“My husky had such an amazing time with this family! I felt so comfortable leaving her with them and never had to worry about how she was doing. My dog has separation anxiety but the family went out of their way to make sure she was never alone. Luna had daily walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. Tomoko was so great to talk to and also sent daily updates of their activities. 100% will book them again! -Jill”

Silvana was so professional and knowledgeable in caring dogs. And surely will recommend her 100%. John&KrisG”

Teddy is very picky and Kiya really took his time to help him out which was really great. Would recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”

“We are so beyond grateful for April! Our dog Frankie got sick right before our honeymoon, and we were so nervous to leave him. But April went above and beyond—nursing him back to health, making sure he was eating, hydrated, and loved every step of the way. She gave us regular updates, eased our minds, and treated Frankie like her own. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter during such a stressful time. Thank you, April, for taking such amazing care of our boy! 🐾💛”

They treated our dogs like their own; cuddling with them in bed, taking them on long walks, and keeping them entertained through out. Annabelle and Ben’s kids also made our dogs feel at home and showered them with affection. Annabelle also made sure to send daily updates with pictures and videos, allowing us to enjoy our vacation guilt-free. Needless to say, Annabelle and Ben will be our go to”
“I was scrambling for a sitter last minute and Stacee came to the rescue and was able to watch my dog, Finn, for a night. She cared for Finn like he was her own. He's not the best at walks, but she was able to take him on a morning hike and he absolutely loved it! He had a blast with Stacee and her dog Blake. Your dog is in good hands with Stacee.”
“Needed help with my dog on a trip to Malibu so we could enjoy the day while he would be able to enjoy his day too somewhere more dog friendly. Signed up for Rover to try that solution and worked great. Booked the day before and had no problem. Melissa showed up on time to pick Rio up, took great care of him, sent multiple videos during a 1 day stay, and returned him happy and fed. Couldn't ask for more, thanks for your help”
“We highly recommend Cedric. He and his family took exceptional care of our dog while we were out of the country. He kept us updated and it was evident our dog was very happy and comfortable in Cedric's home. We look forward to rebooking with Cedric for our next trip. Cedric and his family are wonderful.”
“Armittee took great care of my dog, who is shy and cautious. My dog had a nice time and enjoyed playing with another small dog who was also staying there. I appreciated the updates, photos, and videos of my dog while I was away.”

