Genuine care for the ones you love.

Pet care experience

I have about 13 years of experience when it comes to caretaking for dogs. I've taken care of close friends and families dog's both at my residence or stationed at theirs for the comfortability of the dog. Big or small I've taken care of them all. For weeks at a time and as much as 3 dogs at a time. Being active is important to me so I love going on walks. And living in North Hollywood is perfect because I'm right next to the most gorgeous park, with a trail and open space to really enjoy outside. Importantly: Being apart of two 6 week dog training programs, I know what to look for and how to respond when it comes to dog safety and overall behavioral well being. Being away from your dog can be hard, but it's my job to make sure that it's easy as possible for everyone involved (including the pup.) I'm looking forward to being of service to you. Sincerely.

Michael was an amazing Dogsitter. My 2 dogs are rescues with individual personalities and needs. Michael was able to bring the best out of each of them and they were more than comfortable with his service and care. He was super respectful of our home and left the place as clean or cleaner than when we left. He is a thoughtful and attentive person. He sent video and updates throughout the time he sat Mason & Harper. I would highly recommend him????

Lonnie is the best! He’s easy to communicate with, friendly, and accommodating! I love leaving Winston in his care, I always know he’ll be taken care of and super safe and happy while he’s with Lonnie!

Safety first. And no one animal is the same. If you have any request i'm understandably more than willing to provide the proper service/treatment that's needed.

A typical day

Simply put, a typical day starts and ends with joy. It's exciting for dogs to get to build a new relationship with someone, so I try to provide an experience that they look forward to coming back to. Walks in the park, enjoying the sun, and relaxing,
