I can not say enough wonderful things about The Ranch. We’ve had our dog stay here for daycare days for a couple of years so far, and we don’t plan on using any other daycare simply because of how excellent the staff are here. Everyone is so kind, and every daycare day gives you a report card from the staff member with pictures and notes on how the day went. You can also schedule boarding and/or training days, and the staff have been amazing in training us how to be even better dog parents. We always feel safe and happy whenever we drop off our dog, and we always recommend The Ranch to others looking for a dog training or daycare facility. Top tier dog LA location!

Fleur took excellent care of my dog, who has pretty severe separation anxiety. We met up before booking to make sure my dog got along well with her dog and cats. I’ve already booked Fleur twice and will continue to use her as a favored dog sitter. She communicated with me throughout the day on any behavioral issues. I felt that my dog was very well taken care of and recommend Fleur to any other pet parents. P

I’ve had the pleasure of having Rocio care for my pets, and I can’t recommend her enough. She is incredibly responsible, always ensuring that my pets are well-fed, exercised, and happy. Her loving nature shines through as she treats each pet like her own, offering plenty of attention and affection. Rocio is attentive to their needs and follows instructions carefully, providing peace of mind when I’m away. I trust her completely with my furry family members, and they always seem excited to see her!

Hello! Sara loves animals and would be the most amazing lady to watch your fur babies. Sara will cuddle, love, and spend special attention to your fur baby. Sara loves to take walks, guaranteed she will be taking your fur baby with her. Sara has always been very attentive to my little Yorkie, Yogi, when she cares for him. She takes such good care of Yogi and loves to see him. If Yogi hears Sara’s voice on the phone, Yogi goes absolutely wild thinking that Sara is right next to him. When Yogi sees Sara, he sprints at full speed to greet her. You can be at peace knowing Sara is caring for your fur babies - especially because they are like our children and we want to know they are being loved when we’re not there. Sara will put that peace in your heart, guaranteed! I only have Sara watch my Yogi! 🐶🐾❤️ Best, Diane and Yogi

Laura ‘s awesome. I was in a bind late last year and needed to find someone on short notice. I am so glad I found her. my rescue, Baxter is sight and hearing impaired so taking him to a daycare, wasn’t really a great option. We did a meet and greet and it went well. And she even put up with his stinky ears. The best part about all of it is that I can go to work and not worry. I trust her completely. I’ve had a few bookings with her and I’m sure they’ll be more to come. Thanks, Laura .

Highly recommended France’s Lois!! Very responsive and patient with all of my puppy questions and schedule. Cared for Chica as if she were her own and is very thoughtful to send updates and pics throughout the night. Chica was very happy to see me in a calm—not scared or desperate-demeanor which was very telling of a healthy, fun, and safe environment. Thank you SO much!!

I had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved Riley to Jill, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the exceptional care and attention my little girl received. From the moment I dropped her off, it was evident that Jilly possesses a genuine love for animals. Her warm and welcoming demeanor instantly put my dog at ease, making the transition from home to dog-sitting environment seamless. I would always get a regular updates and photos reassuring that my dog was not only in good hands but was also enjoying a range of activities and adventures. What sets Jill apart is her keen understanding of each dog's unique personality and needs. Whether it was playtime, walks, or simply cuddling on the couch, Jill tailored her care to match my dog's preferences, creating a personalized and enriching experience. Cleanliness and safety were also top priorities for Jill. The environment is cozy, clean and super pet friendly, and I felt confident that my dog was in a secure and hygienic space. For anyone seeking a compassionate and reliable dog sitter, Jills commitment to the well-being of animals, coupled with her professionalism and genuine love for dogs, makes her an outstanding choice. I am grateful to have found such a caring individual to look after my furry Love and will undoubtedly be reaching out to Jill again. Thank you, for your all your love to Riley!

Carley is hands down the best pet sitter I’ve hired! She took such great care of my Leo - he usually has bad separation anxiety but I could tell he didn’t even realize I was gone in the updates she sent me. If you want someone to treat your pup like their own, Carley will certainly give them the love and care they deserve!
