House Sitting University City

“Josette has been our go-to Pet Sitter for over a year. She takes great care of our pets and is also respectful of our space. She cleans up after our pets outside and sprays down the messes. She also cleans up after herself and washes the linens, when we don’t expect her to do so. She is all around a kind, considerate, and a thoughtful professional. I highly recommend Josette as your Pet Sitter.”

“Jennifer did great with our pup. She communicated daily showing our dog snuggled up next to her which she wouldn’t have done if she wasn’t comfortable with Jennifer. House was exactly as we left it and she even managed our numerous container plants for us during our week long trip. Great job.”

“Only great things to say. Annalise treated our dogs like they are her own. They took to her immediately. She was willing to come meet us a couple of times before our weekend away, so that the dogs would feel comfortable with her which likely made all the difference. We are already booking more visits!”

About: LIfelong and proud dog owner. I had raised our family dogs (multiple breeds), was the primary caretaker of each, and friends, neighbors, and co-workers have relied on me to take care of their pets when away. I am currently a retiree (young) and have enough stamina and flexibility to play with your fur kids! I'm available primarily Monday through Friday, but will make time for Saturdays and Sundays. I always maintain fresh, plentiful water for my pets, take them for walks for at least half an hour, talk to them, maintain a clean, and hygienic environment, and most certainly are engaged with them and do not leave them alone very long. I'm currently a part-time caretaker for my elderly mother. My brother and I share the responsibilities, so I have plenty of flexibility to be with your pet(s). I cared for my Cocker Spaniel, Lady, until her passing in 2019 (19 years young!). Primarily in condominiums, so I currently do not have a pet. However, I would care for yours just like I did with her by taking good quality walks, and having quality play time in your yard, or nearby parks, or beaches.

“Alera was attentive, arrived on time, and took great care of Louie. I appreciated her reliability and would happily book with her again.”

“Elise did a fantastic job dogsitting Athena! She was very responsive, gave daily updates (with pictures). She even took time meet Athena before I traveled, and to learn some commands. I had a complete peace of mind during my trip and Athena was sad to let her go. I would definitely recommend Elise, and book her again, 💯.”

“This is our second time with Dustin and again he was amazing! Our dog really loves him, and he is so respectful and responsive, and takes great care with our pet and our home. 5 stars!! We will rebook him for sure!”

About: Hi! 😊 I'm a lifelong animal lover who's happiest when I'm spending time with pets. While reptiles and lizards are definitely my specialty (I have a bearded dragon named Beetlejuice), I grew up in a home full of cats and dogs and still help care for my family's pets whenever I can. Over the years, I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities—from Pit Bulls, Labrador and Retriever mixes, Chihuahuas, and Belgian Malinois to scruffy little mixed breeds—and I love getting to know what makes each pet unique. Whether your dog wants an adventure, your cat prefers quiet company, and everything in between, I'm happy to meet them where they are. Since I can't have furry pets where I currently live, I truly cherish every opportunity to spend time with cats and dogs. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away, and to give you peace of mind through dependable care and regular updates. I'll treat your pets like family because that's exactly what they are. I also have experience caring for reptiles and other small or exotic pets and am happy to provide specialized care upon request! I am happy to adapt my schedule to meet the needs of your furry friends as I am able to. I most available before 10am and after 3pm on weekdays, and all day most weekends. Please give me some pet time! I know every pet has their own routine, and I'm committed to following your instructions closely to help them feel safe and comfortable. I'll keep your home secure, communicate consistently, and send plenty of updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

“Julie was fantastic with our two little guys Winston & Jax. She was communicative and sent pictures and updates throughout our weekend away. The boys seemed very happy when we got back, thanks so much Julie!”

About: I have had pets in my family since I was born. These pets have included dogs, cats, reptiles and rabbits. I am currently a dog mom to my French Bulldog, Jade. She was diagnosed with a brain tumor in January of this year. It has been a difficult road but I am now very experienced with medication distribution and special needs. We go on daily stroller walks :) due to her walking imbalance. I also am involved with SoCal Bulldog rescue and attend events as well as volunteer with my family. Animals are family to me, Jade is considered my daughter not just a pet. I currently work remote so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to care for your pet and do not have children. Working remotely gives me the freedom to provide dog walking, feeding and potty breaks if I am not at your home full time. While caring for your pet, I will follow your feeding and walking schedule and any other exercise requirements. My dog sleeps in my bed so I am ok with that if you do the same. I am also comfortable with special needs pets and medication distribution. When caring for your pet in your home, I will treat your home with respect and insure that it is in the same condition as when I arrived. I will always make sure the home is secured and locked.

“Ludy gained the trust of all three of my cats super quickly and sent so many updates and pictures while I was away! Can’t recommend her enough 😊”

About: Hi! I'm Vivian, a UCSD medical student and lifelong animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from 9-week-old puppies to 12-year-old senior dogs. In the past, I've provided dog walking, feeding, and overnight house sitting, and I'm comfortable following specific routines, administering basic care, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I'm also a cat owner myself, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their usual routine, I'll make sure they receive attentive, reliable care and plenty of affection. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I’m currently a medical student on summer break so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your furry friends! Throughout the rest of summer, my schedule is very flexible to cater to whatever your pet needs :) I live at graduate housing which has plenty of green space for your pets to roam around and explore! I am able to crate your pets if necessary. I have a senior cat at home that has lived with other cats before and has also been friendly with all dogs that have come to visit my home.

“We love knowing that if Lori is looking after our Lucky when we are out of town, we do not have to worry about anything. She is so good with dogs and is so knowledgeable about them. We cannot thank her enough for everything she does for him. Highly recommend!”

“A wonderful and kind girl. Trustworthy above & beyond cat person. She stayed in touch multiple times a day and made the time pass for Bowie as if I had never left. My car has never been so at peace in my absence & I am so happy I found my new Catsitter.”
