“Great experience, sent a lot of photos and was very responsive to any questions I had. First time leaving my dogs somewhere and I felt very comfortable. Would definitely use again.”
“Camille was wonderful! She kept me updated about how my pup is doing throughout the entire stay. Layla also had the best time and enjoyed all the cuddles! I‘ll definitely book Camille again.”
“This was the 2nd time I boarded my dog with Chan and Jibin and this time it was for a couple weeks. They took GREAT care of him and provided me with updates throughout. He had a great time hanging out with them and Cream. Thank you so much!”
“My dog had a wonderful time being cared for by Nayira and her family. She made it easy for my husband and I to relax on vacation knowing he had so much love and attention. She also was great communicating when issues came up. Would absolutely recommend booking with Nayira and I’m sure my dog is looking forward to his next stay. :)”
“There is literally no one else I'd rather have watch my most treasured fluffy boi and It's obvious that he feels the same. Nicole is always on point with any care instructions and treats our dog like family. There's always plenty of pictures, check ins, behavioral notes, and lots of communication. Best home away from home for any furry friend. I only wish I could add more stars.”
“Sean was great with our senior, special needs dog. We feel completely at ease that our little girl was well taken care of. Sean sent us daily updates with photos, and we have already booked him again for our vacation next month. We don't need to leave our little girl anywhere else. My wife and I completely recommend Sean.”
“Ashton sent photos and updates and also picked up and dropped off my little guy for me. Thurgood was happy and loved while I was away! I’ll definitely be booking again and can’t recommend enough!”
“My dog, Bert, loves being with Stacey and her dog, Lucy. Stacey sends lots of pics and Avery always looks happy. I appreciate all that Stacey does to make sure Bert feels right at home and loved. Thanks❤️”
“We were lucky enough to have James be available to take care of Legend while my family and I were on a 7-day cruise. He provided us updates and some pics. We knew Legend was in good hands. We will definitely use James again.”
“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog sitter provided for my Great Pyrenees, Suzy. Suzy can be a handful because of her size and personality, but they handled her with so much patience, love, and attention. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Suzy looked so happy and well taken care of when I got home—it’s clear she was treated like family. Highly recommend their services to anyone who wants their pet in the best hands!”
“Lizet was wonderful with bear. She gives you updates and photos/ videos on your pet which it really appreciative of. She treats your pets like they were her own. Bear felt comfortable with lizet and you can tell she enjoyed her stay with lizet. Bear found her forever sitter and new friends 😁💙”
“Marcelo and his wife were excellent with my 2 dogs. They followed my dogs' dietary instructions and sent pictures often. One of my dogs is anxious and the other is slow to warm up to people but both dogs were very comfortable around Marcelo and his wife. We will be leaving our dogs with Marcelo again.”
“Just picked up our FRAPPE . Our boy is very shy and the fact that he was calm and relaxed says a lot about the energy he was around. And we loved that!! We’ll be definitely bringing FRAPPE BACK TO YOU GUYS. and thank you guys for being so mindful and taking our last minutes request 🙏🏼”
“Thank you Annabelle, Ben (and Ranger too) for taking wonderful care of my dog Luna. We will definetly use them again and recommend their service to family and friends. They are patient and kind and opened their home to our rambunctious dog. The photos of her playing, going for walks and "chillin" helped this fur mommy know she was happy and being well cared for.”
“Alina was an incredible sitter for my dog moose! he stayed with her over the july 4th holiday- moose is a rescue with some special needs, including fear of fireworks and other dogs. Alina treated moose with care and compassion, and she gave me honest updates if moose was struggling (without me needing to ask). it is such a relief to have found someone who seriously cares about moose and will go the extra mile to make sure he is cared for and that I know how he is doing!! I will definitely be hiring Alina again, and would recommend her to any dog owner, especially those who might need a little extra support.”
“Hayley and Arthur are incredible. I am incredibly precious when it comes to who I’d leave my dogs with. Our first stay with them, they were quick and easy to coordinate with. Now, after a much longer extended second stay, I continue to feel confident leaving my babies with them! They seem to really care for animals and understand that they are more than just pets to us - treating them with care and thoughtfulness. Pains me to share how much I love them (because I want them available for me always) but they warrant the good review!”
“Arizona had a wonderful stay with Kate and Aaron. She settled in quickly and felt comfortable from the very first day. They kept me updated with photos and messages, which made the whole experience easy and stress-free. Really liked those pictures from the back yard playtime. I would definitely book with them again. Arizona loved her time there, and I felt confident leaving her in their spacious home.”
“This was my first time using the Rover app, and I had to book very last minute for Milan, so I was definitely nervous. Aquillia was amazing and immediately put me at ease. She took very good care of Milan, kept me updated throughout the entire day, and sent pictures, which I really appreciated. I’m so grateful that she was able to accept my booking on such short notice. I will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you so much, Aquillia!”

