Pet Sitting Palos Verdes Estates

“Catherine is the BEST! Hands down, the best dog sitter! This is our third time having Catherine care for our dog and once again, it was a great experience. We love that she sends detailed messages with photos after each visit. She not only makes sure of dog is cared for but also our home. She makes the home looked lived in while we’re away and I’m so appreciative of her services. Thank you, Catherine! ☺️🐶”

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles, and other pets over the years. I especially have extensive experience with cats and have been caring for my own cat for 7 years. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I take the time to get to know them and let them warm up to me at their own pace. I’m a full-time online student, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care. I’m responsible, patient, and very attentive to each pet’s individual routine and personality. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I always treat pets with the same kindness and care I would want for my own. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and any other instructions you leave for me. I also love sending updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away!

About: My Specialty: Little Dogs, Lots of Love! 🐾 Little dogs have a special place in my heart! I especially love caring for affectionate companion dogs, including Maltipoos, Cavapoos, Shih Tzus, Havanese, Bichons, and mini Goldendoodles. I've spent over eight years loving and caring for my own mini Goldendoodle and have two years of professional pet and house-sitting experience through a different app, where I've earned 14 excellent reviews. Whether your little one is a playful bundle of personality or a devoted cuddle buddy, I provide warm, personalized care that feels like home. I especially enjoy caring for friendly, well-socialized small dogs who appreciate companionship, gentle walks, playtime, and plenty of affection. My goal is simple: happy little dogs and complete peace of mind for their people. You can see my reviews from a different pet sitting app in the photo section of my profile. I enjoy a relaxed, flexible lifestyle that allows me to make plenty of room for the little dogs in my care. I love walks, fresh air, playtime, and quiet moments with a furry companion by my side. I plan my schedule around each dog's needs, whether that means morning walks, afternoon snuggles, or a little extra companionship throughout the day. I'll always discuss your dog's routine and how much time they can comfortably spend alone before confirming a booking. Your dog's safety, comfort, and happiness are my priorities. I specialize in small dogs and provide a calm, loving environment where they can feel secure and receive individualized attention. I'll follow your dog's familiar routines, respect their boundaries, and pay close attention to their comfort, energy, and behavior. I believe trust is built through patience, consistency, affection, and thoughtful care. When staying in your home, I'll treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. My experience through Trusted House Sitters has taught me how important it is to honor both your pet's routine and your household preferences. You can expect regular photos, updates, and open communication, so you'll know how your little companion is doing while you're away. I also love arranging a meet-and-greet before booking to make sure everyone feels comfortable and it's a wonderful fit!

About: I grew up in a home with pets (dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and rabbits!), so animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From ages 10 to 18, I helped care for our family pets, including making sure they were fed and attended to. It was a great foundation for a lifelong love of animals, and I've found that I tend to gain their trust pretty quickly! Since then, I've cared for pets of my own, including a foster cat, a rabbit, and birds. I've also spent about a year house- and dog-sitting, so I have experience caring for someone else's pets and home while they're away. I'm a responsible, patient, and attentive person who understands how important it is to know your pets are safe and well cared for when you're away. I take commitments seriously, pay attention to instructions, and believe in treating every animal with kindness and respect. I'd love the opportunity to get to know your pets, learn their individual personalities and routines, and help make their days a little happier! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate pet-care visits throughout the week. I'm happy to coordinate with pet parents to find times that work for their pets' routines, whether that's a morning visit, an afternoon walk, or some company while they're away. I value consistency and communication, and I'll always make sure we're clear on expectations before confirming a booking. Inviting someone to care for your pet is an act of trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. They're family, friends, even "doctors" and "therapists" (the healing power of unconditional love from our animal friends is unrivaled). When caring for pets in their own homes, I follow the owner's instructions carefully, respect their space, and do my best to keep their pets comfortable and their routines consistent. I'll pay close attention to feeding instructions, access to water, securing doors and gates, and any special preferences or concerns you share. I'm also happy to provide photos and updates so you can feel reassured while you're away.

