“Irina and her family were absolutely wonderful and treated my car with so much love. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to leave their pet over a vacation!”
About: I have been around dogs my whole life. Starting with having a few dogs as pets growing up, I learned to care for them and train them. I then started working with dogs at a grooming salon. I was working as a bather for about 3 years before I acquired a position as a dog handler in a boarding facility where I learned how to do Obedience Training and I never let go of that specific field. I continue to work in Dog handling and provide care in several aspects of a dog’s health. I am able to provide baths, trim nails, administer Medications, reinforce Good behavior through consistent training and mental stimulation. I love working with dogs and serving those who love dogs as well! I work in a Dog boarding facility very close to my home, and therefore have a lot of hands on experience caring for pups. While dogs are in my care, I am able to offer services like nail trimming and ear cleaning at the moment. I am hoping to add bathing services very soon. I typically take a lot of walks in my free time and would be happy to take your pup along with me. Your dog’s comfort and safety are always a priority. While I do work close to home. My wife is also home a lot, so you can be sure that your pup is never left alone. My home features a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy outdoor time under supervision. Inside, the home is equipped with both air conditioning and heating, ensuring your pup stays comfortable year-round, whether it’s a hot summer day or a chilly evening. I strive to provide a clean, safe, and relaxing environment where every dog feels right at home.
“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!”
“Margaret is an incredibly kind, loving and generous dog-sitter! She watched our sweet but timid boy for a week during the holiday season (thank you for your availability! We were concerned that no one would be able to watch him during that busy time) and took such great care of him. She walked him in the pouring rain, bought him treats and gifts, and even took the most adorable pictures of him in holiday gear. She texts updates and pictures several times and day and responds to texts immediately. She treats all the dogs she cares for as if they are her own. You won't find a sweeter person to leave your baby with. Thank you for giving us such comfort and peace of mind!”
“Yvonne was so so amazing! I booked with her last minute and she cared for my pup so well! I received plentiful phots every day (amazing photographer too)! She communicated everything so clearly and timely. Will definitely book with her again if chance encounters!”
“We live several hours away and needed someone to watch our pup while we went on a cruise. I searched for someone and found Yulia! She had experience with dogs, she has no dogs, she takes one client at a time plus dogs are allowed on the bed. PERFECT 👌 Yulia knew how hard it was for me to leave Taco. His first time. She sent photos right away! She let me know how he was feeling and how he did throughout the day and night. We had awesome communication during his stay plus photos and videos. They truly helped me. He went on long walks and received a lot of loving from both Julia and her husband. Mr. Taco also learned a new trick!! She taught him to lay down! I'm truly thankful and grateful to have found Yulia. I hope she's available when I need her next! I may change my schedule to fit hers! Warm hugs. ❤️”
“Absolutely amazing experience. Alex genuinely loved and cared for my dog with photo updates throughout the stay! Highly recommended and I will be a repeat customer!”
“Tamar was fantastic! She was very responsive and asked great questions before watching my dog Rus. She sent a ton of photos while Rus was with her, and I could tell he was super comfortable and having a wonderful time. I would highly recommend Tamar!”
“Sandra and Alfonso were absolutely wonderful. Such a sweet family that made sure to accommodate exactly what my highly anxious dog needed. I would recommend them to anyone!”
“Kimberly is awesome! I’m relieved when my dog-Butter is with Kimberly and her family. She makes sure of care info and sends lots of photos. Butter seems to have a good time at Kimberly’s place playing with whole family which is the best!🙏🏻”
“David took great care of my dog, Max. Max couldn’t stop talking about all the adventures they went on, and shenanigans they got up to. He’s got weird eating habits (Max, not David), but they rolled with it and I’ll definitely be using David for future bookings. Happy senior pup!”
“Magdalena took care of my dog Marty overnight. She sent many updates with photos/videos. Marty had a very eventful and active stay. He was very happy and Magdalena took great care of him. She also agreed very last minute when I had to leave town, which was hugely appreciated. I would absolutely use her services again.”
