“Jane is my go-to sitter! She’s patient with our shy dog and always keeps us in the loop. We so appreciate her and will continue to seek her out when we’re away.”

“Laura is amazing! She stepped in super last minute to take care of my boy when my friend flaked on me WHILE I was out of town. Laura is kind, trustworthy, and very patient. My dog is a bit on the shyer side and she seemed to know exactly what to do on how to gain his trust based on intuition and experience. I can’t recommend her enough and will be hiring her in the future. Thank you again, Laura! 🩷✨”

“Yuliia was fantastic. As someone who works very long hours, I needed someone to check in on my very social cat during the day. Yuliia was so kind to him, sent me the best photos and videos, played with him, and gave him company while he ate. I could tell he liked having her there. I know will ask Yuliia for her help again!”


About: I’ve lived with dogs all my life, and just lived with my roommate's dog for four years. He is an extremely anxious dog so I have experience with that. We've had to be very careful taking him outside, so I understand the special needs of anxious dogs. I'm currently working part-time so just trying to use the extra time to help with your pets! More free on the weekends but I can definitely find time during the week! I treat your pet and home like it's my own. I understand how important it is to create a safe and calming environment for pets!
“Molly was amazing at taking care of our cats. We last minute booked a trip and needed someone to help us with the cats. Molly was easy to communicate with, and we felt very comfortable. Can't wait to use her again.”

“Absolutely great experience. Anya was so professional, kind, and conscientious in her care for our two cats. I was nervous leaving my very shy cats for a few days, but Anya handled everything beautifully. She is the best!”

“We love Kayla! Every time we come home the apartment is well kept and our kitten is very happy! She even went above and beyond to text me about the AC being on because it was a hot day and she wanted the kitten to be comfortable. We will be booking her again!”

“Talia was so amazing with my dog. During her drop-in visit, she was super communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos which I really appreciated. It was so nice to see how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. My dog clearly adored her and was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’d trust Talia to watch my dog anytime and I'll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve been an animal person for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog at 11. It was a 2 year old Pomeranian. And a year later we brought home another, this time a senior. Having two dogs that young meant I had to show my parents that I was responsible. So I learned take care of them myself, from baths to keeping up with their vaccines. Some of my favorite memories are just walking them to the park or running around the house playing chase until I was completely drenched in sweat. Now I have the most adorable 4 year old kitty I adopted as a kitten, and she completely changed my mind about cats! I really do love both dogs and cats equally. Honestly, in another life I’d probably be a vet or working with wildlife, but for now I just genuinely love taking care of (mostly non-marine) animals and treating them like my own. Please note the following: Drop-offs and pick-ups are accepted between 6:30 AM – 9:00 PM. Daily updates are provided between 7:00 AM – 10:00 PM.

So I am almost always available to play and spend time with your furry babies! I am also pretty active and love going on a run/taking walks to nearby parks. I live in an apartment with a spacious, gated yard. I also have a very social cat who gets along well with both dogs and cats. I’ve previously pet sat for friends’ dogs and cats, so I’m familiar with managing multiple pets in the home. If needed, I can keep my cat in my room for the duration of your pet’s stay to make sure your pet has a comfortable, low stress environment.
“Madeline took excellent care of Nori! She was always on time, provided above and beyond communication, and took the time to play with Nori each visit. I will absolutely be having her back to watch our cat again!”


“Victoria did such a wonderful job taking care of our cat for a long weekend! She was super communicative and sent us some cute photos every day. We will definitely book her services again!”

