"They are by far the best pet sitting and dog walking service I've used. My dogs adore Laurel, and Laurel is extraordinarily trustworthy and kind. Really, you won't be disappointed with Animal House." - Robyn Weisman (dogs: Blanca and Nubbin, cats: Esther and Simon)
"Laurel and her team genuinely care about their 4 legged clients and treat them as their own. My dogs were always much happier on the days they got their walks, and I was happier knowing they weren't cooped up in the house all day. One of my dogs was diagnosed with cancer and Laurel was almost as upset as I was, which was really touching. It showed me that this isn't just a business to her, she does it because she genuinely loves it. That's a rarity to find these days and I am glad that I did!" -Marna Palmer (Sadie's mom; we are sad to say Cash has left this earth but know he is having a blast in Doggy Heaven)
"We have used several pet sitters for our 2 dogs over the years and these guys are the best. They are very trustworthy, consistent, and great with big dogs. Excellent service for both daily walks and overnight sitting." -Chad Olsen (Chip and Odie's dad)
"We've used Animal House for a couple of years -- they've walked and sat our energetic and unruly boxers and are absolutely the greatest... Todd and Laurel are caring, trustworthy and fantastic with our dogs. I'd recommend them to anyone." -Duncan Paterson (Bruno and Lola's dad)
"Laurel, Mark and team are absolutely fantastic! My co-worker referred me to Laurel and I have been working with her for the last two and half years. Her and her team are great to work with, extremely professional and very reasonably priced compared to other dog walkers in the area. All the dog walkers are extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, caring and fun. Also, Laurel is very accommodating with my schedule as it is always changing with work and last minute trips. I have referred other co-workers to her as well and they all rave about how great the service is. I know my dog looks forward to his afterrnoon walks with his neighborhood friends. All payment is done online through a secured website so its easy and eco-friendly! I highly recommend them!!! Amanda (Charlies mom)
"Laurel, Mark and all of the Animal House Pet Care have been great with Huck. Huck was a rescue dog that was found locked up in a foreclosed home. Because of his size he was not allowed to be adopted by families with children so he had to stay in the shelter for four months. When we first brought him home we knew he needed a little extra training and exercise so my partner found Laurel through a co-worker. He has been trained by both Laurel and Mark and has overcome many of his anxieties. They have turned him into a little gentle man. We will continue to work with AHPC for walking services and training. I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!" - Dawn (Huck's mom)I've used Laurel and her team several times now, while traveling - we like people to stay the night for our menagerie of dogs, birds, chickens, fish and more - they are VERY detail-oriented, the dogs love them, and I feel safe and confident with them living our home while we're away. Huge recommendation. Their rates seem fair too. - Paul and Rick (The Bee, Cooper and Josie's Dads)
I was referred to Laurel and Animal House Pet Care LA by a friend. I
lucked out!! Laurel and Todd and all of her dogwalker/sitters are
awesome. They reliably show up when they say they are going to and
when they do, you can really tell they care about their animals and
clients. You can even schedule your appts with their online
system which is very convenient. I cannot say enough kind words about
Laurel and her company and her staff. Animal House Pet Care LA are the
best!! Oh I forgot to mention how trustworthy they are as well...I've been using them for about a year I think!! - Rhian
"Thank goodness I found them! Todd is our dog walker and he is fantastic. In over 2 years of 5 walks a week, he has never missed a day. He communicates really well...I always know how my dogs are doing. He handles my 2 large, energetic shepherds gently yet firmly and completely pampers my little papillon (he lifts him over the puddles on the walk so his feet don't get dirty). He gives them so much love and the dogs adore him. Laurel runs a great business. I can always reach her and the online system has made things so easy. I get e-mails every other week confirming my appointments and the system automatically bills me and processes my payments. I have been able to schedule last minute with no problem. Animal House has also provided great pet sitting. Even when I'm away on a long trip, I feel comfortable and relieved knowing someone is taking such good care of my dogs (AND my 3 demanding cats.)" - Debby.
Laurel and Mark are a great team. We
had a good vibe about them from the get go. The initial interview with
us and our dog Harper was prompt and friendly. It's a big
responsibility to have someone looking after your pet, let alone a
stranger coming into your house, but Laurel and Mark were very
professional and put us at ease immediately getting to know Harper and
providing references. With their great instincts, love and patience they have helped
to improve Harper's walking skills!!! They also left a brief diary
entry of what happened on each walk that we really liked too. Animal
House Pet Care is a fantastic resource for us, I can
rely on them to walk Harper in the day which is a great weight off our
minds. I would highly recommend them as a dog walking service to anyone! - Will (Harper's dad)
We have spent years trying to find a responsible, caring person/s to
look after our 3 cats & 2 dogs while away. We found okay people
and good people, but not AMAZING people. Until now - Laurel is the
ultimate in professional as well as loving service to your animals.
For the first time ever, our animals were not at all stressed or
haggard looking when we returned home after 10 days. They just looked
at us like 'yeah, so what - you're back!' In fact, our dog trainer
referred us to Laurel and her and Mark worked with our trainer &
'chihuahua with issues' during our absence. Our house was in terrific
shape when we returned - I felt completely confident and secure knowing
that they were there. Laurel & Co. are trustworthy, affordable and
fantastic at communication. I was never worried - and that's a first!
Their online system is also incredibly convenient, I love it. There
is no one better!!! - Tiina (Xera and Rosey's mom)
"Thanks so much again for taking care of Rocky. It was really nice to be away and not to stress out by worrying about him and if he was ok. I felt very comfortable knowing that you were taking care of him." -Ellen P. (Rocky's mom)
