“Topo + Coco LOVE Ryan! Highly recommend booking with him if you need some help with your dogs in the West LA area :). They always come back tired too which is great for us coming back from holiday traveling 🤣. We appreciate the care he puts into them!”

“Lucinda took wonderful care of our dog Kona while we were away! She sent daily photo updates, kept us in the loop throughout the stay, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pup was well cared for and happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lucinda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!”

“Brittany always takes such good care of Butter! The old guy has a lovely time hanging w her and her sweet pup. And she’s v responsive and kind. Highly recommend.”

“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”

“Jonathan was great! He was very communicative and asked great questions to make sure our dog was in awesome hands! He sent lots of updates of the fun activities they did! Our pup came home happy, safe and tuckered out. We will definitely be using Jonathan again and only him!”

“We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter for Lola. From start to finish, Arim and her husband were absolutely amazing. We received multiple updates every single day, including photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were traveling. They asked thoughtful questions whenever needed, so it was clear Lola’s care was always their top priority. On top of that, they went above and beyond playing with Lola and taking her on long walks and runs. Lola was clearly happy, loved, and so well cared for. We would 100% trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pup.”

“Jess and Max are incredible! They shared the sweetest pictures and updates while we were away. Luna came back in great spirits and we know she had the best time and was very well cared for. We will definitely reach out to Jess and Max when we need a dog sitter in the future. We felt like Luna had her own weekend vacation while we were away on ours!”

“I cannot recommend Shelley enough. She was so kind to accommodate a very last minute booking (over the course of a Holiday, no less) and her entire demeanor and approach put my mind at ease knowing my senior labradoodle Boots would be in good hands while I was away. It was clear from all the updates and pictures she shared throughout Boots’ stay that he had a great time. I’m admittedly picky when it comes to boarding my dog, and I honestly feel so relieved to have found someone who I will absolutely call upon again if we need! Thanks much, Shelley!”

“My dog and I really hit the jackpot finding Jamie! Her love of dogs and years of professional veterinary experience is very apparent from the moment you meet her, and she's knowledgeable, kind and flexible. She sent the nicest messages and cutest pics throughout my trip, and I knew with full confidence that my dog was well cared for and having a very fun time staying with her! This was my first Rover experience and wow, was I lucky! I highly recommend Jamie!”

“Colin was a great choice. He provided regular updates and photos throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. Our dog can be a handful at times, but he handled her energetic personality with ease. She came back calm and happy, so we know she had a great experience with him. We definitely plan to book with him again!”

About: I am a young professional based right by the beach in Santa Monica with lots of love for animals. I pride myself on nursing a 1 WEEK old Pit Bull in 2020 and since she has grown to be strong and healthy (see photos for reference)! I grew up with multiple dogs in my family, five to be exact. I would train my dogs, walk them, groom them, feed them and sometimes spoil them with dog treats. I used to house and dog sit for a family with two Pit Bulls. I really enjoy the companionship pets provide, and I look forward to future sitting opportunities. I am open to most breeds for all services I offer. Please contact me for any future sitting or boarding inquiries you may have! I look forward to your request. I find I am available mostly on week nights Monday-Thursday. I do work full-time during the weekdays, but I make time before and after work for walks and play. I am also available weekends and some holidays. My weekends mostly consist of Saturday afternoons to Sunday evenings (subject to change). I live in a secured upper unit apartment away from the street. The street I live on isn’t busy. I always make sure of safety first, especially when caring for animals.
“Alyssa was a great sitter for my pup. Quick to respond, sent lots of pics and was very accommodating. Her pup Leo is adorable and got along great with mine. Her yard is a great bonus. Highly recommend!”

“JoJo has watched Nugget twice now and I couldn’t be happier with how he was taken care of. Not only was JoJo incredibly communicative with updates, but asked questions to make sure I was comfortable with how he was handling my dog and frankly treated him like his own. Nugget came back to me on both occasions so happy and healthy- I couldn’t ask for a better sitter experience.”

“Absolutely loved having Lisa as our petsitter! She took amazing care of our senior pup, who needs extra attention and multiple medications each day. We were nervous about being away for over a week, but Lisa put us completely at ease. She sent daily photos and videos (which we looked forward to so much!) and it was clear they were having a great time together. She even surprised him with treats for his 15th birthday — so thoughtful! Couldn’t have asked for a more caring and reliable sitter. 🐾💕”


“Left my pup with Morgan for a quick weekend out and she was great! Regular updates and pictures, quick to message about any questions or concerns, and made sure she was plenty entertained. Thanks again and hope I get the chance to have Mako stay with her again.”

