“Bon Bon had a wonderful stay with Lianna and her family. They were great & kept her safe and she was happy during the stay. She bonded well with Lianna's dogs too which is great. Highly recommended for great care and attention for your pups!”
“Tyler and Patricia took very good care of my 5 year old Shiba Inu. I felt very comfortable leaving my baby in their care. They kept me posted about their activities and kind enough to send me pictures of my baby being completely pampered and spoiled. I highly recommend them and will definitely bring Hachi back to them very soon!”
“Exceptional dog sitter! This marks the second time she's cared for our two small dogs, and once again, she surpassed our expectations. She provided daily updates, along with photos. The genuine affection our dogs show for her speaks volumes. Her unwavering availability during our family emergency was a true comfort. She consistently goes above and beyond, making her the go-to choice for anyone in need of a caring and reliable pet sitter. Highly recommend her for a second time and beyond!”
“Angela provided exceptional care for Mousse during our ten‑day trip. Since this was the first time we’d ever left him — and given his anxiety and barking — we expected it to be difficult. Instead, Angela handled him with confidence and kindness, and he quickly warmed up to her and her beagle, Kona. Her frequent photo and video updates while we were in Japan made a huge difference for us. She ensured Mousse stayed active, comfortable, and well‑supported with walks, playtime, and dog‑park visits. I would definitely recommend her to all my friends and family.”
“We were nervous to leave our baby with someone other than our parents but he had a great time and Ness sent pictures and let me know he was doing great. By the end of trip I was nervous he wouldn’t want to come home because of how happy he looked with Ness and her dogs. Would definitely use again!”
“This was the first time I left my two little furry ones with anyone other than my mom, so needless to say, I was quite nervous. A big part of my concern was because one of my dogs does not do well with most humans or other pets besides his brother. Veronica kindly agreed to do a meet-and-greet beforehand to make sure my dogs were comfortable with her and that it was a good fit both ways. By the end of the meeting, the dog I was most worried about had completely warmed up to her and was rolling onto his back so she could rub his belly! I was so thankful knowing they would be comfortable staying with her for the five days I was away. Veronica sent updates and photos, and they looked relaxed, happy, and well cared for in every picture. I truly believe pets can sense when someone genuinely cares for them, and I could see that with Veronica. I would absolutely recommend Veronica, and if I ever need to leave my pets again, I would feel completely comfortable having them stay with her.”
“Jillian was absolutely amazing, I received daily updates and photos of my baby dog. Prior to his boarding, Jillian provided us a tour of his suite and the layout. We also did a a consultation to make sure Maximus would feel comfortable. Everything went smoothly and Maximus absolutely adored Jillian. She took him out on outings and was always on alert taking care of him. They even had special play dates. She cooked special meals for him and made sure he felt safe at all times. I would 1000% hired Jillian to take of my baby dog.”
“Tamra was amazing! She made our pup feel right at home and made our interactions super easy. She communicates really well and made our 5 night boarding experience such a breeze. Thanks Tamra!”
“We can’t recommend Ximena enough! She has been absolutely wonderful with our 1-year-old Maltipoo, Daisy. Honestly, sometimes we feel like Daisy prefers Ximena’s home over ours — that’s how happy and comfortable she is there! Ximena and her family treat Daisy like one of their own. Whether it's going on walks, playing, or even including her in family picnics, Daisy is always part of the action and clearly loved. What really sets Ximena apart is the regular updates she sends — pictures and videos that show Daisy having fun and being well cared for. She also is very attentive if there are concerns from us that we would like monitoring like her food intake or energy levels. It gives us such peace of mind, especially since Daisy has some abandonment issues from prior to our adoption. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can trust completely. Ximena is a true gem!”
“Where do I start, if I could leave a 10 star review I would, from the moment I left my dog with Steven it was pure joy, he was always in contact with updates with pics and videos, he is truly a animal lover, he is so patient and attentive, he will go above and beyond with your dog, I will definitely book again with Steven, thanks a lot Sol my dog was extremely happy staying with Steven. He is awesome!!!”
“Highly recommend Blanca!!!!...She is so awesome with our dog Yeti, very reliable and love that she keeps us informed. Also the pictures she sends to update us are great at keeping our minds at ease while we are away from our baby. We trust her and have peace of mind everytime she takes care of our Darling Yeti!!!!?”
“The best experience ever : } Louisette is awesome she genuinley cares for pets and it shows in the way she takes care of them. I am extremely happy that I found such an awesome and dedicated person : } If you have a Pet and want a place for them while you are away Louisette is the person to go to GOD BLESS”
“Sabrina was wonderful with my dog Lucy. She sent frequent updates of Lucy’s demeanor and wellbeing. Sabrina also took Lucy for walks daily and kept to her feeding schedule as requested. 10 out of 10 recommend!”
“We recently used Soonok as a dog sitter for the first time to care for our senior terrier, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Naturally, we were a bit anxious leaving our older dog in someone else’s care, but Soonok immediately put us at ease. Soonok was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive, taking extra care to accommodate our dog’s needs and pace. What really stood out was the consistent communication—we received daily updates and videos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear our dog was in great hands and being treated with genuine care and affection. We’re so grateful for the experience and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Soonok to others. We will very likely be using her services again in the future.”
“Stephanie was awesome, she took Izaiah on walks and outings. He got to socialize with Stephanie’s puppy. She kept constant communication and sent picture updates throughout the time she had him. Would definitely reccommend.”

