“Nia was very responsive and flexible with my drop off and arrival times. I enjoyed the daily updates. She even had a gift bag when I picked up Duke. I would definitely recommend Nia.”
“Sarah did an amazing job taking care of Rico while we were out of town for the day. She sent tons of pictures of him having a blast with her dog Finn throughout the day. I will definitely be booking her the next time we need a sitter!”


“Lisa took incredible care of my pup and I felt completely worry free on my trip knowing he was in good hands. She sent daily updates and I could tell he was happy and well pampered 🥰 I would definitely trust her with Cannoli again!”

“Janet was amazing and an absolute godsend. I came to San Diego on a trip and my plans changed at least 3-4x. Through it all, Janet was super communicative and accommodating and constantly worked around my scheduling changes. She frequently sent updates and pictures. My pup Mishka was in great hands and had a ton of playtime everyday and had the best time staying with Janet! Mishka was clearly very happy and well looked after the whole time at her house. I would come back to Janet again and again for any dog sitting or boarding!”
“We’ve never left our dog Chai with anyone other than family and we’re a bit hesitant about leaving her for a few days. When dropping Chai off, Brittany instantly made us feel so comfortable and reassured us that our dog would be just fine. Chai took a liking to Brittany very quickly. Brittany was so good at keeping us updated throughout the day with pictures and a quick update with how Chai was doing and what they had been up too. They went on walks at least twice a day and cuddled (Chai’s favorite). When it was time to pick Chai up we could tell Brittany and Chai had bonded. We are pleased to have met Brittany and highly recommend her to anyone who is in the San Diego area or coming from out of town like us and needing someone who is truly trusting and felt like we were leaving our Chai with family. We will most definitely be looking Brittany up if we are back in the San Diego area in the future.”

“Alicia is wonderful. She is very communicative since the beginning. Took lots of pics of my 4 legged child. Made me feel at ease that my dog was well taken care of. Would definitely recommend her. Thanks Alicia.”

“4th time! Rachelle is THE BEST! She sends so many pictures, kept our dogs an extra night when our flight was delayed, and even made cute little ink paw prints! We trust Rachelle to always take the best care of our pups.”

“This was Willow’s second time staying with Araceli, and when I picked her up, she didn’t want to come home! Araceli is the best, her manner with pups and her joyfulness with being a sitter is what makes me effortlessly comfortable to leave my Willow with her. Willow loves her “Tia” and she’ll be back!”

“My dog seemed happy & safe! Sitter answered all my questions when I checked in, and provided photos. I Did wish I got more updates/ pictures but I was an especially nervous pet parent since I had just moved before dropping off my dog and was worried about him being stressed. Other than that everything went smoothly for drop off and pickup and he was great at accepting a last minute booking and accommodating to my times! Would recommend booking with him :)”

“Kaitlin & Verle took amazing care of our dog Punky. She clearly loves it there, and they are very attentive, caring, and communicative--can't recommend highly enough!”

“Jennifer was so great. We had our wedding that weekend and some plans for my dog ended up changing and we needed Jennifer an extra day. She was flexible. She took such great care of my Navi and sent daily pics. She was communicative and very kind. We really appreciated her.”

“Yasmine was willing to take care of my Ladie on a short notice when I needed her to be watched. Picked up a very happy pup at the end of the day, I can tell they had a great time(:”

“Ilsa was amazing! She took phenomenal care of Bella and I have literally never seen her so happy when picking her up from a sitter. She was super flexible on pickup and drop-off times and very communicative during our trip. She even took her to Norm's in Fremont! We will definitely have Ilsa watch Bella again.”

“Couldn’t ask for a better care for our Dobermans. Plenty updated and photos, dogs has lots of activities and love from Monica and her husband. Highly recommended! 🥰”

“Ashley and Andy took wonderful care of Leo! They treated him like part of the family, and we could tell he was happy, comfortable, and well loved throughout his stay. Leo especially loved playing with Juniper and Pepe. They were great companions for him, and he came home happy and tired from all the fun. Ashley and Andy were kind, communicative, and clearly care deeply about the dogs they watch. We would happily leave Leo with them again and highly recommend them!”

About: I've had dogs and cats my entire life. We currently have two rescue beagles and 5 rescued cats. I do not currently work and can be home with your animals unless running short errands, and once someone enters our home they are family and will be treated like the spoiled royalty they are. I'm happy to send updates and pictures throughout their stay as well. I do not currently work, so I have all the time in the world for your furry friend. The animals rule our house and are allowed on all furniture/beds so they will be very comfortable. I do walks in the early morning with my dogs, but could also do day time/evening walks if your pets need. We have a fenced in dog-run with 24/7 access through a 1-flap dog door. They can go in and out as they please, but the fences are only 3ft high in the dog run, so jumpers/runners might not be the best fit. We feed our dogs twice a day and cannot free-feed animals.
“Bryan was awesome! We needed someone to watch our little guy while we traveled for ten days. Bryan is very kind and definitely knowledgeable about dogs. We got photo updates almost every day and our pup was clearly having a great time! Thanks again, Bryan!”

