“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”

“I cannot recommend Mr. Vipulkumar highly enough as a dog sitter for my beloved Nina! From the moment I entrusted her to his care, I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such capable hands. Mr. Vipulkumar's home was incredibly welcoming, and he made sure Nina felt right at home too. He took the time to understand her personality, preferences, and routines, which made a world of difference. It was heartwarming to see how much he genuinely cared for her well-being. Throughout her stay, Mr. Vipulkumar kept me updated with regular videos and pictures. These delightful updates showcased Nina's happy moments—playing in the yard, snugging in her bed, and enjoying walks around the neighborhood. It was a joy to see her so comfortable and content, and it reassured me that she was receiving all the love and attention she deserves. Nina formed a special bond with Mr. Vipulkumar during her time there. His patience and kindness made her feel safe and cherished, and it truly felt like she was part of the family. In summary, Mr. Vipulkumar provided an outstanding experience for Nina, ensuring she felt at home while I was away. If you're looking for a dog sitter who is reliable, caring, and attentive, Mr. Vipulkumar is the perfect choice!”

“Ami and her family (pup included) were nothing short of wonderful and attentive for Abbi's stay.

Would definitely rebook in the future!”

About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. My dog, Bearra, a Lab and German Shepherd mix, recently passed away after living an amazing 15.5 years. She was such a huge part of my life and taught me how important patience, love, exercise, and attentive care are for pets at every stage of life. As a teacher on summer break, I’m looking forward to spending more time outside doing something I truly enjoy, caring for and spending time with dogs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, caring, and attentive service for both you and your dog. I am a teacher on summer break, so I currently have a very flexible schedule with my days, evenings, and weekends available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active and outside, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely love. While I do not have a private yard, my complex has safe grassy areas for walks and bathroom breaks, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks around Coronado, Seaport Village, and Miramar Reservoir. I treat pets like family, so they are welcome on the furniture and will receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care while they are with me.

