About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I’m was around 5, I grew up with poodles and we raised them . I would help the neighbors with their cats,dogs,birds and bunnies I currently work for full-time, but on the weekends I enjoy hanging out with dogs. I do enjoy walking them taking to the park having quality time with them. I can provide a fenced yard. There is a park a block away from my home.

“Lauren and her family are nothing short of fantastic. They watched our 14 year old pupper, Duke, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous- but Lauren and her family made it such a positive, comforting experience. Lauren was incredibly communicative throughout the planning, and even during Duke's stay. Her family has a genuine love for animals- I can't even begin to overstate it. One of the sweetest moments? I came to pick Duke up from his sleepover and, as we were walking out the door, Duke actually walked back in just to say goodbye to the kids. That's how we knew he felt safe and happy there. We already have plans for Duke to have future sleepovers with Lauren and her family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. She and her family are absolute gems.”
“Thank you Sarah. We had a last minute hick up with our hotel in Avila Beach and Sarah came to the rescue. Last minute, replied immediately, took a dog overnight!!! Wonderful and grateful beyond words!! Thank you again Sarah!”
“Adrienne is a wonderful human being. She is also a responsible, caring, affectionate and communicative sitter. I highly recommend her if you want peace of mind! We had a great experience with her caring for our fur baby. She took him on walks and even to the beach.”
About: I am a life long dog lover and have had many dogs over the years (work travel prevents me from ownership right now). Over the years my household (me, adult son, grand daughter (6)) have adopted or fostered a wide variety of dogs from a puppy to be trained and moved on to forever home to senior dogs who ultimately ended up with their forever home right here. I am excellent at giving medication (was a LPN for humans), long walks that I enjoy as much as the dog, and am open to any dog related service your dog may need. I will always treat your dog like the wonderful individual they are. I am open to any size dog and ANY breed (I have great relationships with pit bulls, Chihuahua's, and other high difficulty breads) We will discuss your system of punishment and reward so that we are on the same page. Feel free to contact me with any questions I am a work from home writer, artist, photographer, and journalist, so I have lots of open time. I do travel for work in the summer months which does leave some days completely unavailable, but otherwise ready to walk from 8am to 8pm, seven days a week. There is no other way to say it, I love dogs and will treat your dog with more respect than most humans receive. The walks will be well planned and any care will be exactly what you requested.

One of my cats can be a little feisty, but Kayla was patient with him and got along with him just fine. We highly recommend Kayla to anyone looking for a great sitter!”
“Danny stopped by to check in on our two cats while we were away and did a great job.

“I am so grateful to have found Jazzlynne! Our son, who had been our cat-sitter when we were away, has moved overseas and we were very nervous about leaving our 3 cats in the care of a stranger. But from our first meeting, Jazzzlynne proved to be reliable, conscientious, punctual, and most importantly, kind and caring to our fur babies. She took care of medicating one cat twice daily and keeping their litter box clean and fresh. She even brought in our mail and packages. I would not hesitate for a second to book time with her again. She made us certain our beloved kitties were in good hands!”
“Cameron is great with our cats! We were so happy to see how much our shy cat responded to meeting Cameron the first time. She wanted to be petted and was purring. We will definitely hire Cameron for all of our pet sitter needs.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and currently have a 13 year old dog named Sammy and a 7 year old dog named Martin in Colombia. Being around dogs has taught me a lot about different personalities, routines, and the care they need at different stages of life. I also help care for my friends’ dog, Perry, when they travel, so I have experience with daily routines, giving medication when needed, monitoring feeding and weight, and making sure pets feel comfortable, loved, and safe. I understand that every dog is different, and I would treat your pet with the same care, patience, and attention I give my own. My schedule is flexible and I make time for pet care throughout my week. I understand the importance of consistency, routines, and giving pets the attention they need. I’m committed to making sure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while keeping owners updated along the way. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone else. I always follow the pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medication schedules if needed, and any specific care requests from owners. I pay close attention to behavior and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in a calm environment.
About: To stay busy as a child, I walked and house sat practically the entire neighborhood’s beloved pet. Summer days were filled with miles of dog walking adventures with a dedicated cabinet to keep the hundreds of house keys safe. Even now, as I begin grad school at Cal Poly, I can’t imagine my routine without it! Morning exercise, study breaks throughout the day, and evening walks are a perfect time for animal care sessions. Having a sister who is a vet, I am only a quick call away from an expert diagnosis if ever necessary. I have piece of mind knowing assistance is close and years of experience keeping animals happy and safe. I am currently enrolled in Cal Poly’s Master’s program for Biomedical Engineering, which is completely virtual this quarter and likely next. This allows for a very flexible schedule with frequent study breaks for pet walks or visits. The remote lessons even allow me to listen to lectures while with your pet in your home for extended pet company. My house is close to the bike path and terrace hill for the perfect pet excursion sure to leave them tired and happy. I love running to accommodate the high energy animals as well as the leisurely hike for those who are slowing down or prefer a casual sniff around.

