Dog Walking Westwood

About: I've been taking care of several beautiful dogs, since I was a child. I've always had a dog in my house. My family also loves dogs so is in our blood. My friends have me taking care of their furry ones when they need to go places. I love all kind of pets, but I believe I have special communication with dogs and horses. I have skills knowing how dogs feel depending on their attitude and body language but most importantly by listening to their feelings. Currently studying just a few classes at the SMC. Available to take care of your furries all week, including some weekends. I love exercising and lifting weights so walking with the furries complements my exercise daily routine. I always take care of my special furries with love, respect and with much attention to detail. I treat them like family. Safety is key when taking care of furries, so I always make sure they are secure and safe.

“Allie has gone above and beyond. I was very nervous about using a dog walker or allowing a strsnger into a home, but her personality, friendliness, and professionalism have led me to feel I made the perfect decision. I am very comfortable knowing that she is the one walking my fur baby.”

“Sai was so great at taking care of my sweet, old dog! He fed her and gave her water and treats as I asked, and gave her tons of attention and great walks! Also, he took a ton of photos and provided great detail on each walk! I would absolutely recommend Sai.”

About: Hi, I’m Andrea! I offer reliable drop-in visits and walks for cats and small dogs in Westwood/West LA. I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet while you’re away, and I always do my best to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their usual routine. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and oral medication if needed. I also send photo updates and follow instructions closely so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. If you’re looking for dependable care for your cat or small dog, I’d love to help.🤍 I have a flexible schedule and have lots of free time to play and care for your precious pet. I’m ok with last minute notices and happy to communicate with pet parents at any hour of the day. I will follow your instructions carefully and ensure your little one gets everything he or she needs. Note: Dogs will always stay on their leash while on a walk

About: I volunteered at Muttville Senior Dog Shelter throughout high school where I fed and walked dogs, as well as administered medications and cared for dogs coming out of surgery. I grew up with a cat and a dog with opposing personalities so definitely have a way with animals! Looking forward to meeting yours! I’m looking to do Rover as a primary source of income this summer. I have very few things scheduled so my routine is extremely flexible. When I pet sit, I’m ideally providing 24/7 care, with a good amount of walks depending on the individual dog’s need, as well as feeding at the same times each day. I’m open to pet sitting at my and the client’s home.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up with both dogs and cats and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. In addition to having a dog of my own, I've fostered numerous puppies, dogs, and kittens, which has given me experience with everything from energetic young pets to those needing extra patience and attention. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter, where I help care for animals and support their well-being. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m currently on a very flexible schedule and available weekdays and most weekends, allowing me to accommodate pet care needs, walks, drop-ins, and boarding requests. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide attentive, reliable care and treat every pet like family. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos, follow your pet’s routine closely, and ensure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while you're away.

About: I care for every pet like they’re my own family member, not just a job on my calendar. When your pet is with me, they’re getting affection, and lots of attention to the little details that make them feel safe and at home, the same I give to my own pup (Q-pid). What sets me apart from other sitters is how intentional I am about routines and communication. I take the time to learn your pet’s normal behavior, quirks, and preferences so I can spot if something seems “off.” I follow your instructions closely (feeding schedule, walk times, meds, crate routines, training cues, etc.) so your pet’s day feels as familiar and stress-free as possible. You’ll also get regular photo updates and honest check-ins, so you never have to wonder how things are going. Whether your pet is a high-energy goofball, a shy introvert, or a wise old soul, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and understood while you’re away and to give you total peace of mind in the process. I'm currently a student with 1.5 - 3 hours of class per day. Taking care of my pet and your pet fits naturally into my daily routine. I ensure my daily routine allows me to actually be present with my pup and the animals I’m caring for, not just squeeze them in between other commitments. On weekends, my schedule is even more flexible, so I can accommodate longer walks, park trips (if you’re comfortable with that), and extended stays. Overall, I treat your pet’s care like a priority, not an afterthought. I plan my day around their needs so they get reliable, loving attention and you get peace of mind while you’re away. Safety and trust are my top priorities. And I treat your pet the same way I treat my own pup: with patience, respect, and a lot of care for the details that keep them happy and secure. I have a friendly resident pup, so I do slow, supervised introductions to make sure everyone feels safe. I watch body language closely and will always prioritize a calm, positive first meeting. If anyone seems overwhelmed, I separate, redirect, and give them space instead of forcing interaction. I keep a pet-safe environment: - Leashes are always used outside or in unsecured areas. - Doors and gates are checked and closed so no one can slip out. - Food, trash, and anything unsafe (chocolate, meds, etc.) stay well out of reach. - No access to toxic foods or plants - Trash secured and small objects kept out of reach - Doors and windows checked and locked before playtime Feeding is always supervised, and I never free-feed multiple dogs together. I separate pets during meals and high-value treats to avoid any resource guarding or tension. I follow your instructions on crate use, furniture rules, feeding routines, and treats. If your dog prefers their own crate or bed, I’ll make sure they have a quiet spot to relax and decompress away from extra stimulation. There’s always time built in for bathroom breaks, exercise, play, and just as importantly—rest. In your home: When I’m caring for your pet in your space, I follow your house rules and routines. I stick to the schedule you give me for walks, meals, meds, and playtime, so your pet’s day feels familiar and predictable. I double-check doors and gates, keep leashes and harnesses secured, and always monitor them closely on walks—no risky off-leash time unless you’ve specifically requested it and it’s in a safe area. Communication & peace of mind: You’ll get regular photo updates and honest notes about how your pet is doing—eating well, bathroom habits, energy level, anything I notice—so you can relax knowing they’re not just “okay,” they’re truly cared for. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is simple: a safe, calm, and loving environment where your pet can relax, have fun, and feel like they’re with family.

