“I found Sharyl through Rover. She is such a warm, kind hearted and fun loving person; I felt safe to leave my fur babies with her as soon as I met her. Both of my boys (a dog and a cat) are needy and they want to be with humans all the time. Sharyl gave my boys the attention they needed and she even let them sleep in her bed! During our trip, she also sent us pictures and videos to give us updates. I am so happy that I discovered Sharyl; I feel that we hit the jackpot!”



“Sydney seems to love Sunny and comes home very happy. I would recommend her to anyone. She has the perfect dog set up and Sydney goes to his Beach house a lot now! ”


“I’m so grateful that Qi stepped in to look after my dog on such short notice while I was abroad. She kept me updated with daily check-ins, photos, and truly took great care of Milo. I’d book her again in a heartbeat!”


“The perfect dog sitters! We cannot thank Jeff and his wife enough. Our girls had as much fun on their vacation as we did. Walks every day, play time, and even some beach swims (with the cutest life jacket I’ve ever seen). We’re so grateful to have found you guys! Thank you!”


“I’m so happy to have found such an amazing sitter for my pup! 🐾 Raya had the best time – from playtime to cuddles – and I could tell she was treated like family. It's a relief to know that she is in such good hands when I'm away. Trustworthy, kind, and loving – highly recommend Shoshanna! 🐶💖”


“My dog really enjoyed his stay with Sung! I received photos and videos everyday and my dog seemed so happy. I could tell when I picked him up that he kind of didn't want to leave!”


“Lissa is a great Petsitter! She is a kind, person who genuinely cares about your pets well-being. My dog has stayed with her 3 times so far and has been shown nothing short of love and attention. He loves her and her family which gives me peace of mind knowing he is in good hands. I highly recommend Lissa to care for your pet.🩵🐩”


“James and Andrew watched our two dogs while we were out for a long weekend vacation. They were great with text updates with pictures and video. Very responsive to any questions. Dogs enjoyed themselves and had a great time. 10 out of 10 highly recommend. Our pups will be back.”


“Adrian was so attentive to my dog and she’s just a sweet, friendly and good human. That’s all I ask for these days haha, will be booking with her as long as she’s available 🥰”


“Armando you were so wonderful to our Gary! He was so happy and the pictures and videos you sent made us so grateful. Your communication was truly outstanding. Thank you so much for all your help! We highly recommend!!!!”


“Laura was an amazing sitter for our dog, Sassy! She took great care of her while my husband and I were on vacation, keeping us updated with plenty of pictures and sweet messages. It was clear that she genuinely enjoyed spending time with Sassy, often mentioning how affectionate and cuddly she was. When we picked Sassy up, she was happy, well cared for, and had obviously received lots of love and attention. Laura made sure to keep up with her meals and walks, and we truly appreciated the care she put into looking after her. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving dog sitter!”



“CiCi is the best! My dog suffers from serious separation anxiety and my dog had no issues being at her home. I can’t wait to take my dog back to CiCi. She is wonderful and takes such good care of the dogs. She sent cute photos and a video update too.”


“I couldn’t be happier with Larissa providing wonderful care for my sweet dog, Jewel. She was clearly well loved during her visit. I highly recommend Larissa for anyone looking for a caring, kind and reliable sitter ♥️”


About: Pets love me and I love them! I rescued my most recent Covid baby who was left on the streets in LA in 2021. My friends and family all have dogs and cats, so I am always around a fur baby or two. More than happy to watch yours as well! I am a full time pet care taker and happy to help take care of your pet. I’m flexible with times and accommodations. I normally walk my pup in the morning for 2 miles and less than a mile in the afternoon. I enjoy staying busy and active so adding your loved to my day would bring us both so much joy. During walks ensuring safety for all pups in the area is crucial for a successful walk. When in doubt I will cross the street or walk on the other side of parked cars to avoid any motives or altercations of pups towards my own.

“Jessica was amazing! Love getting pictures and videos of Dodger during my trip and was super communicative! Dodger will definitely be seeing her again in the future!”


“I would like to say Terri was absolutely amazing. This was my first time using Rover, and like most people would be skeptical about leaving my dog with a stranger I met online. I was traveling from out of town, and I couldn't meet Terri in advance. However, we had a call, and she could put my nerves at ease. She left me perfect instructions and was always fast to follow up with me. She really does provide top-notch service. I dropped off my little Corgi Thanos early in the morning, and she kept me regularly updated with photos of what he was doing. Thanos got fed, brought on a walk to a park, and got to play fetch! Also, an additional bonus is she took some amazing photos that really captured Thanos' personality! I would not hesitate to book Terri again. Thank you!!!”



“Darrell watched both our little fur grandma babies for a long weekend. We received pictures and videos of their walks while we were away! Upon pickup, our dogs were happy and exhausted so I know Darrell took great care of them. Definitely will use his services in the future!”

“We had an excellent experience with Vivian A. She was easy to like and very good to our dog Max. She sent pictures during the sitting and keep us up to date on Max. When you know your pet is well cared for it makes their absence less impactful. Thanks Vivian”


“Ivonne was very well organized and took really great care of of our fur baby. Very responsive and responsible. Highly recommend the caring dog sitter.”


“Sandra and family have watched our fur baby three times now. She does such a great job watching our dog, we can relax and enjoy our time away and know that our pup is in good hands. Sandra leaves updates of their activities during the stay which is so very nice. Book with Sandra today!!”