About: I’ve spent lots of time around animals, and I have a dog of my own! I’m very patient because I work with kids and that transfers into this line of work well! I’m working part-time and have easy transportation which makes this a great gig for me. I’m flexible with my availability and I care about the work that I do. I have a dog named Codi who is my world and I adopted him at 4 weeks old and that taught me a lot about puppy care. I love walks with him and taking him on car rides. He loves to run around with me doing everything!
“I cannot say enough good things about Kristen. She went above and beyond to take care of my spicy kitty and filled me in the whole time. She truly understands and respects pets and your space. I would recommend and book her again any day. Thanks girly!”
About: My friends have cats and they often jump up on me and take a little purring nap. I’ve really only known chill cats but my brothers ex’s cat was a Velcro cat that would always want to cuddle with me when I was over those are my favorite kinds of kitties.
“Megan did a great job going above and beyond. One of my cats shredded a paper towel roll, and she cleaned it up without being asked to. Felt very confident that my animals were being taken care of well!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Ariana! She has an incredible way with animals and instantly bonded with my cat. Her attention to detail and genuine love for cats shine through in everything she does. While I was away, Ariana provided daily updates with adorable photos and thoughtful messages, which reassured me that my cat was in the best possible hands. My cat was not only well-fed and cared for but also entertained and happy. Ariana's reliability and dedication are truly outstanding, and I am so grateful for her exceptional care. I highly recommend Ariana to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate cat sitter. Thank you, Ariana, for taking such wonderful care of my fur baby!”
“Adeline is such a gem—so sweet, caring, and passionate. She’s wonderful with my 4-year-old, AMAZING with my puppy, and my dogs cherish her as much as I do. She’s reliable, attentive, and I know I can count on her to give the best care. I’m so grateful to have found her as our weekly sitter. She’s the best!!”
“I had a great experience with Anna. I was comfortable leaving my 2 dogs with her while I was traveling. She was taking good care of them, made each visit on time and kept me updated about everything.”
“Kiyarash was awesome! He responds super quickly and it was easy to set up a meet and greet. He gave great updates and sent photos of both of our cats. We will be using him for our future needs!!”
“My husband and I needed someone to take care of our 2 cats (and the house) while we were away so we chose Larry, even though we read he is a big dog-lover. It goes without saying that we were nervous leaving a perfect stranger at our house with the cats, after 4 years of not leaving the house for even a single night, but having Larry over put our minds at ease. Larry has a very mellow and quiet personality, so even the skittish cat started to accept having a stranger in the house by the third day. Having someone you don't know come to stay at your house and take care of your pets will always be stressful, but I can honestly say that Larry is 100 % trustworthy when it comes to taking care of both the pets and the house. We already booked him for our next trip away and plan to use him as long as he is available.”
“Helen was amazing! You can tell she really cares about bonding with pets. She gave us many updates and was very communicative. Don’t hesitate to book her, she’s very trustworthy!”
“Kim looked after my cat for a few days and the entire experience was great. Very easy to coordinate with and responsive. Highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a sitter!”
About: I’ve been caring for cats since I was 12 years old and have experience owning and fostering cats with a variety of personalities and needs. I’ve cared for kittens, adult cats, and senior cats, including raising a kitten from just two weeks old through bottle feeding every 2-4 hours. This experience has taught me how to recognize individual needs and provide patient, attentive care.
“Another great drop-in with Anthony. He's a very understanding and patient person and that really helps with bonding with our anxious dog. He's always on time and doesn't mind taking the time it takes to get to know a dog.”
About: I grew up with dogs and cats and always found myself helping friends and neighbors to train their dogs and look after their cats. It is beyond rewarding to see the comfort and relaxed nature of pets develop as a result of training and devoted care and time. I have experience with cats raised from birth, and fostered dogs from unfortunate situations (most recently a stubborn husky who learned to play at 9 years old). In addition to happy pets, my goal is to support busy pet owners with pet clean up and organization recommendations to help make your life easier and more time to appreciate your furry friend. I work full time and am a returning college student with a consistent schedule and experience managing hectic calendars. I maintain a promise to stick to all appointments and communicate promptly regarding any changes and/or updates. I am available during the week after 6pm, and on the weekends from 9am to 5pm. Please feel free to message me with any questions and we can troubleshoot appointments and care that work for you. I cater to all animals based on their needs and comfort levels. From highly energetic play, to quiet company, I focus on building trust with your pet in their safe space to reduce stress and help support structure and routines. I welcome conversations with you to understand what is most important in your expectations and the elevated treatment of your pet(s).
“Laina did exactly what we agreed upon. I would have liked pictures of his dishes after he ate. And a few more of him if he did more than sleep while Laina was here. All in all, I am happy with Laina's commitment to Theo. Thank you.”
“Julia is so sweet and Rocket really loves her! As an over the top dog Mom, I trust Julia 100%. She is professional, polite, responsive and you can see her love for animals. We are so happy to have Julia to come check in on Rocket!”

