“She was absolutely wonderful. Very sweet, and tentative to our animals. We feel that she went above and beyond. Would definitely recommend her services. And we will definitely use her in the future.”


About: I've taken care of animals my whole life! Now that I have pets of my own, I know how hard it is to get someone trust worthy to watch them, so I am here to help! I am young and very active so your animals will be very entertained. I work remotely so I am home all day everyday so you never have to worry about them being alone. I am also very diligent with training so I can help there as well. I work remotely so I am home all the time. I can easily continue whatever routine they are on, or bring them on mine! They will be watched all day all night, weekdays and weekends. I live in a two-story home with two empty bedrooms, so they have plenty of room to roam. I also have a fenced-in backyard and live three houses down from a large park. There's a hike in my community that I love to go on and I am a regular at the dog beach. I also have an 11 month old pup so your dog will have a friend! I can absolutely continue whatever routine they have, and crate them or give them their own room at night if that is preferred.

“Cheyanne took good care of Shelby, Windsor, and Regina George. She completed the drop-in visits, followed our feeding instructions, and sent photo updates throughout the weekend. After an address mix-up at the start, she still came to the correct house and took care of the dogs. They were well looked after.”


About: I’ve cared for animals of all kinds since I was 10. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and check in on their pets. I’m responsible, patient, loving, and always make sure pets feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently completing an externship, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for boarding on weekends and have availability on weekdays after my externship. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for both dogs and cats. I follow each pet’s routine, respect their needs, and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and care.
“Kristine provided great communication, updates, and pictures. Kristine made my time away from home feel at ease and enjoy my time with my son and daughter. I will highly recommend her!!”

About: Hi there! My name is Lukasz Paul and any dog I’ve met I have loved like my own! Growing up, I had my German Shepherd, and my Belgian Malinois. I also helped my parents with their pet sitting business in Santa Clarita. From pet sitting, long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets, I’ve got experience with it all! I’ve also administered medication to dogs of all ages and sizes. Our pups were rescued as well, with little training, so teaching them tricks was always a fun time! I’m working, so the days I added that are available, have to be either requested Later at night or very early in the morning. My work schedule does change week by week. So it does depend on my schedule on when I am available. My main job, at home is to show love and appreciation towards my dog. When she does something good, I treat her. Doing this will help her to understand me better.
“We could not be happier with the attention and care taken while we were away. This was our first time away from the cats, and their first time without us. When we returned they were happy, running around, tails in the air, and acting normal as if nothing different had happened. Maybe a little hurt they didn't seem to mind us being away, but that is all the better. We'll be back with Alyssa next years vacation, without any questions or hesitation.”

“BEST IN THE BUSINESS! Andrew really made our dogs feel right at home with him. The attention he gives them and love he brings them is incredible, treated them like they were his own. Definitely will be our first pick..EVERYTIME!”

“Trinity was thoughtful, considerate of our home and dogs, and did an absolutely wonderful job communicating and meeting our needs as dog owners while also nurturing our pups. She truly went above and beyond by leaving our home looking neat and giving our dogs excellent care. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she shared. We have officially found our dog sitter!”

About: Being a pet owner my whole life has allowed me to understand dogs very well! I’ve dealt with bigger breeds like German Shepards and Pitt bulls, smaller breeds have always gotten along well with my demeanor. I have majority of the day to walk or take dogs to a park or allow them to explore the deserts. Let me know your dogs preference of activity. I stick to the rules, let me know what your dogs need or if they have anything that is specific for them that needs to get done!
