“Joy is by far the best dog / house sitter we have had! She made additional time to come over and meet us and our pups before we left for our trip. She is incredibly sweet, respectful, attentive to all the details, very prompt (which is a huge plus!) and an overall JOY to work with. We felt very comfortable having her stay at our home and watch out pups. She sent us many updates throughout the day with tons of photos. We will absolutely be hiring Joy again for all future trips! Thank you so much Joy!”

“Shanneal is a fantastic sitter - she took care of our two puppers, one of whom can be challenging and needs some specific care, for a couple nights at our house. She sent lots of pictures and did a great job making sure the doggies were happy. Highly recommend!”

“Sanaz is absolutely wonderful! Milo and especially Atlas adore her! They snuggle right up and are completely attached whenever she’s around. It’s clear how much love and comfort she brings them. I’ve already booked her again! She is truly wonderful.”

“Daniela is the best! She takes great care of our pup, fish, and house. She is so thoughtful and very communicative. We are so lucky and thankful to have found her!”

“Jojo is amazing to work with. She was great with our puppy Moose and sent fun and frequent updates during our trip. Our three year old daughter looked forward to them every day. She also took excellent care of our house and went above and beyond leaving some fresh fruit for our young daughter to make sure she had breakfast when we returned. Highly recommend!”

“Kim was super nice, friendly and professional and she was great with Nala! Made sure to send me pics and keep me updating while I was gone and Nala seemed really happy and taken care of. I would definitely work with her again! 🫶🏼”

“Absolutely amazing! We felt so comfortable with Prerana and Aubrey in our house with our little pups. So thankful we found them for our future trips!”

About: I’ve cared for animals my whole life and have experience with pets of all ages and personalities. I fostered two of my cats when they were just a few weeks old (foster fails!), so I’m very comfortable caring for kittens and animals that need extra patience or attention. Friends and family often rely on me to look after their pets because they know I’m gentle, dependable, and truly treat every animal like my own. I work from home full-time, so I’m almost always available for walks, drop-ins, and cuddle sessions. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day and adjust easily to their routines and needs. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are in a secure, calm environment and stick to their usual routines as closely as possible. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, preferences, and boundaries so they feel safe and cared for. Whether I’m in my home or yours, I keep doors and gates secured, use leashes and harnesses properly, and always double-check food and medication instructions. I treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own.
“House sat for the day and watched our 2 doggos. Stephanie kept the house clean and left our 2 boys tired and happy. Will absolutely be reaching out to her again and recommend her for your pet sitter needs! :)”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my life including birds, cats, and dogs. I have experience with senior dog care and rescue dog care. I understand that each pet requires their own level of attention and care and I will always be open to specific requests to meet their needs if they are senior. I grew up owning large dogs so I am able to walk your furry friend no matter what size they are. I am currently a sitter for a senior cat who needs extra cuddles and attention when his parents travel for work. I love running with high energy dogs and I will take my time with any nervous or calm dog. I am currently working part time so I would love to spend part of my day with your pet. I am available on weekends as well. I will always put your pets safety first. When visiting your pet I will be sure your door/ gate is closed after my visit. I will make sure pets water source is clean and filled before leaving your home. When walking your pet, I am extra vigilant.
“Ariana is extremely reliable, mature, and trustworthy. We left her for two overnights with our cats and she was in consistent communication with us. She followed all of our particular instructions and even went out of her way to bring in packages and our trash cans, looking after our house while we were away. Our boys had a wonderful time with her and we would book her again in a heartbeat! Thank you, Ariana!”

“Taylor was really patient with Luna, and built a relationship with her overtime. We are so grateful to have found Taylor and recommend her to others. She is a welcome addition to the pack! 🐾”

“Erika was great with my Labrador, she took great care, kept me updated, and followed all the instructions. She is super nice! She also left the house super clean and a special note for us. I am sure we will use her again.”

