About: I provide dependable, loving care for both cats and dogs, always tailored to their unique personalities and routines. I’ve trained multiple dogs who became service animals, so I bring patience, structure, and positive reinforcement to every interaction. I also understand and respect the independence of cats, offering a calm presence, clean litter boxes, and gentle companionship (with plenty of pets, if they want them!). Whether your pet needs playtime, medication, quiet company, or a consistent routine, I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to devote to pet care. I love being outdoors, going for walks, and enjoy having animals as part of our daily routine. Caring for pets is also a great way for me to teach my kids responsibility, patience, and compassion for animals. Whether it’s a walk, feeding, or playtime, your pet will get consistent attention and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to play, rest, and feel at ease. I follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, or specific walking instructions, to help them feel secure and maintain consistency. I also take time to build trust with each animal, moving at their pace and always using positive reinforcement. You can count on me to treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own.

“It was our first time using Rover for our dog Mia and it was a great experience. Jane was so caring and communicative with us the whole time. Our dog is blind and Jane took extra attention to ensure she was taken care of. Highly recommend her!”

About: I am a recently retired High School teacher who continues to be active and has always loved being around both dogs and cats. Over the past 40 years I have owned both and have cared for pets for friends and family. I estimate my collective experience to be between 9-10 years. My years of experience lend to a mature, dependable and responsible approach to both pet and house care. I don’t currently have pets because my rental situation will not allow them but this also allows me the flexibility to sit in your home or make home visits. I have found that many people would like to allow play-time at the dog park for their pets but are challenged to find the time (or energy, with busy jobs and life). My visits or stays can include the dog park, walking near your home or playing in the yard - whichever you prefer. I also have a love for cats, whether for petting or cuddling or just being around their unique and independent personalities. I am recently retired, and while active with friends and projects and travel I will have the perfectly flexible schedule to meet your and your pets’ needs. My services include dog and cat sitting in your home and/or visits to the dog park, walking, playtime in your yard or just hanging out.

“Susanne is fantastic with my two cats! So glad I found her. I know that when I'm away my fur babies are being well cared for. I highly recommend her!”

“Myrna has been great with my senior, special needs pup. She has proven to be reliable and very thorough with her updates. I feel that my pup is in good hands with Myrna and will be booking her again in the future.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since i was young. My family, friends, and neighbors would all ask me when everyone would go out of town. We love being outside and love going to walks. I grew up with 12 dogs at one time from puppies to elderly ones! We will love your babies like our own. I currently work full time and my husband is a stay at home dad to our son. We are available at all times even 24 hours in advance. Mornings, afternoons, night time. I have a fenced in yard. We currently do not own any animals our self. We can crate your animal if needed as we have our own animal cages that fit up to XL animals. Animals are allowed inside the house and on the furniture.

“Sharlet took great care of the dogs! She let me book her with short notice and did an excellent job. She stayed longer than necessary just to play with the dogs and give them some love. When I came home they were so happy.”

“We felt so comfortable having Meryln for our cats drop in visits. She left us very detailed visits with lots of pictures. We could tell Basil was not stressed at all our time gone with her visits. Would 100% recommend”

About: I have over 15 years experience caring for pets of all kinds. I grew up living with large breed dogs in my home and have gained experiencing caring for dogs, cats, and other critters (birds, tortoises, rabbits, ferrets, etc.) all of sizes in my community as a trusted sitter and Humane Society volunteer. I have cared for dogs young and old, puppies who required constant care and seniors with mobility support needs. I am comfortable administering oral or topical medication and bathing dogs upon request and direction. I currently live with a curious 9 year old feline named Luna and am planning for our next four legged friend. Since moving to San Diego from the Bay Area, I’ve missed daily walks with my family’s dog, a Siberian Husky Malamute mix also named Luna, and cherish each opportunity I get to bring that care, joy, structure, and stimulation to a dog’s daily life. Safety, trust, and wellness are my top priorities when engaging with your pet. It is important to me to honor each pet’s unique needs, personality, and boundaries with each meeting. I look forward to being a loving, reliable human in your pet’s life. I am currently working remotely with a flexible schedule. For Summer 2025 drop-ins and walks, I am available between 8 am and 8 pm Sun-Sun. Trust and reliability are central to my work as a sitter and caregiver. As no two pets or homes are alike, it’s important to me to understand you and your pets’ unique needs and preferences and adapt my care accordingly. I want to keep your pet healthy, happy, and safe, and your home clean and comfortable. I love snapping photos to keep you updated on how your pet is doing throughout our time :)

“Thank you so much for walking Biggie! He absolutely adores you and cannot wait for his next visit from you. Would def book you again and thank you for the surprise treats! ⭐️🐾🦴🐕‍🦺🖤”

