Ivy was amazing with Boomer. We had a last minute change in the schedule and she accommodated us right away, made special arrangements to have Boomer dropped off so we can make our flight. She sent us lots and lots of pictures and videos of Boomer all the time, and they always put a smile on the kids’ faces! We will most definitely use Ivy again, and refer her to all of our family and friends!

Rachel and Preston were amazing dog sitters! They texted me daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. During the stay, my one-year-old dog and their dog became best friends, and it was clear my dog was having the best time and receiving lots of love and attention. I feel so lucky to have found the best care for my dog, and I will definitely use their services again!

This was my pups first time with an extended stay so I was quite hesitant in using someone I had just met. MaryAnn and her family have a great set up at their dog friendly home. It was reassuring to see Brie was comfortable with MaryAnn from the start of the meet and greet up until the time I picked her up. Pick up and drop off was easily coordinated. I also received plenty of pictures and updates throughout the week. MaryAnn clearly provided a safe and loving place for Brie to stay. I could not be happier with the care she received. Brie would gladly stay with MaryAnn again!!

Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!

Amazing Experience! Kevin & his family treated our Ruby as if she was a member of their own family. My family was able to enjoy our trip knowing our baby was being well taken care of. We received regular updates with pictures of our Ruby having an absolute blast during her stay. She had so much fun, she almost didnt't want to come home. I would highly recommend his services and wouldn't hesitate to board with him again in the future.

About: For the past 5 years I've pet sat for family and friends, especially during the summer. Many have suggested I venture out to pet sit on the side because they love how I care for their pets. Pets are part of the family and I understand the importance of a trusting pet sitter. Your pets safety and well being will always be my priority! Hi pet parents! 🐾 To make sure I can give your fur babies the best care possible, here is a quick update on my current availability and my upcoming schedule: Current Work Days & Late-Night Walks On the days you see blocked off on my calendar, I am working my day job from 7:00 AM to 7:30 PM. Need a late-night walk? Please still reach out! I am happy to accommodate later evening walks or drop-ins on my work days once I wrap up. Upcoming Fall Schedule (Starting August 31) I will be starting my nursing school classes, which means my weekday availability will shift a bit: Mondays & Tuesdays: Unavailable 8:00 AM – 11:35 AM Thursdays & Fridays: Unavailable 6:30 AM – 2:55 PM Note: Outside of these specific class blocks, I am highly flexible! If you need care on these days, send me a message and we can easily work around my school hours. Looking forward to seeing your pups and kitties soon! 😊 My priority is the safety and well being of your pet! I thoroughly review all the information provided of your pet and communicate any questions I may have. I make an effort to know feeding schedules, potty preferences and activity schedules before meeting your pet. My goal is make sure your pet feels at home with zero disruption to their routine.

It was lovely to meet Janelle. She was right on time for our meet and greet, stayed long enough to get all important information, asked good questions and was gentle and kind with my senior dog. I am sorry we were not able to work together this time but I do think Janelle would be a good sitter for someone else.

About: The first family pet o ever took care of was a calico cat named Keisha,. She had already been a member of he family for over a year before I was born so I guess it’s fair to say she took care of me for the first decade. That's the only time I can remember us having just one cat in my childhood. You've had all kinds of breeds and both indoor and outdoor cats alike. I have yet to own or take care of a Maine Coon and I sure would like to one day. I've always seemed to be the one that can get the cat to come out from hiding when no one else can.

About: I have nearly 20 years of hands-on experience owning and caring for cats at every stage of life, from energetic kittens to senior cats needing specialized attention. Because of my lifelong background, I understand that cats aren't just "low-maintenance pets"—they have unique personalities, boundaries, and care requirements that deserve dedicated attention. I'm completely comfortable giving all kinds of medications—whether it’s pills, liquids, inhalers, or injections—so your cat's health routine won't miss a beat. I’m great at reading cat body language. If they want to play and hang out, I aim for at least 60 minutes of active playtime a day using lasers, wand toys, or whatever they love most to keep them happy and entertained. if they’re shy and just want to sleep or be left alone, I totally respect their space and let them do their thing.

