About: I’ve cared for dogs of different ages and sizes, including my own two dogs, a senior and a young mutt. I’ve been trusted by family members to look after their pet’s making sure they eat well, get enough exercise and playtime. I love spending time outdoors especially with my dogs. I know the importance of having your pup out in the world not just for potty breaks but for mental stimulation as well so they can go home relax. I have a fairly flexible schedule. Early mornings, late nights, last minute bookings, weekdays or weekends with your pet will not disrupt my current routine. I understand that every dog has their own special needs to make them feel comfortable I always prioritize their safety for that. Let me know if there’s any special care your dog needs!

I’m all about making dogs feel safe, happy, and spoiled with attention—no matter their size, age, or personality.

About: I grew up with three dogs and my first job was working at a dog kennel. I ended up working there for 3 years during high school and have experience giving shots and medication to dogs. Once I moved to NYC, I started fostering puppies and ended up adopting one of them and he is the light of my life! I’d love to take care of your pup and make sure that they barely miss you! I work a remote job with flexible hours, so I have a lot of time to hang out with your pup and give them all the love! I have a porch and live right next to a nature trail, my dog is very friendly and loves to play so he’ll love the company.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have been around pets for basically my whole life. I had my dog for 16 years, so I’ve grown up learning how to care for a dog, keep up with their routine, give them attention, take them on walks, and make sure they feel loved and comfortable. I’ve also had three cats, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and know that every pet has their own personality. I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, but I’m very responsible, caring, patient, and excited to take care of other people’s pets. I’ll always follow your instructions and treat your pet like my own. I’m a full-time college student, so my schedule depends on my classes, but I have plenty of free time throughout the week. I’m hoping to use some of that time doing something I genuinely love, which is being around animals. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting depending on the day and my class schedule. I’m pretty flexible and will always be upfront about my availability. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine so they can stay comfortable. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, so I’ll always take their safety seriously. I’ll follow any instructions you give me about feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else your pet needs. I’ll make sure they’re safe during walks and visits and pay attention to how they’re acting so I can notice if something seems off. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away and can send pictures and little updates of your pet so you know how they’re doing. I know it’s nice to be able to see your pet while you’re away. I’ll give them lots of attention, patience, and love while they’re in my care.

“Shay was amazing and had such great communication with me while being out of country in Colombia he provided such piece of mind that my baby was taken care of! Rocky enjoyed his time and I look forward to rebooking Shay!”

About: I am known for my passion for taking care of dogs. For me, to know a canine is to love a canine. I have experience taking care of dogs who want to play for hours as well as couch potatoes. I also have experience caring for senior dogs with health issues. The great news is that Monday through Friday my schedule is flexible from mid-morning on, so I have plenty of time to focus on your dog. On the weekends I am available some afternoons and evenings. I have a small fenced in yard. We are a couple blocks from the park and from the strand, so plenty of options. I have a big wooden kennel that works for most dogs if they want quiet time.

About: My Pet Care Journey My family always had a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to ferrets and racoons. While I have loved animals since I was a toddler , I bring over 20 years of dedicated, hands-on experience. This includes caring for family and friends pets and the privilege of sharing my life with my own dog for 17 beautiful years. Training & Connection My dog was my constant companion—joining me at college and every job I held. She was incredibly intelligent, and we had a unique bond; people often joked that she could understand human conversation. I trained her to do everything from giving high fives, hugs, and "volume-controlled" speaking, to solving puzzles and even climbing trees. I love engaging dogs with challenges and brain games to keep them mentally stimulated, not just physically tired. Our Rehabilitation Journey My deepest experience comes from the battles we fought together. When my 75lb dog suddenly became paralyzed after a dental cleaning, I dedicated myself to her recovery. Through patience and intense physical therapy, I successfully nursed her back to walking condition. When she faced a second, more severe episode later in life, we went right back to work with that same determination. I spent months managing her limited mobility, hygiene, and daily PT exercises. Although she eventually passed from gallbladder issues, those experiences taught me exactly what goes into complex care: the lifting, the mechanics of movement, and most importantly, the patience required to help a dog heal. My Approach Whether your dog needs a fun companion for hikes and brain games or a patient partner for recovery exercises, I provide the same level of devotion I gave my own best friend. Flexible & Available Since I am focusing on pet care full-time, I have great flexibility! I am available 7 days a week for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I can easily adjust to your dog's specific routine rather than trying to squeeze them into a tight schedule, and I'm often available for last-minute bookings. Peace of Mind My experience nursing my own dog through recovery taught me how to handle unexpected situations with a cool head. I know that safety is in the details. ​Mindful Care: I am detail-oriented when it comes to securing gates, doors, and harnesses, so you never have to worry. ​Medical Comfort: Because of my background with senior dogs, I am comfortable spotting if a pup isn't feeling well and knowing when to act. ​Reliable: I cared for my own dog for 17 years, rain or shine. You can count on me to show up on time and treat your home and pet with that same level of respect.