Cat caregivers near you - Downey
Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my patience, understanding, and ability to connect with cats of all personalities. I have experience caring for cats who are shy, independent, and even those with a more “grumpy” or antisocial personality. I understand that every cat has their own comfort level and needs, and I take the time to build trust instead of forcing interaction. My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where each cat feels respected and cared for. Whether your cat is playful and affectionate or prefers their own space, I am committed to giving them the attention, patience, and care they deserve.
“Athanasia is an amazing find! I am a first time Rover user and was very nervous. Athanasia put both me and my dog Presley at ease at the meet and greet. We booked her and she dropped in on Presley three days on a row -- doing a great job! She is an excellent communicator and coaxed great smiles from him in home and outside on their walks. Athanasia clearly loves dogs and cares for her Rover pets well. I highly recommend Athanasia and will use her again and again!!”

I often have daytime availability for walks, feedings, and check-ins, and I’m also available for overnight stays. I can adjust to meet your pet’s needs. My top priority is making sure they feel relaxed, safe, and loved while their owner is away. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—whether it’s mealtime, walks, playtime, or quiet cuddles—so they stay comfortable in their own environment. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, building trust with patience and affection. I do everything I can to make them feel secure and cared for, just like they would with their family.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Family I'd visit growing up and still visit have had 10 dogs featuring 8 different breeds, from Chihuahuas to Pitbulls. I've raised and basic-trained 3 puppy rescues since 2001, saw 2 of them to seniority (Chihuahua and Jack Russel-Chihuahua mix), and raised the most recent (Pug) until 2024 when I blessed close family members with her because they have a huge yard she adores and want her to be happy. I can't wait to fill this place with the vibrant energy only dogs can give! Let's talk price adjustment after the first booking ❤️ I'm currently in between jobs so I'd be able to give your furbaby all the attention they need. I just need a day's heads up to get a few things sorted and we're all set! Your place or my place? I can go either way! This townhome has a patio your furbaby can sunbathe in with a breeze and shade, or we can keep them inside nice and cool/warm if the weather isn't friendly. If they're less adventurous, I can keep them company at your place where they'd feel more at home.
“Alison was a wonderful and thoughtful sitter. She was patient with our shy girly and sent us adorable pictures and videos of our cat warming up to her over her visits. She gave our girly lots of love and attention and treated her like her own. Could not recommend her more and look forward to having her as a repeat sitter in the future”

“This was my first time using Rover so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Cleo was great to work with. She was super responsive and attentive to my cat. My Goldie typically doesn’t like people. She hides. I love that she provides pictures. Goldie didn’t hide and watched Cleo. That’s really a good start. This service was easy to use and I will definitely use Cleo again.”
About: With a decade of experience caring for dogs and a goal of becoming a vet, I bring both heart and knowledge to every pup I meet. Hi, I’m Brianna! I’ve been caring for dogs of all kinds since I was 12 and am currently pursuing a career in veterinary medicine. My deep love for animals drives everything I do, and I’m passionate about providing quality, loving care for every pet I meet. Animals have always been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, whether it’s walking, feeding, bathing, or just being their companion while their families are away. I’m fun, responsible, and compassionate, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own. I know how important trust is when it comes to your pet, so I’m always happy to answer any questions and make sure you feel comfortable. You can count on me to give 100% to every visit, every time. I’m a full-time college student wrapping up my final year of undergraduate school, but don’t worry—I’ve designed my schedule to make plenty of time for pet care! I only attend in-person classes two days a week and reserve Wednesdays for studying, which means I’m fully available Friday through Monday and partially available the other days to give your pup the attention they deserve. Your dog will be in a safe, secure environment with a fenced backyard, constant supervision, and lots of love. I also have home security cameras for added peace of mind. Plus, your pup will have the company of my two sweet, friendly huskies Sky and Echo who are both spayed and great at helping new dogs feel comfortable and settled in.

