Both Margaret and Kasey have walked our dog for us and they do an exceptional job! You can tell they are truly pet people. They are extremely communicative and give very thorough summaries for each visit with a ton of pictures. Our dog loves Kasey! The app they use makes booking, payment, and communication super easy. Prices are fair and my dog is so happy!

I was a new client and thought I had Christine lined up to watch my cats over the holidays. But since I did not fill out a very lengthy client profile page COMPLETELY prior to our meet-and-greet (no matter it was mostly complete and two weeks prior to the actual pet sitting appt AND that we had confirmed the appts verbally a couple days before with no mention of this), she cancelled on me. I can appreciate the need for certain policies and her attention to detail (as I'm sure it is applied to pet care as well) but just prefer a pet sitter who is more easy-going and much easier to work with. I am also looking for one who does not charge a key return fee--I don't like the idea of giving someone my house keys to 'keep on hand' or paying them just to get them back.

Christine at Pridey Girl Petcare is the best dog walker and pet care provider you will find in La…read moreMesa. I moved here from Minneapolis in January 2014 and had a loving, devoted dog walker back home. I was so worried about finding someone new who I could trust in my home and trust with my sweet little sheltie, Miss Ryan. I'm single and occasionally travel, so I also need someone who can take her when I'm out of town. Christine and I had an instant connection, and even more importantly, she and my sweet little dog had the same connection. She does geo-location check ins and status updates with Instagram and Facebook, which is great for me to see my dog on her Facebook page, but also a wonderful and practical use of social media marketing. If you need a dog walker in La Mesa, I cannot recommend Pridey Girl Pet Care enough. :)

Angie has been absolutely fantastic with my fur girl. She's incredibly personable, kind,…read moreprofessional, and respectful. Her rates are very fair for the area. As soon as I started a text exchange with her to inquire about her services, I got very positive vibes from her, which were validated when we had our meet and greet. I could see her experience from the questions that she asked and the information that she proactively gave me. Angie comes within the planned window every day and is extremely communicative about scheduling and the walk. She's so respectful about making sure to accommodate any requests (no shoes inside, wiping paws, etc). I'm usually not at home when Angie comes, but there have been occasions where I still ask her to come when I'm working from home, if I have back to back mid-day meetings. You can tell just how much my dog LOVES her by the way she rushes to the door. It's so sweet how they have their little routine and my dog has definitely accepted Angie (and her adorable kids!) as part of her "pack."

We just moved to SD and didn't know anyone well enough to watch our cat for the week we were gone…read more We found Jennifer from Pawsitive Pet Sitting on yelp and are so glad we did. Jennifer is incredibly professional and absolutely knows what she is doing, and she's definitely a cat whisperer. Since we had just moved to SD, our cat was still really freaked out about everything in the new apartment and constantly hiding under the bed. Everytime ANYone came over she would hide the entire time. I was so anxious about leaving her for a whole week just after moving here with how poorly she seemed to be doing in the new place. Jennifer came over for our first meeting, and our cat came out almost immediately to meet her, which was just the first amazing thing that happened. In addition to that, everything Jennifer told us about her experience and how she runs her business sounded perfect. Upon hiring Jennifer for the job, I finally felt OK about leaving for our trip. During the week we were gone, she sent us updates with the best pictures after each and every visit, and was super communicative and responsive to a last minute schedule change I had. After we came back from our trip, we were completely amazed to find that our cat was no longer scared of our new apartment. She hasn't hidden once since we got home. Usually when we come back from a trip our cat is upset with us and more skittish, but she seems even happier and more comfortable than when we left. In fact, I think she misses Jennifer!

***UPDATE*** I wish…read moreI could give Jennifer more than five stars!! She has been walking our dog twice a week for over a year and NEVER has she been late or canceled. She lets us know if she notices anything abnormal. Once our dog got very sick while we were at work and Jennifer let us know and suggested we take her to the vet, then she stayed with our dog for thirty minutes to monitor her until we made it home from work. We can tell that she really cares about our dog and that our dog adores her. Honestly, we couldn't have a shepherd in an apartment without the help of Jennifer. She's reliable and kind and we are so thankful we found her. Thanks, Jennifer!!

It was a pleasure to have Jess from Huntress and The Hound dog sit for my two Frechies while we…read morewere away on vacation for a week. I found Jess while looking around online for dog-sitting services with reactivity experience. In my initial call with Jess, I found she has a reactive dog on her own and knew how to deal with it. Our other Frenchie is a senior dog. While she is easy to care for, there are a few special instructions on potty breaks and feeding. My husband was against the idea of having someone we did not know come in and stay with our dogs. Jess scheduled an in-person meeting with us about 6 weeks before our vacation. She immediately made us both feel at ease. I am also one of those annoying helicopter dog moms who leave detailed Google Doc instructions on schedule, feeding, playtime, etc. Jess read through all of it and kept to the information I provided. She sent us daily updates, videos, and photos while we were on vacation out of the country. She was highly communicative the entire time. We even asked her to do a few simple household things which were not dog related (keep an eye on our garden and put out some items for pickup), and she took care of them. She also cared for our chameleon, giving him food and water daily. When we returned back from vacation, our dogs were happy and the house was as we left it. I was very anxious about leaving the dogs leading up to our trip but Jess made sure I did not have a worry while we were away. We highly recommend Jess!

Jess is INCREDIBLE and I refer her to everyone who needs pet care. She was crucial to a huge move…read moremy family and I did over the summer. What started as pet care for 3 weeks quickly shifted to helping us move our cat abroad !!! Jess took our kitty, Nutmeg, to the vet for us, took her on walks (our cat is leash-trained haha), and helped us send Nutmeg off with a friend who was flying her to us. That's some serious stuff, so we REALLY trust Jess with our furbabies and she's the best person to take care of yours! That is for sure. Thank you again for everything, Jess!

Nanette is amazing! I was really nervous about letting someone who we don't know personally to…read morewatch our kittens and be in our home, but I felt super at ease after we talked and met Nanette in person. She definitely has animal whisperer vibes :) and I felt like she was someone I could trust. We left for about a week and had her come twice a day. She would send videos and pictures of our kittens to let us know how happy they were. When we got home from our trip, she had left everything so clean, way above and beyond what I was expecting a cat sitter to do. The space around the kitty litter and their food was tidy and Nanette even took out one of our recycle boxes and set the bins out for us. She created a video/slideshow with music too, totally wasn't expecting that at all. It is apparent that she loves what she does and takes her job seriously and with a lot of fun too. We will hire her again when we leave on a trip sometime in the future :)

Nanette is TOP NOTCH! The level of service and the personal touch she delivers cannot be beat! I…read morerecently rescued a 5-month old puppy, Neo and because of my busy work schedule, was looking at options into daycare. The moment I contacted Nanette regarding her services, she was prompt and very responsive. I fully trust Nanette with Neo, she not makes sure that he has a good time with her, she also takes the time to re-enforce all of his positive training. The best part is she gives me updates of photos and videos on how Neo is doing. Nanette is the dog-whisperer of San Diego in my book and 100% trust her. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND, Nanette! Do not hesitate if you need a loving and caring person to watch you pup! She will care and love your pup as if they were her own.
