1. Carissa M.
“Carissa did an amazing job with our dog, Puna! She was extremely thorough, responsive, thoughtful, and dependable. We’re so grateful she took care of absence during our trip. Would definitely recommend her to others. Thank you!”
2. Julie V.
“Julie has been an amazing caretaker to our dog Pippin. He's our family's baby and it is very important that we feel comfortable with whoever is taking care of him. From the very beginning Julie showed how important it was that we felt comfortable with her. She spoke to us prior to his care and asked us detail questions about his daily routine, care and medical needs. During his stay at her place, she send us text messages and pictures. She was easy to get a hold of and would answer our texts in a timely manner. Pippin really enjoyed his stay at her place and was very comfortable and happy around her. We highly recommend Julie to be your pet's caretaker/walker.”
3. Katie W.
“We are so happy to have found Katie W! She walked our dogs every day for a week while we were out of town and was absolutely wonderful! She also pinch-hit and stopped by to feed them their dinner on an emergency basis. Our dogs can be a little nervous around new people but somehow they just sensed that Katie was family and took to her immediately. We couldn’t ask for a kinder, more thoughtful person to be with our pets!”

I have personal experience with her taking care of my two dogs a Belgian Malinois and a Australian Shepard and she does wonderful with them, she is great with keeping them entertained with walks and toys, as well she knows how to keep them safe on and off the leash. She is great at following any requests I may ask of her to make sure my pups get what they need. I would absolutely recommend and trust Deyja with my dogs.”

12. Fae A.
“They took care of my 11 year old senior dog last winter when we were in Tennessee for the holidays. She was walked, her food directions were followed and they stayed around at the house everyday so she wasn’t left alone during the day. My dog felt very safe and taken care of and anyone would be lucky to have them take care of their fur baby.”

About: !Priority Care ONLY! Welcome to a haven where your furry companions are not just guests but cherished members of the family. With a passion for pups and years of dedicated care, I’m here to ensure your beloved pets receive the utmost love, attention, and joy-filled experiences. As a seasoned dog nanny and fitness enthusiast, I thrive on adventures in the park, exhilarating games of catch, and invigorating runs alongside my canine friends. Whether it’s teaching tricks, basic dog training or simply reveling in their playful antics, dogs gravitate towards me, sensing the genuine affection and care I offer. With a heart for rescue, I’ve opened my doors to countless street dogs, providing them with temporary refuge until they find their forever homes. It’s a journey filled with attachment and bittersweet farewells, but knowing they leave for happier futures makes every moment worthwhile. Working from home grants me the privilege of ample time to devote to your pups’ needs, ensuring they feel cherished and content throughout their stay. My spacious living room and garden offer boundless opportunities for exploration and relaxation, while my commitment to flexible scheduling caters to your convenience. Moreover, I prioritize your furry friend’s health and well-being above all else. From regular exercise routines to nutritious meals and attentive care, I ensure they thrive physically and emotionally under my watchful eye. For added peace of mind, you’re welcome to request a meet and greet session. This initial interaction allows us to establish trust, address any concerns, and tailor the experience to your dog’s unique preferences and needs. Your dog’s happiness and safety are my top priorities, and I can’t wait to embark on this adventure with them by my side. I'm currently working from home so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 10am. I have a huge living room for them to roam, bedroom for the dogs to sleep at night and garden to keep your fur baby happy. All breeds are embraced in our pack; whether big or small, they’re all cherished members. We extend our welcome to any and all dogs who share our love for canine camaraderie. I have not deleted my dogs profile, unfortunately he passed away 6 years ago due to a heart murmur but is still on my profile. I currently don’t have any dogs of my own.

About: New to the app! I have been pet sitting several years for regular clients including 2 powerful giant huskies, a petite sweet chihuahua, and a slew of kitty cats. I know to allow pets their autonomy but also build good behavior with patience. I can administer oral and inhalant medication. Personally I have 3 happy and healthy pets- 🐶 a goofball mixed breed dog who thinks he’s a cat, 🐈 a fun and fabulous long haired big orange cat who I have to brush daily, and 🐈⬛ an asthmatic skittish tortie-tude little girl that needs everyone to be quiet and gentle around her. Their demeanor shows total trust and calm as my husband and I’ve always catered to their every need and treat them like true members of the family. I also regularly rescue, rehabilitate and rehome stray dogs and cats in the LA area. My work is primarily remote and can be done at self-assigned schedule so I have full flexibility for house sitting or drop ins. I have reliable transportation and the back of my car is outfitted with a hammock style partition to secure harnesses and carriers, so I can bring your pets to the park or appointments if necessary. I’m a 30 y/o professional in the entertainment industry and I’ve been pet sitting to supplement during this tumultuous time of hiatuses, layoffs and strikes, including house sitting for a few celebrities. In my regular job, I am responsible for the safety and well being of entire crews, locations and sensitive material so I can ensure your trust in my discretion and care for your home and pets. I have used rover personally for years as a client so I understand the need to feel secure about not only the most important creatures in your life, but also your personal property and privacy.

About: I have been surrounded by pets since I was a child and have loved them ever since. I also used to volunteer at a non-profit organization for a year, training and taking care of dogs, old and young. I am working part time and studying online so I have a lot of free time to take care of dogs at the moment! My hours vary each week but I will stay in contact and make sure I’m available when it’s necessary. I have a fenced yard and a crate if it’s ever requested. I do not own any dogs currently but I do have cats that are dog friendly but usually stay inside anyways.
17. Pearl S.
“Pearl was amazing! She dropped in before our first booking to meet me and my dog, Lola. Pearl fed and walked Lola and sent photos of our happy pooch! Thank you so much for taking great care of Lola. We had peace of mind while out for the night and came home to a happy pooch!!”
18. Katie Q.
“Katie was great with my chihuahua! He is often wary of strangers but she handled him so easily - I was amazed at her level of experience. Would easily recommend her!”
19. Jeanna A.
“Jeanna really listened to my guidelines on my special needs dog -- thank you for your patience!”
20. Jessica D.
About: i've had all sorts of pets growing up, and they were always MY pet because i was the one taking care of them. I now dog sit for my friend when she needs me to, and Ive dog sat for coworkers, i will bathe them if they get dirty playing outside. I live close to the beach so that may happen. I dont have many obligations, i could use a companion on my walks, since I am unable to own any pets of my own at this time due to rental guidelines. I dont have other obligations that require attention, as a previous pet owner i empathize with pet owners and their furry relatives. Taking care of them is always my tip priority.