“Bethanie is amazing caregiver for Bom. She took great care of Bom — she sent multiple photos of Bom daily, walked them as much he wanted, notified us about other dogs that will be staying with Bom. Overall, I highly recommend Bethanie to anyone who wants great care for their dog”
“Barbara is a lifesaver! I had a last minute booking and she accommodated. She was very caring for my dog while he had an illness. She updated me everyday about Diego’s condition, I knew he was in good hands. She’s was very attentive with Diego’s schedule. Diego had a good time with her. Thank you Barbara for taking care of my loved one.”

“110% thrilled with my experience with Megan! She dropped in for house visits to feed and clean the litter box for my cat, Simon, and she was very communicative all along the way. I never got to meet her before trusting her to care for my cat, but I felt so comfortable with her based on our messaging conversations that I trusted her without a face-to-face meeting. Very happy with my Rover experience and my Megan experience! Thank you again, Megan!”
“My fur babies were very safe with Alicia, everytime I am out of town she always my go to person to look after them. She follows instructions and provide pictures and videos to update me daily on my babies. Giving her 5 star for an excellent service.”
“As always rachel was amazing!! She’s very communicative letting you know when she’s heading over, there, and what’s going on. Our cats had some incidents and she took care of them. She also spends time playing with them- one of our cats is more shy with strangers and she even got him out. We’re so grateful we found her as a sitter!!”
“KC has taken care of Poki for us twice. Although Poki is usually stand-off-ish, she warmed up to him very quickly. KC is very reliable, accommodating, friendly, and professional.”
“Nikki was a great sitter for my cat while I was away! She was very thorough with daily care and letting me know how my cat was doing each day. I appreciated how communicative and flexible she was as well! It brought me a lot of relief knowing how well looked after my cat was while I was away. Thanks Nikki!”
“Jessica took incredible care of our fur babies. She followed instructions and the schedule to a T, and our girls were very happy and well taken care of when we came home. Cannot thank her enough for giving us the peace of mind to know they were under her care while we were out of town. Definitely recommend and will. work with her again.”
“Traci did a wonderful job looking after our two cats during the holiday season. They were so happy and relaxed when we came home! Her visits are always detailed with thoughtful notes on their moods, feedings/litter boxes, medications, and playtime sessions. Our cats have been looked after a few times by Traci and are becoming comfortable and affectionate around her. We love checking in at the end of the day to look at her cat photos and notes, and are very lucky to have found an incredible pet sitter! Thank you Traci!!!”
“Alicia was amazing with our two kitties. She was extremely responsible, communication was excellent--she sent great, detailed narratives and fantastic photos from every visit--and she bonded incredibly well with our cats. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
About: Cats are just incredible. I guess you could say I’m pretty obsessed. Currently my two cats are great, however one has some health issues. As a result I have experience administering meds calmly and peacefully. As much as I cherish my own cats, it makes me happy to spend time with others, especially when their humans are gone and they might be feeling lonely.
“Jenna is always very patient with Nico and very detailed in the notes/updates that she leaves for us. She's very knowledgeable in dog behavior and takes great care of Nico whenever she visits. Thank you!”

“Irina and her family did a wonderful job looking after my two cats for 5 nights. Her communication was great, they were very flexible and accommodating, and most importantly very sweet with the cats - who came home clean, healthy, and happy. I would be happy to have them watch my cats again.”
“This is our second time using Jenna to drop in on our cat a couple times each day while we were out of town. She sent awesome pics and updates with each visit. But the best part is that we came home to a very happy cat. She’s amazing. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve always had pets at home, so caring for animals is a natural part of my life. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with them. I treat every pet with the same care and love I give my own. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule. This allows me to easily fit pet care into my daily and weekly routine and give pets the time and attention they need. I make sure pets feel safe, calm, and comfortable by following their routine, keeping a clean space, and giving them gentle, attentive care with love and respect.
“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.”
