Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Waterfront, Santa Barbara

“Ajna was amazing! She was able to help on short notice and give our senior cat her medications. Super responsible and sent daily pictures :) thank you, Ajna!”

“We were so pleased with the care our rather old, rather shy cat received from Crispin. And, to my amazement-the kitty area was as clean as I left it. Crispin, both kitty and I thank you!”

“I can't recommend Ava highly enough as a dog sitter. From the moment I met her, I knew my furry friend was in good hands. Ava exudes warmth and compassion, and she treats every pet as if they were her own. Communication is key when it comes to leaving your beloved pet in someone else's care, and Ava excels in this department. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, giving me peace of mind knowing that my dog was happy and content. What truly sets Ava apart is her genuine love for animals. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, quirks, and routines, ensuring that Stella (my dog) felt comfortable and at ease during her stay. Whether it was going for long walks, playing fetch in the park, or just curling up on the couch for some cuddle time, Ava made sure that my dog received the attention and care she deserved. Reliability is another hallmark of Ava's service. I never once had to worry about her being late or cancelling last minute. She is incredibly professional and organized, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free.”

“This is the second time I’ve booked with Alejandra and I couldn’t be happier with her level of care for my kittens. Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”

“Cheryl is reliable, trustworthy, and very responsive and communicative. She always sends pictures from her dog walks and a short paragraph afterwards on how everything went. I very seldom need a dog walker but would highly recommend Cheryl!”

“What truly sets Iris apart is her genuine care and affection for the dogs she walks and it was evident that Iris has a genuine passion for animals, particularly dogs. Iris took the time to engage with Ziggy, providing ample opportunities for exercise, play, and socialization. Iris took the time to understand Ziggy's personality, quirks, and preferences during our initial meeting. Throughout the entire duration of our arrangement, Iris kept me updated with regular photos and messages, providing me with peace of mind knowing that Ziggy was in safe hands. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend Iris to anyone in need of a reliable and caring dog walker!”

“I highly recommend Honey for Rover; she is a responsible and loving dog owner herself. She has both great pet and people skills, including lots of patience! She's great at managing all kinds of pet behaviors and providing lots of love and attention.”

“Ryan is wonderful with dogs, he has a black lab and a golden retriever and loves spending time with his dogs and taking them on walks. He is extremely responsible and reliable and takes great care of his pets, I promise you he will do the same with yours. I highly recommend Ryan!”

“Matilda is the kind of girl who will ask to pet every stranger's dog she meets, no matter how sandy, stinky, big or small she really just loves the animals. Plus, the fact she’s been able to take care of my disastrous duo consisting of a hyper energetic yapping Pomeranian Yorkie, and my cute but conniving Queensland heeler, your dogs could not be in better hands.”

“Bella is such a caring dog walker. She was patient with our dogs while they got used to her. Now they get so excited when they see her. She goes above and beyond to ensure the dogs have a fun time. She truly cares for our dogs. We would highly recommend her as a dog walker/sitter.”

About: I have always grown up with all kinds of animals-- cats, dogs, hermit crabs, rats and hamsters, and even took in a squirrel in high school! I have been animal sitting/ baby sitting for money since 8th grade and will take great care of your pet. I am currently enrolled at SBCC and taking mostly online classes and currently have a lot of free time. I would love to be considered! As a freshman at Santa Barbara City College (SBCC) balancing part-time work, I've structured my schedule to accommodate my studies and job responsibilities, except for Wednesdays. With planning, I'm completely capable and adaptable to a need schedule. I live in an apartment right next to Santa Barbara City College and the beach is convenient and there is plenty of grass nearby, but unfortunately, there's no yard directly where I live.

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

“Jess is great with our dogs and they love her! I have a mini Aussie and a Norwich Terrier who love playing and hanging out with Jess. She has stayed in our home and she has been great.”

“We had a great experience with Zet . Our cat was happy too. Zet was trustworthy from the first time I met her. She is client focused and responsible. She was accommodating for us when we requested an extra visit last minute.”

About: I have had animals all my life. My mother was a veterinary technician and as a kid I often went to work with her and helped with the animals. I have owned my own dogs since the age of 19 and have seen them all through their entire lives. I currently have a 15-1/2 year old pup and I give her only the best care. I am very empathetic and can anticipate many dogs needs. I also have a lot of medical knowledge about dogs and am great in emergencies in case anything happens. My dog is resource-protective and leash reactive, so I have a lot of experience with that as well. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility to be able to help others give their pets what they need when it comes to dog walks, love and companionship. Great for the busy working dog parent I will do whatever it takes to keep your dog safe, comfortable and happy. I can only watch dogs in your home, and will follow any rules you have set out for your doggo's care.
