“Candy is loving, warm and most of all very professional on how she treats your family member. I especially liked the fact that she has a meet and greet before the stay and gave me great hints on what to bring from home to make it easier for my doggie kid. You can really enjoy your vacation when your kid is at Candy's home. ”
“Wow, what can I say other than I wish I found Nadege years ago!! From the get go she is super responsive & set up a meet & greet immediately. My dog Kramer was immediately comfortable and Nadege had great energy and a perfectly set up dog friendly home. Nadege was also very flexible with Kramers finicky food choices. I was gone for a week and I think she just about sent me photos daily which put me at ease, thanks Nadege!! ??”
“My yuki came back so happy and full of energy. They sent me constant updates and photos during her stay. Seemed like she really enjoyed her time there”
“Brianna was so accommodating and communicative. I accidentally made a mistake of booking a day less than needed and Brianna was so kind to take my dog for an extra day. She was communicative the whole booking and provided photos and updates every day. I would highly recommend her!”
“Ana is amazing, she sent pics and videos to keep us updated during the week Molly was there. It was clear that she took great care of molly and we felt secure knowing she was in Ana’s care! Ana's daughter, Luna, had molly sleep with her. We highly recommended and most definitely would use her again and again.”
“Our dog had another wonderful stay at his favorite home away from home. When we dropped him off, he pulled my boyfriend all the way to the front door with excitement! That made us so happy, and shows just how much he loves visiting Sandi and her husband!”
“Champ had a great time playing in Silvana’s yard with Brian and friends. She sent pics every day of my trip which made me feel at ease for leaving Champ behind for vacation. Will definitely book again!”
“Had a great experience with Andre and Trish watching Obi! Got plenty of updates and videos. She was a very happy girl when we picked her up. We’ll be sure to contact them again for future dog sitting.”
“Once again this as a perfect fit for my dog, Blake. The whole family treats my dog so well that he doesn't want to come home. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.”
“Collin took wonderful care of Winston when we were out of town for 4 days! He was so communicative, sent updates and photos during the stay and clearly made Winston feel at home. Winston came home a very happy and tired boy from his stay. We would highly recommend Collin and can’t wait to work with him again!”
“Rosie very much enjoyed her stay with Dana ... she got to mingle with other (small) dogs, wander outside into a secure fenced yard at will during the day, lie at Dana's feet, play under the garden hose, and generally have a good time. It's obvious Dana takes great care of her charges, and is experienced with old dogs like Rosie. Her home is spotlessly clean, and her yard was tidy and poop-free during our visit. I absolutely recommend Dana as a dog-sitter. I'm not sure Rosie wanted to come home!”
“Had a great experience with Jennifer, again. She sent pictures and updates each day while I was away. I will continue to book her again in the future.”
“I had to take a trip and all my family members were not available. This was my first time using Rover or any other dog-sitting app. I was very fortunate to find someone that I felt very comfortable leaving my older German Shepherd with. Patricia's personal experience with her own pets made me very comfortable in trusting Tyson with Patricia. We met to introduce our dogs and everything from there was smooth sailing. Patricia was fantastic in keeping me up to date with everything and she sent pictures throughout the process. I feel like I now have someone I can count on to care for my dog when I am not available. And that is a great feeling to have!! Patricia is great!”
“It was my first time using Rover, and I’m so thankful that I chose Julie to take care of my dog. She was so kind and helpful, and cared for him as if he was one of her own. He had a difficult time adjusting to his new environment at first, but Julie was so patient with him! I can’t recommend her enough!! Will definitely keep booking her for my dog’s future stays. :)”
“Stacey was very helpful and welcoming to Tessa and made sure to communicate clearly, provide a safe and calm environment, and maintain her routine. Tessa will be back!”
“Ryan and Abby took such good care of bleu for the two weeks I was on holiday. They were very responsive, sent lots of photos daily, and answered any questions that I had. they were also very knowledgeable and sensitive to dogs who might not get along with others, which I appreciated with my senior who can be temperamental. Will definitely book with Ryan and Abby the next time I’m on vacation!”
