About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with pets of all personalities and energy levels. I got my dog when I was 5 years old and he was truly my best friend for 17 years. Ever since then, dogs have always been a huge part of my life. After moving from Minnesota to California, I had the opportunity to work on the TV show Dog Whisperer with Cesar Millan and it’s still one of the best jobs I’ve ever had! Being around dogs every day only deepened my appreciation for how unique and special they are. When I got engaged, my then roommate surprised me with a puppy party Bridal Shower! She knew I didn’t want anything traditional so when I walked into our apartment and there were puppies running all over the kitchen, I almost died of happiness! These days, I’m building my own genealogy research business and looking to spend more time caring for animals again through dog walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. While I’ve always been a dog person, many of my friends have cats, so I’ve grown into a cat lover too! I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and genuinely happy around animals. Whether your pet needs a walk, play time, or just someone caring to check in on them, I’d love to help. My schedule is currently pretty flexible, especially for daytime walks and drop-in visits. I primarily serve pets close to my neighborhood, which allows me to provide dependable care and consistent availability throughout the week. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I pay close attention during walks and visits to make sure pets are secure, comfortable, and well-cared for at all times.

Kat has been a great help for potty breaks with our dog. He's slow to warm up with new people and Kat was great taking the time to get to know him. She follows his care instructions to the letter and gives us a very detailed report each visit, we look forward to working with her more!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and absolutely love the joy and comfort they bring. No fur baby is too big or too small to accompany me on my neighborhood walks. I look forward to becoming your pets new friend! I’m a freelance assistant with a ton of free time to cater to your pets needs. I have the flexibility to be available for you in the morning, afternoon or night time. I live in a secure apartment building with no children or other pets in my home. I have a park nearby where everyone walks their dogs, water and food bowl on hand if needed and ready to accommodate each and every one of their needs.

About: Having a dog and 2 cats as a kid was the best childhood! I am home most of the day so I have lots of time to walk and play with your pup! I live with my boyfriend who also loves animals. I have been freelance dog sitting/walking for the last year through friends but looking for more furry friends here! Send me a message so we can talk more about you and your pet’s needs I work from home doing a part time job so I am mainly a home body. I am based in North Hollywood and generally service Noho, Burbank, Toluca Lake, Studio City and parts of Sherman Oaks I don’t accept animals from multiple households at once for my safety and theirs. I have multiple screen doors where they can safely watch the world outside at all the people and dogs who might pass by. I can also offer daytime sitting in someone’s home as long as my laptop and internet access is allowed!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments for several years through friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I have experience with both high energy pets and more relaxed or senior animals, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m very attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets are secure at all times. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: Hi there! My name is Jennifer and I am a lover of animals and nature. I am very attentive to the animals that I work with and I am highly sensitive to the needs of those around me, including animals. I grew up having a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, fish, snakes, and hamsters. I currently only have one pet, a bearded dragon (who lives in a tank). I have several years of experience working as a pet groomer's assistant for a mobile pet grooming business, where I worked daily with dogs and the occasional cat. I am happy to come to your four-legged friend for dog walking and check-ins, or they can come to my home for boardings. Thank you for visiting my profile and I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I am a part-time student so I have plenty of time to give attention to your beloved best friend! I am home most days of the week and only out for short periods of time to run errands. My schedule is fairly flexible. For boardings: I have a front yard & a back yard, however the front yard will only be used if your pet is leashed so as to not risk them getting out. The backyard is escape-proofed for even very small dogs, and your pet will never be left outside unsupervised. The backyard is big enough for playing fetch & potty breaks. I typically do not leave any animals alone in my home for more than a couple hours at a time, in case I need to run an errand. For sittings: I am very courteous as to keep your home in the condition that it was left in upon arrival. I will put items where I found them & treat your pets and your home with the same care & respect that I would give my own pets & home!

About: We both have had and cared for dogs since we were children. We’d be very happy to open up our home to your best friend. My wife and I work from home so your dog will never be alone for long. Our regular routine includes walks around the block and local parks. Our building is very pet friendly. We have dog bowls, medium sized crate and bedding. We also have chew toys and the occasional dog treat.

About: Cat dad to two wonderful children. In my spare time I rescue, foster, and find homes for cats. I’m comfortable with all sorts of cats, from lazy to spicy, I always let the cat choose their own pace in how they want to interact with me. While I don’t have a dog right now, I grew up surrounded by them and have a lot of experience taking care, walking, and playing with them. I have experience with senior animals and giving medicine when needed. I will treat your fur babies with the love and care I give my own. I’m a copywriter/proofreader who works from home so I’m happy to fit your animal care taking needs into my very flexible schedule. I’m very patient and let the animals warm up to me at their own pace. Whether that’s on walks or when dropping in for a home visit.

