“I never really review things ever but this was my BEST experience on Rover, and I mean that so sincerely. Very polite and friendly, quick responses, thorough check-ins to ask about care, and it was very apparent that my dog was in fantastic hands during his stay here. I have left my dog with people that were “okay” but didn’t check in as much as I would like or didn’t seem to care for the instructions I had. This was the first time where I felt SO confident and comfortable that my dog was in excellent care. I don’t think I’ll (willingly) use another sitter. Thank you so much Andrew!!”
“Lara is amazing!! She took our puppy for the afternoon and evening…and took such good care of her. She gave her a bath, clipped her nails, took her out to the parks and let her rest peacefully at home. She was such a great care taker and I loved getting pictures throughout the day of my happy puppy! Highly recommend 👍”
“Carmen was wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the stay and sent lots of pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She took great care of my dog and I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I would definitely book with Carmen again!”
“Shane was amazing! He offered pick up and drop off, and was super kind and accommodating. My dog is training for service work and he ensured me he’d keep up with his training and be in good hands. He sent me many pictures and text updates throughout the day, and my dog was very excited to go back and see him each day. He is really friendly, has a great spot to accommodate pups, great communication, and his dog Cinnabuns is so sweet. I highly recommend Shane for all your puppy care needs!”
“Renee is truly beyond wonderful. Denzel loves spending time with her and her family to the point that he goes nuts with excitement when he realizes he's going to her house for day care. It's basically utopia for dogs.....lots of fresh air, dog friends, fetch and room to run. I always know that he is in the best of hands with Renee and after a day of playtime, he is happy, tired, and especially well behaved (a tired dog is a good dog!). We receive pics and videos during his stays and they confirm what i already know....Denzel is living the dream and having a blast playing his little heart out. I feel lucky to have found such an ideal care taker for my fur baby.”
“Absolutely amazing. She was so good with my husky girl. Nala was exhausted when I picked her up. Which is rare for a husky haha. Will be booking again weekly if possible”
About: My approach with any animal is to use positive reinforcement and a lot of patience. I grew up with dogs, cats and various other animals. I was heavily into 4-H and adopted a wild burro, raised pigs and joined the dog training group with my shelter dog, a German Shepard Samoyed mix. Currently, we have two rescue dogs. Whenever we host our neighbor's dog, all the dogs have a blast and act like they are having a sleepover. In addition to caring for dogs, I also have experience with a diabetic cat that required two daily shots. My husband and I work from home so there is always someone around. We take the dogs out for frequent potty breaks throughout the day. We also live near Valley Park and the green belt which are perfect for longer walks. In addition to my husband, I have two teenage sons who will also be here to play with your pup. We currently have two welcoming adopted dogs, Koko, who is the older wiser pup bringing calm energy, and Mango, who very lovable and wants to be friends with every human and dog. At our condo, the dogs have access to two decks in the back, perfect for quiet naps in the sun, and one deck in the front overlooking all the action that passes by on the street. If your pup likes to play tug-of-war, Mango will happily play and share her toys.
“I wish I knew beforehand how many dogs there were, how the interactions were typically handled, etc. I didn’t know much about what they did either, not even their schedule. But at the end it was all pretty good, turned out all 8 or 9 dogs got along, and that my Chouquette came back home with a big smile.”
“Five stars—no hesitation. Christy adores dogs, especially golden retrievers. We left our golden pup, Honey, with her for one day while we hit Disneyland. When we returned Honey had several new BFFs: Christy and her canine savvy family, with couch-snuggle photos as proof; and Phoebe (Christy’s own golden retriever). Christy’s day plan nailed all Honey's need—timed meals and potty breaks along with the perfect play–nap balance. Christy sent updates and snapshots, so we stayed relaxed and guilt free at the park. I had zero pet-parent stress. When I picked up Honey she trotted out tail-wagging, paws dragging, slightly heavier (treats happen!) and blissfully wiped out. We all slept like babies after our day at Disneyland, including the dog. Safe arms, golden fluency, endless love—Christy is our go-to sitter. Book Christy—your retriever will thank you!”
About: I only take one family’s dog (or dogs) at a time — never a mixed group, never a crowded house. That’s a deliberate choice, not a limitation: it means your pet gets my full attention the entire visit or stay, in a calm, low-stress environment instead of competing for space and attention with other people’s animals. It’s why my rates run higher than sitters who take multiple families at once — you’re booking exclusive care, not a spot in a group. Whether your dog loves long beach walks, playful adventures, or quiet companionship, I adapt to what actually makes them comfortable — not a one-size-fits-all routine. I’m experienced with puppies, seniors, medications, special diets, and pets who need extra patience. You’ll get regular photo updates and clear communication throughout. My goal is simple: you enjoy your time away knowing your best friend is safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved — with no one else’s pet in the picture. My flexible schedule lets me provide attentive care throughout the day, not just quick in-and-out visits. Whether your pet needs frequent potty breaks, medication, exercise, companionship, or a consistent routine, I tailor my availability to fit their needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. For boarding, I welcome one dog — or one family’s dogs — at a time, so every guest gets personalized attention in a calm, uncrowded home environment. I closely follow each pet’s normal routine: feeding schedules, medications, exercise, sleep preferences, and any special instructions you provide. For house sitting, I keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible in the comfort of their own home. I treat every home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own, and I keep you updated with photos and messages throughout your trip.
