“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!!”
“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!”
“Lucero took wonderful care of my dog and gave her so much love and attention while I was away. They played together, went on multiple park outings, and Lucero even brushed her and spoiled her with treats. It was clear my pup felt happy, safe, and cared for the entire time. Lucero is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy — your dog will absolutely be in the best hands with her!”
“Travis did an outstanding job looking after our pup during a 7 day trip. He took significant time to do a meet and greet prior to her stay and answered all of our questions and took time to thoughtfully understand her routine and behaviors. While we were away, Travis consistently gave daily updates with notes on her activities, behavior and a few photos. We truly felt assured our dog was in good hands and she was having a great time, allowing us to enjoy our time away. We are already planning our pup's next stay with Travis, he's the perfect host.”
“Laura is fantastic! She’s been my regular dog walker and recently boarded my dog as well. She’s a great communicator, dependable, and clearly cares deeply for the animals she looks after. I always feel confident knowing my pup is in good hands with her.”
“Brittany was great, she was so flexible with our drop off and pick up times and kept us updated through the day via text. Lola had a great time playing with her dogs as well. Highly recommend!”
“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.”
“Tim and Andrea were the BEST! I felt completely at ease leaving my little guy with them for the weekend and I’m sure he had a blast as well! They provided constant updates and photos which I greatly appreciated and I can’t wait to use them again in the future ? 100/10 recommend!!”
“Brittany is the best! My pup Nala is a sweetheart but deals with a lot of reactivity issues and it’s hard to find someone with enough experience, patience, trust, and love to watch her while I’m out of town. Brittany was more than willing and able to work with her and give her a chance. Brittany was AMAZING with her. I didn’t worry once about Nala while I was out of the country. She walked her multiple times per day, played with her, made sure she was always safe, and gave her so much love. She already has crates for large dogs at her home, which made everything so much easier. She gave me lots of updates, pictures, and videos every single day. She followed all of the instructions I left and took her job very seriously. Nala loved her so much and I could tell she felt right at home. Thank you so much Brittany!”
“Salud was FANTASTIC with my senior dog. I know my dog really enjoyed having access to a yard and I received regular pictures which put my mind at ease. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Andrew is a dream dog sitter! He cared for our dog like his own, and he sent photos and reassuring updates every day while we were away. I look forward to leaving our dog with him the next time we travel.”
“Ryan took excellent care of my husky, Scarlet, for two weeks. She had a blast with him:). He frequently sent me photos and updates, which I greatly appreciated, and he even took the time to wash Scarlet's leash, which was so kind. Scarlet came back a very happy dog:). I highly recommend Ryan!!”
“Julia and Matthew are such kind and caring people, not to mention wonderful sitters. I felt like I could trust them with Haku as soon as I met them for the meet and greet! The regular updates and pictures were so appreciated, and Haku was very well taken of. I’d absolutely choose Julia and Matthew to watch Haku again next time we need to go on another trip!”
“I can't say enough great things about Ellie! She cared for a recent rescue when I had to go out of town for a few days. She made my girl feel right at home and sent regular pics and videos which made me feel confident about her care from start to finish. When she found a couple of fleas on my put during her stay, she was so calm and helpful working with me from afar to take care of it. When my flight was delayed coming home, she even agreed to care for my pup until I could get back to town. Will definitely rebook with Ellie again!”
“Chelsi has a lovely family, her children and her dog Leo are super super friendly to my dog. Chelsi also takes care of my dog into the very details. Sending photos/video updates many times throughout the day. Makes us worry less and she's super reliable”
“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”
“Jess and Max were amazing!! Communicative, responsive, provided tons of great pictures and a ton of peace of mind. It was Ellie’s first time staying with them and we will definitely be reaching out again! Ellie just fell in love with them and loved all the endless cuddles they provided.”
