“Our girl had a WONDERFUL time at Amorn and Adam’s home! This was the most at peace I’ve felt while leaving my dog with a sitter. Their communication was amazing and the photos & videos said it all. She was so happy!”
“Nicole and a Michael are AMAZING! I’m so happy I had found them to watch my 16 week old pup and 1.5yo! I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my young puppy at a boarding facility just yet. We are so grateful finding them last minute! They have a small dog and another doodle, similar weights to mine. They also have a kitty and a couple of young kids. Leaving them with playmates and learning how to be around children and cats was a plus! We were gone for 4 nights; she was super flexible with the dates and gave us her rover first time discount! Was so nice to be on vacation and not worried about our pups and how they’re doing!! I told her she can send a lot of pics and videos and she did! ?? They were definitely in good hands and having so much fun!! She trained our little one to be on a leash too! They are right next to their apartment’s dog park and it’s great size. I left some new treats with them, and she informed me right away that our puppy had bad poops and was going to discontinue use. I highly recommend Nicole and Michael. Sweet couple!”
“We’ve used James a few times and he’s always great to work with! He sends daily updates, responds quickly and is easygoing. We’re happy to have someone we can trust to watch our dog. We recommend him and will continue to use his services so long as he’s willing.”
“Audrey loved staying with Marcelo and his wife! They kept a close eye on her the entire time and I love that they have a fenced back yard for her to run around in. Will definitely be using them again in the future!”
“Sandi did so well with Moe and Socks! They felt right at home the moment we dropped them off. Sandi is very well experienced with dogs and kept us updated with photos. She was very accommodating to our needs! Her and her husband are so friendly and very welcoming. We will definitely be boarding our pups with them in the future to come :)”
“Wow, what can I say other than I wish I found Nadege years ago!! From the get go she is super responsive & set up a meet & greet immediately. My dog Kramer was immediately comfortable and Nadege had great energy and a perfectly set up dog friendly home. Nadege was also very flexible with Kramers finicky food choices. I was gone for a week and I think she just about sent me photos daily which put me at ease, thanks Nadege!! ??”
“Title: Outstanding Care for Our Beloved Spike From the very first meeting, it was clear that Stephen and his partner, the dog sitters, were something special. Our 16 months old Spike took to them instantly. Throughout his stay, I was reassured with regular pictures and updates that not only showed me just how comfortable he was, but also how much fun he was having. It's not often you come across sitters who genuinely treat your pet as their own, but this is exactly what they did. Their thoughtful service exceeded all my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any pet parent out there seeking peace of mind while away from their furry friend. Spike is already looking forward to his next visit!”
“Nancy is the best! Once again, she gave my pup a happy and comfortable home away from home. I really appreciate her energetic, friendly demeanor. I feel great about leaving my pup with her.”
“We’re very grateful to Chan Woo and his wife for taking such good care of Rufus over the weekend. Leaving your dog with someone new can feel a little stressful, but their regular updates and photos really helped us feel at ease. Everything went smoothly, and when we picked Rufus up, he was relaxed and content for the rest of the day. We’re very glad Rufus was in their care :)”
“Alina was so wonderful. Our regular dogsitter had to cancel on us last minute. Alina came to the rescue and watched our dog for a 4 night stay. We were nervous to leave our senior dog (who has some special needs) with a brand new person. Usually we book an initial one-night stay with a sitter before doing anything more than 24 hours. It turns out we had nothing to be worried about. Alina checked in with us regularly and had very accurate descriptions of how our dog Bedu was settling in. By the end of her stay Bedu was in love. We brought home a very happy pup who was so well looked after, I can happily say she also had a little vacation herself. Alina’s residence is right next door to Petco, which was very convenient for us as we had forgotten to pack some supplies and stopped there on the way.”
“We were so happy to find Mary to watch our pup. I knew she was going to be great after meeting her and seeing her beautiful fenced in backyard. She made me feel at ease by asking all the right questions to make sure the Macy would be happy. Everything went great! We will definitely use Mary again.”
“Lilly established an instant rapport with our dog! She provided us with regular updates! She is very easy to talk to and really made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her for 12 days! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”
“Keely as fantastic with our little chiweenie, Suki ❤️ Our other caregiver arrangement fell thru and Keely accepted my last minute request quickly! Such a lifesaver! She made Suki feel right at home, was super attentive to her needs, and sent me the cutest photos and videos of her while we were away two nights. Would definitely recommend Keely to anyone who wants a trustworthy dog lover watching their fur baby and I would obviously consider having her watch Suki again! 🥳”
“Stacey was great! I had my senior dog with her for two weeks while I was out of the country and it brought me great comfort to know she was in such good hands. I got daily updates telling me how well my dog was doing along with Photos. In spite of the rain, they made it out every day and my dog left very happy. Grateful to have found Stacey!”
