“Christy and her family were so great and welcoming to our pup. He was loved, well cared for, and so happy when we picked him up that we knew he was in the perfect place. We feel lucky to have found Christy’s home and have no doubt we will use her again.”
“Yiyu was extremely accommodating with our last minute booking. She was extremely communicative with sending updates and pictures. We felt PeeWee was in GREAT hands which allowed us to have a worry and stress free time away. We will definitely be booking with Yiyu again! Thank you for taking care of our baby!”
“Bella enjoyed her time with Kyle and Boogie so much that when I went to pick her up, she did not want to leave. She was even sad for a couple days after. He did a great job with Bella and her special needs.”
“Vanessa always takes amazing care of Apollo! This is his second stay with her and he was so happy to see her when he arrived. I got cute updates of him everyday playing with all his new friends he made there at her place. I will definitely book again and 100% recommend Vanessa!”
“My 2 y.o. pup Wallace had a blast with Jenny over the weekend! She sent lots of pics and even gave a sweet treat goodie bag when I came to pick him up. 10/10 recommend!”
“Kimberlee is amazing! She took such great care of our pup and sent daily check-ins and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We have a very high energy Aussie, and somehow she managed to tire her out, which is no easy feat! It was clear our dog was happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kimberlee again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“I felt very comfortable, leaving our little dog with Angelica. The moment we met, I could tell she has compassion and nurturing ways. . Throughout the day, I received photos and saw that our Max was happy and content. I’m so glad I found a person who will love and care for our dog when we need help.”
“Angela is an amazing at caring for our skittish doggie, and she is even flexible enough to accommodate drop ins for our kitties! Can't rave enough about how good she is. She takes time to get our fur babies acclimated to things, is very patient, provides daily updates and even a "Pawgress Report" for us when the booking is complete! Simply awesome! 😃”
“Andrew and Jess are awesome as they simply care and treat your pets as their own! From the planning and meeting in advance prior to the dog care period, they made sure we connected to collaborate on the care and consistency of how and what to care. They put the dogs' needs as a priority from wake of day to when the dogs hit the bed. I would request of their services again!”
About: With over 30 years of caring for both dogs and cats, I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and know how to make pets feel safe, calm, loved, and comfortable, especially when their owners are away or at work. I offer more than basic pet sitting; I create a nurturing environment where pets receive personalized attention, affection, exercise, and emotional support. My background in healthy lifestyle coaching also helps me stay attentive, active, organized, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I am particularly patient with senior pets, shy animals, and pets that need extra reassurance or consistency in their routines. It fits into my schedule because I can spend time with them at the beach, the dog park, walking around town, or just hopping in the car to visit a larger dog park. Life is good when time isn't an issue. My home is fenced and offers plenty of space for outdoor play. Plus, we spend most of our time outside. I cook homemade food for my fur baby and always take a nap after a long walk. You can feel reassured knowing your fur babies will have someone present, attentive, experienced, and caring while they are away.
“Shane took amazing care of Riley! He looked so happy in every picture / video during his stay :) I couldn’t be happier about how well Riley was taken care of while I was away. Highly recommend!”

“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“Outstanding pet care and loving family. Perfect outdoor/ indoor environment plus many walks a day. Great communication with owners and gave our dogs lots of snuggles”
“We are so grateful to have found Jeanne to care for our dog, Luglio. From the very beginning, she was warm, responsive, and clearly experienced with dogs. She made us feel completely at ease while we were away, sending regular updates and the sweetest photos that showed just how happy and relaxed Luglio was in her care. Jeanne went above and beyond to make sure Luglio felt at home, giving him plenty of love, walks, and attention. It was obvious she treated him like one of her own. He came back to us happy, calm, and well cared for—exactly what every dog parent hopes for. We’ll absolutely be booking with Jeanne again. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving dog sitter!”
“So grateful for Emily and Maple! Emily was great about sending me updates and info on Cookie while I was away. She handled all of my dogs medical info great. My baby is blind and deaf so I really appreciate the updates and love she received. Cookie and Maple got along well and became buds!”
