About: English/ 中文 /粤语 My wife and I both grew up with dogs and have 20+ years of experience between us keeping them happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We have a friendly 3 year old of our own at home and would love to find her a playmate. Your dog won’t be spending the day alone. We live in a downtown high rise, so your pup gets a clean, climate controlled space, elevator access for quick potty breaks, and multiple walks a day around the neighborhood. We’re very comfortable with high energy breeds, feeding and medication schedules, crate routines, and whatever your dog is already used to. Send us their normal routine and we’ll stick to it. We’ll also send photo and video updates so you know exactly how they’re doing. Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily and weekly routine. I work fully remote, which allows me to be home for the majority of the day and readily available to provide consistent supervision, companionship, walks, feeding, and playtime. While I occasionally need to step out to visit local customers, these outings are typically short and planned, ensuring your pet is never left alone for extended periods. My wife is a PhD student in medical school and works in a hybrid setting, so between the two of us, there is almost always someone home. She also has extensive professional experience with animal care, including administering medications and injections, monitoring health and behavior, and responding calmly to any medical or behavioral needs that may arise. Together, we are able to accommodate a wide range of pet needs, including structured routines, special diets, medication schedules, senior pet care, and extra attention for pets that require it. We prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal schedule as closely as possible and providing a safe, calm, and attentive environment where they feel comfortable and well cared for. We care for pets in our home by providing a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment that allows them to feel relaxed and well-loved. We live in a spacious 2b2b high-rise apartment, which gives pets plenty of room to move around, rest, and have their own quiet space when needed. Our apartment complex includes two well-maintained dog parks, which allow us to provide regular outdoor exercise, playtime, and bathroom breaks. We tailor activity levels to each pet’s needs, whether that means additional walks, off-leash play, or calmer enrichment activities. Inside the home, we follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible. Pets receive plenty of attention and affection. For pets that need extra care, including seniors or those with medical needs, we are experienced in monitoring behavior, administering medications, and ensuring their comfort at all times.

About: - I bring lifelong devotion to dogs and hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, ages, and personalities. - Originally from London, UK, I worked as a pet carer at Crufts Dog Show, caring for dogs while their owners took breaks. My experience also includes pet sitting in my home and puppy training classes. - My love of dogs began at five with my beautiful chocolate Lab, who grew up alongside me for 17 wonderful years. My English Cocker Spaniel turns 10 this year, and having to leave her in the UK has meant missing her—and everyday dog companionship—terribly. - Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I love making their days comfortable, happy, and full of affection. - I also cared for a friend’s 14-year-old Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix on and off for two years, giving me hands-on experience with larger dogs and the patience and understanding they need when feeling a little grumpy. - As I’m not currently working, my schedule is fully flexible, so I can fit around your dog’s usual routine and give them plenty of time, attention, and companionship. - I have so much love and attention to give and would be delighted to share it with your dog. Every breed and age is welcome, and I’ll care for yours like family. I’ve recently moved from the UK and am not currently working, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your dog attention, companionship, and care. I can work around their usual routine, including walks, feeding times, playtime, and company during the day. I live in a pet-friendly apartment with no pets of my own, so your dog will have my full attention. We have a dedicated dog shower, and I’m happy to give them a bath if needed, with your permission. They’ll enjoy regular walks around the neighborhood, with exercise tailored to their age, energy, and comfort. I’ll follow your dog’s usual routine and care instructions to help them feel settled, keep them on a lead during walks, and send you regular updates and photos so you can feel reassured while you’re away.
About: I've happily cared for other people's dogs and cats throughout my life. It is something I always look forward to and approach with a great sense of responsibility. I'm self-employed, so I have the flexibility to work with your schedule and also come through for you in a pinch. Looking forward to becoming someone you can rely on! I'm always happy to do a no-cost/no-strings meet and greet so please don't hesitate to ask. Also, I'm a big believer in the value of communication. Please expect updates through Rover's app during walks and drop-ins so you can rest easy that your family is in good hands!

“Chelsea was the absolute best!! Scar loved her, she was so amazing. Very last second booking and she did everything perfectly. Even sent me awesome updates / photos of my dog while i was away which was very kind of her! Came back to a very happy pup, would 10/10 recommend and rehire! 🙌🏼”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for years, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them and getting to know their individual personalities. I have 10 years of personal experience caring for dogs, including feeding, walking, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing lots of attention and companionship. From 2020–2023, I also regularly cared for my aunt’s service dog whenever she traveled out of town. That experience taught me how important it is to follow an owner’s instructions carefully and respect an animal’s established routine, especially when caring for a working dog. I also have experience with cats! I owned a cat for a year and spent about 10 months helping care for my roommate’s cat, so I’m comfortable with feeding, refreshing water, litter box care, playtime, and giving cats attention while also respecting when they want their own space. I know leaving your pet with someone else requires a lot of trust. My goal is to make sure every pet in my care feels safe, comfortable, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible while their person is away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and I’m comfortable planning my day around their needs. As a college student, I have flexibility throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and pet sitting. I’m also available on weekends and can coordinate care around each pet’s established schedule. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so if your dog expects breakfast at 7 AM or your cat has decided dinner being five minutes late is a personal betrayal, I’ll do my best to keep their normal routine consistent! 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their home, belongings, and pets with the same respect and care I would want someone to show mine. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications if applicable and clearly instructed, playtime, litter boxes, routines, and household rules. I make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure and pay close attention during walks and whenever entering or leaving the home. I never introduce new foods, treats, animals, or activities without the owner’s permission. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so pet parents can relax knowing their pet is safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention. 🐕🐈💕
“Abel was very good with communication and my dogs felt very safe with her. I was in a pinch and she stepped on and watched my babies while o was away and she took great care of them. I would for sure book again.”