“Angie was fantastic! She sent so many pictures and updates throughout Churro’s stay which she knew was so important to us. We felt very comfortable leaving our boy in her care. She was super thorough and detail-oriented at the meet & greet which we really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Angie!!!”
“I got super lucky when I chose Kristina and the family to watch my puppy while I went to Boston. They took great care of her and kept me updated every step of the way. I look forward to going back to them!”
“Nataliia was a wonderful sitter for my boy, Mick. She took him in as a last minute booking, and when I dropped him off I could tell he was in a home where dogs were very loved! She sent me a picture each day and Mick looked so relaxed in each one. I will definitely be going back to Nataliia (and her husband, Igor) in the future. I would highly recommend them for your furbabies. ??”
“Fantastic sitter! They created a comforting and safe environment that made my dog feel right at home (essentially a home away from home). We received daily updates/photos which was much appreciated as well! Definitely will be rebooking when we have to travel again 😊”
“Barbara was wonderful with my dog, Mila. Mila wakes up very early and needs extra attention, and Barbara was patient, caring, and attentive to her needs. I felt comfortable knowing Mila was in good hands. I highly recommend Barbara to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter.”
“I highly recommend booking with Mandie S. We were staying in Burbank where pets were not welcome and I am so glad I was able to book at Mandie's. I knew Celeste and Rocky really enjoyed their stay because Mandie sent me videos of them wrestling in the morning, the way they always do at home. Celeste has allergies and Mandie knew just what to do because her Shit-Zu also has allergies. Mandi gave me a bag of special hypo-allergenic dog food to try at home to see if it will help Celeste as much as it helped her dog! Now that is going above and beyond what most sitters would do! Communication was prompt as was drop off and pick up.”

“I had to take a last minute trip, and thankfully Caroline was available! My boys love spending time with her, and I feel secure knowing she is the one at home taking care of them. She is great!”
“Kelly is absolutely phenomenal! We had a great experience. She is extremely communicative, sends photos and updates with every visit, and really takes the time to give my sweet cat the love and attention she needs. I didn’t have to worry about at all because I knew Kelly was taking wonderful care of my cat. I will definitely be booking her again. We are so grateful to have found her!”
About: I grew up mostly with dogs until my twenties. I found a small kitten in my yard. Three Cats later I was a Cat Mom. A Foster Mom helped me to learn how to bottle feed and care for kittens. I fell in love. I’ve learned to administer medications as well. Most of my experience comes from my own cats, and sitting for friends.
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful. Not only did she take wonderful care of our kids, she also took great care of myself! It was my first time using the APP and she explained everything and answered all my questions. She kept us updated everyday, helped keep my mind at ease to help us enjoy our vacation, and even went above and beyond to make our home so welcoming and comfortable when we returned. I do look forward to booking Samantha again when we go out of town.”
“My cat took to Elizabeth the minute she walked in (and my cat is very shy!) I felt more than safe knowing she was coming over every day to be her!! Also, bonus, she takes the MOST amazing pics!!! 😻”
“Yvonne took amazing care of my kitties while I was away and they absolutely adored her! She’s an exceptional cat sitter, great communicator and I look forward to calling on her again the next time I have to leave town!”
“Naomi is terrific and has a great, calm energy about her. Kept us informed with pictures and texts and our pup seemed to love his time with her. Will definitely be calling on her in the future.”
About: I have my own dogs that I love very much and I will love your dogs the same. I also have helped take care of my friend’s dogs in the past so I have years of experience taking care of dogs. I also have open availability to take care of dogs. I can also support very active dogs which not a lot of people can do. I am currently available for full time pet care. I am mainly focusing on dog sitting at owner’s home or strictly just dog walking for any hours needed. I will dog sit at owner’s home for now. My current living situation will not allow for more dogs. I will gladly spend a few hours at owner’s home if that is needed.
“Genesis is a wonderful cat sitter! She’s helped me with last min requests and is very responsive and reliable! She takes great photos and your kitty cat will be well fed and played with :) Thanks again!”
