“Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!”

I feel so lucky to have found the best care for my dog, and I will definitely use their services again!”

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.”
“Renata was so caring and patient with my dog who was a little nervous being away from me for the first time. She updated me a lot and sent a lot of pictures as well. Definitely will be asking for her services again!”

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for cats. My responsibilities have included feeding, grooming, administering medication, and providing plenty of playtime and affection. I'm comfortable with cats of all ages and temperaments, from playful kittens to shy seniors, and I'm adept at recognizing and responding to their individual needs.
“I always have Jaimie sit for my 2 cats. She and her partner are the best with pictures and updates. Highly recommend for sitter on your next time away from home. Happy trails!!”
About: I've taken care of cats for as long as I remember, I used to foster with my mom. I would take in any kittens or cats in need, even the sick ones. I have saved the lives of many unfortunate fur babies. I have even had to play the roles as a mama to a few babies. I have taken care of many cats at once, and have loved every single one of them as my own.
About: Hi! I’m Alexis. I’ve been around cats my entire life and currently have 5 of my own, so I understand all the different personalities they can have—from super cuddly lap cats to the independent ones who act like they don’t care (but secretly do). I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and comfortable, especially when their owners are away. I always take my time with them and let them come to me on their own terms. Whether your cat wants playtime, treats, gentle attention, or just someone to sit nearby and keep them company, I’m happy to match their energy. I also have experience caring for cats with medical needs and giving medications when needed, so I’m comfortable following detailed instructions and routines if your cat requires a little extra care. My goal is simple: to make sure your cat feels calm, cared for, and stress-free while you’re away—and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’ll treat your cat like one of my own, with patience, love, and lots of respect for their space and personality.
“Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)”
About: Your cat will be wrapped in love every second they’re with me! 🐾🐱 I care for every kitty like they’re part of my own family—with gentle attention, cozy cuddle sessions (if they’re into that!), playtime, and all the love their heart can hold. 💕 With over 2 years of professional experience at a pet boarding facility and more than a decade of rescuing and raising animals, I’m confident caring for cats of all ages and personalities. At home, I’m a proud cat parent to a sassy feline who keeps me on my toes as well as three needy pups! so I understand the unique needs of our independent, quirky, and sometimes particular fur babies. Whether your cat is playful, shy, senior, or needs extra TLC, they’ll be in experienced, loving hands with me.💕
About: With Cats I understand the importance of respecting their boundaries and gaining their trust, I am very patient. I had my first cat at 10 years old she was very reserved so I learned to give her the distance she needed. I am 23 and currently have a long haired calico who I accidentally taught to like cold fresh out the fridge water from when I was in a hurry to get to my classes and would give her my drink to fill her bowl before I left. She has long hair that I need to brush daily to prevent matting she has a time limit with brushing so I know when she has had enough and I'll give her the space she needs to ensure her safety and mine. I always make sure her food/water bowl is full when I first wake up in the morning. She loves to nap with me. I have experience cleaning the occasional puke accidents and litter boxes. I have experience bathing, grooming, cutting cat nails, giving oral medication, kitten care such as using a moist napkin/wet wipe to encourage urination from orphaned kittens and bottle feeding. I took animal training classes and have a certificate where they taught how to properly restrain dogs/cats and to be cautious of body language. Each cat is different some are easier to warm up to strangers than others and I am very understanding.
About: I occasionally cat sit on a weekly basis and enjoy building a consistent bond with the cats I care for. When appropriate and if a cat is leash trained or comfortable with car rides, I also offer safe and supervised mini outings to give them enrichment and stimulation outside their usual environment. I have a genuine love for animals and always treat every pet as if they were my own. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine, making sure they feel secure, cared for, and well attended to while their owners are away.
