“Amazing! She took care of my dog for three weeks, sent pictures, stuck to her dietary needs, washed her crate and even gave her a bath at no extra charge! I highly recommend her services and would definitely hire her again! Thank you so much!”
“Isao & Rezairyl made me feel very comfortable while my Gigi was with them. They send photos and updates daily. Gigi is a senior dog and since they also have seniors, they knew exactly what kind of environment she needed to be in and knew exactly how to take care of her. Gigi also got an upset stomach on the first day of drop off, and they reassured me that she was ok and knew exactly how to help fix that problem. I would recommend them to anyone and would definitely book with them again.”
“I will definitely hire again. Great sitter and photographer, like, seriously, Karina takes great photos of your dog having fun and being take care. Really put my heart at ease while I was out of state. Wonderful sitter.”
“Marlo is always amazing with Rufus. He has been with her several times now and she always updates me consistently with picture. I will continue to use her until she says no”
“We are so happy we found Marby for our little Jehu! She watched our 4 lb Yorkie for 5 days and exceeded every expectation. From the moment we dropped him off, she kept us constantly updated with pictures and check-ins, which gave us so much peace of mind. Jehu is still in the middle of potty training, and Marby took that seriously. She kept him on a consistent walking schedule that aligned perfectly with his training routine. That kind of attention to detail means the world when you have a pup in such an important stage of development. As a bonus, Jehu absolutely loved her little poodle and got so attached! I could tell he was genuinely happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. He came home healthy and content, and honestly, I think he can’t wait to go back for his next visit. We will definitely be booking with Marby again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and attentive sitter!”
“We recently used Soonok as a dog sitter for the first time to care for our senior terrier, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Naturally, we were a bit anxious leaving our older dog in someone else’s care, but Soonok immediately put us at ease. Soonok was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, taking extra care to accommodate our dog’s needs and pace. What really stood out was the consistent communication—we received daily updates and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was in great hands and being treated with genuine care and affection. We’re so grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Soonok to others. We will very likely be using her services again in the future.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our furry love ones. They were so happy Buster didn’t want to leave. I am very happy to have found you will be first on my list for the next time.”
“It was our first time getting a sitter, Mollie and her family was AMAZING, Nala had a great time. She provided care for nala like she was her own, kept me updated and communication was great. I Will definitely book Mollie again. She was awesome! Thanks again!”
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”
“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“Irene was great with our pups! We would love for her to sit for them in the future. She shared updates while we were on our trip. She reviewed the care document, and knew how to set up their crates and put their complicated harnesses on. Our pups are high energy breeds and but they came home relaxed and content. When we went to pick them up Bone Thug ran back to give Irene a little pup love before leaving. That was the biggest sign of care and happiness to me.”

We provide a safe, comfortable, dog-friendly home where every pup is treated with patience and care. Whether your dog enjoys relaxing, playing, or going for walks, we’ll do our best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel right at home.

About: i’ve worked with animals over 6 years I have pets of my own so I know that we just want the best for them.

“Angela was such a great dog sitter- she and Kona made Honey feel right at home while I was away! She was willing to be flexible with me and my hectic schedule and sent lots of updates and pics throughout the stay! 10/10”
“Merve was a fantastic cat sitter! I highly recommend her. She was very patient, kind, and caring as my anxious kitty took a few days to warm up and get used to his new settings. She took amazing care of my cat, was very easy to communicate with, and I am so grateful as this was the longest amount of time I was ever away from my cat (3 weeks). Thank you, Merve!”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
“We left our 3+ year dog with Wanda recently. This was our first time trying rover and it seems Wanda loved & pampered our dog a lot! Wanda is in a nice neighborhood in Long beach which made us feel safe leaving our dog with her. She sent pictures throughout & her conversations made us feel she is very experienced with dogs & understands them. Our dog hasn’t been around other dogs so we really appreciated that she only takes 1 client at a time. She made extra effort to make our dog feel comfortable with Gidget as well. We will definitely reach out to Wanda next time we need dog boarding!”
“Brittany was an amazing host! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay with daily check-ins and pictures. My dog was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her home.”

“We were so grateful to have Jennylyn take care of our cat while we were out of town. She responded to our messages promptly and kept us updated with regular photos and reports. Our cat can be quite sassy, mischievous, and not always friendliest, but Jennylyn was very patient and handled things wonderfully. We felt at easy knowing our cat was in great hands. We'd definitely book with Jennylyn again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.”
“Christina is great! I’ve booked her several times and she is communicative, trustworthy, and flexible. Always puts me at ease when we’re away and the kitties and tortoise enjoy her company. Highly recommend.”
“Cassandra is the BEST. I have two cats who are my babies. They are both really attached to me, so I hate leaving them. From the second Cassandra came over to meet them, both cats were clearly at ease. Cassandra has watched them a few times for me, and every time I get multiple photos and updates on how they’re doing. I can tell from the photos that they’re both super relaxed and happy. It makes it a tiny bit easier to be away from them.”

