“Bertha was wonderful! I am hesitant to leave my dog with new people but Eugene settled in so easily with Bertha P. She was incredibly thoughtful about pictures and updates, and that made my time away so much more relaxing!”
“We made a last-minute booking with Albina to care for our dog because our original sitter cancelled on us. She was very responsive and sent photo updates of our dog daily. I could tell that he was very loved. She even sent him home with some homemade dog treats! We were overall happy with our experience and will use Albina again.”
“Katrina has taken care of my elderly dog for two weeks while I was on an Asia trip. She was the best person for my dog to look after - kept up with the consistent communication, checked up on his health, and gave him the best walks. When I picked up my dog, he looked SO happy and even looked better!! My dog currently misses her after we left so I need to book her again soon!! 😂”
“Irina was an amazing Dogsitter for Getty! She sent lots of cute photos and updates and kept our boy so happy. She was accessible and great at communicating. I will definitely be booking again!”
“Dan was fantastic with Nancy. I was nervous about her staying with other dogs but he is seasoned and has the feeding already worked out. She had a blast and came home happy. Will definitely book with Dan again!”
“I will definitely use them again. They treated Frank as they would their own. They provided daily updates and pictures which made me feel so at ease. He looked so happy in every photo. He even went back to Elaine for pets when I picked him up so I know he really liked her. They are truly the best. Frank can’t wait to be babysat again.”
“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“Amorn & Adam took care of my Sesame for 4 days and did an amazing job! I could tell that Sesame had a great time and felt very safe in their care! They sent lots of updates and photos/videos, which I’m grateful for, and were very flexible with pick up/drop off. I would 100% recommend them, and look forward to connecting with them again!”
“My dog, Belle is looking forward to seeing Lisa and staying in her home again. No separation anxiety like the first dog-sitting experiences. Lisa is very caring and responsible lady. I am happy that Belle finds her second home.”
“Lily was super professional and really easy to work with. She made sure my dog had what she needed when I went away. Lily was polite and friendly and I’ll definitely be using her in the future. She sent me updates of my dog everyday. Thanks Lily!”
“Barbara was amazing with Sherman! He is always a bit shy at the start and she was very understanding. He warmed up super fast and had a great visit!! If we are in the area again, we will absolutely use Barbara to watch Sherman!”
“Marc and Lori were so wonderful to my Freddie. It was the perfect home away from home. They kept me updated with lots of fun photos, they are extremely responsive and even sent Freddie home with Christmas presents. I would highly recommend!’”
“Conner is great! Went out of town for five days and was not worried about Larry once. He was communicative, took Larry on some awesome hikes, and sent photos everyday. The entire process was stress-free! I would recommend him to anyone looking for boarding services!”
“Julia is the only person I will ever trust my puppy with. She is so knowledgeable, kind, considerate and very accommodating beyond words can describe. My puppy has fear of people and doesn’t trust most strangers, but with Julia, it was an instant trust and connection. She had great time playing with Julia while stayed overnight. I received many videos and photos reassuring the fun times, as if I was there myself playing with my puppy. I want to thank Julia for all the care and time spent for this wonderful stay and would highly recommend her. Can’t wait to book our next visit with her soon.”
“Christine and Alejandro are wonderful people and were just as wonderful with our 2 pups. One of our dogs is very anxious and they really understood that and were patient and got to know her quirks even in a short period of time. They also gave constructive feedback on what training would help her for future stays, which we really appreciated. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and the pictures sent daily showed this, which meant we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about them. We highly recommend Christine and Alejandro"s dog resort!”
“Nancy is truly a gem, we are so thankful to have found her! She kept us updated multiple times a day, amazing communication, and most importantly LOVES our girl. Thank you nancy! 💗”
“Josie is amazing! Kind, thoughtful and an animal lover. Phil had the best week in her home and he keeps dragging me to her house. Very grateful and can’t recommend Josie more highly! Look forward to next time already.”
“I boarded my dog, Louie, for the weekend with Shu (Lily) & Jonathan. The experience was great! Lily was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog Louie. I appreciated the updates and the peace of mind while I was away. I’d absolutely recommend Shu (Lily) & Jonathan for all your pet care needs and would gladly book again!”
“Daria took really good care of our Frenchie. Drop off and pickup was easy and flexible. We have received pictures and videos of him during our vacation which made us happy during our vacation. Thanks, we will book again.”

