“Bambi had a great stay with Andrew’s family! We are very happy with the experience and our dog is a lot less stressed than when he typically goes to the daycare/boarding. Andrew also sends many updates throughout the stay which is great to know. Highly recommend!”
“We are so grateful that we found Lucero. She gave wonderful care to our dog. It was clear from the updates and videos that he was loved, comfortable and well cared while we were away. We could tell that our dog was happy and felt at home with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving and caring dog sitter.”
“Kimberley is the best!! She kept my kitty in a smaller space so that she can acclimate better to the new location and would slowly expose my kitty to other pets if there’s any. Kimberley is very responsible and communicative. Will definitely book with her again!!”
“Chevelle & Devin were lovely! They asked a lot of questions to make sure our pup was well taken care of and stayed consistent with his life/training at home. They were highly responsive and made sure our dog got lots of exercise and love. Thank you both!!”
“This is my first time using Rover and Brittany was wonderful!! She communicated with me, sent pictures & videos during the entire time of taking care of my fur baby Jax. I highly recommend Brittany and will book with her again!”
“My 18-lb chihuahua mix had a great time with Andrea & Tim for a two-day stay, and came back healthy & happy. They were great about sending little updates and pictures throughout the day, which I very much appreciated. I will definitely use them again when I travel.”
“Carmen was wonderful with my little princess. She took great care of her and I feel like she listened to me and was very good at communication with me while she was taking care of Uma. Thank you Carmen”
“Thank you Rosario and Ryan for another wonderful stay🥰 It was Bisco’s first overnight stay with them, and she sometimes doesn’t eat because she can get a little nervous/anxious at a stranger’s house, but she ate her meal with them just fine. Thank you for providing a clean, warm, comfortable, and safe space for Bisco🙏🏻 Will book again and highly recommend for other fur parents!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”
About: I am the kind of person who'll always find a pet to pet or coo over no matter where I am; I always volunteer to watch my friends' animal friends when they can't because they're so freakin' cute. Throughout my life I or my family have had some pets, from hamsters to cats to dogs (and big ones!), so I know how to treat animals well and how to care for them. I love taking dogs to the park and run with them, play, and give them treats, but I'm careful not to spoil them too much no matter how much I want to. I know when they need to get their energy out and when to chill, when to give them personal attention and if they need a firm (but appropriate!) discipline. It will be a mutual love at first sight ! :D I freelance and have a flexible schedule. I don't always know which days but I usually will be able to tell at min 1-2 days in advance. I'm also generally available weekends. I cater to each dog. I have the friendliest dog of my own to hang with yours so I'm well versed in dog care. We love walks and hikes and hangs, either at home or backyard or beach! If a crate is required that's not a problem. I like to casually supervise them while letting them play and run around if close supervision isn't necessary.
“Highly recommend Alicia and James to take care of your pup while you're away. They're extremely responsive and provided a calm, welcoming environment for our dog. They sent a ton of photos which I really appreciated, and treated Luna like their own. So grateful for their help and definitely would come back again!”
“Laura did an amazing job watching our puppy and we will definitely use her again for future needs! This was the first time leaving our puppy for a long weekend and were nervous to do so, but Laura was very reassuring and happy to meet, discuss, and align on needs and routine. She was very communicative and gave updates throughout the weekend. We felt really safe and happy to know that Bear was being taken care of by an amazing sitter!”
