Kyle was invaluable by looking after our reptiles on short notice that we were able to have peace of mind while abroad without having to board then. We definitely would recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.

Lijuan came over twice a day for 17 days while we went on an international vacation. Not only did she follow all my instructions carefully but she even made sure the apartment was tidy and clean for our return home. I know it was a lot of work, and we appreciate her so much for going above and beyond!

Shelby was so great with my pup! During her drop in visit, she gave her extra water, treats, and made sure she got some exercise by playing ball. I was definitely put at ease knowing my dog was well taken care of while I was working.

Joy gave great care to our beloved kitties. They were in the best mood when we came home and could tell how well she took care of them. She followed the detailed instructions we gave her. Joy was punctual and gave our fur babies more time than was required. I would book her every time !

We absolutely love, love, love Paul. This is the first time we've used Rover and were a little nervous at first, but Paul is just amazing. Paul has been stopping in to visit our puppy daily for about 5 weeks now and I think out dog loves him more than any of us. He is responsible and always on time. Cant say enough good things about him. He is now part of our family.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10 years old. I have personally lived with 5 cats during my life time and have taken care of dogs outside of my house for friends and family. Of those 5 cats, 3 I have taken care of until they passed away, so I know how to take care of both young and older animals. I am currently a behavior therapist for children with autism. I am a very patient and calm person that extends to both my personal and professional life. It is very important to me to get to have a good relationship with the pet that I am taking care of. I currently work part time as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. I am completely free on the weekends and have time early afternoon and late at night on weekdays to do drop ins or stay the night. I am more than willing to follow any care that is required for the pet in question. I will take the time the play with them, take them on walks, give them food, and medicine if that is something they need. I will make sure they treat your home respectfully as I know from experience that cats and dogs alike enjoy doing things with furniture that they are not supposed to. I will always make sure that your pet is happy and comfortable when around me.

We've rebooked Priscilla, and couldn't be more thrilled to have done so... we know our two kitties were happy to see her in November and December! She's so good with them, especially with Reina who needs insulin shots twice daily. Her attention to details, compassionate nature towards them and consistent information about them are all reasons we will continue to book Priscilla in the future.

About: Active, reliable young professional with 20+ years of experience training & caring for dogs of all breeds & sizes, across temperament and energy levels. Having been a proud dog owner (passed 2017), I do not currently live with any pets or children at home, allowing me to provide undivided, 1on1 attention to your pooch. Our pets play a key role in our ability to live happy lives, which is why I take sincere joy in devoting my time to owners who could use a helping hand (or walking legs). Despite the obvious job perks — aka “hanging out with dogs for money” — I take my responsibilities as a pet caregiver quite seriously. How can I care for your furry friend to best suit their needs and yours? Just reach out! — please feel free to share any and all special attention requests. Skills: - Commanding attention, even around distractions - Behavioral training, continuing basics, new habits - Punctual service for walks, drop ins, and other care - Getting Active! Walks, Runs, Playtime (indoor or outdoor), dependent on your pup’s needs & preferences including: toys, on-leash, light/fast pace, inside, etc. Whether your pup is a bundle of high-energy or more of a gentle spirit who takes life at their own pace, I will get them the exercise and attention they need. If you’re looking for a compassionate canine caregiver to feed, play with, or simply just spend time with your 4-legged best friend, I’m your guy! Thanks for reading, Kia F. —ABOUT ME— I work remotely full-time and regularly block time for daily exercise (early morning, noon, evening). I can be flexible for walks & drop-ins depending on your needs — if interested in recurring bookings, let’s chat more. For boarding, daycare or house sitting visits, you can expect me to be fully available during 100% of the stay. Walks and runs are my favorite part of my day! I’m available bright and early (7am/8am), around lunchtime (12pm), and once again in the early evening (2pm/3pm). *For boarding requests 4+ weeks out, please inquire directly about specific dates. Refer to my calendar, as I do my best to keep it updated 4-6 weeks in advance. Trust & safety is my #1 priority; I am home full-time during any boarding or daycare stay. I also have trusted & experienced sitters on-hand should I need to run out. Your pet’s safety & wellbeing come first, and I treat every one of my clients’ pets like members of my own family. **Ensuring the Match!** I’m a big proponent of Meet & Greets (though optional), as they’re a great way to know me and ensure total compatibility! I’ve yet to meet a dog I didn’t love; we’ll ensure your pup likes me too! :) Get to know me and you’ll quickly find that I’m truly passionate about dogs and providing the highest quality of care possible (1-1). During bookings, you can expect me to be highly communicative, adaptable, and thoughtful in meeting your needs as well as your pet’s. I hold myself to extremely high standards when it comes to your dog’s safety and happiness.