“Dayna is absolutely wonderful! She is so kind and always takes the time to play and engage with our pet. It’s so clear how much she truly cares. She also takes wonderful photos and is thorough in her updates. We could not ask for more. ♥️”
“Jill was INCREDIBLE. This was my first time using rover so I was nervous but she made this process so easy and I wasn't worried at all. She's easy to reach, didn't have any difficulty folllwing the many directions I gave her and just over all awesome!! I will definitely be booking Jill again. Thank you so much 💕”
“Katherine was the absolute best! So kind and caring. I knew our 2 cats were in great hands. The daily photos of the furry babies always made me happy and they looked so happy that she was there with them. We have definitely found our go to cat sitter :)”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats for years, starting in college when I regularly walked and cared for my roommate’s American Eskimo. I adopted my own cat six years ago. since she’s meant to be the only child, and I just love cats, I decided to spend some time with the cats who don’t have a family yet :) I now volunteer weekly at Perry’s Place in North Hollywood, where I socialize cats and kittens and help potential adopters find their match. I also have hands-on experience fostering weaned kittens and administering oral medication, so I’m comfortable with pets who need extra care. I currently work from home and will have a job break in august. I’ll be available in the afternoons during the week and on the weekends. I will regularly have a lot of holiday availability as I tend to stay in town. Please don’t hesitate to reach out! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your pet’s existing routine as closely as possible to minimize stress: same feeding schedule, same walking routes, same rules. I double check that doors and gates are locked, keep an eye out for anything that could be a hazard, and never leave a pet unsupervised in an unsafe situation. I will keep in close contact with you throughout the visit, sending photo updates and flagging anything unusual right away, whether it’s a health concern or just a change in behavior. For cats, I’m attentive to litter box needs, fresh water, and any signs of stress or hiding. For dogs, I make sure walks and any yard time are secure and supervised
“Dea's love for animals is so obvious through the care, attention, and updates she sends. By the end of the week, she and my cat were great friends, and that's even after having to give him meds daily. I know in the future my kitty is in great hands now that Dea and him are pals.”
“Catherine was great! Instructions were followed and we got multiple videos and photos of the cats during her visits. Our normally shy cats warmed up to Catherine almost immediately, which is a great sign.”
About: I genuinely love Pete’s and especially cats. Each are different and will react differently, so I like to build a relationship and trust with cats. They rule the household and I’m there to make them feel cared for a comfortable. You have to respect their space
“Gabriela is a great catsitter and her responsiveness and flexibility were a huge help while we were away for two weeks for the holidays. She will continue to be our first choice catsitter for our cat Riddle!”

“We needed day care for a couple of days during a trip from the Bay Area to Southern California, and I’m so happy I found Amorn and Adam to look after our senior toy poodle, Jubilee. During her stay, they sent lots of photos on her progress and interactions with other dogs, helping to give me peace of mind that all was fine. They demonstrated such kindness and understanding towards our little one, who shakes nervously in unfamiliar environments. They adapted to her shy-ish ways, let her be and gave her a comfy blanket on which to sit or lie. As quickly as the second day when handing her to Adam, Jubilee didn’t even shake, she was actually quite calm, and that was amazing. I am 110% pleased with their services. Thank you so much Amorn and Adam!”
“Kieran is one of the kindest and most patient sitters I’ve met. She took incredible care of my dog and helped me understand his behavioral changes when he’s away from me. It wasn’t just dogsitting, it was a learning experience for Louie and me!! Thank you Kieran!!!”
“Absolutely wonderful!! Feel so blessed to have found someone as amazing and caring as Nicole??. I was so worried about finding a new pup sitter I felt safe with after the woman I used for many years decided to move out of state. Nicole responded to my rover inquiry right away, her communication before and during my stay was excellent. Thank you for being so kind and accommodating!! You truly went above and beyond to make sure my girl was happy and taken care of during her stay. Nicole made my little Pom feel right at home w her family on the first day. She updated me all day long with photos of my baby eating, napping and just hanging out. I felt at ease knowing she was receiving so much love and attention. I will absolutely become a return client for future doggy daycare or overnight sitting whenever your available Nicole?Thank you for taking such good care of Carmel.??”
“Mandy is always so great with Nami! She sends updates throughout the day so we never have to worry and she makes sure to spend lots of time cuddling and playing with Nami 🐾”
“Mary is absolutely wonderful. Dogs are her passion, and she immediately bonded with my border collie, Randy. She has a beautiful home and a huge backyard for doggie playtime or just hanging out. Mary’s adorable cocker spaniel Molly is super friendly, and she and Randy became fast friends. I will definitely contact Mary for more dog sitting!”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a little kiddo. Got my start taking care of the neighborhood dogs . I currently work with dogs on weekly basis . Providing a safe happy place for them to stay is a priority . As well as maintaining their day to day schedule . Like their feeding schedule , walks , administering any medications and more ! Dogs/Pets are my daily and weekly . I have extra time to offer another pup who may need a safe happy place to stay while their parents are away ! I have a private fenced front yard as well as a private secured fenced backyard. Pups are never left unattended . I have an amazing senior yellow Labrador named Fonzie who is great with all dogs . I work around the clock for any pup that is in my care , That is a priority ! It’s very important to me that each pup feels like it’s their home away from home !
