“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!”
“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.”
“Araceli is great and her house is perfect for my smedium sized dog! I know that Scout felt at home and enjoyed running around her yard when she wasn’t lazing around. That allowed me to enjoy my trip knowing she was in good hands thank you Araceli for taking such good care of Scout! 🐾”
“Monique was really great to work with, showing a lot of flexibility in a frequently changing situation with workmen taking over my apartment. The cats seemed to have enjoyed their time and returned home without any signs of stress! I would highly recommend Monique!”
“Cristina was amazing with our boys! Very responsive, sent lots of pictures, and spoiled them all week! Will absolutely be using Cristina again in the future! Highly recommend!”
“It is obvious how much Marwa loves cats and takes great care of them. She was a lifesaver for my Felix as he is newly rescued, was sick and not neutered so I had very limited options on where to board him, but she was happy to have him as her only cat for the week I was gone. He loved her and came back a happy cat.”
“Wonderful host! Bella was comfortable with Robin right away and came home tired and happy! Really appreciate all of the daily pictures and videos. Can’t recommend enough!”
“I could not be more pleased!! Savannah is a gem! I’m a worrier and Savannah put me at ease and I could tell she cared for our dogs like they were her own. My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.”
“Melanie is such a kind and loving petsitter--and her longtime experience caring for senior dogs is such a huge benefit, too--she's given me great tips on things like how to get my dog to take his medicine and suggestions about how to help his mobility.”
“Thank you, Pilar for always down to take care of Kai and for giving him all the love while my husband and I were away. You are one of Kai's favorite people now. Thank you po! :)”
“Dama was very knowledgeable and accommodating with our little pup! She took time to let him warm up for his first stay with her. We’re thankful to find another great sitter and look forward to Sunny’s next stay with her!”
“Jessica did an excellent job caring for my two pups, especially after a very last minute request when my other sitter fell through. She was an excellent communicator, made pick up and drop off easy, and sent me pictures throughout her time with the pups.”
“Highly recommend! Our boy rocky had fun with Pamela. She took great care of him. She sent us photos and kept us updated. Will absolutely use again. Do not hesitate to hire Pamela!”
“Coco loves Ana and her husband! They really treat her like they would their own pup. They are super accommodating to her needs as an anxious dog with separation anxiety, and I know she loves the extra affection and attention that they give her while she stays with them. This is Coco’s second time staying with them, and we would book again with Ana!”
“Lisa is incredible! Not only is she super kind and helpful for drop off and picks ups but my pup is OBSESSED!! Lisa is so great about taking mango on tons of walks and socializing her with other dogs. Lisa is also great about keeping me informed with daily messages and pictures. I feel like I save her pictures as my background more often than my own! All in all, mango and I will always go to Lisa :)”

About: I love cats and I’ve taken care of cats pretty much my whole life. I have a sweet cat of my own named Velvet. I always make sure she has her meals, clean her litter box, and made sure she has fresh water, and that I have lots of playtime with her. I do the very same for all other cats that I take care of as well.
“Thank you Ana for taking care of my boys during the busy holiday weekend. I appreciate that you were able to step up and cover an extra day when my flight was canceled as part of the Southwest meltdown.”
About: I’ve boarded two dogs before at my own place and I have cat sat at a few owners houses before. I’m responsible and will communicate when I check in on your loved pets. As tax, I will always send a photo of your pet as well every time I check in on them and truly enjoy spending some playtime with them as well. I live by a little lake that’s great for walks too! I currently am flexible to make time to care for your furry family members. Happy to see photos and do a chat before deciding if this may be a good fit! I will make time and open for cuddles if you allow your pet bed/couch time. But if you don’t like that, I can reinforce it’s not okay while on you’re away. With your permission, I let the pets enjoy a Netflix experience by putting on YouTube videos of animal footage they might enjoy.
About: I have always loved cats and have had many cats throughout my life. Caring for them has given me experience with a variety of personalities, from playful and social cats to those who are more independent and shy. I understand the importance of patience, routine, and making sure cats feel comfortable and secure in their environment. I am reliable, attentive, and committed to providing loving care while you’re away.
About: I’ve had the privilege of growing up with cats and caring for them throughout my professional career as both a veterinary technician and a kennel attendant. This experience has given me a deep understanding of feline behavior across a wide range of situations. I truly believe that cats are happiest and least stressed when they can remain in the comfort of their own home, and I love being able to support both pets and their owners by providing calm, reliable care in a familiar environment.

“Monique was wonderful! I had a last minute (less than 12 hours) cancellation from my primary dog sitter and Monique was quick to respond. I couldn’t be more grateful.

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.
“It was clear that our 2 year old pup had a great time playing with Jessica's dog all day. She passed out on the couch right after dinner with no interest in training or treats, she was that tired (which we love for her). We look forward to having Jessica care for her more in the future.”
“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 ! :)”
“William is super awesome. He took great care of our young pup and was a very cool and funny guy to boot. He was definitley flexible and super responsive. He’ll be a great buddy for my buddy going forward.”
“Zaira was amazing with our dog during the three days we needed daytime care while we were out. She was excellent with communication from the very beginning and very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, which we really appreciated. We did a brief meet-and-greet session first, and after that Zaira took our Labrador in without any issues. She also has her own dog, Malik (she’s a sweetheart!), and they got along really well, so we had no worries at all. Over the three days, Zaira took great care of our dog, shared pictures regularly, and kept us posted, which gave us complete peace of mind. If you’re visiting San Diego and need a reliable and caring place to leave your pup, Zaira is someone you can trust without hesitation. Highly recommended!”
“Antonio was the best. I got regular video updates and my dog was clearly having the best time during his stay. I look forward to working with Antonio again in the future.”

