“My (and my dog, Sully's) first time with Susan. Susan's got her act together. She knows all the right questions to ask and even went above and beyond to make sure Sully was ok throughout the day and night. Would definitely recommend Susan.”

About: I’ve had 2 large dogs, 3 cats, and 2 bunnies my whole life! I’m ready and excited for whatever gets thrown at me! I love playing and caring for your pets probably more than they do haha Because I finished my major at Pepperdine i’m looking for things to fill my time while paying my bills, walking, playing, and caring for your animals brings joy to me I have a pretty flexible schedule with school so we can work together to figure out a plan that will work for both of us!
“Mando was very flexible as we were scheduling. As I have a giant breed puppy, it takes someone strong (physically and mentally) and he was able to handle my giant baby adeptly. He posted lots of photos as well.”

About: For us, this isn’t just dog sitting it’s a second home. We don’t treat dogs like bookings or numbers. Every dog that stays with us becomes part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. We provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable, especially those who may be shy or adjusting to a new place. We’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for the past three years, with stays ranging from one week to as long as two months. We’re happy to provide recommendations if needed. We also have a friendly 5-year-old mini Goldendoodle mix at home, so your dog will always have a companion to play with and feel at ease. We keep owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you’ll always have peace of mind while you’re away. What truly sets us apart is the consistency and genuine care. We treat every dog like our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine, as we’re home most of the time and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. We plan our schedule around their needs, including regular potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and rest. Our whole family is involved in caring for the dogs. We have a 24-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter, so there’s almost always someone at home to provide attention, supervision, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and we make sure they feel included in our day-to-day activities. Whether it’s relaxing indoors, supervised outdoor time, or just being nearby, they’re always cared for and watched over. On a weekly basis, we keep things consistent so dogs can settle into a routine quickly, which helps them feel comfortable and secure during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. In our home, we provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. We primarily care for small to medium-sized dogs, allowing us to maintain a calm, safe, and more personalized setting. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so we can care for them accordingly. We supervise dogs closely throughout the day and never leave them unattended for long periods. Our home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy companionship, consistency, and a quieter environment. We’re experienced with longer stays, ranging from one week to as long as two months, and we help dogs settle in comfortably as if they’re part of the family. We’re also comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering time-sensitive medication, including an 11-year-old Maltese we regularly care for who requires medication twice daily. We follow all feeding instructions carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and maintain a consistent schedule for potty breaks, playtime, and rest. If needed, we can separate dogs to keep everyone safe and stress-free. Communication is very important to us, so we provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Above all, we offer a true home environment with consistent, attentive care—we treat every dog like our own.

I appreciate her awareness of a dog's energy and I knew Scout was in good hands with her, so I never have to worry about her when she's with Oli. I also appreciated the follow up on the first day along with pics to assure me Scout felt settled in.”
