“Second time booking Jane. The cats are always happy to see her! I appreciate Jane's flexibility and offer of alternate options when the original schedule planned hit a snag.”
“Marissa was amazing! The pups loved her! She took great care of our two Frenchies while my family and I were out of town for a graduation. She sent us great pictures of them and they were so excited to see her on the days that she came. We will definitely be rebooking with her again.”
About: My family has had dogs my entire live and I grew up with shepherds and retrievers, so I’m confident taking care of dogs of all sizes! Now that I live in LA, I have a (foster-fail) dog of my own, Pepper from a local rescue I used to frequently foster from. She’s a 3 year old playful gal, who loves every dog she’s met! My schedule is pretty flexible, as I currently work part-time from the office (3-4 hrs on the week days). I am happy to communicate through text to figure out for what works best for you and your dog. As I work from office part time (3-4 hrs on the weekdays) so I’m around most of the day to give your dog some extra attention and pop out for potty breaks and walks with your pup frequently.. I have a dog of my own Pepper, so we are already going out for walks or going to the park during the day. Plus she makes for a great play mate! I live with my adopted dog Pepper in apartment building in the midst of a lovely walking neighborhood where your dog could get plenty of exercise. We love going up to the baseball field for off leash time when possible! Let me know what your dog enjoys doing and we’ll make sure to incorporate it!
About: I have grown up with dogs since I was 5 years old caring for 3 dogs till old age! I have experience caring for senior dogs and have demonstrated patience in caring for my senior dog until he was 19. I am currently job seeking, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to take care of dogs! I am free mostly in the daytime but can adjust if needed. I am a responsible sitter and will ensure to be communicative on how to navigate caring for your dog in your home setting where your dog is comfy and safe.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for more than 30 years, both my own and those belonging to friends and family. Over time, I became the person people call when they need someone they genuinely trust with their animals and their home. For years, pet sitting has simply been part of my life. I’m the go-to sitter for many of my friends, and I’ve reached the point where I want to make caring for animals a much more significant part of what I do. I’ve cared for pets through every stage of life, from healthy, energetic animals to seniors with complex medical needs. The longest I cared for one pet was 15 years. That experience taught me how important it is to know what is normal for an individual animal and to notice when something changes. That is a big part of how I approach pet sitting. I pay attention. I learn their routines, how they communicate, what makes them comfortable, and what stresses them out. I notice changes in appetite, energy, behavior, bathroom habits, breathing, vocalization, and the other small things that can tell you an animal is not feeling quite right. I’m also very comfortable following detailed care instructions. I have experience with special diets, oral medications, senior-pet care, behavioral issues, and more involved care routines. I understand that when an animal has specific needs, consistency matters. At the same time, I don’t believe every pet needs to be handled the same way. Some animals want constant companionship. Others prefer a little distance until they decide they trust you. Some want long walks and lots of play. Others are happiest sleeping nearby while you leave them alone. I don’t force interaction. I let the animal tell me what kind of relationship they are comfortable having with me. My goal when house sitting is to keep their life as normal as possible while you’re gone. That means maintaining their feeding, walking, play, medication, and sleep routines as closely as I can, while giving them the level of companionship they are used to. I also send regular updates and photos so you don’t have to wonder how things are going at home. And I take the “house” part of house sitting seriously. I treat someone else’s home with the same respect I would want someone to show mine. I keep the space clean and orderly, water plants, bring in mail and packages, take care of the ordinary household tasks that still need to happen while you’re away, and handle minor issues when I reasonably can. The feedback I hear most often is that the animals are happy and relaxed when their people return, and the house looks great. That’s exactly what I want. I want you to come home to happy pets, a cared-for home, and the feeling that while you were away, everything was in good hands. I work mostly from home, with the occasional job taking me out of the home for a few hours at a time. Sometimes as little as 2 hours, and sometimes as much as 8. I tend to schedule all my work and pet-sitting around each other so there's no conflict. For puppies, I won't leave them for more than an hour at a time, as they need more bathroom breaks. For smaller dogs, I try to cap it at 3-4 hours. Larger dogs can handle me being away for about 6 hours, and cats I can leave for up to 8. I follow each pet’s established routine closely and let trust develop at their pace. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health, keep the home secure and orderly, and handle basic household needs while you’re away. My goal is simple: happy pets, a cared-for home, and no surprises when you return.
