House Sitting In Shadow Hills

“10/10 will ask Dylan back! He stayed in my home for the weekend with my very energetic heeler, cared for my two cats and also took great care of the garden! He also took the time to offer some training help with my dog, which is much needed and appreciated. All around he knows animals and genuinely cares for them which made me feel at ease leaving them all for a few days.”

“This is the second time Katherine housesat for our dog and she was great! Our dog is anxious and reactive to strangers so we had Katherine come for a few drop ins beforehand so our dog could get used to her. She was very patient with him and got him to trust her. During her housesit, she sent us very frequent updates and communicated well. She left our apartment very organized and even washed the bedsheets she used! Would definitely recommend and book her again.”

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: I grew up with dogs and a bird in my home. I took care of neighborhood pets including ferrets, cats, and frogs, and have been caring for animals for my whole life. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I'm happy to take care of animals during the day and in the evenings on weekdays. I take care of my dog Juniper every day as well, but she is comfortable on her own, in case I need to leave her at home and care for another pet. I have a 15ish pound chihuahua mix (Juniper) that gets along well with other dogs. We have a decent sized yard, with a section of that fenced in. We live right next to a small hiking trail, and Juniper and I will walk up on there every day unless the rain makes it too muddy to climb. If your dog is an outdoorsy type and likes horses, (we live right by a ranch) we'll have a nice time taking the trail. We also have several rooms in the house and can section off dogs as needed.

“Yoo Jee was so great with my kitty! She sent daily updates with photos and left my house exactly how I left it. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats pretty much my whole life and have taken care of dogs for friends and family for years. I’m really comfortable around different types of dogs and understand how to read their behavior and approach them in a calm, respectful way. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and well looked after. I’ve always been around pets growing up, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my routine. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I regularly help friends and family by taking care of theirs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it and make it a consistent part of my daily and weekly schedule whenever the opportunity comes up. At the moment, I’m not able to host animals at my place of residence. I’m hoping that changes soon so I can incorporate pet care more into my daily routine, but for now I’m happy to provide care in your home.

About: Lifelong dog lover, lifelong dog owner, 6 year Tujunga resident and 20 year Burbank resident. Kind, friendly, patient and responsible. I look after all dogs as if they're my own. Pint sized Chihuahuas, 200 pound Mastiffs and everyone in between, no problem. You can trust your dog will be cared for with all your details and instructions followed, as if you were right there in-person. I also have experience and affection for elderly and injured dogs who need extra patience and care. I'm currently available any day of the week for walks and drop-in visits, and always happy to implement any training you'd like your dog to be working on. I look forward to hearing from you, thanks! My furry friend Kodi and I have been together 12 years. We walk every morning & evening, we enjoy naps together when possible, and we play as much as I feel is safe for his age. Always on a leash unless the yard or park is enclosed and safe for off-leash, and always avoiding interactions with other dogs if something doesn’t feel right.

“Hannah is such a reliable and kind animal-lover, I feel 100% confidence leaving my four cats in her care, even if three of them are kittens and it's a bit of a rambunctious household at the moment. She was super communicative and quick to respond. She also left the house possibly cleaner than I had left it, so that was supremely appreciated after returning home from a busines trip. I recommend her wholeheartedly and hope to be able to book her again for future trips!”

“If you’re reading this and considering booking Margarita to care for your dog I highly recommend!!! I was extremely nervous using rover (my first ever booking was with her) and for my little puppy but the second she walked into my apartment I felt at ease and how much she loved dogs! She sent me so many photos and videos. She followed all directions and she even got my puppy to use his grass pad which he is stubborn with :) she even cleaned up his toys so my house looked more organized when I got home. I feel lucky to have found her and will be booking again!”

Amanda M.

“This was the second time ever leaving my dog with someone and I was so blessed to have gotten Niki as a sitter. So grateful she available on Halloween and that she provided the absolute best care. She sent me over a dozen pics and I couldn’t be more thankful! 🙏🏼”

Doris M.

“Prescilla was amazing! She watched my husky Bella for a week on short notice and was timely, kept me updated on her arrival / departure, I came home to a clean house and when my flight was delayed she was more then willing to stay longer if needed. Definitely my new go to sitter :)”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments for several years through friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and keeping pets on their normal routines. I have experience with both high energy pets and more relaxed or senior animals, and I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. I’m very attentive, patient, and treat every pet like my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop in visits, walks, and sitting on both weekdays and weekends. I can adjust to your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets are secure at all times. I’m attentive to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I provide regular updates so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I’ve had pets in my home since I was a baby. I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, gerbils, and even hermit crabs. I love animals! I grew up with 3 cats in one home and 7 in another. Two of my cats lived to be over 20 years old, and my current cat is 19. I love senior kitties and have plenty of experience giving them shots and other types of medication. For cats I offer feeding/watering, litter cleaning, basic grooming, play, company, and medication administering. I also have experience with small and medium-sized dogs such as toy poodles and pugs. For dogs I offer walking, feeding/watering, basic grooming, play, and company. I’m currently between jobs so I have plenty of time for drop-in visits and dog-walking throughout the day. I prefer morning and evening visits but can also do mid-day if needed. I treat your fur babies with the utmost care and love, as if they were my own. If anything seems out of the ordinary, rest assured I will contact you and take the necessary action to keep your baby safe.