Hector was the best taking care of my cat! He was extremely responsible and careful and followed all my instructions to take care of Kitty. I had to travel to my home country for a couple of weeks, and having Hector around made me feel comfortable. He was super responsive to the texts and always made sure he posted an update for me for every visit. He kept my place clean, brought in any packages that were outside of my apartment and took care of everything I asked him to do. I could also see how well he treated Kitty, and how he played with her and pet her. My cat really adores him. He was also super polite with me and it was a pleasure dealing with him. I will definitely call Hector next time a need a sitter, I know my cat will be on the best hands! Thanks a lot, Hector, you are the best! :-)

About: I had a boston terrier and doberman as pets. Though I don’t have professional experience in taking care of dogs, I love taking care of people and pets. I’m open to learning, observant, communicative. I’m a nurse who works 3 days a week, studying part time and I am seeking for tasks I can do during my free time. I currently do not have pets at home right now. I have more interest in walking pets and drop-in visits. I also have the patience and strength to wall bigger dogs as I had a doberman who was 1-2 yrs old.

About: Your cat will be wrapped in love every second they’re with me! 🐾🐱 I care for every kitty like they’re part of my own family—with gentle attention, cozy cuddle sessions (if they’re into that!), playtime, and all the love their heart can hold. 💕 With over 2 years of professional experience at a pet boarding facility and more than a decade of rescuing and raising animals, I’m confident caring for cats of all ages and personalities. At home, I’m a proud cat parent to a sassy feline who keeps me on my toes as well as three needy pups! so I understand the unique needs of our independent, quirky, and sometimes particular fur babies. Whether your cat is playful, shy, senior, or needs extra TLC, they’ll be in experienced, loving hands with me.💕

About: I have been caring for pets (dogs and cats) since I was 5 years old as both a pet owner and sitter. I understand how difficult it can be to be away from your pet family members and will send regular pics and updates to keep you informed about your pet's well-being while you're away. I have always been passionate about researching and finding effective natural solutions to support pet health and am happy to recommend helpful approaches for your pets specific needs at your request. I also have lots of senior dog care experience, and am comfortable administering most meds that don't involve needles. My beloved senior dog with special needs (lost use of hind legs among other things) recently passed away and I miss him but am so thankful for the time we had. I learned a lot about using natural remedies to support senior dog health from him and also learned to walk him with support for his hind end. I am currently able to provide drop in visits for pets in the Mountain Glen I community in Sylmar at this time. If you live in this community and need help caring for your family pet, please reach out so we can arrange a time to meet. Happy to help with dogs, cats and possibly other kinds of pets. I can board too, but only for pets I know and have worked with previously. I always look for and implement practices that will create a safe, peaceful, healthy and nurturing environment for pets in my home and only board pets from the same home at the same time. Boarding and day-care are only available for pets I know and have worked with previously.

I was looking for a daycare option for my corgi to get used to bigger dogs again after a bad experience with a loose dog. Brasilio gladly did a meet and greet with us and brought his Husky to meet Tucker. He was very laid back with Tucker and very comfortable giving him a chance to get acclimated to his dog. Tucker responded very well so I felt like he’d be in good hands w/ Brasilio. He was also very accommodating when he needed to stay overnight when I had a schedule change and wanted to just pick him up the next day. Tucker has been doing MUCH better with new dog friends thanks to Brasilio!

We were visiting LA and required a last minute sitter due to the hot weather. Edwin and his family were quick to respond and accepted Java last minute! Edwin and his family were so great! We got the updates that we wanted throughout the day and Java looked like she was having fun. Java was spoiled during her stay and even received some homemade dinner. We would definitely recommend you leave your pet with them and we would if we are back in the area.

My main option on here is dog boarding but, depending on the dog boarding schedule, I or somebody else on my team could also be open to do drop ins, house sitting, or walks, especially for those who have already used our boarding services. Please ask about these additional services after a confirmed boarding session. I’m in the middle of taking a few years off from teaching high school because A) Who couldn’t use a break from that? and B) I am focusing on building up a short-term rental business (Airbnb mostly). As an Airbnb host I spend a lot of time at home and have found that one of my favorite things to do is play with dogs in the yard (especially, when there’s more than one of them here at the same time!) and take them on trips to the park. I love dogs and am very reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I live in a house with a fenced yard and all of the instructions you leave will be followed to keep your little buddy happy & safe! I am home most of the day and when I do leave it's usually only for an hour or two at a time. Most of what I do at home (working on a computer, household chores, yard work) I do in the presence of whatever dogs happen to be staying at that time. One limitation that I do try to stick to is to avoid scheduling drop-offs or pickups on Sundays before 10:00 am. Unfortunately, Rover doesn't give me the option to block off those times without blocking out the entire day so adding this note here is the only way to give you a heads up (hopefully, you read this before booking). I have a fenced yard and usually board 2 or 3 dogs at a time so that they have playmates. If ever I leave the house, dogs are left inside. Dogs that stay here must be up to date on shots as well as on a flea-prevention medication.

