Brandy was amazing! Brandy often showed up early, sent me numerous pictures (which helped with the nerves), played with Souliel, and picked up after any accidents. She was respectful of my home and my girl looked forward to seeing her daily. Highly recommend and would book again in a heartbeat!

Vasil was great! I booked super last minute and he was able to make it over to our place on very short notice and help with our dog! Our dog is 85 lbs and Vasil was very calm even though our boy is quite strong and not the best on the leash. If you have a big dog, definitely recommend Vasil, he’s VERY TALL!!! Definitely helps!

About: I have grown up with pets all my life. I learned at a young age the responsibility and passion it takes to properly care for an animal. I understand that pets are truly a part of the family and I treat all animals with love and respect. I have cared for multiple dogs and cats that were my own and also for friends and family. Anyone that you ask can attest that I am the biggest animal lover! I am a full time entrepreneur/artist, so my schedule is very flexible! I am able to step away from my work to check on your pet as needed or pick up my laptop to care for your pet in their own space. I am available Monday-Friday with a flexible schedule and occasional Saturday and Sundays. Since I am self-employed, I am able to come to your home to care for your pet at any time of the day for as long as your pet needs! Depending on your pet's needs, I can be as attentive or as quick as you like. Working from home allows me to consistently check in on your pet and meet all of their physical and emotional needs. I love and care for all dogs I come across, so every breed is welcomed with open arms!

About: I’ve been dog walking and pet sitting for friends :) and family for over 9 years. I am comfortable handling all dogs, cats & and even bunnies!!! I truly love them all! I believe man’s best friend deserves plenty of love, attention, and care. :). I understand that busy schedules can sometimes make it hard to give pets all the time they need, and I’d love to help provide that extra support. Whether it’s playtime, potty breaks, walks, cuddles, or companionship, I’ll make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently back in school full-time pursuing another degree, and when I’m not in class or studying, you’ll usually find me outside enjoying the sunshine. I have fond memories of working for a family friend as a dog walker during my undergraduate years, and now that I’m back in school as a postgraduate student, I’d love the opportunity to help fellow pet owners again. I’m very dependable, detail oriented, and a strong rule follower who appreciates clear instructions and routines. I will carefully follow your pet care guidelines to make sure your pups stay safe, happy, and comfortable while in my care. I’m also mindful about respecting your home and ensuring both your dogs and cats are well cared for every step of the way.

About: I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my determination, admiration, and respect for all. I take all comments and concerns as a growing opportunity for my own experience and also to better the experience of your pets. I work graveyard 5 days a week, and I find myself wanting to detach and find comfort in another opportunity as well as keeping my original job. I am good with communication and will always find a way to work around my schedule, compromise, while also taking consideration of the owners schedule. I will first make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their presence and asking the owners about their personality and what the pets routine is throughout the day/night. I am a list person and will always make sure to check all the boxes as needed. While also developing a kind friendship with your pet.

About: I’ve grown up with animals all my life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and small pets like hamsters. I understand the daily responsibilities of feeding, grooming, and exercising pets, and I pay close attention to each animal’s unique personality and needs. I currently have a German Shepherd, a Chihuahua/Terrier mix, a cockatiel, and I’ve also had a wobbly cat, she was the cutest, and the sweetest girl ever. I’ve had multiple dogs and cats growing up. They have all lived long lives. Thank you god 💗. I love caring for pets of all kinds—playing, walking, feeding, or just giving extra love. I’m gentle, patient, reliable, and always make sure your furry friend feels happy and safe while you’re away. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule around my classes. I have one class on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1:00-1:50, so I’m free the rest of those days (before and after), and I’m fully available on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I’m happy to adjust my schedule to provide consistent care and attention for pets. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I make sure the space around me is secure, clean, and pet-friendly. I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions carefully, and I give pets plenty of attention, love, and supervision. I also communicate regularly with pet owners to ensure they feel confident their pets are happy and safe.

