“Albina is THE best dog sitter. She takes such good care of our little pup Noodle. We will continue to use her whenever we need someone to watch him. Truly can’t say enough good things about Albina!”
“Another amazing boarding for my dog Eve. Irina is always so good with her and makes her feel so at home. I'm always at ease when I have to go away. Thanks once again!”
“Yulia went above and beyond, took such amazing care of my dog Annie. Sent lots of photos and it really showed how much love she gave my pup. Would recommend her to anyone and will almost certainly book again.”

“Dan was fantastic with Nancy. I was nervous about her staying with other dogs but he is seasoned and has the feeding already worked out. She had a blast and came home happy. Will definitely book with Dan again!”
“Margaret is absolutely wonderful! Our pup Riggy had the best time with her — she loved playing in Margaret’s big outdoor yard and came home so happy (and tired!). Margaret kept us updated with lots of adorable photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. As an extra sweet surprise, Riggy even came home with a new toy that she hasn’t put down since. 🐾💖 We can’t recommend Margaret enough — she truly goes above and beyond!”
“Bertha took such wonderful care of my nervous little pup. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby with her. She is very kind and kept my baby as comfortable as possible while I was away. Thank you!”
“My dog, Belle is looking forward to seeing Lisa and staying in her home again. No separation anxiety like the first dog-sitting experiences. Lisa is very caring and responsible lady. I am happy that Belle finds her second home.”
About: With 10 years of professional experience caring for dogs, I provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I began my career as a dog bather in a busy grooming salon before transitioning to a boarding and training facility, where I gained extensive hands-on experience handling dogs with a wide range of temperaments and behaviors. My background includes administering medication, trimming nails, providing daily walks, and ensuring every dog receives the attention, structure, and care they deserve. This experience has given me the skills to confidently handle dogs and recognize their individual needs. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. Your dog will be cared for in a loving home with two experienced dog handlers. While I work part-time during the day, my wife is home and also has professional experience handling dogs, so your pup is rarely ever left alone. Together, we provide plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, potty breaks, walks, and personalized care to help your dog feel safe, comfortable, and right at home throughout their stay. This increases our availability for boarding since there is always supervision. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always a priority. My home features a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy outdoor time under supervision. Inside, the home is equipped with both air conditioning and heating, ensuring your pup stays comfortable year-round, whether it’s a hot summer day or a chilly evening. I strive to provide a clean, safe, and relaxing environment where every dog feels right at home.
“Bianca did a great job watching our dog Greg. The communication was great throughout and there were lots of updates. I’m so glad our pups got along well and Greg was well taken care of.”
“Daria did a fantastic job with lupo! She was very gentle, patient, and understanding. Lupo tends to get a bit nervous with new people/environments but Daria did a great job making him feel comfortable and providing good care. She also is very responsive and communicates in a timely manner. Will for sure book her again!”
“Christian was fantastic! I received daily updates with pictures and videos. I know my dog Bowie was in good hands and I will absolutely be bringing Bowie back again! Thanks Christian!!!”
“Tamar was such a great sitter. She took amazing care of my dog and sent lots of updates during his stay. I’m always nervous about leaving him with a new sitter, but my anxiety melted away quickly. Highly recommend!”
“Greg was amazing. He genuinely loves dogs💕. Was wonderful with our precocious 5 month basset hound. He updated me with pictures and status. I cannot recommend him enough.”
“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“Lizel took great care of Lily when I was out of town. She kept me in the loop with how things were going, and was generally lovely to work with. Would book again!”
“I have had Cathy sit my anxious senior dog many times (as long as 2-weeks) and she has been great! My dog is so comfortable with her and seems to love being with her. Cathy is very attentive and sends updates many times a day. She is very responsive! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Arlo just finished his third stay and he loved it! Hector & Brandon continue to be sweet, true dog loving sitters. They are communicative and hyper vigilant as they take care of your pet, ranging from traveling with Arlo in a car seat, to notifying me of any new itches and scratches and more. He will certainly be back!”
