“Great with my dog Austin, felt like I left him with family the way I got daily updates and occasional photos. I’m glad I found a home away from home for my soul dog”
“Janice was amazing taking care of Poro! She has such calming energy and my velcro child took a liking to her and her family immediately. That alone put my heart at ease and would highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Jing was very nice and loving with our puppy. Provided pictures and updates which was very comforting as it was our puppy’s first time boarding. We are lucky to find her on Rover last minute for our puppy.”
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about the incredible care my senior dog received from Rika! At 16 years old, blind, deaf, and struggling with mobility and severe nighttime anxiety, my dog needed a lot of special attention. Rika was a total angel, truly heaven-sent, and made my dog feel comfortable and safe throughout my chaotic move. Her compassion and dedication were extraordinary. She adapted to my dog’s routine seamlessly, providing constant updates with photos and videos that put my mind at ease. Knowing my dog was in such caring and capable hands was a huge relief. I highly recommend Rika to anyone who wants their pet to be treated like family with the utmost love and care!”
“It’s always been very hard for us to leave our dog, but Catherine and Albert have made it so much easier for us to travel without worry! They truly go above and beyond to make him feel like he’s just part of their family. Our dog loves playing in their amazing backyard and walking in their beautiful and safe neighborhood! They also put a lot of thought and time into making sure the pack is a good fit so everyone has fun and is comfortable! Beyond being wonderful and caring with him, they were so kind when our flight was delayed this past trip. They stepped in to watch him for an extra night without a second thought, which was such a huge relief during a stressful travel day. We’re so grateful to have found such kind, caring, reliable people who care for our pup as much as we do!”
“Ana and Mitchell were incredibly caring with Sophie. I needed a last-minute sitter for Sophie, who isn’t used to being home alone yet at 5 months, and they were amazing. What I love about them is that someone is always home and they only take one dog at a time. They were quick to schedule a meet-and-greet and were very welcoming. Sophie got to meet their dog, Ellie, and they got along instantly. Ana and Mitchell were flexible, accommodating, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure Sophie’s needs were met. We set up a short doggy date for a couple of hours, and it went perfectly- Sophie didn’t even notice we had left! Since leaving Sophie is new for us, we appreciated the frequent updates and their respect for her schedule. She came home happy and content, and it was clear she had a great time. Sophie will definitely be back soon. We even forgot a couple of things at their house and stopped by later, and Sophie was eager to go back inside to Ana and Mitchell’s home- showing just how comfortable she feels there.”
“This was our first time leaving Lucky with anyone. We met sherice and her kids before we left for our trip. They made us feel very comfortable . Lucky was very happy and so were we . I would definitely use them again. Since I can't give them more than five stars I'll add my own. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟”
“Adrienne was such a wonderful find for us! She watched our 14 lb, 11 year old Shi Tzu, who had never spent a night away from home in her life. She was extremely flexible and understanding when our plans went a little sideways. Our pup came home entirely relaxed, which confirmed Adrienne provided a comfortable and secure environment for our little princess! I can’t recommend Adrienne strongly enough!”
“Hillary was great with Oliver. She was super patient and understanding of his needs and slight anxiety. I appreciated her communication style and updates. Would definitely book again”
“Could not recommend Wanyi enough!! She was extremely communicative and flexible with pick up/drop-off and sent TONS of updates throughout the weekend. They took Odie on several walks and even on a hike to a waterfall!! Thank you so much showing him around Pasadena :)”
“Magdalena is an amazing sitter. She was so easy to work with especially after I made a mistake in my booking. She was so kind to me and great with my dog Ronda. Lots of pics and videos. She’s very good with dogs!”
“Albina is kind and great with dogs! My doggy can be a little difficult around people she doesn’t know, but she hit it off with Albina immediately! This was my second time working with her and she really is wonderful! I highly recommend Albina, she is communicative and send a lots of cute photos. I can’t recommend her enough.”
“We recently had the pleasure of entrusting our beloved pug, Nano, to Frances's care over a long weekend. From the moment we met Frances, we could sense her genuine love and passion for animals, and it quickly became apparent that we had made an excellent choice. Frances was incredibly attentive, caring, and detail-oriented throughout the entire dog-sitting experience. We were impressed by her dedication and commitment to providing the best possible care for our furry friend. From the moment we dropped off Nano, Frances kept us updated with regular and timely communications. We received frequent updates and adorable pictures, which were truly heartwarming and reassured us that Nano was in great hands. Frances's exceptional communication skills were a standout aspect of her service. She promptly responded to all our messages, and her clear and open lines of communication left no room for uncertainty. We greatly appreciated her willingness to address any concerns we had and her proactive approach to keeping us informed every step of the way. Above all, we found Frances to be extremely trustworthy. It was evident that she took her responsibilities as a dog sitter very seriously. She ensured that Nano's routine was maintained, including feeding times, exercise, and any specific care instructions we had provided. We were confident that Frances was treating Nano as if he were her own furry companion. In conclusion, we highly recommend Frances as a dog sitter. Her attentiveness, caring nature, and detail-oriented approach truly set her apart. With her exceptional communication skills and trustworthy demeanor, we were able to relax and enjoy our time away, knowing that Nano was receiving the best care possible. We will definitely be reaching out to Frances again for future dog-sitting needs and encourage others to do the same. Thank you, Frances, for your outstanding service!”
“Eva gave my very anxious pouch all the extra TLC I could hope for. Eva kept in constant communication when necessary and sent us adorable updates and photos. Couldn't recommend her more highly”