“Rich was fantastic! He took such great care of our babies and kept us updated with photos throughout the stay. We truly appreciated his attentiveness and will definitely be booking him again.”
About: I have been caring for animals since I was 16 years old, starting with small animals and rodents. I got my first dog, Haku, 4 years ago, and I have been obsessed ever since. I have experience with both larger dogs and small dogs, and would love to get to know yours! At the moment, I'm available full time for your pet. I am currently in an online Masters program full time, so I am able to work with your schedule. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they'll be treated as if they are my own. I believe in open and transparent communication, so you'll receive regular updates on your pet's wellbeing while you're away.
About: I’m a proud cat parent to five beautiful kitties and a kitty advocate! My experience ranges from managing my own indoor/outdoor cats to independently rescuing and nursing fragile street kittens back to health using my own resources when I was younger.I know exactly what it takes to earn a cat's trust, keep them healthy, and give them the specific care and attention they need.
“Mayra was great! She met with me before the engagement to meet my dogs and make sure she knew what they needed, and communicated after each walk. Best of all, both of my guys were relaxed and happy to see me without being frantic when I got back. That's the real sign of a great sitter. Will definitely use again.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Pacoima
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Greatly appreciate Brenda, she cares for my Coco on the weekends. She works with my hours which is great since my job is a bit hectic during these days. Coco loves being with her and that is something I’m very grateful for. Will continue bringing her 🙂”
“My pup is always happy and tired when she comes home from Lillybeth’s home! I am always comfortable knowing that my girl is being taken care of and loved. Will continue to trust Lillybeth with my dog!”
“I was looking for a daycare option for my corgi to get used to bigger dogs again after a bad experience with a loose dog. Brasilio gladly did a meet and greet with us and brought his Husky to meet Tucker. He was very laid back with Tucker and very comfortable giving him a chance to get acclimated to his dog. Tucker responded very well so I felt like he’d be in good hands w/ Brasilio. He was also very accommodating when he needed to stay overnight when I had a schedule change and wanted to just pick him up the next day. Tucker has been doing MUCH better with new dog friends thanks to Brasilio!”
About: I’ve had several dogs throughout my life and will probably be getting another one or two within the next year. My main option on here is dog boarding but, depending on the dog boarding schedule, I or somebody else on my team could also be open to do drop ins, house sitting, or walks, especially for those who have already used our boarding services. Please ask about these additional services after a confirmed boarding session. I’m in the middle of taking a few years off from teaching high school because A) Who couldn’t use a break from that? and B) I am focusing on building up a short-term rental business (Airbnb mostly). As an Airbnb host I spend a lot of time at home and have found that one of my favorite things to do is play with dogs in the yard (especially, when there’s more than one of them here at the same time!) and take them on trips to the park. I love dogs and am very reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I live in a house with a fenced yard and all of the instructions you leave will be followed to keep your little buddy happy & safe! I am home most of the day and when I do leave it's usually only for an hour or two at a time. Most of what I do at home (working on a computer, household chores, yard work) I do in the presence of whatever dogs happen to be staying at that time. One limitation that I do try to stick to is to avoid scheduling drop-offs or pickups on Sundays before 10:00 am. Unfortunately, Rover doesn't give me the option to block off those times without blocking out the entire day so adding this note here is the only way to give you a heads up (hopefully, you read this before booking). I have a fenced yard and usually board 2 or 3 dogs at a time so that they have playmates. If ever I leave the house, dogs are left inside. Dogs that stay here must be up to date on shots as well as on a flea-prevention medication.
