About: ✅ Same-day photo updates ✅ Flexible schedule ✅ Comfortable with dogs & cats ✅ Small & medium dogs welcome I’ve been a pet parent to both dogs and cats for many years, and caring for animals has always been a meaningful part of my life. My pets weren’t just animals—they were family. Saying goodbye to them was one of the hardest experiences I’ve ever had, which is why I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet in someone else’s care. I treat every pet with the same patience, kindness, and attention that I gave my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I know that every pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions carefully to help them feel at home. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable pet care throughout the week. I’m available for drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting on weekdays and weekends. I always do my best to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications, and daily routines. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment, and I always make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure. I’ll also send regular updates and photos so you’ll always know how your pet is doing.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and have spent the past 11 years with my two dogs, a Pit Bull mix and a Jack Russell Terrier. I’m very experienced with walking, bathing, and caring for dogs, and I consider my own dogs part of my family. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I treat every dog with love, kindness, and respect, just as I would my own. I’m excited to turn my love for dogs into something I can do every day while providing reliable, caring service to your furry family members! I’m currently not working, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available throughout the week, except for Mondays, and I’m also available on weekends. I enjoy spending time with dogs, taking them on walks, playing with them, and making sure they get plenty of attention. I offer dog walking and pet sitting, but I don’t offer boarding since I have two dogs of my own. In my own home, my two dogs have access to a dog door and a spacious backyard where they can play and enjoy themselves. They’re also welcome to sleep in my room because I love having them close to me. I’m very attentive and affectionate with my dogs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I would take the time to get to know each dog’s personality and approach them gently so they don’t feel nervous or overwhelmed. I would respect their boundaries, follow the owner’s instructions, and maintain their usual routines. I would also make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, affection, and love. My goal is to make every dog feel as happy, safe, and loved as they do at home.

“Vicky stepped in on short notice and took such good care of my dog. She was communicative, sent photos and videos, and I couldn’t be more appreciative. Highly recommend working with Vicky!”

About: I have taken care of my dog for four years. In additional, I have helped a friend dog sit their dog for two month while they are on vacation. Have taken care of female dogs during heat. I will prioritize the pets’ routine during my day. Usually walk the dog in the morning around 8 and feed them breakfast. Then I will go about my day. I have a very flexible work schedule so I have plenty of time to play with the dog. In the afternoon I will take her on a second walk of the day and feed her dinner. Scheduled daily walks and meal time. I would play with them whenever I have a chance. Give them space to rest when it is needed.

“Such a wonderful, kind person! Celest was super sweet to my puppy and took her time with him. She was on time and very responsive to messages. She also followed my instructions well. Def will be booking her again for future needs! Thank you so much Celest!”

About: What truly sets me apart as a pet sitter is my extensive experience, diverse skill set, and unwavering passion for animals. Raising two Pomeranians and two shorthaired tuxedo cats from infancy to adulthood has provided me with invaluable insights into pet care. Additionally, my experience fostering pit bulls, pinchers, and golden retrievers has equipped me with the ability to handle a wide range of breeds and temperaments. One of my specialties is managing reactive dogs, a skill honed through firsthand experience with my own two Pomeranians. I understand the challenges of walking them in a bustling city and have developed effective strategies to keep them calm and well-behaved in such environments. This expertise ensures that I can provide exceptional care for all pets, regardless of their behavioral quirks or challenges. But beyond practical skills, my deep love for animals sets me apart. Being in their presence is not just a job for me – it's a source of joy and fulfillment. Every interaction, whether it's training a puppy or providing comfort to a senior pet, fills my soul with gratitude. This profound connection drives me to go above and beyond to ensure the happiness and well-being of every furry friend entrusted to my care. I work in person with occasional option for remote work and a lot of flexibility with hours. I am an early riser so tend to be up and moving by 7am the latest to get pet care sorted straight away and leaves me enough time to do thorough care routines prior to work. After work which can finish from 3-6pm Monday to Friday, I am free all evening to provide the necessary pet care I have a relatively smallish studio around 400 square feet that has a large window overlooking the city that can open but is not accessible (ie no pet or human can get outside just look outside). The pets are able to go wherever they want in the studio- bed, chairs, table etc (if they want!). The apartment is secure and inaccessible to most unless I let them in so is a safe home. I will ensure the pets if left alone are always safely in the apartment and have access to their food and water at all times. Extra accommodations like pads can be added to the house if not house trained. Animal safety and wellbeing is my upmost priority. As an animal owner myself, I understand the fear and anxiety with trusting someone to look after your angels which is why I treat all pets like my own and go above and beyond to ensure their safety. Open consistent communication is crucial to create a trusting relationship where the pets are at the heart of the conversation always so I will always send regular updates with photos throughout the day/night to ensure pet owners are involved and aware of what's going on

