“Caleb was great! I had to leave early Friday and he was going to be at the house around 2. Since I left at 6 that morning he went ahead and got there a couple hours early to get the dogs out sooner with them being inside for 6+ hours. He kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos throughout his stay. I will definitely be booking with Caleb on my next trip!”
About: I've been sitting big breed dogs and have had them since I was a kid. If I could, I would have a dozen of them, but for now, I will babysit your dog. I work from home, and my partner also has a flexible schedule, so they are usually around too, providing your dog with companionship, attention, and supervision throughout the day. Walks, backyard playtime, enrichment, and plenty of snuggles are part of my daily routine. We value kindness, inclusivity, respect, and emotional safety. Our home is a judgment-free zone for people and pets. I have a fenced yard, nothing to jump off, and a friendly rescue yellow Labrador/pittie mix who loves to play with dog visitors. He is also great at reading dog body language and at giving new visitors their space until they are ready to engage. I’m experienced with dogs who have restrictions - physical, food sensitivities or allergies - or just need extra time settling in. As a former volunteer with Southern California Labrador Rescue, I fostered and pulled dogs from shelters. I understand the unique needs — and big hearts — that often come with rescue dogs. I love both in-home boarding and house sitting. Staying in a client’s home gives me a peaceful change of scenery for my writing and allows dogs to stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m available to house sit throughout Southern California. I work from home full-time, Monday-Friday. On weekends, we typically garden, cook, and go for walks or hikes. Snuggles, backyard playtime, and lots of interaction time are a critical part of my day with your dog. I am a homeowner with a fenced yard in a gated neighborhood, a rescue mutt to keep your dog company, and a cat. My teenager is also a dog lover who spoils our Charlie. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and on the bed. I have dog beds, lots of water bowls, and time for pets. Our dog is a big hunk of love at 116 lbs, and I have always had big dogs. He LOVES having dog friends at the house.
“Kaitlin was wonderful with Lucky! She is very punctual and responsible, and made sure to listen to Lucky's needs. She took very good care of him, and I was all relaxed when I was out. I will definitely get her again!”
“Graham was fantastic. Very personable, great with our pup, Midna, and he's an excellent communicator. He showed up early to meet us and Midna immediately loved him. We felt very comfortable trusting him with our dog and our home. We will happily use Graham again, and highly recommend him to anyone who wants someone trustworthy and kind to watch their pup. (Thanks Graham!)”
“Allisa was so great with my girl! She sent photos of daily activities which really out my mind at ease while being away. So happy to find someone who loves pups as much as I do. Highly recommend!”
“Kristine did a wonderful job caring for all of our pets! We have two dogs, a cat, and two hens -- and she took wonderful care of them while we were gone. She sent photos and videos every day, and let us know when they were fed. I never worried about them because she kept us updated so well. I will definitely be turning to Kristine to take care of our pets in the near future!”
About: I love animals; always have! I used to come home from school and do homework in front of Animal Planet and when it wasn't doing that I was taking care of my neighbor's pets. They had cats, dogs and horses and I looked forward to it every time. My responsibilities included walking, playing, feeding and even reading to them (which I have on good authority was very adorable). I'm very excited to take care of your fur babies for you now! *Ask me about Active & Running services* **Ask me about Pet Portraiture Add-ons** I am currently taking online classes and looking forward to being with animals when I can part time. I am looking forward to meeting new pets and taking care of them in between bouts of homework and studying. I am available for most services! Including drop-in check-ins, letting dogs out to do their business or go on walks or play with your pets. I'm also available to pet-sit and keep them company while they relax in their space. After meeting your pets and learning their specific and unique needs, likes or dislikes, I am available to feed, walk, play most days.
About: I've had experience caring for my own dogs and pet-sitting for friends, neighbors, and families! I am very patient with animals with behavioral issues, my own dog has anxiety and I understand that it takes time to build trust with new people. I'm always happy to play, give lots of love and special attention. I am staying in California for the summer between semesters, so my schedule is completely open for caring for pets. I'm happy to spend as much time as possible with animals and I'd love to be able to help people out that want the best for their pets! I make sure that the pets get enough exercise/time outside, that they're getting enough to eat and drink, and going to the bathroom regularly. I will clean up after any messes that they make, I know how anxiety or excitement can affect pets. I've had experience giving medication to dogs before, so I understand the schedule of that, if needed.
“Cat Z is a Great Pet Sitter. I received pictures and updates a couple times a day. We were very happy and had a great time in Dallas Wedding. Our home was left clean, dogs were happy and I give her a 10+++++. Thanks Cat.....I will be contacting you soon.. Tonto and Trumps mom and dad.”

“We will definitely hire Caitlyn again. She handled 4 senior dogs and 1 energetic five year old dog beautifully. The seniors all require medications, one needs insulin injections, so ya, she handled a lot, reported on how they were, walked them. We couldn’t be more pleased.”
“She did great watching our puppy and elderly dog in our home, followed my requests closely and sent me updates regularly. She even did some training with our puppy and cleaned up before she left. Thank you so much for the peace of mind!”
“Yessica was excellent! She was punctual, polite, experienced and our dog loved her. He’s not easily accepting, but he really took to her. She sent pics daily and kept us up to date during the visit. We highly recommend.”
“Lexy is an excellent and dependable dog-sitter! I’m certainly booking her again next time. She gives regular and detailed updates with many photos. My dog is about 80 lbs and causes lots of mischief, and she handled everything with ease. Highly recommend!”

He kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos throughout his stay. I will definitely be booking with Caleb on my next trip!
Brigette watched our active Aussie overnight at our house for a week. She sent amazing photos (ha she’s really good at taking photos) and even videos and really spent time playing with and getting to know our dog, I could tell by some of the cute things she’s told me in the daily summary she sent! We also had some strawberries and side patio plants that needed watered every day and she even helped with that and we returned to a spotless house (which is hard to do by the amount that our dog sheds)! It’s clear to me that Brigette is very much an animal lover. When we first met her she had a lot of questions and wanted to make sure she kept our dog’s schedule too. We had the best vacation knowing we didn’t have to worry about our baby at home! Thank you Brigette!
Rosemary is truly an exceptional dog sitter. From the start she was kind, considerate and incredibly accommodating, even stepping in on short notice which was such a lifesaver. She has a warm, loving presence and gave my pup so much care and attention. Her great attention to detail and thoughtful communication, with regular updates and adorable pictures, gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. When I returned from my weekend trip, my dog was honestly disappointed to see me instead of Rosemary, which says it all. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate and attentive sitter.
Kylie is great! We’ve booked her twice now and she’s been communicative and reliable. We’ve felt very comfortable having her stay in our home while we’re away and our pets are well cared for, as is our home. She’s gone out of her way to help bringing in packages and running the dishwasher before she leaves. She is reliable, considerate, and I highly recommend booking her.
