“What a wonderful family! Daisy was well cared for and loved on. I appreciate all the videos and great communication during Daisy's stay. Daisy enjoyed her time. Looking forward to her next stay.”
“April and her husband are amazing! Great communication and I received quality pictures and videos! The updates made me feel at ease. I could see that Mei Mei was enjoying herself and learned that she’s a natural guard for babies?! I appreciated the attentiveness and care they gave to her. Thank you for being flexible and patient with me as I adjusted the drop off time and ended up experiencing a delay en route. 🙏🏽 I would definitely book again and have peace of mind knowing she was well taken cared of. Good energy and dog lovers for sure. Definitely worth 🐾 - pawsing and considering. 😆 Thank you again! 🌼”
“It’s always a relief to find a safe and responsible dog sitter, especially with a last-minute schedule change. Even better, my lovely Goldendoodle, Rubee, has made a new friend.”
“Harlan was a terrific sitter and took wonderful care of our dog for nearly three weeks. We loved getting regular updates and texts. When we picked our dog up, he seemed happy and well cared for. Thank you, Harlan!”
About: I have experience dog sitting and handling dogs of all ages and sizes! I am compassionate and caring ensuring the best care is provided every time I currently have a very open availability to provide care in the home setting as well as walks and visits. I am passionate for caring for animals and make it a priority to be dependable in my care. I make cleanliness a priority ensuring that the pet is safely and lovingly taken care of while maintaining the cleanliness of the home for the pet owner! Making sure the pet is safe and cared for is always my number one priority at all times including when walking the dogs, inside the home or in the yard etc.
“Cookie spent 10 days at Dodi's house and it seems that he loved it ! Dodi has a nice and friendly little dog and they got along well. Dodi sent us photos of Cookie everyday. She is a very sweet person and will treat your dog as hers. Thanks Dodi for taking such good care of Cookie”
“Natalie was an absolutely amazing host, our dog had a wonderful time with her two friendly dogs and her dog-loving boyfriend. She has a very spacious house in a convenient location with a dedicated room for dogs. She was really nice to quickly accept taking care of our dog for an extra day due to an emergency as well. Will definitely ask her to dog sit again & to recommend to others.”
“AnnaDee and Julio are exceptional. Their family loves dogs and cats, and I could tell from the first day I met them. They are such a sweet family. My dog is very comfortable with them. They walk my dog and play with her every day. She is being taken care of so well. Thank you so much! I will definitely come back to them.”
“I had an amazing experience with Anna! She took wonderful care of my dog, Bo, and made sure he was well cared for. I didn’t have cell service while we were out town but she made me feel comfortable and that he was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Would 100% rebook with Siobhan! Took incredible care of my pug, was super quick to respond and sent me updates so I didn’t worry once. Would give 10 stars if it let me!”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“Our little pup did really well with Elaine & Martin. We were worried because our dog is kind of peculiar, but they were great with her! They sent photos so we could see how comfortable she was, and this allowed us to enjoy our trip and not worry. We have already booked another stay with them! They are great!”
“This was our second time boarding with Chris, and once again, he exceeded expectation…this time for two weeks! We couldn’t be happier with the attention our Frenchie received while staying with him. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he felt completely at ease and right at home. He didn’t even say goodbye before running right inside. Chris maintained our pup’s daily routine…from daily walks and playing soccer at the park, to evening wrestling matches. The regular updates and pics were awesome! We are 100% committed to boarding with Chris going forward and can’t recommend him enough to fellow pet parents looking for someone who treats your dog like family.”
“Erika was fantastic! She was willing to take on a mischievous puppy when no one else wanted her. She took her on outings and had faith in her. I believe Marley came home better behaved. I will definitely use Erika again. Plus she was super responsive whenever we contacted her.”
“Mary was great with my dog. He doesn’t like everyone, who does? Lol But he did great with Mary and their dog. I couldn’t have asked for more, really. He’s very active and they let him run 2x a day plus he got to cool off in their pool. If you’re concerned about leaving your dog, choose Mary, it will make you feel good every time you go away:)”
“Our dog Lincoln stayed with Silvana for the first time recently. He came home happy and well taken care of. Silvana responded quickly when I inquired about how Lincoln was doing and sent pictures as well. We will use her services again.”

