About: As an owner of a big, powerful dog I know it can be difficult finding a walker who can handle their size and avoid unsafe situations. So if you have a large breed friend who requires a strong leader, I’d love to take them for a walk, safely! Freelance film maker with a lot of free time. I’m available during the week and on weekends. I have a dog but would walk your dog(s) separately. I have a large friendly dog named Rudi. I can board your dog as long as they can meet beforehand to make sure they get along. I have a large fenced in back yard as well as a good size, private porch area. We live in echo park with plenty of dog friendly areas and parks.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, and have been lucky to live with pets for the majority of my life. In the past few years I’ve had the opportunity to dog sit for a lot of folks in my neighborhood, and have taken care of dogs small and big! I love trotting around town with a pup! :’) I work remotely and have a flexible work schedule, so I’m able to easily work pet care into my daily routine. I have a car, so I’m able to get around! I am very attentive to your pup, and make sure to stay vigilant while guiding your dog on a walk - especially around the busy city!

About: Experienced pet owner (3 dogs, 3 cats, currently own 1 dog) and dog fosterer between 2016-2018 for multiple organizations! I recently had a stray dog take shelter on my patio, likely not a coincidence, and after a week of coaxing managed to bring her inside my home with crate training (my dog Petunia was a great companion) and get her into rescue! See 3rd photo! I truly love animals and have experience with all sizes, energy levels and even fear based aggression. I administer meds to my dog daily and am extremely specific when it comes to my own dog's care, so I know what it means to be a client with high expectations! I love getting to know and develop bonds with animals and it has always been natural to me. Depending on your dog, my dog Petunia can cohabitate with yours or yours with mine. I have a flexible remote schedule, with more availability on Fridays and Saturdays. Afternoons and evenings during the week work very well for me! I consider any Rover service a delightful respite where I can disconnect amd focus on your pet! I have my own dog (see photos) so for extended dogsitting I can bring her to yours or have yours stay with us! I am very good about making a calm entrance to reassure any pet and get to know each pet "on their level".

“I would highly recommend Hailey! She took very good care of my cat Taro. She was very reliable and sent a lot of very cute photos of dinner and playtime. I felt like he was in very good hands. Thank you Hailey!”

“KC was fantastic! Super reliable, great communication, and Leia had a great time on the walks!”

About: Hey, I'm Nicky. Growing up as a farm kid, I've cared for all animals, especially various dog breeds big and small my entire life. Wife and I, live in Silver Lake as the proud pup parents of 2 adorable poodles. I work from home and my schedule is open and flexible, so your pet is my number one priority during their 5 star stay at Dog's Best Friend. We've been boarding happy dogs with Rover since 2022 and 10 years before that we boarded, dropped-in and walked doggie clients all around the TMZ. Available 24/7, for essential meet and greets with your doggie. Available 24/7, for doggie drop-offs and pick-ups. Our spacious backyard allows us to be very active daily and big enough to welcome all our doggie guests, any size, any energy level, I love them all. When we all snuggle up to chill after an active doggie day, your fur babies will have plenty of their own space, their own room when they want it and multiple comfortable sleep options, including their own dog bed or our snuggly couch all night if they like. Nothing brings me more joy than caring for all our loving furry friends. I live for their love and as Timothy Treadwell said, "I will die for these bears." In my care, they get everything they need, nothing they can't have and all the love they can handle with my undivided attention day and night. I'm always available to give your fur babies the best care they can get and love them like my own, so fear not, Dog's Best Friend is your baby’s home away from home! I am usually booked with loyal distinguished clients daily, so when your dog books a stay with us, they will be kept totally separate from the pack until they've all calmed down enough to meet. That way we can be absolutely sure there will be no issues between them. Even as they meet and greet, they will be separated by our tall interior doggie gate and introduced slowly and methodically. We've never had an issue with pet aggression between our doggies and clients and this process ensures stranger dogs become friends because we always set them up to win! You can trust your pet is safe here and always welcomed by our pack! Beware, your pup may not want to leave Dog's Best Friend! "Nickolas was the best Rover I have ever booked!!! I just know my dog was so well taken care of and loved as if she was his own dog. She didn’t even want to leave when I picked her up. Nickolas was constantly playing ball with her, giving her tummy rubs, and taking her running. He sent me so many pictures and videos so I always knew what Poppy was up to. I will absolutely be booking with Nickolas again." -Maya H. I’m a 24/7 caregiver, best friend, provider, poodle whisperer and round-up specialist to our super chill senior Poodle Kai and our young rambunctious Maltipoo Rocco. From this veteran dog lover, your furry besties will absolutely get a healthy abundance of compassionate, unconditional love. It's as simple as that. As a work from home musician and entertainment business owner, my independent schedule gives me the flexibility to care for all of our furry baby boys and girls around the clock. Our spacious fenced backyard is where we get all the pups running around safely with balls toys and treats of course. In the summer heat we'll fill the shallow doggie pool to cool down. Silver Lake Reservoir Park is close by, so the size and energy of your dog will determine the workout we can do. As an active long distance track and cross country runner through college and since, I can match any dog’s activity level. I depend on you to tell me what you’d like your dog to experience during their active luxurious stay. They'll get what they need but I'll never over work them. We have enough room and plenty of toys to play inside or out and plenty of doggie space and couch seating for that ever important doggie rest, which they'll get plenty of too!

