House Sitting Sylmar

“Michelle was amazing! I left Mylo our 1 year old puppy and Hamilton our 9 year old Frenchie who needed to be hand fed and Mylo is a handful and she went above and beyond! She even adjusted her Thanksgiving plans a bit in order to accommodate us! She is a star in our book!”

About: I have always loved animals and feel comfortable caring for small and medium dogs. I am calm, patient, and careful with pets. I can help with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and basic daily care. I always follow the owner’s instructions and send photo updates. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I can give pets attention, walks, feeding, and regular potty breaks. I am usually available on weekdays and weekends, depending on the booking. I prefer to care for one pet at a time so I can be focused and responsible. I live in an apartment and I keep the environment clean, calm, and safe. I do not leave pets off leash outside. I follow all care instructions carefully, keep doors secure, and make sure pets have fresh water, food, potty breaks, and attention. I prefer small and medium dogs.

About: I have grown up with animals of all kinds and have much experience helping friends and family with their fur babies. I currently live with a fur baby and would do anything for her. I would love to continue helping others in anyway I can. I am very trustworthy and will do anything to help leaving your fur baby easier for you. I am currently working a part time job so I have plenty of time to help and dedicate my time in anyway I can to play with the fur babies and make you and your pet comfortable. I am very trustworthy and will respect any and everything for the home of the pets. I am very respectful and believe I can make you and your pets very comfortable. I will send update pictures and videos as we play and wait for owners to come home.

About: I’ve had pets since childhood. I currently have a senior dog and my hands-on experience caring for adult dogs with specific emotional needs. Because I live with a senior, I am naturally patient, highly observant, and deeply respect a dog’s established routine. I am fully comfortable administering oral medications, including anxiety medication, and I know how to keep a calm, low-stress environment for pets who get nervous when their owners are away. Whether I am arriving for a high-energy neighborhood walk or providing cozy, in-home sitting, I focus on building trust with your dog at their own pace so they feel completely safe and secure. I’m a part time nanny and because my job doesnt start until 3:45pm my mornings and early afternoons are completely open for adventures! I’m here for bright and early mornings, or lunch drop-ins and daytime playdates. A quick note for house sitting friends: I do head out to my nanny job from about 3:15pm to 10pm on weekdays. I will always make sure your pup gets a long walk, and a full belly right before I leave, and I return immediately afterwards for overnight cuddles. If your sweet fur baby is happy to snooze and do their own thing for a few hours in the evening, we will be an excellent match. I look forward to meeting you and discussing how I can best support your pets daily routine. I already pet sit and house sit for several families in the area, and I make sure to treat every home and pet I visit exactly like my own-with total respect, love, and tons of belly rubs!

“Katherine did an amazing job caring for the pups. Making sure they were given a lot of attention love and care. She was able to administer the medication and the pups were super happy! We appreciate you Katherine and will definitely be booking again!”

“Kim was amazing! I’m a first time dog mom and was so nervous. She did great meeting Jake and really knew the best way to introduce herself to him! She gave updates and photos which helped ease my nerves. Highly highly recommend her to everyone and anyone!”

Alana S.

“We have NEVER felt so safe and comfortable leaving our boys with anyone. Veronica is a Godsend. She sent us pics every day. When our six year old asked whether the dogs missed us, she sent us an “e-card” from “them” to us. Our younger dog is very wary of new people, but warmed up to Veronica faster than he ever has to anyone. Our house was in perfect order when we got back. We love her!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I pet sit for family & friends, and i’ve decided to start taking care of other peoples pets because it’s something that I love and enjoy! I am a kitten foster, I work with a rescue and have taken care of 7+ newborn kittens that were going to be euthanized. I love doing this not just as a job but as a hobby ☺️ I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am an overthinker so I always think about the worst case scenarios and do my best to avoid anything 😭 Besides that I am on my second year of college looking for a side hustle! If you have any concerns Ive probably researched it 99% of the time, so feel free to ask :) I have 1 cat (indoors & outdoor) and fenced back yard. Accommodations for your pets are available if they are not good with other animals. I have plenty of free time for play time. I enjoy going on walks and exploring nature.

About: My goal is to create an environment and relationship that makes your life easier and your pup happier. I’m loving, gentle, and patient with all pup ages! I’m available any day of the week. I just ask for a 2 day notice for booking and for canceling. For walks, preferably early morning or evenings (especially in hot days. I want your pup to enjoy their walk, and not be uncomfortable or in pain from the hot pavement) I appreciate your consideration! I adapt to what your puppy is used to. My goal is not to brake their routine. I would like to jump in where you need me to assist and maintain the routine you approve and would like to maintain. I’m here to help you both!

“Audrey was a fantastic house sitter. She sent us so many pictures of Cho when we were on our trip and took care of our place. Would be happy to book her in the future!”

Jasmine J.

“Our pups absolutely adore Keleigh. She is kind and patient with our crazy doodles. She plays with them and snuggles them as if they were her own. Highly recommend!”

Beth S.

“Cat was wonderful! Our pets loved her from the moment she came for the meet and greet. She took great care of them while we were gone and provided daily updates. Cat is very trustworthy, punctual, and we plan on booking her again for the next time we travel. Highly recommend hiring Cat to take care of your fur babies!”

Allison K.

“Cordelia was great with Rocky! She took the time for a meet and greet, communicated really well and seemed to really enjoy caring for a dog. We would recommend her and hope to use her again!”

