“Wonderful dog walker- was so kind to meet us and our dog and help out when we needed it.”

About: I've had dogs my whole life and have been dog sitting/walking since I was young. I love getting to know new dogs and look forward to making sure your dog is in great care, so you can be away worry free! I maintain a flexible work schedule as I work from home and make my own hours - I am available for last minute bookings and walks. Safety and communication are my number one priority. I prioritize following any house specific rules and special needs for your pets or household. Plus as a photographer, I love sending great photos of your pets to you while you're gone!

“Elizabeth is so communicative and very understanding of Gremi’s needs as a tripod. I also appreciate how she made adjustments to make Gremi feel comfortable on her first walk with her. Gremi had a great time!”

About: I have had animals my entire life dogs, cats, hamsters and a snake. I have taken care of numerous pets for my family and friends. I am a college student and will be available anytime I am not in class! I have a lot of free time which i would love to be filled with spending time with animals. I have 3 cats at home that are purely indoor. When i am caring for someone else’s pet I do what I am instructed to do for their pet.

About: I've had pets all my life. I've had dogs, cats, fish, and turtles. I've also cared for hamsters, rabbits, and guinea pigs before. I've walked, fed, bathed, house sat, and played with pets belonging to family and friends. Having had my own pets throughout my life, I know how precious furry friends are. I will tend to your pet with utmost care! I'm currently working on my master's so my schedule is inconsistent. However, if you need me to care for your pet at a specific time, please contact me and we can try to work something out! How I care for your pets will largely depend on your preferences as the owner. I want to get to know your pet's personality, preferences, and energy leveI. I would like a general schedule of feeding and bathroom times and instructions. In your home, I can play with your pet, sit next to them, cuddle with them, or go out for brief walks.

“Tomoko has been walking my dog for almost a month now and she’s so awesome! The minute we met for the meet and greet, her kindness and warmth shone through, putting both me and my pup at ease :) she’s very responsible through texts, always punctual, and ensures my pup gets his walk without a fail. If you’re looking for someone who loves animals and will take good care of them it’s Tomoko! ❤️”

About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. Extended family members have dropped off their pets with me when they are away on holiday. I enjoy playing with them. I work from home so your pet will have supervision at all times. Typically I walk my dog, Mochi, once in the morning. Sometimes I play fetch with her around noon if she's up for it. I feed her on schedule daily. I have a large fenced yard and one friendly dog who will enjoy a playmate, as you may see in the first photo of Mochi with the pavers and grass. I make sure that there is always fresh water available for Mochi and that she gets regular outdoor breaks.

About: I absolutely love dogs. I've grown up with dogs all my life, sometimes with 5 in the house at a time. Along with taking care of my own dogs, I began dog sitting and dog walking for family members and family friends when I was 15. I love making dogs happy, getting them out of the house on walks, playing tug of war with them, or just cuddling on the couch. I am a full time college student taking mainly online classes so I have a good amount of availability. I am available Monday-Friday mainly all day, for the weekends I have limited availability but I can always be flexible. I think being respectful of what your boundaries are is most important. Every owner and pup is different and I can adapt well to the different needs for each one. I believe that being gentle and patient is a necessity when it comes to pet care. When walking or caring for your pet I will hold the upmost care for them.

“Francesca was great! We met her for a meet & greet and she was very kind and got along great with our frenchie, Birdie. She came over for an hour to feed, walk and hang out with her. We really appreciated her detailed notes and great photos. She even brought in our packages, which was so nice. We definitely recommend her and will be booking her in the future!”

About: I have hands on experience raising two energetic and loyal German Shepherds. I offer a balanced approach to care, with focus on creating an stress-free , fun and safe environment. I’m currently working in La Crescenta from Monday- Friday 7:30am-4:00pm so I have all afternoons free to walk or drop in on your pets while you’re away. I can also do a quick drop in from 11:30am- 12:30pm At the moment I can not care for pets in my home but in a clients home I would get clear instructions from the client for house rules, feedings, medications, etc. Get to know the home and routines of the pets and have emergency contacts to call.