“This is our second time with Ellie. She is wonderful, and very communicative! My dog clearly loved her, and got so excited to go back a second time. Highly recommend:)”
“Julia & Matt are amazing sitters! I felt very comfortable leaving my Pomeranian, Prim, with them. Julia sent me many updates and photos of Prim while I was away which gave me much peace of mind. Would definitely book again and highly recommend their services! 10/10! ⭐️🐾”
“Natalia is amazing! My dog Maki has stayed with her twice and she is my go to now. She sends so many updates and pays so much attention to details and instructions. I would highly recommend her to anyone”
“Jess and Max were great with my pup Pepper! I usually have my parents care for her when I travel so I was nervous, but Jess and Max put me at ease and sent updates the whole time. By the end of the week she was right at home at their place! And as a bonus Jess took some of the best photos of Pep ever!”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth as a dog sitter! My partner and I were anxious to leave our dogs, as it was the first time we were traveling post-Covid and our 2 dogs were just as (if not more) anxious. Elizabeth was more than attentive and accommodating. She sent us regular photo updates, constantly kept us updated on their meals and activity - I seriously cannot imagine a better experience for us or the dogs. Simply put, the best dog sitting experience we have ever had. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Audrey was a wonderful sitter for my little chihuahua mix. She reliably sent me updates about how he was adjusting to the new situation — he’s a really anxious and territorial dog — and seemed really adept at handling even a dog as difficult as mine. She was also available for a sudden appointment including a meet and greet within one day of contacting her.”

“Jane took great care of my cat while I was gone! She sent great updates and cute pics, and my cat, who is very standoffish to most people, really warmed up to her. I would definitely rebook with Jane and highly recommend!”
“Yuliia is a fantastic cat sitter! My kitties adore her and are so well behaved after spending time with her. She also goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable and is a great communicator with me. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Molly was amazing at taking care of our cats. We last minute booked a trip and needed someone to help us with the cats. Molly was easy to communicate with, and we felt very comfortable. Can't wait to use her again.”
“Madeline took excellent care of Nori! She was always on time, provided above and beyond communication, and took the time to play with Nori each visit. I will absolutely be having her back to watch our cat again!”
“Anya was great looking after my fish while I was out of town for 3 weeks! She helped check my automatic feeder and performed weekly water changes. I appreciated how Anya sent pictures and written updates on how they were doing for my peace of mind. She also gave great tips on how to better care for my orchid and watered my house plants. Her pet and educational background is super cool also!”
“Laura is amazing! She stepped in super last minute to take care of my boy when my friend flaked on me WHILE I was out of town. Laura is kind, trustworthy, and very patient. My dog is a bit on the shyer side and she seemed to know exactly what to do on how to gain his trust based on intuition and experience. I can’t recommend her enough and will be hiring her in the future. Thank you again, Laura! 🩷✨”
“Thank you Courtney for taking such good care of Luna :) Luna is a shy kitty and she warmed up to Courtney so well. She was very dependable and communicative - will definitely book her again!”
“Molly was a great, reliable, and communicative cat sitter for Poppy! I felt that my home and Poppy were in great hands. She was super accommodating even when Poppy ended up needing medicine administered with very little notice. Highly recommend!”
“Daniel and Bethany took wonderful care of our bunny. They were attentive and took extra care to make sure that she had a clean crate before we arrived home. Thank you so much for the great care!”
“Kimberley is the best!! She kept my kitty in a smaller space so that she can acclimate better to the new location and would slowly expose my kitty to other pets if there’s any. Kimberley is very responsible and communicative. Will definitely book with her again!!”
“Meng did a great job checking on our cat and taking care of him. Our cat is a finicky fellow. He doesn't warm up quickly. Meng patiently waited for him to come out, and he slowly (sort of) warmed up to her. She provided ample pictures and feedback.”
“Talia was so amazing with my dog. During her drop-in visit, she was super communicative and sent plenty of updates and photos which I really appreciated. It was so nice to see how happy and comfortable my dog was with her. My dog clearly adored her and was happy and relaxed when I got home. I’d trust Talia to watch my dog anytime and I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Alicia gave us great peace of mind while we were traveling. Our cat Cosmo was very calm when we got home, which is proof that he was well taken care of while we were away. We highly recommend Alicia to anyone!”
