Pet Sitting Long Beach

About: Lifelong Animal Lover & Experienced Caregiver. I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, raising everything from birds and turtles to cats and dogs. Today, I’m 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 fostering—including 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 I’m 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 I’m highly responsive and available for short-notice requests or extended daytime stays. Safety & Peace of Mind Your pet’s 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've loved dogs for as long as I can remember! As a teen and young adult, I would often offer to walk roommates' or friends' dogs because I enjoyed spending time with them. I’ve helped people and dogs of all sizes and ages, from puppies to senior dogs that need a bit more TLC. I developed an interest in dog psychology to better understand how they communicate which evolved into helping train friend's dogs until I adopted my own Staffordshire Terrier in 2014. When I adopted him, he was very weary of people and had a hard time socializing with dogs. Fast forward to now (and lots of lots of research into dog psychology and training), he's in a place where he enjoys meeting new people and other dogs! I'd love the opportunity to work with you and your pup(s)! I'm currently working a flexible part time schedule, so please reach out and let me know what you are looking for and let's make it work! Let me know how you take care of your pet and I will be happy to do the same! While new to Rover, watching, walking, training, and overall loving on dogs has always come easily to me. And as a dog owner myself, I know the importance of being confident that your dog (and home) is cared for in the way that they need when you're not around.

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.

“Nyla has been a very dependable and communicative sitter! She took such great care of my dogs!”

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. I’m 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 there’s a park nearby I’d love to play fetch or run around with them. I always have treats on hand to reinforce basic commands.

“Ali is amazing with my fearful dog. She is patient, great at reading my dog's body language and is very knowledgeable about training. I would definitely recommend her,”

“Nicolas was PHENOMENAL watching my cat while I was away for business! He was very accommodating with getting access to my apartment, and went above and beyond sending updates. Nicolas will be the first person I go to for my future cat sitting needs and can't recommend him enough!”

“Arash took great care of Leo during our time away. Communication was excellent throughout the booking, and we appreciated the updates after each visit. Leo did very well with Arash too, and it was clear he was well cared for. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Arash went above and beyond, and we would happily book with him again.”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and for the past two years I’ve been dedicated to pet sitting with a lot of love and attention. I live with Hickory, my sweet 3-year-old husky–lab mix—he gets along with everyone, loves outdoor activities, and brings a calm, friendly energy to every dog he meets. I’ve helped neighbors, friends, and family with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. I always make sure each pup feels safe, loved, and excited to be here! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of free hours to spend with your pups. I’m available for boarding on weekends and on weekdays depends on the day. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, extra playtime, or just some cozy company, I can easily fit their needs into my routine. I live in a cozy apartment with a private patio where dogs can relax, sniff around, and enjoy some fresh air in a safe space. My building also has its own dog park, which is perfect for playtime, exercise, and safe socialization. Hickory, my sweet and friendly 3-year-old husky–lab mix, loves meeting new friends and brings a calm, social energy to visiting pups. I’m very attentive to routines, safety, and each dog’s individual needs—I can follow specific instructions, keep things peaceful for shy dogs, or provide extra activity for energetic pups. If your dog needs crate time, I can easily accommodate that. My goal is to make every dog feel comfortable, secure, and truly cared for.

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.

About: Hello! My name is Chloe and I want to help you care for your dog (or cat)! I'm available to do drop-in visits with your pet and to take your dog on walks! My home is also open for doggy day-care! I've had pets my entire life (dogs and cats) and I’ve 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 have a dog of my own and she gets plenty of exercise and playtime despite my busy schedule. I will always follow your care plan for your pet. 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.

“Marissa was attentive, communicative, and great with our pets. She was thoughtful about checking in and her updates were clear and reassuring. I will be using her services again and highly recommend her to others!”