About: Hi, my name is Melissa, and what sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs and the genuine care I bring to each one. I’ve grown up with dogs for as long as I can remember and have never gone without one, giving me a strong, natural understanding of their needs, behavior, and daily routines—your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my priority. I was raised around my mom’s dog walking business, which she has successfully run for over 20 years, and through her guidance I’ve learned how to properly handle dogs in real-world situations. This includes maintaining safe leash control, staying aware of surroundings at all times, and confidently managing situations like encounters with other dogs while keeping both pets and myself safe. I also understand the importance of consistency and routine through caring for my own dog daily, including timed walks, feeding schedules, and recognizing when a dog needs to go out. My experience has taught me how to be attentive, responsible, and proactive, ensuring every dog in my care is handled with confidence, patience, and reliability. My schedule is very flexible, and pet care is my full-time focus, allowing me to plan my day around the needs of each pet I care for. I am typically available in the early afternoons and consistently available on weekends, with weekday and morning availability varying, so I always encourage reaching out to confirm scheduling. Once a booking is confirmed, I am highly reliable and committed to being there as planned. I’m also flexible with schedule adjustments and can accommodate changes with proper notice, including same-day requests when possible. I offer multiple visits per day as well as extended and overnight care, ensuring each pet receives consistent, attentive care based on their routine and needs. When I’m caring for a dog in a client’s home, I always follow their instructions exactly and keep the environment safe and calm. I make sure doors and gates are fully closed, I lock up behind myself, and I keep the dog away from other animals outside. I double‑check leashes and harnesses before walks, clean up any messes, and leave everything the way I found it. I also send updates and photos so owners always know how their pet is doing.

About: Hello! I’ve been a pet companion and owner my entire life. I’ve raised both mischievous felines and rambunctious canines. Currently, my best friend Roxanne (Staffordshire Terrier) and I have accumulated sixteen years of thrilling adventures and joyously tender memories. We are inseparable. Together we’ve resided in downtown Long Beach for the past ten years. With my loyal companion’s help, we’ve diligently mapped out all the best grass patches, sturdy tree trunks, and secret public gardens to share with future furry friends. I’ve a wide variety of experience with both dogs and cats as I’ve grown up beside them and continue to care for my parter in crime, Roxanne. I’m fluent in both inexperienced youth and mature adults, lazy loungers and hyperactive runners. I’m a positively enthusiastic pet lover and friend, full of energy and a love for the outdoors and any playtime activity. I’m familiar with basic grooming needs such as combing, washing, and teeth brushing. I am also happy to work with any age group in terms of basic command training. I am a firm believer in positive reenforcement in order to teach commands such as sit, stay, come, down, and paw. I do love to dog jog if your family friend has high energy output needs. Simply said, Roxanne and I enjoy both explorative walks and good couch movie cuddles but most importantly enjoy greetings with our fellow pet friends. I am extremely flexible in terms of accommodating your family fur babies needs and preferences and I gladly welcome introductory meet and greets. Rest assured that your family companion's safety, exercise, and overall well being are at the forefront of my work ethic. I earnestly look forward to future merry walks, cheerful playtime, and slobbery doggy/kitty kisses. As a senior flight attendant, I’ve the ability to enjoy extreme flexibility with schedules. Often I’ll have complete weeks at a time off from flying. This means, when at home, I’ve twenty-four hours of availability for your companion. This flexibility really helps in terms of accommodating each and every pets particular schedule no matter the time of day or night. I do encourage meet and greets with owner and fur pal. This helps to create a trusting environment where I can gain critical information about special needs and preferences for our pet companion. Additionally, this allows me to best tailor the experience for both owner and pet.

Sydney went above and beyond with my dogs! This was my first check-in for my young puppy and she made sure he was well taken care of. I was pretty nervous about it, but I felt that he was in good hands and safe. Sydney even got my grumpy, old dog to snuggle up with her. She was wonderful to work with. Highly recommend!
