She was amazing with our puppy, super kind, patient, and really thorough. You can tell she genuinely cares about dogs and keeps you updated so you never worry. Our little guy was happy, calm, and clearly well-taken-care-of when we got home. I’d definitely book her again.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years, and I genuinely treat every pet like my own. I helped raise my childhood dog, Chloe, from a puppy. My current dog, Blue, is a medium-sized lab/terrier rescue with skin allergies who I’ve raised from puppyhood. He’s incredibly smart, well-trained, and even uses communication buttons! Between my own pups and helping care for friends’ and family’s dogs, I’ve had experience with all kinds of personalities—shy, anxious, energetic, and everything in between. I bring calm, loving energy to every dog I meet, and I’ll always make sure your pet feels safe, cared for, and truly loved while you’re away. Right now, I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets in my care lots of attention and consistency. I’m home often and structure my day around my own pets’ needs—feeding, walking, playtime, and baths—so adding another pet to that rhythm is a seamless fit. I truly enjoy being present with animals and making sure they feel safe, seen, and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible to help them feel safe and secure. Whether I’m in your home or welcoming a pet into mine, I provide a calm, nurturing environment with plenty of affection, mental stimulation, and consistency. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean space, potty breaks or walks, and playtime that matches their energy level. I’m also very mindful of pets who are shy, anxious, or need a little extra patience and comfort.

About: I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and caring for them with patience, warmth, and attention. I have several years of hands-on experience with dogs, including experience as a dog owner, caring for other people’s dogs, and caring for a puppy. I’m also comfortable giving medications when needed. I understand that every dog is different and has their own routine, personality, and comfort level. I always do my best to make dogs feel safe, calm, and cared for through loving attention, consistency, and gentle care. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to the pets I look after. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits and pet sitting, and I do my best to keep each pet on their usual routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I believe it’s very important to follow each owner’s instructions, routines, and usual way of caring for their dog. I’m very attentive to those details because they help pets feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. I want each dog to feel not only well cared for, but also to have a sense of familiarity and home-like comfort while you’re away.

Aech was wonderful for a drop-in for my boy! She took him out for a potty break then gave him lots of love and attention until leaving. I got prompt updates and photos right after the visit. Would definitely book with Aech again!

About: I’m a lifelong dog owner and animal lover based in Venice. I’ve cared for dogs since I was 5 years old, and they’ve always been a central part of my life. I currently have two well-socialized dogs who enjoy calm, structured walks and daily outdoor time. Your dog will always be treated with patience, consistency, and care tailored to their individual needs. I’ve raised dogs through all life stages — from puppies to senior dogs — and understand how important it is to feel confident your dog is safe, comfortable, and well looked after while you’re away. My background includes years as a tech executive and current doctoral studies in Chinese medicine, which has strengthened my reliability, attention to detail, and calm, steady approach to care. I'm a full-time medical student who prioritizes keeping my pups active, happy and relaxed. I'm home most of the time studying when I'm not at school 10 minutes away. Would be happy for your dog to join us on our daily walks and outings! If you don't see the availability you need in the calendar please feel free to reach out. I have experience caring for my own dogs and understand how important it is to have someone reliable and attentive looking after your fur baby. I'm calm, responsible, and tuned into each dog's needs. Happy to follow your dog's routine and keep you updated so you feel at ease.

About: I've been a dog walker, dog lover, dog groomer, dog kisser, dog snuggler, dog hugger, dog teacher and dog admirer since the day I was born. Growing up, my family always had a dog around the house. We had Mandy Dog (a German Shorthaired Pointer), Winnie (fluffy-sunshine-mix-a-doodle) and Paris (Australian Shepherd/Pitbull mix) at various stages of my youth. When I was 12, I raised my first puppy (a lil fluffy Golden named Lucy) and I taught her everything from sit to play dead. In high school I was a dog bather for a local dog groomer. From this job I learned about different breed personalities, needs and care. Currently, I work from home and would love to care for your friend. I'm very flexible on timing and availability. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I can do same-day visits on the west side. Whatever you and your pet need I will try to accommodate. My front yard is enclosed and safe for sniffing and hanging out but I will be walking your pets all around my area (avoiding the canals) and playing with them on the beach (unless you don't want this/they don't enjoy that).

I work full-time from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to take breaks throughout the day for walks, playtime, and whatever care your pet needs. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’m respectful of your space, follow instructions closely, and communicate clearly with regular updates and photos. If your pet is staying in my home, they’ll have a calm, comfortable environment with outdoor access, plus lots of supervision and companionship since I work from home with a flexible schedule.

My home is also a calm, comfortable environment that works very well for cats, bunnies, and other small pets.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have been a dog mom for five years, along with fostering and volunteering when I’m able. I love making new furry friends wherever I go. I work full time at a marketing agency, and I love spending my free time on long walks. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’d be happy to have your furry friend along for the adventure. I love spending time with furry friends of all energy levels, whether they want to throw the ball, go for a walk, or just cuddle and enjoy some pets. I also foster dogs when I’m able, which has taught me how important it is to build trust, form a bond, and let each pet guide the interaction at their own pace.

About: From growing up with Golden Retrievers to taking solo-care of my Bernedoodle for the past 6 years, caring for dogs has always been part of my everyday. Throughout the years, I’ve welcomed pets of various breeds, ages, and needs into my home. Eager to continue providing a supportive hand to pet parents, I look forward to ensuring yours receives the best care possible. My promise: to take care of your pet like I would take care of my own. I am currently working remotely with a flexible schedule that allows me to provide constant care and attention to any and all of your dog's needs. I have a dog-friendly apartment in Marina del Rey with a sundeck, a dog run and a quiet neighborhood with nearby parks & marina pathways for daily walks. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and will be given close, loving attention throughout each day! I'm comfortable with all types of pet needs, including administering medications and basic potty and manor training for puppies. Just let me know how I can help and I will make my schedule fit your needs! I have a 30 lb mini-bernedoodle of my own who is incredibly sweet and gentle, especially with smaller dogs. She is pretty calm and good at reading the room, but is willing to do one on one play time if your dog is looking for a playmate. :)

About: Hi! I’m a speech therapist and lifelong cat and dog lover based in Venice. I share my home with my friendly cockapoo, and over the years I’ve had the pleasure of dog sitting a variety of breeds—including border collies, Italian hounds, and chihuahuas. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs, and I’m committed to providing them with care that feels like home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy companionship, your pet will be treated like family! I’m new to rover and have no reviews yet :( I work as a school based speech therapist, so after school or care during breaks are an option! Afternoons are best for my schedule. Let’s make it work! I have a large apartment in Brentwood, with a fenced in dog park on the apartment grounds. When caring for animals in other people’s homes, I focus on maintaining their usual routines, providing plenty of affection (if they want it!), keeping their environment clean and safe, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

Mami was awesome. She was very responsive even though I booked the sit pretty last minute (less than 24 hours). She offered to come over in the evening and meet Minnie ahead of the sit and so I could show her a few things about where Minnie's items are in the house. She was very attentive and on time and Minnie loved her! I will definitely use her again in the future!
