Pet Sitting Verdugo Mountains

“Ru was so patient with Jake and he trusted her pretty quickly even though he’s a shy guy. I know he will trust her even more each time she watches him in the future!”

“Jacquie was wonderful!! Very communicative, and such a big help. My cat immediately was comfortable with her and it seemed like they had a good time together! Will be rebooking and highly recommend her with any furry friend.”

About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. As a little kid, I would spend hours at my aunt’s house playing with her dogs — my mom would even have to come call me so I’d finally go home! Growing up, I had many different types of pets, but the one thing I always dreamed of having was a dog of my own. I begged my parents for years, and when I finally got my first dog at 13 years old, he instantly became my whole world. From a very young age, I was always the person friends and family trusted with their pets. I watched a friend’s cat while they were away and even cared for my school’s bunny for an entire day! Later on, when I moved to Sydney, Australia, I volunteered at an animal rescue center and spent the next 10 years pet sitting for both dogs and cats — something I truly loved and felt very passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I recently lost my own beloved senior dog, so I deeply understand the gentle, specialized care, and massive amount of love older pets need in their golden years. Because of this, I’m incredibly comfortable monitoring their comfort, administering medication, and making sure they feel entirely safe and relaxed while you are away. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. <3 Since I’m currently home full-time, I have a super flexible schedule with plenty of open availability Monday through Sunday, so I can easily fit into your pet's regular daily routine without a problem. Whether you need a consistent daily walker while you're at work, or last-minute drop-in visits because something popped up, I’m around and ready to step in whenever you need an extra hand." In Your Home: When I come by for drop-ins or to pick up your dog, I treat your home with total respect. I always make sure doors are securely locked, keys are safely stored, and your home is exactly how you left it. Plus, I love giving cats and dogs lots of love, refreshing their water, and making sure they are comfy before I leave. Out on Walks: Safety is everything when we are out on an adventure. I always keep dogs securely on-leash, stay highly aware of our surroundings, and steer clear of any unpredictable situations or unfamiliar dogs. Keeping You Posted: I know how hard it is to be away, so I always send a quick update and some cute photos during or right after my visit. You'll never have to wonder how they are doing!

About: Expect a happy pet on your return. :) I have plenty of energy to play with your dog or cat. Get your pup the fresh air and exercise it deserves! Get your cat the attention they deserve. I have been pet-sitting for the past 6 years, mostly taking care of a shitzu and a pug, and recently, I have been gradually training a corgi to stop leash pulling. It has been very rewarding watching his behavior improve in and out of the house. I'm available weekdays, weekends, holidays, and odd hours and can spend all day with your pet or take it for frequent bathroom breaks if need be. I freelance and work part time so I have lots of availability for providing pet care to your dog or cat when given at least a few days notice. I will make sure your indoor only pets stay that way by being careful with entrances, and always leash or harness dogs before going for out for bathroom walks outside.

“Jacky took great care of our cat while we were away on vacation. Her detailed visit cards and photos helped us relax knowing our cat was in good hands while out of town. We definitely would recommend Jacky and plan to book with her again when we travel next.”

About: All dogs have different personalities and I enjoy getting to know each one. I’ve been trusted to dogsit for friends and family over the years and for our time together I definitely treat them as if they’re my own. My time is flexible and I’m available most days of the week. I have a part-time job that has a varied schedule but I’m always open to communicate time slots that could work for both our schedules. I do my best to keep a keen eye on the whereabouts and curiosities the pet may get into. I make sure that I stay on track for any dietary conditions that are provided and if approved, give treats when necessary.

“Delaney was great! She saved me in a pinch and became fast friends with my pooch. She is reliable and trustworthy and an overall great pet sitter. I will hire her again!”

