“Sierra was wonderful with Archie! She was very communicative throughout his stay and sent plenty of pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. You could genuinely tell she cared about him and treated him with so much love and attention. We felt completely comfortable knowing Archie was in such good hands and would absolutely book with her again!”
“Rene was utterly wonderful and most attentive to details with my 2, 11 pound little girl dogs. Rene seemed to focus in on how each dog navigated the new environment. My little darlings were given proper attention, hugs, loving moments and safe surroundings. Rene clearly understood the eating regime was very different from the ultra foodie and my picky princess. Rene is highly recommended by me and my family.”
“Had a great experience with Lissa. She was so great with Mac and was really good about providing updates to me. Mac was with Lissa and her family for a week and he seemed to really enjoy himself. She even was able to brush his teeth for me which was a huge help! She followed instructions precisely and was able to really engage with my dog in positive ways which included a lot of fetch and walks. Mac had some marking incidents and Lissa was very understand and kind about it. Mac and I are really looking forward to using Lissa again because it was absolutely fantastic. Thank you Lissa!”
“This is the second time i’ve used Vicky for pet boarding and she was just as responsive, communicative, and flexible as the first time. My pet enjoyed her stay and came back very happy. I’ll definitely be using Vicky in the future!”
“Rosario and Ryan were fantastic pet sitters who were incredibly accommodating with our schedule. They kept us updated with pictures and always checked in to ensure Teddy was well taken care of.”
“brittany took excellent care of our two dogs! she was very thoughtful in her messages and was really responsive. we greatly appreciated all the photos and the attentive care she took for each dog’s needs. will definitely be using brittany again!”
“Lucero was a great sitter! Our dog was so happy when we picked him up. Communication was great and she was so flexible with pickup time. Will definitely book Lucero again!”
“Brittany is a fantastic host. I left my buddy with her while visiting family in the east coast and made him feel at home. Brittany is excellent at communication, genuinely friendly, and cares deeply for those who come over. I highly recommend!”
“I truly can’t say enough good things about my experience with Jennifer. She took such incredible care of Pip and treated her like her own. From the start, she was warm, attentive, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful about Pip’s specific needs. She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Dina watched Sawyer for a night and was very responsive. She sent lots of pictures, including some sweet ones of her kid playing with him. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Alicia and James took amazing care of our dog! They were very flexible when we had to extend our stay, and were super communicative with updates and photos. We can’t wait to use their services again!”
“Natalia is amazing! My dog Maki has stayed with her twice and she is my go to now. She sends so many updates and pays so much attention to details and instructions. I would highly recommend her to anyone”
“Anna is great. We had to go out of town for a few days and couldn't take our senior pup- Anna truly came through for us and took amazing care of him. We will definitely connect with her in the future for doggo needs!”
“Our dog Clementine had an amazing time staying with Carmen and her dog Cathy for six nights. Carmen’s genuine love and attentiveness toward dogs really stood out—she cared for Clementine as if she were her own. I truly appreciated the daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Clementine was happy and well cared for. Carmen even went the extra mile by introducing her to fun puzzles and healthy treats. It was clear Clementine felt right at home, and I’m sure she’d be more than happy to stay with Carmen again.”
“We just returned from vacation. Thank you, Angela, very much for taking such good care of our dog! Usually we leave him with family members but this time our kids had a time conflict, so we had to find a sitter for a few days on a very short notice. Greatly appreciate your stepping in, Rumata seemed happy and we are so glad! Thanks again”
“I can't say enough great things about Ellie! She cared for a recent rescue when I had to go out of town for a few days. She made my girl feel right at home and sent regular pics and videos which made me feel confident about her care from start to finish. When she found a couple of fleas on my put during her stay, she was so calm and helpful working with me from afar to take care of it. When my flight was delayed coming home, she even agreed to care for my pup until I could get back to town. Will definitely rebook with Ellie again!”
“Amira was so sweet and Maple had a great day with her! She was super thorough in making sure she had all of Maple’s details to make her most comfortable. Will definitely reach out to Amira again!”