“Christine was amazing! My partner and I were away for almost 10 days on a cross-country trip, and she took such great care of Brujo. From the initial meet and greet, we could tell Brujo approved of her, and he took to her instantly. She’s cared for both dogs and cats, and you can just tell she really loves animals. Throughout our trip, Christine was so attentive and communicative. She posted frequent updates, was proactive about reaching out, and handled everything beautifully – playtime, feeding, litter, water, all of it. When we needed to adjust some instructions around his diet while monitoring things remotely, she adapted and rolled with it no problem. It was so easy to work with her, and it was fun too. When we came back home, it was clear Brujo had been well looked after. I can’t overstate how much peace of mind that gave us. I highly recommend Christine and would definitely work with her again! Thanks again, Christine!”
“Jeniffer was such a wonderful sitter for my cat, Luna! She was timely, communicative and loving when I was away, allowing me to feel a little less guilty about being gone for a week. She cleaned the litter box, checked the food and water, brought in mail and sent a thorough report every day of Luna’s mood and what she did that day (plus plenty of photos). She genuinely loves cats so this was a plus for me; Luna warmed up to her right away and now has a new friend. I would happily recommend Jeniffer to anyone looking for a cat sitter in West LA!”
“Anastasiia did an amazing job taking care of my kitty! She left incredibly comprehensive recaps of their visit and my little girl was so happy when I got back home. I’ll definitely be rebooking with her.”
“Esther watched our two kitties with super short notice. She stopped by to meet them and was very thorough for each check-in. Our two cats are rescues, so they have a lot of anxiety. They were very comfortable with her. We’d definitely hire her again.”

“My little Gía always has a great time with Jane! At least 1 walk/day, and Jane is SO flexible with my varying pick-up/drop-off times. What a gift to have her so close-by as well. Thanks again, Jane!”
“Abby loved it here! Tim kept me well informed through the entire day with multiple pictures and videos of my dog. I felt she was safe here and in good hands. Will definitely bring her back!”
“Da Sol helped us out w our pup while our normal sitter is out of town and we’re so thankful for her! she provided so many cute updates and mac came home happy. We will definitely be asking for her help again. thanks again!”
“audrey was amazing! i needed a last minute booking and it was a great first experience. she was super communicative and sent lots of photos. her dog got along great with my dog and i would totally use her again!”
“Today was Emily’s first day with our very energetic and little puppy Maximo who is only 3 months old. She was hands down so incredible. She was with him all day and did so many activities with him and sent us endless videos and pix. I immediately felt beyond comfortable leaving our Maximo with her and look forward to upcoming visits. She is beyond a 5 star rating. Thx a million. She’s the best”
“Pepper had a great time with Chelsi and her family! He especially loved playing with Leo, who is such a sweet boy. Chelsi is also very communicative, we loved all the photos and videos she sent during Pepper’s stay.”
“Brian is a dog whisperer. He is calm, patient, and treats my sweet pup and any pets he’s looking after as his own. Truly, his calm demeanor puts pets at ease immediately. He regularly volunteers at the dog shelter and has extensive experience with all types of dogs. Brian is eager to meet your best friend where they’re at (in my case, a 15 week old puppy that sometimes slept and sometimes had endless zoomie energy and needed constant attention!). Brian is wonderful with practicing training commands and shares updates and photos throughout the day. He is also super communicative and was extremely flexible as my work schedule required alternate pick up and drop off times. I’ll absolutely rely on Brian when I need full day or overnight support. Don’t look any further for support, Brian is the absolute best!!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we could not be happier with our experience with Katherine. She was able to accommodate us with a last minute request for daycare for our 11 week old puppy Ozzie and was very attentive to his needs for frequent potty breaks and puppy play. She was also very easy to communicate with and we would gladly use her again!”
