“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely the Best Sitter for My Senior Dog I couldn’t have found anyone better to care for my senior dog, Camilo. From the very first moment, she made him feel safe and earned his trust instantly. She went above and beyond my expectations in every possible way, knowledgeable, patient, and incredibly kind. Her communication was excellent throughout the entire stay. She kept me updated with messages, photos, and details that gave me complete peace of mind. Most importantly, she really made the effort to make Camilo feel at home, comfortable, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares and treats your pet like family, look no further. I’m truly grateful for her care and can’t recommend her enough.”

About: I’ve cared for many pets over the years for family and friends, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very attentive and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I follow routines closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and companionship. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy, clean, and cared for. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, so pet sitting fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to be available most times of the day, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since my schedule isn’t packed, I can focus on making sure each pet is comfortable, safe, and well taken care of while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets at home, I make sure they get plenty of food, fresh water, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I take them on at least two or three walks during the day and make sure they get lots of playtime so they stay active and happy. I also keep their space clean, make sure feeding schedules are followed, and give them plenty of attention so they feel comfortable. At night I make sure they have a safe, comfortable place to sleep and that they’re settled in for the night. In the morning I repeat the routine by checking their food and water, taking them out for a walk, and making sure they start the day happy and well cared for.
“Cristina and her family are the best! We have done day care but now have also left our lil man with her for 3 nights while we were out of town. Today we sat talked and our baby was happy and excited to see us and also so happy with where he stayed. She is the only one for our family!!”

About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.
“Jessica watched our pup for a week and sent us photo updates! We had a meet and greet for her dog to meet mine and overall went well, she has a nice big yard that our dog enjoys sunbathing in. Thanks for giving our pup a nice comfy place to stay while we were away!”

“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”

“Lisa and Logan took care of my dog, Driver like he was their own. Plenty of pictures and updates and they are just wonderful caring people. I am thrilled to have found them and would love to have them sit for us again.”


“Diego was Absolutely amazing! He watched my dog for two days and did such a great job. He was responsible, attentive, and took wonderful care of my pup. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. For being so young, I was incredibly impressed with how dependable and caring he was. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got home. I would absolutely trust him to watch my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! 🐾❤️”

“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”

“Monique was such a good sitter for our dog. She updated us daily and sent lots of pictures! She took really good care of our dog who has bad anxiety. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Pilar was wonderful! She kept me updated when I asked about my dogs and she has a heart of gold! When I picked my dogs up they were happy! Pilar has a heart of gold! Highly recommend her!”

“Our senior dog Lexi had a great few days with Agueda and her family! We appreciated the daily updates and will definitely book with Agueda again next time we're out of town. Thank you!”

It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.”

“Aytanna went above and beyond during their visits with Theia. In addition to the duties we discussed during booking, Aytanna also swept up litter and cat hair, sanitized my water fountain, and was super communicative about when they were coming by. I would highly recommend Aytanna to anyone (especially those with sensitive/shy animals) and will definitely be using them in the future.”

About: I've always had a dog in the house since I was born, but I also have vast experience taking care of the pets of immediate family, as well as a lot of my extended family. I've taken care of dogs, cats, reptiles, amphibians, and fish for as long as I can remember. Currently, I'm studying wildlife and animal care at school and have experience with internships where I handle animals. I'm currently working part time, but only around 4-8 hours a week, so I have lots of time to take care of pets. I'm at home for the majority of the day, and I often take long walks during the day that I would love to bring dogs on. I also have a car and everything in my life is in close proximity to my house, so if I'm ever not at home I can come right back very soon. I have a fenced yard and several parks nearby my house that I can take dogs to. I have no dogs in the house but I'm happy to board many if necessary. I can crate dogs if necessary but I don't have to, they're allowed to have free reign of the house if the owner is okay with it. Dogs are allowed on the furniture but again if an owner requests they not do that then that's great too!

About: Hi! My name is Diana. I am a caring and responsible pet lover living in San Diego. I have experience caring for my own dog and understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable. Your pet will receive lots of attention, love, and care in a calm home environment. I welcome small and friendly dogs and will treat them like family. I am home most of the time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets.

“Melinda is the best!! I’ve taken my pug to her 3 times in the last two weeks and my pug always has a blast. Melinda does so many fun and creative things with the dogs she cares for. My pug is a ball of energy and he comes home really tired when I pick him up (which means he had a lot of fun). Melinda is very good with all types of dogs and it’s very evident that she has a passion for what she does. Highly recommend Melinda!”

