“Oh my goodness, Miss Stacy is truly a lifesaver! Words cannot express how wonderful and accommodating she is. I am hyper vigilant about my pup, and Stacy answered every question going above and beyond what anyone should have to. We were having medical procedures and had some complications. Stacy kept Romeo extra time and was willing to help out however she could. Not only did she take care of us, but Romeo is a border Collie - a breed that is high energy and high anxiety. He was not only well cared for, but flourished. I would now consider Stacy and her family (two and four legged variety) friends. That's the highest praise in my book.”
“Lisa was so wonderful and Roux had a great time with her and her pup. She’s fast with her replies, communicative, and shares updates throughout the entire process. She truly cares and ensured Roux was safe and comfortable. We will definitely call her again.”
“Our senior dog Lexi had a great few days with Agueda and her family! We appreciated the daily updates and will definitely book with Agueda again next time we're out of town. Thank you!”
“Anyway and her family is a keeper. She really took good care of my babies while I'm gone. Gave me a peace of mind. Toby and Marley find her as their 2nd mom. Its like their having a vacation away from their family. We will definitely bring them to her again. Thank you so much!”

“Desteny took amazing care of King when I had to go out of town. She sent photos of him every day, and he looked calm and happy in every single one. She was accommodating of his needs, and was willing to give him the same routine and structure that he has at home. I appreciate her willingness to provide boarding for King despite my request being short notice. Will definitely board with her next time!”
“Absolutely pleased with Kimberly and her watching my boys. She made me feel at ease that they were in good hands and they were. She kept, me informed and provided regular updates and pictures of Samsom and Thor.. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pets.”
“She was great with our senior dog. Definitely made this first experience a pleasant one and will use this app again in the future thanks to her great service.”
“Diana took care of our girl Maya very well and she sent daily updates with pictures. Maya seemed very happy in her place as seen in the pictures. We would surely go back there and we highly recommend Diana to be a sitter.”
“Angela was incredibly responsive and sweet! Definitely the best sitter we’ve ever had. Our two doggos loved being with her, it was such a relief to know that they were getting taken care of so well! She took them on walks often and played with them, my dogs loved her backyard to run around in! Incredibly thankful for such an attentive sitter. Kona and Graham will definitely be back! 💛✨”
“Lori was wonderful from first contact and booking to pick up. We needed a local sitter while on vacation and she was thoughtful enough to offer extra time which was appreciated. At drop off we noted a secure fenced area which was plenty large. It was evident she had read each of the profiles and knew about each pet. The indoor area had large pens. She sent pictures that showed all pets comfortable and relaxed. And the Great Dane with big smile. We wish we could find someone like her in our state”
“Dominique really saved my week by agreeing to a last minute booking when I unexpectedly had to rearrange my travel plans and find a place to board my dog the same day. She is friendly and great with dogs. I was worried about how my dog would get along with hers, but Dominique is an amazing pack leader and managed everything without incident. I appreciated the daily photos and updates with details of how my dog spent her day, how she was eating, and sleeping. I would definitely recommend Dominique as a dog sitter, and if I ever need a sitter in the future I will definitely reach out to her again! Thank you Dominique!”
“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!”
“I felt very comfortable leaving my dog in Diana’s care. This is the first time I left my dog overnight with someone and I have had my dog nine years. Now I can go places that don’t accept dogs and I feel comfortable leaving him behind.”
About: I've been caring for my own animals as soon as I was big and responsible enough too. I'd say 15-20+yrs.

I'd say I do well with teaching how to walk on a leash. I currently take care of my dog and I have 4hens and 1rooster. So it fits right in very well. I'm not working as we speak but I'm looking. I have a rather large front and back yard that raps all the way around the house. I have a small dog her name is Mary Jane. I have two dog kennels if u perfered to keep your dog in a crate.

“She’s absolutely incredible! We have used her several times now to watch our cats when we are out of town & they have the best time with her. She always takes the cutest cat photos during her visits & makes sure to leave the house cleaner than how we left it. She goes above & beyond to care for our animals & we will continue to book with her for future vacations.”