“Valerie is a thoughtful and considerate dog sitter. Its obvious that she cares about her visiting pets as much as her own. She sends pics and updates in how Kobe was doing and behaving. Thank you Valerie!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over four years and love every minute of it! Whether it’s training playful puppies, looking after senior dogs, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I always make sure they feel happy and comfortable. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule! I have availability on both weekdays and weekends, so I can give your pets the attention and care they need whenever you need me. In my cozy apartment, I create a safe and pet-friendly space alongside my small Yorkie. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and in a clean environment—whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home!
About: We are Justin and Kristy, with our young daughter and high energy 60 pound male dog, we all share this lovely pet friendly home in Culver City. We are full time working professionals and currently both of us are mainly working from home. We aim to provide a safe environment for your pup and we want to ensure as best we can that our daughter is paired with child tolerant canines. Our daughter has the tendency to hug, be excited and get close to dogs, especially ones sharing our home. Please be aware that if you have any doubt about your dog’s behavior around children that we may not be the best option for everyone’s safety. Our house is a back house with a fenced area made up of artificial turf, concrete, and a small pool. It’s been a great spot for our family and we have room to create a fun and safe environment for your canine. We take care for our own dog and family needs daily. Morning walks and runs are routine. Our dog has special needs with food and medication every 12 hours so we are accustom to any nutrition and medication needs. In our home we have several gates to keep the pets on the property and we keep a keen eye on their needs and level of energy.
About: Hello! I'm a dedicated dog lover who welcomes dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. I provide a safe, fun, and caring environment where your pup will be treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized Doberman who loves meeting new dogs and is especially great at helping larger, high-energy dogs burn off some extra energy through supervised play and companionship. One of the highlights of my boarding service is regular trips to our property in Yucca Valley, where dogs can enjoy exploring and playing on a securely fenced half-acre of land. It's a great opportunity for them to stretch their legs, socialize, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time in a safe environment. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, or make new friends, I tailor their experience to ensure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to provide the same love, attention, and care that I would want for my own dog. As a realtor and business owner, I have the flexibility to create my own schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. Working independently means your pup won't be left alone for long periods and will receive the supervision, companionship, exercise, and affection they deserve throughout their stay. Your dog will enjoy the best of both worlds—a spacious, fenced half-acre property for exercise and play, along with a comfortable 1,700-square-foot home for indoor relaxation and overnight stays. I strive to provide a safe, fun, and home-like environment where every dog feels comfortable and cared for.
“Perry was great with Remi! She seemed really comfortable with him and enjoyed having company all day, especially with his dog Mookie around. Remi is always happy to be dropped off and comes home relaxed!”
“Best dog sitters on the planet! Literally my main and go to dog sitters. They always treat my Bean (French bull dog) as their own. I am always updated with cute/fun pictures of my little guy! I ALWAYS feel a huge sense of ease when I leave my pup with them; when I have to go to work or am out of town for 5-7 days. Very communicative, responsive, flexible, and understanding. You can tell they have compassions for animals. Bean is always excited when I drop him off, he literally runs to their door haha! Highly reliable individuals, definitely recommend.”

About: Hi! I moved to Culver City about a year ago and have really enjoyed going on walks around the neighborhood. I have taken care of dogs for most of my life whether I am playing with my own puppy or pet sitting for friends and neighbors. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I am currently working full-time, however I work from home so I am flexible and can likely accommodate last minute schedules. Generally, I am available before 8:30am and after 5:30pm. I have a very high energy golden doodle at home. This means that walks are full of adventure and require high attention since he wants to say hello to every other dog and person in the neighborhood. Safety for your pets is incredibly important to me and I will treat your pets as I would my own!