About: Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve spent years caring for the dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve looked after dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s unique routine and needs. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with Dalmatians and have spent the past eight years raising two friendly, goofy, and well-socialized rescue beagles with my wife. Together we have also fostered rescue dogs for weeks at a time until they found their forever home. As your sitter, I will be your dog’s primary caregiver. I’ll personally handle walks, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has their own routine, energy level, and personality, and I’ll make every effort to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. My wife is also a tremendous animal lover who enjoys spending time with every pet she meets, so your dog will benefit from being in a home with two people who genuinely love animals. While I’ll be responsible for all of your pet’s care, they’ll also receive extra affection and companionship throughout their stay. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard patio, and we live in a safe neighborhood with plenty of green space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same love, patience, and respect that we’d want for our own. I primarily work from home with a flexible schedule, typically on East Coast business hours. Most weekdays, I’m available beginning around 2:00 PM for dog walks, drop-in visits, playtime, potty breaks, and other pet care needs. On days with a lighter meeting schedule, I’m often able to stop by earlier in the day for a walk or visit before returning to work. I occasionally work onsite once a week, but I typically leave the office between 2:00 and 2:30 PM, allowing me to be available for afternoon and evening care. For boarding and in-home pet sitting, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I will be your pet’s primary caregiver, and because my wife works full-time from home, there is almost always someone at our home to provide companionship, supervision, and peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Before every booking, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or ours, I’ll be your pet’s primary caregiver. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, potty breaks, and lots of affection and attention. I’ll also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Our home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly. We have a securely fenced backyard patio and two friendly, well-socialized beagles who enjoy the company of other dogs. For cats or pets that prefer a quieter environment, we also have a secure private room where they can relax in their own space away from our dogs if needed. I understand that every pet is unique. Some love adventure and play, while others simply want a calm environment and a predictable routine. I’ll always respect your pet’s individual personality and comfort level and care for them with the same patience, compassion, and attention that I give my own animals. For the health and safety of all pets in our home, I ask that visiting dogs and cats be up to date on their vaccinations and flea/tick prevention.

About: Although I have no official skills and training...yet, but I grew up caring for animals. For 18 years I lived on a small farm in Michigan where we raised chickens, rabbits, goats, alpacas, dogs, and cats. These animals were my beloved pets and would get shown at the county fair every summer. Since moving away I have accumulated three cats of my own. As I continue to figure things out and gain experience I can promise that all pets under my care will be well cared for, loved, and that all owners will receive top notch communication. I have just separated from the Navy and am unable to get another job due to some traveling I have planned over the next couple months. I am free all day pretty much any day! I do not offer sitting or boarding in my home due to my cats not appreciating outsiders, but I am more than happy to go to your house and do whatever is needed!

“Elizabeth was a rock star with my dog. She jumped in on short notice and was kind, responsible, and punctual. She took and sent photos through the app each time showing the walk and feeding after. She clearly had experience handling dogs coming in and I will gladly rely on her again in the future.”

“Our dog Mango is absolutely in love with Teressa. He adores her and gets so excited every time she arrives. She takes the time to run with him and match his energy, which has made such a positive difference. We really appreciate her patience, kindness, and the genuine care she shows every visit. Teressa is an amazing dog walker for our pup Mango.”

“Lori is my favorite sitter! She is thoughtful, trustworthy, and overall takes great care of my dogs. She was also communicative about my dogs behavior while they were with her, and she was very patient with one of my dogs misbehaving a little. I can rest easy whenever my dogs are with her!”

About: I’ve cared for many pets over the years for family and friends, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I’m very attentive and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I follow routines closely, whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just giving them attention and companionship. I treat every pet like my own and always make sure they’re happy, clean, and cared for. Right now I have a very flexible schedule, so pet sitting fits easily into my daily routine. I’m able to be available most times of the day, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Since my schedule isn’t packed, I can focus on making sure each pet is comfortable, safe, and well taken care of while their owners are away. When I’m caring for pets at home, I make sure they get plenty of food, fresh water, exercise, and attention throughout the day. I take them on at least two or three walks during the day and make sure they get lots of playtime so they stay active and happy. I also keep their space clean, make sure feeding schedules are followed, and give them plenty of attention so they feel comfortable. At night I make sure they have a safe, comfortable place to sleep and that they’re settled in for the night. In the morning I repeat the routine by checking their food and water, taking them out for a walk, and making sure they start the day happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.
“Jessica watched our pup for a week and sent us photo updates! We had a meet and greet for her dog to meet mine and overall went well, she has a nice big yard that our dog enjoys sunbathing in. Thanks for giving our pup a nice comfy place to stay while we were away!”

