“Great provider. Very caring and thoughtful. Will hire again.”


About: My family and I have always had multiple dogs raised from puppies to full grown dogs that I helped to care for. This includes walking, bathing, feeding, playing fetch, trimming nails and taking them to the vet. I have also taken care of our farm animals daily needs. I work part time and my day to day schedule is very flexible. I am open to same day sitting jobs if needed. I am available to take dog to the vet as well. I have one friendly dog that loves furry company. I can accommodate needs of sitting location, depending on client’s preference. I have toys, crates, treats and dog beds to ensure comfort and needs are met.

About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.

About: As a high school student, I volunteered at the local human society as a part of my high school credit. When I was an adult, I was able to adopt my first dog, Blue 🩵. I had her for 7 years and she passed from a terminal illness. I currently care for my partner’s elder dog, Koa and red foot tortoise, Ruby. I have experienced with puppies and elders. If you dog needs As a PhD student at LSU, my summer schedule is flexible and open for pet care. Because most days are spent in front of a computer screen thinking, writing, and theorizing, spending time with your pets is the best way for me to decompress. My current routine includes going to the gym and watching too many dystopian shows to starve off the impending doom. So watching your pet will allow me to break up my current routine. I am a photographer, so don’t be surprised if you receive a few pro-level portraits of your pet along the way from time to time. My parents taught me always to leave a place better than I found it. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent and familiar as possible. I understand that every pet and every parent has their own rhythm and preferences. I aim to honor that by being a supportive, trustworthy presence in your pet’s environment.

About: Having four dogs of my own and dog-sitting since I was 15 years old, I’ve never met a pet I didn’t love. I hope to help you and your pets by offering safe and dependable care that meets the owner’s satisfaction while also helping with other household chores while the family is away. From now until August 15, I am flexible all throughout the week. Once I start college, I will be free to house and dog sit in homes during weekends or overnight during the week. I will also have some availability for dog walking through the week. With my flexible college schedule, I can do constant check in’s in the client’s home while also offering overnight stay if the client would rather that. I am also confident in my ability to make sure your pets follow their usual schedule, whether that be crate training or daily walks, because dogs operate best in their structural routine.

About: I've been around dogs and other animals my whole life. I can't remember there ever being a time where I'm not either playing with and helping take care of the pets in my own home and homes of others. It has not only always been my love of animals that gets me excited whenever I get a chance to interact with them, but my passion and dream of becoming a vet. I've been walking and dogsitting since was 8 or 9 years old and when it comes to helping people with their pets, I take care of them as if they were my own. I've also helped with cats, hamters, gerbils and any other furry pet you could think of. I hope that I get the opportunity to show you just how well I work with animals and just how much I love them.

“Growing up Alayja Dixon dreams was becoming a veternarian. She has a love and compassion for all pets. When it comes to animals she knows how to interact when them. When i got my dog princess. I had to go out of town for a week. Not one time did i worried because i know she was in good hands. When i picked princess up not only did she train her to use the bathroom outside she also told me she think she has a bladder infection. I took her to the doctor and in fact she did. Hadnt she noticed the signs my dog probably wouldnt have been here today. She will make a wonderful pet sitter. I never knew met anyone that shows so much love for animals”

Yvette W.
“I’ve known Yvette for a long time. I know that I’d trust with just about anything, including my dog. She’s proved more than once that she’s able to care for an animal, especially if it’s not her own. She knows how bad she’d disappoint a person if she were to mess up, and she won’t ever take that risk.”