About: I have extensive experience with both ends of the spectrum in dog care. I’ve cared for my senior dog who was blind, deaf, and battling cancer, which taught me incredible patience and compassion. I’ve also raised a puppy from just 8 weeks old, successfully potty and crate training her. I’m highly adaptable, able to provide slow, gentle care for older or special-needs pets, or be as active as necessary for energetic pups. Additionally, I’m exceptionally neat and organized, ensuring that your home remains spotless while I care for your pet. Pet care naturally fits into my routine as an active individual who loves to be outside. I average about 8 miles of walking each day, making daily walks with your pet an integral part of my schedule. As an early riser and remote worker, I can accommodate early morning routines, ensuring your pet gets the attention they need from the start of the day. When caring for pets in my home, you can expect a clean, organized, and safe environment. Living alone allows me to focus entirely on your pet, making them the center of my attention. I maintain a tidy space, which is perfect for pets who thrive in a calm and orderly setting. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I bring the same level of care and respect to your space as I do to mine. I am highly adaptable to the specific needs of your pet, whether they require a calm and patient approach or a more active and engaging routine.
About: I've always taken care of dogs my entire life. From the yellow lab I had until high school to my neighbor's three maltese, I've been trusted with feeding, walking, and bathing them. With the range of sizes I've watched, I'm more than happy to just chill with them or take them on a hike in the mountains (if theyre feeling truly adventurous)! I'm also especially experienced with dogs with separation anxiety (ask me about my cattle dog haha)! I'm currently looking for work, so my schedule is extremely open! Usually mornings or evenings work best for my natural schedule, but I'm very flexible. I've never caged any of the animals I've cared for, save for the few families who need that for their pets. I also usually look around the area in advance to look for any parks or landmarks the dogs may be interested in (and I'm always open to suggestions from the owner)! I want to make sure the pets feel safe, friendly, and comfortable to be their true selves!
About: I'm a devoted dog mom who treats every pet like family. One thing that sets me apart is that I can offer either solo walks or walks with my friendly Cockapoo, depending on what your dog enjoys most. Whether your pup loves making canine friends or prefers all the attention to themselves, I'll tailor each visit to their needs. I'm dependable, communicative, and love keeping pet parents updated with plenty of photos and notes after each visit. I work from home full-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to incorporate pet care throughout my day. I enjoy getting outside for walks and breaks, so dog walking and drop-in visits are a natural fit for my routine. Because I'm not commuting, I can often accommodate midday walks and check-ins, and I'm available throughout the week to provide reliable, consistent care for your pets. When caring for pets in your home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide walks, potty breaks, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of attention while following all care instructions carefully. For dogs who enjoy extra exercise, walks can include time at the gated dog run in my apartment community, where they can safely run and play off leash (with owner approval). I'll also send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away. 🐾
About: I was so obsessed with dogs as a kid I would pretend to be one, as my sisters love to remind me. Eventually my family adopted a greyhound when I was 7 and a chihuahua mix when I was 14 so I have experience with both big and small dogs. I also cared for my own senior dog with lots of medical ailments as an adult so I have a lot experience there too. I miss him dearly and would love to give back to this wonderful Rover community and help others with their dogs now that I am primarily focusing on taking care of my (human) child! I work remotely so I am fairly flexible on the weekdays during working hours. I also don’t travel much so weekends are usually no problem too. But it’s best to consider me an occasional dog walker vs a daily one. I am incredibly organized and will make sure everything is left as it was when I arrived. I care for pets as if they are my own and will follow all house rules.
“Sara is great! She met with Lorelai ahead of time to familiarize and was very patient with letting Lorelai warm up to her without pushing her boundaries. I will definitely have Sara walk Lorelai again!”
“This was my first time working with Aditi. I have used other dog walkers from Rover before.She was very pleasant to deal with. She seemed to have a very genuine love for our dog and was willing to accept the last minute request when 3 others turned it down. I will put her as my first choice when looking for dog walkers from now on.”

“Molly is an amazing dog sitter! She showed up prior to walking the dogs to get acquainted and asked all the right questions that made us feel very safe to leave our furry babies with her. She definitely went above and beyond walking our dogs and making sure they got lots of love and cuddles even after she was done walking them. She kept us updated and posted photos consistently so we were always aware of what’s happening. I would definitely recommend Molly as a pet sitter and would definitely contact her again in the future.”
