“Nadège was amazing! Her home was a lovely spot to leave our Minnie for a couple days. Nadège was so welcoming and kind and we could not have asked for a better person to watch Minnie. If you want a sitter who will allow your dog to roam and get comfortable, who will give them lots of love and attention, and who will keep you updated with photos and kind words about your dog, then book Nadège! She is the best and we will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”
“Our girl had a WONDERFUL time at Amorn and Adam’s home! This was the most at peace I’ve felt while leaving my dog with a sitter. Their communication was amazing and the photos & videos said it all. She was so happy!”
“Ashton and Jay are amazing!! It was my first time using Rover and it was a great experience. They sent me photo updates throughout Truffles stay and were very communicative. I will definitely be booking with them again!”
“Chan Woo is very timely, responsive and caring. I truly believe my dog was well taken care of and loved during the stay. He sent me lots of pictures and kept me updated the whole time. I felt completely comfortable leaving my little one with him and I would absolutely book with him again.”
“Sean was amazing with Theo while we were away for the week. He’s so caring, sent lots of great photos, and even brought him swimming (Theo’s favorite!) and bathed him after! Thank you for caring for our little guy - he can be difficult the first time somewhere new and you were incredible. 🙌🏼”
“Hershey had a wonderful time staying with Nayira and her family! We were updated daily with her well being and all the pics showed all smiles. Would reach out again for future sitting needs as I am happy with the care, communication, and enrichment our Hershey received during our time away.”
“Had a great experience with Andre and Trish watching Obi! Got plenty of updates and videos. She was a very happy girl when we picked her up. We’ll be sure to contact them again for future dog sitting.”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“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!”
“Nicole is beyond incredible. She is so loving with Ollie and I felt so, so comfortable leaving him with her for a week! He was taken such great care of and I'm so grateful! Thanks again!!”
“So happy to find Marcelo , friendly great and communication. We received pictures every day we were gone. So happy with them for taking care of our two dogs.”
“Absolutely Wonderful Dog Sitter! I cannot say enough good things about our experience. My senior dog was in the best hands for 5 days, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. She provided exceptional care, patience, and attention to all his needs from his medication schedule to his feeding schedule . She sent regular updates and pictures, which meant the world to me, and I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and truly cared for. When I picked him up, he looked relaxed and happy, exactly what every dog parent hopes for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐶💛”
“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.”
“Alina was so wonderful. Our regular dogsitter had to cancel on us last minute. Alina came to the rescue and watched our dog for a 4 night stay. We were nervous to leave our senior dog (who has some special needs) with a brand new person. Usually we book an initial one-night stay with a sitter before doing anything more than 24 hours. It turns out we had nothing to be worried about. Alina checked in with us regularly and had very accurate descriptions of how our dog Bedu was settling in. By the end of her stay Bedu was in love. We brought home a very happy pup who was so well looked after, I can happily say she also had a little vacation herself. Alina’s residence is right next door to Petco, which was very convenient for us as we had forgotten to pack some supplies and stopped there on the way.”
“Jessica took really great care of our young border collie. It was our first time boarding him, and she gave us constant updates to help put our minds at ease. We will definitely be asking for her again in the future”
“What's not to like! A kind and caring lady that takes her time to understand the animals she cares for, a tidy and cozy home, an adorable little dog named Luccie and a gorgeous loving cat. Stacey was great at sending us daily updates and pictures of our little dog Toby. Most importantly, she was accommodating when we had an overnight layover due to a delayed flight abroad and we needed Toby to stay with Stacey an extra night. Overall, we're very happy and our Toby was in great spirits when we picked him up. We have no hesitation rebooking Stacey in the future.”
“Hasmik was great. I had never left my baby with anyone. She took such good care of him that he didn't even miss his mom and dad. He is our first (human or otherwise) so we were very nervous. She sent lots of photos and put my mind at ease. She will be my go to sitter.😊”
“Renata was absolutely amazing with our little pup! She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos. Biggie looked like he was having the time of his life and came back happy and chill. Would absolutely hire Renata again and I plan to! ❤️”

About: My first experience with cats was discovering 6 kittens under my home when I was 7! Since then I have been fortunate enough to always be around to care for kittens and cats who need homes. I currently have 2 female cats both foster fails. I have cat sat for numerous friends and family members who have pets with diverse personalities. I have experience with very timid cats, and very social talkative ones. I am comfortable being around cats with all types of behaviors and am not intimidated by the fur babies who just need a bit more time and patience to get comfortable!

