“My cat Magnus really enjoyed Erin's visits! Erin was great, providing updates and communicating with me for his food schedule and coordinating visit details. I felt like Magnus was in good hands and he will definitely want to see Erin again!”

“Payton did a wonderful job with our pups. She was on time and played with them outside. She has to stay and watch them eat their meals because one of them (Panda Sandoval) is a food thief. Buster Posey is a puppy mill pup so he has some issues. She won him over though. Thank you Payton!”

“had a great experience working with Shang over a two week period. She walked and fed my dogs with so much care and reliability. I even had an “oops” moment where I mistakenly thought a day was booked when it wasn’t, and she was incredibly gracious and understanding when I reached out. Once we sorted out my mistake, she confirmed the remaining days and everything went smoothly. I truly appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and flexibility. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!”

“Mindi was wonderful with Odin! She stopped by for a drop-in visit, gave him a nice walk, and made sure he was well cared for. I could tell he was happy and comfortable after their time together. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”

“Ajit is very kind and respectful. He takes the time to understand your needs, shows up on time, asks questions ahead of time to be prepared for the visit, and takes great care of your pup! Highly recommended!”

About: 🐶 I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. Over the years I’ve cared for all kinds of furry (and not-so-furry!) friends—from big doggies like Akitas and Labradors to tiny pups like Yorkies and Malteses, plus rabbits, hamsters, squirrels, birds, turtles, and even snakes. I’ve been there for puppies just born, mamas during pregnancy and delivery, little ones nursing and growing up, playful adults, and sweet seniors. No matter what stage of life your fur baby is in, you can trust that I’ll love and care for them as if they were part of my own family. 🐾 Right now I live with five little pups under 8 lbs, and they absolutely love making new friends. They have free roam of the house all day, with pet stairs to help them hop onto the couch. 🌻Currently, I work from home, I’m around all day to keep them company. I provide potty breaks every 2-4 hours and gentle paw wipes after each. I serve meals right on schedule, and in the afternoons I like to prepare a bit of fresh food (if you’re okay with it). Before bed, we do nightly tooth brushing, and every Saturday we head to the dog park for some playtime. You’ll get daily photos and videos so you can always feel close to your fur baby. 💉 I only host healthy pets with up-to-date vaccinations, and no sick pets. I maintain a clean and safe space, and follow each owner’s instructions closely.

“Jenna was great for checking in on my pup while I was at work! She took lots of photos and a video of their time at the park. It’s easy to tell she genuinely enjoys taking care of pets and spending time with them. I’ll definitely continue having her take care of my pets!”

About: i treat every animal like family. My strong intuition with animals behavior and my ability to quickly build trust with even the shyest pets, an expert in creating engaged routines, daily walks, playtime, and enrichment activities to keep pets mentally and physically stimulated. My schedule still gives me plenty of flexibility to provide top-notch pet care! I am open and dedicated. Its the best part of my day! In my home pets have a clean, cozy, and pet proofing space where they can feel secure and relaxed. when caring for a pets in a clients home, i respect their space and follow all instructions carefully.
“Sam is so wonderful and it’s clear Myla loves her! She was super punctual, communicated everything very clearly, and was so easy to work with - we can’t wait to book with her again!”

I am available anytime during the week as well as full availability on the weekends to take care of your furry friend(s). Can’t wait to meet and take care of your pet’s needs. When I care for a pet I make sure to prioritize safety and comfort. Whether this means making sure they receive the right amount of food, water, or medications, litter boxes and backyards are clean, going on friendly walks, or receiving attention and playtime I think it’s all important and necessary care to ensure a relaxing and anxiety free environment.

