“Jordan is truly the BEST! She went above and beyond with my cat and even cleaned up around the litter box without being asked! She sent great updates with lots of details, photos, and videos which is huge for me! Highly recommend booking with her!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and pet sitter with over 10 years of experience and a long history of living with (and loving) all kinds of pups. I’ve had everything from tiny Chihuahuas and Yorkies to big goofy Saint Bernards and Dobermans, plus Pugs, Labs, and Dachshunds in the mix. I’m all about making dogs feel safe, happy, and spoiled with attention—no matter their size, age, or personality. If your pup loves cuddles, adventures, or just someone who gets their quirks, I’m your person! What I Offer • Dog sitting + daycare in a calm, structured environment • FREE pick-up & drop-off right to your door (South Bay area) • Daily walks, exercise, & enrichment activities • Medication administration (oral, topical, timed) • Positive reinforcement & basic training support • Photo updates, videos, and clear communication My Approach I use gentle, positive methods to keep dogs happy, confident, and engaged.

I can understand that pets get separation anxiety when they are away from those they are used to, and because of this I shower them with extra love.
About: Hi there! 🐾 I'm a lifelong animal lover, proud Australian Shepherd dog mom, and someone who genuinely believes our pets are family! As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry best friend. I also have experience working with aggressive or "not friendly" behaved dogs - I understand how hard it can be to find a sitter you trust and who understands the complexities of your pups behavior. Whether your pup loves long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply curling up for some extra cuddles, I'm here to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm naturally active and love spending time outdoors, so I'm always happy to keep up with energetic pups! I also understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. My professional background in event planning has made me incredibly organized, detail-oriented, dependable, and a great communicator. You can expect regular photo updates, thoughtful attention to your dog's routine, and plenty of love along the way. My goal is simple: to give your pup the same level of care, patience, and affection that I give my own. I can't wait to meet you and your fur-babies 🤍 As a event planner, my personal schedule is very flexible during the weekdays and certain weekends. Being a dog mom to an Australian Shepherd has given me firsthand experience with the love, patience, exercise, and attention that dogs need to thrive. I'm comfortable with active breeds, daily routines, walks, enrichment activities, and adapting to different personalities and energy levels. I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and creating an environment where every pup feels safe and loved. A perfect day with your pup includes plenty of love, fresh air, playtime, and relaxation! Depending on their energy level and routine, we might enjoy a neighborhood walk, outdoor playtime, enrichment games, or some cozy downtime. I always prioritize keeping dogs comfortable and sticking to the routines they're familiar with. Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn about each dog's personality, feeding schedule, routines, and any special instructions. I believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and adorable photos while you're away. I want you to enjoy your time knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands!
About: I am known for my passion for taking care of dogs. For me, to know a canine is to love a canine. I have experience taking care of dogs who want to play for hours as well as couch potatoes. I also have experience caring for senior dogs with health issues. The great news is that Monday through Friday my schedule is flexible from mid-morning on, so I have plenty of time to focus on your dog. On the weekends I am available some afternoons and evenings. I have a small fenced in yard. We are a couple blocks from the park and from the strand, so plenty of options. I have a big wooden kennel that works for most dogs if they want quiet time.
About: I've done walks, overnight sitting for family, customers, and friends. I love the comfort and support dogs give us. I love being part of it. I'll have plenty of time to do dog walks and overnight stays if needed. I love helping and being a part of the dog community. I have a back yard so they will have room to run around, and a big neighborhood for dog walks. Other dogs live there too

“Saffi was an excellent pet sitter and gave thorough reports with lots of pictures which was so great to receive while I was out of town. My cat is also suuuper shy with new people and she let Saffi pet her so Saffi really must be a cat whisperer! Highly recommend Saffi as a pet sitter!”

