“The best care of my dog (Mochi) during vacation. Mochi slept by himself in an individual room with his own blanket and food drink bowl. The house and backyard is clean and provide a lot of room for him to move around. He made friend with Eric’s little dog. Mochi does not like to be with a lot other dogs. Eric’s place is perfect for him. Eric walked him everyday and send video to us everyday. Price is very reasonable. We will surely use Eric’s service next time if he has slot for Mochi.”
“Biscuit had an amazing time here. It was like a second home. Angelica was amazing with communication and updates. Will definitely use her in the future for all biscuit care!”
“This was the first overnight stay for my dog Millie. Janice is awesome! She took great care of Millie. I got several updates, which took all my worries away. And by the looks of it Mille had a wonderful time. Will board Millie with her again.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about the incredible care my senior dog received from Rika! At 16 years old, blind, deaf, and struggling with mobility and severe nighttime anxiety, my dog needed a lot of special attention. Rika was a total angel, truly heaven-sent, and made my dog feel comfortable and safe throughout my chaotic move. Her compassion and dedication were extraordinary. She adapted to my dog’s routine seamlessly, providing constant updates with photos and videos that put my mind at ease. Knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands was a huge relief. I highly recommend Rika to anyone who wants their pet to be treated like family with the utmost love and care!”
“Tiffany is very professional and has a high attention to detail. I have a senior dog who has medical issues that require medication and prescription dog food. Tiffany was able to follow all the instructions as well as provide exemplary care. She provided updates daily and pictures which put me at ease. Tiffany is such kind, trustworthy person and clearly loves dogs.”
“Rex's first time boarding was great and he had so much fun under Yueli's care. He was able to play and mingle with other dog friends. He was living his best life! Yueli provided daily updates with photos and videos. She was prompt with her responses. Highly recommend!”
“I was nervous about someone taking care of my two dogs for a week because they can be a handful. Robbie’s calm demeanor and confidence in handling them gave me peace of mind. He was accommodating to their individual personalities and gave me new insight on their behaviors. When I arrived to pick them up, my usually anxious Arthur was calm and relaxed. That says a lot. I will definitely use his services in the future.”
“We love leaving Pebbles with them! They are kind, understanding, and communicative. We have now left Pebbles with them 4 times, and they are always our number one choice. 100% recommend!”
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“Five stars. I couldn’t be happier with the care Jonesy received. Communication was excellent the entire time, and I always felt updated on how she was doing. It’s obvious Jonesy had a great time and was very well cared for. She came home happy, tired, and even learned a few new tricks while she was there. Most importantly, I felt completely confident that she was safe and in good hands. I would absolutely trust her with Jonesy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Lawrence is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had! He kept us updated the whole time with photos and videos, and even took our pups on different walking adventures every day. You can really tell he loves dogs and treats them like his own. We felt so at ease knowing our babies were in such good hands. We’re so happy we found him and would absolutely book with him again!”
“Thank you Sheila for taking good care of Mr.Fluffy and Tinkerbell. I am glad that I met you. I will recommend you to my family and friends whenever they need a dog sitter. And I will definitely bring you again Mr. Fluffy and Tinkerbell whenever we need your service. Thank you so much.”
“Jane took great care of Karambit while I was away. He gets a little down and doesn’t always eat when he’s boarded, but she and her husband gave him plenty of extra attention. It was clear he was well cared for”
“I recently had Connie take care of my dog, and she was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we met, I could tell she had a genuine love for animals. Connie was attentive, reliable, and kept me updated with pictures and messages throughout the stay. My dog was so happy and well-cared for, and I felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. I highly recommend Connie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter!”
“Highly recommend! Haijin and Victor took wonderful care of Milo while I was away. They were very communicative, sent updates and photos, and made sure my pet felt comfortable and loved. I would definitely book with them again!”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. My wife and I always have family house/pet sit when we go out of town, so leaving them with a sitter had us a bit anxious. During the meet and greet, Steven immediately put us at ease with his kindhearted and soft nature which made us confident in his ability to provide excellent care. While we were gone, steven provided updates with pictures every day, and we could see that they were happy, relaxed, and enjoying thier time with him. Steven was also very accommodating as far as drop offs and pick ups. We absolutely plan on entrusting steven with our pups again in the future. Thank you, Steven!”