“Julie Anne set the bar. Jasmine is our 6-year-old Morkie, three months post-surgery, and we left for a weekend trip with zero worries. Julie Ann followed every note and sent the best updates we’ve ever had—playful check-ins in Jasmine’s voice plus tons of photos and videos. She was kind, friendly, and on top of every detail. We even came home to squeaky-clean paws (a first—my wife was thrilled!). Thank you, Julie Anne!! Highly recommend.”
“Alla took great care of our sweet girl! We appreciated the pics letting us know she was comfortable and settling in. We will definitely use her again if a need arises.”

About: As a cat mom myself and a volunteer at a no-kill cat shelter for 3 years, I know how unique and complex cats are compared to other animals. I genuinely love spending time with cats, whether that's playing with their favorite toys, giving them attention on their own terms, or simply keeping them company and making them feel safe and comfortable. I have also had experience house sitting with cats in the past, so I understand the various responsibilities that come with cat/house sitting. I am a very caring, attentive, and patient person who pays close attention to each cat's needs. I also have experience with nail trimming, and I'm comfortable handling "dirty work" like cleaning litter boxes. I believe communication is extremely important, so I always make sure to keep owners updated, and I'm never afraid to reach out with questions, updates, or anything that helps ensure their cat is happy and well cared for. I treat every cat as if they were my own, with lots of love and responsibility.
“Christian took amazing care of my cat DMX and my frogs over the long weekend, and I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. He was always on time, very attentive, and made sure everyone was comfortable, fed, and well cared for. It was obvious that he genuinely cared about my pets and paid close attention to their routines and needs. DMX absolutely loved him, which is not something I say lightly, and it gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. He also kept me updated and was very dependable throughout the entire stay. I came home to happy, relaxed pets and everything in perfect shape. I would absolutely trust Christian again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter. Definitely a 5-star experience!”
“Taylor was really thorough! I loved how easy it was for Luca and Mimi to be around her. Everything was left nicely, and all the instructions were completed. I really appreciate how comfortable she made my kitties feel 🥰”
“Tania was so great! She was incredibly accommodating and flexible when I had to change my drop in schedule multiple times. And she was extremely patient in allowing my pet to warm up to her. Thank you!”
“Mellissa was THE BEST! Such a gift to have a sitter so attentive, communicative, and proactive, giving my kitty the best possible care! My cat can get melancholy when I'm away but Mellissa made sure she got tons of playtime and cuddles that kept her so happy. She also went out of her way to mitigate an ant infestation that popped up while I was gone which I am SO grateful for. And her many thoughtful photos and videos gave me so much peace of mind. Truly couldn't be happier and excited to book again!”
“Mariana is amazing. She went above and beyond to help my cats, one who had just had surgery. I felt like they were in the best care possible. She gave the most detailed updates and sent so many pictures which made me feel so confident that the kitties were okay. Plus she genuinely gave them so much loving.”
“Egle was so great with our cat Zelda! From her updates I could definitely tell our kitty was well taken care of and that they were bonding great. I will definitely book again”
“Elizabeth was the best! She genuinely cared for our kitties, playing and treating them as if her own. Our very shy and usual scaredy cat immediately felt comfortable and looked forward to her visits. We couldn’t recommend Elizabeth more and look forward to working with her in the future.”
“Thank you so much to Nicola. She took amazing care of my sweet cat! She boarded him for three weeks so if you are looking for long or short term care, look no further! She was always in communication and gave me regular updates and pictures. She even gifted us some cat food after finding that he was trying to steal it from her cat. Very thoughtful especially since sometimes it can be very tricky to find something your cat will eat! Nicola spent a lot of time with him and have him a lot of attention, which I very much appreciate as it can be sad to leave your pet for so long! She was also flexible with pick up and drop off, and her home is beautiful and both comfortable and fun for a cat to explore. You can tell that she is a pet lover through and through, and I was really happy knowing my cat was safe and so well cared for! Thank you so much!”
