Pet Sitting South Arroyo

About: Hi! I recently graduated from UCSB and have a very flexible schedule this summer before starting my full-time job. I’ve dog sat for family friends, and neighbors over the years and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I’ve cared for a Maltese for several weeks, looked after a German Shepherd, and watched other small and medium-sized dogs. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, going on walks, playing with dogs, and making sure they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I always try to provide the same level of care and attention they receive at home. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is in good hands. I have a very flexible schedule and can provide care throughout the day, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship. I’m available on weekdays and weekends and can easily adjust to your dog’s normal routine. Since I’m home most of the day, I can make sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and never left alone for long periods of time. I live in a spacious townhouse with plenty of room for dogs to relax and move around comfortably. I also have a private porch where dogs can safely spend time outside and enjoy some fresh air. There is a coach outside for them to lay on. I understand that every dog has different needs and routines, so I always follow owner instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, exercise, and any special care. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, comfortable, and at home while you’re away.

“Kyle was invaluable by looking after our reptiles on short notice that we were able to have peace of mind while abroad without having to board then. We definitely would recommend them and look forward to working with them again in the future.”

“Anna was very sweet with my pup, Forrest and I enjoyed receiving photo updates. When Forrest was anxious one day during a 30 min. drop-in visit, Anna even offered to stay longer, which was appreciated!”

“Matthew is incredible! Perfect for big dog owners! We have a dog with a lot of quirks and he had no problem working with them. I was so comfortable knowing he was taking care of my babies!”

“Second time I’ve hired Lori to take care of our cat who is on a regiment of medications for his cancer. Lori puts my mind at ease with her excellent communication and consistent care. Thank you again!”

“Mike was so great to care for my animals. He bonded with the temperamental male Oslo, absolutely left my place and feeding areas spotless. He sent great candid shots of each one of my 3 cats, they looked very relaxed and happy. No issues at all. He was so nice to meet in person and I would book him again any time! Really prompt and communicative.”

About: I’ve had many dogs and cats throughout my life. I light up around animals but I’m a big believer in respecting a pet’s personal boundaries. This means I won’t pet an animal if it does not want to be pet and I won’t intentionally overexcite them. I’m going to school part-time at Pasadena City College where I’m pursuing an associates degree in Behavioral Sciences. I’m excited to care for animals during the rest of my time! I am dedicated to maintaining a safe environment for animals. I am punctual with regular tasks such as medication and mealtimes. I am attentive to potential hazards that may occur on walks and in parks.

“Joy is great with my two cats. My one scaredy cat came out for her immediately when it normally takes weeks for her to warm up to people. I’ve been booking her services numerous times now and I can say Joy is a Joy to have for my cats.”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life. I grew up with a German Shepherd who I helped care for from puppyhood until she passed when I was 18, giving me years of experience with walks, feeding, exercise, and lots of love. My mom prioritized cleanliness so I also know how to keep your dog and space clean. More recently, I’ve cared for a friend’s young Aussiedoodle on five separate occasions, including overnight stays, which gave me experience handling a high-energy dog with a consistent routine and plenty of attention needs. Whether your dog is young or old, my goal is always to provide reliable, attentive care and make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m available on Fridays before 9am and after 4pm (can be flexible in between also) and on weekends I’m pretty flexible for multiple visits / walks per day. I am great at following directions and will respect any wishes you have for your home and pet. I am very conscious that I am caring for a loved one and will be very careful and safe during my time with your pet.

“Ani, thank you so much for looking after our Oliver! Regular updates and some fantastic photos were a blessing, and over the festive season too. Thank you so much for being so flexible with bookings, especially given the short notice over Christmas when we unexpectedly found ourselves needing to be out of town. Would 10,000% recommend Ani, she has been truly fantastic. Thank you!!!!”

Tom G.

“Yesenia was great with our two cats! She took care of them while I was away for a weekend trip, including giving my older cat his medication and a special mix of dry/wet food. She arrived within the timeframes we discussed for her drop-in visits and sent pictures/updates each time. I would love to have Yesenia care for my cats next time I'm out of town!”

Laurelle M.

“Shelby was a wonderful sitter for our elderly cat Fudge! She was attentive, communicative, kind, and left the apartment in great condition. Our cat as happy as a clam when we returned home and I could tell that our girl had been well taken care of. Fudge is a very sociable cat and for once she didn't seem attention starved upon our return from a trip! Every day Shelby also sent great updates letting us know how she was doing and I could see how comfortable Fudge was with her. We'll definitely be having Shelby's help again in the future when we are out of town!”

Ashley P.

“Brandi is super communicative and easy to work with! Our territorial senior cat warmed up to her quickly for a couple drop-in visits over the long weekend. Thanks!”

Aryeh C.

“Namie was lovely to work with and very communicative during her check-in with my 2 big girls! They felt comfortable with Namie right away, which was a huge relief as a first-time Rover user. She left us multiple pictures, and we would definitely book with her again!”

About: Based in Pasadena, I provide reliable dog walking and drop-in visits for local pet owners. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I focus on safety, consistency, and clear communication. Every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to understand their individual needs and comfort level. Whether it’s a daily walk or a drop-in visit, I aim to make pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident. After each visit, I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I currently have a flexible schedule and can accommodate both regular and occasional pet care requests. I value consistency and reliability, and I make sure every walk or visit receives my full attention. I always communicate clearly with pet owners and provide updates after each visit. Safety is always my top priority. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, comfort level, and personality before every visit. During walks, I stay aware of the environment, avoid unnecessary risks, and choose safe routes. I believe trust is built through patience, consistency, and clear communication with both pets and their owners.

“April did a wonderful job checking in our two dogs for midday breaks this week! She was very communicative and made sure to address all the things we asked her to: enrichment activities for one pup and snuggles with another. I’ll definitely book her again!”

About: Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priority, and I believe the best way to achieve that is by keeping things as familiar as possible. I stick closely to your pet's normal routine - feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications - so they feel safe and at ease whether you are home or away. I am reliable, attentive, and genuinely patient with all kinds of personalities. Whether your pup is high-energy and needs plenty of activity or is a more laid-back companion who just wants some quiet company, I adapt to whatever makes your pet feel most comfortable. I have a special place in my heart for senior dogs and understand the extra care and patience they require. From managing medications and limited mobility to providing gentle companionship and a calm environment, I am experienced in making older dogs feel comfortable, loved, and well looked after.

You can count on regular updates and photos throughout the day so you always have peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle.

To give your pet the best possible care, I love learning as much about them as I can before we get started.