“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!”
“Irina met me right on time for dropoff and pickup, was extremely friendly, and kept me updated with plenty of photos throughout the day. I felt completely at ease knowing my dogs were in excellent hands with her. I would totally leave my dogs with her again!”
“Chris and Edward were excellent! Great communication and friendly. Home is lovely and clean and in a nice neighborhood. I received regular updates and felt my dog was in good hands. I would definitely work with them again and would recommend to anyone looking for great pet sitters.”
About: I've had pets my whole life and got a lot of experience with different personalities through fostering and volunteering with rescues such as BFLA. I also have a lot of experience with pets who need regular medication. I work at home with a flexible schedule. I have the ability to take care of your pet whether it's for a few hours, a day, or more! I have a very friendly dog and cat. I have a gated house with an outdoor area but no grass or dirt. If boarding at mine, the pet will need to be friendly with my own pets.
About: Hi there! 👋🏻 I’ve always had pets growing up as a child, and my love for them has only grown stronger into my adulthood. I have a passion for learning about and understanding all types of animals. My experience in pet care comes from caring for my own pets, helping family and friends, and volunteering over the years. Additionally, my mom owns a dog shelter where I’m constantly involved, and I also foster dogs from a local shelter 🐕 This passion has naturally evolved into my career as a pet sitter and dog walker, where I get to spend my days caring for animals and giving them the attention and love they deserve. I believe every pet has its own personality, and I love discovering what makes each one unique, building trust and a special bond with them. There’s nothing more rewarding than seeing a pet’s happy face after a long walk or a day of companionship I’m currently working remote and at home, which means I can take care of pups and cats anytime of the day. I have a very flexible schedule! I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs 🐶🤍 It would be my privilege and pleasure to uphold all safety, trust, and rules required by the owner for the well-being of their pet • Walks You’ll receive a map of our route, a report on your pet’s activities, a detailed summary of our time together, and lots of cute pictures. This includes feedings and medications if needed (extra charge may apply for additional services). I’ll keep you informed when I’m on my way and when I’ve left ~30 minutes service~ • Drop-ins You’ll get a report with plenty of photos of your pet! This service includes feeding, playtime, a quick potty break, and medications if required (extra charge may apply for additional services). I’ll keep you informed when I’m on my way and when I’ve left ~15–30 minutes service~ ❗️Important information: — I double-check all doors after leaving to ensure they are properly locked and secured — During walks, I do not greet people or other dogs for safety reasons — I do not unleash dogs at any time for safety and control → If you have any questions don’t be afraid to shoot me a message and ask away *During the peak season, please note that I have a flexible schedule and can provide services within a window of up to 30 minutes before or after the time you originally requested. Typically, the service is still performed at the time you've specified *I specialize in working exclusively with non-aggressive dogs&cats ❗️Please share all essential information I should be aware of in order to provide the best possible care for your pet ❗️If possible, I recommend booking my services in advance to secure your preferred dates and times for future bookings ❗️I offer discounts for private clients, feel free to reach out and we can discuss the details
“Django is delighted to have made 3 new friends, Sandra, Alfonso and their cute and rambunctious dog, Baxter. He was welcomed into their home like an old friend. They provided him everything a dog needs for contentment: attention, affection, stimulation, and snacks! He was his usual apprehensive self when he arrived but within 20 minutes he was chilled out on the sofa. We're both looking forward to his next visit. One more thing: thanks for sharing, Baxter!”
About: I have a 4-year-old intact male pug of my own who love and take great care of. I am knowledgeable on what foods dogs should eat, what plants and ingredients to avoid, and how to make sure they are fit and healthy. I treat my fur baby like family and I would take care of yours the same because I know how stressful it is to leave your family with a stranger. I have taken care of pets of friends before to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets. I can also administer medication as needed. I am currently at home full-time and live in a walkable neighborhood. While my apartment may be small, I make up for it by keeping active and taking long strolls around my neighborhood. I live at home with family but I have converted the living to a room to fit my sleeping needs as well as provide space for a living room. It is enough space for my fur baby as well as your own pup as long as they are not too large. I make up for the small space by keeping active and taking long strolls.