WEEKENDS ONLY.*** AFTER INITIAL VISIT ON WEEKENDS, POSSIBILITY TO SQUEEZE IN THE FOLLOWING WEEK** i apologize for the inconvenience and will be expanding my operations shortly. Thank you and hope to see your pups! I have owned 10 dogs in my life. I have volunteered at shelters, pounds, etc. Everything from puppies to senior doggos, I can administer medicine, potty train your doggo if needed and even teach them new tricks!

As a pet owner myself I have been using Rover and Wag for years and I know how nerve wracking it is finding a new sitter and it requires a lot of trust to leave your fur buddy with someone new, especially for long vacations: I am very personable, I've never met a dog I dont like and that doesn't like me! I will take care of your dog like it is my own and send as many photos as you would like.

“Deeann thank you! You were amazing from the first communication; encouraging and putting my mind at peace. You were so loving to my pups and so very helpful in managing the security of my home each visit. Thank you for spending not only time with them but quality time. We look forward to a great relationship with you.”

About: I've taken care of dogs my whole life. I have 2 dogs of my own who are 9 and 10 years old, and I've raised them since they were puppies--- I've gone through everything from teething and potty training to administering daily arthritis pills. I love taking long walks, playing fetch or tug-o-war, and giving lots of pets and cuddles. I work from home, so my availability during the day is extremely flexible, and I love to send lots of pictures to the 'paw-rents' while they're away! I work from home and have a very flexible calendar to be able to adjust to the needs of my pet clients. I am an early riser in the morning and am usually done with all other commitments around 3pm if an afternoon walk/play time is of interest! I follow instructions very well and have a lot of experience with different types of pet needs. I treat others' spaces like I do national/state parks, "Leave No Trace".

About: Dogs are family members in my home, not just pets. Your K9(s) will be in a great neighborhood in south Redondo Beach, where the air quality is good, the weather is temperate all year long, and they have lots of room to roam in a fenced in back yard. I take joy of sending pics of your dogs stay with me throughout the day. If you're anything like me, you may have more photos of your dog on your phone than you do of people! Lastly, when I take in a dog; I’m with them the whole time and they always have indoor/outdoor access; my back door stays open all day long. Looking to do this full time again. My favorite job by far. I'd like focus on having just a couple solid/repeat customers over volume. Someone that travels a bit with work and/or is looking for a "second home" for their pup(s). I love the bonds I make with my dogs and owners alike. There's nothing more rewarding than my clients running towards my front door when being dropped off and being so happy to see me :) I have my home open for dogs to roam freely in and out, however, I only will have 2 at a time to keep my attention and care at the highest level.

“Very responsive and great with high energy dogs!”

About: I have grown up with pets and have enjoyed learning and experiencing different personalities. With my hands-on experience your furry friend is in capable and caring hands. I specialize in small to medium-sized dogs, but my recent experience with larger breeds has expanded my horizons, though I'm quite selective and open to it only if they're exceptionally well-behaved. My approach to pet sitting is all about creating a comfortable space for your pet to ensure they feel safe and cared for even when you're not at home with them. I understand that every pet is unique and requires individualized attention, which is why I tailor my care to suit their needs and why I only accept 1 client household at a time. I try to accommodate your pet's schedule so that they don't have to experience too much change at once. This includes sticking to exercise regimens, feeding schedules, potty breaks and bedtimes. I work remotely full-time which means I have flexibility in my schedule. Additionally, I try to maintain an active lifestyle which includes running and hiking. When onboarding a new client, I make sure that I understand the pet's schedule and preferences. Additionally, I make sure to understand any boundaries the pet should adhere in the client's home including yard space or even areas in the house. I do a walkthrough with the client so I know what areas may pose a safety concern such as gates and fences. I try to understand the pet's behavior in different scenarios such as when the door bell rings or if a neighborhood dog approaches during walks. I also make sure I have emergency numbers and the location of the closest animal hospital. For client's ease of mind , I provide pictures and updates as needed on the pet.