“Elizabeth did an amazing job taking care of my cats! 🐾 She was patient, responsible, and very caring, even double checking details to make sure everything was perfect. She gave me peace of mind while I was away, and I truly appreciate all the love and attention she gave to my babies. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful sitter! ❤️”

About: Hi there! Here’s a few fun facts about me: - I’m a strong proponent of litter cleanliness and always go above and beyond with this task - I believe it is courteous to let my cats sniff whatever I’m holding - I speak to cats like they’re people and try to learn their language I hope to share the love with all of the fur babies. I have experience with taking care of 5 cats at a time and have administered medications to one (pill by mouth twice daily).
About: Hello my name is Ivanna, I’m 33 years old. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and have loved animals since I was a little girl. Caring for dogs has always been something that brings me genuine happiness, and I truly enjoy building strong bonds with them while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have been responsible for the daily care of a Yorkie for the past 7 years, including feeding, grooming, exercise, general care, and accompanying them to veterinary and medical appointments. I also cared for a German Shepherd for 4 years, providing regular walks, feeding, cleaning, exercise, and attentive day-to-day care. I have also cared for an amazing Pug and Husky, and I quickly developed a wonderful bond with all of them. I absolutely adore dogs and take their well-being very seriously. I love taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them attention and affection, and making sure they are clean, well-fed, happy, and safe. To me, dogs are truly family, and I would treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I would give my own. I am currently caring for my two-year-old child and my 7 year old Yorkie, so my availability is Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. I am reliable, committed, and happy to work within these hours. I provide in-home pet care, where I care for dogs in their own homes, including patios and indoor spaces. My responsibilities include taking dogs on walks, feeding them, playing with them, providing companionship and attention, and making sure they are comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I am also comfortable providing baths when needed and administering prescribed oral medications according to the owner’s instructions. I always make sure pets receive the care, patience, and attention they need throughout my visit.
“This was the first time I had to find a sitter for my babies. It has been difficult especially since my sons are in law enforcement they were very skeptical about having me bring in someone I did not know into my home. I looked through many profiles and found Sylvia. I am extremely surprised on how well Dodger and Nala have been around Sylvia ESPECIALLY DODGER LOL They both have been very comfortable around her and that makes me feel better. Thank you Sylvia”
“Citlalic was an excellant sitter for my cat Bella. She followed my instructions perfectly and I came back to a happy, healthy furbaby. It is rare for sitters to see Bella let alone pet her but Citlalic was able to do both and sent me photos to prove it. I was shocked. Overall Citlalic was great and we would hire her for drop-in visits again and again.”
“Jiselle stepped in for a few weeks while our regular walker was unavailable. She was accommodating to our schedule with Chico and was willing to be flexible with the timing of things due to the hot weather. Definitely going to consider her again for future needs! 😊 Thank you Jiselle!”

About: Welcome to my page! I like to show kitties my love by making them feel at ease and trusting me to have a more positive experience all around. I have taken care of cats belonging to family members and neighbors, and it's always a great experience even with the shy fur babies.
About: Hi there! I’m a certified veterinary assistant and technician with over 4 years of hands-on experience working with both small and large animals, including 2 years at a feline exclusive hospital and of course experience with my own kitty’s. I provide a level of care that goes beyond standard pet sitting. I’m trained to administer all types of medications, monitor for any signs of illness or discomfort, and ensure your cat’s wellbeing with a calm, gentle approach. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or a little feisty, I understand how to make them feel safe and comfortable. My clients choose me for my professionalism, medical background, and attention to detail because their cats deserve the very best care.

About: I've spent my whole life around animals — 30+ years — but over the last decade, cats have completely won me over. Don't tell my dogs, but I secretly love cats most of all. There's something about earning a cat's trust that's just deeply satisfying. Right now my home includes two cats of my own, so I know the rhythm of cat care inside and out: the feeding routines, the litter box standards, the medication schedules, and most importantly, reading the difference between "leave me alone" and "okay, fine, you may pet me now." I respect that cats run on their own terms, and I never force interaction — I let your cat set the pace, which is exactly why they tend to warm up to me surprisingly quickly. With 30+ years of hands-on animal experience, very little fazes me. I'm calm, attentive, and genuinely happy spending time with your cat, whether that's an interactive play session, a quiet check-in, or just sitting nearby so they don't feel alone. What you can count on: someone reliable who shows up, follows your routine exactly, keeps your home and your cat just as you left them, and sends you updates (and photos!) so you can relax while you're away. Your cat will be in genuinely loving, capable hands. 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of cats my entire life, I grew up in a very cat loving family, and I currently have two of my own. I also have a one year old dachshund who is my bestfriend, we’re always out and about weather it’s at the dog beach, hikes, weenie meetups etc! 🐾 he is also super friendly, he loves being around other dogs. He prefers dogs over people! I currently work full time but I don’t work on the weekends. On weekdays I’m available anytime after 3pm however on the weekends I’m available all day! I have two of the friendliest kitties that are always looking for another friend to play with! They welcome both cats and dogs so as long as your fur baby is okay with cats it will work out perfectly and if not I can easily keep them away from your baby!