About: Last year I said goodbye to my 17 year-old dog Max, just a few months after my cat Scotty passed away suddenly from kidney disease. Thankfully, Scotty's sister Star is still with me and thriving, but I really miss being around and caring for other animals. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and the gentle care they require. I'm also very familiar with younger dogs of all sizes. And I've fostered a lot of cats - mainly kittens - which is how Star and Scotty originally came into my life. I would love the opportunity to care for your pet - whether it be walks, drop-ins, boarding or pet-sitting. I work part-time, teaching improv and also teach at an academy for gifted and neurodivergent homeschool students. The classes are short and nearby (and are not every day) so I'm never gone for more than 2-4 hours. Which leaves me plenty of time to spend with your pet! I'm available for home visits, walks throughout the day, boarding, and/or pet sitting any day of the week. I live in a residential neighborhood in the Somerset section of Glendale, perfect for walks. My apartment is a large one-bedroom I share with my cat Star, who is very affectionate and easy-going - she'd love to keep your pet company!
“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: Hi! Welcome! I have been a cat mom for 16 yrs, but sadly my beloved cat, Mittens passed away in May 2025. I miss him dearly! And I deeply miss having a fur baby in my life! But since I’m not ready to get a new pet, I would like to give my love, attention and experience into taking care of other people’s pets! I am extremely experienced with taking care of cats and I have taken care of family and friend’s dogs before, and now several times professionally on Rover, that it’s made me fall in love with dogs just as as cats! I absolutely love and enjoy taking care of both dogs and cats! And they both have their own wonderful and amazing charms! 😁 I work from home so I am always at home, so it makes it easy to take care of pets and give them all the attention and potty breaks that they need. I am available for boarding or pet daycare at anytime, so please feel free to contact me whenever you would like. I live in a one bedroom apartment that is 1000-1500 sqft and I don’t have a backyard or personal balcony, but live in a very safe residential neighborhood, so walking dogs outside at anytime of the day is completely safe and fine. My living room is a reasonable size (1000 sqft), which is why I only board small to medium sized dogs; however, I work from home, so I’m always able to take the dogs out to get some much needed air, sun and exercise daily, so they don’t get too cooped up or bored indoors. I also always make it a priority to turn the AC and fans on at my place, so they can stay cool and comfortable at all times. Furthermore, I have used the Rover App before to have my own late cat boarded with a pet sitter on here, so I fully understand the comfort and the need for owners to have pet sitters send photos, videos and daily updates of their pets to them, therefore, I always make that a priority and I am more than happy to do that! I firmly believe and take it very seriously that a pet sitter should always respond immediately and be absolutely communicative at all times!
About: From exotic to domesticated animals, I have been loving and taking care of them. Always and forever will have space in our hearts and home. I am available most days since I work from home and have time to watch and care for your fur babies. I enjoy walking and play time outside. The yard is fenced and we have a shed at the back that can be a safe space for pets and they are welcome to explore the space.
About: Hello, my name is Charlie! I have been a dog owner for 13+ years and recently said goodbye to my best friend. I have missed having a dog around and started pet sitting for friends and family and absolutely loved it. I have a house in Glendale with a fenced in backyard in a very safe neighborhood. So whether it's a day time visit or a fortnight stay, I have exactly what you need. My top priority is SAFETY and I will watch your dog like a hawk while they are with me. I know the hardest part of travel is leaving your pet with a stranger so I strive to make both pets and owners feel comfortable. I am a part time actor and have a very open schedule so your pet will never be alone for long periods of time. I love to cuddle on the couch, take walks around the neighborhood or play in the yard. Please let me know if you have any questions for concerns, thanks! I am a part time actor so I have a lot of free time waiting around for auditions haha! I typically spend some time at the gym but otherwise I am home all day and available for your pets! I have a fenced-in backyard in a very safe, walkable, neighborhood. My top priority is safety and I promise to keep a close eye on your dog especially when outdoors. I have no other pets in the home so they will get all my focus and attention and I do not invite others over while your pets are here, so there will absolutely be no strangers around them. Happy to accommodate any special requests (medications, vet visits, feeding requirements, necessary lullabies lol)
“Eames is exhausted after a very fun day with Teresa and her family. Thank you for all of the updates and for taking such good care of him. We hope to see you guys soon!”