“He was very kind and thorough with my cat. He paid close attention to all the details and asked questions. I really appreciated how careful and precise he was. Great communication and very punctual. Thank you!”
“Hiba took a good care of my baby boy Phil. She followed my instructions and Phil told me all about good time they spent together during my absence. He also complained that I left him for long time but do not mind to hang out with Hiba again if I need to leave in the future. Definitely will hire Hiba again!”
“Jenny is top tier!! I have no doubt in my mind my precious Charlie is in good hands with her. Wonderful descriptions and updates on Charlie when we’re gone! I honestly look forward to them. Amazing photography that includes action level shots. Jenny is my go-to. Highly recommend!”
“Bethany is amazing. She is reliable, caring, thorough and excellent with communication. She sent us lots of pictures and sweet updates while we were in Japan for 2 weeks. We were nervous about being away from our babies for so long but Bethany really did put all worries at ease. I’m so glad we found her and will definitely seek out her care for future trips!”
“Kathryn took great care of my cat Fancy while we were away for a few days. Lots of photo updates and written descriptions of her visits! Kathryn was a huge help and I will definetely rebook into the future.”
About: I have extensive pet sitting experience and come from a family of animal lovers—we were always the go-to pet sitters, even when we didn’t have pets of our own. I genuinely love dogs (yes, I’m the guy who always asks to pet your dog). I’m based in Van Nuys and currently building my Rover profile as a part-time sitter. At the moment, I’m traveling by walking, which means I focus on nearby clients and reliable, on-time care. I take responsibility seriously and treat every pet like they’re my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! Monday–Friday: late afternoon to late evening. Flexible and open to other times as needed, including late-night care. Let me know a week in advance if you need weekend care. On vacation July 13-31 I care for pets in my client’s home by following their instructions closely and making sure I respect their routines, rules, and preferences. I understand that every pet and household is different, so I take the time to learn what each animal is used to—feeding schedules, walking routes, behavior guidelines, and any special care needs.
“Minerva is a lifesaver! Not only did she do a wonderful job with my little old lady but she was also so helpful when I was worried my cat was sick. She was so quick with her replies and went back to check on her. I am so grateful and will be booking her again!”
“Jessica is an amazing pet sitter! She’s super responsive, is caring and affectionate towards pets, and will make sure to leave detailed information for each fur baby during every visit. Will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her!”
“Vanesa is amazing!! My cat Penny warmed up to her so fast. She was great with communicating with me everyday with pictures and videos to make sure my cat was safe the entire time. Extremely friendly and even left us a cat treat at the end of the drop ins. Would 1000% recommend Vanesa to anyone looking for care.”
“Nora was terrific with our dogs! She got back to me right away, worked with our changing schedule, and was super sweet with the pups. I loved getting photos from her. I’m very thankful for the peace of mind she gave me and the TLC she gave dogs! Thank you, Nora!”
About: I have 7 cats of my own and have grown up around cats my entire life. I’ve cared for cats through every stage of life, from newborn kittens to senior cats. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable handling a variety of personalities and needs, including cats with anxiety, shy or traumatized cats, and cats who need extra patience to feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for pregnant cats and helping monitor their well-being. What sets me apart is that I truly understand cat behavior and know that every cat is different. I take the time to earn their trust and make sure they feel secure, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐱❤️
“Emma was wonderful with our cat Mimi! She sent daily photo updates that made our trip so much more relaxing, and she followed every instruction we left to the letter. It’s so reassuring to find a sitter who genuinely cares and communicates well. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for Mimi and couldn’t be more grateful. Highly recommend!”
“Tiffany was wonderful! We left our cat with her for 3 weeks and she took great care of him. This is the first time we've had to leave him for this long, but she made it easy for us to feel more comfortable about the experience. She and our cat got along really well, she was super responsive, and she sent us tons of photos and videos. She was also really attentive to him and his likes and dislikes -- when she noticed that he was interested in some boiled chicken that she was feeding to her dogs, she made sure to ask us if that was something he typically liked and was allowed to eat. Additionally, she was very accommodating of his habits. She bought him a cat cave in case he wanted to hide away (he loved it), and when he decided that his favorite place to be in her apartment was right on top of her pillow, she rolled with it which was very sweet. All in all, she was a great cat sitter, and we'd definitely recommend her to others in need of someone to take care of their cat!”