“Sheila watched our two cats for four days. She met with us before the trip to make sure we were on the same page, especially about our vet if there was an emergency. During the trip she always checked in on time, sent great pictures, and wrote fantastic (and hilarious) summaries to let us know what was going on. When we returned, the cats were happy and relaxed and everything to do with the cats in the house was in great shape.”
“Kimberly was amazing! Just moved to the area and was nervous about finding a new sitter for a cat that recently became a solo cat but Kimberly eased all anxieties. Super communicative, timely, and considerate. Would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand and communicated with me so well that I felt completely reassured.

“I was a little nervous requesting a stranger come into my yard and pick up my dog while I was on vacation but Sheila made me feel at ease right away. Sheila has great upbeat and trustworthy energy. I liked her immediately so I knew she would get along well with my Coconut. She gave me the option of how I wanted Coconut’s walks to go (fast and far or leisurely sniffing pace) which I appreciated. She sent me pix of them out together and allowed me to see their route on the app. She even offered to take him for a field trip. By their last walk together Coconut was so excited to see her. She even left me a thank you note for trusting her “with my sweet boy.” 🥹❤️”

I often take videos of walks and when they're being cute or silly. 🌟 1-1 attention - I typically only host pups from one family at a time. There are no kids or other pets in my home so that means your pups get all the belly rubs, all the walks, and all the couch space in a calm environment. ⏱️ Consistency - I have a flexible work from home schedule so I can follow your care routine and instructions to the letter, including administering oral medication. 🌳 Fun adventures - This is what makes the stay special!

They can also go on the couch or bed if they're allowed. Note: I always prioritize your pups' comfort. If I ever consider taking on another guest during your stay, I will always ask for your explicit consent first! I work from home 4 days a week (sometimes everyday), so weekdays are easy for me. I don’t have many meetings and I have a lot of flexibility in when I do my work. I keep a clean and clutter free home. I live in a single story triplex. The place isn’t too big so I can have eyes on your pets most times. My neighbors don’t have any pets. There’s a dog park across the street if your pet is good with other dogs, otherwise it’s a nice place for a walk!

About: I just love spending time with cats and dogs. I am an active volunteer at a animal shelter. I participated in programs like dog socialization, public training classes and clicker training. I am also a team member of the cat adoption program which tasks include husbandry, socialization, adoption counseling and so on. And I do all of this for fun. Enjoying it 100%. Looking forward to have the chance to meet your furry friends!! Bilingual: English, 普通话 I have a flexible working schedule which can easily accommodate your need. I am available for dog walking and drop-in visit up to 3 times a day as long as I get a request in advance. Safety is the first priority for both of us. I always ask the parents for what is allowed and what is not. For dogs, I give them all my attention during walks (consistently of poop/pee, trash eating, etc.,). And after walks, I always wipe their paws and check for any signs of abnormalities. For cat drop-in visits, I perform husbandry including litter box cleaning and refilling, feeding and socializing if needed. Customization is welcomed. Communication is very important and trust can be built. Let’s make this a great experience.
About: For over 21 years, I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and needs. In addition to raising and caring for my own dog, I have successfully completed numerous pet and house sitting assignments through a couple of online marketplaces, earning exclusively 5-star reviews and multiple repeat invitations from pet owners. My experience includes caring for puppies, senior pets, anxious pets, multi-pet households, and maintaining consistent routines tailored to each pet’s unique personality and needs. I pride myself on providing a calm, loving, and structured environment that helps pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their families are away. My professional background managing luxury homes, investment properties, and complex operations has made me exceptionally detail-oriented, organized, dependable, and proactive. I treat every home with the same level of respect, cleanliness, responsibility, and care that I would expect for my own, providing both pets and their families with the highest level of comfort and peace of mind. I recently relocated to Southern California and currently maintain a very flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a wide variety of pet care needs. I am available during weekdays, evenings, weekends, holidays, and for overnight stays. As I establish my professional pet care business in California, I am prioritizing flexibility, reliability, and building long-term relationships with pets and their families. This allows me to provide attentive care, prompt communication, and customized support based on each household’s specific needs and routines. Safety, consistency, and communication are my highest priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s established routines, feeding schedules, exercise requirements, medications, and behavioral preferences to minimize stress and provide a comfortable experience. Having cared for pets in a wide variety of home environments, I understand the importance of maintaining a clean, organized, and secure environment while respecting each family’s home and privacy. I provide regular updates, photos, videos and prompt communication so pet parents can enjoy complete peace of mind while away. I maintain a calm, organized lifestyle, non-smoker, sober-minded and have extensive experience caring for pets that require additional patience, affection, structure, or attention due to age, anxiety, or personality differences.
