“A great experience that was easy, flexible, worry and stress-free. Amon and Adam work from home and adore doggies and treat them as their own. Our pup had loads of human and happy pup interaction. Plus, sunshine, backyard sniffing and neighborhood walks outside. Inside filled with cozy beds and fuzzy blankets. Looking forward to Phoebe’s next stay.”
“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”
“Chan and his wife were the best!! They were super kind and sweet from beginning to end! They sent plenty of photos and updates during my dog’s stay with them which was much appreciated! Their updates put me at ease and I knew that my dog was in good hands. They were extremely accommodating to my schedule. Thank you so much!! I recommend them 100%!!”
“Could not be happier with my experience! They are extremely genuine and fun to work with. My two year old German Shepherd seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future.”
“Camille took the best care of our little girl. She followed all of our instructions and was a great communicator with photos and was responsive to our check-ins. We will definitely ask for her services again. Thank you, Camille!”
“Nayira was super kind and accommodating. Great communication and the boys seemed really comfortable during their stay. They got along well with Nayiras friendly Malinois, Karma.”
“Christopher was really easy to work with and flexible. Our dog enjoyed the opportunity to play with another dog who was being watched at the same time. I would use Christopher again when the need arises.”
“Laura took amazing care of our dog Lacy. She had great attention to detail and compassion with our complicated little anxious doggie. My dog had a great time during her stay which allowed me to enjoy my vacation with peace of mind and I would absolutely rebook 😊”
“Joanna was very flexible, kind, and attentive for a 4 night boarding! She sent regular photo updates and took my doggo on many walks despite the rainy holiday week. I’m so grateful that I found her and will definitely take Luca back for my future trips!”
“Our dog stayed here over Christmas and had such a wonderful time! He loved playing with their dog and the other doggie guests and came home happy, tired, and relaxed. We really appreciated the photos and updates and could tell he was treated like part of the family. Thank you so much for taking such great care of him, we will absolutely book again!”
“Selah did a great job watching Tofu for us! She checked in and sent pictures each morning, and was accessible via text throughout our time away from our furry love. She's comfortable with big dogs (Tofu's pretty strong,) which gave me a lot of comfort.. we'll definitely call her again for our next trip!”
“Huge thank you to Rachel for taking such wonderful care of Casper! We could tell the moment we picked him up that he’d had a fantastic time. He came home happy, relaxed, and completely settled. We especially appreciated the updates, which gave us such peace of mind knowing he was in great hands.”
“Renata was a god send when I unexpectedly needed to find someone to take care of my little Penechka during the holiday season. Upon our little intro meet and greet, it was clear she maintained a warm and beautiful home, full of love, and other furry friends for my doggo to be able to spend time with. I felt very comfortable leaving Penny with her for the week I was going to be gone and she gave me regular updates showing how much fun and affection she was getting during her time with Renata and her family. She was also wonderfully flexible with my plans including a last minute one day extension of my trip and shifting pick up times upon my return. I appreciated her taking such thoughtful care of my girl so much and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take genuine and loving care of their fur baby. Thank you, Renata!!”
“Super communicative and understanding, Luna had a wonderful time with him - post operative donut and all. She had a last minute operation prior to boarding and Sean was very accommodating & kind about it, thank you!!”
“Hayley and Arthur are incredible. I am incredibly precious when it comes to who I’d leave my dogs with. Our first stay with them, they were quick and easy to coordinate with. Now, after a much longer extended second stay, I continue to feel confident leaving my babies with them! They seem to really care for animals and understand that they are more than just pets to us - treating them with care and thoughtfulness. Pains me to share how much I love them (because I want them available for me always) but they warrant the good review!”
“Fantastic - it looked like our Snowy had a terrific stay. I get a lot of anxiety leaving my girl with anyone new. After 24 hours I felt much better. Loved getting photos and videos during her stay of what she was doing and who she was playing with.”
“Julieth took great care of Prunella and sent lots of pics and videos during her stay. Her other dogs were sweet and well behaved. She gave her a bath before sending her home. Highly recommend!”