Cat caregivers near you - Grand Central
Prices are estimates per visit for 1 cat. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I’ve always loved animals, but cats have held a special place in my heart for as long as I can remember. I’ve cared for kittens, adult cats, senior cats, and rescues, always making sure they receive the care, patience, and love they deserve. When my senior cat, Woody, developed a brain tumor and ataxia, I provided him with around-the-clock hospice care and later arranged for him to pass peacefully at home, surrounded by comfort and familiarity. I understand that every cat has their own personality and needs, and I’ll always do my best to make your cat feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
“Was so scared to leave Ronald at home after a health scare but Shay put me right at ease and Ronald was clearly so happy and well taken care of!! I’d give ten stars if I could!”
“Katharine has been a great Rover w my dog. She got her to eat even tho my dog is very picky to eat when we are not home so that to me means a lot and tells me my dog felt safe and secure with her in their visits. I will definitely book her again.”
About: I’ve had some experience taking care of cats, whether it be a friends cat, or a roommates! I’ve helped house sit for my sisters roommate throughout college and I unofficially fostered a friends cat in college for almost an entire year! Although my experience in cats is not as extensive as dogs, I would LOVE to care for your cats as well! I am open to any and every opportunity, just reach out!
“I am so pleased with Ginneh’s care of my fur babies,Winnie & Frido! She took care that they had fresh water everyday & made sure I got my daily pics. I will definitely ask for her again & I hope she will say Yes!”
About: I like to think inherited my deep love of cats from my late grandmother, who always rescued strays. I have lived with cats my entire life and I have professionally cared for them as a volunteer and animal care technician at San Diego's award-winning animal care facility, Helen Woodward Animal Center, as a pet sitter with SD Pet Concierge, and as a sitter with Dog Camp LA. I have experience administering both oral medications and ear/eye drops. My own cat, Zoey, has a heart arrhythmia and takes oral medication twice daily for her condition.
“Corey was great! He took care of our babies so well. Got lots of pictures of the snuggles, updates throughout our visit, and great communication. Will definitely be booking him again!”
“Excellent sitter. Played with our cat, fed him, changed his litter robot and was very observant to things around the house and with our cat (noticed a new bald spot on our cats leg). Would definitely book Madeline again!!”
“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”
About: I very much enjoy caring for cats. I think I’m good about reading their attitudes and mannerisms. I’ve tried to stay up on general info about their behaviors, what they could like and what they couldn’t.
“Tracy was very responsible with our "high needs" kitties, including staying over at our house, 3 meals/day, and giving transdermal meds. The house was clean when we came home and she communicated consistently. Would definitely hire again. :)”
“Per usual, Bella went above and beyond looking after my cat. I never once worried about him while I was on vacation. I received regular photos and detailed updates. Thank you Bella for such wonderful care!!”
“Jacquie was wonderful!! Very communicative, and such a big help. My cat immediately was comfortable with her and it seemed like they had a good time together! Will be rebooking and highly recommend her with any furry friend.”
“My cat Frankie had such a lovely time in her home. I had to be away for several days, and I appreciated her updates and care for my fur baby. Highly recommend”
“Krista did a wonderful job taking care of two kitties while I was away! She is a very dependable and kind soul who had a natural touch with my older cat who needs daily medication. She left my house spotless and went way beyond expectations.”
“Rachael was so kind and went above and beyond to take care of my cats! I loved the thorough updates she sent and I really appreciated how easily she took on the curveballs that came. I highly recommend her!”
