About: I have pets of my own. I see pets as part of family so the care I provide is same as for my fuzzy love bugs, lots of luv and snuggles and maybe some extra treats if permitted ;) I know what’s it like to be away from your fuzzy friends so I will provide regular updates if you wish so. Available on weekdays/ weekends- mostly flexible schedule. Can stay overnight if needed, available on holidays. Can stop by for short time to check on your pets, play with them and feed them. I am available to stop by, walk/feed and care for your dogs or cats. I am also available to stay overnight if you are traveling and need full time care for your pets.
“Tamar is a special treat for your fur baby! Dudley is my 16-year nine month old senior, and she gave him the best care while I was on my 4 day get-away. She went above and beyond my expectations. I hesitate to say Tamar definitely will be my back-up for Dudley, because she may be overbooked!! 😃 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


About: I've been training and handling dogs of all ages and breeds for several years. Friends and family frequently rely on me for help, and ask for advice on training and dealing with problem behavior. I'm a full-time student and have other obligations besides, like most of us, but my schedule and availabilities are consistent and can often be adjusted. I have a medical background, am a veteran and psychology student, and have always had a deep love for animals. All of this to say that I've learned, either from instruction or personal research, how to care for different species and specific breeds.
About: I’ve had a love for animals for as long as I can remember. As a little kid, I would spend hours at my aunt’s house playing with her dogs — my mom would even have to come call me so I’d finally go home! Growing up, I had many different types of pets, but the one thing I always dreamed of having was a dog of my own. I begged my parents for years, and when I finally got my first dog at 13 years old, he instantly became my whole world. From a very young age, I was always the person friends and family trusted with their pets. I watched a friend’s cat while they were away and even cared for my school’s bunny for an entire day! Later on, when I moved to Sydney, Australia, I volunteered at an animal rescue center and spent the next 10 years pet sitting for both dogs and cats — something I truly loved and felt very passionate about. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I recently lost my own beloved senior dog, so I deeply understand the gentle, specialized care, and massive amount of love older pets need in their golden years. Because of this, I’m incredibly comfortable monitoring their comfort, administering medication, and making sure they feel entirely safe and relaxed while you are away. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I treat every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. <3 Since I’m currently home full-time, I have a super flexible schedule with plenty of open availability Monday through Sunday, so I can easily fit into your pet's regular daily routine without a problem. Whether you need a consistent daily walker while you're at work, or last-minute drop-in visits because something popped up, I’m around and ready to step in whenever you need an extra hand." In Your Home: When I come by for drop-ins or to pick up your dog, I treat your home with total respect. I always make sure doors are securely locked, keys are safely stored, and your home is exactly how you left it. Plus, I love giving cats and dogs lots of love, refreshing their water, and making sure they are comfy before I leave. Out on Walks: Safety is everything when we are out on an adventure. I always keep dogs securely on-leash, stay highly aware of our surroundings, and steer clear of any unpredictable situations or unfamiliar dogs. Keeping You Posted: I know how hard it is to be away, so I always send a quick update and some cute photos during or right after my visit. You'll never have to wonder how they are doing!

About: I’ve always shared my home with dogs, whether living with roommates and family who had pets or stepping in to pet-sit for friends. Even without having a dog of my own, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the unique bond they share with us 'two-legged animals.' I love their capacity for unconditional trust and pure affection—they really are the best companions. Whether I’m matching their high energy or enjoying a quiet moment of calm, I find so much joy in their presence Currently I am on sabbatical from my job and have time to spend with pets. I like taking dogs out for walks at the park, or just around the neighborhood. Unless some other life responsibility comes up, I am open to spend as much time as I would like with the fuzzy butts! I live in a small 8 unit apartment building in a very walkable neighborhood. I live very close to Griffith park and love to visit there with dogs. My apartment is a 2/2 and there are no limits to if a pet is on the furniture with me. I love to snuggle if they like to.

“Alina was very good at updating me and made me feel comfortable with leaving the cats for the time I was gone. She followed instructions well and made sure to let me know of anything I needed to know regarding my cats while I was away. I would recommend her!”

I enjoy a loyal following of repeat clientele because my clients understand that I can be trusted both with their beloved pets and with their homes. I am a successful business owner and I work out of my home, in close proximity to downtown Glendale, CA. Please Note: We can only accept one dog per visit.

Being away from a home can be a stressful situation for any pet, and we do our best to keep your pet calm and comfortable during their stay.