“Alla was very nice with my dog, especially his first time. Was gone for a few days, but I felt very comfortable leaving Henry behind as she provided pictures and kept me up to date, I felt very relaxed”
“Janice took care of our doggie for the weekend and was in constant contact with us during the time we we’re away. We felt comfortable leaving our doggie with her. Her constant love and care is great for doggies!”

“Brigette was so good with the kitties! She played with the kitties a lot and kept our babies happy while we were out of town. She was as great at communicating everyday to update us on them and how they were adjusting, and when we got home, the cats looked happy to see us but also in a great mood! Would definitely book her again in the future!”
“Aksana did a great job looking after my kitties! she was very communicative and followed the directions I gave to a tee! I definitely will be rebooking in the future any time I need a sitter.”
“Might as well also be a goat sitter because she's the GOAT cat sitter. We've used her many times and she's always a rock star. Very thorough and thoughtful messages and tons of photos of the babies. Our one day had a cone this time and she was very good about that.”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for cats. I currently have a cat and have had cats in my home for many years. I understand their needs, personalities, habits, and daily routines. My friends and family often trust me to help care for their cats when they are away. I enjoy feeding, playing with, and spending time with cats. I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.
“My fur babies were very safe with Alicia, everytime I am out of town she always my go to person to look after them. She follows instructions and provide pictures and videos to update me daily on my babies. Giving her 5 star for an excellent service.”
“I found my petsitter!! :) From beginning to end, Lucine did a phenomenal job caring for my 2 kittens. It was my first weekend leaving them with a sitter and a last-minute trip. She eased my mind with her quick responses & adorable photo + video updates after every visit. Thank you, Lucine!”
“Alicia is amazing!! I trust her with my little girl, Darbie and I know she’s in great hands with Alicia. Always leaving detailed info on her visit and the cutest photos!”
“Amazing care from Traci during a weeklong trip with two energetic cats! She went above and beyond to make sure they were happy and played with them during their 1 hour visits. Lots of photos and videos of the cats having a great time, and she enjoyed getting to know them too. Very communicative with questions and updates. We are so lucky to have found her on our first time using Rover! Thank you Traci!!!”
About: Cats are just incredible. I guess you could say I’m pretty obsessed. Currently my two cats are great, however one has some health issues. As a result I have experience administering meds calmly and peacefully. As much as I cherish my own cats, it makes me happy to spend time with others, especially when their humans are gone and they might be feeling lonely.
“Jessica is the best! Very professional, and took good care my baby while I was away for 2 weeks. She made sure to send pics and any little update because she knows I’m anxious leaving my cat for the first time. We absolutely loved her!”
“Sara was a fantastic caregiver for our elderly cat and we would recommend her to anyone! She is extremely communicative, and respectful of our cat's needs. She went above and beyond and asked where a broom & dustpan were while we were away because Becky can be sloppy with her litter. Sara proactively clarified Becky's insulin needs to make sure she would be giving her the right amount amidst some changes in her insulin regimen. We look forward to when we can book Sara again!”
“Fiona was great with our 13 year old cat who’s very cautious with strangers. She has calm and affectionate demeanor which any animal/human would love to be around.”
“Sarah was amazing with our fur babies! We feel so comfortable going on vacation knowing our babies are safe with her! Thank you for your services and flexibility! G and P appreciate you and so do we!!?❤?”
“Booked with Bella a second time! She was familiar with my cat’s care instructions from last time and followed them perfectly. My cat was happy to have someone he’s familiar with come back :)”
“Irina took fantastic care of my cat, James, while I was away! She provided consistent updates and adorable photos while looking after her. James is shy and tends to hide from new people but Irina made her comfy and relaxed. 🩵”

“Thank you so much Albina!! It was very last minute and bullet had a good time. You were very communicative and the drop off and pick up was very quick. If I was in your area, she would be regular there.”
“Jonalyn was fantastic with my dog! She sent so many photos and kept Mocha busy and got her tired, which is hard to do. Mocha is usually nervously reluctant to separate from me, but every time we went to Jonalyn's, she got so excited. Definitely booking again!”