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs, including my own as well as the pets of family and friends. During this time, I’ve helped with feeding, playtime, and daily walks, while ensuring that each pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make it a priority to give them the attention, patience, love, care, and treats they deserve. I’m currently working from home and off on weekends which allows me to give pets plenty of time and attention. I’m also able to walk them throughout the day for regular walks and playtime. My home provides a safe and welcoming envoronment for pets. I have a gated front yard and spacious backyard with plenty of room to run around, play, and explore safely. I also have a senior dog who is very easygoing and enjoys the company of other dogs. Lastly, I’m more than happy to accommodate each dogs needs and routines.
“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.”
“We were visiting LA and required a last minute sitter due to the hot weather. Edwin and his family were quick to respond and accepted Java last minute! Edwin and his family were so great! We got the updates that we wanted throughout the day and Java looked like she was having fun. Java was spoiled during her stay and even received some homemade dinner. We would definitely recommend you leave your pet with them and we would if we are back in the area.”
“Bernadette took great care of Wensley. He seemed really content when I picked him up, and I appreciated her flexibility as far as drop off time. She's a great communicator and kept me posted with pictures. I will definitely be using Bernadette again for Wensley's future doggy daycare needs. Also, he loved the extra little doggy treats Bernadette had made. Such a great little surprise.”
“Katherine and Earl are our go-to people for our energetic dog Nixon!! I get sent out of town for work last minute and they almost always save the day. Our dog loves it there and the updates are hilarious and adorable. Would recommend them to anyone!!”
“It was a awesome first experience for my golden retriever. Laura nad brian genuinely love dogs and enjoy taking care of them. They keep you updated how your dog is doing and they send you pictures. will definitely bring my dog back.”
“Lauren was great. She met me before hand so I could intro our dogs, sent lots of pics of my pup, and walked her twice. She was great. I would book her again.”
About: I've owned and cared for dogs since childhood! I love small and large breeds and have experience with puppies and elderly dogs. All are loved in my home. Hey! I'm Nicole — a North Hollywood homeowner with a big fenced yard, lots of outdoor space, and a maltipoo puppy named Arff who'll happily show your doggy around. I also have a six year old who will happily spend time with your dog if they enjoy children! I work from home and all dogs are genuinely part of the family here, meaning your dog sleeps inside, hangs out with us, and gets real attention — not crate time. I keep things small on purpose: I host up to two guest dogs at a time so I can give full attention to your pet. Whether your dog is a puppy figuring things out or a senior who just wants a soft couch and some sunshine, they'll be comfortable here. We can also accommodate dogs that need a little extra space and a quiet setting. Just let us know what would be best!
“She was lovely and very understanding. My dog usually has a hard time playing with other dogs or even going with other people but she had no problem and Mason looked happy.”
“Maria and her daughter as so incredibly sweet, kind and supportive. It was my first visit & they made me feel very comfortable and gave me updates. Communication was great!”
“Aida was great! Shes very caring about our dog Nicos well being! He is a naturally nervous puppy, but she works with him to get him out of his shell! Shes responsive and communicates throughout the day! Am booking again as we speak!”
“Ashley was great with my puppy. Constant communication, updates and pictures definitely made me feel very comfortable as this was my first time using this service. Highly recommend”
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: I’m a true dog lover and treat every dog like part of my family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I currently have Olive, my 4-year-old Boston Terrier, and Chewy, my 14-year-old Shih Tzu, so I understand both energetic playtime and gentle senior care. My home is calm, safe, and full of love, and I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I provide personalized attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

