“Sheila really is the best! She’s the only person I’d trust our pup Billy with for a whole month- he came back happier than ever and she gave constant updates and photos to let us know how he was doing, even during NYE fireworks. I would highly recommend her to anyone I know.”
“Molly was amazing! We’ve had her watch our Momo a few times now, and each time it looked like Momo was having so much fun! Molly consistently provided us with updates and photos multiple times each day and was overall very attentive to our little one. 5 stars! Definitely a recommend!”
“I left my dog Lulu with Laura for the weekend and she took great care of her! She was also very flexible and let us extend the stay for 1 night. I highly recommend Laura!”
“brittany took excellent care of our two dogs! she was very thoughtful in her messages and was really responsive. we greatly appreciated all the photos and the attentive care she took for each dog’s needs. will definitely be using brittany again!”
“Salud has taken great care of my dog, Shyla, twice while I’ve been out of town. Shyla is happy staying with Salud and we will continue to reach out to her for future dog sitting needs!”
“I already rebooked with Zuleyma because that's how amazing she was with my tripod Charlotte. She was great about sending updates, whether they were in photo or message form, I was always in the loop. I feel BEYOND comfortable with her taking care of my girl while I'm traveling, and I am so thankful to have connected with her. As dog parents we know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your baby while we are away, and Zuleyma is exactly what I've been looking for. Charlotte absolutely adores her!!! Normally after I pick Charlotte up from being away even for a few hours, she cries with excitement in the car ride home. Not a peep from Charlotte after five days apart, that's when I knew she had the best time! THANK YOU SO SO MUCH ZULEYMA! I can't wait for Charlotte to continue to be in your care when I'm away!!!”
“Jianing takes excellent care of my pup and always sends cute pictures! She is very communicative and a great sitter and I will continue to board with her whenever possible.”
“Donghae was the best sitter experience we’ve had on this app. Our Australian Shepherd got a new friend, and we have peace of mind with dozens of images and detailed daily write-ups when we leave her with him. Absolutely recommend!”
“Our dog Buster had a great time at Lacey’s. He immediately connected with her and her adorable Noosha (and even Hillary the cat!). Both Buster and I immediately felt a sense of safety and calm in her space. Looking forward to the next time!”
“Shontel continues to go above and beyond with each stay. Our dog is usually anxious when getting dropped off and Shontel brushed her, gave her treats, and got over cozy. She sent videos of them playing together and is always super responsive. After our stay this time, she even sent a document of all the treats / tools she used with Jazz. She’s top tier!! Can’t wait to book again and again whenever we need to leave town. Thanks Shontel!! You’re truly 1 of 1. 💓”
“We rescued our little pup about nine months ago and she has never had a night away from us. We wanted Jess and Max for her first night away, and it went beautifully. Our puppy is so happy and comfortable with them. They gave us constant updates, and let us know how she was doing. We can now comfortably plan more nights away because we know that our little fur baby is so happy with Jess and Max.”
“Mollie is the best! Excellent communication, super flexible, sends great pics and — most importantly — takes such good care of Harley. Mollie is a true animal lover and I’d recommend her to anyone who’s looking for an excellent pet-sitter.”
“Deanna was phenomenal! She helped me when I was in a pickle and needed a dog sitter on very short notice. Not only was she willing, she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and communicated regularly with updates throughout my dog’s stay. I picked up a very happy pup who’s acting like his usual self. I can’t thank Deanna enough!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, including many many guests, and I treat every animal in my house like family. I know that every guest needs something different and I put real effort into making sure they are comfortable and HAPPY. I do not believe in negative reinforcement, and I focus on building trust through patience. I know that settling into a new home can be overwhelming for some pups. To make this easy, my house is set up to cater to as many different needs as possible. I have a dedicated room (my gym) for dogs that need to be alone and watch Bluey on the TV in there, but I prefer to make my guests comfortable to lounge on the many dog beds I have scattered around the house. Also, my home features solid flooring, so I have 0 issue with catering to nerves while your fur baby is settling in. I do my best to make them comfortable while they are in a temporary new pack. I also have crates available if your dog finds comfort in that. Their choice. But otherwise, they have the run of the place just like any loved family animal should. I have a secure fenced yard and I never leave my guests outside even for a short time, and then they are back inside with me. I also play, however much your fur baby wants to. Fetch, soccer, whatever makes them happy. This is the best part of this job. My goal is to provide a calm, affectionate environment where your dog feels safe, understood, and truly at home while you’re away. I work as a consultant with a flexible schedule, which means I am home and available for my guests throughout the day. My routine is built around the dogs—we do morning yard time, afternoon play sessions (soccer and fetch are favorites), and plenty of lounging in between. Because I’m based at home, I can provide the consistent supervision and companionship that helps dogs feel secure when they are in a new space without their humans. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully secured, fenced yard for outdoor play, but I never leave guests unattended outside; we go out together and come back in together. Inside, my home is designed for dogs, featuring solid flooring for easy cleanup and a dedicated room with Bluey on TV for pups who need a break. Whether your dog prefers to snuggle on one of the many beds scattered around or on the couch or in an open crate, I happily accommodate their needs.
