“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!”
“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.”
“Anna was amazing watching my dog Willow for the first time. I had a lot of anxiety leaving her after just moving to San Diego, but Anna immediately put me at ease. She was so kind and treated Willow like her own, letting her relax and feel comfortable in her home. She kept me updated and sent great pictures that made me really happy. I truly appreciated her communication and care—would absolutely recommend her! She’s wonderful and you can see how much she loves and cares about dogs! Willow had a great time!”
“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!”
“Natasha was incredibly attentive to our 8 month old pup and communicated regular updates! I appreciated that she asked how frequently we wanted updates to help set expectations upfront. She made sure our pup was not just well taken care of but engaged and exercised regularly, plus she kept up with training which was a bonus. We even went through travel delays getting home and she was flexible to accommodate the extra time, it was great knowing our dog was taken care of and didn't add to the stress of travel. We would absolutely use Natasha again.”
“Benjamin was absolutely the best! He was responsive, kind, and so easy to work with. Our baby Salem adored him and loved having a new furry best friend to play with. We always felt she was safe and cared for, and we appreciated the thoughtful updates along the way. When we’re back, we’ll definitely book with Benjamin again and recommend him to all our friends with furry babies. Thank you, Benjamin, for being so wonderful and for accommodating us on such short notice!”
“Robin & Rahn are amazing! Our dog, Mookie, had the best time. We received tons of pics and videos throughout the weekend - plenty of walks, exploring and playing fetch! We couldn’t recommend them more ☺️”
“Chau is awesome! Our two dogs did great in their stay with her for almost two weeks! She walked them and took great care of them. We also really appreciated her sending us pictures and providing a quick update throughout our trip. It did a lot to ease the worry of leaving them for so long with a new caretaker. We will definitely be using her again in the future and would highly recommend her!”

“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!”
“This was our first time using Jordan, and it was a great experience from start to finish. She was super attentive and kept us updated with pictures, which we really appreciated. She even took the time to meet Kai beforehand, which made us feel so much more comfortable. She was always responsive and worked around our schedule—every time we messaged her, she got back to us quickly. Communication was easy the whole time. Kai came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We’re already planning to rebook with Jordan!”

“Melissa responded very quickly and was able to accommodate us last minute. She did a fantastic job taking care of our frenchie and kept us updated every day. We felt very comfortable with her from the start; our boy didn't want to leave when we went to pick him up. She is highly recommended, and we will be contacting her again for our future sitting needs.”
“Shana was patient with Aeko settling in on the first night. She sent a lot of videos and pictures which were great to see while we were out of town. We could tell he was happy and having fun. We felt very comfortable and reassured with Shana as Aeko’s sitter and will definitely book with her in the future.”

“Latisha swooped in to save the day for our cats while we were out of town this week! Although the phrase “come rain or come shine” is rarely applicable in San Diego, it was this week and it didn’t affect the amazing care our cats received. Thanks as always 🙌🙏”
“I’m really thankful that we got in touch with such a wonderful sitter like Angela! She was very communicative and sent detailed updates, with a ton of photos. My cat is usually shy and a little sassy, but she opened up to Angela fairly quickly and was so affectionate towards her. I felt at ease during my trip and felt like Mimi was in good hands. I highly recommend her!”
“Alena did a great job cat sitting! She was very responsive and sent updates and pictures. Thankful she made me feel that my kitty was in good hands while we were away on vacation.”
About: I have always been an animal lover so since my childhood I have helped care for dogs and cats. I would care for my neighbors cats when they were on vacation and volunteered at the animal shelter in high school giving me experience with cats. Many of my friends have cats and I have been their go-to cat sitters for years. I recently lived with my first cat this past year when my boyfriend and Mia moved in. Mia was 19 years old at the time and required special care such as medication twice a day. I got really good at administering her pills which she hated but I learned how to do it gently and quickly. From my experience with kitties of all ages I have learned how to make them comfortable around me and provide the care and attention they need when their family is not around.

“Alexia took wonderful care of my two cats! She has experience with animals and is kind and communicative and was available at a last minute when I needed it. Would recommend her to anyone!”
“It was a last minute booking - I recently moved to San Diego and had to go on a work trip and was nervous of leaving my fur baby. Petunia agreed to a meet and greet and I felt reassured that Zaya was in great hands! Never once did I worry about my cat! I’m so glad I found Petunia. It was my first booking with her and she exceeded all my expectations! She was very responsive, and always on time or early! Petunia even managed to get my cat to come out and hang out with her! Thank you!! ❤️”
“Jayms was lovely with my kitty! She was communicative, flexible, and easy to work with. A glass frame broke while I was away, and Jayms came over, earlier than planned, to make sure my kitty was ok and to clean up the glass. I would absolutely book her again!”
“Caitlin took EXCELLENT care of our kitties, she gave us super detailed check ins, lots of photos, and I can tell she really treated our babies like her own. We would 1000% recommend Caitlin!”
“Kaitlyn was extremely communicative, punctual, kind, good-humored, and got along very well with my cat. My cat seemed well cared for when I got back from my two week trip and everything was tidy and in its place. I would definitely hire her again and would recommend her to anyone. Thanks Kaitlyn!”
“I highly recommend Joanna! I dropped my cat off for the day with her and the experience was 5-star. Communication and booking was very easy. Drop off instructions/location were clear and both drop-off/pick-up went smooth with no issues. My cat is very timid and Joanna took extra care to make sure that she was comfortable and arranged a quiet space for her which was very thoughtful. She sent me pictures and updates throughout the day. I felt very assured that my cat was well take care of and I will absolutely book her again for drop off or in-house sitting and recommend her you all book as well!”
“Nicholas once again went above and beyond for our cat Pete!!! He gave us very detailed daily updates with lots of photos, which we appreciated since he watched our cat for such a long time! Pete was always so happy to see him, and I really appreciated how Nicholas took the time to play with him. He has watched Pete on two separate occasions, one of the occasions lasting almost two weeks, and we would highly recommend him!”

