We love Lori! My sometimes-shy boy immediately opened up and felt safe with her, like they'd known each other in a past life <3. Wonderful communication from start to finish, we would absolutely love to work with Lori again! Thank you x

About: I’ve been a devoted dog owner since I was seven, caring for everything from small breeds to large dogs. I’ve also house-sat for friends and am experienced with different temperaments and dietary needs. I love spending time with pets, giving them attention, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m patient, careful, and truly treat every pet like family. I'm currently an occupational therapy doctorate student at USC. I work remotely part-time for a research lab. Outside of those commitments I am fairly flexible and available. I will take care of you and your pet’s belongings as if they are my own. I am very respectful of you and your pet’s space. I always leave the place how it was found.

About: I'm fortunate to have cared for animals since childhood and find true joy in treating others pets as my own. Family, friends and neighbors have relied on my consistency, responsibility and compassion when they need someone to look after their babies. I am very comfortable with multiple animals, senior care and challenging personalities. I am able to remain calm in chaos and understand the importance of communication. My three-year old German Shepherd mix, Pharaoh, keeps me on my toes and engaged with the latest in pet parent world! Currently in between jobs which allows me to be flexible depending on the needs of the client and their pets. While I do have my own boy dog, Pharaoh, our routine can be adjusted without issue. I will follow the exact instructions needed and am very communicative in terms of sending photos, videos and ensuring there are no disruptions to a pets routine. I have a deep understanding of how important consistency is to building trust with an animal and will do everything required to make sure both the client and their baby feel safe and at peace.

Steven is great. He took excellent care of our big girl while we were out of town. He came over beforehand and made sure he knew everything he needed to. He sent photos and updates during every visit. He was friendly and trustworthy. We'll be requesting his services again and would highly recommend him!

It was my first time using River and I am very happy I did. I found Alejandro and I am so happy I chose him to take care of my cat. Alejandro was so communicative and assured me my cat was in good hands. Not only did Alejandro feed and spend time with my cat, he went above and beyond and offered to clean his litter box which I did not know was an option. If you need someone to make sure your cat is loved while you are out of town go with Alejandro ASAP.

Lani went above and beyond for our drop in visits! The LA fires broke out while we were away, and the power went out. Lani took initiative to store our cat’s refrigerated food at her house so it wouldn’t spoil. She took excellent care of our elderly cat, administering her meds twice a day and taking care to clean up and give her cuddles. It was so comforting to know she was looking out for our cat during the craziness of the fires. Our cat was calm and happy when we returned. Will definitely book with Lani again! 😻

About: We have 2 friendly, large, high energy pups and recently decided to offer boarding after we went away for a weekend and experienced how hard it was to find great care for our girls. We hike/ take long walks daily & are happy to bring your pup along on our adventures! We are a dog-loving couple with 2 friendly dogs of our own. We are available for boarding and dog daycare throughout the week. Boarding includes a 3+ mile walk! I have a partially fenced yard & a fully enclosed patio where they can nap in the sun, plus two friendly dogs to keep your pup company and show them the ropes. We live close to great hiking areas & hike most mornings. Your dog is invited!

About: Whether it's just lounging on the couch or going for a fun walk, your dog will have my full attention. Their comfort is my number one priority. I have doggy stairs and extra beds all around the house. I work remotely so my schedule is flexible enough that I can take them for walks whenever needed. I also have a front and backyard where the doggies can sniff around or lay in the sun. :) I work from home so I can take the doggies out whenever they want and feed them whenever I’m instructed to. Very flexible schedule here. I have fenced yard and my 2 doggies are very friendly with other dogs. My dogs have doggy stairs and beds all over the house.

About: I’ve had pets since I was six and have enjoyed being a go to for family and friends fur babies when they travel. From ferocious chihuahuas to cuddly kittens, I’m open to care for all! I am self employed so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to walk, sit with and check in on pets. My favorite pups moved out of town so I’m looking forward to spending time making new pet friends. I am always respectful of the rules when house and pet sitting and want to be sure pet parents see me as someone they can trust.

About: As a pet owner myself, I'm all about making sure you and your pet feel comfortable and cared for! I have experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. For pets with special needs, I attend to their specific health requirements, ensuring they receive the gentle care and attention they deserve. I am also very diligent about sending pictures and videos during my visit, so you can rest assured that your pet is safe, happy and properly cared for! My passion for animals drives me to create a loving and engaging environment for your pets, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I take the time to get to know each pet's personality, preferences, and routines, making every visit feel like home. I currently work from home and make my own schedule so I have plenty of time and flexibility to work with your schedule, between the hours of 8am-8pm. If you have special requests outside of these times, feel free to reach out and see if I can accommodate you. I understand that your pet's safety is a #1 priority. Because of this, I will follow all best practices with respect to safety and will diligently follow any specific and special instructions that the pet's owner may leave me with.

About: Puppy, rescue, senior, and end-of-life. I've been there for dogs at every stage of life, and I'll bring that same care and attention to yours. I adopted my dog Winston at 12 weeks old. My other dog Kevin was a high-energy shelter rescue at 11 months with no house training. And my late dog George, who came into my life through my wife, was with me through a serious illness, including daily medications, until he passed. That experience taught me patience, consistency, and how to genuinely read what a dog needs. I also rescued my cat from the streets and have cared for him for 17 years, so cat owners can feel just as confident leaving their pets in my hands. Whether your pet is a wild puppy, a relaxed senior, or somewhere in between, they're in experienced and loving hands. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting on most days, including weekday mornings, afternoons, and early evenings. For in-home pet sitting, I'm happy to work around your travel plans with a little advance notice. While I don't offer in-home boarding or daycare at my place, I treat every client's home with the same care and respect I'd want shown in my own. I'm friendly and professional in how I communicate and how I carry myself around your pets and neighbors. During every visit I'll follow any instructions you may have, whether that's feeding routines, leash preferences, off-limit areas, or anything else that matters to you. After each visit you'll get a confirmation that everything was completed, along with photos and any notes worth sharing, so you're never left wondering how things went.

Kenya was so great with our two cats!! Punctual, communicative, and with attention to detail. She even took the time to play with them which put our minds at ease about leaving them alone for the long weekend. We will definitely be booking her for future trips!!!

Gissell is a true gem! She is hard working, reliable, flexible, and a good communicator. Gissell has been caring for my 3 large-sized dogs for a while through easy times and hard times (e.g., when my senior dog was seriously ill, when I foolishly fostered 8 puppies). I couldn’t have asked for a more trustworthy, compassionate person to look after my family. Hire Gissell, and you won’t regret it!