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. As a little kid, I would spend hours at my aunt’s house playing with her dogs — my mom would even have to come call me so I’d finally go home! Growing up, I had many different types of pets, but the one thing I always dreamed of having was a dog of my own. I begged my parents for years, and when I finally got my first dog at 13 years old, he instantly became my whole world. From a very young age, I was always the person friends and family trusted with their pets. I watched a friend’s cat while they were away and even cared for my school’s bunny for an entire day! Later on, when I moved to Sydney, Australia, I volunteered at an animal rescue center and spent the next 10 years pet sitting for both dogs and cats — something I truly loved and felt very passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I recently lost my own beloved senior dog, so I deeply understand the gentle, specialized care, and massive amount of love older pets need in their golden years. Because of this, I’m incredibly comfortable monitoring their comfort, administering medication, and making sure they feel entirely safe and relaxed while you are away. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. <3 Since I’m currently home full-time, I have a super flexible schedule with plenty of open availability Monday through Sunday, so I can easily fit into your pet's regular daily routine without a problem. Whether you need a consistent daily walker while you're at work, or last-minute drop-in visits because something popped up, I’m around and ready to step in whenever you need an extra hand." In Your Home: When I come by for drop-ins or to pick up your dog, I treat your home with total respect. I always make sure doors are securely locked, keys are safely stored, and your home is exactly how you left it. Plus, I love giving cats and dogs lots of love, refreshing their water, and making sure they are comfy before I leave. Out on Walks: Safety is everything when we are out on an adventure. I always keep dogs securely on-leash, stay highly aware of our surroundings, and steer clear of any unpredictable situations or unfamiliar dogs. Keeping You Posted: I know how hard it is to be away, so I always send a quick update and some cute photos during or right after my visit. You'll never have to wonder how they are doing!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Grand Central
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
About: I live in an 800sq ft 1 bedroom apartment. I usually keep cats in the bedroom and dogs in the living room or whatever works. If you are not ok with that, please confirm with me if I am boarding any other pets. Not spayed pets are ok and I make sure there is nothing to worry about. I absolutely love pets and even after they come back to their actual home, I still look for them around my apartment. They also get used to me very quickly because I give them a lot of attention and play time. Once a friend asked me to take care of their pet, and that’s when it all started. So I have been taking care of pets professionally for the past 2 years and it has been a real pleasure for me. In my life, I have had 10 cats and 2 dogs (German Shepherd) so I know how to act in any situation, even emergency. I have experience with pets that have separation anxiety. I am strong and can handle even the wildest creatures and treat them gently even if they misbehave. I do not raise my voice and I do not have any strict rules. I won't keep your pet like in a "prison cell". Playing with pets is one of my most favorite things to do. I also love running and if requested, I can take your pup for some physical activity in a park. I always stop and look around before I cross the street and never cross on red light. I love taking photos of pets and if you would like, I can send you photos of them daily. I do not have experience in grooming but I will be happy to give your pet a bath so it's clean and fresh when you pick it up. The most important to me is to create a safe and loving environment for your best friend so you can have peace of mind while you are away. I come from Poland and I am a Polish/American citizen. I am currently a nursing student at LA City College. Most of my classes are online so I spend 70% of my time at home. I have a surveillance camera in my apartment to check on pets and talk to them while I am gone. I do have toys, balls, food bowls, dog and cat beds, and cat scratchers. I can also provide my own litter box (your own litter is preferred). I am a trustworthy and responsible person. Your pet is the most important when it is in my hands. I live in a peaceful neighborhood with a lot of greenery to take dogs on walks. I have no strict rules around my house. I don't mind having your pet on my furniture or have it sleep with me (unless you're not ok with that). I never ever lock pets in the bathroom or cage, or even in the darkness alone. I always leave a small light on. Also, if it is hot/cold outside, I make sure to keep comfortable temperature inside. Kitties love my portable heaters! Also, I have a Sony camera which I use to take pretty pictures of the little ones (if interested, let me know).
“Dione is an amazing sitter and real pro. So happy to have found him through Rover. He is very attentive to my dog’s needs and takes him on many fun walks. Thank you Dione!! Teddy and I really appreciate you😀”
“I definitely recommend Tabitha! She was patient and adaptable to the needs of our dog with separation anxiety. We had great communication throughout, and you can just tell from her vibes she is a great dog person. Thank you so much for giving us peace of mind while we were out! Junie says thank you, too! 😊”
About: My husband and I both grew up with dogs and are huge dog lovers. We share our home with our sweet 20 lb Chihuahua, Bambi. She’s very friendly and great at matching other dogs’ energy - if your dog loves to play, she’ll happily play along, and if your dog prefers more space, she respects that too. She reads the room very well. I run my own design studio, so I’m home most of the time and can give dogs lots of attention throughout the day. We also have a cozy, clean, fully fenced backyard with a tree where dogs can safely potty, play, and enjoy sunbathing. I love working outside in the backyard and spending time outdoors with the dogs. We’d love to connect with more Burbank neighbors and take great care of your pup while you’re away. I run my own design studio from home, so I’m around most of the day and can give dogs lots of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and supervision throughout the day and evenings. We have a clean, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely potty, play, and relax. For boarding stays, please make sure your dog is friendly with other dogs, as we have one dog of our own at home. Thank you!
