“Highly recommend! 11/10 sitter! They kept me up to date on how my dogs were the whole time I was away with photos and videos. My dogs looked like they were part of the family. It was such a relief to know they were in such good hands while I was away!”
“Marc and Lori were so wonderful to my Freddie. It was the perfect home away from home. They kept me updated with lots of fun photos, they are extremely responsive and even sent Freddie home with Christmas presents. I would highly recommend!’”
“Nicole and Michael are so fun and they took great care of my Tyson for a little over 2 weeks while we went off to get married and have our honeymoon! I asked for a lot of pictures and she sent me really great candid photos of Tyson playing/hanging out at the park with the other dogs which we really looked forward to. When Tyson’s food was near empty Nicole was so kind to offer to pick up a new bag of food for him, and of course we paid her back! The cutest part was that when I picked up Tyson, he actually cried as Nicole and Michael drove away. I could tell he really felt at home with them and their dogs. I’m going away on another 4 day trip in a few days and we’ve already set up with Nicole and Michael again. Tyson is going to be thrilled to see his second pack again! Overall, Nicole is quick to respond via message, very professional, and so kind! Worth every penny! Thanks guys!”
“We couldn’t be happier with Marcelo e Elaine. They took care of our dog for 40 days and kept sending daily updates with photos and videos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our dog came back happy and healthy, clearly well-loved. We highly recommend Marcelo e Elaine to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter.”
“Recently I had to look for a new dog sitter and found Camille. After our first meet and greet I could tell Beau would love spending time with her and around her house. He loves being outside and she has a large yard which I drop him off and he's already running around long forgetting about me. She sends updated photos and is great with communication. Beau struggles eating sometimes but has not had an issue when staying here! Would recommend again and again!”
“Barbara was amazing with Sherman! He is always a bit shy at the start and she was very understanding. He warmed up super fast and had a great visit!! If we are in the area again, we will absolutely use Barbara to watch Sherman!”
“It was the second time I left my baby with Kristina and her lovely family. By the time we got there, Joey was super happy and excited and I could tell he had a great time with them before. Kristina is super professional and kind and I highly highly recommend her. She is the best. Thank you 🙏♥️”
“First time using rover and I don’t really know how my dog would react with other sitter. I was pretty amazed how my dog got along pretty quickly with James. Definitely would recommend James for any pet sitting. He keeps you updated with everything throughout the whole day. For sure I’ll be coming back again here with James. Thanks James!”
“Once again, my pup had a stellar stay with Nancy! As always, she takes the very best care of him and is incredibly communicative and helpful. Nancy is a true dog whisperer - I can't imagine working with anyone esle.”
About: Hi! I am a dog mom myself, so my husband and I will work together to take great care of your pooch! I have a Golden Retriever, Toby. He’s high energy and loves to play so sometimes comes in hot with others. Please let me know if there have been any issues with that with your dog. I had a little one for 14 years so comfortable with all sizes of dogs- I love them all. My schedule is pretty flexible and I will definitely try to accommodate your timing needs. I am home most of the day Tues-Fri. My husband is home on weekends and can be WFH flexible on Mondays for dog care as needed. Our golden, Toby, always gets a walk in the morning and plays throughout the day. Access to the fenced backyard is available all day. I have a fenced front and back yard. Dogs have access to the backyard all day when we’re home, and will be encouraged to go potty before we leave to go anywhere. No unsupervised front yard time, but if we’re doing stuff, they can hang out. We can crate other dogs, but Toby does not get crated, so happy to cover the crate to reduce fomo!
“Angie was fantastic! She sent so many pictures and updates throughout Churro’s stay which she knew was so important to us. We felt very comfortable leaving our boy in her care. She was super thorough and detail-oriented at the meet & greet which we really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Angie!!!”
“Alejandro did a great job with my dog this weekend. We had booked a last minute trip to universal studios and Alejandro was available, even on short notice. He was kind, sent great pictures throughout the day, appeared to have a nice yard, and took great care of my dog. Thank you!!”