“Isabel took a great care of my dog while we were at the Rose Bowl game. She’s great with communication and was very quick in responding for drop off and pick up. Will definitely use her again next time we visit SoCal.”

About: Hi! Welcome! I have been a cat mom for 16 yrs, but sadly my beloved cat, Mittens passed away in May 2025. I miss him dearly! And I deeply miss having a fur baby in my life! But since I’m not ready to get a new pet, I would like to give my love, attention and experience into taking care of other people’s pets! I am extremely experienced with taking care of cats and I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs before, and now several times professionally on Rover, that it’s made me fall in love with dogs just as as cats! I absolutely love and enjoy taking care of both dogs and cats! And they both have their own wonderful and amazing charms! 😁 I work from home so I am always at home, so it makes it easy to take care of pets and give them all the attention and potty breaks that they need. I am available for boarding or pet daycare at anytime, so please feel free to contact me whenever you would like. I live in a one bedroom apartment that is 1000-1500 sqft and I don’t have a backyard or personal balcony, but live in a very safe residential neighborhood, so walking dogs outside at anytime of the day is completely safe and fine. My living room is a reasonable size (1000 sqft), which is why I only board small to medium sized dogs; however, I work from home, so I’m always able to take the dogs out to get some much needed air, sun and exercise daily, so they don’t get too cooped up or bored indoors. I also always make it a priority to turn the AC and fans on at my place, so they can stay cool and comfortable at all times. Furthermore, I have used the Rover App before to have my own late cat boarded with a pet sitter on here, so I fully understand the comfort and the need for owners to have pet sitters send photos, videos and daily updates of their pets to them, therefore, I always make that a priority and I am more than happy to do that! I firmly believe and take it very seriously that a pet sitter should always respond immediately and be absolutely communicative at all times!
About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.
“My puppy Goose always has such a fun time with Jennifer and her daughter! He always gets so excited whenever we drop him off and he is happy as a clam when we pick him up. We would recommend her to any pet parent!”
“Irina met me right on time for dropoff and pickup, was extremely friendly, and kept me updated with plenty of photos throughout the day. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in excellent hands with her. I would totally leave my dogs with her again!”
“Cecile did an amazing job watching my Dog Samson ! He can be handful sometimes with separation issues, so I appreciate a mindful and caring sitter. When I picked him up he was in great sprints and could tell he had a fun time with Cecile. I would highly recommend her with your cherished pets !”
About: I have taken care of dogs about 4years. I like to watch them to play, and talk to them as communicating. To walk, feed and play with them, let me feel so warm and make my day. I have a big heart to take care of them. I stay home a lot and take care of my dog. I know each pet owners have different time, if our time could match, I would like to help and take care of your pets. I do have a big unfenced yard in front of my apartment. They can run and play inside the area. I also have a corgi girl, I believe she can be their friend. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining a structured schedule. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own.

About: I've been caring for pets for over 20 years, and it's something I truly love.

About: I’ve been dog and cat sitting for ten years because I love animals! I’m very active, love to hike with dogs, and also am creating music when at home which they tend to love if they’re with me :) I am a part time sitter and am available on some holidays which has been helpful for clients in recent years. Pet sitting fits in to an ever changing and flexible schedule. I am currently at a pet friendly and peaceful residence on a quiet street. I also pet sit for neighbors in my immediate neighborhood within a 3 mile radius.
“the absolute best. I felt so comfortable leaving my son with her. She was always sending me photos and updates and you can tell she genuinely cares about animals. Would highly recommend!!”
“Today was the first time my 10 month old pup went to a sitter. Margaret was very sweet and helpful getting Maverick acclimated and warmed up to the other pups she was watching. I will definitely bring him back soon! Thank you for caring for Maverick today!”
