“Kyle was very responsible and gave Brutus a good walk. He came when he was scheduled and I am very appreciative of his professionalism. Thanks Kyle”

About: I had the pleasure of growing up alongside the most wonderful mix of animals, including dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, a rat, a chinchilla, a hedge hog, fish, chickens, ducks, horses, goats, a pigeon, quails, and even a peacock! My parents showed me the ropes of pet care long ago when they started a horse boarding stable and their own Rover pet sitting service. I joined them on many dog walks, cat visits, and pet feedings, enjoying the time we got to share with so many animals. I now own two beautiful guinea pigs named Bob and Teddy that definitely border on spoiled in their luxury pig oasis. I personally can't imagine life without the joy pets bring us, and I want to make sure your pets get the same love you give them when you're away! I currently run an Etsy shop out of my apartment, so I am always able to quickly get to your pets as needed. I am free to fit the schedule of your pets to ensure their normal feedings and play times remain untouched when you're away. Since I already commonly work on the weekends for my shop, I have no problem getting the chance to care for your pet any day of the week. I will follow the instructions you leave for your pet to follow with care. As someone who knows animals, I know their routines are vital to their comfort. I will happily let pets out in a fenced yard, go for walks, and feed to their needed schedule. I'm also very willing to care for a variety of pets! The less common Rover clients deserve love and care, too!

“Just wonderful; the dog is happy, and so are we.”

About: Need a trustworthy sitter for your furry friend? I offer drop-in visits and walks that include feeding, fresh water, and plenty of playtime. I’m an observant and patient caregiver who treats every dog like my own. I have experience with both small and large breeds. I also have experience with other animals including fish, birds, rodents and reptiles. As an all around animal lover you can count on me to treat your best friend with love and respect. I am currently working part-time from home in the Sherman Oaks area. My schedule generally is flexible as long as I am given enough notice. I treat every drop-in visit as an opportunity to make your pet feel loved and secure while you’re away. I start by checking your pet’s wellbeing and temperament, followed by their scheduled feeding and fresh water. I love getting to know each pet's unique personality.

About: As dog owners ourselves, we believe in a simple principle: we won't do anything for your dog that we wouldn't do for our own. During the time they're with us, we treat them as if they were our own, with full attention and care. What makes our care different is that your dog gets the attention of two people, not one! Both my spouse and I work from home, so there's always someone around for companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. We also know LA life can be unpredictable, so having two of us means we're able to stay flexible and work around your schedule whenever possible. As a clinical psychologist with a background in behavioral psychology, plus hands-on experience having personally adopted and trained a rescue dog, I understand dogs' needs on a deeper level, from anxiety and attachment to motivation and habit-building. Over the years caring for dogs across LA, we've worked with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities, including dogs with picky eating, excessive barking, or high energy levels, and tailor our approach to each dog's individual needs. We always welcome a meet & greet before booking! There's a large, quiet park right by our home where we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure everyone feels comfortable. **First time clients please enjoy $20 off your first booking!** https://www.rover.com/sit/chanwl43421 Schedule Both my spouse and I work from home, so we're available for care any day of the week! Weekdays and weekends alike. This also gives us a lot of flexibility with pick-up and drop-off times, and we're happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need a quick daycare visit or long-term boarding, we'd love to help. Safety, trust & environment In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play, and with two of us around, dogs are never left unattended! You'll get regular check-ins and updates so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands. I follow your dog's routine closely and keep safety top of mind, whether it's leash rules on walks, feeding instructions, or respecting boundaries around other pets (We have three playpens! on hand, so we can easily section off space when needed). Our back patio is fully fenced, so dogs can enjoy off-leash time to run and play safely. We've made sure there's nothing sharp or hazardous back there, and we clean up after every potty break and hose down the area to keep it fresh and sanitary. Neighborhood dogs stop by for potty breaks too, so it's also a great spot for your pup to socialize. Being a typical Asian household, we don't wear shoes inside and that same care extends to keeping things clean for your pup! We vacuum 3-4 times a day, wash food and water bowls after every use, and wipe down paws with baby wipes (dog-wipes on request!) after walks.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of affection. I always focus on keeping dogs safe, happy, and relaxed while their owners are away, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m fully available on weekends from Friday evenings to Monday mornings and can provide consistent care, regular walks, feeding, and supervision. Great for dogs who need extra attention or routine. I’ll customize my schedule perfectly to fit your needs 🐾 I aim to create a safe, clean, and loving environment where dogs feel at home. I keep a close eye on behavior, energy levels, and comfort, and I never leave dogs unattended in unsafe situations. I treat every dog with patience and respect, just like I would my own.

