About: I've taken care of pets since 2020 mostly from family. Past year I've walked, fed, cleaned, and played with pets who are friends of a coach I intern with. I'm currently interning part-time, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets. I'm available on Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Family and I, fenced the backyard for my uncle's dog, took care of him, and provided a safe home for him. I know how to feed, walk, and play with dogs and cats.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats with different personalities, routines, and care needs. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, fresh water, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, dog walking, playtime, and routine medication support. I also have experience with senior pets, shy cats, anxious dogs, and pets that need a calmer, more patient approach. I understand the importance of following instructions closely, watching for changes in behavior, and keeping owners updated during each visit. For medication care, I can assist with routine owner-directed medication such as pills, liquid medication, eye drops, ear drops, and topical medication. Written instructions are required so I can follow your pet’s normal care routine accurately. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking by appointment. My schedule may vary depending on location and existing bookings, but I do my best to keep visits consistent with your pet’s normal routine. For first-time clients, I prefer a meet-and-greet before confirming the booking so I can learn your pet’s routine, feeding instructions, medication needs, behavior notes, and home access instructions. For pets with medication needs, please provide clear written instructions in advance, including medication name, dosage, timing, and what to do if your pet refuses the medication. Safety and trust are very important to me. I follow owner instructions carefully, keep dogs leashed during walks, use your preferred walking route when provided, check doors and gates before leaving, and provide clear visit updates with photos. During each visit, I make sure food and water are refreshed, potty or litter box needs are handled, and your pet’s area is left clean and secure. I also pay attention to changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything that seems unusual, and I will update you right away if I notice a concern. I only provide drop-in visits and dog walking at the pet owner’s home. I do not offer boarding or daycare, so pets remain in their own familiar environment.

Sydney is the best! I'm such a worrying dog-mom, and she could not have been more perfect. She was highly communicative with me and was very easy to get in touch with. I also love that she is a vet tech. That put my mind at ease the whole time we were away. If she noticed small changes in my dog's behavior she would take precautions and monitored him like a pro. Even my neighbor commented on how wonderful she was and how our dog just fell in love with her. I will use Sydney every time we travel in the future!

About: I grew up with a Great Dane who I cared for from childhood until she passed, and she’s the reason I’ve loved pets my whole life. Since then, I’ve helped take care of family and friends’ dogs of all sizes. Today I have an 11-year-old chihuahua (Camila) who is healthy, loved, and very used to having little pups around and a 5-year-old Weimaraner (Lolo) who was literally ‘trained’ by Camila to be gentle and respectful with small dogs. We also have a 16-month-old baby who has learned to be calm, gentle, and loving with pets. Your pup will be in a loving, kind, safe, and experienced home. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give consistent attention and supervision to your pup throughout the day. My son is in daycare during daytime hours, so the home stays calm, quiet, and perfect for small dogs. I have a fenced backyard and a fenced front yard where dogs can safely explore under my supervision. I only care for a small number of pups at a time to keep the environment calm and safe. My two pups are gentle, respectful of small breeds, and all interactions are always supervised. I can also separate or crate dogs if needed to match their routine.

About: I cared for dogs for about two years. I would walk them and play with them. I also work part-time at a pet supplies and I know what kind of food is suitable for dogs with different problems.

About: As the sole caretaker of my own dog for almost 2 years, I have experience with walking a large dog (<75 lbs) along with feeding, cleaning, and playing. I have also walked other types of dogs from small to large from friends and family. I absolutely love walking, moreso than my own dog as she’s a bit lazy haha! I walk over 6-7 miles everyday, so I would love to add your fur baby into my daily walking routine! I also do drop-in visits as well. I am more than happy to feed, play, do short walks, and give pets as much as your dog desires! I absolutely love meeting new dogs and hopefully, being a happy part of their day! I also have volunteered at the Pasadena Humane Society to care for rabbits and had a pet rabbit when I was younger, so I also have experience with them! I’m currently a full-time student at UCLA, but I am available almost every day except Tuesdays and Thursdays. I am available from 11 AM-9 PM, so I am pretty flexible with anything! When I walk my dog, I love going to my local parks and around my neighborhood. For your dog, we can walk around your neighborhood or go to a park, whichever is more comfortable with you. For both dog walks and drop-in visits, I will give my full attention to your dog and make sure they get lots of pets.

I made a last minute change due to emergency and Jarvis could still accommodate. My velcro baby seems to get along with him. Jarvis kept me updated with photos, responded quickly, and raised questions about pet care. My fur baby needs to have eye drops every hour and he did it for me.