“Jonalyn was fantastic with my dog! She sent so many photos and kept Mocha busy and got her tired, which is hard to do. Mocha is usually nervously reluctant to separate from me, but every time we went to Jonalyn's, she got so excited. Definitely booking again!”
“Marina and her son Leo are the sweetest! She was very responsive and flexible since the beginning, when I picked up my puppy I could tell that she loved. Highly recommend her to take care of your pups.”
About: From hamsters and lizards, to cats and dogs, I have been a devoted pet parent (and aunt) my whole life. I absolutely adore my Shiba Inu and treat her like the princess she is. I would be honored by the opportunity to walk or hang out with your dog and provide anything they might need. I have experience with training as well as pet-sitting and checking in on dogs of friends and family. I am currently a freelancer and work from home. I can be available with short notice mornings, afternoons, and sometimes evenings. Just let me know and we can work something out (: I live in a home with a fully fenced yard. My dog loves to play out back and on the front lawn. There's plenty of room indoors as well.
“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: I am a long life lover of animals and especially dogs. I had a dog of my own for 15 years and I'm familiar with all stages from a young puppy to elderly care. My home and heart are open and ready to care for some lovable furry friends! I am currently just working from home so I am available for care during the day/night. My schedule is flexible to meet any needs your lovable pet may need. I like to be active so I love walking as well as comforting and cuddling with furry friends on the couch. I love interacting with the dogs so I'm very attentive to what there needs may be and would love to get to know your dog's personality.
About: Trust your beloved pets to a mature, responsible adult. I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. I am a successful business owner and I work out of my home, in close proximity to downtown Glendale, CA. Please Note: We can only accept one dog per visit. Each visiting dog may arrive with a bed, blanket, toys or anything else you think necessary for them to enjoy a sense of stability and security. Each day, we'll send updates, pictures and videos to assure you that all is well with your pet. Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.
“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!”
“Thank you so much Albina!! It was very last minute and bullet had a good time. You were very communicative and the drop off and pick up was very quick. If I was in your area, she would be regular there.”
“Awesome spur of the moment stay. Daria’s can-do attitude and multiple photos throughout the visit allowed us to enjoy our time away without worries. We will look no farther for the perfect petsitter the next time we visit Glendale…we found Daria!!! Many thanks from Chula Cholula’s family 💗”
“Audrey was so sweet and great to Lupe. She was very quick to reply even though our request was pretty last minute. Very flexible and accommodating which I truly appreciate! And Lupe loved her. Will definitely book her again.”
“Isabel took a great care of my dog while we were at the Rose Bowl game. She’s great with communication and was very quick in responding for drop off and pick up. Will definitely use her again next time we visit SoCal.”
About: About Me Hi there! I’ve been lucky enough to share my life with dogs for over 30 years. For the past 16 years, I’ve raised my own pups and for more than 13 years, I’ve fostered and volunteered at various animal shelters in Los Angeles and New York. Caring for dogs truly brings me joy — from playful puppies to gentle seniors (who hold a special place in my heart!). Your fur baby will be pampered, loved, and treated like part of the family. Whether they prefer a cozy nap or a game of fetch, they’ll have plenty of space to play or just relax in my home. I even have my own little hillside nature trail. 🥾🐾 I make sure every dog enjoys nice long walks, fun playtime, and of course, plenty of treats and affection. Does your pup love trails? So do I! Does your pup love going to the beach? So do I! Does your pup love to Netflix and chill? So do I! I also love to bake and prep special treats (all natural and seasoning free) - 100% customer satisfaction 🐶💗. My schedule is very flexible. Taking care of your pups is my priority. I can adapt to whatever your pup’s needs are - no problem! Your pup deserves it all! Lots of exposure to nature! Lots of spots to sunbathe! Lots of trails nearby (if they’re up for a hike). Or if they’re more of a lounger, they can have their pick of dog beds or couches. And of course… lots of love, treats and comfort! My home is completely fenced and gated with a large play area and turfed yard. My dogs are super dog friendly but if your pup needs his/her own space I can provide a separate area for them.

