“Sofia did such an amazing job looking after my french bulldog and my cat while I was away! So many cute pictures with detailed updates and my animals love her! Highly recommend :)”

About: I love all pets and animals and have been trusted by neighbors and family friends since I was 16 to feed, check in on, play with, and even stay overnight with their pets to keep them comfortable and safe. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel cared for while their owners are away. Pet care is something I truly enjoy, so I make time for it in my routine. I’m flexible with drop-ins, walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and overnight stays. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day.I’m available as necessary on weekends, evenings/nights and very early mornings. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, routines, and house rules to make sure pets feel secure and stress-free. I provide a calm, loving environment, close supervision, and lots of patience so every pet feels safe, cared for, and at home.
“Such a great experience. I knew reading the bio I wanted to book Belle. She was prompt, efficient, and communication was seamless from start to finish. Everything felt easy and handled with care. I really appreciated how smooth the whole process was and my dogs were happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book again.”


About: I am very passionate about caring for animals of all species and sizes! I worked for a dog rescue for 5 years including working in the medical clinic and as the Lifesaving and Care Manager, so I have experience caring for dogs in all life stages and with all sorts of medical needs. I am experienced with giving medication, injections, vaccines, and assessing their health and wellbeing. I also rode horses for 10 years and have experience working in a full service training barn. I was a regular pet sitter at a client's home caring for 4 dogs, 5 horses, a pig, 2 goats, and 2 tortoises which was my favorite job by far! I have my own dogs and cats that I love dearly. I would love to be able to love and care for your pets just like I do my own! Please contact me with any further questions! I currently work part-time various days throughout the week, but my shifts are typically only 5-7 hours. I am very diligent about making sure that your dogs get walked daily and bathroom breaks often throughout the day. I will make any needed accommodations for any medical needs your pets may have. I also have a pet friendly car with a travel crate and a backseat canopy, so if you know your furry friends love to go for rides to get a pup cup or pup patty, I will gladly take them! I will follow all instructions you leave regarding your pets. I am very diligent about making sure your dogs are walked daily and let out for consistent bathroom breaks. I am very familiar with crate training and my own dogs are crate trained. I cannot emphasize enough how much I love pets. I will treat them as if they are my own. If they normally sleep in bed with you, I will 100% let them sleep in the bed with me. I just ask that you are honest and upfront about any behavioral issues your pets may have. I have experience with dogs that have resource guarding issues, aggression, are escape artists, have to be kept separate from other pets, etc, but in order to give both your pet and I the best possible experience, I ask that you are honest about any behaviors that may impact our time spent together. I personally own a mastiff and a pitbull mix, so I am very familiar with large breeds and have personally had dogs that needed to be kept separate all times. I also had my own horse for many years and have always had cats around as well! I personalize each experience to fit your pet's exact needs. Please let me know if you have any specific questions you would like answered! I would love to connect!

About: I'm a sensitive, caring responsible individual who loves to play with dogs and with whom dogs love to play. I've worked at the Glendale, CA Humane Society Shelter walking dogs and really enjoyed the experience. I've owned dogs for a good part of my life. However, I recently had to put Taffy, my last dog, to sleep. She was 16 and not doing well. It was heart wrenching and I thought perhaps that rather getting another, I could give the love I have for dogs to others, without having the ultimate burden of ownership. I live in Agoura Hills, CA. There lots of room for dogs to walk and play, lots of trees and grass for dogs to sniff and explore. There are also lots of other dogs in the community and opportunities for dogs to socialize, if the owners and the dogs want. I have a fenced yard and I work from home. I have a flexible schedule. Consequently, I can adapt my schedule to your dog's schedule. I have a fenced yard and I have no other dogs. Even though the house is on two levels, it's easy for dogs to navigate.
“Margaret took excellent care of our baby while we were away. She’s such an animal lover and took the time to really shower our kitten with love and affection and lots of playtime in addition to the basic needs of our cat. She took the time to develop a friendship with Skye, which made both us and our cat very happy. Margaret is so responsive with loads of pictures so you can see how your furbaby is doing. She really went above and beyond for us and we couldn’t be any happier with how well our cat was taken care of. It certainly made us feel more comfortable with being away. We will have Margaret back to watch Skye any time!”

