Hi there! I’m looking for a responsible, kind house sitter to stay in my home and take care of my dog, Mac, from December 24th through December 31st. In exchange, you’ll have the entire place to yourself—no cost, just love on Mac and keep the home running while I’m away. I will need references and a background check.
🐶 Meet Mac
Mac is an 8-pound senior chihuahua with spunk, an absolute love bug, and very easy to care for. He loves cuddles, short walks, snacks, and hanging out on soft blankets. He’s friendly, gentle, and happy as long as he’s getting affection and a little company.
🌿 The Home
This is a two-bedroom, 1.5-bath apartment in the Koreatown/Larchmont Village area—central, walkable, and close to great coffee shops, grocery stores, and neighborhood restaurants. The building is quiet, and the unit gets lots a good amount of natural light.
✨ What the Space Is Like:
Primary Bedroom:
A warm, comfortable room with a queen-sized bed, lots of soft pillows, and sliding glass doors that open to a small balcony. There’s a bookcase, plants, and cozy lighting—very relaxing, lived-in, and peaceful.
Second Bedroom [My son's room]
A bright, colorful room with a twin-size daybed, wall art, shelves, and plenty of space. (Mac is pictured in the photo!)
Living Vibes:
The apartment has a warm, artistic feel—plants, books, clean but homey, with a layout that gets great daylight. Hardwood floors, comfortable furniture, and a simple, clean aesthetic.
Bathrooms:
1.5 bathrooms —one connected to the primary bedroom and one off the hall.
🌎 About the Neighborhood
Located right between Koreatown and Larchmont Village, you’ll be in one of the most convenient areas of LA.
Walkable blocks
Plenty of food options & markets
Close to parks and coffee shops
Friendly neighborhood feel with a mix of families and young professionals
🧹 What I’m Hoping For
Just the basics:
Feeding Mac and giving him attention
Short daily walks
Keeping the apartment tidy and cared for
Watering a few plants if needed
Other than that, the space is yours to enjoy while you're here.
If this sounds like a great fit, feel free to reach out—I’d love to chat and see if it’s a match!
Hi! I’m Wally [he/him] — a writer, educator, and single dad [boy and dog] based in Los Angeles. I travel a few times a year for my day job work and creative projects, and when I’m away, I love having someone stay in my home who appreciates a calm, comfortable space and enjoys the company of a very sweet chihuahua named Mac.
Pets are allowed, but it would be better for someone without pets :)
