“They were amazing caregivers to Chuck! Made him homemade sweet potato treats! Took him for a walk and kept him occupied and busy while I was away! I would definitely book with them again!”

“Amazing!!! I was so worried that I wouldn't find somebody to take care of my baby after moving from Australia. We had already had below average experiences with facilities in the city but Roxy is incredible and I am so happy we found her. Would highly recommend.”
“Brandy is amazing! My dog did not want to leave!! He kept wanting her to hold his paw and he just looked up at her so lovingly. I am so grateful I was able to find such an amazing dog sitter!! I will definitely come back to Brandy in the future for any dog sitter/boarding stuff I may need!”
“Pipa had the best time with her new friend Hazel! Ariel was the absolute sweetest the whole time — super caring, communicative, and made us feel totally at ease leaving Pipa with her. We felt so safe and confident knowing she was in such good hands. They’ll definitely be seeing each other again soon!”
About: At K9s Only West LA, our goal is to provide a happy, healthy, and safe environment for your pet when they're away from home. We're pleased to offer the Health Care Commitment Program, which reimburses up to $500 for eligible expenses incurred during your pet’s stay. Enrollment is automatic when your pet attends daycare, covering treatments or diagnoses for incidents that occur during their stay or within 5 days after departure. If veterinary care is needed, we’ll attempt to consult with your pet’s primary vet. If unavailable, we work with local veterinarians to address any medical issues.
“Oksana is great! She is super responsive and accommodating. I had to move an appointment due to a last minute change with my work schedule and she was super understanding and friendly. My puppy was well taken care of and she came home happy.”
“Angela took great care of Finn for the day! He can sometimes be nervous at new places, but she said he settled in well and had no issues. She asked a lot of questions to understand Finn ahead of time which I appreciated. He seemed like a happy boy while with her!”
“Jamie and Todd took such good care of iorek. They kept him active throughout the day and sent pictures to keep me updated on the fun. Their yard is very secure and spacious enough for my 100lb dog to play fetch and enjoy the sunshine while being off leash. I'm really glad I booked with them and would highly recommend others do the same.”
About: I can offer a safe and loving environment so you don’t have to worry during a night out or while you’re away. I have a playful Frenchie who loves having dog friends around. I work mostly from home and live with my partner, so someone is typically always home with the pups. We go on about three walks a day. I live in a spacious, clean apartment in a gated complex with a balcony that’s great for sunbathing and people watching. There is also a dog park nearby.
About: I’ve had a passion for caring for animals my whole life, which is reflected in my experience - from obtaining work experience at a vet for over a year to taking care of various animals growing up, such as hamsters, fish, cats, and to raising my currently owned Pomeranian since 2021. I've taken her from a tiny pup to a well-behaved, happy companion thanks to multiple dog training sessions I've completed. My goal is always to provide the same level of love and attention I give my own pets, so you can rest easy knowing your furry family member is in the hands of someone who genuinely understands their needs. I work from home full-time, which means I’m always around and have the flexibility to take breaks whenever I need to. My schedule allows me to spend plenty of quality time with any dogs in my care—whether that’s for play sessions, walks, or just hanging out to keep them company. Because I’m home most of the week (including weekends), I can easily accommodate daily care routines, feeding schedules, and last-minute needs without any hassle. In our own home, I provide a welcoming, pet-friendly environment in a spacious two-bedroom apartment, which is located near several dog parks for fun outdoor adventures. Your dog will have the freedom to roam around and find their own comfy spot to relax. We also have a Pomeranian who would love a playmate—she may get nervous/overexcited (especially around medium and large dogs) at first, but she’s never aggressive; I like to make sure to introduce her to new canine friends at a calm, controlled pace. One of my bigger goals is also to socialize our dog more as well. If you prefer your pet to remain in their own surroundings, I’m more than happy to care for them in your home. In addition to keeping your dog’s routine consistent (like walks, feedings, and playtime), I can also help with basic household tasks—such as bringing in the mail, watering plants, or adjusting the lights—so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away.
“Natalia was amazing! She was very communicative and provided so many pictures and updates throughout the day. Our little Hank had such a great time! I could not recommend Natalia enough and will be using her again!”
About: Hi! I’m Torie, I’d love to be considered to watch your fury friend! I’ve had dogs every since I was a kid, so taking care of care of pups is something special to me! I’ve dog sat for others family pets since I was in high school and love to be able to take care of pups when people go on their trips, so they can relax on their vacations knowing their dog is in good hands! The families I have watched their pups for in the past love that I go on 2 mile walks outside daily, and bring their pup along for the stroll! I have been relied on to walk, feed, and love on their pets☺️ My schedule is very open, so I am open to boarding/overnights any day of the week and am open to whatever time works best for your schedule! I stay in an apartment building where I have the entire top level, so my living room is very big! I am also comfortable coming to your home.
“Helena is fantastic! She took amazing care of Lady and treated her like her own. She was extremely responsive and sent me photos and updates throughout the stay. I will 100% be going back to Helena and highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog sitter.”
About: Hi! I’m Christine— an obsessed mommy to an adorable mini bichon, Eggi 🐶❤️. My dog is my world and I know your baby is too! **Please note** I am not a sitter for everyone. If your dog is adventurous and loves to be outdoors, I’m not for you. However, if your dog loves being pampered and cleanliness/daily essential grooming is your priority, I am for you! Calling all the high maintenance grooming dogs… Poodles, Bichons, Maltese, Yorkies and the likes. 🐩 Every time that I needed someone to dog sit, my dog would come back looking dirty & disheveled and realized that there may be a few others similar to what I need and look for in a sitter. I grew up with small, indoor dogs all my life; therefore, I am most comfortable with dogs that are: - friendly with other dogs. My dog is 5 lbs, 1.5 years old, and loves to play! - small, ideally under 15 lbs - indoor potty trained - okay when left alone for max 2 hours What I provide: - Clean environment! Filtered water with bowls cleaned daily, pee pads are switched out immediately. - Lots of play time & attention. I will be with your dog almost all day with the exception of 1-2 hours to workout or to run quick errands. - I will not book any other dogs during the time your dog is with me. - Daily basic grooming: teeth cleaning, brushing, cleaning eyes and tear stains, ear wipes (as your dog tolerates and needs) - Paws will be cleaned after every outdoor adventure 🐾 - Grooming for additional fee: bathing, trimming paw hair ***daily grooming is only applicable if your dog tolerates it and isn’t already matted*** I am currently studying and stay at home most of the day with the exception of 1-2 hours to go work out or run errands. Your pup will be roaming freely in my apartment all day. I can take your dog to parks by request (harness required, not a collar). Your dog will be carefully harnessed when traveling to and from places.
About: Although new to rover, I have extensive experience walking dogs and caring for animals. I pay close attention to your pet and ensure the experience is as positive as possible. I work remotely, so I do not leave the house during the work day except to walk the dog. I prioritize my schedule around caring for the dog. I walk cautiously and attentively to ensure that the dog is always safe. I pay close attention to their needs and will not hesitate to act if necessary.
“Shaakir has watched my dog several times now, and my dog loves him. He’s always been available when I’ve needed to book him. He’s communicative and responsive. I don’t feel like I have to worry at all about my dog when she’s with him. Definitely recommend!”