“Sofia was so great! She took really great care of my cat Carl, who needs medicine and special food in the mornings. I got lots of photos of Carl while I was gone, and she even took my packages in and put my trash cans away. I would definitely recommend Sofia!! 💛”
“Avery is amazing! My cats absolutely loved her. She is professional, friendly and great with animals. We had issues with a delayed flight home at the end of a trip and Avery came in clutch and was able to do a drop-in to check on our fur babies since we were going to be 4+hrs late from the airport. It was such a relief to know that our cats were well cared for.”
“Such a great experience. I knew reading the bio I wanted to book Belle. She was prompt, efficient, and communication was seamless from start to finish. Everything felt easy and handled with care. I really appreciated how smooth the whole process was and my dogs were happy and well cared for. Would absolutely book again.”
About: I have taken care of cats since I was young and I've had two of my own. My son and his wife have five! I love all animals. During their stay or visits with me, all cats under my care will be fed, have a clean litter box, will be played with (according to their wants or needs), and be showered with affection, if the cat so desires, if not they can ignore me the whole time. It's completely up to them how much or how little they want to interact with me. If you'd like, I can send you pictures and/or videos throughout the stay too.
About: I'm a sensitive, caring responsible individual who loves to play with dogs and with whom dogs love to play. I've worked at the Glendale, CA Humane Society Shelter walking dogs and really enjoyed the experience. I've owned dogs for a good part of my life. However, I recently had to put Taffy, my last dog, to sleep. She was 16 and not doing well. It was heart wrenching and I thought perhaps that rather getting another, I could give the love I have for dogs to others, without having the ultimate burden of ownership. I live in Agoura Hills, CA. There lots of room for dogs to walk and play, lots of trees and grass for dogs to sniff and explore. There are also lots of other dogs in the community and opportunities for dogs to socialize, if the owners and the dogs want. I have a fenced yard and I work from home. I have a flexible schedule. Consequently, I can adapt my schedule to your dog's schedule. I have a fenced yard and I have no other dogs. Even though the house is on two levels, it's easy for dogs to navigate.
“Victoria was an amazing sitter for our beloved cat Lorelei while we were on our NYE trip. She is attentive and flexible and provided compassionate care and companionship. We will definitely reach out to her again for future cat sitting needs. :)”
About: In many of the activities that I’m involved in, such as color guard (marching band) and choir, punctuality and reliability are a necessity, and I will carry this over to my pet sitting responsibilities. In regards to my experience with cats, I myself grew up with a cat that required extra care and attention, so I can assure that the same care will be shown with your pet.
About: I've been around cats my whole life. Whether a part of my own family or pet-sitting them, I've seen all types of personalities. From playful kittens to grouchy granny cats, I've learned to understand and respect their affection styles. No matter if it's a flat-faced Persian or a massive Maine Coon, I understand different cats need different care; that's why every cat I look after gets personalized loving care
“Oli was able to accommodate my cat last minute while I was moving. My kitty tends to be nervous around new people and places, and Oli definitely helped her feel comfortable and safe (as evidenced by the cute pics she sent throughout her stay!). I’m super grateful to Oli and the care she gave my Josephine, highly highly recommend!! Her dog Benji is also a sweetheart :)”
About: I truly love all pets and animals, especially cats, and I’m excited to continue growing my experience as a sitter. I have cared for several cats by providing feeding, playtime, companionship, and attentive check-ins to keep them comfortable and happy while their owners are away. I am reliable, gentle, and focused on creating a safe, calm environment where each cat feels secure and cared for. I look forward to building more experience while giving your pets the same love and attention I would give my own.
“Courtney was absolutely amazing. I'm a crazy dog mom & hadn't ever left my girl. She's a therapy dog & my medical service dog & she goes everywhere with me but we were going to an airshow & I was worried about her ears so I didn't want to take her. We were camping in Malibu & it was difficult to find someone because everyone was a good distance from here but Courtney was agreeable to come to our RV park. She hadn't been here before & was so great at following directions. My dog loved her, I could see from the photos how happy she was. Courtney walked her & played with her. I couldn't recommend her more highly She kept me updated, communicated well, was on time, and most importantly made my pup so happy. She sent me updates for both visits and a lot of really cute pictures. I'm a sitter here on Rover as well and am very picky but if you're looking for a great dog walker/sitter, look no further...Courtney is absolutely FANTASTIC! I can highly recommend her and I will definitely book with her again in the future when we're in the area.”

