About: I grew up having large dogs and am currently an aunt to a grey cat who is named Booboo. I allow pets to show their personality in order to give them the best care and keep them happy. I’m available Friday afternoons, Saturdays and Sundays. Just message me :) I’m flexible as long as I have a few hours notice. I can do mornings, afternoons or nights as needed I follow all care directions given by owners. I currently feed and play with my cat and give her lots of love. I will make sure all pets are taken care of and are kept safe

About: What sets me apart is my experience handling multiple pets at once while still making sure each one gets individual attention and care. I’ve cared for several dogs and cats together in the same household, so I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with young dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to help reinforce basic training like leash manners, sit, stay, and good behavior during walks and feeding time. I also genuinely love going on long walks, so high-energy dogs get the exercise and mental stimulation they need, not just a quick potty break. Above all, I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable by sticking to their routines and treating them like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time gigs after moving cross country in mid-2025 and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to make many times work and am able to sleep over or drop in as needed. I make sure to prioritize safety by anticipating potential dangers. My past experience as a daycare teacher has given me eyes on the back of my head and readiness for issues or safety concerns. I make sure spaces remain safe and comfortable for your pet and respect your guidelines and routines.

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.

Myla was fantastic. She came by to feed and water our cat and dog. Our cat rarely comes out for anyone but us. But the cat LOVED Myla. She sent us a bunch of both our fur babies looking happy every time she visited. Great sitter! We will definitely call on her again.

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.

I highly recommend my dog sitter! He is always on time, very responsible, and does a great job taking care of my dog. I really appreciate his daily updates and reports—they give me peace of mind while I’m away. I will definitely book him again the next time I go on vacation. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby! 🐾❤️

About: I'm a young active college student that used to have a dog. He was very large so I'm very aware of how to handle all types. I truly will work on tending to your needs and being a security guard I'm very good with following directions. I truly loving and playful, I'm not one to disappoint. With that being said I'm truly flexible with dogs needs and everyday care, I will put on active wear if we need to run or walk and I'm a protector, so I would treat them like my very own. My mother has taught me that updates are the most comforting thing so if that's what you need to know your dog is safe a text takes 2 min out of our play time.

About: Hi there! I'm Joanna. I have experience in training puppies as well as watching over senior dogs. I can say I have a lot of patience and I understand how some dogs can be timid at first, but no worries I'm here to help bring out their confidence! I have always spent my time with dogs from a very young age. My dogs enjoy it when we go out for a hike, walk, or play dates at the dog park and I can definitely provide that for you if requested. Trust is one of the most important things and I know I will be able to provide that for you and your fur baby. I am a full-time student, but since the classes I'm taking are online, I can still be attentive to your fur baby at any moment! I currently only live with my small-sized dog, Archie. He is super friendly and enjoys going on walks, especially when he walks with other dogs. I understand how important they are in our lives and I definitely consider my dogs as my children so I would treat your pets just as how I would treat mine! I understand how every dog is different and they have different routines, but booking with an experienced dog sitter will ensure they get their needs met while giving you peace of mind!

It was such a pleasure trusting our cat to such a caring person! She was punctual and attentive, and constantly sent photo and video updates during her visits. Our cat was happy and calm, and we could go about our business with total peace of mind. Highly recommended from the bottom of my heart!

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: I’ve always had dogs/cats throughout my life. I worry about them as if they were my own kid, animals bring so much joy to the world. I believe they deserve to live their best life ! I work throughout the day from 7-3:30 PM. I work down the street from my home, so it is very convenient to come to and back from my breaks. I will care for them as if they were my own. I love animals, I genuinely enjoy their company and believe they are little humans at heart. I will always make sure they are well fed, in right temperatures , and mentally stimulated.

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: 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: 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.

Leaving pets behind is always a nerve-wracking experience. Alexis went above and beyond to make sure our pets were well taken care of. I recommend her 100% and will be booking her again for all of our future pet-sitting needs.

We’re so lucky to have such an amazing dog sitter! Holly is incredibly patient with our doggo who can be stubborn when it comes to going outside for bathroom breaks. She always handles it with such calm persistence and care. We really enjoy the comedic photo updates, especially the “trail of treats” leading to a very judgmental looking Sam who is contemplating whether he should follow the trail and go outside. It always shows how much effort and creativity she puts in.

Jamie helped us out by looking after our shih tzu and cat during a week long trip. The 2x a day home drop-ins he provided went smoothly, without a hitch. We returned home to a happy dog, mail brought in and trash taken out. We'd call on Jamie again for any future travel plans.