“Jolie is such an amazing sitter that our dog (who doesn’t like people very much) can’t WAIT to see her every time! We’ve been going to her for years now! She sends plenty of updates + photos, and our dog tells us how much fun he had at her place! It’s like she speaks his language (I haven’t figured that one out yet). Anyway, just book her- you won’t regret your dog coming home happy (:”
“Sonia did an outstanding job caring for my two dogs. She was able to take them in at the last minute for a full week, communicated quickly, and sent multiple videos and pictures every day. It really gave me peace of mind knowing they were safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“I booked Ana to take care of my cat while I was away and it was my first time using Rover. She was very communicative, the meet and greet went well, and my cat totally trusted her off the bat. She paid close attention to detail while following my pets regular routine and my pet felt right at home while I was away. Would definitely trust Ana to take care of my cat again, she was great!”
“I usually ask friends to take care of my cats, but this was my first time using Rover, and Marina took care of them. I was honestly a bit worried about having someone I didn’t know come into our home, especially since my cats are quite shy. However, Marina turned out to be someone I could trust more than anyone. I am so grateful to her—if I could meet her in person, I would give her a big hug. She was completely comfortable with us having indoor cameras, which gave me even more peace of mind. Every day, she went above and beyond what I had asked for. She kept me updated on even the smallest things and handled any unexpected situations in a very professional way. Sometimes she brought her young son with her, and I’m sure that brought so much joy to my cats as well. Rover’s system is very efficient and trustworthy, and now I feel like I can travel without any worries. I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Thank you so much.”
“Haley is so amazing! She took great care of our two girls while we were away on vacation. She was super responsive and provided such helpful updates along the way that offered reassurance our cats were in fantastic hands while we were away. Highly recommend booking with her!”
“He was very kind and thorough with my cat. He paid close attention to all the details and asked questions. I really appreciated how careful and precise he was. Great communication and very punctual. Thank you!”
“Sanaz was very polite, prompt, and professional!! She sent timely updates, pictures, and videos of my cat while I was away - and even watered my plants! She is so sweet and I loved knowing she was taking care of my baby. Thank you!”
About: My first experience with cats was discovering 6 kittens under my home when I was 7! Since then I have been fortunate enough to always be around to care for kittens and cats who need homes. I currently have 2 female cats both foster fails. I have cat sat for numerous friends and family members who have pets with diverse personalities. I have experience with very timid cats, and very social talkative ones. I am comfortable being around cats with all types of behaviors and am not intimidated by the fur babies who just need a bit more time and patience to get comfortable!

I'm also a mom of 9 year old twins who LOVE dogs :)
“First time using Rover and so nervous to leave my babies. Emma was so patient and kind with me sending her pictures and long written out instructions to make sure I didn't forget anything. She followed them all and sent me updates. I've never felt more comfortable leaving them with anyone. Thank you Emma”
“Lucia is amazing!! I really can’t say enough positive things. I have two cats, one senior and one very shy. Lucia was great with both of them! My senior requires oral medication twice a day and can be difficult to medicate but Lucia always made sure she got her meds. Lucia was also great getting my shy cat out of his shell and totally won him over. She also provided great pictures and detailed updates. I whole heartedly recommend Lucia!!”

About: Hello and welcome! I’m Allison — a lifelong animal lover, dedicated dog and cat sitter, and trusted caretaker with over 25 years of hands-on experience. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and backgrounds — large breeds, small breeds, rescues, seniors, puppies, and special-needs pups. I’ve been surrounded by animals since birth and was raised to understand and respect all types of pets in their behavior. Throughout my life, I’ve always had at least one dog, along with a variety of beloved compainions. My connection to animals is deeply intuitive — and that bond translates directly into the loving, attentive care I provide. Today, I offer premium, in-home overnight care for pet parents who value exceptional service, clear communication, and a calm, heart-centered approach. I work from home and live on a rare ¼-acre, fully fenced estate in Encino, providing a peaceful, secure environment for your pup. My two personal dogs — a gentle Pomsky and a majestic English Mastiff — are well-socialized and welcoming to all creatures, creating a serene and balanced pack energy. Whether your dog needs daily medication, a steady routine, or simply the comfort of a human companion while you’re away, I tailor every experience to their unique emotional and physical needs. You’ll receive thoughtful updates, beautiful photos, and the peace of mind that your pet is being cared for with true devotion.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs most of my life with my family. I have experience with fostering puppies too. Currently I have one fur baby. I work from home full time so I’m flexible with your schedule. I like to go on walks about three times a day and walks usually take 20-30 minutes. I will be around to play and attend your dogs needs. I also have lots of dog beds that I have collected over the years to make dogs feel comfortable.
“My boys have a really hard time trusting new people they meet, and yet they instantly LOVED Renata and her husband James. Renata sends me photos during the visit which I appreciate so much. I also get to see how much fun the pups are having!”