About: Growing up in Chicago I've had dogs/cats my whole entire life. Moving to LA made it unavailable for me to have my own anymore. I can exercise with dogs. I do runyan canyon atleast 3 times a week. I work from home and enjoy getting out every two hours for 30 minutes and having a lil buddy to hang out with during the day while I work. I broke both of my legs last year in a pair of motorcycle accidents so I really have a new appreciation for walking haha. I'd say your dog and I are doing each other favors. Your pup is in good hands with me. I keep it simple and I'll do what you need me to do with your dog.
“Sandi is the best! Orion is very anxious in new places with new people but she got so excited when she saw Sandi again. I’m glad she can have a new home away from home.”
“Ofelia was a great sitter for our dog Benny. She was communicative and provided updates. Benny seemed to be happy to come back and it’s great knowing he was loved and cared for!”
“I felt the environment was very peaceful for jubilee. I could tell when we were together that she was not anxious. Thank you so much! Universal Studios is one of my families’s favorite places. We will be back nice to have a place for Jubilee!”
About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs in Los Angeles. I have cared for many breeds, ages, and personalities, including dogs with medical needs such as English Bulldogs. What sets me apart is the level of care and love I give. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with patience, attention, and genuine affection. I carefully follow routines, special instructions, and health needs. Our building has a private dog park, which makes potty breaks and daily walks easy and safe. Dogs get regular outdoor time in a secure space without busy streets, helping them feel relaxed, comfortable, and at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am always at home. I do not work outside the house, so I am able to give dogs full attention throughout the day. I am available every day for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. Dogs are never left alone for long periods and always have someone watching over them. I enjoy having dogs around and caring for them is part of my everyday life. I care for dogs in my home with lots of love, patience, and attention. I make sure they always have fresh food and water, follow their routines, and take them out for potty breaks and walks three to four times a day. I also spend time playing with them and giving them affection so they feel calm and happy. My building is quiet, dog friendly, and safe. It has a private dog park, which allows dogs to go outside easily without walking on busy streets. This creates a relaxed and secure environment for potty breaks, exercise, and optional interaction with other dogs if they enjoy it. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and truly at home.
“Natasha took such great care of my pup and sent a ton of videos/photos during the day. She was very communicative leading up to the stay and throughout the visit. I will definitely be using her again to look after my dog!”
“Adam was an awesome dog-sitter! He was responsive, accommodating, and polite. He even sent us photos of Daisy throughout the day, which reassured us that she was doing okay. I would highly recommend Adam to other pet owners!”
About: Highly rxperienced dog’s professional with big and small breeds. Training and behavioural correction, socialisation, and new puppy’s adaptation to new family. Consultation on feeding and fitness regime. I am currently staying at home due to moving to a new place and available to babysit and walk your dog at any time convenient to the owner.

About: Hi there! My name is Jennifer and I am a lover of animals and nature. I am very attentive to the animals that I work with and I am highly sensitive to the needs of those around me, including animals. I grew up having a variety of pets, including cats, dogs, fish, snakes, and hamsters. I currently only have one pet, a bearded dragon (who lives in a tank). I have several years of experience working as a pet groomer's assistant for a mobile pet grooming business, where I worked daily with dogs and the occasional cat. I am happy to come to your four-legged friend for dog walking and check-ins, or they can come to my home for boardings. Thank you for visiting my profile and I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I am a part-time student so I have plenty of time to give attention to your beloved best friend! I am home most days of the week and only out for short periods of time to run errands. My schedule is fairly flexible. For boardings: I have a front yard & a back yard, however the front yard will only be used if your pet is leashed so as to not risk them getting out. The backyard is escape-proofed for even very small dogs, and your pet will never be left outside unsupervised. The backyard is big enough for playing fetch & potty breaks. I typically do not leave any animals alone in my home for more than a couple hours at a time, in case I need to run an errand. For sittings: I am very courteous as to keep your home in the condition that it was left in upon arrival. I will put items where I found them & treat your pets and your home with the same care & respect that I would give my own pets & home!
“Peter is communicative, gentle, and obviously really loves dogs. He's taken care to make sure that there is a safe and secure backyard to his house, and we felt confident leaving our elderly and shy younger dog there even though we had just met. Thanks, Peter!”
