About: I am in love with all dogs. I grew up with two boxers, and a rescue standard poodle. I have years of experience dog sitting for families, as well as taking care of my own dogs growing up. I've mainly done overnight dog sitting, dog walking, and general pet check ups. I'm reliable, outgoing, and passionate about animals. I will do my best to make sure they are comfortable and get all the love and care they need. I'm currrently self-employed and work part time on my own vintage rug business. Since I create my own schedule, I have flexible availability based on your pets needs. I make sure my home is pet friendly, and all my client's pets are comfortable. There will be fresh water at all times, and pet food refilled at the proper feeding times. My neighborhood is very walkable for dogs, and I will take them out as needed!
“Isabel did a great job caring for our two dogs. She was communicative and flexible. Our dogs quickly got along with her and trusted her. Looking forward to enlisting her services again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed their pets, and drop-ins are where I really shine. I show up, and send updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. I’m currently working part-time on larger projects, so the flexibility fits perfectly around drop-in visits. I can build your pet’s visits into my day without a rigid 9-to-5 schedule, and I’m happy to adjust timing to match their routine. For drop-ins, I do a full walkthrough of your home routine first so nothing feels unfamiliar to your pet. I follow your feeding, medication, and play instructions exactly as given, and I always double-check doors and gates are secure before I leave. Your pet’s comfort and safety in their own space is my top priority.
“Sarah did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town. She was very responsive in her communication and sent great pictures of our cats so we knew they were well cared for.”
About: Hello, my name is Charlie! I have been a dog owner for 13+ years and recently said goodbye to my best friend. I have missed having a dog around and started pet sitting for friends and family and absolutely loved it. I have a house in Glendale with a fenced in backyard in a very safe neighborhood. So whether it's a day time visit or a fortnight stay, I have exactly what you need. My top priority is SAFETY and I will watch your dog like a hawk while they are with me. I know the hardest part of travel is leaving your pet with a stranger so I strive to make both pets and owners feel comfortable. I am a part time actor and have a very open schedule so your pet will never be alone for long periods of time. I love to cuddle on the couch, take walks around the neighborhood or play in the yard. Please let me know if you have any questions for concerns, thanks! I am a part time actor so I have a lot of free time waiting around for auditions haha! I typically spend some time at the gym but otherwise I am home all day and available for your pets! I have a fenced-in backyard in a very safe, walkable, neighborhood. My top priority is safety and I promise to keep a close eye on your dog especially when outdoors. I have no other pets in the home so they will get all my focus and attention and I do not invite others over while your pets are here, so there will absolutely be no strangers around them. Happy to accommodate any special requests (medications, vet visits, feeding requirements, necessary lullabies lol)
“Fiona was great with our 13 year old cat who’s very cautious with strangers. She has calm and affectionate demeanor which any animal/human would love to be around.”
“Tamar is a special treat for your fur baby! Dudley is my 16-year nine month old senior, and she gave him the best care while I was on my 4 day get-away. She went above and beyond my expectations. I hesitate to say Tamar definitely will be my back-up for Dudley, because she may be overbooked!! 😃 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
About: I've taken care of neighbors' pets since I was a kid, and was always asked back! Growing up, my family was graced with Hannah, a lurcher greyhound rescue. I've also cared for my sister's turtle Monkey while she was living with me, and love visiting the pets of my friends and relatives. (Shout-out to Monkey, Sophie, Abby, Hari, Kiwi, and Starbuck!) I recently finished immunotherapy and am no longer allergic to cats! I'm happy to announce I can now accept cat bookings. I'm working part-time with a theater company, and my schedule with them is very flexible! I can easily build my schedule around the needs of you and your pets. A pet's safety and well-being are my primary concerns. I want to make sure they're eating healthy, getting plenty of exercise and stimulation, and are happy whenever I'm around. I keep a pet's individual behavioral patterns in mind while outside on walks, and do everything I can to make sure there are no incidents between pets and other people. I am attentive to any irregularities in appearance or behavior that may indicate an issue, and am quick to alert the owner or reach out to a vet.