Your dog will stay in a loving home with a secure backyard for supervised outdoor time and play. I have two dogs of my own, Olive, my energetic and playful Boston Terrier, and Chewy, a sweet senior Shih Tzu. Because Olive loves to play and has a high-energy personality, I prefer meet-and-greets beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable and a good fit.

I’m an independent jewelry designer and founder of my brand so my schedule is flexible and can work around pretty much any schedule. My weekends and holidays are open as well.

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and commitment that pets need every day. If you know me, you know I’m the person who gets excited every time I see a dog on a walk or a cat lounging outside. I’m always the first one asking if I can pet a dog, and I never pass by a stray animal without trying to make sure it has food, water, or a little kindness. My love for animals is genuine, and spending time with them never feels like a job to me. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for my own pets when they’ve been sick. Whenever one of my cats or dogs needed medication, special care, or extra attention, I was usually the one making sure they got what they needed. Because of this, I’m comfortable following care instructions and being patient with pets who may need a little extra support. In addition to my experience with animals, I work in healthcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to pay attention to details, follow routines, and provide quality care—skills that I bring with me when caring for pets as well. I’m often the go-to pet sitter for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work night shift, which means my days are usually free and very flexible. Because of that, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to walking, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets during the day. I actually love that my schedule allows me to be fully present when I’m caring for animals—I’m not rushing between work or distracted by a 9–5 schedule. I can give pets my full attention, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. My routine also makes it easy for me to be consistent and reliable with scheduling. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and working odd hours, so I’m very organized and good at sticking to care instructions and time-sensitive routines. Overall, my flexible daytime availability makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle, and I really enjoy being able to spend that time doing something I genuinely love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep things consistent and familiar for them. I approach every visit with patience and calm energy, letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. Whether it’s feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending quiet time together, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions. If a pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, or special care needs, I make sure everything is done exactly as requested. I have experience administering medications and caring for pets with extra medical needs, so I’m comfortable handling those responsibilities with care and reliability. While I’m in the home, I also make sure everything stays clean, respectful, and as you left it. My goal is not only to care for your pet, but to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands and your home is being respected. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—always with love, patience, and attention to their unique personality.

I am currently in an online Masters program full time, so I am able to work with your schedule. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they'll be treated as if they are my own. I believe in open and transparent communication, so you'll receive regular updates on your pet's wellbeing while you're away.

“Crystalbell was so nice! Oliver loved his awesome walk with her. He was a bit hesitant at first and didn’t want to leave my side. She was very friendly and patient with Oliver. She updated me afterwards and also sent me pics of my baby looking so happy. She even introduced a park I’ve never been to, that’s so close to my house! Definitely will book again next month while I’m on vacation! Thank you!”
About: Hi my name is Amy I am currently enrolled in Animal Behavior College and working on becoming a dog groomer. I have experience with young to senior pets. I am in the process of complete my Pet CPR certification. I understand the occasional pet vomiting accident can happen and I will happily clean up after a sickly pet the priority is always their comfort and health. Throughout my life friends, family, neighbors would have me take care of their pets when they needed help to walk them, groom, bathe or pet-sit. I had the wonderful opportunity to work at a animal rescue for senior dogs recently and it’s been life changing. I am currently working part time at a animal rescue and have a very flexible schedule. I am available on the weekdays and the weekend. Growing up I had a variety of pets from dogs, cats, birds, chickens, turtles, and even a possum at some point. I got my first dog at 6 years old, I would ask my dad everyday after work for a dog until one day he came home with a puppy in his hands and my love for animals never faded since. As we grew together I learned to train/groom/walk her. She taught me the importance of being patient. I am currently 23 and I have had a variety of pets since. I use to volunteer at a pet shop, took animal care classes at a animal shelter, and I currently work at a nonprofit for animal rescue where senior dogs are rescued.
About: Hello, my name is Mayra Esparza. I have 8 years of personal experience working with dogs and about 1 year of professional experience. Currently I am an employee at a doggie daycare in Studio City where I look after about 40-60 large dogs on a daily basis. As a doggie daycare attendant I am in charge of feeding all our doggies (while following all feeding instuctions given by the owner), cleaning up after them, administering all oral and topical medications, and most importantly looking after the well being of all the doggies. I am extremely lucky to have the opportunity to work with dogs on a daily basis. Everyday I get to see how loving, funny, and intelligent dogs are. I love the bonds I have grown with so many of the doggies I see on a regular basis, and I truly cannot wait to form a bond with your doggie as well.
About: I've always had a passion for dogs and animals in general. Dogs are so sweet and loveable! I got my first when I was about 10 years of age so I have at least 15 years of experience with dogs and you can trust me with taking good care of them. Now I have two little doggies named Molly and Lulu who I love taking for walks and I'd love the opportunity to walk more of your dogs. I know sometimes we're all a little too busy to have time for certain things and I'd like to help in any way possible,even if it's just taking your dog for a nice little walk. Dogs are nothing but loveable and happy so I'd love to be around that each and every day!

“Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!”

“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.”