About: I’ve spent nearly my whole life around animals, and I genuinely can’t imagine it any other way. Almost 30 years working with horses — training, rehabbing, and caring for them — taught me patience, how to read an animal’s body language, and how to stay calm when they’re not. That instinct carries straight over to dogs, cats, and just about anyone with fur. When your pet is with me, they’re not an obligation on a checklist. They’re company. I’ll keep their routine steady, give them the attention and exercise they need, and send you updates so you’re never wondering how they’re doing. Whether it’s an anxious rescue who needs a gentle hand or a high-energy goofball who needs a real walk, I’ve got them. Acton/Santa Clarita area. Reach out and tell me about your crew — I’d love to meet them. I work from home, so pets aren’t squeezed into the margins of my day — they’re part of it. My schedule is flexible, which means I can match your pet’s routine instead of forcing them into mine: morning walks, midday check-ins, feeding times, all of it stays consistent with what they’re used to. Between my own animals and my work with horses, caring for animals is already woven into every day. Adding your pet to that rhythm isn’t a stretch — it’s just one more member of the crew. I’m around throughout the day to keep an eye on things, so your pet gets steady attention rather than a quick drop-in and gone. In your home, my first priority is keeping your pet’s world exactly as they know it — same feeding spots, same walk routes, same routine. I don’t rearrange things or cut corners. I make sure doors, gates, and yards are secure before anything else, because a lot of trouble starts with a gate that didn’t latch. I keep your keys and access details private and treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine. With animals themselves, decades of reading horses taught me to watch body language closely — I can tell when a pet is anxious, overstimulated, or not feeling right, and I adjust instead of pushing. New environments and unfamiliar dogs get introduced slowly and on the pet’s terms. I keep an eye on hazards most people miss: food left out, toxic plants, an open trash can, a fence gap. You’ll hear from me with updates and photos so you always know your pet is safe and settled. If something seems off health-wise, I’ll reach out right away rather than wait — and I’ll always have your vet’s info on hand just in case.

“If you’re reading this and considering booking Margarita to care for your dog I highly recommend!!! I was extremely nervous using rover (my first ever booking was with her) and for my little puppy but the second she walked into my apartment I felt at ease and how much she loved dogs! She sent me so many photos and videos. She followed all directions and she even got my puppy to use his grass pad which he is stubborn with :) she even cleaned up his toys so my house looked more organized when I got home. I feel lucky to have found her and will be booking again!”

“I could not have asked for a better care giver for our fur baby while we were out of town than Emily. My kitten does not do well alone and she stayed at our home with him and he took to her right away. She provided me with regular updates, was incredibly kind and responsive, respectful, and responsible. She was in ongoing communication with me and followed every ask I had. I would use her again in a heartbeat!”

About: As an experienced pet caregiver, I bring a unique blend of compassion, expertise, and specialized skills to ensure the utmost care for your furry family member. With my unique blend of skills, compassion, and dedication, I am confident that I can provide exceptional care for your beloved pet. Let me be your trusted partner in ensuring your pet's happiness, health, and well-being while you're away. As an active individual balancing online school, incorporating pet care into my daily and weekly routine is a seamless and fulfilling aspect of my life. Despite the demands of coursework and extracurricular activities, I prioritize my pet's well-being by integrating their care into my schedule in the following ways: 1. Morning Exercise Sessions: I kickstart my day with a brisk morning walk or jog with my pet 2. Scheduled Breaks: Throughout my online school day, I incorporate regular breaks to tend to my pet's needs. 3. Weekend Adventures: On weekends or days with lighter academic commitments, I seize the opportunity to embark on longer outdoor adventures with my pet. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment in my home, free of hazards or harmful substances. This includes securing potentially dangerous items, such as household cleaners or small objects that could be swallowed, and providing ample space for pets to roam and play safely. Before providing care in a client's home, I take the time to build trust and rapport with both the pet and the owner. I communicate openly with the client to understand their expectations, preferences, and any specific instructions regarding pet care. Respect for Environment: I respect the client's home and property, maintaining cleanliness and adhering to any house rules or guidelines provided by the client. This includes respecting designated pet-free areas, ensuring gates and doors are securely closed, and cleaning up after pets as needed.

“Alex quickly responded to my request to housesit my pups and asked all the right questions prior to and during her stay. She took really good care of them and I received daily pics of my dogs having a great time with her. I will definitely book Alex again.”

“Rafa went above and beyond to take care of our two completely opposite dogs and our home while we were on vacation for 2 weeks. We felt so comfortable knowing we were leaving them in such great hands as well as our home. She is a very good communicator and super respectful. We will definitely use her services again and highly recommend.”

About: I’m a compassionate, dependable animal lover who understands how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to keeping each pet comfortable, safe, and loved while their family is away. Whether your pet enjoys walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I’ll follow their normal routine and give them personalized care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel completely at ease. Being a full-time student taking care of fury-children compliments my lifestyle. I’m a spiritualist at heart. I love a nice meditation, yoga, & nature walk to center myself in my day. I care for each pet according to their individual routine, personality, and comfort level. In a client’s home, I follow all feeding, medication, playtime, walking, and litter-box instructions carefully while keeping the space clean, calm, and secure. I give cats time to approach me at their own pace and provide affection, play, or quiet companionship based on what makes them feel safest. I also send regular photo and message updates so pet parents can feel reassured while they are away.
