About: Although newer to Rover, I've been dog sitting for years and have cared for dogs and other animals most of my life. I volunteer weekly at a local animal sanctuary where I care for many different kinds of animals. Having always been a Dog Mom, I have house trained Pekingese, Lab, Rottweiler, English Mastiff, as well as pound puppies so I feel comfortable with all dog breeds and love every minute with them. Day care or overnights available 7 days a week - can pick up /drop off locally for small fee. Same day availability is also an option. I have a large fenced in yard with a pool . Pool is open for dogs to swim. Dogs would sleep indoors at night time.
“Margarita was amazing!!! We went on vacation for a week and had her walk our dog twice a day. She kept us in the loop and provided us with picture, videos, on each walk which I loved. While we were away, our housesitter had to leave a couple of times, and Margarita was able to work with the information we gave her last minute and returned our dog safely inside the house. I would highly recommend Margarita!!!”

“Bianca is so dependable and kind. We’ve received her help on multiple occasions (over 5 times now) - for my pets feeding and walking schedule and she was just lovely, great communicator and reliable. Thank you Bianca !”

“Jana does such a great job with Avenger. She spends great time with him, leaves detailed info on how things went and sends lots of pictures. Most of all, when we get home we know he was well taken care of because he’s so happy. Thanks again, Jana!”

“Meredith has been a great help, she and her daughter are very kind and friendly and Louie was always happy to see her. She also gave me very useful care tips. Would definitely re-book and I highly recommend Meredith to others.”

About: Hello! My name is Noemi and I'm a passionate pet caretaker with professional experience! I worked as a kennel attendant at a luxury pet hotel/daycare called the Barkley Pet Hotel and Day Spa, and also worked as a veterinary assistant at La Cañada Pet Clinic. I have 2 years of experience with overnight pet sitting. I'm a student and will be completing my last semester at Cal State Long Beach this fall 2026 as a marine biology major! I’m a huge animal lover and grew up around dogs and cats, and even had a few reptiles. I have a black Labrador mix named Chloe and a tuxedo kitty named Mici 🐾 I would be happy to provide loving care for your furry family member! 💗 I’m currently fully available for the summer while I’m in town, but will have limited weekend availability starting mid August for the upcoming fall semester. I will follow all instructions for caring for your pets in your home. I will give frequent updates and will immediately contact you with any questions or concerns. I will do everything to make your pet comfortable, and will respect your space.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats pretty much my whole life and have taken care of dogs for friends and family for years. I’m really comfortable around different types of dogs and understand how to read their behavior and approach them in a calm, respectful way. I genuinely enjoy being around animals and always make sure they feel safe, cared for, and well looked after. I’ve always been around pets growing up, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my routine. While I don’t currently have pets of my own, I regularly help friends and family by taking care of theirs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I genuinely enjoy it and make it a consistent part of my daily and weekly schedule whenever the opportunity comes up. At the moment, I’m not able to host animals at my place of residence. I’m hoping that changes soon so I can incorporate pet care more into my daily routine, but for now I’m happy to provide care in your home.
“Katy was fabulous! She stopped by several times during the week to take our pup out for hour long walks. Our boy was very excited to see her every time she arrived and watched her leave from the window. Katy was very responsive and was clearly loves dogs. We will definitely reach out again!”
About: I grew up with dogs and a bird in my home. I took care of neighborhood pets including ferrets, cats, and frogs, and have been caring for animals for my whole life. I currently have a flexible schedule, so I'm happy to take care of animals during the day and in the evenings on weekdays. I take care of my dog Juniper every day as well, but she is comfortable on her own, in case I need to leave her at home and care for another pet. I have a 15ish pound chihuahua mix (Juniper) that gets along well with other dogs. We have a decent sized yard, with a section of that fenced in. We live right next to a small hiking trail, and Juniper and I will walk up on there every day unless the rain makes it too muddy to climb. If your dog is an outdoorsy type and likes horses, (we live right by a ranch) we'll have a nice time taking the trail. We also have several rooms in the house and can section off dogs as needed.

About: For the last 8+ years I have worked in dog kennels, boarding, training and shelter environments. I am focusing on gaining my trainer and/or handler certificate as well as animal CPR care. I am a professional dog walker so it's more than just a side gig for me; I take your dog's health, happiness and safety seriously. My visit to your pets will vary on their needs from just a potty break or feeding to an hour long hike. I am very detail oriented when it comes to communicating what services I have done from what meals or treats given, bowel movements and behavioral updates. I have experience with newborn puppies, elderly pups and reactive dogs. I may suggest a different walking harness or basic training methods if I feel it would be better for your pup; if I feel like I can't safely handle your dog I will do my best to help find a better fit. I am able to take up to 4 dogs in my car if all fit and get along. I love taking them out for hikes or parks but never off leash. I prefer visits no earlier than 8am or later than 6pm, but am willing to work with special requests. Currently serving the San Fernando Valley areas; Burbank, Pasadena, Sierra Madre, Alhambra, Van Nuys, Sun Valley, etc. I currently have a rather open schedule for house visits, potty breaks, play visits, hikes and walks. I can not house any pets in my home but am available for in home pet sittings. I live in Burbank so can go about 20 miles radius depending on the care request. I try to stick with your usual daily schedule to help ease your pet's stress while you're away. I stay with any training requirements and diet restrictions. The only times I leave the home are for other pet care needed around town. I understand how stressful it is finding a new pet care friend and I value your trust more than anything. (Yes I will bring in your mail and packages of course!) I communicate daily with updated photos and texts. My rates are posted due to my years of experience and changing up my own life schedule to accommodate for your needs. I also don't mind taking care of plants too!

