I truly enjoyed caring for Lily and Max in Gayle and Peter’s beautiful home. The dogs have sweet personalities and are easy to care for with Gayle’s detailed instructions. The home is very comfortable and I loved taking the dogs on their daily walk in the neighborhood. Gayle and Peter are wonderful people. They are kind, generous, and a joy to know. Highly recommend!
My recent house sit Patricia was an extremely positive experience. Communication was easy and straightforward. Their home was delightful to stay in, providing a comfortable environment and situated in a fantastic location in the English countryside. I thoroughly enjoyed the numerous walks with Maisie in the beautiful surrounding area. Their pets, Maisie and Jess were a joy to take care of, thanks to the detailed and clear instructions provided. The opportunity to care for such well-behaved and lovable pets made my stay even more enjoyable. I want to extend my gratitude to Patricia & Steve for their trust and hospitality. I'd highly recommend a house sit for them to anyone seeking a pleasant and rewarding experience.
Monica and her family are wonderful and were very accommodating. Juniper is a bundle of joy who doesn't mind lounging but she definitely prefers being active or chasing her ball, which is only natural since she's growing up in Bend. They have a beautiful home in a great neighborhood, and your walking distance to a dog park, which makes Juniper very happy. I had a great time and you will too!
I cannot express enough how we enjoyed this sit! Maïté was super welcoming and kind and we never had any problems with communication. Her home is bright, super cozy and was super clean when we came there. We truly felt at home! The location is great as well: it’s close to public transport, trains and the area itself is beautiful and quiet. Pipi and Puka are super adorable! They don’t require a lot of time to be cared for but we enjoyed playing with them so much! They are super sweet and we fell in love with them from the moment we met! Maïté has thought about any little detail when it comes to her home and cats. The feeders are automatic, the litter boxes easy to clean, as well as anything else needed was easy to find. In general it was a super pleasant sit for us and we would love to do it again! 🤍
Such a fantastic experience. Freya, Lizzie and Maxxie have all the character in the world. As do the ducks, Alpacas, and the house! Tons of wild flowers, gorgeous local bridlepaths to wander with the dogs and a bird list that ran to over 30 species just from the local walking. Masham and Ripon nearby and this was genuinely glorious fun. Jan provided an organised list of tasks and needs so you can get into the flow. Don’t get me wrong, you put the work in to start the day. But for me that was a great way to start the day. Thanks Jan!
What an awesome sit! Bebe was such happy, sweet, goofy and laid back little lady. We had so much fun hanging out with her and enjoyed biking around the area. Kim and Norman were incredibly welcoming and easy to communicate with. They have a beautiful home in a lovely neighborhood right by a pond. Would highly recommend this sit - everything was great!

So sweet
We are Siamese if you please, we are Siamese if you don’t please. I have the cutest sisters in the world, Kabuki & TinkerBelle, they are particularly Siamese. Boy do they talk. Let me interpret what they are saying for you. “We hate when you leave us alone, however if you MUST, then please have that nice Lady from Fetch, Leslie come visit us, at least. She pets us, she feeds us and gives us treats, and keeps our box clean. We know Tammy at the Fetch office keeps you up to date and scheduled but it’s Leslie who sends you pictures to melt you heart and make you come home sooner. We don’t want to have to leave you reminders, or wake you up to tell you again, just listen: call Fetch, and come home sooner……” I have to agree with them.
I called to book a pet taxi for my dog and myself and spoke with Tom, who was patient, knowledgeable, kind, and very responsive. He referred me to a great guy's pet taxi service, who was also quite responsive, and he agreed to help me with my beloved pet who had a seizure early this month and needs a check up. I am so grateful for all the help I received and the wonderful referral. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Tom at Fetch.
They go above and beyond to find a sitter and their sitters are amazing - they treat my dog like their own!!
Would like.
My petsitter was Jess! I boarded my cat Winnie with her for 3 weeks. Jess was really reassuring and frequently sent photos and updates. I was worried because it was such a long stay but I’m really happy with the care my baby received :)
I was blessed to find Jessica at the spur of the moment and what an amazing person and sitter she is for both my cat babies! Took great care of them , trusted her completely with my home as she was able to stay over for 5 days and her communication is impeccable along with great daily videos and pictures of my babies. Thank you thank you Jessica and Pawsome Pasadena Pet Boarding!
