Paws Up LA

We love Carla! She’s amazing with the dogs and they love her so much!
She sends us cute texts with pictures and updates on how they’re doing every time she comes to walk them.
I would recommend Paws Up LA to anyone who wants a great reliable dog walker!

Carla rules. Always easy going, accommodating, and most importantly– great with our pets. We love her!

Paws up LA is the absolute BEST and a dream to have taking care of our dog. They are so easy to get a hold of and have helped us immensely through a few emergencies including a very sick dog and checking in on the house and dog when our home alarm went off.
Carla has been incredible with our dog, we can even tell a difference with how calm he is when we get home after she takes care of him mid-​day. She sends an adorable picture, and above all else is extremely responsible. Paws up is an upstanding professional local business and it is pleasure to have them caring for our dog!

Carla is the best in the business! She always takes amazing care of our dog and sends us the best pictures during her walks.

Carla has been amazing. We have an indoor cat with his own feeder, who hates being boarded, so Carla has been great for coming over and petting him and helping him not feel too lonely when we’re on long trips. His behavior is so much better when we return, and the peace of mind of knowing Carla will be prompt and handle anything that arises is reassuring. She has also handled feeding the fish, bringing in mail, watering plants, turning on lights, and taking photos of the pets.
Also, after we moved, we were able to send her our door code last minute when we needed a check-​in, and she handled it with no problem. And we also love being able to pay from a phone when we’re traveling.
Thanks so much Carla!

Finding the right dog walker can be a daunting task, you’re trusting someone with keys to your house and more importantly, your baby! I had heard horror stories in the past of dog walkers getting caught moving leashes and letting dogs out to pee, instead of actually walking them, but Cybele & Paws Up LA has put my mind at ease. Cybele has been walking my chihuahua Penny for a year and a half and has always come through for me. I have a busy schedule that does change frequently, but Cybele is always flexible and finds a way to accommodate my needs. I added a 2^nd chihuahua puppy to our household recently who was very skittish and untrained, but Cybele has managed Lily with so much ease! I trust Cybele with my babies and that’s the most meaningful endorsement possible. I’d recommend her to any dog lover in LA! Not to mention, she sends me killer photos from her walk that are a great mid-​work day silver lining that just puts a smile on my face to know my dogs are being taken care of.

I cannot say enough about Carla & Cybele. They take care of my pup like she is their own and based upon the texted pics I get each day my dog adores them too. I took about a year break from daily walks when I was out of town for work but as soon as I returned they assured me my dog would back on their schedule. And she is! 5 days a week with added dinners in the evening. You guys are amazing.

Carla and her sister are the best.
My wife and I know Mollie are in good hands whenever we leaver her in their care.
Plus, Mollie gets so excited whenever she sees them, we know she is loved too.
Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Carla is the BEST.
Like many pet owners, I’m a total helicopter parent when it comes to my 4 year old Cockapoo. And Carla totally gets that. She takes all your personal idiosyncrasies seriously (how you feed your pet, any sensitive issues the pet may have when out for a walk, whatever it may be). Whenever I come home from work after Carla has walked the boy, he’s tired and happy. What else could ya ask for?
Bottom line– Carla is understanding, professional, and a dog whisperer of sorts. Only the best things to say about her from this long-​time client.

I trust NO ONE with my dogs. People always say «ya ya, my dogs are my kids» but mine REALLY are. So I take dog walking, and dog sitting VERY seriously.
Last year I took a job where I was suddenly unable to work from home or return home at lunch and needed to get a dog walker. After getting some personal referrals from neighbors, I learned about Carla and Paws Up LA. Carla came to my house to meet the dogs, and we went over all the details with regards to safety of the dogs, and keeping the house locked up.
I have NEVER felt uncomfortable with Carla taking care of my babies. She really goes above and beyond. She will give them medicine, change their food and water, and even swap out their puppy pads if needed. (And we have an OLD yorkie who can not hold it and doesn’t have great aim, so sometimes that’s quite a mess)
And my dogs LOVE her. I’ve been there a couple of times when she’s come to walk them and they totally freak out. My dogs are not the easiest to walk, but she takes all 3 of them like its no problem.
I would highly recommend anyone who is needing a dog walker, but feeling a little uncomfortable with the idea of entrusting the safety of your house and babies with a stranger. She’s THE BEST.

