Pet Sitting in Sylmar

About: Currently have a Terrier Mix doggy of my own. I use to have a Pitbull Mix but he passed away few years ago. I have experienced with senior dogs and can administer oral medications. My availability is very flexible on the weekends, whether it’s mornings, afternoon, or evenings. I can do check-in/ drop-in visits or pet sit for you at your convenience. Please let me know your pet’s feeding, walking, potty routine to accommodate their needs. I can provide you with photos throughout the day or evening! :)

“So glad we found Holly!! She is super reliable and came on time for our drop ins every day. I left super specific instructions and she followed them perfectly! Our pup is slow to warm up to new people, but she spent extra time with him to make sure he actually went outside to stretch his legs and do his business. She left very thorough post visit notes and uploaded so many great photos. I truly felt that he was in great hands while I was away. We will be using Holly’s services again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and started walking them when I was 10. Three years ago, I adopted my own cat, and I currently dog-sit my aunt’s dog regularly. I have experience feeding, walking, and providing companionship for pets, and I love spending time with animals to keep them happy and safe. I am available most days and can provide pet care anytime. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I am in college part-time but am free after 4 PM. Other than that, I am available anytime and flexible with short notice requests. I care for pets in their own home by following the owner’s routine closely. I feed pets on schedule, walk dogs, clean litter boxes, and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

“Thank you for being so helpful and flexible!”

About: I’ve been on Rover for about 4 years now. I take care of the dogs as if they are my own and love giving them all the attention and cuddles they want. I’m also happy to walk, feed, and provide meds for them. I’m currently unemployed, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pups! My availability is open all week for walks, sitting, and some play time. I ensure that all the gates are closed if the dogs will be outside and I make sure that they aren’t outside when it’s too hot for their paws.

About: For the past 5 years I've pet sat for family and friends, especially during the summer. Many have suggested I venture out to pet sit on the side because they love how I care for their pets. Pets are part of the family and I understand the importance of a trusting pet sitter. Your pets safety and well being will always be my priority! I work full time as an emergency room technician. I work 3 twelve hour shifts a week allowing me to have 4 days out of the week to help clients with any pet care needs! I have the flexibility of offering all day/night services both weekdays and weekends! My priority is the safety and well being of your pet! I thoroughly review all the information provided of your pet and communicate any questions I may have. I make an effort to know feeding schedules, potty preferences and activity schedules before meeting your pet. My goal is make sure your pet feels at home with zero disruption to their routine.

“Talitha was communicative and friendly, our cats were well looked after over the 12 days we were gone”

About: I’ve had a dog since I was 12. I’ve taken care of them for friends and family. I have two cats of my own. I love animals so much. I currently work full time from home so I’m available in the evenings and weekends. Usually weekends I can do anytime unless I have a prior commitment but that’s rare. My own cats stay inside I do not let them out for their safety. I do let them out for a little bit to get sun and to exercise but they’re supervised. I will keep pets inside or outside as needed only. And keep an eye on them.

“It was lovely to meet Janelle. She was right on time for our meet and greet, stayed long enough to get all important information, asked good questions and was gentle and kind with my senior dog. I am sorry we were not able to work together this time but I do think Janelle would be a good sitter for someone else.”

About: I have lots of experience working with dogs, including dogs of all sizes. I have my own mode of transportation, and I am very reliable. References available! I am home from college for the summer, I have a flexible schedule and my own mode of transportation. I am available from around 9 am to 10 pm ish! I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine by following owner instructions closely, maintaining a clean environment, and providing constant supervision. I ensure pets feel secure, get plenty of attention, regular exercise, and a calm, loving atmosphere tailored to their needs.

“Lisa is great! Would highly recommend her services. She dropped in on our two cats while we were out of town - she followed all of our instructions, was extremely communicative and we came home to two very happy cats. Thank you Lisa!!”

About: I’ll care for your dog like It’s my own. I’ll match their energy so that it can be a playful and/or relaxing time. Plus I am a really patient person, so it helps when I care for my dogs when its time to brush their fur, give them a bath, walk them or train them. I work a part-time job, so I can definitely be available for a few days out of the week. With a few days in advance notice it works out perfectly with me. I love caring for my 2 dogs and making sure their needs are met, and I can assure you I can provide the same attention to your furry friends.