About: I grew up with family pets such as nursing my 3 legged dog and rescuing cats. As well, as sitting for my cousins family pets! Pet care fits perfectly into my routine since I am available mornings and afternoons! A daily walk is great of me and my furry friend I care for my furry friends like family. I believe animals are pure innocence and need love and patience. Every animal has different levels of energy and socialization. They should be serviced to what they need!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I have experience with Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Labradors, Golden Retrievers, Poodles, Boston Terriers, and mutts. I love playing with dogs and just giving them all the scratches/pets. I always let the dog come to me on their own terms. I want them to be comfortable and feel safe. I’m open to pet care mostly anytime. I am in between jobs and pursuing my career in Human Resources, so I am happy to help with pets. When I have watched family/friends pets in their home, I follow the instructions left for me. I love taking pictures of pets too, so you’ll receive lots of pictures.
“We love Andrea! She offered to do a meet and greet before we booked her. She is EXTREMELY punctual, caring, and sweet. More so, our sweet boy Beckham loves walking with her. He always waits for her by the staircase waiting! Thank you Andrea! We are so grateful for you!”
About: Working at a dog groomers (Raining Cats and Dogs) taught me a lot about patience, attention to detail, and how to read each pet’s behavior and needs. I learned how to handle dogs of all temperaments, from nervous puppies to aging seniors, and developed a deep understanding of their needs! Alongside grooming, I've also provided personalized pet sitting services through Nextdoor, building strong bonds with pets and their owners! My main goal is to provide the most professional, compassionate care for your animals! Currently, I am self-employed as a homebase nail technician. This is the reason why I do not provide any at home pet sitting or boarding services. However, on the bright side, I am able to create my own schedule! This helps me accommodate to your personalized routines or needs. I offer dog walking, drop, ins, and pet sitting services. I do not have a preference on height, size, or breed all animals are welcome! I also have experience with cats and more than happy to take care of your cat as well.

“The best care of my dog (Mochi) during vacation. Mochi slept by himself in an individual room with his own blanket and food drink bowl. The house and backyard is clean and provide a lot of room for him to move around. He made friend with Eric’s little dog. Mochi does not like to be with a lot other dogs. Eric’s place is perfect for him. Eric walked him everyday and send video to us everyday. Price is very reasonable. We will surely use Eric’s service next time if he has slot for Mochi.”
“I was nervous about someone taking care of my two dogs for a week because they can be a handful. Robbie’s calm demeanor and confidence in handling them gave me peace of mind. He was accommodating to their individual personalities and gave me new insight on their behaviors. When I arrived to pick them up, my usually anxious Arthur was calm and relaxed. That says a lot. I will definitely use his services in the future.”
“Thank you Sheila for taking good care of Mr.Fluffy and Tinkerbell. I am glad that I met you. I will recommend you to my family and friends whenever they need a dog sitter. And I will definitely bring you again Mr. Fluffy and Tinkerbell whenever we need your service. Thank you so much.”
“Steven was an absolutely wonderful pet sitter. My wife and I always have family house/pet sit when we go out of town, so leaving them with a sitter had us a bit anxious. During the meet and greet, Steven immediately put us at ease with his kindhearted and soft nature which made us confident in his ability to provide excellent care. While we were gone, steven provided updates with pictures every day, and we could see that they were happy, relaxed, and enjoying thier time with him. Steven was also very accommodating as far as drop offs and pick ups. We absolutely plan on entrusting steven with our pups again in the future. Thank you, Steven!”