“Ryan and Abbey took great care of Tobi. They gave us updates all day and were very accommodating! Our Rover request was very last minute and we were lucky to find such great sitters!”

They sent me lots of pictures, which really helped me feel comfortable and reassured while I was away. It was clear that Archie was well taken care of and in good hands. I truly appreciate how attentive and caring they were. I would definitely recommend them and would book with them again! 🐶❤️”
About: Use my promo code for new customers on your first booking: MILENV78068. You can't miss it!🎾🧸🌈🌈 From a young age, animals have always been my passion. I grew up surrounded by dogs, cats, and all sorts of creatures, and I learned to love and care for them from a very young age. My home was always a haven for animals in need, and that experience taught me the importance of patience, dedication, and unconditional love. That passion led me to become a professional pet caregiver. For years, I've had the privilege of caring for countless animals, each with their own unique personality and needs. From playful puppies to senior pets requiring special care, I enjoy every moment I spend with them. My daughter is a veterinarian, so animals have always been part of our lives. Together, we've created a home full of love and respect for all creatures. She has taught me a lot about animal health and well-being, and that experience has been invaluable in my work as a caregiver. I take pride in offering a personalized and attentive pet care service. I understand that each animal is unique, and I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and happy environment for each one. Whether they need long walks, playtime in the park, or just a warm lap to snuggle in, I'm here to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. My approach is very home-like. Instead of a traditional kennel, I offer a family environment where your pet will feel right at home. I'm dedicated to providing them with affection, individualized attention, and all the care they need to feel safe and happy. My services are completely personalized, tailored to the specific needs of each pet. Therefore, my prices may be a bit higher, but I assure you that your furry friend will receive exceptional care and all the attention they deserve. If you're looking for a pet caregiver who will treat your furry friend like one of the family, don't hesitate to contact me. I'd be delighted to meet you and your pet!" I'm a pet caregiver who's dedicated to organizing my time to provide the best care. Contact me and schedule your appointment!! I will be very happy !! "As a pet caregiver, I make sure your furry friend feels right at home, whether it's at my place or theirs. I'll give them lots of love, play with them so they get exercise, and feed them on time. If they need any special care, like medication or anything similar, no problem! I make sure your pet is happy and healthy, so you can have peace of mind."
“My dog had so much fun with Cassie! She was communicative and sent me photos and updates. She was patient with my dog despite her initial shyness. Highly recommend!”
About: As a lifelong dog owner and devoted animal lover, I understand that your pets are cherished members of your family. My approach to pet care is centered on providing a calm, nurturing, and personalized experience that helps your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Having cared for dogs throughout my life, I am attentive to each pet’s unique personality, routines, and preferences. Whether your companion enjoys long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra affection, I tailor my care to meet their individual needs and help maintain the consistency they are accustomed to at home. I take pride in creating a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners through reliable communication, thoughtful attention to detail, and genuine compassion. My goal is to provide the highest level of care so you can enjoy complete peace of mind knowing your beloved companion is in caring and capable hands. I look forward to building a trusted relationship with you and providing your pet with the same level of love, respect, and attention I give my own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life. I work from home, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. My own dog and I enjoy at least four walks around the neighborhood every day, providing plenty of exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. In addition to our daily walks, we go hiking several times a week, and I have a secure fenced courtyard where pets can safely relax, explore, and enjoy time outdoors in the sunshine. Because I am home-based, I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and any special routines your pet may have. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and strive to create a calm, loving environment where they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I care for every pet as if they were my own, with a focus on safety, comfort, routine, and plenty of affection. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, preferences, and daily schedule so they can feel as relaxed and secure as possible while their family is away. In my home, pets receive regular walks, supervised outdoor time in my fenced courtyard, playtime, companionship, and lots of love and attention throughout the day. Because I work from home, I am able to provide a calm presence and ensure pets are not left alone for extended periods. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I strive to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, exercise, medication (if needed), and any special instructions. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos so they can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. My goal is always to create a positive, stress-free experience where pets feel loved, comfortable, and cared for, whether they are staying with me or I am caring for them in their own home.

“I know dogs can’t speak, but Brooke is so kind and loving with her. She spent the last 10 minutes of her time with Dottie on the floor loving her, when she so didn’t need to. Absolutely love Brooke.”
