“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!”
“Really appreciate Stephanie for watching over our two cats. She did an amazing job, was prompt and really communicative. She sent me tons of photos and text updates with every visit. I’ll definitely be booking Stephanie again. So happy to have found her on Rover!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since I was five, and caring for pets has been a joyful part of my life ever since! I’ve had all kinds of furry, feathery, and scaly friends over the years, including dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, turtles, fish, and even some exotic animals. Every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. What sets me apart? I’m gentle, playful, and full of energy; I’ll run around with your pup, snuggle your kitty, or keep your bunny entertained with enrichment activities. I’ve cared for puppies and kittens and know just how much extra love and patience they need during their early stages. I also understand the delicateness and special care required for senior pets and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and supported every step of the way. When your pet is with me, they’re not just being looked after; they’re being loved, spoiled, and treated like family. I can’t wait to meet your furry (or not-so-furry) friend! I am fairly flexible! Mon-Fridays are best but I can also do weekends when given enough notice. I can also do anytime of the day, my ideal hours are between 8am-8pm I currently have a pet bunny, whom I adore and care for with lots of love and intention. His routine includes fresh meals twice a day, constant access to clean water and hay, and daily interaction through enrichment activities. We bond over treats, gentle grooming sessions, and quality time together—whether it's cuddles at home or occasional visits to the park or beach for a change of scenery. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same level of patience, attentiveness, and respect. I make sure their space is clean, their needs are met, and that they feel safe, stimulated, and loved while you're away. I pay close attention to details; whether it's maintaining feeding schedules, administering medications, or simply tuning in to their moods and comfort levels. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority.
“Sabrina always takes excellent care of my cats. Great communication, punctual and friendly. I know I can rely on her to do the job and that she cares about the needs of the cats. Excellent choice for petsitter.”
About: Not only do I have a dog of my own that i care for, feed, walk and bathe but friends and family have also relied on me to look after their dogs as well. I’m currently working part time. This will allow me to have a pretty flexible schedule and allow me more time with your dogs! Im available anytime Tuesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday! I put the safety of your dogs first. I use body block methods to keep my clients dogs safe on walks in the event I'm charged by off leash dogs but will also avoid dogs as an extra precaution unless you state that it’s okay.
“Liv was wonderful! She's a great communicator and the cats loved her. My super shy kitty even came out to greet her which has never happened before! I will definitely tap Liv whenever I'm on vacation.”
About: I love dogs! I am a current dog walker and I also have my own dogs. I have the experience to be able to handle your pet with love and care. I have a flexible schedule and will be willing to go over and dog sit. I would also love to board dogs for a few days. I enjoy working with dogs and would love to be able to care for the dog. I have had experience with different types of dogs and different types of personalities so I can handle any situation well and professionally. I also have some experience in grooming. I can also walk for a long time especially for dogs that need more exercise. So I would love to meet your dogs. I'm currently working part time so I have more than enough time to take care of your fur babies. I am usually free on weekdays I have a big fenced yard. I also have cats and dogs that would love to play with your fur babies as well. I also love to play with them
“This was a meet and greet session so that we could get to know Carly up close. She's a gentle person who has a kindness towards animals. We look forward to booking her in the future to see what she can offer to our two dogs.”
About: Hi! My name is Kyle. I have always been an animal person since as far back as I can remember. After about a decade of begging my mother for a puppy she finally adopted us a pug named Alfie who was the light of my life for 13 glorious years. I currently live in Silverlake with my 2 rescued shar pei daughters, Zara and Muriel. They are truly my pride and joy. We love curling up together on the couch, sunning ourselves on our balcony, and taking long walks around the reservoir. In addition to taking care of my own pets, I have also always been a go-to to watch friends' and neighbors' dogs, cats, fish, rabbits, etc. since I was about 10 years old, and it has continued on to this day. I am currently self-employed, so I have total flexibility with my hours, and should be able to accommodate you and your pet(s)'s needs within reason. I have a lot of experience taking care of animals. When on a walk or outside I will not let your dog(s) off leash or out of my sight (even for a second) given the native wildlife in the area.
About: I’ve had multiple dogs my whole life. The first dog I trained and raised on my own was 11 years ago. I currently foster dogs and puppies. I volunteer at dog and cat spay and neuter clinics. I only go into the office twice a week. The days I’m at work, my dogs aren’t left alone for more than 4 hours at a time. I have a small fenced side yard. I live near echo park lake so walks there are always a great way to get out. Due to fostering puppies my house is pretty puppy proofed already.
