“Madison is a lifesaver — I sent a request late in the evening for a dropoff the following morning and she confirmed within a few minutes! She was consistently responsive, flexible, and friendly. She also sent pictures within a few hours after dropoff which gave me peace of mind that my pup was settling in well, and most importantly he was happy and healthy when I picked him up. I would book with Madison again!”


“This is my second time booking with her and she’s amazing. She kept me updated throughout the day which I loved and my pup is also excited to see her. I would definitely recommend booking with her.”

“Tiffany is a great dog sitter! She is very flexible and shows my pup all the attention he wants and needs from a human. Cloud had some last minute tummy issues and she was able to still take care of him with a certain diet and everything. I’ve booked with her multiple times now and highly recommend!”


“Sang took great care of my husky while I was out of town! She took her on long walks, explored new neighborhoods, and even treated her to puppy cups. I really appreciated the regular updates, photos, and how responsive she was throughout the entire stay. My husky came home happy and well cared for. Highly recommend Sang for anyone looking for a loving and reliable sitter!”


About: We implement comprehensive safety measures to ensure a secure and enjoyable environment for all dogs. For daycare or boarding, dogs must meet vaccinations and temperament requirements to ensure they are suitable for off-leash play. Inside the play yards, we closely supervise interactions and intervene when necessary, with staff trained to recognize signs of stress. Our facility features secure fencing, multiple gates, and doors to prevent escapes. Additionally, we sanitize with veterinary-grade disinfectant multiple times daily and use air-filtration systems, including UV disinfection technology, to remove harmful bacteria and viruses.

“My wife and I have an 11-year old dog who has high separation anxiety and we have struggled over the years to find someone who could take care of our dog due to his timid nature. We’ve tried friends, family, and various boarding places but there have always been an issue. However, Selien was able to take excellent care of our dog and he even felt comfortable enough to eat around her. It gives us great peace of mind that we have found Selien, someone we can trust with our dog moving forward.”


“Five stars! Alejandra is an amazing dog sitter! She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves dogs. My dog, Oscar, came back happy and well-exercised. I feel so lucky to have found someone we trust completely. Thank you, Alejandra, for taking such great care of Oscar.”

“Denae is fantastic! This is the second time I've booked with Denae, but the first for an overnight stay. She took great care of Goose, and sent lots of pics throughout the weekend of Goose looking happy and taken care of. We had a minor accident the day prior to her stay, but Denae was still great with her and was able to help give her antibiotics on schedule and make sure she was safe and healthy. So excited to have found her and will definitely be coming back!”


“Second time booking with Donghae and just like the first time, he has done a wonderful job. I appreciate how communicative he is and also how great he is at taking care of our precious dog. I would 100% book again as needs come up.”


About: I’ve been providing loving and reliable pet and house sitting services in Los Angeles for over 10 years. What started as helping out close friends and neighbors has grown into a true passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I only have a cat on my own but love dogs just as much! I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide range of dog breeds from Frenchies and Pomeranians to Labs and Pit mixes. No matter what their needs are, I make sure to take the best care of them! I have also had the pleasure to care for a range of cats, I love to see all of the different personalities that they have. I understand how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet in someone else’s hands. My goal is always to keep your pets happy, healthy, and comfortable, and treat them as if they were my own. I’m always happy to send regular photo updates, so you can stay connected and worry-free while you’re away. I live and work in Downtown Los Angeles, so this is also where i mainly provide my services. I work a full-time job but am flexible on hours away from home. It’s mostly remote, but i help out on site 5-6 hours about 3-4 days a week depending on what is going on each week. Since I live in the city we don’t have a yard but I am about a block from a park with a dog run as well as close to grand park. I love walking downtown. We also have a spare room in case the pet needs its own space. We’re loaded up on toys and treats for both cats and dogs.

“Justine is everything we could have hoped for. We have a 14 year old 4lb chihuahua named Kayla, who doesn’t get along with everyone and needs to be cared for delicately. Justine gave her so much love and attention, Kayla fell right in love with her, which is unusual. Justine sent us pictures/videos/updates daily. We will be using Justine again, even if it means planning around her schedule to make sure her and Kayla hang out again.”


“I had a fantastic experience with Xiaoxi. She took great care of my dog on short notice and provided regular updates throughout the process. She was truly a lifesaver! I will definitely be using her services repeatedly, as I could tell that Dallas felt very comfortable with her. It's clear that she really loves being around dogs and values their company. During a chaotic travel period, I received plenty of updates that put my mind at ease. Xiaoxi even went above and beyond by extending her services during my travel delays, and I can't thank her enough for that! I truly appreciate everything she did and will be booking with her every chance I get. Thank you so much!”


“Peiwei was amazing! My first time booking a doggy sitter since I had to go into the office, and Peiwei put me at ease right away with pictures of Mochi as soon as she took Mochi back to her place. She gave frequent updates/pictures about how Mochi was adjusting and Mochi was on medication that required frequent bathroom visits too, which Peiwei was very mindful of and took her out frequently. 11/10 would recommend and book again. Thanks, Peiwei!!”


“Yuichi was so great with my pup Rupert. He sent numerous photo updates and was very accommodating to Rupert’s supplement and medication needs as a senior dog. Rupert got along well with Yuichi’s chihuahua and the other boarders that came to stay. Would book again with no hesitation next time I’m out of town!”