About: I have been caring for pets (dogs and cats) since I was 5 years old as both a pet owner and sitter. I understand how difficult it can be to be away from your pet family members and will send regular pics and updates to keep you informed about your pet's well-being while you're away. I have always been passionate about researching and finding effective natural solutions to support pet health and am happy to recommend helpful approaches for your pets specific needs at your request. I also have lots of senior dog care experience, and am comfortable administering most meds that don't involve needles. My beloved senior dog with special needs (lost use of hind legs among other things) recently passed away and I miss him but am so thankful for the time we had. I learned a lot about using natural remedies to support senior dog health from him and also learned to walk him with support for his hind end. I am currently able to provide drop in visits for pets in the Mountain Glen I community in Sylmar at this time. If you live in this community and need help caring for your family pet, please reach out so we can arrange a time to meet. Happy to help with dogs, cats and possibly other kinds of pets. I can board too, but only for pets I know and have worked with previously. I always look for and implement practices that will create a safe, peaceful, healthy and nurturing environment for pets in my home and only board pets from the same home at the same time. Boarding and day-care are only available for pets I know and have worked with previously.

About: I’ve fostered all kinds of animals of all ages. I’ve bottled fed both puppies and kittens. I am a foster failure I’ve adopted my last 3 fosters. I love animals they’re the best companions. I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to care and play with your pets. I can board any day any time. I have a gated yard, and friendly dogs and cats who could keep your pet company. I can also crate your pet if that is your preference.

About: I was a pet owner myself of 2 dogs and 2 cats for 6 years. I understand fully the needs and the responsibilities that comes with pets. I am great at following specific instructions. I am great in communication and punctuality. I am available past 4:30pm Monday’s-Friday’s. Saturday’s and Sunday’s I am completely available! I would love to do dog walking in the morning to the evening on weekends. My apartment is very safe and pet friendly. I have my own room and live with my mom and younger sister. All neighborhood dogs and cats are very friendly but I can definitely accommodate to your specific needs.

About: Passion is what drives my work! My only goal is to give animals the unconditional love they gives us :) A pet is a crucial partner in life and sometimes we tend to forget that we are our pets entire world. I’m currently a full time teacher assistant Monday-Friday 8-2:30. That leaves the rest of the afternoon and weekends to hangout with my Rottweiler Naia. With this job, it’ll allow me to spend quality time with more pooches other than my own. I have a nice backyard located right behind a park where my pooch gets enough versatile interactions. Many scents for Naia to smell, she loves to play fetch and will catch anything I toss in the air. She’s a huge fan of my scratches and will be there for hours if she could. I tend to feed her twice a day with appropriate portions of personalized kibble, wet food, and warm water for heat.

About: I provide calm, home-style boarding with maximum of 2 dogs at a time, so each dog gets plenty of attention and space. My home has a large, fully gated yard and an open layout, so dogs can move freely and feel comfortable-no overcrowding or stress. I am experianced with dogs up to 80 lbs and focus on creating a safe, relaxed environment, especially for dogs who don't do well in busy boarding settings. I keep routines consistent and send regular updates, photos, and videos so you always know how your dog is doing. this is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a calm, clean and secure home while you're away. I always had dogs in my family and I was taking care of them. Also, I took care of our family’s and friend’s dogs. I like to interact, to play with them, that they won’t feel alone. Fortunately, I am home always to give potty breaks, provide treats, and get in some cuddle and playtime. I always had dogs.. Three years ago, I had three dogs. Two of them passed away. Third one, Chihuahua, who passed away last year. I missed my dogs. It’s very soon and difficult for me to get another dog, but I will be happy to have guest pets in our house. I live in a house with backyard. I have a fully fenced backyard if your pup loves to be outside. I am home all day and night, and dogs are my life. I take them out for walks around a beautiful quiet neighborhood. Lots of birds, trees, squirrels, and all the fun stuff dogs enjoy.

“Super punctual and gives amazing updates”
