“Brendon was awesome! He was able to take my pup on a last-minute walk, covered a lot of ground, and gave me a nice, detailed and entertaining report once he was done. Will definitely use him again!”

“Ryan has walked my senior dog, Lily, several times now. She is very patient with her as she wants to smell all the things and he’s able to handle her around other dogs even though she’s dog aggressive. I will continue using Ryan whenever I need help and I encourage you to use him as well.”

About: 🌲🌼🐕🐩🐕🦺🦮🌻🌸🪻 I grew up with cats and have always loved animals, but dogs have my heart these days - I have a 4-year-old dog of my own. Due to a recent life change, I only have him with me a couple of weeks a month, and I miss having a dog around way more than I expected. That’s what brought me to Rover - I want to fill that gap by giving another pup the love and attention I’d normally be giving mine. 🦴🏡 I have hands-on experience with puppies as well as small to mid-size dogs. I live in a multi-family home in Silver Lake with a fenced yard, in a walkable neighborhood that’s great for daily walks and sniff breaks. I also have the flexibility to work from home, so when I have a dog in my care, I’ll be around at home. 🙋♀️ I work in animation. I’m flexible most days of the week. 🪴 I love gardening, running and spending time with my furry friends. 👩💻💻 Since I have the option to work from home, I’m able to be with your dog most of the time. Sometimes I’ll need to step out for gyms or appointments. ⏰🕦 Pick up and drop off time; between 9:00am- 9:00pm. 🐾 Prefer non-aggressive dog that get along with other dogs. I take 2-3 dogs maximum. Please inform me in advance if your pup doesn’t get along with other pups or need special cares and I can check my schedule about hosting one dog. 💪 Up-to-date vaccinations done with good health conditions. 🏠 🚶♀️ I live in a multi-family home with a fenced yard in a walkable Silver Lake neighborhood — great for daily walks and outdoor time. Before any dog comes to stay, I make sure to dog-proof the space, putting away anything they might be able to reach or get into, so it’s a safe environment from the moment they arrive.

About: I’m an experienced animal lover who treats every dog like family. I’ve personally lived with Schnauzers, Labradors, Chihuahuas, and Retrievers, and I’ve cared for Yorkies, Dachshunds, Huskies, and Shih Tzus. I’m comfortable with different energy levels and temperaments, I follow your routines exactly, and I keep you in the loop with photo updates. Clean, responsible, and patient. Your dog’s comfort and safety come first. With this experience in mind, I am able to run, walk, carry, jump, skip or swim with dogs. I come from an active household that puts an emphasis on treating dogs like companions that should be appreciated and kept healthy. I live on the edge of Midtown East and UES, meaning I will be able to take a quick train down town or run to the surrounding areas in a quick second. I have experience with anxious, and high energy dogs and am prepared to cater to your dogs specific needs. I am a writer and arts professional with a flexible schedule, so pet care fits naturally into my day. I plan my projects around walk blocks and drop-ins, with availability most mornings, middays, and evenings. I keep buffer time between bookings and send prompt photo updates. Your dog’s comfort and safety come first. I provide care in your home with one household walks, follow your routines, and start with a quick meet and greet. During visits I clip the leash before doors open, choose calm on leash routes, refresh water, measure meals, wipe paws, tidy up, and double check lights and locks. You receive photo and GPS updates, and I can give oral or topical meds with instructions. I do not host dogs in my home.
“Rebekah is awesome! She came to meet our dogs the day before and was very accommodating. She was communicative throughout her visits with our dogs and was obviously very thoughtful about their wellbeing. I would definitely book again :)”

“KC is such good vibes. Lupe loved him from the start. They walked a long distance in a short time and she came straight to nap after their walk, an epic success. Will definitely hit him up again! Thanks a ton KC!”

About: Hey! I grew up with dogs in my household, so I’ve had a lot of training and experience with taking care of them. I regularly go for a walk, run or hike with the dogs I watch around Echo Park lake or Elysian park, which is in close proximity to my apartment if they are up for it! I have a decent size apartment for them to explore, but am very careful not to leave items out that could cause any harm. I love cuddling up with pups and look forward to meeting you both! I generally work from home as a freelance creative, and am around most weekends, giving me ample time to play with and walk your pup. I have a decent sized apartment and little patio space where dogs can co-habitat and roam freely. I can crate if necessary as well. I clean regularly and am careful not to leave out items or food that may be chewed on or swallowed.
“Great, reliable, responsible, very friendly, she has been available on short notice for me twice. She even was patient and waited for me an extra 10 minutes when I was late to pick up queen from her. I absolutely recommend her, Queen comes back so happy from her walk, You'll love her, such a sweet, kind soul, your furry baby will thank you!”

