About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I have experience with walking, boarding, sitting, training, grooming and more. Though the majority of my professional experience revolves around dog walking, watching, and training, I also am very familiar and fond of cats. Currently I have one senior Shih Tzu named Marcus, he’s been with me since he was 6 weeks old and is now turning 13 in August. The love and devotion I have for my pup is the same I have for every animal I encounter, I am very passionate about providing the same level of care Marcus receives to each pet I am trusted with. Currently I work hybrid remote and on site as an interior designer. My flexible schedule allows plenty of time to service my fellow pet parents! Pets are allowed to roam freely in my home but I am happy to accommodate crate trained animals as well. My small dog loves company, he is very playful and friendly. As for sittings at my clients homes I follow all instructions thoroughly ensuring that your pet stays at ease, on schedule and full of happiness until your return.
“Great experience! Brendan was punctual, followed all my instructions, and kept me updated with photos of Bonnie. He was patient with her, which I really appreciated. Would definitely book him again!”


“Cathy totally took care of my little ones while I was away for the weekend. She went above and beyond making sure they got food, meds, cuddles & took good walks. She even helped to keep my senior pup clean, dry & comfy. She’s communicative & kept the house in good shape too. Definitely working w/ her again.”

“Brandy was absolutely amazing with Joker! From the moment we connected, she was warm, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease leaving him in her care. She kept us updated with photos + messages throughout his stay, and it was so reassuring to see how happy, comfortable, and well cared for he was. It was clear that Brandy genuinely treated Joker like one of her own, and that meant so much to us. When returning back, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly had a wonderful time - not skipping a beat! We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you, Brandy, for taking such great care of our boy! We absolutely booked again as soon as needed and highly recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring.”

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for friends :) and family for over 9 years. I am comfortable handling all dogs, cats & and even bunnies!!! I truly love them all! I believe man’s best friend deserves plenty of love, attention, and care. :). I understand that busy schedules can sometimes make it hard to give pets all the time they need, and I’d love to help provide that extra support. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, walks, cuddles, or companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently back in school full-time pursuing another degree, and when I’m not in class or studying, you’ll usually find me outside enjoying the sunshine. I have fond memories of working for a family friend as a dog walker during my undergraduate years, and now that I’m back in school as a postgraduate student, I’d love the opportunity to help fellow pet owners again. I’m very dependable, detail oriented, and a strong rule follower who appreciates clear instructions and routines. I will carefully follow your pet care guidelines to make sure your pups stay safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care. I’m also mindful about respecting your home and ensuring both your dogs and cats are well cared for every step of the way.
“Maria is Long Beach's finest! She goes above and beyond to ensure my dog is socialized, safe, and gets the exercise he needs while in her care. Not only is she in the know about all of Long Beach's dog parks, she's a great communicator when it comes to updating you on your pet's stay. Maria is someone I trust with my precious pup and home. Her many years of experience combined with her genuine interest in the well being of pets ensure that with her services, you're going to be a return customer. Thanks, Maria!!”

“Tina was wonderfully kind and patient with my pup Toshi this week. She has a very good reputation among my peers, and I felt comfortable with Toshi in her expert care. I was treated to detailed attention to Toshi and to her environment during walks with notes and support. Thank you so much Tina! Looking forward to future visits!”


About: I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my determination, admiration, and respect for all. I take all comments and concerns as a growing opportunity for my own experience and also to better the experience of your pets. I work graveyard 5 days a week, and I find myself wanting to detach and find comfort in another opportunity as well as keeping my original job. I am good with communication and will always find a way to work around my schedule, compromise, while also taking consideration of the owners schedule. I will first make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their presence and asking the owners about their personality and what the pets routine is throughout the day/night. I am a list person and will always make sure to check all the boxes as needed. While also developing a kind friendship with your pet.

Here's why I highly recommend Jessica’s :Professionalism and Reliability: she was punctual, dependable, and incredibly professional from our first interaction. It was clear that they take their role seriously and with the utmost responsibility.Communication: Excellent communication before, during, and after each walk.