“Nick is great! Our puppy is always happy to see him and her mood is so much better at the end of the day because she was able to get a good walk in with Nick while my husband and I are at work. We will continue to book with Nick & Heidi!”
“Meng is just wonderful with my boy. He goes out with her readily and Meng documents all his "business" as well as showing me the secured door, etc. I highly recommend her and use her as often as needed! BIG THUMBS UP 👍”
About: I have over 10 years of dogsitting experience ranging from puppies to 20 year old senior dogs - and dogs of all sizes and breeds. I'm a dog mom to a 3-legged pup who is my world. I've never met a dog that I don't love - and it's (almost) always mutual; I've been called the dog-whisperer by many. I have time on the weekends, and sometimes during the week as my job is hybrid and offers flexibility. I also have specific times of the year that I have off from work (i.e. Christmas time) and am very available to help with pup needs! As someone who has a very friendly dog that can be slightly anxious at first, I approach all dogs I meet for the first time with caution, usually getting closer to their level before any contact. I am patient with the pups, knowing that some dogs take a little more time to get used to a new person. I always ask for all rules that an owner has (dogs allowed on furniture? specific treats they can get and how often) to ensure I don't throw off a dog's routine.
“Awesome experience! Matty was so good with our pup. He was also prompt and responsive throughout, which made our lives much easier. We’re very grateful!”
About: I’ve loved animals my entire life and connecting with animals of all kinds is my greatest joy. Rescued is my favourite breed, and I specialize in watching senior pets and special needs pets. I have experience with seniors who require medications and particular care, as well as special needs, including but not limited blind, deaf, and three-legged pets. I have a flexible work schedule and when I’m not at work, I’m a huge homebody and live alone, so your pet will get tons of one-on-one attention and love. I don’t have any dogs or cats of my own, and I only watch one dog at a time, so if your pet needs to be the sole pet, then we are a perfect fit. I do have one sweet senior guinea pig; she can be secured in another room if you’re worried about your pet bothering her. I absolutely love watching small pets as well and have tons of experience with guinea pigs. Please note that I currently work hybrid and go into work 2-3x a week. However I only have to be there from 10-3, so your pet would only be alone for a max of five hours. Luckily my work is super flexible, so if I need to adjust my hours or office days for your pet, please let me know and I can adjust my schedule. My office is also super dog friendly, if you think they’d like to come with me! My place is very quiet; I live alone and never have people over, and I’m home most of the time, so I’m great for anxious or shy pets. I also only board one dog at a time, so your pet will get 100% of my attention, which is also great for shy and nervous dogs who don’t do well with other dogs. (If you have two dogs I’m happy to watch them together, I just don’t watch dogs from different families at once.) I don’t have a backyard, but I do have a spacious balcony for your dog to sunbathe. I’m on the top floor and my building has an elevator, which is ideal for senior and special needs pups. Your pet is welcome anywhere in my apartment, from the couch to my bed, my home is their home.
About: Offering: Dog walks around Palms Middle School area for small-medium sized dogs for <1.5 miles. I have 2 family dogs and ever since I've moved away, I've been missing walking and taking care of dogs! If you and (preferably small-mid sized) fur baby are looking for a friendly neighborhood auntie, hit me up! I WFH, so hours are flexible. This is purely a small side hustle to get my dog fix, so I'm not doing it as a financial opportunity and you can be flexible based on your need! I get off of work at 2PM, so afternoons work best for me. I know it's getting hot now, so I can be flexible for evening times, or sometimes earlier (12PM). I know the neighborhood very well and there are many dog walk friendly streets. I prefer to stay away from big roads and other dogs.
