Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Rancho San Rafael, Glendale, CA

“Tracy was so awesome with our dog Nalu. You can tell she has a lot of knowledge/experience with dogs and that she cares/enjoys what she does! Our dog is very smart and will try to finesse the system/us when given the chance, but I can tell Tracy had just the right energy/skills to keep up with him. I’ll definitely be recommending Tracy to our friends/family in the area :)”

“I had a wonderful experience with Kaylah! They were incredibly attentive, caring, and professional throughout the entire pet sitting period. My cats seemed happy and comfortable, and I felt completely confident leaving them in her care. Communication was prompt and clear, and I appreciated all the updates and photos. I highly recommend Kaylah to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

“Lorraine is wonderful and sent great update pics and notes! It’s clear she really loves the dogs and wants to give them a great day. Will definitely be working with her again!”

“Tamar is a special treat for your fur baby! Dudley is my 16-year nine month old senior, and she gave him the best care while I was on my 4 day get-away. She went above and beyond my expectations. I hesitate to say Tamar definitely will be my back-up for Dudley, because she may be overbooked!! 😃 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Might as well also be a goat sitter because she's the GOAT cat sitter. We've used her many times and she's always a rock star. Very thorough and thoughtful messages and tons of photos of the babies. Our one day had a cone this time and she was very good about that.”

About: Hello neighbors. My name is Juyen. My dream since I was a little girl was to have a dog of my own. I didn't have the fortune of having a dog until I was in high school, but ever since then, I've never stopped living with animals. They are the best companions and my fur family currently consists of Koa, the sweetest dog you’ll ever meet and Nino, a cat born in the ivy of my backyard and whom I have adopted (who is mostly an outdoor cat). I welcome dogs of all sizes with the exception of very large dogs, over 100 lbs, because who is walking who at that point ;) Koa is super friendly and gregarious with other dogs, but also knows to leave them alone if they let her know. I am able to walk your dog as often as needed. I have a modest backyard where they can sunbathe and enjoy the beautiful weather we have here. Additionally, my dog is allowed on the couch, but I'm happy to follow your lead so your dog maintains their manners consistently either at my place or elsewhere. Your dog will get all the attention and love they deserve with me. If your dog needs special care and attention due to a medical issue or old age, I can administer special food, pills or shots as requested. I have a 2 dog per care max for boarding so that I am able to give each dog the time and attention they deserve. I hope to be the favorite auntie to your dog and a home away from home when you need to leave town or life gets too busy. I am in between jobs at the moment and working towards realizing a passion project, so my availability is wide open other than when I take off on rock climbing adventures every once in a while. I am an honest, trustworthy and dependable person you can rely on to care for your dog. Try me out! Thanks for your consideration! I look forward to meeting you and your dog one day. I’m home all week these days, so I’m available to care for your pet when you’re at work or away from home. I have a backyard for potty breaks and love taking walks/jogs/hikes to break up the day. I have a fenced in yard and your pet will have access to all the public spaces of my home. I’m happy to house/pet sit if preferred as well.

“Cloe is doing a great job. Our puppy is well taken care of. She is always on time, never leaves a mess, accommodating and trust worthy. We were so lucky to find her!”

About: Hi everyone! My name is Amira and I have loved animals since I could create memories. Since I was 12 I volunteered at shelters and adoption centers. I also have extensive experience in training! I promise to care for your babies as I would care for my own and exceed all your expectations. Your dogs and cats will have so much fun while of course being safe. I work from home all days so I will have all day to play and care for your babies. I have my own baby as well so I can them both on walks and to dog parks if preferred. My home is a cozy but large 2 bedroom apartment with a patio and large unfenced yard. I have multiple doggy beds and toys around the house and lots of space for them to run and play. I have my baby Butter, as pictured. He is truly the most friendly and well behaved dog there is and he sleeps about 23 hours of the day. He has never hurt anyone or anything even when being attacked by dogs or children lol. I will keep him away from your puppy most of the time just for them to be the most comfortable and only allow them together if I see they are perfect and both happy and comfortable. I can easy crate your puppy or let them roam freely.