I also live by several parks that are great walks for some exercise.

About: I grew up with two dogs in my household and many more among the family. I dog sit my sisters dog frequently. I love animals and want to take the best care of them.

About: When I was born my family already had 2 cats and 2 dogs. Once they passed we got two more cats and 2 more dogs. Since then we’ve gotten a few more cats that were strays and needed a home. I love to care for pets because they’re always there when I need them. I work part-time so it is easy for me to find time to care for animals. It’s something I’m passionate about and I want to help out as much as I can. We have a pretty spacious backyard where our dogs can run around. We keep all of our cats inside due to losing a couple in the past to some tragic outside accidents.

I also have experience with house sitting and occasionally boarding! ☺️ I’m patient and communicative- and only want the best for you and your fur baby. 🤎 ➜ References: I am more than happy to provide a reference if requested! (They're more old-school and don't use their email anymore- I can provide their number directly.) I am currently an on-call substitute teacher Monday through Friday, so my availability is dependent on that. I'm always willing to compromise and am happy to make accommodations as necessary! 🐾 * "UPCOMING WORK DAYS" will be updated as frequently as possible. These are days where I have prior commitments and we should discuss more in-depth what times work best for us! :) ✅ GENERAL AVAILABILITY: ➜ Weekdays (WITH work): 4pm - 11pm ➜ Weekdays (WITHOUT work): 6am - 11pm ➜ Weekends: 6am - 11pm 💛 UPCOMING WORK DAYS (days w/ prior obligations): 9/22, 9/24, 9/25 I thrive off of detailed instructions and routines. If you have a regular schedule with your pet(s), I will stick to it 100%! I am more than happy to send pictures throughout the day / per visit to ensure your comfort as well. ➜ Drop-In Visits: If there is anything in particular you'd like me to keep an eye out for (medications, behaviors, welfare), please let me know! These visits are for YOU and I want to meet you and your pets' needs! 🤎
About: With 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I specialize in the extra attention required for puppies and senior dogs. I am highly experienced in managing puppy energy, maintaining potty training schedules, and reinforcing basic commands. For senior pets, I offer a calm environment and gentle companionship. Whether your pet needs a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet cuddle on the couch, I adapt my care to fit their unique personality and routine perfectly. I’m currently working in a school setting. I will be available after school hours. I will have more availability during school breaks. That would be holidays, spring, and summer. I have full availability on the weekend. I would love taking them on walks. Depending on their energy or needs, it can be long or short. If there’s a park nearby I’d love to play fetch or run around with them. I always have treats on hand to reinforce basic commands.
About: Hi! I’m a proud corgi mom who truly believes dogs are family. My first corgi lived with degenerative myelopathy during the last three years of his life, giving me experience caring for dogs with mobility challenges, patience, and compassion. I’ve also fostered dogs and was often trusted with the tougher cases because of my patience, training skills, and ability to help dogs build confidence and learn new behaviors. My current corgi and I stay active with training and agility classes at Zoom Room, and we love spending time outdoors. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide reliable, attentive care that fits your dog’s needs. I’m responsible, punctual, trustworthy, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. I work from home and run my own business which allows my schedule to be flexible, dependable, and available when your dog needs me most. I treat every pet and home with the same care, respect, and attention I would want for my own. Before each visit, I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, comfort level, and any special needs so I can provide a safe and stress-free experience. I prioritize safety by keeping a close eye on pets during walks, following your instructions carefully, and maintaining a clean, calm environment. I’m reliable, communicative, and will provide updates so you always know how your pup is doing.
About: Hi, my name is Sereina! I've grown up around dogs and have always been someone reliable and trustworthy around others pets as well. I know how to handle and care for dogs and cats of all different sizes, ages, and breeds. I would love to keep growing my experience and getting to know families and their pet family members as well! Currently I am working a part time job and visit my family in San Diego frequently. I am in school during the fall as a full time student but have extra time right now in the summer. Caring for your pet is another way for me to fill up the time throughout the week and meet new pets! As your pet sitter, I can be very by the book. If you have any special requests or know how to counteract any known behaviors from your pet I am capable of following your standards and following what is most comfortable and right for your pet. I will treat your pet with the same love and respect you have for them (and then some!). I am patient and will do everything I can to hold yours and your pets trust.