“Michelle and her family were a 10/10. Miso had the best time with her and her kids and she was very well taken care of. She was also so good about sending so many photo and video updates and I appreciate her treating my girl like one of her own.”

“Jordan did an amazing job doing 10 drop-in visits across 4 days for my dog Gus. Jordan came super prepared at the meet and greet visit and asked a lot of questions to understand Gus’ routine. My dog is part lab/cattle dog and has a bunch of quirks, and she made sure he was well taken care of. Jordan also did a great job when I booked her for a first time walk before my trip so Gus could get familiar with her. Providing picture updates on the walk. She provided great updates in each Rover card. Including photos, videos, and notes from each visit to share how Gus was doing. She even came back to check on him on 4th of July to ensure he was ok during fireworks. It’s my first time using Rover and Gus was in great hands. She made my trip worry-free. Would definitely book her again!”

About: For over six years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels—whether it’s one loyal companion or a lively crew. I treat every pup with care, making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Reliable, patient, and always ready for a walk (or many pets)! For fish - I’ve had a tank through my whole life (freshwater) and recently have had saltwater, taking a close eye on their needs and tank maintenance. 🐾🐠🐟 I currently work full-time on weekdays, but I’m available for morning and evening check-ins during the week. My weekends are fully open, so I’m happy to help however I can then! While I care for a saltwater tank full of marine life at home, I always make sure to dedicate plenty of focused time to meet—and go beyond—the needs of your furry companions. Every pet deserves attention, affection, and a little extra love while you’re away, and that’s exactly what I provide.
“Gabriella was great with my kitten Millie! She was professional, followed all instructions, and took extra time to make sure Millie got plenty of love and attention while I was away at work. Highly recommend and will rebook!”
“Yiyu was extremely accommodating with our last minute booking. She was extremely communicative with sending updates and pictures. We felt PeeWee was in GREAT hands which allowed us to have a worry and stress free time away. We will definitely be booking with Yiyu again! Thank you for taking care of our baby!”
“Raelynne was so great with our cat. He’s usually really shy around strangers, but he seemed to really take to her which is great. Everything was handled exactly as we outlined.”
“Sydney was awesome with our 7-month-old kitten for twice daily hour-long visits while we were away for a few days! We had a nice meet and greet before booking and felt very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. She is very communicative and easy to connect with, she shared great updates with every visit and lots of great pictures and videos of our cat playing ☺️ We’d highly recommend her for catsitting!!!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life — from age 7 to 27 my family had three amazing pups, and for the last 10 years I’ve raised my Shih Tzu, Mowgli. We lived together in Los Angeles, moved to London for two years, and have just moved back. He’s truly my heart, and caring for dogs has been part of my everyday life for decades. I’m naturally calm, patient, and incredibly attentive, which helps dogs feel safe, grounded, and relaxed — especially in new or unfamiliar environments. I’m confident with small breeds, senior pups, and dogs who need consistency or specific routines. I understand how important structure, gentleness, and affection are to their wellbeing, and I bring that same care to every dog I look after. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because I’m someone who prioritizes structure, presence, and calm energy in my day-to-day life. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I fully adapt to their pet’s existing schedule — feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific routines they’re used to. I believe the best care comes from consistency, so I make sure their day flows as closely as possible to how it does when their owner is home. Since I don’t host pets in my own home, I’m fully dedicated to being present in the client’s space. I maintain a clean, peaceful environment, follow all house guidelines, and give each pup the attention and companionship they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles, structure, or quiet time, I match their energy and make sure they feel supported, loved, and well cared for throughout my stay.
“Becky was great with my kitten Millie! She was professional, followed all instructions, and took extra time to make sure Millie got plenty of love and attention while I was away at work. Highly recommend and will rebook!”
About: Hello! I’ve been pet sitting for many years after we lost our family pug. I grew up with both dogs and cats. I have volunteered at shelters and fostered dogs in the past. I'm very active and like to walk, run and hike. I have experience with senior pets with medication needs from our own pets and the fosters. I’ll spoil and love on your fur babies as much as I can. In my free time I play vollryball, practice yoga and paddle board. I’m working remote so would be at your house during most of the day. I usually go to yoga or play volleyball during the day. I will take great care of your animals in your home. Please provide detailed instructions on their needs to make them feel comfortable while you are away.
