Cat Sitting Manhattan Beach

“Jordan did an amazing job doing 10 drop-in visits across 4 days for my dog Gus. Jordan came super prepared at the meet and greet visit and asked a lot of questions to understand Gus’ routine. My dog is part lab/cattle dog and has a bunch of quirks, and she made sure he was well taken care of. Jordan also did a great job when I booked her for a first time walk before my trip so Gus could get familiar with her. Providing picture updates on the walk. She provided great updates in each Rover card. Including photos, videos, and notes from each visit to share how Gus was doing. She even came back to check on him on 4th of July to ensure he was ok during fireworks. It’s my first time using Rover and Gus was in great hands. She made my trip worry-free. Would definitely book her again!”

“Mars was excellent. My cat is usually a bit bashful but Mars was kind and was able to keep my boy happy and comfortable. She even wrote me a little Happy New Years wish. For short notice on a holiday she was above expectations.”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine care and attention I give every pet. As a pet owner and experienced sitter, I’ve cared for dogs through walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting for friends and family. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny teacup Yorkies to large Dobermans, and I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m also a future nurse, so caring for others is at the heart of who I am. My nursing education, combined with volunteer experience in hospitals, hospice, and as a caregiver, has taught me patience, compassion, reliability, and close attention to detail. I bring that same mindset to every pet I care for, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with company, I’ll tailor my care to their needs and keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands! Pet care fits well into my daily routine because I’m currently a nursing student with a flexible schedule and multiple days available throughout the week. I am able to dedicate plenty of time and attention to each pet and provide reliable, consistent care. I’m available most mornings and after 5 PM on weekdays, with full day availability on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. On Wednesdays, I’m fully available after 12 PM. My flexible schedule allows me to work around your pet’s routine and provide walks, check-ins, playtime, feeding, and companionship while you’re away. When I care for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping them comfortable and sticking to their normal routine. I know pets feel most secure in their own environment, so I make sure to follow their usual feeding schedule, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from their owner. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and what makes them feel comfortable. Some pets love attention and play, while others need more patience and space to warm up. I’m happy to provide whatever care they need, whether that’s walks, cuddles, feeding, cleaning litter boxes, or simply keeping them company while their owners are away. My goal is for every pet to feel safe, loved, and well cared for!

“Brooke was great, we highly recommend her for home visits. She helped us with our 9wk old puppy.”

“Gabriella was great with my kitten Millie! She was professional, followed all instructions, and took extra time to make sure Millie got plenty of love and attention while I was away at work. Highly recommend and will rebook!”

About: I specialize in caring for calm, well-trained, highly independent pets while maintaining a clean, organized, and well-cared-for home. My goal is to follow your pet’s established routine and provide consistent, dependable care while you’re away. I’m a great fit for households with pets that are well-mannered, comfortable with their routines, and able to settle independently. I focus on maintaining the environment your pets are already familiar with, ensuring they remain safe, comfortable, and cared for throughout your absence. As a full-time traveling house sitter that has cared for 25+ homes, pet care is a central part of my daily routine. I intentionally schedule my days around each pet’s established feeding, exercise, play, and care routines while maintaining the home as if it were my own. Because this is my full time focus, I’m able to provide consistent attention, adapt to each household’s preferences, and ensure pets receive dependable care throughout my stay. House and pet sitting gives me the ability to experience new environments while maintaining structure and consistency in my daily life. I genuinely enjoy the companionship and presence of pets in the home. I like learning their personalities, how different animals and breeds interact with their environment, and what helps them feel comfortable and at ease. I also enjoy play, interaction, and building a calm, steady presence with them during a sit. I provide structured, routine based care including feeding, walking, playtime, enrichment, and oral medication when it can be given with ease and cooperation. I value calm, stable home environments with clear instructions and consistent routines. I do best in well maintained, organized homes that are clutter free, odor free, clean, and with minimal excess pet hair buildup. I also appreciate the use of air purifiers when available. While I work remotely and am primarily at home, my work includes focused independent periods, and I check in on pets throughout the day as part of their routine care. A video call (Zoom or Google Meet) is required prior to confirming a sit to ensure a mutual fit for both home and pet care expectations. I appreciate homeowners who are familiar with my profile and come prepared with any questions as well. I am not a fit for: • Highly Velcro pets requiring constant proximity or attention • Aggressive behavior toward humans or other animals • Physical force based handling, training, or behavior modification responsibilities • Daily intensive mess cleanup or unmanaged accidents • Co-sleeping (pets must sleep independently in their own space outside the bedroom) • Frequent last minute changes, unclear schedules, or unstable routines I value clear communication, respectful, hospitable, and well structured sits.