About: With over eight years of hands-on pet care experience, I don’t just “watch” animals — I build real bonds with them. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, quirks, and comforts so they feel safe, seen, and genuinely loved. Every animal in my care is treated as if they were my own, with patience, protection, and affection at the center of everything I do. Their happiness, trust, and tail wags are truly the greatest reward. I am a freelance professional makeup artist working part time, so I have plenty of free time to care for your furry friends and felines! When I care for your pets in your home, I treat the entire space with the same respect and attention I give your animals. I follow their routines closely, provide loving companionship, and make sure they feel safe, calm, and comfortable in their familiar environment. While I am there taking care of your pets, I am also taking care of your home — keeping a clean, safe, and mess-free space for your animal to relax in. You can return to a happy pet and a well-maintained home.
“Kyle is a true joy to work with. He is a top notch professional who has taken care of Randy, a very energetic 2-year old Border Collie for the past week.

About: I have had multiple pets from a very young age, and learning how to care for pets was a big part of my life. I specialize in high-energy breeds, but enjoy spending time with any type of animal. I work a remote job, so the entirety of my day can be focused on animals! I’m very big on consistency and reliability, so bathroom breaks and ample walking time are never things that bother me. I’d like to think the pets I’ve boarded have had a luxury experience. I am super thorough and attentive, and love spending time with pets of all shapes and sizes.
“Mry has been very sweet and patient with my pup Nalu! It’s our very first time searching for a walking buddy and my little one is shy around new people. Communication with Mry is wonderful and we’ve achieved progress together these last few days! I feel safe and happy leaving my pup in her care. We’re looking forward to many more walks together :) Thank you Mry!!”

I have cared for young pups, senior pups and any pups in between and have been trusted by both family and friends alike! I am a performer so my schedule is ever changing based on gigs and contracts. I also work part time at a wine shop during the week. My availability is flexible but I am mostly open during the daytime on the weekends Friday through Sunday.

About: Hello. I’m Karina, and caring for animals has been a central part of my life for many years. In addition to caring for dogs and cats, I have extensive experience working with horses, including high-performance equine athletes. That background has taught me to be calm, observant, consistent, and attentive to each animal’s individual personality and needs. I understand that every pet is different. Some want an energetic walk, while others simply need a consistent routine, patience, and companionship. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for with me. I specialize in reliable weekday lunchtime dog walks and drop-in visits in the Encino area, making me a great fit for busy professionals who want consistent, dependable care. I also offer cat drop-in visits and limited boarding for dogs that are friendly with my own well-socialized dog and cat. You’ll receive updates and photos during every visit so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family! Pet care is something I intentionally build into my weekly routine. I provide consistent weekday lunchtime walks and drop-in visits, making me a great fit for busy professionals who want dependable care while they’re at work. My schedule also allows me to offer weekend boarding and pet care by arrangement. I enjoy having a routine that lets me give each pet my full attention and provide reliable, consistent care. Boarding dogs stay in my home as part of the family, with plenty of attention, exercise, and a consistent routine. I have a secure balcony and easy access to a large grassy area for potty breaks and fresh air. Depending on each dog’s personality and energy level, we can enjoy walks in my quiet condo complex or explore the dog-friendly neighborhood nearby. I only accept dogs that are a good fit for my home and my own friendly, well-socialized dog, so everyone stays safe, relaxed, and happy. My goal is to provide a calm, comfortable environment where your dog feels at home while you’re away. With your permission, I’m also happy to take well-trained dogs on special outings, such as nature trails or to the horse facilities where I spend time, for additional exercise and enrichment when appropriate.
“Anastasia has been walking my dog Zoey for a few weeks now. She has been very communicative, flexible where needed, and gone above and beyond .Zoey loves her walks with Anastasia and we’ll love to keep having her back!”
“Taylor is amazing. She has helped me out multiple times with my high energy pitbull. She’s done house sitting for a week and helps do weekly walks with my dog. It’s such a relief to know my pup is in safe hands and is getting love from Taylor at the same time.”