I worked with Jessica and she was outstanding! I was very nervous leaving my cat with her so we we arranged a meeting beforehand and within 10 minutes my cat was all over her. Even when I had my flight delayed by nearly a week (thanks Southwest), I texted Jessica and asked for extra days and she was more than willing. I’m absolutely going to use her again.
We had Natalie watch our kitty for 11 days. It was the first time our cat left home. Natalie was wonderful. She was very responsive and texted us each day with updates, photos, and sometimes videos. She even offered to FaceTime so my son could see his kitty. We picked up our cat and we knew she took good care of him. I would highly recommend Natalie. She takes care of lots of pets of all kinds, too.
Very detailed and friendly customer service. However, they're booked solid so book you pooch early
Very nice
Riding sea breeze to glide high into sunset cloud.
Megan and Chris at Pasadena Paws are truly amazing. From pack walks to boarding plus a few sessions of lessons over the past 6 years, each of our two dogs has acquired important skills while we continue to learn to work with them to prevent bad habits. There is so much love at Pasadena Paws; Megan and Chris are the kindest and the most talented dog whisperers!
We have entrusted our fur babies with Pasadena Paws for coming on a decade now... we LOVE them. We occasionally have to leave LA for extended periods of time and the pups could not be in better hands. it says a whole lot when drop off the dogs and they dont even look back at us... they just run onto the property because they know they are heading to summer camp. Pasadena Paws are extremely knowledgeable about dog training. they are caring and just nice people.
Pasadena Paws are AMAZING! My dog has been a part of their pack for the last 5 years and he loves the daycare which is structured & calm. I know he is in safe, capable hands when he boards with them and I never have to worry. The entire team is trained thoroughly, they are kind, dependable, knowledgeable & experienced. Highly recommend!
Chris and Megan are incredible! Our dog Bud is so happy going to Pasadena Paws every week. They've trained him (and us) to manage Bud's energy and walking skills. We're so grateful for their guidance.
Pasadena Paws are the best trainers in the world. They have helped my Foster’s and rescues in ways that I never thought were possible! They are the most incredible, highly trustworthy, kind, compassionate, and brilliant team!
I cannot speak highly enough of Chris and Megan and Pasadena Paws. My very timid Formosan Mountain Dog went to them for daycare for over a year when I lived in CA. They worked on her confidence, advocated for her, gave her massages (yep, this helps the timid ones), and helped her get socialized in a positive way. She came out of her shell immensely! I worked with them one-on-one on leash skills and reactivity (my other dog is a reactive husky) and both of my dogs walk relaxed on leash in a pack-walk style. Pasadena Paws has given me an amazing set of resources and tools - literature, leashes, training sessions and remote guidance. The way I interact with my dogs completely changed after working with them and despite me now living in NC, Chris and Megan never hesitate to when I need advice remotely on issues or challenges that pop up. I'm truly grateful for the work they have and continue to put in for me and my dogs!
Pasadena Paws, under the amazing direction and care of Megan and Chris, is an extension of our family. For many years we have relied upon their care and guidance for daycare, pack walks and boarding for our very insecure and "high anxiety" older rescue/adoptee. Her behavioral challenges resulted in destructive behaviors when left alone (separation anxiety) and Chris and Megan worked with us to alleviate much of that tension and in the process our pup adjusted and attached to them as surrogate caregivers. Glaucoma and painful eye pressure resulted in blindness in one eye and eventual removal, but she was still able to enjoy her friends at Pasadena Paws for regular pack walks and as a much older dog, still excited when going for a play date. We know that we have found not just a convenient place for boarding and extra care for our beloved pets, but an environment dedicated to making sure that all animals are given the highest priority. Pasadena Paws is special in every way!
Fritz has been going on pack walks and boarding with Megan and Chris for almost nine years and he's always a happy camper. Then we met Mango, the new addition to our family, through them. They're the best. A huge shout out to their entire team as well.
Love bringing my dog here. I was searching for a daycare that provided structure and would help me provide regular, healthy socialization for my dog. Pasadena Paws was recommended to me by a trainer that I really trust. I've been so happy with the team there.