“Laura and her husband truly go above and beyond when caring for our dog. This was our dog’s second time staying with Laura and it was over the holiday weekend. Laura eased my worries I had about the neighborhood fireworks that could possibly stress out my dog and she assured me that there would be classical music played for my dog to create a more comfortable environment. Laura always sends daily updates and pictures which I really appreciate. I always know my fur baby is receiving the upmost care and love. I will absolutely be reaching out to Laura again for future dog care!”
“Marlo is always amazing with Rufus. He has been with her several times now and she always updates me consistently with picture. I will continue to use her until she says no”
“Our first time using Rover, and Erin was a pleasure to work with. She communicated well and managed our 2 year old Doberman well. Overall, good experience. Thank you Erin.”
“It was our first time getting a sitter, Mollie and her family was AMAZING, Nala had a great time. She provided care for nala like she was her own, kept me updated and communication was great. I Will definitely book Mollie again. She was awesome! Thanks again!”
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”
“Michael and Rambo are great! Michael is great with dogs of all energy levels and personalities. Our dog got plenty of playtime and love while there, and we loved the daily photos. We recommend and will use again! Thank you!”
“Corinne and Louis are amazing! You can tell they really care about dogs and they treated Wallie like their own. I was sent several updates and they communicated very well throughout the day. We plan on using them again!”
“After having a family emergency, I had reached out in extremely short notice to see if Lianna could watch my one year old pup for two nights. She gladly accepted and assured me he was in good care upon drop off. Lianna was great about sending pictures and videos of Zyon which brought more reassurance. Overall would rate this a great experience and I will definitely be sending my puppy back.”
“Irene was great with our pups! We would love for her to sit for them in the future. She shared updates while we were on our trip. She reviewed the care document, and knew how to set up their crates and put their complicated harnesses on. Our pups are high energy breeds and but they came home relaxed and content. When we went to pick them up Bone Thug ran back to give Irene a little pup love before leaving. That was the biggest sign of care and happiness to me.”

Whether your dog enjoys relaxing, playing, or going for walks, we’ll do our best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel right at home.

My flexible schedule allows me to give dogs consistent attention and keep them on their normal routine Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. We have a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and no other pets in the home, allowing us to focus on your dog’s individual needs.

I’ll follow your dog’s routine as closely as possible and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Christa was awesome! My dog Toby is pretty finicky, but she went above and beyond, going to the grocery store to get him cheese and other special treats and making sure he felt comfortable. He also gets itchy skin especially when he is nervous so she got him coconut oil to rub on his fur. She also took him on so many fun beach adventures and concerts in the park which I really appreciated. I was really happy with Christa! Would trust her again to take care of my Toby!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth, and have always had a few dogs my whole life. We fell in love with English Bulldogs and I specialize in bulldog care. But I absolutely love all dogs! I can administer medication, give baths, and troubleshoot any issues that might occur. What to expect: I will treat your fur baby exactly as you would, I will follow directions exactly as you give them. They’ll be treated with love and care. If you book for drop in care, I’ll be sure to give them lots of attention before I leave and make sure all their needs are taken care of before I leave. If you’re booking for daily walks, I will take them around the neighborhood or a nearby park to get lots of exercise and get some energy out. If you’re booking for boarding. We have a large fenced in yard and air conditioned garage with crates. Your pet will receive lots of love in our home! I’ve always been a stay at home mom. I have 3 children who are also animal lovers. I have plenty of time in my day for any schedule that fits your pets needs best. We have a very large fenced in yard, and 4 bulldogs of our own that are all rotated throughout the day from inside to outside. They get daily walks, and there’s plenty of humans to give them lots of love during their stay with us! If I’m doing a daily check in or daily walk, you can trust they’ll be safe in my care. I’m very patient and will go at your animals pace.
“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“Our dog Blue had the best time staying with Dianiris and her family. From the get go, Dianiris responded quickly to texts and was very kind and reassuring (I might have been having a little separation anxiety of my own lol). I really appreciated all of the check-ins and photos she sent while Blue was with her too. Dianiris will definitely be our go-to sitter if we are back in the area!”
About: We have both had dogs almost all of our lives. We have experience with puppies, young dogs, middle aged dogs and seniors. Having recently lost our last one (a Malti-Tzu) at the age of 15, we have even more senior experience, including injections, picky eaters, giving meds (pills, drops, foams, sprays, etc). One of us is almost always home, so your dog/s will usually have someone there giving them love and attention. We live in a quiet neighborhood with good sidewalks to get some good sniffs and walks in too. Working from home gives us plenty of time with your dog. Occasionally we will need to go run errands or to an appointment, so your dog would not be alone long, if that happens to overlap. We get up somewhat early, between 6-7:30 am, and can walk your dog/s then, and as needed throughout the day, along with a longer daily walk if your pup needs it, and then an evening walk around 8:00 pm, or whatever your dogs needs are. We like to tailor our care to your dog’s needs, be it more active and wanting more play time and walks, or more downtime and cuddles. We have dog beds, dog bowls, and general dog supplies, and just enjoy being with them and making them happy…and maybe even a little spoiling :)
About: I’ve cared for dogs and other pets for many years for family, friends, and neighbors. I’m comfortable feeding, walking, playing with, and checking in on pets while their owners are away. I treat every pet with patience, love, and attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable in my care. I’m currently a stay at home mom and I spend plenty of time at home. Therefore, my availability for boarding your pet is flexible. I have a fenced yard and I can easily crate your dog if needed. I will supervise your pets and will follow the owner’s instructions.