“Lee has been fabulous with Willie! I was nervous to leave Willie home for the first time while I went to work as I am gone for a very long day. Lee sent me an update on how the walk went and when I come home Willie is calm and happy and there are no accidents in the house. Lee has been very professional and takes good care of Willie on his walks and we look forward to having him numerous days a week on a regular basis. Thank you Lee! :)”

“Nick was patient, flexible, and connected with my dog instantaneously! I appreciated how thorough he was with taking photos during the visit. Grateful to have him looking out for my girl.”

About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life. I grew up with a beagle and a golden retriever and I absolutely adore dogs. I have also been dog sitting and walking since I was 10 years old. I'm simply a huge animal lover and I crave being outside all seasons of the year. I'm a runner and I love taking long walks especially with a furry companion. I'm very attentive, personable, and energetic and an overall dog person. I work a part time job so I am able to care for dogs as much as I want! My schedule is very flexible as well. I’m a very responsible and considerate person when it comes to being in someone else’s home. I will communicate with the owner as much as possible to assure them that everything is running smoothly.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for around 7 years now. I have two dogs that are a part of my family and they have helped me grow as a person and to be more caring. I usually take out my own dogs twice a day and play with them and try to enrich them so they are entertained and cared for. I like to first have the pet’s get comfortable with me and then understand their individual personalities. Knowing when they go on walks or how they like to play factor into how a dog should be cared for!
About: My entire life, I've loved dogs and either had a dog, lived with a dog, or cared for the dogs of other people in my life. - Growing up, we had (2) Labradors (and 4 cats). I also drove my family nuts asking to pet literally *every* dog we passed on the street. - In college, I helped care for my friend/housemates' 2 cats. - Throughout my 20s, I was co-parent to my friend/housemate's dog, a sweet pitbull mix, and my then-boyfriend's dog, another sweet pittie who was also very very elderly and needed special care. - Now, I have my own dog: Murphy, a 5.5 year old Golden Retriever, female who I raised from 8.5 weeks old. She universally gets along with other dogs -- she has a remarkable instinct for calibrating her energy to other dogs: she's super gentle with elderly dogs, shy-but-friendly dogs, & puppies; she'll roughhouse with those who want to; and if they're disinterested, so is she. - For a decade+ i've been the go-to friend to dogsit for anyone, anytime - because 1. I love dogs, 2. they love me, 3. I'm experienced & understand the care involved, and 4. I have a great house/setup for dogs: a lovely big yard, enclosed with high fences, where I spend most of my time so I can supervise (even with high fences, dogs will always be supervised in the yard, to be extra safe). I freelance (work from home) part-time. I have a very open/flexible schedule, and can generally pet-sit during weekdays at my home, overnights, and weekends. Because i'm only part-time, I take my dog on multiple walks per day and 1 park outing (silverlake reservoir or laurel & hardy park). Generally I'd need to sit at my own home - but if you are local to Silverlake or surrounding areas, I can drop by for mid-day walks etc. I have a great yard, big & enclosed with HIGH fences. I have my own 5.5-year-old golden retriever, Murphy, to keep your pup company. She's the sweetest. I live in a great neighborhood in silverlake for going on nice long walks, including to nearby Laurel & Hardy Park and Silverlake reservoir/Silverlake Meadows. I have plenty of indoor space for a crate, if needed/desired - and 2 bedrooms so they can be crated in the quiet 2nd room if needed. I have a go-to vet (Rivers Veterinary) just down the street that I take my own dog to.
“Otilia was so amazing! Gigi took to her so quickly. She was so communicative and wanted to make sure gigi was comfortable and she knew all the details to make it a great experience for gigi. I can not recommend her enough! Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!”