We don’t trust many people with our pets, but Pasadena Paws are one of the few that we can relay on to take the best care of our dogs. We’ve been using them for 8 years now for boarding, pack walking, and training, and couldn’t be happier with the services they provide. You can tell how much Megan and Chris care about the dogs they look after. I can’t recommend them enough!
Dogs and owners are happy with the care. The walking service is dependable and tailored to that dog.
Erin and I go way back and I've used her services for years - she is the very best! My dog loves her and is always a happier boy after his walks. I love that she's always quick to respond, punctual, and sends updates & photos. It really puts me at ease and I highly recommend her services. Thank you Erin, we are grateful for you!
Erin is the most loving and wonderful caretaker we’ve ever met! She gave us constant updates on our elderly pup alongside pictures and videos while we were away. We trust her like family and would recommend Erin and The Barkside to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful caretaker for their pets. ♥️♥️♥️
I am SO happy to have found Erin & Barkside LA!! Erin is incredibly responsive, reliable and took the best care of my pup while we were travelling. I received a ton of photo updates which gave me peace of mind. I can’t recommend Erin and her team enough, they are amazing!!
We very recently hired Erin to help with our dogs in the afternoons. We asked her to do a quick meet and greet because we were desperate for the coming week. It just so happens that Erin proved herself within the first 10 minutes of being with our dogs. Our entire complex was doing fire alarm testing, and we had forgotten. Erin was kind and thoughtful and made sure to stay with our dogs beyond what she was contracted to do to make sure that they were safe. Her communication skills are excellent. And she's a problem solver. But more than anything it's how much she connects to the animals and how much they really love her. She's proven to be incredibly responsible, trustworthy and a genuinely nice person.
Erin is the best!! Totally reliable, flexible with scheduling, and extremely communicative. Plus - my dog is obsessed with her. I have recommended her to friends and she is always a hit! I also love that she sends photos from her visits. Can’t recommend her highly enough.
Couldn't be more relieved to find The Barkside with Erin + the team. They always go above and beyond to accommodate our often, last minute needs. It's such a relief to find reliable & trustworthy dog sitters / walkers. They also send photos and updates on the pup, which is a nice bonus!
The Barkside LA is great! I work with Erin who has been my dog walker for several years. She is certified and insured and charges less than other services in the area. Always reliable, communicative and responsible, Erin makes the process easy and enjoyable. Even better than the emails I get with photos of my dog on her walk, is the peace of mind I have knowing my dog is well cared for, safe, and having fun. I highly recommend contacting them for dog walking or pet sitting.
I was referred to the Barkside LA by a good friend and I haven't regretted it since. Erin has created such a great walking team and is always on time, makes sure the temperature is good in my apartment for my pup, and makes sure he gets a good walk in. She's very communicative and is very accommodating with her clients! I highly recommend if you need a trusted walker to love your pup while you're away!
Erin [the barkside] is the best! She genuinely cares for our dogs (and they love her back); is in incredible communicator; and takes the best pictures every. single. time. (Seriously, it’s remarkable.) We are very picky about who we let around our furr babies and couldn’t recommend this service more!
Erin is so great, reliable, and very easy to communicate with, not to mention our dog loves her.
Tiger is an absolute lifesaver! Since moving to Los Angeles this year, we’ve been on the hunt for reliable pet care for our high energy dog, Poppy. Tiger’s active small-group adventures are perfect for her, and we're so grateful to have found her. Poppy has stayed with Tiger several times for stays ranging from 3 to up to 10 days, and we always have complete peace of mind knowing she’s in loving hands. Tiger’s updates and photos make us feel like Poppy’s on a better vacation than us most of the time! She absolutely loves her off-leash adventures and exploring new trails and creeks. Tiger is incredibly accommodating and has been a pleasure to work with. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to any pet owner looking for exceptional care.
Tiger is amazing. We found our sweet pup off the street and he is very shy and has a tendency to run away when we leave him with other people. Tiger listened attentively to his history and has been amazing with him, accomidating all his quirks. He loves walking with Tiger’s pack! She gives the dogs amazing adventures every day. Tiger always makes sure to give our shy guy a little extra attention. She’s obviously a very experienced dog owner. She’s also been very flexible with our schedules. She is kind, responsible, and knowledgeable. We feel very lucky to have her around.
