My name is Nikki and I have always had a passion for animals! When I was a little girl I had an obsession with birds and would constantly point them out when I was outdoors. As an adult, I decided that I wanted to work in the animal field. I started working at a local vet clinic and from there moved on to a career as an animal trainer at Sea World. I started with the birds, otters, and small mammals. This, of course, was a great fit since I always had a love for birds. From there, I moved on to working with sea lions, dolphins, and pilot whales. I worked there for a total of 12 years and now as a mom of 2 boys I have found a way to combine my passion for animals with my family time. I love caring for dogs, cats, and of course parrots!

I'm Tara Brennan and I have grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I would play, walk, and take care of them. I have gone on over 100 walks with Wag and done many pet sitting jobs with Rover before joining Paradise Pet Care. In the past 8 years I have dog and cat sat for my sister and other family members and friends and really loved it. Currently I live in South Mission Hills in San Diego and I am thrilled to take care of your pets!

Cali is a Vet Tech student taking night classes at Pima Medical Institute. San Diego born and raised, she moved to LA after high school to attend UCLA for over 2 years. During her third year she got a job as a dog handler at a boarding/daycare facility, and everything clicked. After countless major changes and years of feeling out of place, she knew she had to move back home and pursue her childhood dream job of being a veterinarian. Now she’s at the top of her class, on track to graduate by Dec 2020 and become licensed Vet Tech a year after! She started contracting with Paradise Pet Care soon after moving back, and is now gets always asked for various jobs for pets with medical needs. She volunteers at the shelters and is surrounded by animals 24/7 . Her life is dedicated to ensuring their safety and well-being in any way she can.

Hi, I’m Sarah and I’ve been pet sitting for over 6 years! I moved to San Diego for college and began pet sitting as a way to help pay for school, but over time it quickly became more of a passion rather than a profession. I love meeting new pets and making them feel loved and special while their family is away, and I pride myself on treating each pet as if they were my own. I have experience with pretty much every type of pet imaginable and I'm very comfortable with pets of all ages and energy levels!"