“Arezu was so sweet and took great care of Luna. She sent pictures and videos daily and checked in with me when she had any concerns. She even hand fed Luna the first day when Luna was a little nervous. She is very lovely person and it made me feel good to know that Luna was in such good hands. Thank you, Arezu :)”

About: I've cared for cats of all ages and personalities for over 10 years and have also had my own cat, so I understand firsthand the importance of routine, patience, and respecting each cat's personality. I've helped with friends, neighbors, and family with feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and check-ins while they're away. I grew up in a home full of animals with a veterinarian mom, which has made me comfortable following detailed care instructions and noticing changes in behavior or health.

“Sophia was absolutely wonderful. She is a fantastic walker and sitter who is punctual, communicative, and puts the dog's well-being first. When my dog was feeling anxious and refusing walks during the visits, Sophia handled it beautifully—she adapted very well, sat down to comfort my dog, and communicated with me. She made sure my dog was well-fed and cared for. Will be booking her again in the future!”


“Alena was kind, very responsive & communicated throughout the trip making my mind at ease. She asked questions and went above & beyond. Highly recommend! My dog & cat loved her. Thank you Alena!”

“Karlie was great! She sent us daily updates and pictures of our two cats. They really seemed to enjoy her prescience. She was very responsible and responsive. We hope to work with her again in the future!”


“Lucinda was amazing! When my usual cat sitter cancelled last minute before Christmas, Lucinda agreed to watch my kitty for a full week. She sent lots of pictures every day, and was very flexible with pick up and drop off times. I would highly recommend trusting Lucinda with your pet, and I will definitely be using her services again! Thanks Lucinda!!”


“Elham was beyond exceptional. She was so kind, communicative, caring and went above and beyond to take good care of my two fur babies. My female cat is extremely wary of anyone she does not know, but Elham made her feel so safe, she actually came out to play with her which was a first! Both of them usually don’t eat much either when we travel and I was so happy to see through Elham’s photos they were actually eating their wet food. I felt so safe and happy she was there for them! Link and Zelda love you Ellie!!!”


“Jessica was available last minute and did an amazing job with my cat Hobbes. While she stayed with him overnight she made sure to send photos and multiple updates through out the visit and eased my mind of leaving him home. Highly recommend her to anyone!!!”

Prices are estimates per day for 1 dog. Pricing may vary based on your search and includes a booking fee of 11%.
“Yupee is a very intuitive dog person. I loved the way she gave my Juliet senior dog the space to be independent and longing for "mommy". Yupee created an atmosphere for Juliet to find her own comfort zone. By the way Juliet's comfort zone was mostly hanging out near the door and guarding the front door activity in case I appeared. For a first visit, I did not expect Juliet to be the adventure seeking girl she once was years ago. Knowing that Juliet's attentive nature was perfectly in the realm of OK behavior, let me know Yupee understood the both active and attentive dogs. Yupee offered stellar communication, care and understanding with Juliet. . A true bonus Yupee is very understanding with people as well. I look forward to establishing a lasting relationship for Juliet and myself with Yupee.”

“Heather is an absolutely wonderful sitter! She frequently left detailed updates providing my dog with loving attention, care, and kindness that left me with a real peace of mind throughout the whole entire day. This was my first time using this service and she did such an outstanding job that left me completely satisfied. 10/10”

“Lucinda was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Gigi! This was Gigi’s first time staying with her, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Lucinda took exceptional care of her, made her feel comfortable and loved, and it was clear that Gigi had an amazing time. Lucinda is kind, reliable, communicative, and has a genuine love for animals. We are so grateful to have found her and look forward to our pup staying with her again. :)”

“Scout always has a great time with Gwen and her pup! She’s super flexible when it comes to booking and is very understanding of my dog’s quirks. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a sitter for a day or overnight.”

“Jonathan did a fantastic job watching my dog while I attended a work function. He was very kind, clearly knowledgeable about dogs, and took great care to keep my anxious pup happy and comfortable while I was away. I highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!”

“You know how dogs can tell whether someone is a good person? Yeah, my dog leaned his head against Christelle’s leg immediately. We were in a bind and needed dog sitting at the last minute and we were so fortunate she was available. They hung out at an amazing dog park and her pup and our dog had a blast.”

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs, so I truly understand how much they mean to a family. I genuinely love caring for animals and always adapt to each pet’s unique personality. I take into account their breed, age, and energy level to make sure they get the right balance of attention, play, and rest. Living in Santa Monica has been amazing—I walk or run by the beach every day, often twice, and it’s even better with a dog by my side. I’m excited to meet you and your fur baby!