“Khalani was awesome! Super quick to respond over text and sent photos throughout the day. Banksy seemed like he had a great time playing with her dog Buttercup. Would absolutely use her again in the future for daycare!”
About: I grew up with cats and have always loved animals, but dogs have my heart these days — I have a 4-year-old dog of my own. Due to a recent life change, I only have him with me a couple of weeks a month, and I miss having a dog around way more than I expected. That’s what brought me to Rover — I want to fill that gap by giving another pup the love and attention I’d normally be giving mine. I have hands-on experience with puppies as well as small to mid-size dogs. I live in a multi-family home in Silver Lake with a fenced yard, in a walkable neighborhood that’s great for daily walks and sniff breaks. I also have the flexibility to work from home, so when I have a dog in my care, I’ll be around at home. I’m flexible most days of the week. Since I have the option to work from home, I’m able to be with your dog all day. I live in a multi-family home with a fenced yard in a walkable Silver Lake neighborhood — great for daily walks and outdoor time. Before any dog comes to stay, I make sure to dog-proof the space, putting away anything they might be able to reach or get into, so it’s a safe environment from the moment they arrive.
“Wow, I can’t say enough great things about Jessica, Zach, and Fang!! My dog was immediately comfortable with them all (even though she can be nervous around men, she loved Zach). She had great play time, walks, and comfy naps. I got cute picture updates throughout the day, and she came back calm and sleepy. Can’t wait to book them again!”

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'm a dependable and caring dog walker with hands-on experience raising and handling my own 70 pound, high-energy Sheepdog, Snoopy. Prior to Snoopy, I had a 60 pound Labrador Terrier Mix. I understand that energetic dogs need exercise, patience, structure, and plenty of attention. I'm available for weekday walks while my kids are at school and would love to help give your dog a safe, enjoyable break during the day. I'll follow your instructions carefully, keep you updated, and treat your doggy like famil. I am currently a stay-at-home mom and looking to go back to school part-time. My availability is pretty flexible so I am able to accomadate your pups needs. I enjoy the outdoors and dogs very much so with dog walking I get the best of both worlds. I prefer not to have headphones on while taking out pets so that I can be present and very aware of my surroundings. Your pup will have my complete attention!
“Our baby isn't used to being walked by anyone else - although he was stubborn about walking with Sean, Sean was great about keeping in text contact, giving him a bathroom break, and playing with him in the house. Thank you Sean for doing a great job with our large puppy!!!”

“Dan is an excellent walker! We’ve gotten into an amazing routine with him helping us with our pupper’s exercise/morning needs on our busiest work day! Guppy is so excited to spend time with Dan and we love our Friday morning check ins with him! Highly recommend working with Dan and booking recurring walks has been a game changer! Thanks Dan!!!”
“Rachel was a fantastic with our new rescue dog, Winnie. Winnie is very shy and easily scared - Rachel understood all of her feelings and did the exact right things to get her comfortable. Winnie warmed up to her very fast!!! Rachel was also very communicative with us, which was so reassuring and helpful. Thank you Rachel!!! We are looking forward to booking her again.”
“Jessica was great! She has great communication and responded quickly. Chopper looked very happy on his walk. I will definitely book for future walks! Thank you.”
“KC is such good vibes. Lupe loved him from the start. They walked a long distance in a short time and she came straight to nap after their walk, an epic success. Will definitely hit him up again! Thanks a ton KC!”