About: I’m a true dog lover and treat every dog like part of my family. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and ages, including senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I currently have Olive, my 4-year-old Boston Terrier, and Chewy, my 14-year-old Shih Tzu, so I understand both energetic playtime and gentle senior care. My home is calm, safe, and full of love, and I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone you trust. I provide personalized attention, regular potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, and photo updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. Your dog will be treated like one of my own from the moment they arrive. I have a very flexible schedule and can provide lots of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I have plenty of time for potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles, and companionship throughout the day. Your dog will stay in a loving home with a secure backyard for supervised outdoor time and play. I have two dogs of my own, Olive, my energetic and playful Boston Terrier, and Chewy, a sweet senior Shih Tzu. Because Olive loves to play and has a high-energy personality, I prefer meet-and-greets beforehand to make sure everyone is comfortable and a good fit.

The most amazing experience today while Alexis and his wife Melissa took care our sweet Darla. Being that she is still a puppy I’m always hesitant to leave her with someone I don’t know but from the initial time I let them I became comfortable and Darla was excited meeting them too. I will definitely reach out next time I need someone to take care of our puppy Darla.

About: I have been caring for pets (dogs and cats) since I was 5 years old as both a pet owner and sitter. I understand how difficult it can be to be away from your pet family members and will send regular pics and updates to keep you informed about your pet's well-being while you're away. I have always been passionate about researching and finding effective natural solutions to support pet health and am happy to recommend helpful approaches for your pets specific needs at your request. I also have lots of senior dog care experience, and am comfortable administering most meds that don't involve needles. My beloved senior dog with special needs (lost use of hind legs among other things) recently passed away and I miss him but am so thankful for the time we had. I learned a lot about using natural remedies to support senior dog health from him and also learned to walk him with support for his hind end. I am currently able to provide drop in visits for pets in the Mountain Glen I community in Sylmar at this time. If you live in this community and need help caring for your family pet, please reach out so we can arrange a time to meet. Happy to help with dogs, cats and possibly other kinds of pets. I can board too, but only for pets I know and have worked with previously. I always look for and implement practices that will create a safe, peaceful, healthy and nurturing environment for pets in my home and only board pets from the same home at the same time. Boarding and day-care are only available for pets I know and have worked with previously.

Bernadette took great care of Wensley. He seemed really content when I picked him up, and I appreciated her flexibility as far as drop off time. She's a great communicator and kept me posted with pictures. I will definitely be using Bernadette again for Wensley's future doggy daycare needs. Also, he loved the extra little doggy treats Bernadette had made. Such a great little surprise.

I highly recommend Natalie as a pet sitter! I was able to book her last minute, and she was incredibly communicative from the start, asking thoughtful questions to ensure compatibility with her own pet. Despite not knowing how my dog would socialize with others, Natalie was willing to give it a try and had a plan to manage any issues. She worked diligently to help him socialize, and it was evident in how quickly he warmed up to her—a rare behavior for him. By the end of the day, he was thoroughly exhausted from all the fun. When it was time to leave, he seemed reluctant to go, clearly having enjoyed his day. Natalie's flexibility and commitment to ensuring a safe and enjoyable environment for my dog makes her an outstanding pet sitter. THANK YOU!

About: I’m kind and patient with pets. I understand that they are not the same but do require the same type of care and love. I enjoy playing with them and giving them belly rubs and taking them for walks. I’m currently on summer breaks and would like to spend time caring for pets when their loved ones are away. It may be difficult on some families due to their schedule so I would like to make it easier on them. They way I would care for my clients pet at their home. I will check on them first and then see if they have water in their bowl. Will see if they require feeding. Lastly I will follow the instructions left my client. If they need a walk or play with them and keep them company.

They are great company I believe petting an animal can lower your blood pressure. Your pets need extra affection while you’re gone. I’m there for that. I am a retired mom of self-sufficient teenagers. My flexible schedule allows me to do overnights and weekends and multi night care. I look forward to these jobs. I’m experienced with crating. I love some dog walking exercise. I also really enjoy spending time in a backyard as long as it’s fenced in and secure.