“Stacy saved my trip! I came to San Diego to bring my nephew to Legoland, and at the last minute my dog sitter had to cancel. My dog is not especially difficult to care for, per se, but he is old and has a lot of needs or else he gets anxious. Stacy not only stepped in to help on very short notice, but was incredibly kind and gracious about it. She treated my baby like he was her own. I feel very grateful and lucky to have found her and will definitely reach out if I need dog sitting in San Diego again. Thank you Stacy (and Ronnie)! My nephew and I are both very grateful that we got to go enjoy our day without having to worry.”
“I was so hesitant taking Adonis to a daycare because he’d never been to one. Today was the best experience EVER for us! He was able to warm up to Shania quickly. She sent me several pics of his stay and video of him walking. I drove away very confident when I dropped him off. I knew he was in great hands. Shania is friendly, kind and professional. I have found my forever sitter and Adonis has a wonderful new friend. I can’t wait for him to go back so I can do more things by myself. THANKS SHANIA💙”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of reliability, experience, and genuine love for animals—paired with a calm, patient approach that pets respond to. I don’t just watch pets; I build trust with them. Whether it's helping a nervous pup feel safe, administering medications to a senior dog, or maintaining consistent routines for multi-pet households, I treat each animal as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s something I truly enjoy and make time for. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or evening check-ins, I prioritize consistency and reliability for every pet I care for. I build my schedule around the needs of each animal, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at a client’s, my priority is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that mirrors their routine and reduces stress. In My Home: I provide a calm, pet-friendly space where animals can feel at ease. I follow their feeding, walking, and sleeping routines closely, offer supervised playtime, and ensure they’re never left alone for long periods. I also separate pets when needed for safety and comfort, and I keep a clean, secure environment with pet-proofed areas. In the Client’s Home: I treat the space with respect and care while maintaining the pet’s familiar environment. I stick to their established schedule, including meals, walks, medication, and playtime. I also send regular updates, photos, and notes so pet parents feel connected and confident while they’re away. No matter the setting, I prioritize safety, communication, and individualized care so each pet feels loved and well cared for.
“A big thanks for another fun day! My husband and I really appreciate Semran’s attention to detail and TLC for Manny. And we wanted to add an extra star for last week’s care!⭐️ Thank you!”
“Priscilla took very good care of Bella. She kept me constantly updated on how she was doing, was very kind to both of us, and Bella looked very happy in the photos and videos she sent me. I would definitely leave Bella in her care again whenever I need to.”
“Canela had lots of fun at Dominique’s house! I really appreciated the fast replies and Canela being taken to the park to let out some energy. Canela came home and took a long nap so I know she had lots of fun, thanks again to Dominique!”

About: I have had my own dogs as a kid and have been the go-to friend in my network for pet care while working remotely. These days I am in between jobs so I have plenty of time during the day to take your pet for walks or to the park. I recently drove my friend's sweet dog from San Diego to Philadelphia and we had quite an adventure stopping at many dog-friendly landmarks along the way! It was a blast! I typically cover pet sitting for pet parents who prefer that I stay in their homes while they are away, but I also have availability for daily or weekly drop-ins, walks, park or beach time, and other excursions. I have some experience driving dogs and cats across the country as well as extensive experience traveling to different states to care for pets for weeks or months at a time. While I live in San Diego, I've traveled to New York, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Colorado to care for several sweet dogs and cats. I seek to understand what you and your pet needs and do my best to provide a continuity of care and comfort while you are away. Once I know what your pet needs and is accustomed to, I ensure their routines are adhered to as closely as possible until you can return.