I treat every pet like my own—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cared for every moment.thank you I’m a stay at home mom, I’ve recently become bored so I figured I would make a little extra money and get the gratification of loving your pet like I do my own.

“Luciana took care very well of my cat Mau. He was nervous and scary the first days but Luciana handled the situation very well and then my cat was very happy and comfortable with her. She is nice and sweet. She was the perfect sitter for my cat!”

“Victoria took a last minute booking and was able to allow for a late evening pickup too, which I really appreciated. She kept me updated throughout the day and even sent a picture of him sprawled out and living the life on their couch. I’m sure my dog would love hanging out again in the future!”
“My dog had so much fun with Cassie! She was communicative and sent me photos and updates. She was patient with my dog despite her initial shyness. Highly recommend!”
“10 out of 10 stars for Chan Woo and his wife! During their time with Ellie, she suffered an unexpected injury (through nobody’s fault) and had to go to the vet for immediate care. They sprang into action and communicated with me immediately, keeping me posted on the emergency clinic where they were taking her (the accident happened very early in the morning). I met them at the clinic and decided to have Ellie treated at her usual vet. Jibin generously offered to ride in the back with Ellie, keeping her calm and comfortable. Throughout the rest of the day, Chan Woo and Jibin checked in to ask how Ellie was doing. I was touched by their genuine, heartfelt concern. Chan Woo and his wife did an exceptional job, in a difficult situation, caring for Ellie. I trust them completely to care for my pup! You cannot find more reliable, caring, and professional sitters. Big hugs and gratitude to you both!! ☺️🐶💖”
“This was Frida's second stay and I know she loves it here because she literally ran to the front door without looking back. She looks like she had a blast with Molly and the other dogs today. Thanks for all the great photos! See you next time.”
About: Hi I’m a full time pet sitter. I have been petsitting for the past 8years. I have a lot of time to take the doggies out for walks multiple times a day. I also interact with them, by playing or doing basic commands with them. They are always allowed hop on the couch and join me to cuddle while watching a movie. It’s a cage free environment, unless you are training your baby or prefer for your pup to be in a cage certain times. They will feel right at home, in a comfort place where they are allowed to roam around freely and cuddle up on the couch or the human bed at night. We also reward them with extra belly rubs and delicious treats! I am a full time pet sitter. During the day I do have multiple walks I go out to. My partner Maggie is also home full time to care for the pups while I’m away. Dogs in my home have to be friendly with humans and other dogs. I am only taking small- medium size dogs. Unless I’ve cared for a more relax friendly bigger dog that I know won’t need much space.
“We had a great experience with Sarah. Easy and flexible pick up and drop off, and she had a great space for Ansel. Ansel could relax and nap much of the day after stressful travel the previous day. We recommend Sarah.”
“Natasha took such great care of my pup and sent a ton of videos/photos during the day. She was very communicative leading up to the stay and throughout the visit. I will definitely be using her again to look after my dog!”
“Michelle has such a welcoming personality. Her family made me feel at ease with leaving YoYo. I didn’t have any concerns. She sent pictures & videos throughout the day. YoYo had a great time. Also, she was very accommodating with my late pick up time. I’ll definitely use her services again. Super thanks 😊”
About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages. I’m experienced with puppy training, including potty training, crate training, and basic routines. I also provide gentle and patient care for senior dogs, including medication support and extra attention when needed. I treat every pet like family and always create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine because I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I live in a large, safe home with a spacious backyard where dogs can play and feel comfortable. I also have a dedicated indoor area for sleeping, feeding, and relaxing, so your dog will always feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My goal is to give every dog the best possible experience while they are with me. Safety and trust are very important to me. I live in a safe home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can play comfortably and securely.