“We’ve never felt so good about sending our dog somewhere for the day! Finn gets SO excited when we pull up to Nadia’s house. He is always so happy when he gets home and we know he loves his day playing with all the dogs and Nadia’s daughter. 100% recommend sending your pup to Nadia’s!!”
“Jiminy started wagging his tail right away. That is the best sign for a dog mom. Marcella sent photo plus her house house is in a very good location for the west Valley.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Kiyarash while visiting California for a family vacation. Leaving our puppy with someone new while traveling can be stressful, but they immediately made us feel comfortable and confident that our boy was in great hands. They were caring, communicative, and clearly treated our puppy as if he was their own. He came home happy and well cared for! We’re so grateful for the peace of mind they gave us during our trip. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter, and we would happily book with them again in the future!”
“Stanislava looked after my fur baby for the day, and he had such a great time! She sent me the cutest photos all throughout the day, had great communication, and took great care of my little boy ?. We will definitely be back! ☺️”
About: I got my first dog when I was 5 and it was my responsibility to feed, wash, and care for her. I’m an animal lover who currently has two small senior dogs (Maltese and silky terrier) as well as one cat (grey tabby). On top of the animal mom title, I have three little ones of my own. They love animals as much as their mom! My husband has a police officer brother who has trained k9’s his whole life and has tons of experience with obedience and training tactics. Daniel has learned from his brother a lifetime of knowledge and experience with all breeds of dogs after training German shepherds and labs primarily. We won’t train your dog, but we have the ability to teach and handle all kinds of fur babies (big or small). Since I’m a stay at home mom, I can board cats and dogs as needed. Our animals love other pets and are really friendly. Dogs shower weekly and take monthly flea medicine so they are always clean. I have a house with a fenced backyard and room to roam inside. Since we live in Woodland Hills where wild animals are seen every week (skunks, rabbits, raccoons, opossums, coyotes, etc.) we don’t let the animals or kids to be out without an adult. We take extra precautions to be safe and never alone. It’s a family home where pets are part of our family and so will your fur baby. P.S: We also don’t have cages or crates.
About: Hi, I’m Julia! I’ve been a dog sitter for 10 years and absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. I have two dogs of my own and lots of experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve cared for pets with a wide range of needs, including: • Puppies, kittens, and senior pets • Dogs recovering from cancer or amputation • Dogs who experience seizures • Pets with limited mobility or arthritis • Dogs with chewing habits and anxiety • Medications and following special routines I’ve also watched cats and would love to gain more experience with them too! Above all, I truly love caring for animals and want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I always keep communication open and send regular photo updates, so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. I am available for only boarding/house sitting during the work week (Mon-Fri) and available for all care including drop ins, walks, house sitting and boarding on weekends :) With my extensive experience of watching dogs I’ve learned a lot about keeping animals safe. I’m constantly keeping an eye on them and looking out for any potential hazards. I always create a safety plan with the pet parent beforehand so if anything ever did happen we can get your pet the care it needs as soon as possible .

Some fun facts about me, I am a 23 year old part time online student & full time pet caregiver for over 7+ years now! I have grown up and been around animals my whole life and absolutely adore every animal I’ve had the pleasure of encountering. I would definitely go as far as saying I have a very deep passion for them! But sadly due to obligations I have with school. I’m financially and physically unable to own a furry family member of my own at this time :/ which is just another reason I’d love the opportunity to give my time to get to know and give all my love to your pets! Giving them the absolute best care humanly possible! This may intel boarding’s, house sitting’s, walk’s, drop-in visit’s, grooming, feeding’s or maybe just some love anything I can do to make you and your fur babies life easier and happier! If you have any questions about my services or anything at all please feel free to message me anytime! I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!!🩷 I’m currently working part time at a hotel, with low hours my full time job is taking care of your pup! I’m available all days of the week especially weekends! I personally care for pets in my home/yours as if they are my own, I’ve had a passion for animals my whole life and will treat your pets with the love respect and kindness they deserve! I deeply care about the well being of all my pups and am willing to go the extra mile to prove it! I also have a “silent partner” kinda deal with my boyfriend kyle lol he accompanies me on certain occasions for safety purposes mine and of course the pups :)