“Michelle was great! It was my first time with Rover, and she was patient and helped me with errors I had made. She also went above and beyond. I was booking last minute, and she went out of her way to do a meet and greet before the dog sitting date. She also asked to take the dog on a short walk, even though she didn’t have to. Would definitely book again with her.”

“Emily was AMAZING! She was super communicative and sent so many cute pics of our pups while we were away. We felt super confident having her take care of Chico and Winston and would definitely book her again 🙂 She also went above and beyond to leave the house better than we left it which we super appreciated!”

About: I’ve cared for my own family dog growing up, which taught me daily responsibility, patience, and how to understand a dog’s needs and behavior. I truly love animals and am very attentive, gentle, and reliable when it comes to their care. While I’m newer to pet sitting professionally, I’m committed to providing a safe, loving environment and following all instructions closely to make sure your pet is happy and comfortable. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to care for your pets. I’m available on weekdays after 2 PM and have open availability on weekends. I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of attention, playtime, and care while you’re away I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, exercise, and any special needs. I make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and cared for at all times, and I’ll keep you updated so you have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hello! My name is Xol and I am SO excited and happy to be able to walk/hang out with your pet. The work that I do does not allow time for me to have a pet of my own. I ABSOLUTELY love animals of all kind and love spending time with them. I have been around animals all of my life but have been in the dog/pet/house-sitting business for about 10 years. However, I am very involved in advocating/rescuing animals in my everyday life. As sad as it sounds, volunteering at a shelter would be quite hard on my heart... although I am still thinking about doing it, I would also love to walk dogs ( or cats or any other animal that would love a walk )I look forward to meeting your pet/s and spending time with them! Note* I’m open to negotiating (: I am currently home all day and night so pet would be with me 24 hours a day unless i step away to the store. I DO have a fenced yard BUT your pet companion would be indoors with me unless outside to play or potty. I take them on walks or to the park or both. I am home with your pups and cats most of the day and have a huge yard to play in. When they are here they are treated as family of my own. When I have a pup at home, they are treated as ours. They go everywhere with us if possible, if not they wait at home, inside, with AC if it’s hot. Our tradition has become getting them a steak before they leave for home. ( if pet owner is ok with it ) we love them so much and are always sad to see them go back home haha.

“Audrey was great! We needed a last minute sitter and she was able to help out to watch our puppy. She responded quickly and Pogi had a great time.”

About: For the last 8+ years I have worked in dog kennels, boarding, training and shelter environments. I am focusing on gaining my trainer and/or handler certificate as well as animal CPR care. I am a professional dog walker so it's more than just a side gig for me; I take your dog's health, happiness and safety seriously. My visit to your pets will vary on their needs from just a potty break or feeding to an hour long hike. I am very detail oriented when it comes to communicating what services I have done from what meals or treats given, bowel movements and behavioral updates. I have experience with newborn puppies, elderly pups and reactive dogs. I may suggest a different walking harness or basic training methods if I feel it would be better for your pup; if I feel like I can't safely handle your dog I will do my best to help find a better fit. I am able to take up to 4 dogs in my car if all fit and get along. I love taking them out for hikes or parks but never off leash. I prefer visits no earlier than 8am or later than 6pm, but am willing to work with special requests. Currently serving the San Fernando Valley areas; Burbank, Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Alhambra, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, etc. I currently have a rather open schedule for house visits, potty breaks, play visits, hikes and walks. I can not house any pets in my home but am available for in home pet sittings. I live in Burbank so can go about 20 miles radius depending on the care request. I try to stick with your usual daily schedule to help ease your pet's stress while you're away. I stay with any training requirements and diet restrictions. The only times I leave the home are for other pet care needed around town. I understand how stressful it is finding a new pet care friend and I value your trust more than anything. (Yes I will bring in your mail and packages of course!) I communicate daily with updated photos and texts. My rates are posted due to my years of experience and changing up my own life schedule to accommodate for your needs. I also don't mind taking care of plants too!

“Erin was great! Super communicative throughout the booking which we really appreciated. It was great to get regular updates on how things were going and what they had been up to. We had confidence that our animals were in great hands and we would absolutely book with Erin again!”