About: Hi, I’m Ron! I’ve been caring for and training dogs for over 15 years, and I currently share my home with my five-year-old dog, Leela. She’s friendly, socialized, and loves meeting new pups. I understand what dogs truly need; exercise, structure, and attention. I walk Leela three times a day (each for 30–60 minutes), plus extra breaks for fresh air and playtime. Whether your dog loves high-energy walks or prefers a slower pace, I adjust their routine to make sure they’re happy, balanced, and fulfilled. Over the years, I’ve worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments. From playful puppies to senior companions, I know how to read their cues, keep them motivated, and help them feel calm and cared for. I work from home full-time, which means I can give your dog plenty of attention throughout the day. My typical schedule includes morning, midday, and evening walks — along with time for meals, play, and rest. Your dog will never be left alone for long, and I can easily accommodate feeding or potty schedules that fit their usual routine. Whether you need day care, walks, or overnight boarding, I’m flexible and reliable. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is clean, secure, and dog-friendly, with cozy rest spots and plenty of space to relax or play. I always supervise dogs closely, use leashes for every walk, and make sure they have fresh water, and comfort throughout the day. Before any stay, I like to schedule a meet-and-greet so your dog can get comfortable in the space and meet Leela. This helps me learn about their routines, temperament, and any special needs and ensures that everyone feels at ease from the start. Since I work from home full-time, I’m around to give them consistent attention and care. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you always know how your pup is doing. My goal is to make your dog feel loved, secure, and part of the pack while you’re away.
“Harry was great and very attentive to our dogs. He went above and beyond during his visits to make sure things were clean and to give our dogs attention. He was very prepared for rain and shine, and everything our dogs threw at him. I would definitely recommend Harry to others, and will use him again.”
“Avery was so good to my shy pets, she was communicative and responsive, sweet and really accommodating to all instructions and advice. Received daily photos and updates about them, my pets were so happy with her, thank you so much for being so caring.”
“Sean was really sweet towards my two cats. This was going to be the first time that I was going to be away from my cats for a prolonged period of time and my cats are on the shy side, so I was initially worried that they wouldn't respond well to him and would give him a hard time. But Sean was really patient and eager to make sure I knew that my cats were being taken care of and I always knew he was doing his best to make sure my cats were fed. Additionally, he was also very responsive to my texts and gave me updates on his visits. I'll definitely be rebooking him in the future!”
About: I’m a dog mom myself and have nothing, but love and scritches to share! I’ve worked with dogs and cats of many different and breeds and different age ranges. I have experience with medication administration (both cats and dogs) and training (for dogs). I have experience with shy, timid and reactive dogs, as I went through this first hand with my own dog. I also feel thag I connect well with pets that are more reserved as I myself am a more reserved and shy individual(: I’m currently pursuing my degree to become a nurse. To juggle the workload, pet sitting/dog walking is a great fit into my daily and or weekly routine(: It is preferred for me to take care of your pets in your home, since it is more comfortable and less stressful for your pet! I will always provide videos/pictures and a report card after the end of each visit. I typically send very detailed reports, but this can be adjusted upon your preference!
Echo Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
Sophia did an incredible job caring for our cats! Our cat Freya is very fussy when taking her daily pill. Something previous sitters have struggled with, which has caused health issues when we returned from past trips. This time, it wasn’t a problem at all! Sophia successfully gave Freya her pill every day, and we came home to a healthy, happy cat. Our other cat, Dani, is usually very shy around strangers, but she warmed up to Sophia right away. Sophia was communicative, punctual, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. I’m so relieved to have finally found a sitter I can fully trust to care for our cats the way we do. Book her!! You won’t regret it!
This is my third time trusting Seungyeon with my girls. She’s great as always! Lily was not feeling her best before my trip so I left Seungyeon with some special notes. And she really paid attention to them. She was updating me with how Lily was doing every day and always trying to play with them. I’m so glad I found Seungyeon 💛💛
I had to leave my cats for 10 days, which is twice as long as I’d ever left them for. I was really anxious about it, especially because one of them is very afraid of strangers, but Laura took great care of them. The shy cat even warmed up to her and would cuddle with her at the end of the day. Laura also watered my plants while I was gone and was on top of things. Super grateful to her and would definitely rebook!
Anasol was great! My boys can be a little shy and nervous when meeting new people, but she was so patient and understanding. She gave them space, let them approach her at their own pace, and followed all my directions perfectly. She arrived on time and was consistent every day. I really appreciated her care and reliability!
Tina was a fantastic choice when it came to picking someone to watch my kitty! She is super responsive, on time, and managed everything that came to my cat while I was gone. I can’t wait to have her back when I go out of town next; she is someone I can rely on.