“Elaine and Marcelo took great care of our Milo today! Three walks and lots of attention. They have a great home and yard for an active dog. They are easy to work with and provide plenty of updates.”
“I can’t speak highly enough about Chan and the care he had for our pup, Otis. Chan was extremely communicative prior to our first meeting and made us & Otis feel very comfortable. During Otis’ stay, Chan was great about sending us photos and updates and you could tell Otis was having a blast. It was great to see him getting along with Chan’s dog as well & he was wiped by the time I picked him up, which is exactly what we wanted! 10/10 would recommend Chan watching your pup.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and absolutely love the joy and comfort they bring. No fur baby is too big or too small to accompany me on my neighborhood walks. I look forward to becoming your pets new friend! I’m a freelance assistant with a ton of free time to cater to your pets needs. I have the flexibility to be available for you in the morning, afternoon or night time. I live in a secure apartment building with no children or other pets in my home. I have a park nearby where everyone walks their dogs, water and food bowl on hand if needed and ready to accommodate each and every one of their needs.
About: Hi! I’m Liz, a TV producer by day and a lifelong animal lover at heart. Before working in television, I spent several years in the pet care industry at a high-end pet supply store that specialized in celebrity dog walking and pet services. During that time, I gained experience handling dogs of all breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I also worked part-time as a groomer and had the opportunity to learn dog behavior and training techniques from a highly respected professional trainer. Beyond my professional experience, I’ve also cared for my own senior dog through illness, which taught me the importance of patience, attention to detail, and compassionate care. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. While my career eventually took me into television production, I’ve missed spending time with animals and am excited to get back to doing something I genuinely love. Whether your dog needs a long walk, extra playtime, medication support, or simply a caring companion while you’re away, you can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care. I currently work part-time, which gives me availability after 1:00 PM on weekdays and most weekends. As a freelance TV producer, my schedule can vary depending on the project, but I do my best to keep my calendar updated and communicate availability clearly. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and plenty of fresh air. Inside, pets are treated like family and will have a comfortable, calm environment with lots of attention and affection.

“Isela was great! She walked our large, willful goldendoodle for 2 weeks and did a wonderful job at keeping her moving. She was professional, on time and friendly, and we would highly recommend her to other dog owners!”
“Emily was delightful. I will be booking her again! I scheduled her to walk my 5-year-old Aussie for 10 days after I had surgery, and I couldn't walk him myself. He can be a handful, especially if another dog barks at him, and he had never been walked by a "stranger". She handled him very well and he returned home happy and tired. Emily was never late, texted me a few minutes before arriving, and sent photos of them along the walk. She is great and I can highly recommend her. Thank you Emily!!”
“You’re literally the best and it warms my heart how Harley excitedly greets you every-time she sees you. Thank you for making her walks fun and educational at the same time. I couldn’t have found anyone else better than you. 💕”
About: I grew up around animals: cats, a dog, even two gerbils. I also pet-sat for my neighbor while I was in high school. I am lucky now to have a crazy lovebug orange kitty named Mr. Buttons. He sadly has no interest in being around dogs or other cats, so I have to look outside our home to satisfy my love for them. I am as trustworthy as they come, and I believe pet care should come above all else. I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible and I'm amenable to any kind of arrangement for caring for your pets. I'm typically free on weekdays, but as I said, my schedule changes and there are always exceptions. My priority is to build trust both with the pet and owner. I follow all instructions laid out to the T and ensure the pet feels comfortable and safe in my presence. I also respect the pet owner's home by leaving it exactly as I found it. It's vitally important to me that your pet feels loved even when you are away, so I never skimp out on pets or cuddles when they are desired.
“Adam is AMAZING! our dogs love him and we are so appreciative of how great he cares for them. He has great patience, communicates and goes above and beyond every single time. Hands down the best walker the boys have ever had. Thanks Adam!!!!”
“Found David last minute! He is flexible, dependable, and can follow instruction’s. He treats my dog like his own and trust him with his knowledge and care for pets!”
“Joselyn is great with both of my dogs, who have very different temperaments. I have one rambunctious puppy and one rescue who is afraid of everything and they both enjoy their time with Joselyn. She is definitely able to handle a diverse range of dogs. Thank you for making our travels easier!”
About: I provide personalized attention for each dog, enrichment activities that give mental stimulation through play, dog-friendly outings, and of course safety always comes first! :) I’m an actor looking for part time work. I sometimes have weeks off when I’m preparing for my next job. Working with animals felt like the right job for me. I always respect your home and I know safety is very important when inviting a stranger in to take care of a pet as they are family. My goal is to ensure trust!
