“DO NOT HESITATE TO BOOK! This is Terry and I’s 2nd time working with Janetta and I literally have no complaints. My favorite part of working with Janetta is the fact she cares for my son as if he was hers. Her communication….chefs kiss! She is very punctual and respectful of my home as well. She truly goes above and beyond of the tasks asked of her, and we couldn't be more grateful to have the ability to book with a sitter like her!”

About: I’ve had a fair share of pets in my past. I once had a pug for 2 weeks and with that I taught him how to sit. I enjoy exercising so if your dog has a lot of energy I will gladly take them to the park or if you dog just wants to walk I can do that too. If they want to relax I can do that too:) ps. I’m a student so I might be in class sometimes I can work around my schedule, I’m very flexible about that. As long as we communicate everything can work. Sometimes I go to San Diego so sometimes I won’t be in Riverside. I have 2 roommates (3bed 3bath) so we each have our own room and bathroom, they like pets and I live by a park and have a balcony just in case the pet wants to sun bathe
“Monica is so good with my pups! They really love her! She is super respectful, responsible and has good attention to detail. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs, you won’t regret it! I trust her to care for my pups the way I do!”

“Thank you Ana for taking care of my boys during the busy holiday weekend. I appreciate that you were able to step up and cover an extra day when my flight was canceled as part of the Southwest meltdown.”
“Thank you Joanne! We appreciate all your help on such short notice. She was amazing and the pups were happy. Attention to detail and communication were amazing. Will definitely be booking again”

“Anahi is a fantastic dog sitter! She always checks in at each visit with her ETA, an overview of the visit about walks/feeding etc, and sends cute pictures! She is flexible and great at communication and giving your pet love and care 😊 Thank you so much again!”

About: I take exceptional care of pets as if they were my own. I show all animals love and respect, making sure to give each one time an attention. I work remote so I have plenty of availability to share with the animals. I am responsible and enjoy being kind to all living creatures. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space to safely accommodate animals. I take great care in looking over all animals that I am responsible for.
About: Hello! I am a Zoology student currently working towards my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) degree, and a Military Conservation Agent Veteran. My background is far from the average sitter. With years of experience protecting and caring for wildlife, I possess the professional skills to handle everything from domestic pets to exotic animals. I have worked specifically at a wolfdog kennel and with a snake breeder, giving me unique expertise in handling complex animals. My Experience & Services: * 📸 Unlimited Photo/Video Updates: Receive unlimited daily photo and video updates on your dog's "eating, playing, walking, and sleeping" routines, or anytime you miss your dog. Stay connected and ease your mind instantly. * 🦴 Specialized Nutritional Care: I am fully capable of handling specialized diets, including Raw/BARF, Home-Cooked Meals, or any specific prescription/therapeutic diets. * 🐾 Expert Handling & Training: * I own a well-trained wolfdog and have professional experience with high-drive and large breeds. I possess strong handling and communication skills to manage dogs of all temperaments safely. * Regarding handling, I primarily utilize a reward-based balanced training approach. I have professional-level experience with tools like prong and e-collars, but I am also comfortable using TWC and pure positive reinforcement for handling purposes. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and will strictly follow your established protocols. * 💉 Medical Care Support: As a pre-vet student, I am qualified to provide basic medical treatment, triage, and medication administration for sick or recovering animals. * 🦎 Exotics Welcome: Extensive experience with birds, reptiles, and small mammals. * 🎓 Behavioral & Obedience Training: I offer behavioral training services to help your dog learn obedience and proper manners. Whether you have a reactive large breed, a delicate reptile, or a puppy needing structure, I bring a disciplined, knowledgeable, and compassionate approach to their care. Does this fully English version meet your needs, or would you like to emphasize any specific points further? As full time student I currently have 24/7 available during the break, and will have very flexible schedules during semester as veteran student only taking 12 units. I have professional experience handling high-drive even dangerous animals, including wolfdogs and wildlife. I know how to manage strong breeds safely and calmly. I respect your home and property. I use professional handling techniques to ensure safety during walks, and I am fully capable of providing basic medical care and behavioral support if any issues arise during my stay."
About: I like to go to parks and run my dogs and play with them for at least 30mins a day giving them love and sure some discipline as well. I’m currently a dog mom and I like to have more play dates and have fun with my fur babies training them is a must for small treats and proper exercise is a plus I usually go into closed in dog parks with gates and one side for big and one side for small dogs giving them the protection they need
“Paige was great! We came to San Diego with our pups on a trip and wanted to spend extra time away from our airbnb. She gave them some company and let them out. She sent me pictures while she was there and made us feel comfortable being away from our babies longer. Thank you!!”

