1. Ryan K.
“We are from out of the area but going to a concert a The Bowl. Last minute, we decided to find a babysitter for our very busy Portuguese Water Dog. Ryan accommodated both us and our dog in every way possible. His communication was outstanding and his love for dogs and their happiness was a dream for us. I would not hesitate to have Leo over there again. He lives in a very convenient location, right in Santa Barbara and his home was safe and secure. Thank you Ryan. We all hope to see you again soon. Thank you!”

About: *MOVING FROM SANTA BARBARA IN JUNE* I have over 15 years of experience taking care of our furry little friends ranging from fresh out the womb puppies to senior dogs needing insulin shots. I’ve done it all and I’ve seen it all. However, I go at the pace of your requests. Putting you and your best friend first. My weekly schedule consists of work Monday and Tuesday from 8-1 PM. The other days I’m very flexible. Please note if you book with me on Mon/Tues I am only available outside of 8-1 PM for drop off requests. I abide by all the rules given by the client pertaining to their home. I am respectful, clean, and organized. I take great pride in my services and will make sure I meet the client and the pup’s needs! There are no dogs in my home.

About: I prioritize building a bond with each pet, respecting their boundaries, and understanding their unique personalities to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I currently work from home so it is quite easy for me to take care of your pet and take them on plenty of walks. For onsite visits, I am available after 5pm onward. I create a cozy, pet-friendly environment where your pet will enjoy attention, playtime, and rest, all while being treated like a part of the family.

6. Damian J.
“Damian loves dogs of all kinds. He's very patient, loving, and firm with my American Staffordshire Pit Bull, Rambo, forming a bond that is wonderful to see. He would make a great dog walker simply because he knows how important dogs are for companionship, love, and healthy living. His heart is in the right place and he loves being active. Damian would make a fantastic dog walker for Rover!”
7. Lynn & Marty R.
“Lynn and her husband Marty have always provided such a wonderful time for my dog, Red! He has enjoyed multiple stays with them and loves exploring their backyard and playing with their dog, Jayce. They are always ready with pictures and summaries of Red's day, which is very comforting during my time away from him. One of the best aspects of their pet caregiving is that they are always home with Red when he stays over as they are both retired. Additionally, they are friendly and enthusiastic, and Red always wishes he could stay longer!”
