Pet Sitting Waterfront

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and am comfortable around any size! I love taking my family dogs on walks and hikes and can adjust to energy levels between different ages and breeds :) While I work full-time, I have very flexible morning and lunch-time hours! Mondays: 7:00am-9:30am, 12:30-2:00pm, and again from 5:30-7:30pm Tuesdays: 7:00-8:30am, 11:30-2:00pm, and again from 6:15-7:30pm Wednesdays: 7:00-1:00pm, and again from 6:30-7:30pm Saturdays: 7:00am-7:00pm Sundays: 9:00am-7:00pm Free for housesitting, walks, and hikes on the weekends all day :) I am clean and respectful of other people’s space, and want to help your dog feel comfortable in their home. I am very communicative and can adjust to all kinds of care routines!

About: I have owned two large dogs before a German Shepard, and a lab Shepard mix . I also understand that some dogs are energetic and need more exercise so I am patient with those doggos too! I am also attentive to their health and body language and I will communicate with you whether I notice anything concerning. I work full time from 8-5pm Mon-Friday. I am available early mornings before 7am or after 5pm on the weekdays and any time on the weekends. I cannot board dogs or cats however I am more than happy to watch them in their home! I will also be attentive to specific care instructions for your pets.

“Ashley was so easy to work with and plan for our quick mid-day visit! Bailey seemed to trust her immediately at our meet and greet and im sure appreciated the visit on a long day at home alone! I arrived hours later to everything in its place and bailey as happy as ever. Would love to have Ashley stop by again in the future!”

About: Taking care of both dogs and cats is something that I have loved doing since I was a young teen. I have also volunteered abroad working at animal shelters in other countries. I feel really passionate about giving them the proper love and care they deserve! I am currently working 8-4pm on weekdays but anytime after that I am free to care for your pets! I will also be free on the weekends! I wouldn’t be able to take care of your pets in my residence, but I would absolutely love to watch over them at yours while you are away!

About: Hi, I’m Lana (short for Svetlana). I’ve always had a deep love for animals and genuinely enjoy spending time with both dogs and cats. While I don’t have a dog of my own, I’ve spent years caring for friends’ and neighbors’ pets, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of personalities, including senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I understand every pet is different and adjust my care to fit their needs—whether that means a slower, gentler pace for senior dogs, active playtime for puppies, or simply keeping them comfortable and relaxed. I’ve also had the unique experience of walking dogs down the aisle at weddings and caring for them throughout the event, so couples can fully enjoy their special day. I stay calm, reliable, and confident in both everyday care and high-energy, special moments. It’s important to me that every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pup and give them the attention they deserve. I work full-time during the week with two days from home, but on the weekends, my schedule is completely open and I can ensure potty breaks every 1-2 hours. Just let me know what your dog’s needs are :) We sure can work it out. I will always make sure to never leave your dog unattended. Your dog deserves attention and safety is very important to all of us. I will care for your dog as if it’s my own.

“Cheryl is a terrific cat sitter. My cats warmed up to her immediately and she spent time playing with them and my finicky male even let her brush him and he loved it. She also left calming music in for them and it was so good to come home to relaxed kitties.”

About: I’ve spent over 30 years caring for dogs and other animals, both personally and professionally. My approach is intuitive, compassionate, and grounded in a lifetime of hands-on experience. I run a local Montecito dog walking business, working with dogs of all breeds and specializing in big, athletic, and high-energy dogs. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. As a Montecito-based business owner and endurance athlete, I spend much of my time on the trails and beaches — often with a dog by my side. My lifelong love of animals, combined with my endurance background, makes me especially well-suited for larger or high-energy breeds. I genuinely love bonding with dogs and take pride in being a calm, confident presence — a natural pack leader they can trust. I care for the dogs I walk as if they were my own — with plenty of love, attention, and respect for their individual needs. I’m known for giving dogs the exercise they truly crave, whether that’s an energizing trail walk, a beach romp, or a steady neighborhood outing. I stay fully present and engaged, making sure each walk is safe, stimulating, and tailored to the dog’s energy level and personality.

“Jessica was great, warm energy and my dog Mango loves her. She took to her right away. Will def book with Jessica again when I’m in a pinch.”

