House Sitting in Alhambra

I cannot recommend Avery highly enough. As discussed below, she expertly cared for our pup, family, and friends through a true crisis back in January, and we had another stellar experience with her just a few weeks ago. Avery is communicative, punctual, and respectful of our home and approach to puppy parenting—a true professional with heart and common sense. Avery came over before the engagement to meet our spunky chug—she asked insightful questions about Ernie and his behavior, inquired about all aspects of his daily routine, did a walkthrough of the house, and even went on a short walk with us to get a sense of Ernie’s reactivity to other dogs. We immediately felt completely safe and reassured about leaving our home and our puppers in her expert care. During our vacation, Avery sent us updates and the cutest pictures of Ernie, and he clearly adored her. A few days into our vacation, we learned that my elderly in-laws (one with Alzheimer’s) received evacuation orders due to the Eaton Canyon fire. They sought shelter with friends of ours, but our friends received evacuation orders shortly thereafter. Our friends and in-laws arrived at our house, just outside of the evacuation zone, and Avery took them in and made them all comfortable, with towels, bedding, and food. With all this—people coming and going, friends and family in distress, and smoke filled skies—Avery also made sure that Ernie was safe and well-cared for. There really are no words to express my gratitude to Avery for her care of those things that I care most about in this world.

Second day in and Carrie continues to be amazing. She is incredibly friendly and has been right on time for every visit. Seeing the updates on how careful and sweet she is with our senior fur baby makes being away so much easier. We’re so glad we found her and are looking forward to day three tomorrow!

Courtney's been wonderful with our little ones and flexible with our ever-changing feeding instructions. We're always happy when she's available when we're planning a trip.

I was in a desperate need to find a Rover sitter for my dog Chuck at my home in an emergency, where I found Limari. Luckily she was available to come on a short notice. Limari turned out to be a fantastic choice! Chuck is a high energy working line German Shepherd police dog, born, raised, and trained in Germany. Limari quickly combined her already tremendous dog experience with the German only commands that Chuck understands. I gave Limari a list of the few German commands she needed for sitting and some pointers on Chuck’s type of dog behavior that she needed to know. Shortly after I left the house. Limari frequently communicated with me and sent pictures of her sitting progress with Chuck. She also fed him, played with him, and walked him, using her brilliant dog skills. Limari was very punctual showing up, very respectful of the house, and Chuck immediately fell in love with her! When Limari left Chuck was whining for a few minutes, greatly missing her. I HIGHlY recommend Limari for your dog sitting, dog care, and dog walking needs. She’s simply a dog whisperer beyond the capability of some of the police and working dog pro trainers!!!

Maori was fantastic with our senior dogs including one who has some special needs and it can be challenging to get him to eat at times. She knew we were nervous about leaving our dogs with a sitter and I really appreciated that she was transparent about when she would come and go. She was understanding and respectful. When we got home the dogs were obviously calm and relaxed after four days with Lori. Our house was exactly as we had left it. I will not hesitate to book her again.

We had a great experience with Adela! She was prompt, took great care of our puppy and sent video updates, and was respectful of our home. We'd totally book again!

Our three dogs were in very good hands with Gabriella! They loved her! She sent great photos, had excellent communication and left a clean house. Highly recommend her and we will be booking with her again!

Kathleen was easy to communicate with, followed directions carefully, brought in our mail/packages, took lots of beautiful photos of our furry friends, and left the house tidy. Most importantly, our animals seemed well cared for, and happy when we returned. We’d absolutely use her again!

Jessica is perhaps the best dog sitter we had had. She stayed at our house with our furry baby Hank and it went amazingly well. She was so communicative, always updating us on everything and sending daily pictures of Hank and he really had a blast with her. We can't thank Jessica enough for all the care she provided to Hank that allowed us to take a very peaceful vacation. We recommend her 1000% and we will be using her again.

So happy to have Laura stay with our dog and cat for a second time! As always, very communicative and kind. Loved seeing videos of her playing with the girls. She's a very thoughtful and generous pet sitter - highly highly recommend!

Ruby did a great job house sitting for my cat Winston. She was communicative and sent me great photos. I could tell that Winston had a good time because he was cuddling up next to her in the photos. I would hire her again.

Krista did a great job! We’d definitely have her watch our Max again!

Best of the best! I couldn’t recommend Kathy more! This recent visit she even coaxed our very anxious and special needs dog on a walk around the block and did so with so much faith, encouragement and patience!

Haley was an amazing sitter for my pup + 2 cats for 3 weeks. They were very comfortable with her right away, it was a huge relief knowing someone dependable was watching them. She took my dog out on play dates and was very responsive. Definitely will book with Haley again!

I highly recommend Chris. She came in fur the meet and greet and sat right on the floor. Bob is the most shy of the 3, but he came out to see what was going on. During the stay Bob needed meds and she more than willing to try anything. She couldn't pick him up, cause they just met so it to be crushed and hidden in his food. When I returned I couldn't even tell she had been here. Fabulous!

Sonia did a great job with our high-energy and reactive ACD fo a full week. Our dog isn't always the easiet and can get reactive with new people so we really needed someone we could trust to handle her properly! Sonia was willing to do plenty of walks and introduction sessions to get Rooney used to her before the sitting, and then sent photos that showed us everything was going fine during the sitting. Our dog was happy and-well-cared for and Sonia treated our apartment very well.