“Eva went above and beyond with taking care of Murph while away — checked in thoroughly and took many pictures to make me miss her less. Couldn’t ask for more with her as a sitter!”
About: I have a balanced approach to cat care that combines careful attention to your instructions with an understanding that every cat has its own personality and routine. I don’t try to change your cat’s habits or become a replacement pet parent. Instead, I provide dependable care, maintain consistency, and engage with each cat in ways that match their comfort level, whether that’s interactive play, quiet companionship, or simply respecting their independence. I’m attentive to behavior changes, maintain clean litter boxes and feeding areas, and prioritize a calm, low-stress environment while you’re away. I am not a fit for cats with the following behaviors: Velcro or high physical touch/contact/proximity Display aggressive behaviors such as hissing, scratching, lunging, and biting Demand constant attention, food, play throughout the day Struggle with being alone for periods of time I do best with cats who are comfortable with a sitter providing attentive care while also respecting their independence and individual routine.
About: Giving your pets so much love, while leaving your home better than when you left. Grew up on a farm in Canada with many animals, while also having pets over the years since. In addition to providing reliable and loving care for your pet(s) and home, I also offer Animal Reiki sessions and gentle energetic space clearing—helping your pet feel calmer and your home feel refreshed and balanced while you’re away. I’ve been house and pet sitting for friends for awhile now and have led a digital nomad life around the world in 45 countries and counting since 2010. Thought I’d give this platform a try as I’m in transition and planning to settle down in California permanently while checking out more areas to see what’s a long term fit. I love animals, playing beach volleyball, and run my own digital marketing agency of 15 years that has always been remote-first so have a very flexible schedule that I create. Looking forward to caring for your home and pets! I grew up on a farm in northern Canada and it sustained our family so I have a lot of experience with pets and many animals, from our own dogs and cats, to rabbits, cattle, pigs and chickens. I’ve lived in many cities around the world since and also had additional pets throughout life and have often been asked to care for friend's and family’s pets and homes over the years. I absolutely love it because I move around a lot and do not have my own at the moment.

“Shane was awesome. Super pumped to see Rosie everyday and Rosie nearly yanked my arm off running to see him in the morning. I really feel like he treated our dog like his own. He sent updates and photos frequently. I felt very comfortable leaving her each day. He was flexible and helpful at drop off and pick up. We will hope to call on him again when needed.”
“First time with Kyle; I have a very anxious Chihuahua mix & Kyle was very patient with her and gave her her own space until she became comfortable. I can tell he has plenty of experience dealing with this type of situation. Communication was easy and efficient with Kyle the entire time that I was at my function. I did check it quite often. Kyle was very responsive which I really appreciated because I was a little bit nervous seeing that my poor baby is very anxious.. We will see you again! Thank you.”

About: Available for pet care in Port St. Lucie through August 27. I have an established Rover profile with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and would love to care for your pet while I’m in the area. With over 15 years of experience, I provide dependable, personalized care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long beach walks, playful adventures, or quiet companionship, I adapt my care to what makes them feel happiest and most at ease. I intentionally care for one family at a time, allowing me to give every pet my full attention in a calm, low-stress environment. This means no crowded daycare atmosphere—just thoughtful, one-on-one care designed around your pet’s needs. I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, medications, special diets, and pets who simply need a little extra patience and reassurance. You’ll receive regular photo updates, clear communication, and the peace of mind that your pet is being cared for as if they were my own. My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved. I work with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide attentive care throughout the day rather than just quick visits. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, medication, exercise, companionship, or a consistent routine, I can tailor my schedule to their needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. For boarding, I welcome one dog (or one family of dogs) at a time so every guest receives personalized attention in a calm home environment. I carefully follow each pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleep preferences, and any special instructions. For house sitting, I strive to keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible in the comfort of their own home. I treat every home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own and keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your trip.