I do work part time with a wonky schedule, but I will do whatever I can to be able to drop-in and check on your pup or take them for walks! I have a fenced in yard, I keep an eye on the dogs, make sure they use the bathroom, get fed, and get some energy out!
“This was a last minute dog sitting job and Cara was immediate in helping me out. She got right back to me and when we met, I saw how loving she was to my dog. He was right at home. I highly recommend Cara.”
“Paul was fabulous with our energetic rescue dog Rocky (the rocket). While we were on vacation in Pismo Beach, Paul watched Rocky all day for a couple days. He exercised and loved on Rocky for many hours, which gave us free time to be tourists in the area. We will definitely see if he's available again in the future, when we're back in the area. We highly recommend Paul for doggy daycare in the area. Rocky had a wonderful time. Thanks Paul!”
“Tami took my pup's anxiety in stride and she clearly won him over quickly. He was snuggling up to her and clearly had a great day. Thanks for taking care of our puppy for the day so we could take a tour of Hearst Castle!”
“Miki was AMAZING with my adult dog Moose. She was welcoming and friendly and communicated extremely well. She sent us updates throughout the day and was very responsive. She walked my dog and took care of him like he was her own pet! She made him comfortable and he isn’t easy to trust right away but with Miki and her family Moose seemed to feel right at home. We booked her for day care 2 days, back to back, and Moose seemed excited to go back! I hope she’s available next time we need a sitter because she will be the first person that comes to mind. Thank you Miki! We appreciate you so much 😄”

“Dropped off Flower for a short visit today before I board him with Andrew. I had previously met with Andrew so that Flower could meet him and Flower was very happy to see him. When I picked up my little dog, he seemed very content and peaceful sitting in his little bed. It made me very happy to see that my dog was happy and apparently had a good visit! I feel great about leaving flower with Andrew for the upcoming weekend after this wonderful experience.”

“Lauren and her family are nothing short of fantastic. They watched our 14 year old pupper, Duke, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. This was our first time using a pet sitter, so we were a bit nervous- but Lauren and her family made it such a positive, comforting experience. Lauren was incredibly communicative throughout the planning, and even during Duke's stay. Her family has a genuine love for animals- I can't even begin to overstate it. One of the sweetest moments? I came to pick Duke up from his sleepover and, as we were walking out the door, Duke actually walked back in just to say goodbye to the kids. That's how we knew he felt safe and happy there. We already have plans for Duke to have future sleepovers with Lauren and her family. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive pet sitter. She and her family are absolute gems.”

She’s also an advanced trick dog. So I’m willing to teach any dog some tricks if wanted. Not only do I have experience but I’m also willing to be affordable to. I will work around your prices. Dont be afraid to ask Im a SAHM and have plenty of free time. I can do drop ins and walks in the weekends and daycare and boarding all week When doing drop ins in your home I will follow all instructions to care for your pets. I do positive reinforcement so leave your pups favorite treats out. Lots of attention and play will be provided
About: I have fostered two kittens in my current apartment, as well as cared for a dog and two cats in my previous home. I love animals! I am working a part time job in Paso Robles, but shifts are usually mid morning to early evening. I work a few days out of the week, and otherwise I have free time to spend with the pet(s)! I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect that I would my own. I always follow each pet's routine, make sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, and a safe, comfortable environment while you're away. I'm dependable, communicative, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind. I work 3–4 days a week, and my evenings are usually very open, giving me plenty of flexibility and quality time to spend with your pets.
About: Active and attentive family available to provide multiple levels of care for your fur baby! Our nine-year-old is interested in starting a dog walking business (with support from mom or dad), and we are also able to board a friendly dog who would be sharing space with our elderly dog or do drop-ins/ house sit when more appropriate (not the whole family!). We can provide exercise through walks, on-leash hikes, or whatever works for your dog. I’ve been around dogs most of my life and am comfortable with all ages (puppy to elderly). Our child is in a hybrid homeschool program so someone is home most days throughout the day to keep your pet company. Our child is a hybrid homeschool program so we are home 4 days a week all day and gone for an hour or two on school days for drop off and pick up. We have a fenced yard and live close to dog friendly beaches and trails. If you have a cat you need a sitter for, we are available for drop-ins or to stay at your residence because our dog has strong opinions about the feline species.
“Niccola was amazing ! I got little updates with my pups and texted me about how they were doing throughout the stay . I will definitely be booking her again In the future .”
“Kara is a gem! I hope that she’s open to taking our dogs because I felt 100% confident that our pups were in good hands. She was very approachable, easy to communicate with and sent us pictures and updates.”
“Our dog Bentley had such a wonderful time with Shantal and her dog Kala. They went on fun hikes and walks each day which was perfect for my high energy dog. Shantal was a great communicator listening to all the details of our dog's care. I felt confident Bentley was in good hands while we were away. She sent us fun photos of their time out and about. I think Bentley had a blast! Thanks so much Shantal and Kala! We look forward to having Bentley stay with you again!”
