“Sasha was great with the kitties! She was very responsive and took time to cater to each cat as instructed. They loved her and I would most definitely book again”

“Finding a trustworthy sitter can be stressful, but Monica made it easy. She was always on time for visits and kept me updated throughout. Her responsiveness really set my mind at ease. I'll definitely be booking her again for my next trip!”

“Yana was so friendly and caring! My cat liked her right away from the first meeting. She was very responsible and made sure everything my cat needed was done. I also loved the cute videos she sent, they made me feel relaxed while I was away. Highly recommended!”


“I cannot speak moren highly of Shanelle and Gaelen. Absolutely top notch folks. They immediately got in synch with Edna. We had an initial visit and they were clearly open to learning and adapting to Edna's environment and home. Edna is lovable but rambunctious at first but that did not jolt or seem to effect S and G. They kept me fully abreast of everything about Edna during my vacation, from her diet, to exercise to her mood. You cannot go wrong with Shanelle and Gaelen! Highly highly recommend!”

“Ainsley was so great with my kitties! She was able to successfully inject insulin into my cat with no issues (first Rover sitter to do it!). Both cats were happy to see her which means they felt comfortable after only one meeting. Means Ainsley has the good animal vibes.”

“Melissa was awesome! She took care of our three babies for a few days and they seemed really happy when we got home. She was also really sweet and helpful with everything. Would definitely book with her again.”

About: My name's Kat and I absolutely love dogs! I've been taking care of them for over 20 years. I also volunteer at the local animal shelters as a dog walker so am extremely comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My current fur babies are a 16 year old Morkie (Maltese-Yorkie) named Sophie and a 6 year old poodle-bichon mix named Wally. We are a package deal. :) We live in a small house with beautiful fenced-in backyard in mid-city. Together, Sophie, Wally and I will make sure your pup has an amazing time during their stay! We look forward to meeting you! I work normal hours running a small business from home so am able to give lots of attention to your pup! We typically take 2 shorter walks a day, generally around 15-20 minutes each. I also take a longer walk (about an hour) around lunch time and will bring along any higher-energy dogs I’m watching who need more exercise. Playtime happens whenever your dog wants! Wally loves playing with his toys and other dogs, so they will have a playmate if they come over. The house is on the corner lot and has a fenced-in backyard that I let the pups out in every couple hours. I will always greet you first with Sophie and Wally outside to ensure the pups will be just fine, but Sophie and Wally are sweet and used to having friends around so that hasn’t been an issue in the past. Inside we have hardwood floors. The space is a decent size with 2 bedrooms and a kitchen area, so large enough to separate the dogs if needed. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. The pups have full roam of the house. They are both super chill. Sophie mainly cuddles up in her bed under my desk as I work or chooses to hide and sleep under my bed. Wally hangs out in the AC in the living room and watches out the front window - he’s the “neighborhood watch.”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have had a family dog for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a close-knit community, I started helping neighbors with pet sitting and house sitting around age 10 and have loved it ever since. I'm a huge dog lover and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that means going on walks, playing, giving them attention, or simply keeping them company while you're away. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog with the same care, patience, and affection that I would my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I'm currently interning only Monday through Thursdays, so looking to be able to help on Fridays & the weekends, as well as all weekday afternoons. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. During walks and drop-in visits, I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and needs, so I take the time to get to know them and follow any instructions provided by their owner. Whether your dog needs a long walk, a potty break, some playtime, or simply companionship while you're away, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're gone.
“Anna was wonderful and extremely communicative taking care of our two cats while we were away. She provided so much piece of mind. Would absolutely recommend.”

“Ashley is always super communicative, attentive, and gentle with my senior kitty. I know that she is extra careful to be sure that Pepper gets all her medications and pays close attention to her eating and litter box habits to monitor her health and well-being. I feel so much more comfortable traveling knowing that Pepper is in her care. Thank you, Ashley, for taking such good care of my sweet Pepper!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, starting with my own rescue pup since I was in fifth grade. I personally trained her and have supported her through every stage of life from energetic puppy to loving senior dog. Caring for her for almost 15 years taught me patience, empathy, and adaptability along the way. I’ve also fostered (almost failed) and dog-sat for friends and families, giving me experience with a variety of breeds, temperament, & care needs. I currently WFH on Mondays and Fridays, and generally stay home during the weekends. I am pretty active and could take dogs on long walks, but I’m also a homebody and could just chill. I have a small fenced front yard and a larger backyard where it’s easy to take frequent potty breaks and where dogs can feel free to play.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and pets for years and understand how important trust, safety, and consistency are. I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. I provide attentive care including walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, medication support if needed, and regular photo updates so owners can have peace of mind while away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I maintain a flexible schedule for walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, and quality one-on-one attention. I can often accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends depending on availability. Safety & trust are my top priorities. My goal is to always make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I respect each client’s home, keep a calm environment, follow instructions carefully, and treat every pet with patience, attention, and care like they’re family.
About: hi! kristina here :) had a dog when i was younger and i’ve watched dogs for friends and family over the years. can’t commit to having a dog right now but i love spending time with them. i will make sure to support you with whatever your dog needs. my schedule is flexible and i spend a lot of time at home so i am able to provide my full attention, especially to pets who require it. my personality is calm and gentle, and my home is clean and quiet. i live in a residential neighborhood—good and safe area for walks with other dogs around.
“We have a fearful senior rescue dog with a complicated history, and Liz has been great about doing an initial meet-and-great and then an extended drop-in to spend time with our dog alone. She very much understands how to interact with a fearful dog who needs time to feel trusting. Her experience as the guardian of a rescue dog herself definitely comes into play. She was punctual, cheerful, and generous-minded, and we really appreciate her willingness to work with Penny! We will definitely use her again.”