“Erick has been great with Lilith! Last week was our first week with Erick as our new walker and he’s done great getting Lilith comfortable with him. He is great at communicating with me and even is thinking in advance as the temps rise to make sure we have a plan for midday walks this summer! I deeply appreciate him thinking about my dogs health and wellbeing like that!”
“This review is LONG overdue! Elizabeth has been providing weekly walks for my Frenchie for over a year (maybe longer) and she is amazing! Elizabeth is so caring, she takes great care of my pup and she is comfortable giving him medications when needed. My dog has a spine issue (IVDD) and Elizabeth has been so helpful in carefully caring for him during a flare. She’s flexible and understanding when/if my schedule changes and my dog adores her. My neighbors have even commented on how great Elizabeth is with my dog and how she takes her time walking with him, playing and giving him love. I’m so grateful to have found Elizabeth on Rover!”
About: I have had cats and dogs and mice and fish my whole life, and have been many people's go-to consultant for care and advice, and for taking care of their pets when they're out of town. I am one of those people that folks say have "a way with animals". Always have, even when I was a toddler. I can administer medications and injections, help with puppy training, and bring your shy pet out of his or her shell. I rescued my own kitties when they were only a week old and syringe and bottle-fed them and reared them up to be sturdy upright feline citizens of the world. I'm good with the "difficult" cases, and a gentle loving companion to the seniors. I do this because I adore and feel a bond with all animals and creatures of all kinds. :) I am available for morning and mid-day walks and drop-ins, and some evening walks depending on the day, and evening drop-ins most days of the week. I'll dote on your pets as if they are my own, and am happy to follow their routines and rituals and also bring a little novelty and fun to their day.
“Catherine was very prompt in her service and was on time for the services I requested. She provided many photos to help me feel at ease that my dog was being well taken care of! She was consistently professional and kind. My dog instantly took to her and could tell she was a safe person to be around. I plan to book Catherine again in the near future and would trust her with my dog!”
About: I grew up raising animals (big and small) in Texas and when I moved to LA for work, I started to take care of animals for friends and colleagues. If I can give a pet owner peace of mind their fur baby will be taken care of, plus have the joy and being with that animal, that’s a win-win I work from home as a freelance creative and have plenty of time and energy to care for animals. I love them so much, it really doesn’t feel like a job. It’s wonderful to care for them and help pet owners have peace of mind their fur babies are in good hands Every pet reacts differently to new people, and every home has their own routines and preferences. I’ve always found if you show respect to an animal and what they’re used to, you’ll bond with them and make them feel safe. I’m very used to every client having different needs, there’s no “one size fits all” approach. I live in the first floor of an apartment with a community yard and I have a patio with grass for quick potty breaks. I enjoy Long walks in my Valley Village neighborhood which is very safe, and I love walking dogs multiple times a day if needed

My name is Shayla, and I’ve been caring for pets professionally since 2012, including working closely with celebrity clients and their beloved animals — many of whom required special attention, medical care, patience, and individualized routines. I understand how important it is to trust someone not only with your pets, but with the comfort and safety of your home I provide loving, reliable pet care with a calm and attentive approach, and I’m happy to accommodate unique schedules, routines, medications, and special requests. In addition to pet sitting, I also offer dog walking, overnight care, house sitting, and companionship visits. ✨ What sets me apart: I create a safe, low-stress, loving environment where pets can feel comfortable, secure, and cared for like family. My experience ranges from energetic puppies to senior pets needing gentle patience and support. 🐾 Special experience with: ✔︎ Senior pets & puppies ✔︎ Special-needs and disabled pets ✔︎ Administering medicine ✔︎ Anxiety-prone pets & separation anxiety ✔︎ Maintaining routines for comfort and stability ✔︎ Providing attentive, one-on-one care I know every pet has their own personality and needs, and I genuinely love taking the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I also really love photography and sending you videos/photos throughout the day! I'm very flexible with hours, and I will always be very communicative about my schedule so you are kept informed. I spend every day taking care of animals, and am always flexible with client needs! I've been entrusted with many high-profile clients and am always respectful of others' homes, pets, and belongings. I treat every home and animal as if it were my own, with the utmost care, respect and love!
“I reached out around 8:30 at night looking for a last minute walk, and he responded right away and was able to come that same evening. He showed up on time, was really friendly, and did a great job with my anxious dog. I was a little worried since my dog has been having a hard time lately, but he was so patient with him. When they got back, my dog seemed so much happier and more relaxed. I really appreciated how responsive and reliable he was, and I would definitely book with him again.”
