“Erin was wonderful and I’d love to have her back. My cat has had a lot of health issues going on recently and I was very nervous going out of town but felt so much better knowing that he’d be in safe hands! She was a great communicator, very reliable, and my cat was kept healthy and happy. Thanks so much Erin!”

“OMG. I had a family trip and my regular dog sitter was gone for a part of the time and I was seriously considering canceling my trip. Bridget jumped in handled all three dogs and the cat like a charm. We enjoyed our trip and knowing that the dogs were safe And happy. We have photos to prove it! I highly recommend Bridget!”

“Seth responded to our last minute request and was very responsive. The pets were well cared for, and he sent us multiple updates while we were gone! The house was super tidy when we got back, and he even left us with a cat toy. Would definitely book again!”

“Cassandra is a GEM. She arrived early for both our meet and greet and our first booking. My dog who’s an anxious guy and warmed to Cassandra immediately. Asked great questions and played with all Sammy’s puzzle tools. Can’t wait to book with Cassandra in the future! :) Thank you.”

“Lindsey was wonderful! She was so patient, caring, and loving with our girl. As pet owners, it can be nerve-racking to trust someone new with both your home and your pet, but Lindsey went above and beyond to put us at ease. Her communication, kindness, and genuine care made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.”

“Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..”

“Such an awesome guy! Just did a quick day trip celebrating my partners birthday. Super fast with communication, sent video and picture updates and Ace loved him! Cant wait to book again, we appreciate you!”

“Shelli was amazing!!! This was my very first time ever using rover.com and she eased my worried mind.. She kept in contact with me throughout the day with updates, photos and videos.. Mystic seemed to fall in love with her very quickly and even took a few naps in Shelli’s lap throughout the day. What a beautiful gift to be able to leave your puppy at home without any anxiety! Thank you Thank you Thank you”

About: I've done it all — puppy chaos, senior snuggles, and everything in between. With 20+ years of hands-on experience and dogs I've raised myself, I know what your pet needs. I work a flexible full-time schedule from my home where I can care for your pet and take breaks to walk and play with them. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I am available to sit them there as my daytime job is remote. I am tidy and leave every space the same (if not better) than when I entered. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priority. Having grown up in a home where dogs of all sizes were cherished family members, I understand how to read a pet's needs and create a calm, secure environment. I've personally raised and trained my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, so I'm experienced in adapting care routines to each stage of life. In my home, pets are never an afterthought — they're treated with the same patience, attention, and love I'd want for my own family members (human or otherwise). 🧡
About: I've always had a strong love for animals. Whether soft or scaly, feathered or fluffy, animals make life special and more meaningful. My love for pets started with a cat, then a hamster, more cats, dogs, and a fish here and there... Nowadays you’ll probably find me with my two orange cats and a Scooby Doo dog. In addition to drop-ins and sittings, my pet/animal care experience includes volunteering at PetSmart and the SPCA of Long Beach. It’s been a joy to care for all the many pets and animals throughout my life! I work full time Monday through Friday but am open some weeknights after 5pm. I’m also available on some weekends and holidays. My pet care routine includes feeding, walking, grooming, and playing. I love feeding and giving them treats, playing, and going for walks. I also love downtime and cuddling. I will follow your care instructions, be respectful of your home, and provide detailed updates on how your pet is doing.

About: 🦮🐕🦺🐕🐩🐕🦺🦮 Dog Experience 🦮🐕🦺🐩🐕🐕🦺🦮 I have experience caring for a wide range of dogs, including pit bulls, german shepherds, huskies, english bullterriers, bulldogs, poodles, and american bullies. I’ve raised and trained my current dog (Bruce Wayne) from a puppy and cared for my previous dog (Stella Rose) through all stages of life. Stella died from pancriatic cancer, giving me experience with senior care as well. I’m comfortable with all temperaments and energy levels, from high-energy dogs (like Bruce Wayne) to low energy dogs and older pets (like Stella Rose). 🐈⬛🐟🦜🐸🐢 Other Pet Experience 🐢🐸🦜🐟🐈⬛ I have experience with all different kinds of animals, from cats, to reptiles and aquatic pets. I particuarly have experience with cats, pac-man frogs, suckerfish, shrimp, pond fish, my grandmother's evil sun conure & golden jenday mixed bird, and turtles. Even though I don't have much experience with hamsters, mice, snakes, spiders, lizards and other animals, I am comfortable with all of them & feeding them their respective meals (live or dried). 🫶🏻 ✨✨✨✨✨✨ About Me ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ I’m very patient and understanding with all pets. I’ve worked with shy, agressive & what many would consider to be straight up evil (my grandmothers bird) animals, earning their trust over time. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Sometimes pets can have a difficult time eating because of how much they miss their owners. If this happens (& if it's okay with the owners) I'll typically hand feed them to make sure your pet is getting the nutrition they need while your away. 🫶🏻 ⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰ Schedule ⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰⏰ I’m currently a college student at CSULB with a pretty consistent class schedule & outside of school activities, which allows me to plan my pet care visits according to that. Depending on the day I’m typically available in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I make sure to schedule my time so pets receive all the attention, walks, and care that they need. I’m dependable and communicate clearly if anything in my schedule changes. 🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠 Enviornment 🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠🏠 I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment for every pet. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, including feeding routines, exercise, and any specific needs. I’m attentive to behavior and prioratize making sure pets feel secure in their own home. I also keep owners updated with messages and photos for peace of mind while they’re away.
“Mary did an excellent job caring for our 2 dogs and cat while we were away for the weekend. She is an excellent communicator, follows all instructions and gave our babies so much love! Will be booking her again :)”


