About: I grew up having large dogs and am currently an aunt to a grey cat who is named Booboo. I allow pets to show their personality in order to give them the best care and keep them happy. I’m available Friday afternoons, Saturdays and Sundays. Just message me :) I’m flexible as long as I have a few hours notice. I can do mornings, afternoons or nights as needed I follow all care directions given by owners. I currently feed and play with my cat and give her lots of love. I will make sure all pets are taken care of and are kept safe
“Lianna was polite and professional while taking care of our cat Einstein. She goes above and beyond! Thanks so much for taking care of Einstein as if he was yours.”
“Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)”
About: I'm a young active college student that used to have a dog. He was very large so I'm very aware of how to handle all types. I truly will work on tending to your needs and being a security guard I'm very good with following directions. I truly loving and playful, I'm not one to disappoint. With that being said I'm truly flexible with dogs needs and everyday care, I will put on active wear if we need to run or walk and I'm a protector, so I would treat them like my very own. My mother has taught me that updates are the most comforting thing so if that's what you need to know your dog is safe a text takes 2 min out of our play time.
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and have experience caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes and breeds. From playful puppies to senior pets needing extra attention, I provide patient, loving care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, administering medication, or just giving them some extra love while you’re away—I treat every pet like family. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable nature and ability to connect with animals quickly, making them feel safe and cared for in any situation. As a member of the Editors Guild (IATSE Local 700), I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide attentive and consistent care for your pets throughout the day. My schedule allows for regular walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins—making sure your furry friends are never left feeling alone or overlooked. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I create a calm, loving environment where animals feel safe and cared for. I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walking, administering medication, and giving them the attention they need to feel secure. Because I work from home as a member of the Editors Guild (IATSE Local 700), I’m able to offer flexible, consistent care throughout the day. I make sure each pet gets plenty of play, cuddles, and supervision, whether I’m hosting them or visiting them in their own familiar space.

My animals are all fixed so no impregnating can happen. My pets do not have fleas, and are all potty trained.
About: Enthusiast of animals and have worked alongside them for years in volunteering and fostering. I even have my own pets so I understand the importance of training puppies and kittens and understand how important our babies can be to us. I work alongside the schedule that you guys give me! I find it easy to put time in my day to take care of your babies. My dog is young and has a bunch of energy, where else my cats are the opposite. So I understand being able to give them a health balance of time outside and time playing as well as nap time and time where they can chose to rest.

About: Hi there! I'm Joanna. I have experience in training puppies as well as watching over senior dogs. I can say I have a lot of patience and I understand how some dogs can be timid at first, but no worries I'm here to help bring out their confidence! I have always spent my time with dogs from a very young age. My dogs enjoy it when we go out for a hike, walk, or play dates at the dog park and I can definitely provide that for you if requested. Trust is one of the most important things and I know I will be able to provide that for you and your fur baby. I am a full-time student, but since the classes I'm taking are online, I can still be attentive to your fur baby at any moment! I currently only live with my small-sized dog, Archie. He is super friendly and enjoys going on walks, especially when he walks with other dogs. I understand how important they are in our lives and I definitely consider my dogs as my children so I would treat your pets just as how I would treat mine! I understand how every dog is different and they have different routines, but booking with an experienced dog sitter will ensure they get their needs met while giving you peace of mind!
“Leaving pets behind is always a nerve-wracking experience. Alexis went above and beyond to make sure our pets were well taken care of. I recommend her 100% and will be booking her again for all of our future pet-sitting needs.”
About: I’ve taken care of my own dogs for more than 10 years plus helping others in need with theirs when ever possible I’m a go getter I’m currently helping my grandma at her house while raising my teenage daughter so I am looking for flexible jobs with animals I really love I have two dogs of my own that I take care of as well they go for walks and are spoiled with so much love
“Cielo was great. Took photos each time she visited the cats, and we could really enjoy our time away knowing the fur-babies were getting the attention and care they needed.”
About: What sets me apart is my experience handling multiple pets at once while still making sure each one gets individual attention and care. I’ve cared for several dogs and cats together in the same household, so I’m comfortable managing different routines, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with young dogs and understand the patience and consistency they need. I’m happy to help reinforce basic training like leash manners, sit, stay, and good behavior during walks and feeding time. I also genuinely love going on long walks, so high-energy dogs get the exercise and mental stimulation they need, not just a quick potty break. Above all, I focus on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable by sticking to their routines and treating them like they’re my own. I am currently working part-time gigs after moving cross country in mid-2025 and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to make many times work and am able to sleep over or drop in as needed. I make sure to prioritize safety by anticipating potential dangers. My past experience as a daycare teacher has given me eyes on the back of my head and readiness for issues or safety concerns. I make sure spaces remain safe and comfortable for your pet and respect your guidelines and routines.

Accommodations for your pets are available if they are not good with other animals. I have plenty of free time for play time. I enjoy going on walks and exploring nature.

I highly recommend my dog sitter! He is always on time, very responsible, and does a great job taking care of my dog. I really appreciate his daily updates and reports—they give me peace of mind while I’m away. I will definitely book him again the next time I go on vacation. Thank you for taking such good care of my fur baby! 🐾❤️
I booked Ana to take care of my cat while I was away and it was my first time using Rover. She was very communicative, the meet and greet went well, and my cat totally trusted her off the bat. She paid close attention to detail while following my pets regular routine and my pet felt right at home while I was away. Would definitely trust Ana to take care of my cat again, she was great!
Joanna was great with my kitties and they warmed up to her super quick which is unusual! She was very communicative the entire week which gave me such peace of mind while away. It felt great to know my babies were being so well taken care of. Would definitely rebook.
Jamie helped us out by looking after our shih tzu and cat during a week long trip. The 2x a day home drop-ins he provided went smoothly, without a hitch. We returned home to a happy dog, mail brought in and trash taken out. We'd call on Jamie again for any future travel plans.

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 Pacoima 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 Pacoima. 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.
