“My girls were so comfortable with her! And Laura was super sweet and understanding when my apartment decided to stop working over the weekend (no hot water until Monday night and due to a power surge on Friday, no stove/oven).”
“Cassandra was awesome!! Keep us up to date with tons of pics and videos! Walks every day and the park! Would absolutely have her watch them again 👏🏼”
“Kate did a great job! One of our dogs is reactive on a leash but Kate didn’t seem phased by it which made me feel better. The house looked great, she sent pics of the boys every day, and the dogs were happy, calm and exercised when we got home.”
“Brionna was easy to communicate with, shared lots of photos of our pups, and was very caring with both our dogs. Upon returning home, it was clear the dogs enjoyed being with Brionna (even our grumpy senior dog!). Felt very at ease knowing our dogs were in experienced hands. Looking forward to booking with Brionna again soon.”
“We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Shelli! She took excellent care of both our pup and our home while we were away. She stayed in regular contact with us and sent plenty of photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear she really bonded with our dog, Luli and paid close attention to the notes we had left—she went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. We came home to a happy dog and a spotless house. We’d definitely book her again in the future!”
“Kelsy was fantastic with our pup who is an old man who just enjoys company. She followed his schedule and send pics daily which we appreciated since we missed him a ton. Thanks Kelsy! Maxwell gives you a 10/10!”
“Absolutely amazing. I’m very particular about my baby boy and have a really hard time leaving him. Earl is 120 pounds and as much as he loves to cuddle he’s a lot of dog. Dylan made me feel so comfortable about leaving him. He took great care of my boy and earl just loved him! I will 100% be asking Dylan to watch my boy again any time I have to leave!!!!”
“Alyssa is an absolute gem! She watched my dog and cat in my home for a little over a week and they had the absolute best time. Updates were sent daily and all of my instructions for care were followed to a tee. Alyssa also left my home spotless!”
“Lissi was super warm and excellent with our pet. She was flexible, punctual, very communicative, and provided welcome updates throughout the booking. Great job, it was a pleasure working with her.”
“Madison was a great dog sitter for my two big dogs. I was so grateful for all. her picture updates while we were away, it helps me to relax when i can know my furry kids are having a good time. I could tell from some of the pics that my dogs had fallen in love with her. Madison was also very personable and nice when we met and took care of the home.”
About: Hi! I’m Sophia, a lifelong dog lover based in Lakewood, CA, where I live with three rescue pups. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was a kid - from energetic puppies to senior sweethearts. Nowadays I'm the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. With a career in government and politics, I bring the same level of professionalism, dependability, and attention to detail to every walk, drop-in, or overnight stay. Whether your pup needs a leisurely stroll or a high-energy adventure, I’ll treat them like one of my own. Let’s get those tails wagging! Right now, I’m focusing solely on dog walking and pet care as I take a break from my full-time career. I’ve always loved being around animals, and this time has given me the opportunity to fully dedicate myself to caring for dogs—whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just making sure they feel safe and loved. Since my schedule is currently flexible, I’m able to prioritize each pup’s unique needs and build consistent, dependable routines with them. It’s something I genuinely enjoy and feel passionate about every day. While I don’t offer care in my own home because I have three rescue dogs, I’m more than happy to care for pets in their own familiar environment. I believe dogs feel most comfortable and secure in their own space, so I focus on keeping their routine consistent—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or cuddle time. I pay close attention to each pet’s needs and personality and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I also keep owners updated with regular check-ins, photos, and notes for peace of mind.

“Kate has been taking care of my boys for a few months and she's so kind and patient. Irreplaceable as a sitter!”
About: Hello! I’ve worked at two doggie daycare/boarding facilities since 2020, working with small and large dog groups, including specialty one-on-one care. At my current job, I focus on feedings, medications, group enrichment activities and agility/basic obedience training. I have also been a kitten/cat foster parent since April 2020. Care has included bottle & syringe feeding, medication/vaccines, Pet care is a major factor in my daily/weekly routine. I work full time as a dog yard attendant and BOH supervisor at a doggie theme park, training, & boarding facility and have two cats at home. My partner and I also foster kittens through rescues in the LB area I can easily crate dogs if needed and have no problem handling dogs of any size. If the dog needs to come into my home for any reason, I can separate my cats into another room.
“Great sitter! It was my first time leaving my puppy and it went very smooth. Made sure to do a meet and greet before hand and sent picture updates during! Will definitely book again!”
“Jennifer goes above and beyond taking care of our pets. Just recently adopted a new puppy and she took stunning care of him. Always great at updating, sending photos, and giving treats for all the pets. She’s fantastic!”