“Paige was a life saver! I planned poorly and had to request + book last minute while I had an appointment in Hermosa and she came to our rescue. Watched Callie for a few hours and communicated super well throughout :)”
“Kyle was wonderful from start to finish! He took his time to speak to us about his past experiences and how he sets up his home to properly care for the dogs Kyle was prompt at every pick up in the mornings and set us several photos during Kona’s stay with him. Thank you, Kyle!!”
About: What Sets Me Apart Growing up on 32 acres surrounded by animals, caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Because of that experience, I’m very comfortable around animals with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Dogs have always been my favorite, but I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats just as much, and I love building trust with each pet I meet. Over the years, I naturally became the go-to pet sitter for family, friends, and neighbors whenever they went on vacation. They trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and spend time with their pets while they were away. That experience taught me how important consistency, patience, and attention to detail are when caring for someone else’s animal. I’m also comfortable caring for both energetic young pets and older pets that may need a slower pace or extra attention. I pay close attention to routines, feeding schedules, and any special instructions to make sure pets stay happy and stress-free. What really sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. You can expect reliable care, clear communication, and regular updates with photos so you always know your pet is safe and well cared for. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine, especially now that I’ve just moved to California. While I’m exploring new opportunities, I love spending time outdoors and staying active. Taking care of pets—whether it’s walks, drop-ins, or sitting—lets me enjoy the fresh air and meet wonderful pets along the way. It’s a flexible and fulfilling way to balance my job search with something I truly enjoy—giving pets the care and attention they deserve. When I care for pets, I make sure to keep things as comfortable and familiar as possible. In a client’s home, I follow their routines—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, or play preferences—so pets feel at ease. I give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, making sure they’re safe and happy. If I’m providing sitting in my home, I offer a calm environment with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel at home. No matter the location, I prioritize open communication with pet parents, sharing updates so they always know their pet is well cared for.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16 years old. Growing up, my family always had a dog in the house. Within the last 2 years I have been taking care of my parents 2 dogs and have absolutely loved spending time with them. I work from home so I am available all day to make sure the dog is not alone and gets taken on multiple walks along with lots of love and attention! I live in an apartment with a big living room for a dog to play in. My neighborhood is very dog friendly and is great to walk around.
About: Hi everyone! I grew up on a small farm in the Midwest where I took care of our animals, including horses, dogs, cats, chickens, etc. I moved to Los Angeles for school and recently have lost my 18 year-old American Eskimo dog due to cancer. I am looking for this opportunity to provide a few extra bucks, but also provide a way for me to fill the void in my heart, as I have a passion for taking care of animals and having them in my life. With my past experience and my passion for animals, I hope that it is clear that I will take care of your pets to YOUR standards and do what is best to provide the care that they need. I’m currently in my last semester of law school and I am relatively free. I will be working from home, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. These would be the best days for me to routinely provide pet care for you. I currently live in a two-story townhouse and there is an outdoor fenced area. If I were to provide care for your pet, I would like to know what works best typically for your pet and see how that would work best in my home. If I provide services your house, I would love to know more about the routine that your pet is currently in so that I can fit into their schedule.
About: Hi! I’m Sarah! 🐾 I’m new to Rover and excited to meet some furry friends around Manhattan Beach! I love being active, spending time outdoors, and of course, animals! I currently volunteer with Forgotten Cats and have pet-sat for friends and family over the years. In my free time, I enjoy yoga, baking, reading, and exploring the beach. I’d love to help give your pets the love, attention, and exercise they need while you’re away or busy. I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for—and of course, send plenty of updates and pictures along the way! 🐶☀️ I currently have a very flexible/remote work schedule and am looking to get out of my house more as I work from home so I have plenty of time to hang with your fury friend! I have experience with pets of all different personalities and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. If your pet has any special routines, preferences, or non-negotiables, I’m happy to follow them and make sure everything they need is taken care of!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Hermosa Beach
Mindy was extremely thorough and provided us a Meet and Greet before a daycare session. She cares about dog safety, gives detailed updates, and photos. We recently moved to the area and are looking for a responsible and caring Rover to watch our dog when we go travel. We previously found excellent dog sitters at all our previous locations and are on the search for one in the South Bay. We are hopeful as Mindy's experience for a Meet and Greet and daycare were great!
I’m so happy with the care my dog Noodle gets every time he is with Carmen. She always take such great care of him and makes sure he gets plenty of exercise. I really appreciate how attentive and loving she is with him, and I always feel comfortable knowing he’s in good hands. Highly recommend!
Lara is amazing!! She took our puppy for the afternoon and evening…and took such good care of her. She gave her a bath, clipped her nails, took her out to the parks and let her rest peacefully at home. She was such a great care taker and I loved getting pictures throughout the day of my happy puppy! Highly recommend 👍
Sophia was fantastic with ChouChou! She was incredibly communicative throughout the night and very flexible when I had to pick him up late after an event, no issues at all. It was ChouChou's first time being boarded and she made the transition seamless. He clearly loved her. Would absolutely book again!
Kimberly is a wonderful, kind, caring, loving, and attentive dog sitter. I love her loving energy and her love for dogs. I found a perfect sitter for my dog. I can feel confident and secure while I’m away knowing my dog is in good care under Kimberly. I highly recommend her!
Denise was absolutely wonderful. We had booked her last minute as we wanted to have a beach day and were lucky she was available. She was extremely accommodating and flexible with our arrival and even watched Ruxbin a little longer than originally planned so we could go out to dinner. She was extremely communicative throughout and sent updates and photos. Ruxbin immediately felt comfortable with her.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Hermosa Beach commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in CA ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 .
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.
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 .
