About: I am a friend to all animals!! I'm from Florida so I love all kinds of wildlife and have a big appreciation for nature and love to be outdoors, love to take pets on long walks and go to the beach with them. I've had dogs of varying sizes, from chihuahua to doberman, so I can handle a few different dogs on a walk. I'm fine with any activity level, dogs who like to nap all day or dogs who need to be taken out multiple times. I am also the worlds biggest cat person as I currently am mom to 3 cats, Sasha, Isis, and Frank!! I do absolutely wonderful with cats and am very good at taking care of them and understanding their needs, their boundaries, and their social cues. Not just cats and dogs I've also had bunnies, fish, turtles, and birds as well so my love for animals goes deep. I understand how important they are to us so I would take care of any pet like they are my own. I work from home so I can take care of pets every day. I wake up at 7 am to begin taking care of my cats. I have availabilities 7 days a week. If your pet has a specific routine just fill me in on the details and I will treat them as if they were my own! I live in a home with a backyard and multiple rooms for space for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood where I can walk dogs for miles and miles! If a pet requires any type of specific space, I have room to provide it for them.
“Amanda did a great job cat sitting for our 2 cats. Taking care of feedings, litter box, and spending time interacting with them. She sent us a rover card and pics each day to keep us updated as well. Thanks Amanda!!”
About: I love animals and treat them like my own. I hug them, hold them, kiss and play with them. I previously had hundreds of animals on a farm in Seminole Fl. From ducks, chickens rabbits ,cats and dogs, to goats, pigs, cows and horses. I like to make them happy because it warms my heart and makes me happy! I'm very patient, compassionate, hardworking, trustworthy and loyal to people and pets. If your pet is with me they will be safe and loved. I have been a homecare person for an elderly family member and have taken care of my friends animals when they have gone out of town. They have all said how clean I keep their home, and it looks like it did when they left.
About: I was raised with Dogs of all sizes and owned my own dogs while raising my family. Cats too. Walking Dogs is my expertise as well as loving your pet! I want to bond with your pet so we can have a lasting relationship. I was also raised with cats and would enjoy visiting your cat and spending time with it. Cats have all different personalities so tell me about your cat and their needs. I am currently RETIRED! I am available to walk, feed, interact, play, and love your pet most days prior to 7 PM. I am not able to house your pet due to HOA Restrictions! That is why I want to take care of YOUR pet!! I miss having an animal in my life. I love going to Dog Parks, walking dogs and petting your cats. I am available to administer medicine to your pets if they are ill. I am very open to any instructions and directions you want to give me to keep your family member healthy and happy every day of the week. I will follow the clients instructions as to how they want me to care for their pet in their home or on walks. Client communication.
About: I just lost my 14 year old golden doodle and im looking to have some furry company. Im 65 years old and have had dogs my whole life. *UPDATE* I now have a Goldendoodle that will turn 4 in October His name is Ernie. I work as a caregiver and have no set hours. Depending on when I am needed we can discuss my schedule. Me and Ernie would love to have a furry friend! I have a fenced yard, a new puppy and I’m in a quiet neighborhood. I will take your pet in as if it were my own as you enjoy your time away. I have the perfect work schedule to be able to give your fur baby plenty of love. You will be perfectly comfortable knowing he or she will be in good hands❤️ In my home I will care for your pet as if it were my own. I live on a quiet street and I have a big fenced in backyard.
“We loved Blaize! Deff recommend!! She made sure she asked plenty of important questions, showing that she truly cares for your dog. She texted and sent awesome pics everyday, that kept me at ease. Her personality matched ours which made us feel like we picked our perfect person. Can't wait to see/use her more in the future!”
About: After the loss of my dog due to the neglectful dog sitter —I hope what happened to me never happens to your family! I love supporting others, animals, families, no request too big or too small. I’m here to help you! I have a high quality drink water system for myself and pets that stay at my house. At night, I’m the type of person that puts a leash on the dog before letting them in the backyard. I’m overly cautious and mindful. I work for myself & would love to support other in between clients. After the passing of my dog, I still want to spend time with animals. Sometimes my 10 year old niece comes to visit for the most part it’s just me! Please send me details of what your dog needs for a comfortable stay with me! If your dog is friendly I can bring them with me to work. My rate is affordable, if your dog is an high energy dog there will be an additional charge communicated to reflect the energy spent with your dog. My home is small and clean, I have a small fenced in backyard/ patio, and a normal size front yard that is not fenced. I will refresh the dog water everyday.
“Samantha is amazing. My cat Marilyn was so happy and comfortable, which means everything to me. This was a last-minute booking and she really helped me out in a pinch. I would absolutely book with her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family over the years. I love cats but I love going on walks so excited to meet your furry besties! I work full time but happy to look after your pets after 5pm on weekdays or between 9-3pm on weekends! I love long walks! I have no pets so I can take care of your furry friends. I also have a dog park in my complex for the dogs to have fun!
“The pets love Mary Anna and she did a great job. She went beyond my basic request to just let the dogs out by giving the pets extra attention and play time. Will be using her again!”
“Excellent care and attention! Nastasia is very loving and caring with my Chihuahua Rasta- and I absolutely love getting all the photo and video updates! I can tell my puppy is happy to have her come hang out with her!”
