“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ms. Beverly was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs while we were out of town! From the moment we met her, we felt completely comfortable leaving our pups in her care. She was kind, attentive, and treated them like they were part of her own family. She kept us updated, and it was clear our dogs were happy, well cared for, and getting lots of love and attention. Coming home to two relaxed and happy pups gave us such peace of mind. We are so grateful for the excellent care Ms. Beverly provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable pet sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💛”
“Marilyn took such good care of our pups! She sent pics and video, and they had a blast. (Even our cranky older dog haha) We were gone for 2 weeks and knew they’d be in good hands from the moment we did our meet and greet. Will definitely be bringing them back next time we need a sitter.”

Emily is very attentive to details,and sends updates and pictures…and lots of walk and play time… Boba came home clean,happy and well taken cared…. will definitely book again….

“My sweet Coco needed boarding and Tian was such an amazing host for her! He was so communicative and sent me pictures and videos throughout the night and day until pick up time, and he was very responsive to my texts, which made me feel at ease and I loved getting updates on Coco’s day. Tian is absolutely someone I would recommend, and will definitely be my go-to going forward! 😊”
“Krissy did a great job taking care of Bella. Only issue was her nose was scratched when she came home - Not sure when it happened but based on the pics Krissy sent me, likely did not happen during her watch. Either way it’s fine now! Krissy sent me 4-5 updates as per my request. Bella enjoys her time with Krissy and we will be using her services in the future. Thank you for taking care of my sweet girl!”
“Finny had such a great time with Sherry! He came home happy, tired, and honestly a little heartbroken to leave his new dog friends behind. 🐾 It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being loved and cared for like part of the family. We’ll absolutely be booking with her again!”
“We love Kyle!!!!! He was able to accommodate a last minute request while we got some work done on the house and Lofi got some awesome puppy socialization. We can’t thank you enough!!”
“This was our first time using Rover and so glad we did. Katy watched our 1 year old goldendoodle for a week and kept us to date everyday sharing pictures or videos. Sugar also got along with her other long term boarder which was great. We have already booked Katy again to watch Sugar. We trust Katy and her family with our Sugar-doodle! Thank you, Katy!”
“Angela is an amazing at caring for our skittish doggie, and she is even flexible enough to accommodate drop ins for our kitties! Can't rave enough about how good she is. She takes time to get our fur babies acclimated to things, is very patient, provides daily updates and even a "Pawgress Report" for us when the booking is complete! Simply awesome! 😃”
“It’s my very first time looking for a pet sitter because I’m always so anxious about leaving my dogs with people that I don’t know but I can’t thank Stephanie enough for taking care of my puppies! It was a great experience, my dogs had fun, played with other dogs and she was so accommodating to their needs and also to my last minute changes! I was getting daily updates and pictures too! I was comfortable because she has so many years of experience and a lot of good reviews! I can fully recommend her and I would definitely be happy to bring my dogs again! Thank you so much!!!”
“Salud was FANTASTIC with my senior dog. I know my dog really enjoyed having access to a yard and I received regular pictures which put my mind at ease. I will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Molly was great! She was responsive, kept me updated, and sent pics of my pup daily. My pup was also excited to be around other pups during her stay. Thanks, Molly!”
“Thank you Kim for taking a short notice booking and caring for my pooch! Rocko enjoyed his stay :) I think being around other dogs rejuvenated his spirit! I greatly appreciated the daily messages and pictures!!!! Definitely will you book you next time if you are available!!!”

About: I’ve always loved cats and understand that every cat has a unique personality. Whether your cat is playful and social or shy and independent, I’ll provide patient, attentive care while respecting their routine and comfort level. I’m comfortable feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats, providing companionship, and administering oral medications according to your or your veterinarian’s instructions. I also have experience caring for senior pets, so I understand the importance of being gentle, observant, and following detailed care instructions. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for until you return.
About: We’re a family of two and proud cat parents to our two beloved 10-year-old cats. Animals have always been an important part of our lives, and we understand how much love, care, and attention every cat deserves. I’ve been caring for cats since I was 10 years old and have more than 30 years of experience as a cat owner. Over the years, I’ve cared for cats with a wide range of personalities, needs, and temperaments, and have developed a deep appreciation for cats of every breed and age. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day. Whether your cat enjoys playtime, affection, quiet company, or simply having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. Our home is clean, quiet, smoke-free, and occupied only by my wife and me, creating a calm and stress-free environment for your cat. For safety and comfort, guest cats stay in their own private room, separate from our cats unless otherwise requested. Your cat will receive: • A private room for a peaceful and secure stay • Fresh food and water provided daily • Litter box cleaning and waste removal 3 times per day • Comfortable bedding, fan, and cozy resting areas • Daily monitoring, attention, and companionship • A clean, tidy, and loving home environment We know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your cat in someone else’s care.