“Suezy is the best! She took such good care of my pup and my home. It was my first time leaving my baby Roux with a stranger and I was so nervous! But Suezy met with us early and eased any doubts. She was attentive, respectful, gave frequent updates, and left our home clean and without a trace (except for the adorable photos she took of roux during her stay)! I know my baby loved her just as much as I do. We will absolutely be booking with Suezy again in the future.”

About: My specialty is working with shy dogs who need a little extra patience and understanding. I genuinely love caring for pets and take pride in creating a calm, trusting bond with every animal I meet. I’m trained in pet first aid and CPR and have owned and operated my own licensed, insured pet care business serving Tarzana and Encino since 2017. Clients describe me as reliable, accommodating, and kind — the kind of walker their dogs recognize the second I pull up. Whether you need regular walks, vacation visits, or gentle senior care, your pets will always be treated like family Overnight Pet sitting Policy: my overnight pet sitting policy includes staying with your pet overnight, ie 8 pm- 6 am if you need it, walking dogs before bed and in the morning, feeding them and giving them lots of snuggles. It includes a midday walk. It does not include staying with them all day during the day. I have regular dog walks that I do during the day and pets at home that I need to visit and feed. Unfortunately, I am not available for 24/7 visits. I walk dogs and do pet visits full-time. This is what I I do. I take the care and safety of your pets very seriously. Your pet's safety and health is my number one priority. I am respectful of your home and am comfortable with security cameras and alarm systems to keep your home safe and secure.
About: I’ve raised my own dog from puppy to 10 years old and currently have an 8-month-old pup. My background includes hands-on animal care at farms, ranches, doggy day cares, and even Malibu Wine Safaris. I’ve worked with everything from reptiles to goats, and have spent years helping with feedings, enrichment, and daily care routines. I absolutely love being outdoors and caring for animals—whether it's daily walks, cuddles, or enrichment time. I believe love shows in how we work, and I always go the extra mile to ensure every animal feels safe, happy, and loved. I currently work weekends for Malibu Wines and Goldenvoice/AEG Presents, but my weekdays are completely open and flexible for your pets! I’d love to talk more about your needs. Whether in your home or mine, I offer personalized pet care including walks, feedings, training, enrichment, playtime, and snuggles. I’m experienced with multiple pets and flexible with routines! :)
“Jules was WONDERFUL with my dog Nahla. I was extremely nervous to leave her alone for the first time with someone who wasn't family, but Jules gave me peace of mind, was super communicative, and always kept me updated on what they were up to and how she was doing. Nahla is also a reactive dog that gets extremely agitated around other dogs. Jules was understanding and made sure to work with me on things she can/can't do to avoid any issues. She was able to handle her and even take her out on the town to get some socializing in! 1000/10 recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and involved sitter.”

About: I’ve raised four puppies and one cat of my own, so I understand everything from potty training and teething to building routines and creating a calm, confident environment for young animals. I also regularly dog & cat sit for friends, and their pets always leave happy, relaxed, and a little spoiled! The fur babies have NOTHING but good things to say about their stay at Aunt Sam’s! What sets me apart is my patience, intuition, and genuine love for animals. I’m attentive, gentle, and I take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s comfort for shy pets, structure for puppies, or extra TLC for seniors, I’m fully committed to making sure every animal feels safe, loved, and deeply cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. This means I can dedicate plenty of time and attention to your pets throughout the day. I genuinely love being around animals! Taking care of them brings me joy and adds so much brightness to my routine. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I’m able to be fully present and available whenever they need me. I treat everyone’s home like it’s my own, respectfully, responsibly, and with great care. As a former flight attendant, I have a keen eye for detail, cleanliness, and maintaining a calm, organized environment. Because I’m a writer who works from home, I’m able to provide attentive, around the clock care for your fur babies. I always follow your routines, safety guidelines, and house rules so your pets feel secure and your space stays just the way you left it. My goal is to create a peaceful, trustworthy environment where your pets can relax, have fun, and feel completely safe while you’re away.
