Highlights
Pet care experience
The Pawsitive Pack has your back!
**NOTE: Our prices are insane because even though we’ve been puppy sitting for a long time, we just started Rovering and want to make it a no-brainer for you to book with us so we can get off the ground on this site. Get in while the getting’s good!!** I've always had and trained dogs, from Shelties to Akitas, Poms to Huskies—and absolutely love having them around. Our house is known in Sherman Oaks as the “Pawsitive Pack.” My two kiddos are amazing with pups, though I am the sole adult provider responsible for all pet care duties. We have one of our own, a Bull Terrier named Piggie, who gets along with EVERYONE. Looking forward to welcoming your furry family member into our home for a visit!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Effie and family are superb dog caretakers. They are skilled and loving, and every dog through their home is welcomed warmly and deeply cared for. Effie has demonstrated only the highest level of love and attention to each animal that comes her way.
Honestly if you're lucky enough to get them you hit the jackpot with this sitter. Effie is a pro at all things dog related. her daughters Freya and Memphis are cute as a button and showered my guy with love and affection the whole time. the pictures tell the story
Effie took amazing care of our dog, Bruno, while we were away. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Bruno was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. When we picked him up, Bruno was relaxed, happy, and clearly had been given lots of attention and affection. Effie went above and beyond to make sure all of his needs were met, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely trust her with Bruno again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive pet sitter.
Effie is a responsible, loving, and truly natural pet caregiver. Dogs seem instantly happy around her—tails wagging, joyful barks, plenty of kisses, and long walks they clearly love. My dog Garrison Ford—Gary to his friends—was so attached to her that he would rather go home with Effie than stay with me, which says everything.
Effie watched my dog, Josie, for four days while I was traveling. I rarely travel because I'm so picky with who cares for her, but I couldn't be happier with my experience! I received frequent updates and photos of my girl having a great time - tons of playtime, cuddles, outings, etc. All instructions I gave were followed and I felt comfortable that Josie was being well taken care of. Any time Josie has seen Effie outside of her stay she's been beyond excited, which says a lot about her experience, too :) Thank you, Effie!
Freyja is an absolute natural with animals, especially dogs. I've seen her care for and interact with many dogs, of all sizes and breeds. She seems to speak their language, is patient, kind and firm in manner. She has done in home dog care for several dogs, treating them with love and respect. I highly recommend her services. She is responsible beyond her years, I highly respect her.

Schedule
I am able to be very present for any pup we host, as I work from home and am around during the days. Your pupper will get lots of cuddles, exercise, and attention. The kids love assisting with pet care when they're not at school. :)

Safety, trust & environment
Let’s schedule a meet-and-greet! We have a fenced yard and safe Piggie-tested home. (She gets into everything haha, so we've made plenty of accommodations!) Your pup will be very happy hanging out here.

A typical day
Playing in the yard is a fan favorite. Piggie and I go on a 2-mile trail run almost every day, and sometimes the dogs in our pack like to tag along. We also are regulars at the local dog park!