About: Hi everyone my name is Angie and I may be new to Rover but I am not new to loving and caring for precious pups. I currently don't have any dogs living with me but prior to July 2025 I had my own fur babies since 1992. I decided this would be a wonderful way for me to get some puppy love, bring peace of mind to traveling pet parents, and make some money while providing a loving service. I have taken care of many of my friends pups along the way. Saki, Sophie, Sushi, Bodhi, Lucy, and Honey. I also occasionally foster dogs to help my friend's rescue. I would love to meet and care for your babies. My home is a safe and loving space for pups to play and have their "stay-cation"!! I work from home and will be available to be with the pet pretty much all day. Consistent time outdoors will be provided weather permitting. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to play or grab that nice patch of sunshine to nap in. I maintain a clean and calm environment.
About: I have grown up around cats my entire life! I am very familiar with different cat personalities and behaviors, from shy, independent cats to more social, playful ones. I currently have my own cat (her name is Miso☺️), which I’ve been fully caring for on my own for the past year, including feeding, litter care, playtime, and all the little daily routines that keep them happy and healthy. Over the years, I’ve also cat sat many times for friends and family. I’ve helped with everything from quick check-ins to longer visits, making sure their cats feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. While I’m not formally “professional” yet, I’m very responsible, gentle, and genuinely love being around cats. I always try to make sure they feel calm, safe, and cared for like they’re my own :)
About: I’ve had cats for over 11 years! I have had experience with cats of all ages, from kittens to older cats. From a young age I have always loved cats and was even the one feeding the strays around the neighborhood. I give the flee medicine to our cats every month and have assisted with cleaning the litter and, if necessary bathing the cats.
About: What sets me apart is my patience, attention to detail, and understanding that every cat has a unique personality. I have experience caring for anxious and shy cats, and I take the time to help them feel safe and comfortable at their own pace. I'm experienced with administering medications, maintaining both traditional and robotic litter boxes, and using systems like the Litter Genie to keep litter areas clean and fresh. I follow each cat's routine closely and provide regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your cat is receiving attentive, compassionate care while you're away.
“Zakiya was amazing! This was my first time using Rover and I couldn’t have made a better choice. She came to meet me and my babies a couple days before her stay and took the best care of them for me while I was on vacation. She provided detailed daily notes and pictures, organized my fridge, and made sure everything was clean in my apartment upon her departure. She went above and beyond! Thank you Zakiya :)”
About: I have experience working in emergency and specialty animal hospitals. I am able to work with a range of temperaments and always ensure animal safety first!
“Melisa was, in a word, AMAZING. We scheduled drop-in visits with her to keep an eye on our cat Clementine and Melisa wrote detailed updates for us and sent us a ton of photos, which we loved. We had a pee-incident on the couch that Melisa took in stride (thank you so much, again) and she really went above and beyond, helping put enzymatic cleaner on our couch so that the cat urine didn't just sit for two weeks, popping our mail inside and also keeping an eye on my plants. Stellar sitter and is 100% our go-to person from now on. Thanks again, Melisa!”
“Marquise stayed at my place to take care of my two cats while I was out of town. He had a very calm and loving demeaner and was able to coax both cats out of hiding the first time he was over, which has never happened with anyone!!! I was very grateful for the updates and happy to hear that the shy skittish cat warmed up and let him pet her. I was fully expecting the other cat to mark his territory, which he always does when I'm away, but apparently he felt comfortable enough with Marquise that he didn't pee on anything! It was so nice to know that my cats and my home were being taken care of and took a lot off my mind while I was away. I would highly recommend Marquise!”
About: I have had many dogs and I am an animal lover. I currently have one dog who is very friendly. I volunteered at the local animal shelter for a while and took dog walking classes. My daughter is studied animal science in college. I learn from her as well. I’m responsible and loving to all animals. My dogs have been very well cared for. I care for animals as if they are children and I am passionate about animal welfare. I am home all day so I have time to look after the animals. My house is very dog friendly and full of love. My yard is fully fenced and clean and full of dog toys. You will be very happy with my services and your dog will too! Hope to be a regular part of your dogs life. I look forward to the opportunity to serve you and your dogs needs. Also I want to add that I’m close to the airport so if you’re traveling from LAX I’m right on the way! It would be a great convenience! Please no dogs over 65lbs. I may occasionally go out for lunch or to get food. I spend lots of time playing and engaging with the pets here. Play time is supervised. Please set your drop off and pick up times within a one hour time frame. Be on time for drop offs and pick ups. Dogs should have a collar or harness on. Play time in my large backyard with music and toys. We do bubbles, water play for the select few who like water and lots of fetch for good exercise. I provide great pictures that can be cherished for years to come. My backyard is fully fenced.

