About: My experience has been mostly my family and friends. I have taken their animals on walks, bathed them, fed them, played with them. Took them to parks and even trained them on new skills. Since I just graduated I have very open availability and ready to help. I am very organized and dependable, I value time management, my career/education, and most importantly taking care of people and animals. I am currently waiting for the new school year to roll around and continue my education so my schedule is free. I wake up early to work out but that time can be flexible depending on if I have a pet to watch. I keep the animals on the schedule they are used to. Feed them, fill water, walks, clean behind them, playtime, medicine if they need. Also litter box maintenance for cats. Also making sure we’re safe in the house and my phone near me to contact the owners if needed.

About: I grew up on a farm with many pets and dogs. I have cared for dogs that have needed injections, special diets, and that special attention. I do have 2 corgis so for any boarding in my house it is important that your furry best friend likes other dogs and an initial introduction is paramount for a long term stay. I have an enclosed yard and a doggie door. I am more than happy to also care for dog IN YOUR HOME where pups are most comfortable. Love doing walkies and visits. Been caring and loving pets forever. I work for myself and set my own hours as an administrative assistant and a care giver. I have lots of flexibility. I can adjust my schedule as needed. I have a fenced in yard, a doggie door but I am happy to do walking if that is your pets preference. My corgis are great with other dogs in their space.

“Another fantastic stay for my pup with Jessica!!! As usual, Jessica looked after my dog just as if she was one of her own, and provided me with great updates and lots of pics. But this time, Jessica went above and beyond as Hurricane Francine came through while I was out of town. I couldn’t have been more comfortable knowing my pup was with Jessica and in the best hands during the storm. Even as Jessica faced her own challenges at home because of the storm, she never stopped giving top-notch care to my silly, very quirky, and sometimes a little wild rescue puppy. I wish I could leave an even larger tip, because Jessica absolutely deserves it!”

“Caroline treated our two pets like royalty during their stay. We have stayed with a few different sitters, but Caroline has been our favorite thus far. She was attentive to our needs with the dogs and overall was very courteous and professional. The peace of mind is well worth the cost because I feel that I can trust my four-legged devils in Caroline's care. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”

About: Greetings! I live half a block from Cabrini Dog Park, so if you need a pup sitter, that’s a fun perk. (Park) I’m experienced with most animals, as I was raised on a farm with tons of pets, so I have no problem caring for all creatures, both big and small. (And a green thumb if needed). Let’s chat and see if I can make yours and your pet’s life a bit easier. 😊 😉😁😇 As a writer, I set my own hours, which means I have a flexible schedule that works around your pet’s needs — not the other way around. I recently moved back to Louisiana to reconnect with my roots, and I’m settled in with plenty of time to spare. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends — I can make it work.🐾🐾🐾🐾 I live alone with my one small pup, so your fur baby won’t be competing for attention — they’ll get my full focus. My home is quiet and calm, perfect for pets who prefer a low-key environment over a chaotic house full of other animals. My own dog is friendly and well-socialized, so introductions tend to go smoothly.

About: Hi! I’m Tay, equal parts responsible adult and dog hype person. I’m the type to send you update pictures like your dog just graduated college. Whether your pup is energetic, anxious, clingy, goofy, or convinced they own the house, I adjust to their vibe quickly. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely love animals, but I also understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal. Your pet will get plenty of attention, care, walks, playtime, and probably a few compliments they don’t deserve. I’m comfortable with different personalities and routines, from couch potato cuddle experts to dogs training for the Dog Olympics. I’ll follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special care requests carefully. Bonus: your dog can vent to me about you while you’re gone, and I legally cannot tell you what they said. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! 🐾 I work from home, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, supervision, and company throughout the day. I’m available for daytime care, walks, potty breaks, playtime, feedings, medication schedules, and all the “throw the toy again immediately” requests your dog may have. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pup loves nonstop attention or prefers a calm nap buddy nearby, I can accommodate their needs throughout the day. I live in a very nice open spaced 2 bedroom house with a fenced yard and hardwood floors. I have a yard with lots of room for animals to play and enjoy themselves.

“This was our first time using Rover and we couldn't have been happier than to have met Tessa. We were gone for 11 days and she was extremely flexible and accommodating when it came to picking up our dog watching him for an extended period of time and also communicating clearly how things might work out in the event that we face some thing like a hurricane which is not uncommon to have Kern over the time period that we were gone”

The communication was great and prompt, she made sure I had as many updates of Millie via photos and videos as possible, and she was extremely flexible with my schedule! Millie had a great time while we were on family vacation, almost like having her own vacation! Thank you, Oshie, for the amazing last minute service, and for comforting me with using an out of state sitter for the first time. We are so thankful for you and your family for watching over our girl!”

About: I have always had a deep love for animals, and that passion has shaped my experience with pet care throughout my life. From a young age, I’ve been the go-to person in my family and circle of friends for looking after their pets. Whether it's walking dogs, feeding, administering medication, or just offering companionship, people have always relied on me to ensure their pets are well-cared for. I currently have four cats, and they truly are my life. Over the years, I’ve gained an in-depth understanding of their behaviors, quirks, and specific needs. I know how to create an environment where they feel safe, loved, and stimulated—whether it’s through play, grooming, or simply providing them with the space they need. Each of my cats has its own personality, and I've learned how to adapt my care for each of them individually. While I don't own dogs, I’m well-versed in their needs as well. I understand the importance of routine, exercise, and companionship, and I’m comfortable with all breeds and temperaments. My experience with both cats and dogs gives me a comprehensive understanding of how to care for different animals and ensure they’re happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, from feeding and playtime to walks and grooming, ensuring all pets receive the attention and care they deserve. In both my home and clients' homes, I follow a personalized approach to pet care. I provide plenty of playtime, routine feeding, and ensure their environment is safe and comfortable. Whether it's administering medications, grooming, or simply offering companionship, I cater to each pet's specific needs and ensure they feel loved and secure.

“Dex was very sweet to my girls especially Raven, my shy girl. They were very patient with her and provided her with the comfort needed for Raven to get comfortable. My girls were treated like family with Dex, and that is all I can ask for. This was my first time leaving my girls with a stranger rather than family, and I was very nervous. Dex has melted away those nerves. I plan on using their services again for another upcoming trip.”

While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.

Many sitters in LA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