About: Hello! My name is Ayala. Ever since I was a child I loved animals and my appreciation for them has grown as I got older. My experience in pet care is from caring for friends pets over the years. I really enjoy spending time with furry friends, playing with them, caring for their individual needs, and taking them out for walks around the neighborhood. When I have free time in between school and work I like exercising and taking walks. Having a furry friend by my side would make me feel so happy! Looking forward to hearing from you. Feel free to contact me anytime. I currently work part time so I have a pretty flexible schedule to stop by and take care of your pet. I'm available on most holidays too. I enjoy watching them, feeding them, playing with them, and petting them. I prefer working with animals that are calmer in temperance. I have a gentle heart.

I am a responsible, kind, and active sitter that respects your pets space and sticks to their routine as close as possible while you are away. My approach is grounded in deep kindness and lots of care. I am gentle with pets and attuned to their needs. Overall, I am dependable and easy to communicate. Because of my flexible work I can be around most of the day if that's what your pet needs or drop by as needed. Looking forward to meeting your furry loves and caring for them while you are away.

About: I’ve always grown up with pets, both cats and dogs in my home for 10+ years. I also grew up walking my grandparents dog when they couldn’t and my neighbors dogs as well. I am a designated cat aunt & always watch my sister’s cats when she’s on business trips so I am very well versed with both pets! I’m very approachable, gentle, and love all animals! I am a UC Berkeley graduate and am trying to save money as I start my masters program in the fall at UCLA. Let’s connect! I only have summer classes for 10am-12pm M-F so I have lots of time to hang with your pets! Weekends are usually free as well! I am very attentive to all pets I've cared for, including my own pup and cats! I believe communication, gentle care, love and trustworthiness are all key components to caring for pets.

“We are so grateful that we found Lucero. She gave wonderful care to our dog. It was clear from the updates and videos that he was loved, comfortable and well cared while we were away. We could tell that our dog was happy and felt at home with her. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving and caring dog sitter.”
“Chevelle & Devin were lovely! They asked a lot of questions to make sure our pup was well taken care of and stayed consistent with his life/training at home. They were highly responsive and made sure our dog got lots of exercise and love. Thank you both!!”
“This is my first time using Rover and Brittany was wonderful!! She communicated with me, sent pictures & videos during the entire time of taking care of my fur baby Jax. I highly recommend Brittany and will book with her again!”
“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”
About: I am the kind of person who'll always find a pet to pet or coo over no matter where I am; I always volunteer to watch my friends' animal friends when they can't because they're so freakin' cute. Throughout my life I or my family have had some pets, from hamsters to cats to dogs (and big ones!), so I know how to treat animals well and how to care for them. I love taking dogs to the park and run with them, play, and give them treats, but I'm careful not to spoil them too much no matter how much I want to. I know when they need to get their energy out and when to chill, when to give them personal attention and if they need a firm (but appropriate!) discipline. It will be a mutual love at first sight ! :D I freelance and have a flexible schedule. I don't always know which days but I usually will be able to tell at min 1-2 days in advance. I'm also generally available weekends. I cater to each dog. I have the friendliest dog of my own to hang with yours so I'm well versed in dog care. We love walks and hikes and hangs, either at home or backyard or beach! If a crate is required that's not a problem. I like to casually supervise them while letting them play and run around if close supervision isn't necessary.
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Elizabeth as a dog sitter! My partner and I were anxious to leave our dogs, as it was the first time we were traveling post-Covid and our 2 dogs were just as (if not more) anxious. Elizabeth was more than attentive and accommodating. She sent us regular photo updates, constantly kept us updated on their meals and activity - I seriously cannot imagine a better experience for us or the dogs. Simply put, the best dog sitting experience we have ever had. Thank you Elizabeth!”
“Ryan treated my pup so well! I gave detailed instructions on how to help care for his eyes (he can’t see well and gets eye build-up) and he came back exactly how I left him, perfectly clean. My pup sometimes gets anxiety diarrhea at a new sitter, but he didn’t have that at all when I got him back! Daily updates were great. I will definitely be booking again.”