About: Hi, I'm Christina! 🐾 I've spent the last 20 years loving animals in every form — dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, you name it. But dogs have always had my whole heart. My love for dogs runs deep and personal. I'm the proud parent of Ricky, a pit bull who came into my life after the passing of my grandfather — he was my grandfather's dog, and keeping him meant keeping a piece of someone I loved. Ricky taught me that dogs aren't just pets. They're family, comfort, and connection. That's exactly the energy I bring to every walk, visit, and overnight stay. I want to be the person your dog runs to the door for. The fun aunt who knows all their favorite spots, respects their quirks, and makes sure they feel safe, loved, and completely at home — even when you're not there. I'm experienced with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments, including pit bulls and larger breeds that sometimes get overlooked. I'm also comfortable administering medication to cats and have cared for reptiles and fish, so no pet household is too complicated for me. Whether your pup needs a quick visit, a long adventure, or a sleepover with someone who will treat them like my own — I've got them. 🐾

About: Hi, I’m Michelle! I provide boutique, in-home dog care in a calm, low-stress environment designed for dogs who thrive with personalized attention and consistency. Unlike high-volume boarding environments, I intentionally host only 2 client families at a time whenever possible, allowing your dog to receive individualized care, close supervision, and a quieter home setting. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet in someone else’s care. My background in hospitality and client relations has made me highly detail oriented, responsive, and dependable. I treat every booking with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. My home is best suited for: • Dogs who prefer a calm environment • Small to medium breeds • Doodles and companion breeds • Senior dogs • Dogs who may feel anxious in busy kennel settings • Owners looking for reliable communication and peace of mind while traveling What you can expect: • Personalized care and attention • A clean, structured, supervised environment • Frequent updates, photos, and communication • Flexible routines based on your dog’s needs • Walks, playtime, rest, and lots of affection • A respectful, low-volume environment without chaotic pack boarding I know every dog has a unique personality and comfort level, and I take the time to make them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I'm currently working part time from home, so I'll have plenty of time to walk and play with your pups! I'm available for doggie day care and boarding from morning drop off until evening pick up at a mutually agreed upon time. I have a comfortable & peaceful home, fully fenced backyard and a sweet friendly dog (Miniature Goldendoodle)to keep your fur baby company. I can also easily crate your dog if needed.

About: My Cairn Terriers (like Toto from Oz) hike Griffith and Runyon, chase squirrels, dig holes, play fetch at Weddington Park and take long walks. Sometimes we just lay in the sun or snuggle on the couch, but this is a loving home that is grain free, caters to the Fluff gang and we’re big on patience and attention. I've raised five dogs in my life - German Shepard, Black Lab, Lhasa Opso and now my Cairns. Having learned so much from each of them and the love I have for dogs in general, I'm excited to welcome your loved one into my home and help you be at ease knowing they're well cared for. I know nothing can keep you from missing your pet, but a confidence in them being comfortable and loved while you're away is a great help. ***Originally DogVacay, I’ve been with the service since 2010 and rarely open up to new clients. After a few folks moved out of town and others had kids which limited travel time, I’m opening up again. My preference would be to begin those same kind of long term care relationships with people who travel often or for larger lengths of time which allows your pup to feel as though they’re always going to a safe and familiar space with friends they know and love playing with. Working from home has allowed me to better care for my own senior pups and also gives me the freedom to spoil your loved one as well. My two friendly senior pups and I enjoy a gated back yard that still sees birds and squirrels enough to entertain them while being safe from any interactions. We have astroturf for back scratching and enjoying the sun, as well as a front yard, quiet cul de sac streets and a giant park for leisurely walks.

About: I have taken care of friends' dogs and neighbors' dogs a lot growing up. I have had the same dog since I was 6 years old, and he is now 16 years old. I love taking care of him and hanging out with him. I have done a lot of walking dogs as well. I am currently looking for part-time work as a server. I recently graduated from college and am looking to focus on personal health for a few months before looking for full-time jobs. Because of this, my schedule and routine are flexible in a way that accommodates pet care. I live in an apartment with roommates, so I do not currently own pets, and I cannot house pets in my place. With my childhood dog, I would always participate in his feeding, walking, grooming/washing, and taking him on walks. I loved sitting with him and giving him pets as well. I am mainly looking for dog walking, pet sitting, and helping with potty breaks as well.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - North Hollywood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in North Hollywood on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 18,656 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across North Hollywood. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a North Hollywood stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Hollywood. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% can help with daily exercise

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.

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.