About: I grew up in a home with a dog, a cat, birds, fish, and rabbits. Throughout my life, I’ve opened my heart to many a pooch, including a beautiful epileptic Dalmation, a feisty pocket Shih Tzu (that one of my students brought to school in a backpack), an adorably lazy Bijon-Maltese mix who came to stay for a weekend and stayed 10 years -- and most recently a spirited 13 year old Terrier mix that we brought home after his person died unexpectedly. All were loved and doted upon until they crossed the rainbow bridge. The smaller ones vacationed by car, truck, and plane and were with us 24/7. I’ve often cared for my friends' dogs and am known for giving good doggy massages. I’ve also shared my space with an African Sulcata tortoise for the last 17 years. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I own a small business that allows me to come and go easily, allowing for long walks and/or lounging around. I have a fenced yard, leashes, bowls, a medium sized dog crate if necessary, lots of healthy snacks and lots of time for walks and doggie massages. In your home, I will care for your special friend as instructed. If your pooch loves toys, we will play, if snoozing is their favorite thing, I will happily sit nearby and chill too.
“Wow, I can’t say enough great things about Jessica, Zach, and Fang!! My dog was immediately comfortable with them all (even though she can be nervous around men, she loved Zach). She had great play time, walks, and comfy naps. I got cute picture updates throughout the day, and she came back calm and sleepy. Can’t wait to book them again!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my calm, patient approach and my focus on building trust with both pets and owners. I take time to understand each dog’s personality and needs so I can tailor walks and care to what makes them feel safest and happiest. I’m reliable, communicative, and detail-oriented—I follow instructions closely, send consistent updates, and treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is always to make pets feel secure and owners feel completely confident in my care I am currently working a full time job Monday-Friday but I am available evenings during the week and all day on the weekends. Thank you. For dog walking, I focus on safety, consistency, and trust. Before each walk, I make sure the dog’s harness and leash are secure, follow the owner’s preferred routine, and stick to safe walking routes. I pay close attention to the dog’s comfort and body language so they feel calm and confident with me. To build trust with clients, I’m always punctual, respectful of their home, and follow instructions exactly. I send clear updates and photos after each walk so owners know their dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“I've had the privilege of using Ryan's service twice now and I plan to re-use him often. He's been very responsive and has followed directions extremely well. And this is with my topsy turvy schedule and high expectations. I love the sh*t out of my little canine buddy... and yeah... finding new people who are reliable, hopefully honest, and willing to earn trust between three of us is hard and is not a real fun experience. Ryan's been wonderful. Ryan being a part of our atwater village neighbourhood doesn't hurt either. Being close and familiar with streets and animal hospitals in case of emergencies and trails and stuff is so much of a relief. Zero complaints, only kudos, from my mutt. Still early in the relationship, but so far it feels like a better community just having him here. Updates if anything changes. I'm not expecting anything but for the better. cheers!”

“I was in a situation where I had to get a dog walker in less than 24 hours. I have a bull terrier that is reactive. He’s been in privates and group classes, but a stranger coming in the home will definitely freak him out. I was very nervous but I had no choice. Yana was amazing with him. I had him behind the baby gate and went off as soon as she walked him. She was able to calm him down and was success in taking him out. She sent me lovely pictures of him and he looked so happy. Thank you Yana for helping me out, especially during this stressful situation.”
“Sean is great with our pup!! Always on time and responsive and has made her feel comfortable walking with someone else (even with her separation anxiety). Great job!!”
“Javier rules. He’s walked my dog a ton and always does a great job. Good communication and very reliable (especially with my sporadic walking requests). Sends great pics and walk cards too!”
“Isabel is excellent! She’s punctual, is a great communicator, and is very natural with dogs. She observed a lot of things about my dogs temperament that I really appreciated . She has also done dog sitting in my home and is very trustworthy.”