About: My name is Nichole, I am 31 years old, I live in Sherman Oaks, and I’d love to help you walk your dog! I grew up with pets and have always been an animal lover. In college, I was a program director and event planner for a community service club called Poly Paws in which we would plan and support functions including crafting pet toys at the senior center and volunteering at Petco. If you need someone to help you walk your dog a few times a week (or need a quick drop-by), I’m available! I treat dogs like family, no matter what type of dog. I am energetic, attentive, personable, and I will always be willing to take your dog out to walk and play!

About: My love of dogs began with the Doberman and Springer Spaniel’s, I grew up with. Eight years ago, I rescued and rehabilitated the best girl and terrier mix, Lottie. Since then, we have rescued and trained a mini poodle, fostered and rehabbed two adult pups, and regularly sit and walk a Lab, German Shepard, and Dachshund. I currently work from home and for myself so I have a very flexible schedule. I have a fenced in backyard and plenty of room for pups to run, relax, or play! I have a completely fenced in backyard and one very friendly female dog. I always error on the safe side when it comes to car. No dogs left unsupervised when needed nor put in harms way while walking, etc.

“I booked Lindsay last minute to help my sister with her doggies after surgery made getting them out for walks tough. Lindsay was a great communicator and was super helpful. The dogs were well taken care of and loved their walks. Thanks so much Lindsay!”

About: Hello! I am Kelly & I’m a HUGE animal lover. I have a pup of my own, Sandy. She’s a loving & sweet Maltipoo. I’ve had her since she was only 1 month old & she’s turning 4yrs in late September. Ever since I’ve adopted her, she’s turned my life around in the best way possible. She has made me a dog mom & I wouldn’t want it any other way. She’s very well trained & behaved which is something I’m really proud of. She’s made so many other fur friends & they have play dates very often to help socialize & exercise. These fur friends are pups that I also pup sit whenever my neighbors are out of town, have to go into work, or an emergency suddenly comes up. One of my neighbors has 3 dogs in total & my other neighbors only have 1 dog. My neighbor with 3 dogs has 1 senior pup, 1 adult pup, and 1 2yrs old pup. The senior pup does take medication so whenever I pup sit, I ensure her medication is given to her with no problem. My other neighbors with the 1 pup on the other hand, have a very energetic pup so playtime & walks are crucial. I ensure to take him on long walks around our neighborhood & give him lots of playtime with Sandy - which always ends up in nap time. Looking after them truly brings so much joy to my life & I am very thankful for their parents (my neighbors) trust in me to pup sit their fur babies. I hope I can also gain your trust to pup sit your fur baby. I promise you won’t regret it! 🥰🐾 I currently work from home and have a very flexible schedule which is super convenient to fit in lots of dedication & playtime with your fur baby. I have a fenced front yard at my building complex (which is dog friendly) and most of my neighbors have dogs which are friendly and well behaved. Inside my home I have peed pads for any accidents that may occur & lots of space for comfort.

“Ashton and his partner were super friendly, set up a great meet and greet and seem like great folks to work with. Had him come take our little boy for a walk and it helped us tremendously”

About: I have over 15 years of experience caring for dogs for multiple families. My experience includes both drop-in visits and overnight house sitting, allowing pets to remain comfortable in their own homes and routines. I have cared for dogs of various breeds, sizes, and personalities, providing feeding, walks, playtime, medication when needed, and plenty of attention and companionship. I work full-time, so I only accept pet care bookings on my days off or after I’m done with work for the day. This helps me ensure that every pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I keep my Rover calendar updated so owners can see when I’m available. I believe pets are happiest when their usual routine is maintained, so I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule and preferences. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medication, and bedtime routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure while their owner is away. I also provide plenty of attention, companionship, and updates so owners can have peace of mind. My goal is to create a safe, calm, and positive experience for every pet while treating both the pet and the home with respect.