“Abby is so easy to work with and very patient and caring with our anxious little guy. He warmed quickly to her affectionate and fun side as he was 'beyond' excited to see her the next week. She has shown to be very reliable and a great communicator with humans as well as dogs :) We feel blessed to have found such a caring, knowledgable, and dependable dog caregiver!!”

I get tons of picture updates throughout the day (which I absolutely love), and she always keeps me in the loop on how he’s doing. Wylie comes home happily exhausted every single time — which tells me he’s getting so much love, playtime, and attention while he’s with her.

About: I've been an animal lover my whole life, and for 14 years I had the privilege of caring for my German Shepherd, who I sadly lost recently. That experience taught me a lot about the patience, routine, and attention that dogs, especially as they age, really need. I'm open to caring for senior dogs and know how to watch for the little things that make them comfortable, but I also love caring for high energy puppies and the work that goes into them. Growing up, I regularly walked and watched neighbors' and friends' dogs, so I'm used to adapting to different personalities and routines. I'll treat your pet like my own, whether they need a a walking buddy or overnight stay! I am currently home on summer break, so I am available full time to care for your animals! Mornings and afternoons are best for me, but I am happy to work around your schedule and needs. Your pet's safety and comfort is my top priority. I have a large, fenced backyard, so your dog can safely run and play without any worry about escaping. My neighborhood is very walkable, with several nearby parks that allow [off-leash play / dogs], which makes it easy to mix up walks and exploration to keep things interesting. Inside my home, pets have a calm, comfortable space to relax, with regular potty breaks, fresh water, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel secure, while staying flexible to match each pet's individual needs — whether that means extra rest for a senior dog or more playtime and structure for a puppy. I always supervise pets closely, especially in the yard or during walks, and keep emergency contact info and vet details on hand just in case.

About: I have a deep love for dogs and hands-on experience caring for a variety of pups! I regularly dog-sit for family members, including energetic poodles and smaller breeds, so I know how to handle different personalities and energy levels. What truly sets me apart is my experience with specialized care. I helped care for my grandmother’s dog when his hind legs stopped working, becoming fully comfortable managing a dog who uses a wheelchair for mobility. Because of this, I am incredibly patient, attentive, and confident when it comes to senior dogs or pets with special physical needs. Your pup will be in safe, loving, and understanding hands! I'm currently working remote, so I will have plenty of time dedicated to your pups! I have boarding availability on the weekdays. I can walk dogs at any time during the day. In my home, your pup will have the perfect mix of relaxation and outdoor fun! I have two spacious patios with plenty of room for dogs to lounge safely in the fresh air or stretch their legs. Best of all, I live right next to a park, making it incredibly easy to take your dog out for frequent, fun walks and sniffing adventures. My space is secure, cozy, and setup to feel like a home away from home.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats in the home and miss having a little friend around. I recently was a dog / house sitter through WorkAway in New Zealand and loved being able to see a new area on walks with a pet. In high school I volunteered with Michelson Found Animals Shelter as well as Best Friends Animal Society in Utah for a Summer. I love all animals - every shape, color, and size! I'm currently living at home for the Summer after spending the year traveling in New Zealand and unemployed. I've got all the time in the world to spend time with your pet outside of hanging out with my family. I'm very diligent and know I can keep your pet safe. I am happy to give them freedom to roam or make sure they stay in your preferred safe zones - whatever you tell me is best!
About: I grew up around dogs and have had large dogs of my own. This taught me how to care for dogs of all temperaments and how to get to know each dogs preferred walking and play style. I enjoy getting to know each pets rhythms and keeping them conformable as they get their daily exercise. I also offer attentive drop-in visits for feeding, playtime, litter box care, and companionship to help pets feel comfortable and relaxed while you’re away. I provide dependable dog walking and drop-in pet care in Santa Monica for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I have experience with both puppies and senior pets, and I’m comfortable adapting care to each animal’s routine, personality, and needs. Outside of Rover, I’m a wildlife rescue volunteer and foster parent to cats, which has given me hands-on experience with animals from a wide range of backgrounds and temperaments. Whether it’s regular dog walking in Santa Monica or reliable drop-in visits, I prioritize safety, consistency, and making sure every pet feels secure and cared for. I am currently on a gap summer before continuing my education, and enjoy pet sitting as a way to save up some money for school between volunteering and working on my summer research project. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and trusting environment for every pet in my care. I take the time to get to know each animal so I can provide care that is tailored to their individual needs, routines, and personality. I care for every pet as if they were my own, always paying attention to their comfort, behavior, and well-being. With experience caring for a wide range of animals, I understand that every pet has unique boundaries and quirks, and I make it a priority to respect those while building trust at their own pace. My goal is to ensure each pet feels secure, understood, and comfortable while in my care.