“This is my 2nd booking. My dog absolutely loves and gets excited when he see’s Shardae. I have found his forever sitter. He is well taken care of and happy when he comes home! I appreciate you!”
About: Hi! I'm Kelly. I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, ever since my family adopted our first dog when I was 5 years old. Over the years, I've shared my life with all kinds of dogs, from my tiny Miniature Yorkie to my big 100-pound Shepherd mix. I've fostered dogs, dog-sat for friends and family, and spent countless hours learning about positive reinforcement training through private lessons and hands-on experience. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog behind when you travel because I've been there myself. Whenever I boarded my own dogs, all I wanted was to know they were safe, happy, loved, and getting plenty of attention. That's exactly the kind of experience I hope to give both you and your pup. My home is fully fenced with a large front yard and backyard where dogs can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sunshine. I even built a dedicated potty area for my own dogs, which many visiting pups quickly figure out. My dogs passed away a few years ago, and I genuinely miss having dogs around the house. I work from home as a freelance designer, so I'm home throughout the day and enjoy having a furry coworker by my side. Whether your dog loves walks, fetch, belly rubs, naps on the couch, or simply being near people, they'll get plenty of attention and companionship while they're here. I also have an almost 6-year-old daughter who has grown up around dogs her entire life. She's gentle, respectful, and absolutely adores them. One of her favorite things to do is sit beside them and read stories. Because our home includes a young child, I can only host dogs that are comfortable around children, and all interactions are always supervised by me. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I'm currently freelancing as a designer, so I spend most of my day at home. After I drop my daughter off at school each morning, I'm back home for the day, which means your pup won't be sitting around waiting for someone to come home from work. Whether we're hanging out in the yard, going for a walk, playing fetch, or just keeping each other company while I work, I genuinely love having dogs around and spending time with them. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully fenced with a large front yard and backyard, and all outdoor time is supervised. Dogs are never left outside unattended and will always have access to a clean, comfortable indoor space to relax and feel at home. Before each stay, I like to learn about your dog's routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide care that's as close to home as possible. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, reinforcing training, or making time for extra walks and play, I'm happy to accommodate. As a lifelong dog owner with experience fostering, dog sitting, and positive reinforcement training, I understand that every dog is different. My goal is to create a calm, safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. *Since our home includes a 6-year-old, I can only accommodate dogs that are friendly and comfortable around children.

“Guadalupe was a reliable, punctual, attentive, and altogether great pet sitter to our kitty! Our cat had recently been spayed and needed medication applied to her incision site, which Guadalupe diligently did each day. Upon our request, Guadalupe even turned off some of our outdoor lights when it was raining. 5/5 stars! We would highly recommend Guadalupe for all of your pet sitting needs!”
“Rachel was an amazing sitter for Maui. She took such good care of her and gave her plenty of cuddles and play time. Maui was very welcoming to Rachel! I loved the detailed report cards and pictures she sent me. Would love to have Rachel care for Maui again, thank you!”
“Ashley is the best! She came right over to make a backup litter box for my baby when his automatic box malfunctioned. She was so gentle with him and cuddled him to comfort him on her drop in visit. Do not hesitate to book her!”
