“Sarah was wonderful! She took care of my three furry babies while we were out of town for a few days. After meeting with her prior the sit I knew they would be in good hands and we left town with peace of mind. I have an energetic puppy, a senior dog with mobility issues and a bossy bunny. Sarah was able to tend to their specific needs. She is detail oriented, communicative and well organized. I would definitely book her services again!”



“David is great! So calm and accomodating, communicative and responsible. My puppy (who is quite the handful) was calm and happy after spending a full day with David. thank you! ”


“It is always a relief for us to be able to count on Shanna to take care of our baby, thank you Shanna and Cora for taking care of Valentino with so much love.”


“Payje is so appreciated! She watched our big boy two times so far once for two days and once for seven and he loves her and it was such a relief to not have to worry about him when we were not home. She was very communicative and reliable and friendly, and we just cannot say enough about her. highly recommend.”


“Amanda was accommodating and accepted my last minute request with 2 pups at home. She took good care of the dogs and the house. Ellie and Zee would love to see her again!”


About: I've been taking care and looking after dogs since I was a kid. I have an uncanny ability to find a dog's sweet spot and become best buds. With my flexible schedule, your dog (or any pet) will be properly taken care of and looked after for walks, pets, playtime, lunch/dinnertime, and even naps, even at short notice. I believe your furry friends are very good boys and girls, and I'll always remind them of that every time I see them! I'll take care of them as if they were my own with the love and attention they deserve while providing you with the updates you request and need. Looking forward to becoming your furry friend's new friend! (P.S. Please tell your dog I said hi!) My schedule is extremely flexible, maximizing the amount of time your furry friends want and need. I'm available most every day, including holidays (except Christmas), and even on short notice. I request to meet you and your pets beforehand to get to know both of you and what your expections and needs are as an owner. Whether it's housesitting, a drop-in, or a walk, I will treat your home, like your pet, as if it were my own, while respecting the rules of your home that you provide. I will also provide any updates regarding your pets upon request and as needed. Should any unforseen circumstances arise or an extra hand is needed, my girlfriend is also a very experienced pet sitter and can step in, if needed.

“Justin is fantastic. We spoke with Justin the day before we needed him and luckily he was available! We are so happy to have found him. I would highly recommend him!”



“Michelle was great!! My pups were so well taken care of and I can tell they were so happy! Would recommend and will be definitely booking again :)”


About: I have 5 years of experience with dogs of all sizes and ages. I am high energy and would love to have your best friend come along for a walk with a FREE bath on request! I am also experienced at administering medication to your furry pals! When caring for your pet I will be available the majority of the time, if I need to step away, my father who is also an experienced dog owner, will be able to keep your pet company. I take my dog for a 2 mile walk everyday and feed him a homemade meal twice daily. He receives a bath every other week, but sometimes once a week. I also brush my dogs teeth almost daily!

“Cannot say enough great things about Amber! She stayed at our house with our pup while we were away and took great care of both our house and our dog. We were nervous with this being our first time using Rover, but as soon as we met Amber we knew we were in good hands! She sent lots of updates, responded promptly to our anxious puppy parent messages and I could tell our dog felt right at home with her. We will absolutely use her services again and feel so glad to have found someone we trust to watch our boy when we travel! Thank you, Amber!”


“Justin provided an excellent service! He connected with my dog Cometa and ensure he was exercised, fed, safe, and well cared! Cometa was relaxed and happy! I found him calm and secured at my arrival! I will continue having Justin taking care of my dog as many times as my dog needs service! Justin is dependable, responsible, nurturing and committed to provide de best service possible. I’m very grateful and happy with his service. Gracias, gracias, gracias….”


About: I currently have two chinchillas, Tim and Archie! I had a German shepherd of my own named Bruno, but has passed. Therefore, I hope to honor him by helping families provide the best care for their loved ones. I currently live in Alhambra/San Marino area, so I took the opportunity to be a part of the Pasadena Humane Society volunteer programs. Through Pasadena Humane I had have the pleasure of working with both staff and animals of all sorts. Being a part of the animal community is very important to me and want to expand my skills and love to your pets! Luckily, I have learned a lot about animal behavior and husbandry, so rest assure that your pets are in good, knowledgable hands. I mostly work Monday to Friday, but evenings are open for me after 6 pm. During the weekends I am much more flexible. As long as I get at least a one day notice, I will do my best to be available. Tambien hablo español. I have two chinchillas, so I am very well versed on how to take care of them. As for cats and dogs, I have had both since I can remember. I am comfortable with all pet sizes since I have had dogs such as miniture schnauzer, doberman, and german shepherd to name a few. As for cats I have had the experience of caring for both a hybrid (indoor/outdoor) cat as well as a fully inside cat. These experiences have helped me diversify how I go about caring for pets, so I will have an easier time adjusting to every pets' needs.

“This was our initial contact with Loretta. Last minute, very old dog, and a holiday week. special needs and overnights. That all seems like a tough nut to crack. Loretta did just that with maturity and professionalism. We will be asking for her services going forward.”


“Zoey went above and beyond taking care of my dog, Peppa, giving her extra care and comfort during our city’s fireworks show. Right off the bat when we first met Zoey we got an excellent first impression. She is very warm, friendly, and trustworthy and was great with our Peppa.”


“Dogs favorite sitter. Christine really goes above and beyond. A genuine dog lover!!”


“Amanda was great with our 75lb German Shepherd Rottweiler Chili for a 2 night house sit. She showed up on time, asked behavioral questions, and kept our house clean and tidy. Communication was easy - she set expectations about when she would send daily updates with plenty of photos, and adjusted the nightly time according to our time zone. Chili really enjoyed Amanda’s company and we would book her again.”


“Emily is very communicative and provides updates on my dog. She took my dog for walks and play with her. Wonderful experience overall.”


“Georgia was so great with my pups! She took them out on multiple walks and followed all care instructions. The dogs were chilling and super relaxed in her care. She’s also super knowledgeable and gave me recommendations for dog training and dog food/products during our meet and greet. Would definitely recommend and would book again! :)”



About: How's it going! I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid. I have grown up with 2 different dogs, the second one I have taken care of it since it was a pup and still care for it to this day. Feed it, play with it, take it for a walk. I also care for a family friends dog whenever they go out of town I stay in their home. Go for runs in the morning, feed it, play catch with him, and take him out. I also have experience with cats, I care for my sisters cat on occasion. He is months old so he can be very adventurous which I don't mind at all. Actually caring for animals makes the job that much easier.

About: I had always had dogs involved in my life but my first experience was when I had the opportunity to take care of my friend's dogs a few years ago. It was one of the best experiences I've had. I can even care for rabbits, hamsters, rats, and other small animals as I have two female guinea pigs. Currently I own one dog and I've done lots of research to give him the best healthy life. If I become a sitter for a day, the schedule would mostly be grooming, feeding, walking, playing, cuddling, and bonding. There will be sleep/nap time too. I am affectionate, gentle, cautious, and friendly dog owner. The first thing I do is have my dog potty and poo poo and then feed him water and food. Then I will follow the list of what the owner wants for the dog as day goes on. I have a shaded walk path around the condo area for dogs to walk without getting overheated. I do prefer dogs that knows house rules.