“My husband and I were new to the area and needed a dog walker for our two Great Danes in a hurry. Judy came to our rescue and our pups love her! I always have peace of mind knowing our dogs are looked after and cared for.”

About: I've been a dog lover and dog owner my entire life and currently share my home with my 2-year-old Mini Australian Labradoodle. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and care throughout the day. I love being active and am happy to take dogs on long walks and provide exercise and playtime for dogs who enjoy being active. At the same time, I understand that some dogs are true companion dogs who simply want to be close to their people. I'm happy to provide plenty of physical proximity, affection, cuddles, and companionship and will always pay attention to your dog's individual comfort level and personality. I also have experience administering medication and caring for dogs with different needs. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and anything that may help your dog feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I also have two dog-loving children, ages 9 and up, who have grown up around dogs and love giving them extra affection—while I will always be your dog's primary caregiver and responsible for their care. Most importantly, I genuinely love dogs and understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I would treat your dog with the same love, attentiveness, and care that I give my own. I work from home as a nutritionist and personal trainer, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Because I have a flexible schedule and am home throughout much of the day, I can provide regular potty breaks, walks, exercise, companionship, and plenty of attention. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, and I love having dogs as part of my day. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I believe every pet has different needs, so I take the time to learn about their routine, personality, preferences, and any special instructions before caring for them. In my home, dogs will be treated as part of the family and closely supervised. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, exercise, and routines to help your dog feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in a client's home, I am respectful of both your home and your pet's routine. I will make sure they have fresh food and water, exercise and companionship as needed, and will always ensure doors and gates are secure and your pet is safe before leaving. We have a fenced in back yard.

“Paige was an amazing caregiver for our cats. She showed them so much love and attention in addition to taking care of them. I look forward to her taking care of them again in the future!”

About: Hi, I’m Fibie! I’m a 22-year-old nursing student who would love the opportunity to care for your pets like they’re my own. I have two dogs of my own—a 6-year-old terrier mix who is my best friend and loves to cuddle, and a playful 7-month-old American Bully who keeps me on my toes! I’ve grown up around pets my whole life and have experience caring for the pets of family and friends. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members, and my goal is to make pet care one less thing for you to worry about. Whether you’re busy, traveling, or simply need an extra hand, I’m here to provide your pets with plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. I can’t wait to meet your pets, get to know their personalities, and make some new furry friends! I am a nursing student with a flexible schedule, offering reliable, loving pet care throughout the week and weekends, including walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays. I prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and supervised at all times. My two dogs get regular walks and outdoor time in our secure, turf-covered backyard. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine, including crate training if needed, or allow them to roam while I keep a close eye on them.

About: Hi, I’m Claudia! I’m based in the South Bay with my dogs, Cody and Rocky. I offer caring walks and drop-in visits, following your pet’s routine and sharing photos and updates. I speak English and Spanish! Introductory offer: A second dog from the same household walks free when both dogs walk well together. Since I’m not working during the day, my schedule is very flexible, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time to providing attentive and reliable pet care. I would love to start walking dogs, ensuring they get the exercise, care, and attention they need while bringing joy to their day. Thank you!

“Courtney did an amazing job with our little Maltese Teddy. It was his first time being left at home and he can be quite nervous around new people. Courtney came twice a day to feed and walk Teddy and reassured us with notes and photos that all was well. Highly recommend Courtney’s service and would use her again and again. THANK YOU!!!”

