“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“This is our second time having our dog Coco with Sonia and her daughter and we couldn't be more grateful for all the love and comfort they provided for her. There wasn't a second that we doubted that Coco would be in the utmost care with them. Thank you so much, Sonia. We appreciate you so much!!”
“Excellent overnight stay! Our dog Tiki was well cared for, happy, and comfortable. Great communication and a very positive experience overall. Would definitely use again. Highly recommend Patricia and Tyler!”
“Moose (4yr old male goldendoodle) always has a great time under the care of Maritza. Martitza is gentle with Moose and provides me with updates and pictures/videos throughout the day. Moose gets to relax and play with other pups and is always meeting new friends. Moose and I are truly grateful!”
“I felt completely at ease leaving my dog here! From the moment we met, it was clear they truly care for the pets they host. I received regular updates and photos, which made me so comfortable while I was away. My dog came home happy, well cared for, and clearly loved. I’m so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me—will definitely book again!”
“This was my first time ever using Rover to find a pet sitter and we think we found the pit of gold at the end of the rainbow. Angela was absolutely amazing! My son was extremely worried about leaving his dog with anyone but family for the very first time. But the updates and photos we received put his mind at ease that Pluto was having a great time on his own mini vacation. Thanks to this, we were able to better enjoy our own vacation. I cannot say enough positive things about our first time with Angela and Rover.”
“Bethany and her family were complete angels for my two pups who have trauma from being attacked by two large dogs. I worry about my dogs a lot, so Bethany provided updates, photos and was quick to respond when I reached out. Best of all: my pups weren't sure that they wanted to come home when I picked them up! They were so happy and well-cared for! I couldn't have asked for more. Bethany and her family are gems and I will be coming back to them.”
“Annette took great care of our dog Milo! She made him feel right at home from the minute we arrived, and she was very communicative during the entire stay. She kept us updated with messages and photos throughout the stay, and I would definitely have Annette watch our dog again in the future and recommend her to anyone looking for dog boarding service in the LA area!”
“Blanca is amazing.Asked me if I had any questions . She was very attentive with my Blue. She made Blue feel at home. I loved that she didn’t have crates , but you can bring one if you want. I brought his bed, even though she has a designated area for the fur babies I knew Blue would be comfortable with his bed and blanket.She sent pictures and video of his day , which I loved. Blue had a great time with Bianca and her family! I can’t Thank Blanca enough! Wonderful sitter ?”
“Veronica and fam were amazing. They came in clutch on last minute emergency trip. I was sent pictures of Molly Mae assuring me that she was being well taken care of. Veronica kept me updated on their day to day and made sure Molly Mae was well and happy. Will definitely book again and will most definitely recommend.”
“I was skeptical to get a sitter for our four month puppy after further research we booked with Miguel. I am so glad we found him as he took really good care of outle little guy. He took really good care of him, I look forward to continue booking with him as we are super comfortable with the care he provided to our little guy.”
“Sabrina was absolutely wonderful! My husband and I left our Cattle dog Lucy and pug Dwight with her for one night as a test run and we will definitely be booking her again 😊. From the first messages, Sabrina was very attentive and proactive in making sure she was ready for Lucy and Dwight’s needs. When we dropped them off, her house was impeccably clean and orderly and she was very professional - you can tell she takes pride in taking good care of whoever is in her care. The entire time we were gone, she kept us updated on how Lucy and Dwight were settling in, and sent us pictures of how they were doing. Pick up was a breeze and it was clear L&D had a great time. We would highly recommend her and feel very lucky to have found her 🙏❤️”

I am extremely happy that I found such an awesome and dedicated person : } If you have a Pet and want a place for them while you are away Louisette is the person to go to GOD BLESS”
About: Hi I'm Your Pup's BFF - Trainer Jillian I’ve cared for dogs for over 12 years, starting with dog walking and pet sitting before becoming a professional dog trainer. Over the years, I’ve taught hundreds of dogs and their parents in group classes and private settings, from puppy basics and obedience to enrichment, confidence building, fitness, and more. Being a trainer has made me a better BFF and caregiver because I’ve learned how to read each pup’s body language, comfort level, personality, and little behavior cues. This helps me adjust their care in the moment, whether they need structure, enrichment, reassurance, rest, or a little extra patience. I have experience with puppies, adults, seniors, and pups who need extra support or special-needs care. Your pup will be treated like family — with love, comfort, structure, and plenty of tail wags. Your pup’s care is built into my daily routine, and I keep my bookings intentionally low-volume so every stay is personal, calm, loving, and thoughtfully planned. I’m home with the pups most of the day, and any time away is planned around their care. I do my best to follow your pup’s normal routine for meals, potty breaks, walks, rest, and bedtime so their stay feels familiar and comfortable. Please let me know before booking if your pup cannot comfortably be left alone for more than 4 hours, needs overnight reassurance, is under 8 months old, a senior, or has special needs. This helps me plan the right care setup ahead of time. Some stays may require my puppy care rate if your pup needs extra time, supervision, or hands-on support. With a trainer’s eye and a high standard of safety, I keep each stay structured, cozy, and thoughtfully supervised. Guest pups have safe rest areas with crates, pens, and/or gates for decompression and separation when needed. For their safety and your peace of mind, guest pups are kept separate from other dogs on the property unless calm, supervised hangouts have been thoughtfully approved for returning BFFs. Outdoor time includes leashed walks, sniffy outings, park time, and/or long-line enrichment when appropriate. If your pup has a familiar dog friend they love, let me know and we can talk through whether a pre-approved visit feels safe, comfortable, and doable with the schedule.
