Trevor was on time and attentive with my furry crew. He was good about sending daily updates and my dog and cat seemed to like him. My house was as I left it.

I highly recommend Donna for any pet sitting needs. She was an amazing sitter and took wonderful care of our three dogs, guinea pig, and fish. Our dogs have become very attached to having someone home since my husband started working from home, so it was a huge relief to know they were happy and calm in Donna's care. Her calm demeanor and warm personality made our dogs very comfortable, and we appreciated the daily photos and messages she sent to keep us updated. We also returned to an immaculate house. Donna’s care truly made our vacation much better. Please do not hesitate to book her for your pet sitting needs.

About: Dog walking is something I love to do. I take my dog (a boisterous standard schnauzer with quite the mind of his own!) on a walk everyday and love to help others out by giving their pup some exercise! I know that all dogs are unique, so I will take great care to make sure that I follow any instructions given and make this a great experience for the dog. I am good at reading a dog’s body language and know techniques to help calm a dog down if it gets overstimulated and will take necessary steps to ensure the dog’s comfort. I also know my way around the neighborhood, and can take the pup to new and exciting places (within the owners comfort level of course!) so they have a great time! As a recent college graduate, I have a very flexible schedule with ample time to dedicate to taking care of pets. I usually do morning and evening walks (as to avoid too high temperatures) and throughout the day can provide general pet care. I have a large, fenced in yard that pups can run freely in with my own dog. There is also a pool that they can use (under strict supervision of course!) and they have free access to all areas inside the house. We are also conscientious about making sure there are no dangerous things lying around (eg. socks, small items) that the dog can get to.

Bridget was a wonderful sitter! She accommodated our dogs nervousness and high energy. She sent pictures and video throughout the night and accommodated us when we extended the time. I will be using her again! I would highly recommend her!

Nadine did such an amazing job. She stayed with my two pups over the weekend and she immediately made us feel comfortable as our two pups took to her right away. She’s sent us pictures on a regular basis of them playing and cuddling with her. Thanks so much for taking such good care of our fur family.

About: I enjoy cats and dogs as I have had my own, currently pet sit for my roommates cats while she’s on vacation. Cuddle puddles are my favorite pastime Evenings and weekends are preferred, can be flexible. I can do drop ins anytime past 6pm on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. Emergency calls can also be arranged. I care for pets by slowly introducing myself, first by smell then when comfortable, by touch. I give treats when warranted, but ensure no over feeding/snacking. Lastly I cuddle with pets who are most comfortable.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. I’ve done dog sitting and dog walking for different breeds and personalities, and I’m comfortable keeping up with routines, giving extra patience and care when needed, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m a teacher, so I have more flexibility in the summer when I’m off. I’m very active and enjoy staying busy by being outdoors—going for walks, spending time at the beach, and staying on the move. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely love animals, and spending time with them is something I enjoy as a hobby. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well looked after while sticking closely to their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting their space and the home. My goal is always to keep pets happy and stress-free while their owners are away.

I'm currently working but done by 4-5 so my nights and weekends are free for walks or just some fun. weekends im free all day I would make sure the pet is comfortable in their home and give them all the attention they need and of course if theres any notes go over all notes

About: My name is Hannah. I worked at West hills animal hospital. My love for pets is what sparked me to enter the wonderful world of pet sitting. I have been a dog walker/dog sitter and have been boarding dogs for 5+ years. i understand the importance of trusting someone to care for you "kids". i grew up with a household of furry friends! Many people thought my family was crazy for having so many pets! But i couldn't imagine my life without them. They bring so much joy and happiness to my family's life. seeing their little faces everyday just puts a smile on my face! I'm a stay at home mom with a 3 year old, so i have flexible hours, i will be delighted to watch your fur babies! I would like to keep your fur babies as close to their schedule as possible, I would love taking them for walks! I want them to feel as close to home as i possibly could!

About: My friend and I raised our pup from when she was only 8 weeks old, so I have experience with all of the puppy to dog related things :) I'm a teacher and a volleyball coach during the school year, so I have plenty of free time in the summer to help out with your fur babies! Being a dog mom myself, I am super cautious when it comes to taking care of any animal. I make sure we are in a safe environment, harness / collar / leash is connected properly, and I stay alert to make sure your dog can have a fun and calming walk! For at home care, I am timely for potty breaks, making sure your pup gets some love and anything you ask for while I am there!

Amy was the best, we are so lucky to have found her! She took care of our large dog Luna who is very sweet but also doesn't know her own strength sometimes. Amy is great at handling all sizes of dogs. She kept us informed every day and took good care of our house too. We (including Luna) highly recommend!

About: I bring a calm, reliable presence and genuine love for animals. I’m experienced with both puppies and senior pets, including reinforcing training, maintaining routines, and providing gentle support for older pets who need extra care. I’m detail‑oriented, safety‑focused, and communicate clearly so owners always feel informed and confident. Every pet is treated with patience, respect, and the same care I’d want for my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I plan my days around consistency. I’m comfortable with early mornings, scheduled walks, feeding times, and regular check‑ins. I treat each visit as a priority, making sure every pet gets dependable care and attention throughout the week. When I care for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and predictable environment. I follow each pet’s routine exactly as outlined — feeding times, walks, play, training reinforcement, and any medication needs. I take time to understand their personality, comfort level, and energy so I can adapt my approach and help them feel secure. For puppies, I reinforce the basics: crate routines, potty breaks, consistent schedules, and positive training habits. For senior pets, I’m patient and gentle, offering slow walks, mobility support, and medication reminders. No matter the age, I keep communication open with owners through updates, photos, and honest check‑ins so they always feel confident and informed.

We had an excellent experience with Jess, and could not recommend her more highly. She stayed overnight with our dog, in our home, and checked in frequently throughout the day, which gave us tremendous peace of mind while we were away. Communication was outstanding — she sent regular updates along with plenty of photos and videos, and was always responsive and thoughtful in her messages. Jess was incredibly respectful of our home, keeping everything clean, orderly, and exactly as we left it. Most importantly, it was clear that our dog was well cared for, happy, and comfortable the entire time. She is trustworthy, reliable, and genuinely attentive, and we felt completely confident leaving both our dog and our home in her care. We would absolutely use her again and recommend her without hesitation.

Nadine watched our senior pitty for the second time in the past 7 months. She is so loving and attentive to our fur baby. Nadine noticed her arthritis acting up and notify us so some additional medication could be administered. She is just a wonderful sitter- for our dog who has a lot of issues. I never worry when Jazzy is in her care since I know Nadine will treat her like her own!