About: I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have grown up surrounded by pups of all sizes and personalities. Friends regularly trust me to care for their dogs while they’re away, and my experience fostering has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to each dog’s unique needs. Since I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Whether we’re out on a long walk, playing at a park, or relaxing with belly rubs, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and adored! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I primarily offer care on weekdays, but I’m also available on weekends with advance notice. Your pup will get lots of companionship and attentive care while you’re away. I live in a quiet apartment just a couple of blocks from the beach and a beautiful nature path, making it the perfect spot for walks and outdoor time. With no kids or other pets in the home, I can provide a calm, safe environment where your dog will get plenty of one-on-one attention and care.
About: I can't wait to meet your furry friend! Quality care is super important to me so the more I know about your family member (pet) the best I can be of support. If they are a day napper who enjoys peace and quiet or an active puppers who enjoys long walks I am here. I will have complete open availability for the month of August 2026 . There is potential for additional availability in the month of September 2026. I am just a mile away from the beach , walking trail and 10 minute walk from a park. There is availability for both pet care in my home or at the client home. There is also a 24 hour emergency vet clinic just a 2 min drive away if needed (I like to be prepared)
“Andrew was great with my Harlee girl! He provided lots of updates and took great care of her. And he was available to help out when someone else cancelled on me last minute. Would definitely book him again!”
“Lara is amazing!! She took our puppy for the afternoon and evening…and took such good care of her. She gave her a bath, clipped her nails, took her out to the parks and let her rest peacefully at home. She was such a great care taker and I loved getting pictures throughout the day of my happy puppy! Highly recommend 👍”
“Mindy helped us with our 6 month old puppy very very last minute and we are so appreciative. Remy had a great time and had lots of attention and fun at Mindy's house! Thank you!”
“Honey and I are looking forward to the next time she gets to play and hang with Renee and family. I loved getting photo and video updates and she genuinely seemed sad to leave at the end of her visit. I felt super comfortable and assured she would be taken care of when I dropped her off, as if I was dropping her off at a friends house for the day! Honey will definitely be a regular at Renee’s house :-)”
“Claudia & Nicholas took such wonderful care of my sweet boy. Nico has a seizure disorder, and although it doesn’t happen often, he did have a few episodes while he was with them. They handled it with so much calm, care, and compassion, which meant the world to me. They are incredibly trustworthy, and I would absolutely have them watch Nico again in the future.”
“Our pup Eevee loves her daycare with Angelica! She's happy to see her when we drop her off and always so tired afterwards. Angelica even gave her a bath and she smelled so good after, even gave her bows! Angelica takes good care of her and is thoughtful too, gave us little gifts and takes pictures throughout her stay. We're happy to find a sitter we and Eevee can feel comfortable with.”
About: Hi! I am Jackie, and I live close to Live Oak Park. I am home full time, and I am also one of the pet sitters who has undergone advanced screening that culminated in a face-to-face in-home meeting and a home inspection. My two Malteses, Abby and Oscar, and I are looking forward to meeting you and your best friend! Being retired, I have all the time in the world, plus all the love in the world, to direct at your dog. You couldn't have found a more loving, devoted sitter to watch your dog, whether for along-stay or short-stay. I pride myself in the care I put forth to my four-legged guests. Don't feel bad taking that trip you've always wanted to go on, leave your dog with me! I can watch all types of dogs; breed, size, only up to 30 pounds please, and age. I will be willing to watch bigger pals if they are polite and non-energetic. I'll even watch that puppy you just added to your pack. I am comfortable administering medication if your dog need such. Why I love dog sitting Dogs are my life! I have two furbabies but I have plenty of love to share with fur guests as well! I don't remember a time that I didn't have a connection with dogs. They are truly some of my best friends! About my yard My complex has plenty of room for me to walk your dog, and also have a small common area for your dog to run and play. My experience administering medication I have no problem giving your dog his medications as you tell me to. I am not, however, comfortable administering injections. I am retired and spend most of the time around the home. When am at home my main concern is making your fur babies content and happy. I live on a street that has many walking paths to venture out on. It depends strictly on the energy and stamina of your dogs. I'll do anything and try and make your dog happy.
“Sean was simply amazing ! He was very caring and attentive towards our dog’s needs annd schedule and is very responsive, sent some amazing pictures of Muffy - Muffy took to him immediately and had the most comfortable amazing stay at his home. Would highly recommend him. Thank you Sean!”
