“The best cat sitter we’ve ever had! Our kitties LOVE Zlata and they are usually very scared of people they don’t know. She sends very thorough check-in updates with lots of cute pictures. Overall she is a sweet person and very personable!”
“Cassandra helped me through a rough moment that I really appreciate. She was communicative and helpful. I waited years to use rover and this was my first time - right when I got a new puppy. She was great!”

About: I am currently studying to go to veterinary school. I am a certified dog groomer and have done that the last 5 years. I have also managed multiple dog boarding/daycare businesses. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds and temperament. I own 5 dogs of my own. Dog are my passion and I will treat your dog as they are my own❤️ I have taken multiple certification classes in Pet CPR/First Aid, handling senior pets, working with anxious/fearful dogs/etc. I specialize in dogs that need a little extra love and patience 😊 My entire life is devoted to dogs. When not working with client dogs I am taking mine on walks and playing with them or training them. I have a pretty flexible schedule right now and can make most times work! I will follow exact directions with the care for you pet. I am extremely patient and loving. I specialize working with aggressive and nervous dogs. I will respect your home and follow all rules to a T.
“He was very helpful and patient. My puppies have never had a stranger walk them and they were a little nervous and barked at him. Because he was so calm and patient, he was able to walk them with no issues, I would definitely recommend Dan.”

“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!”

“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’m very adaptable. If your cat is chill, I’m chill. If your dog likes to play, I like to play. If your baby is afraid of the color blue, then so am I. I have the most experience with taking care of senior pets and giving specialized care (medications, flee treatments, etc). My schedule is pretty unpredictable but also completely up to me. If you let me know in advance, I’ll be able to move anything around. I’ve worked with all types of pets, but I tend to let your pets be. I want to create a safe, comfortable, and familiar environment for your babies. No matter what adventures we go on, your house and pets will return to your care exactly as you left them.
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.
About: Hi! I’m Leah — a dependable, attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves animals and treats every pet like family. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care, so I prioritize communication, safety, and making sure your pet feels loved and comfortable while you’re away. I have experience caring for dogs with different personalities and energy levels, and I’m happy to accommodate routines, walks, playtime, feeding schedules, medications, and extra cuddles. As a professional and busy mom myself, I know how valuable reliability and trust are, and I strive to make the experience stress-free for both pets and owners. I’d love the opportunity to care for your furry family member! Rather than having my own dog, I have chosen to look after others so that I can experience a diverse range of 4-legged friends. I will treat your dog with respect like it is my very own. I look forward to getting to know your dog :) Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and regular check-ins throughout the day. I’m organized, dependable, and make communication with pet parents a priority by providing updates and photos so they feel comfortable while away. I believe pets feel safest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I take time to learn each pet’s habits, personality, and needs. In a client’s home, I respect their space while making sure pets are comfortable, secure, and well cared for. I pay close attention during walks, keep doors and gates secure, monitor behavior closely, and provide lots of affection and reassurance to help pets feel relaxed and happy.
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.
“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!”


About: I love dogs...they make me smile and I think they are the most devoted friends! Making them happy, makes me happy. seeing their tail wag is such a good feeling. I enjoy their company and I haven't met a dog I don't like. Whether we are playing walking feeding bathing or just relaxing together are all highlights to spending time with animals. They truly are special and I love being around them as much as I can.
South Pasadena dog parents share their Rover experiences
Kim did a great job with Maisy. She spent lots of time in our meet and greet to understand Maisy and her quirks. I found Kim to be very flexible and a great communicator. She provided lots of details around how Maisy did during her drop in. She provided a lot of photos too. She’s very responsible and I would highly recommend her to others.

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!
