About: I’ve been around dogs and cats pretty much my whole life and have taken care of dogs for friends and family for years. I’m really comfortable around different types of dogs and understand how to read their behavior and approach them in a calm, respectful way. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and well looked after. I’ve always been around pets growing up, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my routine. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I regularly help friends and family by taking care of theirs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it and make it a consistent part of my daily and weekly schedule whenever the opportunity comes up. At the moment, I’m not able to host animals at my place of residence. I’m hoping that changes soon so I can incorporate pet care more into my daily routine, but for now I’m happy to provide care in your home.
About: I’ve had the pleasure of caring for 2 dogs, Max & Layla that were unwanted and abandoned, both lived long and happy lives under my care, reaching ages 16 & 13. Sadly Max passed away in June of 2017 and Layla passed away in September of 2024 I’m based in North Hollywood and available most afternoons and evenings. I currently work in the health and fitness industry, typically from 5:30am - 1:30pm. Showing up on time and providing excellent care is something I take pride in I spent 20 years taking care of dogs with special needs, I have a lot of experience in keeping both people and pets in a safe and happy environment. My last dog Layla was a troubled rescue from the Los Angeles Animal Shelter I was able to rehabilitate her and give her a wonderful life
“Bianca is so dependable and kind. We’ve received her help on multiple occasions (over 5 times now) - for my pets feeding and walking schedule and she was just lovely, great communicator and reliable. Thank you Bianca !”
About: Pet care is built into my daily routine. I work from home and my cats and I are pretty much attached at the hip. Their feeding schedule is four times a day, so my day naturally includes consistent check-ins, meals, playtime, and care. I focus on making cats feel safe, calm, and as low, stress as possible, especially when their routine is disrupted. I follow their lead and give them space to adjust at their own pace. Patience is key; I never force interaction and instead build trust through consistency, gentle care, and respecting their boundaries.
About: Growing up I’ve always had a love for animals! From the biggest to smallest little guys! Their happiness, health, and comfort is always my priority! Im currently a full time nursing student so I have free time to go for walks and take care of your special fur baby! I love animals and enjoy caring for them! In my home I have a big fenced back yard where your dogs can get sun and play time! Free to roam in safe environment!
“I recently hired Seanna for my pup, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! When she dropped him back off, he was in great spirits and seemed really happy. Communication was a breeze, and she was incredibly easy to work with. I definitely feel comfortable leaving my fur baby in her care and will absolutely book her again! Highly recommend!”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give to every dog in my care. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and energy levels, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who may need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m happy to follow your dog’s established feeding, walking, medication, and training routines and reinforce basic commands and positive behaviors according to your instructions. Most importantly, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I will treat your dog with the same kindness, attention, and care I would want for my own, while keeping you updated so you can feel comfortable while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my routine because I have consistent work hours and can plan my availability ahead of time. I work Monday through Friday from 10:30 AM to 7:00 PM, which gives me availability in the mornings before work and in the evenings after work for walks, drop-ins, feeding, and quality time with your pet. I also work every other Saturday from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM, so on my Saturdays off I have much more flexibility throughout the day. Sundays are also a great day for me to provide pet care. I’m dependable about scheduling and will always make sure I only accept bookings that I can give the proper time and attention to. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, playtime, and any special needs your pet may have. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, affection, and enrichment while also respecting their personality and boundaries. I keep their space clean, make sure they always have fresh water, and pay close attention to any changes in their behavior or well-being. I’m also happy to send photos and updates so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is being loved and cared for.
“Emily relieved my stress when I was at work by coming to my home and taking my puppy Zorro for his bathroom break. She always updated me as to her schedule, was on time, courteous, always kept in real-time communication, even cleaned his paws and gave him a treat I left for him before she left. Will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you Emily!”
About: Beloved pets have been a constant in my life as I grew up with cats and dogs. I have experience caring for my friends and family companions, walking their dogs, feeding cats, and spending time with each one! My current cat is a rescue cat who needed a lot of patience and time to build the trust he needed. He is now a chatty little fellow with quirks from his street cat days. I am very patient and respect each unique personality pets have. I also have experience caring for birds! I am currently a freelance illustrator working from home. This allows me to be very flexible and can adjust to the schedule that fits your family. I have a cat of my own that runs a tight schedule so I completely understand how valuable these routines are for your pets. I enjoy staying active and am happy to spend some time to give your pets the care they need. I live in an apartment with my own rescue cat so I won't be able to host any animals as it is a smaller space for multiple pets. I will follow all directions provided and ask any questions necessary to provide the care you pet needs.
About: My pets are like my babies! I treat them with respect and love as they too deserve it. Youre babies will be in great hands. It fits into my daily lifestyle as Ive always cared for my animals at home and made sure theyre living comfortably! Your pets will have the same!