About: I love all animals and I have experience in lots of different animal care, including aquatics and exotics. I myself have two cats and a dog, and I have helped out folks with many different species, including husbandry. I’m so excited to meet your pet! Every morning my cat kids wake me up around 5:30/6am. The cats and I eat our breakfast together, Babygirl gets her meds, and then just spend the rest of the morning lounging and relaxing. When the senior dog wakes up, he gets his meds and breakfast and then it’s walk time!! Lunch time the cats each get a little churu treaty, and they spend some time playing before afternoon naps. They basically bounce back and forth from silly time to deep sleep for the rest of the day, then it’s dinner time, walkys for Kenji the dog and more playtime, then bed. Pets aren’t “spoiled,” they are cherished. Taking care of beautiful creatures that love us and make us their whole world is a gift. They deserve kindness, compassion, and respect. I love all animals as an extension of the love I hold for my own, and I can’t wait to meet yours and give them love and care.

About: With years of dedicated pet care experience, I've looked after a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to birds and rabbits. My passion for pets is evident in the attention and love I provide, making sure each one is healthy and content. While I don't have pets presently, my routine eagerly anticipates their presence. I dedicate time each day to care, ensuring they're happy, active, and loved when they come my way. In both my home and my clients' homes, I make sure that safety, trust, and a pet-friendly environment are top priorities. For dogs, this includes secure fencing, leash-trained walks, and supervised playtime. Cats receive cozy, quiet spaces for relaxation and play. I adhere to feeding schedules, administer medication when necessary, and provide ample cuddles and exercise. It's all about making each pet feel comfortable and loved.

About: Hi ! My name is Alicia. I grew up with dogs my entire life and I’ve had my cat for over 12 years, so caring for animals has always been natural to me. Animals have always been a big part of my day-to-day life. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes, ages, and personalities. I understand their needs, their personalities, and how to adapt to each one, whether they’re shy, energetic, senior, or a bit anxious. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets of all sizes and ages. I’m gentle, patient, active, caring, and very attentive. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, and ability to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. I’m very confident with anxious pets, routine-based pets, and animals who need extra time to warm up. I can follow feeding schedules, basic training routines, and provide medication if needed. I treat every pet as if they were my own, with lots of love, structure, and reassurance. I’m available every day and very flexible with timing. Your pet will always receive my full attention : walks, playtime, cuddles, feeding, and regular photo/video updates. My goal : give you complete peace of mind while you’re away ❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I’m available 7 days a week, mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I have a very flexible schedule, which means I can accommodate last-minute bookings, longer visits, and owners with irregular work hours. Walks and drop-in visits are part of my everyday life, spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy. I live in an apartment in Glendale (no backyard), so all services I provide are done at the owner’s home or outside during walks. I always prioritize safety : I’m attentive during walks, avoid unsafe areas, monitor weather conditions (especially heat), and stay alert around traffic and other dogs. Inside the home, I keep the environment calm and follow the pet’s established routine. I lock doors securely, check gates, make sure food and treats are stored properly, and follow any instructions you provide. I communicate clearly, send updates, and make sure you always know how your pet is doing.
About: I’ve been fortunate to grow up with animals most of my life and lucky enough to continue having little fur companions in the home through roommates. I’m proud to say I’m my friend’s go to for pet sitting (+ house sitting) while they’re away in long trips as I love to play, cuddle, and take care of their little ones as if they were my own. I enjoy taking my family’s dogs for long walks whenever I visit and cuddling with the cat if she’s gracious enough to give me attention. I’d love to meet your pet and thanks in advance! 💗 I’m generally free before 2 pm and after 6 pm with open availability on the weekends though my schedule will vary on a weekly basis and can be pretty flexible! It’s not always easy for pets to be with a stranger but with trust, respect, and patience I hope to create a safe atmosphere. I’d love to implement the methods that have already been established by the pet owner to create a familiar environment and easy transition for your pet.
About: I have taken care of dogs about 4years. I like to watch them to play, and talk to them as communicating. To walk, feed and play with them, let me feel so warm and make my day. I have a big heart to take care of them. I stay home a lot and take care of my dog. I know each pet owners have different time, if our time could match, I would like to help and take care of your pets. I do have a big unfenced yard in front of my apartment. They can run and play inside the area. I also have a corgi girl, I believe she can be their friend. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and maintaining a structured schedule. I have a flexible work schedule, which allows me to provide walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and attentive care throughout the day. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy, and I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I care for pets by making sure they are safe, comfortable, and happy. In my home, I provide fresh water, feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I stay home often, so pets are well supervised. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow the owner's instructions carefully and keep their regular routine. I treat every pet with love, patience, and care, just like they are my own.

