“Hannah has been our dog walker and sitter for months now and she’s our favorite! She takes such care of our babies and I trust her so much. She’s always there for us when we need and recommend her 1000 percent!!!!”

About: I have lots of experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and following specific care instructions. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and on their regular routine. As an active and reliable person, I enjoy giving dogs plenty of exercise, attention, and affection while their owners are away. I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to pop in for a home visit and take your of your furry friends! Safety and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets. I make sure pets have fresh water, follow feeding schedules, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and carefully follow any instructions provided by the owner. In clients’ homes, I treat their space with respect, keep things clean and organized, and provide regular updates so owners can feel confident their pets are receiving the best care possible.
“Chieh was responsive, responsible, and very accommodating. She followed my instructions/requests perfectly and provided great updates and photos. Highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”

“Thanks Meng for taking a good care of my cat while I was away for a vacation. I know my cat can be difficult to strangers sometimes but Meng took care of my cat well and she also tried to interact with him as much as possible. All litter boxes were clean and water fountain was refilled with fresh water. Very appreciated!”

About: over the past couple of years i’ve been caring for dogs through house sitting and daily routines, including through trusted housesitters. i tend to pick up quickly on what each dog needs to feel comfortable and settled. i’m very attentive and don’t rush through walks. i’ve also handled more involved feeding routines — including preparing fresh meals — so i’m detail-oriented and reliable when it comes to following specific instructions. i’m most comfortable with dogs who have a basic level of leash training and respond well to guidance, and i bring a calm, steady presence to every walk. my schedule is very flexible; i’m available for walks throughout the day or at night. happy to adapt to your routine to keep things consistent. when caring for dogs on walks, i prioritize clear communication and pay close attention to surroundings — including other dogs, traffic, and anything that could cause stress or distraction. i follow any instructions closely and i’d absolutely be respectful of your space and make sure your dog is returned safely and settled after each walk.
“Roxane was awesome! Very communicative and followed complex feeding/care instructions super well. Grateful to have someone so kind to look after Scout while I’m gone. Definitely will be booking with Roxane again :)”