About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and I have over 10 years of experience caring for my family, friends’, and neighbors’ pets. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter where I helped with puppies, welcoming potential adopters, and organizing donations. I currently have a dog of my own (a 5.5 year old poodle mix) and understand how important consistency, patience, and clear communication are. Whether your dog loves playtime or just having a calm companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide regular updates and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently on summer break from law school and working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m available for drop-in visits on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of consistency and will make sure your pet receives reliable care, attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away. As a dog owner, I plan my day around my pet’s needs and will do the same for yours. Whether that means waking up early for a walk before the weather gets too warm, sticking to a specific feeding schedule, or providing enrichment through puzzle toys, treats, and playtime, I prioritize each pet’s comfort and well-being. I’m attentive to routines, safety instructions, and any special needs, and I will always keep you updated so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

About: I bring over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, breeds, and personalities, from rambunctious puppies to gentle seniors and blind dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I’ve had 7 dogs, 5 cats, a horse, rabbits, hamsters, and even a rat over the years, so I’m well-versed in all kinds of animal quirks, needs, and love languages. I have a calm, intuitive way with animals - the kind of energy that helps anxious pets feel safe and confident. I’m experienced in administering medications, supporting dogs with chronic or multiple medical conditions, and tailoring routines to keep them comfortable and happy. Whether it’s crate training a new puppy, giving meds on a strict schedule, or providing gentle companionship to a senior dog who just wants company, I meet each pet exactly where they are. I treat every animal like my own - with patience, love, and genuine care. Pet care fits naturally into my lifestyle. As a freelance creative working mostly from home, I have a flexible schedule that lets me be fully present with pets. Walks, playtime, feeding, and snuggles are part of my daily rhythm, and I structure my work around their needs to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I provide attentive, reliable care whether in my home or a client’s home. This includes feeding on schedule, administering medications if needed, providing walks, playtime, and companionship, and ensuring a safe, comfortable environment. I tailor care to each pet’s personality and routine.

About: We're writers and seasoned pet lovers/carers who live in a two-bedroom apartment in Silver Lake with a bucolic fenced in yard. We're ready to love-bomb your pup and ply them with as many treats as they are allowed to have. Senior pups and youngins welcome. We'll toss balls or play tug of war or lounge around. Your pup's wish is our command. We recently said goodbye to our pup of 17+ years and miss tail wags and dog antics. We only host one pup at a time and that way we give your pup all our love and full attention during their stay. We both work from home, and are active folks who love to go on long walks around the neighborhood, or chill on the couch if that's what your pup prefers. We also have a closed-in yard with birds visiting the feeders and fountain, and we enjoy sitting outside with a furry friends on nice days. We just said goodbye to our furry bestie after 17+ years together and suffice it to say, our lives revolved around him. Be it cooking him gourmet meals from scratch, taking him on multiple walks a day, or strolls in a cart when his legs became too weak, we were always together. We miss having dog energy in the home and would be thrilled to cuddle up or pal around with your pup. We have central AC and Heat too, so if your pup gets hot or cold, we're on the case.

“This was my first time using Rover and Nico made sure to make it the most seamless introduction possible. I booked him last minute with my wife in labor and he stepped in and gave the most outstanding care to my Cavapoo and took such great care of him. He provided many updates and followed every request on the instructions. To find such great help in a time of need was amazing. Nico is very personable as well and I look forward to using him as a sitter for Brownie in the future!!”

“Minh was awesome and I will absolutely be booking her again! Ahead of the house visit she did a meet and greet with Rey and she asked very thoughtful questions. Her thoroughness put my helicopter mom brain at ease. She was prompt, sent pics and was an excellent communicator. Highly recommend!”

About: I take care of your pet like they’re my own! Animals are the most important thing in my life. I'd do anything for my dog, but truthfully, I'd do anything for any dog! I’m caring, considerate, and clean. After about 7 years of professionally dog and cat sitting, I got my own Quarantine Dog. I will take care of your pets with love and mindfulness- following any requests you may have! Walks, runs and playtime. Snuggles, cuddles and comfort. Need medicine administrated? I'm good at that, too! Have issues with reactivity or food guarding? Just an anxious dog overall? Trust me, I'm very familiar. No judgement here! Although I'm not a trainer, I've dealt with these issues with my own dog, as well as others. I know how to handle these needs with care, for the comfort and safety for everyone in involved. Is your baby just a little quirky, maybe? If you need their paws wiped down after every walk, imaginary food sprinkled in their bowl to eat, or needs classical music to fall asleep? I can definitely handle that! I would love to be your best friends caretaker. My schedule is very flexible. I like to dedicate as much time as possible to my pet clients, and typically try to keep one client at a time for maximum attention. I do not provide home boarding, but I am happy to take care of your pup in your own home. I keep a very clean space and respect house rules easily. Taking care of the dog in your home is important so they feel at home.

“Lauren is the sweetest! My cat adores her and is genuinely excited for her drop-ins. Loved getting her photos and notes while we were away. We had some funky stuff going on with our electronics after a power failure and she was extremely detailed in her efforts to help get things back to normal from afar. Will absolutely book her again and highly recommend.”

Brie D.

“Thomas helped me out at the last moment when my scheduled sitter cancelled. I really appreciated his quick, eager and professional response. He literally dropped everything to help me and my pet. He definitely knows how to handle pets with care, as well as how to handle different pet personalities. Thank You so much!”

About: I've been caring for my own dog along with friends and family's pups for the past 15+ years! From assisting a friend daily with walking and potty training her brand new puppy to walking and caring for my own pup for over 10 years. I also regularly assisted my mom who walked and boarded dogs full time for many years and I now look after her 2 mid-sized rescues regularly when she travels. I am a dog & cat lover & look forward to looking after your babies. I currently have fairly flexible availability. Would love to take care of your morning & midday weekday walks and am available for overnights, as well. Also open to longer walks/hikes if your pup needs. I'm extremely respectful of clients' space and needs. Would likely spend minimal time in the home unless explicitly discussed and happy to care for plants, get mail, etc. as well.
