“My pup had a lovely time with Nancy and her pack of 3 small dogs! We did a thorough Meet & Greet, introducing the dogs on a brief walk, seeing her home, and going through my dog’s routine and preferences. On the first day of dog sitting, Nancy sent me regular updates of everyone going on plenty of walks and getting along. I appreciated Nancy’s dedication as a dog lover and the thoughtful questions she asked to make my pup comfortable in her home 💜”

“I traveled to Burbank for a work event and needed a sitter for Missy on very short notice—less than 24 hours. Jose responded immediately and communicated so clearly throughout the process. On the day of the appointment, I ended up running an hour late, but he was incredibly accommodating and flexible with the schedule. He kept me updated by sending photos of Missy, which gave me peace of mind. When I’m back in LA, I’ll absolutely have Jose watch Missy again—I could tell she enjoyed her time with him too! Thank you so much, Daisy and Jose!”

About: Hello! My name is Annie (legal name- Qirong) and I am a dog aunt that misses pet companionship. I've been petsitting for my friends in the last 6 years with experience in puppies and small-medium dogs. I host a calm and positive environment in my home and would love to cater an unfurgettable experience to both you and your best friend! I can provide: -3+ walks per day -stick to your preferred feeding schedule -cuddle/play breaks -park visits in the late afternoon and weekends -check in via text/picture I work from home remotely so I have plenty of time to spoil your loved ones. They will be well fed and safe in my care! I live in a quiet, suburban neighborhood- 2b2b apartment, 1450 sq ft, with a roommate that loves dogs. While I do not have a yard in the apartment building, there's a stunning neighborhood for walks, a long hallway to play fetch in, and plenty of parks nearby.
“I was really nervous to leave my dog because it was his first time and he’s usually very scared of people. But she did an amazing job he had so much fun, felt completely relaxed at her place, and she took such good care of him. I highly recommend her a thousand times!”

About: Trusting someone with your family member is an important decision. My #1 priority is to make sure you and your pet are relaxed and at ease. I am a great communicator and have excellent relationships with my clients, so that I can always stay on top of your pets needs. I am also experienced with puppies, (especially Corgis and Goldens) as well as elderly pets. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your pet to see if I am a good fit. I have full availability - mornings, afternoons, evenings and weekends. I have some regular clients but I am also good in a pinch and can usually accommodate last minute requests. As mentioned, I will treat your pet like I would my own, always making sure that they are well taken care of -- I can provide a relaxed atmosphere or engage in play time. Everything is personalized to your pets needs. I also board/pet sit small to medium dogs and cats in my home - day care, overnights or vacations.
About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats and genuinely loved being around animals. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very flexible with my schedule right now since I work from home, which means I can give pets lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I currently don’t have any pets in the house, creating a calm environment for your furry friend. I currently work from home for myself, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets attention throughout the day. I’m able to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, feeding, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I live in an apartment in a pet-friendly neighborhood with plenty of grass and walking areas nearby, and I’m always happy to take pets to the park for extra exercise and enrichment. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and trustworthy environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. In both my home and clients’ homes, I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets always have fresh water, a clean environment, lots of attention, and safe supervision at all times.
“Amorn and Adam were very nice. Sent lots of updates. Frida looks like she made herself right at home and had a great time. Thanks for taking her on short notice. See you next time.”

“Tyler was so great!! I am so glad I found him on here, he was very attentive to all of my pup’s needs and so communicative which put me at ease. He went above and beyond to give her lots of love and great care while she was with him and I am so appreciative. 10/10 experience! ☺️”


“Highly recommend Ten! She's quickly become a regular sitter for me. My dog gets excited to go to her place because she knows it means a fun day ahead! Ten's super communicative, kind, patient, and really great with dogs. 100/10!”

“Omar took such great care of Audrey and was very communicative during her stay! I love photos he shared and how happy she was when I came to get her. Will definitely be utilizing Omar in the future 🥰”

“Kenneth was great with my dogs! They had a great time and he sent pics and updates and was very responsive/communicative, even with last minute requests. Highly recommend!”

About: For the past 4 years, I’ve been caring for my own dog and my friends dogs with love and patience. This experience taught me not only the basics of feeding, walking, and training, but also how important it is to give pets gentle attention and make them feel safe and loved. I will care for your pet with the same kindness and responsibility as I do my own. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible with my time. I already do this for my own dog—adjusting my day around walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship—so I can easily do the same for your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s safe and walkable, perfect for daily walks. My home has a large open space where pets can relax and play. With several years of personal experience caring for my own dog, I provide a trustworthy and loving environment where your pet will feel right at home.
“David is awesome! My dogs love him and he was excellent with my 2 month old puppy. Would definitely recommend having your dogs stay with him, I had peace of mind and felt comfortable knowing they were chilling while I was at work.”


“I just moved to LA and Atom was not adjusting well. Nicole worked with me immediately to change my services from daily walks to daycare. Atom was chewing his tail when left alone. At Nicole’s place, he has snuggled with her all day and has not left her side. I was so happy that she was able to accommodate us and care for my little boy. I would recommend Nicole a thousand times over. Best dog care my puppies have ever received!”

“Thrilled that Micah lives near us! He is clearly such a thoughtful and attentive person (with people and dogs) and is very communicative. We definitely hope to have our dog Bo spend time with him again.”

“Thank you Claudia!!! We had another Rover sitter cancel our booking last minute and that put us in a stressful situation. Thankfully Claudia (and her husband Andrew) were available and only five minutes from Universal Studios Hollywood. You saved the day, and we had no worries leaving our Mini Schnauzer Stix with you. Would absolutely have you watch him again. . . . thanks again.”

Universal City dog parents share their Rover experiences
Ceara was absolutely wonderful with us! She took such loving, attentive, and thoughtful care of Anko, playing with her so well and keeping us updated with sweet messages and photos. I could tell Anko completely trusted her and felt so safe and comfortable. Also, she was incredibly flexible with the schedule over the two days to accommodate us, allowing us to fully relax and enjoy our trip even more than planned. Ceara is genuinely kind and gentle, and I highly recommend her. We will definitely be back! ❤️🐾

We’re so grateful for the amazing care she gave our dog 🤍 She did a wonderful job, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can truly tell she loves animals and treats them like her own. Very thankful for her help and would absolutely trust her again!

Rita is definitely a great pet sitter! My little minpin just loved her, he doesn’t warm up to very many people but in just one day he was relaxed and enjoying his new friend. I am very happy to have found a caregiver for my special fur baby that is my whole world and I always want the best for him and Rita is the best. Thank you Rita for being a fur baby guru ;) ~ Kat

Our little pup was in the absolute best hands with Nancy. She has a really wonderful, warm pawrent personality and she made Lexi feel right at home. We received tons of welcomed photos, videos and updates. We will absolutely continue seeing Nancy - we’re sure our pup will demand it.

Paulina is the best! She goes above and beyond for my little Elle. My dog literally starts whining when I grab her bag to go … it’s a long car ride 😂 she can’t wait to see her Auntie Paulina and her pup friends. It’s been a great experience getting my puppy properly socialized in a safe environment!

Megan was FABULOUS!!! We left our 19 week old puppy- 1st time away from us- with Megan & he loved her! She graciously offered a meet & greet a couple days ahead of time to make us more comfortable, and during our evening out, she sent regular updates and pictures. When we came to pick him up, he was calm and settled which was a great sign. We will be booking again!!