About: I provide attentive, loving cat care and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and boundaries. Whether your cat is social and playful or prefers their personal space, I take time to earn their trust and help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions, including administering medications and supporting recovery after illness or surgery. I also keep litter boxes clean, fresh water available, and make sure your cat gets the care, patience, and respect they deserve.
“Joanne is an angel! I’ve met with her before her pet drop ins started and felt immediately at ease- like we’ve known each other for a long time. My pup, Haku adored her! Joanne took good care of him when we’re away and communicates everything with me. She carefully follows instructions and did everything as told with respect! I would definitely book with her service again! She deserves more than 5 stars. Joanne, please stay nearby and keep in touch!!!”
About: I provide drop-in care for cats, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and general check-ins to make sure they are safe while you are away. While I have not owned cats myself, I have experience caring for cats through drop-in visits for friends and family. I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level, so I always take a calm and patient approach, allowing them to warm up at their own pace. I focus on making sure they are well cared for and that their routine stays consistent while you’re gone. 💗🐾
About: I’ve lived on a farm since I was 11. I’ve taken care of dogs and puppies along with many other animals. I raised multiple litters of newborn puppies and their mothers. I’ve cared for them in many ways. I’ve also worked at a doggy day care and boarding facility and have experience with taking care of many dogs of different sizes and ages. I’m walking dogs and doing dog sitting as a side job now while I attend school. I assure you I have plenty of experience taking care of these wonderful fur babies. I’m currently going to school. I take night classes and need something that is flexible with my schedule. I already walk dogs and do dog sitting through another app called wag. It’s perfect for me cause I can focus on school without being worried about being tied down to a schedule since I’m able to make my own schedule. I also need more services so I thought doing 2 apps at a time might bring more income. I let them out every 2-4 hours to go potty or as needed or instructed my owner. I feed them based off their eating schedule and how many time a day they eat. I take them out for walks and to play with them outside frequently. If the parent need me to do anything else for their pups I’m more than happy to do so.
“Gao was an amazing fit for my need(s) for BearBear. Reading her profile was the main reason I selected her. She was very knowledgeable, passionate, and handled BearBear with the care he needed; above and beyond (medicine doses, nail trim, etc.). Her communication, availability and empathy was exactly what I needed. Thank you!”
“Caroline was fantastic with my senior cat, Theda. When we met for a meet and greet I explained that I am a bit particular about how Theda’s meals are organized and how to clean her bowls, and Caroline was totally on top of it all. I was away the last two weekends and received daily photos of a happy cat from Caroline while out of town, and when I came back the litter area and kitchen were so clean and tidy. I really appreciate that level of care and attention and I know Theda did too: thank you so much Caroline!”
“Brandee is the absolute best! She replied to my booking so fast. Eventhough she wasn't available for the entire booking, she actively searched for friends who could help. Other sitters just turned down the request, or didn't reply. We agreed on some days that would work. The request was to care for tiny, sick, shelter kittens. The job was not easy, it involved an application to the animal shelter, wearing full protective gear, coordinating with the foster coordinator, and then caring for sick kittens. She handled it like a pro! She found her way in and worked with the kittens and even sent pictures. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”
“DO NOT HESITATE TO BOOK! This is Terry and I’s 2nd time working with Janetta and I literally have no complaints. My favorite part of working with Janetta is the fact she cares for my son as if he was hers. Her communication….chefs kiss! She is very punctual and respectful of my home as well. She truly goes above and beyond of the tasks asked of her, and we couldn't be more grateful to have the ability to book with a sitter like her!”
About: 5+ years experience taking care of dogs and cats. Respectful and great time management skills. Loves long walks and grew up in a two dog household. I currently work at UCSD, and I work from 7-3:30. I love winding down with a dog walk, or pet care. I am available weekends as well! I am comfortable walking any size of dog. I volunteer at an animal shelter, so I have experience housing dogs and cats! I love playing in home with dogs too if walking isn’t suitable for them.
“Jiaqi was so amazing, very caring and attentive to our cat, she exceeded our expectations. She gave her the best care. We appreciated the daily pictures, videos and updates while we were on our trip. I highly 100% recommend and we would definitely be happy to use her services again.”
“Rebecca is a very caring cat professional. She listened and was eager to learn my cat’s needs. She has provided pictures, videos and kind comments throughout my cat’s stay. If you are looking for extra TLC for your cats while you are away, I highly recommend Rebecca.”
“Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. 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.”
About: I’ve owned multiple different pets my entire life and I honestly feel so much joy just from snuggling my dog and cat and any other pet I encounter. I love to walk dogs of any age and size and I love to care for cats also!! I have lots of free time and I feel I could be very useful for people who need a pet sitter! I’ve watched some of my friends animals before but most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals! I have a big dog, I’ve had her for about 8 years and I also have a cat and a guinea pig! I really love my animals and I would love to be able to take care of more, for anyone who needs help!

“I recommend Lori as a trustworthy and caring dog sitter! My dog is strong and energetic, and Lori knew how to manage him, and was very kind and patient. She gave him lots of needed attention and kept me updated. I appreciate Lori so much for making me feel at ease knowing he was in good hands!”
“This is the most welcoming and joyful home. One of the highlights is that my pup gets to play in secret paradise. You’ll understand if you book. I hope to reconnect with them soon. It’s so rare when the space and the family are absolute treasures.”
“Our fur babies were quite comfortable during their stay with Holger. They were accommodating to our schedule and sent us pictures and updates throughout the day. Our babies were treated like family and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone as we will definitely be using them again.”
“My dog was happy to be staying with Enrique . He was amazing taking care of chucky for me . Will be coming back to him . Very good at communicating . 5/5 * thanks ! :)”

“Melinda and her husband are wonderful! Our pup Patrick had so much fun! They went on a field trip to balboa park one day, and a long fun walk the next day. Patrick usually tries to leave with us, but both days we dropped him off we ran straight inside to say hi to the other dogs. Melinda sent pics both days and it was such a relief to see how happy Patrick was!”

