About: I have pet sit for friends while they are on vacation. I have taken care of about 4 dogs. I have lived with a dog for about 2 years I work part time so i have around 3 free days a week while the others i work schedule i can comfortably have time to go check in on your fur babies and work ! I can make sure your dog comfortably gets the care and attention they need while you’re away. Whether that is walks or just playing with them for a bit so they aren’t lonely
About: I have experience caring for both my own dogs and my neighbors' dogs. I am familiar with both small and larger breeds, and I have worked with older dogs that require extra attention and care. My empathetic nature makes me well-suited to take care of your beloved pups. I am currently working part-time, so walking your pups would be more than just a job—it would be a hobby that allows me to spend time with beautiful animals. Safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment are top priorities in my pet care approach. Whether caring for pets in my own home or at a client's residence, I ensure a secure environment by implementing measures such as regular safety checks, secure enclosures, and pet-proofing spaces. I maintain open communication with clients to understand their pets' specific needs, preferences, and any health concerns. This personalized care extends to providing a clean and stimulating environment with enriching activities tailored to each pet's temperament and energy level.
About: My dogs are my life, and I want to ensure your dogs are well taken care of while you’re away. I have experience taking care of multiple dogs, from puppies to senior dogs, and dogs with timely medications. I had my first dog at 9 years old for 15 amazing years. My second dog, I’ve had since she was a puppy and has crossed the rainbow at 16 years old. She was also on specific timed medication for the last 3 years. I also take care of my brothers 2 dogs. I am currently unemployed, and I’ve been working on freelance work projects from home. I have plenty of time to care for dog and I am flexible with time. I have a fenced backyard your dog can spend time in. I also have a small fenced area in my home they can stay in comfortably, and separately from the other dogs. All preferences can be catered to your pet such as if you want your dogs away from other pets or if you would like them outdoors more that inside, etc.
About: I specialize in structured dog walking that builds consistency and healthy daily routines. Purposeful walks that reinforce good behavior, leash manners, and calm energy. I have many years of experience with puppies and senior dogs. Consistent walks provide real benefits. They reduce anxiety, prevent destructive behavior, improve leash manners, and support overall health. Dogs that follow a steady walking routine are typically more relaxed, better behaved, and easier to manage at home. I also provide reliable potty breaks and help establish a consistent daily schedule, reinforcing good habits over time. My approach is calm and structured, so your dog stays safe and well cared for every walk. Pet care is part of my daily routine, and I regularly walk dogs around the neighborhood. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening walks to help dogs stay on a consistent, predictable schedule. I maintain full control using secure leashing, constant awareness, and careful route selection to avoid unnecessary risks. I stay alert to other dogs, traffic, and surroundings to keep each walk calm and controlled. I carry waste bags and ensure clean, responsible walks every time.
About: Having a passion for animals had allowed me to be able to adapt to the needs of each pet I encounter. From ferrets to good ol' doggos, I am comfortable with all sorts of pets. I'm a Student Parent and being able to help pet parents in-between class and parenting myself is a perfect fit in my schedule. It allows me to control my schedule. Currently I am unable to keep pets in my home. My services are pet sitting or walking. Thank you for this understanding and I hope to work with you and your pet soon!

“Really appreciated having Giovanny being available to walk my dog Gnocchi. From the second we booked, he was communicative and clear. All note and instruction I sent, no matter how vague, he was able to make the most of. He cleaned up a little accidents that happened where he did not need to. Definitely a solid choice if anybody is in need of doggy care!”


