“Nicole did an outstanding job watching are dogs, one of which is a special needs dog. She took great care of them and kept up up to date on all activities, eating, and medicine. Our vacation was so much better just knowing we had someone as caring and dedicated as Nicole. We will definitely use her again. Five stars!”
About: Family and friends have been coming to me to care for there pets for over 10 years. It is only in the last year that I have started house sitting too. I have loved every moment. Respectfully leaving there homes clean ,and undamaged. I have worked with senior dogs with medical needs as well as homes full of kitties. Reptiles, ferrets, chinchillas, farm animals and fish. I love all of God's creatures. I'm currently not working so I have what ever schedule you need me for. I love overnights and being welcomed in by my clients . Your home will be treated the same way I treat my own. I currently live in a multi generational household. We have 4 dogs a Australian shepherd, a bassist hound,a dachshund, and a terrier mix. We have 6 cats. And a fish tank. I will take care to fallow all instructions left for me. I will treat you furr babies with much snuggle and play time as they can stand.
“Janet has watched our 3 girls now and has been absolutely amazing both times! She’s always prompt and thorough and follows all instructions given. She is an excellent sitter and couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I have always had pets of my own my entire life. I am also the go to dog walker, kitty sitter, and fish feeder in my neighborhood. With my medical skills ( with specific instruction from you) I can administer pills and medications as needed. I am highly responsible and will treat your fur babies with much love and follow your routines to keep them happy. I am happy to take them for many walks and play as much ball as they would like:) As a homeowner and pet owner myself. I can appreciate also that leaving your pets in the care of a stranger can be nerve wracking. I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give mine. Since I’m retired, I have the flexibility and availability to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, cuddles or simply having someone nearby. I will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family in my home. I have a large fenced-in yard for safe playtime, they are welcome to my entire home—no being confined to a kennel unless that’s what they are used to and prefer. They will always be treated like one of my own 🐾 ❤️
“Hannah was amazing with all of our animals! She took the time to make them comfortable and took wonderful care of them. She sent detailed progress reports and pictures every drop in. We will definitely be a repeat customer!”
About: HELLO!!!! Thank you for stopping by~ I grew up with 2 maltipoo puppies as a child and have always had a love for dogs and cats. I occasionally cat sit for my sister’s cats who are now 6 and 7 years old! I have experience taking care of puppies all the way to senior dogs. I believe in bringing fun and unconditional attention to our pets so I promise to provide a safe space for your pets to be well taken care of! I love hiking, running, walking around my neighborhood. In my free time you can see me hiking, trail running and obviously hanging out with your bets buddy! I am a very clean person and personally believe to leave things better than I found it. I promise to send you unique photos and moments of your pets during the time that you’re away. I’m currently unemployed so I have a lot of time to play and have eyes on your pet 24/7. I can take care of the pet all day long as I have lots of time. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood/apartment so there’s a very safe trail that we can walk around. I can easily crate if needed but would need everything provided for me in order to do so.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including walking, feeding, and giving plenty of attention and love. I’ve also helped neighbors by dog-sitting and walking their pups when needed. I’m patient, reliable, and excited to care for your furry family member! I trained my dog Beau from puppyhood, so I’m familiar with basic commands, house training, and patience needed for young dogs. I’m also comfortable providing gentle care for senior dogs, including help with medication and slower-paced walks. Pet care fits well into my daily routine. On weekdays, I’m available early mornings (5:00–6:30 a.m.) and evenings after 4:30 p.m. I have mostly open availability on weekends and can provide flexible care then. I live in an apartment, so dogs in my care get regular walks and lots of attention. I walk my own dog, Beau, daily and often take him to the dog park for exercise and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and secure. I respect their space, follow all instructions, and make sure pets are comfortable and cared for. I’m always mindful of leash safety, locked doors, and keeping a calm, pet-friendly environment. Owners can trust that I’ll treat their pets and homes with the same care I give my own.
“We Love Mia! She was amazing with our very anxious aussie shepard. Mia took the time to communicate and confirm medication details which were evolving due to weather causing our anxiety prone girl extreme challenges. She can be challenging on a good day but when frightened, it becomes a whole different level of care which Mia handled beautifully.”
About: I’ve cared for my 13-year-old Yorkiepoo since I was a child, so I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I understand the patience, attention, and consistency older dogs need, including feeding routines, gentle handling, and keeping up with their medications. I’m here to make them comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love making sure dogs feel safe and cared for. I am a remote college student. Therefore, I now have time for a job. I’m flexible and make time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Since I already care for my own dog, I’m used to being consistent and attentive, so adding pet care fits easily into my routine. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I stay very attentive and keep pets secure at all times. I enjoy being active, so I make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and fresh air. I also follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules and medications, and I have experience caring for my senior dog with past heart issues, so I’m patient and attentive to each pet’s needs.
About: I work as an adoptions counselor at the Humane Society full time. I walk, clean, and work with dogs and cats daily! I have dog sitting experience as well! I genuinely love animals and I’m not opposed to any breed of dog or cat. Your animals couldn’t be in better hands. I work full time at an animal shelter. We walk and clean up after dogs daily. I work with cats as well. I’ve dog sat for 2 families before moving to another city. Since working with animals, I know how to spot different behaviors and learn how to control tough situations if something happens. I know how to properly clean after them and how to give them medicine if needed.
About: I have years of experience with all types of dogs. Whether that be fearful, reactive, calm, or excitable. I love each and every one of their personalities. I have always been told I have a way with dogs and understanding them. Each and every dog I meet is special to me and I always create a deep bond with them. I love each dog like they are my own. I will advocate for your babies in every situation. I volunteer weekly for animal control by taking care of the animals they bring in. I also work at a facility that does boarding, daycare, and grooming. I work in all sections of the facility. I will stop by and hang out with your babies before and after work. I will play with them and always cuddle also. I cannot have them in my home but I can always take them on adventures out to the park or the beach or to their favorite drive through.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Long Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Long Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 Rover's Trust & Safety page .
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 Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Long Beach with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