About: My wife and I have had dogs our whole lives. We recently lost both our beautiful pups to old age and still have so much love to give so we decided to make ourselves available to care for your beloved doggies while you're out of town. We both work from home and have a fenced yard for your pup to play and sunbathe in! We can’t wait to meet your furry ray of sunshine! We both work from home and are there all day. Sometimes one of us will go to the gym for an hour or run an errand but usually the other is still at home so rest assured that your pup will have company for the majority of the day. We live in a house with a fenced back yard with ample frolicking and sunbathing space and a quiet neighborhood great for walks and exploring.

About: I've been surrounded by animals for 30+ years. My experience runs deep and hands-on. I spent a year working on a farm. Fun fact: I've successfully delivered three litters of puppies — every single one survived and thrived. At home I have two cats and two large senior dogs, all fixed, up to date on their meds, and flea-free. Caring for senior pups every day means I know firsthand how to handle slower walks, medication schedules, achy joints, and the extra patience and gentleness our older companions deserve. What you can count on from me: reliability, genuine love for your animal, and someone who treats your pet like the soul they are. I'll follow your routines to the letter, keep you updated, and make sure your furry family member feels safe and happy while you're away. So whether your pet is a bouncy puppy, a dignified senior, or somewhere in between, I'm calm, confident, and capable in just about any situation. I'd be honored to care for yours. 🐾 Pet care isn't an afterthought for me — it's woven into my daily rhythm. I already care for my own animals every morning and evening, so feeding times, litter scooping, medication schedules, and check-ins are simply part of how my days are built. Adding your pet to that routine feels natural, not like an extra errand. I keep a flexible schedule that lets me be reliably present throughout the day, so I can accommodate everything from quick drop-in visits to longer sessions and consistent walking times. I'm happy to match whatever cadence your pet is used to, whether that's a strict feeding window, mid-day company, or a steady morning-and-evening routine. Most importantly, I show up when I say I will. You'll always know your pet is being cared for on schedule, every time. In my own home, your pet joins a calm, animal-friendly environment with my two cats and two gentle senior dogs — all fixed, vaccinated, on their meds, and flea-free. I keep food, medications, and anything hazardous safely out of reach, maintain clean litter and feeding areas, and can give a nervous or new pet their own quiet space to settle in. If separation is ever needed, I'm comfortable crating or sectioning off rooms so every animal stays safe and stress-free. In your home, I treat your space with the same care I'd want for my own. I follow your instructions exactly — entry, alarm codes, feeding, litter, medication, and lock-up — and I keep doors and gates secured so there's no risk of a pet slipping out. I stay alert to your pet's behavior and comfort, and I'll always reach out right away if anything seems off. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is simple: a safe, clean, loving environment where your pet feels secure and you feel completely at ease. 🐾
About: Life long dog owner. Over forty years of experience with large active breeds. From rescue to training giving fur babies an active fun day. I currently have three well behaved German Shepherds that go on long daily walks on a leash or running free at dog beaches and hikes out in the open fields in Otay lakes. I have a large kennel and a back yard with plenty of room for a comfortable stay. I’m currently retired and have plenty of time to have fun with my dogs getting in different adventures daily. We enjoy long hikes to lakes or ponds and frequently go swimming at OB dog beach and fiesta island. Now that I’m retired I would like to dedicate myself to dog training. I have a fenced yard half the yard is a kennel but the kennel stays open for full yard to roam. My pups are usually following me around the house all day so I try to keep them active with training and hikes or long walks. For smaller indoor dogs I will provide a comfortable environment indoors with their own separate kennel to sleep in at night making sure they are pampered and spoiled. My dogs are very gentle and friendly and socialized around different size dogs their whole lives. They also have their own area that they like and stay in that can be secured for added safety.
“So amazing and followed all the instructions I provided for my 8-week puppy. I was constantly sent updates as well. Definitely recommend and will be booking if I need in the future!”
About: I have plenty of experience looking after pets of all sizes and breeds. I guarantee a safe and loving home for your pet. They will love it here! I’m home most of the time and can assure your pet will have a playful and enjoyable stay in my home. Look forward to meeting your fur baby! I guarantee your pet will be walked and played with as directed and most importantly given all the attention it deserves. Look forward to connecting.