About: I have been sitting and caring for dogs for ~12 years; dogs of all sizes, temperaments and needs. My partner and I fostered dogs for 2 years, some of which were high medical needs, mother dogs and young puppies, etc. I am super comfortable with any age and temperament. I am currently working super part-time, so I have a wide open schedule at the moment :) Happy to walk them on a consistent or one-off schedule, do drop ins, or watch them longer term at your place. I currently am not able to keep any pups at my place, but I am totally happy to come to yours and run any protocol you typically do with your pups. Crating, treats, brushing, etc.
About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats almost my entire life and I know how to take care of them well and make them feel happy and safe! I live in an apartment with my family, we all love pets and equally experienced with taking care of them :) Note: This account is owned by me, Nabil Abdelsayed, but often times when I’m unavailable a family member helps out. I will always make sure to specify who will be taking care of your pet and a meeting could always be arranged beforehand. I’m free all day and I’d be more than happy to take your pet in! If there happens to be any reason that I am not free I will update my schedule. I will make sure your pet feels safe and happy here, and provide them anything that they need. I live with 3 cats and 1 dog, they all get along and I’d be more than happy to look after your pet as well!
About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! I’m currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.
“Pearl was amazing! She dropped in before our first booking to meet me and my dog, Lola. Pearl fed and walked Lola and sent photos of our happy pooch! Thank you so much for taking great care of Lola. We had peace of mind while out for the night and came home to a happy pooch!!”


About: I've grown up fostering puppies and eventually taking care of three family dogs. Additionally, I've volunteered for a cat rescue group known as 'Cats In Need.' Aiding in adoption days, active enrichment, flea removal treatments and of course loving affection. I provided basic needs such as food, water, and cleanliness. I'm currently a full-time college student with great availability! Pet care is just like second nature to me as I grew up with three dogs, and even own a crested gecko. I'm an early riser, love to be active and fit, love to be around nature and stay cozy inside. My busiest days are Tuesday and Thursday, only one lecture on Mondays and Wednesdays, and the rest of the week is completely free. I am in a fairly well sized studio apartment with a gated area of grass! Currently my only pet is a crested gecko who is in a terrarium and does not make too much noise nor poses a concern. Clients are free to sleep on my bed, and get the utmost affection from me. Staying actively enriched is important, so many toys, simple training, and walks are provided!
About: I’ve always loved dogs and cats and am often the go-to pet sitter for my family. I have experience caring for pets of different ages and personalities, including helping senior family members with bathing, feeding, walking, and providing companionship for their pets. I understand that every pet has unique needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I am reliable, patient, and committed to treating every pet as if they were my own. After 26 years working in an office environment, I decided it was time for a change and to do something I truly enjoy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I love dogs, being active, and spending time outdoors. I enjoy going on walks and providing pets with the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Caring for animals gives me a sense of purpose, and I love knowing that I’m helping both pets and their owners feel happy, comfortable, and cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, which is why I make it a priority to carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, exercise, or special care requirements, I will make sure your pet receives the attention and care they are accustomed to. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, as if they were my own.
“10/10 . Brandy was AWSOME . She acknowledged our dogs needs and actively helped them enjoy their walks with her. She’s full of respect and so much l affection for the dogs . We recommend Brandy ! Thank you :)”

About: I’ve been surrounded with animals my whole life and have a deep love and respect for them. I treat each pet with love and care as if they were my own 💕 As of right now, I have a decently open schedule as I am between jobs. I currently live in the Palos Verdes area and have my own car for transportation. I am most definitely available to pet sit at other home and can be there most of the day with them if needed! Feeding, walking, playing, and cleaning would all be part of daily routine to make sure your pet is as happy and healthy as possible while you are away! I cannot offer any pet services in my own house currently.
About: I grew up with animals my entire life ( including exotic and farm), volunteered at the wildlife rehab center, and local vet hospital throughout college. From cats, dogs, birds, snakes, lizards, newts, any furr or slimey critter that needs love and attention while you're away! Senior or adolescent I'm experienced with caring for any age, dietary, attention, or medications needs :) I'm a cancer survivor so caring for myself and pets its my job! I'm available to be a regular friendly face every week or supplement support when you have long days or stuck at work! I'm located right in downtown long beach and familiar with safe parks to take your pets to, or happy to entertain them at their home in a safe space :) I'm very attentive and adjust my approach according to your pets comfort.
“Connor has a wonderfully calm presence which has been so helpful as he has walked our two dogs, one of whom is large, extremely high strung and skittish. He is communicative, reliable, and attentive to details. We will definitely continue to use him.”

Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
