“Michelle was great with my dog, I could really tell that she is a dog person and is knowledgeable about the care and maintenance of dogs. She is conscientious, caring and dependable.”

About: I love dogs… of all kinds! That’s an understatement. My boy is Sailor, the Siberian Husky you see in my profile. The other two dogs—Bokee & Penny—are my friend’s dogs that I dog-sit for whenever I’m needed. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, and I’m comfortable with any breed. Your furry friend will love hanging out with Auntie Tamara. I work for myself so I’ll have plenty of time for your fur babies. From feeding to walking to bathing to chilling, your pup and I will be the best of friends. In terms of my house, I have a yard with high walls so Sailor doesn’t even try to go anywhere unless it’s with me. When taking care of my friend’s dogs, they entrust me with their house key so I can come over and watch over the pups (even when they’re older, they’re always puppies in my eyes). When you ask me to dog-sit for you in your home, you can trust me to treat your space with the utmost respect. Same goes for the fur babies. They’re always in good hands with Auntie Tamara.

About: As a former owner of a golden retriever that I've trained myself, I have firsthand experience with the needs and joys of dog ownership. I frequently train my sister’s Carolina dog, which has deepened my understanding of diverse dog behaviors and training techniques. As a runner, I genuinely enjoy walking and running with a variety of dogs, ensuring they get the exercise and engagement they need. This passion for canine care has inspired me to offer my services as a dog-sitter and walker. I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for your furry friends, making sure they receive the attention and activity they deserve while you’re away. I also do headbutts with cats. I currently work at a co-working space, running a company and I've started a YouTube channel. I work on my own schedule, so I have time to play with and walk/run dogs! I also have had experience taking care of cats. I prioritize maintaining the dog's routine and comfort in their familiar surroundings. Before each visit, I carefully review their instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication administration (if needed), exercise needs, and any specific behavioral considerations. During my visits, I will focus on providing engaging playtime, ensuring sufficient exercise (walks, playtime in the yard, etc.), and plenty of attention and affection. I'll maintain cleanliness by promptly cleaning up any accidents and ensuring the space remains tidy. My goal is to provide consistent, reliable care that allows the dog to feel safe and happy while you are away

“Haijin and Victor are AMAZING to work with. I’m always at ease when they walk and care for Tofu. For being an anxious pup, he’s been so comfortable with them from the start. I love that they are always on top of communication and you can tell they have a lot of experience working with dogs. I’m very grateful for them!”

About: Since the pandemic, I’ve fostered over 5 dogs for foundations and friends around LA, notably LaBelle Foundation! One of the dogs I fostered was a blind and deaf senior dog named Conroy! I’ve also fostered my friend’s golden retriever for the entire year last year. In addition, I worked in a pet salon last summer and have experience with dealing with tantrums, and will have the upmost patience when caring for your fur babies:) As a summer intern at Apple, I work remotely on Mondays and Fridays, which allows me to spend plenty of time at home giving your pup the attention, companionship, and walks they deserve throughout the day. I’m also completely free on weekends, making Saturdays and Sundays ideal for longer walks, playtime, and personalized care. I love taking walks around my neighborhood, which is filled with beautiful greenery and dog-friendly paths. There are both popular walking areas for social dogs and quieter, more secluded routes for pups who prefer their space. My flexible schedule allows me to be attentive to your dog’s unique needs, ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fenced front yard and backyard with lots of greenery, and are huge running and play spaces for your pup! I also have plenty of space in my house for crates if your pup needs it as well! I am lucky enough to live in a dog friendly neighborhood; it has perfect dog walking paths with tons of greenery and other dogs walking that your fur babies can engage with!

About: I’ve had my first pet since I was 8 and I’ve loved animals ever since I could remember. I had my first dog walking job in my early 20s when I was in college and my first dog bestfriend was a Shiba Inu. I literally loved him like he was my own. I took him everywhere and anywhere that I went. I helped raised and trained him since he was 6 months old up until he was 7. Unfortunately, our journey had to come into an end when I had to move states for my first career out of college. Now that I’m back home in Cali, I’ve been yearning for another dog best friend or few. Sadly, where I currently live doesn’t allow for dogs on the premises so I’d be happy to go wherever to take care of your furry loved one! My experience includes basic obedience skills such as training and leash manners. **I am also extremely protective of your animals so I won’t take them where I know they could potentially be in danger or in harm.** *I am very communicative and will send pics when you’re away! I am available on the weekends, evenings, and holidays! I am sometimes free during mid afternoons. I am also available to board if when it is requested. I like to make sure that I am in constant communication with every pet’s owners. My preference is that I am provided with a list of do’s and don’ts. Otherwise I like to maintain a clean environment and make sure all animals are fed based on the schedule and amount that the owner provides. I like to be in constant observance of all animal’s habits in case for any changes of health or behaviors and I make sure to maintain a healthy amount of affection based on each animal’s needs.