I always make sure pets are supervised, comfortable, well cared for, and treated like family, whether in my home or a client’s home.
About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in Los Angeles. I have cared for many breeds, ages, and personalities, including dogs with medical needs such as English Bulldogs. What sets me apart is the level of care and love I give. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine affection. I carefully follow routines, special instructions, and health needs. Our building has a private dog park, which makes potty breaks and daily walks easy and safe. Dogs get regular outdoor time in a secure space without busy streets, helping them feel relaxed, comfortable, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am always at home. I do not work outside the house, so I am able to give dogs full attention throughout the day. I am available every day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods and always have someone watching over them. I enjoy having dogs around and caring for them is part of my everyday life. I care for dogs in my home with lots of love, patience, and attention. I make sure they always have fresh food and water, follow their routines, and take them out for potty breaks and walks three to four times a day. I also spend time playing with them and giving them affection so they feel calm and happy. My building is quiet, dog friendly, and safe. It has a private dog park, which allows dogs to go outside easily without walking on busy streets. This creates a relaxed and secure environment for potty breaks, exercise, and optional interaction with other dogs if they enjoy it. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home.
About: Since I was a child, I cared for many animals and pets on my family's farm, and in the last 15 years in LA, I've had my own pets and all my neighbors and friends come to me for pet care while they are out of town! I work as a part-time plant science consultant, I am a mom of a 10-year old human and an 11-year old doggy, I have a flexible schedule and love to be active, so pet care fits in nicely! I have a secure and fenced in back yard and many comfortable spaces for dogs all around the house. Cats are not a good fit in our home, unfortunately.
About: I’ve had multiple pets my entire life, I currently have a 10 year old terrier mix her name is Horchata like the drink lol. My goal is to give your pets the same kind of dependable, loving care I would want for my own, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently home from college only working like 2 days out of the week so I have plenty of spare time to take care of any furry friends. I’m available most weekdays with a super flexible schedule. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medications, and bedtime routines. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also super respectful of each client’s home and always clean up after the pets and leave everything neat and organized.
“Renata has been one of the best sitters ever! I was very nervous to leave my pup because he was just neutered (still had stitches) but Renata did such a great job of allowing him to safely play with other dogs. She was also very communicative and sent me lots of updates and photos throughout the day. I am looking forward to future bookings as I know my pup will be safe and have lots of fun!”

About: Hi, I'm Bernadette! I have owned dogs my whole life and love the care and support they bring to everyone in their household (because I'll admit, mine are the true rulers of the house). Physical health is a big thing for my pups and I love taking dogs for walks in parks with lots of green space for them to enjoy. I have privately taken care of neighbors puppies before Rover for about 10 years and loved every minute of it. I have trained my family dog and would love to work on some training if that's needed or wanted. Your pup will get 100% attention from me to achieve 100% happiness for them. I'm here to help give your pet some much-needed love, and exercise.
“Very pleased with Karn's doggy daycare service. My dog seemed to be in good spirits when I picked him up, and he passed out at home immediately, which makes me think he had a good time. Karn shared video of my dog in their large backyard with plenty of room to wander and socialize with the other dogs. I would definitely be happy to use Karn again to babysit my dog.”

“My dog can be very stubborn and is quick to decide whether or not he likes you, but surprisingly Mason was a very happy dog with Jamie, he was well behaved and it seems like they had a blast! I highly recommend if your dog has trust issues, or is a nervous one to book with Jamie. I would definitely book again!”
“First, Ashton and Jay were amazing. I was reluctant at first to let strangers take care of my puppy for a little bit but after meeting them could tell they loved animals as much as me. And Fiona loved them. My puppy's care were their first priority. Would definitely use them again. The only bad thing I could say about them is that other people also know how good they are and use them so availability is tough sometimes. If you are unsure about using them don't be. You won't be disappointed.”