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and reliable pet sitter. We will absolutely be booking again!”

“Jessica is an amazing pet sitter! She’s super responsive, is caring and affectionate towards pets, and will make sure to leave detailed information for each fur baby during every visit. Will definitely be using her again and I highly recommend her!”
“Katherine is the absolute best! She’s my go-to person to take care of my cat when I’m gone. She leaves the most wonderful check-in notes and takes the cutest pictures too, which makes me feel so secure even if I’m far away. And my cat loves her which is most important!”
About: I have 7 cats of my own and have grown up around cats my entire life. I’ve cared for cats through every stage of life, from newborn kittens to senior cats. Because of that experience, I’m comfortable handling a variety of personalities and needs, including cats with anxiety, shy or traumatized cats, and cats who need extra patience to feel safe and comfortable. I also have experience caring for pregnant cats and helping monitor their well-being. What sets me apart is that I truly understand cat behavior and know that every cat is different. I take the time to earn their trust and make sure they feel secure, loved, and cared for while you’re away. 🐱❤️
“Vanesa is amazing!! My cat Penny warmed up to her so fast. She was great with communicating with me everyday with pictures and videos to make sure my cat was safe the entire time. Extremely friendly and even left us a cat treat at the end of the drop ins. Would 1000% recommend Vanesa to anyone looking for care.”

“Tiffany was wonderful! We left our cat with her for 3 weeks and she took great care of him. This is the first time we've had to leave him for this long, but she made it easy for us to feel more comfortable about the experience. She and our cat got along really well, she was super responsive, and she sent us tons of photos and videos. She was also really attentive to him and his likes and dislikes -- when she noticed that he was interested in some boiled chicken that she was feeding to her dogs, she made sure to ask us if that was something he typically liked and was allowed to eat. Additionally, she was very accommodating of his habits. She bought him a cat cave in case he wanted to hide away (he loved it), and when he decided that his favorite place to be in her apartment was right on top of her pillow, she rolled with it which was very sweet. All in all, she was a great cat sitter, and we'd definitely recommend her to others in need of someone to take care of their cat!”

“Chan was so organized, calm, empathetic, and caring. He was direct and communicative and kept me updated throughout the day. I cannot sing high enough praises, I felt like my dog was in capable and caring hands”
About: Hi I’m a full time pet sitter. I have been petsitting for the past 8years. I have a lot of time to take the doggies out for walks multiple times a day. I also interact with them, by playing or doing basic commands with them. They are always allowed hop on the couch and join me to cuddle while watching a movie. It’s a cage free environment, unless you are training your baby or prefer for your pup to be in a cage certain times. They will feel right at home, in a comfort place where they are allowed to roam around freely and cuddle up on the couch or the human bed at night. We also reward them with extra belly rubs and delicious treats! I am a full time pet sitter. During the day I do have multiple walks I go out to. My partner Maggie is also home full time to care for the pups while I’m away. Dogs in my home have to be friendly with humans and other dogs. I am only taking small- medium size dogs. Unless I’ve cared for a more relax friendly bigger dog that I know won’t need much space.
“We had such a great experience with our dog sitter! They did an amazing job taking care of Archie and kept me updated throughout the entire day. They sent me lots of pictures, which really helped me feel comfortable and reassured while I was away. It was clear that Archie was well taken care of and in good hands. I truly appreciate how attentive and caring they were. I would definitely recommend them and would book with them again! 🐶❤️”
About: I’ve had multiple pets my entire life, I currently have a 10 year old terrier mix her name is Horchata like the drink lol. My goal is to give your pets the same kind of dependable, loving care I would want for my own, while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I’m currently home from college only working like 2 days out of the week so I have plenty of spare time to take care of any furry friends. I’m available most weekdays with a super flexible schedule. I care for pets by making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, medications, and bedtime routines. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also super respectful of each client’s home and always clean up after the pets and leave everything neat and organized.
