Pet Sitting Sylmar

About: With over five years of dedicated experience, I've cared for a wide range of furry, feathered, and scaled friends, from energetic puppies and cuddly cats to exotic birds and reptiles. I'm passionate about providing personalized attention, ensuring every pet receives their favorite treats, plenty of playtime, and comfortable routines. Owners consistently praise my reliability and the genuine bond I form with their beloved companions, always leaving them with peace of mind. As I'm currently unemployed, I have complete flexibility to dedicate ample time to your beloved pets. I'm available for drop-in visits, dog walking, and overnight stays at any time, seven days a week. Your pet will receive undivided attention and consistent care throughout the day, with plenty of opportunities for play, exercise, and companionship. I can easily accommodate last-minute bookings and extended care periods. When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize maintaining their familiar routines and environment. This includes adhering strictly to feeding times, administering any necessary medications, and engaging in regular walks and play sessions tailored to their energy levels. My goal is to provide a secure and loving atmosphere that minimizes any stress associated with your absence, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and well-cared for until your return.

About: I’ve cared for and owned dogs since I was 6 years old. At a young age my parents put me in charge of all pet responsibilities like clean ups, feedings, and grooming. I’ve pet sat for many family members before and my friends like to say I have a way with animals. Dogs have a very special place in my heart. I’m currently a college student and working part time. I do have open mornings most days of the week and what better way to fill that than caring for pets! I have a gated yard and grass for your pets to run and play in. I’m very attentive to what a pet needs and understand what they are asking for.

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! Hi pet parents! 🐾 To make sure I can give your fur babies the best care possible, here is a quick update on my current availability and my upcoming schedule: Current Work Days & Late-Night Walks On the days you see blocked off on my calendar, I am working my day job from 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM. Need a late-night walk? Please still reach out! I am happy to accommodate later evening walks or drop-ins on my work days once I wrap up. Upcoming Fall Schedule (Starting August 31) I will be starting my nursing school classes, which means my weekday availability will shift a bit: Mondays & Tuesdays: Unavailable 8:00 AM – 11:35 AM Thursdays & Fridays: Unavailable 6:30 AM – 2:55 PM Note: Outside of these specific class blocks, I am highly flexible! If you need care on these days, send me a message and we can easily work around my school hours. Looking forward to seeing your pups and kitties soon! 😊 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.

About: For four years, I’ve helped take care of my mom’s dog, so I’m very familiar with daily pet needs, from exercise and enrichment to maintaining routines. I’m gentle, attentive, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved. I am currently a student, so I have plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, playtime, and care that fits smoothly into my daily routine. I create a calm, safe environment for every pet in my care. I follow all feeding instructions, keep routines consistent, and make sure pets always have fresh water and a comfortable space to relax. I stay attentive, use positive handling, and prioritize each pet’s comfort and well‑being. I treat every animal with the same patience and care I give my own family’s dog.

About: I love all animals even the initially intimidating ones. I know how to read animals signals and access their comfort level. I give each pet the time it needs to get comfortable so that I can establish a relationship of trust. I'm nether a cat person or a dog person or a tortoise person for that matter, I love all pets equally. I've taken care of virtually every kind of house, pet (including my aunt's chinchilla) thank you got something I haven't seen before? Bring it on. I'm ready for it all. I don't consider taking care of pets to be at shore or work. I take care of them because they take care of me. They keep me calm and grounded, even when things are at their most chaotic. First things first, I treat each animal as if it were my own. I make sure to give each pet the attention it deserves. Upon first introduction and the patients to let it get comfortable when needed. From there I'm happy to take care of any special requests you might require for your pet.

“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 trained both of my own dogs (a full size Merle golden doodle + chihuahua) and have cared for senior dogs too. I’m patient, reliable and treat every animal like family. Being vegan is part of that same love for animals. I’m at ease with dogs of any size and experienced in handling bigger, stronger breeds safely. I’m an independent jewelry designer and founder of my brand so my schedule is flexible and can work around pretty much any schedule. My weekends and holidays are open as well. I care for pets in their own home, keeping their routine consistent, feeding on schedule, medications on time, and enrichment throughout the day. I’ve house sat for friends’ dogs, including but not limited to pit bulls, greyhounds, shih tzu’a and mixed breeds, always prioritizing their safety and comfort while respecting their home.

“Lisa was great with our little Lexi! She was on time, communicative ( we loved getting the photos) and followed instructions as were previously discussed. Lisa was excellent company for Lexi in our absence. We will definitely invite her back!”

About: I’m kind and patient with pets. I understand that they are not the same but do require the same type of care and love. I enjoy playing with them and giving them belly rubs and taking them for walks. I’m currently on summer breaks and would like to spend time caring for pets when their loved ones are away. It may be difficult on some families due to their schedule so I would like to make it easier on them. They way I would care for my clients pet at their home. I will check on them first and then see if they have water in their bowl. Will see if they require feeding. Lastly I will follow the instructions left my client. If they need a walk or play with them and keep them company.

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.

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.

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: Your pet will be wrapped in love every second they are with me 🐾🐶 I treat every fur baby like they’re part of my own family—with endless cuddles, happy dances, belly rubs, and all the love their heart can hold. 💕 With 2+ years of professional experience at a pet boarding facility / doggy daycare and over a decade of rescuing and raising animals, I’m confident caring for pets of all sizes and ages - from energetic puppies to gentle seniors.

I am usually available Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday Morning! Tuesday and Thursday: 6am - 3pm Sunday 6am to 11am Your pet’s safety is my top priority! During walks, I always use secure, properly fitted leashes/harnesses, avoid unsafe or crowded areas, and stay alert to surroundings. For drop-in visits, I double-check doors, gates, and food/water needs, and make sure your pet feels comfortable and calm before I leave

“Amazing dog walking and drop-in visit service! Great with my two large golden-doodles. Have booked multiple visits and will definitely book again!”

“Dude’s a hero. Saved the day for my dog while I was working a 24hr paramedic shift. He came in on less than an hour’s notice, after a terrible rover cancelled on me last minute, without notice or reason.”