About: I have 12+ years of professional pet care experience and have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’m Fear Free Certified and Pet First Aid & CPR Certified, and I take pride in providing dependable, attentive care that is tailored to each individual pet. I have a special place in my heart for senior pets and understand that they often need a little extra patience, attention, and flexibility. I’m also comfortable caring for shy, anxious, or slower-to-warm-up pets and always allow them to interact with me at their own pace. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, appetite, mobility, and changes in routine so I can help keep your pet comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether I’m providing boarding, house sitting, daycare, or drop-in visits, I do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and preferences. That includes meals, potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and plenty of downtime depending on what makes your pet happiest. I know that the little details matter, so I take the time to learn your pet’s routine before their stay. Communication is incredibly important to me. You can expect regular updates and lots of photos so you can see how your pet is doing and enjoy your time away without wondering what’s happening back home. Most importantly, I care for every pet as an individual. Some dogs want to play all day, some would rather curl up next to me on the couch, and some need time to decide whether I’m worthy of being their new friend! My goal is to create a safe, comfortable, and positive experience where your pet receives the same level of attention and affection I would want for my own. 🐾 I work from home Monday through Friday, with a set schedule from 5 AM to 2 PM. This allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day, ensuring pets are fed, let out, and cared for even during my work hours. I also use my lunch break for walks, giving pets a chance to stretch their legs and get some fresh air. My home features a secure fenced backyard, providing a safe space for pets to play and explore freely. With weekends free and the ability to adjust my schedule, I’m available to pet sit any day of the week, ensuring your furry friends receive the love, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s daily care, walks, or playtime in the backyard, I’m here to keep your pets happy and comfortable while you’re away. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, secure, and loving environment where pets feel at ease. My home is pet-friendly, with a fenced backyard for supervised play and plenty of indoor space for rest and relaxation. I ensure pets have their own comfortable areas and follow any specific instructions to maintain their routine. In your home, I prioritize trust and respect by adhering to your guidelines and treating your space as if it were my own. I ensure pets are fed on time, walked regularly, and given plenty of attention and affection. Safety is always my top priority, whether it’s securing gates, keeping toxic items out of reach, or being attentive to pets’ behavior. I communicate openly with pet owners, providing updates and photos so you can rest assured your pets are in good hands. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your furry family members.
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was in middle school. I’ve looked after cats, dogs, and even chickens. I’ve also house sat multiple times. I’m currently doing social media as a job. So my schedule is completely open to take care of your pets! I’m available for walking and sitting whenever you need. I currently like in an apartment with plenty of space to look after your pet. My place is completely pet friendly with a park right next to it for walks. If you prefer I also can pet sit in your home!
About: I’ve lived with and cared for animals all my life, and understand the kind of love and attention they need. Currently a cat mom of 1 and love meeting new furry friends! I’m currently working part-time from home, so can be available fairly often and am not traveling anywhere myself for a minute, so can be available for holidays or last minute care. Not currently caring for new animals in my home, but I do have a fenced yard if a brief stay were needed under extenuating circumstances.
“Found David last minute! He is flexible, dependable, and can follow instruction’s. He treats my dog like his own and trust him with his knowledge and care for pets!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, including my own German Shepherd/Husky mix and rescued Red Nose Pit Bull. Caring for them has taught me how to handle high-energy dogs, reactive behaviors, and the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, administering basic care, crate routines, playtime, and following detailed care instructions. As a behavioral interventionist, I’m calm, observant, and dependable, and I treat every dog as if they were my own while making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I work part-time, but I have a flexible schedule and always make pet care a priority. I carefully plan my days to ensure every pet gets the attention, exercise, potty breaks, and affection they need. I’m happy to provide updates with photos, follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, and communicate throughout each visit or stay so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow the owner’s instructions and take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs. I keep doors and gates secure, use leashes during walks unless otherwise instructed, and make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm environment. I have experience caring for high-energy and reactive dogs, so I’m comfortable adapting my approach to help each pet feel safe and comfortable. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing.

Lianna is incredible! She is caring, patient, and so attentive to Chili. She’s a true animal lover and treated Chili like her own. She regularly sent me photos of Chili throughout his walk and kept me updated. I’m definitely hiring her again, and you should too!
Emily relieved my stress when I was at work by coming to my home and taking my puppy Zorro for his bathroom break. She always updated me as to her schedule, was on time, courteous, always kept in real-time communication, even cleaned his paws and gave him a treat I left for him before she left. Will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you Emily!
Adam is the dog whisperer of dog whisperers. Our pitbull Camilla is normally hesitant to walk with a new person and will not venture far away from home the first time, but she was immediately smitten with Adam and they walked together for the entire hour! We have used so many dog walkers. This is the first and only time Camilla felt this comfortable with someone. We’re so happy we found someone our dog is excited to walk with. He didn’t even need to use treats to coax her. Adam is a needle in a haystack type of dog walker for the type of dog we have.
My pups immediately warmed to Emily and seemed to really enjoy their walks with her. Emily was attentive and easy to communicate with, handled the little extras easily (wiping paws, varying their walks, etc) and always brought my packages in (which I never asked her to do but greatly appreciated). I feel at ease knowing she’s got their backs. I will be booking her again imminently.
Luna LOVED DeShaude. Though I was not surprised -he has such a way with animals… they know he is safe and loves them 💙 we hadn’t seen him in a while and our older pup just passed so it was a bit hard to leave her but DeShaude made it so much easier. We got pics of walks and a report every time he took her out. Highly recommend!
Spencer is incredible! He’s been walking my dog Buffalo, and I couldn't be happier. He’s extremely punctual and has fast communication, which makes scheduling a breeze. It’s so reassuring that he owns the same breed; he truly understands their energy levels and how to handle them on a leash. He’s a total natural, and Buffalo always comes back happy!

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