About: I sincerely love taking care of pets and hope you can trust me with your babies! I will make sure to follow all necessary instructions and show them a lot of love. Pets are such a treasure to have and it would be an honor to take care of your little ones - hope I can be of help to you soon! My schedule is very flexible so I have no problem taking many breaks outside and providing enough attention to your pet. There’s a park nearby and plenty of space inside. I provide a good amount of supervision for your pet and make sure they have enough attention and play with them often. If they’d like to chill and cuddle instead, that’s no biggie!
About: Currently working from home full time and being able to spend more time with the little ones! Full time dog/cat dad with lots of free time for walks. There is a huge grass park a block away where we will go often! Our entire property is 2,000+ sq ft with a fenced yard, AC equipped, and have iced water on deck for the pups. Aiko (my dog) loves to play with other dogs and we both love meeting new people/doggos as well. Let’s do a meet and greet! I currently work full time from home. I do walk my dog 4-5 times per day as a stress reliever, a win win for her and I lol. Safety and communication is always priority as I do see pets as family members and should be treated as such in any situation. Would love a task list and directions!
About: I've been around animals my entire life, at a young age my mother and I would come home with rescues, being a die hard animal lover is in my blood. I have three dogs of my own and one of my life goals is to retire somewhere with lots of land where I can continue to foster and rescue dogs. I sometimes foster dogs for various local rescues so my house can be a zoo at times but that's just the way I love it. I love spoiling animals with lots of love and belly rubs and my dogs are super playful and would love to have new friends. I don’t work and my husband works remote so we are always home and available. I'm available for day and overnight boarding anytime during the week and weekends most weeks unless I have prior plans. I have a nice spacious yard that is fenced and playful dogs to help welcome your fur baby into our home. I love spoiling my dogs with love, attention and cuddles and I would treat any other dog the same way that I would treat mine. I spent a few years as a pre vet student, wanting to spend my life around animals has always been something I wanted.
About: My whole life I’ve been surrounded by dogs and caring for them has always been second nature. I currently have a playful and well-socialized 1-year-old pup who is spayed and fully up to date on her core vaccinations. She gets along great with other dogs and will be with me during full-day or overnight stays in San Diego. Because of this, I only accept bookings with dogs who are friendly and comfortable with other dogs. I’m happy to either socialize our pets or keep them separated as needed for safety and comfort. Your pet will always get my full attention and loving care. I welcome dogs of all sizes and personalities! My services include home visits, walks, daycare, and overnight stays. - If booking in San Diego: I work as an ER nurse, which limits my availability. On days I’m open for bookings, my only focus is your pet! Please note that for full-day or overnight stays, my dog will be with me—so I only accept dogs who do well with other dogs. - If booking outside of San Diego: My schedule is more flexible, with a mix of full days at home and short periods (about 4 hours at a time) when I’m away for clinic. I am currently working as needed so I have plenty of time to play with your pup! This keeps me available to care for your pet one the dates and times that work best for you. I pride myself on keeping a safe and active environment when caring for dogs. I can follow all crating and walking rules. I am confident in my abilities to safely use various collars and harnesses.
“Emily is amazing!! She went out of her way before my trip to stop by and familiarize herself with feeding instructions and to also try to get my cats used to her. During my trip she kept me updated with their feedings and litter box usage and also sent pictures for each visit. She really went out of her way the whole time to make sure my cats were well taken care and and that I was comfortable leaving them in her hands. She is on time, professional, and a kind and caring person. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”