“This was my first time using rover and Elizabeth did a great job with my dog Josie! She was super fast and responsive when I requested the booking. Very thorough with any questions or concerns I had. Very flexible with dropping off and picking up. I could tell that Elizabeth and her family had a great time with Josie and I do not have a single complaint! Overall genuine experience :)”
“It was nice getting updates about our pup getting along with Samantha and the household. She’s pretty quick with replying and we appreciated that. My fiancé had anxiety leaving him cause it was our first time using rover! Super pleased with the service! Thank again Samantha!”
“Marina has been absolutely amazing! If you’re looking for someone to take care of your fur babies I highly recommend Marina. My puppy pretzel, isn’t very social, and when I brought her to Marina’s house for a meet up, she wasn’t initially friendly towards the other dogs. However, Marina patiently worked with pretzel and carefully introduced her to the group. I am impressed by Marina’s ability to create a calm and welcoming environment. She is incredibly patient, caring, and always goes the extra mile to help. She’s also flexible with scheduling, which has been a huge help! On top of that, her rates are very reasonable!”
“This was my second time using Miguel’s services and I have to say I highly recommend him. He was very accommodating the first time I left my dog with him and he showed us around where the dogs stay and gave me a walk through of what dogs do during the day. He is a great communicator, and his home is setup as a boarding place, very safe. Will continue using his services!”
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent to my own dog and cat for years, giving them daily walks, playtime, feedings, and lots of love. I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ pets countless times — everything from energetic puppies needing basic training and lots of exercise to senior dogs requiring gentle walks, medication administration, and extra patience.What sets me apart? I’m a local Downey guy who’s always on time, super reliable, and treat every pet like my own family member.

Mornings and evenings are wide open for longer walks, playtime, feedings, or overnight stays. I typically block out time for pet clients first thing so they always get my full attention and energy. Weekends are especially flexible for boarding or extended visits. I treat every booking like it’s my own pet — reliable, on-time, and with plenty of updates so owners can relax. Whether it’s a quick 30-minute drop-in or multi-day house-sitting, I make sure it works seamlessly with my day. I always put safety and comfort first, whether I’m at your home or hosting in mine.

“Sonia and her daughter were really nice and accommodating. They really took care of Summer and treated her like their own. I could tell that Summer had fun bonding with both of them and Summer looks happy every time we pick her up. Sonia’s really good with updating and sending pictures and videos of Summer. They made me feel at ease. Definitely, I will let them take care of Summer again if ever we get to have vacation. It’s hard to look for someone that you can entrust your furry baby and I’m lucky I found them!😊”
“Having used other good ROVER sitters before, Maritza tops them all. Lots of pictures, potty breaks, playing with other dogs, etc. He always has a great night’s sleep after spending the day at Maritza‘s.”
About: One thing about me, I genuinely care for your pet. I treat each pet as if they are my own and make sure to show that love and care throughout my time with them. Ive been a dog sitter and walker for over 9 years before joining this app. From puppies to seniors and with different health needs, I have the experience needed to take care of your pup. I now live in South Gate in a home with a fenced-in yard with convenient access to freeways and streets for easy commute. I understand the needs of different types of dogs from the overly friendly to very reactive and can accommodate to the dog’s needs accordingly. I currently have a 10 year-old husky and 1 year-old chihuahua mix I take care of at home. I’m currently in between jobs and have a lot of time on my hands. My time is most free during business hours but I am happy to accommodate to your scheduling needs. I currently live in an apartment. While it is a bit cramped, my husky is not territorial in the least and guest pups have an easy time accommodating to the space. If I am in someone else’s home, I will make sure to adhere to the rules and guidelines they provide me to take care of their pup(s).
About: I have experience with training and walking high-energy and strong breeds. I’ve raised a Husky, Labrador, and Pitbull mix, so I’m confident handling all sizes, puppies to seniors. Safe, reliable, and attentive—your dog is in experienced hands. I have always had a special spot for dogs! I’m a professional soccer player and while I’m in my hometown on vacation I have plenty of free time in my daily routine. Pet care fits in perfectly as I love staying active and enjoy spending that time walking, running, and caring for dogs. I’m flexible, reliable, and excited to give dogs the best walk or run they’ve ever had. I provide attentive, hands-on care in my home or a client’s home. I have a large backyard and a very friendly, playful Husky who loves walks and playtime with other dogs. I use positive reinforcement with treats, give plenty of attention, and always prioritize safety and comfort.
“Louisette was amazing with my dogs! I have two big labs and she was very welcoming. We had a meet and greet prior to the stay and she was very accommodating. My dogs felt very comfortable with her and her family! She even sent me pictures throughout the day which was very nice! I would totally recommend her service!”
“Excellent experience from start to finish. Arianna was very attentive and took great care of my dog at all times. She kept me updated in real time, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches. Her home is beautiful and the location is great. I would definitely hire her again whenever needed and highly recommend her.”
“Very pleased with my first Rover experience. Deana sent me pictures and a video where I saw my pup was happy and well taken care of. I plan to book more days with Deana in the future. Thank you!”