About: With lifelong experience caring for dogs, horses, and cats, I'm an animal lover and horse whisperer. I train my pets, provide energy healing, and enjoy daily walks. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, as I work from home and have the flexibility to design my own schedule. As an energy healing practitioner, I prioritize mindfulness and balance, which extends to my pets. I incorporate playtime, walks, and training when needed into my day, ensuring they receive ample exercise and mental stimulation. During breaks from my meditation and yoga sessions, I find joy in spending quality time with my pets, fostering a nurturing environment. Their companionship enhances my work-life balance, and I often use sound healing techniques to create a calming atmosphere for both myself and my furry friends. Caring for pets in my home is a thoughtful process. I have a fenced yard where your dog can play safely alongside my sweet 15 year old boxer, who loves companionship. I welcome only dogs that are friendly with cats, as my 4 year old indoor cat enjoys their company. I feed all dogs outside, right in front of my kitchen, ensuring a clean and pleasant environment. Cats are fed separately in the kitchen, with their food placed on furniture to keep is safe from curious dogs. For hydration, I have a water fountain for the cats and a water dispenser for the dogs, both inside and outside for the dogs. When needed, I can easily crate your dog at night; my boxer is crate trained but prefers to sleep freely now. I require that you bring your dog and cat with their own bed, food, and treats, ensuring they feel comfortable. Additionally, It's essential that all pets have a collar with a tag and a leash for safety. This structured approach helps create a harmonious atmosphere for all furry friends in my care.
“Everything was great! We booked Phil and Lauren to watch Penny for a few hours. They were super flexible with the drop off time. Penny loves staying with them!”

I love the amount of communication about how the walks went and how the dogs are behaving while I'm out and about. My two rascals absolutely love her.

About: I’m a dedicated pet owner with experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. I currently have a 13-year-old American Bulldog, a young French Bulldog puppy, a 6-year-old cat, and caged pets. Caring for both a senior dog and a puppy has given me experience with different energy levels, routines, training needs, and age-related care. I believe every pet is unique and deserves individualized attention. Whether your pet needs extra patience, a structured routine, medication reminders, playtime, or simply lots of affection, I take the time to learn their personality and provide care tailored to their specific needs. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As an education professional, I’m off during the summer months and have a flexible schedule. My puppy follows a strict daily routine, so I’m already accustomed to planning my day around an animal’s needs. This makes it easy for me to provide dependable, attentive care and maintain your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining the routine they’re familiar with. I understand that every pet has different needs based on their age, personality, energy level, and health, and I take the time to learn what works best for each individual animal. As a pet owner caring for both a senior dog and a young puppy, I have experience with the patience, consistency, and attention required at different life stages. I understand the importance of scheduled feedings, potty breaks, exercise, enrichment, training reinforcement, medication administration, and adequate rest. I am comfortable following detailed care instructions and providing regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to treat your pets with the same level of care, respect, and attention that I give my own.
“Larry was amazing! Took our pup out for a solid 1+ hour walk everyday on our 2 week vacation abroad. Our dog clearly felt comfortable and happy with him. He even bought him booties because the side walk was hot!”
About: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I got my first pet at age 4 and have been taking care of cats and dogs ever since. I currently own 3 cats that are keeping me on my toes. I have experience administering medications when took care of my diabetic cat. I'm currently unemployed, so you have my undivided attention. I'm hoping to make pet sitting my next full time gig. I currently have full availability I currently live in a 2 BR apartment in a gated community, with a dedicated dog walking area. I will gladly let your dogs out in your yard, if that's what you're comfortable with or walk your doggo in his/her favorite stomping grounds. I'm totally flexible.
About: Dogs have been my life since I was 7 years old — that’s over 35 years of loving, caring for, and understanding what makes every dog tick. I own three incredible pups myself: two Pitties and a Doberman mix, so I know firsthand what big, energetic, loving dogs need to thrive. What truly sets me apart is that I volunteer at my local animal shelter, where I work hands-on with all breeds — from tiny dogs to large and powerful ones. I’m comfortable and confident with every size, temperament, and energy level because I’ve seen it all. Walking dogs isn’t just a service for me — it’s something I genuinely love. Your pup will get attentive, caring walks from someone who treats every dog like their own. I’m bonded, insured, and committed to giving your furry family member the best experience possible. Dog walking and pet care fit naturally into my daily routine. I’m available seven days a week with flexible morning, midday, and afternoon time slots. Whether you need a regular weekly walker or a one-time walk, I can work around your schedule and make it happen. Your dog’s safety is my absolute top priority on every single walk. I’m bonded and insured, so you have full peace of mind from the moment I pick up the leash. I walk in safe, familiar neighborhoods and keep dogs secure and controlled at all times — I handle big, powerful breeds every week at the shelter so no dog is too much for me. I send updates, photos, and check-ins during every walk so you always know your pup is happy and safe. Your dog will be treated exactly like one of my own three.
“Julia is wonderful and we’re greatful to add her to our list of dog walkers! She responds fast, is communicative and shared her experience during her walk with Rocky. Very sweet and caring and will definitely hire again, Rocky will be happy ?”

