“Kimberly has been very kind and is a great pet care giver. She knows what to do as far making your pet feel very comfortable with love and attention. Thank you Kim for taking care of our 6 year old cat Honey 😊”

About: I have about 7 years of pet handling experience from my own animals to volunteering at animal shelters in LA. I have worked with dogs and cats of all ages, from puppies to seniors. I have gained experience from my own dogs, one of which was blind and deaf. With over 250 hours volunteering at my local city animal shelter, I gained additional experience caring for cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters, and guinea pigs. I cannot wait to meet your furry friend! I currently have a very flexible schedule. I am usually busy on the weekends, but I could make myself free if I am given enough notice. When caring for a client’s pet, safety is very important to me. Following the owner’s rules and ensuring your pet is cared for and loved while you are away is my number one priority :)
“Sanaz was such a pleasure! Our cat can be a little anxious and we have a lot of particular rules for our cat and Sanaz was so patient, kind, and understanding of all of our crazy request for our queen. <3 she is so kind and trustworthy.”

About: I have 3 dogs at home, two small and one large. I have had dogs all my life and I am comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes! I understand the importance of the first time meeting a dog and will be patient until they feel comfortable around me. I have worked with rescues before saving dogs from the streets which is where I learned a lot of my dog skills as well. I love my walks with my dogs and would love to walk yours! I do currently work full time but I am available after 5:00 PM Monday - Friday and all day on the weekends. I hope to get to meet your dog or dogs soon! I currently work full-time but am available for evening walks after 5 PM on Monday - Friday. On the weekends, I am available all day! I have experience dog sitting and always follow the instructions the owner has left for me. I am a guest in the home and always make sure I am on top of all my duties. I triple check everything is the way it should be prior to heading out the door to ensure the comfort and safety of my clients pet.
About: So many friends and neighbors wanted me to take care of their dogs when i was just a kid cause they knew that i can understand their language. I was taking care of dogs and cats just as a hobby only for people i knew, but decided i can help more pet owners and make everyone’s life easier!! I have experiences with puppies and senior care. You will be receiving really nice photos of your pups🐶 I am at home 24/7 if needed no problem with that, home is fun with a furry baby we can watch movies and cuddle!!! I know that all doggies need different care. I am very good at potty training and obedience training. I also have first aid training🤍 Please read the following before booking either of these services: Day Care means: Between 0-10 hours Boarding means: Between 10-24 hours All of the pets i take care, they are my babies too!! They are all welcome for hugs and most importantly LOVE! For summer period i am free every day and i can start working really early if my client needs. I don’t like to go for walks so late for me and my client’s safety. I have a nice fenced backyard; we mostly play there and hangout i don’t let them out unsupervised. I only walk with leash, sometimes dogs see rabbits or squirrels and chase after them. We don’t want anyone to get hurt or scared 🫶🏻
About: I have owned pets most of my life. I understand that every animal is different, so I’d love to take the time to get to know your pet. I have no doubt we will bond! I’m currently in-between jobs. I typically work remotely, so I’m pretty flexible. I’d love to have regulars when I can bond with your animals. ❤️ In my own home, my dogs are a bit spoiled. They’re older, so I want them to be as comfortable as possible. They never worry about food, water, walks, play time, and love! I’d be the same with your animals!

About: What sets me apart is the love and patience I have for animals. I personally raised my sweet dog since she was just one month old, so I understand how to care for young puppies with tenderness and responsibility. I may not have formal experience, but I treat every pet as if they were my own — with love, respect, and attention. I truly feel a connection with animals and enjoy making them feel safe and happy. I’ve also helped care for pets of family and friends, and I always do my best to make them feel loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care during the mornings and some afternoons or evenings. I enjoy being active, so going on walks or playing with dogs fits perfectly into my daily routine. I’m very responsible with time, and I love spending quiet moments giving attention, cuddles, or just making pets feel safe and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow all instructions closely to keep their routine as normal and comforting as possible. I give them fresh water, food, walks, and lots of attention — always with love and patience. I respect the client’s home as if it were my own, and I keep everything clean and organized. I also take time to connect with the pet, understand their behavior, and make them feel safe while their owner is away. I truly believe animals feel our energy, so I always bring calm, kindness, and warmth to their space. I care for them like I would want someone to care for my own dog.
“Mona is very responsive to the many needs I had and flexible with her time. She takes great care of Penny and always ready to go above and beyond to help me out when the need arises.”