About: As dog owners ourselves, we believe in a simple principle: we won't do anything for your dog that we wouldn't do for our own. During the time they're with us, we treat them as if they were our own, with full attention and care. What makes our care different is that your dog gets the attention of two people, not one! Both my spouse and I work from home, so there's always someone around for companionship, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. We also know LA life can be unpredictable, so having two of us means we're able to stay flexible and work around your schedule whenever possible. As a clinical psychologist with a background in behavioral psychology, plus hands-on experience having personally adopted and trained a rescue dog, I understand dogs' needs on a deeper level, from anxiety and attachment to motivation and habit-building. Over the years caring for dogs across LA, we've worked with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities, including dogs with picky eating, excessive barking, or high energy levels, and tailor our approach to each dog's individual needs. We always welcome a meet & greet before booking! There's a large, quiet park right by our home where we can chat through your dog's routine and make sure everyone feels comfortable. **First time clients please enjoy $20 off your first booking!** https://www.rover.com/sit/chanwl43421 Schedule Both my spouse and I work from home, so we're available for care any day of the week! Weekdays and weekends alike. This also gives us a lot of flexibility with pick-up and drop-off times, and we're happy to work around your schedule. Whether you need a quick daycare visit or long-term boarding, we'd love to help. Safety, trust & environment In our home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play, and with two of us around, dogs are never left unattended! You'll get regular check-ins and updates so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands. I follow your dog's routine closely and keep safety top of mind, whether it's leash rules on walks, feeding instructions, or respecting boundaries around other pets (We have three playpens! on hand, so we can easily section off space when needed). Our back patio is fully fenced, so dogs can enjoy off-leash time to run and play safely. We've made sure there's nothing sharp or hazardous back there, and we clean up after every potty break and hose down the area to keep it fresh and sanitary. Neighborhood dogs stop by for potty breaks too, so it's also a great spot for your pup to socialize. Being a typical Asian household, we don't wear shoes inside and that same care extends to keeping things clean for your pup! We vacuum 3-4 times a day, wash food and water bowls after every use, and wipe down paws with baby wipes (dog-wipes on request!) after walks.
“Cody is on time and ready to go every time we book him! Finn and Biscuit both love him and he is awesome about working with any request we have or instruction we give. We are excited for future fun times with Cody!”
About: I'm a lifelong and committed animal lover. My family always had pets and I have an innate connection and affection for all animals. My family had Old English Sheep dogs (also a horse and cats) so I'm very comfortable around animals. Pets usually sense this and take to me immediately. I have a quiet, gentle nature and will do everything I can to make your pet feel safe and cared for and for you to trust that your dog is in the best hands. I'm very physically active and am more than happy to take energizing walks and hikes with your dog or play unlimited games of fetch. I’m also neat and organized and will leave your home cleaner than when I arrived. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I have extensive experience with anxious dogs, senior dogs, puppies, and dispensing medication for both cats and dogs. I can provide excellent recent and local references as well. Can’t wait to meet you and your pet soon! I am currently home full-time and available for drop ins, dog walks, and house and dog sitting. I’m available last minute and anytime day or night, including overnights. My schedule is open and flexible so I’m able to spend quality time with your pets. I provide care in the owner’s home. I’m happy to stay overnight, provide drop-in visits, or dog walk. I like to have as much information as possible and ideally meet in person before accepting the job to see if we’re a good fit.
About: As a passionate and reliable pet sitter, I absolutely love caring for animals of all kinds, with a special soft spot for senior pets and playful kittens. I make sure to follow your care instructions and create a personalized routine to keep your furry friend happy and comfortable while you’re away. Having rescued many pets over the years, I understand how important your pet’s well-being is. That's why I started pet sitting — to help busy pet owners like you while providing the same love and care I give my very own pets. My fur babies and I enjoy daily walks, lots of playtime, and outings around Lake Balboa where Iv'e called home for over 20 years! Plus, I’ve taken courses in Dog CPR and First Aid to ensure your pet is in safe hands. Let’s set up a meet and greet soon — I can’t wait to get to know you and your beloved pet! I’m excited to be your pet sitter! Working from home allows me the flexibility to give your furry friends all the love and attention they deserve. I prioritize sticking to your pets' routines so they can relax, have fun, and feel completely at home with me. I can’t wait to meet your adorable fur babies! I want you to know that I'm fully committed to following your instructions during my stay. Ensuring the safety and health of your pets is my top priority. You can be confident that I will take exceptional care of both your pets and your home while you’re away.
About: Ever since I was was about 13, I've always been the person to call if someone was going out of down and they needed someone to watch their dogs. I've been able to properly care for 7 dogs at most at a time. I love dogs and will do my very best to make sure they are well taken care of. I love being outside, so I am more than willing to go outside with your dog whenever they need or want to. Making sure your dog gets as much love (if not more than) as you give them is a big priority for me. I've taken care of breeds from Chihuahuas to Saint Bernards. You can trust in me to be the best sitter for your dog.

