Cheryl is a lifesaver! This was my third time booking with her. She is flexible and professional and even provides daily reports and photos of my kitty with a health condition. Thank you, Cheryl! 😻

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.

Wow! I’m super impressed with Leah and her love of our dogs. Our puppies love her and the time she spent with them. I’ve used her from drop ins and overnights and will use her again in the future. She’s spends quality time with the dogs and gives them her full attention. She also walks them and takes them on adventures to the dog parks and beaches.

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.

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.

Kathleen took wonderful care of our pets, Odie and Ollie, while we were out of town for a long weekend. She communicated with us regularly, which gave us great peace of mind, and it was clear she truly understands animal behavior and enjoys what she does. We came home to happy pets and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

About: Hello, my name is Sandy and I am looking forward to taking care of your furry friend. Like most other animal lovers, I’ve had dogs of all kinds and pets all my life. I have patience, problem solving skills and the ability to cope with challenges under pressure. Also a deep love and appreciation of mother nature and animals. I am semi retired but still enjoy working and set my own schedule so I am available weekdays and weekends. Your pet will be well looked after. I love to go to the beach and will look forward to taking your furry friend with me. Shoreline Park is another favorite daily walk activity and just minutes away. My condo has a small fenced yard and a comfortable home for your doggie’s vacation. I live on the mesa in the Highlands with lots of easy walking just outside the front door and in the Honda Preserve so your pet will have plenty of short walks. I have been a dog owner all my life but when my last dog Nates, the absolute best dog in the world my children and I rescued from the animal shelter, left the planet for dog heaven, I couldn’t bring myself to get another and my children were all grown so I very much enjoy taking care of other’s pets.

About: I grew up with cats and dogs so I know that patience and understanding is extremely necessary at all times. Animals should always be treated with kindness, respect and love. All animals are important and deserve to be treated just as well as humans. You can trust me with your fur baby :) Let me know if you have any questions! Pet care fits into my weekly routine because I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals. Currently I am unemployed so my schedule has opened up. Animals bring me joy and I am always willing to make time for them.. I have a fenced patio and no roomates so you don’t have to worry about your animal getting out. I do have a cat who will be in my room with the door closed, while your fur baby has access to my living room and patio.

About: I’ve taken care of animals, of all kinds, my whole life. Growing up on a homestead has given me the passion as well as practical skill set to take care of animals. Newborn fosters, end of life care, administering medications or specific diets are no problem at all! I’m currently working part time, so I have an abundance of availability. Missing my furry babies back home, it would be my pleasure to care for your animals. I am fully prepared and have handled difficult and aggressive animals with ease in the past. I completely understand the fear of being away from your animals, I am always available via phone to ease any concerns.

Kathleen was SO communicative, always reliable, and took such great care of our kitties while we were out of the country for 10 days! One of our cats doesn’t always do great with new people (he gets anxious and thus sometimes a bit aggressive) but he got along GREAT with Kathleen and she did so well with both of our cats! We will definitely be working with her again!

We had a family emergency and had to travel to the east coast after adopting our new puppy. Chelsi checked in on her, played with her and made sure she felt comfortable before leaving. Chelsi was super responsive, sent photos and always made sure to check in. We appreciated her care so much and will def book her again if given the opportunity. Thank you!!

Caroline was great with Pepe, who isn’t used to being left home alone very often. He is a sensitive, shy, and stubborn older gentleman, but Caroline went above & beyond catering to his needs, working with us to address any concerns in real time as they arose. Communication was excellent, care and concern for both our home and pet was superb, updates were regular & consistent. We are so grateful to her and would highly recommend Caroline without hesitation.
