“Hillary’s regular updates gave me sense of security while I was away from my kitties. When I got home, they were happy to see me but they presented like I’d been gone for a short errand. They were very well taken care of while I was away!”

“This is my second time having Ella watch my two kitties. She was wonderful! This time around, one of my kitties had medical needs (multiple medications & SQ fluids) & my other was experience separation anxiety. Ella took special care with both of them and adjusted care to help address my kitty’s separation issues. She had wonderful communication and helped me feel better about leaving my fur babies for so long. Will have Ella sit for them again!”

“Kirstin did a great job with my pups. One of mine is very skittish and takes a little extra attention and Kirstin was able to connect with her and make things less stressful for her. All 3 of mine are senior dogs with distinct personalities and she tailored her interactions with each to give them what they need. And the pictures were great! I will definitely use her again.”

About: As someone who works in the pet care industry and has three dogs of my own, caring for animals is a huge part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from high-energy puppies to senior dogs needing extra comfort and attention, and I always strive to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I work full time in the pet care industry, so caring for animals is already a big part of my daily life! With at least a week’s notice, I’m able to make my schedule flexible to best meet the needs of your pet and maintain their normal routine as much as possible. I currently offer care within my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. I know how important consistency can be for animals, especially for shy pets, seniors, or pets who may become stressed in new environments. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, personality, and comfort needs to help them feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind during visits.

“Alexus was great! Ella loved every minute with her! She gave her all the lovings while we were gone and went above and beyond. Would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

About: I have had animals my entire life! Mostly dogs that have lived well into their teens, but also cats. Most recently I had my dog Bella for over 12 years and the last 3 we traveled the country try between Seattle and Miami by car. She unfortunately passed due to cancer and not ready to own an animal, but still love having them around . I am great at playing with animals to keep them engaged and teaching commands. I also can accommodate animals to their needs if they need medicine or special assistance. I work from home for an agency based in Los Angeles. This means that your animal wouldn’t need to be locked up all day if they stay at my house my flexible schedule also also allows me to add walks in the day and play time so your dog isn’t in a crate all day. I also have a yard big enough for throwing sticks for added fun! I do have a fenced in yard that would allow for your dog to run around. I also wouldn’t mind going to someone’s house if I needed to as well as I am mobile.

“Kayla was amazing! She took excellent care of my diabetic cat and provided feedback and pictures with every drop in. I felt completely at ease being gone with her taking care of him. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have a lot of experience with animals coming from a home with many pets! I have experience in veterinary assistance, I also have volunteer experience walking shelter dogs, and shelter cat care! I currently am taking classes and working part time so my only availability is in the morning time before 12pm. I can be available as early as 6am! I walk my dogs daily, and when it’s nice out I like to take them on longer walks so we both get the exercise. My cats get daily care such as scooping the litter box, feeding, and brushing when needed.

About: Hi, I'm McGivney! My passion for animal care started all the way back in the 5th grade when I landed my first pet-sitting job letting out a neighbor's dog. Throughout my childhood, I continued looking after pets for my neighbors, building a reputation for being reliable, attentive, and caring. ​Today, I work as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA). In my professional life, I love developing deep, trusting relationships with people, and I bring that exact same dedication, patience, and meticulous attention to detail when caring for animals. Because of my medical background, I am incredibly comfortable following strict care schedules, following complex routines, and administering oral medications precisely. ​I truly love all creatures! Beyond dogs and cats, I have experience handling and caring for a wide variety of animals, including fish, bearded dragons, geckos, frogs, and snakes. Whether your pet has fur, scales, or fins, I am super comfortable meeting their unique needs and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and properly looked after. ​I live in a comfortable, clean 700 sq. ft. apartment and strictly host only one cat or dog client family at a time to guarantee your pet gets my undivided attention and a stress-free environment. I can't wait to meet your animals and provide you with absolute peace of mind while you are away! Because I work in healthcare, my daily schedule varies, which actually makes me highly adaptable! No matter what my day looks like, your pet's established routine is my top priority. A typical day of care includes structured feeding times, plenty of fresh water, regular bathroom breaks, and dedicated one-on-one attention. I love staying active, so if I am walking or drop-sitting a dog, we will go on fun neighborhood walks and have plenty of playtime. If I am sitting a cat or a reptile, I focus on spending quality, calm time with them, respecting their space, and keeping their environment clean and secure. Pet parents can expect absolute reliability, clear communication, and total peace of mind. I know how stressful it can be to leave your family member with someone new, so I send daily photo updates and quick text check-ins after every visit or walk. My home is a clean, calm, and smoke-free environment. Safety and trust are the absolute core of my pet-sitting philosophy. Coming from a CNA background, I am professionally trained to notice subtle changes in behavior, monitor well-being, and maintain a highly organized, clean environment. When pets are in my 700-square-foot apartment, they enjoy a calm and securely enclosed space. To ensure maximum safety and a stress-free environment, I enforce a strict policy of only hosting one dog or cat family at a time—your pet will never be forced to share space with another strange cat or dog. Out on walks, your dog's safety is my top priority. I always keep dogs securely attached to standard, heavy-duty leashes (I never use unpredictable retractable leashes) and maintain complete awareness of our surroundings to avoid any tense interactions with off-leash neighborhood dogs. For small animals, reptiles, and cats, I ensure all enclosures are double-checked and entry doors are tightly secured before anyone is let out for supervised stretching or play. I treat your pets with the same high level of protective care and responsibility I use every day in my healthcare career.

About: I’ve mostly cared for bigger dogs with a lot of energy. I regularly look after my friend’s pets as well as my family’s. I have a dog of my own, she’s very active and friendly. I’ve had her for over a year and learned so much about dogs from being a pet parent. I got to school part-time but I still have quite a bit of time throughout the day for check-ins. The weekends are best for boarding. I like to do dog walking throughout the week. I spend most of my time at home so I don’t mind hosting at my home but I’ll also do care at a client’s home. I do not have a fenced in back yard but I live in an area with a lot of parks and open spaces. I do spend a lot of time outside so I’m comfortable with going out for multiple walks a day. I don’t provide treats of my own unless the owner asks me too or if they tell me what they’re okay with their pet eating. I don’t give pets food I’m eating because I don’t want them to choke or they could get sick.

“Kristin was great again! We have used her more than once, this time for just a check-in, feed breakfast, and play a bit for an hour while we were gone for an all-day event. Will always try to use Kristin when we need a Rover.”