“This was the first time using Susan and upon meeting her, I was very comfortable with her. She took great care of our dog Carly. I would recommend her and use her again without hesitation.”
“She took great care of Neil and kept us updated throughout the day on how he was doing. This was his first boarding experience, and we absolutely loved it. If I need boarding services again or am driving to LA, I will definitely choose her again and again. Thank you, Nicole! 😊”
“Sean was great with our senior, special needs dog. We feel completely at ease that our little girl was well taken care of. Sean sent us daily updates with photos, and we have already booked him again for our vacation next month. We don't need to leave our little girl anywhere else. My wife and I completely recommend Sean.”

“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!”
“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!”
About: I've pet sat for a wide variety of cats, including overnight stays and live-in care while owners were away. I'm comfortable caring for cats with different personalities and routines, from playful kittens to independent seniors. I understand that every cat is different so I try and give them plenty of attention (or space, if that's what they prefer!). I'll make sure your cat is well cared for <3.
“Haley is excellent with our 4 cats, one of which needs several medications. She always sends a ton of pictures which we especially appreciate on our longer trips. Thanks Haley!”
About: I grew up with various types of pets including dogs, cats, rabbits, various reptiles, and birds! I am an avid animal lover and activist and enjoy meeting new furry friends. I am the type to stop what I'm doing to meet new animals out in public. I am a university student currently with only one class per day over 4 days, I will have lots of time to make sure your loved ones are safe and happy! I always make sure to be careful when opening doors as to not let animals into areas they arent supposed to be in or accidentally getting out when they shouldn't be. I am well aware of plenty of hiding places for critters to go and can intuitively find them. I am also always careful where I walk in case your buddy likes to get underfoot!
“Kathryn took great care of my cat Fancy while we were away for a few days. Lots of photo updates and written descriptions of her visits! Kathryn was a huge help and I will definetely rebook into the future.”
“Selah did a great job taking care of our Joey! She was communicative and sent daily photos. Joey always looked comfortable in the photos she sent which was reassuring. I would recommend her for all your pet sitting needs.”
“Mry is very sweet , caring ,professional and thorough.. She is prompt and personable, and my 3 kitties. Casper, Jacob and Cosmo all loved her !!! Thank you Mry!! You are awesome!! Will definitely go with Mry again! She is Top Notch!”
“Lucia is so wonderful with my two cats. She brushes and plays with them. They are always excited to see her! I never have to worry about being away from home when Lucia watches my two kitties. I highly recommend Lucia - she’s the best!”
“This is the first time I used Rover for my 2 cats, and I'm very happy that I found Erika to take care of those 2 wild things when we visit Japan for 2 1/2 weeks. She came by prior to our trip, we went over things and she was taking notes to make sure things are written down. Me being a total type A, I also made a to-do list. We have cameras throughout the house, and we are very glad to see the cats and Erika hanging out and playing while we were out. Will love to have Erika come back and care for our two fur-babies and I would recommend her to people as well :)”
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.
“My cat needs especial treatment due to his urinary issue. Leyla did a great job, feeding him on time with the exact instruction I asked her plus the medication. I recommend her to ALL cat's parents!”

“Cynthia was wonderful! She was friendly, professional, and very communicative throughout my holiday trip. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She even went above and beyond by bringing my packages inside for safekeeping. I’d happily book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Patty was awesome!!!! So attentive to my babies and sent a ton of photos as well! Very communicative and sweet, on time and reliable. My kitties loved her. I came home to a very clean house. I would absolutely 1000% book her services again! Thank you Patty!!!!”

