“Shellie gave my husky so much love I am forever grateful! I have a 6 year old Siberian Husky with pretty bad separation anxiety. She went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable. She sent me updates (pictures, videos, ext.) that made it easy for me to know he was in good hands. Thank you Shellie!!”
“Ricardo was really great with accommodating and caring for our 2 kittens! He helped set everything up and updated us throughout their stay with him. He even groomed them and made sure to spend quality play time with them as well.”
“Rainey stayed overnight with Jessica and her family while we attended a concert in New Orleans over the Memorial Day weekend. They took wonderful care of her and Rainey loved playing with their dog, Stella. They were very accommodating when it came to drop off and pick-up, especially with it being a holiday.”
“Madison did a fantastic job with our dachshund, Dax! She kept us updated, sent us pictures, and she was very nice and easy to work with. We highly recommend her services if you’re ever in need!”

“Desiree did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was away for a work trip, and made sure that he was well fed and played with. She was very communicative and sent lots of great pictures! I would be happy to have her as a sitter again in the future. 😺”
“We’re so grateful to Alexis for taking such wonderful care of Levi while we were away. As an older dog, he needs a bit of extra patience and understanding, and she provided exactly that. If you’re searching for someone trustworthy to look after your pet, she’s the one. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again in the future.”
About: I have grown up with cats my entire life and even have one of my own! As a cat owner, I know how nerve wracking it can be to leave your baby with someone you barely know. With 4 years of animal handling experience and zoo keeping for 1, I am very comfortable with administering medications and working with anxious animals!
About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart! I have a cat who is a senior right now, and I always make sure he’s as comfortable as possible. I understand that every cat has their very own unique personality, whether they’re playful and outgoing or prefer a quiet space and gentle companionship. I’m happy to follow your cat’s normal routine, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, brushing, applying any medication needed, and simply keeping them company while you’re away. I know how important it is to earn a cat’s trust, and I always let them approach at their own pace. I’ll also send plenty of photo updates so you can see how your kitty is doing and feel connected while you’re away!
About: I’m available most mornings and evenings! My main job is working in a lab, but I like doing Rover on the side. I have a miniature pinscher at home, so I’m very experienced with big and small dogs, but especially the little and high energy ones! Finally getting back into this after a long break because of school 😊 I currently work PRN and like to use pet setting as a side gig and a way to fill my free time since I tend to work on the off shifts. During walks I like to make sure the collar and leash are secure to ensure no mishaps. I am overly cautious of my surroundings, especially when another dog comes along our path. If your dog doesn’t get along well with other pups I make every effort to redirect them such as switching sides of the street or giving a slight tug on the leash to go the other way.
“Alex did drop-in visits at our home while my husband and I were away on our trip. He was always on time and spent ample time and attention to our dog Peaches for all 30 visits we had him. He also did a great job of communicating throughout. Peaches really loved him! I would highly recommend Alex and will definitely request him for our next trip!”
About: I have been a dog lover and owner all my life. Getting outside and getting plenty of exercise is something I consider to be especially important. I enjoy taking long walks and playing catch, chase and tug-o-war with all kinds of puppies. Need a sitter or just a quick walk? I can even bathe your puppy if necessary. I am looking forward to sharing my time and helping out with your fur baby! Have a blessed day!
“Ricardo was really great with accommodating and caring for our 2 kittens! He helped set everything up and updated us throughout their stay with him. He even groomed them and made sure to spend quality play time with them as well.”
About: Whether it was taking care of my childhood cat, roommate's' cats, or getting paid to hang with one for a friend or a stranger, I am a lover and friend to all cats I meet. I know how to interact with all types of cat personalities and will give your little bestie(s) calm and loving attention while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of so many dogs since I was younger, so many have relied on me, and trusted me with their dogs and having to deal with walks, feedings, medications (mostly oral meds). I have such a huge passion for dog care and love spending time with so many fur babies at my previous job at a doggy daycare. I have about 3 years and 8 months of hands on experience in the dog field. Reading body language, training and much more.I treat everyone’s furry babies as if they were my own. I have recently relocated into a new state and so everything is new for me here! But I’m happy to meet all these new furry friends and show all the care I have for each. I’m currently unemployed so my schedule is pretty open. I’m here whenever you need me! Is basically my motto as of right now! I’m here to care. I have two fur babies of my own one being a 4 year old lab retriever mix he is very socialized and can keep your fur baby or babies company if they are well enough with other dogs. Can always bring him on walks with us or to come and visit and play or stay with. I also provide adventures. But with my services I can provide in home care, overnight care and or drop ins. And as said walks! Whatever you need I will go above and beyond to make sure everything you need is done!
About: Since I was five we’ve had cats. My first cat was a mean black tux named binx. I loved him with a passion and he’s now resting after about 14 years. Today I live with my three angels biscuit,peanut, and jam. They’re six I got them around 4-6 months old and they’re the sweetest. I always wonder why but not to sound shameless I think they’re so loving bc I raised them with love.