“Eva is the absolute best! Rolo always has the best time & she does an incredible job of keeping us updated with photos of our little guy. Highly recommended. Thanks Eva!”
“This is my first time using Rover, and our first experience having our dog being taken care of by another. It was crucial for us to find a dog caretaker for him, and Alicia's profile page stood out to me the most. She and her kids took care of Rocky as if he was their own and that means alot to us. Alicia kept us updated on Rockys daily activities and snuggles. I am so happy and blessed to have found her on Rover. If there is any other future needs, we definitely have Rocky stay with her.”
“Let me just say this: when we were picking Flash up after a long trip, he was pacing between us and Cristina, as if he didn't want to leave. Detailed regular updates from her during our trip really gave us a peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our vacation.”
“Jamie was absolutely great with my dog while I was out of town. Regular updates with both photos and videos! Very communicative which was greatly appreciated for my first time leaving my dog. I would definitely recommend Jamie to anyone who is looking for dog boarding!”
“Samuel was great. Sasha seemed to have truly enjoyed her stay with him. She warmed up to him right away and he was very thoughtful, caring, polite and considerate and took great care of her. Communication was great too. He provided updates every day and really allowed us to have a great time on our trip not worrying about our fur baby. We will be happy to leave Sasha with him in the future. Thank you very much again! ☺️”
“Colin was incredible with Kaia once again. I have the utmost confidence that Kaia is going to be well taken care of and have fun/be loved when she's with Colin. Couldn't recommend more.”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who has had dogs for as long as I can remember. Growing up with dogs taught me not only how to care for them, but also how much joy, companionship, and unconditional love they bring into our lives. I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I'm happy to provide the care and attention they need to feel comfortable and loved while you're away. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and needs so they can feel safe and at home. My goal is to treat every dog as if they were my own and give pet parents peace of mind knowing their furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. I am an elementary school teacher who is currently on summer break so my daily schedule has cleared up a lot. I have a flexible schedule! I live in a secure apartment building with easy access to an outside grassy area. I have plenty of space to fit a crate if needed.
“Martin has been the best Rover Sitter that I’ve used, by far. We had a great meet and greet with my dog in the days leading up to it, where we talked about his history and his impressive life-long experience with dogs. That really gave me good peace of mind leaving my best friend with him for 8 nights. Over the course of his stay, Martin was very responsive and sent me pictures and videos every day. He also continued learning and understanding my dog’s quirks, habits, and what would be the best course of action in each scenario — Feeding, walking, giving physical attention, and when to leave him be and give him his space. I will absolutely book with Martin again on my next trip and would recommend him highly to anybody in the LA area that needs boarding services. I also appreciated the 1-on-1 attention as he only takes on one dog at a time. Thanks so much to Martin and Rover for the support!!”
“Tyler was absolutely amazing during his week with my 9 yr old, but still high energy, Riley. He's very clearly a dog lover to his core and my little girl warmed to him immediately. He was very responsive, kept me updated w photos and stories all week, and each showed my baby happy as could be. We won't hesitate to call on Tyler next time I'm out of town.”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Steph for our first time using Rover!! She was incredibly responsive and made us feel completely at ease while we were away for a week. Every day she sent thoughtful updates and sweet photos of our pup which we looked forward to and really appreciated. It was so clear how much she cared and how well she treated our dog :) she looked so happy and comfortable in every picture. We could not have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely book with her again in the future!! Highly recommend!!!!!”
“Alyssa was a great sitter for my pup. Quick to respond, sent lots of pics and was very accommodating. Her pup Leo is adorable and got along great with mine. Her yard is a great bonus. Highly recommend!”
“Travis was awesome! He treated Penny like his own. He was responsive to our questions and a natural when caring for her. I felt very comfortable leaving her with him. She takes medications and has a mix of foods and he had no problem taking care of any requests made. He took pictures and made me feel secure while she was with him.❤️”
