“Tiaira is amazing and we could not have asked for a better sitter for our two pups. One is special needs and we’ve never left him until now and are so grateful for her care and compassion. I almost don’t want to leave her his review so I can keep her a secret. Definitely recommend her to take care of your beloved pets.”


“Héloïse has been taking care of Forest both doing drop ins and house sitting. She’s thoughtful and a great communicator. Lots of photos and quick response time helps keep our mind at ease when it comes to our pup. Thank you for taking good care of Fori and home. Looking forward to future visits!”


“Big Thank you to Latamarra for taking care of my dog while I was out of town. Love the pictures, videos , and updates. Highly recommend. My dog is a picky eater and she walks warmed up to Latmarra.”


“Carley was beyond amazing! She went above and beyond to help accommodate me and my needs while I was away. My dog loved her and hopefully she will be the only sitter I use from here on out. Thank you again”


“When we go out of town, Jean is ALWAYS our go-to sitter for our elder special needs cat. She's a great house guest, we trust her implicitly, and always sends lots of texts, photos, and video check ins.”


“Lauren is incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and easy going. I felt completely comfortable having her housesit with my 15 year old pup. She didn’t bat an eye dealing with my pup’s care issues, which was so great because I was anxious about leaving her with someone in her old age. I would definitely book again!”


“I’ve never used a pet/house sitting service before and was slightly nervous about hiring a stranger to watch my cats while I was away for a weekend. I have a newly adopted kitten that my older cat is still trying to get acquainted to – so when I came across Sarah’s profile, being that she is an experienced cat owner, it made sense to hire her. She promptly responded to my request and was kind enough to walk me through the process. She was respectful of my home and wishes, and made sure to text me periodic updates (with photos), even before I had to ask how my babies were doing. I would definitely choose her to watch my cats again.”


“Jami did an amazing job watching our two boys (dogs) while we were away for a long weekend. She texted us frequent updates and a lot of photos. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family!”


About: I’ve been providing loving and reliable pet and house sitting services in Los Angeles for over 10 years. What started as helping out close friends and neighbors has grown into a true passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I only have a cat on my own but love dogs just as much! I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide range of dog breeds from Frenchies and Pomeranians to Labs and Pit mixes. No matter what their needs are, I make sure to take the best care of them! I have also had the pleasure to care for a range of cats, I love to see all of the different personalities that they have. I understand how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet in someone else’s hands. My goal is always to keep your pets happy, healthy, and comfortable, and treat them as if they were my own. I’m always happy to send regular photo updates, so you can stay connected and worry-free while you’re away. I live and work in Downtown Los Angeles, so this is also where i mainly provide my services. I work a full-time job but am flexible on hours away from home. It’s mostly remote, but i help out on site 5-6 hours about 3-4 days a week depending on what is going on each week. Since I live in the city we don’t have a yard but I am about a block from a park with a dog run as well as close to grand park. I love walking downtown. We also have a spare room in case the pet needs its own space. We’re loaded up on toys and treats for both cats and dogs.

“Catherine ROCKS!!!! She looked after my pup and kitty so well, sent so many pictures, and cuddled and kept them company so well while we were away. She even left behind some extra cat food she had for our boy!! Would definitely book with her again!!!”


“Maggie is by far the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. In just one day, she treated our pups like her own — patient, loving and completely in tune with their personalities. She made sure they got all the exercise, fresh air and attention they needed and it was clear they were having a blast with her. Her updates were always thoughtful, full of adorable photos and little stories that made us feel like we were right there with them. She goes above and beyond in every way. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dogs like family, Maggie is the one.”


About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was five, and caring for pets has been a joyful part of my life ever since! I’ve had all kinds of furry, feathery, and scaly friends over the years, including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, turtles, fish, and even some exotic animals. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. What sets me apart? I’m gentle, playful, and full of energy; I’ll run around with your pup, snuggle your kitty, or keep your bunny entertained with enrichment activities. I’ve cared for puppies and kittens and know just how much extra love and patience they need during their early stages. I also understand the delicateness and special care required for senior pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and supported every step of the way. When your pet is with me, they’re not just being looked after; they’re being loved, spoiled, and treated like family. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or not-so-furry) friend! I am fairly flexible! Mon-Fridays are best but I can also do weekends when given enough notice. I can also do anytime of the day, my ideal hours are between 8am-8pm I currently have a pet bunny, whom I adore and care for with lots of love and intention. His routine includes fresh meals twice a day, constant access to clean water and hay, and daily interaction through enrichment activities. We bond over treats, gentle grooming sessions, and quality time together—whether it's cuddles at home or occasional visits to the park or beach for a change of scenery. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same level of patience, attentiveness, and respect. I make sure their space is clean, their needs are met, and that they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you're away. I pay close attention to details; whether it's maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications, or simply tuning in to their moods and comfort levels. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority.

“I LOVE Mi-Cha-El !! I booked Mi-Cha-El fairly last minute when my original pet care fell through. He responded quickly and was willing to come to my place very soon after connecting in order to meet in person. He is so sweet, reassuring, and calm and you can really see his love for animals. He updated me with pictures and videos and my shy covid cat warmed up to him and they became friends. I will definitely be booking Mi-Cha-El again!! Thank you so much for your care and attention, Mi-Cha-El!”


“Brii was great! She was early (which is always appreciated), sent lots of photos of Jax and was flexible when I needed to return a little later the expected. Will absolutely be hiring her again :)”


“Seungyeon was so kind, attentive and caring of Daisy. She didn’t need to be with her the whole 4 hours but it seems she didn’t leave her side. Daisy is paralyzed on her back legs and Seungyeon accommodated for every need. Would call her again!”


“You truly could not find a better dogsitter than Jessica! She took such amazing care of our girl - Nessie fell in love with her instantly and seemed to have an absolutely wonderful time with her while we were away! Jessica kept in touch throughout her stay at our place with daily photos and updates, and in every picture Nessie looked even happier! Jessica also took great care of our home - she even watered our plants! We can’t imagine calling anyone else (Nessie probably wouldn’t let us anyway)!”