About: I have owned and loved dogs all of my life. Attention and love will given to your precious pet. I keep my client's pets as active as suits them while surrounding them with nature and fun. I am available full-time throughout the week. I devote my time and care as an attentive pet sitter and animal lover. 3 daily walks will be provided. I work part-time in the mornings and my wife also assists me with pet care. We love playing and interacting with our client’s pets. We make a great team! I have a large fenced yard and live in a quiet, pet friendly neighborhood . I can attend to any special needs your pet may have.

About: Hello, I currently work at a doggy daycare named St. Tropawz. It can become quite busy, meaning I'm familiar with caring for up to 15 dogs at any given time. I'm particularly fond of Dobermans and high energy breeds like Huskies. I understand how to work with a dogs temperament to keep everyone safe during sudden unforeseen events. I work part time at a doggy daycare located in Rosemead California named St. Tropawz. Outside of that I'm a student, currently learning Linux and cybersecurity after having been in the cannabis industry for 7 years. I'm familiar with how to approach pets that are unfamiliar with me but would greatly appreciate meeting your pet alongside you to help establish trust. I currently have a senior Husky named whiskie who is ten and a half years of whom I take for daily walks while riding my longboard. That way he gets to stretch his legs and go for a nice run or jaunt jog. While working at the doggy daycare, I will at times look after dogs who are a bit skittish. I understand the importance in giving a dog space and allowing them the time and patience needed to warm up to new individuals. I also was taught by my parents to respect another persons home. I like to think the way we interact with the world around us is a reflection of how we were raised and a mirror to our inner world. With that in mind I will pay careful mind to your space, your instructions and your pets!

About: I have a heart for animals and love being with them and taking care of them. It really brings me a lot of joy. I love walking dogs and going on a mini adventure. Playing with them and making sure they have everything they need to keep them happy and healthy. I'm pretty flexible Monday - Saturday for dog walking, dog/cat sitting.Can start around 7am - 9pm most days. I can also do overnights if needed and come back later in the day if needed. I'm reliable and responsible. I will give loving care to your pet just like I would my own dog or cat. I have a heart for animals and they bring me joy. I aim to give that joy right back to them too! I love walking dogs and taking care of fur babies.

About: Growing up without pets of my own, I was always happy to help out family and friends with their pets. While more of a cat person, I’ve watched dogs of many breeds and ages, lizards, fish, and birds as well. I’ve administered medicine to older kitties, worked with aggressive smaller dogs, and walked dogs twice my size (I am only 5”2) ☺️ I’m also known to go above and beyond simply because I love animals. I treat them all like they are my own and understand leaving them is never easy. I aim to provide peace of mind in any way possible. At home I have two kitty cats that my partner and I care for. When I’m watching your pets, they are my top priority. Any hours you need, I have you covered. I teach yoga a few times a week so I’m flexible (pun intended) with my schedule! At your home, I will have a list of any questions upon arrival to ensure your pets stay safe and healthy with me. We’ll go over feeding, sleeping, play zones, water, and any medication your pets need. On top of that, I’ll ensure I have knowledge of all doors or windows that can be opened to allow your pet outside.

“Sylvia is the best ☺️👍”

“Alex was a great dog walker, Molly loved her and she was very patient and kind with Molly. Will definitely use her services again!”

“I can’t thank Raymond enough for being so professional and patient! Even though my dog had a difficult moment and nipped at him, he handled the situation with incredible calm and care. He didn’t get upset or give up—instead, he made sure my dog still got a good walk and stayed safe. His understanding and kindness truly showed how experienced and compassionate he is with animals. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

And after walks, I always wipe their paws and check for any signs of abnormalities. For cat drop-in visits, I perform husbandry including litter box cleaning and refilling, feeding and socializing if needed. Customization is welcomed. Communication is very important and trust can be built. Let’s make this a great experience.
