“Kyle is the best! He is great with my pup and she loves going in walks with him. He is always on time and has been able to be flexible with last minute changes.”

“Josie has walked by somewhat cantankerous pup Rudy a few times now and she's done wonderful job. She takes him on 30 minute walks, walks him on time, and he is always in a great mood after I return from work. She's very responsive and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend her!”

“Arianna was amazing. She took care of Lexi so well. Honestly this was my first time using Rover and I was nervous. Arianna but those nerves to rest. She is patient and kind and diligent and she went above and beyond to care for my pup while I was out of town. I Will definitely be booking her again!”

“Emma was absolutely amazing! She was so sweet, trustworthy, and reliable. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Emma for helping walk my doggie on such short notice while I was working long shifts. Max loved you so much! I will definitely be booking with you again!!”

“I needed some help walking my dog due to an injury. Jojo was able to help on short notice. She’s friendly and reliable. My dogs a little shy around new people, but was clearly happy to see her after a couple days. If he’s happy I’m happy 😊 😸”


“Emily was the perfect person to walk our dog and I wanted to write a review that expressed our sincere appreciation for taking such wonderful care of our dog. He can be a bit aggressive around other dogs, and your experience as a dog owner truly showed in how skillfully you managed him. We felt comfortable at ease knowing he was in your capable hands and we truly value your watchful eyes and control you maintained. Thank you again for being so reliable and understanding of our dog’s special needs.”

About: I have always been a dog dad and every single one of my dogs have been my furry best friends. From poop scooping and fun runs to play wrestling, it’s always a good time. I already take my pup out super early in the morning every day and would love to help yours get that energy out every morning. Sometimes the fun time can get a little too fun. So being able to show and teach a stop or a place is very important. And having your pup know when it’s okay to do certain things and when it’s not is vital.
“My dog is very strong and very excitable. Will run After bikes, skateboards, and scooters, or try to play with strangers by biting their pant leg, which doesn’t always get a good reaction. When Katherine walks my dog, she makes me feel much safer and I’m control of the walks. I would absolutely use Katherine as a walker again. Reliable, friendly, funny, and responsible. She’s pretty great.”