“We booked Jordan to walk our 2 big boys, Parson and Ellis as we ourselves were temporarily unable to do so. Jordan really managed to bond with the boys and they very much enjoy their long morning walks with him. Can definitely recommend booking Jordan!”
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was little and have been around them my entire life. I grew up with a Rottweiler, a Lab, and two Goldendoodles, so I’m pretty comfortable with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I worked at a veterinary office for a little over a year, have helped friends with training, and am constantly dog sitting for people in my life because I genuinely love being around dogs! I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, so my goal is always to make sure your pup feels safe, happy, and well cared for🫶🏼 I also live with a sweet large breed (our foster that became our family🤍) so I’m very comfortable with bigger, stronger dogs and understand the importance of patience, consistency, and reading body language. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine. I currently work part-time on weekends, so I have plenty of flexibility during the week for walks. Spending time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, so caring for them feels like a natural part of my day. When caring for pets, I always try to stick closely to their usual routine since I know consistency can make a big difference. Every dog is different, so I pay attention to their personality, energy, and body language to make sure they feel safe and comfortable. During walks, safety is always my priority, but I also want them to have fun, get good exercise, and feel cared for. I’m also big on communication and happy to send updates and photos so owners feel comfortable too
“Dea is extremely attentive to my fur baby. Shes even been helping her with loose leash walking! She sends videos and photos while I’m at work and it always brings a smile to my face :) I recommend Dea to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable dog walker!”
About: From my sister's dog that I practically trained as a kid (thanks to dog training TV shows and videos), to my roommate's sweet kitten, and my own childhood dog, so much of my life has been shaped and defined by the animals I surround myself with. I became a go-to sitter and walker for neighbors and friends. I work part-time, so I'd love to fill the other time with some amazing pets! I have a few weekdays free as well as weekends! I love giving animals the attention and love they deserve! I'll play with them and give them quality time that they want and need! Tell me their favorite things and I'll accommodate!

“Nicole and a Michael are AMAZING! I’m so happy I had found them to watch my 16 week old pup and 1.5yo! I didn’t feel comfortable leaving my young puppy at a boarding facility just yet. We are so grateful finding them last minute! They have a small dog and another doodle, similar weights to mine. They also have a kitty and a couple of young kids. Leaving them with playmates and learning how to be around children and cats was a plus! We were gone for 4 nights; she was super flexible with the dates and gave us her rover first time discount! Was so nice to be on vacation and not worried about our pups and how they’re doing!! I told her she can send a lot of pics and videos and she did! ?? They were definitely in good hands and having so much fun!! She trained our little one to be on a leash too! They are right next to their apartment’s dog park and it’s great size. I left some new treats with them, and she informed me right away that our puppy had bad poops and was going to discontinue use. I highly recommend Nicole and Michael. Sweet couple!”
“We’ve used James a few times and he’s always great to work with! He sends daily updates, responds quickly and is easygoing. We’re happy to have someone we can trust to watch our dog. We recommend him and will continue to use his services so long as he’s willing.”
“Sandi did so well with Moe and Socks! They felt right at home the moment we dropped them off. Sandi is very well experienced with dogs and kept us updated with photos. She was very accommodating to our needs! Her and her husband are so friendly and very welcoming. We will definitely be boarding our pups with them in the future to come :)”
“Title: Outstanding Care for Our Beloved Spike From the very first meeting, it was clear that Stephen and his partner, the dog sitters, were something special. Our 16 months old Spike took to them instantly. Throughout his stay, I was reassured with regular pictures and updates that not only showed me just how comfortable he was, but also how much fun he was having. It's not often you come across sitters who genuinely treat your pet as their own, but this is exactly what they did. Their thoughtful service exceeded all my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any pet parent out there seeking peace of mind while away from their furry friend. Spike is already looking forward to his next visit!”
“Alina was so wonderful. Our regular dogsitter had to cancel on us last minute. Alina came to the rescue and watched our dog for a 4 night stay. We were nervous to leave our senior dog (who has some special needs) with a brand new person. Usually we book an initial one-night stay with a sitter before doing anything more than 24 hours. It turns out we had nothing to be worried about. Alina checked in with us regularly and had very accurate descriptions of how our dog Bedu was settling in. By the end of her stay Bedu was in love. We brought home a very happy pup who was so well looked after, I can happily say she also had a little vacation herself. Alina’s residence is right next door to Petco, which was very convenient for us as we had forgotten to pack some supplies and stopped there on the way.”
“Lilly established an instant rapport with our dog! She provided us with regular updates! She is very easy to talk to and really made us feel comfortable leaving our dog with her for 12 days! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”
“Stacey was great! I had my senior dog with her for two weeks while I was out of the country and it brought me great comfort to know she was in such good hands. I got daily updates telling me how well my dog was doing along with Photos. In spite of the rain, they made it out every day and my dog left very happy. Grateful to have found Stacey!”
