“Just the most lovely family! They took such good care of my pup while I was away. I highly recommend them! Thanks so much for your patience and kindness with my pup.”
“We could not be more thrilled with April and her care for our Lulu. Everything about our experience with April exceeded my expectations in every way. She is kind, warm, and easy to talk with, while being professional and clear. She sent us tons of photos of Lulu throughout the day and it was clear April treated our Lulu like a member of the family. I could not be more pleased with April’s attention to detail but also just her overall demeanor. I would feel very at peace leaving our Lulu in her care going forward!! She is the best!!!”
“I truly can’t say enough good things about my experience with Jennifer. She took such incredible care of Pip and treated her like her own. From the start, she was warm, attentive, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful about Pip’s specific needs. She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”

She sent daily photo updates, kept us in the loop throughout the stay, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pup was well cared for and happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lucinda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!”

“I’ve had such a great experience with Ryan! He is incredibly dependable and reliable, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. He’s also super flexible and always willing to help out, even when I book on short notice. What really stands out is how accommodating he is—he genuinely pays attention to my dog’s needs and goes above and beyond to make sure she’s comfortable and happy. It’s clear he truly cares, and that means everything to me. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for their pet!”
“Jonathan was amazing! I am super nervous about leaving my dog with anyone. But I felt super comfortable and reassured after meeting Jonathan and Poppy. He is very attentive and knowledgeable. I was updated daily and could see how comfortable and safe my dog felt. Could not recommend a sitter enough!”
“My Furbaby (Baby) is stand-offish when interacting with others! But surprisingly, as we entered the home Baby proceeded as if she had been there before! In other-words, the home is filled with good vibes. Oli, assured me Baby would be fine and sent photos which were reassuring. Knowing my furbaby was comfortable, comforts me! Thank you for the warm welcome and the gracious hospitality! Thank you again!”
“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”
“Couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received at Nadège’s house! We were sent pictures and updates every day. She was very flexible when our schedule changed last minute. Nadège was a great communicator, always available to respond to a message. So professional in every way! Joni even made some new friends! Nadège is my “go-to” for any future dog care.”

“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”
“Highly recommend! 11/10 sitter! They kept me up to date on how my dogs were the whole time I was away with photos and videos. My dogs looked like they were part of the family. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while I was away!”
“Shelley was amazing! She was so friendly and helpful, she did a wonderful job with Copper and we would definitely use her services again. We returned from our trip to a happy and rested pup.”

Exactly what you’d hope for from a pet sitter. She goes ABOVE and beyond with her care and communication. I truly feel like I can’t leave my babies with anyone else anymore.

I highly recommend Melissa and Rover!”
“Jonathan was a lifesaver for us! He watched our dog, Bailey, on very short notice and took incredible care of her.

It’s such a relief to find someone Bailey feels comfortable with. We highly recommend Jonathan for your pups!”

She sent countless updates throughout the day that reassured me Penni was not only in good hands, but blossoming and gaining confidence with both her and her fur babies’ influence. She gave her snuggles and love and took her for a walk to the park by the beach. I couldn’t have asked for more. Penni went from clinging to my side and fighting to leave me when I dropped her off to hardly showing interest in coming home! We will definitely be using Aleesa over and over.”

About: I'm a sensitive, caring responsible individual who loves to play with dogs and with whom dogs love to play. I've worked at the Glendale, CA Humane Society Shelter walking dogs and really enjoyed the experience. I've owned dogs for a good part of my life. However, I recently had to put Taffy, my last dog, to sleep. She was 16 and not doing well. It was heart wrenching and I thought perhaps that rather getting another, I could give the love I have for dogs to others, without having the ultimate burden of ownership. I live in Agoura Hills, CA. There lots of room for dogs to walk and play, lots of trees and grass for dogs to sniff and explore. There are also lots of other dogs in the community and opportunities for dogs to socialize, if the owners and the dogs want. I have a fenced yard and I work from home. I have a flexible schedule. Consequently, I can adapt my schedule to your dog's schedule. I have a fenced yard and I have no other dogs. Even though the house is on two levels, it's easy for dogs to navigate.

She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Lucinda took wonderful care of our dog Kona while we were away! She sent daily photo updates, kept us in the loop throughout the stay, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pup was well cared for and happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lucinda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!”
“Colin was incredible with Kaia once again. I have the utmost confidence that Kaia is going to be well taken care of and have fun/be loved when she's with Colin. Couldn't recommend more.”
“I’ve had such a great experience with Ryan! He is incredibly dependable and reliable, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. He’s also super flexible and always willing to help out, even when I book on short notice. What really stands out is how accommodating he is—he genuinely pays attention to my dog’s needs and goes above and beyond to make sure she’s comfortable and happy. It’s clear he truly cares, and that means everything to me. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and attentive to care for their pet!”

“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“I last minute needed to schedule a sitter for Bentley, I reached out to Ashton and Jay. They were very responsive, quickly set up a meet and greet. Jay was awesome, he was very chill, he had great energy Bentley and I felt comfortable with him almost immediately. Unfortunately I did not meet Ashton during this stay however; Jay sent updates to let me know my baby was doing great. Bentley is very spoiled and will sometimes decide not to eat the first day that I leave her, the fact that she ate so well for Jay told me she was very comfortable there! I am so happy we found Jay and Ashton! You better believe I will use them again!”
“Henning & Dana were so caring and kind to take care of our boy... We got the sweetest photos of Dexter and Iceman playing everyday and he was so happy. We were able to enjoy our time knowing he was in great hands. We really appreciate all the care, communication and outstanding attention. Big Thank you!! -Vanessa”
“Thea was great match for both of my dogs, from the beginning, I really loved the idea of the meet & great, it is a peace of mind knowing that you don’t have to worry about the actual day! I would definitely rebook with her, for the near future.”
“Jamie was great! Pup was very nervous going into a new space, but by the end of the weekend was playing and settling in. Got great pictures and videos during her stay that put me at ease the first time boarding her. Jamie will definitely be a top choice when needing to board in the future.”
