“We were so happy with how well Tracy did with our two cats. Our boy kitty, who has always been exceptionally shy around guests and especially sitters, warmed up to cuddle with her very quickly. Tracy was very respectful of our space too, which has an overwhelming amount of specialized gear. We returned home to very happy, comfortable cats, who wanted to cuddle immediately, something which never has happened with sitters that we've had before. Tracy also gave very detailed updates about the goings on of both our cats as well. Highly recommended and if we are lucky, we will definitely book with her again.”

“Yessica as always is the best and so thoughtful with my pup. Even when there’s unexpected weather, she found a great way to tire my dog out and give him some enrichment. Simply the best!”

“This was my first time using Rover and I was a little nervous because I didn’t know what to expect, and Madeline was phenomenal. My dog, Swiffy, loved her immediately and she sent me thorough updates of their time together which really helped put me at ease and I was able to enjoy my event knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I would highly recommend her.”

“Lilit was wonderful. She was available at the last minute to housesit our dog, Molly. She easily befriended Molly, and made us all comfortable with her kindness and care. Molly had a great time, and we would highly recommend Lilit.”

“A huge thank you to Claire and Corey who took such loving and attentive care of Moon and Hermione. You can immediately feel their passion and kindness — our two furry friends were truly pampered. We entrust them with our little ones with complete peace of mind and full hearts.”

“I had Jacqueline stay with my baby Reggie over the weekend while I was out of town. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She really went above and beyond for Reggie with the questions she asked and long walks. Reggie also really seemed to like her and was comfortable. I also really trust her in my home while I’m gone. Highly recommend everyone book Jacqueline!”

“Ninon is our favorite dog watcher so much that we booked her twice in the month! I honestly think my dog prefers her to us. She keeps us posted all throughout and more than anything, I feel totally safe with her watching our family member.”

About: All dogs have different personalities and I enjoy getting to know each one. I’ve been trusted to dogsit for friends and family over the years and for our time together I definitely treat them as if they’re my own. My time is flexible and I’m available most days of the week if not entirely. Mornings and early evenings would be best but I can definitely work throughout mid day. I do my best to keep a keen on the whereabouts and curiosities the pet may get into. I make sure that I stay on track for any dietary conditions that are provided and if approved, give treats when necessary.

About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.

“Alexis was amazing with our kitties! We were very impressed by her attention to detail. She was great about sending us updates and pictures each day. We came home to a tidy house and happy kitties :). We will definitely be hoping she can do future stays!”

“The night before I had to leave one of our dogs got sick and Sarah did an amazing job taking care of him and our house! We would absolutely use Sarah again, highly recommend!!”

“This was the second time ever leaving my dog with someone and I was so blessed to have gotten Niki as a sitter. So grateful she available on Halloween and that she provided the absolute best care. She sent me over a dozen pics and I couldn’t be more thankful! 🙏🏼”

“Another great sit with Hannah! She is so kind to our dear animals. A very conscientious housesitter. Didn’t have to worry about a thing while we were away.”

“This is the second time Katherine housesat for our dog and she was great! Our dog is anxious and reactive to strangers so we had Katherine come for a few drop ins beforehand so our dog could get used to her. She was very patient with him and got him to trust her. During her housesit, she sent us very frequent updates and communicated well. She left our apartment very organized and even washed the bedsheets she used! Would definitely recommend and book her again.”

Ruby was awesome with our two fur babies Noah and Miso. She came by to meet us all in advance and our pups took to her right away. She followed our outline for the day to a T and communicated with us throughout our trip and sent cute photos. She is very responsible and also has a very sweet demeanor that the dogs loved. My hubby and I highly recommmend her.

Yessica was an excellent house/dog sitter for our two little doggies who can get anxious and do best when they get to stay at the house. She gave great two-to-three times a day updates along with pictures and videos - showing how happy and relaxed the dogs were with her! Yessica was very respectful of our house and left everything in pristine condition. This was our first time using her, but we will definitely be using her again for our overnight trips.

Jackie was so amazing with our dog Moxie. She stayed at our house for three days while we were out of town and everything went perfectly! She sent us so many great updates and was such a joy to have over. She’s respectful and tidy and clearly very caring. We’re absolutely going to keep having Jackie watch our pup. Queen!!

Lisa is so attentive and excellent at communication! She took great care of my new dog Blossom while I was out of town. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a sitter and wants complete peace of mind that your pet will be not just taken care of but treasured!

We were so lucky to find Sarah to watch our challenging dog. She approached our meet and greet with patience and gave our dog the opportunity to show how sweet he could be with a few test drop ins to try each other out. We then left them alone for a weekend and were thrilled to hear that everything went well and got amazing and funny pictures out of it. Great communicator and very thoughtful!

We’ve been utilizing Jennifer to housesit and watch our dogs while we’re out of town for years! Between a high energy German Shepard and fragile old Chihuahua mix, she manages to provide for both with ease and lots of love and they seem so happy and at peace when we return. Shes a great communicator and keeps our house looking just like we left it. I highly recommend Jennifer for any and all ages, breeds, needs.

We are so lucky to have found Beta!! They were able to make a connection with our anxious pup right away and totally put us at ease. They were kind, communicative, and left our apartment in perfect condition. Through the pictures Beta sent, we could tell that our pup was well taken care of and happy. We look forward to working with Beta again and wholeheartedly recommend them!!