“Liz was a great sitter for us and took wonderful care of Rocky and Her Babes while we were away. She was thoughtful, communicated any needs and gave them plenty of play time. She knew exactly how to handle the little menaces. 🖤”
“Anna was wonderful and extremely communicative taking care of our two cats while we were away. She provided so much piece of mind. Would absolutely recommend.”
About: Hello! I recently graduated from USC, but my deep love for felines comes from my roots back in North Carolina, where I grew up caring for our family's two cats. Spending countless hours on farms and riding horses professionally for a couple of years taught me immense patience and how to maintain a calm, grounded energy. Cats are incredibly intuitive, and I have found that this gentle, steady approach is exactly what helps shy, anxious, or older kitties feel safe and comfortable. What truly sets me apart right now is the peaceful environment and undivided attention I can offer. Because I don’t currently have any pets of my own here in Los Angeles, my space is a quiet, stress-free haven—an ideal setup for cats who are easily overwhelmed by other animals or simply prefer to be the absolute center of attention. Whether your cat loves energetic playtime with a laser pointer, needs a cozy lap to curl up on, or just wants a quiet, respectful presence in the room, I am highly adaptable. I promise to treat every kitty with the exact same warmth, vigilance, and love that I give my own family pets.
About: I have always had love and compassion for other animals. My experience with dog-sitting and dog walking expands over 3 years. Thank you for considering me as your future pet-caregiver. Have a beautiful day. Kind regards, Camryn I have open availability during the weekend and am available during the week specific time-frames. Dog feeding (and providing water), walking and petting are included with every visit. ‘Petting’ your pet is one of my favorite parts of the job! I am unable to host overnight/day visits. I care for my pet and their environment by keeping the space tidy and safe from any sharp or dangerous objects. I work to ensure that the pet feels comfortable within their social surroundings.
About: Custom Care: I am a quick learner and will strictly follow your pet's "operating manual"—from their favorite scratches to their specific feeding times. To ensure your "fur baby" has a 5-star stay, please share: Unique Quirks: Do they have a "guilty pleasure" treat or a specific spot they like to be brushed? Medical/Dietary: Any allergies or specialized food needs? (Please provide all necessary provisions and specialized care items).
“Su is very friendly and professional. You can tell she really enjoys spending time with pets and makes sure they are having fun. Would definitely use her again for future care for my cat!”
About: Hello Cat Parents, As lifelong animal lovers, Joel and I understand the special care and attention that our feline friends need. Recently, we welcomed our own cat, Roux, into our family, along with our dogs, YoYo, Jaxon, and Lexi. With years of experience caring for both cats and dogs, I’ve learned how to create a comfortable, enriching environment that meets cats on their terms. From soothing routines to playtime, we know the ins and outs of keeping cats happy, calm, and well-fed. My years volunteering at an animal shelter taught me the importance of understanding each pet’s unique personality, and I bring that same approach to every cat in my care. We can’t wait to meet your feline family members and provide them with the love and attention they deserve.
“Gassia is such an amazing person with a huge heart for animals. She made sure my kitties were well taken care of during my holiday and was very punctual with sending photos and updates during each visit. She also made sure my kitties had fun and were entertained! Will definitely be my go-to sitter anytime my boyfriend and I will be out of town! ❤️👍”
About: I’ve had a genuine love and patience for animals since I was very young. Throughout my lifetime, I’ve had 3 dogs, 2 turtles, a foster cat and a hummingbird. I am currently working full time from home but I have much flexibility to drop in to play, walk, and give cuddles if need be. I accommodate personally by each pet and pet patents preference. I am very flexible with requests to make everyone as safe and comfortable as possible!
“This is our second time having Jacqueline check-in on our cat while we were on vacation, and she was great as usual! She will be our first choice next time as well!”
“jnai was so considerate and caring when she was watching over my cat! despite the time difference, she made it a point to send me frequent updates/pics and asked questions that showed she really cared about my cat’s health and well-being! i highly recommend jnai to any cat owners (especially ones with shy cats!)”