About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in Los Angeles. I have cared for many breeds, ages, and personalities, including dogs with medical needs such as English Bulldogs. What sets me apart is the level of care and love I give. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine affection. I carefully follow routines, special instructions, and health needs. Our building has a private dog park, which makes potty breaks and daily walks easy and safe. Dogs get regular outdoor time in a secure space without busy streets, helping them feel relaxed, comfortable, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am always at home. I do not work outside the house, so I am able to give dogs full attention throughout the day. I am available every day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods and always have someone watching over them. I enjoy having dogs around and caring for them is part of my everyday life. I care for dogs in my home with lots of love, patience, and attention. I make sure they always have fresh food and water, follow their routines, and take them out for potty breaks and walks three to four times a day. I also spend time playing with them and giving them affection so they feel calm and happy. My building is quiet, dog friendly, and safe. It has a private dog park, which allows dogs to go outside easily without walking on busy streets. This creates a relaxed and secure environment for potty breaks, exercise, and optional interaction with other dogs if they enjoy it. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home.
“Our nervous little puppy Thor really enjoyed his time with Susan. It sounds like it took a day for him to warm up to Susan and the other dogs, since he can sometimes be fearful, but the next day he was running up the driveway, excited to return. He'd come home so tired from playing with the other dogs. Susan seems to have a few dogs there every day, which ended up being great socialization for Thor. She has a big backyard for them to play in, and a patio area inside for them to spend time when it's too hot out. She treated Thor well, and we look forward to having him stay with her again soon.”
“Dana has been providing doggy day care for my pup this past week while I’m at work. We recently moved from San Diego and she has made this transition so smooth and stress free for myself and Turkey. Turkey has made friends and has had a great time at Dana’s place. She has a special dog room for the pups who just wanna hang out and lay around in the air conditioning and a nice patio with toys and fresh water available. I’m so thankful I found her.”
“Michelle has such a welcoming personality. Her family made me feel at ease with leaving YoYo. I didn’t have any concerns. She sent pictures & videos throughout the day. YoYo had a great time. Also, she was very accommodating with my late pick up time. I’ll definitely use her services again. Super thanks 😊”
“So glad I found Brooke! My dog has a big separation anxiety but she came back happy. She sent me photos and let me know how she was doing while I was away. I feel my pup loved her and I’ll def leave my pup again when I need to!”
“As always, peanut had an excellent time. They did a great job with dealing with her lower energy level today and gave her the space and alone time she needed.”
“She was lovely and very understanding. My dog usually has a hard time playing with other dogs or even going with other people but she had no problem and Mason looked happy.”
“Here's a review you can use: Our pup, Koala, loves her time spent at Chris’s house! She always comes back happy and well cared for. I know she’s well-loved and in excellent hands with Chris. We couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter!”
“Sandi was so awesome, and so was her husband. First time using rover, and it was the best experience I could’ve had. she kept in contact and sent pictures of my pup. Their house was a dogs paradise, a huge fenced in backyard and a window that my dog loved. Was not expecting my dog to be so comfortable arround new people but sandi was so welcoming it made my dog feel right at home, couldn’t be more thrilled about how this experience was❤️❤️”
“Maria was INCREDIBLY professional and VERY nice. Milo was spoiled with so much attention and care. I cannot recommend Maria enough. Definitely a wonderfully positive experience. Fantastic communication throughout the day, constantly keeping us informed of Milo’s activities. Will definitely be using Maria again!!”
“Natasha took such great care of my pup and sent a ton of videos/photos during the day. She was very communicative leading up to the stay and throughout the visit. I will definitely be using her again to look after my dog!”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Chan and the care he had for our pup, Otis. Chan was extremely communicative prior to our first meeting and made us & Otis feel very comfortable. During Otis’ stay, Chan was great about sending us photos and updates and you could tell Otis was having a blast. It was great to see him getting along with Chan’s dog as well & he was wiped by the time I picked him up, which is exactly what we wanted! 10/10 would recommend Chan watching your pup.”
“We were very satisfied with Keevon’s work taking care of our baby Happy. Our pup was very excited going to his daycare where he could hangout with his doggie friend Q-Pid. Keevon kept us updated with photos and text messages of Happy’s stay. We definitely recommend Keevon’s service.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner for 25 years. I use to be a zookeeper for 8 years and have worked with exotic animals for over 10. I have basic training skills and am good with large dogs. I am currently working part time and have most days free and evenings as well. Local neighborhood walks or pick ups would be ideal, but not necessary. I currently do not have any other pets. I do have a fenced in back yard and live in a house. Bathroom breaks can happen frequently when boarding.