“Nadine did a wonderful job taking care of our girl, Poppy, while we were out of town. She sent us daily updates on how Poppy was doing and dealt with a couple of potty accidents with grace and kindness. We are truly grateful to have found Nadine and would love to work with her again for our doggy daycare or boarding needs.”

“Mutsumi took amazing care of Pabu and sent me a detailed card with lots of pictures and videos throughout my time away!! She was also incredibly kind and flexible with meeting for keys which I appreciated a lot. I would definitely rebook the next time I am traveling!”
“I was worried about leaving Cashew alone for the first time since I adopted her but Yuliia took great care of her. She spent time with her, playing and hanging out. She sent lots of cute pics.”
“Courtney was wonderful with my cat Georgia! All I needed was someone to keep her company and Courtney went above and beyond checking her food, giving her treats and lots of cuddles. My cat gets a little anxious when I’m gone too long and Courtney handled her so well and is such a great communicator. Georgia and I are so grateful and we’ll definitely call Courtney again when we need her 😊”
“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!”
“Victoria is excellent! From the beginning she was extremely professional, offering to meet the cats and receive all instructions before the dates I would be away. She sent updates and pictures every day and was even courteous enough to vacuum around the litter boxes before I came home. She gave me peace of mind while I was away and I knew my cats were in excellent care!”
“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.”
“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!”
“Tasha’s great! Very thoughtful, communicative and leaves great updates. She got to know Winston on his terms which for cats is everything ☺️ by the end of the week he was so comfy and cuddling with her! Winston stamp of approval 🙌”
“We absolutely loved having Alicia check in on Freddy while we were traveling! Her updates were funny, thoughtful, and really kept us up to date on how our sometimes anxious cat was doing. She sent really cute photos each visit, and we so appreciated her extra notes and chats with us on how he was doing. We’d love to book her again!”
“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!”
About: I’ve lived with cats forever and totally respect their independent spirits. From spirited play sessions to quiet companionship for the shy ones, I know how to follow their lead. Whether it's mealtime or just some quality head scratches, your cat's comfort is my priority.
“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!!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the care our cats received! Molly went above and beyond—playing with the cats daily and leaving detailed notes about their behavior and the condition of our home. She even took out the trash and swept up stray litter. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and a tidy home. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible and thoughtful cat sitter!”
“Meng stepped in to care for our car during an emergency on super short notice, and we couldn't be more grateful!! She was amazing with our boy, and very thorough in her care for him. She not only followed our instructions but went above and beyond, I will absolutely be rebooking with Meng whenever I travel from now on!”
“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!”

“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!”
“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”
“Such a great experience with Jane. Gía was well-taken care of, had a walk every day, and Jane was so incredibly flexible with my pickup times due to my ever-evolving work scenario and schedule. Definitely look forward to Jane taking care of Gía again!”
“Chevelle and Devin are so loving and kind, very accommodating to Diego. Amazing communication followed by daily pics of my fur baby. Thank you so much for all that you both do. I look forward to setting up more boarding for Diego. Thank you! 🥰”

“Chelsi is simply amazing!!! She’s so thoughtful and really loves dogs. I felt immediately comfortable leaving my pup with her. I can’t recommend her highly enough. She sent me updates all day long, and it was obvious that my dog was feeling at home too. She was a great match for our - relaxed, flexible, respectful of each dogs personalities. Just such a good vibe overall. Our experience with her was really way above what I had expected. We will definitely be booking with her again ♥️”
“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!!”
“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!”
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. 🐾
“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.”
“Nadine was great. She has a pleasant and easy vibe, and my dog immediately took to her. I felt confident leaving my boy with her. She also kept me posted to ensure me all was going well. I would definitely bring my dog to her again. Thanks!”
“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!”
“I’m so thankful we found Cristina! She’s been great at helping my recently adopted pup learn to socialize with other dogs, and has been patient with his puppy playfulness and quirks. I appreciated how she showed up in the rain to slowly (over 30 minutes) introduce our dogs to make sure they’d get along! My larger pit mix has only been over three times, but I can already tell he loves it by the amount of tail wagging that happens as soon as we get close!”