About: Referral code for first time users: https://www.rover.com/sit/geovai53604 I’ve raised two puppies—a Shar Pei and a Chihuahua—so I understand firsthand that every dog has their own personality, temperament, and unique needs. Caring for dogs with such different dispositions has taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, and following care instructions closely. Whether your pup needs extra playtime, a gentle approach, or a very specific routine, I’m committed to providing personalized care that helps them feel safe and comfortable. I treat every dog as if they were my own—with love, patience, and respect. I work remotely so I am available for most of the day and night. I am very flexible and will make sure your pup gets what they need while you are away. I care for every pet based on their individual routine and comfort level, whether they’re in my home or their own. In a client’s home, I focus on keeping their normal schedule as consistent as possible: feeding times, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions, so they feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also make sure they get plenty of attention, affection, and patience, especially if they need time to warm up.
“Gina was fabulous! We are new in town and it is always a bit nerve-wracking to find someone to check on our boys. Gina was kind, caring, gave great updates daily on how much time she spent with the boys, their moods and activities. I am very thankful that we found Gina, and the boys are thrilled as well!”
“Cloe is doing a great job. Our puppy is well taken care of. She is always on time, never leaves a mess, accommodating and trust worthy. We were so lucky to find her!”
About: Trust your beloved pets to a mature, responsible adult. I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. We can board up to two dogs at one time, but they must be from the same family home. I am a successful small business owner and I work out of my home. I live within convenient probity proximity to downtown Glendale and the 134 freeway. Each visiting dog may arrive with a bed, blanket, toys or anything else you think necessary for them to enjoy a sense of stability and security. If requested, we're happy to send updates, pictures and videos to assure you that all is well with your pet. Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.
About: I’ve owned dogs my whole life and have volunteered at humane societies for a few years mainly as a dog kennel ambassador. I also have experience with bigger dogs, puppies, and senior dogs! In fact I have had a yorkie since he was a pup and a childhood dog of 15 years! I have taken care of bigger breeds such as husky/wolf mixes and very small dogs such as chihuahuas. Not only that I also have a cat! Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I am a college student and have most days free expect for Tuesday and Thursdays after 12pm. Any other day I’m available so don’t be afraid to book! I only do drop-ins and walks but when I am in someone else’s home I make it a priority to be respectful of your space and make sure nothing is moved around or messed around with.
“Great to work with Alex. Sent informative daily updates and double checked with us when he had questions. Followed our asks very closely and our kitties were healthy and happy when we returned. Thank you!”
About: My name is Nubia and I have loved and owned dogs pretty much my whole life. I love taking dogs out to explore and getting to know them. Who’s day doesn’t get better when seeing a dog. I’ve also been doing Wag for about 6-7 months now and it’s honestly the best thing I’ve ever done. There’s been walks where I have had to walk the smallest dog and then there has been times where it’s the biggest dog. I do take treats on my walks for those that need it for motivation, to sit and stay or basic commands during the walk. I have been getting compliments about my long distances so you won’t have to worry about your dog not getting tired. 😌
“Erica was awesome at taking care of our cat. She was very punctual for our meet up and sent fantastic daily updates through the app. We look forward to using Erica again, next time we need a sitter.”

So kind and lovely and understanding! My 10 year old cat is a Spicy Orange who can be very averse to strangers, and prior to moving to LA he has always stayed at my mom's house, so this was a huge trial. Emiko came over for a meet-n-greet before my trip and really understood and respected his orange cat boundaries. While away, Emiko was super communicative and even cleaned up some yucky messes my boy left. When I came home, my place was nice and clean and my boy seemed very calm and happy!
Yvette did such a great job taking care of my cat Ember! She was very communicative and even let me know if the apartment was getting too hot, etc. I have peace of mind when traveling knowing she’s in good hands, I would definitely book again in the future
Christy has been awesome taking care of Roadie! She's on-time, communicates with multiple photos and messages about how he's doing, and is quick to respond if we have any questions. She also seems to have a great rapport with him and Roadie warmed up to her right away!

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins.

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
