Dog Walking in Shadow Hills, Los Angeles, CA

“Jana does such a great job with Avenger. She spends great time with him, leaves detailed info on how things went and sends lots of pictures. Most of all, when we get home we know he was well taken care of because he’s so happy. Thanks again, Jana!”

About: Many years ago the ‘Dog Whisperer’ came into my life through personal training. Cesar Milan taught me how to successfully train my aggressive dog with a few behavioral changes and lots of exercise. I was blessed to take my dog to Cesar’s Dog Psychology Center (DPC) more than once. I learned so much working with Cesar and spending time with his dogs. Now I apply those same techniques to all the Rover dogs. The importance of disciplinary exercise has changed many of my clients’ dogs through multiple daily walks. Your dog will receive the same training Cesar provides while staying in my doggy day care and on our walks. He always said “a tired dog can’t misbehave” and it’s very true! I’ve been personally training celebrities like Cesar and his wife for 15+ years. My schedule is very flexible while accommodating clients 2-3 days a week. I am a professional bodybuilder so fitness is my lifestyle. I love walking, riding my bike and going to the gym. Exercise is more important to your dog than it is to us! I’m happy to share my passion of fitness with your dog. Pets are a gift and having them in your life is a true blessing. It’s your responsibility to provide the best care possible. They should never be seen as a burden or taken for granted! I used to walk my 2 dogs everyday before they passed twice a day, for at least a half hour. It was truly the highlight of my day. I really miss them and would like the pleasure of walking other dogs because exercise is so important to their mental and physical health as well as their behavior.

About: In the past, I was trained as a Customer Advisor at Petco and worked at a doggy daycare afterwards, making me well experienced in warning signs for any allergies or illnesses and much more detail oriented than your average sitter. If ever needed, I can also provide knowledge on what are the best products to recommend for your pet to fit their specific needs. I have had animals my whole life and I know what it feels like to be away from home and miss my pets dearly. When your dog or cat stays with me, I will keep you updated as much as possible. Sending pictures and/or videos to make you feel like your little ones are still with you and that you haven't missed a beat!

About: My goal is to create an environment and relationship that makes your life easier and your pup happier. I’m loving, gentle, and patient with all pup ages! I’m available any day of the week. I just ask for a 2 day notice for booking and for canceling. For walks, preferably early morning or evenings (especially in hot days. I want your pup to enjoy their walk, and not be uncomfortable or in pain from the hot pavement) I appreciate your consideration! I adapt to what your puppy is used to. My goal is not to brake their routine. I would like to jump in where you need me to assist and maintain the routine you approve and would like to maintain. I’m here to help you both!

“Very friendly, my dog liked Brianna right away and was really excited for his walk. He came back really happy. We will continue to use for dog walking and pet sitting.”

About: I'm patient, genuine, kind, and highly empathetic to animals. If there's a cat or dog in the street, I am capturing it and making sure it gets taken care of. I have experience with kittens, puppies, senior dogs, big dogs, playful cats, scaredy cats, and everything in-between. Owning over 10 animals in my own lifetime, and taking care of many others, I am confident in my ability to care for pets of any kind. I work from home only 3 days per week. I can work from my laptop. I have a highly flexible schedule that keeps me at home and able to be present. I can go for breaks or walks whenever, even on work days, as my work load is usually very light. I am available most weekends. I always am respectful, calm, and alert when it comes to taking care of animals. I am very clean, organized, and detail-oriented. I am very thorough and use my gut and instinct to make decisions. I try to get in tune with whichever animal I am with, listening to their specific needs.

“Kristine was very responsive and professional. She deftly navigated a situation that arose while keeping me informed and staying cool. Will definitely reach out to her again.”

“Michelle is amazing! She is so comfortable and skilled with dogs, that I felt totally fine leaving my two young/very active dogs with her to look after. I will absolutely be using her moving forward!! And personally the convenience of her being so close to where I live is the best added bonus! Our plans also changed a couple times and she was so flexible and made it all work.”

About: I’ve lived and grown up with pets, and I’ve taken care of them throughout my life. My friends and family have always come to me to look after their pets, and I’m always happy to do it because I get so much positive energy from them I’m a product designer, and right now I’m living alone while looking for new opportunities in my field. Since I have plenty of free time, I’d love to spend it with these little angels. I’m totally available at the moment Pets are like my children, and I always do my best for them. I used to have a little dog that I loved dearly, and I know how much love, care, and happiness I can share with them.