“Sean is absolutely fantastic with my two borzois, Spartacus and Diego! From the very first walk, he showed a calm confidence and genuine care that immediately put both dogs—and me—at ease. Borzois can be a bit particular, but Sean handles them with patience, professionalism, and a great sense of humor. He’s always punctual, communicative, and goes above and beyond to make sure the boys get a full, enriching walk every time. I’ve noticed how excited they get when he arrives, which says it all. It’s such a relief knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly recommend Sean to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker!”


About: Friends started asking me to care for their dogs while they were away and thats how it all started! I love spending time with animals and its just continued since. I am currently working but will have plenty of time to hang out and care for your cats and dogs! It will be a valuable use of my time Whether I'm in your home or mine, your pet gets my full attention. I stick to their routine, because consistency keeps pets calm and happy. In your home, I treat the space with total respect your things will stay clean, secure, and as you left them. For walks and drop ins, I always double check gates and leashes, send you a photo update so you can see they're doing great. I genuinely love animals, your pet will get belly rubs, playtime, fresh water, and a lot of love.

“Steve is absolutely wonderful!! Five stars. My doggies love him, they look forward to seeing him every time. He is super fun, caring, attentive and eager to help. I highly recommend my man Steve!”

About: I am a former veterinary technician now turned dog walker and petsitter. I started off working with animals helping the ranch hands at Pierce College. I assisted with 3 kidding seasons and educating the new students on the goat unit. Towards the end this time, I simultaneously started working at my first veterinary practice. I was there for a long time where I learned all the key basic teachings of veterinary medicine. I worked with dogs, cats, rats, birds, and rabbits at this practice. (Fun fact: I become pretty good at reading x-rays which I was very proud about.) I learned how to restrain properly (for all animals), draw blood, collect lab samples, express anal glands, nail trims, surgery monitoring, and lots of client care service. From there I moved to Seattle to work at a new veterinary practice. (If you are able to, please visit Seattle in the summer!) I missed home so I moved back after a while and started working at a veterinary hospital in Santa Monica. It was there were I learned the most because it was not only appointment based, but also a walk in/emergency clinic. Things got very chaotic and through this chaos it was my best work. I was the calm in the storm. I gave every single pet the exact same care no matter how neglected (we worked with the animal shelter and rescues) or how loved they were because they all deserve to feel cared for. I made sure that you pet parents deserved to feel safe trusting me with your pet's care. I have been with people on their best days with their new puppies and kittens and on their worst days saying goodbye to their family member. I understand how important your pet(s) are to you. I understand that it's not easy to trust a stranger with your pet(s). I understood that every time I met a new client, asking questions about your pet(s) history, taking their vitals, and hoping in that short time frame I earned enough trust from you to take your pet to the back while we performed services and safely return them back to you. If your pet(s) have any medications to give, you are in luck, I have a lot of experience in doing so. I helped pet parents at the clinic and in their own homes when they couldn't make it to the clinic any longer. I currently have a senior dog (she's 16), so I know that our senior baby's need extra care. I know they start having accidents inside the house again and have strict medications so rest assured, I would take care of your senior pups like I would take care of mine. They deserve it and you deserve a peace of mind about that. I will be working here on Rover in concurrent with my other job. I work from home so I am able to proficiently create a schedule that will make sure your pet(s) get the proper care they need. Our Meet & Greet will be mandatory as I want to know all the details of your pet's care and make sure that your pet(s) and my safety are aligned. Based off my veterinary experience, I can read a dog pretty well if they will be aggressive or timid or scared with a stranger's presence. I also want to know about your pet's quirks as I know almost everyone's pets have some because pets are funny that way. And I want to meet you to make sure we are a good fit for one another and that you feel safe trusting your pet's care with me. This relationship will be a two way street especially if it grows to be something more than once. As far as trusting me with your home, know that I have been helping my mom clean houses for over half my life (15+ years). She has her own business and has asked me to help out a lot throughout the years. I have been in people's homes in Pasadena, Thousand Oaks, Malibu, Lake Sherwood, Westlake Village, Santa Monica, Brentwood and more. Many family's have trusted me with taking care of their homes and leaving them more beautiful than I found them. I created great relationships with people's pets as well aka they knew when I arrived they would be getting lots of love and their welcome treat!

Alexis was wonderful with my two pups, Peaches and Craig! She came by for a meet and greet beforehand, which showed right away how thoughtful and caring she is. She has such a kind energy that my dogs instantly picked up on, and they felt super comfortable with her. During the booking, she walked and fed them, kept me updated the whole time, and was so easy to communicate with. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. I highly recommend Alexis. Peaches, Craig, and I are so grateful we found her!