About: I love playing with playful pups or chilling with lap dogs! I have a cat at home and I have been a sitter on Rover for 2 years. I am not experienced to potty train! If your pet is not potty trained or has a severe case of separation anxiety, I do recommend you look for another sitter :) This is my full time job! I do have a cat to take care of so I will leave to take care of her for a few hours or run errands. I will keep clients’ homes clean and locked when I’m not there. Let me know if any of your pets like to escape and I will be careful opening the door!
About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust to watch their pets because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a puppy with lots of energy, a senior pet who needs a slower pace and extra care, or a pet that’s a little shy at first, I’m patient and happy to adjust to their needs. I pay attention to the little things, follow routines closely, and love sending updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re hanging out with a friend, not just being watched I’m currently on summer break from my job as an elementary after-school teacher, so I have a more flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. During the summer, I work a part-time job, which allows me to provide care before and after my shifts. I’m able to plan my schedule around pets’ needs and make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m also available on weekends for extra visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention if needed. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and get plenty of love and attention. I know every cat is different—some want constant cuddles and playtime, while others prefer their space—so I always let them set the pace. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for
“Minerva is the most caring and loving dog walker! She takes her time walking Kobe and sends plenty of pictures and updates about his activities (pee, poo, etc.). She's very detailed, quick to respond, communicative, and incredibly friendly. You can tell she's an animal lover. Kobe has fallen in love with her in such a short time! Can't thank Minerva enough for everything she does for our Kobe!”
“Vanesa has been absolutely wonderful with our yellow lab! She’s kind, attentive to his needs, and always makes sure he gets the care and attention he deserves. She’s consistently on time, communicates clearly, and always lets us know how each walk went. It’s such a relief knowing our dog is in great hands - we couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
“Jaime was absolutely awesome with Boosh, our Pit/Lab baby girl. He was able to pick her up and down the stairs to our complex. We had dog family over for a week and Jamie was able to accommodate walking them on short notice. Boosh loved seeing him and would bring him her ball a few times; seriously jelly about that. ?”
About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, up to 5 dogs. I’ve never had an empty household. Dog hair is a part of my life lol. I’ll be make sure to give your pet plenty of scratchies & pets if they allow it! I love snuggles with pets and giving them my undivided attention :) I’m currently working part-time, I am an artist as well. I moved away from home without my pets, so I would love provide for pets! I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I currently am looking to move into an apartment, so at the moment I don’t have space to care for a pet overnight, but I can travel.
“Vanessa is absolutely wonderful. My dog is always so excited to see her and loves their walks! She is very friendly and communicative, and also flexible, which I appreciate. I’m very grateful for her!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 12 years and genuinely love being around animals. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while away. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy pets, and shy animals. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable, and I’ll treat your pet like my own. I am new to the are and am currently have a full-time job and am looking to work more with animals in my free time. I’d love to help keep your pets active, happy, and healthy while also staying active myself through regular walks and pet care! I provide a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment for every pet I care for. I follow all instructions closely, supervise pets at all times, and prioritize their comfort and well-being.
About: Hi my name is Nora and I am 28 years old. I work in social media marketing. I grew up with two dogs and several cats and have always loved taking care of animals. My family adopted another dog last year and she is so sweet. Along with caring for my own dogs and cats, I have helped take care of my friends and neighbors pets as well. I so look forward to meeting and caring for your fur babies! I work remotely in social media marketing. I would love to add walking dogs and pet care to my weekly routine, to surround myself with more fur babies! I have a spacious fenced in back yard and a very sweet dog to keep your fur babies company should you book doggy daycare services with me.

I have a secure and fenced in back yard and many comfortable spaces for dogs all around the house. Cats are not a good fit in our home, unfortunately.
About: Ive always loved and gotten along with animals. My mom taught me at a young age to not just react to their actions but to listen to them on a deeper level while intuiting their emotions. I love and respect dogs and cats because of how emotive they are and how unique each one of their personalities is. No two are alike, which is why caring for one is always a unique experience. I am available for all times any day of the week! I am a solo game developer so since I work for myself, if I am not writing code, I'll be taking care of your pets! I have am completely open to being recorded on a ring/home camera for owners own sense of security and to ensure I am giving the absolute best care to their little ones.
About: Growing up in a house full of dogs, I guess I picked up a few tricks along the way. My friends joke that I’m the “dog whisperer,” but honestly, it’s more like I’m their unpaid therapist. Most dogs and I vibe right away, like we’ve got some unspoken connection. Even the cautious ones usually come around pretty quickly.. maybe it’s the good vibes..? Maybe it’s the good treats..? Either way, mi casa, their casa. 🏠🐶 Now that I’m pursuing music full time, my schedule is much more flexible! I work from home during the week and usually keep my weekends open, so I can be fully attentive and available for your pup whenever they need me. 🫡 I prioritize being present with your pets at all times to ensure their safety and provide them with a home-like sense of security, knowing they have a trusted friend by their side. 🐾 🤝