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old. Growing up, my family always had a dog in the house. Within the last 2 years I have been taking care of my parents 2 dogs and have absolutely loved spending time with them. I work from home so I am available all day to make sure the dog is not alone and gets taken on multiple walks along with lots of love and attention! I live in an apartment with a big living room for a dog to play in. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and is great to walk around.
About: Please read everything 🌻 I am currently home full time working remotely so I have open availability to keep watch over your pup or cat! A little about me - right now, I'm working as an Integrations Implementation Consultant for a HR tech company. The company services the government/public sectors in every state so I love my job as it requires me to help people digitally. :) This goes for you guys on Rover too where I'd love to help you out with your fur babies 💕 As a hobby, I like to take digital photography and be active outdoors as much as possible! I used to have doggos to take care of, but my current place doesn't allow pets at the moment. I've missed having a furry companion so much that I re-enabled this app to get more time with your pets so it's a win-win for the both of us. :) If you need a friend with full experience on loving dogs/cats, please message me and we can set something up. I'd love to receive this in return - a schedule of what time your dog/cat eats, general temperament, walk time, play time, allergies, diet, important numbers to call, etc. This would be perfect for those who need a friend to watch your fur baby when you're away. Feel free to message me for any questions or details you'd like to provide and I'd be happy to listen! Please keep in mind that I require 24 hours in advance for a meet and greet + home tour before we decide we're a good fit. Note: I am fully vaccinated/boosted for anyone who is curious and willing to wear a mask for initial meet & greets for our safety. :) I'm WFH so my schedule is flexible during the weekdays! I start work usually around 7-7:30 AM and end around 3:30-4 PM so I would be free to house sit, do drop-ins, and routine walking in between as long as we set it up in advance before I schedule work meetings. Typically, work is flexible enough for me to create a schedule around Rover so just let me know. I will always be respectful if I am sitting for a furbaby in someone's home. If there are any questions, I will always ask. Otherwise, your baby will be treated with the attention and play time that I gave to all my fur babies before!
About: I’ve been caring for friends’ and family’s pets for years, and it’s become one of my favorite things to do. I’m the person everyone calls when they need someone they truly trust and the biggest compliment I get is that their pets don’t want to go home when vacation ends! I’ve cared for all kinds of personalities, from energetic pups who love outdoor time to cozy cuddle-bugs who just want companionship and a soft place to snooze. I’m attentive, patient, and always prioritize keeping pets happy, relaxed, and loved while their families are away. I also live very close to LAX which is convenient if you need to drop your dog while you’re away. I also have a large fenced in backyard that dogs absolutely love. I work from home part-time, so caring for pets blends perfectly into my daily life. I love having furry company during the day and can give frequent attention — whether that's walks, play breaks, or extra cuddle sessions. Your pet won’t be left waiting; they’ll be part of my daily routine and treated like family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, pet-friendly environment with constant supervision and a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. I take care to follow your pet’s routine and needs closely, and I treat every animal with the same level of attention and respect as I do my own. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in a safe, caring, and trustworthy home.
“Sophia was so incredible with my Frankie! She sent so many updates (which are always my favorite), and you can tell she really made sure Frankie had a fun day. Frankie didn’t want to leave, she loved Sophia!”
About: Hi, I’m Liz! I’m a marketing writer based in Manhattan Beach, originally from the Midwest, and I’ve had dogs and cats around me my entire life! I don’t currently have pets of my own, which means I have plenty of love, attention, and couch space to give yours. I’m a very experienced dog godmother and genuinely love spending time with pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from beach-walk extroverts to cozy little couch potatoes. Because I work from home full-time, I’m especially available during the day for walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, and check-ins. We even live right next to Bruces Beach Park so we can run around and play! Your pet won’t just be “watched” they’ll get real attention, affection, and a calm, comfortable place to hang while you’re away. I’m also available for overnight boarding and would love to make your dog feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. Can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I work from home so I have fairly free availability most days of the week and your pet will have constant companionship! Please let me know for boarding requests :) I do not have pets so your pet will be the only one in my apartment, we are also young thirties with no children so the full focus will be on your pet!