“Look no further for the best dog walker! My senior dog Toby absolutely adores her walks with Luba. I've seen a real difference in Toby’s happiness and energy levels since they started. She is very reliable, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. Knowing Toby is in such capable and caring hands gives me complete peace of mind. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: Hi there! I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life — cats since before I can remember and dogs since I was five. Over the years I’ve cared for pets of all sizes, from tiny lap dogs to big adventure buddies. I’ve also spent time fostering, pet sitting, and learning about animal behavior and training, which really deepened my understanding of what makes each pet unique. I’m currently an online psychology student, so I spend most of my days at home and have a very flexible schedule. That means I can give your pet plenty of attention, care, and consistency — whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I’m dependable, patient, and genuinely love getting outside to explore with dogs (or just enjoy quiet time with cats). Every animal deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood — and that’s exactly what I’ll make sure of while they’re with me. ❤️ I’m currently studying psychology through online, asynchronous courses. So, my schedule is very flexible and I am happy to work around whatever your needs may be. If your animal just needs someone to keep them company, I can take my work with me, but I’m also happy to leave it at home if they need more interactive care. When I care for pets in their own home, my main goal is to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all of the owner’s instructions closely — from feeding times and walk routes to favorite toys and sleeping spots — so your pet feels safe and at ease while you’re away. I always make sure pets get plenty of attention, affection, and playtime, and I keep things tidy and respectful in your space. You can expect regular updates and photos so you know exactly how your furry friend is doing. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just the way you left it.
About: I’ve cared for pets professionally and I have a German Shepherd of my own, so I understand the daily care, attention, and love pets need to stay happy and healthy. Owning a large, high-energy dog has taught me how to handle strong breeds with confidence and patience. What sets me apart is my ability to connect with pets of all personalities — from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’m experienced with basic training for young dogs, like leash manners and simple commands, and I know how to provide extra comfort and care for older pets who may need a slower pace or special attention. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m available Friday through Sunday, and those days are fully devoted to pet sitting. I plan my schedule around giving pets the best care possible. I maintain each pet’s normal schedule for meals, walks, and rest to reduce stress while you’re away. I’m attentive, tidy, and respectful of your home. Pets receive consistent, safe, and loving care in a calm, dependable environment.
About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my unparalleled experience and genuine love for dogs, cultivated over 35 years of dedicated care! From raising puppies to caring for elderly dogs, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every pet sitting assignment. My experience allows me to confidently administer medications, provide specialized care, and handle any situation that may arise with patience and compassion. Beyond my skills, Im a huge dog-lover! Ive had dogs since the day I was born and can't imagine life without one! I treat each dog as if they were my own. With me, your beloved dog will not only receive wonderful care, but will also experience the warmth and affection of a true dog lover, making their stay with me an unforgettable and very happy experience :) I work from home, so I'm very flexible. I can watch your dog at my house, take your dog on walks, or house sit at your place during the day. I live in a house. I have a fenced in yard. I also have a pool and grassy areas for your dog to do their business. I also have a Belgian Malinois who is so loving and playful and loves other dogs! I'm also a mom of 9 year old twins who LOVE dogs :)
About: I’ve been dog sitting for the past 8 years and grew up with 2 dogs. I’ve taken care of pups of all ages as well as pups with medical issues. I have even lived with a family during Covid and took care of their dogs. 🐶 I’m happy to water any plants too :) Looking forward to meeting you. I work part time and make time for frequent walks and play time. It’s easy for me to make my schedule work for the pups needs :) If there are any preferences or ways you’ve trained your pup for their daily routine I am more than happy to abide by those rules that you’ve set in place. I’m typically home reading a book for my book club, writing or studying for a gig or class. So I will have plenty of time to play and take care of your pup. I typically will ask about any preferences on where your pup sleeps, how much outside time they need, if you need me to crate them, or any thing that will make your fur baby feel secure and happy.
About: I have always taken care of pets, either my own or others, as long as I can remember. I pride myself in offering a fun, clean, safe and loving home for your fur~kids and I promise to return their unconditional love every time! Pet care is my full-time business and I am available on a daily basis, including weekends and holidays. My schedule gets full quickly, and therefore I require advance notice to care for your fur~kids. Safety is my utmost priority and therefore I am highly attentive to your fur~kids inside and outside my home. I also ensure that when they are outside in an unfenced yard, they are leashed at all times!
About: I have taken care of pets (dogs, flying squirrels, cats, fishes, etc.) via Rover and/or through friends over the past eight years. I have been a dog walker, pet sitter, and volunteer at shelters for over the past six and a half years. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and puppies. Initially started sitting to deal with anxiety, now I thoroughly enjoy meeting and connecting with our small friends. I recently moved back to Los Angeles, but I have clients have been in New York and Boston. I have a lot of time on my hands because I work part time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your animals aka fur babies. (Let me know if you need financial accommodations as well)! Thank you! I work part time and have scheduled times around sitting, walking, or feeding clients pets. Also, I live relatively close to a park which allows for walks and room for play/ interaction with other furry-friends. I also prioritize getting a routine structured for our furry friends, so they feel comfortable with the change. It also helps the owners feel at ease. I like to know if your dog has allergies or doesn’t like certain animals and all that jazz. I create fun routine (which is based on dogs needs) to ensure a mentally and physically stimulating experience. I take all that information into consideration as I prioritze the pets comfort and owners trust.

About: Hello, I have been rescuing dogs and training dogs since I was a child. I guess you could say I love dogs more than people. I currently have an adorable 12 year old Maltipoo rescue, and a 1 year old “foster fail” poodle/yorkie/chihuahua mix. I have dogsat for several people in the past, and have two families I dog and house sit for on a normal basis. I also foster for a local small dog rescue “Tobie’s Small Dog Rescue”, and have had more than 60 fosters through them. I love animals more than people to be honest. My pups are loving and sweet and they love to make new friends, and will love your pup. I love animals, and would love the opportunity to watch your little loved one. Rest assured, if you book through me, your fur baby will always be safe, loved and cared for. Giving you peace of mind. Thank you, Kelsie I work in the entertainment industry, so when I’m not on set I’m working from home primarily. So always have the time for the most part. I have a dog park at my residence and plenty of space for them to run and have fun. A little doggy neighborhood with even our own dog walking group of neighbors.

Tamara has been great at walking my two dogs. One is 6 months and is full of energy and the other is 13 years and low key. Tamara has been able to walk both at the same time and she gives them a full walk. She’s done awesome and the dogs took to her right away. She’s a great hire!
Zazie is the most responsible, caring, qualified and easy to work with sitter. Her being an artist who works from home makes her flexible and communicative. The first time she walked my dog it was a last minute request she responded to right away, which was a lifesaver. Not only is she constantly aware of my dog's needs with walking, feeding, watering and medication, she offers me updates via photos and texts in which he seemed to be having a fantastic time, which can be rare for him due to his anxious personality. Thank you Zazie! Will book again and again.
