We’ve been welcoming more dogs into our home during the day. Thus, we’re creating a profile to keep up this positive momentum. We have a 20 foot partially shaded patio. As well as the inside of our home available for dogs to plan. Right now we’re only doing daytime appointments and we are careful to select dogs with the right temperament. We look forward to meeting you and your pup soon! We generally accept the dogs after our toddler goes to daycare. Which is around 9 AM. We then watch the dogs until around 5 PM. We currently do not offer a weekend or late nights, but may do so in the future, depending on how business goes. Currently my wife has a relaxed online job and is with the dogs all day. I myself often work from home and play with the dogs from 9 AM to 5 PM. We have plenty of toys and dogs can easily access inside and outside of the house to play outside when they want. We have fans and air-conditioning to keep them cool in the hot summer days.
“As a dog owner and a parent, you know when your baby is in good hands and that’s exactly how I felt leaving Luna with Jacqueline. She kept us updated throughout the day with pictures and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I truly felt at ease knowing Luna was being cared for and loved. I’m so thankful we found Jacqueline. She was the perfect sitter for Luna, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again. Highly recommend!”

There are many wonderful ways to connect with pets. I offer walks, play time, and quiet time as needed. Treats, scratches, snuggles and positive reinforcement galore.
“Savannah is wonderful! She’s responsive, punctual and always shows up when scheduled. She sends great updates and pictures of their walks and modifies the walk to how our pup is feeling, whether he’d rather sniff around or get a good walk in. Really appreciate her care for him and professionalism!”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and absolutely love them (sometimes more than people haha). Breeders have trusted me to nurse their dogs and puppies back to health, and I have experience caring for both young puppies and senior dogs with special needs. Since my latest beloved dogs, Jacques and Jinger, passed on, I have found so much joy in welcoming other wonderful animals into our lives. We are a young couple living in the heart of Oceanside, CA, within a very pet friendly community. A dog beach and walkable city area are nearby in addition to trails and parks, and we enjoy exploring with our visiting pals. As a professional photographer, I also often enjoy taking and sharing free, high quality photos of our furry friends, in addition to the usual updates with phone snaps that I send during our time together. It is our general rule to only care for one family at a time, so your pet will have the exclusive attention and focus while in my care, ensuring they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for. Every dog is not just a dog but a member of the family. I understand every animal has their own personality and individual needs, and I would love to take care of, play, walk, and love on yours and hope to become their friend. I work mostly from home and love caring for dog friends on my available days. I only host pets from one family at a time to make sure each visitor receives the best care and attention during their stay with us. For walks or drop-in visits my schedule is quite flexible. If a pup is with me for the day we will likely do a good amount of walking and play, I'll ensure they are provided water and any other details for their care is followed, and we'll simply have a fabulous day together :) We live in a very dog-friendly community with walking trails, parks, the ocean, and a dog beach nearby that we love exploring with our visiting pals, (with owner permission of course). Also, an emergency pet hospital is just 5 minutes away if ever needed, though thankfully we have never had to use it.
About: I'm from Oregon originally and I grew up with my own dog and would look after all my friends and neighbors dogs growing up. Now that I'm in California, I miss having a dog that I can take care of, so I would love the opportunity to help you with yours! I'm very laid-back and I understand that things come up last minute, so cancellations or last minute requests are always more than welcome. I can't wait to meet you and your wonderful pets! I work from home full-time and would love some company while I work, or a welcome break for a walk and/or play time with your pet! I love to show my pets attention, let them rest, and make sure that they are safe at all times. I have my own set of guidelines that I follow, but I’m always willing to learn more and implement whatever you need for your pet.
“We had a really great experience with Justin. The photos he sent were highly appreciated and I could tell they had a great walk together. Super super thankful that I’ve found someone I could trust when I have to be gone for long periods of time.”

It wasn’t easy leaving our boy behind for the first time, but knowing Ollie was in such capable and loving hands made all the difference. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy, responsible pet care. I will definitely be using Seans services in the future!”
“I recently boarded my dog Maxx with Sarah and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we arrived, she was warm, professional, and clearly passionate about animals. She took the time to get to know my dog’s routine, preferences. I loved that she provided regular updates and photos, so I could see how much fun Maxx was having during playtime. When I picked him up, he looked happy, and clearly well cared for. I would use her again !”
“Thank you for saying yes last minute! I appreciate the pictures, prompt responses and flexibility in pickup and drop off. Thank you for giving Mr Clingy lots of Easter love and attention. Hope you’ll have Oscar back in your home again :)”
About: Hi! My name is Megan, and I recently moved to the San Diego area from New Hampshire. Before moving here, I spent several years in Hawaii, where I earned both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Finance. I come from a big family and have always been surrounded by animals, caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and providing them with the attention, exercise, and care they need while their owners are away. I work remotely on East Coast hours (5 AM–2 PM), which gives me great flexibility throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. Because I work from home, I can provide plenty of supervision and attention to help pets feel comfortable and cared for. I'm dependable, responsible, and caring, and I understand how important it is to feel confident that your pet is in good hands. Whether you need drop-in visits, walks, pet sitting, or house sitting, I'd love the opportunity to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you're away. I work full-time remotely Monday through Friday on East Coast hours (5 AM–2 PM PST), which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, potty breaks, feeding schedules, playtime, and companionship. I am available for house sitting and pet sitting during the week and on weekends, provided there is reliable WiFi access for my work computer. Because I work from home, I can provide a high level of supervision and ensure your pets receive plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m happy to schedule a meet-and-greet or FaceTime call before booking to answer any questions and discuss your pet’s specific routine and needs. I do not have any pets or children of my own at home, so your pet will get my full attention in a safe, welcoming environment. I’m excited to meet your pet and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away!
“David was great with our large and playful doodle. He was very communicative sending lots of updates on how our pup was doing. You can tell that he loves being around dogs and I would recommend him to anyone!”
“Alexandra was great and easy to communicate with! She took in Louie during a busy holiday season and was accommodating to stay with him during new years since he doesn’t do well with fireworks. Received updates everyday. Would recommend!”
“Savannah and her family were so gentle and accommodating of my pup with separation anxiety on his long-term stay. He was a real handful but they took great care of him and treated him like he was part of the family. I can't imagine if he had stayed with anyone else.”
“Cooper had so much fun with Erica and Felipe! We will definitely use them again. We had daily updates with pictures and Cooper was having a blast the entire time we were gone.”
“Zoey had her first big sleepover with Lynn and Mr. Biggs, 1 week long! My husband and I didn’t worry about a thing, other than that maybe Zoey wouldn’t want to come home since she was having so much fun!”
