Pet Boarding Hawthorne

“Our dachshund Willa stayed with Christine for 1 week and it was the first time our dog was away from home. Christine provided excellent care and I knew from the moment we met that Willa would be in great care. When we picked up Willa she was happy and content. She continued to be happy while at home which indicates that Willa was comfortable and well taken care of in Christine’s home. We appreciate all your patience and for sending pictures of Willa and your cute dog together. Thank you again for providing Willa with the best care!”

“I had a fantastic experience with Andrew while he watched my dog for the week. Andrew truly cares about the dogs he looks after. He was very considerate of our dog’s needs and extremely responsible throughout her stay. She got in plenty of walking time, which she loves. It was great to hear how well she got along with his dogs and he sent picture everyday and kept us informed of her experience. It made me feel more at ease knowing she was in such a comfortable and friendly environment. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again.”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats my entire life and genuinely enjoy building a connection with each pet I meet. I’m responsible, attentive, and patient, and I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, meals, companionship, or simply some extra love while you’re away, I’ll make their comfort and well-being a priority. I’ll follow your instructions carefully, respect your pet’s routine, and provide regular updates so you can feel confident knowing they’re in caring hands. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and right at home. Pet care is a natural fit for my daily routine, and I’m available full-time to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. With a flexible schedule, I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and keeping your pet comfortable in their normal routine. I understand how important consistency and reliable care are, especially when you’re away. I’m happy to work around your pet’s individual schedule and provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are always my top priorities. Having cared for dogs and cats my entire life, I understand how important it is to create an environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and cared for. I have a secure, fenced-in yard where dogs can safely enjoy some fresh air and playtime. I also have a small Havanese who loves having a furry friend around and can provide friendly companionship for dogs who enjoy being around other pets.

“Jessica was wonderful! Very responsible, flexible and she left my house spotless! My two shy rescue kitties quickly warmed up to her and spent the 2 weeks cuddling and playing with Jessica. Highly recommend!”

“Absolutely Incredible Dog Sitter! We couldn’t be happier with the care our Lia received while we were away. Maxine kept us updated which only confirmed that she was having a great time and was so well taking care off. We can’t thank her enough for providing such loving care. We’ll definitely be booking again in the future!”

“Monica took excellent care of Lucy and was very kind about sending us fun pictures of Lucy to let us know what Lucy was doing each day and to see how contented and happy she was. We highly recommend Monica!!”

Frederic L.

“I was super nervous about leaving my Kenzo. It was the first time we did a vacation without him. Evan made me feel comfortable. He sent updates and pictures. My dog was whining when he saw Evan go inside so that’s a plus. I will definitely book Evan again when needed.”

Marcia V.

“We were so grateful to find Richard before a week long trip to Iceland. Riley had a great place to stay with a big, fenced in back yard and lots of love and play. He had a few puppy friends to play with, but he doesn't take too many dogs at a time so it wasn't overwhelming for our only-child pup. I highly recommend him!”

About: Hi! I'm Jenn, an animal lover based offering attentive, reliable care for your dogs and cats. As a cat owner myself, I understand the patience, routines, and little details that keep pets happy and comfortable. I've cared for dogs of all sizes: feeding, walking, playtime, and plenty of affection and I'm comfortable administering medications, so pets with special needs are always welcome. Whether your pup needs a midday walk, drop-in visits while you're away, or a cozy overnight stay in my apartment, I'll treat them with love and patience. You'll get timely updates, photos, and real peace of mind while you're away. I'm also fully bilingual in English and Spanish. ¡Hablo español, así que también atiendo con gusto a familias hispanohablantes! Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I'd love to meet you and your furry family member! I have a full time job during weekdays. With 3 on site office days and 2 remote days. I'm available weekdays after 5pm and weekends. In my home (boarding): I keep a clean, calm, secure apartment with no other resident pets, so your dog or cat has a quiet space and my full attention. I keep doors and windows secured, never leave a pet unattended in unfamiliar surroundings, and follow the feeding, walking, and medication schedule you provide. Leashes always go on before we step outside. In your home (drop-in visits & walks): I follow your instructions exactly — feeding, fresh water, litter or potty breaks, playtime, and any medications. I respect your home, lock up carefully, and leave everything as I found it. On walks, I keep dogs leashed and stick to safe, familiar routes. For every service: I send photo and video updates so you always know your pet is happy and safe, I stay reachable throughout the booking, and I always do a free meet-and-greet first. If anything ever seems off with your pet's health or behavior, I'll contact you right away and follow your emergency plan.

“Richard and Karen put our minds at ease when we left our two labs with them for a week. They sent photos every single day that reassured us that everything was good! We appreciated them going the extra mile and helping administer meds for our elderly pup as well.”

About: Reliable, attentive dog sitter offering a safe and comfortable home for your pup. I live in a pet-friendly apartment near a park, so your dog will get regular walks, fresh air, and time to unwind.

Please bring any beds, bowls, toys, etc. that your dog has at home so everything is in place for their dog vacation!

“Omar is reliable and makes it easy for us to drop and pick up. He sent pics and video everyday and my kids were very excited to see every morning. My dog is 90 plus pound Lab and seems he was very happy during his stay. Definitely come back.”

“Catherine (and family) has been so great. Our 14 month old pup loved his stay. I received daily pictures and videos and felt so calm and relaxed about leaving my dog with her, so I could enjoy my holiday. I highly recommend Catherine and I look forward to our next stay!”

Mia B.

“Freddy had another wonderful stay with our most trusted sitter. He was excited to arrive at Arianne's house and seemed to settle in immediately with the family. Arianne kept me up to date with photos and videos throughout the stay. I cannot overstate how much gratitude we have for Arianne and her family providing Freddy with a loving home while we were traveling.”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Sujaya at a meet and greet prior to booking a boarding reservation. I am glad I did. She was so lovely at the meet and greet and when I left my pup with her, it was a great decision. Sujaya was so attentive and accommodating to anything my pup needed and was extremely responsive to any questions I had. This particular boarding was because I had a family wedding to attend and I felt immediately at ease that my pup was in good hands. It was obvious that Sujaya is a natural caretaker and really went above and beyond to take care of my girl. I think my pup (Irene) did well for her first time with a new person and Sujaya was alert to her needs and wants during the stay. I will definitely book Sujaya again!! Thank you Sujaya!!”

“Janis was wonderful with Benita! She was super responsive, kept me updated, and sent videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Benita is a shy puppy, but she looked happy and comfortable with Janis. I really appreciated her care and would definitely recommend her!”

“She took excellent care of my pup and was very accommodating with the pickup/dropoff times.”