About: Hi! I’m Ryanne, a neuroscience & pre-med student at American University, currently home for the summer with a fully flexible schedule, meaning your pets get my undivided time and attention! I’ve been pet sitting since high school, so I bring years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even koi fish for neighbors and family friends. I currently have two small dogs of my own (a cocker spaniel and a shih tzu mix), so I truly understand how much your fur babies mean to you. I’m known for my calm, nurturing energy, which helps anxious or shy pets feel safe and comfortable quickly. As a future healthcare professional working toward my CCMA license, I approach every pet’s care with the same attention to detail and compassion I bring to my studies. Whether it’s a drop-in visit, dog walk, or house sit, I treat every pet like my own! I am currently home from college and completing a self-paced CCMA course, which allows me a very flexible daily schedule! I typically start my day around 8:00 AM, making me available for early morning feedings and play sessions. Because my studies are online and flexible, I can easily drop by throughout the day or evening to ensure your pet has consistent company and care. Whether you need a standard routine or specific visit times, I can easily integrate your pet’s needs into my daily workflow. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize safety and maintaining their established routine to minimize stress. I am very detail-oriented with instructions regarding feeding, medication, and home security. I make sure all doors and windows are secure during every visit and provide regular photo updates so you can see your pet is happy and safe. My goal is to treat your home with the utmost respect while giving your pet the same attentive, loving care I would give my own.
About: I have experience caring for all sorts of pets including big and small dogs, cats, rodents and reptiles. I love being around animals and have a great understanding of what they might be telling us through body language and visual cues. I grew up with no less than 3 dogs in the house at a time. Caring for neighborhood pets, nanny family’s pets and friend’s pets. Although I feel comfortable around pets, my approach is always calm, cautious and respectful. I will make sure your furry friend feels comfortable and safe. I am available weekdays in the early afternoon and some weekends. I have a full time job that finishes early in the day and need some extra income and something nice to do in my free time. I always care for clients pets based off of information I gather ahead of time about the pet as well as visual cues that the pet is signaling. My approach is always observant, calm and respectful of the pet’s needs.
About: Hello! My name is Lauren. I'm a longtime dog lover from a small mountain town. Dogs have always been a part of my life so I know firsthand how important they are. I grew up with dogs being a beloved part of the family, from when they were puppies to seniors. I have been a part of training and end of life care. I have been a dog walker in LA for several years and look forward to meeting many more dogs in the years to come! I am lucky to work from home with flexible hours, so I am able to build my schedule around any pet care opportunities! I own a car and can reliably commute to and from anywhere within my radius. I know that every pet has their own needs. Sometimes the shyer animals just need some company and others need to play, run, and get their energy out. Every pet in my care gets attentive looking after and owners can expect regular updates and photos.
About: All dogs have different personalities and I enjoy getting to know each one. I’ve been trusted to dogsit for friends and family over the years and for our time together I definitely treat them as if they’re my own. My time is flexible and I’m available most days of the week if not entirely. Mornings and early evenings would be best but I can definitely work throughout mid day. I do my best to keep a keen on the whereabouts and curiosities the pet may get into. I make sure that I stay on track for any dietary conditions that are provided and if approved, give treats when necessary.
“I couldn’t ask for a better cat sitter than Mindy! She went over and beyond taking care of my cat while I was away. I booked relatively last minute and had a few late adjustments to my travel plans but Mindy was very understanding and flexible. She provided plenty of updates during her visits and I could tell she genuinely cared about my cat’s well-being. I had a great experience with Mindy and would absolutely recommend her to others!”

