with Stella, an 11 year old chihuahua/terrier mix, Raymond, a 15 year old domestic short hair cat, and Oscar, a nine-month old domestic short hair kitten, so I understand the unique needs of both senior pets and energetic youngsters! Whether it’s administering medications, offering extra patience for older pets, or keeping playful pups and curious kittens engaged and enriched, I bring attentiveness, compassion, and a calm, reassuring presence to every pet I care for. I’d love to give your pet the same level of love and care I give my own! I am currently available at all times during the week to attend to your pets. My flexible schedule allows me to take the time your pets need to eat, play and have genuine interactions with humans. I always ensure that collars with identifying tags are on before walks, and will never leave an animal out of my sight while caring for them. For households with cats, I am extremely cautious opening doors to the outside so as not to have an escapee on our hands. My number one priority is the safety of your pets, and that requires vigilance and focus.

Bonnie was great with our dog, Bruno, who has some particular needs since he is reactive to other dogs. She took pictures to update us which was amazing. She also went above and beyond to help when we encountered a whole half day of travel delays. Our house was left in great shape too. We highly recommend her!

Laura spent 5 days taking care of my older lab mix in our home. Everything was fantastic. The dog was happy, of course she left the house clean as could be. One of the best things was that before I left Laura asked about how much/ what type of communication I prefer. So we were aligned on that (I like lots ! ). I highly highly recommend Laura !

Hello, I would recommend Ridvan to anyone for taking care of their animals. Ridvan has a lot of love to give the animals. One of his hobbies is that he goes to dogs beach in OB and taking pictures of the animals with his professional camera. And, he sends them to their owners free of charge.

Mai was wonderful with my dog and two cats! They were well cared for and so happy. I came back to a pristine home and 3 happy animals - could not ask for more! Would definitely recommend her services.

Spencer is an amazing dog sitter with a clear love and respect for animals. Our dog, Nala, absolutely adores him and he's always so responsible, patient, and loving towards her. We've always appreciated his professionalism and great communication skills and are able to leave Nala in his care without any of the anxiety or stress that comes with typical pet-sitting arrangements. If you want someone who actually gets to know and love your pet the same way you do, Spencer is your guy!

Bonnie was great with our dog, Bruno, who has some particular needs since he is reactive to other dogs. She took pictures to update us which was amazing. She also went above and beyond to help when we encountered a whole half day of travel delays. Our house was left in great shape too. We highly recommend her!

Ellie was communicative and responsive and did a great job with our pups - not an easy task with our 7 month old dachshund boy who seemingly has endless energy! Thankful that she was able to watch our dogs on short notice.

Laura spent 5 days taking care of my older lab mix in our home. Everything was fantastic. The dog was happy, of course she left the house clean as could be. One of the best things was that before I left Laura asked about how much/ what type of communication I prefer. So we were aligned on that (I like lots ! ). I highly highly recommend Laura !

Jalene is awesome. She communicates well, very professional and our dog loved her. I immediately felt comfortable with her and didn’t worry about our dog once while we were on vacation. I highly recommend her for pet/house sitting

I highly recommend U-Leea as a pet caregiver. She is responsible, loving, and attentive and everytimr I have her watch my dog I know he comes home happy. My pets felt right at home with her and were well-cared for.

Paz was wonderful with our puppy Ollie! He has some separation anxiety issue which were working on but he warmed up to her so quickly and it was so great to leave knowing is was in capable hands. Would definitely book Paz again for house-sitting!