About: I also have a lot of experience with cats, as I currently have three of my own. Living with cats has helped me understand their different personalities, boundaries, and routines. I know how important it is to respect their space while still giving them attention, playtime, and care in a way that makes them feel safe. I also have experience cat sitting and am comfortable with daily care such as feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playtime, and making sure they feel relaxed and comfortable while their owners are away.
“Brittany is wonderful! I booked her to look in on my cats and I sprung a dog on her to feed and walk as well, she was so nice and flexible about it, even figured out the dogs usual walk. Trustworthy + reliable!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for dogs and previously worked as a dog walker for Wag! while attending college full-time. During that time, I was even invited to apply for a customer support position at Wag!’s headquarters. After earning my degree in Fine Arts with an emphasis in Graphic Design, I transitioned into a creative career while continuing to care for pets whenever possible. My pet-sitting experience includes caring for dogs through Rover in both California and Hawaii. I am currently based in Agoura Hills, California. Having grown up with pets my entire life (especially dogs!) I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate to care for your furry family members. Raising my beloved 14-year-old Chihuahua mix, along with helping friends and family care for puppies and adult dogs of all sizes, has given me confidence, patience, and a genuine love for animal care. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, companionship, or extra attention while you’re away, I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I am available M-TH after 3 pm, Fridays after 12 pm, and weekends for dog walks or drop ins. Also available weekends for pet sitting / day care if needed :) I do not have my pup with me at the moment, will notify if this changes. I regularly would take pups on a walk around a few blocks, stopping for potty breaks at anytime with trashbags handy. I can provided treats as directed (approved by you or provided by as well, ofcourse!) to train or for good behavior when necessary. Food will be fed at any time instructed. I have potty trained dogs, do tricks (taught my dog how to roll over at 7 yrs old), and will acknowledge signs of when a dog needs a walk or attention. I am great with following directions and rest assured, you will know how your pup is doing as I enjoy taking pet portraits (as well as painting them if you’d like!)

About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your beloved fur babies! I spent the past three years working full time at an animal sanctuary where I cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, and sheep. My passion is riding horses and hiking with dogs. I've owned & loved 4 of my own horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats and several smaller animals in my life. I am an avid hiker and love being outside on my next adventure - hopefully with your pooch next! It's a true pleasure to enjoy the company of your beloved dog, horse, cat or other beloved family member. I'm a lucky mommy of two daughters ages 11 & 9 years who love animals as much as I do. They often join me in the animal care. I can't wait to help spoil your babies! My schedule is currently fairly open and flexible. I am especially available early in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening. Sat and especially Sunday are usually totally open for me. I would prefer to go to other people's homes to care for there pets however I could take one or possibly two smaller dogs in my own home. I do not have a yard but I go on long walks and have trails all around me.

“Anna and Steven were great for doggie day care! They were able to meet with us prior to our scheduled day for a meet and greet.

About: I have had pets since early childhood. Dogs, hamsters and even rats. I love animals and believe that each one has its own special character and individuality. And this means that I take this into account when caring for them. Some need to spend the whole day in a person's arms, and some do not like it when their personal space is invaded. I work from home, so I have the opportunity to constantly be near your pet and take care of it. I accept pets daily from 8 am to 9 pm. I provide all pet care services by myself, and no one else will be assisting me with the pets. We live in a nice clean and very quiet area, where there is enough space for walking. With us lives a wonderful friendly boy Brussels Griffon. Who will keep your baby company. We have quite a large apartment, a lot of space for games and zoomies!
“Colton loved his time with AnnaDee and Julio. They were easy to work with, sent cute photos and he got lots of playtime, attention, and came home super happy and tired. Just how you want them at the end of the day. Thank you!🙏”

It was comforting to know my furry guy was in great hands.”

