About: I have lived with and cared for dogs my whole life. Our family dog passed a year ago and caring for my son’s dog has made me realize how much I love having dogs around. I am retired, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your pups. I am available for boarding seven days a week. I have a fenced yard with ample room for play. Your furry friend will love the fresh air. The yard is a partially shaded space with grass.
About: I care for a Vizsla and a sweet senior pup at home, so I'm very familiar with different energy levels and needs. I truly enjoy walking dogs and welcoming them into our home. We’re located just steps from nature in the beautiful West Hills, which means your dog will have plenty of access to peaceful walks and scenic hikes.. I'm currently home full-time, which means your dog will get plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I'm flexible and can accommodate all types of services, providing a safe, loving environment with lots of personalized, one-on-one care. We have a fully fenced yard and two friendly resident dogs who love making new friends. I’m happy to follow any specific feeding, walking, or sleeping routines to help your pup feel right at home. Your dog will be in a safe, loving environment with plenty of companionship and care.
“Sadie was so helpful when I needed someone for a last-minute visit/walk for my pup Hazel. She was super flexible and communicative, and Hazel loved her immediately. Grateful for her help and attentiveness!”
About: I've always had a family dog of my own (both small and little dogs, both reactive dogs and non-reactive dogs), and I have dog sat, in their home, for others since 2018. I currently have an open schedule for caring for your furry child. I am able to do drop-ins and also house-sit with at least a week's notice. I am very good at truly listening to the needs of clients and customers. I know that it's really hard to find someone you trust to care for our pets, so I also like to meet the pet and their guardian before the scheduled housesitting.
“Chloe has been an absolutely fantastic cat sitter for Pumpkin! She took great care of him, ensuring he was well-fed and keeping his litter box clean. She went the extra mile to try to engage him with playtime, even though he can be a little shy. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals and their well-being. Knowing he was in such capable hands gave me complete peace of mind. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Chloe to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Words cannot express how grateful I am to have been lucky enough to have Langdon walk and care for my dog, Ori. She’s a senior Boston, and like many squishy faced pup parents, I have those constant worries - about her bug eyes getting poked, overheating in the summer, stubborn and diva-ish behavioral traits - if you know, then you just know. Langdon is a certified obedience instructor with his own business and a dedicated following. He even owns and cares for multiple brachiocephalic breeds. We also had the pleasure of meeting Langdon’s daughter, Lilla, at our initial meet and greet. Ori is typically hesitant around children but this bright young girl has the calm and nurturing demeanor of an old soul. She instantly put Ori at ease just as her father does all while she intently observed his subtle yet highly effective training methods. All positive reinforcement based too!! Without shame, I 100% consider myself an overprotective, crazy controlling, helicopter of a dog mom but for the first time in almost 9 years…*drumroll*…i felt less of that lingering anxiety while at work and in knowing someone else was in control of her safety. I can’t explain it, I just feel better, happier and more productive. It was immediately apparent that my dog was happier and more content when I got home late the first night too. We all long to see that tired, satisfied look on their face from a well balanced day. It has been such such a relief and I can already see a difference in Ori’s behavior after only a couple walks with him. She is more attentive and has a faster response time to my commands. These walks are wayyyy more than just walks and there’s not a number or star rating high enough for my experience with Langdon. Although, after all her socializing down Alberta St, Ori has become quite a material girl and can’t keep herself from window shopping and stopping by all the shops to say hello. Thank you so much for everything, Langdon! Excited to plan another walk soon :)”

Forest Park pet parents share their Rover experiences
So grateful to have found Elizabeth on Rover! She was incredibly attentive, understanding, and caring with my puppy ! and truly worked magic with her! My dog is usually very shy and scared around new people, but by the end of her stay with Elizabeth and her kids, she looked so happy and confident. I couldn't be more thankful! Elizabeth also sent me regular updates and lots of adorable photos, I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone loving and trustworthy to care for their pet! :)
Venus was great! She took such good care of our kitty and garden while we were away, and provided fun photos and videos. It was a relief knowing our kitty was getting the loves, food, medicine, and care he needed while we were away. Venus was also very responsive to communications. We'll be happy to have her back again.
Margot is responsible, kind and came to our house to learn about our pup before her visit. She sent us pictures and was communicative leading up and after her visit. So grateful to have formed a relationship with Margot and to know someone reliable to care for our pup 🫶
I’m so thankful for Caitlyn! Due to an accident I had a last minute request. I felt so much better knowing that she was going to be caring for my animals and it helped take some of the stress off of what I was dealing with. Caitlyn took great care of them and I hope to book with her again .
