“We LOVE Lindsey! She has such a sweet, calm energy that our big babies (two 90 pound Pitbulls) absolutely loved. We’re so grateful to have found her, and will absolutely be reaching back out to her on our next travel. Oh, she also sent pictures every day, and checked in with us without us asking. She was absolutely fantastic! Thank you Lindsey!”

“Casandra stayed with out two dogs and cat over the holidays and I’ll admit I was feeling anxious in general leaving them for 4 days, but she put me right at ease with her excellent communication and frequent check ins! She sent us lots of pics, confirmed notes I left about them and was very diligent in her care. Can’t say enough good things about Cassandra and look forward to booking again in the future.”

About: I’m a dog mom of two and have raised both of my dogs since they were puppies, so I’m very experienced with daily care, routines, and potty training. I’m comfortable reinforcing training, giving treats appropriately, and helping dogs stick to their normal structure. I also have experience administering medications, as one of my dogs has gone through surgery and required consistent care during recovery. In addition, I regularly care for my friend’s mini dachshund, who I’ve been watching since she was just 2 months old and continue to watch almost every month. Because of this, I’m very comfortable with puppies, small dogs, and maintaining routines that help them feel safe and secure. I also have experience with leash reactivity, so I understand how to handle dogs that may need a little extra awareness, patience, and space while on walks. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, timely walks, and stick closely to their usual routines. I’m able to plan my day around their needs, whether that’s feeding schedules, playtime, or just keeping them company so they feel comfortable and cared for. I also help take care of my sister’s cat when she’s away, so I’m used to checking in, maintaining routines, and making sure cats feel comfortable in their own space. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable and stress free. For drop in visits, I handle feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I also make sure to give them attention and companionship so they don’t feel lonely. For in home pet sitting, I maintain their full daily routine, including walks, feeding schedules, and downtime. I’m attentive to behavior, cleanliness, and safety, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and check ins so you have peace of mind while you’re away. As a pet owner who has used pet sitters myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I aim to provide the same level of reliability, communication, and care that I would want for my own animals.

“Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..”

“Melia is the most incredible dog and house sitter I have ever worked with. Our dog is extremely difficult and terrified of people. Melia’s manner was so gentle that our dog took to her immediately. She clearly has true empathy for animals and deep understanding of how to care for them. I won’t go into the story here, but she essentially saved our dog’s life while we were out of town. My gratitude for Melia is boundless after this incident. Additionally, the house was spotless when we arrived home. Melia truly goes above and beyond all expectautons!”

“Elizabeth did a great job for us. Animals were fine. House was fine. We'll be back.”

“Zeni was great. She took wonderful care of our dog for a whole week while we were away. She was also very communicative, sending us daily updates. We look forward to working with her again and would definitely recommend her to anybody!”

Ellen S.

“Mary did an excellent job caring for our 2 dogs and cat while we were away for the weekend. She is an excellent communicator, follows all instructions and gave our babies so much love! Will be booking her again :)”

“Kristen was amazing. We booked her last minute, but she still made time to come to our home, meet Chapo, and take notes on everything she needed to know. Our flight was early in the morning, and as soon as I sent the request, she responded right away and came over to learn about his meds, routine, and schedule. We’re so grateful for her. She played with Chapo, took him on walks, and made sure he got his meds since he had an upset stomach when we left. She updated us every time she was with him, which gave me so much peace of mind during our trip. Highly recommend her!”