I have relied on tiger for all of my dog boarding needs and the occasional dog adventures for the last two years. Tiger is very reliable and really great with the dogs. I love that my dog gets social time with other dogs, a ton of exercise and always comes home happy and tired. Tiger is easy to schedule with, and provides pick up and drop off, making her service people friendly too.
There is no more wonderful image than Tiger's van full of happy dogs pulling up to your house. And then my dogs see it and lose their minds with excitement in anticipation for another fun hiking adventure. They always come back tired and happy. Tiger is awesome and love your dogs like her own. I would highly recommend!
I cannot say enough good things about Tiger. I know my Rhoda is in the best possible hands from the moment she jumps into the adventure van, until the time she returns home exhausted, happy and calm. I have been using Pet Care by Tiger for 5 years for everything from dog boarding to dog walking to dog hiking. My job is very demanding and requires very long hours. Many times I wouldn’t have known what to do without the love and kindness of Tiger and her attention to my baby girl Rhoda. Rhoda’s favorite is dog hiking when she gets to be a dog, run off leash and socializing with other dogs on the trails and dog beaches. Rhoda is beyond content, and I get to love her guilt free knowing she’s had an amazing time with Tiger.
We have used Tiger to care for our dog for over 3 years and she is amazing. She takes the dogs on long hikes in the mountains every day and our high energy dog loves it! Tiger loves Scout like her own and Scout can't wait to get into the van with Tiger whenever she picks her up. We highly recommend Pet Care by Tiger.
Tiger is THE BEST! I needed coverage for a five-night stay for an elderly/needy pet. My dog was totally cared for and entertained, too -- and I was updated with photos throughout his stay. I feel so lucky to have found such a safe and fun place for my dog to stay. Thank you, Tiger : )
Tiger was a lifesaver when it came to taking care of our home and two cats. While on vacation we used to go with the huge, nationally known, home/pet care company to take care of things, but a couple of slip-ups gave us pause and made us look elsewhere this time around. Pet Care by Tiger have all the bases covered. They made sure the food and water bowls stayed full, cleaned the litter box, checked the mail, and made sure the home was secure while we were gone. We have a smart home, so I was consistently checking remotely to make sure everything was ok the first couple of days while out of town, but after seeing the thoroughness of Tiger, I quit checking after seeing that she had things under control. The quality of service was fantastic, Tiger is always cordial and personable, and to top it off, I got to support a local business. If you need to be able to enjoy your vacation or need to travel for whatever reason, I strongly recommend Pet Care By Tiger.
Tiger has been nothing short of wonderful to our timid Covid dog. Tiger spent months gaining her trust and showing our dog how to behave and have fun in a pack. Tiger is so loving and clearly understands animal behavior. We can’t thank her or recommend her enough.
Tiger is the best pet sitter. Our dog comes back to us happy, healthy and tired. If you want top notch pet care, go with Pet Care by Tiger.
We love Fetch! The dog sitters are wonderful, caring, and trustworthy. Tom (owner) is so responsive and helpful. I’m so glad we found this service for both the midday walks and for overnight care for our pug when we are out of town. We highly recommend!
We have used Fetch- San Gabriel Valley for multiple trips over the past year. They have given two of our cats medication as well as providing excellent kitty over all care. Tom and Daniel are great. They even checked our 6 foster kittens and mom for a day while we went Disneyland. Highly recommend.
Tom and his Fetch team are wonderful. Daniel is an excellent caretaker. My cats are well cared-for by him and they are happy to see him. :). I have been using Fetch for about two or three years and have had a 100% perfect experience. I recommend Fetch highly.
Tom is the nicest and easy going owner but also very responsible and professional. MarieClaire who walks our dogs is a very competent and diligent walker. Our dogs get excited each time she comes to pick them up and go off happily. Would recommend them in a heartbeat!
Fetch Pet Care and in particular Marieclaire has taken wonderful care of my two cats while I've been away several times now. They are easy to work with, take great care of my animals, provide daily pictures and updates and all at good prices.
I recommend Fetch for your pet sitting needs. I've been using them for over 5 years and every sitter we've had has been responsive and caring. They will come and feed and sit with your pets. They also do a few other minor housekeeping actions like getting your mail. Highly recommended.