About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I dog-sit very frequently! I absolutely love taking care of dogs and being able to spend my time with animals. I am a student in a masters program and Dogsitting is what I love to do in my free time! I work part time on Mondays, Wednesday’s and Fridays! I go to school three times a week. I am very flexible with time. Normally I have breaks every 4hrs at the latest to check in on the dogs throughout the week. I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog. However, I am more interested in watching dogs at their own homes. I am able to take your dogs on multiple walks throughout the day and giving them plenty of love and affection.
“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of our little guy during his walk! 😍 He may look like a big boy on the outside, but he’s actually very timid on the inside—and we are so grateful that you approached building a connection with him with such gentle sensitivity. 🙏🏻 Next time, we’ll definitely come straight back to you! 😉”
About: I’ve been dog sitting and dog watching for several years and have had the opportunity to care for many wonderful dogs, including several families who trust me with their pets year after year. I love spending time with dogs, whether that means going on walks, playing, or simply relaxing together and keeping them company. Since I can’t have a dog of my own right now, dog sitting is a fun and rewarding way for me to get my dog fix while helping pet owners feel confident that their furry family members are being well cared for. I treat every dog as if they were my own and enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. I’m an elementary school teacher, so I have summers off and extra flexibility in my schedule during those months. Rover is a fun way for me to stay active, spend time with animals, and earn a little extra income while school is out. Since I can’t have a dog of my own right now, I love getting my dog fix by caring for and spending time with other people’s pets! Your dog will be cared for in a spacious, pet-friendly apartment where they’ll have plenty of room to relax and feel comfortable. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. I also live with my partner, who loves dogs and enjoys spending time with them, so your pup will have plenty of companionship and care while staying with us. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, happy, and right at home.
“Julia was wonderful. She was always on time and spent quality time with our corgi, taking him on his morning and evening walks. We’ll use her again and recommend anyone in the Agora Hills area consider hiring her.”
About: For us, this isn’t just dog sitting it’s a second home. We don’t treat dogs like bookings or numbers. Every dog that stays with us becomes part of the family, receiving plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout the day. We provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable, especially those who may be shy or adjusting to a new place. We’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ pets for the past three years, with stays ranging from one week to as long as two months. We’re happy to provide recommendations if needed. We also have a friendly 5-year-old mini Goldendoodle mix at home, so your dog will always have a companion to play with and feel at ease. We keep owners updated with regular photos and messages, so you’ll always have peace of mind while you’re away. What truly sets us apart is the consistency and genuine care. We treat every dog like our own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine, as we’re home most of the time and able to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. We plan our schedule around their needs, including regular potty breaks, feeding times, playtime, and rest. Our whole family is involved in caring for the dogs. We have a 24-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter, so there’s almost always someone at home to provide attention, supervision, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and we make sure they feel included in our day-to-day activities. Whether it’s relaxing indoors, supervised outdoor time, or just being nearby, they’re always cared for and watched over. On a weekly basis, we keep things consistent so dogs can settle into a routine quickly, which helps them feel comfortable and secure during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. In our home, we provide a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. We primarily care for small to medium-sized dogs, allowing us to maintain a calm, safe, and more personalized setting. We take time to understand each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so we can care for them accordingly. We supervise dogs closely throughout the day and never leave them unattended for long periods. Our home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy companionship, consistency, and a quieter environment. We’re experienced with longer stays, ranging from one week to as long as two months, and we help dogs settle in comfortably as if they’re part of the family. We’re also comfortable caring for senior dogs and administering time-sensitive medication, including an 11-year-old Maltese we regularly care for who requires medication twice daily. We follow all feeding instructions carefully, ensure fresh water is always available, and maintain a consistent schedule for potty breaks, playtime, and rest. If needed, we can separate dogs to keep everyone safe and stress-free. Communication is very important to us, so we provide regular updates, photos, and messages to give you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Above all, we offer a true home environment with consistent, attentive care—we treat every dog like our own.

When she came over to introduce herself to our “girls”, it was obvious that Dodi is a dog person. We would definitely use her again. Thank you, Dodi, for giving us the peace of mind that our girls were well cared for while we were away. Lauren, Ron, Maddie and Maggie”

About: I've taken care of dogs large and small for over a decade from bull mastiffs to anatolian shepherds. As a Behavioral Interventionist/therapist with 6 years of experience, I have developed strong observation skills, patience, attention to detail, and the ability to respond calmly to changing situations. Pet owners can expect someone who is loving, dependable, observant, and committed to treating their pets with the same care and respect that I would give my own. Whether it's dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, administering routines, or providing companionship while owners are away, I take pride in ensuring pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m currently working part-time as a school aide and a first time dad, but have plenty of time to play and attend your pet’s needs this summer. I am available for sitting on weekends and week days anytime until the next school year starts on August 14th 2026. I lived on a fenced property while raising our dogs. I can provide pets with consistent care, attention, and supervision based on their individual needs and routines. Whether that’s indoors or out.

“Josh was great and my dog loved him (70 lb Pit Mix)! Great communication, on-time, and very attentive to the notes provided. Josh provided detailed feedback on the walks. Will definitely use Josh again and would recommend him to everyone.”
“Jesse did a phenomenal job taking care of my dog Sirius when I was gone! He went above and beyond and kept me up to date the entire time. I am very thankful for Jesse and will be using him every time I have to go out of town. Jesse is a great person with a huge heart. Your pets couldn’t be in better hands!”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have 20 years of hands-on experience caring for them. Over the past 5 years, I’ve also worked as a pet sitter for friends, family, and neighbors, helping with walks, feeding, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with company, I’m happy to provide a safe, loving environment and treat them like my own. I’m currently a Biology student at Cal Poly SLO so I will have plenty of time to watch, take care of, and pamper your pups! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my priority. I always keep dogs securely leashed, stay aware of our surroundings, and adjust walks to their energy level and needs. I’m happy to follow any routines or training cues you provide so your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