“This was his very first time at an all-day daycare, and I was honestly pretty nervous leaving him. From the start, Shardae made everything feel so easy and reassuring. She sent thoughtful updates and photos throughout the day, and every single one showed a happy, relaxed pup who was clearly being cared for and loved. Seeing him playing and comfortable truly put my mind at ease. All I ever want is for my dog to feel safe, happy, and loved, and that is exactly what Shardae provided. Total success. I would absolutely trust her again and recommend her to anyone looking.”
“I am so grateful for Kim! Had last minute birthday plans and needed next day care. Kim was very sweet and took very good care of my fur babies! I definitely recommend and will be back!”
“Marilyn showed us the area where our dog would be while in her care. She was sweet and excited to meet Kona. We’re extremely grateful that she was able to care for our pup at such unconventional hours! Thank you for your patience and excellent communication!”
“Very happy with Max and Dex’s stay! 🐾💕 They looked sooo happy the whole time and got tons of love, attention, and playtime 😊 It made me feel so at ease knowing they were being cared for so sweetly. Thank you for taking such good care of them!”
“Sheila was so kind and inviting with our shy guy and communicative from the start. She sent pics and updates throughout the entire stay. Pickles gets a little bit of separation anxiety and Sheila gave him the calm care that he needs. She was extremely understanding when we were running late - we would love for Sheila to watch Pickles again in the future! :)”

About: I love puppies and they love me! I have a calming energy that dogs gravitate toward & the love they show me, always brightens my day. I've never owned my own dog, but I've had so many puppy nieces & nephews that I've cared for throughout life. In my photos you'll see the day a random Husky(?) showed up to my door & we just hung out all day. I'm comfortable around dogs of all kinds. Looking forward to connecting. My time is quite flexible! I work from home as a full time creative entrepreneur. I’m up early & take daily walks (sometimes multiple a day). I live by great parks near Inglewood & can be active with a playful pup. I live on the ground level of my apartment building & have space for a crate or bed for the dog's comfort. We get great sunlight & normally keep doors open to create indoor/outdoor feel. Im also open to dog sitting in your home & am wonderful with following care instructions.
About: I have experience caring for dogs 🐶 of all personalities, including feeding 🍽️, walking 🚶♀️, playtime 🎾, cuddles 🐾, and companionship ❤️. I’m comfortable with small and medium-sized dogs 🐕🐕🦺, and I always follow the owner’s instructions ✅ to keep routines consistent. I love making every dog feel happy, safe, and loved ✨🐾. I’m a stay-at-home mom 🏡, so I’m home most of the day to give dogs 🐶 walks, playtime, and in-home care.