“Cassie is a great sitter and wonderful person! She is so friendly, knowledgeable and amazing to work with. Definitely recommend. First time, and we’ll be back for sure!! Our 60lb Golden Retriever had a blast at her place!”
“Last minute request taken care. Had a urgent day care request, which Renata was kind enough to take our Q in. She had a good time there as usual. Thank you Renata!!!”
“Natasha took such great care of my pup and sent a ton of videos/photos during the day. She was very communicative leading up to the stay and throughout the visit. I will definitely be using her again to look after my dog!”
“Michelle & her family are so sweet & kind!! YoYo always has a great time running wild & free (lol). Super thanks for always taking wonderful care of my little one. 💜”
About: Since I was a child, I cared for many animals and pets on my family's farm, and in the last 15 years in LA, I've had my own pets and all my neighbors and friends come to me for pet care while they are out of town! I work as a part-time plant science consultant, I am a mom of a 10-year old human and an 11-year old doggy, I have a flexible schedule and love to be active, so pet care fits in nicely! I have a secure and fenced in back yard and many comfortable spaces for dogs all around the house. Cats are not a good fit in our home, unfortunately.

About: If you're on this app, clearly you love your pet. You want to assure your pet is properly cared for and loved while you are not around. I have over 20 years of caring for my dogs and spend my free time volunteering at the West LA Animal Shelter. I have trained friends dogs and have tended to my 18 year old elderly dog since she was a puppy. I pitched on my baseball team and love to air out my arm with long games of fetch at the park as well as leisurely strolls around the neighborhood. I'm full time work from home - my routine is multiple daily walks with my 2 dogs. Park nearby is an oasis as well as sun drenched backyard lounging. Fenced yard where my two friendly dogs like to hang out, but they have the run of the house as where they like to sit in the front window and watch the street activity.
“We had a great experience with Sarah. Easy and flexible pick up and drop off, and she had a great space for Ansel. Ansel could relax and nap much of the day after stressful travel the previous day. We recommend Sarah.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs most of my life with my family. I have experience with fostering puppies too. Currently I have one fur baby.

“Soraya was amazing with our puppy, Noche. She took great care of him, kept him safe, and made us feel comfortable while we were away. She was kind, reliable, and treated him like he was her own. We really appreciated the updates and the care she gave our little guy. We would absolutely book with Soraya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter. Thank you so much for taking such great care of Noche!”

“My dog can be very stubborn and is quick to decide whether or not he likes you, but surprisingly Mason was a very happy dog with Jamie, he was well behaved and it seems like they had a blast! I highly recommend if your dog has trust issues, or is a nervous one to book with Jamie. I would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve always been the person friends and family trust to watch their pets because I genuinely love spending time with animals. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pet with someone else, so I do my best to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s a puppy with lots of energy, a senior pet who needs a slower pace and extra care, or a pet that’s a little shy at first, I’m patient and happy to adjust to their needs. I pay attention to the little things, follow routines closely, and love sending updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re hanging out with a friend, not just being watched I’m currently on summer break from my job as an elementary after-school teacher, so I have a more flexible schedule and extra time to dedicate to pet care. During the summer, I work a part-time job, which allows me to provide care before and after my shifts. I’m able to plan my schedule around pets’ needs and make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m also available on weekends for extra visits, overnight care, or just some extra love and attention if needed. 🐾❤️ When caring for pets in your home, I try to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’ll make sure they’re fed on schedule, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, and get plenty of love and attention. I know every cat is different—some want constant cuddles and playtime, while others prefer their space—so I always let them set the pace. I’ll also send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your cat is happy and well cared for
About: I have experience walking dogs of all ages and sizes (German Shepard, huskies, Maltese, poodle, frenchies). As a teen I walked dogs for the elderly who resided in a retirement home. I grew up with large dogs and have learned patience and awareness through my experiences. I currently have two talkative cats and have participated in rescuing stray kittens from a Carl’s Jr. parking lot. I love animals and have learned from each and every one of them that I have had the pleasure of meeting in my lifetime. I am currently between jobs and have a lot of free time to take pups for walks! I am available weekends and holidays! I enjoy being outside and going for early morning walks and would love to do that with a dog! I am comfortable watching pets within a home or backyard if needed. I can carry dogs if they are uncomfortable using stairs or if they have special needs. I am extremely cautious when dogs are a flight risk and tend to triple check harnesses and walking gear!
