"A relaxing and long time away from home made possible by the best pet & house sitters we could have asked for!" Judy and Steph went the extra mile over their entire one month stay at our home. Both our cats became fast friends thanks to the care and dedication provided for them. We were routinely updated with spectacular photos of our furry girls throughout our leave that helped us be anxiety-free the entire time. Even our older shy cat spent time sleeping on their laps or hanging out on shoulders. As for the house, Judy and Steph left it even cleaner than when they arrived! We had a few tasks to maintain the lawn and potted plants outside, which were completed perfectly. They even tended to our vegetable garden where needed! During a 'risk of severe hail storm' alert, Judy and Steph kept us in the loop and went even further to place potted plants under shelter out of harms way. In summary, we recommend Judy and Steph and would happily have them return again if our schedules cross paths.
Kendra was a great cat sitter to Genepi and she truly is a cat whisperer. Genepi usually takes 4 days to make friends with a new person but she came out and made friends with Kendra Day 1! Kendra regularly sent wonderful videos and pics of Genepi purring happily. The apartment was neat when we returned and our garden was blossoming. Would absolutely ask Kendra to sit again and highly recommend her. Thanks Kendra!!
I feel that Julia is simply the best person and pet sitter I could ask for. They really cared for our cat and gave him lots of attention. She is flexible, upbeat, reliable, considerate and great at communicating. I highly recommend Julia and Chris.
Kathy and Ron have sat for us several times in the past and have always been excellent. They are our "go-to" pet and house sitters and we always check their availability before we post a sit. They are trustworthy, organized, communicate very well, and take great care of our cats and our house. We hope they will continue pet sitting for many years to come!
Young was the perfect house sitter for us. From the moment you meet her, you can tell she is animal person and is detailed oriented and will take great care of your house and pets. She exudes a peaceful and grounded energy. She was comfortable with each our pets from the high energy dog to the shy skittish cat. She played with the dog in the yard every day and took him on walks. And she was also very attentive to our cats and figured out how to maintain the equilibrium in the relationship between the cats and dog. She is an excellent communicator; she asked questions when our directions weren't clear and kept us updated on the pets. She is also an amazing photographer. She sent us pics of our pets every day that totally captured each of their personalities.
Kristi was an absolutely incredible sitter -- I think our favorite one ever! She was easy to communicate with, kind and personable, and took great care of our pets and our house. It was the first time we had left both our dog and our cat with a TH sitter and Kristi went above and beyond. She was very self-sufficient but provided fun updates and pictures and our pets loved her. Highly recommend!
Quinn was an amazing sitter for my cat Moon! She regularly checked in with updates on moon while we were away on a two week vacation, and seemed to give her plenty of attention, play with her, etc. Communication was easy and she left our apartment spotless after departing. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
Catherine was a wonderful sitter for our 17 year old cat Zabba. She sent us pictures twice a day and kept us informed about Zabba’s daily activities. We came home to a clean home and would definitely recommend her as a pet/ house sitter. My only concern was that she doesn’t drive and with an older cat, I just prayed that Zabba didn’t need to go to the vet…. And he didn’t 🥰. We will ask her again for sure.
If Cung ever applies to your post for a house or pet sit, I strongly encourage you to jump at the offer. You will not be disappointed. Cung is among the top (if not the top) sitter I’ve ever had and I’ve been on this site for years. Primarily, Cung is very organized. In the weeks and days leading up to the sit, Cung kept me abreast of his plans and status. I felt very comfortable in the days leading up to the sit because I knew the plan we made to exchange the keys and walk him through the instructions would work as planned. Second, Cung really cares. When he got to my apartment after what I assume was a long day of traveling, I explained the care instructions and he was very attentive and cared about the details - asking very specific questions on how to care for my cat and apartment. I had some pretty specific rules about how to feed my cat and take care of him and Cung followed those exactly. Third, Cung makes you feel comfortable while you are away. I got daily or twice daily updates about my cat. I got pictures which made me feel like my cat was having a good time. My cat came out within an hour of me being away - very fast for my cat as he is shy. Cung must have a calming energy towards animals. Cung was also very responsive when I reached out first - replying within 5 minutes. I really appreciated that. My cat threw up at one point and Cung answered all of my questions to assess whether my cat was sick or had just eaten too fast. Fourth, Cung will take good care of your apartment/house. I came back to a SPOTLESS apartment. The sheets were washed and folded on my bed. The towels were washed. The apartment had been vacuumed. The kitchen was clean. The dishwasher had been run. Everything was in its place when I returned. Honestly, cleaner than when I left it which is difficult since I am a very clean person. Cung also respects your property. I have an extensive computer setup that he used for work and he was very respectful of that equipment. He asked if he could use it beforehand, which was incredibly polite since he could have used it and I wouldn’t have known. In sum. You need to jump at the opportunity if Cung offers to sit for you. I came home to a very happy cat. Hope he will sit for me again sometime!