“Victoria was an amazing sitter for our beloved cat Lorelei while we were on our NYE trip. She is attentive and flexible and provided compassionate care and companionship. We will definitely reach out to her again for future cat sitting needs. :)”

“Outstanding and reliable, with excellent communication! We have several pets (cat, tortoise, dragon, dogs, fish) and it’s good to know that we can count on Oli to perform our complicated pet routine when we’re away. Thanks!”

“Perry was so fun to work with, friendly and professional. He seems to really enjoy working with dogs and Luca had a blast on his walks and park outings. Perry was always on time. I would definitely use him again if needed.”

About: I have been surrounded by animals since I was little. I love animals probably more then people at times and I will love your fur babies as if they were my own and take great care of them! I am wide open with availability during the day in case your pets need someone with them for most of the day or if they are fine being alone for certain amount of time. Currently not working full time . I live in an apartment so I won’t be offering to take in any pets as theirs a limit of how many can be staying here. At the moment.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. I grew up with them and taking care of them. I raised my dog from a puppy until he was 17 years old as he grew into his older years I was his only caretaker and learned so much. I have the patience for the animals that don’t. I also volunteered at shelters as well as help walk my neighbors dogs. I currently own a cat and a dog. I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to look after and work with your pets. If anything comes up I will be vocal about it and let you know. Caring for your pet in your home would be tailored to exactly what you tell me, I would be very vocal about any changes in routine or me wanting to implement some games, exercises or treats for your pet. I would feed them, make sure they have water , bathe them if needed and take care of them as if they’re my own.
“Brittany was the best! She communicated the entire time and sent pictures too! I really appreciated the extra time and effort she also gave the girls when she was at my home! I’ll definitely be calling her again soon! ❤️🙏😻”

“Avery is amazing! My cats absolutely loved her. She is professional, friendly and great with animals. We had issues with a delayed flight home at the end of a trip and Avery came in clutch and was able to do a drop-in to check on our fur babies since we were going to be 4+hrs late from the airport. It was such a relief to know that our cats were well cared for.”

About: I grew up in a household with lots of animals, so I’ve always been around pets and naturally developed a love for caring for them. I’ve learned how to keep animals healthy, happy, and well taken care of, and I’m very responsible when it comes to their needs. Neighbors and friends have trusted me to walk their dogs, feed them, and care for them while they’re away. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was younger and genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I am in school mon-friday and get out at 12:45 so anytime after i am available. Available also after 4pm on saturdays. Pet care fits really well into my weekly and daily schedule. I get out of school at 1 o’clock, which gives me plenty of free time in the afternoons and evenings to walk dogs, do check-ins, or spend time caring for pets. I also work part-time as a hostess, but outside of that shift, my schedule is very open and flexible. Because of this, I’m able to reliably fit in pet care consistently during the week and on weekends. I have a lot of free time on my hands, so I’m able to give pets attention, care, and regular walks without rushing or being unavailable. I provide pet care in the client’s home, where the pet is already comfortable and familiar with their environment. I follow all instructions carefully to make sure their routine stays consistent, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I always make sure doors are secure, pets are supervised, and I pay close attention to their behavior and comfort. I treat each home with respect and make sure everything is left clean and exactly as I found it.

Ryan took such good care of Buffy (our Sphynx kitten) and did a great job communicating with us throughout each day. This was our first time leaving Buffy in someone else’s care and Ryan made it easy for us to leave without worrying. We will definitely ask Ryan to take care of Buffy again.

Avery is amazing! My cats absolutely loved her. She is professional, friendly and great with animals. We had issues with a delayed flight home at the end of a trip and Avery came in clutch and was able to do a drop-in to check on our fur babies since we were going to be 4+hrs late from the airport.
