Stacy was awesome! She stepped in last minute when my previous sitter backed out the day before I was going out of town and she did an amazing job! She was super friendly and very communicative so I always felt like my fur babies were in good hands :)

Pet Sitting

Hello, my name is Taylor. A little about myself, I am great with animals, and adore pets. Ever since I was a child I was definitely "that child" that had to pet every dog I see. I have never lived in a home without pets, and have experience owning a variety from cats and dogs to unique rodents. I have professional experience working as a certified dog day camp / pet sitting business for over 3 years called Camp Happy Tails in Felton, CA. Our activities included watching, caring, and grooming for pets. As well I have done countless personal pet sitting jobs for close friends and neighbors for cats, dogs, birds, and a variety of other pets. Currently, I work as a nanny and that job includes caring for their Swiss Mountain Dog. I understand how important pets are to the family and would of course treat yours as I would my own. References are available for personal and professional pet sitting jobs. Thank you for your consideration

We hired Taylor to walk and play with our 1 year old lab, who is very energetic. Our dog liked Taylor right away and loved playing ball with her at the park. Taylor was on time, respectful of our social distancing/mask requests when meeting in person, and even sent pictures of our dog while she was in her care. We recommend her for any pet care needs!

I have worked with a multitude of animals. I currently have a dog that I have trained for 2 years. I have owed 2 cats and 4 dogs in my lifetime. I adopt older animals so I am able to easily provide medicine and clean up accidents easily and effectively. I would love to provide love and car for your pet.

We hired Daniela to take care of our dog and two cats for a week. She responded quickly to my messages prior to talking on the phone. She arrived for the initial meeting right on time. She texted me when she arrived at the house on the first day and sent me updates throughout the week. The house, along with our dog and cats, were all well cared for. I would hire Daniela again without hesitation.

Sarah B.|San Diego, CA

Pet Sitter And Walker

Hi, I'm Sarah! :) I grew up around all types of animals and have many years of experience caring for small and large pets alike! Currently, I have a very open schedule, allowing me to spend lots of quality time walking and sitting your furry friends. I absolutely love being around all animals and have been doing this for several years now. I do have a car that would allow me to drive all over the San Diego area to help you out. I'm happy to answer any questions you may have and look forward to meeting you! :)

Sarah grew up in a home with many animals. She has a gentle spirit that animals gravitate to. Though I have not seen her attending to human children, I can say that she is very good at caring for animals of all sorts. I know what it takes to care for children, having cared for Sarah since she was born, and I know she has a good heart and nurturing spirit. She always seems to know the right things to say so, I'm sure she will gently steer children in directions they should go. I would feel very safe with Sarah caring for children. She is a good and safe driver. She has a good head on her shoulders. What else can I say? She is my little girl all grown up, and my eyes tear up a little to think she might be caring for your child. You have no worries with Sarah caring for your kids. She is very responsible and caring with precious lives of all species.

Emily is the best! She has watched my cat, 2 kittens, and 13 year old blind dog - both short term and long term when I went away for a vacation. She is a clear animal lover and not only makes sure they are well taken care of (including food, water, walks and exercise, play time, and cleaning up after them) but gives them all the love and pets they deserve - so my pets love her too! She also sent me cute photos of them while I was gone which I really appreciated because I always miss my babies. I have and will continue to trust Emily with my pets!

Child And Pet Caregiver

Responds within a day

Hi there! My name is Evelyn and I love working with children! I strive to develop connections with children I work with to help make them feel safe, happy, and engaged during our time together. I have 5 years of experience with working with kids ages 3-10. My responsibilities included: making dinner, entertaining the kids (with games, going out to parks, museums, etc.), and tucking them in (getting into pajamas, getting into bed, reading stories until they fall asleep). Nothing makes me happier than the joy of working with children and seeing them grow and mature into wonderful young adults! I have 6 years of experience working with different animals. I worked on a horse farm for 5 years caring and feeding the horses. I adhered to the strict feeding schedule and oversaw safety and living standards. I also have been working with dogs since I was a young kid and I have professional experience with dog care taking at a dog resort.

I would highly recommend Anne for pet sitting service. Anne is reliable, flexible, and honest. My family is active duty military and we had her watch our cat during an out-of-state transition. She watched our cat for approximately two months while we were traveling, staying with family, and waiting for a new home to be built. I was worried about leaving our cat long term, however Anne was excellent at staying in contact with providing day today updates. Our cat enjoyed her stay with Anne!

Loving Sitter For Pets!

Hi! I have been actively dog-sitting and -walking through sitter-matching sites for the past five months. Before then, I had dogs since I was 5 years old, with up to 3 at a time in my family home. I've helped care for 2 of my roommate's dogs, including when they were puppies, lots of potty patience, walks and runs and hikes, care for a few paw and tail injuries, and my favorite, trips to the dog beach. I enjoy being active with dogs and also totally relaxing and cuddling, and I've stayed many times with dogs who require both. I have administered medication to a friend's dog who I stayed with 4 times, and cleaned up after him when he was sick. I have also watched friends' cats many times, often for two at a time. Dogs and cats are best friends, and I know first-hand how attached they are to you -- which is why I care about them being happy and healthy while you're at work or out of town. To be honest, this job is so special to me and I appreciate you letting me love your pets!

Best Pet Care Is With Love

Hi pet parents, I always loved dog and cats my whole life. Took care for my brother-in-law dog last year. Bringing him to walks, parks, playing and feeding him. I had a poodle that was a senior and is a pleasure I had him and took care of him all his life. Just recent adopted a cat from Humane society and live with the cat and my husband in Downtown. Have experience with cats for 4 years. I did some pet-sitter last year with dogs and that made my heart warm. I just loved and I'm open to make more walks and also sitting them. Look forward to hear back from you! Thanks

Care And Dedication... Pet Lover!

Responds within minutes

I'm Brazilian, 37 years old, I've been living in SD since 2015. I am passionate about pets. I had pets to share all the steps in my life, and I feel complete around them. I have a great experience taking care of dogs. In Brazil, I use to help a vet, my friend, as an assistant in some surgery procedures, and some duties, like giving baths, meds, and some daily routines. I also volunteered in animal shelters. I helped with feeding the pets, giving them baths, and clean up areas. So here I turned my passion into a job, I became a pet sitter/dog walker on some pet care apps/websites. My returning customers have been increasing, which makes me happy and sure that I'm on the right track!