“Margaret is absolutely wonderful! Our pup Riggy had the best time with her — she loved playing in Margaret’s big outdoor yard and came home so happy (and tired!). Margaret kept us updated with lots of adorable photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. As an extra sweet surprise, Riggy even came home with a new toy that she hasn’t put down since. 🐾💖 We can’t recommend Margaret enough — she truly goes above and beyond!”
“My dog, Belle is looking forward to seeing Lisa and staying in her home again. No separation anxiety like the first dog-sitting experiences. Lisa is very caring and responsible lady. I am happy that Belle finds her second home.”
“Daria did a fantastic job with lupo! She was very gentle, patient, and understanding. Lupo tends to get a bit nervous with new people/environments but Daria did a great job making him feel comfortable and providing good care. She also is very responsive and communicates in a timely manner. Will for sure book her again!”
“Greg was amazing. He genuinely loves dogs💕. Was wonderful with our precocious 5 month basset hound. He updated me with pictures and status. I cannot recommend him enough.”
“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“Lizel took great care of Lily when I was out of town. She kept me in the loop with how things were going, and was generally lovely to work with. Would book again!”
“I have had Cathy sit my anxious senior dog many times (as long as 2-weeks) and she has been great! My dog is so comfortable with her and seems to love being with her. Cathy is very attentive and sends updates many times a day. She is very responsive! I would recommend her to anyone!”
“Conner is great! Went out of town for five days and was not worried about Larry once. He was communicative, took Larry on some awesome hikes, and sent photos everyday. The entire process was stress-free! I would recommend him to anyone looking for boarding services!”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful with Arlo! She took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the stay, she was super communicative and regularly sent photos so I always knew how he was doing. It was clear she genuinely spent quality time with him — including taking him out on runs, which he loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be booking with Sydney again!”
“We received many pictures and videos of our pups during our short trip, and they seemed to be in great spirits when picking them up! Thanks for taking care of our pups!”
“Cynthia is amazing! Mushu has separation anxiety so I was a bit worried about leaving him with a sitter for the first time - especially for a few days! But Cynthia made him feel right at home the first night! She keeps us updated with daily photos of him looking so cozy that it helps me worry less while we’re away from him. I’d give her 10/5 stars if I could!”
“Tetsu was extremely communicative the whole time Haruki stayed with him. He took care of Haruki like his own and took him on so many walks every day! He shared videos and pictures everyday to update me as well. I really appreciate him giving my dog a bone on Christmas as well! Overall, Tetsu is so amazing!!”
“Heather was fantastic. Rio who is high energy was very happy. I can tell from the pictures and messages we received from Heather regularly. Rio went on long hikes and park walks and felt just at home with Heather and Billie Jean. Thank you Heather!”
“Marina is very kind and a great communicator. My doggo had the best time with her new family for the day ❤️ Thanks for taking good care of Coco and for your flexibility.”
“I can not say enough WONDERFUL things about Jack !! My 11 year old yorkie Kobe ABSOLUTELY LOVED Jack from the second he saw him. Jumped right into his arms ! I do not have children yet so Kobe runs our house and daily life which always makes me overly cautious when finding a sitter lol. I just moved to LA and am SO thankful we found Jack . He kept us updated with photos and texts . He let our spoiled one sleep in the bed with him too . Kobe can't wait to do another stay with Jack !”
“Ece was positive, enthusiastic, and gave my dog, Raymond the attention he needs. She was great at keeping in touch during a long dog sit and responsive to all my concerns.”
“Julie and Jonathan were amazing! They kept me update at all times and sent me lots of photos. Duke had a great time with them.. you can tell just by looking at the photos that he looked really happy. Also, they live close to the airport, which is very convenient.”