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!
“We had such a great experience! Aries looked after Lola for day care and we couldn’t have asked for better care. Lola went on long walks, trips to the park, and had plenty of playtime, but was also given space to rest and sleep when she needed it. She was fed well and clearly felt comfortable and happy the whole time. Lola was excited to see Aries every morning we would drop her off. It was obvious how attentive, caring, and thoughtful Aries is with dogs. I felt completely at ease knowing Lola was in such good hands and would absolutely book again. Highly recommend!”
“Sue-Ann T. is one of the best puppy sitters we’ve had! Great with communication. Very professional and organized. Gustavo felt right at home so quickly. Every dog mom’s dream 🥰😍 Brady is also the sweetest puppy host!”
“Brittany has the sweetest energy and my dog always comes back happy after a stay with her. She send pics and takes awesome care of my doggie. Highly recommend her!”

“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: Hi, I’m Mireya. I am a public health professional by day and a passionate dog walker on the side. As the proud owner of two adorable miniature doxens, I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m dependable, patient, and love spending time outdoors. Whether it’s a quick potty break, a long walk, or extra belly rubs, your pup will be in caring hands. I have a flexible work from home schedule. I enjoy talking walks during lunch , so why not walk your dog :). During the weekends , I am free any time. I always make sure my dogs have water right after their walks and always ensure I carry extra potty bags. If warm , we always walk on the shady area.
“We looooove Nick and Heidi!!! They walk Nala twice a week for us while we are both on the office. They are so thorough and wonderful. 10/10 so excited to have found them!”
“Emily walked our dog for a few months before she moved to Santa Monica and was such a pleasure to work with! Our dog can be quite difficult to manage but she was great and really patient with him. He misses her!”
“Travis is the perfect trusted dog walker for our pup. We have boarded with him as well and cannot say enough positive things about what a great job he does caring for our dog as well as being a great communicator and lovely to coordinate with. We would recommend Travis to any friend and continue to use him regularly ourselves.”
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 have had experience both walking and checking on my friends dogs. I’ve have been around and have had dogs since I was a child I currently work full time however I do have days where I have many hours of down. I am free early mornings and afternoons. I can be flexible. I will take the dogs on at least a 15 min walk and be sure to provide some play time in between. If there’s anything additional you would like you can share that with me.
About: I’ve been around and lived with animals since I was born. I’ve never spent a period of my life without a dog in my care. I also have extensive experience caring for cats as well. I take not just the love and care of animals seriously but also training. I believe that a pet deserves to feel secure, safe and structured in life and that’s why I’m not just there to provide pets and food but also structured walks, mental stimulation and more. I have a Shetland sheepdog, so I understand the value in being more than just a caregiver to an animal. I work from home so I have the flexibility to stop by and walk your pet or care for them throughout the day. I also am done with work at 2 pm every day so my afternoons and evenings are very open. I have my own dog so I can’t spend every moment with your pet or at your house but I am able to be there consistently. I know first-hand just how scary it can be to leave your pet (your baby!) with someone else because of my unyielding love for animals and my personal attachment to the importance of being reliable, communicative and kind to pets in my care, you will never have to worry that your baby is in safe hands. I care for pets but not only being reliable and caring when it comes to affection, feeding and more but I try to be very structured with my care depending on the pet. For many dogs, that looks like walks every few hours, offering brain games like puzzles and trick training and setting them up for a relaxed and calm environment when they return home.
