About: I boarded and walked dogs in Los Angeles for three years, so I'm comfortable with most breeds and temperaments. My secret weapon? Bone broth ice cubes—they're a constant hit! My sister-in-law is a professional dog trainer, and I've learned a ton from her. I'm happy to reinforce your pup's existing training so routines stay consistent. Plus, with two high-energy, playful dogs of my own, your pup will have built-in best friends and a fenced yard to zoom around in all day. As long as your pup is dog friendly this will be a paradise. Ready to book a meet-and-greet? Send me a message—I'd love to meet your pup and show you the yard! 🐾 I work from home, so I'm around all day for potty breaks, belly rubs, and playtime. Breakfast is served around 9 AM, dinner at 5 PM—routine keeps pups happy! Depending on the weather, we'll either hit the trails for a morning hike or skip straight to zoomies in our fenced yard. Afternoon? More yard time, tug-of-war, or just napping at my feet while I work. Evenings are for winding down with cuddles. Safety is my top priority. Our yard is completely fenced six foot high with no gaps. The dogs will stay outside unless it’s cold or rainy. Inside, I keep a clean (tho covered in fur), dog-friendly space with water always available and hazardous items well out of reach. There are two cats inside so I do need to know if your dog is or isn’t cat friendly. I know dog body language from my years of boarding, so I can spot stress or overstimulation before it becomes an issue. If any pup needs a break, I have quiet spaces set up for alone time. I also require updated vaccines and am comfortable giving oral medications if needed. With two friendly resident dogs, I carefully manage introductions and group play to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable.
“awesome sitter! I would highly recommend her. She cares about the animals, goes the extra mile and is very reasonably priced. I'm sure my pup will love to come back as many times as necessary!”
“This was our first time using the Rover service and Mark did not disappoint us. In the past we have used a great local kennel but due to concerns about the horrible canine virus circulating in several states last year we decided to try something different this trip. We paid a little more than we normally would have, but our dogs were less stressed due to the calmer environment (no other dogs, did not have to be crated at night) and the loving attention provided by Mark. Mark was great at sending daily updates and pics via messaging throughout the stay so that we could see how our pups were doing. I’m sure Mark stays pretty booked due to his loving care but we would definitely consider using his service again for futures needs, assuming he is available.”
“Onrae was amazing! He met with us two consecutive days prior to the stay for a meet and greet to calm our fears of a first stay but a long stay for our sweet boy. He responded during the long stay with pictures and videos to let us know how our dog was doing. He was timely and very responsive and accommodating. Will certainly use him again!”

“Marissa has watched Hera 3 times now and it has always gone great, my dog always seems to have lots of fun with hers. Marrisa has been very accommodating with last minute plans of mine or changes to my schedule and I know my dog is happy and safe with her. I have no doubt I’ll be contacting her again the next time I go away without my dog.”

“As much as I tried, I couldn't get Cosmo to spill the beans about his stay with Wren. But I had the distinct impression that he enjoyed it. It appears that Wren and her husband enjoyed having him there. Why else would they have expressed the desire to clone him? The photos she sent were appreciated.”

“Esmeralda and her family took very good care of our Spider. She sent us some photos and updates to stay connected which we really appreciate. She was also available with short notice and we would definitely let Spider stay with her again. When we arrived for pickup, Spider was relaxing in his bed in the living room, very calm and obviously very comfortable at Esmeralda's house. :) Excellent care”


About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, I’ve watched big dogs like pit bulls to tiny little shi tzu’s. While I don’t have professional experience, I know a lot about dogs and I’m very gentle and tending to an owners needs. I’ve been trusted by many family members to watch and walk their dogs and have received nothing but positive feedback. I truly have a heart for dogs and am motivated to make them happy. I’m working part time due to my full time college schedule, so I have a lot of time to walk dogs or pet sit them while you are away at work! I’m looking to make some extra money to afford studying dental hygiene at UNM. I get out of class at about 2:30pm every weekday, and after that I’m free. I live in an apartment with many huge grass patches for dogs to run around, along with a dog park on the property. I also have a patio for them to play, and a huge crate for my own dog which any dog could use if needed. I’m very good with instructions, because I’m picky myself when finding a dog sitter.
“Christina was great! She kept us updated throughout our pups stay. Bree had a great time with her other boarder pup. Christina was very professional and we ( and Bree) liked her so much we are interested in setting up regular doggy daycare days!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals for over 20 years, and I can’t imagine life without them. From playful puppies to sweet senior pets, I’ve cared for dogs and cats through every stage of life. My own pets have taught me patience, responsibility, and unconditional love. I know how much they mean to us, and that’s why I treat every pet I care for as if they were part of my family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just sitting together for cuddles, I give pets the attention, comfort, and love they deserve. Over the years, I’ve cared for my own dogs and cats, making sure they were happy, healthy, and loved every single day. I’ve handled everything from daily walks, feeding, and playtime to giving medications and creating a safe, comfortable environment. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll treat your pet like my own with kindness, reliability, and lots of affection. Whether it’s long walks, play sessions, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve. - Last Minute Fee 20% I’m self employed my schedule is way flexible to take care of your furry friend.