“Peggy was great! Super easy going and mellow. She was easy to communicate with and coordinate schedules. And was a good match for my slightly timid dog. Highly recommend!”

Sarah T.

“Sean is absolutely fantastic with my two borzois, Spartacus and Diego! From the very first walk, he showed a calm confidence and genuine care that immediately put both dogs—and me—at ease. Borzois can be a bit particular, but Sean handles them with patience, professionalism, and a great sense of humor. He’s always punctual, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure the boys get a full, enriching walk every time. I’ve noticed how excited they get when he arrives, which says it all. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend Sean to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”

About: I’ve been working with pets for the past 4 years gaining lots of experience moving around from shelters and clinic. However my never ending love for animals started at a very young age. I’ve worked with kittens in animal shelters feeding and cleaning after all the cats. I grew up in a dog loving home and gained lots of experience when it comes to loving and working with dogs. I also had guinea pigs as a kid and absolutely loved them! I also got really into aquariums and had quite a couple of fresh water fish. I currently have a dog and a cat and a flock of backyard chickens so it’s safe to say I’m a big animal lover 😄 I love being around animals so much so that I am currently going to school to become a veterinary technician. I hope to build on my experience and meet lots of furry babies along the way! I have a dog and cat of my own, as well as chickens who I love to the ends if the earth! I’ve raised my cat since he was 4 weeks old and now he is a happy boy at the age of 3 years old! I spend so much time playing with him as well as cuddling! In the mornings I take my dog on a walk around the block before it gets to warm out! She does love to sunbathe so we also spend plenty of hours outdoors! On top of this, working with my sister, I work with many pups outside of my own from walks, to fetch, or even just relaxing together! I will care for your pets as if they are my own. I know being in a familiar environment is a more comfortable way to provide care, so I do the most possible to maintain that same comfort by keeping everything on schedule, whether that is play time, walks, feeding, litter scooping, or medications if needed. I take my time to bond with your pets at their pace, from shy cats to energy filled pups. I will send constant updates of your pets and keep you informed of all their dilly dally. The connection between owner and sitter is just as important as the one your pet and I develop! So even if it’s a random day or hour and you have a silly or cute picture you’d like to share, I’d love to see them!

About: Although newer to Rover, I've been dog sitting for years and have cared for dogs and other animals most of my life. I volunteer weekly at a local animal sanctuary where I care for many different kinds of animals. Having always been a Dog Mom, I have house trained Pekingese, Lab, Rottweiler, English Mastiff, as well as pound puppies so I feel comfortable with all dog breeds and love every minute with them. Day care or overnights available 7 days a week - can pick up /drop off locally for small fee. Same day availability is also an option. I have a large fenced in yard with a pool . Pool is open for dogs to swim. Dogs would sleep indoors at night time.

About: Growing up I’ve always had a love for animals! From the biggest to smallest little guys! Their happiness, health, and comfort is always my priority! Im currently a full time nursing student so I have free time to go for walks and take care of your special fur baby! I love animals and enjoy caring for them! In my home I have a big fenced back yard where your dogs can get sun and play time! Free to roam in safe environment!

“Liana treats my dog buddy like her own! He loves spending time with her and she goes above and beyond to make sure he has a great time :) highly recommend!”

“Margarita was amazing!!! We went on vacation for a week and had her walk our dog twice a day. She kept us in the loop and provided us with picture, videos, on each walk which I loved. While we were away, our housesitter had to leave a couple of times, and Margarita was able to work with the information we gave her last minute and returned our dog safely inside the house. I would highly recommend Margarita!!!”

“Amanda is amazingly kind and has been great with my dog! She gives great updates after every walk and gives him love and attention every time! Im so lucky to have her!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life — from my own two dogs and cat to my mom’s three dogs, and even my mother-in-law’s pets (two dogs, a cat, a lizard, and a small garden of chickens I help watch every summer!). Neighbors and friends have trusted me for years to walk, feed, and care for their pets when they’re busy or traveling. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs, and I make sure every animal feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I am a second-year teaching student with online classes. I have open availability and can be very flexible to make it work. Pretty much 24/7 😉 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routine, keep walks safe and on-leash, double-check doors and gates, and give plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. I send regular photo updates so you can feel confident they’re happy and cared for. At my home, pets enjoy a large, fully fenced backyard divided into two areas — one for play and potty breaks, and another with a big pool where dogs are welcome to swim if they enjoy the water. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, entertained, and loved whether they’re with me or in their own home.