“I needed someone to walk my puppy and Max was kind enough to take my last minute request! He was very kind, communicative, and thorough. I’m such a helicopter mom, so I appreciated all the pictures and notes he sent without me even asking. I would definitely book with him again :)”

About: I grew up taking care of pets! My childhood dog Olivier was an unusual mix; he was an eye-catching, mutant-sized Dachshund who got a lot of attention walking down the street, and we had a couple of independent-minded kitties. My family still has multiple dogs and cats. I absolutely adore dogs and feel strongly about tuning in to who they are - if they want to play, it's on! If it's a shy guy or gal, I respect their space if and until they feel more comfortable. I facilitate healing workshops and I'm an artist with a variable schedule that I keep up-to-date on my Rover calendar. I'm currently living in a building that doesn't allow dogs and I love cats but am super allergic. So daily pet care for me is making friends with and greeting my doggy neighbors. When I've had pets or boarded them previously with Rover, I always make sure to find out the basics of their personality from you, their favorite human. They deserve the same consideration we give people! Currently only offering walks, not boarding.

About: I have nine-plus years of cat-sitting experience and am comfortable working with different types of feline personalities and ages. I also used to watch my neighbor’s small and medium sized dogs, take them for walks, and feed them. I am able to administer oral medication as well as provide insulin injections for diabetic cats. I am very responsible and know that animal care is crucial; I treat pets with the same amount of respect as people. I have been caring for friends’, neighbors’, and family’s pets for years. I have hands-on experience maintaining a clean and healthy environment for cats, including regular care such as cleaning litter boxes. I would love to provide care for your furry friends! I am a full time online grad student, giving me flexibility in my schedule to care for your cats and small dogs. I have a vehicle as well, making it easy to care for your pets. I care for pets by providing enriching play, ensuring their food and water needs are met, providing medication if needed, and sending photos and videos to their lovely humans.

About: Hi! I’m Natalie, a UCLA Psychology student who genuinely loves animals. I’ve cared for dogs for family, friends, and neighbors over the years and understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pet. I’m dependable, patient, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply sticking to their normal schedule, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I enjoy staying active, so walks and outdoor play are always something I look forward to, and I’ll send plenty of photo updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands. As a UCLA student, I balance classes and work while making pet care a priority in my schedule. I’m committed to being reliable, communicating promptly, and providing quality care. My availability varies throughout the week, but I always do my best to accommodate each family’s needs whenever possible. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special instructions so they feel secure while you’re away. I’ll respect your home as if it were my own. I will keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure your pet receives lots of love, attention, exercise.

About: I’ve had my dog, Milo, since he was a puppy and I basically take him anywhere he is welcomed. As someone who was scared of dogs as a child, I made it a priority to understand my own dog. I learned plenty about dog enrichment and body language, which has helped Milo become a well-adjusted and socialized dog. My approach to dog walking is allowing the pups to obtain enrichment through walking with brief stops for quick training. All bookings will help fund my dog’s dental cleaning, so thank you! 🫶🏽 Available for walks almost any time during the week, so long as you book in advance. 🙂‍↕️ Will likely walk my dog along with your dog, but let me know if your dog prefers to fly solo. Milo and I take walks every 4-8 hours. All pups are welcome to make themselves at home and are allowed on the furniture. There’s a balcony if your pup wants to sunbathe with Milo. We have a crate that your dog can use, if need be.

About: Seasoned sitter with a track record of reliable care dating back to my teenage years, specializing in diverse breeds and specialized needs. I provide high quality care tailored to your pet’s unique personality and physical needs. My experience ranges from managing the high energy dynamic of a pack of Pomeranians to providing attentive support for an injured cat. Leave it to me, you can have peace of mind knowing that your pet is with a calming, caring presence providing updates as often as you wish. I am self employed and I always keep mornings free. I can be available on short notice if needed. My schedule is generally flexible during the week. Safety and trust are my top priorities when entering a client's home. During every visit I make sure all entries are securely locked and that the space is free of hazards before leaving. When walking, I am hyper vigilant about my surroundings. I steer clear of unknown animals and potential threats to the safety of pets.

“I can't recommend Egle highly enough. She has been absolutely fantastic with my miniature schnauzer, Alfie. From day one, it was clear that she has a natural ability with dogs and genuinely cares about the animals she works with. One thing I particularly appreciate is that she's willing to incorporate specific training and behavioral reinforcement during walks. Whenever I've asked her to work on something with Alfie, she's been incredibly receptive and consistent, which has made a noticeable difference. It's rare to find someone who goes beyond simply walking your dog and actively helps reinforce good habits. She's also exceptionally reliable. She's always on time, communicates proactively and provides thoughtful, detailed updates after each walk. The notes and photos give me confidence that Alfie is getting great care and allow me to stay informed on how he's doing. Most importantly, Alfie absolutely loves her. It's obvious she knows how to connect with dogs, and I always feel completely comfortable knowing he's in her care. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, professional, knowledgeable and genuinely great with dogs, I would wholeheartedly recommend”