About: I have had pets for 17 years and so far I have 2 cats and 5 very friendly dogs. I know every behavior and jests at them or if they feel sick I am at home full time. The only time I go out is to go to the market and the occasional medical appointment. The rest of the time I will be caring for and raising your little loved one. My house has a secure fence, a yard to run around in. They will have fun meeting new friends. When they get tired they will sleep in a bed or blanket if they want.

About: I’ve had experience taking care of my aunts dog while she does away to travel. The dog I care for is 6 years old. However I’ve taken care of one of my dogs since he was 6 weeks old and my other since he 7 months old. My schedule is open besides regularly scheduled appointments Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9am. There are plenty of hours in the day to stop by and take care of your pup as needed. I try to make it a habit of feeding them before I start eating my food and keeping them as close as possible to their normal schedule. Some days will be different but to keep the pup at ease I’d like to keep up with their routine but also create trust with pets and treats!
“Tyler is great. His love and care for animals is profound and very respected. My two German Shepherd Dogs immediately enjoyed his company as well as his service dog. Tyler continues to do anything that will help my family's current circumstances. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi there! My name is Audrey Wall. I’m excited to use my passion and experience with animals for your pets. I grew up with dogs of all sizes and breeds, and I’ve had the best experience sitting a variety of dogs back in 2021. I had to pause my sitter duties because of my active duty status, but now that I’m retired, I’d love the opportunity to watch your pets. While my services are limited to daily walking and drop-in visits, the love and care I’ll provide are limitless! I understand what it can feel like to be worried about your pet being home alone while you’re away, so please allow me to put your mind at ease! My schedule is flexible, so I will always try to move my daily tasks to fit your needs! All I ask is for clear and frequent communication. I live in a single-family residence with a large grass backyard. I have a 90 lb, 8 year old rescue who is not friendly with other animals, so unfortunately, I cannot do in-sitter home boarding.
“Elizabeth was a rock star with my dog. She jumped in on short notice and was kind, responsible, and punctual. She took and sent photos through the app each time showing the walk and feeding after. She clearly had experience handling dogs coming in and I will gladly rely on her again in the future.”
About: Hello my name is Ivanna, I’m 33 years old. I have extensive experience caring for dogs and have loved animals since I was a little girl. Caring for dogs has always been something that brings me genuine happiness, and I truly enjoy building strong bonds with them while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have been responsible for the daily care of a Yorkie for the past 7 years, including feeding, grooming, exercise, general care, and accompanying them to veterinary and medical appointments. I also cared for a German Shepherd for 4 years, providing regular walks, feeding, cleaning, exercise, and attentive day-to-day care. I have also cared for an amazing Pug and Husky, and I quickly developed a wonderful bond with all of them. I absolutely adore dogs and take their well-being very seriously. I love taking them on walks, playing with them, giving them attention and affection, and making sure they are clean, well-fed, happy, and safe. To me, dogs are truly family, and I would treat every pet in my care with the same patience, attention, and love that I would give my own. I am currently caring for my two-year-old child and my 7 year old Yorkie, so my availability is Monday through Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. I am reliable, committed, and happy to work within these hours. I provide in-home pet care, where I care for dogs in their own homes, including patios and indoor spaces. My responsibilities include taking dogs on walks, feeding them, playing with them, providing companionship and attention, and making sure they are comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I am also comfortable providing baths when needed and administering prescribed oral medications according to the owner’s instructions. I always make sure pets receive the care, patience, and attention they need throughout my visit.
About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs my entire life, especially Pit Bulls and Bulldogs. I’m comfortable around all breeds, sizes, and personalities and have never been afraid of a dog. I have a special soft spot for Pit Bulls because I know firsthand how loving, friendly, and affectionate they can be. Growing up, I helped take care of our family dogs and learned how to be patient, responsible, and attentive to their individual needs. I’ve also helped my brother with his dog-breeding experience, which gave me additional hands-on experience caring for multiple dogs and understanding different temperaments. I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family and make sure they receive plenty of attention, patience, exercise, and love while in my care. I currently work part-time seasonally, so my schedule is flexible and I have plenty of free time during the week to provide attentive care. I’m able to dedicate time to walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your dog plenty of attention while they’re in my care. I always make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’ll provide fresh water, meals according to their routine, walks and playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll follow the owner’s instructions and make sure their pet is happy, secure, and never left without proper care.