About: **About Me** Hello, pet parents! My name is Zarah, and I've had the joy and privilege of growing up surrounded by animals. With a dad who was a veterinarian, my love for pets started young and continued to grow through the years. For the past decade, I was a devoted dog mom to my beloved Luna Lovegood, who sadly crossed the Rainbow Bridge earlier this year. **Why I'm Here** The loss of Luna has left a paw-shaped hole in my heart, and while she can never be replaced, I'm looking to heal by extending my love and care to your furry family members. I offer more than just a service; I offer a home filled with love, attention, and compassion. **Services Offered** I have an incredibly flexible schedule that allows me to cater to your pet's specific needs. Whether your dog is big and active or small and cuddly, I have a comfortable space and a loving environment for them. - **For Bigger Dogs**: My partner is a fitness enthusiast and would love to bring your high-energy pup on daily runs to keep them happy and healthy. - **For Smaller Dogs & Cats**: I'm all about those cuddles and playtime! We'll make sure they get all the love they deserve while you're away. - **Beach Walks for All**: We're lucky enough to live just a short car ride away from the beach , so if your pet enjoys the sand and surf, beach walks are a definite option! **Why Choose Me** When you choose me, you're not just getting a pet sitter; you're getting a whole family of animal lovers devoted to making your pet's stay as comfortable and fun as possible. I'll provide regular updates, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in good hands. We are a pet sitting tag team. You will have both Ray and I watching your furry loved one. How My Schedule Fits Yours I work remotely as a Product Designer, which means I have the flexibility to be home and attentive to your pet’s needs throughout the day. While I do have regular working hours from Monday to Thursday, my presence at home ensures your furry friend will never feel lonely. Evenings during the weekdays are generally open, offering ample time for walks and social time. During weekends, I’m committed to working on startup projects but my partner and I are often home and available for extended activities like beach walks or runs for bigger dogs. While there might be occasional evenings when we’re out, it’s rare for us to be away for an entire day. Rest assured, we can work around schedules to ensure your pet receives the best care possible, keeping them happy and giving you peace of mind. afety, Trust, and Environment When it comes to taking care of your pets, creating a safe and comfortable environment is my top priority. Here’s what you can expect: • Home Setting: We live in an open loft that we own, which provides a spacious and inviting area for your pet to roam and relax. Due to the open nature of our living space, we limit our care to 1-3 dogs at a time to ensure each pet receives the attention they deserve. • Outdoor Activities: While we don’t have a backyard, we make up for it with frequent walks and outdoor activities. Please note that our setting is best suited for dogs that are properly trained; if a dog is incontinent, this won’t be an ideal environment due to the lack of a backyard. • Aquariums and Fish: We’re also home to a few finned friends. If your dog has never interacted with aquariums, we’ll make sure to supervise their initial reactions to ensure everyone’s safety. • Personal Comforts: We have ample space for dog beds, toys, and any other comfort items your pet needs to feel at home. Feel free to bring anything that would make their stay more familiar and comfortable. • Safety Measures: While we offer an open space, the safety of your pet is our utmost priority. Rest assured, we take necessary precautions to ensure your pet is secure at all times. Your trust is vital to us, and we commit to keeping your pet safe, comfortable, and happy during their stay. With frequent updates and open communication, you’ll always know how your pet is doing.
“Kayla was great with my rambunctious Dalmatian! She ensured to tire her out each walk. I received several photos and a detailed description each time. She even asked before treating my pup to a pup cup, which I thought was very thoughtful. I would definitely use her in the future!”

Gabby helped us last minute over a holiday weekend with our dog Frankie. She was incredibly sweet and professional, flexible and communicative! We felt great leaving Frankie in her hands, even during the worst weekend of the year for dogs (fireworks!). We will definitely be working with her again!

Caitlin was friendly, professional, and an excellent communicator throughout the entire experience. She kept me updated and made me feel confident that my dog was in great hands. What really stood out was that after the walk was completed, she went above and beyond by returning to my house to turn on the air conditioning for my dog after I realized I had forgotten. That level of care, thoughtfulness, and reliability is hard to find. I truly appreciated her kindness and attention to detail, and it gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was being cared for by someone so responsible. I would absolutely book with Caitlin again and recommend her to anyone looking for a dog walker.