About: From working at the animal shelter, to returning a lost dog home, I love helping creatures big and small. I’ve always had the drive to make the lives, of people and animals alike, better through offering my time, knowledge, experience and a helping hand. In the summer of 2024 I had the opportunity to work alongside trained professionals at the animal shelter and witness the consideration and care that goes into animal care-taking. I was able to also work with smaller kittens, bunnies, alongside dogs from an assortment of sizes and breeds. From 2018-2023 my grandmother lived with my family; we were the caregivers. Especially during covid, I stepped up to help with more responsibilities concerning my grandmother. I learned so much patience and also so much about what a blessing it is to have the ability to care for others. I so deeply appreciate the opportunities I have to share a little bit of life with creatures of every kind:) I currently have no job, however I am applying for part-time positions. Along with that I do pursue performing arts so I set aside time for that accordingly. Having 4 dogs and a cat at home only supports my motivation to care for more animals. I have a lot of availability through the summer and possibly the fall. Weekly it varies but I will communicate any and all time changes. I have 4 dogs that are all friendly, and I’d keep them separate from any of your fur-babies just to ensure a smooth time. Our cat has yet to interact with another cat, but she seldom approaches the dogs. We are well equipped with dry food and doggie supplies. If any dietary restrictions are necessary I will adhere. When in the house of a client, I always ask lots of questions and make a shared notes tab. I will also make a group chat if desired by the client. I tend to tidy up the environment given, and if there are desires to keep things completely unchanged I have no problem with that.

About: There is nothing more joyful than creating that special bond with the dogs I get to walk, or the cats I look after. I have 4 years of dog walking experience and only want to do more and more! I love taking them on walks, playing fetch, rewarding them with treats, and spending time outdoors! They will feel safe and loved when under my care, as well as get all of their energy out! I am a full-time student as well as working 2 part-time jobs at my school, but I have a lot of flexibility! I am responsible, reliable, and trustworthy! I made my entire apartment cat-proof, as well as dog-proof, even though I only have one cat at the moment. I make sure they have their free space to play, and that they feel safe and loved.

“Grateful Corey was available for a last minute pop-in when we both had to work late. He's reliable, and mostly importantly, the dogs love him.”

“Victoria was awesome looking after my dad’s cat Shiva! She was very communicative during her visits and followed my instructions well. Shiva is a bit of a difficult cat with some aggression towards new people but Victoria was able to handle everything that was thrown her way. It was nice to have my mind at ease knowing Shiva was well looked after.”

About: I have a few clients I dog sit and dog walk for, in addition to having cat sitting experience. I grew up having pet cats for decades. I love animals! Interacting with them feeds my soul. I think cats and dogs can sense how happy I am to be around them plus how much I love them, making it easy and fulfilling to form bonds. I’ve worked with shy cats and dogs too, and enjoy patiently and gently winning them over. My clients have been a German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Husky, senior Beagle, Australian Cattle Dog, small to medium dogs and I am a lover of all breeds. I also have experience with kittens to senior cats. Volunteering at Kitten Rescue LA, I socialize with various breeds, ages and personalities. It’s also fun to meet pet parents and connect with the community. Currently, I’m going to school part-time. I love the opportunity to take care of and spend time with your furry family members when my schedule allows. I love giving attention to and caring for dogs and cats. Will accommodate routines you have in place and give you updates with photos via text or the Rover app.

About: Trust your beloved pets to a mature, responsible adult. I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. I am a successful business owner and I work out of my home, in close proximity to downtown Glendale, CA. Please Note: We can only accept one dog per visit. Each visiting dog may arrive with a bed, blanket, toys or anything else you think necessary for them to enjoy a sense of stability and security. Each day, we'll send updates, pictures and videos to assure you that all is well with your pet. Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.

“Niki was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs during her two drop-in visits! From the beginning, her communication was clear and responsive. She was very accommodating when I asked for a meet and greet beforehand, and her sweet, friendly spirit instantly put us—and our pups—at ease. She arrived right on time for each visit, followed all our instructions perfectly, and treated our home with respect. Most importantly, she gave our dogs lots of love and attention. We’re so grateful to have found her and would happily book her again!”

About: Over the years I have taken care of my family, friends and of course my own animals. I have had experience with a majority of dog breeds. I have taken care & bottle fed puppies and kittens and given medication to dogs. When I am caring for your fur family, I will follow your schedule and any commands you may be trying to teach. I am kind, patient, caring and will keep your pup safe and happy. I love walking, playing, and will show your pup lots of love. My senior dog can’t play much any more so I would love to have some awesome dogs I can walk, play with, and keep company awhile you are away. I work two jobs, so your pup may be alone between four to six hours but I ALWAYS keep families updated with my schedule and of course lots of pictures. I currently do not provide care in my home. So I always follow your house rules. I make sure not only is your animals safe and cared for but also your home.
