Pet Sitting in Whittier

About: Animals have always been family in my home. I had a Terrier who I cared for throughout every stage of life into their elderly years, which gave me experience with senior dog care, patience, and understanding changing needs as dogs age. I’ve also spent a lot of time around other family dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and anxiety needs. I understand that every dog has their own temperament and comfort level, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for like part of the family. Whether a dog is playful and energetic or shy and anxious, I’m patient, attentive, and focused on creating a calm environment where they can feel comfortable. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home, so I am almost always home with the dogs. I absolutely love dogs and enjoy giving them attention and affection. My home is very family-oriented, and pets are treated like part of the family. I will be the primary caregiver at all times but there will be tons of love from my family as well. I have a fully enclosed fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, run around, and get fresh air. I also enjoy taking dogs on walks around Uptown or to local parks for exercise, stimulation, and fun. Since I spend most of my time at home, I am able to provide consistent care, potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and a calm, loving environment where dogs can feel comfortable and cared for. I provide loving, attentive care for pets both in my home and in my clients’ homes. Since I work from home with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family and have a safe, comfortable environment with access to our fully enclosed fenced backyard for exercise and outdoor time. I make sure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and cared for based on their individual personality and needs. I’m available for dog walks, drop-in visits, dog sitting, and boarding. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, anxious, or a senior needing extra patience, I focus on creating a calm, caring experience and keeping pet parents updated for peace of mind.

“Jessica is great with our kitties. This is the second time we booked her for drop in visits. She gives great updates and pictures. Communication has always been super easy with her. We would definitely ask her again. Our kitties like her too! :)”

Caring for pets isn’t an extra task for me it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize, reliable care. plus I am a mom cat he is boy Since i have a pet My goal is not just to “watch” your pet, but to build trust, provide enrichment, and create a calm, loving environment while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’m a big animal lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes, from playful puppies to sweet senior pups, who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with different energy levels, routines, and personalities, and I always focus on making pets feel safe and happy. I also have experience with cats and kittens, from energetic little ones to more independent adult cats. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or litter scooping, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’d love to meet you and your furry family! I’m currently working remote and will have plenty of time to play with your pup! Their structure during the stay here will follow the same as our own pup with morning and evening walks and let outs every few hours throughout the day (unless you have a preference for your pup). I have a gate separating our 2 elderly cats who are only indoors and live upstairs and the downstairs where our pup resides. We have an extra room downstairs where boarders can stay. Safety is very important to me!

About: I have 14 years experience beginning with a puppy growing into a 14 year old senior. I understand the love for your dog is like a family member and I feel the same way! I currently work at a school so my schedule allows me to care for pets after school, evenings, and weekends. Holidays are available also with notice I have a smaller fenced back yard, a large park next door for walks and play time. I have a crate available if wanted/requested. Pet beds also available if wanted

“Emilia was absolutely fantastic. She walked two dogs I’m currently sitting for, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and clearly experienced with handling multiple dogs at once. What stood out most was the level of care and attention she gave them. She sent photos during the walk, which was incredibly reassuring and thoughtful. You could tell the dogs were comfortable, engaged, and genuinely enjoying their time with her. When they came back, they were perfectly tired in the best way—calm, happy, and clearly well-exercised. That alone speaks volumes about the quality of her walk and how well she managed their energy. It’s not easy trusting someone else with animals in your care, but Emilia made it effortless. I would absolutely use her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, attentive, and professional dog walker.”

“Janet did a great job checking in on my two pups.. never once did I have to worry about anything. She also made sure they got their meds and spent quality time with them. I will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you Janet”

“Sarah was wonderful with Suki! It was her first time with her, and Suki was nervous, but Sarah made her feel comfortable and on the second day she even gave Sarah kisses! Also love the fact that when she came for a meet and greet, she asked me if there was anything specific I needed her to do when she came by for a drop-in. She was very professional and on time! Highly recommend!”

“Kelli was a total trooper and went above and beyond what I hired her to do, which was just check in on my elderly pups while I took a me day to hike with friends. For some reason the lock on my side gate failed after she took one of them on a walk. We eventually sorted it out but Kelli was kind enough to stay with my girls while I tried to get a neighbor to help since I was 1.5hrs away in the mountains. Through out the whole ordeal Kelli was super patient and understanding, a total angel.”

“Ashley is great and she was always on time and communicative. She took good care of my 2 dogs and I can tell they felt comfortable and happy with her.”

About: I grew up with and cared for all kinds of pets, even farm animals! I currently have 3 cats and 2 puppies. I've also cared for pets in clients homes as a caregiver. I'm currently doing school online so I have a lot of free time to hang out with your fur baby and a flexible schedule for consistency. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routines, and needs. Whether that means long walks, playtime, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I adjust my care to what makes your pet happiest. I closely follow all care instructions, including feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. Communication is key so of course you'll be getting updates and some cute pics of your babies.