About: I grew up in a family that always had multiple dogs, and with a veterinarian dad, I learned early how to care for pets with patience, respect, and attention to their needs. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages and sizes from my own, plus pets belonging to friends and family. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping dogs on their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed. It’s a priority for me to let every dog take their time, feel comfortable, and build trust at their own pace. I’m gentle, reliable, and treat every dog like family and ’ll care for your dog with the same attention I give my own. I currently work a part-time job in the mornings, so I’m available for pet care most afternoons and full days on certain weekdays. • Thursday - Sunday : available after 1pm • Monday - Wednesday : fully available all day I’m flexible with walk times, check-ins, and longer visits, and I’m happy to discuss a schedule that fits your dog’s routine!! I know how important trust is, especially with anxious dogs, so I always give pets space and let them warm up at their own pace. I follow routines closely whether that’s with meds, feeding, walks and safety is always my top priority in and outside the home.
About: I've used too own two pitbulls when I was younger and from the moment we got them my family taught how important it was to make sure they have all the love and care that was needed. As I hot older I discovered It was part of my nature to want to take care of something so I spent a lot of time dog sitting for family friends I've taken care of chihuahuas ,golden retrievers and terriers . Normally I try to make time at any moment of the day as long as I have the opportunities to take care of someone's pet I understand that a lot of people want to but can't make the time for their babies because of their busy work schedule. I've never had to deal with an emergency while pet sitting but for the basics I mostly make sure your bestfriend has regular acces to food and water and make sure to take them on their regular walks at owners request that can vary from once to twice a day normally more than that depending on how often you bestfriend want to use the restroom.
About: I have owned dogs the majority of my life from big to small. I have had 2 cats in my life for the past 9 years as well. I am very knowledgeable in training and taking care of animals as its a big passion of mine to connect with animals, a long term goal is to become a Marine Biologist! I enjoy spending time with animals and learning more about them. I work part time at Chuze Fitness for about 3-4 days a week. I go to the gym about 3-4 times a week for 2 hours for each session. I enjoy exploring foods a lot and going to the movies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I feed my dogs and cats twice a day. I usually take my dogs out on an hour walk a day when it’s not too hot for them. I try and take my dogs to the dog park 2-3 times a month for some friendly exposure. My cats are indoor cats so they just play around with their cat tree and sleep as they don’t enjoy being outside.
About: Growing up, I was surrounded by lots of dogs—big and small. I am comfortable assessing how a dog will react based on their personalities and temperaments. I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of availability during the work week! As an animal lover, this job feels like the perfect fit. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs (2 dashchunds and a golden retriever) at home to keep your puppy company. I also have crates if needed.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my combination of reliability, experience, and genuine love for animals—paired with a calm, patient approach that pets respond to. I don’t just watch pets; I build trust with them. Whether it's helping a nervous pup feel safe, administering medications to a senior dog, or maintaining consistent routines for multi-pet households, I treat each animal as if they were my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine—it’s something I truly enjoy and make time for. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime, feeding schedules, or evening check-ins, I prioritize consistency and reliability for every pet I care for. I build my schedule around the needs of each animal, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or at a client’s, my priority is to create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that mirrors their routine and reduces stress. In My Home: I provide a calm, pet-friendly space where animals can feel at ease. I follow their feeding, walking, and sleeping routines closely, offer supervised playtime, and ensure they’re never left alone for long periods. I also separate pets when needed for safety and comfort, and I keep a clean, secure environment with pet-proofed areas. In the Client’s Home: I treat the space with respect and care while maintaining the pet’s familiar environment. I stick to their established schedule, including meals, walks, medication, and playtime. I also send regular updates, photos, and notes so pet parents feel connected and confident while they’re away. No matter the setting, I prioritize safety, communication, and individualized care so each pet feels loved and well cared for.

About: I've been caring for my own animals as soon as I was big and responsible enough too. I'd say 15-20+yrs. I love meeting new furry friends cause they always remind me about my good soul or spirit. It makes me happy. Cats and dogs gravitate twords all the time. I'd say I do well with teaching how to walk on a leash. I currently take care of my dog and I have 4hens and 1rooster. So it fits right in very well. I'm not working as we speak but I'm looking. I have a rather large front and back yard that raps all the way around the house. I have a small dog her name is Mary Jane. I have two dog kennels if u perfered to keep your dog in a crate.
