About: I love animals! Interacting with them feeds my soul. I think cats and dogs can sense how happy I am to be around them plus how much I love them, making it easy and fulfilling to form bonds. I’ve worked with shy cats and dogs too, and enjoy patiently and gently winning them over. My clients have been German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Huskies, a senior Beagle, Australian Cattle Dog and small to medium dogs. I am a lover of all breeds. I also have experience with house sitting kittens to senior cats. Volunteering at Kitten Rescue LA, I socialize with various breeds, ages and personalities. It’s also fun to meet pet parents and connect with the community. For all new clients, I prefer doing an initial meet and greet to discuss specific care details. Currently, I am going to school part-time. I would love the opportunity to take care of and spend quality time with your furry family members. I love giving attention to and caring for dogs and cats as if they were my own. Will accommodate routines you have in place and give you daily updates with photos via the Rover app or text.
“I was so impressed with Michelle and Liz. They played with my (very active) cat and I was never worrried for a moment. I felt like my cat was being taken care of by a friend. This was the first time I left my cat alone with ANYONE and I was very nervous about how she would do but I got pictures of her cuddling and playing with Michelle and Liz and I felt so relieved every day. I would definitely use them again. They were a godsend.”
“Ru is so kind and loving with our cats, they immediately accepted her into their tribe 😻. Her communication is great, and she was very accommodative when my schedule changed at the last minute. Ru is our “go to” cat sitter. Thanks!!!”
About: I'm a puppy raiser for a service dog agency as well as help keep my daughter's service dog in working condition. Bully breeds to mastiffs to Chihuahuas, I've worked with them all. I'm currently raising my second pup for a service dog agency. I have a soft place in my heart for senior dogs. I'm a special education teacher by trade and walking dogs afternoons/evenings/weekends is the perfect way for me to relax . Pets are my happy place. Pets are our family and should be treated as such, whether it's our energetic cousin or our elderly loved one. They all deserve our love.
“Tomoko is a very qualified and compassionate caregiver. She and my dog, Daisy hit it off right away and now Daisy has a new best friend. Tomoko completed all of the tasks requested with love and joy. I will definitely be calling on her again. I trust her very much and I know my little Daisy does too. I find that to be so valuable, especially in today’s day and age. If I had more room I could give her even greater accolades. But I hope this review expresses my deep sense of peace, leaving Daisy with her and pleasure to utilize her services.”
About: I have hands on experience raising two energetic and loyal German Shepherds. I offer a balanced approach to care, with focus on creating an stress-free , fun and safe environment. I’m currently working in La Crescenta from Monday- Friday 7:30am-4:00pm so I have all afternoons free to walk or drop in on your pets while you’re away. I can also do a quick drop in from 11:30am- 12:30pm At the moment I can not care for pets in my home but in a clients home I would get clear instructions from the client for house rules, feedings, medications, etc. Get to know the home and routines of the pets and have emergency contacts to call.
“Karen was great with my senior boy cat Batman. She sent pictures and updates everyday and I felt at peace knowing that he was doing fine. Karen will be my go-to person if I need a pet sitter for my next trip.”
“Nathan and Lisa did an excellent job with the cats and went above and beyond helping us with a potential water leak while we were away. We would definitely recommend them!”
About: I have loved dogs and cats my entire life. I grew up with two weimaraners and now have a doberman. I have never had a cat but I have done cat sitting, as well as dog sitting. I'm out of college for the summer, so I have lots of free time to spend with pets. I can come by frequently for pet care activities, as well as stay in-home. I will play with your pet, snuggle with them, and do any other activities they find enriching!! I truly love animals with all my heart and care that they are safe and happy!!
About: My dog friendly home is located in North Glendale/La Crescenta/La Canada area. I am passionate about caring for animals and provide a safe, fun loving environment, tailored to you and your pets needs. My home and yard are extremely secure, and pets are welcome inside and out. I have a large play area with a doggie door that can be closed off if necessary. Dogs are walked twice daily and I am trusted by animals and their owners alike. I provide one on one attention and in most cases, allow one family at a time. You and your pet are welcome to come visit anytime before you make a decision. Currently, I am a pet sitter/dog walker,home full time, and have a small "doggie day care" service also. I am available to care for your pets in the comfort of their own home and can visit up to 4 times per day. Safe pick up and delivery of your pet is provided upon request:)
“Brittany did a great job taking care of our two cats when we were gone for a week. She stopped by every day at the same time and sent updates and photos. She was very amenable to taking in the mail and putting our trash cans back after trash day, which I appreciated. Would definitely request her again.”