About: My Pet Care Journey My family always had a variety of pets, from dogs and cats to ferrets and racoons. While I have loved animals since I was a toddler , I bring over 20 years of dedicated, hands-on experience. This includes caring for family and friends pets and the privilege of sharing my life with my own dog for 17 beautiful years. Training & Connection My dog was my constant companion—joining me at college and every job I held. She was incredibly intelligent, and we had a unique bond; people often joked that she could understand human conversation. I trained her to do everything from giving high fives, hugs, and "volume-controlled" speaking, to solving puzzles and even climbing trees. I love engaging dogs with challenges and brain games to keep them mentally stimulated, not just physically tired. Our Rehabilitation Journey My deepest experience comes from the battles we fought together. When my 75lb dog suddenly became paralyzed after a dental cleaning, I dedicated myself to her recovery. Through patience and intense physical therapy, I successfully nursed her back to walking condition. When she faced a second, more severe episode later in life, we went right back to work with that same determination. I spent months managing her limited mobility, hygiene, and daily PT exercises. Although she eventually passed from gallbladder issues, those experiences taught me exactly what goes into complex care: the lifting, the mechanics of movement, and most importantly, the patience required to help a dog heal. My Approach Whether your dog needs a fun companion for hikes and brain games or a patient partner for recovery exercises, I provide the same level of devotion I gave my own best friend. Flexible & Available Since I am focusing on pet care full-time, I have great flexibility! I am available 7 days a week for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I can easily adjust to your dog's specific routine rather than trying to squeeze them into a tight schedule, and I'm often available for last-minute bookings. Peace of Mind My experience nursing my own dog through recovery taught me how to handle unexpected situations with a cool head. I know that safety is in the details. ​Mindful Care: I am detail-oriented when it comes to securing gates, doors, and harnesses, so you never have to worry. ​Medical Comfort: Because of my background with senior dogs, I am comfortable spotting if a pup isn't feeling well and knowing when to act. ​Reliable: I cared for my own dog for 17 years, rain or shine. You can count on me to show up on time and treat your home and pet with that same level of respect.

“Gwen is the best! Hope to use her for all my pet care needs.”

About: I have over 30 years experience with small breed dogs. I so miss having my own dog for the time being, that I decided to babysit not because I need the money but because of my love for dogs. It's been a wonderful rewarding experience! Since I only take ONE dog per stay, they get all my attention, lot's of play time and love. I will consider 2 dogs if from the same family/client. I have a lovely home near the beach with a fenced in yard. Think of it as a "spa getaway" for your fur baby. I prefer them to be potty trained, but no worries I will work with them. We can have play time in the yard and I would be home with them during their stay. I can take them on walks around my neighborhood if you like. I live in a safe community near the beach. I adore animals and will take great care of your baby while you are gone! I can't wait to meet your special family member and see if we are a fit! I work remote from home Mon - Fri and have alot of flexibility. Plus I have most weekends available. I am fully 100% focused on the dogs I watch. I have toys, a dog bed," my bed" and lots of green grass to run around and play. I have a large backyard that is fully fenced in, lots of room to play and explore. For sleeping, I can crate your dog if you prefer, but I usually have them sleep with me and they have a wonderful front view window to look outside at the neighborhood while on my bed. I currently work remote and have a very easy schedule. Dogs love to sit with me, play in the yard, look out the window and go for walks if you request. Safety is my #1 priority. I have a fenced yard, completly secure with plenty of grass to run around and play! It's a beautiful, tropical, relaxing environment and dogs love my yard. I never leave them unattended at any time.

About: I have had dogs in my family ever since I could remember. As an adult, I have had my own dogs for the last five years - Star and Popsicle are my world! I am comfortable walking two dogs at a time, administering medicines, and if there is anything else your pet may need, I have probably handled it myself before. I have cared for other people's pets on and off for years as well and have handled many situations with ease. I currently have a very flexible, open schedule that can accommodate any specific walk times or potty breaks. I can assist any time of day, any day of the week. Hello! Trusting me with your beloved pet means that they will be taken care of with all the love and attention that I give my own two dogs. I am patient, attentive, and kind in my care, and I genuinely love being around any pets! From feeding to enriching walks, I want to make sure your pet feels safe and happy while you are away.

“Laura took care of our cat. She is great and was prompt with her visits. Highly recommend!”