“I cannot recommend Jinae enough! She took incredible care of Tucker while I was away—truly going above and beyond. I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that gave me complete peace of mind. Tucker clearly felt comfortable and loved, and forgot all about us. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring, Jinae is the one. Will absolutely book again!”

About: Hi! I will be moving to the Manhattan Beach area in September and can’t wait to explore the neighborhood! I have taken care of dogs for most of my life whether I am playing with my own puppy or pet sitting for friends and neighbors. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I am currently working full-time, however I work from home so I am flexible and can likely accommodate last minute schedules. Generally, I am available before 8:30am and after 5:30pm. I have a very high energy golden doodle at home. This means that walks are full of adventure and require high attention since he wants to say hello to every other dog and person in the neighborhood. Safety for your pets is incredibly important to me and I will treat your pets as I would my own!

“Shay is a pet pro! He walked my very large German Shepherd twice daily last weekend. Long walks at good pace for exercise. Easy up-front coordination by text, adapted to my requested times and exceptional communication. Highly recommend Shay as he immediately connected with my shy German Shepherd, providing great care with her exercise.”
“Devon was available to walk Charlie on short notice, and we are so grateful for the help! She asked good questions in advance, arrived right on time, and sent a few photos. We look forward to working with her again!”

Friends regularly trust me to care for their dogs while they’re away, and my experience fostering has taught me how to be patient, attentive, and adaptable to each dog’s unique needs. Since I work from home, your dog will get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Whether we’re out on a long walk, playing at a park, or relaxing with belly rubs, I’ll make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and adored! I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can provide plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I primarily offer care on weekdays, but I’m also available on weekends with advance notice. Your pup will get lots of companionship and attentive care while you’re away. I live in a quiet apartment just a couple of blocks from the beach and a beautiful nature path, making it the perfect spot for walks and outdoor time. With no kids or other pets in the home, I can provide a calm, safe environment where your dog will get plenty of one-on-one attention and care.

About: I have three years of experience dog-sitting and walking my sister’s terrier mix, so I’m comfortable with routines, walks, feeding, and giving pets the attention they need to feel secure. Outside of that, I’m an art history professor and PhD student, which means I’m very responsible, organized, and reliable. Years of teaching and working in museums have trained me to be attentive, patient, and detail-oriented, qualities I bring directly into pet care. I’m calm, consistent, and genuinely love spending time with both dogs and cats. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available all day on Mondays and Fridays, and most weekends. On Tuesdays, I’m available until 1 pm; on Wednesdays, after 2 pm; and on Thursdays, until 3 pm. I’m reliable, consistent, and able to maintain your pet’s routine. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routines. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific needs. I’m very respectful of your home, keep spaces clean, and prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being at all times.
“Brooke has been incredibly consistent/punctual. My pup is always excited when Brooke comes over and is always exhausted after her walks. I absolutely would recommend for anybody that needs help!”
“Lillian did a great job with my weird red headed pup balu! He can be skittish of strangers, esp folks who may not be confident around dogs- and after a meet and greet I was very excited for lillian to take the reigns with balu. He is excited to have her back on a regular basis!”
“Marevie was a great dog walker . I was busy with things around my house and Marevie came over and took my dog for a nice walk . She was on time and professional. I would recommend her to friends.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life — from age 7 to 27 my family had three amazing pups, and for the last 10 years I’ve raised my Shih Tzu, Mowgli. We lived together in Los Angeles, moved to London for two years, and have just moved back. He’s truly my heart, and caring for dogs has been part of my everyday life for decades. I’m naturally calm, patient, and incredibly attentive, which helps dogs feel safe, grounded, and relaxed — especially in new or unfamiliar environments. I’m confident with small breeds, senior pups, and dogs who need consistency or specific routines. I understand how important structure, gentleness, and affection are to their wellbeing, and I bring that same care to every dog I look after. Caring for pets fits naturally into my routine because I’m someone who prioritizes structure, presence, and calm energy in my day-to-day life. When I’m staying in a client’s home, I fully adapt to their pet’s existing schedule — feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific routines they’re used to. I believe the best care comes from consistency, so I make sure their day flows as closely as possible to how it does when their owner is home. Since I don’t host pets in my own home, I’m fully dedicated to being present in the client’s space. I maintain a clean, peaceful environment, follow all house guidelines, and give each pup the attention and companionship they need to feel safe and comfortable. Whether it’s long walks, cuddles, structure, or quiet time, I match their energy and make sure they feel supported, loved, and well cared for throughout my stay.