“Wow! Kimberly made the whole process so easy. We had a last minute trip come up and she responded quickly to our request and continued to be communicative throughout Buddy’s stay. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was well cared for!”
“My fur babies Max and Lucy loved Sandi right off the bat when they first met which is rare because it does take my dogs a few meets to like people. I was nervous to leave them as this was the first time I had ever used Rover but it was a great experience. Sandi was very accommodating to us since we were traveling from a far and our arrival time kept getting delayed. She was quick with her responses and communication was clear throughout. She sent me pictures to ensure me of their well being and texted me updates. Sandi also was very welcoming to us and flexible to our needs. Sandi is a "Gem" and I would like to keep her a secret so she doesn't get over booked in the event we needed in the future but I don't want to be selfish because she's AWESOME and treat your fur kids as if they were hers!..”
“Keely was absolutely the best pet sitter we could have hoped for! Our little pooch was I. Heaven with her and she sent us such frequent, reassuring photos of him! She is kind, patient, responsible, caring, responsive and dependable! We will definitely call on her next time we take a trip. Thank you Keely!”
“We were so happy to find Mary to watch our pup. I knew she was going to be great after meeting her and seeing her beautiful fenced in backyard. She made me feel at ease by asking all the right questions to make sure the Macy would be happy. Everything went great! We will definitely use Mary again.”
“Michael and Jessica are fantastic! I love that they wanted to make sure that my Lotti was friendly with their dogs before even booking. It made me feel safe leaving her there with them. They were very accommodating and I'll definitely be using them again soon!”
“My pup had a wonderful time with Chan. I received photos throughout his stay. I think he had more fun with Chan and his dog than he has had at home with me! I will definitely book another stay with Chan!”

“Katherine is so great with our cat, Opal! She helped us when our sitter didn’t workout last minute and has been awesome with Opal. We definitely recommend her to take care of your pets 😊”
“We had such a wonderful experience with Yvonne! She took amazing care of our two little ones, Leo and Luna, and treated them like her own. She was attentive, loving, reliable, and kept us updated, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they are comfortable and happy. We came home to two very happy pets! I would absolutely trust Yvonne again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone dependable and caring to watch their pets.”
“Gabriela's catsitting for our cat Riddle was the definition of above and beyond. Our cat is one year old and very energetic. When this meant that she toppled the auto-feeding machine that we had set up for the mornings (multiple times), Gabriela went out of her way to come to our apartment outside of her scheduled check-ins (multiple times) to make sure Riddle still got fed and to fix the machine (ultimately improvising a clever solution to support it involving a scarf and a bookshelf). Needless to say, we will be getting a new auto-feeder but keeping the same catsitter in the future if we can, haha. Gabriela was attentive and helpful and Riddle was head over hills for her, I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet!”
“Catherine is an absolute life saver!! When a friend cancelled last minute she was available in pinch to take care of my kitties. Her profile said she loved kitties and that it 100% true. They loved her instantly during the meet and greet and I knew they would be in good hands from that. Which is really important when I was out of the country for 3 weeks on the other side of the globe. I felt secure and could relax knowing they were well taken care of and got the attention they deserve. My cat Pepper was absolutely in love with Catherine. I might just have to book and day here and there so they can spend more time together.”
“Huge thank you to Samantha for taking care of my cat while I was out of the country. This was the first time I was leaving my pet for an entire week and her attention to detail and collaboration made the process so awesome and stress free ?”
“Kelly is absolutely phenomenal! We had a great experience. She is extremely communicative, sends photos and updates with every visit, and really takes the time to give my sweet cat the love and attention she needs. I didn’t have to worry about at all because I knew Kelly was taking wonderful care of my cat. I will definitely be booking her again. We are so grateful to have found her!”
“Natalie goes above and beyond every time she cares for our guinea pigs. We recently lost one last month, unfortunately, and when we booked Natalie a week ago she shared her heartfelt condolences to our family and even surprised us with flowers and a beautiful card. Booking Natalie is exactly what you're hoping for: an expert at what she does, but an even better person.”