“Vanesa has been absolutely wonderful with our yellow lab! She’s kind, attentive to his needs, and always makes sure he gets the care and attention he deserves. She’s consistently on time, communicates clearly, and always lets us know how each walk went. It’s such a relief knowing our dog is in great hands - we couldn’t recommend her more highly!”
About: I've loved and taken care of animals for as long as I can remember. Dogs, cats, rabbits, even a pet squirrel (lots of stories about Honey). Spending time with animals brings me such joy and I treat every pet with love and care as if they were my own. I currently have one dog at home (my sweet boy in my pics) that we've had 10 years and we had our precious girl for 8 before she passed last year. I also had my childhood dog for 15 years with an adorable underbite that made him look a lot tougher than he was. :) I'm comfortable taking care of senior and sick animals as well as giving medication. I took care of our sweet girl with cancer last year with oral meds, tube feeding, and IVs. Our other dog gets allergy shots that I administer at home and I've taken care of him through 2 back surgeries. I've used Rover many times over the years and found wonderful sitters for us when we needed them. Now I'm joining this side of it so I can return the favor and share some love and joy with your fluffy ones. I was working full time and unfortunately my industry has been dealing with consistent massive layoffs. Now I'm a stay at home mom, but have lots of flexibility since my husband works from home. When going to your place, I will be careful while opening the door to ensure no escape artists try to get out. I will treat your space with respect and make sure to leave things just as I found them. Most importantly, I will make sure to adhere to any instructions given for the visit.
“Marie is reliable, caring, and great with my dog. Always on time and sends updates with photos. I feel totally at ease knowing my dog is in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I have lived with dogs all my life and have worked professionally with them for three years. As a previously doggie daycare camp counselor, I oversaw dogs of all breeds and sizes. I love playing with them, walking them, and showing them love and comfort while they are away from family. Back home, I have a husky-border collie mix, a cockapoo, and a chihuahua-doberman mix… so from work and home, I’ve truly experienced dogs of different personalities, sizes, and needs. I have lived in LA for threes years now and just graduated from USC. I’m currently a working actor and barista which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable care for your pet. Dogs are truly special little companions and I’m here to help give them that care when life gets busy! PLUS, while I’m excited to help make your life a little easier, spending time with dogs is just as much a gift for me. I miss my dogs back home in Chicago, so being able to care for dogs here has been such a fun way to keep them in my life. I hope to adopt one of my own when the time is right! Can’t wait to get you know you and your furry friend :) I work as a barista, so my schedule is fairly flexible and I’m able to work pet care into my routine. I’m happy to discuss your pet’s needs and find a schedule that works best for both of us. I provide pet care in my client’s home and take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and energy level. Before starting, I’ll discuss their usual walks, feeding schedule, and any special needs with you. I’ll keep you updated throughout my time with your pet and am happy to send photos and messages so you know they’re safe and happy.

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with dogs all my life, up to 5 dogs. I’ve never had an empty household. Dog hair is a part of my life lol. I’ll be make sure to give your pet plenty of scratchies & pets if they allow it! I love snuggles with pets and giving them my undivided attention :) I’m currently working part-time, I am an artist as well. I moved away from home without my pets, so I would love provide for pets! I have plenty of time to care for your pets. I currently am looking to move into an apartment, so at the moment I don’t have space to care for a pet overnight, but I can travel.
“Jaime was absolutely awesome with Boosh, our Pit/Lab baby girl. He was able to pick her up and down the stairs to our complex. We had dog family over for a week and Jamie was able to accommodate walking them on short notice. Boosh loved seeing him and would bring him her ball a few times; seriously jelly about that. ?”
“Minerva is the most caring and loving dog walker! She takes her time walking Kobe and sends plenty of pictures and updates about his activities (pee, poo, etc.). She's very detailed, quick to respond, communicative, and incredibly friendly. You can tell she's an animal lover. Kobe has fallen in love with her in such a short time! Can't thank Minerva enough for everything she does for our Kobe!”
