“Jovi went above and beyond trying to get our stubborn cat to participate while we were gone for the week, keeping the house tidy and going the extra mile to keep our baby safe. Thank you Jovi!”
“Audra was as sweet as can be, and just as wonderful as can be to my baby! Although my dog is standoffish and not as warm to strangers, Audra was able to get her to be friendly and polite during her stay. I would strongly recommend her as a sitter any day of the week!”
“Daisy did a fantastic job taking care of our cat and home. She sent pictures and updates each day and went above and beyond - even checking on our cat an extra time in the day and bringing in packages for us. We highly recommend Daisy!!”

About: Hi! I’m a 26 year old dog lover, grad student, and proud dog mom to my 6yr old doodle mix. I work part time as a SLPA at Rady Children’s Hospital while attending grad school, which gives me flexibility to spend time with your pups on Tuesday afternoons, Wednesdays and Fridays. I also have experience fostering through The Animal Pad, a local non profit organization. I’d love the opportunity to give your dog some extra love and attention while you’re away! Whether they need a walk, a potty break, some playtime, or simply a little company and cuddles. I know how much our dogs mean to us, so I’ll treat your pup with the same patience, care, and love I give my own. I’m excited to meet you and your furry family member ☺️🐾🤍 I work part time as a SLPA at Rady Children’s Hospital while attending grad school, which gives me flexibility to spend time with your pups on Tuesday afternoons, Wednesdays and Fridays. Your pets safety and comfort will always be my top priority! I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home and with a beloved member of your family. I will always be respectful of your home, follow any house rules, and pet care instructions you provide to make sure your pet is safe and comfortable throughout my visit. I’m attentive to their needs and will take time to understand their routines, personalities and anything they may need extra care with. I’m happy to set up a meeting appointment to make sure I’m the right person for your pet/family 🥰
“Tyler is absolutely the BEST! He is so conscientious, caring and most thorough. You will not be disappointed by his dedication and attentiveness to your pets. He is very hardworking and trustworthy whether it be about your home or/and your pets. Please do not hesitate when considering Tyler for your pets needs, we're so glad we met him and glad to know caring quality people like Tyler exist, its no wonder why he has more positive reviews from all other sitters we saw on this website. Thank you Tyler for taking care of our cuddly cuties, we appreciate you!”
About: As a proud dog mom, I understand that pets aren’t just animals — they’re family. Caring for my own dog has taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of routine, exercise, and lots of love. From daily walks and playtime to recognizing subtle changes in behavior, I’m attentive to every detail that keeps a pup happy and healthy. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, and I treat every pet as if they were my own — with safety, affection, and reliable care at the forefront. I’m currently in the military so my schedule is very unpredictable. There are times when I have significant time off allowing much flexibility or there are times when my availability will become much limited.That said, I’m big on communication and keeping my calendar updated. I only take bookings when I know I can fully show up and give your pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. If I commit to you, you can count on me! When I’m caring for a pet in their home, safety is always my top priority! I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure before and after walks, and I’m careful to prevent any escape risks. I follow all instructions exactly as given — feeding routines, medication schedules, crate use, and house rules — to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I’m mindful of potential hazards like foods left out, small objects on the floor, or anything that could be chewed or swallowed. During walks, I use secure leashing practices and stay alert to surroundings, other animals, and traffic. I also provide regular updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. Your home will be respected, and your pet will be cared for like family. ((:

About: Hello! I’m a lover of cats and dogs of any size, shape! I’ve watched dogs and cats since my freshman year of college & love to meet new animals! I’m working full time at Encore Global but would love to help out if you’re away, or need someone to stop by before or after work! I’ve grown up with animals for forever & have always been fond of them! I’m a caring individual for cats and dogs & would love to watch & play with yours
“Clara was excellent! She responded to a last minute request of mine and accepted right away. Clara sent updates throughout the day and enjoyed taking care of our 2 cats. Our cats seemed to fit right at home with Clara. We will absolutely book her for future visits and highly recommend her 🙌🏼”
“Eleanor was super caring towards our cats! She sent pictures every few hours of our cats & gave us updates throughout her stay! We would really love to make her a regular sitter for our fur babies! :)”
About: Caring for animals is a lifelong passion, rooted in growing up around farm animals and currently sharing my home with my own dogs and cats. Over the past five years, I have dedicated myself to providing reliable, compassionate support for pets of all kinds. From energetic dogs and curious cats to horses and farm animals, I treat every companion as if they were my own. My approach centers on maintaining a consistent, stimulating routine while strictly adhering to dietary needs and safety protocols. Having grown up with farm animals and hands-on experience with both young pets and senior animals, I know how to tailor my care to every stage of life. Whether I am managing high-energy play or ensuring a calm environment, I prioritize your pet's comfort and happiness above all else. I remain calm and responsible during any situation, keeping you informed every step of the way. I truly love witnessing the unique quirks that make your pets special, and I would be honored to provide them with the dedicated care they deserve. I'm currently working part-time at another company, so I have plenty of time to play with your pets or take them for walks in the mornings. My schedule would be from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., Monday through Friday. I could come on weekends, but that would be on an as-needed basis and only in the mornings. I take great care of my pets and others as if they were my own. I understand that they have needs just like people do; they are beings that require attention and good nutrition, which is why I like to take them for walks, play with them, let them rest peacefully, and feed them well.
“Julie was very accommodating of my last-minute booking request and made sure she had all the info she needed to properly care for my dog. Great sitter who goes the extra mile!!”
“Amber was amazing! We have always been skeptical about leaving our two cats with someone other than family/friends, but Amber was so accommodating. She even came over to visit and meet us prior to our trip to ease our stress a little bit. Will definitely rebook in the future!!”
About: Besides caring for my dogs I have a lot of experience. I’ve fostered old dogs until they happily passed. I’ve administered medication. I’m also a medical assistant so injections are not scary. I work Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., so I’m available for walks and drop-in visits during evenings and on weekends. Boarding may also be available depending on the dates and whether your pet is comfortable around my resident dogs. I’ll always confirm that I can fully accommodate your pet’s schedule and needs before accepting a booking. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions while maintaining a clean and secure environment. I have friendly resident dogs, and introductions will be supervised to make sure everyone is comfortable. I’ll also provide regular photos and updates so you can feel confident that your pet is safe and well cared for.
About: I have been a pet-sitter for nearly a decade. I was working with Peace of Mind Pet Concierge in Long Beach before they moved out of state and sadly closed their business. I have learned from the best and am always ready to care for pups and kitties anytime. I am comfortable with providing medication and giving the best care all animals deserve. I have my own pup and kitties, so I know how important it is to make sure my clients know their babies are good in hands with me. I work part time at the Crooked Duck and District 4 Pizza. So I’m always around in the neighborhood. Maybe you’ve already seen me at the restaurants!! 😄😄 I still pet sit on the side from families I already work with outside of Rover. I have also volunteered at Long Beach Animal Care Services at their Pet Food Express location in Bixby Knolls. I have ample time in my day to help with petsitting in and around my area. I care very much about the safety of pets and abide by all rules for which families have in place to ensure their pets stay safe. Some families have requested cats stay in certain parts of the home, while dogs stay in another. I am aware, respectful, and always follow the instructions of families’ requests.

Audra took such wonderful care of our two senior cats while we were away! She arrived at the agreed times, sent photos and thoughtful updates after each visit, and was always responsive to our messages. She handled their medication routine with care, cleaned up their many messes, and left everything looking great when we returned. Audra was so incredibly sweet with our boys! She spent extra time giving them love and attention and even offered to help with other things she noticed. It was clear how comfortable they became with her when our shyer boy even started requesting belly rubs! We’re so glad we found Audra and will be booking her again soon.
I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Jovi. She consistently goes above and beyond and I genuinely don’t know what I would do without her at this point. Having 4 cats can be a lot… especially when I’m away but knowing Jovi is taking care of them gives me complete peace of mind She doesn’t just stop at making sure they’re fed and taken care of… she treats my cats and my home like they’re her own!!! During this stay, she brought in a HUGE delivery for me that I definitely wasn’t expecting her to have to deal with, went out and bought cat litter when it was needed, and even cleaned up around the house. I came home and somehow my house was cleaner than when I left!!! 😭😭😭 None of that was expected or asked of her, which just shows the kind of person she is. What means the most to me is how much my cats genuinely love her. All 4 of them are comfortable with her, and even my extremely shy cat, who normally takes forever to warm up to people, has started trusting her and coming around her more. That alone says so much!! Cats know when someone is patient gentle and genuinely cares about them, and it’s obvious that they feel completely safe with Jovi 💖 She pays attention to the little things keeps me updated, and always makes me feel like my babies are in the best hands possible. I never have to worry about whether they’re getting enough attention or whether something at home is being overlooked. She takes care of things without me even having to ask 🥹🥹 Finding someone you can completely trust with your pets & your home is rare, especially when your pets mean as much to you as mine do to me. Jovi has become someone I can genuinely rely on and that is priceless 😭😭😭🫶🏽 I’m beyond grateful I found her and would recommend her over and over again. If you’re lucky enough to have Jovi available to watch your pets, book her. Your babies will absolutely love her!!!!
Heather took great care of our 2 cats and pet hen while we were away. Our cats quickly took to her kind and calm demeanor during the meet and greet. She provided a written note with fun pictures for every visit. We looked forward to the updates, which helped alleviate stress of our travel. She handled a couple requests that came up and was very responsive throughout. We arrived back to happy, well cared for pets and a tidy home! We highly recommend Heather, and absolutely will re-book in the future.
Jaime was such a heaven sent! She was so accommodating to my requests (even a last minute request to drop in a day extra) and sent our family so many photos of our animals! She responded super quickly to my texts and gave me such peace of mind. Prior to booking she came and did an initial visit to meet our animals so they would be comfortable with her presence. Our animals, with all their quirks, took to her so quickly and looked full of joy when she was visiting. She even helped with obedience training for our dog so her schedule wasn’t interrupted! Our family will definitely be rebooking Jaime on our next trip so we know our animals are safe, provided for, and loved while we are away. Thank you so so much Ms. Jaime!!
Andrea is the BEST! She makes my cat feel so comfortable and always takes great care of him. She is the only person I book when I leave town and ill use her services every time she is available. Very reliable and kind. Great communication so you always know what's going on while youre away. I recommend her every time!