“Ofelia was a great sitter for our dog Benny. She was communicative and provided updates. Benny seemed to be happy to come back and it’s great knowing he was loved and cared for!”
“Cassie was great and did such a great job with my puppy Rory! BEAUTIFUL photos and great updates throughout the day and I can tell a great time was had! Highly recommend!”
“Renata watched our 1 year old pup for the 1st time last week & I felt very comfortable leaving him with her. I've seen nothing but positive reviews & I can see why. She has a sweet & calm demeanor & her home is nice, neat & inviting with a backyard. She kept me informed on how our pup was doing which is a huge plus & let me know if I needed her longer it was totally fine. I will definitely be taking our Snoopy back! ?”

About: I stand out for my hands on experience caring for pets with a wide range of needs, including senior dogs who require medication morning and night, cats who need medication, and dogs with anxiety who benefit from a calm, patient approach. I’m experienced with overnight care, vet visits, walks, and maintaining consistent routines. I’m reliable, attentive, and prioritize clear communication, providing regular updates so pet owners always feel confident and at ease. I currently have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings, as well as weekends. I’m able to adjust to your pet’s routine and make sure they get consistent care, attention, and exercise. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment for every pet in my care. I will always follow your pet’s routine closely. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort, and safety at all times, and I’m experienced with administering medication and caring for pets with anxiety or special needs. My goal is to make your pet feel comfortable, secure, and at home.
About: I've always loved being around animals and have spent the last 8+ years caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I also have experience with exotic pets, including a snake and a Sphynx cat. I know every pet has their own routine, so I take the time to learn what makes them feel comfortable and happy. Whether it's going on walks, sticking to feeding schedules, giving medication, or just spending quality time with them, I'll care for your pets like they're my own. I also love sending photo updates so you can relax knowing they're in good hands. I work remotely, so I’m able to provide pets with plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. My schedule is flexible, making it easy to accommodate walks, feedings, medication, and your pet’s normal routine. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, overnight stay, or extended care, I’m happy to work around what keeps your pet happiest and most comfortable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor play, and I keep a calm, clean, pet-friendly home. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and exotic pets including snakes and a Sphynx cat, so I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own and always keep owners updated.
“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.
“Lucia was excellent! She was responsive, friendly, and punctual. I hired her to take my 5 month old GSP for a walk with specific needs for timing and location, and she could not have been a better walker to ask. She was easy to communicate with and very prepared. Thank you Lucia!”
“Kyle did an amazing Job walking our large dog once a day while I was out of town. He truly came through when we needed him, to get our dog the long walk he needed once a day. He provided numerous pictures everyday while they were out on walks to provide my family with the assurances we all desire when we're not around. We will certainly think of him first in the future!”
About: My first pet was a pigeon that I basically raised since they was a little featherless peep. I also thought them to fly! I was 12 years old. Since then, I have worked as a professional pet sitter in Long Beach, CA with a small company (shout out Happy Tails to You) and for Wag! (another app). I have experience working with dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I try to adjust to each pet's personalities. I also adjust to each pet parent's preference and do not mind reading and following your step-by-step instruction for taking care of your pet. I actually prefer a manual as there no one who knows your pet more than you! When I am not dog sitting, I am working with adults and kids with developmental disabilities as a behavior consultant. AND when I am not working, I am hanging out my two cats and dog! I am available early mornings (before 9am), afternoons (after 2pm), evenings, and weekends. I work a part-time job that is flexible with my schedule (I work on-site and remotely). When I am in your home, whatever instructions you provide, I will follow. The more details the better, as no one knows your pets more than you. I also try to work with your pet's personality and needs. I don't mind looking after pets with special needs or need extra care.
“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!!”
About: I have cared for many kinds of animals since a young age and I feel confident I can provide loving care for all your furry family members. 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. I am currently unable to have a pet of my own so I would treat your pet with all the love and affection I can give! I promise to keep them safe, and do everything in my power to make sure they have a good time.