About: I’ve always had pets of my own and have been caring for animals for family, friends, and neighbors for as long as I can remember. I’m experienced with kittens, adult pets, and senior or medically complex animals, including providing around-the-clock hospice care for my own beloved cat after his ataxia diagnosis. I currently share my home with Leon, my one-year-old cat, and Chicken, my 26+ year-old African Grey parrot—both rescues (Chicken was found abandoned and taken in) and very loved. I love caring for pets—cats, dogs, and birds of all types and sizes—and I’m happy to welcome other small animals too, just let me know! I treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection, and I’m happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind. I work from home and my schedule is flexible. My goal is always to schedule any services based on the needs of you and your pet(s). I will always follow any instructions on how you prefer your pet to be cared for. Otherwise, I will always care for them in the safest and healthiest way available. The same way I care for my own pets. Leon is an indoor kitty with unlimited access to fresh air and sunshine from his lounging cots attached to our large windows. He loves his wet food, and his meals are on a “flexible” schedule, and no all day grazing. He receives lots of playtime with his humans and more independently. Of course, he gets brushed, not always with a happy purr, but he gets as much as he will tolerate.
About: I'm a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a small menagerie of pets. I also took care of my neighbors' dogs when they traveled. When I was 13, I started volunteering at my local animal shelter, where I learned how to handle cats and dogs with different levels of socialization. As an adult, I adopted a dog with severe separation anxiety and later managed his other health issues as a senior. I also rescued a feral kitten from the street and then foster failed with another kitten. So if your pet is a rescue and/or nervous around strangers, I will be sure to treat them with extra patience and care. I have a fairly flexible schedule at the moment, so I'm available for both one-time and recurring care for your pets. I would love to make their care part of my routine! It is important that your pet feels safe and like their routine is minimally interrupted while in my care. While I may be a new face, I will be sure to stick to your instructions regarding their routine.
About: I’ve always had a dog in the family growing up so i have experience walking and taking care of them. I love Animals with a passion and would be happy to walk with your precious family members because dogs are family members as well I’m currently working and my schedule changes from morning shifts to night shifts but i would be able to work around it with a heads up. i have a dog of my own and walk her mornings and nights as it is so it wouldn’t be hard to find time I would care for pets the way you would care for a child. i have a secure place to have doggy’s in my home. But for the most part i will be walking with your fur babies
About: My three dogs live with my parents in another country, forcedly. I bathed them myself, cut them and gave them injections if treatment was necessary. The older dog gave birth to puppies, and I raised them. I treat dogs like family members. I temporarily have free time due to moving. There is time for proper care and attention for your pet. Additionally, additional care, hygiene, etc. can be discussed. My daughter is 16 years old, she also loves dogs, she will be able to walk your pet, and will also teach some commands at your request. If the owner wishes, your pet can be given a bath.
About: My name is Andrea, I am 39 years old and I work full time at home. I have a 15 year old daughter and we previously had 3 pets, who have since died of old age. I have taken in many animals over the years and love for them like my own. The positive thing about working from home is that the dogs are rarely alone. I can assure you that your dogs with be very well cared for while you are away! :) About this sitter: Along with pet sitting in my home, I would also be happy to care for your pets in your home as well. Whatever you need, I am here to make this experience the best for your dogs , and to ensure they are cared for and happy! About my yard I live in a nice walking friendly neighborhood and will take your pets on lots of nice walks. I am home all day working from my computer, and will bring your pets out every few hours and play with them throughout the day. I work from home and am there with them all day. I am very active so I do take a lot of walks with your dogs and can also bring them to the park if you’d like! I have a 3 bedroom apartment and your pets are free to roam in all areas. On walks, they will be on a leash at all times and I typically walk away from other people/pets so that there is no potential problem.
“Madeline was great with Oso! I know he appreciated her long thorough walks and she could handle his excitement every time she came over. We will definitely be booking her again!”
“John was extremely good with the dogs, very knowledgeable on handling them. Communication was excellent and John was very flexible with walking them. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again.”
About: Since childhood, I’ve always had pets. My mom taught me to love and care for them, and to see them not just as animals but as part of the family. I’m a stay-at-home mom, but my child goes to daycare, so I have time to take care of and walk your pets. And I’m flexible I stay at home all day, so I can give your child my full attention—playing, cuddling, and doing everything they need to feel loved and not miss you too much while you’re away.