“Ryan did a great job with my dog who is hesitant around new people. He is quick to respond, up front and clearly very knowledgable about dogs. Definitely will book him again!”
“Chris was awesome! Our dog is high energy and he was great with her. He was punctual, easy to communicate with, sent pictures, and was loving with our pup.”
About: I love all animals and I have experience in lots of different animal care, including aquatics and exotics. I myself have two cats and a dog, and I have helped out folks with many different species, including husbandry. I’m so excited to meet your pet! Every morning my cat kids wake me up around 5:30/6am. The cats and I eat our breakfast together, Babygirl gets her meds, and then just spend the rest of the morning lounging and relaxing. When the senior dog wakes up, he gets his meds and breakfast and then it’s walk time!! Lunch time the cats each get a little churu treaty, and they spend some time playing before afternoon naps. They basically bounce back and forth from silly time to deep sleep for the rest of the day, then it’s dinner time, walkys for Kenji the dog and more playtime, then bed. Pets aren’t “spoiled,” they are cherished. Taking care of beautiful creatures that love us and make us their whole world is a gift. They deserve kindness, compassion, and respect. I love all animals as an extension of the love I hold for my own, and I can’t wait to meet yours and give them love and care.
About: My name is Nubia and I have loved and owned dogs pretty much my whole life. I love taking dogs out to explore and getting to know them. Who’s day doesn’t get better when seeing a dog. I’ve also been doing Wag for about 6-7 months now and it’s honestly the best thing I’ve ever done. There’s been walks where I have had to walk the smallest dog and then there has been times where it’s the biggest dog. I do take treats on my walks for those that need it for motivation, to sit and stay or basic commands during the walk. I have been getting compliments about my long distances so you won’t have to worry about your dog not getting tired. 😌
About: With years of dedicated pet care experience, I've looked after a variety of animals, from dogs and cats to birds and rabbits. My passion for pets is evident in the attention and love I provide, making sure each one is healthy and content. While I don't have pets presently, my routine eagerly anticipates their presence. I dedicate time each day to care, ensuring they're happy, active, and loved when they come my way. In both my home and my clients' homes, I make sure that safety, trust, and a pet-friendly environment are top priorities. For dogs, this includes secure fencing, leash-trained walks, and supervised playtime. Cats receive cozy, quiet spaces for relaxation and play. I adhere to feeding schedules, administer medication when necessary, and provide ample cuddles and exercise. It's all about making each pet feel comfortable and loved.
About: Pit-mixes, spitzes, hounds, herders, toys, terriers, I love 'em all! I grew-up training the family Aussie, have fostered rescues and live with two rescues of my own. I'm comfortable managing reactive dogs, shy dogs, energetic dogs, puppies and seniors. If you're looking to tucker-out your pup, ask me about turning the walk into a jog - I can get about ~3miles in 30min, depending on where you live and if your pup is fit! I'm currently working freelance and my schedule is flexible. I usually start and end my days with a walk or run and would love to share that with a furry friend I know dogs like familiarity and routine, so I aim to stick as close as possible to what they're used to. Give me all the deets!
About: I have lots of experience taking care of pets. I have had a dog for 8 years, and am a cat owner. I worked at a doggy daycare for a year, and have experience as a dog walker. I love animals and can’t wait to shower your pet in love! I work remotely and therefore have lots of time and a flexible schedule to care for your pets. I can’t wait to meet and care for them. I offer house sitting, dog walking, feeding, cat care, medication administration, and anything else you may need to ensure your pet is happy and healthy.
About: Hi, I'm Emma! Being surrounded by dogs of my own for most of my life, I learned to care for animals at a young age. I am open to being around all animals and have been a devoted cat owner for over a year now. Kittie is very loving and minds her own business when it comes to other animals around. I can relate to the experience of having to leave your pet for someone else to watch. Don't worry, you will get constant updates and photos! My apartment complex has a private dog park for residents and is less than five minutes from beautiful Echo Park, perfect for walks, exercise, and boarding! As a person, I am honest, reliable, and loving. I understand the importance of detail and will follow any routine that you usually follow. I am currently enrolled in college, so my availability would work around a fairly flexible schedule. It would fill my heart to take care of your pup when you aren't available and give them all of the love they need!

