“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was my first time working with Kristin, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience! 🐱💙🐱💕 From the moment I met her, she had such a gentle, kind demeanor that I immediately felt comfortable trusting her with my two cats, Oreo and Nala. She even started taking notes during our meet-and-greet, which I truly appreciated. Even though I already had detailed written instructions, it showed me that she was prepared, proactive, and genuinely wanted to make sure everything was done perfectly. 📝✨ Kristin followed every instruction carefully and thoroughly, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. The biggest surprise of all was my super shy girl, Nala. She normally takes quite a while to warm up to new people, but by just the second visit she was already out and about hanging out with Kristin! 🥹💕 That is a huge deal and really speaks to how patient, calm, and caring she is with animals. Knowing that Oreo and Nala were comfortable, happy, and so well cared for made my trip so much more enjoyable. This was such a wonderful first experience that I’ve already booked future visits with Kristin! 🐾❤️ I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, attentive pet sitter. Thank you again for taking such amazing care of my babies! 🥰”
About: I have been a in-home pet sitter for the past six years for a medium size dog who had special needs as a puppy. I also am a pet photographer and have done pet portraits and holiday cards! I recently lost my beloved dog Zoey, who I had for over 12 years. I love dogs deeply, and welcome them into my home. I am available on a part time basis with more availability during the summer months. Weekends are ideal but I can be available after 5pm on weekdays or early morning. I live in a pet friendly apartment building, in a dog friendly neighborhood! My apartment is in the smaller side but dog and cat safe!
“Lisa did visits with my cat Pippy for a week and I could not have been happier! She came each visit at the requested time and played so sweetly with Pippy. I loved getting photos and video from each visit and I saw how happy Pippy was. Lisa made Pippy so comfortable that she was happy to play each visit. I will book Lisa again for future visits!”
“Becky looked after my cat Klover on Christmas and was nothing but kind, sweet and attentive. Typical cat behavior, Klover doesn’t usually greet people but was out and about when Becky was there. I definitely recommend her as a sitter!”
“Ricardo is fabulous. I have a rescue that is very skeptical but took to Ricardo quickly. He follows my wishes and I’m very grateful to have him taking such good care of bingo!”
About: I have owned a dog my whole life and have been taking care of friends dogs since I was 10 years old. the dogs were all different sizes and breeds I currently am a full time medical student with relatively flexible hours.

I am respectful of any space I am in and will be sure to provide the best care for ur pet while staying in your space
“Angela has been an Angel for us. I literally do not know what I would have done without her. Our booking was too short notice for a meet and greet (like it’s 9pm and we need someone for the next several days starting tomorrow). She answered our distress call and made it work with two recently adopted regressing special needs puppies. She’s very communicative, and took lots of photos during her visits. She is prompt and punctual and just really amazing with our puppies. They are normally terrified of everything and everyone but Angela is super patient and sweet and the dogs trusted her like immediately. Her visits changed our potty training trajectory, they were regressing and all of a sudden afraid of outside, but Angela came through and somehow turned it all around. So thankful to have found her.”
“Jamie was amazing! I just recently adopted my pup and was nervous about leaving him for a long period of time. Jamie helped ease my mind as a new dog mom and took such good care of Roger. She’s super responsive and makes sure to send updates! Would definitely use her again!”
About: I treat every pet as if they were my own. What sets me apart is my attention to each pet’s unique personality, routine, and comfort level—I take the time to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable handling pets with anxiety and work to create a calm, reassuring environment. You will always get consistent updates and clear communication, so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working in a high school so I am home early by 2:45 and have availability for the remainder of the evening! Pets stay in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they’re treated like part of the family. I stick closely to their usual feeding, walking, and sleeping schedules to help them feel at ease. There’s plenty of supervised playtime, affection, and downtime, depending on their personality. I also make sure the space is pet-friendly and secure at all times.

“Kenny helped us with a last minute booking for our 3 beloved dogs. We needed to be away from home for an entire day. He accommodated meeting us last minute the day before our trip, he was very professional and we could tell right away his love and commitment to his work. He made us feel at ease with messages and photos. He came back and forth 4x throughout the day and gave them plenty of outside time and bonding with them, he was able to get our finicky dogs to eat. We are going to call on Kenny again because he made sure they were comfortable while we were away from home.”
“Stacey was incredibly patient, helpful and respectful! She took the time to get to know our dog before doing a drop in visit for over an hour and taking her for a walk. Took many pictures and did more than I could ask.”

I can easily fit in whatever care you need between my projects and galleries. In your home, I'll treat your pets like my own! I'm lively but clean- it'll be like I was never there. I promise to be respectful of your space!
About: Hi! I’m Mike! I live in Long Beach. I work in the city 3 days a week, but I can choose which days I go in. So, I can be flexible!

I would routinely walk strong dogs with a lot of energy and was involved in training them to walk better on leash. During the pandemic, while working from home full time, I became my neighbors dog walker for their Husky and 2 Chihuahuas because why not!! I walked them at least twice a day every day for almost 2 years. I don’t have a ton of experience taking care of cats, but I have friends and family that have cats. I’d be more than willing to help take care of your cats as well! I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I work in the city 3 days per week, but I can choose which days those will be.

I have to say I was so nervous leaving my boys !! But then I met Janelle and my cats adored her … She took care of all their needs and made sure they were well looked after sending me messages and pictures it was a great experience and will use her in the future .. Timmy and Acey thank you !!
Angela was the best cat sitter we could have ever found. From the moment I requested to book, she was communicative and friendly. She came by the same day for a meet and greet and was so friendly to our little Laszlo. My boyfriend and I knew instantly that we would hire her. This is our first pet together and he’s a little baby so we were really worried to leave him for such a long time. Angela reassured us and made us feel comfortable way before our trip. We booked Angela for a daily drop in and she provided Laszlo with food, water and a litter box change. She gave Laszlo lots of cuddles and play time & provided us with live updates and photos. She also watered our plants and made sure to check in if we needed anything else. She instantly fell in love with Laszlo and gave him such great care and attention. It’s unfortunate that she lives in Brazil 8 months out of the year but we will 100% be using her again when she comes back. Angela is also a really outgoing person so I think I have just found a new friend! 100000/10. Best cat sitter ever!
Nicole was excellent—punctual and clearly took care to follow all of the instructions. She came for a dog check in, feeding, and dog walk and documented the entire thing with texts and photos in real time, which is really assuring whenever someone is in your home when you are not. My puppy seemed to love her—she did all of her business—and everything was left in the same condition as before. Would definitely recommend and will use in the future.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Long Beach on Rover is $23.31 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 25,261 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Long Beach. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
