About: Hi! I’ve had dogs my whole life. I started walking dogs for pay back in high school, and I spent countless hours helping out at my aunt’s veterinary hospital, learning firsthand how to keep pets happy and healthy. Whether your pup is a professional ball player, a brilliant treat negotiator, or anything in between, I’ll care for them like they’re my own. Let’s get walking! Pet care fits naturally into my routine because it’s something I genuinely love and look forward to! I work in administration during the day (my hours vary), but I typically have availability in the mornings and evenings, plus most weekends free. When I care for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat both the pets and the space with the utmost respect, as if they were my own. I’m extremely honest, responsible, and detail-oriented, and I make it a priority to follow all instructions exactly. Many clients say they hardly know I was there… except for the happy, relaxed animals waiting to greet them! My goal is to keep your pet comfortable and your home just as you left it.

“Kenneth has become one of my go-to Rover walkers. My senior Lab is comfortable walking with and hanging out with Kenneth and I appreciate his responsiveness, flexibility and enthusiasm.”


About: Hi! I’m Carmen, I am I life-long animal lover and I specialize in caring for small, medium and senior, or low-energy dogs who thrive in a slow-paced, cozy environment. Whether your pup needs boarding or day care, they’ll get lots of one-on-one attention, walks, naps, and a calm daily rhythm. I only take one guest dog at a time to keep things peaceful and personal. I work from home, so I’m around to provide steady companionship, regular potty breaks, and lots of love throughout the day. What I Offer: • One guest dog at a time • Small/medium breeds or seniors only • Quiet, low-stress environment • Ideal for shy, anxious, or elderly dogs • Frequent photo updates • Quick communication • Lots of attention I would love to meet your pup and help them feel right at home. Let’s set up a meet-and-greet to see if we’re the right fit! I work from home, so I’m able to give lots of attention throughout the day. My schedule is consistent, which creates a relaxed environment for visiting dogs. Walks, meals, and cuddle breaks easily fit into my daily rhythm—and my chihuahua Cathy is always happy to have a friend around. Because I only take one dog at a time, each pup gets focused, attention in a peaceful setting. In my home, I offer a safe space where dogs can relax. I keep the environment quiet and low-stress, with soft bedding, plenty of fresh water, walks, and companionship. If I’m caring for a pet in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, making sure your pet feels secure and well cared for in their own environment. I follow feeding, walk, and medication instructions carefully, and I’m always happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

“Julia is amazing and I cannot recommend her more highly - I’m thrilled to have a new cat sitter! After several bad experiences with others, I found Julia’s info through a recommendation on a neighborhood site. She responded immediately and came to meet us. My cat is afraid of just about everyone, but from the first contact, he was obviously a fan of Julia’s, which was a tremendous relief for me. She asked all the right questions and has a calm, reassuring presence. At each visit, Julia provided detailed updates with tons of photos showing an extremely happy, playful cat! Her regular communications and pics allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. I will absolutely be asking her to cat sit in the future and recommend her whole heartedly!”


“Lauren is the absolute best! She’s great with my dog and he’s adores her. She’s incredibly professional and is always on time. I love the notes she leaves on the app for my dog and the way she cares and bonds with my pup is unmatched!”


About: Growing up in lifelong dog owner’s household and being an animal lover, I have a deep understanding of what dogs need to thrive. I'm experienced with puppies and I know how to tailor my services to meet each dog's unique needs. Plus, I'm always punctual, reliable, and committed to providing the best care possible! I’m currently a full time homemaker, so I am incredibly flexible to work with your schedule any time during the work week. I am able to walk the dog multiple times during the day or evening. I prioritize safety and trust in our pet care services, providing a nurturing environment for your furry friends in your home or ours. I can provide the space necessary for a crate. We also have no toxic plants in our home.

“Tara was absolutely excellent! She watched our two beagles, Slate and Astoria, for 6 days while my wife and I were in Spain, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She provided detailed daily updates along with plenty of pictures, which really reassured us that our pups were happy and well cared for. It was such a relief to be away and not have to stress about their care. Tara clearly loves animals and treats them like her own. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, attentive, and caring to watch their dogs.”


About: Hi, I’m a Playa Vista local who works from home and loves being around dogs. I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages sizes over the years — from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just want a cozy place to nap. Whether it’s walks, feeding, meds, or just keeping them company, I’ve done it all. I’m also super active and love getting outside, so if your dog needs long walks or extra playtime, I’m all in. Whether it’s exploring the park or cruising around the neighborhood, I’ll make sure they stay active, happy, and loved. I treat every dog like my own — with patience, care, and real attention. Can’t wait to meet yours! I work from home and have plenty of flexibility to care for pets based on the schedule and timeline that works best for them. Will always make sure they’re cared for first and foremost. The biggest thing I care about is safety - so when entering the home I’ll make sure pets don’t get skittish or run out. Instead, I’ll use fear-free certification techniques to make sure they’re secure inside the home and outside.

About: During my pet care experience, I provided loving attention and warmth to furry friends, ensuring their comfort. I skillfully managed their needs, from feeding to playtime, creating a nurturing environment that promoted happiness and well-being. My dedication to their emotional and physical care fostered trust and joy!!! I have a deep passion for making pets feel as though they are with their very own parents. I create a warm and nurturing environment where they can thrive, filled with love and affection. My playful nature ensures that each pet enjoys engaging activities, fostering a sense of joy and comfort. I believe that every pet deserves to feel cherished, and I strive to provide that loving experience every day!!!! As a 25-year-old working in a restaurant, I balance my fitness routine with pet care by scheduling workouts during quieter shifts. Early mornings or late evenings are ideal for walking and exercising my pets. This dual commitment keeps me active and provides quality time with my furry friends, enhancing my overall well-being. I have a one bed apartment with everything a dog can need from blankets to toys & even treats. I can crate if needed!! (:

About: Hi! I'm Melissa, a lifelong dog lover who grew up with a sweet little Yorkie.

I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet — and I take that responsibility seriously, with lots of love (and belly rubs) to give! I work remotely from home and typically finish my workday by 2 PM, which means I have plenty of availability in the afternoons for walks, playtime, and check-ins.

When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I treat them like part of the family. I follow any specific routines or instructions closely to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well-loved. Whether it’s sticking to feeding schedules, giving medications, or making time for their favorite walk route or toy, I aim to keep things as familiar as possible. In my home, I provide a calm and pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax and feel secure. I work from home, so I’m around throughout the day to give attention, potty breaks, and walks. When I’m in a client’s home, I respect the space and ensure everything is tidy, secure, and comfortable for your pet. Communication is also important to me — I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know how your furry friend is doing!