“Naomi is amazing and very trustworthy! My cat loves being around her and she's always extremely communicative. Naomi is great about sending updates and pictures! Naomi is reliable and I cannot recommend her enough!”
About: Lifelong cat lover and owner with years of experience caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and temperaments 🐈✨ I’ve always had cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone patient, calm, and trustworthy caring for them while you’re away. Whether your cat is playful and social or more shy and independent, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for in their own space. Lots of updates, attention, and spoiled-kitty energy included 💛
“Shilo took excellent care of our cat Bean. She is a true animal lover and spent a lot of quality time interacting with him, which he appreciated. He loves attention and gets bored when we are away. She also notices and takes a care of lots of little details outside of the usual instructions, like noticing if the temperature in the house is ok, or tidying up the food area if it gets messy. She also sent us a million pictures which was so nice. Highly recommend!”
“Dayna is very friendly and super communicative! We had a really good experience having her look after our 2 cats during our trip and will definitely book with her again in the future. We also really appreciate her experience with cats as she has a good understanding of their personalities and boundaries. Our normally shy cat warmed up to her very fast and had a great time. Thank you, Dayna!!”
About: Having taken care of 4 dogs at home, as well as a ferret, I can easily handle more than just one pet at a time. Especially loving to walk and run myself, I am excited to have the possibility to have a buddy to join me. I am currently working from home so I am free all week and able to step away whenever necessary. If that be a bathroom break, longer walk or simply just to play. I will make sure that I am offering support for being there and playing with the dog. Making sure that they are eating and getting to go outside to play as well as use the bathroom. My main focus is to make it feel as though I am the owner and they can full relax knowing their regular day to day life can be continued.
“Genesis was amazing! She came to save the day on last minute plans. She’s incredibly responsive, flexible and helpful! I came home to a happy well taken care of fur baby and home. She’s very trusting and I would hire her again!”
“I loved my cat drop-in visit experience with Debora! I booked her through Rover pretty last minute for the Thanksgiving holiday. She was very polite & sweet. She gave a very detailed report about my cat, Coco right after her visit and I felt at ease when she sent 3-4 photos. Because I travel a lot for work, I would 100% hire her again! Loved my experience and would recommend to anyone needing an extra hand!”
“Sara was great! She took care of our cat during an extended period, checking in regularly and providing updates that gave us peace of mind. Her communication was good, she was friendly, and reliable. We’ll be using Sara’s services again and would recommend her.”
“Bailey was amazing!! My cat absolutely loved her and she was always very descriptive with her check ins. My cat was clearly very happy with her and she did a fantastic job! Bailey has super clear communication and is so nice. Katsu and I appreciate you Bailey!”
“Adam was awesome! We came back to very happy dogs and Adam sent us plenty of pictures to let us know how happy our dogs were. We have large, high energy dogs so this was no easy task! Adam definitely went above and beyond what was expected!!”

“Nicole was the best sitter for my dog!! She took him in at last notice and made sure he was comfortable in a new space. I loved how she sent me updates via photos too! Will definitely have her sit Ninja again!”
“Ofelia was a great sitter for our dog Benny. She was communicative and provided updates. Benny seemed to be happy to come back and it’s great knowing he was loved and cared for!”
“Kieran is one of the kindest and most patient sitters I’ve met. She took incredible care of my dog and helped me understand his behavioral changes when he’s away from me. It wasn’t just dogsitting, it was a learning experience for Louie and me!! Thank you Kieran!!!”
“Sandi is a great sitter! My gf was worried initially but was very pleased with Sandi’s care. Enzo loved his stay that actually hesitated to leave. Would definitely leave Enzo in her care again. Thank you so much Sandi!”