About: I come from a big dog family, grow up with a dog since I was 12 years old. I’m from Altadena where I often go to visit my mom and help take care of her 4 dogs. Out of this experience I’m looking to spend some fun times with dogs, since I feel like I’m already the owner of some but I don’t get to see them everyday. I work from home with flexible hours, wake up early, and love being active so I have plenty of time and energy to play with your pup I’m 160 lbs., 5’8 not the biggest guy but regularly lift weights so can handle bigger dogs. As your fellow downtown neighbor, I will be mindful of the environment when walking your dog, and treat your home with the utmost respect.

About: I have over 10 years of hands on experience caring for animals including dogs, cats, and farm animals. I’ve cared for my own pets as well as pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, and I’m comfortable with animals of different sizes, personalities, and temperament. I also have firsthand experience caring for young puppies after my own dog had a litter, which taught me how much attention, patience, and care younger animals can require. What sets me apart is that I’m patient, attentive, and take the responsibility of caring for someone else’s pet seriously. I pay close attention to each animals behavior and wellbeing, follow the owners care instructions, and make sure their pet feels safe and comfortable. I’m also happy to provide regular updates so owners can have peace of mind while their pet is in my care. I’m currently a part-time student, so my schedule varies throughout the week, but I have plenty of flexibility to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I’m available for house sitting Friday–Sunday and for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday–Thursday. My hours may vary depending on the day, but I’ll always make sure I can accommodate your pet’s needs and routine before accepting a booking. For house sitting, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any care instructions you provide to help them stay comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, playtime and attention, and a clean and safe environment. I’ll also respect your home and make sure doors, gates, and other areas are properly secured. For dog walks, I’ll keep your dog safely leashed and pay close attention to our surroundings throughout the walk. I’ll follow any instructions you provide regarding their usual route, behavior around other dogs or people, and anything else I should be aware of to keep them safe and comfortable. For drop-in visits, I’ll check on your pet and take care of their needs according to your instructions, including feeding, refreshing their water, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and playtime. I’ll also keep you updated on how your pet is doing so you can have peace of mind while they’re in my care.
“WOW! Saige has been such a good sitter for my cat while I was gone for 3 days. She was so sweet and kind. My cat warmed up to her really well. She also took so many pictures to update me, came on time, and followed any instructions I had specific for my cat. HIGHLY RECOMMEND”

“Minay has been absolutely amazing to both our cats, Miso and Kiki, taking care of them while we were gone for the holidays. This is our first time using her service and it definitely won’t be the last!”

“Daniele took great care of my girls while I was away on a trip! She was so thorough and made sure she completed each step while noting all her steps with photos. It’s given me great peace of mind while I was away. She has a sweet energy and I look forward to booking her again in the future :)”


About: Safety first so I double checked my apartment for any hazardous items, edges, or liquids that could possibly endanger any pet! I also love taking lots of pictures with the dogs in my care. Staying active is a priority of mine so it makes it a lot more fun when I can have an active or playful pet around! I ride a skate board so it's easy for me to get around town quickly for in home visits to your pets. Spacious room is ideal for pets with their own beds or toys. I live alone so you can sure all my attention will be focused on the safety and care of your furry friends! Your pet will have my full attention as I don’t work right now I only focus on caring for pets. I also foster dogs here and there. I have plenty experience with all types of dogs and I can easily pick up on whatever your pets needs are.I always will make sure to keep you informed on our daily activities. I currently only go to school online so I will dedicate all of my time to being with the dogs in my care which makes it easier for me to keep track of any special needs your pet may need like medication or strict bathroom breaks things like that. I aim to keep the way that I care for and treat the dogs the same way that they would be treated at home so that they dont develop any inappropriate habits while they are away from home so if they aren't allowed on furniture at home ill be sure to keep them off furniture at my home so that they can stay well trained.
“Julia is so sweet with my dog! Super reliable, communicative, and kind. My pup Sophie is difficult but Julia has won her trust and so I'm glad to have her back in my home hanging with my pup.”

Eric was wonderful! He was communicative and flexible, while being responsible and maintaining all of his commitments. I had to end my trip and return home early due to an illness, and Eric was very understanding. He left my home in the condition that I had requested and my cat seems happy and healthy.

Chelsea was the absolute best!! Scar loved her, she was so amazing. Very last second booking and she did everything perfectly. Even sent me awesome updates / photos of my dog while i was away which was very kind of her! Came back to a very happy pup, would 10/10 recommend and rehire! 🙌🏼

Thank you Sarah for taking care of my baby, being respectful to my home, and giving me plenty of updates. I appreciate you so much as I had lots of anxiety being away from my girl for the first time (usually I have family watch her on trips). Hope you can watch her the next time I need help. Thanks again and take care!

Anastasiya was extremely prompt (and flexible with time changes) and asked many pertinent questions. She engaged very lovingly with my little guy and he will be happy to see her again. Also, she was very helpful guiding me thru the Rover app as I have not scheduled a drop-in visit.

Imogen is the best carer ever for our cat, Mina! She was so professional, helpful, and communicative while we were away on vacation and she was dropping in to care for Mina, who was on medication. Any nerves I had about leaving our girl while she was on temporary meds were completely put at ease by Imogen’s excellent care. We felt so reassured knowing Mina was in such good hands and happy to see her each day!

Malia did such a great job taking care of our puppy when we were traveling. She dropped to him on the requested times, played with him and took care of him. She was super communicative and send me videos and photos from each drop. Highly recommend her if you are looking for a reliable person!
