“I reached out to Nicole last minute about watching my dog over the weekend because my original sitter had to leave town, and she was so quick to respond and was able to watch him. My dog is full of energy and when I picked him up after a weekend with her, he was the most tired I have seen him. It's safe to say he had a great time at her house and with the other dogs. I cannot wait to use Nicole again this weekend!”
“The only difficult part of writing this review is finding enough good things to say about Elena. Every interaction, from my first communication to picking up Puck after his stay, conveyed both a love of animals and professionalism. We met first in a local park for a meet and greet, where Elena and I chatted and her daughter played with Puck. I felt really comfortable with Elena’s easy manner and the questions she asked to ensure that Puck would be happy with them. I left in confidence when I dropped Puck off, and the photos she sent made it clear that Puck was happy and well cared for. Her daughter makes for a wonderful added bonus; Elena told me when I picked him up that her daughter made a fort for them, and it was clear in the pics that Puck received lots of play time with his favorite toys. When I picked up Puck after his stay, he was of course happy to see me, but not overcome with nervousness or anxiety. I could see that he felt safe and loved in Elena’s home. When I arrived home, he slipped right back into normal routines without needing decompression time. Thank you, Elena, for providing Puck with a warm and loving home-away-from-home.”
“Boarding our two dogs with Susana was a wonderful experience. Our previous boarding/sitting situation changed and was no longer viable right as we were coming up on a 2 week trip overseas, so we were scrambling at the last minute to try to find someone we felt we could trust to watch them. Susana really went the extra mile to help us feel comfortable, including doing a video chat with us, showing us her home and backyard, and telling us about her experience as a sitter. While we were away, she sent us pictures a couple of times per day and kept us updated on what the pups were up to and how they were doing. When they weren't eating a lot (which happens with these two when they are staying somewhere new) she offered up some suggestions. I really appreciated that she checked in with us before just doing something, because Luke has a sensitive digestive system and there are lots of things that can upset his stomach which is no fun for him or the humans who are taking care of him. She also offered to give them a bath right before we returned - and I cannot even say how much we appreciated that! They always want to cuddle with us for like two solid days after they come home from a long trip, and having them clean and smelling good makes that such a wonderful experience. The dogs seemed like they had a great time and lots of fun, and they were well taken care of. We could really tell the family loved having them stay. They will definitely be staying with Susana again on a future trip 🙂”
“Melissa is so sweet toward our little Rocket boy. The moment I met her with the meet and greet and knew she was perfect for him. She communicates easily and efficiently. Will use her again in the future! Rocket loved her!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Tiffany & her husband. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to make sure my fur baby felt safe, loved, and cared for while I was away. Not only did they follow every instruction perfectly, but they also took extra time to give my pup walks, pool-time , and plenty of affection. Thank you again! 🐶 🐾”
“We feel so lucky to have found Weihui! We unexpectedly needed a last minute sitter for a week long trip and grateful to have found such a loving, responsible and kind person. Weihui and John provide a wonderful home environment and are so welcoming and accommodating. Our dog adjusted quickly and became attached to Weihui immediately. I believe it's because she is so loving, patient, understanding and has a way with dogs. He trusted her and never left her side. I'm glad our little guy also had two good friends there, Milo and Molly, to spend his time with. Weihui provides daily updates, pictures and videos which we absolutely loved receiving. My kids looked forward to getting the messages and photos each day. It gave all of us comfort and peace of mind since we were away so long. I would absolutely recommend Weihui and use her pet sitting services again. I trust her 100% and very thankful for her taking such good care of our dog and spoiling him with so much love and attention.”
“Tina is a great person and wonderful pet sitter! She took very good care of our senior dog, Sammy. She sent us daily updates and pictures/videos, sometimes 2 times a day. Thank you Tina for taking great care of Sammy.”
“Nune cared for our yorkie for about 11 days this summer. Her thoughtfulness, attentiveness, and carring approach were clearly evident. Excellent experience. We'll book with her again for sure.”
“Laura took great care of my dog for 10 days. He can be a bit anxious when first separating from me, but he was able to relax after the first day. Her frequent updates and photos also helped me to relax because I knew he was in good hands.”
“Alexis & Melisa were incredibly kind. They took care of our dog and he loves them so much. During the meet and greet my dog felt at ease which helped us trusting them without any worry. They kept updating about what my dog is doing and kept sending pictures and videos. My dog loved staying with them. Thank you Alexis and Melisa for hosting our dog. I recommend them for your dog.”

