Pet Waggin' Pet Care is a full-service pet care company serving Long Beach and Signal Hill areas. As a business, we are proud of the reputation we have built by being passionate and committed to providing Long Beach with excellent and trusted pet care. We pride ourselves on having caring and dedicated employees who are committed to the individual needs of each and every pet in our care. Whether you need a pet sitter or a dog walker, we have you covered.
HISTORY
Pet Waggin’ was established in 2006 when Mary Ellen Hobbs switched gears from a 20-year career as a sales professional in the hospitality industry to a labor of love. Starting this company combined her love of animals with the ‘social aspect she found so attractive’ in sales (Read her story).
We have been recognized as the Best Pet Sitter and Best Dog Walker in both the Press Telegram Reader’s Choice Awards and the Long Beach Post, Best of Long Beach Awards several years consecutively, which we are very proud of. The community of Long Beach is extremely important to us and we strive to continue to be the best pet sitter for all of you!

Community:
We are committed to serving our local Long Beach community. We see community as more than a place; we see community as an action and strive to be good citizens of our beloved city.
Our foremost priority is the safety and security of our clients, their pets, and their property. That's why we make sure to carefully screen each of our sitters before starting. Our staff members are dedicated employees, not contractors. Having our staff work together as a team ensures that clients receive quality consistent care from each member. In addition to the multiple interviews, background checks, and reference checks, we also dedicate a lot of time and resources on training for our staff. And let me tell you, it is SO worth it.
