“Natalie went above and beyond caring for my fivemonth-old Whippet puppy, Dasi! Dasi has A LOT of energy and requires plenty of attention, and Natalie was absolutely amazing with her. She spent the weekend in our home, kept me updated along the way, and was incredibly attentive to everything Dasi needed. She took Dasi out to play, kept her active, played with her throughout the day, and made sure she always had fresh water and her meals. I could tell Dasi was getting so much love and attention the entire time I was away. I even came home to a cleaner place than I left! I honestly couldn’t have picked a better person to spend the weekend with Dasi. It felt like Dasi had a better holiday than I did 😂 Natalie, thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of my girl. Dasi absolutely loves you, and I’m so happy we found you. We’ll definitely be working with you again! ❤️”
“This lady is amazing. She came to our rescue when our hotel advised us our dog could not.go unattended for any amount of time. She was fast to respond and arrive on the scene. She kept me updated with pics. Pinto was scared at first as this was his first time being with a sitter but I soon received pics of him chilling with her. Thanks a million from me and pinto for visiting us! 🙂”
“Great sitter! Julie kept her promise and took care of Lulu while we were away. She kept us updated during her stay, took tons of beautiful photos and enjoyed her time with our pup while we were gone. Will definitely work with her again :)”
“Lucky had a wonderful time with Lizett! Lucky is still adjusting to his life after being rescued off the streets, but he connected with Lizett instantly. She took him on many walks, which is he loves! She sent me pictures while I was away, so I was extra peaceful knowing Lucky is in good hands. She fed him and made sure to give him lots of cuddles. I am definitely going to get her to watch Lucky again.”
“Jasmine stayed at our home for the weekend and we were very happy with the job she did taking care of our two puppies. We will definitely use her services again.”
“Skye is awesome! Gus loves her and is so excited every time she comes by! She’s quick to respond and is great at communicating and sending photos and videos! We will definitely have Skye over again and again to stay with Gus :)”
“Anastasiia was wonderful! Her communication throughout was amazing- from the meet-n-greet where she was a pleasure to meet and asked all the right questions to her timely updates during the actual time she spent with our pooch. We came home to a spotless place and a happy dog! Highly recommend Anastasiia and will definitely use her services in the future!”
“Sarah and Karl are the best!!!!! The daily pictures and updates provide so much peace of mind. They take such good care of Ellie and make her feel so loved.”
“Liana did a great job taking care of our anxious dog. It looked like he warmed up to her very quickly. She did a great job keeping us updated and took a lot of pic. We will be using her whenever we go out of town.”
“Lillian is fantastic! We are so grateful for the amazing care she provides for our guy. He can be a bit mischievous (specifically when squirrels are around) but she handles him like a pro! She gives great pupdates and leaves our home in better shape than she found it.”
“Marianna was such a great sitter! She took care of my house, leaving it more put together than before I left. She took out my trash, figured out the high tech litter situation, sent me cute pictures and even left me with a little card and Polaroids of my kitties. My cats were so mellow and happy when I came home. Seeing pictures of them piled on top of her left me feeling so secure that they were comfortable. I would highly recommend Marianna.”
“Ashley stayed with our dog Obi for two weeks. He seemed happy and settled with her, and he was in good shape when we got back. She sent updates regularly, which made being away easier. She was also easy to have in the house and left things tidy. We would definitely book her again.”
“Kevin did a fantastic job taking care of our dog and cat for a week. He communicated consistently and left the house very clean. It meant so much to know our home and pets were in good hands while we were away!”
About: I’m currently a full time flexible remote work professional in Marina Del rey. I’m able to give your pet love and full attention in my home or yours. I grew up in a household with cats, dogs, rabbits, hamsters and fish at different times. I had two cats and two dogs as an adult that have since passed away. My favorite place at a party is with the animals. I’m a full time work from home professional. Mostly M-F days with flexible hours. I’m able to work one on one with my clients to figure out what works the best for you. Able to work anywhere with a WiFi connection and willing to do this at your home or mine to give full time companionship to your pet as needed. If bringing your pet to my home works best, I live in a one bedroom apartment in Marina Del Rey. My building has a dedicated pet area and walkable neighborhood with a small park for daily dog outdoor time. Willing to work with crates, medication or any other special needs
About: I’ve always been obsessed with dogs for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog when I was 6, and she became the love of my life. I cared for her until I was 19. She was my best friend, part of my daily routine, and went everywhere with me. Since then, I’ve had two rescue dogs, Nani (6) and Lupita (2), who are my whole world. My pets are truly family! They sleep with me, have birthday parties, and are treated with all the love and care they deserve. Because I know how hard it is to trust someone with your biggest treasure, I care for every pet as if they were my own. All my friends always leave their dogs with me when they travel because they know how much love and attention I give to every animal. I have experience walking, bathing, grooming, and playing with dogs of all ages. I’ve also trained my own dogs to follow simple commands like sitting, catching the ball, and peeing on command. I have experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs, my first dog had cancer, and I made sure her final years were full of love and comfort. I run my own business from home, so I have a super flexible schedule! I’m home most of the day, which means your pets will always have company, attention, and lots of love. I can easily adjust my routine for walks, drop-ins, or overnight care. I don’t host pets in my home because I need to respect my older dog, Nani, she’s super sweet but takes time to get comfortable around new dogs. Instead, I offer house sitting and walks at the client’s home. This way, your pet can stay relaxed in their own space, following their routine and getting all the love and care they need.