About: I've been surrounded by animals for 30+ years. My experience runs deep and hands-on. I spent a year working on a farm. Fun fact: I've successfully delivered three litters of puppies — every single one survived and thrived. At home I have two cats and two large senior dogs, all fixed, up to date on their meds, and flea-free. Caring for senior pups every day means I know firsthand how to handle slower walks, medication schedules, achy joints, and the extra patience and gentleness our older companions deserve. What you can count on from me: reliability, genuine love for your animal, and someone who treats your pet like the soul they are. I'll follow your routines to the letter, keep you updated, and make sure your furry family member feels safe and happy while you're away. So whether your pet is a bouncy puppy, a dignified senior, or somewhere in between, I'm calm, confident, and capable in just about any situation. I'd be honored to care for yours. 🐾 Pet care isn't an afterthought for me — it's woven into my daily rhythm. I already care for my own animals every morning and evening, so feeding times, litter scooping, medication schedules, and check-ins are simply part of how my days are built. Adding your pet to that routine feels natural, not like an extra errand. I keep a flexible schedule that lets me be reliably present throughout the day, so I can accommodate everything from quick drop-in visits to longer sessions and consistent walking times. I'm happy to match whatever cadence your pet is used to, whether that's a strict feeding window, mid-day company, or a steady morning-and-evening routine. Most importantly, I show up when I say I will. You'll always know your pet is being cared for on schedule, every time. In my own home, your pet joins a calm, animal-friendly environment with my two cats and two gentle senior dogs — all fixed, vaccinated, on their meds, and flea-free. I keep food, medications, and anything hazardous safely out of reach, maintain clean litter and feeding areas, and can give a nervous or new pet their own quiet space to settle in. If separation is ever needed, I'm comfortable crating or sectioning off rooms so every animal stays safe and stress-free. In your home, I treat your space with the same care I'd want for my own. I follow your instructions exactly — entry, alarm codes, feeding, litter, medication, and lock-up — and I keep doors and gates secured so there's no risk of a pet slipping out. I stay alert to your pet's behavior and comfort, and I'll always reach out right away if anything seems off. Whether at my place or yours, my goal is simple: a safe, clean, loving environment where your pet feels secure and you feel completely at ease. 🐾
About: Hello there! I understand you may need someone to look over your fur-baby?! Well, here’s why I’d be a perfect fit! I have been taking care/looking over dogs for 10+ years! I have had two cocker spaniels, a golden retriever/chowchow mix, a cattle dog/Rottweiler mix, as well as a Belgium Malinois. I have also dog-sat for numerous friends and family throughout the years. Anything and everything from letting them go out for a potty break, getting them some grubs, getting some play time, going for a stroll, or simply having human interaction while their favorite human is out. I will always make sure they have the best possible care as if they were my fur-baby. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to send me a message! Hope to meet your pup soon! I am currently working part time but am extremely flexible with my schedule. If things need to be moved around feel free to send me a detailed message. I’m not able to promise that things can always be switched around, but I will try my best to accommodate. I will always make sure your pet is being watched whether inside or out so you can rest assured they will be in the safest hands possible.
About: Life long dog owner. Over forty years of experience with large active breeds. From rescue to training giving fur babies an active fun day. I currently have three well behaved German Shepherds that go on long daily walks on a leash or running free at dog beaches and hikes out in the open fields in Otay lakes. I have a large kennel and a back yard with plenty of room for a comfortable stay. I’m currently retired and have plenty of time to have fun with my dogs getting in different adventures daily. We enjoy long hikes to lakes or ponds and frequently go swimming at OB dog beach and fiesta island. Now that I’m retired I would like to dedicate myself to dog training. I have a fenced yard half the yard is a kennel but the kennel stays open for full yard to roam. My pups are usually following me around the house all day so I try to keep them active with training and hikes or long walks. For smaller indoor dogs I will provide a comfortable environment indoors with their own separate kennel to sleep in at night making sure they are pampered and spoiled. My dogs are very gentle and friendly and socialized around different size dogs their whole lives. They also have their own area that they like and stay in that can be secured for added safety.