About: For the past 4 years, I’ve been caring for my own dog and my friends dogs with love and patience. This experience taught me not only the basics of feeding, walking, and training, but also how important it is to give pets gentle attention and make them feel safe and loved. I will care for your pet with the same kindness and responsibility as I do my own. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible with my time. I already do this for my own dog—adjusting my day around walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship—so I can easily do the same for your pet. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood that’s safe and walkable, perfect for daily walks. My home has a large open space where pets can relax and play. With several years of personal experience caring for my own dog, I provide a trustworthy and loving environment where your pet will feel right at home.
“Mary is absolutely wonderful. Dogs are her passion, and she immediately bonded with my border collie, Randy. She has a beautiful home and a huge backyard for doggie playtime or just hanging out. Mary’s adorable cocker spaniel Molly is super friendly, and she and Randy became fast friends. I will definitely contact Mary for more dog sitting!”
About: Growing up in Chicago I've had dogs/cats my whole entire life. Moving to LA made it unavailable for me to have my own anymore. I can exercise with dogs. I do runyan canyon atleast 3 times a week. I work from home and enjoy getting out every two hours for 30 minutes and having a lil buddy to hang out with during the day while I work. I broke both of my legs last year in a pair of motorcycle accidents so I really have a new appreciation for walking haha. I'd say your dog and I are doing each other favors. Your pup is in good hands with me. I keep it simple and I'll do what you need me to do with your dog.
“My puppy loves it here. Daycare has been great and he gets the exercise he needs throughout the day. He also comfortably rests and gets super excited once we pull up. 100% rebooking.”
“My pup had a lovely time with Nancy and her pack of 3 small dogs! We did a thorough Meet & Greet, introducing the dogs on a brief walk, seeing her home, and going through my dog’s routine and preferences. On the first day of dog sitting, Nancy sent me regular updates of everyone going on plenty of walks and getting along. I appreciated Nancy’s dedication as a dog lover and the thoughtful questions she asked to make my pup comfortable in her home 💜”
“Mandy did a great job of making my dog, Charlotte, feel comfortable and relaxed in a new situation. Her communication was prompt, professional, and friendly.”
“We tend to be abit concerned when leaving our pup with sitters because he can get anxious around other dogs. We are grateful that Peter took the time to get to know Loop more, and put our worries at ease. Loop had a wonderful time with him and his other dogs! We are so glad to have found another great sitter for our boy.”

“When Tyler says “above and beyond” she truly means it! This was my first experience with Rover and was so fortunate to have booked with Tyler. She was extremely responsive, highly communicative, and truly embodied what it means to be a “dog person”. During my dogs stay we were provided with several photos and updates throughout the day and upon pick up my pooch was a happy girl. As for the cherry on top, my pup was evidently pampered as she smelled amazing and even had an adorable little bow on her collar. Again…” above and beyond”. Thanks Tyler!”

About: I have had cats and dogs and mice and fish my whole life, and have been many people's go-to consultant for care and advice, and for taking care of their pets when they're out of town. I am one of those people that folks say have "a way with animals". Always have, even when I was a toddler. I can administer medications and injections, help with puppy training, and bring your shy pet out of his or her shell. I rescued my own kitties when they were only a week old and syringe and bottle-fed them and reared them up to be sturdy upright feline citizens of the world. I'm good with the "difficult" cases, and a gentle loving companion to the seniors. I do this because I adore and feel a bond with all animals and creatures of all kinds. :) I am available for morning and mid-day walks and drop-ins, and some evening walks depending on the day, and evening drop-ins most days of the week. I'll dote on your pets as if they are my own, and am happy to follow their routines and rituals and also bring a little novelty and fun to their day.
About: I have my own dogs that I love very much and I will love your dogs the same. I also have helped take care of my friend’s dogs in the past so I have years of experience taking care of dogs. I also have open availability to take care of dogs. I can also support very active dogs which not a lot of people can do. I am currently available for full time pet care. I am mainly focusing on dog sitting at owner’s home or strictly just dog walking for any hours needed. I will dog sit at owner’s home for now. My current living situation will not allow for more dogs. I will gladly spend a few hours at owner’s home if that is needed.
