About: I stand out for my hands on experience caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including senior dogs who require medication morning and night, cats who need medication, and dogs with anxiety who benefit from a calm, patient approach. I’m experienced with overnight care, vet visits, walks, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and prioritize clear communication, providing regular updates so pet owners always feel confident and at ease. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, as well as weekends. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and exercise. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort, and safety at all times, and I’m experienced with administering medication and caring for pets with anxiety or special needs. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, secure, and at home.

About: Ever since I was was about 13, I've always been the person to call if someone was going out of down and they needed someone to watch their dogs. I've been able to properly care for 7 dogs at most at a time. I love dogs and will do my very best to make sure they are well taken care of. I love being outside, so I am more than willing to go outside with your dog whenever they need or want to. Making sure your dog gets as much love (if not more than) as you give them is a big priority for me. I've taken care of breeds from Chihuahuas to Saint Bernards. You can trust in me to be the best sitter for your dog.

I recently started a new job that requires long hours. I was nervous thinking about my almost 2 yr old fur baby being alone for so long. After searching numerous sitters, I found Mry and she had countless positive reviews. I decided to reach out and I am so glad I did. Mry comes to my home twice per week to walk my dog. She is so attentive and caring to our fur baby. She is also very accommodating and flexible so if I need to add another day last minute, there has been no issue. She is also very reliable when it comes to not only the safety of my dog but also our home. By chance, my father arrived at our house to visit earlier than expected and it was at the time Mry was walking our dog. She politely informed him that she could not let him in as this was not her home but he was more than welcome to use the provided lock box to prove he was not a stranger! She has been in constant communication with us and sends us immediate feedback after the walk with pictures. She also works on training with our dog and reinforcing certain commands. I can 1000000% recommend Mry to ANYONE who needs their fur baby looked after. She is truly amazing and I have had nothing but great experiences with her.

About: I had dogs and cats growing up, and was the exclusive dog walker for the family. I enjoyed being the one who was active with the dog on walks and to get out energy when needed. Dog walking is more than just getting your dog outside. It's about making sure they feel safe, cared for, exercised, and happy while you’re away. I currently have multiple cats and love playing and cuddling with them on a daily basis. Each cat has a unique personality, so I can adapt to their mood at any given time. What sets me apart from pet sitters is the attention I give to each pet's individual needs, personality, and routine. I am reliable, patient, a good communicator, and make every interaction a positive experience, so both you and your pet (no matter how big or small) feel comfortable and confident. I look forward to caring for your pets! I have a flexible schedule throughout the week and weekend. I can be available for drop-ins as needed. Please reach out with any pet needs! I make sure to provide plenty of food and water, clean litter boxes on a daily basis and give lots of play and cuddle time. Each pet is unique, so happy to adjust as needed.

Our first time using this app since we needed a last minute pup walker. I found Nancy and she responded within the hour. She took our fur baby for a 30 min walk, sent us plenty of pictures, and updates. She was def really nice and attentive to our requests. We’ll definitely keep her as our puppy’s friendly walker when we are unable to walk him. Thank you for everything Nancy! Frankie also appreciates you!

About: With over eight years of hands-on pet care experience, I don’t just “watch” animals — I build real bonds with them. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, with patience, protection, and affection at the center of everything I do. Their happiness, trust, and tail wags are truly the greatest reward. I am a freelance professional makeup artist working part time, so I have plenty of free time to care for your furry friends and felines! When I care for your pets in your home, I treat the entire space with the same respect and attention I give your animals. I follow their routines closely, provide loving companionship, and make sure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their familiar environment. While I am there taking care of your pets, I am also taking care of your home — keeping a clean, safe, and mess-free space for your animal to relax in. You can return to a happy pet and a well-maintained home.

Kyle did an amazing Job walking our large dog once a day while I was out of town. He truly came through when we needed him, to get our dog the long walk he needed once a day. He provided numerous pictures everyday while they were out on walks to provide my family with the assurances we all desire when we're not around. We will certainly think of him first in the future!