About: Hello! I recently graduated from USC, but my deep love for animals comes from my roots back in North Carolina. I grew up surrounded by our family's two dogs and two cats (Snickerdoodle, Prince Louis, Georgia, and Loki), spent countless hours on farms, and even rode horses professionally for a couple of years! Working with horses taught me patience, adaptability, and how to maintain a calm, grounded energy, skills that translate perfectly to pet care, whether I'm comforting a shy cat or handling a strong, energetic dog (I also recently helped rescue a German Shepherd!). What truly sets me apart as a sitter right now is the undivided attention I can offer. Because I don't currently have any pets of my own here in Los Angeles, my space is a quiet, stress-free haven where your furry best friend gets to be the absolute center of attention. I have hands-on experience with dog walking, day-sitting, and extended care, including recently boarding a friend’s dog for two weeks while at school. Whether your pet needs a cozy couch to snuggle on, a patient friend to help them feel safe, or a secure ride in my Crosstrek for a local adventure, I promise to love and care for them exactly like they are my own family! As a recent graduate enjoying my last open summer, I currently have a tremendous amount of free time! Because I am primarily taking on flexible, gig-based work right now, my schedule is incredibly adaptable to whatever your pet needs. I also have my own car, which makes incorporating pet care into my routine incredibly seamless. As I continue exploring and making Los Angeles my permanent home, I absolutely love loading up my Crosstrek and taking pets on safe, local adventures. Whether your dog is the type who loves discovering new parks and trails with an eager co-pilot, or your pet just needs a reliable sitter with transportation for midday drop-ins and cuddles, I can easily build my day around them. Pet care isn't something I have to squeeze into a busy workday, right now, it gets my full attention! Whether I am hosting your best friend or staying at your place, my absolute priority is maintaining your pet's normal routine so they feel safe, secure, and loved. In my home: Because my space is currently pet-free, your dog or cat will enjoy a calm, quiet environment where they get to be the absolute center of attention. I keep a tidy, hazard-free apartment with plenty of comfortable spots for cozy naps. With my highly flexible summer schedule, they won’t be left alone for long stretches. Depending on their energy levels, we can spend the day relaxing inside, or I can safely load them up in my Crosstrek for a trip to a local park if they love car rides and exploring! In your home: I treat my clients' spaces with the utmost respect and pride myself on leaving your home exactly as I found it. I know that having a new person in the house can be an adjustment for some animals, so I lean on my equestrian background to bring a quiet, grounded energy that helps them relax on their own terms. I am meticulous about following your specific instructions for feeding, medications, and house boundaries. No matter where I am caring for your pet, I will make sure they get plenty of affection, dedicated playtime, and consistent photo updates so you have total peace of mind while you are away.
“We are so grateful to Lauren for checking in on our boys on such short notice, and for all the cute pictures she sent!! She even brought along extra toys and treats, which is just so appreciated — thank you again, Lauren!!”

Melissa was so great with our two orange cats while we were on vacation! She was super communicative, and our brief video chat before her visit put my mind at ease. She was so sweet with our kitties and even spent time playing with them and giving them pets, which they loved. I will definitely book Melissa again next time we need a kitty sitter!

Emma was so caring, friendly, and attentive! Her love and care for animals is immediately evident, which made me feel so much more at ease with being away from my cats. And I really appreciated her communication, updates, photos, and general professionalism! I honestly couldn't recommend her enough, and will be contacting her again whenever I need a sitter.

Adam has been an absolute gem for my Bernese Mountain Dog Louie, who can be a handful. Adam has handled him with such care and calm. He’s incredibly dependable, always available when we need him, and communicates reliably throughout. It’s such a relief to have someone we can genuinely trust with Louie. Highly recommend Adam to any dog owner.

It was so great meeting Shontel. She asked all the right questions that showed me she really cared about getting to know if my puppy. Her gentle and calm demeanor was much appreciated. She understood exactly when to pull back when my Moon was becoming overwhelmed. Listened to learn more about him and cared to know if she’d be best for him. We absolutely plan on booking her again!

Alessandra is an excellent sitter! She has great communication, and I always felt that my baby was in caring and professional hands. I truly appreciated her last-minute availability and flexibility. I would absolutely love to work with her again and highly recommend her to others!

Elizabeth was great with our cats! We have one cat who is super shy and he warmed up to her pretty immediately which is always a great sign. She was super communicative and sent plenty of pictures and updates. Would recommend her to others needing care for their fur babies!

This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience! She truly exceeded all of my expectations. She was communicative, kind, and always on time, everything you could hope for in a sitter. As a first time cat mom leaving my cat, I was a little nervous, but she made me feel completely at ease. Her updates were so thorough, and she sent lots of pictures, which was incredibly comforting while I was away. I had zero stress and full trust in her the entire time. I will absolutely be booking her every time I go out of town. She’s the best, 10/10 recommend!
