Pet Sitting Verdugo Viejo

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.

“Such a kind and thoughtful person. Treated Margot so well and took some really great photos of her to share. I will for sure be using her again.”

“I breathe easy when Alina takes care of my fur babies. A trustworthy sitter that I will use again and again. Can’t recommend her enough! Thank you, Alina!”

About: I work from home and am home full time, 24/7! I’ll be a friend and playmate to all fur babies! I have experience with pets with separation anxiety so I totally get how they need all day love! Live in a duplex house with an extra room for all the furries and a huge living room with dog beds all over! AND, drumroll please… a HUGE backyard: awesome 6ft fence, with full natural grass yard and a small flower garden for all the smells. I’d love to have your pets over for a paw-ty while you are away, or pick them up for a walk on the way to the parks! I love taking pets to new parks for sniffs and if we have to drive, every pup gets a seatbelt! And a free bath if we end up getting a little rowdy and dirty while in nature hehe! I’ve taken care of various small to medium sized dogs for the last 15 years, from bichon, Havanese, poodle, chihuahua, Dalmatians, to Huskies! Even some furry cat friends! I love all things furry and have a fluffy baby of my own. I have experience with senior dogs who need medicine, diaper care, or those pups with special needs like assistance walking or going to the restroom, as I did those with my senior baby before he passed. My husband also has a hybrid schedule so there is always an extra set of eyes and an pup parent for love and cuddles! For any elderly dogs or dogs who can’t walk too far but love the fresh air, we have our large fenced yard and I also have 2 dog strollers to make sure they still feel safe and part of the dog pack! Safety is the MOST important to me so I have separated feeding areas and additional baby gates for the doors. Because of this, all unleashed play will occur in our fenced yard and we won’t be visiting any dog parks so I appreciate your understanding on this!! Neighbors, friends, family, and roommates have all entrusted me to watch over their loved ones and we’ve always had fun, safe, and silly times together! I can walk, feed, bathe and play with your fur babies and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I’m big on pet action videos and pictures so if you want those as a pet parent I’m at your service! I love to cater to each pet parent and pet’s needs through their little staycation oasis. I’m fully remote and work from home so your pups will have a friend 24/7 if you wanted! Daily routines include wake up cuddles and kisses, morning, lunch, and dinner walks. More cuddles and kisses, lots of toys for playtime! Lots of beds for sleepies, a large fenced yard for play chase or fetch and separate areas for eating! Oh yeah, and more cuddles, kisses, photos and videos in-between! I will always have your dog on leash when we go for walks or in an enclosed yard if they need to be let out or just fed with a companion. I love taking pups to large grassy fields and in that case I have a few 25 ft leashes so the pups can “run free” but won’t be able to run away and if I have multiple pets, I would have my husband there to also help monitor the pup play!

About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.

“Caroline is wonderful! My cat is very shy and hides from everyone. But Caroline really connected with my cat, and I have photos of kitty cuddles and playtime everyday that I’ve only ever witnessed with me. Will definitely hire her again.”

“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”

About: I have pets of my own. I see pets as part of family so the care I provide is same as for my fuzzy love bugs, lots of luv and snuggles and maybe some extra treats if permitted ;) I know what’s it like to be away from your fuzzy friends so I will provide regular updates if you wish so. Available on weekdays/ weekends- mostly flexible schedule. Can stay overnight if needed, available on holidays. Can stop by for short time to check on your pets, play with them and feed them. I am available to stop by, walk/feed and care for your dogs or cats. I am also available to stay overnight if you are traveling and need full time care for your pets.

About: I adopted my first own dog in 2012 and cared for him until he passed of old age in 2024. He was a half English half American bulldog. Now I have a French bulldog, an 8‑year‑old cat and a guinea pig. I understand dog and cat behavior and routines really well. Friends and family have trusted me for years to feed, walk, and give meds to their pets and I treat every pet like part of my family. I understand the true purpose of walks for dogs and always let them take their time sniffing and exploring so they feel mentally stimulated and relaxed. I’m a full-time stay-at-home mom, so I’m home most of the day and available any time, any day. I’m used to juggling different feeding, walking, and playtime schedules, and your pet will get lots of attention and company throughout the day. I follow your feeding, walking, and crate routines so they feel safe and consistent. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with seniors and more nervous pets, and I always keep a close eye on them to make sure they’re comfortable and secure.