I have had Jessica taking care of Melody for a few trips now and I'm always relieved to know that Melody is in good hands when I'm gone.

It was our first time leaving since we’d adopted her, so I was a little nervous, but Charmaine made sure our cat was well taken care of and took a ton of pictures during each visit! She even brought some new toys for our cat, and was content to simple snuggle with our cat on the couch if she wasn’t in the mood to play. Thank you, Charmaine!”

About: Hi there! I have long loved being a dog mom and thought to start sitting to give myself and my own dog some extra company and fun times. I can usually take up to two additional dogs to my own. If I am able to sit for your dog, I will be working from home. However, I am not available everyday. This is why I recommend planning in advance for my availability. I have a single family home with a fenced in dog run and patio for them to play in. They are free to be in the house and not be restricted in movements. However, I do not let pets on the furniture or beds. However doggy beds are available.
“I needed a dog sitter on very short notice, and I’m so glad I found Angelica! She was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we connected. Both of my dogs took to her right away, and when I picked them up, they kept going back to her to be pet and attention, that says it all! It's clear Angelica has a genuine love for animals and a special way with them. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kiyomi was amazing with our dog. She took him for many walks, accommodated his medication schedule, played with him, fed him, and took really good care of our pup. I am so grateful we were able to find her and we will continue to use her dog sitting services! She also took so many cute pictures and it seemed like they had a wonderful day together.”
“I made a last minute request as I needed to spend time with family and didn’t know if anyone would take my request. Alicia responded right away! She was personable, professional and caring. Her and Yun met me outside to greet Waffles and our puppy connected with them right away. I was so nervous at first but they made it so easy for drop off, pick up and also updated me during the day with photos and captions. That eased my worries! Definitely would recommend them!”
About: I’ve cared for the dogs and cats of many friends and family, including my own 16 year old deaf & blind yorkie. I love all animals, and am experienced in caring for disabled pets, anxious pets, and those with lots and lots of energy. I’m currently a student in medical school, so I spend lots of time studying - perfect for home visits where I can run through my flashcards in the company of a furry friend! I also love walking around the neighborhood and going on hikes with the pets I care for! I am experienced in working with prescription diets, special needs animals, and pets of all ages. Please let me know what special considerations your pet requires!