“Thankfully, Miranda helped us out last minute with taking care of our pup. She responded quickly and gave us updates and pics while we were out of town. Sasha had a good time making new friends! 😍”
About: I’m an animal communicator with a deep, intuitive connection to animals — I don’t just care for your pets, I actually listen to them. I’ve spent my life alongside dogs of all temperaments, sizes, and needs, including my own two girls, Daisy and Chloe. I understand animal behavior, body language, and emotional wellbeing on a level that goes beyond feeding and walks. Senior pets, anxious dogs, and strong-willed characters are my specialty. Your fur family will be safe, seen, and genuinely loved while you’re away. I’m currently available full time through mid-September, making this a great time to book! After that I take on seasonal evening work Thursday through Sunday, so I’m still available for daytime care and drop-ins year round. I’ll always be upfront about my schedule so you can plan with confidence. My home is warm, relaxed, and animal-friendly with a fenced yard. We did hospice for a number of dogs and cats from 2014 to 2025, so we installed Life Proof floors and have furniture to accommodate the older ones. My two dogs, Daisy and Chloe, are social, dog-park regulars who welcome new friends easily. I have crates available for large dogs if needed.
“Great first experience leaving our baby! We got lots of pics throughout the week that made us feel at peace knowing he was having fun. Our pup had a great time and came back tired! Highly recommend them! Thanks again!”
“Walley took great care of my two fur babies. This was my first time to use Rover and Walley and I couldn't be happier with the service. Walley provided updates everyday and so caring, that it shows and I really appreciate it. I will definitely use him again for any of my boarding needs,”
About: I’ve been a loving dog owner for over 13 years and currently have two dogs of my own. One of them has been with me since 2013, when I brought him home as a puppy, so I’ve experienced every stage of raising and caring for a dog—from puppyhood to adulthood. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. A family member works a hybrid schedule and is home regularly, so your pet will have plenty of company and won’t be left alone for long periods of time. I’m also able to provide regular attention, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. 🐾❤️ I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home where pets can feel relaxed and cared for. I’m attentive to their surroundings, routines, and individual needs, and I always prioritize their safety and well-being. My goal is for every pet to feel at home while they’re in my care. 🐾❤️
“Anjali was absolutely amazing with my little Lucy. Since it was my first time using her to board Lucy I was nervous but she put my mind at ease by sending pictures throughout the day and first thing every morning. It was so reassuring to see Lucy feeling comfortable under her care. Anjali’s attentiveness and regular updates made all the difference. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. I’ve already decided Lucy will definitely be returning to Anjali’s care. Highly recommend her services to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter.👍”
“Michelle was fantastic! She took care of our Maxwell for 4 days while we were out of town. Right off the bat when we first met her and her husband we got an excellent first impression. She is very warm and friendly and genuinely cared about our dog, she was fantastic about keeping us informed on his day and sending lots of pictures. We never worried about him and knew he was well taken cared of and happy. I highly recommend her and we look forward to having her watch our Maxwell again soon.”
“We had a great experience with Ryan (& Abbey). We are searching for a regular sitter for our very timid pup and set up an over night stay to test the waters. Ryan’s communication was excellent throughout. We received messages, picture and video updates keeping us in the loop as to how our Biscuit was doing. This helped put us at ease during this stressful time of transition between sitters. We greatly appreciate the care Biscuit received. We’ll be booking again”
“Ivy took care of our dog Ellie in her home, even with all the particular dog needs. It was great not to have anything to worry about while we were cruising. I would use Ivy again in a heartbeat.”

I would absolutely recommend Kristen to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate dog sitter!

95% of sitters in Castaic can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Castaic home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Castaic.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Castaic sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog.

Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