“Vicky is amazing! She took really good care of our pups and was constantly updating how they were doing per our request. We always enjoyed hearing from her and would definitely ask her to walk our pups again!”

“We love Andrea! She offered to do a meet and greet before we booked her. She is EXTREMELY punctual, caring, and sweet. More so, our sweet boy Beckham loves walking with her. He always waits for her by the staircase waiting! Thank you Andrea! We are so grateful for you!”

About: I have been an active, hands-on animal lover since I was 10 years old. Growing up, I was the go-to person for friends, family, and neighbors whenever they needed someone to look after their pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and I understand how important it is for owners to have peace of mind while they are away. I am quick to learn specific needs and always prioritize the safety and comfort of your furry friend. I have a flexible summer schedule and am fully committed to prioritizing your pet's needs. I am available for early mornings, afternoons, and evenings throughout the week, as well as full day availability on weekends. I specialize in providing attentive care within the comfort of your own home, which allows your pet to remain in their familiar environment, reducing stress and keeping their routine consistent. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect and care. I am fully comfortable with following specific instructions regarding feeding, medication, and exercise, and I will always provide regular photo and text updates so you have complete peace of mind while you are away.

“Nataly was amazing with our dog Mia! We were so happy to receive a ton of photos after every walk. She was very thorough in her Rover cards, had outstanding communication, and was open to doing a meet and greet with us beforehand. We will definitely be reaching out to her for walks in the future!”

“Eric is fantastic with my dog, Dexter! He comes by a few times per week mid-day to walk and play with Dexter while I'm at work, and sends me photos and videos of Dexter enjoying his visit. At my request, Eric gives Dexter his daily favorite green treat and wipes his paws after his walks. Communication is quick and easy, and Eric is very trustworthy entering my home and leaving it all locked up once each visit is complete. I'd definitely recommend Eric for any service he provides on Rover. Thanks Eric!! -Ryan”

“Honestly one of the greatest dog walkers and dog caretaker ever! Melanie is super responsible and very gentle! My puppy is always scared of new people but Melanie really took the time to recognize what our puppy needed and became best friends with our puppy! Melanie is always on time and super diligent about leaving everything where it belongs like our keys, treats, leash and harness. Melanie is very respectful and we and our puppy will always choose her as our dog walker/caretaker!! Thank you Melanie!”

About: I volunteer at two local animal rescues. I have fostered over 80 dogs. My specialty is in Puppies, I have bottle fed newborns, given vaccinations and am comfortable with administering medications. All ages and sizes are welcome! My schedule and availability is open. I currently work part-time from home, so I am available for walks, potty breaks, anything needed at any time of the day! Send me your request and let’s chat! I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs that have spent their whole life around all of the foster cats and dogs that I have brought home. I can also create your dog or cat, depending on your preference.

About: I have experience caring for all kinds of pets. I am able to provide care for all different ages, a good variety of breeds I am even able to care for dogs with various health concerns/medical needs. (Blind, allergies, deaf, post surgery, anxiety, etc.) I am very big on positive affirmations and reenforcing good behavior. I love training dogs! I think it can be a lot of fun. (Right now, I’m teaching sign language to both of my dogs. Our oldest is now deaf and has separation anxiety, so we’re working on basic commands.) I work in the mornings on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and, Thursdays. Typically, my lessons run from 9-12. I teach swim lessons all year and set my own schedule. I have a fenced in back yard, that is big enough for the dogs to run around and play! We’re always outside during the warmer months. As long as they have a bowl of cold water, my dogs will stay outside until they choose to come in. In my home, there is a basement. It’s not very big, but it is a nice spot to retreat to. It’s a good space to relax in as there is little outside noise that gets in. (Our laundry room is in the basement. If we run the washer or the dryer during the 4th of July, you cant even hear the fireworks going off. This is a plus, for living with dogs).

About: Hi! I've been passionate about dogs for as long as I can remember! I've had two of my own dogs (one of them being diabetic so I can help with that type of care as well) and about 15 years of pet care experience. I am Fear Free Shelter certified and a volunteer at Pasadena Humane where I work with shelter dogs and dog training classes. This experience has given me a deep understanding of behavior styles and the ability to work with various dogs. I'm committed to ensuring your dog is loved, safe, and well-cared for at all times. Looking forward to connecting with you and your dog soon! Services Offered: Dog Walking: Enjoying walks tailored to your dog's energy level and preferences. Drop-in Visits: Providing care and companionship. My schedule is flexible due to my contract work in events, allowing me to accommodate your dog's needs throughout the week during the day or evenings. Just dm me and we can plan the perfect care routine for your furry friend. I'm dedicated to providing top-notch care for your dog as if they were my own. This means maintaining their daily routine, from meals and walks to play and nap times. Regular updates, complete with adorable pictures if you'd like, will keep you connected with your furry friend.