About: As a cat owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone who truly loves and respects pets, and I bring that same level of care to every pet I sit for. I make sure your pet not only receives proper care but also feels like a part of the family while you’re away. Having two cats with unique needs, I am experienced in administering medications, whether it’s oral medication, topical treatments, or even injections if necessary. I know how to make these processes as stress-free as possible for both the pet and the owner. My patience and knowledge in this area allow me to confidently care for pets with medical needs. I am deeply committed to maintaining a clean and comfortable environment for your pets. They can be very particular about their space, and I take pride in ensuring they have a clean, safe area to call their own. I am currently not working, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your babies! I am available most of the time, whenever it works for you! I keep your pet’s living area clean and comfortable, making sure their food and water bowls are regularly filled. If your pet requires medication or has special needs, I handle them with care and patience. I ensure that they get the mental and physical stimulation they need. I know how important it is to stay connected with your pets while you're away. I provide regular updates, including photos and videos, so you can see how your pets are doing and rest easy knowing they’re in good hands. While caring for your pets, I respect your home and privacy. I make sure to follow any specific instructions you provide and maintain a tidy, safe environment. Whether it’s watering plants, bringing in mail, or simply following your house rules, I aim to make everything as seamless as possible while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of pets - from cats, dogs, horses and more - since I was 6 years old! I grew up with a Portuguese Water Dog which is a very high energy breed and was the known neighborhood dog and cat sitter whenever anyone went out of town!

Safety is of the utmost importance in my care and I always think of the pets’ needs first no matter if we are at home, out on a walk, or at the park.
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs from working dogs to stay at home dogs. 1 LAPD working dog being an aggressive German Shepard, another LAPD working dog an energetic German Shorthair. As well as a handful of smaller energetic dogs and lapdogs. I fully ensure that I can handle all different dogs and their personalities. ☺️ I’m currently working part time but I still have plenty of gaps in my schedule that I’d like to fill. I like to maintain busy so caring for animals seems like a fun choice 🤗. I live in a big neighborhood that has plenty of space for walking and playtime.

I understand that every dog has unique needs, and I focus on providing a safe, loving, and reliable experience while keeping pets happy, active, and comfortable. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine because I’m a very active person. I enjoy long walks, have trained for half marathons, and love spending time outdoors at places like the beach and parks. I’m fully available and flexible, so I can easily adjust my schedule around pet care needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or simply spending time with pets, I genuinely enjoy incorporating it into my day and staying active while caring for animals.

I enjoy taking dogs on walks and potty breaks, keeping them active and hydrated, and spending time playing with them, like throwing the ball or engaging in interactive play. I also make sure their environment stays clean and comfortable, and I always take time for cuddles and attention so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away.
About: Giving your pets so much love, while leaving your home better than when you left. Grew up on a farm in Canada with many animals, while also having pets over the years since. In addition to providing reliable and loving care for your pet(s) and home, I also offer Animal Reiki sessions and gentle energetic space clearing—helping your pet feel calmer and your home feel refreshed and balanced while you’re away. I’ve been house and pet sitting for friends for awhile now and have led a digital nomad life around the world in 45 countries and counting since 2010. Thought I’d give this platform a try as I’m in transition and planning to settle down in California permanently while checking out more areas to see what’s a long term fit. I love animals, playing beach volleyball, and run my own digital marketing agency of 15 years that has always been remote-first so have a very flexible schedule that I create. Looking forward to caring for your home and pets! I grew up on a farm in northern Canada and it sustained our family so I have a lot of experience with pets and many animals, from our own dogs and cats, to rabbits, cattle, pigs and chickens. I’ve lived in many cities around the world since and also had additional pets throughout life and have often been asked to care for friend's and family’s pets and homes over the years. I absolutely love it because I move around a lot and do not have my own at the moment.