About: I have 10years of animal care experience, walking, talking, and hanging out with both large and small animals. I have experience with the fun, lovable family member types as well as the trained, agility and discipline types of dogs. I am capable of following existing discipline regimes as well as showing up and letting the animals be themselves. Animals bring me joy and I would be honored to be a part of your pets life, even for a short time. I am currently building my own business so I have a lot of flexibility within my own schedule. I do like advanced notice but as we begin to build a regular relationship I will be open to last minute requests. When I am in your home, my job and my focus will be your pet. I will asses their comfort and safety level with me, giving them space where needed but ensuring I know where they are and what they need at all times. Not only do I take any job I have seriously, these are not just animals but parts of your family, and I take as much care whether I was watching a human baby or a fur baby.

“Julie is very thorough and caring. She took time out of her schedule before our arranged booking to stop by and go over the nuances of Yzma’s harness, the location, etc. She communicates clearly and in a timely manner, and I definitely recommend her and would use her again”

About: Hi! I’m 24 and currently in college studying to become a veterinarian. Caring for pets has always been a big, natural part of my life, and I’m happiest when I’m spending time with dogs, cats, and other animals of any size. I recently started volunteering at a local animal shelter to gain more hands-on experience, and I also have experience dog sitting for friends and family. I love going on walks, playtime, and giving pets plenty of attention and love. I would treat your pets just like my own and make sure they feel happy and safe while you’re away. I’m in school part-time, but I’m pretty flexible and available on weekends as well as Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays, I’m free from 10 am to 6 pm, and on the other days I can work around whatever time you need. I’m happy to follow any rules you have for your pet and all safety guidelines. Your fur baby will be safe and well taken care of with me!

About: My dog friendly home is located in North Glendale/La Crescenta/La Canada area. I am passionate about caring for animals and provide a safe, fun loving environment, tailored to you and your pets needs. My home and yard are extremely secure, and pets are welcome inside and out. I have a large play area with a doggie door that can be closed off if necessary. Dogs are walked twice daily and I am trusted by animals and their owners alike. I provide one on one attention and in most cases, allow one family at a time. You and your pet are welcome to come visit anytime before you make a decision. Currently, I am a pet sitter/dog walker,home full time, and have a small "doggie day care" service also. I am available to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home and can visit up to 4 times per day. Safe pick up and delivery of your pet is provided upon request:)

About: I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes since I was a teenager. I have a deep love of animals and I will always treat your pets as if they were my own. I’m currently working freelance and can generally work my schedule around your petsitting needs. I’m available for house/pet sitting, walks and feedings, attention giving and playing and everything in between. I’m a pet parent to a cat named Rio who is the love of my life. I’ve owned both dogs and cats throughout my life and I love both dearly. I’m tall and strong enough to handle and walk large dogs and am always very gentle with smaller dogs and cats.

About: I have been having dog for 20 years. I also have hard time to find dog sitting when I go out of town. I want to help someone who has same difficulty as I. I love cuddling with dog therefore if your dog needs it. I prefer boarding during the weekend rather than weekdays. There is pretty safe and quiet walking route around my neighborhood. If your dog needs excercise a lot, I could make them satisfied. I am easy to communicate with mobile device and I kind of know what dog owners are expecting. I would not accept old and sick dog because of liability. I also prefer to take care of pet within my neighbor area. You would not be disappointed. Thank you

“We love working with Emin. Great communication, patient, and loves our dog. Walter gets a great workout and almost always has a bowel movement when he walks with Emin.”

Feed them on time every day, keep the boarding environment clean, take them for a walk in the morning, at noon and in the evening, train them to relieve themselves outside. During the day, the dogs play in a safe yard and sleep in the indoor dog bed at night. Pay attention to the details of the pets.