About: Growing up in a house full of dogs, I guess I picked up a few tricks along the way. My friends joke that I’m the “dog whisperer,” but honestly, it’s more like I’m their unpaid therapist. Most dogs and I vibe right away, like we’ve got some unspoken connection. Even the cautious ones usually come around pretty quickly.. maybe it’s the good vibes..? Maybe it’s the good treats..? Either way, mi casa, their casa. 🏠🐶 Now that I’m pursuing music full time, my schedule is much more flexible! I work from home during the week and usually keep my weekends open, so I can be fully attentive and available for your pup whenever they need me. 🫡 I prioritize being present with your pets at all times to ensure their safety and provide them with a home-like sense of security, knowing they have a trusted friend by their side. 🐾 🤝
“Jessica did an amazing job. It was a last minute effort to get someone to cover Mars, due to a funeral. Jessica made it so easy with all of our requests. We are so grateful!”
About: You can count on me for: * Safe, enjoyable walks * Plenty of affection and positive attention * Fresh water and potty breaks * Photo and video updates during every visit * Reliable communication and punctual service I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, but I especially have experience with small breeds like Chihuahuas. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your furry family member is in caring and trustworthy hands. I look forward to meeting you and your best friend! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have experience caring for my own dogs, so walks, feeding, playtime, and giving lots of attention are already part of my everyday life. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure each pet gets the care, patience, and companionship they need. I also keep my schedule organized so I can be reliable, punctual, and responsive to pet owners. Your dog’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s routine, energy level, and any special instructions before every walk. During our walks, I’ll keep your dog safely leashed, avoid unsafe situations, and make sure they have fresh water afterward if requested. I’ll also send photo updates and communicate with you so you can feel confident knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands. Every dog deserves patience, kindness, and a walk that’s both safe and enjoyable.
About: I’m a dependable and attentive pet sitter who enjoys spending time with animals. I also have my own dog, Lilly, so caring for a pet is already part of my everyday life. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take the time to make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, basic medication instructions, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’ll also keep you updated so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in good . My schedule is flexible, and I make time throughout the week for walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I’m used to caring for my own dog, Lilly, so pet care is already a normal part of my routine. I always follow the pet owner’s instructions and routines closely. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep pets supervised, and pay attention to their behavior and comfort. I want every pet to feel safe and relaxed while they’re in my care.
“Bryanna has been great with our dog Buster and takes lots of pictures and even videos during her visits. She is good at communicating and responds to messages quickly. She's dependable and shows up when she says she will and we are really happy to have found her. She brings her dog to play with Buster and it's been a great arrangement for Buster to have a friend and more socialization. She was willing to just come herself to take Buster on his walk if they didn't get along. We hope Bryanna continues to be available to visit Buster.”

“Hershey had a wonderful time staying with Nayira and her family! We were updated daily with her well being and all the pics showed all smiles. Would reach out again for future sitting needs as I am happy with the care, communication, and enrichment our Hershey received during our time away.”
“Annabelle and Ben are incredibly kind and professional. I had them watch my dog, Dante, for five days while I went out of town. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a safe, fun, and loving environment for their dog. They welcomed Dante, who is not used to being away from the family, into their home and treated him as if he was their own. They even allowed Dante to sleep in their bedroom and relax on their living room couch. Annabelle and Ben have a large fenced-in yard where Dante was free to hang out and play with their very sweet pup Ranger. Dante also enjoyed fetching softballs from their kids and taking walks around their neighborhood. Annabelle and Ben were incredibly professional throughout the whole process. Annabelle invited me over for a meet and greet before booking and sent pictures daily while I was away. I could tell from the photos that Dante was very well taken care of. Dante came home calm and happy which is a true testament to the expert care that Annabelle and Ben provided. I will definitely use them again. In fact, I will be bringing Dante back in a few weeks!”
“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!”
“Nicole is beyond incredible. She is so loving with Ollie and I felt so, so comfortable leaving him with her for a week! He was taken such great care of and I'm so grateful! Thanks again!!”
