About: I love dogs and how important they are to their family. I've been around dogs throughout my whole life and have watched all kinds of dogs varying in size and age, and will take care of your dog with the love and attention they deserve. Available to give them an uptempo stay including dog parks and running, or a more relaxed backyard hang if they're more of a homebody. I have a flexible work-from-home situation and work on-call in the evenings so I tend to have a lot of time in the weekdays. I can usually accommodate last-minute care if my availability is free. I'll treat your dog like my own, and give them all of the love and attention they want. We have a 12-year-old dog (mixed-breed, medium size) who loves company and will welcome your dog with open paws. I'm comfortable walking multiple dogs at a time, and willing to get your dog plenty of exercise if they're more active, or taking it a little easier if they aren't as energetic.

About: I am a former pet dog trainer and working K9 handler who would love the chance to meet your dog and treat them like my own! I have two black labradors (one is a certified bomb dog) that I love dearly and have trained myself. I've been around many many different dogs, and traveled thousands of miles for training and seminars to learn from the best of the best! My experience is different from a lot of other dog walkers because I understand both training and behavior. I have had the pleasure of working with pet dogs who just want a good scratch, to dogs with insane drive who sniff drugs and bombs for a living. I've seen it all! Nothing really phases me, and I believe every dog needs a good outlet for their drives and to be treated with respect and love. Between walks, training, and check-ins, I'm pretty busy! But this is what I dedicated most of my time too, so it fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I love kicking things off with a Meet & Greet to bond with your pets and cover all the vital details before I walk them or do a drop in. You can expect regular check-ins filled with photos and videos so you never miss a beat! I make it a point to learn your pet's routine, including health needs, meals, and favorite games. Plus, you can rest easy knowing safety is always a priority; I thoroughly check all walking gear and leashes before we ever step out the door. I also work on their manners not rushing out the door so they are always safe (an open door doesn't mean a free for all). And as a bonus, I like to work on some light obedience!

About: I have been dogsitting for friends and family for around 6 years and this includes boarding and walking. I love to be active and my preferred form of exercise is running, so I would be more than happy to take your pup for a run with me! I'm currently available every week day in the morning and can do evenings upon request. I can also accommodate weekends if discussed ahead of time! I put the needs of your pet above all else. Whatever type of care that is needed will be taken care of to the highest of degrees.

About: I missed having dogs at home. Unfortunately I lost both of them last year. I had them for 16yrs. I have experience with senior dogs. I know how to put injections such as Insuline shots and give them medicine. I live in Long Beach, very close to LBG, very convenient airport. I like to keep the dogs at the house and just have a daily routine as they do at own home. I tried not to take them to places unless is required. I'm currently working part time and working from home. I'm available most week days and weekends. I'd rather take reservations from Thursday thru Sunday and some holidays too. Only one family at the time, no more than 3 pets. I just moved to Long Beach. Bixby Knolls area. Very close to Long Beach Airport. Very convenient and easy airport to flight from. Safe environment, a lot of places to go for a walk and 3 story townhouse, hard wood floors with small balcony, small patio and garage. Enough space to spoiled your dog. Gates to keep the dogs away from the stairs as well.

About: I’ve always grown up around dogs. My favorite breed are pitbull but I have two beagles at the moment. I’ll obey any instructions you have for your pet, I do my best not to feed into bad dog behaviors. I’ve taken care of my family members dogs and multiple dogs at once. I’m good at cleaning up after dogs too. I’m currently studying for my CPA exams, so pet care will easily fit into my weekly routine. I prefer to walk any animal before the sunsets, but being at someone’s home is fine any time. I’m good at cleaning up after animals and myself. I have two beagles so I prefer not to do anything at my house. But I’m more than willing to take care of any pets at their house.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! From small Pomeranians to an 80 pound pitbull, so I feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Dogs tend to gravitate towards my calm and nurturing energy, and if they love to play, I love being able to get out and exercise with them :) I work from home M-F (9-5) so am very flexible and open throughout the week to care for your pets need, whether it be a drop in or a an overnight visit I can be available. Offering a wide range of care, your dog can expect frequent walks if it fits their needs and attentiveness to their diet. I’m very careful with pets as I’ve had various experiences with my own pets so I’m always sure to communicate and ask questions if I need more information to care for your pet.

About: My lifelong experience and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to gentle seniors. I’ve completed puppy training classes with my own dog, so I understand how to teach patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. My years of volunteering at animal shelters taught me how to handle pets with different personalities and needs. I treat every animal like my own, giving them the care, attention, and affection they deserve. I’m currently going to college and have classes Monday through Thursday, but on Tuesdays and Thursdays I only have morning classes! I have plenty of time during the evening on Tuesdays and Thursdays as well as most of the day Friday through Sunday to spend quality time with your pets! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to keep their routine consistent and stress free. I’ll follow all feeding, walking, and medication instructions carefully and give them plenty of attention and playtime. I always keep their space clean, provide fresh water, and make sure they feel comfortable and safe while their owner is away. I love spending quality time with each pet; whether it’s cuddling, playing, or going for walks, so they feel loved and cared for until you return.