About: I've grown up with dogs and cats my whole life. I put my all into making sure they are safe, fed, and most importantly, happy. I currently have a female cat of my own. I work from home Monday-Friday. My job is not very demanding so I'm usually hanging out, watching tv, and playing with my cat Freya. I feed her at 8am and 6pm with little snacks or kibble available throughout the day. She has a Litter Robot that she loves to use. She has access to the entire house, but our guest bedroom is the dedicated "cat room" if your cat is overwhelmed by newer spaces. I live in a 3 story apartment/townhome with laminate floors throughout. I keep my space very clean and tidy to ensure there is never anything dangerous or dirty out in the open. Cats that stay with me can have access to the entire home, or I can put a second litter box in the guest bedroom and allow them to call that their home away from home. Complete with toys and a cat tower and windows for endless entertainment. If pet sitting at your home, I am well versed in feeding and litter clean up, accidents, play time, and giving attention. I think seeing a happy cat is fulfilling, so I intend to make sure any visits end with a smile.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with pets of all kinds. I have lots of experience with dog sitting and walking. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring, reliable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I am completely available all days of the week at any time! I am committed to meeting any and all of you and your pet’s needs. I am completely comfortable staying in your home and also respecting your space! It is important to me that I gain the trust that I will respect you and your pet’s home!
About: My parents had a standard poodle named Jocko when I was born. Since then, I've always had either a dog or a cat or a pair of cats...or a pair of dogs...or a dog and a cat. I currently do not have a pet (we recently moved to LA from Massachusetts). Recently, I went out to Thousands Oaks to play with and walk this sweet pack of love… a golden retriever, a flat-coat retriever, 2 labs and a Pom. Super fun! I'm a singer-songwriter, so I largely make my own schedule and I have the ability to be very flexible, especially during the weekdays. I can be available for early morning walks for those early birds. I can't bring any kitties to my home due to others' allergies in my home, unfortunately. Doggie visitors to my home are part of the family. Outside of the home, it's safety first. Always on the leash. Poops are scooped. We meet new friends. Lots of pets. Back at home, clean water and food (as required). More pets.
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 to 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.
“Meng is super responsible and stays in communication with you assuaging all concerns. My boy has separation anxiety and fears leaving the house with certain people. He happily went with Meng. Thank you so much Meng!!!”
About: I've grown up with animals my whole life so reading their cues & moods comes naturally to me. I treat every pet as an individual & always meet them where they're at. Having recently said goodbye to my own lil one, spending time w animals right now brings me comfort & a lil extra company would be truly welcome. Whether your baby needs a quick potty break, a gentle/BRISK walk or just company while you're away, I’d love to be there for them. Book a meet n greet; I’m sure your pet will tell you if they like me or not . This is my work schedule: Monday & Wednesday: 10 AM to 3 PM Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: Working from home I am Available on weekends I stay alone in an apartment with a private back patio (perfect if your baby likes to sunbathe like me) & an enclosed dog run in the apt building for all dogs if your pup (or other pet) like to run around/play. I’m super close to vets & Carlson parks (Culver City) too. If your pet is nervous or doesn’t like change, I’m happy to stay at your place or walk your pet around your neighbourhood instead.
“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.”
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.
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.

“Lucero took wonderful care of my dog and gave her so much love and attention while I was away. They played together, went on multiple park outings, and Lucero even brushed her and spoiled her with treats. It was clear my pup felt happy, safe, and cared for the entire time. Lucero is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and trustworthy — your dog will absolutely be in the best hands with her!”
“Travis did an outstanding job looking after our pup during a 7 day trip. He took significant time to do a meet and greet prior to her stay and answered all of our questions and took time to thoughtfully understand her routine and behaviors. While we were away, Travis consistently gave daily updates with notes on her activities, behavior and a few photos. We truly felt assured our dog was in good hands and she was having a great time, allowing us to enjoy our time away. We are already planning our pup's next stay with Travis, he's the perfect host.”
