“Such a wonderful experience with Victoria. We have a born blind dog and a senior pup and she was so understanding. We feel very comfortable with Victoria house/pup sitting for multiple days in a row. Very thankful we have Victoria in our pups lives!”
“Sydney was absolutely incredible. She watched our dog, Cody, over Thanksgiving and we felt completely at ease with her staying in our home. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and genuinely knows what she’s doing with dogs. Her dog Riley stayed with Cody and the two of them became best friends—walking together, playing together, even napping side by side. Sydney handled their introduction perfectly and brought a doggie gate to make sure they were safely separated at first. Everything she did was thoughtful and professional. Cody is a German Shepherd/Pit Bull mix and Riley is a Golden Retriever, and they got along beautifully thanks to Sydney’s calm, experienced approach. We’re so grateful for her care and will 100% use her again in the future. Highly, highly recommend Sydney!”
“This was our second long term dogsitting experience with Mariel. She did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. She took our 100lb+ energetic dog on multiple daily walks, gave him lots of company and playtime. Mariel was proactively in touch with us daily, with lots of photo and video updates. She also left our house in great shape. I highly recommend Mariel for dogsitting, plan to work with her again in the future.”
About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have extensive experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and needs. My experience includes cats, puppies, large and extra large dog breeds, crate training, senior pets, administering medication, and supporting dogs through serious health challenges, including cancer. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, loved, and receiving attentive care while you’re away. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions, maintaining routines, and providing plenty of affection and companionship. I own my own home in the CA and understand the importance of having someone trustworthy care for both your pets and your property. I will treat your home with the same respect and attention that I give my own. Whether your pets need active playtime, medication management, extra patience, or simply a loving presence, I’m committed to providing reliable care and giving you complete peace of mind while you’re away. I’ve used Rover many times for my own past pets and have always had a great experience with sitters. As a business owner in LA, I work remotely and have a flexible daily schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, companionship, walks and care throughout the day. Pet sitting fits naturally into my life and gives me the joy of having animals around while I am not yet ready to adopt again. I own my home so I understand how important it is to care for your pets in your home. I always requested sitters to stay in my home with my pets as I understand how important is it for them to feel safe and comfortable while your away.
“Andrew was an outstanding house and pet sitter . She sent me updated pics and let me know what the dog and birds were doing. She was very professional and left my house in great shape. Andrea is also very flexible. I will definitely use her services again.”
About: I’m a lifelong pet mama, animal lover, and proud work from home dog and cat mom! My furry crew includes Bella, my spunky 16 year old Chihuahua, Cali, my fluffy 6 year old Pomeranian mix, and my two kittens, Chai and Mochi. I’ve always loved animals and genuinely enjoy getting to know their unique personalities. I’m comfortable with all breeds and especially love caring for seniors and pets who need a little extra patience and attention. Whether we’re out for a walk, playing, snuggling, or just hanging out, I’ll make sure your pet feels happy, safe, and loved. I also love taking photos and sending detailed updates, so you’ll get plenty of cute pics and know exactly how your fur baby is doing while you’re away! I’ll treat your pets like family and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and good vibes while you’re gone. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which means I have the perfect opportunity to take a few breaks throughout the day to spend quality time with your pet. Whether it’s cuddling, playing, or simply giving them the attention they need, I’m happy to take a break from my screen. Plus, I love getting a little fresh air, so we can go for a walk, stretch our legs, or just enjoy the outdoors together. When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize their safety and well-being above all else. With years of experience and a deep love for animals, you can trust that your pet will be in capable hands. I take time to follow your pet’s routine closely, ensuring they feel comfortable and secure in their own environment. Whether it's feeding, administering medication, or ensuring they have plenty of playtime, I’m reliable and detail-oriented in every aspect of their care. I understand how important trust is when it comes to leaving your pet in someone else's care, and I’ll always treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own pets. You can rest easy knowing that your pet is not just safe, but truly cared for.
About: Pet care is already built into my everyday life. Three times a week I walk two 60-lb puppy Rhodesian Ridgebacks that I’ve successfully trained to walk calmly side by side. Every day I also take my own Black Mouth Cur on social outings to the dog park or dog beaches at Rosie’s Beach and Huntington Beach — over the last two years I’ve successfully socialized him to stop being aggressive. Mornings and late afternoons are set aside for client walks and drop-ins, while evenings and weekends open easily for longer visits or overnights. Because this is my regular rhythm, your pets receive consistent, focused attention every time. Pet care is fully integrated into my daily and weekly schedule. I maintain open availability throughout the week for walking both small and large dogs, with consistent morning and evening time slots reserved for clients. This structured yet flexible routine allows me to provide reliable, focused care without conflict. How do you care for pets in your home or your client’s home for the different services you offer? I provide care both in my home and in the client’s home, depending on the service requested. For walks and drop-in visits, I come to the client’s home and follow their exact routines, house rules, and any special instructions. For boarding or extended stays, pets are welcomed into my clean, calm, and fully pet-friendly home environment, where they receive individual attention tailored to their size, age, and needs. In both settings, I prioritize safety, clear communication, and consistent care so every pet feels comfortable and every client feels confident.
