Pet Sitting Surfside

About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember! I am constantly around and animals and having to commit myself to taking care of them. I am willing to learn and adapt to taking care of each individual dog as needed to fulfill any needs. When I come to take care of, play with, and walk your dogs I will dedicate my time to loving and caring for them. I have experience with both elderly dogs and puppies as young as just a few days old. I am currently available full time during the summer for any drop ins or house sitting when needed! I am also flexible and can accept last minute bookings. When in your home I would love to take your babies for walks, to the dog park, or anything else that is a part of their normal routine to make them more comfortable!

About: I’ve been taking care of family members’ and friend’s pets for the past 10 years, aside from my own dog! Taking care of dogs and cats brings me so much joy. I currently work a full time job M-F from 8am-5pm. I can check in on your pet in the mornings, the occasional afternoon, and evenings. I carry pepper spray with me while I walk to protect myself and the pet I’m with! I am very careful with checking that doors are locked as well.

“Carrie did a great job taking care of our pup! We had a last-minute need and she was able to come by the evening beforehand and do a meet and greet, then come visit with Luna today at lunch. Although our dog is still getting comfortable with new people, he warmed up to Carrie and played a bit in the backyard. I'm sure I will request help again in the future (but hopefully, with a bit more lead time). Thanks Carrie!”

“Jadyn was professional, trustworthy, and communicative. When my cat first met her, he warmed up to her immediately, and I felt comfortable during the time I was away. Jadyn sent me daily updates and pictures which let me know he was well cared for, and put my mind at ease.”

“I recently had Natasja drop in to care for my dog, Joey, and I couldn't be more satisfied. She was professional, punctual, and clearly passionate about animals. My usually shy dog, Joey, quickly warmed up to her, which put my mind at ease. Natasja followed all care instructions perfectly, spent extra time playing with Joey, and provided regular updates and adorable photos. I highly recommend Natasja for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter and will definitely book with her again. Thank you, Natasja, for taking such wonderful care of Joey!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with a Labrador from the time I was born until I was around 10 years old, and since then I have had two other dogs, including a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever mix and a Border Collie mix. Because of this, I have experience with different sizes, breeds, and energy levels, from large dogs that need strong handling to active dogs that need plenty of attention and playtime. I have also dog sat for family and friends before, so I understand how important it is to make sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I will always check in frequently with updates, make sure your dog is fed on schedule, take time to play with them, and give them the attention they need. My schedule is very flexible. I am home for the summer from UCSD and currently shadowing a doctor, but I am able to work my schedule around what is best for dog or cat sitting. I am available on both weekdays and weekends, and I can usually make most times work. I will always communicate clearly if I have something planned on a certain day, and I will make sure we figure out a schedule that works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my top priority. I will make sure they are cared for, supervised, and given plenty of attention while you are away. I am comfortable playing with pets, throwing tennis balls or toys, taking dogs on walks, letting them outside, and watching them closely while they are out. I will always follow your instructions for feeding, routines, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal schedule, so I will make sure they are fed on time and cared for in a safe, responsible, and loving environment.

About: Hello! I adore animals of all kinds and have always seen my pets as part of my family. I've had years of experience with several sweet cats and dogs of my own. We've always rescued and found the best furry friends. For the last 10 years, I've cared for 2 sweet labs next door with frequent walks, meals, tuck-in service (bedtime kongs), and general cuddle puddles 4 days a week. I cat and dog sit for several neighbors and family members and have been doing so consistently for the last 12 years. My home is "beach cozy" (translation: small), so it's best suited for all cats and small-medium-sized dogs that enjoy getting out for walks. If you have a senior dog or cat that needs extra TLC or a quieter home, no kids, no other pets, and all the attention is on them, I am happy to provide a safe, comfy space! I work from home most days and have plenty of time to dedicate to pet, potty, and play breaks! I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most pet needs. I have experience with administering medication and daily IV fluids. I got very comfortable caring for my senior CKD kitty for over a year. Anything to make life better for these sweet souls I'm willing to do! I am a thoughtful and caring pet sitter and will take care of your fur friends like family!

Animal sitting, walking.. etc. I need more animals in my life and this is my first step in that direction! I treat pets better than humans in most cases, as I’m sure you do too. They are extensions of our family that offer unconditional love, and deserve the same in return.

About: I have a deep love for all animals and have grown up caring for pets my entire life. I have extensive experience sitting for various breeds and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to gentle seniors. I’m very comfortable managing feeding schedules, long walks, and providing the specific attention each unique pet needs to feel safe and happy. I balance my time between graduate school and teaching, which allows me to offer dedicated care during the early mornings and evenings. My schedule is very consistent, meaning I can provide your pets with a reliable routine they can count on. I also have wide-open availability on weekends for pet sitting and extended adventures, ensuring your furry friends get plenty of focused attention and exercise. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering a client's home. I am extremely diligent about following all home security protocols, ensuring doors are locked and alarms are set. I maintain a clean, organized environment and strictly follow the 'house rules' you’ve established for your pets. Whether it’s keeping curious paws away from hazards or making sure the water bowl is always fresh, I treat your home with the same respect and care that I give my own.

“Jelena was awesome. Couldn’t ask for more. She was flexible and responded quickly. She communicated thoroughly and efficiently. She showed up at the times scheduled and followed instructions, sent pics, and communicated before, during, and after her visits. I was very nervous using a stranger who had never met our dog before. Usually I try to arrange meet and greets. He has only been cared for by family and is big, intimidating looking, and can be a little quirky sometimes. But I was in a jam at the last minute so I found Jelena. So glad I did! She was great at greeting him and understanding how to interact with his size, breed, needs, and temperament. Jelena was conscientious and thoughtful with how she left our dog and our home after her visit. Look forward to having her return!”