“Catherine has been walking my two pups now for a couple of weeks and I am extremely satisfied with her service. I injured my knee a few weeks ago so I hired Catherine to walk my dogs twice a day. Catherine is always on time and very responsive should I need to change our schedule. My pups come back very energized and I can tell they got a nice workout.”
“Found David last minute! He is flexible, dependable, and can follow instruction’s. He treats my dog like his own and trust him with his knowledge and care for pets!”
About: Hey there! My name is Shayla, and I’ve been caring for pets professionally for over a decade, including working closely with celebrity clients and their beloved animals — many of whom required special attention, medical care, patience, and individualized routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone not only with your pets, but with the comfort and safety of your home as well. I provide loving, reliable pet care with a calm and attentive approach, and I’m happy to accommodate unique schedules, routines, medications, and special requests. In addition to pet sitting, I also offer dog walking, overnight care, house sitting, and companionship visits. ✨ What sets me apart: I create a safe, low-stress, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and cared for like family. My experience ranges from energetic puppies to senior pets needing gentle patience and support. 🐾 Special experience with: ✔︎ Senior pets & puppies ✔︎ Special-needs and disabled pets ✔︎ Administering medicine ✔︎ Anxiety-prone pets & separation anxiety ✔︎ Maintaining routines for comfort and stability ✔︎ Providing attentive, one-on-one care I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I genuinely love taking the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I also really love photography and sending you videos/photos throughout the day! My goal is always to care for your pets as if they were my own — with patience, warmth, responsibility, and plenty of snuggles along the way. I'm very flexible with hours, and I will always be very communicative about my schedule so you are kept informed. I spend every day taking care of animals, and am always flexible with client needs! I've been entrusted with many high-profile clients and am always respectful of others' homes, pets, and belongings. I treat every home and animal as if it were my own, with the utmost care and love! I always keep a tidy home, so have no problem with doing light clean up duties around your home if needed.
“Joselyn really stepped up in a pinch. She was professional and so great with my puppy. When she discovered my puppy had found the bathroom TP and used it as a chew toy she took her time to clean it up! Completely unnecessary but much appreciated. Top notch! I’ve used her multiple times and always impressed! 👏”
About: I've taken care of pets since I was a child. My parents always taught me how to treat animals with respect and care. They are member of a family <3 Unfortunately they can not speak which is why it's important to think two steps ahead to make sure they are safe and happy. During weekdays I'm available from mornings till afternoons, and I can come by in the evenings sometimes too! On the weekends I am fully available :) I will follow all your wishes and guidelines in your house. Facetimes, pictures and videos of your fur baby will of course be done too!
“Adam is AMAZING! our dogs love him and we are so appreciative of how great he cares for them. He has great patience, communicates and goes above and beyond every single time. Hands down the best walker the boys have ever had. Thanks Adam!!!!”
“Naomi has been wonderful. We have a husky who is a big dog and loves her walk every single time they go on one. My pup comes back tired and ready for her nap. My second dog Freya is super skeptical of humans and other dogs but Naomi was super easy to introduce and Freya took an immediate liking to her! So glad to have you be able to walk them and they love their adventure each time.”
“Bailey was awesome & helped me last second with walking my two big dogs (each over 60 pounds). She sent pictures, fed them, and am relieved to have someone trustworthy to help care for my pups when I’m out.”
About: Growing up in a multi-pet household cultivated my deep appreciation for animals. I have extensive experience in dog walking and pet sitting for friends and neighbors. I am also proud to have been the lead trainer in puppy kindergarten classes. I am currently working from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. I am looking to build relationships and help out with reoccurring pet care/dog walking needs. When watching pets at your home I am comfortable feeding, delivering medication, playing with, brushing, crating or doing whatever specific needs your pup or kitty needs! I have two cats at home, so I am unable to board any animals at my apartment.
