I follow feeding, medication, and walk instructions closely, and I always make sure your pet feels safe, seen, and cared for.

“Cary is a lifesaver!! She made sure my pets were taken care of when I was away at a wedding all day. Multiple check ins, plenty of photos, lots of cuddles given and she even got to spend time with my very shy cat. It is evident she cares seriously for your animals and provides the very best of care. She’s a very kind and sweet woman too! Thank you so much for helping me!”


About: I grew up with three dogs in the house! They were my wonderful furry siblings for 18 years and taught me how to care for them at all stages of their lives. I am comfortable caring for puppies and senior dogs. I have been pet sitting off and on since childhood for a variety of animals including cats, fish, rodents, reptiles, chickens, goats and a pig! Any additional pets won’t scare me off! If you would like some basic training or training up-keep, I am happy to do so. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I currently work at a day job and can only offer Fridays and Saturday mornings for walks and drop-ins. I would love to open up my availability to include more days of the week if I can schedule enough pets to support myself on those days. In my home, we have a large, fenced property where your dog would get to spend a fun day outdoors with supervision. The yard is a mix of dirt and grass with plenty of shaded area for rest. If I come to your property, I will follow set rules and schedules. I can clean up after your pet, make sure they have water and food, and administer medication if needed. My walks are typically 15-20 minutes and drop ins are 30-45 minutes.

About: I love animals, very responsible and will treat it as if it’s my own. Safe and comfortable home. Have had cats and dogs my whole life. You can be confident your baby will be in good hands. I work from home and your pet will be taken care of and kept in good company the entire time they’re away from you. You can travel with comfort. Your pet will be with me the entire time with a watchful eye and comfort, and they will feel like they are at home away from home

About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. From energetic puppies to mellow seniors, I’ve had experience with all types of pets and personalities. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and reliable presence, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work part-time, which gives me the flexibility to provide reliable, consistent care for your pet throughout the week. I’m typically available on weekdays for walks, drop-ins, and in-home sitting, with some evening and weekend availability as well. My schedule allows me to be responsive and present, so your pet gets the attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, secure environment and follow all care instructions carefully to make sure your pet feels at ease. I have experience with shy, anxious, and reactive pets, and I always take the time to build trust and work at their pace. I only care for one pet at a time (unless they’re from the same household), so your pet gets my full attention and care. You’ll receive regular updates and plenty of photos, so you can feel confident they’re safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away.

“Brooke is awesome. Our two dogs loved her and were very calm and happy when we came home. We highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for someone to take good care of their dogs while they are away.”


About: I’ve been raised with Labrador retrievers siblings (not pets) since Barkley (my first brother) slept under my crib after my mom brought me home from the hospital. Every place I go where there is a dog, it’s my goal to make sure they like me so I am extremely attuned to how dogs are feeling as well as their needs. I helped potty train my family’s most recent labs (Buck and Buzz) as well as teach them a few tricks. I have a very flexible work schedule and would love to help out during the typical 9-5. I also would be happy to help with early morning walks. Given proper instruction and information, I’m a hyper vigilant sitter and want to make sure I am doing everything correctly as well as making sure your pup is having a fun time!

“Isabella was top notch! Best cat-sitter west of the Mississippi! 😃 She took amazing care of my grieving kitty who has lost all his buddies/companions while I was away. So happy she could and was empathetic for good ol Skiddy da cat! Thanks again. Will definitely be using her again.”


About: After raising 5 children and my beautiful border collie passing i’m an empty nester and would love to care for precious pets again. I have had nine dogs and dozens of cats love each and every one of them as if they were my children. All incredibly obedient and loved dearly. I would love to care for yours as well.♥️ I am currently working part time and after 3 PM in the afternoon I would love to walk play and care for your precious pups !! I have a very clean home at the same time live right next to a wonderful neighborhood park and I’m a mile from Dog Beach. Plus I would consider housesitting with your pets. I have excellent references of background in interior design, staging and organizing so I’m very organized and clean! Therefore the designations for your pet would be followed perfectly!!💥

About: Hello! I’m Abrielle, 28 years old. I’ve grown up with pets my whole life! Fun fact: my family has always had at least 5 dogs at a time! Considering I’m 28 now and don’t live at home😂, I have a dog of my own, Theodore. Who when I adopted was very skittish, would hide under tables and run away if approached. But now he is an outgoing bundle of joy who is officially a certified service dog! Go Theo!! I love walking dogs on trails, paths, hikes, or just around the block! I’m willing to walk, feed, bathe, cuddle, and love your dogs just as much as you(okay maybe not quite as much, but you get what I mean)!

I’m currently scheduled part time working with kids with disabilities & a personal trainer. So I have plenty of availability to play with your pets! I’m available mostly everyday of the week and my schedule is very flexible. There is a dog park down the street I can take your dogs to. Lots of outings or even staying in and relaxing if that’s what the day calls for.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with experience caring for dogs and cats of all kinds.

I previously worked at The Animal Keeper in Poway where I gained even more experience with animals of different sizes and personalities. I truly understand how much pets are part of the family and always care for them like my own. I’m currently working a hybrid job so I have some remote days throughout the week and flexible hours. I’m available for walks and drop-ins, during the week and I offer boarding and daycare on weekends and weekday afternoons after 2pm. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate to your pets schedule and needs. I’m used to working with pets who need extra patience and structure, especially my family’s rescue dog from Mexico with anxiety. I live with two cats (one with anxiety) so I know how to create a safe and peaceful space for animals to adjust. I always follow your preferences for safety and routines.

About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for senior dogs on lifetime medications, i.e., diabetes, post heartworm surgery, for several years. I love all animals.

About: I always honor and treat my clients like family. I especially love working with active, high energy dogs that are responsive to treats and training.

I also require a meet and greet for my dog walking clients. Please allow time for that with your request, if applicable. I'm home most of the day. It's easy for me to take a break from what I'm doing to play with your pup, go for a walk around the block, or out to the park for some fun. There are so many fun places to explore in and around Solana Beach and Del Mar. I may leave for an hour or two during the day for yoga or the gym.

We do have a Cavapoo, named Finley, he is a sweet natured and loving pup, who enjoys a good play date, if needed! We would love the opportunity to earn your trust and business! Alongside being a Realtor and small business owner, I proudly wear the hat of a devoted mama, to my son and our Finley! With a flexible work schedule, I prioritize offering your pet the utmost attention, care, and engagement! Your pets will always be thoughtfully cared for, in alignment with instruction provided.
