“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!”

About: I have 11 years of experience caring for my dog and truly enjoy spending time with dogs. I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, sizes, and needs, and I always strive to provide a safe, loving, and fun environment. Your dog’s comfort, happiness, and well-being are my top priorities! I am mainly available on weekends for drop-in visits and dog walks. On certain days during the week I am also available for drop-ins and walks. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I make sure to follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I provide plenty of love, attention, and companionship while keeping them safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also keep their space clean, follow the owner’s instructions carefully, and send regular updates/photos so owners can feel confident their pets are happy and well cared for.
“i would highly recommend lily for your dog walking services! my dog can get pretty anxious and protective with strangers in my home and lily is very patient and understanding, so my dog already feels more comfortable with lily entering my house and walking her around the neighborhood. she’s very communicative, responsive, and friendly! i’ll definitely continue to hire her to walk my house gremlin :))”


“Jessica is so great with our senior dog. She’s sweet and gentle with our old girl and really cares about her. She’s always super communicative and friendly. I know I can count on her to take good care of our four-legged friend.”


About: I love animals and I always want what's best for them. I enjoy walking and caring for pets of all shapes & sizes and I have personal experience with dogs, cats, birds (including chickens) & other animals, in addition to being a professional dog walker. I'd love to meet your pets! I enjoy the company of all animals, but would ask that your dog be friendly and non-agressive towards other dogs or cats. Vaccinations and flea medications are highly recommended. All pets should be spayed or neutered. Help control the unwanted pet population! I am flexible on service availability. Please send me a message if you have specific questions or concerns. I'm happy to help your pets feel safe and loved! I am very conscientious about an animal's well being, needs and desires. I understand them well and can anticipate what they will want to do next in any environment.
“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.”

“I’ve booked several walks with Midori so far and they are great. It’s so nice knowing my dog is well taken care of. They also go the extra mile to bring in packages and refill water and give belly rubs. Highly recommend!”

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 worked at a dog daycare in LA for two years. I grew up around dogs and currently have two beautiful small dogs. I have fostered many dogs in the past and wound up adopting one of them. I currently work from home and have very flexible hours and schedule. I like to take my dogs out for walks and bathroom breaks every three hours. A long walk in the morning and night and shorter ones throughout the day. Having two dogs, we have a very pet friendly environment in our apartment. Furniture they can crawl and jump on. Multiple dog beds, tons of toys and treats. Extra dog bowls, leashes, poop bags. Everything to make your pet comfortable and their stay stress free and hopefully fun for them.
“Joseph is amazing! He took great care of our two young energetic dogs. He was so attentive to both of their individual needs and I couldn’t have asked for better communication. Thank you Joseph!”

About: I grew up surrounded by animals, with three dogs at home and horses I helped care for throughout my childhood. I’ve spent time in both the vet world and the horse/dog show world, which taught me to notice the little things and give animals the focused care they deserve. Whether your pup needs playtime, patience, or extra cuddles, I’m here to give them a safe, loving, and cozy stay. I work in digital marketing from home, which gives me the flexibility to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m home most of the time while pet sitting, keeping a close eye to make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I live in a house with a securely fenced front yard and back yard, and everything is set up to keep your pet happy, safe, and comfortable. Dogs can roam freely at my home, and I always supervise them. I’m with them whenever they’re outside, and I also take dogs on walks, not just backyard time, so your pup gets lots of fresh air and exercise. I try not to leave pets home alone and plan my days around their stays. Pets are always welcome on the couch and bed. I set up a corner for each pet with their own bed, water bowl, and toys so they feel safe and at home. I have a big collection of pet toys, enough to keep them entertained all day (they might even be overwhelmed by the options!). I separate pets during feeding time to keep mealtimes calm and stress-free. On the occasion that I do step out, I have a pet camera set up so I can check in on your pet, and I can even talk to them through it to help soothe them if needed. Dog TV is always on if pets are at home alone. I keep a variety of treats on hand, including options for dogs with dietary restrictions, and I have experience with grooming basics like bathing, drying, teeth cleaning, and nail clipping. With a strong understanding of dog behavior, I do everything I can to create a calm, trusting environment so your pup is safe and loved, and you can feel totally at ease.

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.
“Carlos was fantastic with our pup, who has some behavioral issues. He’s thoughtful and communicative, putting me at ease right away. Our high-energy pup came back tired, which is a minor miracle.”

About: I've been around cats and dogs my entire life, so being around animals has always felt natural to me. Although I'm new to professional pet sitting, I've had opportunities throughout my life to look after dogs for a few hours at a time. I enjoy spending time with animals, giving them attention, playing with them, and making sure they're comfortable and cared for. I'm excited to turn my lifelong love for animals into an opportunity to provide dependable, loving care for other people's pets. Although I don't currently have pets of my own, caring for animals is something I'd genuinely enjoy making part of my daily routine. I'd love the opportunity to spend time with cats and dogs, whether that means going on walks, playing, providing companionship, or making sure they're comfortable and well cared for while their owners are away. I'm prepared to plan my schedule around agreed-upon visits and care responsibilities so that each pet receives the time and attention it deserves. My priority is to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. In a client's home, I'd follow the owner's instructions regarding feeding, walking, playtime, and any specific routines or needs their pet may have. I'd keep a close eye on pets during walks and playtime, use leashes and other safety equipment as instructed, and make sure doors and gates are secure. I believe communication and trust are essential, so I'd keep owners updated and let them know if I noticed anything unusual. Whether we're going for a walk, playing, or simply spending time together, I'd treat each pet with patience, kindness, and respect while being mindful of the owner's home and rules.
“Sarah has provided us a fantastic first Rover experience. She is extremely communicative and we love the photo updates she sends. We would recommend her to other dog owners.”

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 !