“I can't recommend Julie enough! She took such wonderful care of my pets while I was away. From the moment I spoke with her, I could tell she was passionate about animals and genuinely cared for their well-being. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which made me feel so at ease. I have 2 senior dogs and 2 bengal cats and she knew how to care for each one of them. My pets were happy and well-cared for. If you're looking for someone reliable, attentive, and loving to care for your furry friends.”
About: I've had pets all my life. I've had dogs, cats, fish, and turtles. I've also cared for hamsters, rabbits, and guinea pigs before. I've walked, fed, bathed, house sat, and played with pets belonging to family and friends. Having had my own pets throughout my life, I know how precious furry friends are. I will tend to your pet with utmost care! I'm currently working on my master's so my schedule is inconsistent. However, if you need me to care for your pet at a specific time, please contact me and we can try to work something out! How I care for your pets will largely depend on your preferences as the owner. I want to get to know your pet's personality, preferences, and energy leveI. I would like a general schedule of feeding and bathroom times and instructions. In your home, I can play with your pet, sit next to them, cuddle with them, or go out for brief walks.
About: Hi! I'm Michelle, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, sniffing every tree on the block, or simply relaxing with company, my goal is for them to feel safe, happy, and excited every time we're together. I also believe pet parents deserve peace of mind, so I always strive to communicate clearly and keep owners updated while their pets are in my care. Experience with Dogs: I have spent the last six years walking dogs several days a week, working with dogs of all different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I've become especially comfortable helping anxious or fearful dogs build confidence while keeping safety my top priority. I'm especially attentive to leash safety, reading body language, and adjusting each walk to the dog's comfort level to ensure they feel ready to explore outdoors. Senior Dog Care: I also have several years of experience caring for senior dogs with mobility issues, hearing and vision loss, allergies, and medication needs. This taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of adapting care to each dog's individual needs. Senior pets often communicate through subtle changes in behavior, and I pride myself on noticing shifts in their temperament, mobility, appetite, energy levels, comfort, or daily routines so I can respond with calm and appropriate care. Training & Enrichment: I enjoy keeping pets mentally engaged through positive reinforcement, interactive play, and enrichment activities that match their personality and energy level. Whether we're practicing simple cues, playing a favorite game, exploring something new, or simply enjoying quality one-on-one time, I love creating positive experiences that help pets feel happy, engaged, and confident. Every pet has their own personality, quirks, and routines, and getting to know those little things is honestly one of my favorite parts of this work. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and excited to see me each time we meet. My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. While Fridays and Saturdays may fill up more quickly due to existing commitments, I always do my best to accommodate new requests whenever possible. If you're unsure about availability, feel free to reach out—I’m happy to see what I can do! Safety is always my highest priority, whether I'm caring for pets in your home or out on a walk. I make a point to stay aware of our surroundings, watching for potential hazards, changes in behavior, and anything that may cause a pet stress or discomfort. I pay close attention to body language and know that even subtle changes in posture, movement, appetite, energy, or demeanor can be important. I also understand that every pet has different routines, boundaries, and comfort levels. My goal is to respect those routines while creating an environment where they feel safe, relaxed, and cared for. I believe clear communication with pet parents is just as important, so I always keep owners updated and will never hesitate to reach out if something seems out of the ordinary. At the end of every visit, my hope is that your pet feels happier, more comfortable, and excited for the next time we spend together.
About: I've had dogs my whole life and have been dog sitting/walking since I was young. I love getting to know new dogs and look forward to making sure your dog is in great care, so you can be away worry free! I maintain a flexible work schedule as I work from home and make my own hours - I am available for last minute bookings and walks. Safety and communication are my number one priority. I prioritize following any house specific rules and special needs for your pets or household. Plus as a photographer, I love sending great photos of your pets to you while you're gone!