“Anastasiia was amazing. So conscientious and loving with our animals. She was extremely patient with our dog who gets separation anxiety. We can’t recommend her enough!!”
“Wendy was a great sitter! Loved the amount of communication, the pictures at the check ins, and of course her interactions with my kitties. Everything was very easy and I would trust her to cat sit again”
“Sai is super reliable and caring with our cats. We've used him multiple times and will continue to every time we go out of town. He always takes care with the cats and sends us the best photos of them!”
“Aolani is a total rockstar and cat whisper! My cat, Sammy, is typically shy with new people but he warmed up to Aolani after just a couple of visits. Love that he got lots of love while we’re were away. 10/10 would book again!”
“Alexandra was FANTASTIC. She was able to keep our cat on track with his meds twice a day and kept us posted with pics and notes from every visit. We will definitely reach out to her next time we need a sitter or check-ins.”
“We've worked with Caysee twice already, and she has consistently been an amazing petsitter to our two cats! She is communicative and responsible, and I would strongly reccomend her without reservation!”
About: I've cared for all kinds of animals and have experience with puppies, senior pets, and pets with special needs. I'm comfortable giving medications and following any specific care routines your pet requires. I know every animal is different, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether we're going for walks, playing, or just keeping each other company, I'll care for your pet like they're part of my own family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away, knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, and I'm happy to work with your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable while you're away. Whether it's daily walks or drop in visits, I'm committed to being reliable and responsive. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my own home, I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog, and I make sure the environment is clean, secure, and free of potential hazards. I closely supervise pets, follow any instructions you provide, and stick to their normal routine as much as possible. I'm also happy to crate pets if requested, administer medications, and provide regular updates with photos so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

Perfect for high energy dogs - Westwood
Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Jenna is AMAZING! We immediately felt comfortable leaving our little girl with her and she did not disappoint. Jenna truly loves dogs and will treat yours just like her own. She sends many photo updates and communication throughout the day so we always know how our pup is doing. Regina (our dog) now looks forward to her days with Jenna and Meadow (Jenna’s dog). We look forward to using her services for the forseeable future!”
“We were very satisfied with Keevon’s work taking care of our baby Happy. Our pup was very excited going to his daycare where he could hangout with his doggie friend Q-Pid. Keevon kept us updated with photos and text messages of Happy’s stay. We definitely recommend Keevon’s service.”
“Huge thanks to Caroline for making Brownie’s very first day care experience such a positive one! She even picked Brownie up and dropped him off at my location and was flexible when I had to change our time. Thank you Caroline!”
“Absolutely incredible dog sitter, she loves dogs! My pup had the best time today and was loved —I received many pictures and highlights from their day!! I would refer her as an excellent choice for all in the area!!”
““Abby was an awesome care giver for my boy. She and her precious pup had never met him before, but not only welcomed him to their home, they became best of friends. Abby sent daily photos of images and videos of play, love and family as I was on the other side of the world, missing my pup dearly. She followed all of my directives to the letter and tucked him to sleep at night and woke him up - in his own home. Abby’s a real pro.” - Tom”
“Jazmin was a lifesaver by taking a last minute reservation for my dog Molly. She was responsive and communicative with drop off and pick up and it seems like Molly had a good time”
“Alejandro was awesome with my pup! Super friendly, communicative, and took great care of her while I was away. She came back happy and relaxed, which says it all. Definitely recommend him!””
“Diah was great with Arby. She took several pictures throughout the day so that I was well aware of how Arby was doing. Arby is usually shy with other friends but looked like she enjoyed her time!! Thank you and see you again soon!”