My husband and I reached out to Toby & Chloe after reading their profile and impressive reviews only a week before our trip, since our scheduled sitter had to cancel at the last moment. They were very friendly and quick to respond to chat from the very beginning, and ended up exceeding our expectations during their two week stay. It was evident they had thoroughly read our Welcome Guide beforehand, as they arrived knowledgeable and prepared to care for our home and pets. They were very willing and happy to take the necessary time with us to walk through the house and meet our cats, as we got them acclimated with our daily routines and answered any questions. Shortly after we left, our city had a heat wave come through, and after immediately notifying us, Toby went beyond the call of duty and inspected our struggling AC unit to pinpoint the issue. As far as cat care is concerned, we have two seniors (who have more sensitive tummies) that can get irritated after a fur ball or swallowing anything out of the ordinary. When this occurred, Toby & Chloe stepped in and took wonderful care of our cat duo; softening their food and even cradling while hand-feeding them for extra comfort. We truly could not have asked for more affectionate and responsible sitters. We returned to a spotlessly clean home, happy cats, and well maintained plants and pool. (They even cleaned our dusty Kitchen pendant lighting, which requires a steady hand and is definitely a time-commitment …We felt like professional housecleaners had been there!) On our way back, Toby & Chloe stayed in communication with us to monitor our arrival time, allowing them to care for our cats until just before we got home. Overall, they are very reliable and trustworthy sitters whose genuine goal is to provide a top-quality sit, while maintaining your household and seamlessly transitioning to your pets daily schedule.

Isla (my Mini-Labradoodle) has been going to Camp Puppies since she was 6 months old and I couldn't be more grateful to have someone as amazing as Kacy as Isla's second mom. When we moved to the South Bay from San Luis Obispo, we didn't find a good fit with any of the local kennels and knew that our Isla needed more personalized attention, exercise, and love. I stumbled upon Camp Puppies on Google, and couldn't be happier that Kacy was willing to take Isla into the pack. Through working with Kacy during weekly walks and occasional overnights, Isla has become a more confident and social little lady. She always comes home super tired and I always know how much fun she had from the photos and videos sent by Kacy. I literally could never trust anyone else with my precious Isla and wouldn't leave the South Bay because of how great Kacy and Camp Puppies is! Thank you Kacy!!!
Our sweet, senior pug is treated like a tiny prince at Camp Puppies! Kacy truly loves every pup she works with as if they were her own. She is attentive, thoughtful, and gives **all** the love there is to give towards each and every dog in her care. Camp Puppies is reflective of Kacy’s genuine care for her clients and her commitment to making sure CP is a delightful experience for both dog and human.
We absolutely love Kacy, can't say enough good things about her and our dogs feel the same way! Kacy takes our dogs on great long walks often to exciting and new places nearby, which they love. If you are in the South Bay you need to use Kacy and Camp Puppies for all your dog walking and boarding needs.
Kacy is a second mommy to my fur baby-she has taken such great care of our dog on walks while we work and also for overnights when we go out of town. You can tell how much she genuinely loves the dogs and I know that mine is in the best hands with her. So glad I found Camp Puppies. Thanks Kacy!!
We love Camp Puppies! I’ve sent my pup to Chrissy for plenty of long weekends, and even sent her to Puppies while I spent time abroad. I always receive plenty of pictures and updates so I know my pup is in great hands. Chrissy genuinely loves and cares for the dogs she is watching, and I have and will recommend her to friends again in the future.
If I could give 10 stars, I would! Chrissy is a godsend! We were introduced to Chrissy by accident by a neighbor who absolutely raved about her dog walker. We had always wanted to get a dog walker for our dog but have trust issues and never took the plunge. After our neighbor expressed her adoration and trust for Chrissy, we reached out and met with her and decided to give her a chance. We couldn't be more happy with our choice and are so grateful she LOVES what she does because it benefits us all! She is organized and flexible, which is very much appreciated. She has a great personality and a kind heart. My dog loves her and looks forward to his outings with Chrissy and the pack. She sends and posts pictures of our pup when they're out on their adventures and sends you updates when she's planning to arrive and after she drops off your pup. Couldn't be more happy with our experiences thus far and are happy to continue working with Chrissy! Camp Puppies is a legit business (licensed and bonded) that can be trusted. I highly recommend you reach out and take advantage of Chrissy's wonderful talents and services! Thank you, Chrissy and Camp Puppies, for all that you do!