“I can't thank Melanie enough for taking such wonderful care of Gunny while I was out of town! From her swift response to my initial inquiry to her warm welcome when we arrived, the entire experience was fantastic. Melanie made Gunny feel right at home, and I truly appreciated the daily updates she sent - they gave me such peace of mind while I was away. Her home provided a clean, safe environment where Gunny could relax and enjoy himself. It was so comforting to see how well Gunny got along with Melanie's dog! Always nice to see him make new friends and enjoy some canine companionship during his stay. It was such a pleasant surprise to discover how much Melanie and I have in common! Those connections made me feel even more comfortable leaving Gunny in her care. I would absolutely recommend Melanie to anyone looking for pet care, and I'll definitely be using her services again in the future. Thank you, Melanie, for going above and beyond to make our experience so positive!”

“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”


“Diego was Absolutely amazing! He watched my dog for two days and did such a great job. He was responsible, attentive, and took wonderful care of my pup. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. For being so young, I was incredibly impressed with how dependable and caring he was. My dog was happy and well taken care of when I got home. I would absolutely trust him to watch my dog again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter! 🐾❤️”

“Overall, we had a good experience. They were able to accommodate our dog on very short notice, which we really appreciated. Erlinda was quick to respond, her daughter was easy to work with, and our dog was well taken care of. We’re grateful they were able to help us out last minute and would consider using them again.”

“Monique was such a good sitter for our dog. She updated us daily and sent lots of pictures! She took really good care of our dog who has bad anxiety. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Analisa watched my baby Pebbles this past weekend and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She kept me updated the whole time with pictures and little check-ins, which honestly made me feel so much more comfortable being away. She was always quick to respond and it was clear Pebbles was being well taken care of and getting lots of attention. I’d definitely trust her to watch Pebbles again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring!”

“Raquel was absolutely amazing. I was so worried my Rotty was going to be anxious and just too much, but she made him feel so much at home and kept me updated twice a day with behavior and photos. I almost thought I wasn't getting my dog back because he looked so happy lol but I am already planning my next trip simply because of her. Thank you again Raquel.”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I feel deeply connected to them. I’m naturally intuitive to their needs and believe that every animal deserves patience, kindness, and a safe place to feel loved. I’ve had pets since I was very young, and nearly all of them have been strays, rescues, or animals that nobody else wanted. I come from a family with a soft heart for animals that are struggling, so caring for them has always been a part of who I am. My journey with animals has been long, meaningful, and full of unforgettable experiences. I’ve cared for playful puppies, gentle senior dogs and cats, very sick animals, and many who came with fear, trauma, and trust issues. I’ve learned that every pet has its own story, and with patience, consistency, and love, they can learn to feel safe and happy again. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, elderly, or needs a little extra understanding, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where they feel secure, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I work remotely part-time and genuinely enjoy having furry companions by my side. My guests spend the day with me in my home office, enjoying plenty of attention, affection, and companionship. I have the flexibility to provide multiple walks, potty breaks, meals on their regular schedule, medication if needed, playtime, enrichment, and, of course, lots of hugs and belly rubs. Every pet is different, so I tailor my day to meet their individual needs and help them feel relaxed, loved, and at home. My furry guests get to hang out with me in my cozy home office while I work, so they're rarely alone and always have company throughout the day. I live in a cozy condo located in a safe, gated, dog-friendly community. While I don't have a backyard, I do have a secure balcony, and we're surrounded by beautiful walking trails and a large park just steps away. I tailor each pet's schedule to their individual needs. During the summer, we enjoy walks early in the morning before the heat sets in, a midday potty and stretch break, another walk in the late afternoon before sunset, and one final potty break before bedtime. Meals are served according to each pet's regular feeding schedule, and because I only work part-time, I have plenty of time for cuddles, playtime, enrichment, and one-on-one attention. My neighborhood is quiet, safe, and full of friendly people who love seeing our furry visitors out enjoying their walks. My goal is to provide a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe, comfortable, and treated like family.
About: I have 3 years of experience caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I am patient, responsible, attentive, and always focused on making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. My schedule is flexible, so I’m available throughout the day for feeding, bathroom breaks, and regular check-ins. This helps me follow your dog’s usual routine and keep their day consistent. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming home where dogs can settle in and feel secure. I carefully follow all care instructions and keep owners updated with photos and videos during their stay.