About: As dog owners ourselves, we believe in a simple principle: we won't do anything for your dog that we wouldn't do for our own. During the time they're with us, we treat them as if they were our own, with full attention and care. What makes our care different is that your dog gets the attention of two people, not one! Both my spouse and I work from home, so there's always someone around for companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. We also know LA life can be unpredictable, so having two of us means we're able to stay flexible and work around your schedule whenever possible. As a clinical psychologist with a background in behavioral psychology, plus hands-on experience having personally adopted and trained a rescue dog, I understand dogs' needs on a deeper level, from anxiety and attachment to motivation and habit-building. Over the years caring for dogs across LA, we've worked with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities, including dogs with picky eating, excessive barking, or high energy levels, and tailor our approach to each dog's individual needs. We always welcome a meet & greet before booking! There's a large, quiet park right by our home where we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure everyone feels comfortable. **First time clients please enjoy $20 off your first booking!** https://www.rover.com/sit/chanwl43421 Schedule Both my spouse and I work from home, so we're available for care any day of the week! Weekdays and weekends alike. This also gives us a lot of flexibility with pick-up and drop-off times, and we're happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need a quick daycare visit or long-term boarding, we'd love to help. Safety, trust & environment In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play, and with two of us around, dogs are never left unattended! You'll get regular check-ins and updates so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands. I follow your dog's routine closely and keep safety top of mind, whether it's leash rules on walks, feeding instructions, or respecting boundaries around other pets (We have three playpens! on hand, so we can easily section off space when needed). Our back patio is fully fenced, so dogs can enjoy off-leash time to run and play safely. We've made sure there's nothing sharp or hazardous back there, and we clean up after every potty break and hose down the area to keep it fresh and sanitary. Neighborhood dogs stop by for potty breaks too, so it's also a great spot for your pup to socialize. Being a typical Asian household, we don't wear shoes inside and that same care extends to keeping things clean for your pup! We vacuum 3-4 times a day, wash food and water bowls after every use, and wipe down paws with baby wipes (dog-wipes on request!) after walks.
“Bryanna has been great with our dog Buster and takes lots of pictures and even videos during her visits. She is good at communicating and responds to messages quickly. She's dependable and shows up when she says she will and we are really happy to have found her. She brings her dog to play with Buster and it's been a great arrangement for Buster to have a friend and more socialization. She was willing to just come herself to take Buster on his walk if they didn't get along. We hope Bryanna continues to be available to visit Buster.”

I know how important it is to exercise your dog especially in a smaller space so we go on walks 3x a day. He is my spoiled baby. I fall in love with all dogs I take care of as if they were my own & like to take extra steps (cuddles, treats, walking, playing.. etc) to ensure they are comfortable while their parents are away.

“My dog had a wonderful time being cared for by Nayira and her family. She made it easy for my husband and I to relax on vacation knowing he had so much love and attention. She also was great communicating when issues came up. Would absolutely recommend booking with Nayira and I’m sure my dog is looking forward to his next stay. :)”
“There is literally no one else I'd rather have watch my most treasured fluffy boi and It's obvious that he feels the same. Nicole is always on point with any care instructions and treats our dog like family. There's always plenty of pictures, check ins, behavioral notes, and lots of communication. Best home away from home for any furry friend. I only wish I could add more stars.”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog sitter provided for my Great Pyrenees, Suzy. Suzy can be a handful because of her size and personality, but they handled her with so much patience, love, and attention. I received regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Suzy looked so happy and well taken care of when I got home—it’s clear she was treated like family. Highly recommend their services to anyone who wants their pet in the best hands!”
“Just picked up our FRAPPE . Our boy is very shy and the fact that he was calm and relaxed says a lot about the energy he was around. And we loved that!! We’ll be definitely bringing FRAPPE BACK TO YOU GUYS. and thank you guys for being so mindful and taking our last minutes request 🙏🏼”
“Thank you Annabelle, Ben (and Ranger too) for taking wonderful care of my dog Luna. We will definetly use them again and recommend their service to family and friends. They are patient and kind and opened their home to our rambunctious dog. The photos of her playing, going for walks and "chillin" helped this fur mommy know she was happy and being well cared for.”
“Alina was an incredible sitter for my dog moose! he stayed with her over the july 4th holiday- moose is a rescue with some special needs, including fear of fireworks and other dogs. Alina treated moose with care and compassion, and she gave me honest updates if moose was struggling (without me needing to ask). it is such a relief to have found someone who seriously cares about moose and will go the extra mile to make sure he is cared for and that I know how he is doing!! I will definitely be hiring Alina again, and would recommend her to any dog owner, especially those who might need a little extra support.”
“Tate would be lucky to get to stay with Candy and her Vizsla again. Candy is very knowledgeable about dogs and their habits. Her calendar fills up quickly so book ahead!”

“Alexis & Melisa were incredibly kind. They took care of our dog and he loves them so much. During the meet and greet my dog felt at ease which helped us trusting them without any worry.