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: Hello! I am Maryssa and I am the biggest dog lover, I have never met a dog that I did not immediately fall in love with. I have had animals my whole life, growing up my friends called our house a mini zoo (we had 3 dogs, 2 cats, 3 rabbits, 2 tortoises, 2 birds, 2 fish, and a frog). Since elementary school, each pet of mine was my responsibility. I have been walking my dogs, cleaning up after them, playing with them, and cuddling with them for as long as I can remember. In elementary school and jr. high many of my neighbors would ask me to dog sit when they would go out of town. I have had animals my whole life so I know to take direction from them. I will never pet a dog without asking and will always respect their boundaries. I promise to love your dog and to respect your house rules.

“Kathryn is the best!!!”

“I would give Lub a 100 stars if that was an option. She is reliable, flexible, helpful, professional and above all nice. My dog and I are very fortunate to have met Luba. Thank you.”

About: I’ve watched and taken care of dogs and cats since I was very little. From family to neighbors to friends, I’m the one they called! I’m not the type of person to just ignore your pet for money. I really love creating a welcoming relationship and allowing them to be comfortable at all costs, and of course have so much fun while their parents are gone. I know exactly what it takes to give them the love they deserve and need. Think of me as the cool cousin or uncle lol. Play dates, treats, walks, snuggles; all of the above! I’m your guy. Let alone, I’m extremely respectful and conscious about leaving the space cleaner than when I arrived, and following ALL of the rules set in place for my job. I prioritize professionalism and leaving my boss nothing short of happy as leaving their children can be stressful. Whether that’s constant check ins, pictures, or recaps, I can meet any and all expectations happily! :) Right now I am currently unemployed and giving my all to music. That said, I have built a mobile studio and really just work on records all day! That said, I am still attentive, at home, and will always invite my doggy or any other’s to come catch a vibe and listen! I have a fenced backyard and the sweetest golden doodle of all time to keep your pet additional loving company. Play time to movie nights, I do it all with my best friend and we aren’t stingy about adding company!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats and almost any other animal that you can think of since I was 9 years old. My family and I have always prioritized pets and animals because they bring so much joy into everyday life, as well as I still a sense of care and responsibility for others from a young age. I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to walk, drop in, or dog sit for an entire weekend if needed. I am also happy to look after more than one animal at a time. I care for all of my pets by treating them like they are part of my own family. I will ensure their safety if we are out on a walk, and prioritize their needs if I am taking care of them for a few days.

About: Hi! I'm Andrea, a Sherman Oaks local, mom, and lifelong animal lover who's been around dogs and cats my whole life (including the two cats currently running my home). I know what it means to hand your pet off to someone and hope for the best, and I want to be the person you never have to worry about. I offer 30 and 60 minute dog walks, dog drop-in visits, and cat drop-in visits for pets who need a little company and attention during the day. Every visit includes a photo update and a quick note about how your pet did. I know that stuff matters when you're at work wondering how they're doing! I keep my client list intentionally small so I can give every animal real attention, not just a rushed loop around the block or a quick bowl refill. Meet-and-greets are always included before we get started; I want to make sure it's a good fit for your pet, not just a booking. I'm based in Sherman Oaks and cover the surrounding Valley neighborhoods. If you're looking for someone consistent, reliable, and genuinely invested in your pet's wellbeing, I'd love to connect! I keep my client list small and intentional, which means your pet is never an afterthought in a packed day. Visits are scheduled with enough buffer time so I'm never rushed and your pet gets my full attention, not a quick check-in between back-to-back bookings. When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same care I'd want someone to show mine. I follow your instructions closely, make sure doors and gates are secure, and never cut a visit short. For dog walks, I use your pet's own leash and equipment unless you prefer otherwise, and I stay aware of the environment around us like other dogs, traffic, anything that could affect your pet's safety. For cat drop-ins, I move calmly through your space, make sure food, water, and litter are taken care of, and spend real time with your cat rather than just completing a checklist.