Why Dogs (and Owners) Love Staying Here 🐾 Intentionally small group setting 🌿 Large, fully fenced private yard 🧠 Experienced with high-energy and anxious dogs ❤️ Individualized attention, never a kennel environment Caring for dogs isn’t just what I do, it’s what I love.

Inside, the home is engaging and structured so dogs who need attention or routine feel supported.

About: I love dogs and cats. Happy to care for them in your home or on walks or playdates. They have their own personalities and that is so precious. I have experience with cats, dogs, puppies. It depends on the schedule, but sometimes I work from home so my schedule can be open. Lunch hours are flexible for me, so that is a good daily time for me to do walks and playdates and looking in on cats. I can be flexible about where and when I provide services, but I do need to get some information about clients and their neighborhood before I accept new clients. I will be asking some questions for my own personal comfort and safety. I will do at home visits, in hotel visits, walks, playdates, and at home house-sitting. I will not have pet care in my home as a service. If you live in LA or you are here on vacation, I am here for your dog so you can take a break for work or a social event or a massage or shopping.
“Thank you so much, Arezu! We just love Arezu and really appreciate how good she is to my Everest. She always communicates and makes us feel comfortable leaving our beloved Husky mix with her. She is the best!”


About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 15 years old! I grew up with an English lab (VINNIE). I have a dog of my own, who is full of joy , love, and energy. He is a toy poodle. Animals have always been attracted to me because of my warm personality and affection. I am a model signed with a large agency in LA. I have lots of down time when I am not shooting, so my day is wide open for walks :) I am very clean and organized, making sure that your doggie has everything he/she needs to be comfortable and happy. All I need is the leash, and we will be on our way for the walk:)
About: Hi! I’m Hasan Farajov, 25 years old, a student who works from home and absolutely loves spending time outdoors.

“She is amazing!! Have used her so many times for my pup and Ivy loves her! And she’s so observant and always makes sure my dog is taken care of and has water after walks on hot Cali days”


About: I have had 3 dogs since I was 3 years old, and have a passion for animals all together! I have a lot of experience walking dogs, feeding dogs, and cleaning up after dogs. I currently have 2 puppies right now, so I have a lot of experience with younger dogs as well! I have experience in giving medication to pets as well, especially oral medication. I have always had a huge soft spot for dogs, and you will not regret choosing and trusting me to handle your pet! I get along with all dogs, and am a responsible working professional who is looking for some extra cash. Let me know if you are interested in having me watch your dogs at anytime! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I plan my schedule to make sure pets get consistent attention and care. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to handle feeding times, walks, play sessions, and check-ins throughout the day. I typically structure my day so I can prioritize pet visits, whether that’s starting with morning walks, midday drop-ins, or evening care. On a weekly basis, I keep my schedule flexible to accommodate recurring bookings as well as last-minute requests when possible. I’m reliable about maintaining routines that pets are used to, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while in my care. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are my top priorities when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs so I can provide consistent and personalized care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions closely—this includes feeding schedules, walk routines, medication (if needed), and any house rules. I make sure pets feel secure by maintaining their normal routine and giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and affection. I’m also mindful about keeping doors, gates, and any potential hazards secure at all times. If caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment where they can relax and feel comfortable. I monitor interactions, keep the space free of hazards, and ensure pets have access to fresh water, a cozy resting area, and regular exercise. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and quick responses to help owners feel confident and at ease while their pet is in my care.
About: Hi, I'm Bernadette! I have owned dogs my whole life and love the care and support they bring to everyone in their household (because I'll admit, mine are the true rulers of the house). Physical health is a big thing for my pups and I love taking dogs for walks in parks with lots of green space for them to enjoy. I have privately taken care of neighbors puppies before Rover for about 10 years and loved every minute of it. I have trained my family dog and would love to work on some training if that's needed or wanted. Your pup will get 100% attention from me to achieve 100% happiness for them. I'm here to help give your pet some much-needed love, and exercise.

“Topo + Coco LOVE Ryan! Highly recommend booking with him if you need some help with your dogs in the West LA area :). They always come back tired too which is great for us coming back from holiday traveling 🤣. We appreciate the care he puts into them!”

“Lucinda took wonderful care of our dog Kona while we were away! She sent daily photo updates, kept us in the loop throughout the stay, and was always quick to respond to messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pup was well cared for and happy. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Lucinda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and thoughtful sitter!”