About: I have rescued 3 Frenchies over the years, and fostered numerous others starting in 2008. I've fostered multiple Roadogs and Slaughterhouse Survivors (our second Frenchie rescue was a meat trade rescue who came from SHS) and currently foster for It Starts with One. I currently have one very mellow, very dog friendly, female, adult spayed Frenchie now named Reagan - who I recently adopted from the Labelle Foundation. Reagan is happy to play a little with other dogs, but she could take it or leave it. She does not resource guard and she's never shown any aggression toward the other dogs we've fostered and cared for. We also have a foster currently from Starts with One Today named Luna. She's a French Bulldog found on Skid Row and she's a gentle giant with a similar disposition to Reagan. I am a stay at home parent and I'm home for the majority of the day. I have a single story, single family home with a fully gated backyard with a 6' fence - we also have a small/medium sized doggie door (with optional ramp for the 2 steps (raised foundation) for seniors) which is available all day (we'll teach them how to use it). Please bring a harness for your dog. You are welcome to send their bed from home if you think that is a comfort item, but I don't need you to bring anything besides their food and a harness. I have experienced with: - Senior Dogs - Giving Medications (syringe, hiding in food, pushing) - Syringe Feeding - Post Surgical Care - Senior Care - Basic Potty Training Reinforcement - Palliative/Hospice Care We Have: - Dog Bed - Food and Water Bowls - 36" x 36" gated enclosure [if needed] - Crates [medium travel or large wire, if needed] and crate liners In my house: my husband and two teenagers. They give extra love but won't be responsible for any actual pet care. Note: the nightly rate is based on 24 hours. I do not prorate if you pick up early. The rate is per each night ie 8am to 8am. Or 4pm to 4pm. You can schedule your pick up or drop offs for anytime between 7am and 8pm. It's rare that I'm not home during the day - when that happens, it's usually for a very short period of time (like dropping kids at school). I'm kinda a homebody. I close the dog door around 9/10pm and reopen it at 7am. It stays open as long as I'm home, so pretty much all day 7am-10pm. I care for pets in my home only at this time. I do not offer pet sitting in your home. I have a single family home with a fully gated backyard and doggy door. Safety: Please be sure to convey any triggers or behaviors - I can probably handle most - but to ensure everyone is safe its important to know before you book. When your dog arrives at my home, I will place an airtag on your dog's collar with geofences set up, as well as a dog tag with my information, just to be extra safe. I feed dogs separately just to be extra sure there are no food squables. Our dog is not a resource guarder, but why risk it? I crate boarded and foster dogs when I am not home (which is rare) to ensure safety - once I'm comfortable that a dog is doing fine with our dog, we can stop (or feel free to request me to continue if you feel better about that).
About: Pet care, ensuring well-being, happiness, and health. Skilled in walking, feeding, and providing love to furry friends. Trustworthy and passionate animal enthusiast for any dogs. Regular walks, feeding, and playtime ensure pets' happiness while balancing my commitments effectively. As I am working part time, I have more flexibility to fit pets' need. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize their comfort and routine. I follow feeding schedules, ensure fresh water, and engage in playtime. For overnight stays, I provide a secure and cozy environment. In my own home, I create a pet-friendly space with regular walks, play, and attention.
“Allison was a great sitter! She is quality at its finest and highest. So communicative and clear, so understanding and accommodating. Scarlet was so sleepy and in great spirits when i picked her up. From the photos it is so evident how relaxed and calm the environment is. I recommend Allison’s services to the moon and beyond— look no further and send that message. Can’t wait to book again. Thank you with all of me!!”
About: It's a joy to be in the company of doggos, and I take pride in making their day better. I have 7 years of experience with dogs big and small, and have experience with walks, boarding, sitting, administering medications and changing doggie diapers. I make sure to provide treats, grooming, play time and to make the menu varied, fresh and new. I notice any notes from owners about how to best approach their dogs triggers or how to administer medicines in a familiar way. I make sure that pets are feeling happy and will make sure to give cats a little space, if they do not like visitors that much. I'm pretty good at reading a pet's vibe.
About: Grew up with dogs. Will love your dog like my own! Happy to abide any routine you usually have for your pup! Great neighborhood for walks. Available for dog sitting overnight for short or long trips. I work from home 5 days a week, Monday through Friday and am generally around most weekends to care for and keep your furry friend company. Potty trained/well behaved dogs preferred. Hypoallergenic breeds only, unless it is for a short stay. Send me a message and we can work something out. Leaving your dog behind when you travel is tough. Feel free to text me.