“Our dogs stayed with Annabelle & Ben for one night as a trial before our longer, upcoming trip. Everything went really smoothly and we appreciated their communication with frequent updates and pictures on how they were doing.”
“Could not be happier with my experience! They are extremely genuine and fun to work with. My two year old German Shepherd seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future.”
“Nayira was super kind and accommodating. Great communication and the boys seemed really comfortable during their stay. They got along well with Nayiras friendly Malinois, Karma.”
“Christopher was really easy to work with and flexible. Our dog enjoyed the opportunity to play with another dog who was being watched at the same time. I would use Christopher again when the need arises.”
“Joanna was very flexible, kind, and attentive for a 4 night boarding! She sent regular photo updates and took my doggo on many walks despite the rainy holiday week. I’m so grateful that I found her and will definitely take Luca back for my future trips!”
“Selah did a great job watching Tofu for us! She checked in and sent pictures each morning, and was accessible via text throughout our time away from our furry love. She's comfortable with big dogs (Tofu's pretty strong,) which gave me a lot of comfort.. we'll definitely call her again for our next trip!”
“Renata was a god send when I unexpectedly needed to find someone to take care of my little Penechka during the holiday season. Upon our little intro meet and greet, it was clear she maintained a warm and beautiful home, full of love, and other furry friends for my doggo to be able to spend time with. I felt very comfortable leaving Penny with her for the week I was going to be gone and she gave me regular updates showing how much fun and affection she was getting during her time with Renata and her family. She was also wonderfully flexible with my plans including a last minute one day extension of my trip and shifting pick up times upon my return. I appreciated her taking such thoughtful care of my girl so much and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone to take genuine and loving care of their fur baby. Thank you, Renata!!”
“Fantastic - it looked like our Snowy had a terrific stay. I get a lot of anxiety leaving my girl with anyone new. After 24 hours I felt much better. Loved getting photos and videos during her stay of what she was doing and who she was playing with.”
“Julieth took great care of Prunella and sent lots of pics and videos during her stay. Her other dogs were sweet and well behaved. She gave her a bath before sending her home. Highly recommend!”
“First time using rover and I don’t really know how my dog would react with other sitter. I was pretty amazed how my dog got along pretty quickly with James. Definitely would recommend James for any pet sitting. He keeps you updated with everything throughout the whole day. For sure I’ll be coming back again here with James. Thanks James!”
“Amazing dog boarding very communicative and caring. Received news, photos and videos on how my dog was doing every day. Was really lovely and reassuring. Would book again without hesitation.”
“Best boarding experience my pup has ever had! He’s not exactly the easiest boy to handle given how energetic he is, but after our initial meet and greet with Ashlee I had 0 concerns. She told me about the dog rescue organization she created so she definitely will give your pup the care and attention they need. She also took my dog on pack walks and long hikes around Runyon Canyon! She has so much space on her fenced off property and the sweetest dogs of her own that all played well with my pup and helped keep him busy! I genuinely believe he had a better time than I did while I was away. He came home cuddly and so tired so I know he had a blast! Would recommend her to all of my friends and everyone else reading this”
“Hasmik was great. I had never left my baby with anyone. She took such good care of him that he didn't even miss his mom and dad. He is our first (human or otherwise) so we were very nervous. She sent lots of photos and put my mind at ease. She will be my go to sitter.😊”

“Alexis was fabulous. 10 stars. This was the first time using the app and she was the first person I found. She was very responsive and we had very clear communications. The first day my two pups went to her house they were clearly not happy when I dropped them off but then I started getting photos of how well they were integrating. She walked them, loved them and when I took them back the second day they were reaching for her when I went to go hand her the dogs. She had a clean home and the experience was just amazing. I would highly recommend Alexis for all your doggy needs. She was great.”
“Erin has been fantastic with our senior pup Skittles. This was Skittles' second stay but first overnight stay and even with his associated age-related behavior, Erin was super patient, kind, loving, and kept in touch with us the entire time. Thank you again so much, Erin, for being so great with our fur baby!”
“Stacey took great care of Saja! Upon meeting Stacey, it was clear that she was nice, professional, and dedicated to providing the best experience possible for our little guy (which she did!). Great with communication and sent photos every morning. Will certainly book again!”
“Absolutely loved Nicole! She was great with our pup and sent so many photos and updates that I knew our little one was in good hands. Awesome communication. Highly recommend!”
