About: There is just nothing better than being able to give back to dogs! They do so much for us, so I’m thankful for the opportunity to show them some love and care back. I decided to become a full-time dog-sitter so I could help owners in need of dog care while they experience all that LA has to offer without worrying about their dog's supervision. I was born and raised with a dog in the family, so animals and I have been inseparable. I know that it can be difficult to find quality care for your pooch while you’re away, so I’m here to fulfill that role! Before I moved to California, I had four dogs in the family back home in Miami. We had two Chow's (Luke and Texas), one Schnauzer (Chloe), and one German Shepherd (Storm). In addition to being an owner, I've also volunteered for several local adoption programs here in Cali as well as Miami. Before joining Rover, I was even a k-9 handler for Staples Center/LA Live security! I've also had experience with barn animals on a farm. I got to interact with horses, cows and baby goats there. They were very adventurous yet happy animals with no care in the world much like pups! When taking on a new client, I always like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It’s a great opportunity to make sure that we are a good fit for one another, plus we get to chat face-to-face about how to make your dog as happy as possible! I love to ask lots of questions so that I can figure out just what makes your pooch tick. Plus, I always just enjoy meeting a pup for the first time! I have no breed preferences, so all are welcome by me. When your pup is under my care, I’ll make sure that both you and your dog feel completely comfortable and well taken care of. To that end, communication is one of my strong suits. I provide owners with daily updates on how their pooch is doing with lots of accompanying photos to show off just how much fun we’re having! I always keep open lines of communication in case there is any need for questions or anything of the sort. For furry friends, I always try to recreate the conditions that they are used to at home. That means adhering as closely as possible to the schedule they have at home and providing them with tons of love! I’m always happy to go the extra mile for you and your pup, so just ask! Since I’m a full time student most of my time revolves around studying and heading to class but that’s about it. I have plenty of time to care for the beloved canines. I live in a spacious apartment so there is no yard. But I do have a court yard that they can run around and play.
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.
“Julia is amazing! She cared for Shadow who has behavioral issues with so much patience and care. She was very attentive to him and she sent video and picture updates. I fully trust her with my fur baby and would definitely schedule with her for all my dog sitting needs. I highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I got my family dog at 10 years old. She is almost 12 now and still the healthiest pup! Living far from home, I miss spending time with her so I love to care for others pets. Whether it’s going for walks, playing with toys, or giving endless pets I love it all! I do not currently work full time so I have plenty of room in my schedule to care for your pets! I have a pretty easy schedule that can accommodate caring for animals. I do not have a fenced yard, but I love being active so taking your pets for walks to let out some energy is easy for me. I have no pets but a wonderful roommate who loves animals and will happily spend all day giving pets!
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, I provide dependable, compassionate, and attentive dog sitting that pet owners can truly trust. My approach combines safety, structure, and genuine affection—ensuring every dog feels comfortable, happy, and well-cared for while their owner is away. I have extensive experience with daily walks, feeding routines, medication administration, puppy care, senior dog support, and managing multiple dogs at once. My goal is always the same: to create a calm and loving environment where every dog feels safe. Because your dog deserves more than just a sitter, they deserve a trusted companion! Since I work part-time and as a self employed, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time, attention, and care to the pets I look after. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my daily and weekly routine, giving me the ability to provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. Because I’m not tied to a full-time schedule or any company, I’m often available for morning, afternoon, and evening care, making it easy to adapt to each pet’s normal routine. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and caring for them is a natural and rewarding part of my everyday life. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal, comfortable, and stress-free as possible. I make sure pets receive consistent feeding, fresh water, regular walks, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection throughout the visit. I also pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, ensuring they feel safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. I treat every home with the utmost respect and keep owners updated so they can feel confident that their beloved pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re away.
“Hiba took a good care of my baby boy Phil. She followed my instructions and Phil told me all about good time they spent together during my absence. He also complained that I left him for long time but do not mind to hang out with Hiba again if I need to leave in the future. Definitely will hire Hiba again!”
About: I’ve been around and cared for pets since I was young, and I understand that every cat has their own personality and comfort level. I’m patient with shy or cautious cats and will give them the time and space they need to feel comfortable. I’m happy to provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, companionship, and plenty of gentle attention. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away so you can have peace of mind knowing your cat is safe and cared for. I also have experience caring for our Laila, our senior dog, so I’m comfortable with older pets who may need a bit of extra patience, softness, and attention. I’m a full-time homemaker, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your cat. I’m available for drop-ins, house sitting, and regular visits, and I can give your cat plenty of attention, playtime, feeding, and companionship while you’re away. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where your cat can feel safe and comfortable. I’m attentive to their routines, feeding instructions, litter box needs, and personality. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I also have experience caring for our beloved senior dog, Laila, so I understand the extra patience and gentle care older pets may need.
“Lianna was polite and professional while taking care of our cat Einstein. She goes above and beyond! Thanks so much for taking care of Einstein as if he was yours.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Cassidy! She was incredibly nurturing, responsible, and attentive, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about our fur baby. She treated our little one like her own, giving them lots of love, attention, and care while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which gave us such peace of mind. We highly recommend her and would absolutely trust her with our Freddy again! Hire her now and you will not be disapointed.”


