“Laura took great care of our two doggies! She was very communicative and I felt comfortable having her at our place. Look forward to booking with her the next time we need a pet sitter!”


“Kate was fabulous. I left with my family for the East Coast for a long weekend. I had never left my pup before. Kate stayed in our home and took excellent care of him. My pup continued to wait in the guest room for Kate to come back. I would say he really enjoyed the stay-cation without us and Kate in charge!”


“Cassandra watched our cat and dog over the weekend. She was great! She sent lots of updates and photos and took the dog on several walks and played lots of fetch. She asked a lot of great questions and took notes during the meet and greet. Will definitely rebook for our next trip :)”



“My dogs and kitty were just as happy and healthy as when I left. Karen was very communicative and responsive with any questions and left my house in good shape as well. Thanks again for taking good care of my little zoo!”


“Alyssa was great with my dog frankie! She was very communicative and sent updates throughout her stay which I really appreciated!! She took frankie on multiple walks (which she isn’t the easiest dog to walk) and helped frankie feel loved while I was away! Will definitely book with her again.”


“Amir overnighted with my 2 large neurotic dogs over New Years. He was super attentive to specific meds and feeding regimes, as well as their PTSD with fireworks and noise. I felt confident leaving them to Amir and came home to happy dogs and a clean house. Recommend!”


“Tresha was Awesome! She’s responsive! On time! Mellow with the pups. She sat our three dogs while we were away for the day throwing our sons party. Appreciate Tresha booking with us on such short notice.”


“Diana took excellent care of my 3 year Australian Cattle Dog for 6 days. She was great about making sure she had all the details for his care and instantly had a great connection with him. She was incredibly respectful while staying at my apt and went above and beyond.”


“Jordan took great care of our 13-year old dog Max and our house while she stayed here over the weekend. We greatly appreciated the updates and photos that she provided throughout her stay. Jordan was sweet and caring with our pup and I am sure that he got lots of cuddles and love.”



About: Hi, I'm Abby! I've been an animal lover my whole life, and I've been taking care of pets in various settings (in-home, daycare, boarding, dog-walking) for more than ten years. I specialize in multiple-pet households, but whether you have one pet or five, rest assured they'll each receive the best care possible. I'm extremely detailed (I love a comprehensive info sheet!), and I ask the right questions up front, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pets are in good hands. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time and energy to devote to your pets. I prefer to work weekdays, Monday-Friday, but I am also available for longer in-home stays over the weekend with enough notice. I take your pet's health and safety very seriously, which is why I make sure I understand not only what their immediate needs are (food, water, exercise, enrichment), but also what potential stressors might be (loud noises, other animals, etc.). I gather as much information as I can up front, so I can anticipate your pet's needs as they arise. Knowing where the cleaning materials, trash, emergency numbers, and security items (crate, leash, carrier) are in your home gives ME peace of mind and makes my job that much easier. Once I have all the info I need, while you're gone, I can check back in with you as much or as little as you prefer -- I'm happy to send updates throughout the day, or I'm just as happy to take care of things myself and provide a summary when you return. Either way, I make sure both you and your pet(s) enjoy your time away!

“Nick was absolutely fantastic while house sitting for Gus and Goji this past weekend! He followed every instruction to a T, showed up right on time for each visit, and took the boys on plenty of walks. He kept me updated with pictures and made sure the pups were well cared for while I was away. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such responsible and thoughtful hands. Highly recommend!”



“I have been searching for a new pet sitter, which has gotten harder (for me) now that my pal, Wallee, a 15-year old poodle mix, needs a lot more care due to his failing health. Lucia was very understanding, communicative, and responsive to my million questions about whether she was "up for the job" of taking care of my very high-maintenance pooch. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. Thanks again Lucia!”


About: I'm an animal whisperer, of sorts. The dog that doesn't like anyone, 10 minutes in will be my bestie. I've rescued squirrels fallen from trees, I've played fetch with a dolphin, I've snuggled with a wild sea lion on a beach.. I was born into a house of cats and dogs, and took my first K9 handler training with my German Shepherd when I was 10. I have raised and trained many others since, and my first two huskies lived a healthy and unheard of 15 years! Now I live in a huge 6 bedroom house with a husky and a corgi mix, and two very sweet female humans. The house features a doggie door to the fully fenced, beautiful backyard, and was fully designed for dogs. They roam freely inside and outside as they please all day, but are generally napping on the couch, sun bathing outside our window, or playing fetch with one of the awesome pet loving people that live here! I generally work from home, and live with a couple of girls who love dogs as much as I do, so there should always be someone here to give them plenty of love! For boarding, our yard is fully fenced and the dogs have a doggie door for free roam of the air-conditioned house and large yard, where they will interact with our dogs and other pet loving people. There is always fresh water, lots of comfy beds and toys throughout!

“Mario was amazing, I will trust my Dog with him again and again. He really took the time to learn everything I had to tell him about his routine and had great communication. We got home to a tired puppy and a clean house. I am so happy we found him.”


“Kelsi is great! She stayed at my home with my pup all day while I was out of town. She sent me updates and pictures of my pup which I really appreciated. She did great following his routine and accommodating to my pups behaviors. Overall Kelsi is kind and caring and I’m hoping to book her again soon!”


About: Ive been a dog sitter and walker for over 9 years before joining this app. From puppies to seniors and with different health needs, I have the experience needed to take care of your pup. I live in downtown Long Beach and understand the needs of different types of dogs from the overly friendly to very reactive and can accommodate to the dog’s needs accordingly. I currently have a 9 year-old husky and 4 month-old chihuahua mix I take care of at home. I’m currently in between jobs and have a lot of time on my hands. My time is most free during business hours but I am happy to accommodate to your scheduling needs. I currently live in an apartment. While it is a bit cramped, my husky is not territorial in the least and guest pups have an easy time accommodating to the space. If I am in someone else’s home, I will make sure to adhere to the rules and guidelines they provide me to take care of their pup(s).

“Sarita was fantastic! She stayed with our pup for a week while we were traveling and took such good care of him. Not to mention our house! I knew from our first meeting that Sarita was great and she definitely exceeded our expectations. From daily texts, photos and vodeos”

Abigail A.

“We’ve had the pleasure of Abby house/pet sitting for our golden retriever. Abby provided wonderful care with attention to detail. Prior to our departure, Abby met with us.

Finn can be a bit of a handful and Abby certainly rose to the occasion, with attention and exercise for Finn. We would happily And confidently hire Abby again in a heartbeat.”

My dog gets very anxious when I’m gone so it was a relief to see how happy and carefree he looked with Issis. I cannot recommend her services enough.”