“Marie is an absolute treasure. I don’t think I could ever leave my dogs with anybody else. She loves them like they are her own and I’ve never felt so comfortable traveling, knowing that they were so well cared for. I cannot recommend her enough. She’s truly the absolute best. ❤️❤️❤️”
About: I may be new to Rover, but I'm not new to pet care. I have been a professional pet care provider since 2015, when I left my position at UCLA to pursue my love of animals. As an adult who has been in your shoes, I get it. Of course I love animals -- it's my career. But you need more than that from a pet care provider. You need someone with reliable transportation, who shows up on time, every time, rain or shine. Who has years of experience caring for hundreds of animals, and who knows what to do in an emergency. Someone who is observant enough to alert you when a vet visit may be in order. Someone proactive who can solve problems, instead of calling you at work or on vacation. You need peace of mind, from someone like me. It's my track record of delivering exceptional service that has allowed me to stay in business over 9 years. In addition to my 9 years of pet care experience, I have over 20 years of foster experience. I've been a foster mom for both dogs and cats, from bottle babies to geriatric seniors. I have extensive experience administering medications (both liquid and pills), injections, nebulizers, and subQ fluids. Being so active in the rescue community has given me a breadth of experience that is hard to match. In addition to pet care, I've worked in animal transportation, safely delivering hundreds of cats and dogs over the years. I have STA certification, which means I passed a background that gives me special access at LAX. This experience has honed my skills in handling dogs and cats, even in situations they may find stressful. As much experience as I have, I do not rest on my laurels. I continue to take continuing education classes as a member of Pet Sitters International, and I stay-up-to-date on the latest trends and technology. For example, for added peace of mind, I can attach an AirTag to your dog’s collar. It has never happened, but if he were to get away, I would be able to quickly find him, without relying on you or a microchip. If you are looking for reliable, trustworthy pet care, I’d love the opportunity to interview with your precious fur baby. Routine? I work with dogs and cats full time - every day is different! In the mornings, I may be giving medication to a cat or I may be airside at LAX, preparing a dog for a flight. Lunch I typically spend walking dogs while mom and dad are at work. Evenings find me feeding dinner, or playing with puppies. I have over 20 years experience with cats and dogs, from fostering rescues to transporting pets, working with unfamiliar animals in stressful situations. I've learned a thing or two about safe handling, comforting animals, and building trust. Although I am not a vet, I can recognize conditions that require medical attention, and I have a (lapsed) certification in pet first aid and CPR. Besides my extensive experience, I rely on technology and tools. For example, I have Apple AirTags and IDs with my contact info that I use when walking dogs. This has never happened, but if your doggie got lost, I have the tools to find him, without relying solely on your help, or a microchip reader at the vet. I have a first aid kit at home. I treat your fur babies and your home as if they were my own.
“When I say, Haylee is amazing. I truly mean it. She was so informative and considerate of letting me know what was going on while she was cat sitting. And I love that she sent me pictures during the stay. I will definitely be booking her again in the future.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and am a dog mom myself to my 5-year-old Mini Bernedoodle, Pippa. I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your dog. I’m extremely attentive, reliable, active, and comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, routines, medications, and lots of love and attention. I also have 10+ years of professional caregiving experience and a background in education, so being responsible for someone you love is second nature to me. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine closely and will always keep you updated with photos and messages while they’re in my care. I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate weekday and weekend walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m active and love being outside, so daily walks fit naturally into my routine. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s established schedule and keep their routine as consistent as possible. I treat every pet and home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions closely and always prioritize safety. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, comfort level, and routine, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know your pet is happy and well cared for.

We’ll definitely be working with you again! ❤️
Ashley was great! She was very interactive, and sent me updates and pics of my 2 pets while I was gone. My dog has a bit of sep anxiety which she handled like a champ. At no point on my trip was I nervous about being away, and thats such a huge deal for me. The apartment was left in perfect shape, I couldn't even tell someone was there for 3 days! Thank you Ashley for the great Rover experience <3
WHAT A GEM! I reluctantly want to write our rating because she is truly wonderful and we want her all to ourselves! haha Kristen is incredibly professional, attentive and a wonderful communicator. She is everything we could have asked for and more. We had a dog recovering from a serious surgery with a list of meds and an elderly dog that needs attention, which she handled with absolute grace and confidence. A wonderful person who we look forward to working with again.
Chyna was fantastic! Took amazing care of our two pups – both are rescues, anxious, and a challenge to walk. Chyna went above and beyond, giving them extra love and extra exercise – sending lots of pics. And our place was beyond immaculate upon our return, going so far as to do change sheets & do laundry. Highly recommend her & look forward to having her care for our dogs again💕
Josh and Fi are wonderful and have watched our pets for drop-ins, long trips, walks, etc and have taken care of them through health issues and sicknesses. They are the most reliable, responsible, and communicative sitters and we are sooo thankful to have them!

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred El Segundo walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in El Segundo maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in El Segundo choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
