“Samantha and Charles were amazing! They treated our dog Apollo with such love and attention, I truly felt at ease with him being in their care. They sent pics and videos with every visit, calming any anxiety we had of being away from our baby. Will definitely be trusting them again to look after him in the future!”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since I can remember, growing up surrounded by furry friends and learning their needs firsthand. Over the years, my relatives, neighbors, and friends have trusted me with their pets, whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or just extra love and attention while they’re away. I understand that every pet is unique, and I always make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for—just like family. Whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or sticking to their routine, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m a creative that works from home so I have plenty of time to take care of yours. I’m an early riser and is available as early as 7am and mostly available on throughout the week and weekends as well. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always ensure that pets are in a secure environment, whether indoors or outdoors, by checking fences, using leashes on walks, and keeping a close eye on them at all times. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, from feeding schedules to medication needs, to maintain consistency and comfort for the pet. In case of an emergency, I stay calm, assess the situation, and immediately contact the owner while seeking veterinary care if necessary. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience so both pets and their owners feel at ease.

“Such a wonderfully responsive human, who asked great questions about my dogs needs and was open to my route map suggestions. Left a thorough message updating me of their whole afternoon doggie date. Would use her again anytime!”


About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was a child—my father raised large dogs, and I grew up playing and bonding with them daily. That early experience gave me a deep understanding of canine behavior, especially with bigger breeds. During the pandemic, I adopted a cat who became my companion through a challenging time. Although I eventually had to find him a new home due to international travel, the experience taught me even more about pet care and emotional connection. Today, I share my life with an adorable cavapoo who brings so much joy to my daily routine. I truly enjoy spending time with both cats and dogs and understand the different kinds of care, energy, and attention they need. Whether it’s training a puppy, giving calm companionship to a senior pet, or simply going for a fun, structured walk—I bring patience, empathy, and attentiveness to every interaction. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own—with love, respect, and responsibility. I'm very flexible on weekends, Mondays and Tuesdays. I'm able to take your pets out for playing or walking. I have a cavepoo myself, he is super friendly with other dogs. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home, I always aim to create a calm, loving, and safe environment that feels familiar and stress-free. I take time to understand each pet’s unique routine—feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite toys, and any special instructions you provide. In my home, I offer a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of natural light, soft beds, and a relaxed atmosphere. I live in a walkable neighborhood that’s great for regular strolls, and I always make sure pets have enough exercise and playtime. My cavapoo is friendly and well-socialized, and I always do slow, supervised introductions to make sure everyone feels safe and gets along.

About: I’ve been working from home since the pandemic, and my dog has been by my side every day for the past 5 years. We have a routine that includes three walks a day, and during work, we always find time for play and bonding. I’ve also had experience with dog sitting, typically caring for one or two dogs at a time. My dog is a gentle soul, and there’s plenty of space in my apartment for both him and any guests. Plus, the dog park is just a two-minute walk away, and on weekends, we enjoy mini hikes together. I’m dedicated to giving your dog the attention, care, and fun they deserve! I’m available any day, but I prefer pickup and drop-off times to be between 9 AM and 9 PM. Please book at least 3 days in advance. If the guest dog is friendly with mine, I’ll let them play together. If they seem a bit awkward, I’ll let them get comfortable first, and then I can make a separate area with a fence to help them feel more at ease. Also, if they’re not comfortable walking together, I can take them on separate walks.

About: I’ve spent my life around pets, growing up with dogs and cats and spending over 6 years as a dog sitter. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities, including those who might be a little nervous or difficult. I have experience with senior pet care, providing a calm, supportive environment tailored to older dogs’ needs — including medication management, slow walks, and lots of gentle attention. With Pups I have plenty of playful energy for them! Pet care is an important part of my daily routine, and I always make sure to tailor it to the needs of each pet I look after. While my schedule varies, I prioritize my time to ensure the pets receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, or just cuddling, I make sure to keep a balanced routine that keeps them happy and healthy. I also adjust based on any specific requests from pet owners to ensure their pets feel comfortable and well-cared for. When pet sitting at a client's home, I prioritize safety by following all their rules and routines. I create a comfortable environment, ensuring pets are secure, well-fed, and happy. I also keep the space tidy and respect any specific instructions given by the pet owner. To keep them updated, I send plenty of photos, giving them peace of mind while they’re away.

“Aaron is fantastic! He's quick to respond and is truly wonderful with dogs and humans alike. My pup saw Aaron out one day and went crazy. Even the concierge desk where Aaron goes to pick up my apartment key said that he was the nicest guy.”

“Julia was great with our dog Gene this week when she needed a few walks. She took extra time to walk her and play with her outside and even gave some attention to our cats! I could tell from the pictures that our doggie just loved her. I definitely recommend Julia and hope to get to have her walk Gene again soon!”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in the past and have had a dog my whole life! I have also had a cat and birds and frogs before too. I’m a huge animal lover and am here to help in any way that I can! I am a full time dog-sitter and have an extremely flexible schedule. Your animals care is the absolute most important to me and I am experienced with all kinds of different breeds. I have over twenty years of pet parenting experience with a lot of different types of animals and take watching another persons pet extremely seriously.

