“Gretchen was wonderful! We will be using her again! Very communicative with lots of great photos! Trust her completely! She genuinely cares and takes time with each of our fur babies!”
“Jessica was very responsive to my inquiry and easy to work and scedule with! I really appreciate her being available last minute. Also, I allowed her to bring her daughter, and I could tell from all the pictures that our kitten absolutely loved playing with them both. It seems like he got plenty of attention, and their love for animals is totally apparent. I had no worries leaving our fur baby in their care. :)”
“It was a pleasure having Scott look in on my fur babies. He was very attentive and caring taking extra time out of his day to spend with them. I recommend Scott and will definitely call on him again.”
About: I have had my own dogs, cats, birds, fish, and gerbils. I treat them all with respect and love. I am very reliable and responsible. I currently have an open schedule, so can be flexible and we can discuss options as needed and work around what fits for everyone involved. I can care for any pets to suit the needs of the pets and their humans, and can adjust as needed to accommodate unique situations.
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.
“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!”
“I cannot sing Lexie’s praises enough. Our (friendly 😅) cats love her, and she’s been so patient with our feral trash gremlin. She’s always great about tidying up around their litter boxes; and has not only been consistently super communicative, she also always goes and above and beyond to ensure our girls are well taken care of. She’s become our go-to sitter for good reason!”
About: Recently stationed in Gulfport and just moved into our new home. My wife and I will go above and beyond when caring for your dog or cats. I’ve had dogs my entire life and have house sat and walked dogs for family and friends for just as long. We have fostered cats as well and have experience with many types of animals. I have watched dogs from 8lbs puppies to 100+ pound dogs and everything in between. I have a fenced in yard and I love to give dogs attention and am always down to take them on a run, play fetch with them and give them lots of attention. I look forward to watching your pets! I am currently station at Camp Lejeune and my wife is home, so between the two of us, someone will always be watching your dog(s). I have a fenced in yard, and 2 non aggressive dogs. We always supervise when they are together and can ensure your dog will be safe with us.
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Dogs and cats of many breeds. My family and friends say I’m an “animal whisperer” because all animals warm up to me very quickly and feel safe around me. I am a home maker and a stay at home mom so I have all of the time in the world to be home with your fur baby! I like to go above and beyond if I’m given the opportunity. I have bathed animals I’m watching and I also will wash their blanket/lovey if they bring it with them. I try my hardest to make them feel safe and welcome in my home always! I also live on base in a very safe environment and have plenty of room in my house for them to explore!
About: I worked in dog grooming for 3 years , while also pet sitting for neighbors and friends. Taking great care of them. I have a deep passion for animals. I do pet care as a full time job + career. It is my passion. My purpose. I spend everyday with animals and taking care of them. I have a fenced in yard , a dog park 3 miles from my house with a 1.1 mile walking trail distance. I live in an amazing neighborhood.
“Breanna was great, and I would most definitely recommend her for anything related to taking care of your pets. She did drop ins for our cat Simba while we were on family vacation. Breanna was punctual, communicative, and took great care of Simba! Again, a definite recommend.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Long Beach on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 267 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Long Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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, don’t 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 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.

- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 100% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