About: I’m a lifelong cat lover and 4‑cat mom offering cat‑only care across West and Central LA, from Mid‑City and Culver City to the beach neighborhoods. I share my home with three tabbies and a half‑Persian, so I’m very comfortable with big personalities, from confident “alphas” to anxious or shy kitties who need extra patience and a gentle approach. I have experience giving oral medications (like daily pills for asthma), keeping litter areas very clean, and watching for subtle changes in appetite, behavior, or breathing. During each visit, I handle feeding, fresh water, thorough litter scooping, playtime or quiet company (depending on your cat’s mood), brushing, treats if allowed, and basic home care like plants, mail, and lights. I’m currently available most weekdays and can do early‑morning weekend visits with advance notice, and I always send photo updates so you can relax while you’re away. I’m clean, detail‑oriented, and a strong communicator, and I’ll treat your cats—and your home—with the same care and respect I expect for my own fur family.
“This week is the 2nd time I've booked Odalis to look after my 3 cats. I was gone 4 days in another state. Odalis sent me updates every time she came to feed and scoop for my cats, and she did a great job. I have nothing but praise for Odalis. Next time I need to leave town, I hope she is available.”

As a dog owner, I understand the need for constant reassurance and communication. I do whatever it takes to ensure that everyone is comfortable.
“Bernice was great! 5/5 stars! As a first-time user of a pet sitter, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. She was highly professional, communicative, and incredibly reliable. My dog is medium-sized and has a ton of energy, but she handled him perfectly and sent updates and photos with every visit. I felt so comfortable knowing he was in great hands. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my fur baby!”

About: I’ve had dogs and cats for the past 25 years of my own. I also have past experiences working at veterinary clinic where I’ve learned to handle pets and care for sick dogs.

About: Hello! I recently graduated from USC, but my deep love for animals comes from my roots back in North Carolina. I grew up surrounded by our family's two dogs and two cats (Snickerdoodle, Prince Louis, Georgia, and Loki), spent countless hours on farms, and even rode horses professionally for a couple of years! Working with horses taught me patience, adaptability, and how to maintain a calm, grounded energy, skills that translate perfectly to pet care, whether I'm comforting a shy cat or handling a strong, energetic dog (I also recently helped rescue a German Shepherd!). What truly sets me apart as a sitter right now is the undivided attention I can offer. Because I don't currently have any pets of my own here in Los Angeles, my space is a quiet, stress-free haven where your furry best friend gets to be the absolute center of attention. I have hands-on experience with dog walking, day-sitting, and extended care, including recently boarding a friend’s dog for two weeks while at school. Whether your pet needs a cozy couch to snuggle on, a patient friend to help them feel safe, or a secure ride in my Crosstrek for a local adventure, I promise to love and care for them exactly like they are my own family! As a recent graduate enjoying my last open summer, I currently have a tremendous amount of free time! Because I am primarily taking on flexible, gig-based work right now, my schedule is incredibly adaptable to whatever your pet needs. I also have my own car, which makes incorporating pet care into my routine incredibly seamless. As I continue exploring and making Los Angeles my permanent home, I absolutely love loading up my Crosstrek and taking pets on safe, local adventures. Whether your dog is the type who loves discovering new parks and trails with an eager co-pilot, or your pet just needs a reliable sitter with transportation for midday drop-ins and cuddles, I can easily build my day around them. Pet care isn't something I have to squeeze into a busy workday, right now, it gets my full attention! Whether I am hosting your best friend or staying at your place, my absolute priority is maintaining your pet's normal routine so they feel safe, secure, and loved. In my home: Because my space is currently pet-free, your dog or cat will enjoy a calm, quiet environment where they get to be the absolute center of attention. I keep a tidy, hazard-free apartment with plenty of comfortable spots for cozy naps. With my highly flexible summer schedule, they won’t be left alone for long stretches. Depending on their energy levels, we can spend the day relaxing inside, or I can safely load them up in my Crosstrek for a trip to a local park if they love car rides and exploring! In your home: I treat my clients' spaces with the utmost respect and pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it. I know that having a new person in the house can be an adjustment for some animals, so I lean on my equestrian background to bring a quiet, grounded energy that helps them relax on their own terms. I am meticulous about following your specific instructions for feeding, medications, and house boundaries. No matter where I am caring for your pet, I will make sure they get plenty of affection, dedicated playtime, and consistent photo updates so you have total peace of mind while you are away.
“Kat took great care of Yogurt. Her home is clean and well-maintained. She responded to messages promptly and sent many photos of Yogurt. Her dog, Walley, also got along well with Yogurt. I would definitely choose Kat again next time.”

