“I’m so grateful for the amazing care Jasmine gave my dog over the weekend! She was super nice and kept me updated with check-ins, pictures, and videos, which I really appreciated. My dog looked so happy and well taken care of—and I could tell he had a great time because he came back to me tired from all the fun walks and dog park! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pup.”
About: Pets love me and I love them! I rescued my most recent Covid baby who was left on the streets in LA in 2021. My friends and family all have dogs and cats, so I am always around a fur baby or two. More than happy to watch yours as well! I am a full time pet care taker and happy to help take care of your pet. I’m flexible with times and accommodations. I normally walk my pup in the morning for 2 miles and less than a mile in the afternoon. I enjoy staying busy and active so adding your loved to my day would bring us both so much joy. During walks ensuring safety for all pups in the area is crucial for a successful walk. When in doubt I will cross the street or walk on the other side of parked cars to avoid any motives or altercations of pups towards my own.
“Traci is the best. She really love dogs and she is so sweet with them. Not only that, she really cares about people and is really empathetic about the needs of the doggies and the owners. She is really flexible about times and plans. For sure I will look for her the next time that we go back to Los Angeles. Thank you very much for everything Traci.”
About: I have taken care of a variety of animals since I was a young kid and have had a dog virtually my entire life, sometimes a few dogs at once and many cats too. I have been a fish, dog, and cat parent for about thirty years or more of my adult life and ongoing. Recently completed a twelve-week obedience training course with our German Shepherd. Plenty of work to do. We also have done pet sitting for friends, as they have also done for us over the many years. We have cared for many a senior dog or cat, as they have been ours. We have always had and cared for animals through their entire life cycle. Before Rover dog care and dog walking of other peoples pets, aside from friends pets was not something we had done as a business, but taking care of animals, especially dogs is an activity I have been doing my entire life, every day. We walk our own dog a couple of times daily. I have owned and cared for many dogs. I currently own a two year old White German Shepherd, which is very socialized. He is a silly one. I have some experience in training, in as much as myself and my GSD went through twelve weeks of obedience classes through PetSmart to help get him setup for success. My primary business is in IT. I work from home almost every day. I have an independent IT consulting company, working for myself since 2003, to date. A very flexible schedule. However, the business has been slow and I am looking for something to supplement my income. Another IT job would likely be treated as a conflict, and I already do that work anyway. This type of gig seems perfect, flexible schedule and doing something I have always wanted to do. Right now, I have the time. We will discuss shifts; I may be good to help during a variety of times. I love dogs, all animals really. We are very willing to sit for some dogs in our own home or stop in to check on, walk and feed them, etc. I have a neighbor that does the same thing as a “side hustle” (for Rover) and they love it. When I am out walking my dog, I often run into them walking their dog tenants that they are sitting while owners are away. I have lived in the Southbay since 1988 and love it here. I live in a two-story house on the edge of old Torrance and Harbor City. I look forward to our future contact and making some new furry friends. Thanks so much for your consideration. I have a fenced yard and one dog, a white German Shepherd that is still enjoying late stage puppy hood :-) at two years old. Loves his toys, well socialized and really loves playing with other dogs. He is good company for another dog and someday soon we may be getting another, so he always has a friend. Right now we have just one. We also have one Maine Coon cat (16yr), that generally stays out of site around new dogs. Our one cat has been living with dogs most of his life. We will create separation of animals if it is necessary. If you provide it and it is needed, we will crate your dog, otherwise we are happy to let them always be part of the home while staying with us. The home is safe and secure with plenty of space inside and outside. We are in an enclosed subdivision with safe residential streets for walks. We have dedicated space where our dog and cat eat separately, we can also set up feeding so your pet can eat alone if necessary. We can adjust access to food, so nobody (including our dog) has any issues. Dog walking is done regularly for our GSD and we are happy to take your pet along to explore the neighborhood.
“Ivonne is very sweet and friendly. She is good with high energy dogs as my Boston definitely keeps people on their toes. I recieved great pictures throughout the day. I highly recommend her!”
About: I have professional caring experience for senior dogs with extensive medical needs for over 4 years. I helped support the dogs owner through this unfortunate process till the end. It was a very sad experience and I miss little Winnie everyday, but I am so happy and proud to know that I assisted in making her last years comfortable, memorable, safe, and happy. Through this process I would schedule and escort vet visits, distribute a multitude of oral medications, and provide consistent quality care. My father recently got a rescue dog who surprised us with her pregnancy, I successfully assisted with the caring of all 10 pups from birth to about 4 months old and loved every second! I have pets myself, 1 adult dog and 1 cat. Both get along very well and are playful with other animals as we have friends visit for play dates from time to time. I currently work from home and am able to schedule my day to my needs so I can give your fur baby all the love and attention they need. I live in an apartment and am fortunate to live less than a 5 minutes distance from multiple trails, dog parks, and parks. I always take my own dog out for exercise multiple times a day as she loves to stretch her legs. I also have a balcony with a dog bed on it so the pets do love to go sun bathe from time to time.
“Manisha was amazing!! She took great care of my pup and was very communicative the whole time. Diamond had a blast with her two dogs and made herself right at home. 10/10 would recommend.”
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 5 years, my own dog, my brother’s 2 dogs, chicken and cats. I trained my dog from just YouTube and he is perfect. I’ve started to watch my neighbors dogs this summer, going for long walk and regular care. I’m currently on summer break so I have too much free time. I spend my days at the mall or at my brothers house volunteering to watch his dogs, even when it’s just for an hour. I have a fenced area and I’m very strong and fast so I can catch any dog if somehow the leash magically disappears. At home the door stays locked.
“Luis is such a nice guy! He has a nice home and is very welcoming. He took good care of our little maltipoo Marley. Sent updates and pictures while me and my husband were at Disneyland. Marley was very clean when we picked him up too. We will definitely use Luis again for sure!”

Si-Mon G.
“Si-Mon was a wonderful dogwalker and dogsitter for my 2 large dogs and we have truly missed her since moving out of state. She uses positive reinforcement techniques, which my dogs loved, and I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care when I was working or traveling.

I hope your dogs get the chance to meet and love Si-Mon as much as mine did!”

Hiromi was great at sending updates and pictures to let us know our puppy was being well taken care of. You could tell she had a lot of fun. She gave our puppy many potty breaks and I’m sure our puppy enjoyed her time outside playing with Hiromi. It’s easy to see why she has so many raving reviews and recommendations. I would definitely book with her again ☺️
Traci is the best. She really love dogs and she is so sweet with them. Not only that, she really cares about people and is really empathetic about the needs of the doggies and the owners.

Ashley was a total win. From the moment she showed up, everything got easier. No weird energy, no fuss—just straight-up calm, capable dog vibes. My mom liked her immediately (which never happens), and I could tell she actually got dogs, not just tolerated them. She picked up on all the Piper-and-Squishy nonsense without needing a novel. Like, yes—Squishy has armpit preferences. And yes—she will scream at you if you ignore them. Ashley clocked it, adapted, and kept it moving. That’s rare. She was chill, responsive, reliable, and totally unfazed by my chaotic messages. Exactly what we needed. Highly recommend. PS. Love love loooved all the pics of our babies cuddled up like VIPs—living large and loving life. THANK YOU, ASHLEY!!! 🌟🐾💖