“Angie was fantastic! She sent so many pictures and updates throughout Churro’s stay which she knew was so important to us. We felt very comfortable leaving our boy in her care. She was super thorough and detail-oriented at the meet & greet which we really appreciated. Would absolutely recommend Angie!!!”
“I got super lucky when I chose Kristina and the family to watch my puppy while I went to Boston. They took great care of her and kept me updated every step of the way. I look forward to going back to them!”
“Fantastic sitter! They created a comforting and safe environment that made my dog feel right at home (essentially a home away from home). We received daily updates/photos which was much appreciated as well! Definitely will be rebooking when we have to travel again 😊”
“Could not be happier with my experience! They are extremely genuine and fun to work with. My two year old German Shepherd seemed very happy and healthy when we picked her up. Will definitely be reaching out again in the future.”
“Aimee, Earl and Toby are AWESOME!!!! My normal sitter had an emergency and I had to travel so I reached out. They were so kind and accommodating and we scheduled a quick meet and greet right away. Goldie had a blast and feel asleep as soon as she got in the car. Thank you for being amazing. I will definitely book with them again.”
About: I provide personalized attention for each dog, enrichment activities that give mental stimulation through play, dog-friendly outings, and of course safety always comes first! :) I’m an actor looking for part time work. I sometimes have weeks off when I’m preparing for my next job. Working with animals felt like the right job for me. I always respect your home and I know safety is very important when inviting a stranger in to take care of a pet as they are family. My goal is to ensure trust!
“Lesli was absolutely wonderful! Not only did she accommodate my sudden flight delays and cancellations—which extended Daisy’s stay a full night and day— but she also went above and beyond to ensure that I knew my dog was well taken care of. She gave Daisy her daily prescribed medicine and made sure to keep me updated on her healing ankle wound (which I was very anxious about). Daisy got to play in the yard, do puzzles, and of course got lots of snuggles. And in turn, I was sent lots of pictures and videos, and knew that if I messaged, Lesli would reply promptly. Will definitely rebook with her in the future!”
“Best boarding experience my pup has ever had! He’s not exactly the easiest boy to handle given how energetic he is, but after our initial meet and greet with Ashlee I had 0 concerns. She told me about the dog rescue organization she created so she definitely will give your pup the care and attention they need. She also took my dog on pack walks and long hikes around Runyon Canyon! She has so much space on her fenced off property and the sweetest dogs of her own that all played well with my pup and helped keep him busy! I genuinely believe he had a better time than I did while I was away. He came home cuddly and so tired so I know he had a blast! Would recommend her to all of my friends and everyone else reading this”
“My dogs loved staying at Lenny’s. The moment we arrived I knew we had chosen the right place for them to stay - the yard is beautiful and well-secured, the house is very nice, and Lenny + his partner are truly wonderful people. Thank you again!”
“Peter and Duffy are sincerely the Universe’s gift to mankind. Beautiful person, beautiful dog whisperer and friend …. Can’t emphasize enough how much a puppy / doggy oasis his stay is …..you were beyond pleased !!”
“Hershey had a wonderful time staying with Nayira and her family! We were updated daily with her well being and all the pics showed all smiles. Would reach out again for future sitting needs as I am happy with the care, communication, and enrichment our Hershey received during our time away.”
“Tyler was absolutely amazing during his week with my 9 yr old, but still high energy, Riley. He's very clearly a dog lover to his core and my little girl warmed to him immediately. He was very responsive, kept me updated w photos and stories all week, and each showed my baby happy as could be. We won't hesitate to call on Tyler next time I'm out of town.”
“This was my very first time using Rover and it was the longest time I had ever been away from my fur baby. I was very nervous to leave Sadie with a complete stranger in this big city for almost a week. I found Elena and her reviews were wonderful. I contacted her and she replied almost immediately. We set up a meet and greet prior to my departure date. Elena was very sweet, accommodating, and Sadie warmed to her almost instantly. I immediately felt confident about leaving Sadie in her hands. During drop off, Sadie was excited to see her new friend. Elena welcomed Sadie warmly as if she were her own and was attentive to her every need. She played with Sadie outside, took her on regular walks, and even cared for her allergies. We communicated daily and she sent regular updates with photos and video. Elena went above and beyond anything I could have asked for. I’m so grateful to Rover for helping me find not only a loving place for my Sadie but also a new friend. I will be using her again and will absolutely refer her to others!”
