“Wanyao walked buddy last minute and followed all of the instructions, was super easy to communicate with and send me lots of cute pics. They had never met before but it seemed like my dog liked her immediately!”


“monica was a gem - thoroughly walked our dog, fed him and even went out of her way to clean up any messes while he was in her care. We would definitely book with her again and recommend her for others.”


“Absolutely thrilled with Jason's dog walking services! We entrusted him with our energetic bull terrier, Drako, and couldn't be happier with the results. Drako is a high-energy breed that thrives on long walks and runs, and Jason consistently delivers. Jason is incredibly dependable, always shows up and ready to go. He clearly has a genuine love for dogs. He's patient, calm, and goes above and beyond to make sure Drako gets the exercise and attention he needs. We especially appreciate that Jason keeps us informed about Drako's walks, providing updates and peace of mind. It's evident that Jason truly cares for our dog, and we recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog walker. If you want someone who will treat your furry friend like their own, Jason is the perfect choice!”


About: Currently focused on our feline friends as a pet sitter! If you are searching for someone with a special focus on kitties and keeping a calm environment for them, please feel free to reach out! As a previous doggy day care attendant with overnight boarding facilities, I'm used to working with larger groups of dogs, of all different sizes with various needs. My experience ranges from elderly dogs that may need more potty breaks than usual and younger pups that may need extra walking to get their energy out. Naturally, I love dogs and all of their unique personalities they come with, and as long as I know what their standard care and behavior is, I can easily adapt. Due to recent changes, I am only available for dog-walking services! Pet care is 24/7 - I watch all pets at all times to ensure consistent potty breaks, safety, and frequent walking, and usually wake early as most dogs need early potty time. I care for the pet depending on the pet parent's requirements and needs. Ex: some pet parents wish for their fur babies to stay inside in my care, while others request frequent walking. It is up to you! What you say goes.

About: I’ve been providing loving and reliable pet and house sitting services in Los Angeles for over 10 years. What started as helping out close friends and neighbors has grown into a true passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I only have a cat on my own but love dogs just as much! I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide range of dog breeds from Frenchies and Pomeranians to Labs and Pit mixes. No matter what their needs are, I make sure to take the best care of them! I have also had the pleasure to care for a range of cats, I love to see all of the different personalities that they have. I understand how important it is to feel at ease when leaving your pet in someone else’s hands. My goal is always to keep your pets happy, healthy, and comfortable, and treat them as if they were my own. I’m always happy to send regular photo updates, so you can stay connected and worry-free while you’re away. I live and work in Downtown Los Angeles, so this is also where i mainly provide my services. I work a full-time job but am flexible on hours away from home. It’s mostly remote, but i help out on site 5-6 hours about 3-4 days a week depending on what is going on each week. Since I live in the city we don’t have a yard but I am about a block from a park with a dog run as well as close to grand park. I love walking downtown. We also have a spare room in case the pet needs its own space. We’re loaded up on toys and treats for both cats and dogs.

“Patrick is wonderful! Very attentive, communicative and super kind with both me and my pup. Even when he showed up and was surprised to see that my dog was much bigger than he anticipated, he greeted him with warmth and love which was very sweet. 10/10 would recommend and will use his services again!”


About: Let me love your pet as much as you do! 🥰 I’ve been doing home visits since 2020 to both dogs and cats. You can trust me to feed your fur babies, give them snuggles, change puppy pads/litter boxes, or take them on walks. I also have a car if you need pet pick up or drop off for any reason. Let me know how I can service you! I work a 9-5 Monday through Friday, but I am happy to give your pet love from 5pm-9pm. I am open Sundays and Saturdays for any services you may need. I am located in DTLA but my building has a beautiful doggy play place that is more sanitary than the street and can let you pup run free (with your permission of course). I am happy to walk your pup in the street if that’s what you’d prefer. While in your home, I am happy to clean up any messes your pets have left from potty to notorious Cat spills. I am happy to take extra sanitary measures upon your request, please let me know what makes you feel comfortable.

“Absolutely amazing experience! Aleksandr took such great care of my dogs — they looked happy, I got some adorable photos during their walk. Super reliable, friendly, and clearly loves animals. I’ll definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!”


“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.”

