Doggy Day Care South

“Freddie was so stoked! He got lots of play time with his new bff Henri and was very well taken care of. Will definitely book with Michael again. Truly felt like Freddie was with family.”

“Jackson came home so tired that he must have had a wonderful time with Cat, Albert, and Trace! 😍 they provided the cutest report card about his day 💕 I also really appreciate how flexible they were with drop off and pick up times, due to my unpredictable work schedule. So glad to have Jackson enjoy daycare here!”

“Amanda was GREAT! From start to finish, she helped my anxious dog feel so comfortable. She was both Kind & Excellent at communicating! Would definitely recommend & book again(:”

“I needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and I’m so glad I found Angelica! She was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we connected. Both of my dogs took to her right away, and when I picked them up, they kept going back to her to be pet and attention, that says it all! It's clear Angelica has a genuine love for animals and a special way with them. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Kiyomi treated our recently adopted puppy as her own and gave so many helpful tricks and tips for taking care of our newest little family member. You can tell she’s great with all dogs and wants to do everything she can to make sure they’re happy. Extra perk that she takes super cute photos of your pup too.”

About: I’ve cared for the dogs and cats of many friends and family, including my own 16 year old deaf & blind yorkie. I love all animals, and am experienced in caring for disabled pets, anxious pets, and those with lots and lots of energy. I’m currently a student in medical school, so I spend lots of time studying - perfect for home visits where I can run through my flashcards in the company of a furry friend! I also love walking around the neighborhood and going on hikes with the pets I care for! I am experienced in working with prescription diets, special needs animals, and pets of all ages. Please let me know what special considerations your pet requires!

“Our dog had a great time with Alicia and immediately felt comfortable and at ease. I could tell he really enjoyed his time there and was relaxed when I picked him up! Alicia went above and beyond to communicate with me and send photos so I knew exactly how my pup was doing! Thank you so much Alicia and I will definitely be back! 😊”

“Joy was absolutely great with Leia, and Leia loved her! Joy was very mindful of keeping Leia cool and comfortable during the recent heat wave, which I really appreciated. She provided regular updates throughout the day, giving me total peace of mind. I highly recommend Joy for any future daycare needs!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m patient with puppies, respectful of each pet’s unique personality and routine, and committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, and lots of one-on-one attention. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also provide photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I keep a clean, calm environment, closely supervise playtime, and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of affection. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout every stay or visit.

About: I've shared my home with two to four dogs since coming to LA 15 years ago. Because I work from home, your pup gets a calm, dog-savvy human nearby all day — frequent yard breaks, play, and belly rubs instead of hours alone. I'm comfortable with puppies, seniors, medications, and high-energy dogs. I feel time together and attention is what bonds both humans and dogs, and seeing them go from anxious and confused to a happy member of "the pack" is one of the more rewarding parts of taking care of them, so I prefer stays long or frequent enough for your pup to feel at home with me and in my home, but I'm also always willing to cover a tight spot or step in for a day of daycare. I work from home on a flexible schedule, so your dog has company and supervision for the entire day — regular walks, play, and potty breaks, not long stretches alone. I offer boarding and daycare and take only up to three dogs at a time, and mostly for medium to long term boarding, so it's a calm environment without a ton of new dogs coming and going. I'm glad to keep your dog's normal routine for meals, walks, naps, and bedtime. I always mark as unavailable any days I have travel or major time commitments that will keep me away from home for more than an hour or two, so they will have constant care while they're here. Your dog will have free range of my 3 bedroom home, detached studio, and very large, securely fenced backyard full of fruit trees. I don't have pets of my own right now, so your pup gets the whole space and my full attention. I'm happy to crate or set up a quiet separate area if that's what your dog is used to, and I keep things calm and low-stress. My space is easily partitioned to allow dogs to eat, nap, or hang out alone in peace if that's what they prefer. I have a doggy door for dogs who like to let themselves in/out at their leisure. (it's about 50/50 whether they figure it out and make use of it lol) I converted our detached 2 car garage into a recording studio, where I work, so we have the quietest place in town in the event we have to make it through fireworks or if your pet prefers quiet or isolation. Both the house and studio have their own separate HVAC systems, so they'll definitely stay comfortable. I don't generally use kennels or crates, but if your dog prefers or is used to using one, by all means bring it along. I have always slept with my own dogs, so happy to co-sleep with yours if that's what they're used to, but also glad to maintain whatever rules you generally set for them in regard to being on beds/furniture. I have found even "reactive" and "solitary" dogs very quickly acclimate to a more social environment (it usually only takes 3-4 hours) and I never leave them together unsupervised until they're demonstrating clear friendliness to each other. Many dog parents bring their pups over just for this kind of socialization, and it's great to watch a dog that "hates all other dogs" running and playing in the yard with the group after snarling at everyone just a few hours before.

About: Hi there! I have long loved being a dog mom and thought to start sitting to give myself and my own dog some extra company and fun times. I can usually take up to two additional dogs to my own. If I am able to sit for your dog, I will be working from home. However, I am not available everyday. This is why I recommend planning in advance for my availability. I have a single family home with a fenced in dog run and patio for them to play in. They are free to be in the house and not be restricted in movements. However, I do not let pets on the furniture or beds. However doggy beds are available.

About: Hello neighbors! I'm a dog lover who's had the pleasure of living with three different furry friends through my adulthood. I've also doggy-sat different pups for friends over the years. I am a lover of fitness and the outdoors, and I'd love to take care of your pup when you're not able to - by dropping in for visits or taking them for a nice walk in the neighborhood. I am affectionate but can also be stern and follow more rigid obedience protocols, and I am confident I can handle big dogs as well. I create my own schedule and have lots of flexibility to accommodate your pets' care amongst my daily obligations. I live in Pasadena and can get around easily via my own transportation. Safety matters, and I have a keen eye for things which may put your dog at harm. At home, I have two medium-sized dogs myself - one who loves to eat everything and anything, so being mindful of food that's laying around is absolutely key.

“Athene was very conscience of my dog meeting the other dogs and was super great and flexible with my schedule. We will definitely be using her services again when we come back into the area.”

“Carmen is the most amazing puppy sitter! She follows our daily schedule for Frankie which includes meals, potty routine, light gentle play, naps, and training! I am so lucky to have her care for my Frankie. It’s so hard for me to trust anyone with an 3mo old puppy and Carmen immediately proved how caring and attentive she is. I receive photos, videos, and updates that keep my mind at ease while during my long shifts at work.”

“Stephanie is amazing! She is so caring and loving, and I was completely confident that my pup was in great care. I am so thankful that I found her on Rover!!”

Natalie M.

“Tremendous care and play for my supercharged rott. year old- she was even worn out the next day, which I've never seen. Great communication throughout- highly recommended.”