“Yvette was absolutely amazing with Bruce Lee and gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She was incredibly accommodating, quick to respond, and consistently kept me updated with daily pictures and messages. You can immediately tell how much she genuinely loves and cares for dogs. One of my favorite parts was seeing how well Bruce bonded with her sweet dog, Roco. The two of them became best friends so quickly, and it made me so happy seeing them play together, relax side by side, and go on walks together. Yvette also gave Bruce lots of love and attention, including belly rubs and plenty of affection, which made him feel completely at home. I truly could not have asked for a better dog sitter. Every picture she sent showed Bruce looking happy, comfortable, and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend Yvette to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, communicative, and attentive with their pets. Bruce already misses his new best friend Roco!”

I ensure maintaining your pet's comfort and routine. I prioritize safety and follow your established training commands to ensure consistency. I’m experienced in adapting to different energy levels. Whether that means high energy play and long walks or providing a calm, quiet environment. I also take pride in learning each dog's unique quirks, ensuring they feel understood and loved while you're away. I always appreciate when my dog sitters send pictures of my dogs and will prioritize doing the same for you!
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I’ve taken care of them since I was 8. Ranging from all sizes. Family and friends have trusted me to care for their pets. Wether, that is to feed, walk, bathe, or just spend time with their pet. I’m currently working a home job, so that means I have plenty time to care for your pet anytime. I can work any day of the week. At my home I can provide a backyard for your fur baby to run around. I will also take him or her on walks at the times you provide. I have plenty of time to play, walk, and feed them. At my clients house I can provide the service . I can also provide bathing at your house. A few months ago I lived with two dogs. One of them passed away from old age and the other dog moved out with a family member. Currently, I have no pet’s living with me but I always love being around them.
About: I’ve had a genuine love and patience for animals since I was very young. Throughout my lifetime, I’ve had 3 dogs, 2 turtles, a foster cat and a hummingbird. I am currently working full time from home but I have much flexibility to drop in to play, walk, and give cuddles if need be. I accommodate personally by each pet and pet patents preference. I am very flexible with requests to make everyone as safe and comfortable as possible!
“Ashley gave my dogs (who are large) great and consistent care. As we returned from our trip our pets for happy and well. Ashley provided updates and reached out if anything important came up. We appreciate her so much!!! You’ll want to book her for any pet support needs.”
About: Hello! I recently graduated from USC, but my deep love for animals comes from my roots back in North Carolina. I grew up surrounded by our family's two dogs and two cats (Snickerdoodle, Prince Louis, Georgia, and Loki), spent countless hours on farms, and even rode horses professionally for a couple of years! Working with horses taught me patience, adaptability, and how to maintain a calm, grounded energy, skills that translate perfectly to pet care, whether I'm comforting a shy cat or handling a strong, energetic dog (I also recently helped rescue a German Shepherd!). What truly sets me apart as a sitter right now is the undivided attention I can offer. Because I don't currently have any pets of my own here in Los Angeles, my space is a quiet, stress-free haven where your furry best friend gets to be the absolute center of attention. I have hands-on experience with dog walking, day-sitting, and extended care, including recently boarding a friend’s dog for two weeks while at school. Whether your pet needs a cozy couch to snuggle on, a patient friend to help them feel safe, or a secure ride in my Crosstrek for a local adventure, I promise to love and care for them exactly like they are my own family! As a recent graduate enjoying my last open summer, I currently have a tremendous amount of free time! Because I am primarily taking on flexible, gig-based work right now, my schedule is incredibly adaptable to whatever your pet needs. I also have my own car, which makes incorporating pet care into my routine incredibly seamless. As I continue exploring and making Los Angeles my permanent home, I absolutely love loading up my Crosstrek and taking pets on safe, local adventures. Whether your dog is the type who loves discovering new parks and trails with an eager co-pilot, or your pet just needs a reliable sitter with transportation for midday drop-ins and cuddles, I can easily build my day around them. Pet care isn't something I have to squeeze into a busy workday, right now, it gets my full attention! Whether I am hosting your best friend or staying at your place, my absolute priority is maintaining your pet's normal routine so they feel safe, secure, and loved. In my home: Because my space is currently pet-free, your dog or cat will enjoy a calm, quiet environment where they get to be the absolute center of attention. I keep a tidy, hazard-free apartment with plenty of comfortable spots for cozy naps. With my highly flexible summer schedule, they won’t be left alone for long stretches. Depending on their energy levels, we can spend the day relaxing inside, or I can safely load them up in my Crosstrek for a trip to a local park if they love car rides and exploring! In your home: I treat my clients' spaces with the utmost respect and pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it. I know that having a new person in the house can be an adjustment for some animals, so I lean on my equestrian background to bring a quiet, grounded energy that helps them relax on their own terms. I am meticulous about following your specific instructions for feeding, medications, and house boundaries. No matter where I am caring for your pet, I will make sure they get plenty of affection, dedicated playtime, and consistent photo updates so you have total peace of mind while you are away.
