“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!”

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.
“Hailey was a big help to us this week and was able to stay in our home on a short notice. We have two older dogs and a cat. One dog is deaf and requires diapers, and another has just gone blind and Hailey handled these difficulties easily. Having Hailey around was a peace of mind that our pets weren’t lonely while we were gone and looked after. We also have a lot of plants, which Hailey watered and ensured didn’t die! We’ll definitely be rebooking!!”

“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!)”

“Joseph has helped us three times now. He house sits for us and he’s always there when he says he will be there. The dogs love him. I feel a peace of mind when he’s stays with them. He sends pictures and updates.”
“Cat was wonderful! Our pets loved her from the moment she came for the meet and greet. She took great care of them while we were gone and provided daily updates. Cat is very trustworthy, punctual, and we plan on booking her again for the next time we travel. Highly recommend hiring Cat to take care of your fur babies!”
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.
“Madalyn was fantastic with our pup, Midna (who absolutely loved her). She’s highly communicative, showed up on time, very sweet, and knowledgeable. Our pup is very high energy and Madalyn knew exactly how to calmly handle her. We couldn’t be happier to have found her. We highly recommend her.”

“Trinity took care of our dog and cat for 2 weeks. She made sure to send me pictures, videos and updates on my girls! I felt like she really cared and treated my babies with lots of love. I will definitely be using her again.”

About: I consider pets the same as children when it comes to care taking needs. I will take care of them like if it’s my own. I love what I do. Overall, I have tones of experience not with pets but also with animals. I also would volunteer at a animal shelter the one by highland park. In fact, I like to call myself a PetCare Specialist because I don’t just come feed your dogs, go for a quick walk, play and then leave, NO! I enjoy being there with them, making sure your pet is safe and sound. Pets are family and should be cared for with highest level of care. Send me a message and I will ALWAYS put your pets in GOOD HANDS!
“Randy did a great job of taking care of our Golden, Bertie. It was Bertie’s first time with a sitter or dog walker and she was well taken care of Thanks Randy. We will rebook soon.”


“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.”

“Indie did such an amazing job. I cannot express how grateful I am to come home to happy pups and a clean home. I have 4 seniors, 2 who are giving me challenges right now and I am so thankful Indie stayed with them. Thank you! 😊”
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.

“It is my first time getting this type of service but I had to do it since I traveled on vacation and I contacted Isabella and I must say that it was a very good experience the one I had is very nice patient and loving with our furry, I contacted her for a day and I contacted her again for the second time and excellent in addition to the fact that my dog daughter had babies while I was absent and super patient Isabella I give her a 1,000 out of 10 too grateful to her. I would definitely choose it again on my next visits. Thank you so much”

“We were so happy to have met Yessi! we are so protective of Franklin so it meant a lot that we felt so at ease with her looking after him. She was communicative and easy to work with leading up to and during her sitting for us. She was very pleasant and just has a good spirit about her. We’d be so happy to hire again! Thank you so much Yessi!!!”

“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!”

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!

Allisa is the best ever pet sitter you'll ever find! Our dog did zoomies just because she was so excited to see Allisa! I NEVER have any concerns at all when Allisa cares for Zoey, and Zoey has a complicated food and medication routine. You'll be delighted with her. And she's a great photographer as well. In fact, my cell phone wallpaper is a photo Allisa took!
Caroline did an amazing job! She was faced with unexpected challenges of dealing with our dog (who is afraid of water, even in the form of lawn sprinklers) during a week of drenching rain! And Zoey also has some special needs in terms of eating five times daily and getting medication twice daily. Caroline was exceptional in following Zoey's schedule. Also, she gave us regular updates (and sent some amazing photos). We'd highly recommend Caroline!
Viviana is a thoughtful, responsible, and loving dog sitter. One of my dogs can be finnicky with people she just meets, but she immediately loved Viviana (and this says a lot!) Viviana thoughtfully cared for my dogs and catered to their individual needs - a senior dog who has frequent accidents and a needy dog who loves companionship and walks. Viviana sent pictures of the dogs to us every day and provided updates. She is very responsible, communicative, and accommodating. I highly recommend Viviana. You will love her - and your pets will too! :)

Syndee was incredible! I felt zero worries while in another country because Syndee took that stress me. Thank you Syndee for loving on my babies while we were on holiday! She went above and beyond and when cleaned the house and washed the sheets so we came home to a spotless home from a long day of travel! We appreciate you Sydnee! Great job and definitely will be rebooking with Sydnee in our future travel plans!

Flannery was great with our geriatric ECENTRIC furkids. They are old and needy. She did great taking care of each of their needs. Send lots of pictures and videos each day for check-ins. Made it much easier to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing they were all doing so well.

I couldn’t have been happier with Sara. She came to the rescue on my tough situation. Zeus needed eyes on him every second of the day and Sara was up for the task. She truly cares and has a passion caring for animals. Making sure the animals are stress free and more important make me feel less stressful with the situation while I was at work. I highly recommend Sara.

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.

Tami was such a perfect pick for my pug and kitties! She worked with us to get exactly what we needed so that we could get out of town for an important event! She sent pics and updated me perfectly! You can always tell when your pets are enjoying their time w someone in pics and they looked happy as clams! I hope to always use Tami! Her expertise with ALL animals is a gift! She left me with ZERO worries and nothing is more important than that!
