“We had a great first experience with Catherine, she was such a pleasant person to work with. Extremely reliable and provided updates and photos with every visit - she really put us at ease. My MIL’s senior dogs loved her! Will definitely book again in the future, and I would trust her with my own dogs as well.”


About: I’ve worked with dogs of every kind — from mellow lapdogs to strong, high-energy breeds and senior pets with medical needs. My early experience came from being entrusted with working guard dogs in high-trust environments, which taught me patience, respect, and calm handling. Over the years, I’ve cared for: Senior dogs needing medication, mobility support, and gentle care. Puppies who require structure, crate training, and reinforcement. Strong/reactive breeds like shepherds, huskies, and pit bulls. Exotics (falcons, monkeys, tropical birds) — giving me a deep respect for animal instincts and safety. On Rover, I’ve already been trusted with senior pit bulls and spicy puppies, and I’m building a reputation as the sitter who can help owner's keep their dog safe, structured, and comfortable. I work from home and like getting out to go visit pets. Total dream job. What more can I say except let's get your pet care needs taken care of. I adhere to the owners preference of service, so that they don't feel as though they're loved one will miss out on anything except them while they're gone.

“Courtney did an amazing job with our little Maltese Teddy. It was his first time being left at home and he can be quite nervous around new people. Courtney came twice a day to feed and walk Teddy and reassured us with notes and photos that all was well. Highly recommend Courtney’s service and would use her again and again. THANK YOU!!!”


“Sami is the best caretaker on Rover. She did multiple drop-ins for me to take care of my two cats. Followed feeding/cleaning instructions perfectly and made sure to take lots of photos. Communication was on-point and I felt very comfortable having her. Will hire again for the next trip for sure!”


About: Rae has spent the past four years dogsitting for two lovely pups when their parents are out of town. She grew up with dogs, cats, and horses and can't wait to take care of your best friends. I am currently a freelance writer so I have plenty of time to play with your dog and take them for long walks throughout the day. My approach to dogsitting is taking note from the pups owner. I will follow your care notes word for word to ensure the safety and trust of you and your dog.

About: I grew up with two pugs and a Maltese, so I’ve experienced it all—from sleepless puppy nights and potty training to wild zoomies and eventually the slower pace of senior care. I’ve learned how to read dog body language, keep pups on a schedule, and give them the love and patience they need at every stage of life. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I miss having that companionship and would love nothing more than to spoil your pup with attention, snuggles, and care. Since I work from home, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention throughout the day- whether that’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just being there for companionship. I love having a furry friend around to break up the workday and keep things joyful and active. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a chore, it’s something I genuinely look forward to. I care for pets the same way I would want someone to care for mine- with lots of love, patience, and attention to their routine. Whether I'm watching your pup in my home or yours, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick closely to their feeding, potty, and walk schedules, and I always make time for play, cuddles, and any special needs they may have. I'm also happy to send photo updates so you can see how they're doing while you're away!

About: Hey there! My name is Erik and I grew up rescuing and raising Rottweilers, and caring for my neighbors dogs, cats, and horses. I am a proud dad of three dogs and two cats, all female except for my big ol silly male Maine Coon cat. I have a seasoned eye and heart for animals body language and non-verbal cues, and with two of my babygirl pups hitting senior age, I am no stranger to catered attention and medications. Whether your fur babies need some extra love, walks, or an overnight eye on them, I look forward to providing everything they deserve! I work full time as a Realtor, which provides me lots of freedom to make my own schedule and personalize my calendar daily to what is needed of me. I walk my dogs every morning or evening down on the Esplanade. My own fur babies are trained to use the doggy door out to the dog run I built for them, to keep them safe from coyotes and raccoons. They are fed twice daily, with fresh water throughout the day, and lots of sneaky snacks in between courtesy of grandma. My cats are also fed twice a day, with both litter boxes cleaned daily as well. My four legged kids know no boundaries in our house, as they are showered with love and sleep with us; however, I am happy to adhere to whichever rules apply in your household and work best for your fur baby!

About: I’ve grown up around and take care of a variety of animals, mostly dogs and cats. As most of my experience has been with dogs and cats, I’m able to meet their different and individualized needs, such as administering medication or providing light grooming. I’m currently a student in the South Bay area with a flexible schedule. I have the ability to accommodate to my clients’ schedules, and help meet their furry friends’ dietary and health needs. I primarily provide pet sitting in clients’ homes. I use and take care of the homes with respect and cleanliness to try to leave the space better than before.

“Ginny was AWESOME! Lisa cat is not especially social, but Ginny managed to engage with her during our nine days away and sent lots of fun pics. The house was well cared for and mail and packages picked up daily. I hope to use Ginny every time we travel!!”

I am available any day of the week to spend time with your pets! I have lived and raised animals my whole life. I love spending time playing and walking with dogs and cats.

“Gabby was fantastic with Lola. Very communicative about what was going on and what she was doing with Lola. Shared many pictures of food and water as well as their walk together. Couldn’t have asked for someone better to look after my pup. Will definitely use Gabby again and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to look after their dog.”