I’m honored to be entrusted with your pet’s care and work hard to make each visit a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend.
About: I have lived with animals for my entire life, and I worked at PetSmart taking care of dogs (both in groups and individually) and cats. I am a current student at Cal State Northridge and I am always looking to make some more pet friends! I have lots of downtime this summer, and am free all day on most weekends. I am able to work well in fast-paced environments while also paying close attention to my surroundings, allowing me to create a comfortable space for your animal while at the same time ensuring they are safe.
About: Hello, I'm Stacee and my family and I can't wait to shower your dog with love. We live in a 1 story house and I work from home, so I'm able to spend lots of quality time with your pup. I've been watching dogs for over 10 years and have experience with dogs of every size and I am a fear free certified pet sitter so I can look after your pets physical and emotional well-being. We are home during the day and love having visitor dogs. We enjoy spending time with the dogs, walking them and giving them lots of love. My home is safe for the dogs and I have double gates leading to the back yard. I have a pool, but it has a safety gate and unless the dogs are used to swimming, they do not go inside the pool area. Most dogs I watch hang out together but I am able to separate them if needed.

“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“My husky had such an amazing time with this family! I felt so comfortable leaving her with them and never had to worry about how she was doing. My dog has separation anxiety but the family went out of their way to make sure she was never alone. Luna had daily walks, playtime, and lots of cuddles. Tomoko was so great to talk to and also sent daily updates of their activities. 100% will book them again! -Jill”
“Silvana thank you for taking care & loving of our Kasper & Kassie. My 2 furbabies enjoyed their stayed in your house, loved the pictures and we see that our dogs made a lot of friends with the other dogs during their playtime. Silvana was so professional and knowledgeable in caring dogs. And surely will recommend her 100%. John&KrisG”
“Kiya is really nice and great and took amazing care of our golden retriever teddy. He kept me updated through the stay and sent me pictures and videos all the time. Teddy is very picky and Kiya really took his time to help him out which was really great. Would recommend to anyone who needs a pet sitter!”
“Just picked up our pup from staying with Nick and Laura for the weekend. We love knowing he’s in good hands whenever he’s with them! Highly recommend them!”
“Mariia was super sweet and caring with Murphy! He warmed up to her quickly and seemed to feel very comfortable with her. She was responsive and checked in throughout his stay with pictures! Murphy would love to see her again soon for another stay!”
“It will be hard to leave our pup with anyone else! They were the perfect family to take care of our Drew! Always sent updates, videos, and pictures. We felt really safe with Drew in their care!”
“Anebelle and Ben were amazing. They accommodated tedious different diet needs of our two dogs. They treated our dogs like their own; cuddling with them in bed, taking them on long walks, and keeping them entertained through out. Annabelle and Ben’s kids also made our dogs feel at home and showered them with affection. Annabelle also made sure to send daily updates with pictures and videos, allowing us to enjoy our vacation guilt-free. Needless to say, Annabelle and Ben will be our go to”
“I was scrambling for a sitter last minute and Stacee came to the rescue and was able to watch my dog, Finn, for a night. She cared for Finn like he was her own. He's not the best at walks, but she was able to take him on a morning hike and he absolutely loved it! He had a blast with Stacee and her dog Blake. Your dog is in good hands with Stacee.”
“Ori was great! Even though Maizy (my pup) and I were both nervous about the experience, Ori helped us to feel safe and confident. Ori sent photos of Maizy playing with the other dogs and updates about how she was doing at night. As a devoted pet parent, this was so helpful to reassure me that my baby was alright.”