About: As a full-time retired “dog grandpa,” I’ve spent over 50 years caring for dogs of every shape, size, and personality. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me for decades to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pups just like my own. I currently share my home with a friendly spaniel mix who loves making new friends and helps create a warm, social atmosphere for visiting dogs. I’m patient, attentive, and happiest when I’m surrounded by wagging tails. From energetic youngsters to sweet seniors, I know how to keep each dog comfortable, confident, and cared for. Now that I’m fully retired, caring for pets has become one of the most enjoyable parts of my day. I’m home most of the time, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, frequent potty breaks, and peaceful company throughout the day. I’m available on weekends and most weekdays, and my open schedule allows me to keep your pet’s routine steady morning strolls, afternoon cuddles, or extra playtime, whatever they need. My home is set up with pets in mind. I have a secure fenced backyard with a large pet door so dogs can safely go in and out for fresh air and play. My spaniel mix is friendly and loves having canine company. We take daily walks to nearby parks, perfect for sniffing, exploring, and stretching those legs. Inside the house, pets are welcome to relax wherever they feel comfortable and yes, that includes the furniture. I provide a calm, supervised, and cozy environment, and I’m experienced with crates, medications, special diets, and supporting dogs with different energy levels or routines. Your dog will be treated like a cherished family member with all the gentle attention, structure, and warmth you’d expect from a loving retired grandpa.

About: Having 4+ years of volunteering at my animal shelter has given me the experience to handle various kinds of dogs and their personality traits. I primarily bring them out in the play yards to get their daily exercise so to do this outside the shelter would be like my ideal day of never ending fun. On my free-time I like to research dog breeds and learn anything dog-related. I also love to run my dog blog on instagram. I would like to commit at least 3 days of full-time availability. Nighttime hours (6-11PM) is probably my preferred time because I'm almost always available then. Dogs deserve the exercise and love they need while their owners are away and I'll do my best to make make sure they get it. My house-sitting routine is set to ensure your pet receives consistent, attentive care throughout the day. On weekdays, I provide morning care before heading to work (which begins at 8:00 AM in Chula Vista). Depending on my route, I’m typically available again between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM. After work, I return to spend a few hours feeding, caring for, and giving your pet plenty of attention. I then briefly check in on my own pets before coming back to your home for the evening and overnight care. On weekends, I have greater flexibility. I am available every Saturday and every other Sunday, allowing me to dedicate even more time and attention to your pet’s needs. Caring for your pet is both a joy and a responsibility I take seriously. While you’re away, they’ll be treated like one of my own—with lots of love, attention, and care. I like to follow a detailed care sheet outlining your pet’s usual routine so I can mirror it as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable and at ease in your absence. You can also expect plenty of adorable updates, and I’m always available if you or I have any questions along the way.
“Bernice was able to come very last minute and accommodate a walk with my girl stella! Stella was tired after her walk and got along well with my sweet girl! Will def keep her as a regular :)”
About: I have taken care of pets most of my life. I have worked with Little Buddies, Wag, Rover and have helped friends and family take care of their pets for many years. I know animal CPR, am experienced in administrating oral and topical pet medication and have a great green open space right outside my home for walking dogs (and maybe even some cats!) My home is cute, comfortable and calm for dogs and cats alike. I’m very intent on helping animals feel safe and secure in my care. Whatever your pet care instructions are I will follow to the T. My cats would be separated in their own favored space while your pets enjoyed free range of my home during their stay. Rest assured your Loved ones are in good hands here, mi casa es su casa, a home away from home 😊 I am an Artist/Painter so I work from home and will be here the whole time while watching your pet while they’re boarding. And when I’m not boarding I have a lot of free time and flexibility to drive out to your fur baby to feed them, walk them, clean their litter or offer whatever care they need. I have a great green open space right outside my home for walking dogs (and maybe even some cats!) My home is cute, comfortable and calm for dogs and cats alike. My cats would be separated in their own favored space while your pets enjoyed free range of my home during their stay.

