Pet Sitting Valley Center

About: I have had cats and dogs my entire life. I have taken care of over 30 foster cats and had 6 dogs. While much of my experience is with cats, I have taken care of dogs from Yorkies to Akitas. I work seasonally in the winter, so my schedule is very open until November 1st. I can come by at the owner's preferred times and stay as needed. When I care for pets, I do my best not to disrupt their routine so that their schedule is at least familiar. I try to get as much info from the owners beforehand about play preferences, medication schedules if needed, what the average day looks like for their pet, or any boundaries so I can keep their fur babie's lives as uninterrupted as possible.

About: Hi! I’m your pet’s new favorite human 😉 and a reliable animal lover who loves keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable. I grew up with cats and dogs and have become the go-to sitter for friends and family when they travel. I’m happy to care for pets based on their personalities—whether that’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like part of my own pack (or clowder 🐾). I work from home so I have a flexible schedule and open availability, including weekends and holidays, and I’m an early bird, so morning feedings, walks, and check-ins are no problem. I’m happy to adapt to your pet’s routine and provide consistent attention, care, and companionship to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, and I follow their routine closely to create a calm, loving environment. I’m also tidy and respectful of your home, keeping things clean and organized while caring for your furry friend. 🐾

About: I work in animal care at a local shelter, where I support dogs with all kinds of needs—medical, behavioral, or just in need of some extra love. I’ve also fostered dogs for over 7 years, including seniors, puppies, and those recovering from surgery or trauma. That experience taught me how to be patient, flexible, and attuned to each dog’s unique personality and pace. I always try to meet animals where they are, with care and respect. I work full-time in animal care five days a week, with Thursdays and Fridays off. My shifts rotate biweekly between early mornings and evenings, so I’m available for pet care on my days off and can often accommodate early mornings, evenings, or overnight care depending on the week. I live in a calm, pet-friendly apartment with a large park just across the street—great for walks and outdoor time. I create a safe, low-stress environment by following each pet’s routine closely and respecting their boundaries. With my shelter background, I’m comfortable handling pets with different temperaments and needs, and I always prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication with both pets and their people.

“Kevin was fantastic! He always stopped by right on schedule and took great care of our dog. We really appreciated the updates and photos—it gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our dog was happy, and well cared for. We’d absolutely book with Kevin again.”

Vicky V.

“He was great! Very flexible and easy going.”

About: I am an all around animal lover. I grew up in Hawaii with a connection with all animals and have a deep connection and respect for wildlife and nature. I have lived in Colorado, Tennessee, and now California. I have two large breed rescues of my own and have lots of experience with all size dogs, cats, birds, and exotic pets. I am extremely comfortable with medication administration, reactivity, heavy pullers, training reinforcements, situational awareness, animal body language, and animal welfare. I am available for drop in visits, walks, overnight stays, and any animal needs. I am currently a full time student and dog dad with time in between my dogs routine to help other fur babies through their day. I am a responsible and trustworthy animal friend who understands the importance of following through with individualized care to ensure furry friends and their owners are protected and supported in their day to day.

“Simply the BEST!!! Always takes care of my babies perfectly!! Sends the best photos too!!”

About: I've had animals ranging from rabbits, dogs & cats since I was young (I currently have 2 rabbits and 2 older dogs at home). I have patience for animals and having used Rover before, I know what a good sitter/walker is and I am to go beyond my own expectations of my previous sitters. I have a very free schedule and am aiming to fill it up with cute animals to walk and play with. Big time animal lover and honestly, available to work around your needs before sorting through my day to day schedule. I only operate with love and patience for my own animals so you can rest assured I will treat your pets with the same. I am very much an animal person, hence my at home setup of 2 rabbits and 2 older dogs.

About: I’ve cared for my own dogs my entire life and am comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and daily routines. I’m patient, attentive, and always make sure pets feel safe and cared for. I have a flexible schedule and can make time for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and provide care when needed. I will always follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine. I’ll make sure doors and gates are secure, keep a close eye on your pet, and treat your home and dog with care and respect.

About: I rescued my dog Pugsly 2 years ago and have been hooked ever since. He’s my first pup and words cannot describe how much I love the little guy! Hopefully after my time in the military is up I can start up a small in home foster care for dogs seeking adoption. Pugsly was a little sick for the first 2 months of his life but with our Vet team at Banfield he pulled through! Looking back, it was so moving to see him so strong. He was always so happy no mater the circumstance. Now we run about 3-5 miles regularly and he’s as healthy as can be. He knows a variety of tricks/commands and is CONSTANTLY being spoiled. You’d think a toddler lives here with the amount of toys scattered throughout my house.

About: Hello! I am a Registered Veterinary Technician with decades of experience caring for animals of all kinds. I have recently stepped away from full-time veterinary work to pursue my passion for behavior as I study to become a professional dog trainer. Caring for pets of all kinds has always been my passion, and I treat every dog as if they were my own! Whether your pet is young, senior, or has special needs, I can be counted on to provide safe, attentive, and loving care. My goal is to help your pets feel happy, comfortable, and loved when they are in my care. My experience and training offer owners piece of mind, while updates and photos keep you up to date on your pet's care. I can't wait to meet you and your best friend(s)! -Juliette I am currently working part time "per diem" but have scheduled workdays on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am available Saturday - Tuesday all day. If you need a visit on Wed, Thursday, or Friday, please reach out and I can let you know what I can offer! Every walk or stop-by is tailored to your individual pet's needs, energy level, and routine. Your pet will enjoy safe, loving, and engaged visit full of attention, positive reinforcement, and time to sniff and explore (for pets where this is applicable). After each visit (or at the end of the day for multiple visits in a day) you will receive a summary of the visit with an update of the fun we had!

About: I grew up in the small town of Valley Center and have been around animals all of my life. From dogs and cats to horses and sheep, I have worked with them all. I love animals of all sizes and would love to show care and love for your animal when you need it. I have raised puppies and had senior dogs. Worked with all types of livestock. I was in FFA in high school and raised cattle and sheep and was an officer. I work a job 5 days a week but will work around my main job. I start that job early at 5 am, so I'm open to early afternoons and evenings. Can do very early if needed, and closer to on my way to work. I will treat everyone's home like my own or like my best friends or sisters home. every pet will be treated as my own and get to know them so we both can be safe and happy.

About: I have over 15 years of experience walking and pet sitting, and I truly love what I do. Whether it’s a quick walk or a longer stay, I make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business and care for multiple regular weekly clients, along with one-time and occasional visits. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. Over the years, I’ve raised 9 dogs of my own, so dogs have always been a big part of my life. Your pup will be safe, loved, and well cared for with me. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life. I run my own dog walking and pet sitting business, so my schedule is built around the pets I care for. My weekdays usually include regular walks, drop-ins, and check-ins, and I make sure to leave space in my day so I’m never rushed. I plan my week around my clients so each dog gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. This isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s what I do — so I’m able to be reliable, present, and fully focused on the pets in my care. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks or potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and any special instructions. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and send updates and photos so you know how they’re doing.