About: I've had my pets for most of my life. I've owned dogs that are small, medium-sized, and even large! I believe our furry friends need some daily activity and outdoor time in order to live their best lives! I'm available during the week from the morning until the early afternoon so my schedule is quite flexible Monday through Friday. I do not walk on the weekends. I primarily walk dogs and care for cats in their home, I do not have the space to pet sit a dog in my home currently. I make sure to ask my clients how they take care of their pet and use the same approach to make your furry friend feel relaxed.
“Michaela came over on extremely short notice and took care of my pup when I had to deal with a family emergency. Super flexible when timing changed and took excellent care of Ernie. It was a relief to know all was ok at home while dealing with a stressful situation.”
“We loved having Daisy watch our boy. She was super responsive and easy to communicate with. You can tell that she is a responsible human. She took the care to walk and feed G while we were out on New Year’s Eve!”
“Molly was super friendly and easy to work with. She was able to do a virtual introduction and check in on our cat with a very quick turnaround after we forgot to find a sitter during a vacation. So grateful!”
About: I’ve been around and cared for pets my entire life! I have two dogs of my own, Louie, a Cockapoo, and Tanner, a Chihuahua, as well as a guinea pig. I’m a huge animal lover and definitely the person who has to stop and pet every dog I meet! I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat yours with the same love and care I give my own. I am currently working part time and being trained to be a Behavioral Health Technician, which is online, so I have the whole day to attend to your dog! Once I begin seeing clients, I am free 4 days of the week, but I will still have mornings and afternoons open. I live in a spacious apartment with a great, walkable outdoor area perfect for plenty of walks and fresh air! I’m happy to crate dogs if needed and will always follow your pet’s usual routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions you provide. I can also care for your pet in the comfort of their own home if that’s where they feel safest. I’ll make sure your pet gets plenty of attention and is always in a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. My dogs do not live with me at my apartment, so if your pup isn't friendly that's perfectly fine!
About: High energy dogs? I'll take them for a run around the neighborhood! I love both dogs and cats and I'd be happy to take care of either one. I'm a proud pug dad. He's reactive to other dogs so I've learned to how to look for the signs and deescalate. I've also watched cats and I feed the neighborhood cats pretty regularly. Hit me up for your sitting needs! I have a flexible schedule throughout the week so I can prioritize pet care around my day-to-day. Whether it's mornings, afternoons, or evenings, we can get a regular schedule going. I'll be doing walk-ins and walks/runs. If you have any rules or guidance for your pets I'll be happy to follow them. Rest assured, I'll have my eye on your pets the whole time!
About: I have over 15 years of animal care experience in accredited zoos, vet clinics and rescues working hands on with a variety of species. Just like people, every animal (regardless of species or breed) is a unique individual and I am committed to learning about each individual so that I can maximize their well-being. I have worked professionally with all sorts of species as a positive reinforcement trainer and caretaker: dolphins, rhinos, hippos, snow leopards, parrots, armadillos, eagles, reptiles and everything in between! I often get asked what my favorite species is to work with. Honestly, there is nothing better than the companionship of dogs and cats! However, raccoons and parrots also stole my heart. Most of my professional expertise is in positive reinforcement training; specifically, teaching animals to enthusiastically choose to participate in their own care. I also have a strong passion for geriatric care and end of life/palliative care. While working professionally with animals, in my spare time over the years I was a volunteer hospice home for non-adoptable geriatric dogs at the end of their life. I have been quoted as an animal behavior expert consultant in online publications like Woman's Day, Scary Mommy, Readers Digest and Rover.com. I also have expertise in administering medications (oral and anything that requires a needle), maintaining trained behaviors including manners, ensuring dietary restrictions are met, and more. I am now at a very fortunate point in my life where I am able to take a step back from full time work and can spend some time giving love to your fur babies when you are away. Thanks for considering me, I look forward to meeting you! I am lucky enough to be able to step away from full time work, so when I accept the responsibility of caring for your fur babies you can be assured that they are my only responsibility. I do some remote consulting on the side, but otherwise I do not have other work or family responsibilities at this time. I am a type-A personality and live by the campsite rule of leaving it in better shape than I found it. I am a former project manager which means I am organized and detail oriented. I know what questions to ask to make sure everyone is safe, happy and comfortable. You'll never find me scrolling TikTok while I am out on a walk with your pup.