About: I’ve been an animal person since I was 7. In our house there always been some cat who fully believed it owned the house and graciously allowed us to live in it. 4 years ago life upgraded me to the world of dogs when I started dating a guy with a big rescue pup. My Watson taught me the true meaning of loyalty, peeing a little in joy, and strategic snack theft. I’m also a registered Pasadena Humane volunteer, so your pet gets someone who knows how to handle shy pups, energetic zoomers, cuddle lovers, senior sweethearts, and every personality in between. I take safety seriously and affection even more seriously. If your dog likes people who speak fluent “treat,” “walk,” and “butt scratch,” we’ll be a great match. My job is remote with a flexible schedule that allows me to take care of my 7 yo son and your furry kids. I am almost always available to take your pet home and have a lot of possibilities to visit them in your house. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment in the green and safe neighborhood of Pasadena. I have a fenced balcony for the fresh air and very cozy, walkable surroundings.
About: I've shared my home with two to four dogs since coming to LA 15 years ago. Because I work from home, your pup gets a calm, dog-savvy human nearby all day — frequent yard breaks, play, and belly rubs instead of hours alone. I'm comfortable with puppies, seniors, medications, and high-energy dogs, and I keep my numbers small so every dog gets real one-on-one attention. I work from home on a flexible schedule, so your dog has company and supervision for most of the day — regular walks, play, and potty breaks, not long stretches alone. I offer boarding and daycare and take just one family's dog or two at a time, and I'm glad to keep your dog's normal routine for meals, naps, and bedtime. I always mark as unavailable any days I have travel or major time commitments that will keep me away from home for more than an hour or two, so they will have constant care while they're here. Your dog will have free range of my 3 bedroom home, detached studio, and very large, securely fenced backyard full of fruit trees. I don't have pets of my own right now, so your pup gets the whole space and my full attention. I'm happy to crate or set up a quiet separate area if that's what your dog is used to, and I keep things calm and low-stress. I have a doggy door for dogs who prefer to let themselves in/out at their leisure. I converted our detached 2 car garage into a recording studio, where I work, so we have the quietest place in town in the event we have to make it through fireworks or if your pet prefers quiet or isolation. Both the house and studio have their own separate HVAC systems, so they'll definitely stay comfortable. I have always slept with my own dogs, so happy to co-sleep with yours if that's what they're used to, but also glad to maintain whatever rules you generally set for them in regard to being on beds/furniture.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something I truly enjoy. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I provide plenty of love, attention, playtime, walks, fresh water, and updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I’m patient with puppies, respectful of each pet’s unique personality and routine, and committed to keeping them safe, happy, and comfortable. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I’ll make sure they feel at home and cared for like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide walks, playtime, potty breaks, feedings, and lots of one-on-one attention. I do my best to accommodate each pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I also provide photo and video updates, so you’ll always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions before every visit. I keep a clean, calm environment, closely supervise playtime, and make sure pets always have fresh water, exercise, and plenty of affection. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important trust and communication are, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout every stay or visit.
“Athene is a life saver! She was able to take my girl in such short notice! I had some last minute plans and couldn’t take my pup and this was the first time I would ever be leaving her with anyone else but as soon as I met Athene I knew my baby would be in good hands!”

Dogs are taken out every 2-4 hours for potty breaks, fresh air and to relax in the sunlight. Additionally, dogs have multiple sectioned areas within my house to roam and play. All areas provide dozens of plush toys & interactive toys for their mental stimulation & enjoyment. I train and care for dogs full time which allows me to work from home.

About: I have had many dogs of my own, cared for them as puppies into their old age. Big and small, from Golden Retrievers to Chihuahuas. I have pet sat many times for cats and dogs.

“Nataly has been walking Pixel for about a month and I can only say good things about her. Pixel is 14 1/2 to so she is labeled “handle with care”. Nataly is caring, reliable, pontual, and very responsive. I can only say good things about her and I’ll keep re-booking her as long as she has availability.”
“Dean is great. My dog was in love at our meet in greet before the first walk. I really appreciate that Dean took the time to come over the day before to meet me and my dog and connect with my dog before that first walk. The day of the first walk it was really hot and my dog just wasn’t having it. She kept heading home. It meant a lot that Dean read my dog’s energy and didn’t push her to go the full hour walk. Will be booking Dean again. Highly recommend.”