“I always feel confident leaving my senior diabetic cat in Tamar’s care. She administers his insulin without issue, makes sure he eats and is cared for while I’m gone. He loves her too ❤️10/10 recommend Tamar!!”

“Neha came more than asked and sent lots of photos and videos of our pup while we were away”

About: From hamsters and lizards, to cats and dogs, I have been a devoted pet parent (and aunt) my whole life. I absolutely adore my Shiba Inu and treat her like the princess she is. I would be honored by the opportunity to walk or hang out with your dog and provide anything they might need. I have experience with training as well as pet-sitting and checking in on dogs of friends and family. I am currently a freelancer and work from home. I can be available with short notice mornings, afternoons, and sometimes evenings. Just let me know and we can work something out (: I live in a home with a fully fenced yard. My dog loves to play out back and on the front lawn. There's plenty of room indoors as well.

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. We can board up to two dogs at one time, but they must be from the same family home. I am a successful small business owner and I work out of my home. I live within convenient probity proximity to downtown Glendale and the 134 freeway. 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. If requested, we're happy to 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.

“This is my third time using Sorn as my cat sitter. She is wonderful and reliable. It makes such a difference to leave home and not have to worry about your furry family members. Thank you, Sorn!”

About: I had a Siberian Husky that I cared for for about 8 years. I love the comfort and fun that animals bring, and since my parents won’t allow me to have my own pet I would love to share my love of animals with other’s pets. I have experiencing walking, feeding, bathing and caring for dogs. I am rather active so longer walks are no problem and even desired! I think animals deserve to be out in nature, and enjoy themselves most when they’re there. I think that with my passion for animals, the pets that I take care of will be more than happy with their care taker. I provide lots of cuddles, playing, and overall just a good time for the pet and I!

About: When I come to California, I occasionally take care of my friend’s dogs. I visit at home, walk, feed, take to myself during the day or night. I also want to keep your pet company. I’m part-time student and online worker. Absolutely unavailable until 12pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I can adjust my schedule to accommodate our meeting on other days. I have a 2-floors loft apartment and fenced yard for dogs on my roof top. Every day I walk for 2 hours in Glendale neighborhoods, could walk with your pet for pleasure. We have a quite community so why I can't care of difficult special needs dogs. Warn me in advance if you want to give me a puppy under 1 year old without vaccines. I will release the day from other bookings and clean the apartment. Because babies need a clean and safe environment.

About: New sitter special! ✨🐾💕 Intro rate for my first clients - rates go up soon, so book now while it lasts! Fair Warning: my house may cause your dog to smile more than usual. 🙂‍↔️🐾 From excisable young pups to mellow senior sweethearts, I have tons of experience training smart breed dogs and caring for every kind of personality. My own dog is an almost-3-year-old Shepardor who’s friendly with everyone and would have a blast playing with your fur baby! A lot of my clients tell me their dogs come home more relaxed and better behaved after just a few days with me. I enjoy weaving in a little training while I care for them, because a mentally stimulated dog is a happy and calm dog. I can’t wait to meet you and your sweet angel(s)! I work remotely from home and can play in between calls and take your pet on walks frequently. They’ll have lots of toys to play with and comfy places to sleep throughout my home. I had dogs growing up and my very own husky for 10 years. I supervise play time and I leash train on walks. Water bowls are always full and I have learned how to safely deal with aggressive dogs. Communication is key, so just learning what your dog’s likes, dislikes, triggers, etc. are will set them up for success!

About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages and personalities. I provide walks, playtime, medication when needed, and lots of affection. I always follow each pet’s routine and keep owners updated with photos and messages. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, spend a lot of time outdoors, and make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and daily routines, while keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages.

“Alex was a fantastic caretaker for our two cats. He followed instructions to the T and left very detailed notes and plenty of pictures everyday, giving us assurance and ease while we were away. We will happily work with him again and recommend him to anyone in need of a responsible, caring guardian for your pet.”

“Booked with Bella a second time! She was familiar with my cat’s care instructions from last time and followed them perfectly. My cat was happy to have someone he’s familiar with come back :)”