“Kyle was incredible with my Coco! I could tell from our meet and greet that our pups would get along great. I am very selective with whom I trust my girl with, so it was nice to meet him in person prior to making final arrangements. Happy to report: he’s great! I was happy to see the photos of Coco’s day, and it was comforting knowing she was in good hands while I had to work to meet all of her demands. Coco was a happy pup and came home ready for bed! So I’d say she had time well spent. Will definitely continue to book with him!”
“Our fur baby Rosie loves visiting Beverly’s place! She gets to run around their large yard all day and play with her friends. Beverly makes sure all the dogs play well with each other. Highly recommend!”
About: I was a dog owner for 15 years; she passed away about 3 years ago. Her beds are so big and comfy I didn't want to throw them away. I had proclaimed this to be a forever dog home! Since then, I began dog sitting for friends from my church. I knew if a dog came over, I would want it to be comfortable. I enjoy learning each dog's personality and needs because all dogs are different. My friend's dog doesn't like to be pet but loves to sit next to me. I learned that different dogs have different needs and wants. I enjoy spending quality time with dogs through walks, companionship, and learning each dog's unique personality and needs. Some dogs love affection while others prefer quiet company, and I respect and adjust to what makes each dog most comfortable. Dog sitting allows me to provide attentive, loving care while giving dogs a calm and supportive environment. I am working but I make my own schedule. I would take care of your baby just like my own, We would go for a walk at least twice a day. Ill feed once or twice a day, depending on instructions. My mom {Frances} lives right next door, and she is my emergency contact. She loves dogs too. She is a great help if I need to step out for a minute. I do enjoy seeing the dog happy and comfortable, the rest of the day will consist of making that happen. Your pet will get a one on one experience. I will care your pet just like I would do my own. Again, a home away from home. When I wake up in the morning the first thing I do is take my fur buddy outside. Next is breakfast and play time if it's preferred. I look for direction from the owner on specific things to know and look for to make my fur buddy comfortable. Safety is #1. Every decision is made with safety first in mind. Second is satisfaction for the pet and the owner.
About: I have owned 2 dogs in the past, one dog for 9 years and the second dog for about 2-3 years and I'm really good at playing with them, getting their fur to shine when dirty. I always care for the dog when something seems or is wrong. Your dog will always receive love and affection from me to have the greatest time of their lives. When it comes to walking the dog, the walk is never rushed I always give the dog the time to do what they need to do, that or just get a exercise with them as we're bonding. I love all sized dogs, sizes from really small dogs to medium sized to big or really big dogs, all sized dogs all always welcomed.

“I have a 63lb gentle dog who is cautious with new people. Aileen was referred to me by someone in my neighborhood. My first impressions of Aileen was her dedication to her existing clients, her professionalism and sweet nature toward my dog. She was also very accommodating and did/does her best to fit our needs. My dogs ultimate display of comfort and excitement to see someone is her happy growls which I’ve seen her do when Aileen arrives. As much as I love having Aileen my dog does too. I’ve hired Aileen many times now and wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again.”

“Bradley and Greta LOVE Jared. We hired him to give them a mid-day break/walk while we were unavailable and he gave them so much more than we were hoping for! He not only took them on a 30+ walk around Green Lake, but he also took them to the dog park to ensure our pups were nice and tired before returning them home. Even though it was only a walk, he gave updates about his arrival/departure times, what they were doing, and how the dogs were. Our dogs were super happy and exhausted when we returned, so we know they're looking forward to seeing Jared again. We plan to use Jared for both our dog walking and house sitting needs in the future. He's our favorite sitter so far!”