“Great with my dog Austin, felt like I left him with family the way I got daily updates and occasional photos. I’m glad I found a home away from home for my soul dog”
“It’s always been very hard for us to leave our dog, but Catherine and Albert have made it so much easier for us to travel without worry! They truly go above and beyond to make him feel like he’s just part of their family. Our dog loves playing in their amazing backyard and walking in their beautiful and safe neighborhood! They also put a lot of thought and time into making sure the pack is a good fit so everyone has fun and is comfortable! Beyond being wonderful and caring with him, they were so kind when our flight was delayed this past trip. They stepped in to watch him for an extra night without a second thought, which was such a huge relief during a stressful travel day. We’re so grateful to have found such kind, caring, reliable people who care for our pup as much as we do!”
“Janelle and her partner go above and beyond to make your pets feel happy and at home with them! My two pups had a fun and cozy time at their place. When I forgot to bring my senior dog’s bed with him, they ran out and bought him a new bed! We are beyond grateful for these two, they will care for your pets like they’re their own!”
“Yuhong is the best. She really came to our rescue last minute while we dealt with logistics related to the local wildfire. She took great care of our dog, and he was clearly happy in the daily update pics. On top of being available and reliable, Yuhong was also incredibly sensitive and caring towards our family's situation. I highly recommend her as both an awesome Rover and awesome human.”
“If you are looking for a spectacular sitter, hire Steven! He went above and beyond for our pup, keeping us posted every step of the way with great photos. Our dog has separation anxiety, but Steven handled it flawlessly by dedicating lots of quality time to him and taking him on frequent daily walks. We couldn't have asked for better peace of mind. Highly recommended!”
“To put it plain and simple, I could not have possibly had a better dog sitter. In my eyes, she could be the best in the world, and here's why... I went to SLO to wine taste with my girlfriends family. On Sat morning I got a text from Tina with a pic of my girl and she had a bloody nose. She had gotten stung by something and scratched her nose up so bad she was bleeding. Obviously this is a stressful situation for me because I'm away from my poor self destructive child. But Tina made me feel comfortable about the situation. She gave me extensive updates, pictures, and documented the whole Vet hospital experience. I felt so extremely confident in the way she handled the situation. Tina is professional and compassionate and great at communicating. My goal was to leave her the best review anyone has ever received on the Internet. I wish I could give her 10 stars, she deserves it. ”
“Booked with Eric again. He is very attentive and willing to look after my senior boy Tobby by following instructions in order to accommodate his needs. Tobby seems comfortable and well cared for during the stay, which really gave me peace of mind. Thank you so much!”
“OMG, Stephanie was wonderful. She gave me updates and pictures regarding Blair all weekend. I felt very comfortable leaving Blair with Stephanie. Very nice and friendly environment.”
“Margaret is an absolute rock star, a total gem, and she will be my go-to dog sitter from now on. She took absolutely exceptional care of my super senior Indy, handling tummy upset, medications, and even coordinating with a friend who picked up Indy for an impromptu vet visit while I was out of town. She also took exceptional care of Tato, who has a traumatic background and is still figuring out to be a dog and how to be social with other dogs. Tato blossomed under her care, cuddling with another dog for the first time during a nap and playing with other pups in her yard. She TRULY cares for dogs like they are her own, takes the cutest and most amazing pictures, and provides regular updates on their activities and care. Don't hesitate to book Margaret if you need doggy day care or boarding, she is the best!”
“I'm so thankful for the excellent care Diana provided to my dogs. She sends me daily updates, my dogs looked very happy around her, her husband and their dogs. I'm so happy that I choose Diana to care for my dogs. I heartly recommend Diana to anyone that needs to leave their dogs in the care of someone. In the future, I'll leave my dogs with Diana knowing that she'll provide the best care and they will be happy in her care.”
“Stephanie is amazing! She is so responsive and accommodating. I knew our dog was in great hands and loved that he got to spend a weekend playing with her sweet pup as well ❤️”
“We had such a great experience with Adolfo! He took care of our two dogs, Ozzy (9) and Jessie (1), for a week while we were on vacation, and we couldn’t have asked for better care. He took them on walks, played with them, made sure they were fed, and even gave them their vitamins. Adolfo also kept us updated with pictures and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was such a relief knowing our dogs were happy, safe, and being well taken care of. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing Ozzy and Jessie were in such a positive and caring place. We highly recommend Adolfo and would definitely trust him with our dogs again!”
About: Together, my partner and I have over 30 years of professional experience working with dogs. We believe great boarding is about more than just supervision. As full time trainers, we provide a safe, structured environment while getting to know each dog as an individual. From puppies and seniors to working breeds and rescue dogs, we’ve helped dogs with all kinds of personalities and training needs. Our goal is simple: for your dog to enjoy their stay and for you to feel confident they’re in experienced hands. Caring for dogs isn’t something we squeeze into our schedule, it’s what we do every day. As full time dog trainers, our days are built around the dogs in our care. Every dog receives regular exercise, enrichment, potty breaks, and plenty of individual attention in a safe, structured home environment. We believe good management creates a safe and enjoyable experience for every dog. We carefully assess each dog’s temperament and comfort level, supervise all interactions, and make thoughtful decisions about play groups and rest time. We have crates and separate spaces available when needed, and our fenced yard provides a secure place for exercise and enrichment. Our goal is for every dog to feel safe, relaxed, and excited to come back.