“Esther watched our two kitties with super short notice. She stopped by to meet them and was very thorough for each check-in. Our two cats are rescues, so they have a lot of anxiety. They were very comfortable with her. We’d definitely hire her again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for animals, my special connection with them, and the fact that I dedicate my life to their care and well-being. I truly believe that dogs are a gift to humans, bringing joy, comfort, and companionship to our lives. I have experience caring for puppies and senior dogs, including administering medications, basic training, and adapting playtime or walks to suit any age or ability. My attention to detail and calm, affectionate approach help pets feel comfortable and secure when they're with me. I treat every dog as if they were my own and strive to build trust with both pets and their owners. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I am home most of the day and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give dogs consistent attention, walks, and care. I am available Monday to Saturday and can adjust to your pet’s routine, whether that means walks, drop in visits, or staying in your home to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I provide safe, attentive care in your home so your dog can stay comfortable in their own environment and routine. I follow all instructions carefully, keep spaces clean, and make sure your pet feels calm and secure. I am attentive to behavior, safety, and any specific needs, and I always communicate clearly with updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you are away.
About: I've taken care of dogs for friends and family since I was 10 years old. I've done full service sitting, at their houses as well as my own, including medicine administration, bathing as needed and lots of walkies and playtime. I am also a LA animal services volunteer with Fear Free Shelter certification. I mainly work with dogs at the shelter. I am currently working from home part-time so I'm around 7 days a week with a flexible schedule. I live alone with no pets so your pet would be my main focus with no additional considerations. I'm able to prioritize your pet's schedule to make sure that their time while you're away is calm, relaxed and fun. I care for pets based on their needs and their owner's instructions first and foremost. The only preconceived notion I bring to a sitting job is to treat both pet and owner as well as their living space (if I'm staying there) with love, respect and patience. I make sure to get to know the pet and their personality so I can use my training and knowledge of behavioral cues to heighten the level of communication and understanding between me and the pet. I provide frequent updates so owners have nothing to worry about - and plenty of pictures.
About: I have over 10 years of dogsitting experience ranging from puppies to 20 year old senior dogs - and dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm a dog mom to a 3-legged pup who is my world. I've never met a dog that I don't love - and it's (almost) always mutual; I've been called the dog-whisperer by many. I have time on the weekends, and sometimes during the week as my job is hybrid and offers flexibility. I also have specific times of the year that I have off from work (i.e. Christmas time) and am very available to help with pup needs! As someone who has a very friendly dog that can be slightly anxious at first, I approach all dogs I meet for the first time with caution, usually getting closer to their level before any contact. I am patient with the pups, knowing that some dogs take a little more time to get used to a new person. I always ask for all rules that an owner has (dogs allowed on furniture? specific treats they can get and how often) to ensure I don't throw off a dog's routine.
About: I’ve cared for dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with 4 dogs in the house so I can handle multiple dogs. All my friends say I can get any dog to like me. I’ll be someone you can trust. I’m currently studying to be a vet tech so I’d love to care for your pups when I’m not in class! Whether you need help in the mornings or evenings, I’ll be there! I’ll work with you depending on your needs to make sure your dog is as happy and comfortable as can be! I’ll work to gain your trust and the trust of your furry best friend.
Palms pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alicia is the absolute best! She is so kind, and so sweet with our Freddy when we’re gone. She takes such good care of him and send the cutest photos and updates. There was also an issue with the callbox on our building and she handled the whole issue/finding the spare keys so well— by the time we landed and saw her messages about the gate issue, it was all resolved!

Julia did an amazing job taking care of my cat for almost 2 weeks. She was consistent in her communication, attentive to detail, and very helpful when I needed her help resetting some of my security cameras. I appreciated that her schedule was very flexible as well. I felt totally at ease knowing Julia was checking in on my cat, and I would recommend her as a pet-sitter for anyone.

Elianna was wonderful with my two cats! She was very communicative and sent photos. She even got my very shy one to open up. This was my first time hiring a sitter who my cats didn’t already know from before,but Elianna was so caring and attentive that it definitely eased all worry I had. I would 100% recommend!

Well, let me start by saying that my kitties and I fell in love with Elizabeth. I have a semi-shy kitty, Otis, and a full skittish kitty, Louis. Otis absolutely loved her and would follow her around the house- from the moment she met her. Even my skittish one, came out when she would come over to pet sit. Elizabeth is the cat whisperer. I fell at ease being away knowing my kitties were well taken care of. She went above and beyond and I even found my place cleaner than how I left it. She’s a gift to pet parents ♥️

Thanks for helping me last minute while I had a personal emergency. Good communication (sent videos and photos), care, attention and support for my elderly cat and administered oral liquid medication. Went above and beyond. Would hire again! I recommend Shadi.

Kayla was so kind and communicative with taking care of our sweet kitty! We could tell our cat really enjoyed Kayla’s company and we’re so grateful for all of the photos Kayla shared from each visit. They’re the best pics we’ve ever got from a sitter! Thank you again!

Courtney just spent 4 days of twice daily visits with our 3 senior cats: Linus is super friendly; Gremlin is so bashful he didn't want to be found (but Courtney found him anyway); Joshi is a "special needs" (blind with bladder control issues) cat who lives in her own "apartment." Courtney's care of our of our feline family was excellent. She was very attentive to all the little details that go into their daily care. Plus, her attitude made working with her trouble free and pleasant We'll be booking visits with Courtney again. She is terrific!!