About: From a young age, it has been my nature to care and share a bond with dogs. As an adult, I have given the best life to my dog Scooby, who is now 15 years of age. He has taught me so much about caring and loving for a dog. Scooby and I go on long walks, and I see the joy he gets from them. It's the highlight of his day. I would like to share this joy with your pet too! I work evening shifts Monday - Wednesday, so I have all morning or afternoon to take a refreshing walk with your fur baby. I have Thursday and Friday and Friday off, which makes me available anytime of the day for another enjoyable walk! I have the upmost respect for people and their personal space. Just let me know how I can help, plus any boundaries, and I'll be sure to do the best I can!
“Allen is a fantastic human being that our puppy really enjoys going out on walks with. During scheduled walks he is very communicative sending both video and photos of every walk. Our puppy, Maverick, gets excited when he knows it’s walk day with Allen, which is a testament to how good he is with animals. We feel our pet is safe, secure, and well looked after when Allen is around. If you are in the need for a trustworthy and experienced walker look no further because we highly recommend Allen.”
About: I've grown up and taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. From family to friends I've been able to watch, walk, play, take care, and feed everyone's pets. I have my own dog named Dexter who is a 5 year old Dachsund mix. He was rescued from a breeder/hoarder house in Riverside and in the beginning he was very anxious, shy, timid, and afraid of people. Now my boy is happy, enjoys cuddling, and is able to be around people that love and care about him. I'm currently waiting on training for a full time job in July so right now my schedule is open from Monday to Saturday. Besides caring for my own dog who is super friendly with other dogs my schedule is open at the moment and will work with people's schedule to give their dog the care and attention they deserve. I currently live in an apartment with a patio and in the back is a grass yard for everyone to share. I always make sure my dog has his walks everyday and sometimes I'll take him to the dog park which he loves. Give him his breakfast and dinner as scheduled. Clean his ears as well as bathe him when its needed. Along with making sure he takes his vitamins each day. For other dogs I would do as requested walk, feed, play, and give them attention or space if needed.
About: I’ve grown up in a home with 5+ pets at all times, including dogs, cats, rabbits, reptiles, and fish.

Currently I am a Starbucks Barista, I typically work late afternoon closing shifts. I am off by 9:30. I’m available to come in before and after work to check up on your furry friends <3. Growing up with multiple pets, I’m very attentive to creating a safe and stress-free environment. I follow routines carefully, including feeding, walks, and any special care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times. I also pay close attention to behavior and keep owners updated so they feel confident and at ease while they’re away.
About: Dogs have always been a part of my life. Family I'd visit growing up and still visit have had 10 dogs featuring 8 different breeds, from Chihuahuas to Pitbulls. I've raised and basic-trained 3 puppy rescues since 2001, saw 2 of them to seniority (Chihuahua and Jack Russel-Chihuahua mix), and raised the most recent (Pug) until 2024 when I blessed close family members with her because they have a huge yard she adores and want her to be happy. I can't wait to fill this place with the vibrant energy only dogs can give! Let's talk price adjustment after the first booking ❤️ I'm currently in between jobs so I'd be able to give your furbaby all the attention they need. I just need a day's heads up to get a few things sorted and we're all set! Your place or my place? I can go either way! This townhome has a patio your furbaby can sunbathe in with a breeze and shade, or we can keep them inside nice and cool/warm if the weather isn't friendly. If they're less adventurous, I can keep them company at your place where they'd feel more at home.