About: Hi there! My name is Gwendolyn. I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with an extremely active border collie . I first began walking neighbor’s dogs while I was in middle school and have been petsitting ever since. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet and I will do everything I can to ease your mind while you are away. I am extremely communicative and can send as many photos and videos as you like! Some of my favorite past clients have been a retired racing greyhound, a Rhodesian ridgeback, and a 19 year old schnauzer who lived on a diet of Erewhon Korean BBQ. I am comfortable caring for senior animals and administering medication. Can’t wait to meet you and your fur kids soon! I’m a full-time gig worker and taking care of animals is one of my favorite things to do! There is nothing I love more than a night in with plenty of playtime and snuggles. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you are looking for last-minute care, too- I will do my absolute best to make things work! I unfortunately cannot board dogs at this time, as I live in an apartment complex that has a pet fee. Hoping to change this soon!
“Without hesitation an amazing experience with Dana! She was available same day and accommodated my last minute request! My baby girl Zini enjoyed her walk! 🐶”
About: I’ve grown up and taken care of dogs my entire childhood. I grew up with a pure breed pitbull and taken care of Labs, German Shepard, and mixed breeds. I also live with two cats. I love animals and they all love me! I usually have time during the days or afternoons and evenings available outside of work to be able to pet sit or take them on walks or potty breaks. You go in a vacation, I got your pet taken cared of. I always make it work and I’ll always be there. I always make sure they are well loved and well feed and taken cared of. I make sure they always have time to use the bathroom. I know pets love quality time so just being with them and making sure they are loved means everything to them. I’m all about pet cuddles.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, when I was 14 I started taking care of litters of rescue puppies, and have been known as a dog whisperer ever since! I’m home from college for the summer and I’m available most days during the day. I love walking outside and always love to be around animals. I always make sure any animal trusts me when I first meet them. Establishing comfortably and trust with an animal is super important to me.
About: Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a house full of them — my mom showed Collies competitively and still rescues to this day. It’s just how I was raised. As an adult I’ve spent the last 10 years fostering — taking in puppies two or three at a time, and occasionally single dogs recovering from injuries or medical conditions requiring recovery care and medication management. That experience taught me how to read dogs, stay calm under pressure, and give every animal exactly what they need — not a one-size-fits-all approach. A stay at my place feels like a home away from home. Your dog will follow me around the house, get plenty of cuddles and indoor playtime, enrichment toys, and two walks a day through our Studio City neighborhood. We have a fenced yard for in-and-out access throughout the day, and for more adventurous pups I’m happy to hit Fryman Canyon or Griffith Park. My own dog is a six year old rescue who’s current on all vaccines. He’s selective with other dogs, which honestly makes me even more thoughtful about introductions — I know how to read body language, introduce dogs properly, and keep them separated when needed. I can also crate or accommodate whatever sleeping arrangement works best for your dog, keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I’m comfortable with all breeds and sizes. Special experience with: ✔️ Puppies & young dogs ✔️ Anxious or reactive dogs ✔️ Medical needs & medication administration ✔️ Post-injury recovery care What every stay includes: 🐾. Fresh water always available 🐾 Healthy treats 🐾 Respect for your dog’s routine so they have something familiar to count on 🐾 Regular photo and video updates I require a meet & greet before all bookings — in person or via video — to make sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Your dog deserves that. I work from home and I’m around most of the time, so your dog gets real attention throughout the day — not just a quick check-in between other commitments. I also have two daughters, 17 and 20, who grew up with dogs, helped with our fosters, and are just as enthusiastic about caring for your pup as I am. Pet care is built into our daily routine, not squeezed around it! My Studio City home is calm and quiet with a fenced yard and easy access to outdoor space. Having fostering experience with medical and recovery dogs, I’m comfortable managing special routines, medication schedules, and proper dog introductions — and I’ll keep you informed every step of the way. All dogs must be current on vaccinations.