About: I don't have any experience owning a dog myself, but I often interact with my friends' dogs and get along well with them. I love dogs, am attentive to their behavior, and strive to be calm and caring. I follow owner instructions responsibly, understand the importance of safety on walks, and am willing to learn and grow as a dog walker. I have a flexible schedule and work part-time, so my availability may vary. However, I always confirm bookings in advance and only accept tours I'm confident I can complete. If a booking is accepted, I will complete it on time and in full. I strive to be punctual and notify you in advance of any changes. I'm very attentive to animal safety and always follow owner instructions. I use a leash on walks, am aware of my surroundings, and avoid potentially dangerous situations. I have a cat named Mikko at home, whom I groom regularly, so I understand the importance of caring for pets, keeping them clean, and providing a calm environment. I'm a calm, tidy, and reliable person.

About: First time clients please enjoy $20 off your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/chanwl43421 As a full-time clinical psychologist working from home, I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with the dogs I care for. Your pup won’t be left alone or bored. I’m here throughout the day for companionship, playtime, and attentive supervision. What makes our home extra special is that my lovely and caring spouse also works from home. This means your dog will always have someone around, receiving attention, love, and care from both of us. There’s never a moment where they’ll be left out or overlooked. I have hands-on experience with rescue dogs, and I’ve personally adopted and trained one myself. This experience, combined with my professional background in behavioral psychology, allows me to understand dogs’ needs on a deeper level from anxiety and attachment to motivation and habit-building. We always welcome a meet & greet before booking. There’s a large, quiet park right by our home where we can meet in a neutral setting, talk through your dog’s needs and routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. Feel free to reach out and schedule one! Above all, your dog’s safety is my number one priority. Rover provides strong safety guidelines, and I’ve already had positive experiences using Rover’s tools to handle unexpected situations with calm and flexibility. You can trust that your pup will be in capable and loving hands. I work from home on weekdays, which gives me the flexibility to provide care throughout the day. I’m generally available at most times during the week, and with a little notice, I can usually accommodate weekend requests as well. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and personalized environment for every dog in my care whether it's for daycare or home boarding. I take time to understand each pup’s unique needs, follow their routines closely, and provide lots of love and attention to help them feel at home. Whether your dog stays at my home or I care for them in yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow your dog's routine closely and always keep safety top of mind whether it's leash rules on walks, feeding instructions, or respecting boundaries around other pets. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play. I never leave dogs unattended, and I provide regular check-ins and updates so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands.

Bryanna has been great with our dog Buster and takes lots of pictures and even videos during her visits. She is good at communicating and responds to messages quickly. She's dependable and shows up when she says she will and we are really happy to have found her. She brings her dog to play with Buster and it's been a great arrangement for Buster to have a friend and more socialization. She was willing to just come herself to take Buster on his walk if they didn't get along. We hope Bryanna continues to be available to visit Buster.

About: I started as a Rover pet owner for services and now have the freedom to provide those services. I am patient and careful when caring for dogs because I know they are someone’s family and dog’s have the sweetest hearts. When I first moved to LA in 2018, I overcame my fear of dogs and lived with the sweetest pitbull, JoJo. Now, I have two of my own small dogs— they are my world. My schedule is very flexible. I am currently not working and have plenty free time (until my next opportunity begins). I prefer to stay busy so hopefully this will increase productivity. I am protective of my dogs and would ensure your dog’s compatibility with mine before walking them together or sitting in my home. Otherwise, I’m happy to care for your’s solo during walks or drop-in visits. My dogs are **flea-free** and healthy. My yard is very safe and I have a **FUN SPLASH PAD OUTDOORS** for them to play in during hot weather. I imagine many dog parents on this app care for their fur babies as much as I do, and I will be incredibly mindful of your needs / requests.

Zoey has been such a great help for us. I couldn't walk our fur baby for a few weeks and Zoey has been amazing with our dog. She's been very patient with her (our dog takes time to get used to new people), always writing detailed notes about the walks and always reliable rain or sunshine. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs someone to walk or care for their pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Encino dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Encino.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services.

In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