“Talia was so amazing with my dog. During her drop-in visit, she was super communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos which I really appreciated. It was so nice to see how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. My dog clearly adored her and was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’d trust Talia to watch my dog anytime and I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Laura is amazing! She stepped in super last minute to take care of my boy when my friend flaked on me WHILE I was out of town. Laura is kind, trustworthy, and very patient. My dog is a bit on the shyer side and she seemed to know exactly what to do on how to gain his trust based on intuition and experience. I can’t recommend her enough and will be hiring her in the future. Thank you again, Laura! 🩷✨”

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and truly love caring for animals. I grew up with two golden retrievers, so caring for dogs has always been a natural part of my daily life.

I try to stick closely to their usual routines—meals, walks, playtime, and downtime—so they feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I make sure pets get plenty of attention and I’m always mindful of their safety and well-being. I also take great care of your home and will send regular updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are happy, comfortable, and in good hands :)

Anya was amazing! Our usual sitter had a last-minute schedule change, so we needed someone quickly, and she stepped right in. She was super communicative the whole time and kept us updated, which let us actually relax and enjoy our trip. The boys were happy and well cared for, and everything went smoothly. Her great reviews are well earned, and I'd highly recommend her to anyone. Thanks so much, Anya!
I had a lot of peace of mind leaving my two cats under Mutsumi’s care. She had quick responses and was very thorough in updating with pictures for all the pet tasks (took pictures of clean kitty litter, filled water bowls, etc). My more social cat got good play time and she always checked up on the shy/hiding cat each visit while giving the shy one space. We had an unexpected heat wave while I was away, and she was also kind enough to turn on the AC for my cats exactly as requested.
This is my first time working g with Amy. She gave me great peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. She took the time to make sure my cats were comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and I really appreciated the care and attention she provided. I would trust her with my cats again and recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful, trustworthy pet sitter. I can tell she loves my babies. Thank you Amy
10/10 recommend Courtney! She was absolutely wonderful with both of our cats! She came over for a meet and greet beforehand and was incredibly attentive throughout the weekend. One of our cats needed medication twice a day, and Courtney was always prompt, took extra time to write down instructions, and sent us updates after every visit. Our older cat, Bella, is naturally very shy and can get easily spooked. She unexpectedly swatted at Courtney (despite her being very friendly during the meet & greet), but Courtney handled the situation wonderfully! She was incredibly understanding and patient, giving Bella plenty of space and letting her warm up at her own pace throughout the weekend. We felt so comfortable knowing our girls were in such great hands. Will absolutely book Courtney again!
Gabriel was wonderful with our two Bengals! Anyone with Bengals knows they're a lot of cat: high energy, curious, and very opinionated. Gabriel handled them with patience and genuine affection, kept them entertained, and stuck to their feeding routine exactly. We got thoughtful updates and photos that made it easy to relax while we were away.
I was so relieved that Emma was available (and on such short notice) to watch our fur babes again after having taken such good care of them last visit. Emma is amazing at communicating and making sure the needs of our animals were met and exceeded. Thank you!
Paige is great with cats! Houdini is a little scaredy cat and not very social but Paige managed to win him over and I got a ton of cute pictures and videos! Paige was consistent with showing up around the same time every day, which was much appreciated. I want to say Houdini was almost upset when he saw me walking through the door! I was initially nervous with leaving Houdini but seeing how good Paige was with him the first day I was way less worried and was able to enjoy my trip knowing he was taken care of. Will be rebooking in the future!

Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