About: 🦮🐕‍🦺🐕🐩🐕‍🦺🦮 Dog Experience 🦮🐕‍🦺🐩🐕🐕‍🦺🦮 I have experience caring for a wide range of dogs, including pit bulls, german shepherds, huskies, english bullterriers, bulldogs, poodles, and american bullies. I’ve raised and trained my current dog (Bruce Wayne) from a puppy and cared for my previous dog (Stella Rose) through all stages of life. Stella died from pancriatic cancer, giving me experience with senior care as well. I’m comfortable with all temperaments and energy levels, from high-energy dogs (like Bruce Wayne) to low energy dogs and older pets (like Stella Rose). 🐈‍⬛🐟🦜🐸🐢 Other Pet Experience 🐢🐸🦜🐟🐈‍⬛ I have experience with all different kinds of animals, from cats, to reptiles and aquatic pets. I particuarly have experience with cats, pac-man frogs, suckerfish, shrimp, pond fish, my grandmother's evil sun conure & golden jenday mixed bird, and turtles. Even though I don't have much experience with hamsters, mice, snakes, spiders, lizards and other animals, I am comfortable with all of them & feeding them their respective meals (live or dried). 🫶🏻 ✨✨✨✨✨✨ About Me ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ I’m very patient and understanding with all pets. I’ve worked with shy, agressive & what many would consider to be straight up evil (my grandmothers bird) animals, earning their trust over time. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Sometimes pets can have a difficult time eating because of how much they miss their owners. If this happens (& if it's okay with the owners) I'll typically hand feed them to make sure your pet is getting the nutrition they need while your away. 🫶🏻 ⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰ Schedule ⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰ I’m currently a college student at CSULB with a pretty consistent class schedule & outside of school activities, which allows me to plan my pet care visits according to that. Depending on the day I’m typically available in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I make sure to schedule my time so pets receive all the attention, walks, and care that they need. I’m dependable and communicate clearly if anything in my schedule changes. Right now I'm on summer break so I'm available almost all the time! 🫶🏻 🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠 Enviornment 🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠 I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding routines, exercise, and any specific needs. I’m attentive to behavior and prioratize making sure pets feel secure in their own home. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Hi folks!! I pet and baby sat many years ago throughout school and undergrad. I am a therapist currently on medical leave who wants to spend some time meaningfully connecting with sweet souls who don’t use many words :) I adore animals and have had them my whole life (at the most, I had 5 at once! 3 cats and 2 dogs). I also regularly help care for community cats here in Long Beach informally - helping get them food, water, and medical care when needed is important to me. They’re a special part of our neighborhood! Happy to provide personal references. I want to know what will make you feel most at ease taking care of your beloved! Please do reach out if you feel I may be a good fit. My schedule is pretty open and flexible. love to have a little bit of warning for a booking, but I have a great deal of time on my hands these days. I will take your lead - let me know what works best for your family and pet, and I am happy to oblige. Beyond that, I’ll do my best to read your fur baby and their needs, and to provide accordingly. Safety comes first, attunement comes second, fun and everything else comes third for me :)

“I am very happy that Shauna stayed and cared for all my four legged “kids”! They were all happy to see me but very well adjusted on my return. The house is as I left it- with a welcome note on my arrival. Shauna was great at sending pics and communications while I was gone and I would ask her to return to care for my gang in a heart beat! This is my first experience with Rover and I am completely satisfied! Thank you!”

“This was the second time Michael helped Mochi and me cope while I was away, this time over the New Year's holiday! Knowing Michael was giving Mochi lots of love and care let me focus on what I went away to do. He also helped me with garbage collection and package deliveries. Thank you for taking such good care of Mochi and the house!”

About: I've done it all — puppy chaos, senior snuggles, and everything in between. With 20+ years of hands-on experience and dogs I've raised myself, I know what your pet needs. I work a flexible full-time schedule from my home where I can care for your pet and take breaks to walk and play with them. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I am available to sit them there as my daytime job is remote. I am tidy and leave every space the same (if not better) than when I entered. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority. Having grown up in a home where dogs of all sizes were cherished family members, I understand how to read a pet's needs and create a calm, secure environment. I've personally raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I'm experienced in adapting care routines to each stage of life. In my home, pets are never an afterthought — they're treated with the same patience, attention, and love I'd want for my own family members (human or otherwise). 🧡
