“Lillian is terrific. On time, thoughtful and diligent. She is flexible as well, and was able to extend her time with us no problem. And the doggies loved her! Highly recommend!”
“Emilie is the perfect sitter for my cat Bunny! I really wanted to find someone who Bunny felt comfortable with and who I could trust to look after her, and I am so, so glad I found Emilie. Emilie has the best energy and they are kind, attentive, and caring to both my cat and the space. Having someone I trust in my home to look after my cat as well as the peace of mind I felt while I was away is deeply invaluable to me. And I love that Bunny now has a new friend! I just got home and Bunny is so relaxed and calm- it just reaffirms that choosing Emilie was the right and best choice. Already booked them for another weekend!”
“Gabriana was so sweet with our anxious pup and met all of her specific needs. Gabriana also went above and beyond taking care of our home. We are very much looking forward to booking her again in the future!”
“Yuka was such a great caretaker for our dog Ivy! She communicated regularly and sent wonderful updates. We could tell she formed a strong bond with our dog. We would definitely have her stay with Ivy again!”
“Ninon is our go-to sitter at our new home in LA — she has really helped Olive (and us!) adjust to the move by being attentive and loving for our old lady. We really appreciate that she seems to get Olive as much as we do.”
“Michelle is such a professional! We left our two pups with her for Labor Day and she took great care of them. Even when Gloria was sick, Michelle went out and got things to cook a bland diet, gave us updates, and helped her get back to normal! She gave us daily picture updates too!”
“Maya is a dream! They’ve watched our 9 month old puppy while I had an intense work week and did so with great attentiveness and love. Also kept us posted of how the day went. We loved working with Maya!”
About: Hi! My name is Sam. I’m an Echo Park musician and animal lover interested in giving your furry best friend the care and devotion they deserve. I have a lot of experience with dogs and cats and truly love them both! I have owned and lived around them all of my life. I'm very active and love hiking, going on runs, and walking around this amazing city we live in. Since I’m new to Rover I don’t have a lot of reviews yet, but I’d love to start with a phone or video call soon to establish trust and a sense of connection. I am interested in building ongoing relationships to local pet owners and hope to become someone you can rely on for daily walks to extended stays while you’re out of town. I am a non-smoker, tidy, very punctual (usually early), an excellent communicator and also have reliable transportation to accommodate bigger dogs for special outings. Message me to set up a call! I look forward to hearing from you. Have a beautiful day! My schedule is pretty flexible, so I will work with your needs to give your pet some love and attention when they most need it. I will spend lots of quality time with your pet. I love walking and hiking so would be happy to take your dog for walks/play time outside. I also believe in the importance of ensuring cats and dogs both have adequate enrichment so would make sure they had plenty of play time and time to cuddle, as appropriate to their age and interests.
“Harry did an awesome job taking care of the gang. He was able to help us out on short notice, gave amazing care, left the place clean, and provided great updates. Our trip was much more enjoyable knowing Harry was keeping our pets safe.”
About: For the past 5 years, I have been the go-to for friends, family, neighbors and co-workers who need a sitter for their furry loved-one. An avid animal lover since childhood, I’ve sat adult dogs, cats, puppies, rescue animals suffering from anxiety and behavioral issues, as well as senior pets- my family beagle just turned 16! I’m lucky enough to have full availability for pet care. Now that my job has gone fully remote and flexible, I’ve decided to dedicate the time to my true passion- caring for animals. I have extensive experience taking care of all kinds of pets and all kinds of pet personalities. I’ve developed a knack for building relationships with animals quickly, which is key to making them feel safe and loved. Not having a defined work schedule allows me the time to focus on them as I won’t be gone for long hours at a time. My relationship-building experience and availability allows me to care for pets who have special needs.
About: I've always loved animals since i was gifted a puppy at 7 years old. I love playing with them, going on walkies, and i always make sure they are well taken care of. I'll always make each day the best day ever for them! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets consistent care and attention throughout the day. I treat every pet like my own. I stick to their normal routine, give them lots of love and attention, make sure they’re well fed, exercised, and comfortable, and keep a close eye on their well-being.
“Karen was great! Was able to take our request at the last minute and was super communicative and responsive. Riggins is increasingly picky as he gets older and seems like he had a relaxing weekend with her :) Will definitely be using her sitting services again.”
“Polli was wonderful! Our pup was in great hands. She communicated daily with updates, and made sure to keep our dog safe and secure while we had construction happening in our yard. She responded immediately when we reached out, with photos and anecdotes that made us certain our Captain was well cared for. Our house was kept tidy, and we came home to a happy healthy dog. Thank you, Polli!!”
About: I started pet sitting for neighbors in middle school, and have a knack for winning over (or the grudging respect of) even the grumpiest of cats and have cared for dogs both big and small! I have a flexible WFH schedule that allows me to be on hand for you and your pets’ needs, whether it’s walking, house visits, or sitting. Consider me tech avail LA to hang with your furry pal! I am always sure to tailor my care to each pet’s individual needs and personality, drawing on my years of experience as well as their parents’ instructions.

Alexis is a wonderful sitter for my senior dog! She is so kind, gentle, and attentive to his needs and wants. Alexis gives me updates throughout the day, which always include cute photos. As my dog has gotten older and his needs increased, she has been so willing to help him out. I’m so grateful to have someone that I can trust with my old man!
From the moment we met Diane at our meet and greet we knew right away it would be a good fit. She has great calming energy which is so important when handling animals in my opinion. She is smart, and prompt with time, and asks the right questions. She took photos throughout and sent them along to let us know our dogs were in good hands. I would definitely book Diane again and hope you do too!
Leaving Avery is tough, but knowing Sophie looking after her makes it easier. It’s reassuring to see Avery having such a great time and staying entertained. The best part is that Avery is always calm and happy when I get home, and she's genuinely excited every time she sees Sophie. I couldn't ask for a better sitter!
LaTamarra is a phenomenal sitter. My canine companion Isabella and I can’t sing her praises enough. Our last sitting session saw LaTamarra not only show her professionalism and personal care to my pooch but she also extended it to me. She is truly an extension of our family. My dog experiences separation anxiety in her absence. I highly recommend her but only on dates that I don’t need her.
Carmela was the absolute best. She did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our dog and cat, and we felt completely at ease while we were away. She was the perfect amount of communicative with thoughtful updates that never felt overwhelming. She was beyond respectful of our home, kept everything clean, and clearly spent quality time cuddling and caring for our pets. As an anxious pet parent, it is not easy for me to leave our animals, but Carmela made me feel fully comfortable and confident they were in great hands. We came home to happy pets and would absolutely book her again.
We hit the jackpot with Michelle. Not only is she on time, communicative and conscientious, she went above and beyond to make sure our highly anxious dog, Finn, was calm while we were gone. She sent pics and notes to assure us. We will definitely use her services again.
Alex’s car got towed because I told her the wrong information and she was so patient and kind. She really goes above and beyond for my kitties when I’m gone. I can really enjoy time with my family far away knowing my little family of cats will always be taken care of in Alex’s care. Thank you!
We are always so happy with Katy! She makes sure all of our animals are safe and healthy. It’s so nice to leave them without stressing on their well being, we know all Is well when Katy is with them. Repeat customer already and will continue to be! Thank you so much!
