About: We had all sorts of animals while I was growing up, including cats and dogs. We started with cats and two beagles, and after the beagles' passing, we adopted the sweetest schnoodle (schnauzer-poodle) on the planet! Long story short, after my sister and I moved out, my parents ended up with two more dogs and trusted only one person (other than my sister) to look after all three dogs when they (my folks) would go on trips: me. We continued to have cats and other animals during that time. My parents are down to two dogs now, but that's been one of my jobs for the last several years, in addition to looking after friends' dogs. I've also volunteered at a couple of shelters as a cat socializer and cat/kitten foster parent. During that time, I completed a "Fear Free Shelter" course and understand the signs of distressed dogs and cats and how to reduce their stress (one spoiler: classical music for dogs). I also recently became certified in canine and feline first aid/CPR. Anyway, I love doing drop-in visits and dog walking and am happy to offer my home as a daycare. I love seeing animals in the comfort of their own homes and letting dogs explore my backyard. I'm currently funemployed, so I have time to do drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy daycare most days. Dogs staying with me for the day would have access to our fenced backyard. If you need only dog-walking or drop-in sittings, then I can usually start after 10a. For doggy daycare, I’ll be sure to provide the stability and boundaries your fur baby needs. Your dog is welcome on the couch during the day, and we have a heated and air conditioned home during the hot and cold months. If I'm in your home, such as for drop-in visits, I'll use Rover Cards to let you know when I arrive, document how things went while I was there (with photos), and let you know when I head out. It would also help me tremendously if you could provide written instructions on Rover ahead of time. My goal is to provide all of the comfort your honey needs while you’re away. (I've been that anxious pet guardian myself, so I get it!)

About: I have a deep love for all kinds of animals and have grown up with my fair share of dogs, cats, fish, and various reptiles that I cared for and adored! I’ve had 12+ years of professional experience in caretaking for a variety of pets of all ages and energy types from playful pups to shy seniors. I am also trained & certified in Pet First Aid and CPCR for Pet Care Professionals with course completion from Pet Sitters International. Open and flexible schedule. AVAILABLE mornings/afternoons/evenings and maximum of 2 consecutive nights for overnight stays. The pet parent’s time and requirements are of the highest priorities and most schedule requests will be considered. Thank you! For in-home visits, I carry my own travel kit which includes some basic items such as a leash/collar, food/water bowls, first-aid kit, and other miscellaneous items to ensure the care and comfort of your furry friend! For the safety of both the pet(s) and myself, I am comfortable handling small and medium sized dogs up to 40lbs.

About: I have taken care of dogs two years ago. I started to tell my boss if he need me to take care of his dog to let me know and that is how I started to take care of dogs. Ever since then I enjoy taking care of dogs and especially because I live in a house I feel happy that dogs can feel free and run around my house. I am currently going to school so I will have time to take the dogs out for potty because I won’t be out of the house for long. I have a fenced yard and there are no other pets so they will feel free to run around the yard and my house also has a lot of space in the inside.

“This has been his best walk EVER!! He got so much exercise over 5 miles!! Henry is amazing and so good to my baby!! I’m rebooking for sure! He’s definitely in high demand!”


About: Since I can remember, I have always been surrounded by pets. My childhood best friend was my furry companion and now, family and friends entrust me with theirs. I have learned to tend to their needs and give them all the loving they need and deserve! After losing my furry best friend, my aunts got pups of their own and I treat them as my own. I am often visiting and taking good care of them when their owners are out of town or for a weekend. Since they were puppies to present day, I have learned how to best take care of them and make sure they are always fed, water bowl is never empty, and keeping them active! I love and care for them and can’t wait to give back the same loving to yours! Because I am currently studying at university, I am available on most weekends. I am looking forward to being available all days once summer break starts and can’t wait to fill up my days doing one of the things I enjoy the most: hanging out with fur friends! I treat all pets entrusted in me as if they were my own and make sure we are all in a safe and controlled environment. When at home, I make sure to always have doors leading to the streets and sidewalks closed before letting them roam free in the yards. I also make sure to clean their paws before coming back inside and look for any scratches or questionable marks. Communication is key so I often am sending updates to owners and asking questions to best fit their pups’ needs.

About: What sets me apart? I tailor my services based on your pet's routine and preferences. Whether it's maintaining their feeding schedule, ensuring they get their favorite playtime, or sticking to their walking routine, I'm committed to keeping things consistent because pets thrive on familiarity. I am committed to taking care of you pet as if it was my own. My family and I are huge pet lovers, everyday we go out at night and feed the stray cats outside our apartment complex. Therefore, your pet will always be in good hands. I have been a pet owner of a dog and two cats for 8 years now and I absolutely love my babies. I will care for your fur babies as they were my own. I am currently working less than part-time but my work schedule is pretty open and very flexible. I am also taking one class at the moment (two weeks left of that class) before I start applying to nursing schools. So, I am available at your convenience. Anytime , I am here. I live in an apartment complex and I have a patio that is fenced so it will be available at your pet’s convenience but for the most part they will be with me inside my apartment with AC on if it’s hot outside especially as summer approaches. My apartment complex has a large area of grass and paths that I can take your pet out to walks for potty walks.

