“Thank you so much Albina!! It was very last minute and bullet had a good time. You were very communicative and the drop off and pick up was very quick. If I was in your area, she would be regular there.”

“Jose and his family were so kind and patient with this energetic pup. They gave him lots of walks, let him hang out and sunbathe outside, and played with him to keep him stimulated. Oakley came home a happy boy. Les recomiendo a José con su perrito. 🩷”

“I definitely recommend Tabitha! She was patient and adaptable to the needs of our dog with separation anxiety. We had great communication throughout, and you can just tell from her vibes she is a great dog person. Thank you so much for giving us peace of mind while we were out! Junie says thank you, too! 😊”

“Bernadette took great care of Wensley. He seemed really content when I picked him up, and I appreciated her flexibility as far as drop off time. She's a great communicator and kept me posted with pictures. I will definitely be using Bernadette again for Wensley's future doggy daycare needs. Also, he loved the extra little doggy treats Bernadette had made. Such a great little surprise.”

“Michelle & Liz are such amazing caretakers! They’re so attentive to any special requirements your pup may have, and are so kind. We had to reschedule because my dog got sick, and they checked up on her just because they cared. It meant so much! They are great sitters.”

“Marcus was very communicative with us and patient with our small 1 year old dog. We very much appreciate him watching our pup, playing with her and calming her down when she started to miss us due to separation anxiety issues she has been having recently. Thanks again, Marcus!”

“Christine is such a gem! I found her last minute the day before I needed daycare for my 2 small terriers. She responded very quickly and was able to accommodate within minutes a quick meet and greet with my girls. I felt confident and comfortable leaving my girls with her the next day. They had so much fun exploring the yard, home, and making new friends with her pup, Suki, and another dog, Pluto, that was boarded. Upon pickup Christine gifted me some sweet printed photos of my girls and delicious citrus from one of her trees. Such a sweet gift! I highly recommend Buddy’s Retreat and I look forward to booking again the future!”

About: I have a rich personal history of caring for dogs. Since childhood, I’ve lived in a family with dogs of all sizes — from a small breed like the Russian Toy Terrier to a large breed like the Collie. This gave me experience with different temperaments, energy levels, and care needs. Later, I had a pug of my own, and taking care of him was a big part of my daily life. He taught me responsibility, patience, and how to be attentive to a dog’s emotional well-being. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, brushing, playing, and simply spending time with dogs. I always try to create a calm, safe space where they can feel relaxed and loved. I am currently not employed full-time, which gives me the flexibility to fully dedicate my time and attention to caring for your dog. I am available during the day for walks, playtime, and companionship, and I can also offer overnight care in a calm and cozy environment. I’m also happy to arrange drop-off or pick-up at any time that works best for you. This allows me to give your dog plenty of love and attention both day and night. I live in a spacious apartment in Sun Valley, Los Angeles, with a securely fenced area outside — perfect for safe potty breaks and fresh air. The space is comfortable for both small and large dogs, with plenty of room to play, relax, and feel at ease. My home is quiet, pet-free, and air-conditioned, making it a comfortable space during warmer days. I also live near a local park, which is great for longer walks and some extra fun time outside. Your dog will have my full attention, and I always do my best to create a warm, loving environment that feels just like home.

“Lisa and Trevor were very sweet!! She was super on top of its, even called me before the session to make sure I can talk to her about anything special regarding teddy. During the stay she kept me updated and made sure he was having a good time. Great stay!”

About: I treat every dog like family not just a job. With hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, I understand that every pup has their own needs, routines, and quirks. What truly sets me apart is my attention to detail, calm energy, and deep commitment to making pets feel safe, loved, and at home even when their humans are away. Pet care is woven into my everyday life it’s not a task, it’s a lifestyle. I have a fenced yard, which means dogs in my care get safe, outdoor playtime as part of their daily routine. I also have pets of my own, so I fully understand the love, attention, and structure they need to feel happy and secure. In my home, I create a safe, clean, and welcoming environment where pets can relax and be themselves. With a fenced yard, pets get secure outdoor time for play and potty breaks. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or bedtime rituals and make sure they get plenty of love and attention, just like my own pets do. When caring for pets in clients’ homes, I’m respectful, reliable, and detail-oriented. I stick to your routines to keep your pet comfortable and stress free while you’re away. From playtime and feeding to administering medication or sending updates and photos, I care for every pet as if they were my own and treat your home with the same level of respect.

“HIGHLY RECOMMEND MELISSA!!!! We had such a good experience with Melissa! I was nervous about sending my baby to a new dog sitter but I was in constant communication with Melissa and she made me feel so comfortable! I received so many photos of my dog and was able to tell he was clearly content, comfortable, and loved Melissa! She also gave him his medicine 🤗 We would definitely book again!”

About: I've had large breed dogs my entire life and volunteer regularly at shelters to help.socialize the animals to be more adoptable. My last rottie had leukemia and I cared for her throughout chemotherapy so have experience with many related health challenges. I recently exited my corporate career after 15 years of travel and computer work. I'm taking a break to recalibrate and spend more time outdoors being active. I have a fenced back yard and several crates that can be used if needed. My dog is very friendly and loves new friends to play with anyone- human or animal- that is open to play.

“Matthew has taken great care of our dog for long and short stays. She tends to be anxious around new people and dogs and he puts her at ease. He sends photos throughout the stay and communicates well. We’ll definitely book him again.”
