Pet Sitting Lakeview Terrace

About: What sets me apart is my experience handling multiple pets at once while still making sure each one gets individual attention and care. I’ve cared for several dogs and cats together in the same household, so I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with young dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to help reinforce basic training like leash manners, sit, stay, and good behavior during walks and feeding time. I also genuinely love going on long walks, so high-energy dogs get the exercise and mental stimulation they need, not just a quick potty break. Above all, I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable by sticking to their routines and treating them like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time gigs after moving cross country in mid-2025 and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to make many times work and am able to sleep over or drop in as needed. I make sure to prioritize safety by anticipating potential dangers. My past experience as a daycare teacher has given me eyes on the back of my head and readiness for issues or safety concerns. I make sure spaces remain safe and comfortable for your pet and respect your guidelines and routines.

“Steve is amazing as always! Highly recommend - on time, pictures, and Roxy always has a great time on her walks!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I pet sit for family & friends, and i’ve decided to start taking care of other peoples pets because it’s something that I love and enjoy! I am a kitten foster, I work with a rescue and have taken care of 7+ newborn kittens that were going to be euthanized. I love doing this not just as a job but as a hobby ☺️ I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am an overthinker so I always think about the worst case scenarios and do my best to avoid anything 😭 Besides that I am on my second year of college looking for a side hustle! If you have any concerns Ive probably researched it 99% of the time, so feel free to ask :) I have 1 cat (indoors & outdoor) and fenced back yard. Accommodations for your pets are available if they are not good with other animals. I have plenty of free time for play time. I enjoy going on walks and exploring nature.

“I highly recommend my dog sitter! He is always on time, very responsible, and does a great job taking care of my dog. I really appreciate his daily updates and reports—they give me peace of mind while I’m away. I will definitely book him again the next time I go on vacation. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby! 🐾❤️”

About: I have been working as a veterinary assistant for 18 years and have done pet sitting and dog walking for 16 years. I have loved animals since i was a little girl. I can schedule walks for earlier in the morning or when the sun is going down. Since it's to hot to go during the day I have a fenced in back yard. I can't board animals at my house. But i can take animals on walks, drop ins and over nights depending on where the place is.

“Vanessa cares for our animals conscientiously and with love. She’s fantastic with our pup. Whether you need a walker or siitter, she’s reliable and trustworthy. Could not ask for better.”

“Alisa is a very attentive and caring sitter with a great connection to animals. She and Rocky found a common language right away, and it was clear he felt comfortable and happy with her. Alisa is easy to communicate with, responsive, and very accurate and thoughtful. I felt confident leaving Rocky in her care and would happily book with her again.”

You can really tell that she loves animals. My fur baby was so happy and he seemed to really like the quality time he spent with her. I’d definitely recommend Jana to others!”

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and commitment that pets need every day. If you know me, you know I’m the person who gets excited every time I see a dog on a walk or a cat lounging outside. I’m always the first one asking if I can pet a dog, and I never pass by a stray animal without trying to make sure it has food, water, or a little kindness. My love for animals is genuine, and spending time with them never feels like a job to me. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for my own pets when they’ve been sick. Whenever one of my cats or dogs needed medication, special care, or extra attention, I was usually the one making sure they got what they needed. Because of this, I’m comfortable following care instructions and being patient with pets who may need a little extra support. In addition to my experience with animals, I work in healthcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to pay attention to details, follow routines, and provide quality care—skills that I bring with me when caring for pets as well. I’m often the go-to pet sitter for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work night shift, which means my days are usually free and very flexible. Because of that, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to walking, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets during the day. I actually love that my schedule allows me to be fully present when I’m caring for animals—I’m not rushing between work or distracted by a 9–5 schedule. I can give pets my full attention, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. My routine also makes it easy for me to be consistent and reliable with scheduling. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and working odd hours, so I’m very organized and good at sticking to care instructions and time-sensitive routines. Overall, my flexible daytime availability makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle, and I really enjoy being able to spend that time doing something I genuinely love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep things consistent and familiar for them. I approach every visit with patience and calm energy, letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. Whether it’s feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending quiet time together, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions. If a pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, or special care needs, I make sure everything is done exactly as requested. I have experience administering medications and caring for pets with extra medical needs, so I’m comfortable handling those responsibilities with care and reliability. While I’m in the home, I also make sure everything stays clean, respectful, and as you left it. My goal is not only to care for your pet, but to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands and your home is being respected. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—always with love, patience, and attention to their unique personality.

“Kayla is awesome! She was available on fairly short notice and has been great with communication. So happy to have found her to help take care of our dog Pepper. We’ll be repeat clients for sure!”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life and have volunteered at humane societies for a few years mainly as a dog kennel ambassador. I also have experience with bigger dogs, puppies, and senior dogs! In fact I have had a yorkie since he was a pup and a childhood dog of 15 years! I have taken care of bigger breeds such as husky/wolf mixes and very small dogs such as chihuahuas. Not only that I also have a cat! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I am a college student and have most Fridays, and weekends off so I’m usually free all day. From Monday to Thursday I have classes but am available mornings, late afternoons by appointment. I only do drop-ins and walks but when I am in someone else’s home I make it a priority to be respectful of your space and make sure nothing is moved around or messed around with.

About: I have been caring for pets (dogs and cats) since I was 5 years old as both a pet owner and sitter. I understand how difficult it can be to be away from your pet family members and will send regular pics and updates to keep you informed about your pet's well-being while you're away. I have always been passionate about researching and finding effective natural solutions to support pet health and am happy to recommend helpful approaches for your pets specific needs at your request. I also have lots of senior dog care experience, and am comfortable administering most meds that don't involve needles. My beloved senior dog with special needs (lost use of hind legs among other things) recently passed away and I miss him but am so thankful for the time we had. I learned a lot about using natural remedies to support senior dog health from him and also learned to walk him with support for his hind end. I am currently able to provide drop in visits for pets in the Mountain Glen I community in Sylmar at this time. If you live in this community and need help caring for your family pet, please reach out so we can arrange a time to meet. Happy to help with dogs, cats and possibly other kinds of pets. I can board too, but only for pets I know and have worked with previously. I always look for and implement practices that will create a safe, peaceful, healthy and nurturing environment for pets in my home and only board pets from the same home at the same time. Boarding and day-care are only available for pets I know and have worked with previously.

“Ms. Candace is a detailed & wonderful pet sitter !!! She is a natural w/ animals !! Highly recommend , Thank you Ms Candace‼️?”

About: I'm patient, genuine, kind, and highly empathetic to animals. If there's a cat or dog in the street, I am capturing it and making sure it gets taken care of. I have experience with kittens, puppies, senior dogs, big dogs, playful cats, scaredy cats, and everything in-between. Owning over 10 animals in my own lifetime, and taking care of many others, I am confident in my ability to care for pets of any kind. I work from home only 3 days per week. I can work from my laptop. I have a highly flexible schedule that keeps me at home and able to be present. I can go for breaks or walks whenever, even on work days, as my work load is usually very light. I am available most weekends. I always am respectful, calm, and alert when it comes to taking care of animals. I am very clean, organized, and detail-oriented. I am very thorough and use my gut and instinct to make decisions. I try to get in tune with whichever animal I am with, listening to their specific needs.