About: My girlfriend and I work from home and are able to provide full time care for your pup! We have a large fenced in area that is great for play dates! Both my girlfriend and I work from home on an alternating schedule so one of us will always be home to care for your pup! Our dog is an inside/outside dog that is free to go in and out as he pleases. We keep our doors open all day so they never have issues trying to get out into the yard.
“Almira did a great job sitting my cat while I was on a long vacation. She is reliable, accommadating, and communicates very well. I was able to be away without having to worry about my cat. I would definitely use her service again!”

My past experience includes working with children ages 1- 17 years old- from conducting medical research at UCLA Medical Center, teaching English in China, and as a residential counselor for a mental health facility. I also have experience caring for my two family dogs- a chihuahua and a maltipoo. I am located in the San Fernando Valley, but I’m willing to travel further to do pet/ house sitting. Thank you for considering me, hope to hear from you soon! :) I work from home, and my schedule is very flexible, so there won’t be any issues coordinating walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. For longer stays, I can simply bring my laptop and portable Wi-Fi, allowing me to remain fully available while continuing to work remotely. I currently work for a government agency and have passed extensive background checks, so you can rest assured that your pets and home will be in the care of a trustworthy and responsible adult.
About: Hi there! I’m a full-time hat maker and lifelong animal lover based in Los Angeles (West Hills/Northridge area) with a flexible schedule and a warm, easygoing vibe that animals seem to love. Though I’m new to Rover, I’ve spent years around dogs, horses, and reptiles, and I’ve even volunteered in hospital settings & a therapeutic riding center —so I’m calm, attentive, and great in all kinds of situations.

Sanaz took wonderful care of my two cats while I was away for two weeks. She visited every day to feed and check on them, and she consistently sent photos and videos that gave me peace of mind while traveling. She was reliable, responsible, and a pleasure to work with throughout the entire experience. I came home to two happy, well-cared-for cats. I would definitely book Sanaz again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter.

We are so happy we found Cecilia to take care of our two cats. It was a huge relief to be able to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that they were in good hands. Cecilia was super responsive to messages, very reliable and consistent with time, and she even managed to get our very shy rescue cat come out to say hello! The photos she sent every day made us smile and we knew the cats were happy based on their behavior. We would highly recommend and will absolutely be booking Cecilia again next time we travel!

Adriana is a natural with cats. We have two cats, one is outgoing and friendly, the other is shy and friendly. I didn't think she'd see the shy one for a few days, but during our meet Adriana sat down and the shy cat came running to her. Adriana visited the cats daily while we were away, took care of everything on our checklist and provided great photos along with a summary of each visit. 10/10 would recommend!
Lexi was super communicative with her post-visit, so I really was able to feel comfortable in knowing that my Lulu was being taken care of. I feel confident that when I leave for a longer trip, my kitty will be getting the care and attention she needs with Lexi.

I love booking with Eileen! She is extremely communicative and ensures that she follows my notes. Eileen also went above and beyond with my cat by trying different ways to get her to eat more. She also updated me daily about my cat’s mood and health as well. Additionally, Eileen sent lots of pictures and videos each visit, which I greatly appreciated. The videos (with lots of purring) showed me just how much my fur baby loves her. Thank you again Eileen!!

Leyla was fantastic! She not only took very good care of my two kitties (including sending detailed pictures, videos, and descriptions of her visits) but she also went above and beyond to take care of the unpredictable actions of my curious cats, too, without being asked. Extremely grateful and confident in the care for my animals while I was away. Will definitely rebook and recommend without any reservations!

We’ve used Silvia a bunch of times over the years, and she’s always been incredible. She’s reliable, attentive, and truly treats our furry crew like her own. The regular updates and photos give us total peace of mind while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have her—highly recommended!