“Christy and her family were so great and welcoming to our pup. He was loved, well cared for, and so happy when we picked him up that we knew he was in the perfect place. We feel lucky to have found Christy’s home and have no doubt we will use her again.”
“I felt very comfortable, leaving our little dog with Angelica. The moment we met, I could tell she has compassion and nurturing ways. . Throughout the day, I received photos and saw that our Max was happy and content. I’m so glad I found a person who will love and care for our dog when we need help.”
“Andrew and Jess are awesome as they simply care and treat your pets as their own! From the planning and meeting in advance prior to the dog care period, they made sure we connected to collaborate on the care and consistency of how and what to care. They put the dogs' needs as a priority from wake of day to when the dogs hit the bed. I would request of their services again!”
About: With over 30 years of caring for both dogs and cats, I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and know how to make pets feel safe, calm, loved, and comfortable, especially when their owners are away or at work. I offer more than basic pet sitting; I create a nurturing environment where pets receive personalized attention, affection, exercise, and emotional support. My background in healthy lifestyle coaching also helps me stay attentive, active, organized, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I am particularly patient with senior pets, shy animals, and pets that need extra reassurance or consistency in their routines. It fits into my schedule because I can spend time with them at the beach, the dog park, walking around town, or just hopping in the car to visit a larger dog park. Life is good when time isn't an issue. My home is fenced and offers plenty of space for outdoor play. Plus, we spend most of our time outside. I cook homemade food for my fur baby and always take a nap after a long walk. You can feel reassured knowing your fur babies will have someone present, attentive, experienced, and caring while they are away.

I would definitely recommend her, and I am sure we will be back. Thanks much Marilyn!!”
“I can not say enough great things about Gina and her care for my Gigi. Breaking this down ; I was in desperate need of a doggy sitter for a last minute wedding trip out of town. I found Rover online and gave it a shot. I came across Gina's profile and saw all her raving reviews so I knew I had to try her out . I was looking for someone who would take care of my Gigi the way I would ,and someone who would truly give Gigi lots of love and attention. Gina was that person! She was communicative from the beginning , even adjusting her availability to make my schedule work . She was nothing short of excellent in communication and transparency. The moment I dropped off Gigi, Gina gave a warm welcome and Gigi was easily taken with her. Gina sent frequent updates on Gigi making me feel totally at ease being so far away. Every correspondence was immediately replied to - loved it. It was obvious that Gina was experienced in taking care of dogs . Also, I could tell from the pictures sent that Gigi was super happy and comfortable. I recommend anyone that uses Rover to book Gina , you're dog will be in loving hands!”
“We really appreciate all the love and care that our little guy received while we were away! Everyday we received updates about how he was doing. We enjoyed our vacation because we were confident that our furry family member who had to stay behind was getting so much love. We could see in the pictures that he was happy and fit right.”
“Birgitta, her husband and son provided Scully with a great weekend away from home! Consistent updates in the form of photos and quick messages on their activities for the day helped us be very comfortable that Scully was being well taken care of. I would recommend Birgitta to anyone looking for great pet care, and will certainly be booking her in the future!”
“We left our senior dog with Annie and Kina for 2 weeks while out of country. Annie is super responsive, smart and so sweet. She sent pics everyday, took him out (with our permission), and gave us updates. She handles senior dogs w health issues and on a medical routine very well. We’d definitely recommend Annie!!”
“Dorothy was an outstanding sitter!! This was our first time having her watch our pup, and she did such a fantastic job spoiling him! Not only did she take great care of keeping him on his schedule and keep us updated with plenty of pictures and text updates, but she also brought him along on all of her daily activities so he was never left alone. We were able to fully relax on our vacation knowing that Waffles was in the best hands and having a blast with Dorothy and her pup, Izzy, who got along with him so well. I can’t recommend her enough!”
“Stephanie was great! Wonderful communication and prompt responses. She sent lots of photos throughout our dogs stay which made us feel very comfortable and happy. This was our first Rover and Wes can be difficult, so we really appreciate all the care and love Stephanie gave him!”