About: I have been surrounded by animals since childhood. I grew up in Colombia helping my grandmother on her farm, where I cared for dogs, cats, chickens, horses, pigs, and cows. That experience taught me respect, patience, and love for animals of all kinds. My strongest experience is with dogs. I have been caring for my own Pomeranian for over 11 years, and for the past 2 years I have also provided paid pet care for my friend’s dogs. I have experience with puppies as young as 5 months old, as well as senior dogs. One of the most meaningful experiences in my life was caring for my friend’s 13-year-old dog, Layla, during her final days while she was battling liver cancer. Being able to support her with love, comfort, and close attention reinforced my commitment to compassionate pet care. I currently work as a bookkeeper, mostly from home, which allows me to organize my schedule flexibly. This makes it easy for me to provide attentive pet sitting, boarding, and companionship during the day. I generally prefer pet sitting in the owner’s home, but I am also open to short stays in my home, such as weekends, depending on the situation. Longer stays can be discussed if needed. I believe pets are family, and I treat them with the same love and respect I give my own dog. I enjoy talking to dogs, keeping them company, and making sure they feel safe and emotionally comfortable, especially in new environments. I carefully follow all instructions provided by the owner, including feeding routines, medication, walking schedules, and special needs. Regarding food, I prefer to feed pets only the food provided by the owner. If authorized, I am happy to prepare or purchase food following the owner’s exact instructions. I pay close attention to each dog’s condition, preferences, and sensitivities. Dogs in my care are never left unattended. Owners are welcome to bring their dog’s favorite toys, bed, or blanket to help them feel at home. With owner approval, I also enjoy taking dogs to nearby parks so they can enjoy fresh air and gentle exercise.
About: I’m a dog lover with years of experience. I’ve had my own dogs from 2005-2024, but most recently have been fostering for a local rescue. I’ve fostered with Westside German Shepherd Rescue and A Purposeful Rescue, and have experience with senior dogs, medical needs, reactive dogs, all sizes (from toy to giant), and run a structured, tight ship! I grew up with Boxers, my own dogs were terriers and a German Shepherd, and most recently I fostered a sweet Belgian Malinois. There are no full-time pets in my home, but since I foster, there may be overlap on a case by case basis. I currently work from home M, W, Th, F, and am home on weekends. I live in an apartment, so potty breaks are done via neighborhood walks. Safety is paramount with me. My building’s courtyard is fenced, and I utilize crate training and separate rooms when multiple dogs are in my care. I carry pepper spray on walks, am hyper vigilant of my surroundings, and as a “Type A” person :D follow owner instructions to the letter.
About: hi, I’m Cortney! I've loved and cared for animals my whole life — hamsters, bunnies, dogs — and I've always been the go-to person for friends, family, and neighbors when they need someone trustworthy to watch their pets. My biggest teacher was my dog Carter, a Formosan I raised from 8 weeks old and had the privilege of loving for 11 wonderful years. She was very energetic, and living with her every day for over a decade taught me a lot about walking, training, and understanding midsize dogs with real intensity and drive. Carter passed recently, and caring for other dogs now feels like the most natural way to keep giving the love and attention she taught me how to give. Through her, I discovered a real knack for working with anxious, shy, and high-energy dogs. I don't believe in one-size-fits-all care — I take the time to get to know each dog's temperament, quirks, and needs, because just like people, every dog is different. Some want a calm, steady presence. Some want to run until they're happily exhausted. I meet them where they are. I'm fully remote, so your dog will have consistent company throughout the day, and I'm just up the street from the dog park — walks and outdoor time are a given, not an afterthought. If your pup needs someone patient, experienced, and genuinely attentive, I'd love to meet them. I am self-employed and make my own schedule so I am available for reoccurring walks and/or one off drop in’s as needed. I’d love to incorporate your pets needs into my weekly routine :) Before our first walk, we will set up a meet and greet so I can learn more about your furry friend and see their temperament. I fully respect the guidance and care instructions that you provide and following them accordingly during your pets stay. I like to send lots of pictures during our time together
“Annalisa was great with my 4 month old puppy! She was punctual, responsive, and engaged with Juniper. She always took photos and kept me updated with any changes & questions. She was willing to come for a meet & greet as well as for key pick up! I was grateful for the help!”

About: Hello! I have not had pets of my own because of apartment living restrictions however have taken care of friends pets (cats and dogs) for over five years. I am a responsible, kind, and active sitter that respects your pets space and sticks to their routine as close as possible while you are away. My approach is grounded in deep kindness and lots of care. I am gentle with pets and attuned to their needs. Overall, I am dependable and easy to communicate. Because of my flexible work I can be around most of the day if that's what your pet needs or drop by as needed. Looking forward to meeting your furry loves and caring for them while you are away. I’m open to recurring dog walking gigs! My work is flexible and therefore I am available to support your pet's regular routine. I am available to lounge and play with your furry members as needed. I am attentive, engaging, and ready to play or cuddle. I am eager to learn your pets likes and dislikes and follow their lead on making them feel comfortable while you are away.

Whether your pup needs boarding or day care, they’ll get lots of one-on-one attention, walks, naps, and a calm daily rhythm. I only take one guest dog at a time to keep things peaceful and personal. I work from home, so I’m around to provide steady companionship, regular potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. What I Offer: • One guest dog at a time • Small/medium breeds or seniors only • Quiet, low-stress environment • Ideal for shy, anxious, or elderly dogs • Frequent photo updates • Quick communication • Lots of attention I would love to meet your pup and help them feel right at home. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to see if we’re the right fit! I work from home, so I’m able to give lots of attention throughout the day. My schedule is consistent, which creates a relaxed environment for visiting dogs. Walks, meals, and cuddle breaks easily fit into my daily rhythm—and my chihuahua Cathy is always happy to have a friend around. Because I only take one dog at a time, each pup gets focused, attention in a peaceful setting. In my home, I offer a safe space where dogs can relax. I keep the environment quiet and low-stress, with soft bedding, plenty of fresh water, walks, and companionship.