“Jennifer was awesome! She was available to watch our dog within a weeks notice and took such good care of him 😀 sent tons of photos and updates. We felt super comfortable and safe knowing our dog was in good hands. Highly recommend using Jennifer if you ever need a sitter in the area. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️”

“Jonathan was great! He was very communicative and asked great questions to make sure our dog was in awesome hands! He sent lots of updates of the fun activities they did! Our pup came home happy, safe and tuckered out. We will definitely be using Jonathan again and only him!”

“My dog and I really hit the jackpot finding Jamie! Her love of dogs and years of professional veterinary experience is very apparent from the moment you meet her, and she's knowledgeable, kind and flexible. She sent the nicest messages and cutest pics throughout my trip, and I knew with full confidence that my dog was well cared for and having a very fun time staying with her! This was my first Rover experience and wow, was I lucky! I highly recommend Jamie!”

“Colin was a great choice. He provided regular updates and photos throughout her stay, which we really appreciated. Our dog can be a handful at times, but he handled her energetic personality with ease. She came back calm and happy, so we know she had a great experience with him. We definitely plan to book with him again!”

“Alyssa was a great sitter for my pup. Quick to respond, sent lots of pics and was very accommodating. Her pup Leo is adorable and got along great with mine. Her yard is a great bonus. Highly recommend!”


“Left my pup with Morgan for a quick weekend out and she was great! Regular updates and pictures, quick to message about any questions or concerns, and made sure she was plenty entertained. Thanks again and hope I get the chance to have Mako stay with her again.”

“Yasaman was such a great sitter for Mylo. I was so worried as a first time Rover user how the process would turn out. Yasaman was very friendly, accommodating, and it’s very clear that Mylo enjoyed his time with her. He is an energetic puppy, and her patience and attentiveness was so helpful. She was also great with sending pictures and all of that. I’d recommend Yasaman for sure!”

“Jamie and Todd are incredible people, who we felt genuinely loved our pup as much as we do. Our pup got spoiled, and it shows with how much our dog loved them. 100000/10 would recommend for dog sitting. Thank you Jamie and Todd!”

“Jinyen and co were fantastic!! Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Pepper! Just the right amount of photos and checking in, and our Pepper came home happy and healthy! Couldn't have asked for better. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!”

“I can’t say enough great things about Michael. First — you must know that our dog is our baby, so leaving her with just anyone won’t do and we’re always nervous to try out a new sitter. However, we were completely at ease from the very moment we reached out. First, Michael is INCREDIBLY responsive — within minutes of our booking request, he’d gotten back to us confirming availability and suggesting a meet and greet. This continued during the entirety of our stay - if we had a question or checked in, he responded within minutes. We also received multiple updates per day with a variety of hilarious photos (yet another sign that our dog was completely comfortable in his presence), reassuring us everything was going well. It was also clear from our communications and Michael’s interaction with our dog that he is very experienced with all varieties of dogs and had no issues with the extra energy our dog sometimes needs to get out of her system! She got multiple walks per day, was treated to breakfast outings walking around the neighborhood, farmers markets, and even took a trip to the grocery store! Our dog came home healthy, happy and completely relaxed, and we could not be more thankful to have found Michael for our sitting needs! Thank you again!”

“Sloane was fantastic and took great care of my dog, Wesley! We were visiting from out of town and needed someone to take care of our pup for a few days. She was extremely flexible and able to help out when unexpected things popped up. Wish we were local and would love to have her watch our dog again if we are ever back in LA! Wesley came home super happy, too!”

About: Hi there! I'm Jenny, and I have always been an animal lover. Throughout my life, I always had at least one furry family member by my side. I'm so excited to open my home and heart to your pup! I bring a lifetime of hands on experience, from high-energy puppies who needed tons of stimulation, to senior dogs who have special medication requirements and just wanted gentle cuddles. I get that every dog is different, and I truly love learning each pup's personality! Speaking of family, meet Hank, my adorable pug and the true king of our home! 👑 Hank is friendly, social, and absolutely loves having doggy guests over. He's the perfect built-in playmate and icebreaker for any pup who comes to stay. Fair warning: he's irresistibly squishy and loves to play. Since Hank lives here full-time, your pup will need to be friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I always start with a meet-and-greet. It's the perfect chance for us to meet and for our dogs to sniff each other out to make sure it's a great match before any booking. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means your baby won't be spending the day alone. Lots of walks, playtime, and snuggles are guaranteed. Please share any details about the daily routine and I’ll make sure they feel right at home. When your pup stays with me, they will be a part of our family. I have plenty of dog beds, toys, bowls, and treats to make the stay comfortable! I already love taking pictures of Hank, so you will get plenty of photo and videos of their stay.
“Winnie had an amazing time with Lydia & Benji! They were incredibly communicative and sent pictures of Winnie throughout her stay. We will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