About: Hello! I’m a 31-year-old work-from-home entrepreneur and former flight instructor with a passion for animals. After graduating from the University of Florida in 2015, I moved to Los Angeles, where I worked as a nanny before becoming a flight attendant. It was during that time that I discovered my love for aviation, eventually earning my certifications to become a commercial airline pilot. Now, I’m looking for additional opportunities to provide exceptional care for your pets. I’ll care for and love your fur babies as if they were my own, ensuring they are safe, happy, and well-looked after.

About: From fostering a Great Dane and her seven puppies to caring for my own aging dog sick with cancer, I can care for animals at any stage. I’m newish on Rover, but I have been traveling and pet sitting all over the country, so my reviews are on Trusted House Sitter for reference. I look forward to chatting! I work during the week and remotely at times, so I have flexibility to accommodate any schedule. I have a car and can transport wherever. It’s just me and my dog in my apartment, but we have a first floor with a small yard out front that Kesey likes to sunbathe in. All the neighbors stop and say hello.
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs and cats since I was 8. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and entertain their pets. I currently work full time but am available 24/7 on the weekends. During the week, I can walk/feed/play morning and evening around my work schedule. I understand all pets are different and that their needs vary. I am flexible and willing to accommodate any special needs that your pet may have.
About: Hello everyone!! I am an honorably discharged Army Veteran (served 11 years), as well as a Certified Veterinary Assistant. I was raised surrounded by animals and being responsible for their wellbeing, so I understand, and I am aware of what it takes to care for animals. I know how to give oral medications/insulin/injections. I do pet sitting for fun; however, I have been considering doing it full time. I enjoy meeting all animals and maintaining a client base. I have one kitty cat that is about 14 years old, she is a rescue. Unfortunately, my dog Zeus (the golden retriever on my profile) passed away 4 months ago. I will care for your animals and treat them as I treat my own, with love and compassion. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. I would be happy to answer any questions. I am currently switching over to doing this full time, so your pets will have my full attention (along with my pets of course lol). I’ll care for your dogs and cats as I care for my own. With love, compassion, and lots of pets (even lots of pets for cats if they let me).

“I thought Maellen was terrific. A few days before our cruise, Lili, our corgi had to be fitted with "the cone of shame" for a skin condition. I contacted Maellen to see if this would create a problem and offered to find another sitter but Maellen said it would be fine. She treated the skin condition twice a day took excellent care of Lili for the 7 day cruise. Lili obviously had a great time and was in excellent condition. She did not seem to be in a big hurry to leave so I know she liked it. THANK YOU, MAELLEN.”


“Debbie was fantastic with Calypso. Even though Calypso ate her Christmas lights. We wound up being late to return from vacation and Debbie was willing to adjust her schedule to keep her for us another day, which was a blessing.”

During that time, I've cared for dogs of different ages and personalities, making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and a safe, comfortable environment while their owners are away. I also spent about a year regularly caring for and walking my sister's dog, helping with daily walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. I understand how important it is to know your pets are in good hands, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am available for pet care on Friday evenings, as well as throughout the day on Saturdays and Sundays. I can provide services such as dog walking, drop-ins, and pet sitting during these times. I am flexible on weekends and can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening visits depending on your pet’s needs and advance notice. I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and reliable environment for every pet in my care.

I make sure pets are always supervised during care, kept in secure environments, and treated with patience and consistency. I also respect each owner’s home and follow all guidelines closely to maintain trust and reliability. My goal is to ensure pets feel comfortable, cared for, and stress-free while their owners are away.
