CANNOT RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH. She was so kind, attentive, and loving to our pup. She messaged us multiple updates and photos throughout the day and I know our boy had a wonderful time. I will definitely utilize Gabrielle services again in the future!

Elissa was a great sitter for our 13 week old pup. She took her time to meet and get comfortable with our puppy. She was in constant communication with us throughout the day and sent us pictures and updates on her behavior. We felt really comfortable leaving her in our house and everything was kept neat and tidy. We would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.

Mike did a great job with our crew while we were traveling over Spring Break. We have one dog who takes some time warm up, but she was calm and easy with Mike and was behaving well throughout his stay. Mike watched both our cats and dogs, followed their schedule and kept us in the loop. He was responsive and easy to work with. Highly recommend.

Jennifer did a terrific job of taking care of my two dogs while I was gone for the week. She stayed at my house and sent me plenty of photos of the dogs so my kids wouldn’t miss them. I highly recommend her services to others, and I look forward to using her services again in the near future.

About: I have always been involved in pet care in my home for over 15 years. I have had experience with elderly dogs and cats of my own. I have pet-sitted in my neighborhood for puppies and for breeds different from my own dogs. I will use my energy to play with your pet and hopefully decrease their energy. I have a very flexible schedule since graduating college and I am looking to spend my time studying and taking the MCAT. I have lots of time and availability for stop-ins during the day or bringing study materials to a client’s home. My yard is fenced in and I can take dogs for a walk in Brookdale Park nearby. I will administer medicine and play with dogs and provide them with a cuddly environment.

About: For a little over four years I've been the go-to pet sitter for my coworkers when they go on vacation. I've researched all things related to dogs pretty much from the moment I learned to use a computer because I've spent almost all my life trying to convince my parents to get a dog. Spoiler alert, I was unsuccessful ): but not for lack of trying ("dogs are too big of a financial commitment" according to them... but four kids isn't??? but I digress lol)! Training has always been fascinating to me, it never fails to amaze me how smart dogs are! Overall I just love their energy and how loving they can be, being around dogs is truly therapeutic and does wonders for your mental health! You're so blessed to have one in your life and I would be honored to care for them (: <3 Sunday-Wednesday and Friday I work 7-3 and I’m off all day on Thursday and Saturday! Currently taking a break from school, so as soon as I get out of work I'll be free to devote my time to your doggies (: I live in a big apartment with a home office that I turn into the doggy room essentially although they are welcome to roam throughout the apartment of course! My neighborhood is very walkable (one of my favorite things about where I live) and I’m about a mile and a half away from like 3 parks!

About: I feel what makes me different from other candidates is that I have treats for them. I make sure they are always comfortable. I give you updates on how they are doing. I know as dog parents sometimes we stress of knowing how they are. I also have been working taking care of dogs since I was 15. It was helped me learn a lot through the years Taking care of your fur baby fits in my daily routine because I have extra time and I enjoy going on walks and they bring so much joy. What makes my home safe is that I live a safe area. There is a park across the street across the street. They also get the backyard. There are no kids and they will monitored.

About: I have spent my life as a dedicated caregiver for dogs, ranging from high-energy shelter environments to specialized in-home senior care. Having grown up in a multi-pet household, I have transitioned into the primary sitter for my family whenever they travel, managing everything from exercise routines to complex medical needs. What truly sets me apart is my hands-on experience with diabetic dogs; I am fully comfortable and proficient in administering insulin injections and maintaining the strict feeding schedules required for their health. Additionally, my time volunteering at a local dog shelter has given me a deep understanding of canine body language and the patience needed to work with different temperaments. Whether your pet needs a high-energy walk or attentive medical monitoring, I provide the same level of care, safety, and reliability that I give to my own family’s dogs. As I am currently transitioning into the film industry here in Los Angeles, I have the unique advantage of a highly flexible and open schedule. This allows me to make pet care my primary priority throughout the day. Because I am not tied to a traditional 9-to-5 office routine, I am available for mid-day walks, last-minute check-ins, or consistent oversight for pets that require specialized medical attention, such as insulin injections. Whether your pet needs a structured routine or extra companionship while you are on set or at the office, I can easily adapt my day to mirror their specific needs and ensure they are never left alone for extended periods. Safety is my top priority, and I treat every client's home with the utmost respect and care. When house sitting, I follow all home security protocols, including double-checking locks, managing alarm systems, and ensuring gates are fully latched before letting a pet outside. Because of my experience with diabetic and senior dogs, I am extremely detail-oriented; I keep a clean and organized 'medical station' for supplies and strictly follow all dosage and timing instructions for medications. During walks, I never allow unsupervised interactions with strange dogs and remain constantly aware of my surroundings to avoid potential stressors. Whether I am staying overnight or dropping in, I provide frequent photo updates and clear communication so you can feel confident that both your home and your pets are in safe, capable hands.

About: I love animals, most of the time I'd rather interact and show compassion towards pets over people. Growing up we had SIX indoor cats while also caring for a feral cat colony in our backyard. Very familiar with all aspects of pet care, I have volunteered at a couple local shelters such as HAAL & Tabby's Place. My father's family used to train and show German Shepherds, so while I've never owned my own dog I am very comfortable caring for and walking pups. I'm an athletic male with the strength to safely walk bigger, stronger dogs. In another life I would have dedicated myself to becoming an actual veterinarian. Very passionate about your fur babies and the bond that most people share with their animals! Open availability during the week, morning & night. Walks, pet care, pet sitting and overnights. Weekends are scheduled but still open enough to take on a couple commitments. Walks & pet care, NO overnights unless scheduled a week before I prioritize the safety and well-being of both pets and their owners in every service I provide. In my own home, I maintain a secure, clean, and pet-friendly environment, ensuring all pets have a comfortable space tailored to their needs. In clients' homes, I respect their space while ensuring pets are safe and well cared for. I follow all feeding, medication, and exercise routines precisely, secure doors and gates to prevent escapes, and monitor pets for any signs of stress or discomfort. Hygiene is a top priority—I sanitize hands and equipment between visits to prevent cross-contamination. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners."

Chris did an amazing job watching our dog Gobi and we will definitely have him watch him again in the future! He has a very calm, comforting demeanor which helped our nervous guy feel safe. But he also loved playing with him and tired him out nicely for us! He went above and beyond by taking him out for 3 extra walks and even brought one of our packages inside the house. I also loved the picture updates he sent us! Thank you Chris, see you soon!

I can’t say enough good things about Elizabeth. She was wonderful with my dog Janie. She provided updates, stuck to Janie’s schedule, gave her medications, and bonded with her. Janie was very upset to see Elizabeth leave. Janie is a flight risk, and an anxious dog and she was at ease and safe with Elizabeth. I’m so thankful to have found her.