“Brittany is the best! My pup Nala is a sweetheart but deals with a lot of reactivity issues and it’s hard to find someone with enough experience, patience, trust, and love to watch her while I’m out of town. Brittany was more than willing and able to work with her and give her a chance. Brittany was AMAZING with her. I didn’t worry once about Nala while I was out of the country. She walked her multiple times per day, played with her, made sure she was always safe, and gave her so much love. She already has crates for large dogs at her home, which made everything so much easier. She gave me lots of updates, pictures, and videos every single day. She followed all of the instructions I left and took her job very seriously. Nala loved her so much and I could tell she felt right at home. Thank you so much Brittany!”
“Ryan took excellent care of my husky, Scarlet, for two weeks. She had a blast with him:). He frequently sent me photos and updates, which I greatly appreciated, and he even took the time to wash Scarlet's leash, which was so kind. Scarlet came back a very happy dog:). I highly recommend Ryan!!”
“Jen was wonderful with our pup - we got updates throughout the day each day we were gone and we can tell she was cared for very well. We will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Christina and Marty are always responsive and share frequent updates. They take great care of our pup and have helped us out many times when we’ve had to travel last minute. Highly recommend!”
“Alicia was great taking care of my golden retriever.Rilee. she kept me up-to-date with photos and texts and was extremely responsive. I highly recommend her.”
“My pup and I were in Los Angeles from out of state and I needed a place to leave Pepper overnight so my friends nd I could go to a restaurant for dinner and a museum the next day. I can’t say enough positive things about Pepper’s stay with Jaime and Todd. They were absolutely terrific. Their home is perfectly set up for a pup’s stay, including a doggie door to their lovely enclosed backyard. Jaimie and Todd are delightful, kind, warm, welcoming and they clearly love taking care of dogs. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again!”
“Martin is the best sitter we’ve found from Rover! We have a reactive dog and we’re very selective with who we leave our dog with—Martin exceeded all expectations! He is very communicative and flexible. He sends lots of updates and photos. Our dog immediately loved and trusted him from the very beginning and we can’t wait to book with Martin again!”
“Dina is very caring and attentive. She and her husband have been great with my dog and some scheduling changes we had. Their dog is very sweet and getting along well with the guest dogs. I strongly recommend her.”
“Angela did an outstanding job while taking care of our dog for a week. I was kept updated on a daily basis about Ralphie’s behavior and any concerns or questions. Angela sent me many photos of Ralphie at home and from walks. She gave him a bath before we picked him up. Angela accommodated and was very clear about the drop off and pickup instructions. No fuss. Although, this was my first time that we had Angela taking care of Ralphie, I was completely relieved. Ralphie was very happy and was probably disappointed having to leave Angela and her paw-friendly home. Angela will be my go-to pet-sitter in the future and we greatly appreciate her. Thank you Angela for your amazing care!”
“Stephanie took great care of Frida. Asked all the right questions before, provided daily updates, and most importantly, Frida came home happy, tired, and healthy. We look forward to having Frida stay with Stephanie again while we’re away!”
“One of the most pleasant people to meet. Charlie can be picky with his rovers. I haven’t had a problem getting him out of the car when bringing him to Katia. 10/10 recommend.”
“Jamie was great! Pup was very nervous going into a new space, but by the end of the weekend was playing and settling in. Got great pictures and videos during her stay that put me at ease the first time boarding her. Jamie will definitely be a top choice when needing to board in the future.”
“Samuel is the best! This is the second time he has taken care of our dog and she was so excited to see him. We feel so comfortable leaving her while we’re away and enjoy updates and photos every day. Thank you Samuel!”
“Mia was so amazing with our dog Sydney. Syd is a super hyperactive pitbull who demands a lot of love 😂 and Mia showered her with love and attention all week. I felt really comfortable leaving her there for the week while we were out of town. She clearly has a lot of experience with dogs and was a A* communicator!”
“Susana and Travis were great! got daily reports and pictures! Joey seemed super happy, cared for and loved having another dog to hang with! Thank you so much! Would definitely use again!”
“Rebecca was so responsive and flexible with our last minute booking! Her apartment complex has a fenced grass area which was a nice plus for our dog. We will definitely be booking Rebecca again!”
