Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Playa Vista

About: I specialize in cat sitting, I grew up with 2 cats, and now have one on my own! I love animals with all of my heart. I started pet sitting for friends and family for free, but eventually branched out. I promise to take lovely care for your fur babies <3 For the summer, I will be pet sitting full time so I am free very often for walks and drop ins! I love being outside so walking dogs is a favorite of mine. I am happy to drop by multiple times a day for feedings and walks! I don’t do boarding at my house, but I always make sure to respect the owns rules and regulations to make sure all pets (and owners) feel safe and comfortable! I am able to tell when an animal is uncomfortable, so I make sure to give them space and let them get comfortable on their own terms.

“Rossana was very professional and she even agreed to do a quick meet and greet at our home beforehand. She took great care of our cats. I would highly recommend booking her to care for your pets.”

“Samuel is excellent with my 11 year old girl. She loves him and is very conscientious of her needs. I feel much better with him taking care of her. I don't have to worry like I have had to do in the past. Always shows up and does what he says. He asks questions when he has them and even for permission before doing something with her.”

About: Animals have been a cherished part of my lived experience for as long as I can remember, as my family has always had at least 1 dog and 1 cat, and often more. As those animals grew older, I observed and learned from the ways the passage of time was made more gentle upon them, and of how the proactive steps and preventative measures were always the most effective, and least painful, not to mention the least expensive. Extending the time where they can be playful and engaged with the world around them is a truly precious thing. Currently, I live with 2 dogs and 2 cats, among other creatures, and do daily Physical Therapy exercises with the dogs before each walk. Rover is currently my primary focus, so I'm very flexible! Only a few normal appointments, all of which can be rescheduled with 24hour notice. I have a lot of experience reading the body language of animals, and know how to respect the space of your animals so they don't feel threatened.

About: Hi! I’m Carmen, I am I life-long animal lover and I specialize in caring for small, medium and senior, or low-energy dogs who thrive in a slow-paced, cozy environment. Whether your pup needs boarding or day care, they’ll get lots of one-on-one attention, walks, naps, and a calm daily rhythm. I only take one guest dog at a time to keep things peaceful and personal. I work from home, so I’m around to provide steady companionship, regular potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. What I Offer: • One guest dog at a time • Small/medium breeds or seniors only • Quiet, low-stress environment • Ideal for shy, anxious, or elderly dogs • Frequent photo updates • Quick communication • Lots of attention I would love to meet your pup and help them feel right at home. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to see if we’re the right fit! I work from home, so I’m able to give lots of attention throughout the day. My schedule is consistent, which creates a relaxed environment for visiting dogs. Walks, meals, and cuddle breaks easily fit into my daily rhythm—and my chihuahua Cathy is always happy to have a friend around. Because I only take one dog at a time, each pup gets focused, attention in a peaceful setting. In my home, I offer a safe space where dogs can relax. I keep the environment quiet and low-stress, with soft bedding, plenty of fresh water, walks, and companionship. If I’m caring for a pet in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure your pet feels secure and well cared for in their own environment. I follow feeding, walk, and medication instructions carefully, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve loved and taken care of dogs since I was 10 years old and live with 14 year old Sparta (foster fail). I also had a border collie mix that lived to 16.5 also who passed 3 years ago. I also fostered dogs and one of them would stay with us when her parents traveled. I’ve watched friends dogs and done dog sitting trade on Woody club. I’m currently not working so your fur baby will get my full attention. If I leave the house, it’s not for more than a few hours. I won’t take more than one persons pet(s) at a time. I have a fenced in yard and the area has nice sidewalks to walk your pet. It is a nice, residential area in Del Rey just 4 miles from LAX and you can park your car on street here too.

“Alex is amazing! So communicative, always on time, and so engaging with our cat Pashmina! She plays with her for the full amount of time per session, and gives great updates after every visit! Definitely recommend Alex for any of your pet needs!”

“Awa is absolutely WONDERFUL! She is incredibly caring, honest, dependable, responsible and trustworthy. She has an immense love for dogs and will treat yours as if they were her own. She went above and beyond to ensure my baby was safe, was fed and had plenty of love while I was away at work. Being a dog owner herself, she understands how anxious and worried a dog parent can be when they can't be with their pup. She really went above and beyond-always letting me know when she was on her way and providing updates and photos to ensure that he was a happy boy. In addition, she always made sure she was on time when visiting Rico-not because it was a job-but because of her genuine care and concern for the well-being of my dog. I would 100% recommend Awa to care for your pet. I will definitely be asking her to return for future visits!! :)”

About: I currently have 3 dogs - a frenchie, a yorkie/retriever mix, and a blue heeler/border collie mix. I absolutely love dogs and treat them like my family. I currently work from home so I have the flexibility to do dog walks and pet sitting. For boarding, I’m at home the majority of the day. I have a fenced in yard with a doggie door and access to a grass backyard. I also have 3 friendly dogs - 2 seniors that sleep all day and a border collie mix that loves to play!

“This was our first time working with Abby and she’s excellent! She picked up on the animal’ routines very quickly, was always responsive and overall very solid. We appreciated her clear communication, the summaries of each visit and the nice pictures. We felt very comfortable with Abby in charge and will definitely work with her again.”

I want to get a dog of my own soon and I'm using Rover as a way to get more experience with dogs in the meantime! I love all breeds but especially love medium to big dogs! I have a dog park near my house and I have a car so I could drive to your house if needed! I hope to meet your pup soon and I can't wait to get to know them :)