“We’ve used Shauna multiple times and she’s nothing short of amazing. She’s attentive, personable and loving to our fur family members. We trust her. The only downside to giving her the 5 star rating (which she deserves), is others booking her when we would like to use her! She’s fantastic.”


About: Hi folks!! I pet and baby sat many years ago throughout school and undergrad. I am a therapist currently on medical leave who wants to spend some time meaningfully connecting with sweet souls who don’t use many words :) I adore animals and have had them my whole life (at the most, I had 5 at once! 3 cats and 2 dogs). I also regularly help care for community cats here in Long Beach informally - helping get them food, water, and medical care when needed is important to me. They’re a special part of our neighborhood! Happy to provide personal references. I want to know what will make you feel most at ease taking care of your beloved! Please do reach out if you feel I may be a good fit. My schedule is pretty open and flexible. love to have a little bit of warning for a booking, but I have a great deal of time on my hands these days. I will take your lead - let me know what works best for your family and pet, and I am happy to oblige. Beyond that, I’ll do my best to read your fur baby and their needs, and to provide accordingly. Safety comes first, attunement comes second, fun and everything else comes third for me :)
“Trixie was so excited to hang out with Kayana from day one. Kayana was really respectful of my apartment and really went above and beyond for my girls. They sent me pics regularly and even obliged when I needed more after a particularly difficult day. :) My girls and I loved Kayana and look forward to hanging out with them again!”

About: I've grown up with dogs. My parents had a dog before they had children. I'm used to both large and small dogs. I know how important dogs are. I'm currently attending school part time, but my availability is only restricted Tuesday and Thursday mornings. Any other time slot I am available to care for your pet. While I am unable to offer pet care in my own home, I promise you that I will take care of your pet like it is my own pet. Whatever you would like for me to do for your pet, consider it done.

Shauna has been caring for our pets for several years, first as our dog sitter and now as our cat sitter, and we couldn’t be happier with her. She is reliable, trustworthy, and truly loves animals. She stays in our home while we’re away, which gives us tremendous peace of mind knowing our pets are comfortable in their own environment and receiving excellent care. Our animals absolutely adore her, and it’s obvious she treats them as if they were her own. Shauna communicates well, keeps everything running smoothly, and always goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are happy and cared for. We never have to worry when she’s watching them. We highly recommend Shauna to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional pet sitter. She is simply the best!

Holly was great!! My cat requires twice daily medication and right before my trip decided that he wasn’t going to eat it in a treat anymore…If you’re ever had to medicate a cat that doesn’t want medication, you know it’s no easy task! Holly was amazing with troubleshooting and trying to make it a positive experience for him. She left our house even better than we left it. I would highly recommend!

Amanda kept me updated on Kelly’s daily routine, including her walks, feeding schedule, and relaxation time. She also sent photos of Kelly throughout her stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that Kelly was happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Amanda again and highly recommend her.

Lindsey was wonderful! She was so patient, caring, and loving with our girl. As pet owners, it can be nerve-racking to trust someone new with both your home and your pet, but Lindsey went above and beyond to put us at ease. Her communication, kindness, and genuine care made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.

Sergio was great and quick to respond! Really good energy and my dog liked him immediately. He was able to accommodate a meet and greet beforehand to make sure our dogs were cool. Benny is the sweetest and my dog was ready to go home with them right then and there. Would recommend 100%

Charlie and I are so lucky and glad we found Bridget. She is knowledgeable and pleasant with Charlie. She kept me updated with videos and pictures. I could finally relax on a vacation without worrying ! The house was kept perfect. I absolutely plan on using Bridget again !
Seth is absolutely amazing! I always trust my pup, Bradley is going to be well cared for when I book with Seth. On top of that he is so communicative and leaves your place very tidy and clean! I highly recommend him for any of your pet sitting/walking/drop in needs if you are in Long Beach/Belmont Shore. Thank you Seth!!!

Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..