About: ABOUT ME 😊 I grew up with a pure bred 120 pound St. Bernard, two cats, and turtle to love and care for. I've also had three hamsters, two rabbits, and a ball python along the way, so animals have always been a part of my life and extended family. I'm relied upon by friends, neighbors, and family to petsit or walk their dogs when they're on vacation, sick, or injured. I love watching Cesar Milan's show, Better Human Better Dog, and have been inspired to pursue an animal trainer's certificate. I own and run a small business remotely from home and live with a cat and a dog. I occasionally see clients at my office a mile away for in-person sessions and am gone no longer than 4 to 5 hours when not at home. AT HOME 🏠 I live in a one bedroom apartment with a spacious living room, no yard, no carpet, with hardwood/tile flooring. My lifestyle is clean and minimal. I have an outgoing cat who thinks he's a dog and a sweet and easy going dog. They’re both playful, listen to commands, and get along with other friendly dogs, cats, and people. I strictly follow the owner's instructions and pet care routine given while adding, love, cuddles, and play time as needed. I also have separate room my cat/dog can stay in if the pet I'm sitting needs a little break from other animals or alone time with me. ON WALKS 🐕 When going on walks, I like to keep dogs close enough to avoid dangerous situations yet loose enough for them to explore. Unless the owner restricts it, socializing with other dogs is fine with me so long as the other dog is leashed and willing to socialize too. I grew up with a VERY large 120 pound St. Bernard and am experienced in walking large dogs that may bolt when getting excited, so keeping them calm and re-directing them to follow my lead is a must for their safety and well-being. I like to reward good behavior with love, attention, petting, and treats. Not-so-good behavior is re-directed in a calm and firm manner, but never reprimanded nor rewarded. Regardless of the pet's behavior, patience and understanding is key! MY POLICY ⭐ * NO PEE PADS ALLOWED. I only accept dogs that are fully housebroken and trained to relieve themselves outside. I live in an apartment and cannot afford to have other dogs smell any trace of pee/poo and be tempted to instinctually “over-mark” any “territory”. * A MEET & GREET IS REQUIRED prior to booking daycare and boarding requests. Daycare Hours: 7am-6pm, all other times are considered after-hours. Walking and Drop-In Hours: 7am-8pm, all other times are considered after-hours. Boarding Pick-up/Drop-off hours: 7am-8pm, all other times are considered after-hours. * Pick-up and drop-off times must be scheduled before booking. This helps makes sure all of your pup’s stuff is ready to go when you arrive. * If you are more than 15 minutes late for your scheduled drop-off or pick-up, it will need to be rescheduled and will be charged a $20 late fee (plus additional Rover fees). I generally can accommodate changes in travel plans, so please let me know when plans change. * Anything scheduled during after-hours requires a fee of $40 (plus additional Rover fees). Scheduling during after-hours is not guaranteed. * Please plan your booking accordingly and be on-time to avoid the cost of fees or extended care. If your flight times are during after-hours, consider dropping-off a day before or picking-up the next day. * Please provide the following items when boarding your pet: -Food/bowls -Poop bags -Leash/collar -Bed/blankets/toys/treats (optional) * IN CASE OF ILLNESS OR MEDICAL EMERGENCY, please be prepared to provide payment directly to the care facility if your pet requires medical attention in your absence. If your preferred veterinarian or 24 hour hospital is within 5 miles of my home, then please provide that info, otherwise I will choose the closest most convenient one. If an owner does not respond to my emergency calls or texts in a timely manner or fails to provide payment for medical care, then their pet will be subject to Rover’s emergency protocol under the “Rover Guarantee” policy. Please note that I cannot cover any costs to care for your pet any time for any reason.

About: What’s the most important thing all dog owners want to know before entrusting their dogs to a stranger? Well first of all I’m from Jersey. I’ll play with your dog, make sure they’re happy, take them on a walk, not lose them, and feed them only what you tell me to feed them. No human food, I promise. Unless of course that’s in your list of food to give them. Of course hydrate them as well. I know the do’s and don’ts of a dog’s diet since I have 2 of my own. I’ve also been fostering dogs on and off for the past 3 years. I am known to be reliable and responsible, so I can assure you that you can rest easy with leaving your dog(s) in my care. Or if you have a cat, I also get along super well with them since I also have 2 of my own! I work from home so I do have some flexibility or if you need eyes on your little one for long hours I will also be able to do that. I do have 2 cats so I have pet gates up to separate my cats from any dogs. The dogs get free roaming of the living room which tends to be enough for my two dogs plus any friends they’ve had over. Routine in my home is key. At your home, I’ll stick to your routine and respect your house rules. Whatever you require, it will be respected.

“Super kind and took great care of my cats!”

About: I’ve had pets since I was a kid. We had a mini daschund growing up and cats. I adopted my dog Batman 12 years ago and brought him to work with me until my job went remote in 2020. I prioritize staying home with my dogs and giving them a good quality of life. I’m great at training as well, let me know if there’s anything we could work on. I’m training using positive reinforcement only. Lots of treats and attention. If you are particular about anything I’m happy to stay consistent. Every pet is special to me. I’m going to school four days a week and am only out of the close for 2-4 hours at a time. I have pet stairs, pet beds and pet gates in every room. I let them follow me wherever they want unless they need special training at the time. I live in a quiet neighborhood on a great street for walking dogs. I know all the quiet routes, and there’s a park that’s about a fifteen minutes walk away. Im willing to adapt to whatever your pet needs. Just make sure to communicate what their needs are. I’m just a big animal nerd. I err on the side of overly safe. If the dog has any issues I’ll bring to vet or whatever it needs. Pets are family.

About: I have dog sat for many of my friends when they go out of town. I typically go to their house and feed/walk/play with them. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and can work around clients schedules as needed. I am looking forward to meeting your pups! My apartment is pretty small, but there’s a backyard area around the corner from my apartment that I can walk the dogs to and they can run around.