“Lori watched our dog Hana for four nights and we couldn’t be more pleased. Hana can be very anxious and temperamental, but Lori exceeded our expectations and was able to form a bond with her quickly. We usually avoid boarding Hana at larger facilities because she becomes overwhelmed and overly anxious. However, Lori was able to provide Hana with much more intimate care where she felt safer. Lori provided daily updates showing us that Hana was active and well taken care of. This made it much easier to feel at ease while we are on vacation. We will certainly be using her again.”
“Jessica is amazing! She was quick to respond to our request and took amazing care of our dogs. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were in good hands. She sent us updates and pictures throughout the stay.”
“Took such good care of my pup Kona, provided daily pics/updates and was accommodating on drop off time. They also transported Kona to another dog sitter, as I was out of town for an extended period. Definitely went the extra mile, highly recommend :)”
“Ami and her family (pup included) were nothing short of wonderful and attentive for Abbi's stay. Easy to schedule meet and greet, attentive communication and received updates/photos while we were out of the country. Abbi seemed to enjoy her time with Ami and came home safe and sound. Would definitely rebook in the future!”
“It was our first time booking with Monique and I would 100% book again! We left our dog with her for five nights, and he was well taken care of. We got daily updates and pictures, and we love that she has a work-from-home and fenced yard set-up so that he was with people most of the time. Thank you Monique! Sheep seems like he had a great time with you!”
“bowie had the best time with katia. i was updated with lots of photos. i was happy to hear he got along with her cat. she followed his schedule and he had no issues. 10/10 would recommend!”
About: I have grown up around dogs my entire life and genuinely love being around animals. My dog, Bearra, a Lab and German Shepherd mix, recently passed away after living an amazing 15.5 years. She was such a huge part of my life and taught me how important patience, love, exercise, and attentive care are for pets at every stage of life. As a teacher on summer break, I’m looking forward to spending more time outside doing something I truly enjoy, caring for and spending time with dogs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I would love the opportunity to provide dependable, caring, and attentive service for both you and your dog. I am a teacher on summer break, so I currently have a very flexible schedule with my days, evenings, and weekends available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I enjoy being active and outside, so caring for pets fits naturally into my daily routine and gives me the opportunity to spend time doing something I genuinely love. While I do not have a private yard, my complex has safe grassy areas for walks and bathroom breaks, and I enjoy taking dogs on walks around Coronado, Seaport Village, and Miramar Reservoir. I treat pets like family, so they are welcome on the furniture and will receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and care while they are with me.
“My Penny just finished up her 4th stay with Kenia and Andrew so this review is long overdue. They are amazing. The communication and care is great, plus they treat Penny like a member of the family so I know she’s in great hands when I have to go out of town. Thank you both!”
“if you were looking for someone to care for your furry, loved one and keep you posted on how they’re doing. Siera is the best . she took time to really get to know Enzo, and give him the special attention he needed. I would use her and recommend her to anybody who loves their pet. she will care for him and keep your mind at ease.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the way I treat every pet like family while tailoring care to their unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need consistent training and gentle guidance, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, medication reminders, and comfort. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel loved and secure, even when their owners are away. Whether it’s reinforcing good habits, providing lots of play and exercise, or offering slow walks and cuddles for older pets, I adapt to what each furry friend needs. My goal is to make sure they’re not only cared for, but genuinely happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home full-time with no other job commitments. This allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day In my home, pets enjoy a clean, bug-free space with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I provide fresh water, regular breaks, and lots of attention.
“Five stars! Cerita provided excellent care for our energetic dog. She makes a point to understand each of the canine personalities in her care, and has a great setup for managing them. She was also always very responsive and pleasant to deal with.”
“John and Francesca were fantastic! Rain had a wonderful time - we received lots of photos of her daily activities, and they took her on frequent nature walks. We’ll definitely book with them again!”
“First time booking with with my two golden retrievers and it was a great experience all around. Priscilla and Pascual were super friendly, easy to work with, and had great communication the entire time. My dogs came back happy and healthy, which says everything. Pick up and drop off was very convenient, and pricing felt fair. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend.”
“Devon and Tyson watched my dog, Kaia while I was on vacation and couldn't be happier! I enjoyed getting daily updates (pics and videos) of Kaia having fun with their dog - seeing her so happy and playful with their dog made my day! Their communication game is on point; I never felt out of the loop. Kaia seemed like she was on her own little vacation, totally at ease and right at home. Without a doubt, I will be booking with them again in the future and would highly recommend!”
“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!”
