“Kelly did a fantastic job watching my dog Harley! My request was super last minute and she was so accommodating! My dog can be a bit much but she showed so much patience and care with her! She logged two walks, one of them over an hour long. Wow! And the pictures she took are adorable! Will definitely be coming back soon.”


“They were amazing caregivers to Chuck! Made him homemade sweet potato treats! Took him for a walk and kept him occupied and busy while I was away! I would definitely book with them again!”

Just structured, controlled play that keeps dogs happy and secure. At The Ranch, your dog isn't just watched--they're guided, reinforced, and cared for by people who truly understand them.

“Super easy, responded quickly and took good care of my furry pal.”


“Mark is an amazing sitter! He took my Laila to 4 or 5 walks and had a blast playing with other dog’s during their walk. He also sent me many pictures of my furry baby where she looked like having a lot of fun. Very communicative, a truly dog lover and very understanding. Definitely booking him again and super recommended. Thank you so much Mark!!”


“Valerie and Samuel were great with my pup and sent updates and photos during the day which I appreciate! We will definitely reach out to them again for our future dog sitting needs. Thank you, Valerie & Samuel!”


“Super accommodating with my big dog, let Donnie on his couch too. Very receptive to me as well. Next time I am in the area will forsure book again :) thanks again”


About: At K9s Only West LA, our goal is to provide a happy, healthy, and safe environment for your pet when they're away from home. We're pleased to offer the Health Care Commitment Program, which reimburses up to $500 for eligible expenses incurred during your pet’s stay. Enrollment is automatic when your pet attends daycare, covering treatments or diagnoses for incidents that occur during their stay or within 5 days after departure. If veterinary care is needed, we’ll attempt to consult with your pet’s primary vet. If unavailable, we work with local veterinarians to address any medical issues.

“Jacky was an absolute pleasure to work with! He took great care of my pup and communicated well and was flexible and just awesome. Highly recommend!!”


About: I have cared for many pets all shapes and sizes since elementary school. Neighbors, friends and family have all trusted me to care, bathe and walk their dogs. I have taught many dogs many tricks, been a great cuddle buddy to many cats and have even cared for many pets in my own home. For all pet needs, I'm your gal! I am available Monday through Friday any time of the day. I can be available weekends as well, anytime before 4pm. I have my own dog that I walk a few times a day but is very flexible and will not interfere with any care that I will provide for others. I have a reliable car, available schedule, can be wherever you need anytime you need. I understand the importance of pet care and busy schedules so I can even help during last minute occasions. If ever in need of pet sitting in my own home, I can make this work; I do have a dog and cat of my own but they both get along great with other animals. I walk my dog about three times a day, each time for longer than 30 minutes so if long walks with your dog are needed, it is absolutely no problem at all; as I really enjoy long walks! Also, my dog has special needs with feeding time, so if your pets have similar needs (medications, warmed up food, mixing foods, etc.) I am well experienced.


About: I adore dogs and treat them with respect, warmth, and love. I am kind, gentle, nurturing and promise that your dog will be marinated with affection and attention! I also enjoy taking dogs on long walks for them to get their exercise. I work for myself I'm available for most days and nights, live in a very safe neighborhood (Mar Vista) on the west side of Los Angeles, and one mile from the beach. I had a lot of dogs growing up --dachshunds, spaniels, setters, corgis, poodles--so I am used to training them, and watching out for them. Dogs seem to like me, too so whatever breed you have, I'm sure we'll get along just fine! I'm looking forward to meeting your dog soon! thanks I have availability to take care of your pet. I’ll make sure to adhere to your detailed instructions and taking your dog on plenty of walks where he or she can maintain a healthy routine. I make sure to keep your place clean, and quiet. I make sure to leave your place in the same condition that it was left in . I also send you daily photos and videos of your dog to let you know that he or she is in safe hands.