“Alexandra was OUTSTANDING. Excellent communication, on time, reliable, and so kind to my new rescue. I had several people decline taking my new 1 yr old rescue but Alexandra came to my rescue!

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: I’ve been around pets since i was a kid, family dog was a chocolate lab the cocker spaniel. I’ve was blessed with training 3 amazing dogs. Koda (husky), Cabela (Belgian Malinois), Remi (Weimaraner). Koda had seizures and i know how to administer pills as well as the nasal injection for when they are actively having a seizure. Cabela had no issues but she was high energy which i would take her on hikes, swimming and play ball for hours. Remi is diabetic and blind due to the insulin so i know how to administer insulin as well. I work from 8-430 Monday through Friday. Thursday and Friday i am fully remote so i am more available those days. Mon-Wednesday i work remote after 12 (as long as there is nothing urgent occurring at work). In my first home i spent quite a bit of money for my dogs to have a fenced in yard and a custom dog run area as well. My dogs were crate trained for bed time and when they were fed, I can follow your lead on how your pet is trained :)!
About: Hi, I’m Jana! I am a full-time physical therapist looking to spend time with some pups since I currently do not have one of my own. I’ve been a passionate animal lover my entire life, growing up with a beloved family dog and later raising my own Australian Shepherd from a puppy. Because of my Aussie, I am incredibly comfortable managing high-energy breeds and keeping up with demanding exercise schedules, making me the perfect match for active dogs who love long, fulfilling walks. Over the years, I’ve also become the trusted, go-to dog and cat sitter for my friends. Through these diverse experiences, I’ve developed a deep understanding of animal behavior and know exactly how to read their cues to make them feel safe, secure, and completely comfortable around me. Above all, safety is my absolute top priority. I approach every walk and sitting session with extreme care, ensuring your furry family member is never put in danger. I can't wait to meet your pet and provide the reliable, attentive care they deserve! Certifications: Cat and Dog First Aid and IAP Dog Walker certified. I currently work Tuesday through Fridays so I am available Saturday, Sunday and Mondays when most pet parents may be traveling. Also, I am willing to walk or drop in during my days off for those who work weekends! When caring for pets at their own home I prioritize their needs as well as the privacy of my clients. I will always treat their home with respect. If your pup is staying with me, be assured I will keep them on their normal schedule and give them the love and attention they deserve.

About: I currently have the privilege of having two senior dogs that have been in my care for 13 years. I am aware of the patience, love and commitment it takes, having and caring for a pet that solely relies on you. I am comfortable administering medications and dealing with food modifications. I have also helped foster in the past. I am home during the day, with light serving shift 3 times a week at night. Long or short walks are available, as well as playtime, boarding and overnight care. My home is your pets home! I love my neighborhood. While I do not have direct access to a back yard, I am super close to multiple dog parks and live in a very walkable neighborhood.
About: I am Bradley and I have taken care of dogs for the past 10 years. My own dog is almost 9 years old, 20 pounds, and is very friendly. I dog sit pretty often and love have extra furry friends stay with us. We have close access to grass for potty breaks and Balboa Park is only a few blocks away. We love to get outside and walk the neighborhood. I work from home, so I have lots of time to make sure any dogs staying with me has plenty of time to get outside and play. I typically am outside with my dog 4x a day. My own home has plenty of space to roam around. My dog is very friendly but typically keeps to herself even when other dogs are around. I am always available to help your dog for any particular need they might have.

I mentioned a few things I was worried about with boarding, and he was incredibly kind and reassuring. He immediately suggested doing a meet and greet so we could both feel comfortable, which I really appreciated. The meet and greet went perfectly. Roxy instantly loved the environment and all the dogs he had there. Arthur took the time to walk me through everything and answered every question I had. Since this was my first time boarding my dog, I was honestly a little nervous, but he made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. He’s also super responsive with messages, which made communication really smooth the entire time. You can tell he genuinely cares about the dogs he watches. A+++ experience. Definitely 5 stars, and I will absolutely be boarding Roxy with him again!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life and have experience with dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments. Over the years I’ve owned and cared for multiple pets, including helping with feeding routines, walks, play, medications when needed, and creating a calm, safe environment for them. I’m reliable, attentive, and understand how important consistency and trust are when someone is leaving their pet in another person’s care. My schedule is very flexible since I work and attend school online from home. That allows me to be present with pets throughout the day and provide consistent care, attention, and companionship. I live in a calm, pet-friendly home with a secure enclosed yard and a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day. I currently have a friendly cat and create a safe, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed.