About: I have over 30 years experience with small breed dogs. I so miss having my own dog for the time being, that I decided to babysit not because I need the money but because of my love for dogs. It's been a wonderful rewarding experience! Since I only take ONE dog per stay, they get all my attention, lot's of play time and love. I will consider 2 dogs if from the same family/client. I have a lovely home near the beach with a fenced in yard. Think of it as a "spa getaway" for your fur baby. I prefer them to be potty trained, but no worries I will work with them. We can have play time in the yard and I would be home with them during their stay. I can take them on walks around my neighborhood if you like. I live in a safe community near the beach. I adore animals and will take great care of your baby while you are gone! I can't wait to meet your special family member and see if we are a fit! I work remote from home Mon - Fri and have alot of flexibility. Plus I have most weekends available. I am fully 100% focused on the dogs I watch. I have toys, a dog bed," my bed" and lots of green grass to run around and play. I have a large backyard that is fully fenced in, lots of room to play and explore. For sleeping, I can crate your dog if you prefer, but I usually have them sleep with me and they have a wonderful front view window to look outside at the neighborhood while on my bed. I currently work remote and have a very easy schedule. Dogs love to sit with me, play in the yead, look out the window and go for walks if you request. Safety is my #1 priority. I have a fenced yard, completly secure with plenty of grass to run around and play! It's a beautiful, tropical, relaxing environment and dogs love my yard. I never leave them unattended at any time.

rae h.
“Rae is an amazing dogsitter and dog walker. She has watched our energetic golden retriever Linda for the past two years whenever we go away. She always takes Linda on long daily walks, sends great photos, and gives lots of love. Linda has some challenges with leash walking (she likes to bite the leash), and Rae is great at problem solving and getting her to continue the walk. She clearly loves dogs, and I know Linda is in great care in her hands. She is my go-to first choice whenever I need care for Linda when I go away.”

“Brianna was so sweet and thoughtful. She dog sat my Milo for a week during work hours and took such good care of him! He has bad tummy issues so I’m always cautious when looking for a sitter but Brianna followed directions so well! I got cute pics of him throughout his time there and he looked so happy 🥹.”


ERIK C.
“Recently, I had an extensive international business travel schedule and my dog Zoe had just had surgery after fracturing her hind leg. I entrusted Erik with Zoe's post-op recovery, keeping a log of her medicine intake and eating schedule. He left no details untouched and demonstrated his bond and love with Zoe and any four-legged friends he came across. Erik is dependable and worked with my crazy work schedule to ensure Zoe was fed, walked and entertained. I'm fortunate that Erik was there for Zoe and me.”

Hollywood Riviera pet parents share their Rover experiences
Alex and I had a miscommunication during booking and she immediately jumped into action to make sure our cats were taken care of. She went over and beyond to make sure they were happy while we were away, even contacting us to make sure it wasn’t too hot in our place. I will always recommend her!

Carissa is always awesome! We use her every time we are gone and my kitty just loves her. She is thorough, thoughtful and just so loving with our kitty. She even helped out our kitty with an ant issue in her food while we were gone. She took care of the mess and moved it all for her so that she would still be able to eat her food without the ants in them. So thankful!! She is wonderful!

Catherine was AWESOME, and we would rebook with her in a heartbeat. She replied to my messages within 30 minutes if not immediately, and was very accommodating with scheduling changes. She was friendly and professional. She asked all the right questions to get to know our dog, Gigi, so that we felt totally comfortable leaving her in Catherine's care. Her daily updates were thorough and her photos of our happy dog gave us peace of mind while we were away. BIG THANKS for everything!

Susan has cared for my dog since she was a puppy (she’s now 6). When she used to offer boarding, she was always my top choice. My dog was so happy with her, I worried that my dog might prefer Susan over me. Since she stopped boarding, we hadn’t seen her until recently when I needed a check-in. Susan showed up on time (actually a little early, even better), gave my dog a great time, sent lots of photos, and spoiled her with all the love and scratches she adores. My dog was still excited and playful even after we got home. She was in such a happy mood for the rest of the day. If you’re considering Susan, don’t hesitate. She’s kind, trustworthy, and just a really good person. I have zero worries about her in my home, and I knew that she would give my dog her full attention. I’m so glad we got to use her again and will definitely book her for future walks and check-ins. (I never left a review before because I didn’t want to jinx a good thing. But I’m less superstitious now.)

Victoria was fantastic with our very shy Miso! She took great care of him and it was nice for us to be able to enjoy a vacation, knowing he was in good hands! She let us know how he was doing and sent cute pictures of him. She was very conscientious of his care and I highly recommend Victoria, she is terrific!

Abby is absolutely amazing. We are so lucky to have found her to take care of our babies. She is always on time, responsible and lovely. We are new to the area and were looking for a Redondo local — we literally couldn’t have asked for a better person, she is an absolute gem. Very thankful for the care she provided for us and we will be working with from here on!

Absolutely five stars! Jenna took care of our 1-year old cat (that we had just adopted a few months before) while we were away for 8 days. We were very nervous because we also had some emergency construction going on in our house during that time. Jenna not only came, fed, and played with our cat, but she actually bonded so well with our cat! When the construction was finished, she had taken the initiative to move our cat's food and litter box to their original locations (even though we had not asked her to lift and move them), because she said she thought our cat would appreciate going back to her old routine -- we were so grateful and moved by Jenna's caring attitude and the love she showed to our cat. Thank you Jenna!

We highly recommend Jaza for all your pet sitter needs! She is a great communicator and very knowledgeable! Our Miso is shy and scared and Jaza was able to create a trusting bond with him in just a few days! This was the first time we left him and he had an accident the first day from nerves. Jaza went above and beyond to clean and sanitize the area and helped him feel comfortable. Her patience with him helped me feel less anxious about leaving him. We will absolutely have Jaza watch Miso for all future trips. Miso was a happy cat when we returned, thank you Jaza!