“Lizette did an excellent job taking Rusty for a walk two days over the weekend, which was incredibly helpful. Considering it was last minute, Rusty is quite feisty, but she managed to hold her own with him.”
About: I've been caring for my dogs since I was just a child and have always felt a deep connection to animals. I used to do dog walking for some time and have volunteered in a grooming location as well. You can be certain your furry friend will receive the best care with me! I currently stay at home with my son so I have a pretty open schedule. In the afternoon we go for walks in our neighborhood so we'd love to bring your pup along on a walk with us! We have a front and backyard which are both enclosed with a gate. It's pretty spacious so we'd definitely have a good time. At the moment I don't have a pet of my own- we recently lost our girl due to age at 15 years old. She was such a sweet girl and we loved her dearly. We hope to adopt another one in the near future, but for now I'd like to take care of other babies. You can be confident that your dog will be provided with my best attention. Maintaining his or her routine, such as feeding schedules, will also be my top priority.
“Booked Gabrielle last min and she was quick and responsive! She was very sweet, took two (big dogs) on a solid walk and sent pics. She was easy to work with and communicated/replied quick! Will definitely book again!”
About: What sets me apart is honestly my genuine love for animals. It started when I was around 12 years old when I got my very first dog, and ever since then I completely fell in love with caring for animals. Over time, my family and I adopted more dogs. Friends and neighbors have also trusted me to personally care for and babysit their dogs over the years. Sometimes I’ll stop by throughout the day to check on their pups, feed them, play with them, and make sure they’re doing okay, while other times their dogs have stayed at my house for a few days or even a few weeks. Having so many pets has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and understanding different animal personalities and needs. I’ve also cared for many different kinds of animals growing up, including fish, hamsters, lizards, and birds, so I’ve learned a lot about caring for all types of pets. My own dogs have also had litters of puppies before, which taught me so much about caring for newborn puppies and younger dogs. Because of that, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all ages, from newborn puppies to senior dogs. I truly see animals as family, and I love making them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for. Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I already spend a lot of my time around animals and genuinely enjoy caring for them. I currently work part-time only on weekends, but my hours and availability are very flexible since I basically make my own schedule. That allows me to give pets lots of attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or just keeping them company. When caring for pets, I always focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In my home, pets are supervised, cared for closely, and treated like family in a clean and calm environment. In a client’s home, I always follow their instructions carefully and try to keep their pet’s normal routine so they can feel relaxed and comfortable while their owners are away.
About: I truly love animals and treat every pet like they’re my own. I take time to understand their personality and routine so they always feel safe and happy. I have experience with both playful puppies and gentle senior dogs who need extra care. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, or meds, I make sure they get the love and attention they deserve — and I always keep you updated with photos and messages! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine — I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals every day. I plan my schedule around walks, playtime, and check-ins so each pet gets my full attention. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks, afternoon walks, or evening cuddles, I make sure their needs always come first. Caring for pets isn’t just a job for me — it’s something I look forward to every single day. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent so they feel comfortable and secure. I follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any special instructions closely. I give them plenty of love, playtime, and attention while respecting your home and privacy. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I provide a clean, safe, and cozy space where they can relax and feel at ease. I make sure they get daily exercise, cuddles, and lots of affection — just like they would with you. My goal is to make every pet feel loved, safe, and stress-free no matter where they are.
About: I’ve started caring for others in addition to my own. I have experience caring for dogs with special needs, and of all different sizes and breeds. I am dependable, and I believe in clear communication and provide frequent updates to ensure that owners are completely comfortable knowing that their pets are safe and happy. I am currently doing self independent work so I set my own schedule where I can pet set anytime any day that I want to I will Always check fence gates before letting a dog outside. I will walk through the area the dog will stay in and check that all trash can lids are locked, no food is on the counters, and that any gates or crates set up are secure.
About: I've been caring for dogs since I was 10, looking after my own pets and neighbor's dog when they're out of town. I understand the importance of companionship and make it my mission to ensure your furry friends feel loved and never alone. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Whether it be my own or a neighbor's, l've always gone above and beyond to ensure that the animal is well taken care of. I will make sure your dog gets the specific attention and care that they need, and they have an enjoyable experience. This work goes far beyond simply watching dogs, it’s about providing consistent, attentive, and trustworthy care to dogs who are an important part of your family. I take pride in being reliable, patient, and detail oriented, making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I put into every visit. I treat every dog as if they were my own, pay close attention to their individual needs, and maintain clear, consistent communication with owners for peace of mind. Sparky is the reason behind it all. He showed me a love I can’t even fully put into words, loyal, pure, and unconditional. He wasn’t just my dog, he was my comfort, my routine, and a piece of my heart. Losing him was one of the hardest things I’ve ever gone through, and there are still moments I feel that emptiness so deeply. But at the same time, he gave my life so much meaning and showed me exactly the kind of care and love every dog deserves. Because of Sparky, I’m more patient, more understanding, and more intentional with every dog I care for. I know how much they mean to you, because I know what it feels like to love a dog with your whole heart. A part of him lives on in everything I do, in every walk, every cuddle, and every moment I spend making sure your babies feel safe and loved. I am a dedicated dog sitter with a flexible schedule and reliable transportation, allowing me to offer drop in appointments on any day that works best for you.

“Melanie was AMAZING! I am so happy to have found her. It’s always a little unsettling leaving your dog behind on vacation, but knowing she was with Melanie (and basically on vacation herself!) put us at so much ease. Zoe had so many great adventures during her 1-week stay, from pack walks in the hills to the beach and beyond. Melanie and her family treated Zoe like a member of their family, which made us so happy. Melanie was super communicative and sent photos of their adventures daily. We’ll definitely be taking Zoe back to Melanie next time we need someone to look after her!”

It was a great experience.”
