“This review is long overdue for Rose! Shes the best Rover sitter! She has watched my two beloved fur babies Millie and Penny so many times, often available for same day bookings., which is amazing bc my schedule can be quite unpredictable. She’s a great communicator and always sends photos and updates. I’d recommend her completely!”

“Guadalupe was a reliable, punctual, attentive, and altogether great pet sitter to our kitty! Our cat had recently been spayed and needed medication applied to her incision site, which Guadalupe diligently did each day. Upon our request, Guadalupe even turned off some of our outdoor lights when it was raining. 5/5 stars! We would highly recommend Guadalupe for all of your pet sitting needs!”

“Anna was wonderful and extremely communicative taking care of our two cats while we were away. She provided so much piece of mind. Would absolutely recommend.”


About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life and love working with both dogs and cats of all personalities. I grew up with three dogs—two rescues (including a foster we ended up keeping) and one puppy—and regularly handled their care, including walks, feeding, and playtime. I’ve also been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since middle school, so I’m very comfortable stepping into different routines and making pets feel at ease. I’m especially experienced with cats. I raised two stray kittens growing up—one I helped bottle-feed—and in college I fostered a very shy, formerly stray cat. With patience and consistency, he became incredibly affectionate and is now my own cat who sleeps next to me every night. I pay close attention to body language and always respect each pet’s boundaries, whether they’re energetic, anxious, or need a little extra time to warm up. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m very responsive, reliable, and happy to send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!

I’m available most weekdays and weekends, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I’m available for walks and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine. While I’m not available for overnight stays, I’m very flexible during the day and can accommodate multiple visits if needed. I’m also very responsive and happy to help with last-minute requests when possible. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize safety, routine, and making pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I take time to understand each pet’s needs, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any specific instructions. I’m very attentive to body language and behavior, especially with shy or anxious pets, and I always respect their boundaries. I make sure doors, gates, and harnesses are secure at all times during walks and visits. I treat every home with care and respect, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and well cared for.

About: About Me: I pet-sit in my apartment located near downtown Inglewood, however I am willing to travel and take care of your pets at home for a convenient and hassle-free experience. I'm available during the day and evening. Unfortunately, I'm unable to take care of dogs that experience separation anxiety by barking, chewing, whining or that are not house-trained. It's important to me that your pet has a wonderful time and that you feel comfortable leaving your dog in my care. Your pet will be treated like a member of my own family- with attention, room to roam, TLC and PLAY TIME! They'll have a sweet companion to play with and cuddle with. Book today! Experience: I have over 14 years of experience caring for dogs. I have experience taking care of puppies, adult and senior dogs. I have experience potty training and minor behavioral training. I have experience administering oral medication as well as experience working with pets recovering from surgical procedures. I also have experience bathing and grooming small dogs. My first dog was a Rottweiler and he was a handful. He taught me responsibility and how to care for a pet with special needs. I adopted my second dog from a kill shelter in North Carolina and my life has only changed for the better. She required orthopedic surgery at age 2 which provided opportunities for me to learn and improve on administering care, post-surgery, as well as administering oral medications. Meet Marley: I have one pup named Marley. She's a Chihuahua-Beagle mix, 14 years old, spayed, and 25lbs. She's super chill, quiet and keeps to herself. She plays well with and gets along with other dogs. She enjoys lounging and is up to date on her shots. She's able to adjust well to guest dogs. I take her for long walks in the park in my neighborhood. What to bring: Please bring anything and everything that will make your pup's stay the most comfortable.

South Los Angeles pet parents share their Rover experiences
Anna is amazing and very communicative throughout our trip. She even helped brainstorm one of our cat's reluctance to eat due to unknown separation anxiety while we were away, which made a stressful situation much easier. If you have multiple cats with difficult personalities or medication needs, she is your sitter!!!
Angela is GREAT! I was nervous to leave my elderly cat while on a work trip, and she eased all of my concerns. She reliably checked in during the same time window every day and sent reassuring updates and adorable pictures. I’ll definitely be booking Angela again!

There is a reason that we keep booking Sarah and it is because she is amazing with Zilla. Zilla has some medical issues and we can trust that she is in good hands when Sarah comes to visit. She provides insightful and meaningful updates, which puts us at ease when we are away.

Genesis did a great job with both of my cats! One of my cats is very shy, but Genesis did manage to get him to come out to have his dinner. She also did a great job with my more outgoing kitty. Overall, I’m really happy with her visit, will definitely book again!
Woah i cannot recommend Charley more. She was simply the best. Truly. She was so attentive and responsive and so good with the boys. She even got some pics of my scared guy which i was so surprised about. She was able to adjust as necessary and follow some complicated directions when the litter box broke etc. I hope she comes back again. My one guy Steve typically gets sick from stress when i come home from a trip… and he didn’t this time. So crazy. It’s because of her!!

Guadalupe was a reliable, punctual, attentive, and altogether great pet sitter to our kitty! Our cat had recently been spayed and needed medication applied to her incision site, which Guadalupe diligently did each day. Upon our request, Guadalupe even turned off some of our outdoor lights when it was raining. 5/5 stars! We would highly recommend Guadalupe for all of your pet sitting needs!