About: Hey guys, my names Trey :) I’ve taken care of animals of every breed/size. Growing up, my parents always allowed me to have animals. I had dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigs, horses, rats, and reptiles. As you can see, I don’t discriminate on what animal you may have and all are welcomed here! At 15, I had my first job as a dog groomer. I was in charge of grooming, kennel upkeep, walking, and boarding. I have two dogs, and a bearded dragon who are spoiled with unconditional love. Currently working full time from home, so I’d have plenty of time to watch over your fur babies. I keep up with posting dates that im available, if there’s a day open I’ll be all yours! I have a fenced in yard with enough room for them to run around and release some energy. I have two dogs, who are extremely sweet and gets along with others. They’d love to have a friend around.. possible to keep them separate as well. Also have my own vehicle, so picking up and bringing your buddy to parks is no problem. I’m able to tailor to your pets needs and get accustomed to their daily schedule. While your animal is in my care, I’ll follow up with text and photos to keep your mind at peace :).

About: I have been able to attend basic, intermediate, and advanced bog training classes with our family fur baby. I have experience taking care of dogs, cats, and other small animals including Guinea Pigs, birds, and fish.

Playing, walking, feeding, and having fun. I also have experience giving doggie baths and bandaging bobos. But mostly I love hanging with my fur babies!

About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.
About: I’ve been taking care of my animals and others’ animals from a young age. I have a range of experience- with puppies and kittens, administering medication, unique personalities, special needs, and more. Whether its a high energy dog or a nervous and shy cat or anything in between, I have seen it all! I am flexible and willing to help in any way I can! Currently not boarding at the moment since I am moving into a new space soon. I can go home for lunch during the week and am free all evenings and weekends. Since I am in the process of moving to a new space, I am not boarding at the moment. I am usually available for boarding on weeknights after 4p and full days on the weekends. Your pet is my priority whether I am at your place or mine. When staying at your place, I will always try to leave it neater than when I came across it. Whether its replacing batteries in your ring camera or letting the service man come in, I am available to help you in anyway you need when something unexpected occurs while you're out. Any animals staying at my home are made to feel comfortable and safe; my home becomes their home!
About: I’ve always adored pets since I was young. I’ve had many in my life from cats,dogs,and rodents. I know animals are equal beings that need treatment with special accommodations. This requires patience which is almost unlimited for me.i currently have three cats that I’ve owned since they were 3-4 months old they’re now 6. I just got rats a few weeks ago they’re girls 6-8 months old. I believe everything follows a routine dedicated to them and I have no issue aligning myself to these routines. I’m still finishing high school at the moment and I have a job. But besides managing those I’m available weekdays after 4 if I’m not scheduled to work, weekends any time I keep my babies inside as much as possible. They’re allowed to free roam outside since they’re used to that lifestyle from before. They wear flee collars, jam is allergic. I cleanse them with daily grooming and anima safe wipes or soap if necessary. They’re fed 2-3 a day with half a cup or less of cat food I do plan to change their diets eventually. When it comes to other people’s pets I treat them with nothing but love and care and always stay considerate of whatever the owner says I should know about that animal. I’m extremely against cruelty brand products so I will avoid associating or using them.