I work from home 5 days a week and am always looking for an excuse to get up from my desk especially to get outside! I will spend as much time at home while I am with your dog and will abide by your routine for if they go in a crate or limited space vs free reign when away for a short time.
“Laura was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make both my dog and I feel comfortable with the stay. She even made the cutest report card graphic to send me after I picked Frankie up. 10/10 recommend her! You can tell she really cares about pets and understands how nervous you can be leaving them in someone else’s care.”
“Thank you so much Roxy for taking such good care of our baby boy. We appreciated the pictures a lot, as we were nervous since it was his first time away from us. Thank you for taking such good care of him! ?”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over four years and love every minute of it! Whether it’s training playful puppies, looking after senior dogs, or just giving them lots of love and attention, I always make sure they feel happy and comfortable. Pet care fits perfectly into my flexible schedule! I have availability on both weekdays and weekends, so I can give your pets the attention and care they need whenever you need me. In my cozy apartment, I create a safe and pet-friendly space alongside my small Yorkie. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, supervised, and in a clean environment—whether they’re staying with me or I’m caring for them in your home!
“Holly was very kind, accommodating, and communicative. She was clearly excited to watch my dog from the moment we dropped her off and commented on her cute she was. She sent regular pictures and updates and was very understanding of my puppy’s high energy levels. My dog and hers got along very well and we will definitely book with Holly again if we need a sitter. 10/10”
“Jane was great as always. Our pup had extra energy before we dropped him off and she got him the exercise he needed. We always feel confident he’ll be well cared for when we leave him with Jane.”

About: I’ve been dog/cat sitting since I was a teenager, and my family has owned miniature schnauzers my whole life! I love all pets though and it’s my goal to make sure they’re having a great time, all the time! I am currently a grad student at UCLA, I have a very flexible course and TA schedule that ensures I can make sure your pet is taken care of, fed and walked in the mornings and nights; I also am able to provide all pets with time to get energy out and stay happy in afternoons + weekends are wide open for me! I have a spacious westwood apartment that has an open wood laminate living room with room for a crate or to share on my queen bed with animals depending on your preference. I live in a neighborhood with many a hydrant and grass patch for your pet to walk on and enjoy and I’m a 3 minute walk to Westwood Park.
“Needed a last minute booking. Nicole is very dependable, communicative, and great with my dog. Were right on time, and my dog was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Alexandra was great!!! Lucy loved her and we were so happy to be able to have her walk Lucy while we were out - she communicated with us quickly to keep us posted and gave us such relief to know that Lucy was well taken care of - highly recommended!”
“Hi Carolina, Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Ulises! He was in great hands, and the walks helped him burn off so much energy, which definitely made life easier for us. We’d be happy to have you walk him again anytime! Uli also sends a big thank you. We really appreciated how responsible you were and how you kept us updated throughout the day—it gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was doing well. We’re so grateful we could count on you these past few days. You were such a huge help, and we truly appreciate everything you did for Ulises. Thank you again! ❤️”
About: Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their pets whether they're away for 1 day or several months. They also come to me for pet advice whether it's about a toy for enrichment, a bed for comfort, or a concern over a new behavior. In another life I probably would have kept true to my childhood dream of being a vet to help as many animals as possible. Recently I wrote down a personal goal to spend more time with animals because of the joy I get from seeing them happy and thriving. I grew up with cats in the house and gladly helped friends and family with dogs since I could walk. I've learned how to administer various medications, have taken care of pets of all ages, and am patient with nervous or anxious pets. My current schedule is flexible, so I can work with you in creating a care plan that fits your needs and gives your pet the attention they deserve. Communication is key to a good experience and establishing trust. I like to provide periodic updates so you don't have to worry while you're away.