“Nicole and Michael are so fun and they took great care of my Tyson for a little over 2 weeks while we went off to get married and have our honeymoon! I asked for a lot of pictures and she sent me really great candid photos of Tyson playing/hanging out at the park with the other dogs which we really looked forward to. When Tyson’s food was near empty Nicole was so kind to offer to pick up a new bag of food for him, and of course we paid her back! The cutest part was that when I picked up Tyson, he actually cried as Nicole and Michael drove away. I could tell he really felt at home with them and their dogs. I’m going away on another 4 day trip in a few days and we’ve already set up with Nicole and Michael again. Tyson is going to be thrilled to see his second pack again! Overall, Nicole is quick to respond via message, very professional, and so kind! Worth every penny! Thanks guys!”
“It was the second time I left my baby with Kristina and her lovely family. By the time we got there, Joey was super happy and excited and I could tell he had a great time with them before. Kristina is super professional and kind and I highly highly recommend her. She is the best. Thank you 🙏♥️”
“First time using rover and I don’t really know how my dog would react with other sitter. I was pretty amazed how my dog got along pretty quickly with James. Definitely would recommend James for any pet sitting. He keeps you updated with everything throughout the whole day. For sure I’ll be coming back again here with James. Thanks James!”
About: Hi! I am a dog mom myself, so my husband and I will work together to take great care of your pooch! I have a Golden Retriever, Toby. He’s high energy and loves to play so sometimes comes in hot with others. Please let me know if there have been any issues with that with your dog. I had a little one for 14 years so comfortable with all sizes of dogs- I love them all. My schedule is pretty flexible and I will definitely try to accommodate your timing needs. I am home most of the day Tues-Fri. My husband is home on weekends and can be WFH flexible on Mondays for dog care as needed. Our golden, Toby, always gets a walk in the morning and plays throughout the day. Access to the fenced backyard is available all day. I have a fenced front and back yard. Dogs have access to the backyard all day when we’re home, and will be encouraged to go potty before we leave to go anywhere. No unsupervised front yard time, but if we’re doing stuff, they can hang out. We can crate other dogs, but Toby does not get crated, so happy to cover the crate to reduce fomo!
“Angie was fantastic! She sent so many pictures and updates throughout Churro’s stay which she knew was so important to us. We felt very comfortable leaving our boy in her care. She was super thorough and detail-oriented at the meet & greet which we really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Angie!!!”
“Alejandro did a great job with my dog this weekend. We had booked a last minute trip to universal studios and Alejandro was available, even on short notice. He was kind, sent great pictures throughout the day, appeared to have a nice yard, and took great care of my dog. Thank you!!”
“My fur babies Max and Lucy loved Sandi right off the bat when they first met which is rare because it does take my dogs a few meets to like people. I was nervous to leave them as this was the first time I had ever used Rover but it was a great experience. Sandi was very accommodating to us since we were traveling from a far and our arrival time kept getting delayed. She was quick with her responses and communication was clear throughout. She sent me pictures to ensure me of their well being and texted me updates. Sandi also was very welcoming to us and flexible to our needs. Sandi is a "Gem" and I would like to keep her a secret so she doesn't get over booked in the event we needed in the future but I don't want to be selfish because she's AWESOME and treat your fur kids as if they were hers!..”
“Michael and Jessica are fantastic! I love that they wanted to make sure that my Lotti was friendly with their dogs before even booking. It made me feel safe leaving her there with them. They were very accommodating and I'll definitely be using them again soon!”
“Thank you for taking care of our love bug and for being flexible! We received loads of photos of our Mochi being happy and spoiled. Pick up and drop off was easy, and communication was a breeze. Our flight was delayed so we had to extend our boarding by a bit and Stephen was gracious and accepted our request. Thank you so much again!”
