Cat Sitting in Valley Village

About: Since 2006, I have cared for my own dogs and cats: Atena, Romi, Kina and Rafi, all part of my family. I was responsible for their walks, feeding and daily routines. I offer calm, reliable and loving care. Pet care is part of my daily rhythm. I’m used to following feeding schedules, giving attention, and keeping a peaceful environment. I naturally integrate pet routines into my day to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I maintain a safe, organized, and peaceful environment for every pet. I follow routines, pay close attention to their needs, and make sure they always feel secure and comfortable under my care.

“Yvonne was wonderful. She checked in on and fed my cat, Cora, twice a day while we were gone for a four day trip. She updated me on each visit sending me photos and a recap of her stay/how my cat was doing. Highly recommend Yvonne! We’ll be asking her to watch Cora again for sure.”

“Genesis was amazing! She came to save the day on last minute plans. She’s incredibly responsive, flexible and helpful! I came home to a happy well taken care of fur baby and home. She’s very trusting and I would hire her again!”

“Elizabeth was great, very communicative and friendly. Orla liked her very much and the photos were adorable. Will definitely book again in the future.”

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

About: Hi there! My name is Gwendolyn. I have loved dogs all my life and grew up with an extremely active border collie . I first began walking neighbor’s dogs while I was in middle school and have been petsitting ever since. I understand how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet and I will do everything I can to ease your mind while you are away. I am extremely communicative and can send as many photos and videos as you like! Some of my favorite past clients have been a retired racing greyhound, a Rhodesian ridgeback, and a 19 year old schnauzer who lived on a diet of Erewhon Korean BBQ. I am comfortable caring for senior animals and administering medication. Can’t wait to meet you and your fur kids soon! I’m a full-time gig worker and taking care of animals is one of my favorite things to do! There is nothing I love more than a night in with plenty of playtime and snuggles. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you are looking for last-minute care, too- I will do my absolute best to make things work! I unfortunately cannot board dogs at this time, as I live in an apartment complex that has a pet fee. Hoping to change this soon!

“Gabriela's catsitting for our cat Riddle was the definition of above and beyond. Our cat is one year old and very energetic. When this meant that she toppled the auto-feeding machine that we had set up for the mornings (multiple times), Gabriela went out of her way to come to our apartment outside of her scheduled check-ins (multiple times) to make sure Riddle still got fed and to fix the machine (ultimately improvising a clever solution to support it involving a scarf and a bookshelf). Needless to say, we will be getting a new auto-feeder but keeping the same catsitter in the future if we can, haha. Gabriela was attentive and helpful and Riddle was head over hills for her, I would absolutely recommend her to look after your pet!”

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.

“Katherine is great. She did everything she needed to do to take care of Opal while we were gone for 2 weeks. It takes Opal a while to get used to new people, but Opal grew to love her very quickly. Very easy to talk with and is very friendly! Highly recommend Katherine!”

“After having to make a last minute trip out of town my fiance and I were scrambling to find somone to take care of our pup. We have an American pitbull which many people may not feel comfortable with. We were so excited when we came across Seanna's account and impressed with the experience being offered. The communication was great and she sent us pictures of our pup as well. We highly recommend her services and would 100% use her in the future.”

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.

“I knew my furry babies were in good hands. 🙏😻”

“Catherine was simply fantastic with my boy Kane! She was professional and paid attention to the details. My cat was immediately comfortable with her and enjoyed her visits. She provided great updates and photos and made me so much more at ease being away from my fur baby. Thanks so much Catherine!”

Savannah B.

“Emily was amazing with my dog, Watson! She was so kind and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable. She always checked in with me, sent lots of photos, and made him feel truly loved. Now, when we’re home, Watson will walk up to the door hoping she shows up, which says everything about how much he adores her. I’m so grateful for the care she gave him and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can fully trust with their pup :)”

“My dog loves Maryna! I love her because she is trustworthy and responsible.”

Lori M.

“Sara is amazing!! She communicated every visit and sent photos and truly cared for my two kitties. She was very flexible and able to stop by unscheduled in a pinch… Especially last minute when my flight was delayed she worked around her schedule to stop by and give their feedings and medication. She is super kind, reliable, thoughtful, absolutely trust her for all my upcoming cat care. She’s an absolute gem!!! So grateful for her!!”

Laura Lee F.

“Kristin was so great with my cats! Her detailed and thoughtful updates after each visit set my mind at ease when I was out of town with a busy week of my own.”

Amanda C.

“Dea went above and beyond for both our cat and dog! She was communicative, on time, and put both pets at ease. We absolutely would book her again!”

About: I grew up having mostly dogs, but also ended up with three cats. I’ve pet sat for family and friends. But more recently have helped dog sit while my clients were on vacation. They were senior dogs who needed medication and some extra love and care. I’m currently an afternoon nanny 2pm-6pm on Week days. This will allow me to do early mornings and midday visits or walks. I am open to evening visits as well. My weekends are some what flexible, with enough advance notice I am free to visit or petsit if schedule permits. If I’m going to walk a dog, I make sure that arrive promptly, take them for a walk and provide update. I’ll make sure to be respectful of your space and privacy. Same would apply if I’m doing a drop in for a kitty. Make sure your pets are safe and happy. When I sit for a family I usually spend the night, I feed and walk in the morning, go to work in the afternoon. Come back walk and play and do dinner. I’ll make sure to clean up after my visits and respect your home.

“My first time using Rover services and quite pleased with the communication and peace of mind Kelly has given me. Hopefully she is not busy the next time I may need her!”