About: We are not ready to own a pet full time just yet but I would love to help other owners with their pets. I do have children my youngest being 6 so they do have to be children friendly but I also have a safe space your pet can be separate from them when they want or need to be. I grew up with all different types of animals my whole life as well as worked taking care of, full time, a rescue that consisted of 16 cats, 5 dogs and 5 horses. So I am very familiar with animals and their needs. This is the first time I have not had a pet in my life which is why I decided to join this app. Hope to see you and your pets soon!! I am a licensed real estate agent and mother to three beautiful children. I am available at various times to watch and care for your pets. I love to be outdoors and going for walks. I live in an apartment complex, in the building that sits in the back. I have open space and an outdoors community area where your pet can go for a walk or use the bathroom. I also am comfortable working in others homes with respect to their belongings and personal preferences.
About: ~ I consider myself a compassionate caretaker in as much as I do. ~ * Although I have only had two dogs of my own: a Spaniel-mix (rescue) & Terrier-mix (from a litter) I took upon a role of part-time caretaker, by helping to feed, walk, and bathe our dogs. I enjoyed using a k9sportsack to carry our smaller pup on extended hikes when terrain was tough. I hope that your pet can enjoy their time with my family and myself - as I believe we are keen to sense a pet's basic needs. Personally, I know of fun &/or calm places to take pets on brief outings outdoors, including trails &/or parks. I also take time to clean up along the way, or afterwards. Please feel free to browse my Facebook (Max Allan Mosesman) or Instagram profile (maxmosesman) where I post my most frequented routes, travels, & hobbies. If your pet does end up booking a stay with us (please schedule a Meet & Greet beforehand in order to meet us and our environment so that we can best prepare for your pet's booking as per their individual needs & preferences). Our home is small to medium sized, and good for up to 1-2 pets maximum (if they are already house trained), to take naps within, and/or sleep overnight. Our Backyard, half-grass/half-patio is also on the small to medium scale, with fencing on all three sides. The outdoor yard has side access (to a Garage) with two gates (one is removeable) along the way. Both front & back yards contain flowers, herbs, and fruit-bearing trees that you or your pet may find pleasant to be around. Currently, we are only accepting small to medium sized dogs that are already well-trained & socialized. If this description matches what you are looking for - then we hope to help you and your pet out soon enough! I currently work/volunteer part-time - which gives me about every other morning to take your dog outside on a specific hike (if deemed suitable & appropriate), as well as check in on them throughout the day for basic feeding and breaks in the backyard. Currently we have five members to our household, and each person does a part to help out with boarding pets, which includes some combination of feeding, walking, playing, bathing, and 'light' grooming. We are open to any & all suggestions that specifically pertain to your pet and will to our best to make adjustments accordingly.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - La Crescenta
I was so impressed with Michelle and Liz. They played with my (very active) cat and I was never worrried for a moment. I felt like my cat was being taken care of by a friend. This was the first time I left my cat alone with ANYONE and I was very nervous about how she would do but I got pictures of her cuddling and playing with Michelle and Liz and I felt so relieved every day. I would definitely use them again. They were a godsend.
Barbara is the best sitter! She takes care of my cat Lancelot every time we travel. She gives him a lot of love and affection, and will go far and beyond to take care of unexpected things that happen when you travel (like plumbing issues). Thank you, Barbara!
Tomoko was a great pet sitter for my senior cat. She is very kind, generous, and accommodating, and my cat was genuinely cared for while i was away. She sent very detailed updates and took great pictures. I felt so safe that my cat was in her capable hands and I will gladly book her services again next time.
Justine was a wonderful pet sitter! Our cats are anxious, and one of them can be very skittish with new people. She clearly understands how to manage cats and made our cats feel at ease. She sent plenty of pics and gave them lots of care and snuggles. This was our first time using a pet sitter, and we really felt at ease knowing they were in her care. We will definitely try to book her again in the future. Highly recommend!
What a thoughtful and responsible caretaker! Larissa kindly fed and played with my 3 cats, including a pretty crazy panther-kitten; I felt like they were in great hands, she followed my instructions to a tee, and even the shy cat came out to play with her. Hope to be able to book her services for my future trips away!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in La Crescenta. On Rover:

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