About: I’ve dedicated years to caring for dogs through rescue, fostering, boarding, and pet sitting. I also run a dog rescue, so caring for dogs is a huge part of my everyday life. I have extensive experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, personalities, and temperaments—including shy, fearful, anxious, and behaviorally challenging dogs who need extra patience and understanding. I also have lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs with medical needs and special care requirements, including administering medications and monitoring dogs who need extra attention. I have my own Yorkie, Duchess, who absolutely loves having friends over! She’s used to sharing her space with foster dogs and visiting pups, which makes my home a fun and social environment for dogs who enjoy canine companionship. One of the things my clients especially love is that their dogs can get healthy, appropriate socialization while staying with me. Because I regularly foster dogs, your pup can enjoy companionship and interaction with other dogs when it’s a good fit for their personality. I always prioritize safety and make sure every dog’s individual needs and comfort level come first. And there’s plenty of room to enjoy it! I have a beautiful, dog-friendly 3,000-square-foot backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, relax, and get some exercise. I also believe you shouldn’t have to wonder how your dog is doing while you’re away. I provide daily photo and video updates so you can see your pup enjoying their stay, getting comfortable, and receiving plenty of love and attention. To me, dogs are family—not just pets. When your dog is in my care, they’ll receive lots of love, attention, companionship, and individualized care in a home where dogs are genuinely part of everyday life. My goal is for you to feel completely confident knowing your dog is being cared for as one of my own. I run a foster-based dog rescue, and most of the work is done from my phone, so my daily life genuinely revolves around dogs. I also work in the fashion industry, but typically only 1–3 days per month. On the rare occasions I’m working, I have professional dog trainers I work with who can step in and provide care. This means your dog will never be left without attentive, experienced care or have a lapse in their routine. Most days, I’m home and available throughout the day for walks, playtime, cuddles, and individual attention. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can always see how your pup is doing. I have a beautiful, dog-friendly 3,000-square-foot backyard where pups can safely play, explore, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time. My Yorkie, Duchess, loves having friends over! I also run a foster-based dog rescue, so I have extensive experience safely introducing and socializing dogs with different personalities and needs. Through my rescue work, I have extensive hands-on experience recognizing when a dog may be uncomfortable, becoming ill, or experiencing a medical issue, and knowing when professional veterinary care is needed. I keep many of the supplies and essentials needed to address common issues on hand and have established relationships with multiple veterinary offices for additional support when needed. Dogs are always supervised, and I can accommodate crating, separation, medication routines, and other individual needs. My priority is making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for while they’re with me.

“Vanessa is fantastic! Very thorough with any directions and loves on my for babe like I would! Makes long days at work very stress free knowing Hazel is in good hands!”

About: I'm a lifelong and committed animal lover. My family always had pets and I have an innate connection and affection for all animals. My family had Old English Sheep dogs (also a horse and cats) so I'm very comfortable around animals. Pets usually sense this and take to me immediately. I have a quiet, gentle nature and will do everything I can to make your pet feel safe and cared for and for you to trust that your dog is in the best hands. I'm very physically active and am more than happy to take energizing walks and hikes with your dog or play unlimited games of fetch. I’m also neat and organized and will leave your home cleaner than when I arrived. I’m comfortable with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Van Nuys
Anya and Dana were perfect! They sent pictures and updates every day and even responded to last minute requests from my apartment building. I came back to a very content kitty, who probably barely realized I was gone. I appreciated their attention to detail during our meet & greet and they were able to give my old lady lots of love and care while I was away. I would absolutely book them again!

Marina did a wonderful job! She was very friendly, easy to work with, and kept me updated the entire time. If I ever leave on another vacation, I'll make sure to see if she's available. If you have cats and want to make sure they're well looked after, please consider doing the same!!

Beyond grateful with Itzel! She was kind, loving, and patient with my fur babies. I was impressed how my Salem & whiskey felt really comfortable with her. Normally they hide away, but they seemed to really like her as they were roaming when she came over to check on the dogs. Itzel inspired trust in them. That for me speaks volume. She really treated my kids like her own. Thank you ❤️

We have rebooked Jill to pet sit for us so many times and I can honestly say every single time has been amazing which is why we will continue to re book her because the care and love she shows our babies tells us she loves what she does. Honestly there are not enough great words to put on here but Jill is fantastic !

We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter than Cassidy! She was incredibly nurturing, responsible, and attentive, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely cared about our fur baby. She treated our little one like her own, giving them lots of love, attention, and care while we were away. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat, which gave us such peace of mind.

Jennifer was the absolute best. I get so anxious and overwhelmed with leaving my special needs cat when I need to travel, but she was so wonderful with her and came right on time every day to bond with her, give her medication, and send detailed updates. I'll absolutely book with her again!!

Katherine was great at being on time and doing everything she was supposed to for my cat Arya - wet food, topping off fountain and refilling spare water bowl, cleaning litter box and taking a photo of Arya. She was communicative and let me know if there was anything wrong and brought in my Amazon package! She left great notes after each visit. Will book again in the future!

Heaven was right on time, respectful, kind, and communicative. She was wonderful with my senior cat and handled a long list of medication and care instructions with such grace. I really appreciated her visit and look forward to having her care for my cat again.

Theadora is great! She’s incredibly kind, reliable, and so good with my brand new rescue dog. I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in her care, and he clearly loved spending time with her. She was attentive, patient, and genuinely caring. I’d absolutely recommend her and will be booking with her again!