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and animals have always been one of the biggest joys in my life. I absolutely love dogs, cats, and animals of all kinds. I’ve had cats and dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I currently have two dogs and five cats of my own, so I understand the love, attention, and commitment that pets need every day. If you know me, you know I’m the person who gets excited every time I see a dog on a walk or a cat lounging outside. I’m always the first one asking if I can pet a dog, and I never pass by a stray animal without trying to make sure it has food, water, or a little kindness. My love for animals is genuine, and spending time with them never feels like a job to me. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for my own pets when they’ve been sick. Whenever one of my cats or dogs needed medication, special care, or extra attention, I was usually the one making sure they got what they needed. Because of this, I’m comfortable following care instructions and being patient with pets who may need a little extra support. In addition to my experience with animals, I work in healthcare, which has taught me the importance of responsibility, attentiveness, and compassion. I understand how important it is to pay attention to details, follow routines, and provide quality care—skills that I bring with me when caring for pets as well. I’m often the go-to pet sitter for family and friends whenever they need someone reliable to care for their pets. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, medication administration, or simply keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision. My goal is to make sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind that they’re in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits really naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I currently work night shift, which means my days are usually free and very flexible. Because of that, I have plenty of time and availability to dedicate to walking, drop-ins, and spending quality time with pets during the day. I actually love that my schedule allows me to be fully present when I’m caring for animals—I’m not rushing between work or distracted by a 9–5 schedule. I can give pets my full attention, whether that means morning walks, midday visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just keeping them company and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. My routine also makes it easy for me to be consistent and reliable with scheduling. I’m used to balancing responsibilities and working odd hours, so I’m very organized and good at sticking to care instructions and time-sensitive routines. Overall, my flexible daytime availability makes pet care a perfect fit for my lifestyle, and I really enjoy being able to spend that time doing something I genuinely love. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my main priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as relaxed as possible while their owners are away. I always take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so I can keep things consistent and familiar for them. I approach every visit with patience and calm energy, letting pets warm up to me at their own pace. Whether it’s feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, or just spending quiet time together, I make sure each pet gets the attention and care they need. I’m also very detail-oriented when it comes to following instructions. If a pet has a specific feeding schedule, medication routine, or special care needs, I make sure everything is done exactly as requested. I have experience administering medications and caring for pets with extra medical needs, so I’m comfortable handling those responsibilities with care and reliability. While I’m in the home, I also make sure everything stays clean, respectful, and as you left it. My goal is not only to care for your pet, but to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands and your home is being respected. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they’re my own—always with love, patience, and attention to their unique personality.

About: I’m an animal rights activist, a vegan, and an environmentalist, so I’m always fighting for the animals, wild or domestic! We had all sorts of animals while I was growing up, including cats and dogs. We started with cats and two beagles, and after the beagles' passing, we adopted the sweetest schnoodle (schnauzer-poodle) on the planet! Long story short, after my sister and I moved out, my parents ended up with two more dogs and trusted only one person (other than my sister) to look after all three dogs when they (my folks) would go on trips: me. We continued to have cats and other animals during that time. My parents are down to two dogs now, but that's been one of my jobs for the last several years, in addition to looking after friends' dogs. I've also volunteered at a couple of shelters as a cat socializer and cat/kitten foster parent. During that time, I completed a "Fear Free Shelter" course and understand the signs of distressed dogs and cats and how to reduce their stress (one spoiler: classical music for dogs). I’m also certified in canine and feline first aid/CPR. Anyway, I love doing drop-in visits and dog walking and am happy to offer my home as a daycare. I love seeing animals in the comfort of their own homes and letting dogs explore my backyard. I'm currently funemployed, so I have time to do drop-in visits, dog walking, and doggy daycare most days. Dogs staying with me for the day would have access to our fenced backyard. If you need only dog-walking or drop-in sittings, then I can usually start after 10a. For doggy daycare, I’ll be sure to provide the stability and boundaries your fur baby needs. Your dog is welcome on the couch during the day, and we have a heated and air conditioned home during the hot and cold months. If I'm in your home, such as for drop-in visits, I'll use Rover Cards to let you know when I arrive, document how things went while I was there (with photos), and let you know when I head out. It would also help me tremendously if you could provide written instructions on Rover ahead of time. My goal is to provide all of the comfort your honey needs while you’re away. (I've been that anxious pet guardian myself, so I get it!)