About: Hi! My name is Adriana! I'm a dog person but honestly I'm all about frogs and fishes! Had dogs growing up, and I would love to hang out with yours! I'm currently a college art student and also working for parks and rec so I know most of the local parks and best dogs parks around the city! I will make sure they have fun while staying safe, make sure they get they steps in and of course a treat of their favorite snacks!
About: I’ve grown up with animals my entire life. From cats to dogs and even a goat, I’ve experienced it all. My family and I regularly house puppies and kittens from Tijuana, Mexico in our home until we are able to find them their forever home here in the states, so it is safe to say that I am well equipped for the needs of your furry friend(s). As someone who drives to the beach for a sunset walk on a daily basis I’d love to be able to bring your friend(s) along for the ride ☺️ I currently am working Monday - Wednesday full time but am open every other day of the week as I am still in school. That being said, I would be completely open to care for your pet(s) and give them the same attention they’d receive at home Thursday- Sunday! I have ample space for your pet(s) with a large backyard that includes grass and a large fence to ensure that they are safe. I’ve always made it a habit to regularly check on pets’ food / water and in a cats case, their litter box. If your cat needs a relaxing environment with endless amounts of pets I can do that. If your dog / puppy needs a long walk or even a run, I can do that. I understand that leaving your pets with a stranger can be nerve racking but rest assured that they’re in good hands 🙌

“Oh my goodness, Miss Stacy is truly a lifesaver! Words cannot express how wonderful and accommodating she is. I am hyper vigilant about my pup, and Stacy answered every question going above and beyond what anyone should have to. We were having medical procedures and had some complications. Stacy kept Romeo extra time and was willing to help out however she could. Not only did she take care of us, but Romeo is a border Collie - a breed that is high energy and high anxiety. He was not only well cared for, but flourished. I would now consider Stacy and her family (two and four legged variety) friends. That's the highest praise in my book.”
“Kristen was once again so good with our pup! She was able to accommodate us while we went out of town last minute no problem which was a huge life saver!! we knew our pup was in good hands! thank you Kristen!!”
“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!”
“Tyler is great! We highly recommend him. He is so good with our dog who is a bit anxious but Tyler has been so patient. Brady now gets so excited when we take him to Tyler or when Tyler picks him up. We feel so confident going out of town for a few days. We’ve tried other sitters but Tyler is the best!”
“Desteny took amazing care of King when I had to go out of town. She sent photos of him every day, and he looked calm and happy in every single one. She was accommodating of his needs, and was willing to give him the same routine and structure that he has at home. I appreciate her willingness to provide boarding for King despite my request being short notice. Will definitely board with her next time!”
“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.”
“Absolutely pleased with Kimberly and her watching my boys. She made me feel at ease that they were in good hands and they were. She kept, me informed and provided regular updates and pictures of Samsom and Thor.. Highly recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pets.”
“Diana took care of our girl Maya very well and she sent daily updates with pictures. Maya seemed very happy in her place as seen in the pictures. We would surely go back there and we highly recommend Diana to be a sitter.”
About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.
“Lori was wonderful from first contact and booking to pick up. We needed a local sitter while on vacation and she was thoughtful enough to offer extra time which was appreciated. At drop off we noted a secure fenced area which was plenty large. It was evident she had read each of the profiles and knew about each pet. The indoor area had large pens. She sent pictures that showed all pets comfortable and relaxed. And the Great Dane with big smile. We wish we could find someone like her in our state”
“Jesus and his wife are fantastic! They were super accommodating and our dog loved hanging out with their family for the weekend. I was also super shocked to see her not pulling when they went on a walk in one of the videos they shared. Jesus is truly a dog whisperer! We found our future home away from home for our pup and we would not hesitate to recommend them!”
“Dominique really saved my week by agreeing to a last minute booking when I unexpectedly had to rearrange my travel plans and find a place to board my dog the same day. She is friendly and great with dogs. I was worried about how my dog would get along with hers, but Dominique is an amazing pack leader and managed everything without incident. I appreciated the daily photos and updates with details of how my dog spent her day, how she was eating, and sleeping. I would definitely recommend Dominique as a dog sitter, and if I ever need a sitter in the future I will definitely reach out to her again! Thank you Dominique!”
“Nancy made me feel so comfortable the minute I dropped off my fur baby. She is amazing and kept me updated with photos and videos. I’ll definitely bring my Callie back again to her ?”
“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!”