“100% recommend booking Molly. She watched our dog in her home for three nights and I felt like Paddy was in a safe, comfortable and happy place. She is clearly an animal lover. We had some specific requirements about our dogs interactions with others and Molly followed them perfectly, which I hugely appreciate.”

About: I’ve grown up with cats since birth, and they have a special place in my heart. Most recently I’ve taken care of two Siamese kitties for an artist that is always on the move. This required lots of overnights and special care and medications for older kitties.
“Danielle was very communicative and took great care of my pet. Checking in with many pictures and spending time with him. She was very respectful of my home while I was away. I’m very happy with her work”

“Jade took amazing care of our Devon rex, Felipe!! She took the time to give us thorough updates and sent pictures of him every time she came by for a drop in visit which we really appreciated because we were missing our baby!! We will absolutely book with her for the next time we need care. Thank you, Jade!!”


“Sarah is awesome! My two cats loved her right away - even the shy one. She was great with their meds, sending updates & pictures, and really actively playing with them. I am pretty sure they didn’t miss us at all. 10/10 - we will definitely be asking Sarah to come by next time we’re out of town!”


“Lidiia was fantastic. Unfortunately, kitty was a bit shy and didn’t come out until the last day but, Lidiia still sent me great updates and photos. It felt great to know she was being looked after while I was gone and Luna seemed quite content when I returned. I’d definitely recommend and book with Lidiia again!”


About: I can't remember a time when I didn't live with a cat. I grew up with two cats in the house, Simpson and Janice, and developed a very strong bond with them. Six years ago, I adopted my cat Dilma. She had spent the first two years of her life in a shelter, and was very poorly socialized with people. Since, she has grown into a sweet and loving cat. The treats and furniture scratching definitely helped.

“Brandon is an incredible sitter. He was super communicative and thorough with my kitty’s needs. Loved seeing the daily pics and knowing my cat was in good hands. Definitely recommend!”


“I had to go out of town last minute and Destiny was responsive and flexible. She always does an amazing job taking care of my Cleo! I appreciate her updates and visit summaries.”


“Kristin was great! I was initially hesitant about leaving my puppy with a stranger for drop offs but he immediately loved her and they seemed to have such a good time. I loved all the photos she sent of him!”

“Alexandra did a wonderful job with our pup!! She kept us in the know the whole time and left the cutest pics! We will definitely book with her again and would recommend!”


“Heather is always outstanding at watching and caring for my geriatric cat. She pays special attention to toileting habits, feeding schedule, and the cat’s temperament. I enjoy receiving her amazing photos of my cat and cute little visit updates. 1000% recommend Heather!”

“Samantha is incredible and has become one of our go-to catsitters whenever we need to leave for a trip. Our cat clearly trusts and appreciates Samantha, and we consistently feel so reassured that our lil girl has a loving, reliable friend who can look after her! :)”

About: I grew up loving dogs and have always considered them to be more than a best friend. They’re a member of the family! After COVID, I started dog sitting for friends and family members in my free time because it was so fun, and it was a nice break from my full-time job as a copywriter for Walmart’s corporate team. In 2024, I took my love for dogs a step further and got my own puppy. His name is Yukon, and he’s a lovable goofball with lots of energy. I’ve loved seeing his personality develop over the last few years and having chats with him about what makes him happy (he’s a Pomeranian Husky mix, so he’s always got lots to tell me!) It’s been such a joy to watch him grow into the happy little man that he is today. My goal as a sitter is to give your dog the best care that I can offer. I’ve house sat for dogs that need senior care (daily medications/specific food requirements), puppies that are just learning to navigate the world, energetic breeds that have high activity requirements, and larger dogs. I love them all and I’d love to offer you peace of mind knowing that your fur baby will be in the best hands should you choose to trust me with their care. ❤️🐾 I’m currently working part-time as a personal trainer trying to build up that business, so I have plenty of available hours for house visits, walks, and playtime. I live in a fenced in community that is very dog friendly. Your dog will be able to interact with Yukon—who is always looking to make new friends!—and the dogs in the neighborhood if they choose. It’s a great environment for socialization as well as for safety. I have room to crate your dog if needed or they are happy to explore my home and it make it their own as well. 😊 *Please note*: If you are hoping to book me for house sitting on an overnight basis, I will not be able to leave my own dog unattended. He’s absolutely great with other dogs and he loves people as well. I’m more than happy to do a meet and greet to see if it would be a fit for you and your pet, but if this is something you are not comfortable with, please book another sitter for this service.
“Olivia took great care of our cat! She was thorough with a pre-visit. She was kind and asked questions to make sure she knew exactly what to do. While we were traveling, she sent awesome updates and photos. We came back to a happy cat. We would definitely book her again!”


