About: Hi folks. My name is Mad, and I’d love to support you in caring for your pet! I have a cat who is the center of my world and grew up with a mini golden doodle. I promise to treat your pet as my own, and understand the importance of learning each pet’s unique needs and quirks. I am happy to help with dog walks, cat visits, plant care, mail collection, etc. I’m based in Echo Park. Shoot me a message and I’ll get back to you shortly! I just quit my corporate job (wooo)!! I am very flexible with scheduling and can work around your pet’s needs. I have a car and am excited to fill some of my free time with animals. I will absolutely respect the systems that keep your pet safe and will be sure to send updates! I want you to feel comfortable knowing that your pet is well cared for with me.

About: I’ve been an animal lover as long as I can remember. Having four legs grants an automatic friendship with me! I have experience training my own dogs. They can sit, stay, stand, twirl, and sleep (I’m really good at teaching the latter). I also have experience helping animals with extreme health issues such as tube feeding, giving pills and liquid medicine, and caring for an animal in a fragile state. One of my dogs also has a very strict diet due to a health problem so I understand how important that can be. I have watched high energy dogs, anxious dogs, and everything in between, and I love getting to know the personality of new dogs! I am new to the city, so my schedule is very open to give time and affection to your pets! Maybe they can show me their favorite places! I’m respectful of a client’s space, and understand I am coming into your pet’s safe place. I approach with care and work to find what each pets boundaries are. I always appreciate detailed care instructions so I can be the bet sitter/walker for your pet.

“Brendon was great with our puppy. The updates had cute pictures and always included a nice note about his visit. He was always on time and was a wonderful with our dog.”

“Yasmin is amazing! I felt so comfortable being away with my dogs in her care. I received great updates with each drop-in. She’s a great communicator and I would not hesitate to hire her!”

About: My Pepper, Benji, and Koko can attest to my love of dogs and joy of taking them for walks. I also know that every dog is a unique character. My walks are tailored to your dog's energy level and pace. At home, I aim to make certain their food and water is fresh and delivered in the same way they are accustomed to. Is it warmed? With broth? Dry? I'll treat your pet like family so that you can be worry free during your time away. If you don't count my kitty, I just became an empty-nester which gives me a very flexible schedule. Then, when I considered my options for this new phase of life, I thought about how I find enormous joy in taking care of furry friends. So, working as pet sitter seems like a great fit to me. I'm really looking forward to all the big and little creatures I'm going to meet! Your baby will be in great hands. I promise to be generous with time to socialize with them and make certain their food, water, and potty break or litter box is top-notch. Over the last few years I have hired sitters from Rover for my own pets, so I think I have a good grasp on pet owner expectations and aim to make your time away from home worry free.

About: I had a spaniel growing up, as well as a miniature schnauzer that lives back in Russia with my parents :) I always happily take care of my friends’ dogs when they’re away. I have experience with Spaniels, Miniature Schnauzers, Cavapoos, Shiba Inu, Dalmatians and others. I work from home, 8-4 PST, Monday to Friday, and happy to keep a dog company while at it - he’ll do the same for me! I live in an apartment, no yard, I’d never leave the dog out of sight. While on a walk, the dog would always be on a leash.

“KC has taken care of Poki for us twice. Although Poki is usually stand-off-ish, she warmed up to him very quickly. KC is very reliable, accommodating, friendly, and professional.”

“Minh was absolutely wonderful! She was super responsive, attentive, and detail-oriented from the very beginning. She asked all the right questions and made sure she was fully prepared before the appointment. Throughout the entire time, she kept me updated with thoughtful notes and lots of pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind. You can really tell that she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after. Truly a great experience, and I highly recommend Minh to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to take care of their pup!”

About: Finding care for my special needs dog has always stressed me out! I hope I can alleviate that stress for you and your pup. I have years of experience caring for a paralyzed dog (cart use, bladder expression, etc.). I am comfortable with caring for dogs recovering from surgery, injuries, administering medicine, you name it. I work a 9-5 but I am available for weekend boarding and drop-ins/ walks any time on the weekend or evenings during the week. I have a small fenced in yard for some fresh air and sunbathing. For boarding, Ghost (my little guy) will be happy to welcome your dog into our home (and onto our daily 3 mile walk if your dog is up to it)!

“Rebekah was great! She sent detailed updates, photos and videos while I was away. My cars are usually scared of strangers but they warmed up to her after only one day! Have already booked her again. Highly recommend!”

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".

“Sam did great with Rocky! Our dog can be a little shy at first, but Sam was so patient with him!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life. I love taking long walks around the city so having a furry companion with me is a great bonus, and for the older sleepier pets I am happy to spend a night sitting with them and am experienced in administering oral medications. I always make sure to take lots of great photos of your pets while I’m caring for them. I’m currently working freelance so I have lots of flexibility in my schedule. Happy to pet sit any day of the week or check in on pets throughout the day. Though always please check my calendar for updated availability. I can’t take care of pets at my place because I share my house but I’m happy to take care of your dogs at your house, having done it for years with my own animals and others. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or chill and cuddly I am ready to meet them where they are at. Of course I will make sure they are fed, watered, and have any medication they may need.

About: Animals have a really special place in my heart, especially dogs. I remember being a kid and getting allergy tested, the one thing I crossed my fingers not to be allergic to was dogs. I’ve been taking care of them since I was 8 years old. I was stoked when we adopted our family dog Max at 4 months old in 2020. He is the highlight of being home when I visit the Bay. Aside from Max I have taken care of plenty of puppies ranging from 4 months to 1 year as well as senior dogs who require more attention. I’m based in Los Angeles working in Studio City part time up to full time, but my hours are nontraditional giving me some flexibility! I’ve been loving getting to be more active in my daily routine so walks, park visits, going to the beach, and chillin in the backyard have been a lovely rotation and would be so fun to do with your fur baby. First and foremost, I always like to specify the type of care your pet needs. This means knowing all the details of your pet to ensure that you & your baby are happy and comfortable. I want to know about training up-keep, dietary instructions, triggers, personality, habits, playtime, enrichment, and boundaries. Secondly, I’m always wanting to make sure I leave a place better than I found it so of course whatever I use for your fur baby I will keep clean and organized. With the whole process I understand that I’m the acting parent until you return, so I want to make sure it’s a smooth transition in and out!

About: I've lived with cats my entire life! I had one in the house while growing up and have continued to live with roommates who had cats until October 2021 when I got my own kittens :) Every time I go to someone's house with kitties, they come out of their hiding spaces to cuddle me. I've been told dozens of times "Wow! He's never friendly with new people!" as typically bashful cats warm up to me in no time. I also love dogs and have enjoyed taking care of them. I especially love how walks get me outside in the sun. I have two cats I take care of, but I also live with my boyfriend, who is a great cat dad, and can therefore leave him to task when I cat sit for others. I love to snuggle cats but can also sense when they'd rather be left alone! I have very strong pet intuition and my goal will always be to make sure your cat is as comfortable & as happy as can be :)