She was so good with Jessica. Usually she's super shy with new people and she immediately im ate treats from Anne. Her energy was great. Clearly she has a connection with the animals. It was less hard going on a trip knowing my cat was in good hands. She also sent the cutest photos.

About: I manage a puppy yoga company so I have tons of experience with young dogs. I have also been a dog sitter for adult and senior dogs for 10 years. I am CPR & First Aid certified for dogs & puppies! I am a professional dancer; auditioning and taking classes is my current schedule. I’m home for the good majority of every day and I love to go for long walks. I have no other pets; I live in a safe area and a building with many other dogs. My building has elevators, so there is easy access outside!

About: (Booking acceptable Jun -Aug) Hi Pasadena fur parents 💛 I’m Yoko, originally from Japan and now living in Pasadena after spending the last few years in Naples, Italy. As a Navy officer’s wife, I’ve been part of close-knit communities where I became the go-to dog walker and sitter for both American and local families. My husband, MD, is also a huge dog lover, and together we’re excited to share our home and give plenty of love to the dogs we care for. People often call me an animal whisperer, I naturally connect with dogs of all personalities, even the shy or reactive ones. I genuinely love animals and treat every pup like part of my family. Whether it’s caring for energetic puppies or giving gentle attention to senior dogs, I approach each one with patience, affection, and respect for their unique needs. I work from home, so your pup will have plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. I’m also in the process of applying to volunteer at the Pasadena Humane Society to continue learning and giving back to the animal community. Living right in front of Central Park means your dog gets plenty of fresh air, sunshine, and space to explore. Whether you prefer sitting at your place, mine, or just need a reliable walker, I’m flexible and happy to help. Let’s make your dog’s day a little brighter! I’d love to be your trusted new fur friend! 🐕‍🦺🐕🦮🐩🤍 I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. Whether your pup needs early morning energy or evening cuddles, I can adjust to their needs. My flexible schedule also allows me to accommodate last-minute requests when needed. I provide a calm, loving, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can feel safe and at home. I live in a pet-welcoming apartment right across from Central Park, so your pup will enjoy regular walks, fresh air, and a nice balance of play and rest. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and bed if that’s what they’re used to. I want them to feel completely comfortable and cared for. I’m happy to care for multiple dogs at a time, as long as their personalities are compatible, and I always take time to help each dog feel secure, especially if they’re shy or new to the space. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routines and preferences closely to keep things familiar for your dog. I’m respectful, tidy, and always communicate regularly with updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

Diana took great care of our two dogs. I appreciated the pictures she uploaded with every visit. I could really see how happy the dogs were playing and getting a chance to stroll outside. Her schedule seemed a bit complex, and we had to make some last minute changes, but she was professional and very communicative.

Camille was an amazing cat sitter! As a cat owner herself, she truly understands how much cat parents care about their pets and the little details that matter. She was very responsive, reliable, and always on time. I felt completely at ease knowing my cats were in such caring and capable hands. She kept me updated, followed all instructions carefully, and treated my cats with genuine love and attention. I highly recommend Camille to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional pet sitter. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!