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.
About: I have grown up with pets and have enjoyed learning and experiencing different personalities. With my hands-on experience your furry friend is in capable and caring hands. I specialize in small to medium-sized dogs, but my recent experience with larger breeds has expanded my horizons, though I'm quite selective and open to it only if they're exceptionally well-behaved. My approach to pet sitting is all about creating a comfortable space for your pet to ensure they feel safe and cared for even when you're not at home with them. I understand that every pet is unique and requires individualized attention, which is why I tailor my care to suit their needs and why I only accept 1 client household at a time. I try to accommodate your pet's schedule so that they don't have to experience too much change at once. This includes sticking to exercise regimens, feeding schedules, potty breaks and bedtimes. I work remotely full-time which means I have flexibility in my schedule. Additionally, I try to maintain an active lifestyle which includes running and hiking. When onboarding a new client, I make sure that I understand the pet's schedule and preferences. Additionally, I make sure to understand any boundaries the pet should adhere in the client's home including yard space or even areas in the house. I do a walkthrough with the client so I know what areas may pose a safety concern such as gates and fences. I try to understand the pet's behavior in different scenarios such as when the door bell rings or if a neighborhood dog approaches during walks. I also make sure I have emergency numbers and the location of the closest animal hospital. For client's ease of mind , I provide pictures and updates as needed on the pet.
About: I’ve been caring for and training animals for over 30 years, with experience that started long before professional pet care. I grew up in the California desert, surrounded by animals – horses, pigs, chickens, bunnies, kittens, dogs, and even a turtle – and was responsible for caring for them myself from a young age. That upbringing gave me a deep love for animals and a strong understanding of their needs, personalities and behaviors. Over the years I’ve trained and shown dogs, horses and pigs, competitively, often earning first place awards. My experience has taught me how to work with animals, patiently, calmly, and confidently, whether they’re energetic, shy, anxious or highly trained. Today, I am a naturopathic doctor with a practice in Hermosa Beach, and outside of work I love spending time outdoors, walking the Greenbelt/chip path near my home. Animals have always been an important part of my life, and caring for them and something I genuinely enjoy. My kids absolutely adore animals, and are learning the responsibility, compassion, and consistency that come with caring for pets before we eventually get one of our own. As a family, we would truly love the opportunity to care for, spoil, and love your pets as if they were a part of our own family. I currently work from home, so I have plenty of time to play and walk your doggie! I also have 2 kids (Kai 13 and Mica 11) who help me with getting the pups plenty of exercise. We live across from the green belt, so it’s easy to get them outside sniffing around! We have a huge fenced backyard that pups love to play chase or fetch. We also keep them warm cozy inside at night, but they are not allowed in our bed.

About: I’ve had my own dog since I was a very little girl and have loved all my friends pets as if they were my own since then. I’ve always felt very connected to animals and I feel as though I do a great job at being attentive and playful. I have experience staying over and watching dogs for a week at a time. I also walk my family-friends dog weekly. I frequently watch after my neighbors cat which has taught me a lot about caring for them as well! I’m currently a student as Santa Monica College but do the majority of my class work online so my schedule is very flexible. Currently I am on break till February and have a super open schedule to devote my time to caring for pets while their owners are out of town for the holidays. I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have for feeding, walking, and playtime. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away!
“Couldn’t be happier ! Josh and Fi were incredibly communicative, caring, and professional! Also took some of the best pictures of my cat that I’ve ever seen. Would recommend to anyone”

“Keila is fantastic! Great communication and pictures. She leaves us with peace of mind that our kitten is safe and loved. Our favorite sitter and will be rebooking!”

