Mina personally manages all bookings and client communications. The walks and pet sitting services are provided by our vetted team of 13 trained professionals, all hand-chosen by Amy and Mina. Every team member meets our high standards for experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals.
During overnight pet sitting, your dog stays in the comfort of your own home. The service includes an evening walk, dinner, sleepover, morning walk, and breakfast. You receive a full report card at the end of the stay showing everything that happened. Potty break notifications keep you updated in real-time, and you can request additional updates any time. A Pup Day Care add-on is also available if you want extra activity and socialization during the day.
For walks, you receive an after-visit care card with a summary of your dog's visit, GPS tracking of the route, potty break notes, photos, and videos. Care cards are sent automatically via email within 10 minutes of the service being completed. For overnight stays, you get real-time potty break notifications, photos and videos throughout the stay, and a full end-of-stay report card. You will never have to wonder how your dog is doing.
Every service includes attention to detail that goes beyond basic pet care. If it is raining, we check for raincoats and towels. If a pet seems low energy, we notice and inform the owner. Real-time updates and check-ins ensure you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. All team members are emotionally intelligent and trained to ensure pet safety, comfort, and happiness.
Amy started Betches Walking Betches after a chance encounter in the park playing frisbee with a friend's dog. That night, she created a profile on a dog walking app but realized it took a massive cut of earnings and lacked proper vetting. After speaking with friends about how difficult it was to find reliable caregivers, she knew she could do better. Amy left her six-figure tech job and launched Betches Walking Betches on March 9, 2023. Within the first month, she had 30 clients through word-of-mouth referrals alone.
Betches Walking Betches has a dedicated team of 13 professionals. All team members are hand-chosen based on their experience, volunteer work, and genuine love for animals. Each caregiver is insured, background checked, NDA-signed, and Small Animal CPR and First Aid certified. Many have backgrounds in animal care, and the team includes at least one vet technician. Every caregiver is emotionally intelligent and committed to treating pets like their own.
We take a holistic approach focused on attention to detail. We do not just "clock in and clock out." Our caregivers notice the little things like checking for raincoats, noticing energy changes, reaching out when something seems off, and going the extra mile. One of our walkers, a vet technician, noticed a lump on a dog's chest during a daily walk. The team is built on reliability, consistency, and trust with relationships, not just transactions.
We serve dog owners on the Westside of Los Angeles, specifically in Brentwood, Santa Monica, Venice, and surrounding neighborhoods. We work with pet parents who need reliable, consistent care for their dogs whether they are at work, traveling, or need regular exercise and socialization for their pups. Our services are ideal for busy professionals, families, and anyone who wants peace of mind knowing their pet is receiving exceptional care.
Amy has 15+ years of hands-on experience with dogs and animal care. She previously worked in the tech industry before transitioning to pet care full-time. After realizing the gap in reliable, trustworthy pet care services in LA, she launched Betches Walking Betches on March 9, 2023. Within the first month, she had 30 clients through word-of-mouth referrals alone. Amy was featured in VoyageLA Magazine where she shared her journey from corporate burnout to independent business owner.