About: I have taken care of animals my entire life as well as been pet sitting 5 years. I have even helped with newborn litters (cutest little things) I can’t wait to play with your pet and make them feel like my own :) I work from home so I’ll have the time to dedicate to your fur baby! We can play and walk and relax. Build fun schedules! I have a fenced in yard to play in. I also am happy to housesit in your home. I will be sure to keep an eye on them at all times.
About: With a background in Search and Recovery (SAR) training, I offer more than just a walk around the block. I’ve spent my life living with and learning from breeds of all shapes and sizes - from the stubborn charm of Bulldogs to the high intelligence of German Shepherds. Whether your dog is a high energy athlete or a puppy still learning the ropes, I provide a structured, safe, and engaging environment. I also specialize in board and trains meaning I understand how to communicate with dogs effectively. I am currently raising my own GSD puppy and managing two cats, so I am an expert at multi-pet household dynamics and “puppy chaos” management. I work from home so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your fur kids! I’m available all day and tend to my own animals all day (and sometimes night) as well. I have a fenced yard and a friendly GSD puppy who can cuddle and play. I have a dedicated “animal room” where your pups crate will go so they can relax after a long day of fun.
About: Hi, I'm Lexi! I've grown up alongside 2-3 dogs, which has inspired my love for any and all animals! I've pet-sat a wide variety of animals (list is below) and have 3 years of experience volunteering at animal shelters. Their happiness is my happiness :) I only pet-sit on days where I'm off from work, so I'll be right there to hang out with your fur babies all day! They can freely roam inside and outside (we also have a indoor/outdoor sunroom and a fenced-in yard), they're allowed on beds/furniture, and I won’t practice crating unless I'm instructed to. I live right by a park, so I love taking my dogs for short walks or just to go roam around in the lawn, whatever they're in the mood for :) I'm super attentive to their needs, as I currently own two senior doggos (a beagle and a dachshund) and have been able to spot even the littlest physical/emotional changes in them. On that note, I’d prefer to ONLY board dogs that are not high-energy, so as to help keep my small senior dogs safe. I love keeping owners updated and make them feel like their fur babies are right there with them! Animals I've cared for: Dogs, cats, leopard geckos, hognose snakes, hedgehogs, and White's tree frogs. I'm currently working part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I love starting the day by taking my dogs to the park that's 2 min away for a walk. If they seem bored, I’ll give them a car ride or take them to PetSmart to shop around :) I have a fenced in yard and two senior dogs to keep your fur baby company. Your puppo is more than welcome to chill on our beds and couches (we have dog beds, too). We even have a guest room in case they want space! We live right by Walter Fuller recreational park.
About: Dogs and cats were always a constant in my life growing up (even the occasional horse!). Learning how to extend my care to a variety of fur babies from a young age has led me to be very passionate about how deserving they are of consistently top notch care. I will always treat another persons animals with kindness and respect, as if they were my own. I have experience with senior dogs but am also no stranger to our younger, more playful pups. My experience with cats is a little more limited but I have always enjoyed caring for them. I’ve helped many friends and family members with their animals, and would love to extend that service to more people. If you’re a first time Rover user, you can use this link to get $20 off your first walk with me https://www.rover.com/sit/nicolb57032 I am totally willing to do overnight stays or late night drop-in visits when discussed. Feel free to shoot me a message with any scheduling questions! I’m available any time on Wednesdays and Thursdays right now I value communication and transparency between me and all pet parents. The top priority is to keep all pets safe and cared for at all times.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Pasadena
Andrea was truly fantastic! She was so professional and so great with Lady. She responded quickly and made me feel comfortable right away. We will use her again for sure! Nothing better than finding someone who really cares about your dog and having real peace of mind to leave them comfy at home.
Alison was so awesome! My dogs absolutely loved her and when I came home from my trip I could tell they really enjoyed their time with her while I was away. Alison was especially considerate with my senior dachshund who I was quite nervous to leave, but her separation anxiety was minimal thanks to all the love she got from Alison! Alison was great with juggling the needs of her along with my high energy 4 year old Irish setter. We will definitely be repeat clients!
Heather visited with Ruby before and were friends from the beginning. She was on time at the agreed hours and took care of Ruby with no issues. I found her to be friendly, reliable and pampering towards Ruby. I would not hesitate to have her take care of Ruby anytime. Thanks Heather, till next time!
Anika is hands down the best Rover sitter my fur kids have ever had. We all will miss her as we are moving out of state. I can’t recommend her enough. She’s responsive, reliable, communicative and writes the best report cards- I feel like I’m really caught up on the animals with her in charge. If you’re looking for a good sitter look no further!
I cannot recommend Tessa highly enough! From the moment we first reached out, her responsiveness was exceptional. Appointment requests were always answered within minutes, making scheduling incredibly easy and stress-free. One of our biggest concerns was having someone we could truly trust in our home—and this sitter exceeds all expectations. She respected our space, kept everything tidy, and we always felt completely comfortable knowing our dog was in such capable and reliable hands. What truly sets Tessa apart is her remarkable attentiveness to our dog’s special needs. Our aging Weimaraner has a unique diet and medication schedule and some specific behavioral quirks, but Tessa took the time to learn every detail and made sure our dog felt happy and safe. We regularly received thoughtful updates, photos, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while away. If you’re searching for a quick-to-respond, trustworthy, and attentive pet sitter, look no further. Our experience has been nothing short of outstanding!

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a South Pasadena stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in South Pasadena choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in South Pasadena with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