About: I've been looking after dogs and cats since I was a teenager. I'm responsive, happy to provide photo updates, and love spending time outdoors with animals! Got on Rover because I spend a lot of time walking and running outside and would like some company! I am a current MD/MPH student, doing my medical degree at UCI and my public health degree at UCLA. I only have in-person school Monday and Wednesday, and otherwise have a flexible schedule. My lease does not allow pets, but am available to care for clients' pets in their homes or to take them out for walks or to dog parks. I am active, enjoy playing with animals, taking walks/runs, and going to the park. I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, and am happy to accommodate.

About: Hey, I’m originally from Indianapolis where I grew up with dogs and started learning how to care for them from a young age. I went to college there too, then moved to Seattle where I lived for nine years before coming to LA last May. It’s been almost a year now, and I’m finally getting settled in and looking for a fun little side hustle. Walking dogs felt like the obvious choice because it combines something I love with something I’m already good at. I’ve had dogs since I was seven, so I’ve got nearly 30 years of experience. Right now, I have a two-year-old husky named Jack. He’s smart, sensitive, and has some big feelings about downtown traffic, so I’ve learned how to help him stay calm and focused in busy environments. I’ve also cared for two other huskies in the past, Nova and Luna, so I’m very comfortable with larger breeds and high-energy personalities. I’m an active guy who can handle strong pullers, but I also know when a pup needs a slower, more thoughtful approach. I’m based in DTLA and would love to walk dogs in the area, but I’m happy to travel a bit if needed. I’m LGBTQ+ friendly and always respectful of different households and routines. I treat every dog like they’re family and do my best to give them a walk that’s safe, fun, and tailored to who they are. I work remotely Monday through Friday as a graphic designer, so my schedule is flexible during the weekdays. I’m also available on weekends for walks, or other pet care needs. Let me know what works best for you and your pup, and I’ll do my best to make it happen. When I’m caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect and care I’d want for my own. I’m clean, reliable, and always follow your pet’s routine closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medication, walk times, or the little things that help them feel safe and comfortable. I know how important it is to trust the person coming into your home and caring for your pet. I take that responsibility seriously. I’ll keep you updated with check-ins and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your pet is happy, your home is respected, and you feel completely confident they’re in good hands.

About: Hi, I’m Connor! I’m a marketing student at UCLA, and I’ve always been an animal lover. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and I’ve spent years dog-sitting and helping friends and family with their pets. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets, from high-energy puppies to senior dogs with special needs, so I’m comfortable with just about anything. I recently said goodbye to my sweet dog, Nemo, who crossed the rainbow bridge on 4/11/24 at 16 years old. He wasn’t just a pet—he was family—and losing him reminded me how much our pets mean to us. That’s why it’s so important to me to care for your pets with the same love, respect, and trust I gave Nemo. Whether your pet loves walks, playing in the park, or just hanging out at home for cuddles and treats, I’m here to make sure they feel happy and loved while you’re away. I also have a car, so I can transport your pet if needed—whether it’s for a vet visit, a trip to the park, or anything else. I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! I am currently back to school, which means I have a plethora of free time to care for your pets! I’m mainly available any time during the week as well as weekends currently. Trust with both the pet parent and the pet themselves is very important! Meeting prior to services is ideal to introduce myself to you and your pet to make them feel comfortable. Discussing rules, routines and expectations is also important to ensuring a good match!

15. Taylor S.
“Taylor is the kind of dog sitter that makes you wonder if your pup might prefer him over you. And honestly? Same. He’s got that magical combo of being a total sweetheart (like, the kind of person who remembers your dog’s weird quirks). Every update from Taylor was like receiving a love letter from summer camp. Pictures, little anecdotes ("today we sniffed so many hydrants"), and I swear my dog looked like he was living his best gay vacation fantasy. And yes, Taylor is gay and fabulous and brings that extra sparkle that only makes your pup’s life (and yours) better. I came home to a happy, calm dog and immediately thought, "Should I go stay with Taylor next time?" He’s that good. 10/10 would trust with my dog, my houseplants, and probably my deepest secrets.”


16. Connor F.
“Connor was absolutely fabulous when I broke my leg. He came twice a day to care for my pups and I have even used Connor as a dog sitter when I am away. The dogs love him, he takes excellent care of them and is always kind and courteous. He even goes above and beyond and helped me with a few other things while I was laid up. Would recommend 100%.”

20. Jaime R.
“Jaime intuitively understands and respects animals and is a wonderful pet sitter. I left my cat in their care for an 8-day vacation, and they took care of my precious baby (and apartment by proxy). Jaime asked follow-up questions for things i forgot to mention about kitty-care, and sent photos of my cat chilling on the couch with them, a testament to how safe and respected kitty felt in Jaime's presence! (My cat likes people, but is sensitive to touch and personal space). I returned to my space just as i left it, all tidiness was taken care of. I definitely recommend Jaime for a worry-free experience: your animal friends and personal space will be safe and well looked after in their care!”