“Margaret is an incredibly kind, loving and generous dog-sitter! She watched our sweet but timid boy for a week during the holiday season (thank you for your availability! We were concerned that no one would be able to watch him during that busy time) and took such great care of him. She walked him in the pouring rain, bought him treats and gifts, and even took the most adorable pictures of him in holiday gear. She texts updates and pictures several times and day and responds to texts immediately. She treats all the dogs she cares for as if they are her own. You won't find a sweeter person to leave your baby with. Thank you for giving us such comfort and peace of mind!”
“Yvonne was so so amazing! I booked with her last minute and she cared for my pup so well! I received plentiful phots every day (amazing photographer too)! She communicated everything so clearly and timely. Will definitely book with her again if chance encounters!”
“Alexa took great care of our dog, Brody. She consistently communicated how he was doing while he was in her care, she also sent daily pictures to update us. Leading up to pickup/dropoff, she was very flexible and reliable with times provided. He was clearly very happy and well taken care of in her home, we would absolutely recommend using her for dog sitting in the future!”
“Donghae was absolutely amazing with my pup! From the moment they met, I could tell my dog felt comfortable and cared for. Donghae went above and beyond—taking the most adorable photos and sending regular updates that truly made me feel at ease while I was away. You can tell he genuinely loves animals, and it shows in how happy and relaxed my dog was. I couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Highly recommend and will definitely be booking again!”
“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!”
“Our dog Bodie had such a great stay with Lisa! It seemed like he had a really fun time hanging out with her and her pups. Lisa's communication was excellent. It was very easy to coordinate with her. We'll definitely book again!”
“This is my second time booking with Daria, and once again, they exceeded my expectations! My dog absolutely loves them, and I always feel at ease knowing my pup is in such caring and capable hands. She provides regular updates, photos, and truly treats my dog like their own. Coming home to a happy, well-cared-for pet makes all the difference. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and loving dog sitter. Thank you again for your outstanding care!””
“Jessica was amazing! She took such great care of my dog, Prim, and sent tons of pictures and updates throughout the stay, which gave me total peace of mind. You can tell she really loves dogs and treats them like her own. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter — highly recommend her!”
“Thank you for being so welcoming to Lulu. She looks like she had a great time and we appreciate your updates and photos. She will gladly go back for a visit.”
“Sydney was absolutely wonderful with Arlo! She took the time to do a meet and greet beforehand, which immediately put me at ease. Throughout the stay, she was super communicative and regularly sent photos so I always knew how he was doing. It was clear she genuinely spent quality time with him — including taking him out on runs, which he loved. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be booking with Sydney again!”
“Lizel is the absolute best! She’s so amazing with my dog Lincoln she’s watched him so many times while I’m away he loves her. Highly recommend Lizel caring for your dog.”
About: A little about me, before the pandemic I walked dogs daily for 3 years for a local dog walking company as a side hustle to acting. The past 6 years I have housesat dogs, boarded dogs, and fed & cared for cats. I am joining Rover to expand back to walking dogs, and to continue feeding cats, boarding and dog sitting. I love animals and enjoy spending time outside and walking. My husband and I do not currently have pets of our own, which allows us to watch friends pets, and now hopefully yours! I have regular clients I walk and care for, and now have the availability to take on more! Whether you need mornings, afternoons, or evenings I am flexible to meet your pets needs. I follow the pet rules of individual clients when in their home. When I am watching pets in my own home they are allowed on the sofas, and the bed. We live in an apartment in a very pet friendly area with optimal choices for walks.
“Erica was so kind and thoughtful with my greyhound Hal. She clearly loves dogs and has a deep understanding of how to care for them. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter!”