About: I've always had a passion for dogs and animals in general. Dogs are so sweet and loveable! I got my first when I was about 10 years of age so I have at least 15 years of experience with dogs and you can trust me with taking good care of them. Now I have two little doggies named Molly and Lulu who I love taking for walks and I'd love the opportunity to walk more of your dogs. I know sometimes we're all a little too busy to have time for certain things and I'd like to help in any way possible,even if it's just taking your dog for a nice little walk. Dogs are nothing but loveable and happy so I'd love to be around that each and every day!

I am often the friend people ask first to watch their pets when they go on vacation or have a long day :). I am a patient, gentle person who loves to spend time with animals. I am currently a graduate student. I have outfitted my schedule to ensure I can let my own dog out every six hours. Outside of class, I have plenty of time to do my own personal work, which means I could easily housesit and care for your pets! I am a very attentive person. I always make sure that no matter what I'm doing, I'm aware of where my dog is in my space in order to keep her safe. For walks, I keep a fairly short leash and I don't listen to music so I can be aware of my surroundings at all times to protect myself and my furry companions :)

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life. In my care your fur babies will be safe, cared for, and loved. I will update you as much as you’d like with plenty of pictures or videos. I have one dog of my own, a Frenchie. Animals to me are family. I am an empathetic person and have a passion for caring for animals. I am able to train puppies, potty train, and more. I am currently a student. I’m going to school to become a Registered Nurse, I major in Health Science. I also am working part time as a caregiver. I have more than enough free time to schedule more hours for pet sitting. I’m able to go to clients houses. I am currently living with roommates. I am still able to take care of pets in my house if needed.

About: We've been taking care of pets since age 5 for our family,friends and neighbors. We provide walking, feeding, limited training, special care, and limited grooming. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. My husband Robert is a full time caregiver and I'm a stay at home mom. Gives us plenty of time to take care of your loved ones. He will be assisting me on walks and overnight stays and drop ins. We are excited to start playing and having fun with your Fur-Baby. We have a fenced yard and a fur-baby of our own named Morena. She is a sweet dog but is aggressive when it comes to female dogs and cats. We want your fur-babies safe and comfortable and that's why is best for us not to care for your fur-baby in our home and not be put in harms way. We are very protective and cautious when it comes to our and other people's fur-babies.

About: Hello, my name is Mayra Esparza. I have 8 years of personal experience working with dogs and about 1 year of professional experience. Currently I am an employee at a doggie daycare in Studio City where I look after about 40-60 large dogs on a daily basis. As a doggie daycare attendant I am in charge of feeding all our doggies (while following all feeding instuctions given by the owner), cleaning up after them, administering all oral and topical medications, and most importantly looking after the well being of all the doggies. I am extremely lucky to have the opportunity to work with dogs on a daily basis. Everyday I get to see how loving, funny, and intelligent dogs are. I love the bonds I have grown with so many of the doggies I see on a regular basis, and I truly cannot wait to form a bond with your doggie as well.

About: I’m a prompt, kind, and honest lifelong animal lover. I’ve been a cat owner for 15 years and have regularly cared for dogs for 8 years. I’d be more than happy to drop in and play with your pets (and maybe watch some professional wrestling with them) or take them on a nice walk through your neighborhood. I’m good with all kinds of pets. And will always listen to your needs and treat your animals as if they were my own. I’m very observant and take great care to make sure your pet is happy and healthy. I also have experience administering oral medication and diabetic injections. Whatever age your pet is, I can adapt to suit their needs. I have a flexible schedule, am prompt to respond, and have great written and verbal communication skills. I look forward to helping out with your pet soon! I start my days early at 5:45am, in order to care for my diabetic senior cat. After that’s done, I plan out my day according to my personal and Rover needs. I usually am home by 6pm, to cat for my cat again. I’ll come by and address whatever needs your pet has, such as feeding, playing, or walking. I’ll take note of what their demeanor is and how they’re doing. And I’ll update you on everything and lock up when I leave.

“Thank you so much for being such a reliable and kind walker for our fur babies. We appreciate you greatly!”


About: Hello, my name is Ally and it’s a pleasure to meet you and your fur-babies! I’ve been around dogs my entire life especially puppies so if you have any pups that need caring, I’d be more than happy.

So much so it’s brought me here and I can’t wait to meet you :) I am very flexible with my schedule and care for my own households dogs.

2. Tiffany L.
“When I think of a pet caretaker, I think of someone who has both a love of animals and also the knowledge and experience to care for them; you can't really do without one or the other. Tiffany has an abundance of both. First, it's easy to tell that Tiffany loves all sorts of animals, including dogs, cats, fish, and reptiles. One can tell she has a deep and abiding empathy and enthusiasm for them: She always strives to understand their needs and wants, gives them space as necessary (this is especially important with cats and reptiles), and is thoughtful about not only their short-term but also long-term well-being (which includes long-term health concerns, including diet and environment). Second, Tiffany has extensive experience with caring for animals. She has grown up with and currently has several dogs of her own, whom she has worked hard to train well. She has also cared for my two tuxedo cats and others' cats. And she worked for a long time at a reptile shop and has bred and raised several reptiles, including snakes, lizards, and frogs. I highly recommend Tiffany for all your pet caregiving needs!”




3. Brenda M.
“Brenda is incredible! As a mommy to a fur baby I needed some reassurance that my baby was in good hands! She's so sweet and caring and definitely keeps you posted how your fur baby is doing. I was of course super scared to leave my little one with a stranger but boy did that change quickly. She truly treats your baby like it's her own. I highly recommend her to anyone who's looking for someone loyal and caring.”