“Highly recommend Mindy for looking after your fur babies! She’s detail oriented, great about following routines, and genuinely loves animals. Whenever we leave our cat and dog at home with her, I trust that she’s going to look after them as if they’re her own. Thanks Mindy (:”
“Sean is great with our pup!! Always on time and responsive and has made her feel comfortable walking with someone else (even with her separation anxiety). Great job!!”
About: Hi! I'm McKenna, an Animal Science graduate and future UC Davis veterinary student with over 2,700 hours of hands-on experience in veterinary medicine, including emergency and oncology care. I've cared for animals of all sizes—from small cats and dogs to large animals—and have experience supporting pets with pre-existing medical conditions and special care needs. I'm comfortable following detailed care instructions, administering oral medications, giving subcutaneous fluids when prescribed by a veterinarian, and monitoring pets closely for any changes in behavior or wellbeing. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or requires extra attention, my goal is to provide safe, compassionate care and give you peace of mind while you're away. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily routine—I work as a veterinary technician, so animal care is what I do professionally every day, and I also care for my four cats at home. I’m already used to managing structured feeding schedules, medication routines, litter box care, enrichment, and monitoring behavior and health changes. Because of this, I’m highly organized, reliable, and comfortable incorporating additional pet care visits seamlessly into my day. Your pet’s safety and wellbeing are always my highest priority. As a veterinary technician with clinical experience, I’m trained to observe subtle changes in behavior, appetite, and overall condition, and to act quickly if something seems off. I follow all care instructions closely, ensure secure handling during visits, and maintain a calm, low-stress environment—especially important for cats. I also make sure doors, windows, and environments are checked carefully so your pet stays safe and comfortable while you’re away.
About: I am a pre-vet student set to graduate with my bachelor's degree next year. I have taken care of many animals my entire life, I have had over 5 of my own (2 dogs, 5 cats, and a bearded dragon)! I currently work at an ER veterinary clinic and I have about a year of experience in general practice veterinary medicine, as well. I am extremely passionate about animals and I truly believe becoming a veterinarian is my calling. I promise to care for all fur babies as if they are my own 🩷 I currently work at a vet clinic, but I will make sure to make time for your furry friends! Animal care is my passion :) I have four cats, always willing to play! If your pet gets along with other pets, they are more than welcome to stay at my house!
“Sarah took great care of my dog and cat - it's so nice to be able to go away and know that they will be fine. I also appreciated Sarah's kind patience with a last-minute change of plans. Many thanks!”
About: Hi there! I’m Angelica, a passionate dog lover and dedicated pet sitter based in the LA/Glendale area. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I understand that every pup has their own unique personality and needs. I’m excited to be back on Rover and meeting and connecting with all fur friends! I currently work part time so pet sitting fits perfectly because it fulfills my afternoons and evenings with fun activities! Who wouldn’t love to dog/ cat sit! Caring for pets in someone else's home while dog sitting requires attentiveness, responsibility, and a genuine love for animals. Here are some key steps to ensure you provide excellent care: Learning about the pet Provide companionship Gather favorite toys Follow house rules Update the owners Monitor health
About: I was the go to pet sitter in my old neighborhood and loved every second! Now that I moved to the big city I want to get back into it. I have experience with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I also used to compete in dog agility competitions so I know a decent amount about training/ handling. I also have experience with Cats, horses, sheep, goats, rodents, and cows! I truly enjoy the opportunity to care for all types of animals and I'm very patient. I have a gentle approach but a tough will. I currently do gig work for film and part time teaching of after school arts programs so I'm very free most of the time :) I am very true to your care guide! However you like your pet cared for that's what I'll do. On top of that, I like to spend time with the animal as much as I can both for their benefit and mine. I give lots of affection and if allowed, treats!

“There are not enough characters to put into words about what an amazing boarding experience I had with Yvonne. She offered a worry free care filled boarding experience for my dog. From the initial meet and greet and her interaction with Isabella, I knew I was dealing with a professional who loves dogs and provides attention to detail in every aspect of care. Her daily photos and updates bridged the distance while I was away. I am a bit reluctant to share this, as I want her all to myself but she is truly a gem”
“My dog, Belle is looking forward to seeing Lisa and staying in her home again. No separation anxiety like the first dog-sitting experiences. Lisa is very caring and responsible lady. I am happy that Belle finds her second home.”