“Peter took care of my dog Sophie for 9 days while I was out of the country. Prior to booking, Peter accommodated my request for a meet and greet. Getting to know him and his dogs helped me feel at ease with boarding Sophie for an extensive time, especially since I was so far away. During boarding, he updated me with pictures of my dog daily. There were a few other dogs that he was taking care of, in addition to his own, which made perfect play companions for my high energy dog. He has a sizeable fenced-in back yard for the dogs to run around. Peter genuinely cares about dogs and is noticeably conscientious in making the daycare/boarding experience optimal for every dog he takes care of. He was even kind enough to let my dog lounge in his favorite chair during her stay haha. Thanks again, Peter!”
“Rita is the best sitter ever! She’s incredibly informative and attentive. Anytime something seemed off or questionable with my dog, she was on it immediately. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands.”
“Jared and Brandi handled our high energy anxiety boy with ease. He was happy and well taken care of during his stay. They posted pics every day. Super fun to see him interact with their toddler. Will definitely book again if they’re available”
“Radka and her family watched over my fur babies, and were amazing sitters! They were very caring and took good care of both my pups. I would go back to her again if I need a dogsitter for my pups 😊”
“Renata takes such great care of our dog and tends to her special needs while we are away. I have always felt so comfortable leaving our dog-child with Renata when we go on trips. She sends lots of great photos and updates and provides such helpful feedback. Thank you again, Renata!”
About: I grew up raising animals (big and small) in Texas and when I moved to LA for work, I started to take care of animals for friends and colleagues. If I can give a pet owner peace of mind their fur baby will be taken care of, plus have the joy and being with that animal, that’s a win-win I work from home as a freelance creative and have plenty of time and energy to care for animals. I love them so much, it really doesn’t feel like a job. It’s wonderful to care for them and help pet owners have peace of mind their fur babies are in good hands Every pet reacts differently to new people, and every home has their own routines and preferences. I’ve always found if you show respect to an animal and what they’re used to, you’ll bond with them and make them feel safe. I’m very used to every client having different needs, there’s no “one size fits all” approach. I live in the first floor of an apartment with a community yard and I have a patio with grass for quick potty breaks. I enjoy Long walks in my Valley Village neighborhood which is very safe, and I love walking dogs multiple times a day if needed
About: My love for dogs began when I was 12 years old, when my parents got me my first German Shepherd at my request. She lived a long and happy life — just like the two German Shepherds I raised on my own as an adult. All three were registered with a dog club. We attended dog shows and professional training classes together. I provided them with the best nutrition, vitamins, and long daily walks. Over the years I have developed a deep understanding of dogs — I can read their body language and know when they are thirsty, want to play, are in pain, or simply need comfort. Dogs are not just pets to me. They are loyal, wise companions and a true part of my life. My whole life has been connected to German Shepherds. I understand dogs on a level that is hard to put into words: their moods, their needs, their silent language. I am currently living abroad and unable to have a dog of my own — so caring for yours is a true joy for me, not just a job. I know what it feels like to leave your beloved pet — there were times in my life when I had to travel for work and leave my dog with a stranger. I always worried. I also understand what the dog feels: confusion, waiting, and longing in a stranger’s home. I live in a private house with a spacious fenced yard with trees and plenty of shade — so even on a hot day your dog will be comfortable outdoors in the fresh air. There is also a green area nearby, perfect for walks and exercise. Your dog will be safe, loved, and happy — and you will receive regular photos and videos as proof. They will be cared for like a member of the family. Come and meet me — I think you will feel at ease right away. I am available all day and will dedicate myself fully to caring for your dog. Morning and evening walks, playtime in the yard, and resting in the shade of the trees — all of this will be part of your pet’s daily routine. I live in a private house with a fully fenced yard — your dog will be completely safe. The yard has trees and plenty of shade, so even on hot days your pet will be comfortable outdoors in the fresh air. There is a green area nearby for walks. There are no other animals or children in the house — it is a calm and quiet environment. Your dog will have my full attention and care.
“Stacey is an absolute sweetheart & sent me photos every single morning/afternoon. My pup has a super sensitive tummy & she followed the feeding instructions to a T! I’m so grateful she was able to take care of my pup with such short notice! Will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much again Stacey (:”
