“Noreen was great with my pup calypso. She was super tired when she got home. I was so happy she slept through the whole night! She ensured calypso got lots of play time and cuddles.”

“Leslie has been a godsend for me and my pup. Sends updates throughout the day and flexible with pick up and drop off times. Rigi always wants to hop out of the car to greet her. She is treated like a family member at Leslie's home. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.”

About: We (my husband, son and me) are a family of pet lovers! I was a dog walker for Rover a couple years ago and had excellent reviews. We are flexible to provides walks and drop-ins in the areas around Hawthorne and LMU. We have our dog, Sierra, who gets along with other dogs. Since we have 3 dogs in the home currently, we are mostly available for walks and check-ins but for an increased rate, can offer boarding. I had many pets growing up and for a period of 5-6 years I would regularly house sit for a friend who had a temperamental dog who needed medication and extra care. My experience and love of animals will ensure that your fur baby is well cared for. Like many people I am working from home these days, so I am quite flexible and would love to help those who still have to go out for work. My husband and I work together to care for dogs and cats. I work at LMU and my husband works at home in Hawthorne, so we can flexibly accommodate walks and drop-ins near those locations. We are dog lovers with lots of experience. We have a 2 year old and 3 dogs at home, so not offering boarding currently unless it’s a great offer. We can take your dogs in a safe, fun walk either with or without other dogs. We can also drop in on your dog or cat.
“Everything about Cassie's stay was great! She was worn out when i picked her up, which was exactly what i wanted! She played with Joey and Dixie all day long and had a great time. Harley was very diligent with pictures and communication and made sure i knew everything that was going on with my puppy throughout the day. Excellent stay and highly recommended!”

About: **End of year boarding price specials for the remainder of 2025!!** I’ve absolutely adored animals since I was 4yrs old. I started getting educated on animals at a young age and knew my dream was to work with animals. I started my professional career in the industry in 2017. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility for a year, then moved on to a facility for dogs and cats, which I’ve worked at since 2018. Over the years at these facilities, I’ve learned about proper care, training and grooming techniques for dogs, and care for cats. I have plenty of experience working with different breeds of dogs from the smallest teacup poodle, to the chunkiest bulldog, to the biggest Great Dane. I’ve worked with many different breeds, sizes and personalities in large daycare groups, so I’ve learned how to manage different demeanors in different settings. With cats, I understand their boundaries and don’t like to force any interaction on them, but if they are comfortable with it I give them lots of love. I’ve also volunteered at a shelter for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and rodents. At the shelter, I focused on learning how to properly care for rodents and cats. *I don’t discriminate against any pet’s breed, size, age, medical condition, etc. I treat them all with the best care.* **I am able to dispense oral medication to pets if necessary. I AM NOT CERTIFIED TO GIVE INJECTION (NEEDLE INVOLVED) MEDICATION** I work in Gardena in the afternoon-evening Mon-Fri, but typically am home or close by during most of the day and on weekends. I tend to stay local when running errands. My apartment is gated and a code or key is needed to enter the premises. We have a large grass area right out front, which is not gated. There’s plenty of grass and parks in the neighborhood to go to during walks. My apartment is on the second floor with the luxury of having the parking garage underneath me, so your pet running around the house won’t disturb anyone! I stay alert and aware of my surroundings at all times for safety purposes. I have multiple rooms and gates to separate pets when necessary (feeding, bedtime, rest breaks…etc.) My pets are flea treated regularly and stay up to date on their vaccines. **IMPORTANT NOTICE BELOW!!! In order to keep my home a healthy and clean environment for all, IF PETS ARRIVE WITH FLEAS I require a $50-$100 cleaning fee AND a flea bath may apply with a MINIMUM charge of $38/pet bathed. I HIGHLY recommend flea treatments and checking your pets for fleas BEFOREHAND to avoid additional charges. ADDITIONALLY, if your pet causes any damages to my property there will be a MINIMUM charge of $25 for repairs/replacements.**

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, having cared for both dogs and cats. I’ve also volunteered at a pet grooming facility, gaining valuable experience. In addition, I’ve raised kittens and puppies of my own and have always had wonderful, positive experiences with dogs. Caring for animals is truly my passion. I work part time and occasionally in the evenings, but I’m available most mornings when I’m not babysitting. I’m also free in the afternoons, which allows me plenty of time to walk, play with, and care for your pets. Their happiness and entertainment will always be my priority! I have a senior dog who enjoys peaceful naps and two friendly, neutered cats who get along wonderfully with other dogs. If I were to care for your pets in my home, they would be surrounded by a calm, loving environment and receive the best care and attention possible. Your pets’ comfort and well-being would always come first!
““I couldn’t be happier with the care my pet received during their stay with Tian! From the start, communication was clear and reassuring. Updates with photos and messages made me feel at ease while I was away. My dog came home happy and well cared for. It’s clear that lots of love and attention were given, along with a safe and comfortable environment. You can tell that he really love animals and treat them like their own. I would definitely recommend this service and will be booking again in the future!””

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and can’t imagine a day without them! I grew up with a loving family dog, which taught me the importance of patience, care, and understanding a pup’s unique personality. Now, as a young adult, I have my own sweet dog who is almost 2 years old. I know firsthand what it takes to keep them happy, safe, and well cared for. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, I treat every dog like my own, making sure they feel loved and comfortable while you’re away! I work from home Monday through Friday, which means I’m available throughout the day to care for your pup. From playtime to outdoor walks, I’ll be there to keep them happy, active, and comfortable whenever they need me! Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, or just some extra belly rubs, I’m always nearby to meet their needs. I also live in a safe, pet-friendly residential area with plenty of sidewalks and green spaces, making walks both enjoyable and secure. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities, and I’ll treat them like family while they’re in my care! My dog is also crate trained, potty trained and gentle.
About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family’s pets for years, and it’s become one of my favorite things to do. I’m the person everyone calls when they need someone they truly trust and the biggest compliment I get is that their pets don’t want to go home when vacation ends! I’ve cared for all kinds of personalities, from energetic pups who love outdoor time to cozy cuddle-bugs who just want companionship and a soft place to snooze. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize keeping pets happy, relaxed, and loved while their families are away. I also live very close to LAX which is convenient if you need to drop your dog (and car) while you’re away. I work from home part-time, so caring for pets blends perfectly into my daily life. I love having furry company during the day and can give frequent attention — whether that's walks, play breaks, or extra cuddle sessions. Your pet won’t be left waiting; they’ll be part of my daily routine and treated like family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, pet-friendly environment with constant supervision and a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time. I take care to follow your pet’s routine and needs closely, and I treat every animal with the same level of attention and respect as I do my own. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in a safe, caring, and trustworthy home.
“Courtney was wonderful! She was kind, professional, and gave Herbie plenty of one-on-one attention, which I really appreciate. Throughout the day, she kept me updated with details about his naps, meals, and potty breaks. I could tell he was in great hands. Herbie even made friends with another corgi today! Courtney was fantastic, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and attentive sitter!”