About: I absolutely love animals and especially dogs. I love walking them, taking them on fun outdoor adventures and also checking in on them while you are out and about. I may not currently have a pet of my own but I promise I will love yours as if they were my own. My schedule is very open and I make my own hours with the part-time work that I do. Plenty of time to visit with and walk your fur-baby! I am happy to walk your dog in your neighborhoods. Also, I can come and visit with them at your home as much as needed.

“Excellent care! Would highly recommend Damian. We have a boxer with degenerative myopathy who struggles with her back end. He did drop in visits helping her with potty breaks and keeping her company. She got comfortable with him pretty quick and he did a wonderful job. He even helped out when our stay at home person had a medical emergency. I felt like I had someone I could trust while we were away.”

About: I have had at least one dog as a family pet for my entire life. They have ranged from chihuahuas to german shepherds, and I have loved them all with my whole heart. My family got a cat when I was in high school, and I remember him being so much fun. My fiancé and I finally got our own little kitten a few weeks ago! Since I was little, I've been responsible for feeding my family pets, taking them out to go potty, and taking them for walks around the neighborhood. I have also helped my parents train our pets, and my proudest accomplishment was teaching my King Charles Spaniel/Pekinese, Juji, how to roll over! Some of my dogs have been super calm and loving to family and strangers alike, and some of them have had past traumas that make them scared and sometimes aggressive toward other dogs and people they don't know, so I am equipped to handle all sorts of pups with a range of personalities. Also, I may only be 5'3, but I am surprisingly strong, so leash-pullers aren't necessarily an issue(: As a cat owner, I recognize and respect that they’re NOT the same as dogs and will give them the time and space to warm up to me if they need that. I can't wait to meet your lovely pets! I’m currently working full-time, so I’m only available after 4:30pm on weekdays. I work from home one day per week (the day varies week to week), so I can be flexible on those days if you request me at least a week in advance. On weekends I’m usually pretty free and ready to go on walks or do drop-ins whenever! I will always be respectful of the pets in my clients’ homes, recognizing that it’s their space, not mine. If the client isn’t home when I first see the animal, I’ll let them come to me and won’t grab them or anything like that. I’ll stick to any schedules the client has laid out for me and will keep the place orderly and clean if it’s a longer stay.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have always loved taking care of them. I have a dog of my own and have helped care for pets of all kinds, from neighborhood pups to family cats. I’ve participated in dog training classes, I’m certified in animal CPR, and I’m currently a pre-veterinarian major studying biology. So this isn’t just something I enjoy, I’m truly passionate about it. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I always try to make them feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a walk, a check-in, or just some company while you’re away, I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own! As a college student, I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have lots of time during the week and weekends to hang out with your pets. Walks, check-ins, playtime, I’d be so excited to do any of these with your furry friends. I love being outside and active, so spending time with animals is honestly the best part of my routine. I’m super mindful about keeping pets safe and comfortable, whether I’m in your home or out on a walk. I always follow care instructions closely, and I’m trained in animal CPR, so I’m prepared for emergencies (just in case!). I’ve also taken pet training classes, so I know how to read behavior and respond calmly if a pup gets nervous or overly excited. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure and happy, and to leave you feeling totally at ease, too.

About: I have two pets of my own that I love and adore but looking for something to do part time. I’m available Saturday’s and Sunday’s and most weeknights. I currently do have a full time job with a flexible schedule. I’m open most of the day Saturday and Sunday! I can also do some evenings during the week. Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. From dogs, cats to horses, I’ve spent my whole life around animals! I currently have two indoor dogs that I love dearly.

About: My motto is that it’s my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I’m with your pup , I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it’s my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they’re used to at home . I’m a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as can just come second nature for me ! Although I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far reaching than that. I’ve worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally It’s always great to chat with owners about what makes their pup tick ! Finally , I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all

About: I have experience dog sitting and cat sitting for friends and family, and I’m also a cat mom myself! I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, playing with them, talking to them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I’m patient, responsible, and will treat your pets like my own. I’m also happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away! I have flexible daily schedule. I prefer morning and evening visits during weekdays and flexible on weekends and holidays. Feel free to contact ahead if you need any adjustments. I would be happy to help! I would like to know what’s the best way to be friends with your fluffy babies and what things I need to know before we meet.