About: Hi, I'm Cleo, As a lifelong animal lover, I know that your dog is a cherished member of your family. Leaving them with someone new can be stressful, which is why my number one priority is providing absolute peace of mind. When your pup is with me, they receive undivided attention, structure, and endless affection.I have years of experience handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Whether your dog is a high-energy athlete who needs long walks, or a gentle senior who prefers belly rubs and naps, I tailor my care to their specific routine. I am incredibly detail-oriented and strictly follow all feeding as well as medication,.You can expect consistent, clear communication from me, including plenty of photo and video updates. Your home will always be respected, and your dog will always be safe, happy, and loved! My daily life starts with feeding my beagle Chloe followed by a nice long walk. My free time is spent at the dog park with with Chloe or getting to spend time with other fur babies. My passion in life is working with children (I work in education) and animals. They both bring me so much joy..when I talk on a walk or a sitting I make sure your fur baby gets all my attention. I always show up a little early to introduce myself and get to know your pet. And enter with caution to make sure your baby doesn't get out. I leash inside and like to explain what we're about to do. I'm a big believer in making sure your fur baby feels safe and comfortable. Sometimes I will sing kid songs to ease their mind and get a wag in their tale. My goal is to provide a safe, happy environment that brings joy to them.

About: Hello, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, so understanding their behavior, needs, and personalities comes naturally to me. Beyond that, I’ve volunteered in pet shelters, where I’ve cared for dogs with a wide range of temperaments from energetic puppies to shy or anxious rescues so I know how to build their trust I’m also trained in dog walking, which means I prioritize safety, proper leash handling, and positive reinforcement techniques on every walk. I’m especially comfortable working with puppies who need patience and consistency, as well as senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra care, or medication awareness. Above all, I treat every dog like my own making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away, because we all know that’s the hardest part Hello I’m currently trying to go back to school for my masters. So overall my weeks and weekends are available to take care of your pups as long as I can take a few hours to get some studying in. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel secure while you’re away. That means feeding on schedule, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’m mindful of keeping their environment clean and calm, and I always respect your home as if it were my own. I will also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy and in good hands. I just want the pups to feel comfortable and loved so they have the best experience.
About: I’ve been a proud pet parent to my own dog and cat for years, giving them daily walks, playtime, feedings, and lots of love. I’ve cared for friends’ and family members’ pets countless times — everything from energetic puppies needing basic training and lots of exercise to senior dogs requiring gentle walks, medication administration, and extra patience.What sets me apart? I’m a local Downey guy who’s always on time, super reliable, and treat every pet like my own family member.

Plus, my flexible schedule means I’m available for last-minute bookings or overnight stays. Your pets will get safe, fun, and loving care every time! Pet care easily fits into my flexible daily and weekly routine. As a full-time real estate professional and local Downey resident, my schedule is adaptable — I’m often out showing properties or running errands around town, which makes drop-ins, walks, and midday check-ins super convenient. Mornings and evenings are wide open for longer walks, playtime, feedings, or overnight stays. I typically block out time for pet clients first thing so they always get my full attention and energy. Weekends are especially flexible for boarding or extended visits. I treat every booking like it’s my own pet — reliable, on-time, and with plenty of updates so owners can relax.

In your home (drop-ins, walks, house-sitting): I follow your exact instructions to the letter — feeding schedule, medication, walk routes, play preferences, and any house rules. I keep your place spotless (no mess left behind), secure all doors/windows, and send plenty of photo/video updates so you can relax. I’m fully background-checked and treat every home like my own.

I maintain a calm, clean environment with regular cleaning, fresh water always available, and lots of playtime and cuddles. Pets get my full attention — no leaving them alone for long periods. I’m happy to accommodate special needs like puppy energy, senior mobility, or anxious pets with extra patience. Your fur baby’s safety and happiness is my top priority — they’ll come home happy and tired!

I work part time mostly at nights so I’m available to walk dogs during the morning and day time.

About: I grew up around dogs and raised a Maltese for 14 years. I’m now a proud Golden Retriever mom for the past two years. I recently purchased a spacious townhouse, and one of the rooms is dedicated entirely as a dog playroom. It’s fully set up with sniffing mats, balls, toys, and chew treats. My dog, Chichi, goes on 3–4 walks a day, and we frequently visit parks to play and exercise. She is gentle and friendly with small dogs and loves all people and dogs. I’m truly a dog person and understand dogs’ needs, routines, and emotions. You can leave your dog with me comfortably, just like home. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and loving, please feel free to contact me. I work from home on Fridays, and on Saturdays and Sundays I often take Chichi to the park to play and spend time outdoors. I’m able to provide full care on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Walks and playtime are, of course, included! I live in a 1,200 sq ft townhouse, and one bedroom and one bathroom are dedicated as a dog playroom. There is also a beautiful garden in my community where I often go for walks. The area is safe, clean, and full of trees, making it a great environment for dogs.