About: I lost my pittie Juice of nine years who passed away, I miss him deeply. I have thought of ways to give back that would fill my heart with joy. I would like to give back to other dog parents in need of help or an extra hand as a dog mama myself I have always loved dogs. I have grown up with large and smalls breeds my entire life and have watched my family and friends dogs throughout the years. I work hybrid remote, in office Wed-Thurs & about less than 10 min drive from work. I can be home the other days in the week and on weekends if needed. I live in 800 sq foot apartment and it can be spacious for large dog as well. I'd like to note, I reside on the third floor of my apartment and it is only stairs. My dog was as pittie 95lbs before he passed away. I live close to walking trails, nice neighbors, and close to two dog parks within a 5 minute drive.
About: I have taken care of pets in different moments throughout my years of life, but I have always had that soft spot for animals even though I’ve never had one of my own, so because of that, the responsibility that comes with taking care of one, I appreciate more each time I’m given the task to take care of a pet for somebody. I take lots of responsibility and care into everything I do. I currently am in a Medical Assisting program so this would help me so much to raise money! I am very passionate about taking care of others including pets. Please consider me when booking ! :) I am currently working a part-time job, so I have lots of time throughout the week to do animal sitting. I am available very early in the mornings before my school starts, and as well as after school, and on the weekends as needed. I personally have never had pets, but many of my family members and family friends do so with that I have helped feed my friends dogs, helped take them out on walks, and have helped play with them to keep their energy levels up. As well as cleaning any accidents.
About: I love taking care of and interacting with cats and dogs. I truly have a soft spot for all animals and want to ensure they are getting the attention they deserve while their owners are away to know they are loved! Growing up, I had a pet husky and a Great Dane, and 2-4 cats at any time. My husky lived to be 17 years old, so I have experience and a special place in my heart for caring for senior dogs. I also spent over 10 years in the military where I would often be asked to pet sit for coworkers and friends when they would be required to travel for extended periods of time for work or when they’d travel far to visit their family. Many times it was last minute, but I always found a way to seamlessly help them out and their beloved pets! I currently work independently and am able to set my own schedule. I will adjust my schedule around your pet’s needs. I can board pets in my home throughout the week. Walks or check-ins can be scheduled throughout the day. I have a fenced-in back yard and a doggy door. My 75-lb border collie mix, Jackson, is docile and loves to play with other dogs. He has lived with a corgi, 2 labradoodles, and a German shepherd in the past. I require meeting dogs in person before boarding them in my home to ensure they get along with Jackson. When I visit other homes, I like to spend quality time with the dogs in addition to regular care. This may include play time, walks, and giving them affection (if that is their personality).
Westlake pet parents share their Rover experiences
Chelsea did a great job with my senior grumpy cat, lovable but obese furball, and latest addition young cat. I got daily updates and she even helped with a bit of vacuuming when the litter box got out of hand. Communication was great even though I was out of the country and there was an issue with the front door. She easily fixed it with minimal instructions from afar.

had a great experience working with Shang over a two week period. She walked and fed my dogs with so much care and reliability. I even had an “oops” moment where I mistakenly thought a day was booked when it wasn’t, and she was incredibly gracious and understanding when I reached out. Once we sorted out my mistake, she confirmed the remaining days and everything went smoothly. I truly appreciate her professionalism, kindness, and flexibility. I would definitely use her again and highly recommend her!

Jamiela checked in on our elderly dog Tika every day for the week we were away on vacation. She helped Tika go out to potty and spent time petting/massaging and brushing her. It was such a relief for me to have Jamiela checking in on her and allowed me to relax on vacation. My brother took care of Tika while we were gone, but had to work during the day and I was worried about Tika being alone all day, especiallywith the stress of my partner and I being gone. I would 100% book Jamiela again, she was super reliable and clearly cared about Tika and was comfortable with an elderly dog.

Mindi was wonderful with Odin! She stopped by for a drop-in visit, gave him a nice walk, and made sure he was well cared for. I could tell he was happy and comfortable after their time together. Highly recommend her for anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!

Sydney was fantastic. She really helped us out for a long stretch of drop in visits on short notice. She communicated quickly and took excellent care of our large (but friendly) dog. We were so happy to leave him in such good hands and will be reaching out to Sydney again for caring for our dog. Thank you Sydney!

Shannon took such good care of our dog while we were away on vacation! She checked on him 3 times a day and always at the scheduled time. She walked him 2-3 times a day, sent us numerous pictures, and frequently kept us updated on how he was doing. She made us feel confident that he was being well taken care of and given lots of attention, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation without worrying. We would definitely have Shannon watch him again the next time we go out of town!