“Gary is my go to guy for dog sitting. He had been able to watch my dog on last minute notice and they always come home happy. He is also very chill and flexible. Highly recommend!”
“Joyce was great with our doggies. They seemed to love their stay and interacted well with her dogs. She sent photos and videos everyday to keep us updated. Highly recommend!”
“He is incredibly attentive, responsible, and caring. I could tell that my furry friend was in good hands right from the start. They went above and beyond to ensure my dog's comfort and happiness throughout the stay. I highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch pet care.”

Miguel was great! He was thorough from the beginning asking all the important questions to understand my dog and to make my dogs stay a good one. He also requested a visit prior to the stay so that I can see where Sandi would be staying and to introduce Sandi to the space so that it would make it easier for her when I dropped her off. Overall a great stay. I felt very comfortable and Miguel kept me informed via messages and photos throughout her 5 day stay. Will definitely be back!
Im so glad I chose Lianna. Not once did I feel worried about my babies because after I met her she mad me feel calm and secure about leaving them with her. I got pictures and updates daily, more than I wanted haha that's how comfortable I felt leaving them with her! Thanks again Lianna I will definitely be calling you again if you'll have them!!!
I left my little Yorkie, Kash Money with Tamra for 5 days while I was on vacation. Kash has never been boarded before, so I was very nervous about leaving him. He also struggles with anxiety and doesn’t like being alone. Tamra was wonderful. She kept me updated on how he was doing, let me know when he ate, and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout his stay. In every picture, Kash looked happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She reassured me that everything was going well, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Kash has special feeding and bathroom instructions, and Tamra was able to accommodate all of his needs without any issues. Most importantly, he was safe, happy, and clearly received plenty of attention and care. I would definitely book with Tamra again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter.
This is our second time having our dog Coco with Sonia and her daughter and we couldn't be more grateful for all the love and comfort they provided for her. There wasn't a second that we doubted that Coco would be in the utmost care with them. Thank you so much, Sonia. We appreciate you so much!!
Shannon was amazing! She really showed interest in taking care of our puppy. Gave great suggestions and sent daily pics and videos. She was knowledgeable and we felt comfortable in her home. I highly recommend Shannon if you need someone to watch your pets! Will definitely reach out to her again when we need her to watch our dog. Thank you again Shannon !
We were nervous to leave our baby with someone other than our parents but he had a great time and Ness sent pictures and let me know he was doing great. By the end of trip I was nervous he wouldn’t want to come home because of how happy he looked with Ness and her dogs. Would definitely use again!
Mario is an incredible dog caretaker and truly one of the best I’ve ever encountered. He is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and understands how to work with them in a caring and loving way. I trust him completely with my dog’s care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone experienced, attentive, and compassionate.
Excellent in every way! Took meticulous care of our Charlie. Gave him plenty of love and he came home very happy and excited. If you are looking for someone who will love your animal like you do, Arianna is the one. You can have peace of mind when your pup is in her care. She even responded to our dog’s anxious behavior in a professional, sharp, and protective manner—we couldn’t have chosen better also given this was his first time staying away from us. Her service is above par! Thank you Ari!
We had to leave town for a family emegrgency and couldn't take our pup. It was our first time leaving him and Aarti made sure to take great care of him. She was able to take him in sooner than we thought too but she was very accomodating and I know we left him in good hands. Teddy was tired when we picked him up so I now he had a great time with all the other pups.