About: I grew up taking care of pets! My childhood dog Olivier was an unusual mix; he was an eye-catching, mutant-sized Dachshund who got a lot of attention walking down the street, and we had a couple of independent-minded kitties. My family still has multiple dogs and cats. I absolutely adore dogs and feel strongly about tuning in to who they are - if they want to play, it's on! If it's a shy guy or gal, I respect their space if and until they feel more comfortable. I facilitate healing workshops and I'm an artist with a variable schedule that I keep up-to-date on my Rover calendar. I'm currently living in a building that doesn't allow dogs and I love cats but am super allergic. So daily pet care for me is making friends with and greeting my doggy neighbors. When I've had pets or boarded them previously with Rover, I always make sure to find out the basics of their personality from you, their favorite human. They deserve the same consideration we give people! Currently only offering walks, not boarding.
About: I’ve been pet sitting since I was 15 years old :) I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, smaller rodents, and some amphibians as well! I am good with both young and old pets, and have had to administer medication for animals as well including shots - there is very little that phases me. In general - I am very patient and loving with animals and will take the time to make them feel as loved and cared for as possible. I’m currently working part time as a barista and am an artist/musician in town as well - so I create my own schedule and want to fill my spare time with pet sitting! I cannot have pets in my home currently, but if I am taking care of pets in other people’s houses, I am extremely clean and respectful of others’ spaces. For overnight stays, you can count on me to leave the house cleaner than how you left it 🩵
“Sai was so great at taking care of my sweet, old dog! He fed her and gave her water and treats as I asked, and gave her tons of attention and great walks! Also, he took a ton of photos and provided great detail on each walk! I would absolutely recommend Sai.”
About: I majored in animal science and was almost a vet! I always volunteer to watch my friends and familys pets! I have trained german shepherds and labs! I am available for walks during the week and most weekends! I just sometimes have to work out of town every other weekend but I’m very flexible! I have a fenced patio a front lawn. Brentwood is a great neighborhood to walk that is also only 3 miles away from the beach!
About: Hello! My name is Jenna, I am a 28 year old mother of 2 cats. I currently work as a bartender but have 2 years of experience working at a dog grooming salon, 3 years of experience walking dogs through another app, and 15+ years of experience sitting for cats! If you need someone to walk or sit your pets, (cats, dogs, or others- I love them all), I am happy to speak with you about availability and any concerns you may have for your pets. I am available most Mondays-Thursdays all day as well as some weekends depending on my schedule at the bar. Please feel free to reach out and we can go from there! I work as a bartender typically from Fridays-Sundays with a few exceptions, meaning I am usually available all day Mondays-Thursdays. Depending on what time I am scheduled at the bar I am available for drop ins on the weekends as well! As I have 2 cats of my own that don’t get along with other animals, I will only be working from clients’ homes and will cater to any instructions or needs you have!
About: I’ve been around animals for most of my life. I grew up with a family dog and was involved in his daily care and training, including potty training, basic commands, and helping him manage separation anxiety. That experience taught me a lot about being patient, consistent, and attentive to a dog’s individual needs and behavior. I currently have four cats of my own and previously cared for a rabbit for four years. I’m very comfortable with the everyday responsibilities of pet care, including feeding, cleaning, playtime, and keeping up with each pet’s individual routine. I also successfully litter-trained my rabbit. I’ve also cared for dogs for friends, including a Border Collie, German Shepherd, and Pit Bull, so I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve helped with basic training as well, including potty training and crate training. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s usual routine and any specific instructions you provide. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I’m currently a PhD student, which gives me a very flexible schedule, and I do most of my work from home. This allows me to spend plenty of time with pets throughout the day and easily fit walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and feeding into my routine. During the summer, I don’t have teaching responsibilities, so my availability is especially flexible. During the academic year, I’m generally flexible most days of the week, with Thursdays and Fridays being my busier days. I’m happy to work with you to find a schedule that fits your pet’s usual routine. I provide care in my clients’ homes, where I do my best to keep each pet’s routine as familiar and consistent as possible. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, medications, and any other specific needs your pet may have. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I always adjust my care to what makes them most comfortable. Whether your pet loves attention and playtime or prefers a little more space, I’ll respect their boundaries and make sure they feel safe and cared for in their own environment. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and doing well.