About: I work from home and am home full time, 24/7! I’ll be a friend and playmate to all fur babies! I have experience with pets with separation anxiety so I totally get how they need all day love! Live in a duplex house with an extra room for all the furries and a huge living room with dog beds all over! AND, drumroll please… a HUGE backyard: awesome 6ft fence, with full natural grass yard and a small flower garden for all the smells. I’d love to have your pets over for a paw-ty while you are away, or pick them up for a walk on the way to the parks! I love taking pets to new parks for sniffs and if we have to drive, every pup gets a seatbelt! And a free bath if we end up getting a little rowdy and dirty while in nature hehe! I’ve taken care of various small to medium sized dogs for the last 15 years, from bichon, Havanese, poodle, chihuahua, Dalmatians, to Huskies! Even some furry cat friends! I love all things furry and have a fluffy baby of my own. I have experience with senior dogs who need medicine, diaper care, or those pups with special needs like assistance walking or going to the restroom, as I did those with my senior baby before he passed. My husband also has a hybrid schedule so there is always an extra set of eyes and an pup parent for love and cuddles! For any elderly dogs or dogs who can’t walk too far but love the fresh air, we have our large fenced yard and I also have 2 dog strollers to make sure they still feel safe and part of the dog pack! Safety is the MOST important to me so I have separated feeding areas and additional baby gates for the doors. Because of this, all unleashed play will occur in our fenced yard and we won’t be visiting any dog parks so I appreciate your understanding on this!! Neighbors, friends, family, and roommates have all entrusted me to watch over their loved ones and we’ve always had fun, safe, and silly times together! I can walk, feed, bathe and play with your fur babies and make sure they feel loved while you’re away. I’m big on pet action videos and pictures so if you want those as a pet parent I’m at your service! I love to cater to each pet parent and pet’s needs through their little staycation oasis. I’m fully remote and work from home so your pups will have a friend 24/7 if you wanted! Daily routines include wake up cuddles and kisses, morning, lunch, and dinner walks. More cuddles and kisses, lots of toys for playtime! Lots of beds for sleepies, a large fenced yard for play chase or fetch and separate areas for eating! Oh yeah, and more cuddles, kisses, photos and videos in-between! I will always have your dog on leash when we go for walks or in an enclosed yard if they need to be let out or just fed with a companion. I love taking pups to large grassy fields and in that case I have a few 25 ft leashes so the pups can “run free” but won’t be able to run away and if I have multiple pets, I would have my husband there to also help monitor the pup play!
About: For the past few years, I’ve been caring for dogs for friends, family, and now my own 3-year-old Cocker Spaniel, who I’ve raised and trained since he was a puppy. Through this experience, I’ve learned how important consistency, patience, and understanding a dog’s behavior truly are. I’m experienced with daily walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding routines, basic command training, and behavior-focused care. I pay close attention to each dog’s personality and comfort level to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and loved while in my care. I truly enjoy being around dogs and treat every pup like they’re my own.

I’ll do my best to accommodate what works best for you and your pup to make the experience as easy and stress-free as possible. Your dog’s comfort, safety, and well-being will always be my top priority. 🐾 I live in a pet-friendly apartment with my own sweet furry baby, so your pup will have company and care! There are several parks nearby, along with plenty of grassy areas right around my building—perfect for fun and relaxing walks. If needed, I can also safely crate your dog based on your preferences and their routine. I’m committed to creating a comfortable and safe environment where your pup feels right at home.

“Aksana was amazing, our dogs were loved, and seemed very happy. She followed instructions and we are super grateful so was able to come last minute. We look forward to hiring her again ✨.”

Verdugo Viejo pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lucine has been amazing with my cats. She is incredibly responsible, communicative, and clearly cares about them. My cats absolutely love her, which gives me so much peace of mind whenever I’m away. She always goes above and beyond, and I know both my cats and my home are in great hands when she’s there. I always come home to happy cats and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend!

Alicia is the most loving and thoughtful cat sitter we have ever had! From her very first visit, she treated all three of my babies like her own. She gave each of them so much attention, played with them constantly, and just seemed to know exactly what each one needed. I could actually relax on vacation for the first time maybe ever!! Honestly lifechanging and I wish I had found her sooner!! Every update she sent was so warm and thoughtful, and we came home to three happy, relaxed, clearly adored cats. We're so grateful and could not recommend her more highly! 💛

All I can say is that it’s really hard to find somebody that will walk your dog exactly around the time when you want or approximately around the time that you want and Madeline did just that and I have not been able to find someone that was as consistent and reliable as her so please know I did daily dog walks with her and she was the best as I work super long hours

Kaylah was so gentle and great towards moomoo! She was cautious not to get too close as he gets anxious and took her time getting go know him. We had a non stressful vacation knowing we were in such great hands. Every report was detailed loaded with a bunch of photos. I would highly recommend booking Kaylah to take care of your precious fur babies!

This is our 2nd time/visit with Rachel. We live over 300 miles away and I was hoping she would be available to watch our Taco again. Rachel met us beforehand to reintroduce herself to Taco. We needed her for a drop in visit while we visited Disneyland. Once again I was impressed with her kindess towards Taco. She waited for him to warm up to her which I love. Once he warmed up there was play time, which is favorite time, then outside to stretch his legs! I received several pictures, candid pictures, of him playing and his outdoor time. Taco had a nice walk. I know this because she sent a map of their walk! I'm glad that I did not hesitate to contact Rachel. I must admit, I was holding my breath till I received confirmation that she was available!! We love Rachel and I can't wait to re book again!! Thank you so much! ❤️

Wow. I cannot say enough about how wonderful the experience was having Alex look after my 2 kittens. It’s always stressful to be away from pets, but all of the positive reviews I read about Alex turned out to be true. He gave detailed reports of his interactions with my little guys and sent lots of photos. This gave me so much reassurance that all was well. I recommend Alex 100% if you want the very best care for your fur babies.

Alexis was the perfect choice to care for my senior citizen cat! He's a little grumpy and takes two medications twice a day. Alexis had no problem keeping him happy, healthy, and well-loved. Knowing my cat was in good hands let me relax while I was away, which was priceless.