About: Being around dogs always makes me happy. I like spending time outside with them! Having owned three dogs myself, I am aware of their potential needs and would be more than pleased to meet the needs of the dog I’m more then happy to start in the morning up u till 2PM on weekdays! But on the weekends I can extend time if needed! I have a back yard with a good amount of space so your dogs can run around and have a nice shaded area as well!
“Thank You Anna! My large dog loved her long walking adventures with you! Anna did a great job. She’s on time, flexible, fast at responding back with any questions, and takes great pictures. She’s very responsible and always made sure that the house was locked up and my dog was well taken care of even when my dog was sick. Highly recommend and would love to book again!”
About: I had my precious girl for almost 10 years before she passed suddenly. I adore kids and puppies and kittens alike! Happy with larger and older dogs and cats. Studying full time for law exam in England so this is supplemental but I take it very seriously as if it were my only income! Make sure they are comfortable, give them space if needed, let them take it on their own time but also provide structure and support while their parents are away!
About: I have two dogs myself a husky and a terrier mix, whenever my family members would go out they would leave their pets with me cause of how responsible and caring I am with mine Well I am currently unemployed and was looking forward to take this as a full time to play with pups & cats and decided to try something new. I have a fenced yard and two pups to keep your fur baby company, I am also very attentive about my pets so of course your fur baby will be in good hands.
About: I have been a dog-friend all my life. I have been a pet sitter for many years, both in Portland and Los Angeles. I’ve had dogs most of my adult life. An Australian shepherd (Ghost), a Kelpie (Freyja), and currently a Boxer/Bullie (Princess Leia), and a Staffie (Kylo Ren). While I am not a professional trainer, I have personally trained all of my doggies who all became calm, well-behaved kiddos. Kylo is still in training, as he is newly adopted and just over a year old. My work schedule is flexible, and can mostly be done remotely. I can dedicate much time to the care and/or training of your kiddo. My doggos eat twice daily with at least three trips outside. Kylo is still working on his bravery skills for walks. I am happy to adhere to your preferred schedule for your kiddo(s).
About: Hello, I would love to take care of your pet. I have been a pet owner for 20+ years. I have a handsome cat, Lucas, that is 8 years old. My chow-mix, Osa, passed of old age after 15 years of caring for her. I sell insurance from home and on slow seasons I drive for Lyft. I am open to coming to you, or you to me. I do not have any allergies but have taken care of dogs with sensitivities. If coming to my home for sitting I ask that your pet be cat friendly. I live twenty minutes from the twenty-four hour animal hospital. I am also a fluent Spanish speaker and do not have any children at home! 🐾 xoxo We can work around a specific schedule or take it day by day! I am free most days if you reserve time with me, I will most likely have a 18+ hours/day dedicated to spending with your pet. Usually when I care for your pet I like to take them to places I wouldn’t normally find myself now a days. The pet friendly parks, beach, and with my family and friends!
About: I’ve cared for family and friends’ pets for years, loving them like my own. I’ve welcomed many animals into my life and even helped find safe, happy homes for those in need. “I provide reliable, loving care with daily photo updates and flexible scheduling. I’m active, patient, and experienced with energetic and senior dogs. Your dog will get safe walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I have plenty of time, patience, and love to give to your fur baby and the attention they deserve and need having a flexible job means I have more than enough time to make time I can care for your pet exactly how you prefer. As someone who had a pet , I understand how stressful it can be to trust someone with your baby — I’m very cautious and protective with my own pets, so yours will be treated the same way.

