Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in University City, San Diego

“Tina is great! We have used her services for walks and check ins with our 11 year old dog. She is flexible, attentive and thorough. She sends well detailed notes and lots of pictures & spends time visiting with our indoor cats as well. Highly recommend her!”

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. Some times I take them to the dog beach and for hiking. I am available for drop in visits and dog walks the whole week with possibility of adapting to the schedule that works better for you. I can take care of your dog at your place for a few hours. If you want some furry company for your dog, my dog is very friendly and he will keep your dog company all the time.

“Ella was communicative and timely. My senior and shy cat loved playing and hanging out with her.”

“Eliza was amazing! She was very communicative and helpful. My cats are very picky about warming up to people and they warmed up to her by the second visit! She took great care of them and I will definitely use her again :)”

“Ava's simply the best. Our dog Latte loves it when she visits, so anyone that gets a chance to book her, should take the opportunity to do so. Thanks again Ava!!!”

“Julianna has been a pleasure to work with. She really took the time to learn about each of our dogs’ personalities and come to understand what they would each need from her to feel safe and playful. She’s been a joy to communicate with and we will hire her again.”

“Yage has an incredible love for dogs, and it shows in the way she cares for them. My dog immediately felt comfortable with her, and I could see how much Yage genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. She is thoughtful, attentive, and treats every dog as if they were her own. I always feel at ease knowing my dog is in such loving and capable hands. If you're looking for someone who truly loves dogs and provides excellent care, Yage is the perfect choice!”

“Jocelyn has provided incredible care to my golden retriever, Finn, over the last few years when we've needed pet sitting services, walks or check-ins. Finn can be a bit tricky with other large dogs, so I’ve always been cautious about who takes care of him. But Jocelyn has been so thoughtful and attentive, ensuring that Finn is always safe, comfortable, and well-cared for. She takes the time to engage with Finn, giving him the exercise and attention he needs - and goldens need a lot of both! It's clear she understands his personality and makes sure to avoid any stressful situations. Finn has always been happy and content when I return, which speaks volumes about how well he’s been treated. I couldn’t be more grateful for Jocelyn's care, and I recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and dedicated pet caregiver.”

About: I grew up with a Shiba Inu so I’m used to sassy uncooperative dogs and escape artists! Now I have a sweet Goldendoodle so I’m also very comfortable with bigger dogs. We do lots of walks, beach time, and dog parks, but I’m happy to customize to suit your pet and whatever you would prefer! I’m currently working from home so I’m very flexible on timing, and usually available on holidays and weekends. I have a dog of my own, so I’m not available for extended house-sitting. I am not currently offering boarding but I will send frequent updates on walks and drop-ins, and take the utmost care to keep your pet safe and happy!

“Yue went up and beyond taking good care of my cat. She was very easy to communicate with, responsive and kind. I will definitely book her to take care of my cat next time.”

“Sonjia is amazing with my cat!! She is very kind, flexible, and wonderful to work with. She understands what it’s like to be away from your pet and takes the time to care for and play with them like they’re her own 🥹”

“I highly recommend Bridget to care for your pets! Bridget will provide safe, loving care for your pets and great customer service. Bridget grew up caring for pets and her love of animals shows in all her actions. Bridget is one of the hardest working people I know, consistently receiving praise and promotions from employers. You and your pets will be happy you chose Bridget to care for them!”

“Sonia was great with our cat — hit it off with him right away and provided great daily feedback, pics and video while we were away. Came home to a much calmer cat than when we usually go out if town. Will definitely use Sonia whenever we travel!”

“Olivia was great with our cats! She was communicative and gave them a lot of attention during her visits. We would definitely use Olivia again.”

“Very responsive and dependable! He checked in on our three reptiles and our cat doing excellent job that all were well fed and cared for”

“Ana was so great! Very communicative and took directions really well when my puppy was feeling sick last minute. She also sent cute pictures! I would definitely recommend her to anyone :)”

“Nick was super professional and also offered to go check on Izzy when my fire alarm went off in my building. Super thankful and would highly recommend!”

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my familiarity and passion for animal care. Having owned a dog for six years, I understand the attention, care, affection, and nuanced needs of dogs. Since middle school, I've been actively involved in dog walking and sitting, growing my skills of working with pets of all sizes. Whether you need someone to house sit while you’re away or walk your dog for short or long distances, I offer personalized and dependable care tailored to your pet’s needs. My background ensures that your furry babies are in capable hands, receiving the attention and care they deserve. I am currently a student, with classes spread throughout the week. This flexible schedule leaves me more than enough time to play with your pups. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a comfortable and safe environment for your pet. At my home, I provide plenty of room for play and relaxation, ensuring that each pet feels secure and at ease. I will maintain a routine that mirrors their regular schedule as closely as possible, including feeding times, exercise, and any special needs they might have. In a client’s home, I prioritize sticking to the pet’s usual routine to ensure the least amount of stress. I follow detailed instructions provided by the pet owner and adapt to any specific care requirements. I also keep the home clean and secure, respecting the owner’s space while providing attentive and loving care for their pets, treating them as if they were my own.

“I can't recommend Phu Khat enough as a dog sitter! She has looked after my dog, Momo, on several occasions, and every time, I’ve been completely at ease knowing she’s in such good hands. Momo can be a bit shy and particular, but she has a natural way with her. She’s patient, understanding, and always makes sure Momo feels comfortable and cared for. If you're looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own, Phu Khat is absolutely the one to trust. Momo adores her, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and responsible dog sitter!”

“Olivia is a caring and reliable pet and house sitter! She loves my dogs and they love her back! She’s been available for us at a moment’s notice. And when she’s stayed at my house overnight, she always leaves it clean and tidy. I strongly recommend Olivia as your next pet caregiver.”
