“Jessica was the kitty whisperer to our old ornery black cat! She’s wonderfully dependable and gave very helpful updates with every visit. We would recommend her for anyone!”

About: I’ve taken care of my cats since they were a little Kitten and a dog too when I was a pre teen. Still capable now after having no dog. I’m currently working part time , seems like full time. But I’ll have time before or after work depending on schedule and days of course I have a big place , I have a big front yard with concrete and some grass, I can do walks at parks near by
“Made me feel very comfortable as this is my first time using Rover. She followed instructions and my pup seemed very happy. I would definitely recommend and would use again in the future.”

About: I've lovingly cared for dogs for over 15 years and treat every pet like family. I’m patient, gentle, attentive, and focused on making dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I work mostly remote, so I’m home often and able to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I only go into the office occasionally and when I step out, I’m usually gone for less than an hour. I enjoy creating calm, loving routines where pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, comfort level, routines, and boundaries. I’m gentle, patient, and communicative, and I treat every pet in my care like they’re part of my family.
About: I’ve always lived with cats, my old roommate had a golden retriever and I would watch him all of the time. I’ve also dog sat for different friends over the years and love all furry friends. I’m currently working part time but completely open Friday through Sunday. I have plenty of time after work to check on fur babies as well. Since I have my own cat, I won’t be watching any animals in my own apartment but would always be very respectful coming into your home.
“3rd booking and as with the past Megan is absolutely fantastic! As long as she’s willing to provide this service, we couldn’t imagine anyone else taking care of our fur babies! Thanks so much Megan; you’re awesome!!!🤗🤗”

About: Animals have been a part of my life since the day I was born, and I can’t imagine life without them! Over the years I have personally owned 3 rescue pit bull type dogs and 2 cats. I foster dogs, puppies, and kittens through Pasadena Humane, where I’ve gained hands on experience with pups of all ages, sizes, medical conditions, and personalities. I’m Fear Free trained, which means I focus on keeping pets calm, comfortable, and happy during care. I have experience working with reactive dogs, understanding their needs and body language, as well as providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. Whether it’s playtime, training reinforcement, or just a cozy walk at their pace, I’ll treat your pup like family while keeping their safety and happiness my top priority. I currently have my own leather working business, so I am able to work my schedule around your animals needs. Whether it’s a midday walk or overnight care. I follow any and all instructions provided for caring for your pets. Any questions or concerns, I may have, I won’t hesitate to ask you. I know how precious updates are, so I will provide you with a quick updates and photos daily of how your fur babies are doing. I will also clean up after myself and any messes your fur babies might make. I am a strong believer that you should always leave a space as clean or cleaner than when you found it.
“I can’t say enough good things about Sabrina! She truly went above and beyond for my pups and made me feel like I could relax on my vacation knowing they were in such good hands. I highly recommend her!”
“Gissell is a true gem! She is hard working, reliable, flexible, and a good communicator. Gissell has been caring for my 3 large-sized dogs for a while through easy times and hard times (e.g., when my senior dog was seriously ill, when I foolishly fostered 8 puppies). I couldn’t have asked for a more trustworthy, compassionate person to look after my family. Hire Gissell, and you won’t regret it!”

About: Lots of experience walking/sitting dogs and taking care of cats. Love pets of all sizes, and have experience taking care of multiple at a time. Living in Pasadena and servicing Greater LA County area. Mostly open schedule. Usually available on weekends and holidays except Christmas and Thanksgiving. Can do day visits or overnights. I can't take care of pets in my own home, but I have experience taking care of them in different housing arrangements (house/apartment/etc) and security, and will thoroughly closely follow whatever guidelines the owner sets.

“It’s my first time looking for a cat sitter. I was worried if my cat could be comforted or not. It turned out well and she sent me a lot of photos so I’m certain my cat is doing well. I’m very happy with the result.”

“Lani went above and beyond for our drop in visits! The LA fires broke out while we were away, and the power went out. Lani took initiative to store our cat’s refrigerated food at her house so it wouldn’t spoil. She took excellent care of our elderly cat, administering her meds twice a day and taking care to clean up and give her cuddles. It was so comforting to know she was looking out for our cat during the craziness of the fires. Our cat was calm and happy when we returned. Will definitely book with Lani again! 😻”

Sabrina took great care of my two dogs, and was very responsible and responsive. She sent me regular photo and written updates, and had strong and reliable communication. I had peace of mind knowing she was taking care of my dogs while I was traveling, and highly recommend her!

Wanyao was absolutely wonderful with our puppy, Jasper! She is incredibly easy to communicate with and followed all of our care instructions perfectly. We loved getting constant photo updates of Jasper throughout the day. It gave us so much peace of mind seeing how happy he was. We highly recommend Wanyao and will definitely book with her again!

Samantha gave great care to my two girls while I was away for an extended trip. This is the longest that I’ve left them and I was very reassured that they were well taken care of. Great communication and she was able to figure out how to interact with my spicy Cardi, which has been a challenge in the past with other sitters. I am very grateful for her and look forward to future bookings.

Tanna took excellent care of my babies, and I would 100% book them again! They were prompt/punctual, responsive, and communicative, and just overall very easy to work with. My kitties loved them and I returned from my trip with two happy kitties, with a clean litter box and (almost) full food and water dishes. I recommend Tanna highly to anyone looking for a reliable pet-sitter, especially for cats!

So happy we could rely on Jessica to take care of our two kitties while we were traveling. She sent us lots of adorable photos and gave them the pets and love they needed. She went above and beyond and brought in packages and was always great at communicating with us.

Querube is absolutely amazing and incredibly trustworthy. She takes such great care of my little Polo (my Pomeranian), and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in good hands. She’s very communicative, keeps me updated, and is always flexible when we need her services. I truly couldn’t ask for a better sitter, highly recommend her!

Enqi sitted my cat Jiro for the same day request and last minute emergency. He was very patient and communicative throughout the sitting. I saw my cat feeling calm and himself after I got him back. I appreciated his help and would book him again! Highly recommended.

Cisem was great with our overly needy and particular cats while we were abroad. She was also very helpful during her time housesitting/cat sitting, helping us with our mail, packages, and even watering the plants! Cisem was very responsive and we had no issues in communicating throughout the period we were away.

Maya is great with our dogs and always makes sure to meet the specific needs of each of them. She’s also super flexible and accommodating with changing schedules. She’s good with our big foster dog (>120lbs) and with our little 10lb dog. Also, she sometimes will leave cute drawings of our dogs after her drop-ins! Highly recommend her!

Anasol was great! My boys can be a little shy and nervous when meeting new people, but she was so patient and understanding. She gave them space, let them approach her at their own pace, and followed all my directions perfectly. She arrived on time and was consistent every day. I really appreciated her care and reliability!