About: Before I could speak my first standard language, I would speak with animals. This led me to care for neighbors', friends', family's, fosters and stray animals beginning in elementary school.

I currently make my own schedule, and always seek to spend time with a friend or family's animals. A key thing to note is that my fiancé & I share a vehicle, so we are a package deal. She is also an (inactive) Rover provider and can share her info upon request. I am very physically active and enjoy a pup to run / hike with as well. I travel throughout the metro area for business and meetings as well, so I am willing to go anywhere to be a blessing. Transparency and communication is key, always reaching out to the client to ensure I am following proper procedures. I provide the service of package / mail collection, taking the trash out on trash day, pup-poo yard clean up, and as a skilled trade handyman - can provide assistance / service upon discussion. I strive to leave your home as clean or better than when I arrived.

About: Hi! My name is Victoria, and caring for animals has been a huge part of my life. I’ve had experience caring for many different types of animals over the years, but dogs have always held a special place in my heart. I absolutely love spending time with them and building strong, trusting bonds with each dog I meet. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I have four dogs of my own—two Chihuahuas, one Pomsky, and one Chow Chow—so I’m very familiar with caring for dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from young puppies who need extra attention and training reinforcement to senior dogs who require patience, gentle care, and specialized routines. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether your dog is high-energy and loves walks and playtime or prefers a calm and relaxing environment, I can provide the individualized care they need.

I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! A little about me! I earned my Associate’s degree in Behavioral and Social Sciences and am currently continuing my education to complete my Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology.

I also work part-time as an in-home caregiver, which has strengthened my sense of responsibility, compassion, and attentiveness. Because of my flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pup and ensure they receive the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I am available most mornings throughout the week, with the exception of Thursdays and Sundays, and I look forward to providing a safe, loving, and dependable experience for both you and your furry family member.

My home provides a loving, pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and relaxed during their stay. I also have four extremely friendly dogs of my own—two Chihuahuas, one Pomsky, and one Chow Chow—who love meeting new furry friends. They are well-socialized and enjoy playing, making them great companions for dogs who enjoy interaction and socialization. Of course, I always pay close attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level to ensure a safe and positive experience for everyone. Whether your pup loves playtime, cuddles, outdoor adventures, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, they’ll be treated like family and receive plenty of love, attention, and care while they’re with me.

“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.”
“Monique was really great to work with, showing a lot of flexibility in a frequently changing situation with workmen taking over my apartment. The cats seemed to have enjoyed their time and returned home without any signs of stress! I would highly recommend Monique!”
“I could not be more pleased!! Savannah is a gem! I’m a worrier and Savannah put me at ease and I could tell she cared for our dogs like they were her own. My dog isn’t much for people and he was giving Savannah hugs on his way out. He didn’t want to leave! Hannah was beyond flexible with our flight delays and I greatly appreciated it!! As long as Savannah is willing to accept us as client again I don’t see myself trusting anyone else.”
“Jessica did an excellent job caring for my two pups, especially after a very last minute request when my other sitter fell through. She was an excellent communicator, made pick up and drop off easy, and sent me pictures throughout her time with the pups.”
“Highly recommend! Our boy rocky had fun with Pamela. She took great care of him. She sent us photos and kept us updated. Will absolutely use again. Do not hesitate to hire Pamela!”
“Lisa is incredible! Not only is she super kind and helpful for drop off and picks ups but my pup is OBSESSED!! Lisa is so great about taking mango on tons of walks and socializing her with other dogs. Lisa is also great about keeping me informed with daily messages and pictures. I feel like I save her pictures as my background more often than my own! All in all, mango and I will always go to Lisa :)”
“Chris and Shane were great to work with an d tok great care of our Dolly . Dolly loved staying with them . We will definitely be having her stay with them again . Thank you both very much”
“Melanie provided exactly what I needed for my dogs a worry free stay and a quick pick up and drop off. She made herself available accordingly to my schedule and I’m so grateful she was able to take care of them this weekend. Thank you!”
“Mihaela did an amazing job watching my doggo. My dog is senior so she needs more care, and she was very attentive, kind, and kept me informed. Highly recommend her!”
“Jessica was an amazing sitter while we were away. She was kind, thoughtful, and was even able to watch our kitten Dolly for the weekend with such short notice. She sent us updates about how Dolly was adjusting along with photos. It’s clear her home is full of animal lovers! We could not recommend her more. Thank you Jessica!”
“A great experience all around. Our girl Maya stayed with Ami and her family for three nights. Ami was very communicative and sent updates with pictures every day, which I really appreciated. Once we picked her up, Maya was content and ready for a nap. Oh and Ami's dog Coco is a sweetheart 💖 The first day she greeted Maya with lots of waggy tails and friendly sniffs. If you're looking to board your dog, I highly recommend Ami and her family. They made us feel very comfortable, starting with the meet and greet and through Maya's stay.”
“Another great stay, LeeLoo gets happy every time she sees their house. Maryjane also does a great job taking care of her and communication and daily updates.”
“Claudia is amazing! She is very thoughtful, considerate, and detail-oriented when it comes to dog sitting/boarding. My senior pups loved her. Highly recommended!”
“Have used Anar twice now and had a great experience each time! My pup comes home happy and she is quick to respond and sends lots of updates. Would highly recommend :)”
“Murphy always has a great time with Zaira and Malik! Zaira sends so many updates and I can tell she really enjoys spending time with Murphy! Thanks for taking great care of her and showing her a good time!! Highly recommend them for your next trip!”