“Remi loves his walks with Connor! He’s always responsive and willing to work with us last minute. He caters to remi’s specific needs and is a great doggy photographer :). Remi always comes home happy and exhausted. Highly recommend!”


About: As a loving dog mom, your dog will be in great hands with me! I am definitely one of those dog lovers who will analyze your dog's personality and more than likely talk in a different tone to them, because let's face it, if you don't talk to your dog in a special voice are you really a dog lover? I personally own a deaf basset hound and he is just as much of a love bug about other dogs as his mother is. My dog and I already love to go to the dog park together, take trips to the beach, or just play around on my rooftop of my apartment where dogs can roam off leash and have some fun up in the sky (don't worry it is completely fenced in:)) and my dog and I would love nothing more than to have another companion along the way. I have a plethora of treats and dog toys for your pooch so they will never go board! I live with my boyfriend so even if I am not around right away he is always there to help your dog as well. He is also a dog lover who loves to cuddle with the pooches! I'm currently available full time as your pet sitter, so I’m able to fully adapt to whatever routine your pet is used to. Whether that’s early morning walks, midday play breaks, or bedtime cuddles. Pet care is something that fits seamlessly into my day because it’s what I genuinely love to do. I already spend most of my time around animals, whether I’m going on walks, playing on my apartment’s fenced-in rooftop, or hanging out at the beach or dog park. Having your pet join me just makes it all the more fun! I'm big on keeping a consistent routine to make sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and loved while you're away. Whether I’m in your home or caring for your pet in mine, I always prioritize your pet’s comfort, routine, and happiness. I’m very adaptable. If your dog needs structured walks and feeding times, I’ll follow them exactly. If they just want a buddy to relax with, I’m happy to provide company and snuggles. In my home, your dog will get multiple walks, plenty of playtime, and can even join me on local park outings if you’re comfortable with that. I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe and loved wherever they are.

“Jonas did a really great job on walking Yohji! We booked 60-min walk everyday for two weeks, Jonas walked Yohji for more than one hour and left with walk notes and pictures everyday for us to review on Rover. Yohji loves him so much! Don’t hesitate to reach out to Jonas, he will be responsible and take very good care of your dog, and he is very easy to communicate. We’ll definitely ask Jonas to walk Yohji again when we’re out of town in the future : )”


“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!”

“Brady was awesome. We initially booked him outside of Rover, but did our last week on Rover just so we could leave him a review. He walked our dog for ~4 months, 2x/day. He was reliable and friendly. His walks were exactly as promised (30 minutes or more, always over a mile). His rates are good. We would 100% have him continue walking our dog if we weren't moving.”


“deandra has a great vibe and immediately made me feel relaxed immediately with her taking care of my pups. she followed my instructions to a tee and my pups seemed to really enjoy her!”

“Jamie will make sure your pets are well taken care of. She loves going on long walks, so bringing your dog along is even better! She is good with time management and doesn't back out of commitments. You can trust her word when she says that your furry friends are safe, happy, and fed. New environments are stressful for many cats--keep them home, and have Jamie take care of them while you enjoy your vacation to the fullest”

He can be a bit jumpy at times and doesn’t know what personal space is yet, and she handled him well.

Sophie was a massive help walking my springer spaniel while my usual dog sitter was away for two weeks. Having to find a new walker/sitter is always stressful for me, but Sophie made the process easy and worry-free! She was extremely responsive during the meet and greet/scheduling phase, and was very reliable and attentive while walking my dog. My dog was recovering from a slight health issue and Sophie noticed/reported any changes in her behavior each day. I won't hesitate to book Sophie as a sitter or walker in the future!

Maddy is the best!! She watched my pup for a week when I was out of town and honestly my dog didn’t wanna leave. She loved her stay with Maddy so much! She treated my dog so well with lots of walks and hikes and social outings to keep her happy :) and lots of photos and communication the whole time! 10/10 couldn’t recommend Maddy more!

Hannah was amazing with our dog Penelope! From the moment they met, it was clear Penelope felt totally comfortable and happy with her. Hannah was kind, professional, and super communicative—she gave us updates and photos that totally put our minds at ease. We could tell she genuinely cared, and it made all the difference. We can’t wait to hire her again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog walker! 🐾💛