About: I have nine-plus years of cat-sitting experience and am comfortable working with different types of feline personalities and ages. I also used to watch my neighbor’s small and medium sized dogs, take them for walks, and feed them. I am able to administer oral medication as well as provide insulin injections for diabetic cats. I am very responsible and know that animal care is crucial; I treat pets with the same amount of respect as people. I have been caring for friends’, neighbors’, and family’s pets for years. I have hands-on experience maintaining a clean and healthy environment for cats, including regular care such as cleaning litter boxes. I would love to provide care for your furry friends! I am a full time online grad student, giving me flexibility in my schedule to care for your cats and small dogs. I have a vehicle as well, making it easy to care for your pets. I care for pets by providing enriching play, ensuring their food and water needs are met, providing medication if needed, and sending photos and videos to their lovely humans.

“I truly can’t say enough good things about my experience with Jennifer. She took such incredible care of Pip and treated her like her own. From the start, she was warm, attentive, incredibly accommodating and thoughtful about Pip’s specific needs. She was also so communicative, sending updates and photos throughout the weekend that made me feel completely at ease. It’s never easy leaving your dog, but Jennifer made the entire experience seamless and stress free. Pip was so comfortable and happy, which means everything to me! I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter and can’t wait to book with her again!”
“Dina watched Sawyer for a night and was very responsive. She sent lots of pictures, including some sweet ones of her kid playing with him. I’d definitely book with her again.”
“Anna is great. We had to go out of town for a few days and couldn't take our senior pup- Anna truly came through for us and took amazing care of him. We will definitely connect with her in the future for doggo needs!”
“We just returned from vacation. Thank you, Angela, very much for taking such good care of our dog! Usually we leave him with family members but this time our kids had a time conflict, so we had to find a sitter for a few days on a very short notice. Greatly appreciate your stepping in, Rumata seemed happy and we are so glad! Thanks again”
“Amira was so sweet and Maple had a great day with her! She was super thorough in making sure she had all of Maple’s details to make her most comfortable. Will definitely reach out to Amira again!”
“Jamie was incredibly attentive, communicative, and caring with my boy! She sent pictures and kept me updated throughout the day. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!”
“my shy only child got a chance to spend some time around other dogs and cats while i was away. Barbara said they brought her around everywhere they went and tried buying her wet food and treats since she wasn't eating her kibble (but she just doesn't really eat in unfamiliar settings). pretty responsive!”
“It’s been a while since I’ve booked a sitter through Rover due to a negative past experience so I was hesitant doing it again. However, I was in a bind & had to do a last minute booking. And I am so glad to have booked with Brendan. Moose stayed with him for 5 days and came back super tired from the adventures with Brendan. We received daily photos & videos of their trips to the park and beach. Moose is a little reactive to other dogs & it felt like he came back from Brendan’s a little calmer. He gave me tips on how I can help with Moose’s reactive behavior towards other dogs. Brendan is a life saver & we’re definitely going to rebook with him again.”
“Liz and Austyn have been wonderful with my 15-year-old dog on the two stays that he's had with them. He has a history of occasional seizures and had one while staying with them. They took great care of him and kept me updated. Definitely recommend!”
“John was great, would definitely recommend him if you’re looking for someone to take care of your pups while you’re out of town! He was quick to respond, flexible with his schedule and provided daily updates and photos which were appreciated!”
“Amazing! Our dog is a little stress ball and doesn’t do well with new situations and other dogs. Kyle was patient, understanding and worked with her to make sure her stay was comfortable. He also stayed in touch with daily updates. Would definitely recommend!”
“Randy was so great with Kona! We received lots of updates and pictures during her stay. It was great having the peace of mind kona was in good hands while we were away:)”
“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.”
“Jonathan was amazing! I am super nervous about leaving my dog with anyone. But I felt super comfortable and reassured after meeting Jonathan and Poppy. He is very attentive and knowledgeable. I was updated daily and could see how comfortable and safe my dog felt. Could not recommend a sitter enough!”