The Ranch Dog TrainingLocal facility
“I can not say enough wonderful things about The Ranch. We’ve had our dog stay here for daycare days for a couple of years so far, and we don’t plan on using any other daycare simply because of how excellent the staff are here. Everyone is so kind, and every daycare day gives you a report card from the staff member with pictures and notes on how the day went. You can also schedule boarding and/or training days, and the staff have been amazing in training us how to be even better dog parents. We always feel safe and happy whenever we drop off our dog, and we always recommend The Ranch to others looking for a dog training or daycare facility. Top tier dog LA location!”

Timothy J.

He’s always been the go-to person among our friends whenever a pet needs extra care or attention, whether it’s a quick walk around the block or a weekend of pet-sitting. Tim is organized, attentive, and incredibly responsible, making sure the dogs he cares for are well-exercised, well-fed, and showered with affection. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to leave my own dogs in his care, because I trust his reliability and know that he treats every pet like his own. If you’re looking for someone who’s dependable, thoughtful, and naturally great with animals, Tim is the perfect person!”

Christine S.
“Christine is the only sitter I trust with my diva poodle. My dog always comes back looking better than I left her! I personally don’t prefer my dog going out for walks while I’m away (hello anxiety from all the horror stories of dogs getting sick or lost!). She’s super communicative, keeps me posted with daily photos and videos, and is truly just a dog person. I can travel in peace because of her.”
Noah P.
“I highly recommend Noah as a pet sitter. He is kind, reliable, and has a natural way with animals. I’ve personally seen how caring and attentive he is with his parents’ cat as well as with my own dog, and both absolutely love being around him. He is patient, responsible, and genuinely enjoys spending time with pets, making sure they are comfortable and happy. Any pet would be lucky to have him as a sitter!”

Sawtelle dog parents share their Rover experiences
When I picked my Finny up I could tell he had such a nice time with Glenna! He was super happy and I could tell he was very comfy with her after the first time together. She was also so responsive! I’m really glad we found Glenna!! I was last minute and she was super flexible. Also loved all the photos and updates/recap from her too!
Jill is absolutely wonderful to work with!! Exceptionally communicative and responsive, and my senior, special needs dog (who generally is timid with new people) actually ran towards her the moment he saw her, as if he’d known her forever. On a very challenging day, Jill was flexible, helpful , sent lots of adorable pics showing just how happy my boy was, and kept him happy and in great spirits as if he were her own. I would not hesitate to work with her again. Can’t say enough good things.
Karen was lovely taking care of my nervous pup for the day. She read all my instructions and understood my dog's little quirks so that he could safely have a nice day. She was easy to communicate and coordinate with. She took him to the park and they had a lovely day. I would recommend Karen to anyone visiting LA.
Rusty hung out with Rebecca for the day while I was out of town and my wife had work and then the dreaded...boss's birthday party. As always with Rebecca, everything went swimmingly and without a hitch. She's highly, highly recommend for anyone who's gotta spend both working and leisure time with their employer, or anyone that just needs a great sitter for any reason, haha. Thanks again for the great doggy daycare visit, Rebecca! We'll see you again soon.
Brittany was wonderful!!! She took such great care of my little one! She was very responsive, sent great updates, and worked with Mia’s seperation anxiety to do baby steps to get her to stay alone a little during Mia’s visit! Brittany is very kind and has a love for dogs that’s so evident!
Brandy was great to work with. She graciously assisted with a quick booking that accommodated a last minute meeting that came up. Her disposition is warm and caring which allowed my puppy to connect with her immediately. Brandy has my highest recommendation and I will definitely request her again.
Mariana is the absolute best. I am so glad I found her. She not only takes phenomenal care of my baby but also is a huge help with recommendations on how to feed/train my Penny. She is very knowledgeable about how to best care for dogs and she truly cares about the wellbeing of your animal. She has the sweetest, calmest demeanor and I wholeheartedly trust her! Not to mention, she is highly flexible and available. Could not recommend Mariana enough 🫶🏻
