“Absolutely the best !!!”
“Absolutely thrilled with Jason's dog walking services! We entrusted him with our energetic bull terrier, Drako, and couldn't be happier with the results. Drako is a high-energy breed that thrives on long walks and runs, and Jason consistently delivers. Jason is incredibly dependable, always shows up and ready to go. He clearly has a genuine love for dogs. He's patient, calm, and goes above and beyond to make sure Drako gets the exercise and attention he needs. We especially appreciate that Jason keeps us informed about Drako's walks, providing updates and peace of mind. It's evident that Jason truly cares for our dog, and we recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog walker. If you want someone who will treat your furry friend like their own, Jason is the perfect choice!”

She's always on time, flexible, friendly, responsible, and can handle even difficult dogs like my defiant husky. There's no question if you need pet services she can handle anything. Communicates quickly and often, takes pet care seriously, I can't think of a single reason why you wouldn't hire her for your pet.”
About: I’ve been caring for pets since I can remember, growing up surrounded by furry friends and learning their needs firsthand. Over the years, my relatives, neighbors, and friends have trusted me with their pets, whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just extra love and attention while they’re away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like family. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or sticking to their routine, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m a creative that works from home so I have plenty of time to take care of yours. I’m an early riser and is available as early as 7am and mostly available on throughout the week and weekends as well. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always ensure that pets are in a secure environment, whether indoors or outdoors, by checking fences, using leashes on walks, and keeping a close eye on them at all times. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to medication needs, to maintain consistency and comfort for the pet. In case of an emergency, I stay calm, assess the situation, and immediately contact the owner while seeking veterinary care if necessary. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so both pets and their owners feel at ease.
“Samantha was incredibly pro and reliable. She was very communicative and thorough to make sure our Sawyer’s care was top notch. Would highly recommend her any time. (She also takes the cutest photos!)”

About: Hi! My name is Kelly, and in addition to being a life-long dog lover, I have had experience dog-sitting and dog-walking for over 5 years. I learned how to love and care for dogs from my first childhood pet, a one-eyed poodle named Sushi, who was a part of my family for thirteen years. Activities that I would rather do with a dog: - Hiking - Walking & Jogging - Playing sports (fetch is the best!) - Driving with the windows down - Having a dance party - Sunbathing at the beach - Watching "Friends" reruns - Sleeping :) My current job is on a hybrid schedule - I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and I commute to the office Tuesdays through Thursdays. My evenings and weekends are open and free to check-in with your pups! I live in a pet-friendly building and can accomodate a crate in my apartment if needed. I also have a spare tile bathroom where a pee pad can be placed. Unless otherwise directed, I typically leave a bowl of water out at all times in case your doggo gets thirsty. In my client's homes, I aim to keep things tidy and make notes of each visit to let you know how I spent the time with your pup!
About: Greetings! I'm the ultimate dog lover, and can't wait to run, jump and play with your pooch! I am relatively new to the LA area; I moved here after the Maui fires. I have loads of personal and professional references, and will take the upmost BEST care possible of your doggo. Belly rubs, treats, handshakes, tricks, fetch.... and those puppy eyes! I can't wait to meet your favorite furry friend. I live walking distance to the Los Angeles State Historic Park, and I am a working artist. I have been housesitting and dog sitting for a local family for over two years. I love being outside, and gardening fresh food. I'm a generally positive person, and love the energy that animals can provide us with. I'm a working artist, so my schedule is very flexible! I live in a 1600 sq ft. live/work studio and work out of my home. I just love animals, and treat them with respect and care. I've worked for many families over the years; all of which have become my dear friends.
About: I’ve spent my life around pets, growing up with dogs and cats and spending over 6 years as a dog sitter. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities, including those who might be a little nervous or difficult. I have experience with senior pet care, providing a calm, supportive environment tailored to older dogs’ needs — including medication management, slow walks, and lots of gentle attention. With Pups I have plenty of playful energy for them! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, and I always make sure to tailor it to the needs of each pet I look after. While my schedule varies, I prioritize my time to ensure the pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just cuddling, I make sure to keep a balanced routine that keeps them happy and healthy. I also adjust based on any specific requests from pet owners to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well-cared for. When pet sitting at a client's home, I prioritize safety by following all their rules and routines. I create a comfortable environment, ensuring pets are secure, well-fed, and happy. I also keep the space tidy and respect any specific instructions given by the pet owner. To keep them updated, I send plenty of photos, giving them peace of mind while they’re away.
“Mark is incredibly thoughtful, punctual, and communicative. He let us know when he was on the way to our place and gave comprehensive report cards for Nori.

Christina was absolutely amazing with our fur baby! She was so understanding of our needs and made sure our pup was well cared for every step of the way.

SHES AWESOME!! Was able to help me and jump in same day. Took apollo on a 1.5 mile walk in 30 mins and more importantly apollo had lots of fun. Extremely recommend
Madeleine took care of my 85lb, two and half year old German Shepherd. I felt very confident in their ability to care for my energetic and enthusiastic pup. Madeleine took Barb on three walks while I was out of town to cover times that my partner wasn’t available to walk Barb. I am pretty nervous about other people walking Barb because she is so big and at times difficult to handle, but I felt 100% comfortable with Madeleine walking Barb. Barb absolutely loved Madeleine and I will definitely hire Madeleine again in the future!