“Absolutely Wonderful Dog Sitter! I cannot say enough good things about our experience. My senior dog was in the best hands for 5 days, and I felt completely at ease the entire time. She provided exceptional care, patience, and attention to all his needs from his medication schedule to his feeding schedule . She sent regular updates and pictures, which meant the world to me, and I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and truly cared for. When I picked him up, he looked relaxed and happy, exactly what every dog parent hopes for. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals, look no further. I would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐶💛”
“Alina was so wonderful. Our regular dogsitter had to cancel on us last minute. Alina came to the rescue and watched our dog for a 4 night stay. We were nervous to leave our senior dog (who has some special needs) with a brand new person. Usually we book an initial one-night stay with a sitter before doing anything more than 24 hours. It turns out we had nothing to be worried about. Alina checked in with us regularly and had very accurate descriptions of how our dog Bedu was settling in. By the end of her stay Bedu was in love. We brought home a very happy pup who was so well looked after, I can happily say she also had a little vacation herself. Alina’s residence is right next door to Petco, which was very convenient for us as we had forgotten to pack some supplies and stopped there on the way.”
“Jessica took really great care of our young border collie. It was our first time boarding him, and she gave us constant updates to help put our minds at ease. We will definitely be asking for her again in the future”
“What's not to like! A kind and caring lady that takes her time to understand the animals she cares for, a tidy and cozy home, an adorable little dog named Luccie and a gorgeous loving cat. Stacey was great at sending us daily updates and pictures of our little dog Toby. Most importantly, she was accommodating when we had an overnight layover due to a delayed flight abroad and we needed Toby to stay with Stacey an extra night. Overall, we're very happy and our Toby was in great spirits when we picked him up. We have no hesitation rebooking Stacey in the future.”
“Hasmik was great. I had never left my baby with anyone. She took such good care of him that he didn't even miss his mom and dad. He is our first (human or otherwise) so we were very nervous. She sent lots of photos and put my mind at ease. She will be my go to sitter.😊”
“Renata was absolutely amazing with our little pup! She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos. Biggie looked like he was having the time of his life and came back happy and chill. Would absolutely hire Renata again and I plan to! ❤️”
“This was rockets third time staying with Erin and her communication continued to be excellent. This allowed us to relax while on vacation knowing our pup was well cared for while receiving daily photos and updates. Rocket did experience some anxious behavior and Erin was able to relay this and provide him the support he needed. It was out of normal for him but we felt confident that Erin would take care of our baby. We have and would recommend booking with Erin.”
“She was very responsive and flexible around my pick up and drop off times. Provided photos and videos of their walks every day and Chase looked happy in each one! Chase is a 100 pound German Shepherd and she handled him very well. Very thankful I was able to find her relatively last minute for my stay and have everything work out!”
“Alexandra and her family were lovely! They provided photos daily and kept us up-to-date on our pups activities. We appreciated their care and attention to detail. We would gladly book again!!!”
About: One delightful benefit of being single and living alone is I’ve ended up being the person in my friends group who gets to dog sit for all my friends whenever they go out of town. I studied Ecology at University and the love and respect of all animals is very much ingrained in me. I work from home, so to have a justified incentive to leave my desk and go for a walk would be gratefully appreciated. I live in the foothills of Sherman Oaks which makes for easy, safe walks in a very dog friendly neighborhood. I’m also more than happy to hop in the car and take dogs to the park. I’m completely flexible to the desires and recommendations of the owner. I care for dogs as if they were my own. Lots of interaction, affection, a continual supply of fresh water and hopefully a buddy to watch the Premier League with me on the weekend!
“Lenny Z is the best! He watched our 11 year old Corgi for 5 days and he took wonderful care of her! He was totally professional and very easy to communicate with. Also, his backyard is the perfect oasis for the dogs to hang out in and Scarlet clearly loved it there. Scarlet also has special needs with not being able to walk well and they were so attentive and made sure she could get around safely and enjoy her time there. Scarlet came back in great shape, and we would definitely book with Lenny again. Lenny also sends really good photos! They are some of the best photos we have of Scarlet:).”
“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!..”
“Our older dog loved his time with Aimee and her partner! They sent updates and photos and set our minds at ease. I appreciated that she had our dogs meet first; she really cared that our pup felt comfortable with their sweet dog and the space before we left. Aimee and E are lovely people and excellent pet sitters. We will book again. Thank you for loving our Dexter!”