“brittany took excellent care of our two dogs! she was very thoughtful in her messages and was really responsive. we greatly appreciated all the photos and the attentive care she took for each dog’s needs. will definitely be using brittany again!”
“Donghae was the best sitter experience we’ve had on this app. Our Australian Shepherd got a new friend, and we have peace of mind with dozens of images and detailed daily write-ups when we leave her with him. Absolutely recommend!”
“Our dog Buster had a great time at Lacey’s. He immediately connected with her and her adorable Noosha (and even Hillary the cat!). Both Buster and I immediately felt a sense of safety and calm in her space. Looking forward to the next time!”
“Shontel continues to go above and beyond with each stay. Our dog is usually anxious when getting dropped off and Shontel brushed her, gave her treats, and got over cozy. She sent videos of them playing together and is always super responsive. After our stay this time, she even sent a document of all the treats / tools she used with Jazz. She’s top tier!! Can’t wait to book again and again whenever we need to leave town. Thanks Shontel!! You’re truly 1 of 1. 💓”
“Mollie is the best! Excellent communication, super flexible, sends great pics and — most importantly — takes such good care of Harley. Mollie is a true animal lover and I’d recommend her to anyone who’s looking for an excellent pet-sitter.”
“Deanna was phenomenal! She helped me when I was in a pickle and needed a dog sitter on very short notice. Not only was she willing, she was incredibly accommodating, kind, and communicated regularly with updates throughout my dog’s stay. I picked up a very happy pup who’s acting like his usual self. I can’t thank Deanna enough!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, including many many guests, and I treat every animal in my house like family. I know that every guest needs something different and I put real effort into making sure they are comfortable and HAPPY. I do not believe in negative reinforcement, and I focus on building trust through patience. I know that settling into a new home can be overwhelming for some pups. To make this easy, my house is set up to cater to as many different needs as possible. I have a dedicated room (my gym) for dogs that need to be alone and watch Bluey on the TV in there, but I prefer to make my guests comfortable to lounge on the many dog beds I have scattered around the house. Also, my home features solid flooring, so I have 0 issue with catering to nerves while your fur baby is settling in. I do my best to make them comfortable while they are in a temporary new pack. I also have crates available if your dog finds comfort in that. Their choice. But otherwise, they have the run of the place just like any loved family animal should. I have a secure fenced yard and I never leave my guests outside even for a short time, and then they are back inside with me. I also play, however much your fur baby wants to. Fetch, soccer, whatever makes them happy. This is the best part of this job. My goal is to provide a calm, affectionate environment where your dog feels safe, understood, and truly at home while you’re away. I work as a consultant with a flexible schedule, which means I am home and available for my guests throughout the day. My routine is built around the dogs—we do morning yard time, afternoon play sessions (soccer and fetch are favorites), and plenty of lounging in between. Because I’m based at home, I can provide the consistent supervision and companionship that helps dogs feel secure when they are in a new space without their humans. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully secured, fenced yard for outdoor play, but I never leave guests unattended outside; we go out together and come back in together. Inside, my home is designed for dogs, featuring solid flooring for easy cleanup and a dedicated room with Bluey on TV for pups who need a break. Whether your dog prefers to snuggle on one of the many beds scattered around or on the couch or in an open crate, I happily accommodate their needs.
“This is my 2nd booking. My dog absolutely loves and gets excited when he see’s Shardae. I have found his forever sitter. He is well taken care of and happy when he comes home! I appreciate you!”