Plus I am a really patient person, so it helps when I care for my dogs when its time to brush their fur, give them a bath, walk them or train them. I work a part-time job, so I can definitely be available for a few days out of the week. With a few days in advance notice it works out perfectly with me.

Anna did an amazing job with our senior dog. She sent daily pictures and updates and It was so nice not to have to worry about anything while we were away. Thanks so much, Anna! I will be in touch for when we go out of town next. Thanks for the sweet plant and card as well. You are the best!

About: Over the years I have cared for my own pets as I always grew up with dogs. I have also pet and house sat on a number of occasions for friends and family members, and through word-of-mouth. I also enjoy gardening and caring for plants. I make sure to plan my day around your pet’s individual needs and schedule. I have a flexible schedule and make sure to prioritize your pets well-being. I make sure pets feel comfortable and loved while sticking to their usual routines. I follow any specific instructions from the owner, whether it’s feeding, walking, or playtime. I keep an eye on their health and behavior, and if they need medication or special care, I handle it carefully. Above all, I aim to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel secure while their owners are away.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7. I love to provide videos and pics updates throughout the day for peace of mind. If you have special requests, please let me know. I'm a full time student and I have plenty of the time to play with your pets. Sitting is my way to earn college tuition fee. Thanks for your support! I walk dogs out at least three times per day and they will be gated in the living room with plenty of toys, water and food to match your speciation.

Bruno had an amazing time with Laura and Brian: they took great care of our family pup. They constantly sent pics and updates. It was Bruno’s first time being away from home; and he did so good. We are considering doggy day care with Laura and Brian because of how great Bruno did. It’s wonderful to come across folks who’ve spent time with different breeds of dogs so they know what to expect. Yet also, have the understanding that every dog is different. Thanks so much!!!!!!

Amazing Experience! Kevin & his family treated our Ruby as if she was a member of their own family. My family was able to enjoy our trip knowing our baby was being well taken care of. We received regular updates with pictures of our Ruby having an absolute blast during her stay. She had so much fun, she almost didnt't want to come home. I would highly recommend his services and wouldn't hesitate to board with him again in the future.

Candy has been wonderful at taking care of my dog Arlo. From the meet and greet, he was already comfortable in her home and the friendly, safe environment she created. She gave me updates on how he was doing and sent photos as well. I felt secure knowing he was doing well and was in good hands. I would definitely book another stay with Candy again.

Anebelle and Ben were amazing. They accommodated tedious different diet needs of our two dogs. They treated our dogs like their own; cuddling with them in bed, taking them on long walks, and keeping them entertained through out. Annabelle and Ben’s kids also made our dogs feel at home and showered them with affection. Annabelle also made sure to send daily updates with pictures and videos, allowing us to enjoy our vacation guilt-free. Needless to say, Annabelle and Ben will be our go to

Lillybeth & her family were great! It was our first time leaving our "COVID" puppy overnight with someone outside of our family, so we were a bit worried initially. Lillybeth kept us updated with photos and reassured us that they were doing great. She was also very communicative and quick to respond. Our dogs came back happy and tired, so I'm sure they had a wonderful time. Thank you Lillybeth!

About: I love all dogs, being able to help develop their social interaction skills, being able to help exercise or create a stress relief for dogs is what makes me want to take care of dogs. Giving them unconditional love is a plus! Im currently a full time student so Ill be home for long periods of time and be around anytime and any day. If anything I like having company. Im always attentive towards the pets I take care of and give them the same amount of love their owners give if not then more.

She kept us updated often and sent lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were happy and well taken care of.

We left our Shiba Inu over a long weekend with Stacey. Our experience was wonderful. The house is great and Stacey’s whole family was so accommodating and loving to our dog. The back yard is large and all fenced in, and our dog was allowed both in and outside. Stacey spent lots of time playing fetch with our dog, taught her a new trick ( to lay down), and spent lots of time giving her pets and cuddles. This was the first time we have ever left our dog and we were nervous but Stacey sent us so many pictures and updates, and she really took care to make us feel at ease. We were able to have a nice vacation away and our dog was safe and loved while we were gone. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!!