“Leilani was very professional and respectful of my cat and space! She did a great job and made sure to follow the daily instructions i left for her. I would reccomend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!”


“Brenda took great care of our girls! Sent pictures & up-dates daily. It’s tough not to worry about them, but we knew they were in good hands. Thank you, Brenda!”

“I would highly recommend Vanessa for daycare. She was flexible and could accommodate us last minute, which I am very grateful for! She was patient with my dog Kirby, who seemed well-cared for, happy, and tired when I picked her up. Thank you very much, Vanessa!”

About: I have experience walking, feeding, and caring for dogs, cats, and even quails! I want to help your pet get the exercise, food, water, and relief they need! Just let me know :) I am available until the sun goes down most days. If anything changes, I'll be sure to let you know ahead of time. Thanks! I have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of space to roll around, explore, sunbathe, or sit in the shade under a palm tree with a fan.
“She was so caring and attentive to my dog, and I love how she keeps you updated on everything. She was very accommodating given the fact that I had to drop of my dog really early for work. Would definitely recommend, I know I’ll be going to her for my pup.”


“Best communicator ever. Lots of pictures and professional with updates and site use. Flexible and accommodating with my schedule. Mika came back chill and not stressed. Will be booking again.”

“Zaira was a great sitter and provided several photos during my dogs day care with her. I would recommend her to others and plan to book with her again in the future.”

“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”

“Michelle was great with our anxious senior pup! He has separation anxiety and she created a very calming environment for him to hang out at and had a great system to ensure that he was comfortable. She was communicative and easy to plan with. We’ll definitely book with her again!”

“Anne and her family were wonderful right off the bat ! I immediately felt comfortable and safe leaving our new puppy with her ! She was always quick to respond with my questions before and during my puppy’s visit! We will definitely reach out again !”


“We frequently leave our pup Finca at Sam's house. Not only is he amazing with dogs, he always sends us update photos which show her having an amazing time. She's usually very tired from playing all day by the time we get her back, and she is always very excited to return. Thanks Sam!”
“Courtney was fantastic! We needed a last minute sitter to watch our Apollo for a few hours. She was super communicative and kept us updated with pictures and videos of our Apollo. He had so much fun with her and Poppy and instantly fell asleep when he got home. Would definitely recommend to anyone!”


“Chau was so helpful with our two dogs and very patient with our anxious one. She was so communicative and updated us with pictures multiple times a day. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“Hooli had a great doggy day care with Shane and Chris! It was our first time leaving our 7.5month old puppy and I could tell she was in good hands. We received lots of photos and updates which put mind at ease!”

“Jennifer was great with Poppy! She sent alot of pictures and updates, and Poppy came home exhausted! Would definitely use Jennifer again if I’m in the San Diego area. :)”

“Kian was excellent and kept me updated the whole time! He was very communicative and happy to get to know my dog and his specific needs. My dog seemed to really enjoy spending time with him! I will book with him again!”

“Mihaela was great! Helped me out with a walk for Maui on pretty short notice and she took lots of pictures and a video and gave a really nice detailed report after the walk 🥰 would absolutely use her again!”

“Allie is so great with my dog Sophie, who is a 13 year old lovable but leash aggressive dog. She handles her well and wasn’t hesitant to take us on as a client. She is also great about accommodating my unpredictable schedule, last minute requests and goes out of her way to be available for Sophie. Highly recommend!”

“She was very communicative and took pictures of my dogs and took them on a long walk. My dogs were so tired afterward. I really appreciate her also being accommodating with me. 10/10”

About: I grew up in rural Vermont taking care of animals in so many different ways. My family has always had dogs and cats, and I’ve always been the point person for neighbors when folks head out of town. I’ve also worked on a farm for six consecutive years helping care for all type of animals from rabbits, to cows, pigs, chickens, sheep and more. I just moved to San Diego this past month and do not have any prior engagements, so right now all my focus can be on making sure your animals needs are met! I would love nothing more than to see the animals in this city and build connections with them and you! Currently I have a small apartment, but am able to get to parks very near by. At the time, cats and smaller dogs would be suited for boarding and visiting!
“Vicky has been wonderful giving my pup regular weekly walks. She asked thoughtful questions during the meet and greet, is responsive and timely. And always provides updates/pics from the walks. Definitely recommend :)”

“Every dog loves enthusiastic playmates. Phillip fits the description. He is consistently professional, friendly, helpful and always right on time. I need to feel that my older dog is safe when going out walking in our neighborhood, the city. Phillip "brings it", when he comes to see Colette...she feels at home with him and Phillip leaves the pictures to prove it. :-).”