“Love the attention Phil and Lauren gave Bailey. Taking her for walks, giving her treats and scratching her butt like she enjoys. They treated her like she was part of their family. Texting me photos of her off and on during her stay which made me feel comfortable. I will definitely use them again.”
“Natalie provided updates throughout the day. My dog is not friendly with just everyone but he was calm and friendly when he met Natalie. I will definitely rebook her in the future.”
“We are so happy we found Magenka and could tell right away how much of a dog lover she is. Our girl Yazzie was instantly comfortable with her and absolutely loved to exploring the backyard. We felt she was save, happy and extremely well taken care of while we were out of town. Thank you for being so kind and wonderful!”
“Armando was very quick to respond and did a great job with our puppy Haku! We could tell Haku had a great time and was very calm and comfortable in Armando’s presence. Armando’s yard is also very well kept and spacious. We will definitely book again!”
“Maryam was fantastic with Comet! Super reliable, communicative, and incredibly sweet. It’s such a relief finding someone you can trust completely with your dog. Comet had a great time and we will definitely be repeat clients!”
About: What sets me apart is that caring for dogs isn't a side job—it's my full-time profession. As a professional dog trainer, I bring a deeper understanding of canine behavior, communication, and safety than the average sitter. Because I work from home, your dog receives consistent supervision, structure, and personalized attention throughout the day. My goal isn't just to provide a place for your dog to stay—it's to give them a safe, enriching experience where they feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely at home. Hi! I'm Carter, a full-time professional dog trainer with over four years of experience in dog training, boarding, and behavior. Working with dogs isn't a side job—it's my career and my passion. Because I train dogs full-time from my home, I'm able to seamlessly integrate every dog into my daily routine. Your dog won't spend hours alone waiting for me to get home from work. Instead, they'll receive consistent supervision, companionship, exercise, and individualized attention throughout the day. My home features a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, and explore under close supervision. At night, dogs sleep in my room with me, helping them feel comfortable, secure, and part of the family. As a professional trainer, I understand canine body language and behavior, allowing me to safely care for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and needs. Whether your dog is outgoing, shy, or requires extra patience, I'll tailor my care to help them feel safe and at home. My goal is to provide a structured, loving environment where your dog can enjoy their stay while giving you complete peace of mind. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pup is doing. * 🐾 Full-time professional dog trainer with over 4 years of hands-on experience. * 🏡 Dogs are supervised throughout the day—I work from home full-time. * 🌳 Fully fenced yard for safe outdoor play and exercise. * ❤️ Dogs are treated like family and sleep in my room, not in isolated kennels. * 👀 Experienced in reading canine body language and preventing conflicts before they happen. * 🦴 Structured daily routine with exercise, enrichment, play, and rest. * 🐕 Care is tailored to each dog's personality, age, energy level, and individual needs. * 📸 Frequent photo and video updates so you can stay connected during your dog's stay. * 🤝 Safety, trust, and clear communication are my highest priorities. * 🛡️ Calm, clean, and low-stress home environment designed to help dogs feel comfortable and secure.
“Almira went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Rocky! It was clear she treated him like a member of her own family. She provided regular updates, tons of love, and made sure he felt completely at home. Knowing he was in such kind and capable hands gave us total peace of mind. I’m so grateful for her and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