I follow feeding, walk, and medication instructions carefully, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs with different temperaments, from an aggressive, rescue chihuahua to a laid back elderly golden retriever. My favorite part of caring for animals is hanging out with and seeing all kinds of personalities in animals! I would love to provide a safe space for your pet! I’m currently a full-time worker (9-5), but am available most weekday nights and weekends if informed ahead of time! As for boarding, I work close by and am available at noon to feed, walk and check in on your pet. During boarding, I keep my nights free:-) I have no other pets or children in my home, so it will be extremely stress free for your pet! My apartment has a fenced shaded garden area I can take your pet. My neighborhood is very quiet, shaded, and peaceful— perfect for walks!
“Mickie took great care of our cats while we were out of town and I would book again with her without hesitation! She is super responsive and our extroverted cat took to her in minutes.”

“I cannot ask for a better sitter for my baby. She made sure to give him lots of attention and love when I was away, she messaged me and kept me updated throughout it all. I came home to a happy cat, all thanks to her. On top of that she helped me out a lot in the house, made sure everything was clean and prepared, watered my plants and also refilled my cat’s food and water. I have booked from Rover before but no one comes close to Veronica. I 100% recommend her and will be booking again if needed. Thank you so much Veronica, you’re the best!”


“Jacqueline is AMAZING! She was flexible, she was always on time or early, my pup loved her! She obviously loves what she does. I would hire her again, no question!”

“Deirdra was extremely attentive and caring when she looked after my cat over the holidays. She was very thorough and communicative and shared lots of photos and updates. I felt I was in very capable hands and my cat was well looked after and loved. I would definitely recommend her and books Deirdra again! She also left the cutest “report card” for my pet at the end of her stay 😄”

Laura is a fantastic petsitter! My senior cat needs multiple medications on a specific schedule and Laura is great about keeping to the schedule and keeping my cat as calm and happy as possible. She has no problem giving the meds and was proactive in asking for a demonstration ahead of time. She is a great communicator, very quick to respond and attentive to my cat’s health and his needs. She clearly cares a great deal for the animals she watches. I’m so glad I found her and will absolutely continue to rebook her!

Noa was incredibly responsive, responsible and accommodating. She took loving care of our five little pups at the AirBnB we were renting while we were attending an out of town celebration. She went out of her way to come over for a meet and greet during her lunch break and gave us full confidence that she was the right person to attend to our pups’ needs and give them good love. Highly, highly recommend. 🐾
Jane is always a fantastic communicator! This past time our cat had recently had dental surgery so we had extra requests and each time Jane made sure to keep us updated on everything, taking extra care to spend time with Marshall. Could not ask for better care while we were away.

I’m so glad Tasha was available to do drop-in visits for my two cats again! She was so sweet and caring with them. Before the booking she was extremely communicative and made sure she had all the care instructions she needed. Every day she stopped by, she wrote a long note and sent pics that made me confident my girls were being well taken care of. Thank you Tasha for your excellent care!

Jeniffer was such a wonderful sitter for my cat, Luna! She was timely, communicative and loving when I was away, allowing me to feel a little less guilty about being gone for a week. She cleaned the litter box, checked the food and water, brought in mail and sent a thorough report every day of Luna’s mood and what she did that day (plus plenty of photos). She genuinely loves cats so this was a plus for me; Luna warmed up to her right away and now has a new friend. I would happily recommend Jeniffer to anyone looking for a cat sitter in West LA!

Olivia was amazing! She took great care of our young kitten and our 2-year-old cat, who isn’t always the friendliest with new people. Even our grumpy cat loved her! She sent lots of photos and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy cats and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!

Natalia has become my puppy favorite person in the middle of the day. She always jumps with joy the minute she sees Natalia coming through the door, and my sweet little puppy doesn’t even notice when I leave! Natalia Tree, my puppy joy as a she was her very own. She’s always punctual, and followed my instructions to the letter. She is truly a lifesaver.