Happy to have found Fetch and Tom. I feel very comfortable leaving my dogs in his care. Tom is friendly, has great communication, and understands my dogs personalities.
Reliable and trustworthy service.
We had the BEST experience with LA Pet Sitters! Thank you so much to Brooke and Julia for taking the most incredible care of our two high maintenance kitties. Julia is the best cat sitter we have ever had. Our cats loved her and I could tell how much she loved them and cared for them as if they were her own babies. They require special care including medication and being separated while we are away and everything was handled with such ease. From communication to following instructions and leaving our place so clean, the entire experience was amazing. We had such piece of mind knowing our kitties were so well taken care of and are so grateful to have found our new favorite pet sitter! ❤️
Our cat sitter, Paw, was great. She really made us feel comfortable and safe. Everything was easy and our pets were happy!
We had a great experience with LA pet sitting! Our pet sitter was Emily and she took great care of our two cats while we were out of town for the week. She sent us updates after each visit and it was great to know she was there keeping them company while we were gone. Communication and coordination was also super easy. We're planning to go out of town again soon and we'll definitely use this service again.
Thanks to Brooke and Dottie for clear, prompt communication during booking and great service while my husband and I were away. We came home to find our two cats (9 and 19 years) healthy and engaged. The mail was beautifully organized and easy to find, plants in great shape. I loved the daily updates. Even before we left town, my mind was at ease, but Dottie's cheerful communication with photos/videos made stress impossible. Already looking forward to our next vacation. We'll call on LA Pet Sitting again!
We had a wonderful experience with LA Pet Sitting. It was the first time we had ever left our cat for more than a night, so we were a bit nervous about the trip we were taking. Luckily for us everyone at LPS were so professional and understanding. They took care of our cat perfectly, and gave us daily updates with pictures, so that we could always know our little guy was safe and sound in their hands. I also love that it's a local business instead of an app. It gave me extra comfort knowing that this business has been in the area for a decade+, serving the community. I couldn't recommend it more. Brooke and Paulette, were fantastic.
My husband and I are quote OCD about our pet care. We basically left a booklet with detailed instructions to care for our four fur babies. These instructions were emailed to our sitter directly so she can review and ask questions before our time away. We couldn't be happier with the services Julianne provided for our pets. I was truly happy with her services and my four cats seemed happy too! I loved seeing pictures of my cats looking so happy and playful. Two of my fur babies have high anxiety and one is mildly feral, but she gave them their own space and allowed them to warm up to her on their own terms. Our oldest cat, 18, has separation anxiety and doesn't like being alone, so I really appreciated the extra attention and care she gave to him. He is also on a prescription diet but loves to sneak up on my other cats' food bowl. She was very vigilent and assured he stuck to his own bowl to prevent advancement with his kidney disease. Definitely would recommend! 🖤 Thank you, Brooke for identifying Julianne for us!
Wonderful! I've used them a bunch of times. Totally flexible and highly communicative. They send the cutest pictures of our fur babes so we are comfortable while we are out and about.
I engaged LA Pet Sitting shortly after to moving to LA with my 3 cats and my dog. My work had unexpected travel and I was able to communicate via the web portal and get an intake visit pretty quickly. I was impressed with their system and the thoroughness of their information collection. An in person visit to meet the pets and go over feeding and medications was very well done. Alexia was attentive and great giving meds and following specialized feeding instructions. One of my cats has a bowel disease and caring for her is not easy. The updates were reassuring while I was away and in my opinion this could not have gone better. I would absolutely recommend them.
Sinead was great! She cleaned up a couple of messes the kitties made, brought in packages, and wrote thorough reports on how each cat was doing every day. It gave us peace of mind while we traveled over the holidays. Getting to meet her a couple days in advance and show her around was nice too. Would definitely recommend LA Pet Sitting and Sinead!
I have been using LA Pet Sitting for years to take care of my three cats. All of the sitters I have used have been wonderful - reliable, personable, and caring towards my pets. They take time to sit with my cats and play with them, as well as to write detailed notes on their activities. I know my cats appreciate the extra attention, and I am relieved to be able to go on vacation and not worry about their welfare. I will continue to use LAPS, and I highly recommend their company to other pet owners, as their prices are reasonable and their staff is professional and dependable.
