House Sitting in Van Nuys, Los Angeles

“Tayler was flexible, understanding and communicative as we were setting up a very unique pet sitting opportunity. When she came to do a quick meet and greet with Rocky, our sheepadoodle, he took an immediate liking to her and we felt reassured as we left him in a new city in a place that was our home. We would definitely use her again if we visit LA and stay in a close by neighborhood. She is a gem!!”

“Great personality. She cares and love dogs , you can tell. Amazing with Kara.”

“Gabriella did a wonderful job taking care of our dog while we were away. She was very communicative and sent us updated and photos every day.”

“Jen did a short pet sit with our dogs, who unfortunately have stranger phobia. She tried really hard and we really appreciated her attempts to win them over. She communicated amazingly well throughout the stay.”

“Tim has supported me in watching dogs and cats in the past with my own business on Rover. Tim has a great vibe and attention to detail that makes him an ideal sitter for you fur-babies when leaving on trips or during the long work day.”

“Jason was a wonderful caregiver to my 5yr 6mo old, english cream golden retriever, Jace! He prioritized him, making sure to follow his schedule, and keeping me updated over the entire length of his overnight, even going as far as to inform me of every visit and listing exactly what he was doing with Jace. He provided 2 pictures daily (per my original request), and was always happy to provide more! He treated Jace as if he were his own, keeping him company, providing him at least 2 daily walks, giving him his benadryl, even staying with him when Jace became anxious from the fireworks. I love that he didn't hesitate to ask me questions in the best interest of my dog. He kept my home neat and clean, and honestly I felt so comfortable leaving Jace with him that I woke up every morning feeling relieved to know my dog was taken care of while I was states away in a blizzard. I will absolutely be hiring him again. Communication: 10/10 Adaptability: 10/10 Walking: 10/10* Pricing: Reasonable; as expected over the holidays Overall Care: 10/10 *My dog is a puller and avid squirrel chaser”

“Laura was wonderful! She took great care of our pets and house. The pics she sent us of our pups were heartwarming and our house was in excellent hands. I would recommend her and rebook her!”

“Colleen is everything you would want out of a caretaker. There are many highly qualified professionals out there—what sets Colleen apart is the love and attention she showers your pet with when they are under her watch. I used to feel guilty for leaving my dog with a stranger when taking a trip ,but with Colleen I know they’re spending time with a trusted friend.”

“Meredith is a godsend! She's great with my two dogs and one cat. Takes perfect care of them. It feels so good and reassuring to know they're looked after so well when I'm out of town. I look forward to having her look after my pet family again!”

“I had the pleasure of entrusting my beloved furry companion to Jess for two weeks, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the care and attention she provided. From the moment I dropped off my dog, I knew I had made the right choice. Jess's love for animals was immediately evident, and it put my mind at ease. Throughout the entire time, Jess went above and beyond in caring for my dog. She ensured that all of his needs were met, from feeding and exercise to plenty of playtime and cuddles. I received regular updates with photos and videos, which not only reassured me but also allowed me to see just how happy and content my dog was in Jess's care. What truly sets Jess apart is her dedication and genuine love for animals. She treated my dog as if he were her own, and I could tell that he formed a special bond with her during his stay. It's clear that Jess is not just a pet sitter but a true animal lover who takes her responsibilities seriously. I can't express my gratitude enough to Jess for her outstanding service and the peace of mind she gave me while I was away. If you're looking for someone who will care for your pet with the same love and attention that you do, Jess is the person to trust. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of a pet sitter, and I will definitely be booking her services again in the future. Thank you, Jess, for being an amazing friend to both me and my dog!”

About: I have cared for young pups and old dogs, high energy and low energy dogs. Also cared for cats and kittens. Dog training not offered. I am available from Sunday through Friday. I have availability most days out of the week except for Saturdays, because on these days I work. I unfortunately cannot host pets, but I am ready and available to drive anywhere within a 20 mile radius of my home and to stay overnight.

“Bianca was awesome and a great pup sitter while we were gone. She gave us regular updates and photos. We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Will book again with her.”

“Liza was absolutely awesome! She sent me tons of updates with photos and videos. I could tell that Mochi was well taken care of because when I came back, he was relaxed and tired. For a higher energy dog, that’s a tough thing to do! Will absolutely be booking with Liza again.”

“Caroline is so sweet and helpful! She took great care of both of my dogs, sent us pictures and videos during the weekend she stayed at the house and took care of them. She's super friendly and you can tell really loves dogs. I look forward to having her take care of our pups again in the future.”

“Sarah is the most responsible, organized, and caring house & animal sitter, and also just a generally wonderful human. She has stayed for extended (multi-month) periods at my apartment and taken excellent care of my two cats and the space. One of my cats can be a little cranky/mouthy and the other cat rebelled against her litter box for several months, and Sarah was incredibly patient and thoughtful with their quirks, and helped me to brainstorm solutions where we could. She's also open to discussing above-and-beyond help with things like coordinating for repairs or big deliveries, and will have a conversation with you around rates based on what you need. I had some maintenance and redecoration work done while I was gone - including a leaky skylight pane that she spotted in time to avoid water damage - and it was invaluable to have Sarah there to coordinate things like workman access, on the ground, when needed. TL;DR, My cats love her, I love her, and I would enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust entirely with their animals and home.”

“Sami is our go-to person for both our dog and our cat. She's great with both of them - play time, feeding, medications, etc. She also sends lots of photos and our dog is clearly excited to see her. Highly, highly recommend!”

“I love working with Giselle because she’s reliable, caring, loving and super fun! My sweet Oliver loves her and gets so happy when she comes.”

“My mom be a great with animals including sick with medical problems and have to take medication. My mom she can walk dogs as long as they don't pull too hard. My mom enjoys being with animals working with animals is her compassion,loving , and caring for. Me and my mom both baby sit dogs and cats through friends and by volunteering at the animal shelter part time.”

“Adrianna, cares for ones pet. She is very accomadating to ones needs with their pets.”

“Lily is my pups second mom! That’s what we call her, second mom! She takes care of my large, unruly dogs with care, boundaries and pure LOVE. Highly recommend for dog park outings, walks and sleepovers.”