About: Hello there! 👋😃 I am excited to connect with you and learn about your precious fur babies! 🥰 My name is Jess and I am a lifelong cat and dog mom. With 2 cats, 2 dogs, and 2 fish at home, it’s safe to say I am a devout animal lover who cares deeply for our dear companions. I value safety, trust, communication, respect, and over-the-top high level, heartfelt care. Our animals are family, and I don’t take it lightly when I am entrusted with the safety and care of a sweet, precious little being! 🐕🦺🐾 I work for myself & remotely, so I have complete control over my schedule! This allows for maximum flexibility and enables me to come most anytime you’d need me. It is important to me to treat your space with the same love, respect, and care with which I treat my own home. I adhere to your house rules and have a personal policy of leaving a space better than I find it.
“Bebo was an excellent walker for our dog Spike! Very easy to communicate with and left thoughtful and descriptive summaries of the visits. Felt very much like our pup was in capable hands and we would definitely recommend!”

About: My entire life I've connected with animals. Even when I was young, animals gravitated to me, shy or hyper, old or young. It led my dad to call me the animal whisperer. I'm partial to cats, and adopted my cat Dilma six years ago. I love dog though, and grew up with a Golden Retriever in my family. Over the years, I've dog sat for family and friends many times. I have a very flexible schedule and job, freeing me up to watch pets during most times of the day. I also have a pet friendly car, so pets can be taken to appointments, parks etc. as needed. In my apartment, I've set up multiple ways my cat can enjoy and enrich herself. I have multiple scratching posts, wall-mounted beds and toys. I also have a porch area where I let her out for fresh air while supervised.

“Leilani went above and beyond to help with a reservation request for the next morning. Extremely professional and plenty of good pet photos! Would happily recommend to anyone!”

“Zaira is absolutely wonderful! Always reachable and communicative, and flexible when needed/possible. My dog loves her and she takes great care of him so I am never worried about him. Highly recommend :)”


About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs at once. I take care of my friends dogs sometimes having 3-4 dogs at once including my own to care for at the same time. I am mostly available during the weekdays during the morning and daytime and I can occasionally do weekends and evenings as well depending on my current schedule. I have two friendly puppers of my own. One of my dogs is 16 years old and the other is 5 years old. I also occasionally care for my friends dogs at my own home as well as going to their place to take care of them.
“Julio is great with my dogs! My border Collie puppy is nervous around new people. Julio was very gentle and patient with him. I appreciate Julio's calm demeanor and his commitment to learn about the dogs he walks, especially their behaviors and routines. He has good communication and feedback. Overall will definitely be booking again with Julio for dog walks!”

About: I have been fostering dogs through a local San Diego rescue for about 3.5 years. I love caring for all types of dogs, but have a particular affinity for large-breed dogs (our dog that we adopted is an 85 pound husky mix). Fostering dogs for the last few years and helping them find their forever homes has been such a rewarding experience, that I recently decided to turn my passion into a profession by going back to school to become a vet tech! I recently went back to school and currently only work weekends, so my schedule is very open during the weekdays in the summer months. During school months, I will be available Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. I have experience working with and walking dogs with extreme leash reactivity, and I will make sure to redirect your dog from any distractions or things that may upset them on their walks.
“Colleen was great! I had some very specific instructions for handling my dog and she was very open and receptive to everything I went over. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and I felt like I was leaving my pup in very loving hands.”

“Hana was wonderful with our slightly neurotic older poodle mix. When I picked her up after her overnight visit, she really seemed like she had had fun! And Hana's home environment seems like doggy paradise. She provided me pics throughout the day, and her communication was excellent. I would be glad to use Hana's services again.”

We had some specific requirements about our dogs interactions with others and Molly followed them perfectly, which I hugely appreciate.”

“Destiny is the first person I’ve trusted to watch my dog outside of family, and she made the entire experience perfect. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. If I ever need the service again, I will choose her every time. She sent daily updates with pictures and videos without me even having to ask, and my dog looked so loved and cared for the whole time. Destiny is also very accommodating and flexible. I felt bad because I had to make a last-minute change to the drop-off and pick-up times, and she was incredibly understanding and worked with me. Highly recommend—love her! 🐾”