About: Hi, I’m Shu! I have a three-year-old Corgi named guoguo, and honestly, most of my dog sitting skills came from taking care of him every day haha. Having my own dog has taught me a lot about feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic care, and paying attention to a dog’s personality and needs. I’ve also always gotten along well with my friends’ and neighbors’ dogs. It’s always fun getting to know dogs with different personalities. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to adjust to each dog’s routine, whether they’re energetic and playful or a little shy and need more time to warm up. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, so I’ll always treat your dog with the same care and attention I give my own. I’d love to meet your pup and hopefully become one of their new favorite humans! I recently graduated from UCLA, so my schedule is very flexible. I'm available most days, including weekends, early mornings, and evenings. Caring for my own dog is already part of my daily routine, with regular meals, several walks, and playtime every day. I can easily fit your pet into that rhythm. I take care of my own dog every day. That means two home-prepared meals (raw meat plus homemade dry food), 3–4 walks ranging from 20 minutes to an hour.
“We highly recommend Paige! From day one she was responsive and friendly. She goes beyond basic responsibilities and communication, allowing us to relax and know our two beloved cats are in her wonderful care. We’ve used a few different cat/house sitters over the past few years since we travel fairly regularly for medical reasons and recreation and have had various experiences: some were *okay* but too many disappointments on returns and/or heart twists about leaving. We’re so grateful to know Paige and know we can go away without added worries about our furry family members! Thank you, Paige!”


About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was five years old and I know how stressful it is to be away from our furry pals. My cat is 17 and is blind, so I have experience with senior pets who need a gentle hand. I have free time on the weekends and I’m happy to check in on your pet during your weekend or weeklong trip to make sure they’re doing well! Pets can be flighty when they are meeting a new person — especially when entering your home I’ll be sure to take care with closing doors and gates so that your furry pals stay safe inside.
About: Born animal lover, first pets were my mothers 3ft iguana and a small bunny. Grew to love the ocean as a lifeguard and all the sea creatures in it. Spent my summers in Montana riding horses! Special experience with turtles, bunnies, cats, dogs, horses, elderly dogs/cats as well as puppy training! Former tech worker, I am retired now and drop in to teach some fitness clients here and there but mainly home all the time to care M-Sun. We live a block from the beach and a park so plenty of places to go with my furry buds. ***Please note, we live in a duplex and have turned our downstairs studio space into a dedicated 1B boarding special for animals. Usually we use this space for play & sleep time. Our guests also roam upstairs with my family, including my 5 year old who loves animals. We have a small backyard as well and live one block from the strand and one block from valley park so dogs especially get extra walks at our house!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Hermosa Beach
Carolyn is the best! She is always kind, thoughtful and proactive! Juan and Lupita absolutely like her. She gives them the attention each kitty needs and always makes sure their litter, food and water are taken care of. It gives me such peace of mind knowing they’re in such loving and caring hands. We’re so lucky to have her! ❤️🐾

Jordan was absolutely great with our kitty! She is very responsive, thorough in her updates, and very positive. We really appreciated her videos and photos and were so glad that our little guy was being so well taken care of and having some great playtime for a few days while we were away! She also brought in our packages that arrived while we were out which was very kind. We’d absolutely recommend her for catsitting anytime! Thanks again, Jordan! 😊

Vanessa was wonderful! She arrived right on time and communicated clearly throughout the visit. She even brought my packages inside without me having to ask, which was such a thoughtful extra touch. Most importantly, my dogs were happy and relaxed when I got home. I would definitely recommend Vanessa and would happily book her again!

Lisa was awesome and super easy to work with! She took great care of our cat during our short trip away and dropped in help feed and spend time with them. Lisa was responsive and extremely communicative throughout the entire process and we really appreciated her updates. Really glad our cat got to meet Lisa, and would definitely recommend her!

Lauren was amazing!! 🥹💕 She was so sweet, caring, and attentive with our boys while we were away. She kept us updated and we felt completely at ease knowing they were being so well taken care of. You can genuinely tell she cares about the pets she watches, which meant so much to us! 🐱🫶🏼 We came home to two happy boys, and we will 100% be booking with Lauren again for our future trips. Highly recommend her!! 💕

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Hermosa Beach is $26 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $42 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 19,515 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hermosa Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