About: currently working in an animal emergency hospital for 4 years! i’ve worked with dogs 3x my weight, and cats who climb the walls. there is nothing new to me in the animal field working 5 days a week at an animal emergency hospital, most are early shifts so i have a big bulk of my day free to pet sit! mentally i’m never really clocked out the key is to have your energy feel as if your at ease with the pet no matter the environment. they can definitely sense your energy! i’m high energy myself and can be the best for really active pets, whether it’s going out for runs or playing fetch, or providing mentally stimulating treat games with them!

About: I’ve taken care of family’s pets and my own for the past 11 years. My dog is my baby and I will treat yours like one! Any type of help you need, I will exercise your pet, wash them, administer medicine. They will be well taken care of! Currently working full-time during the week. I am mostly available on weekends: Fridays: 6:30pm-night Saturdays: 1pm-night Sundays: all day I can make myself available on weekday nights 6:30pm - evening depending on the situation. Dogs will tell you what they need. I take them for potty breaks frequently and if they are telling me they want more play time I will give them extra play time. When they are more tired I will give them space to rest. Sometimes when they have attitude I have to be stern and tell them it’s not time for extra treats xD they like to be challenged so I do like to train them to do some tricks. My dog knows how to roll over, beg, and wait amongst several other tricks. Dogs like the direction and having a job to do. I have the patience to help them learn how to wait and walk properly on a leash without pulling. It takes time but it is doable!!

Brittany was so sweet and wonderful! She took care of our Golden while we were away and was so accommodating to our schedule. She is so great with dogs and we could tell immediately that our dog would be comfortable with her. She took him on long walks, played with him, and made sure he was happy while we were away. Thank you again! Would highly recommend Brittany to anyone in need of a dog sitter!

Marby was wonderful. She took extra special care of our cats, one of which had a wounded paw and needed extra attention. She kept in touch with us every day and left the house clean, floors vacuumed and trash emptied. Truly a great house/pet sitter. Could not recommend enough and will hire her again.

About: I’ve been doing pet sitting for over 3 years & have experience in all types of animals & am familiar with giving medication if needed. My main goal is to always ensure that your pet is cared for 100% and that you come back to a clean environment. Will also bring in/take out trash, water plants & bring in mail. I currently work part time so this leaves me with time to spend caring for animals. I am currently available for morning visits from 8am -10am Afternoons 12-3pm Pm 4-7pm Can also do overnight visits on weekends if needed. When I am caring for an animal at a clinics home I always make sure to ask for any information or their routine with their pup. Not only to ensure that I am doing everything right & that needs to be done for your pup but to keep your pup in their routine. This will allow me to get familiar with the feeding, walking, etc. Safety of your pup and your home is my top priority & I ensure this by always making sure to close all doors/windows in your home & set alarm if needed

Karen did such a wonderful job of looking after our two kitties! I’m always anxious to leave them, but Karen made sure they were fed and loved while we were away. She also scooped the litter box and gave them treats and extra attention during her visits, which made coming home so much less stressful. You can tell Karen genuinely cares, and I had so much peace of mind with her updates and photos. Thank you for making sure our kitties were happy and loved!

I couldn't ask for a better sitter. Allison took prompt and attentive care of Vivi every day. She sent plenty of pictures and confirmed all of Vivi's care instructions. When they AC wasn't turning on, Allison replaced the batteries in the control unit to ensure my apartment didn't get too hot. Will definitely be booking again!

Stephanie took care of my cat Levi for three weeks while I was traveling. She is incredibly communicative and flexible, she worked with me to figure out a plan that worked best and was super helpful in the booking process! She definitely puts her clients first. She cared for Levi so well, sending me so many photos of him which was amazing 😻 She played with him so much and I know he felt very loved and safe. I have never been so at ease leaving him and this was the longest time I’ve been gone! Stephanie is an incredible cat sitter and so communicative. I’ll be booking her again when I go out of town next month, and will recommend her the first chance I get!

Meghan stepped in at the last minute to care for our cat when our previous sitter had a medical emergency. We were on the East Coast when a Rover employee called & said that our sitter was hospitalized & that they were looking for an emergency replacement. We had a few options, but Meghan was the most responsive and had great reviews. We hadn't even met her, but we truly got lucky that she volunteered to step in. We look forward to meeting her in person the next time that we book through Rover, because we will definitely try to book her the next time we travel.

Sarah definitely calmed our nerves of leaving our cat behind on a trip. She completed her drop-in visits on time, was very respectful to our house, and treated our cat like her own. We loved receiving the many pictures and videos she sent. I highly recommend Sarah if you're looking for a sitter to look after your cat with the utmost care.

Michelle is amazing! My 15 year old pup has a lot of special needs, she wasn’t phased by my long list of all his needs which really put my mind at ease. She sent multiple pictures and updates throughout the visit and administered oral meds for me. As a dog mom who’s overly protective and anxious leaving my baby with others, I highly recommend Michelle!🩷

We are so grateful that we found Bridge to pet sit our cat!! This was our first trip since adopting our cat, Leo, and we had never left him alone for more than a full day before, so we were honestly very nervous. She kindly arranged a thorough meet & greet beforehand, which helped make sure there were no worries for either us or Leo. Leo immediately loved her! 🐾 We’re really grateful for her professionalism and flexibility. If we travel again, we would absolutely love to ask her to pet sit for us again! 💛