Kacy has been the best bud and walker for our wiggly, reactive pitbull Lola. She also walks our dog Radar who is a shelter doggo that is still learning not to pull. Kacy takes them on long walks and trips to fun parks that they look forward to each week. Our whole family loves Kacy! <3
My family LOVES camp puppies. My two dogs get to vacation when we vacation :) Chrissy takes such great care of them and always keeps us up to speed with adorable pics and messages. She is flexible and accommodating, trustworthy and reliable but most importantly FUN and LOVING!!!!!
Camp Puppies is absolutely the best. My dog, Winston absolutely adores Chrissy. Chrissy treats all her pups like her own. You know your pup is in great hands with the many photos you receive as well as an amazing Instagram page @camppuppies. 5 out of 5 stars. I would give more if I could! I love Camp Puppies! She's dependable and trustworthy. If you're looking for a place for your pup, this is it!
We LOVE Kacy and so does our pup! She has known him since he was a tiny baby and I think he may love her more than us, lol! She is kind, loving and overall amazing with him! Highly highly recommend her services! We are so lucky to know her!!
I work for Sony Pictures on the business side. Sony’s reputation is for high quality and - above all - trust. Joe exemplifies those qualities in spades. We have known him and used his services for almost a year now and trust him with our pup - Chase. Our family adores Chase - he is an integral part of our family. We cannot recommend Joe and Puppy Play Time enough. Chase looks forward to the play dates with Joe and his canine friends. Joe is warm, caring and friendly. He is also extremely conscientious and punctual. Joe loves what he does and we (including Chase) appreciate and love Joe.
Joe is the best thing that’s happened to my rescue pup since being adopted. She’s struggled to open up and I also feel bad for leaving her during my long hours at work. I found Joe on google and gave him a shot… the cute pup pics Sold me! My dog now is a different dog… she shakes less around new dogs and tail is up and wagging! She actually played for the first time with our cat! I’ve never seen her play at all, ever, before this. Joe is very accommodating with last minute requests and charges a reasonable price for full day daycare. I trust Joe implicitly. Also, he’s better than dog whisperer!! :) I’m very jealous of her.. beach walks, fresh air, and lots of new buddies!
Joe is the absolute best, an absolute true "dog whisperer". He takes such great care of my puppy during the day. My dog is always so happy to see Joe and the other dogs upon arriving. He takes such great care of her, promoting dog socialization and exercise. Joe is communicative, trustworthy and easy to work with. He always responds quickly and is available to help at a drop of a hat. Also, the pictures he sends me of my dog during the day are incredible! I love working with Joe and my dog is happier because of the time she spends with him. 10/10 recommend!
Joe takes such great care of my puppy Otis. He sends me multiple pictures throughout my day in office and is prompt in all communication. He takes them on so many adventures, visiting various beaches and parks. I know my puppy is in good hands when I drop him off with Joe!
Joe is the absolute best. My little baby (his name is Dobby) has separation anxiety and so it is hard for me to leave him alone when I go to work. When he sees Joe, he literally jumps for joy. Joe and the other pups he takes care of get attention, mental stimulation, and physical exercise. I am so grateful to have found Puppy Play Time! (Last photo is just a cute close up of the one who is mine :) )
Joe is such a great dog sitter! He excels at ensuring my dogs safety, and provides fun outdoor exercise or indoor entertainment and occasional rest with constant care / supervision. My dog always comes home happy and tired in the best way possible!
Joe is THE BEST! My pup loves going to the best puppy party in LA. Perfect set up for play inside and out- lots of long walks and pics sent throughout the day. I couldn't be happier to send my baby for play time with Joe. she always comes back happy and pooped from all the FUN. Highly recommend Puppy Play Time :)
Joe is AMAZING! My dog is excited to see him each and every time. He takes care of them like his own. Very flexible and adaptable to fit your schedule. LIFE SAVER many times when I was in need.
Joe has been incredible for us and for our pup! He is always available even on short notice and picks up and drops off our pup even as early as 6am. He always has the dogs out and about with fun walks around town and to the beach. He keeps us updated with adorable pictures and he is easy to stay in contact with throughout the day. Joe is great and our dog has the best time with him!
Joe has been helping me out with my dog Penny for around 2 months now and I couldn’t be happier that I found him! Joe takes amazing care of Penny and I would recommend him to anyone that’s looking for a great dog sitter! He is AMAZING with all of the pups that he watches and each week when he picks my dog up, she is sooo excited to see him! He takes them on adventures to different beaches and hikes around LA each week, not to mention he sends the best updates and pictures throughout the day! Needless to say, I’m so happy that I found such an amazing person to trust with my pup!