“Lily was super professional and really easy to work with. She made sure my dog had what she needed when I went away. Lily was polite and friendly and I’ll definitely be using her in the future. She sent me updates of my dog everyday. Thanks Lily!”
“Conner is great! Went out of town for five days and was not worried about Larry once. He was communicative, took Larry on some awesome hikes, and sent photos everyday. The entire process was stress-free! I would recommend him to anyone looking for boarding services!”
“Christine and Alejandro are wonderful people and were just as wonderful with our 2 pups. One of our dogs is very anxious and they really understood that and were patient and got to know her quirks even in a short period of time. They also gave constructive feedback on what training would help her for future stays, which we really appreciated. Our dogs were clearly well cared for and the pictures sent daily showed this, which meant we could enjoy our vacation without worrying about them. We highly recommend Christine and Alejandro"s dog resort!”
“Josie is amazing! Kind, thoughtful and an animal lover. Phil had the best week in her home and he keeps dragging me to her house. Very grateful and can’t recommend Josie more highly! Look forward to next time already.”
“I boarded my dog, Louie, for the weekend with Shu (Lily) & Jonathan. The experience was great! Lily was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog Louie. I appreciated the updates and the peace of mind while I was away. I’d absolutely recommend Shu (Lily) & Jonathan for all your pet care needs and would gladly book again!”
“Daria took really good care of our Frenchie. Drop off and pickup was easy and flexible. We have received pictures and videos of him during our vacation which made us happy during our vacation. Thanks, we will book again.”
“Ekaterina and her partner are AMAZING sitters, and I look forward to booking them again. From initial messages to meet & greet, to our dog’s actual stay, they were fantastic sitters. They were so knowledgeable, especially about anxiety and they made sure our dog Jazz felt comfortable and at home. They sent the cutest photos and videos too. And they were accommodating with a super early drop off for a flight. All great things to say about them. Plus, our dog truly seemed happy during pick up :) thank you guys so much for loving and caring for Jazz! 💕✨”
“Jared & Brandie did a great job watching my dog Hazel! They sent lots of photo updates and it looked like my dog had a lot of fun. They were super friendly and easy to communicate with, and I wasn’t worried at all to leave my dog with them!”
“Jessica was absolutely amazing! My dog stayed with her for over a week and had a wonderful time. She sent me tons of pictures and updates and my dog was always doing something fun! I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Angie has taken care of our dog twice now and Dixie always looks so happy in the pictures Angie sends me. Angie is very responsive and we feel Dixie is in great hands with her. Dixie is pretty high energy but Angie handles her very well.”
“Jack is the best dog sitter I found on Rover so far. He was prompt in responses, and we did a meet and greet prior to my leaving my dog with him. He was very responsive before and during the stay. He sent multiple (very cute) pictures every day that put a smile on my face and reassured me that I chose the right person for the job. My dog looked so happy with him that it even made me jealous! Jack is very responsible, and my senior dog needed extra care with medications. Jack was able to perform all the extra responsibilities, and I will definitely leave my dog with him next time!”
“My cat Frankie had such a lovely time in her home. I had to be away for several days, and I appreciated her updates and care for my fur baby. Highly recommend”
“Rita was so wonderful with my boy!! I have a malinois who’s stress-reactive with his stomach, and he had some tummy issues the first couple of days, and she handled it wonderfully! I’m so happy he stayed with her, and I’d absolutely book with her again! I was super stressed about leaving him for a week since he has separation anxiety, but I felt so relieved the second I dropped him off. She’s very caring, attentive, and an absolutely wonderful sitter!”
“Dion is a wonderful pet caretaker! He sitted my giant, elderly 95lb St. Weiler for three days with the utmost care! She was so happy when I came to pick her up like she had one of the best weekends. He too care to attend to her hip problems and everything! Dion is truly gifted with dog knowledge and care. The fact that he had a house with a big backyard for the dogs to play was a huge bonus in my opinion. I would highly recommend booking him as long as he is available.”
“I got super lucky when I chose Kristina and the family to watch my puppy while I went to Boston. They took great care of her and kept me updated every step of the way. I look forward to going back to them!”
“We knew Elena was a great fit as soon as we met her. She’s definitely a dog lover and we felt comfortable having her watch our baby, Birdie, for 2 weeks. Elena sent photos and updates. Birdie definitely had a great time while we were away. We’re very grateful to have found a great sitter and we definitely recommend Elena!”