About: Hi! I’m Christine— an obsessed mommy to an adorable mini bichon, Eggi 🐶❤️. My dog is my world and I know your baby is too! **Please note** I am not a sitter for everyone. If your dog is adventurous and loves to be outdoors, I’m not for you. However, if your dog loves being pampered and cleanliness/daily essential grooming is your priority, I am for you! Calling all the high maintenance grooming dogs… Poodles, Bichons, Maltese, Yorkies and the likes. 🐩 Every time that I needed someone to dog sit, my dog would come back looking dirty & disheveled and realized that there may be a few others similar to what I need and look for in a sitter. I grew up with small, indoor dogs all my life; therefore, I am most comfortable with dogs that are: - friendly with other dogs. My dog is 5 lbs, 1.5 years old, and loves to play! - small, ideally under 15 lbs - indoor potty trained - okay when left alone for max 2 hours What I provide: - Clean environment! Filtered water with bowls cleaned daily, pee pads are switched out immediately. - Lots of play time & attention. I will be with your dog almost all day with the exception of 1-2 hours to workout or to run quick errands. - I will not book any other dogs during the time your dog is with me. - Daily basic grooming: teeth cleaning, brushing, cleaning eyes and tear stains, ear wipes (as your dog tolerates and needs) - Paws will be cleaned after every outdoor adventure 🐾 - Grooming for additional fee: bathing, trimming paw hair ***daily grooming is only applicable if your dog tolerates it and isn’t already matted*** I am currently studying and stay at home most of the day with the exception of 1-2 hours to go work out or run errands. Your pup will be roaming freely in my apartment all day. I can take your dog to parks by request (harness required, not a collar). Your dog will be carefully harnessed when traveling to and from places.

“Absolutely fantastic! My dog loves going to daycare with them and is always so sad to leave. Clear, communicative, and attentive. Definitely recommend!”


“Xun has been an amazing caretaker of our Goldendoodle Dustin. She provides multiple unprompted picture updates throughout the day. I highly recommend Xun to care for your beloved family member, I have used her services on four prior occasions, and I will not hesitate to book her again.”


“Gregory was great! Very clear communication, super thoughtful and timely, and our pup Ruby had an amazing time!”


“Maya had an amazing time at Mickie's for doggy day care. My dog is very high energy and she was able to handle her. Maya can be a little minion and is not for the weak lol. I have never seen my dog so happy and exhausted! Her two dogs, Kodie and Ollie are the cutest and wrestled all day with her. I recommend her for sure if you need someone to help out with your fur baby - she is responsible and reliable.”


“Camille was great!! She was super responsive and addressed all my concerns with ease. We have a small pomeranian and we're always concerned about him with bigger dogs or eating human food, but that was totally fine and we felt our pup was safe. He also could use some more attention (due to a toddler taking our time) which Camille and her family definitely gave him. Camille was also very accommodating and flexible in general. We'd definitely use her again!”


“Olivia is so caring and kind. My pup loves her so much. She’s very responsive and gives updates through out the day. We feel really lucky to have found Olivia.”



“Junior always has a fun stay at Roxy’s! She is so kind and really helped us during an important time of our lives and made sure everything was okay and sent us lots of photos. Thank you!”


“Angela took great care of my pup for four days of action-packed daycare. My dog got exercise, playtime, snuggles and lots of love! She came home happy and exhausted every night. Angela was awesome with her & provided fun updates for me along the way!”


“If I could give Emily ten stars for how much care, love and attention she has given my fur baby it would still seem an inadequate evaluation. She is highly professional in her demeanor, consistent in her devotion to her charge and provides wonderful updates in both pictures as well as written form. My six month old puppy literally vibrates each morning we drive closer to Emily home and at the end of the day I receive a content and tired pup who has had an amazing time in her “home away from home.””

3. The Ranch Dog Training
“I can not say enough wonderful things about The Ranch. We’ve had our dog stay here for daycare days for a couple of years so far, and we don’t plan on using any other daycare simply because of how excellent the staff are here. Everyone is so kind, and every daycare day gives you a report card from the staff member with pictures and notes on how the day went. You can also schedule boarding and/or training days, and the staff have been amazing in training us how to be even better dog parents. We always feel safe and happy whenever we drop off our dog, and we always recommend The Ranch to others looking for a dog training or daycare facility. Top tier dog LA location!”

“Christine is the only sitter I trust with my diva poodle. My dog always comes back looking better than I left her! I personally don’t prefer my dog going out for walks while I’m away (hello anxiety from all the horror stories of dogs getting sick or lost!). She’s super communicative, keeps me posted with daily photos and videos, and is truly just a dog person. I can travel in peace because of her.”