“Yuhong took care of my kitty while I was on a long vacation. We met prior to ensure Meru could meet Yuhong and it was clear Meru was going to be in great hands. Usually my neighbors will feed my cats while I’m on trips, but one of my cats crossed the rainbow bridge recently, and it gave me such peace of mind that Meru was not alone and had ample sweet and caring company with Yuhong and her husband. Meru had never been away from our home so she (and I) was nervous at first, but warmed up to Yuhong quickly. Yuhong played with Meru twice a day to keep her spirits up. I’m grateful this worked out and to have found a wonderful sitter moving forward!”
“Yifan took wonderful care of our dog while we were away for a few days. She sent daily updates with pictures, and Panko looked so happy spending time with her and her sweet golden. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Thank you and we’ll definitely be back for boarding/sitting needs in the future!”
“Lisa and family are so great with Mango and she always loves to board with them and whichever other dogs they’re sitting. It’s so fun for her to be part of the gang over there”
“Amazing experience! My 2 dogs stayed with Jianlei for a few nights and I would definitely book another stay for them in the future. With a park right next door, my dogs were able to take frequent potty breaks and walks. Jianlei was very responsive and sent pictures/updates in the morning and evening which definitely helped with my peace of mind, especially since I have a senior dog. My dogs thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Thank you so much!”
About: As a long time owner of a working breed, I am familiar with energetic dogs that need both physical activity and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy. I go on daily hour long strolls each evening with my own dog as well as morning walks with play sessions scattered throughout the day. In addition to caring for my own dog, I've regularly helped friends and watch their dogs while they're away. This has given me experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. Whether it's taking them on walks, keeping up with feeding schedules, providing companionship, or making sure they feel comfortable in a new environment, I enjoy getting to know each dog's unique needs and personality! When caring for your dog, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you're away, whether that means going on long walks, playing fetch, sticking to their routine, or simply providing companionship and attention. I live in a home with a fenced backyard with my partner who is also work from home, so we have a very flexible schedule and will always have at least one person supervising your pet. Since I've also used dog sitting apps before for when I needed to travel abroad, I understand how important it is to keep you updated with photos, messages, and plenty of reassurance so you can enjoy your time away knowing your dog is in good hands. I'm currently in-between jobs, so I'll have plenty of time to spend the day with your pups! This also means my current schedule is very flexible to fit around your dogs routine and needs. I have a fenced backyard with a friendly 4 year old Samoyed in a very walk-able neighborhood. I have a dog bed is most rooms around the house so they can pick and choose wherever they wish to lounge.
“Gus had a great vacation with Loretta and her family, he was very comfortable there. Loretta provided daily photos of Gus eating, walking and sleeping and was easy to communicate with.”
“Rique was AMAZING to Moo! Moo (being a senior) isn't a fan of staying at other places, but with Rique, it was different! Overall positive experience. Rique provided updates (w/ adorable pics) twice a day which put my mind at ease. Knowing Moo's a senior, Rique gave extra care+attention, sticking to the prescribed medication+food directions provided. I feel like I finally have a place for Moo to stay overnight comfortably when I'm out of town which is a huge win! Looking forward to rebook with Rique again :)”
“Brenda and her family provided Edgar with a loving and enriched environment while we were out of town. They took him on walks and sent us photos daily. They made sure to mention concerns with his eating habits, and luckily they were able to get him to eat! We got Edgar back happy and well exercised. Overall highly recommend, we’ll likely be using them for our next trip!”
“Jorge is great! Very caring, attentive, and mindful about Maya’s needs: playing, exercise meds. He also makes sure we Are informed about how she is doing while in his care. He takes in only a few dogs at a time, and has a wonderful backyard for them to play. Highly recommend”
“We have trusted Yang to care for our dog Remy several times and we are so pleased with the care he receives! When we drop him off he is so happy to see Yang. We get daily updates from Yang and he is very prompt to reply. Thank you for taking such good care of our pup!”
“Elva is great. She took good care of my dog and is very responsive. She genuinely cares about the wellbeing of pets and I would always go back to her if I need someone who I can trust to look after my dog.”