About: I’ve take men care of dogs and cats since 2019. Plenty of experience! Please consider me for all your pet care needs and that your fur babies will be in safe hands! At this time I am very flexible. I can walk up to 4 times a day amd complete drop-ins as needed. Also feedings. Please leave all preference information I would provide all supervision. I know pets should be leashed at all times in public places and if in yard they can roam freely.
About: I have been a dog owner for 8 years, a nanny who also cares for the family dogs for 2 years and a cat sitter for friends for 3 years. I am comfortable with all breeds and sizes and love to lavish affection and attention on each and every pet I meet. I have raised kittens and puppies and have crate trained, potty trained and obedience trained as well. I work close to home so I am able to provide consistent care for my own dog and bring her with me wherever I go around Los Angeles. I like to offer long walks, visits to the park or lake, lots of play time with toys and cuddles. I understand that animals have not only physical but emotional needs. I have a spacious loft with high ceilings and windows that run the length of the apartment. Your pet can roam and even run indoors with space to spare. I also have a crate that can fit a dog up to 45 lbs, elevator and stair access and my building is secure and sound proof. When caring for pets in their own home, I let them tell me how much space they want and let them come to me. I want to be as unobtrusive as possible and respect the wants and needs of each pet I meet!

About: Hi! 🐾 I’ve always been a huge animal lover, but I also think loving animals is just the starting point for being a great pet sitter. What matters most to me is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Here’s a little more about me and what I can offer: 🐶 10+ years of pet-sitting experience with dogs, cats, and bunnies! 🐶 Small-to-medium dogs are my sweet spot. I’m most comfortable caring for and walking dogs under 50 lbs, but I also have experience with dogs in the 50–70 lb range. 🐶 Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, routine, quirks, likes, dislikes, and any special instructions so they can feel as comfortable as possible. 🐶 Lots of experience with all kinds of personalities! I’ve cared for Yorkies, Beagles, rat/terrier mixes, Chihuahua mixes, cats, and bunnies, among others. At the end of the day, I want your pet to feel like they’re spending time with a trusted friend — and I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾💕 📆 My availability * Monday & Friday: I work from home, so I’m available for walks and daycare throughout the day. * Tuesday–Thursday: Evening dog walks starting around 6 PM. * Weekends: I’m happy to watch your pets and give them plenty of love and attention! 🐶 Pet-friendly and convenient: My apartment is pet-friendly and super convenient for pups, with elevator access and the LA River right nearby for easy, enjoyable walks. 🐶 Lots of exercise and adventure: I’m happy to get your dog out and about! Whether that means a neighborhood walk, a trip to the dog park, a hike, or even just going out for dinner, I love giving dogs plenty of opportunities to exercise and explore. I also have a doggie car seat for small dogs and a larger backseat setup with seatbelts for bigger pups. 🐶 Cuddles, playtime, and respecting boundaries: I’m a big fan of cuddles, kisses, treats, toys, and playtime, but I’ll always respect your pet’s individual personality and boundaries. If your dog or cat isn’t a cuddler, that’s totally okay! My goal is for every pet to feel safe, comfortable, and free to be themselves. 🐶 Your rules, their routine: I’m happy to spoil your pets, but I’ll always follow your instructions. Whether you have a specific feeding schedule, treat restrictions, house rules, or other preferences, I’ll make sure everything is followed carefully. 🐶 A comfortable space: My unit is approximately 1,000 sq. ft. and is always kept at a comfortable temperature for your pet. I have hardwood flooring, and they are free to explore any part of the home. 🐶 Respect for your home: If you prefer that I care for your pet in your home, I’ll always be respectful of your space and follow your house rules. 🐶 Clear communication: If there’s ever a period of time when I need to leave your pet alone for a short while, I’ll always let you know in advance. 🐶 Emergency preparedness: I’ll always ask for your emergency contact and veterinarian information so I know exactly who to contact if anything unexpected comes up.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Echo Park
When we got home to our dog, he was noticeably happy, content, and worn out! Yasmin was able to earn Eddie's trust super fast and walk him all around town. Yasmin took great care with our dog and her attention to detail was awesome! She has great intuition about animals. We will definitely hire her again.

Mahshid is the BEST Rover we’ve had so far! We’ve used her for walks and daycare, and both are great experiences. She is so communicative and responsive, and the best part is that she always sends a lot of cute photos and videos. It’s clear that she cares so much for dogs. Kona always seems to have a great time, especially at daycare where she got to explore her nice apartment, play with toys and experience more greenery. We trust her and highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

10/10 recommended ! So sweet and communicative went above and beyond when my plans changed last minute and needed extra help. Sent great photos, updates, and my dog absolutely loved her. Felt so comfortable having her in my home alone will definitely request her again for help in the future !

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Echo Park. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