About: Hi! I’m Maria, a lifelong dog lover and experienced caregiver. I’ve raised two dogs in the past—a mixed-breed rescue and a bullmastiff—so I’m comfortable with pups of all sizes and personalities. Since moving to San Diego, I’ve been helping care for Rusty, my cousin’s dog. He’s a playful and sweet boy, and we have the best time going on walks, playing fetch, and just relaxing together. I also have a 10-year-old daughter who loves dogs and enjoys their company, but rest assured, I am the primary caregiver and all pet care activities are fully supervised by me. Over the years, I’ve also cared for senior dogs and those with medical needs. I’m comfortable administering oral medications and following special feeding or walking routines. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully and treat every dog like family. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood and love being outside. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule, so your dog will get plenty of love, attention, and cuddles while you’re away. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to see if we’re a good match! I work part-time as a professional braider and usually take no more than two clients a day. That gives me plenty of time to care for your dog — whether it’s going for a walk, playing outside, or just keeping them company at home. My schedule is flexible, especially on weekdays, and I’ll make sure your pup gets lots of attention and love. We live in a pet-friendly apartment complex in San Diego, with plenty of green space and a nearby trail that’s perfect for walks. It’s a calm, safe environment where your dog can feel at ease. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully — whether it’s about feeding times, special diets, walking routines, or medication. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and routine are my top priorities.

“Rebecca is a trusted and reliable sitter that went above and beyond to ensure that Lola was well taken care of, and our needs were met. She is an effective communicator, and it is evident that she truly loves animals. This was our first time leaving our girl in order to take a vacation but now I know who I will contact next time.”

About: I've been surrounded by and have taken care of animals my entire life. From growing up with both cats and dogs, to housesitting them for friends, family, and roommates in my 20's and 30's, to finally having my own in my 30's and 40's, I LOVE being around animals! I have past experience caring for Border Terrier's, English & French Bulldogs, Pit Bulls, Standard Poodles, Vizsla's, and Mixes of all kinds. Animals are our guardian angels sent to help guide us through this crazy world we live in. They deserve all the attention, care, love, rubs, and treats we have to offer. After all we are living in their world. Pet care is my full time job now having recently left a 23 year career with law firms as an Operations Manager. I'm a caretaker and I love being of service especially in times of need. I'm here to make your life easier and stress free whenever you need assistance with your fur baby. Be it walks during the day, drop-ins, doggy day care, boarding, or house sitting, I will work with you to meet you and your dogs needs. I also offer pick-up and drop-off service if needed. I share a larger one bedroom apartment in Hillcrest with my pet loving partner who works for Petco. Our unit has A/C, is smoke-free, has a covered outdoor patio, and we live across the street from a small grassy park-let. We only board up to two dogs at a time to ensure they have enough room to run around, relax, and feel at home. They are guaranteed to get lots of attention, play time, and love. I guarantee at least 4 outdoor activities a day when boarding; morning and evening walks, a midday walk/activity, and a bed time pee. For consistency of training and routine my care is an extension of your care/rules. I will work closely with you to understand your dogs routine, needs, and training.

About: I've had pets all my life with a Persian Cat as a child and my beloved MEMPHIS , a golden lab until a couple of years ago.

I'm a active senior that will enjoy taking walks, throwing a ball and helping the pet to feel loved and safe I am semi retired and do calls five hours per week on my schedule I haved lived in my home for 30 plus years usually with a pet. Now I travel and owning a pet has been more challenging While my yard is not fenced, many of the residents in my condo complex walk by my home with their dogs and often play together. My home is large and comfortable for adult animals

I am easily available and will send you updates, as needed, so pet owner has a peace of mind, that there fur-baby is safe and most of all happy!!

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life. I've taken care of everything from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I have experience handling easy going dogs to some of the more challenging companions that pull and lunge on walks. I also have experience administering medications whether they are oral or injections. Have additional questions? Contact me and I'm happy to answer! I work full-time but have a pretty flexible schedule. I am available mornings, lunchtime, or evenings for walks and drop-in visits. I'm also available on the weekends. I'm always very considerate of my clients home and leave things the way I found them. When it comes to coming and going from the home I am always cautious to make sure pets don't run out.

About: With over 8 years of dedicated experience in dog sitting, I bring a lifelong passion for every pet I have the opportunity to care for. From playful puppies to senior dogs requiring specialized care, I have a proven track record of providing attentive and compassionate service. My journey began with my own 16-year-old poodle, whose complex needs required my very detailed and attentive care. I ensure every dog feels comfortable, safe, and happy under my watch. I will follow all provided instructions to every detail, keeping you updated for peace of mind. I will treat your dog with the same love and care that I provided my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup! In 2016, I launched my independent dog walking and overnight care business, offering personalized care in clients' homes. My experience is further enriched by my volunteer work at the Berkeley Humane animal shelter in 2019, where I received comprehensive training in dog care. At the shelter, I mastered walking dogs of all breeds, administering medications, and providing special attention to those in need. I also developed skills in managing unpredictable behaviors and maintaining hygiene protocols, including the use of PPE around unvaccinated puppies. My background equips me to handle a wide range of situations with professionalism and care, ensuring every dog’s well-being. Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I'll keep you updated with cuddly and joyful pictures, so you can feel reassured while your loved ones are in my care. I can’t wait to meet your pups and provide them with the best care possible!
