Crystina is wonderful, and our boy is very fond of her. She is very reliable and responsive to our needs. Oscar looks forward to seeing her and comes back happy and mellow. She is a weekly walker for us and we appreciate the care she provides.

Bryanna has been great with our dog Buster and takes lots of pictures and even videos during her visits. She is good at communicating and responds to messages quickly. She's dependable and shows up when she says she will and we are really happy to have found her. She brings her dog to play with Buster and it's been a great arrangement for Buster to have a friend and more socialization. She was willing to just come herself to take Buster on his walk if they didn't get along. We hope Bryanna continues to be available to visit Buster.

Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while away. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, high-energy pets, and shy animals.

I am new to the are and am currently have a full-time job and am looking to work more with animals in my free time. I’d love to help keep your pets active, happy, and healthy while also staying active myself through regular walks and pet care!

About: Patience, reliability and an eye for detail - these are some of the qualities that set me apart as a sitter. I take the time to get to know your pet's unique personality, their routine and what they need to feel safe and relaxed in your home while you are away. I have experience with energetic dogs and with shy or anxious pets that require a more delicate touch. I am a firm believer in communication: You can count on receiving updates, photos and honest feedback. Above all, I treat each pet like it's my own, ensuring they feel loved, secure and well taken care of throughout the entire booking. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine because I have open availability. I’m flexible with timing and able to accommodate last-minute bookings, extended stays, or regular check-ins throughout the day. Whether you need morning walks, midday visits, or evening drop-ins, I can adjust to your pet’s schedule, so they stay comfortable and cared for exactly when they need it. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow your pet’s routine exactly—feeding schedules, walking times, crate preferences, and any special instructions you provide. I take time to learn each pet’s behavior cues so I can keep them calm, comfortable, and monitored at all times. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and maintain a clean, secure environment. I double-check doors, gates, and leashes before every outing and never take unnecessary risks. Pets are never left unattended in unsafe situations, and I keep a close eye on their energy levels, interactions, and surroundings. I communicate throughout the visit with photo updates and clear notes, so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to create a safe, steady, and stress-free experience—both for your pet and for you.

About: Hello, My name is Sandy. I've had pets all my life, from aquatic pets to fur babies. I love animals and have three dogs of my own. All with their own personalities and I take care of all their needs, from food, hygiene, and physical health to make sure they are happy. I'm positive I can cater to your baby's specific needs as well. I'm patient with my dogs, as I understand every dog has their own personality and different needs. I'm loving, caring, and observative of their behaviors. I love dogs of all breeds would love to help fellow dog owners by providing my services. I currently live in Van Nuys area but I can take clients that live in Palmdale as well as I visit very often. I am currently a student at CSUN & I have an open availability. I am available weekdays and weekends anytime with little to no notice in advance. I live in an apartment with my German Shepard. I know how important it is to exercise your dog especially in a smaller space so we go on walks 3x a day. He is my spoiled baby. I fall in love with all dogs I take care of as if they were my own & like to take extra steps (cuddles, treats, walking, playing.. etc) to ensure they are comfortable while their parents are away.

About: Since I was a child, I cared for many animals and pets on my family's farm, and in the last 15 years in LA, I've had my own pets and all my neighbors and friends come to me for pet care while they are out of town! I work as a part-time plant science consultant, I am a mom of a 10-year old human and an 11-year old doggy, I have a flexible schedule and love to be active, so pet care fits in nicely! I have a secure and fenced in back yard and many comfortable spaces for dogs all around the house. Cats are not a good fit in our home, unfortunately.

Jaime was absolutely awesome with Boosh, our Pit/Lab baby girl. He was able to pick her up and down the stairs to our complex. We had dog family over for a week and Jamie was able to accommodate walking them on short notice. Boosh loved seeing him and would bring him her ball a few times; seriously jelly about that. ?

About: First time clients please enjoy $20 off your first booking! https://www.rover.com/sit/chanwl43421 As a full-time clinical psychologist working from home, I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with the dogs I care for. Your pup won’t be left alone or bored. I’m here throughout the day for companionship, playtime, and attentive supervision. What makes our home extra special is that my lovely and caring spouse also works from home. This means your dog will always have someone around, receiving attention, love, and care from both of us. There’s never a moment where they’ll be left out or overlooked. I have hands-on experience with rescue dogs, and I’ve personally adopted and trained one myself. This experience, combined with my professional background in behavioral psychology, allows me to understand dogs’ needs on a deeper level from anxiety and attachment to motivation and habit-building. We always welcome a meet & greet before booking. There’s a large, quiet park right by our home where we can meet in a neutral setting, talk through your dog’s needs and routine, and make sure everyone feels comfortable. Feel free to reach out and schedule one! Above all, your dog’s safety is my number one priority. Rover provides strong safety guidelines, and I’ve already had positive experiences using Rover’s tools to handle unexpected situations with calm and flexibility. You can trust that your pup will be in capable and loving hands. I work from home on weekdays, which gives me the flexibility to provide care throughout the day. I’m generally available at most times during the week, and with a little notice, I can usually accommodate weekend requests as well. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and personalized environment for every dog in my care whether it's for daycare or home boarding. I take time to understand each pup’s unique needs, follow their routines closely, and provide lots of love and attention to help them feel at home. Whether your dog stays at my home or I care for them in yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment. I follow your dog's routine closely and always keep safety top of mind whether it's leash rules on walks, feeding instructions, or respecting boundaries around other pets. In my home, pets have plenty of space to relax and play. I never leave dogs unattended, and I provide regular check-ins and updates so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands.

I also provide regular updates and photos so you can stay connected and reassured while you're away. I work during the day, but I'm available on weekdays after 3 PM and fully available on weekends.

About: Growing up in a house full of dogs, I guess I picked up a few tricks along the way. My friends joke that I’m the “dog whisperer,” but honestly, it’s more like I’m their unpaid therapist. Most dogs and I vibe right away, like we’ve got some unspoken connection. Even the cautious ones usually come around pretty quickly.. maybe it’s the good vibes..? Maybe it’s the good treats..? Either way, mi casa, their casa. 🏠🐶 Now that I’m pursuing music full time, my schedule is much more flexible! I work from home during the week and usually keep my weekends open, so I can be fully attentive and available for your pup whenever they need me. 🫡 I prioritize being present with your pets at all times to ensure their safety and provide them with a home-like sense of security, knowing they have a trusted friend by their side. 🐾 🤝

About: I love playing with playful pups or chilling with lap dogs! I have a cat at home and I have been a sitter on Rover for 2 years. I am not experienced to potty train! If your pet is not potty trained or has a severe case of separation anxiety, I do recommend you look for another sitter :) This is my full time job! I do have a cat to take care of so I will leave to take care of her for a few hours or run errands. I will keep clients’ homes clean and locked when I’m not there. Let me know if any of your pets like to escape and I will be careful opening the door!

Minerva is the most caring and loving dog walker! She takes her time walking Kobe and sends plenty of pictures and updates about his activities (pee, poo, etc.). She's very detailed, quick to respond, communicative, and incredibly friendly. You can tell she's an animal lover. Kobe has fallen in love with her in such a short time! Can't thank Minerva enough for everything she does for our Kobe!