About: Hi! I'm Kelly. I've had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember, ever since my family adopted our first dog when I was 5 years old. Over the years, I've shared my life with all kinds of dogs, from my tiny Miniature Yorkie to my big 100-pound Shepherd mix. I've fostered dogs, dog-sat for friends and family, and spent countless hours learning about positive reinforcement training through private lessons and hands-on experience. I know how hard it can be to leave your dog behind when you travel because I've been there myself. Whenever I boarded my own dogs, all I wanted was to know they were safe, happy, loved, and getting plenty of attention. That's exactly the kind of experience I hope to give both you and your pup. My home is fully fenced with a large front yard and backyard where dogs can run, play, explore, or simply relax in the sunshine. I even built a dedicated potty area for my own dogs, which many visiting pups quickly figure out. My dogs passed away a few years ago, and I genuinely miss having dogs around the house. I work from home as a freelance designer, so I'm home throughout the day and enjoy having a furry coworker by my side. Whether your dog loves walks, fetch, belly rubs, naps on the couch, or simply being near people, they'll get plenty of attention and companionship while they're here. I also have an almost 6-year-old daughter who has grown up around dogs her entire life. She's gentle, respectful, and absolutely adores them. One of her favorite things to do is sit beside them and read stories. Because our home includes a young child, I can only host dogs that are comfortable around children, and all interactions are always supervised by me. My goal is simple: to make your dog feel safe, loved, and right at home while you're away. I'm currently freelancing as a designer, so I spend most of my day at home. After I drop my daughter off at school each morning, I'm back home for the day, which means your pup won't be sitting around waiting for someone to come home from work. Whether we're hanging out in the yard, going for a walk, playing fetch, or just keeping each other company while I work, I genuinely love having dogs around and spending time with them. Your dog's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully fenced with a large front yard and backyard, and all outdoor time is supervised. Dogs are never left outside unattended and will always have access to a clean, comfortable indoor space to relax and feel at home. Before each stay, I like to learn about your dog's routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs so I can provide care that's as close to home as possible. Whether that means sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medication, reinforcing training, or making time for extra walks and play, I'm happy to accommodate. As a lifelong dog owner with experience fostering, dog sitting, and positive reinforcement training, I understand that every dog is different. My goal is to create a calm, safe, loving environment where your dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you're away. I'll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands. *Since our home includes a 6-year-old, I can only accommodate dogs that are friendly and comfortable around children.
About: I always love taking care of dogs and i've been around them my whole life. Over the last 4 years, I’ve regularly dogsat for my aunt whenever she would go out of town, which gives me consistent experience with caring for a dog and maintaining routines. I'm an at-home college student, so I'm home typically all the time. My classes and work are online so l'll be able to give your pet consistent attention and they won't lett alone for long periods! Safety is my priority. I keep my space tidy, pet-friendly, and free of anything they could get into. I will follow your instructions for feeding, walks, or any other requests.
“Melanie was AMAZING! I am so happy to have found her. It’s always a little unsettling leaving your dog behind on vacation, but knowing she was with Melanie (and basically on vacation herself!) put us at so much ease. Zoe had so many great adventures during her 1-week stay, from pack walks in the hills to the beach and beyond. Melanie and her family treated Zoe like a member of their family, which made us so happy. Melanie was super communicative and sent photos of their adventures daily. We’ll definitely be taking Zoe back to Melanie next time we need someone to look after her!”
“My dogs and I absolutely loved Janae and Damazhe!! They sent photos and updates daily. They also were extremely thorough in learning about the dogs’ habits, personalities, and needs. They were extremely responsive, transparent, and accommodating for my playful pups! Would definitely recommend and plan on booking again in the future!”
“Marilyn is so professional and reliable, we are so happy to have found her. She took our dogs last minute and we have definitely found our fit! She has a very large yard which includes a huge portion of it dedicated for dogs which is separated by a fence, just what our furry friends needed, not to mention the care and individual attention that she provided. I would definitely recommend her, and I am sure we will be back. Thanks much Marilyn!!”
“April & Nathan were beyond expectations! Such a wonderful couple who really understand all types of dogs. They are so attentive, so patient, and so loving as people and dog sitters. My pup shadow is a reactive dog and tested their patience a few times and they remained calm cool and collected throughout the stay. They are unmatched in my opinion and I would bring shadow back to them a million times over. Couldn’t recommend them more!”
“Winnie had such a good time with Natalie! She got so much love and exercise. Natalie also sent plenty of updates so I always knew how she was doing. I will be happy to book with Natalie again!”
“Rosa was amazing! Our dog Copper is very shy when she meets new people, so we were a little worried as this was the first time she’s stayed with someone other than family. Rosa was very patient, and Copper warmed up to her quickly. We’ve already booked again for future dates and highly recommend Rosa!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Sang (and her husband)! They watched my Birdie for 4 days while I was away and took great care of her. I received photos and updates everyday without prompt and could tell Birdie was enjoying herself. She was great to communicate with and very accommodating. Book Sang!!”
