“Throughout the stay, Avery provided exceptional care ensuring my baby was comfortable and happy. I received regular updates and adorable photos, which reassured me that my baby was in good hands. I highly recommend Avery to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. I have already booked future dates.”


“Brooke was absolutely amazing!! We booked her last minute to house-sit our two dogs, and she was a lifesaver. So attentive, intentional, communicative, and flexible throughout — we felt completely at ease knowing our pups were in such great hands. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Grace is the sweetest soul you’ll ever meet with a true, genuine love for all animals. I was originally nervous leaving my girls in the hands of someone I don’t personally know, and now I can not think of anyone else I’d rather have them stay with. She took the time to get to know my girl’s needs prior to her arrival and kept me updated on them daily. I never had to wonder about how they were doing due to the many updates and photos she sent! My girls instantly loved Grace and I can not be thankful enough to her for taking such amazing care of them. She gave them so much love and attention and I could not be more grateful for that. I now have peace of mind knowing that if I ever need care for them, I know they will be in the best of hands and probably won’t even miss me when I’m gone but rather will have a blast with Grace! She was tidy and respectful and took great care of my home as well, even left it cleaner than I did. Grace is truly an angel!”


“Matthew was so amazing and sweet with Hammer and Violet! He sent daily photos and updates while we were away. We felt extremely comfortable having him in our home and he took excellent care of our pups. Thank you Matt!”


“Courtney did a fabulous job looking after our dog and house sitting while we were away. She kept him on his food and exercise schedule and gave us peace of mind - knowing that our dog was in great care while we were away.”


“Rebecca took amazing care of our fur babies during our weekend trip. She is very attentive, and communicated with me throughout house sitting in our apartment. Thank you and will definitely be booking again!”


“Wendy was amazing in ways I can hardly begin to enumerate! There is a rare kindness to her soul that was evident from the meet and greet. Nebula, our chiweenie, took a liking to her immediately. Wendy was so thorough in her communication from the meet and greet to daily check ins, of which we got plenty of photos and updates! Being away from our pup for 2 weeks was tough, but it was immensely comforting to receive all the updates. Nebula was loved deeply and cared for during this time, and for that, we can’t thank Wendy enough! Bonus: house was tidy, better than we left it. Hope to have her again for future sits!”


“Ai-Ling was wonderful with my two dogs. And is very respectful. She gave me regular status updates and pictures, and left my house clean. I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”


“Lijuan watched Bowser for 3 nights. She was very attentive to him and sent me photos all the time. It made me feel at peace knowing Bowser was in her care! Highly recommend!!”


About: Hi! I’m Gabrielle, a business student at USC Marshall with a lifelong love for animals. Growing up, I cared for fish, hamsters, cats, dogs, and parakeets (I almost had a gecko too!). Beyond loving pets, I’m a responsible, reliable sitter who treats every animal with kindness, patience, and respect. Whether your pet loves cuddles or high energy play, I adapt to their needs to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to follow any care instructions you have, no matter how specific and if your pup’s up for it, I’d love to take them for a jog too! I’m currently on summer vacation and working a part-time job, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I also have a cat named Lucy, so pet care is already a part of my daily routine feeding, playtime, cuddles, and making sure she’s living her best life! When caring for pets, I’ll most likely be coming to your home, where I’ll always respect your space and follow any house rules you provide. I believe in maintaining a calm, loving environment and being fully attentive to your pet’s needs whether that’s feeding, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company. My goal is to make your pet feel safe and cared for while giving you peace of mind.

“We had a last minute cancellation of another sitter and Lydia and Chemil saved the day! They were both so sweet, easy going, and I was instantly comfortable with them. They took excellent care of our dog and home while we were away for a week. I highly recommend them!”


About: ✨ About Me ✨ Hey I’m Ayman (Ay-men)! I am based in Pasadena and work in accounting. I LOVE animals. I’ve grown up with them all my life! Cats, dogs, fishes, chickens, goats, a llama, you name it. I’ve taken care of my friend’s pets all the time, and have experience working with senior cats as well as baby kittens and everything in between. I do specialize in taking care of cats! I also have experience administering insulin to cats. I have had 3 myself, and one cat currently with me for the past 5 years. During the California wildfires, I boarded a client’s cat and safely evacuated with them :) I also play the piano, which cats seem to enjoy 🤔 Fun fact: I'm also a huge gamer, and love streaming on Twitch! You can check me out at: twitch.tv/aymergirl 💃🏻 😼 My Schedule 😼 I work fully remote full time from home, and I have Fridays off which guarantees that your cat will never be lonely. I will also make it a priority to send daily pictures and videos of your fur baby so you can stay updated! 📸 🐟 Safety 🐟 With my past experience caring for pets, I find it very important to have a room for the pet so they can slowly become acclimated to the environment. I let the cat explore the room and remain patient until they can come up to me without being afraid. Patience is key when dealing with animals! Your cat's comfort and peace is my top priority. Cats will stay indoors at all times! I always make sure to keep the litter boxes and surrounding area clean as a hygienic environment is very important to me and the well-being of your cat.

“Mike is fantastic! He was professional and an excellent communicator—from the first message all the way through the stay. His attention to detail, skill in asking the right questions about my dog's needs, and regular updates with phots was worth every penny!”


“Shirley was wonderful! She took great care of our three pets—our puppy Teddy, dog Olive, and cat Winston—during a 6-hour visit. She was warm and attentive, We came home to calm, happy pets. Highly recommend Shirley to anyone looking for a kind and reliable sitter!”

This is the second time Ira has taken care of our 1 year old pup, and once again she did a spectacular job. We feel so comfortable leaving our home and dog in her care. She’s communicative, very patient with our shy dog, and extremely clean. We look forward to having her house sit again!

Victoria was simply amazing from our first meet and greet to setting up the care for my cat to the daily communication during her stay. She is professional, kind, trustworthy, and attentive and I will 100% work with her again to help me take care of my cat when needed. Thank you Victoria!

I’m so grateful for the amazing care Peggy gave my three cats. I think another review summed it up perfectly, calling her “The Mary Poppins of Cats”! On her visit to my house to meet the cats and have a walkthrough, all three cats were insta toy happy and relaxed and affectionate with her, including one guy who is normally shy, and one gal who is VERY picky about the humans she hangs out with! I was so impressed and instantly knew I’d made the right call booking Peggy. During her stay Peggy was always communicative and good natured. She’s a gifted cat photographer and shared some of the best pics I’ve ever seen of the cats, many times a day. It was wonderful to see how relaxed the cats were, and that they were plainly having fun with Peggy and enjoying her stay. I got the impression Peggy genuinely enjoyed hanging out with the cats, and that it was very mutual from the feline end. She went above and beyond by offering to swing by after work while I was travelling back to give the cats dinner. She had only been booked until breakfast but that extra kindness was a huge relief for me when I found out my flight was delayed. She left my house in beautiful condition, and the cats were super relaxed when I got home. Thanks Peggy, you’re a legend for a reason!

Wendy is a rockstar sitter! She took excellent care of our senior dog (15 y/o), Jameson, and kept us updated throughout the day. Our family hasn’t been away from Jameson for that long, but we were at ease knowing Wendy was there with him, giving him tlc and ensuring his medications were on schedule. Wendy is friendly, warm, and professional. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Lina does such a great job with our pups and plants! We left for longer than usual and she sent photos, text updates, and did a heroic job getting one of them unstuck from under the bed in the middle of the night . . .She really cares for them, left the house immaculate for our homecoming.