We are so lucky that Carla lives in Atwater. My husband and I recently got a puppy and needed someone to walk and care for our Mollie when we are at work or have a late meeting. Carla is professional, trustworthy and can help us out last minute if need be. She has a key and we are completely comfortable with Carla in our home. The most important thing is Mollie LOVES Carla. When she sees her she jumps and whines and wants to be picked up. We cannot even walk past Carla’s house without Molls pulling us towards her door. Happy Happy that our baby is in great hands with Carla and we know she is safe and well taken care of.

Carla is that absolute best. I have a finicky dog that doesn’t get along with other dogs and is afraid of so many things– changes in weather, skateboards, windshield wipers. I also have a super adorable easy going dog. When my family got the news that I had to work out of town for six months last year it was nice knowing that who was going to walk the dogs was the least of our worries. She sends us great photo and text updates every day, she’s affordable, and incredibly reliable. Paws Up LA is fantastic!

Carla has been walking my dog for over a year and I can not say enough great things about her. She’s so thoughtful, caring and trustworthy. She always sends me an update after the walks and the BEST pictures. So grateful to have found Paws Up LA — I know that my dog is in great hands and is happy!

Cybele and her sister, Carla are the best. Sign-​up process is easy and their service rates are very affordable. My staffy, Tina, has been enjoying her afternoon walk with Cybele 2 – 3 times a week. Cybele is great to work with, punctual, attentive and best of all, she sends me photos of Tina during their walk. I can’t recommend Paws Up LA enough.

There is no better dogwalker then Cybele. She’s punctual, friendly, funny and can send a dam cute picture of your pup on a walk. I have searched for the right fit for a while as my schedule is wanky, but Cybele worked with me on my times and handles my Chi-​mutt with such sweet care. I feel like she «gets» him and all his confidence. Thank you Paws Up LA!

Carla is the best! We’ve had her watch our cats twice, and she’s amazing with them. She’s even gotten pictures of our skittish cat who’s usually afraid of everything (and she takes fantabulous pictures, I have no idea how since my cats are lightning fast…) It’s good to know our pets are in safe hands while we’re gone, and they get a bonus of having glamour shots sent to us while we’re away so my OCD about them being safe isn’t a worry at all! Seriously, five paws up for Paws Up LA, keep being awesome and if you’re thinking about calling them, do it! Carla not only cares about your pets, I think she can talk to them… maybe. I might just be giving her super powers in my head because that would be awesome.

I have three pups that I adore and find it difficult to find someone I am comfortable enough to trust them with. Carla has been wonderful and I love getting the photos and text updates of my pups during/​after her visits. :) It’s comforting to know that Carla loves on my puppies and takes great care of them on her visits.

I cannot give higher praises to Carla and the amazing job she does with the animals — in my case kitties. She is my kitty sitter for life!
She is diligent, friendly, loving, and trustworthy. Do not hesitate to book with her for your next outing.
… She’s watched over my kitties, twice now. This past time for a week. I think my kittys love her more than me! LOL!

These are the most emphatic five stars I have ever left on Unilocal.
After fifteen years of entrusting my cats with a sitter, Carla is by far the most trustworthy, responsive and all around lovely person I have found. I contacted Carla last minute and she rearranged her schedule in order to fit my needs. She took wonderful care of my old girl, who is in faltering health and just had been moved from SF to LA. I was so nervous to leave for a week, but Carla sent daily updates with pictures and videos.
I cannot recommend Carla enough. She is wonderful.

I cannot thank Carla enough for her services. Carla has been walking our dog for the past three months, and she has been absolutely amazing! She has been very flexible and accommodating with our work schedules. Also, she has been very patient with our dog, as he can be very territorial and protective of our home when anyone enters our place. We absolutely love and trust Carla with our dog in our home. The best part of it is that I get so excited to receive a text message and photo of our pup after each walk from Carla! Thanks Carla for taking such great care of him!