“Harlan was a terrific sitter and took wonderful care of our dog for nearly three weeks. We loved getting regular updates and texts. When we picked our dog up, he seemed happy and well cared for. Thank you, Harlan!”
“Natalie was an absolutely amazing host, our dog had a wonderful time with her two friendly dogs and her dog-loving boyfriend. She has a very spacious house in a convenient location with a dedicated room for dogs. She was really nice to quickly accept taking care of our dog for an extra day due to an emergency as well. Will definitely ask her to dog sit again & to recommend to others.”
“I had an amazing experience with Anna! She took wonderful care of my dog, Bo, and made sure he was well cared for. I didn’t have cell service while we were out town but she made me feel comfortable and that he was in good hands. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Marcella is awesome she is a very caring and nurturing individual! She is really great with animals. I will definitely be using her in the future for all my animals! Thank you so much Marcella! 😊”
“This was our second time boarding with Chris, and once again, he exceeded expectation…this time for two weeks! We couldn’t be happier with the attention our Frenchie received while staying with him. From the moment we dropped him off, it was clear that he felt completely at ease and right at home. He didn’t even say goodbye before running right inside. Chris maintained our pup’s daily routine…from daily walks and playing soccer at the park, to evening wrestling matches. The regular updates and pics were awesome! We are 100% committed to boarding with Chris going forward and can’t recommend him enough to fellow pet parents looking for someone who treats your dog like family.”
“Erika was fantastic! She was willing to take on a mischievous puppy when no one else wanted her. She took her on outings and had faith in her. I believe Marley came home better behaved. I will definitely use Erika again. Plus she was super responsive whenever we contacted her.”
“Mary was great with my dog. He doesn’t like everyone, who does? Lol But he did great with Mary and their dog. I couldn’t have asked for more, really. He’s very active and they let him run 2x a day plus he got to cool off in their pool. If you’re concerned about leaving your dog, choose Mary, it will make you feel good every time you go away:)”
“Our dog Lincoln stayed with Silvana for the first time recently. He came home happy and well taken care of. Silvana responded quickly when I inquired about how Lincoln was doing and sent pictures as well. We will use her services again.”
“Karen is amazing! She made us feel so comfortable with leaving our “baby” (2-year-old doodle mix) because we could immediately see the bond between the two of them. Karen so clearly loves animals and is very responsive and sends lots of updates. We are so excited to have found Karen! Thank you very much!”
“David was BEYOND amazing with my 14 year old senior dog. She has a heart condition and requires a lot of medication. He was great at administering everything and super attentive with all of her needs. She had a little medical emergency while he was watching her. He updated me immediately and then took her to the urgent care for me as I was out of the country. I cannot recommend him more -- he went above and beyond with everything and I am super grateful my pup was in good hands while I was out of town. He is also great at sending photos!”
“This was our second time having our Doberman puppy stay with them and it just confirmed everything we already knew. They take the best care of him and their communication while we are away is amazing. We feel at peace knowing they take the best care of Desmond while we are away.”
“Rajarshi is absolutely amazing! He watched our dog like as if he was his own child! He sent us regular updates with pictures and videos of what our dog was doing during the day! Gave him 3-4 walks during the day, played with him and took such great care of him! We will always leave our dog with Rajarshi! Rajarshi’s background and experience in fostering dogs makes him one of the most experienced & well rounded pet sitter who you can trust blindfoldedly! I would say that anyone and everyone can trust him with their pets! I wish I could give him 10 stars ⭐️ but 5 is the maximum we can give so giving him 5 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“WOW! This was our first time using Andrew and Karrie. Their communication was excellent and timely. The pictures we received of our dog were so comforting, while on vacation. We could tell our dog was very content and was being well taken care of. Our dog came home so much differently than how she was coming home before when using a boarding service. She was happy! I would highly recommend them. I feel like we found a great match for our Chloe :)”
“Our dog Loooved his stay with this lovely family. They loved him like he was their own dog! They trained him to wait for food and behave before going on a walk. He’s a new dog! We love them??”
“We had such a great experience with Kiyarash as our dog sitter! He took care of our pup, Kai, and we couldn’t have asked for someone more reliable and caring. From the moment they met, Kiyarash made Kai feel comfortable and safe, which instantly put us at ease. He took her on regular walks, spent quality time with her, and really treated her like part of the family. We also really appreciated the photo and video updates he sent us throughout our time away—it was so reassuring to see Kai happy and well cared for. We’re incredibly grateful for the love and attention he gave her, and we’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future. Highly recommend!”
“Jordan was great with our two cats while we were on vacation. Communication was prompt and consistent, and he was very accommodating to our needs. He also made sure Jeffrey got his pills without any issues. We came home to happy, well-cared-for cats. Highly recommend!”
