My dog is my best friend in the world and I trust Melissa and her team to take care of him. Since they started walking him, I've definitely noticed he is more calm and loving when I get home from work. Their service also helps me get through the day because I get a text with pictures or videos of the walk. My friends and family always comment on how cool it is that they leave a journal on my counter which documents each walk with little notes and stories. Melissa and her team have gone above and beyond to take care of my dog.

My pup Stitch had his TPLO surgery this last February, and couldn't go to his usual day care during…read morethe recovery period. As my work and life keeps me away from home overnight regularly, I needed someone to help with walks and care. Ellen and her team at Highland Bark came highly recommended by the day care Stitch goes to, and they sure delivered on that! They set up a walking and feeding schedule around my work schedule, and when Stitch wasn't comfortable with a house sitter during a trip to the east coast for me, they put together a thrice-daily walking and feeding schedule for him while I was out of town, really pulling through while I was away! I can't say enough good things about this team of dog lovers! I couldn't have gotten through this surgery without them!

She is also a lovely person - and has a heart of gold for my little sweeties! She also conducts the visits herself rather than farming the work out to subs and staff - so I always know who is in my house with my pets.

From the very first meeting, it was clear that she genuinely loves dogs and takes her job seriously. Yarim managed to earn the trust of both almost immediately, which speaks volumes. She's incredibly reliable, communicative, and attentive. Every walk is handled with care and professionalism--she makes sure our dog gets the exercise, mental stimulation, and love they need while we're at work or out for the day. Yarim always updates us with photos, notes about how the walk went, and any behavior changes she notices, which shows just how observant and responsible she is. One of the things I appreciate most is how flexible and understanding she is with scheduling. Life can get unpredictable, but she always does her best to accommodate us when we need last-minute help. She's also helped reinforce training we've been working on, which has made a noticeable difference in both of our dogs' leash manners. Above all, Yarim treats our dogs like they're her own. She's kind, patient, and genuinely invested in their well-being. That peace of mind--to know they're in good hands when we're not home--is priceless. If you're looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and professional dog walker who will go above and beyond for your pets, Yarim is the one. Our dog adores her, and so do we.

So I feel so lucky to have found Sitter4Paws!!! I first spoke with Ryan and I was so impressed. He spent 30 minutes on the phone with me just making sure he knew everything about my cats and how to best sit them and make sure that they weren't just taken care of but made happy and loved!! I'm going on vacation soon and it is soooo nice to be away knowing that my girls ( kitties) are in the best hands they could be in. No anxiety here! I'll end off with saying one of the best parts is that the sitter sends us lots of photos of our kitties to show that everything is being taking care of and their as happy as can be. Eric Bruskotter

A former TV editor, Eric is a smart & organized guy who decided he'd rather be outside with dogs than hunched over a computer. He is very responsible and generally takes dogs out 1-on-1 rather than some services that stick 10 dogs in a truck. He does neighborhood 30 minute walks for $20. The downside is he really is focused on Venice, Mar Vista, Southern Santa Monica. If you are in the area he covers, he is a great choice to walk your dog. If not, he can probably give you a referral to another walker. He will also offer coaching to new dog owners with puppies on the basics of getting the right collar, training, etc. though he does not do "dog training" per se.