“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.”
“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!”
“Tyler was a dream! Took such great care of our dog, was a pleasure to communicate with, took great care of the house, and most importantly sent great pics. :) We would definitely hire Tyler again!”
“I am very grateful that I found JoAnne. The care that she provides to my senior chihuahua is unmatched. I appreciate the steps that she takes to make sure he is safe and comfortable. Thank you JoAnne!”
About: Animals tend to warm up to me quick so we'll be on our merry way with walks, treats and play time :) I usually have a few treats on hand if I know I'll be seeing them often (My dog enjoys hers as soon as I walk in the door) and I've got experience with dog sitting a few fellow friend's like Shih Tzus, Chihuahuas, Lhasa Apso, Schnauzers and even a Chow Chow (She was lazy, so it was a piece of cake! lol) I work in Commercial Real Estate at a Tech company in the day and enjoy taking time out to unwind by staying active with my own dog. I can't wait to meet yours! Please let me know if there are any special needs.
“Chyna is an excellent dog sitter. She watched my Frenchie for a week and he has a very particular set of instruction due to some health issues that Chyna followed to a tee. I highly recommend her. Thank you!!”
“Morgan was amazing!! Even with a busy work travel schedule, she still made the time to do a meet and greet with us before the stay. She left our home even better than she left it, even vacuuming a bit and brushing our two goldens without us asking. Her communication was great and she made sure to send us updates and pictures the whole time we were away. Our girls loved her and we will definitely use her again!”
“Reina was absolutely wonderful once again! She took great care of our dog and two cats during one of the worst rainstorms in LA, and ensured they felt safe all weekend. She’s great!”
“Lillian did such an amazing job with our two dogs while we were out of town for a week. We looked forward to her daily reports and she never disappointed. She was very respectful of our house and I quickly booked her again.”

If I could give Alexa 10 stars I would! She was absolutely amazing and made me feel so at ease all weekend knowing my baby was in such good hands. She kept me updated with photos and went so above and beyond with cleaning - I came home to cleaner house than when I left! 1000% recommend, will definitely use her again. Thank you, Alexa!
We couldn't have asked for a better sitter than Jasmine! She watched our dog and our home for a full six days, and she was absolute perfection. From day one, she was so gentle and wonderful with our 3 yr old corgi, he loved her right away. Jasmine is incredibly thorough, sending detailed updates with photos at every single mealtime and walk, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. When we came back, not only was our dog happy and well cared for, but our house was left in pristine condition. She is super responsible, and we would trust her to watch and walk our dog anytime. In fact, she was so fantastic that we've already had neighbors asking for her referral! She is local to the Redondo Beach area, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for top-notch, reliable pet care. Her photos skills are also great. I posted many pictures she sent of our dog Theo to his Instagram and his fans love them!
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💕
Elizabeth was patient with my skitzy little boy, and very thorough with making sure she knew all the routine details. She sent communications and updates and a daily report card. She is kind and loving and had to even release one of my monarch butterflies that hatched while I was gone! Above and beyond care and would love to have her stay with Bob 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!
Sydney was awesome!! I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing that Mystic was in good hands.. Sydney sent updates with pictures and videos of Mystic having a blast which I enjoyed receiving! :) Our home was well taken care of while we were away. We came home to everything, clean, tidy and just the way we had left it. Best of all, Mystic was a happy girl and clearly well cared for. Thanks Sydney! :)
I reached out to Lolita last-minute when my pup was sick and couldn't attend his regular doggy daycare, and I'm grateful she was available! She kept me updated throughout the day, was kind, and took wonderful care of him. My pup was excited to see her on day 2, which speaks volumes. I would not hesitate to book her again!
Lynzie was great. She kept us updated with cute photos and kept the house in great shape. She was also very responsive and responsible. She offered to go the extra mile with respect to things around the house. It was very helpful. We were gone for a while and she made everyting much easier. We would definitely use her again.

FAQs for House Sitting - Hermosa Beach
Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Hermosa Beach on Rover is $66.6 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 14,140 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Hermosa Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Hermosa Beach 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 Hermosa Beach 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.
Tip: 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 Hermosa Beach 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Hermosa Beach. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
