“Ms. Shahrzad was fabulous with my two energetic and affectionate Ragdolls, who require a lot of attention. She kept me updated throughout, giving me peace of mind while I was away. I’ve already hired her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Tatum took care of our kitty in the chaos of the Palisades fire and I can’t thank her enough! Truly an angel!!!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10 years old. I’ve lived with my dad who has 4 dogs currently, and I was raised around his police dog that he had. I also took care of my Pomeranian at my mom’s house. My roommate in college also had two cats that I would take care of when he wasn’t home. I’ve been around animals my whole life and promise to make sure your pets are comfortable and feel safe. I’m currently a freelance music engineer, so I work mostly at night starting around 8pm, so the nights vary when I get home late or am just around. However my days are typically open and I have free time. I have a small yard in the back if your pet would like to get some quick fresh air, I am pretty active so walking once in the morning and once in the afternoon would be no issue at all. I also have a crate if you want them to be crated while I’m gone but the living room has been pet proofed and they are more then welcome to roam around and make themselves at home.
About: I’ve been in the presence of animals all my life! Specifically bigger dogs like huskies and golden doodles galore! I love animals and know how special they are to us and want to make sure they are well exercised, cared for, and loved! I’m confident your dog (and you) will like me because i’m kind, respectful, and honest! I promise i will love your dog as much as you do🤍 I just graduated from Pepperdine! I’m currently working full time in Malibu but normally have two weekdays off- however the specific days change week to week. I start work at 10 and off at 6:30 and can walk anytime before or after that! This allows for your dog to be cared for when it’s a cooler temperature outside making it more fun for them on walks! On my off days i’m free anytime! I have a fenced home and two dogs to keep your dog company! ( one husky and one golden doodle). I do have a pool in my back yard! Your dog can sleep with me and go on any of the furniture!
“My shy cat doesn’t like anybody but she came out for Kimberly! Highly recommend. I feel confident going out of town with her as my sitter and I appreciate the pictures and updates she sent.”
About: New to Rover? Use code: MOBINS37442 for $20 off your first booking! I have been surrounded by animals my entire life, from dogs and rabbits to other furry companions, and caring for them has always been second nature to me. Growing up in a home full of pets taught me not only how to love them deeply but also how to understand their unique personalities and needs. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience taking care of dogs and rabbits for friends, family, and others in my community. Whether it was daily walks, feedings, playtime, or simply providing companionship, I always made sure each pet felt safe, comfortable, and loved. Today, I am a proud pet parent to a sweet Shih Tzu puppy who brings so much joy to my life. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your pet when you are away. That is why I make it my top priority to ensure every animal I care for feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it is walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping your pet company, I will treat them like family because they are. I am patient, attentive, and always happy to follow your pet’s routine to a tee. I cannot wait to meet you and your furry friend. I’m currently on summer break from law school and available anytime to care for your pets! Once school starts, I’ll be available Tuesday through Sunday with flexible hours to fit your pet’s needs. Just let me know what works best, and I’ll be happy to accommodate! I live in a gated home and prioritize safety, creating a calm and secure environment for your pet. I take the time to understand each animal’s needs and build trust at their pace. Whether it’s providing outdoor playtime or quiet rest, your pet will feel at home here. I’m dedicated to ensuring their comfort and well-being while you’re away!

I work in Thousand Oaks, but live in Agoura Hills. My work schedule is extremely flexible, and can come home and stay as often as I please. Plenty of food, water, and exercise. They’re welcome to lounge on the couch, and go to the nearest park for fetch, or a drive over to Malibu if they prefer!
About: Hey! I’m Taylor — dog mom to a Great Dane, a bulldog mix, and a cat. I’ve spent years caring for animals of all sizes, personalities, and needs. Being around animals is truly my happy place, and I love making sure they feel safe & loved. I also volunteer at my local shelter and treat every pet like one of my own :) I am currently working full time Monday - Friday but available on weekends for sitting and walks.

About: I'm a sensitive, caring responsible individual who loves to play with dogs and with whom dogs love to play. I've worked at the Glendale, CA Humane Society Shelter walking dogs and really enjoyed the experience. I've owned dogs for a good part of my life. However, I recently had to put Taffy, my last dog, to sleep. She was 16 and not doing well. It was heart wrenching and I thought perhaps that rather getting another, I could give the love I have for dogs to others, without having the ultimate burden of ownership. I live in Agoura Hills, CA. There lots of room for dogs to walk and play, lots of trees and grass for dogs to sniff and explore. There are also lots of other dogs in the community and opportunities for dogs to socialize, if the owners and the dogs want. I have a fenced yard and I work from home. I have a flexible schedule. Consequently, I can adapt my schedule to your dog's schedule. I have a fenced yard and I have no other dogs. Even though the house is on two levels, it's easy for dogs to navigate.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets of my own and family friends’ since I was 7!

I’ll be a full time student in the fall at Cal Lutheran University! I’m available weekdays before 3pm and after 7pm, and all day most Saturday and Sundays. My schedule is pretty flexible, so feel free to reach out! In any home, I will always make sure all potential hazards are checked to keep your fur babies safe. Always making a clean and secure environment for every pet, and utilizing the messaging system to communicate any pet care needs with the owner. Above all, I’ll be transparent about every pet and situation, building trust with you and your furry friend :)

Yours will have the most wonderful single-pet staycation, be safe, sweetly cared for, played with, and walked. I love walks, rain or shine, but if your pup is not a fan or is a senior, we can Netflix & chill instead ;). I typically take one family’s pets at a time so they get my full attention and it’s more like home. I previously fostered over 30 dogs large & small for a SoCal rescue (not all at once ;). Many needed special or medical care. Currently no dogs of my own, but I did raise the sweetest girl for 16 years who was on the news for being the oldest of her breed. She was a soulful character.

I work from home with flexible hours, and can keep your fur friends comfy, healthy and happy! I’ll be sure to send you daily updates with adorable photos :).

But I love outdoor adventure, and hiking if your dog is up for that too. Your pet is welcome on my couch for extra snuggles but I adhere to the same house rules you’ve trained them to follow. If needed, I can provide an XL crate, doggie bed, bowls and leash. Please bring their harness and usual food so we keep their tummy happy. Anything else you think will make their stay is welcome.

“I highly recommend Mobina for pet sitting, especially for animals with specific needs, like my Lionhead rabbit, Coco. Coco is six years old and requires extra care, including regular grooming and a carefully managed diet. Mobina handles him with such care and attention, ensuring that he gets brushed regularly and that his dietary needs are met, bunnies are such delicate creatures, and Mobina does anything to keep him healthy and happy. Her dedication to providing the best care for pets is evident, and I always feel confident knowing she’s looking after Coco.

I highly recommend Taylor for anyone that is searching for a trustworthy and compassionate caregiver for their pet.”
Harlan S.
“I have known Harlan Schneider for many years. I can attest to his sterling character and his strong love of animals. His last pet was a female terrier mix, which had been adopted by his elderly mother from the local animal shelter. However, Harlan was her primary care-giver, even before his mother, whom he resided with, passed away. He treated Taffy more than just a pet; she was very much like his only child and his main companion. His devotion and understanding of her physical and emotional needs were admirable. I have no doubt that Harlan would be an excellent pet-sitter/dog-walker. He is an exceptionally kind and loving person, as well as a true animal-lover!”

We need someone to take care of our lab, and the minute Jill came to the house, she was prompt, courteous, friendly and prepared, and when she met our beloved dog Chance, he was instantly comfortable with her...

We will always call Jill, because she is always on time, and LOOVES dogs. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !”