“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.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and naturally became the go-to sitter for friends and family. I’m calm, reliable, and truly love caring for pets. I work from home, so pets get tons of attention throughout the day. Walk breaks, playtime, and cuddles fit naturally into my routine, and I’m around for anything they need. I keep things calm, clean, and comforting. In my home, pets get a cozy space, plenty of walks, and lots of attention. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely - feeding, walks, meds, and playtime exactly how their dog likes it. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always know how your pup is doing.
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.

“Candy is loving, warm and most of all very professional on how she treats your family member. I especially liked the fact that she has a meet and greet before the stay and gave me great hints on what to bring from home to make it easier for my doggie kid. You can really enjoy your vacation when your kid is at Candy's home. ”
“Our dog had another wonderful stay at his favorite home away from home. When we dropped him off, he pulled my boyfriend all the way to the front door with excitement! That made us so happy, and shows just how much he loves visiting Sandi and her husband!”
“Champ had a great time playing in Silvana’s yard with Brian and friends. She sent pics every day of my trip which made me feel at ease for leaving Champ behind for vacation. Will definitely book again!”
“Once again this as a perfect fit for my dog, Blake. The whole family treats my dog so well that he doesn't want to come home. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.”
“Collin took wonderful care of Winston when we were out of town for 4 days! He was so communicative, sent updates and photos during the stay and clearly made Winston feel at home. Winston came home a very happy and tired boy from his stay. We would highly recommend Collin and can’t wait to work with him again!”
“Stacey was very helpful and welcoming to Tessa and made sure to communicate clearly, provide a safe and calm environment, and maintain her routine. Tessa will be back!”
“She took great care of Neil and kept us updated throughout the day on how he was doing. This was his first boarding experience, and we absolutely loved it. If I need boarding services again or am driving to LA, I will definitely choose her again and again. Thank you, Nicole! 😊”
“Tyler was a fantastic sitter for my dog Rus! He was extremely caring, and Rus warmed up to him fast. He was easy to communicate with the entire time and sent lots of updates. I would highly recommend Tyler!”
“definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone to watch your loved one 🩷 she did an amazing job at making sure my dog was safe comfortable and taken care of! also sent updates daily!!! will be coming back :)”
“Christopher was great with Teddy. They got acquainted quickly. Teddy got plenty of exercise and I appreciated how Christopher spent lots of 1 on 1 time with him, even sharing photos and along with text updates. I would certainly recommend booking with him.”
“She was very responsive and flexible around my pick up and drop off times. Provided photos and videos of their walks every day and Chase looked happy in each one! Chase is a 100 pound German Shepherd and she handled him very well. Very thankful I was able to find her relatively last minute for my stay and have everything work out!”
“Victoria was amazing! She was able to watch my dog on very short notice for a family emergency and was very communicative throughout the whole process. My dog was clearly well cared for and happy during her stay.”
“Adrianna takes great care of my little dog, and sends lots of updates, cute pictures and videos every day. I highly recommend Adrianna for dog sitting.”
“This was the third time leaving Frankie at Ori’s, this time for a whole week boarding whilst we were out of town. We were at ease knowing Frankie was somewhere he is now comfortable, and Ori kept us updated the whole week with photos. He’s always been intimidated by larger dogs, but as the week progressed he made lots of new friends, so it was great for his socialisation also. Will definitely bring him back for future boarding/day care!”
“Mariia was amazing to work with and treated our pup with love and care. We had peace of mind while on vacation with Mariia sending us pictures and videos of our pup. She was also very engaged when it came to administering medication and keeping us informed of our pup. Would totally come back for the next time and wholeheartedly recommend her. Thanks Mariia”
“This was my first time rovering Kiba and Nicol was super accommodating! She sent lots of photo and video updates which really put my mind at ease. Kiba looked so happy and well cared for 😊 I highly recommend her!”
“my shy only child got a chance to spend some time around other dogs and cats while i was away. Barbara said they brought her around everywhere they went and tried buying her wet food and treats since she wasn't eating her kibble (but she just doesn't really eat in unfamiliar settings). pretty responsive!”
