About: Lifelong Animal Lover & Experienced Caregiver. Iâve been surrounded by animals my entire life, raising everything from birds and turtles to cats and dogs. Today, Iâm a proud pet parent to two gorgeous cats (ages 8 and 4) who mean the world to me. For the past several years, I have channeled my passion into professional pet sitting, hands-on shelter volunteering, and fosteringâincluding raising a lively 4-month-old Doberman puppy. I have a massive heart for all animals and promise to treat your pets with the exact same deep love, safety, and dedicated care that I give my own. How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine Right now, I have the luxury of a completely open schedule! Since Iâm currently between jobs, my days revolve entirely around pet care. Whether your cat or dog needs a mid-day play session, early morning feedings, or late-night cuddles, I can easily fit into their established routine. This flexibility also means Iâm highly responsive and available for short-notice requests or extended daytime stays. Safety & Peace of Mind Your petâs safety and your peace of mind are my top priorities. Thanks to my background volunteering in animal shelters and fostering, I am highly attuned to animal behavior and body language. I know how to spot stress early and ensure a calm, secure environment. My own home is entirely cat-proofed, smoke-free, and tailored to the comfort of my two resident cats. Whether in your home or mine, I am meticulous about keeping doors secure, maintaining strict hygiene (especially with litter boxes), and following your exact safety instructions. You will receive detailed updates and photos after every visit so you never have to worry.
About: I grew up with animals my entire life ( including exotic and farm), volunteered at the wildlife rehab center, and local vet hospital throughout college. From cats, dogs, birds, snakes, lizards, newts, any furr or slimey critter that needs love and attention while you're away! Senior or adolescent I'm experienced with caring for any age, dietary, attention, or medications needs :) I'm a cancer survivor so caring for myself and pets its my job! I'm available to be a regular friendly face every week or supplement support when you have long days or stuck at work! I'm located right in downtown long beach and familiar with safe parks to take your pets to, or happy to entertain them at their home in a safe space :) I'm very attentive and adjust my approach according to your pets comfort.
About: With 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I specialize in the extra attention required for puppies and senior dogs. I am highly experienced in managing puppy energy, maintaining potty training schedules, and reinforcing basic commands. For senior pets, I offer a calm environment and gentle companionship. Whether your pet needs a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet cuddle on the couch, I adapt my care to fit their unique personality and routine perfectly. Iâm currently working in a school setting. I will be available after school hours. I will have more availability during school breaks. That would be holidays, spring, and summer. I would love taking them on walks. Depending on their energy or needs, it can be long or short. If thereâs a park nearby Iâd love to play fetch or run around with them. I always have treats on hand to reinforce basic commands.
About: I had a dog for over 10 years and after he sadly passed away, I realized that I still had a lot of love to give! Iâm currently a stay at home mom who absolutely adores pets, so my schedule is completely up to what your pet needs and what their schedule is! I live in an upstairs apartment that has lots of space for play time but also has cozy spots for nap time! The apartment has a secured front balcony that can be blocked off at request.

About: I always had pets of all kinds growing up and grew to love all animals. I have cared for cats, dogs, and all other pets for family, friends, and clients for over a decade by doing walks, drop in visits, and overnight pet sitting. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of time during my weekly routine to schedule any dog walks, drop ins, and pet sitting days. I provide the best care possible for all pets in my care. I make sure that I am observing the animals behavior to check if they are comfortable and follow all owners instructions to perfection.

My home is also open for doggy day-care! I've had pets my entire life (dogs and cats) and Iâve been a sitter/walker before. I love taking care of pets whether they're my own or yours! I love all animals, big or small. I've been around plenty of puppies and kittens so I know how to be gentle, effectively look after them, and give them the best care. I'm confident that your pets will love me! My schedule and availability are always changing as I am a therapist, so this section gets updated frequently.

I am only comfortable with what you are comfortable with. Safety is of utmost importance to me when caring for your pet. In my home, my dog is crate trained and is never home alone outside of the crate or a safely enclosed room. My dog is a pittie mix so she requires an extensive skincare routine and has experienced minor health issues like an ear infection. I am comfortable administering ointments, creams, and medications if need be to your pet.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Long Beach
From the meet and greet through both visits, I felt like my kitties were in thoughtful, caring hands. I didn't worry once while I was gone. Colleen sent lovely photos from each visit, including one of my shyest cat making biscuits on day one! She was flexible with scheduling, and even took the trash out on trash day, which wasn't something I'd mentioned in my (very lengthy) cat-sitting notes. It was clear she'd actually taken the time to read them closely. I would absolutely rebook, and I highly recommend her for sitting your fur babies, they'll be very well taken care of.

Stephanie is amazing, we cannot say enough positive things about her and how well she cares for our cats. Her attention to the animals and energy is unmatched, you will not find a better companon and caretaker for your animals. Highly recommend her for all of your pet care needs.
Mahima did a great job taking care of my cat and making her feel very loved and comfortable during the time I was away. She show's a genuine compassion for animals, and I could understand from the updates she sent me about my cat's care, that my cat was happy. She also helped me out with an issue I was having with an electrical device in my home. I will definitely hire Mahima again and would recommend her to any pet owner. Thanks, Mahima!

Bethany did a great job looking after my cat and making her feel comfortable with her. She followed feeding and care instructions really well and send me a good amount of updates, from which I could tell my cat was very happy. Bethany also showed initiative and offered to help watering my plants which was an extra un-asked for bonus that was extremely helpful. I will definitely hire Bethany's pet sitting services again and recommend her to any pet owner. Thank you, Bethany!

Gabby was such a godsend! It was our first time using a pet sitting service and we could not have been happier with her. She answered all our first time questions and really made our trip stress free. Our cats did really well under her care and weâll definitely use her services again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your catsâ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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, donât 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 Justiceâs National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

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 .

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