“Jamie is awesome. She took great care of my 2 dogs and cat. Her communication was great! I highly recommend her”

About: For over six years, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all ages and energy levels—whether it’s one loyal companion or a lively crew. I treat every pup with care, making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home while you’re away. Reliable, patient, and always ready for a walk (or many pets)! For fish - I’ve had a tank through my whole life (freshwater) and recently have had saltwater, taking a close eye on their needs and tank maintenance. 🐾🐠🐟 I currently work full-time on weekdays, but I’m available for morning and evening check-ins during the week. My weekends are fully open, so I’m happy to help however I can then! While I care for a saltwater tank full of marine life at home, I always make sure to dedicate plenty of focused time to meet—and go beyond—the needs of your furry companions. Every pet deserves attention, affection, and a little extra love while you’re away, and that’s exactly what I provide.

“Chyna is wonderful!!! Would not hesitate to book her again for a cat or dog. Hell I’d even have her watch my fish if I had one”

“Great to have Yiyu take care of our cats again. They are very comfortable with her, they love her attention, and we came home to relaxed happy cats.”

About: Hi, I’m Liz! I’m a marketing writer based in Manhattan Beach, originally from the Midwest, and I’ve had dogs and cats around me my entire life! I don’t currently have pets of my own, which means I have plenty of love, attention, and couch space to give yours. I’m a very experienced dog godmother and genuinely love spending time with pups of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from beach-walk extroverts to cozy little couch potatoes. Because I work from home full-time, I’m especially available during the day for walks, playtime, companionship, feeding, and check-ins. We even live right next to Bruces Beach Park so we can run around and play! Your pet won’t just be “watched” they’ll get real attention, affection, and a calm, comfortable place to hang while you’re away. I’m also available for overnight boarding and would love to make your dog feel safe, loved, and cared for like they’re part of the family. Can’t wait to meet you and your pup! I work from home so I have fairly free availability most days of the week and your pet will have constant companionship! Please let me know for boarding requests :) I do not have pets so your pet will be the only one in my apartment, we are also young thirties with no children so the full focus will be on your pet!

About: I have three years of experience dog-sitting and walking my sister’s terrier mix, so I’m comfortable with routines, walks, feeding, and giving pets the attention they need to feel secure. Outside of that, I’m an art history professor and PhD student, which means I’m very responsible, organized, and reliable. Years of teaching and working in museums have trained me to be attentive, patient, and detail-oriented, qualities I bring directly into pet care. I’m calm, consistent, and genuinely love spending time with both dogs and cats. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I’m available all day on Mondays and Fridays, and most weekends. On Tuesdays, I’m available until 1 pm; on Wednesdays, after 2 pm; and on Thursdays, until 3 pm. I’m reliable, consistent, and able to maintain your pet’s routine. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their own environment and maintain their usual routines. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific needs. I’m very respectful of your home, keep spaces clean, and prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being at all times.

About: I have grown up with pets and have enjoyed learning and experiencing different personalities. With my hands-on experience your furry friend is in capable and caring hands. I specialize in small to medium-sized dogs, but my recent experience with larger breeds has expanded my horizons, though I'm quite selective and open to it only if they're exceptionally well-behaved. My approach to pet sitting is all about creating a comfortable space for your pet to ensure they feel safe and cared for even when you're not at home with them. I understand that every pet is unique and requires individualized attention, which is why I tailor my care to suit their needs and why I only accept 1 client household at a time. I try to accommodate your pet's schedule so that they don't have to experience too much change at once. This includes sticking to exercise regimens, feeding schedules, potty breaks and bedtimes. I work remotely full-time which means I have flexibility in my schedule. Additionally, I try to maintain an active lifestyle which includes running and hiking. When onboarding a new client, I make sure that I understand the pet's schedule and preferences. Additionally, I make sure to understand any boundaries the pet should adhere in the client's home including yard space or even areas in the house. I do a walkthrough with the client so I know what areas may pose a safety concern such as gates and fences. I try to understand the pet's behavior in different scenarios such as when the door bell rings or if a neighborhood dog approaches during walks. I also make sure I have emergency numbers and the location of the closest animal hospital. For client's ease of mind , I provide pictures and updates as needed on the pet.

“Beril was amazing!! She showed up early and was excellent in providing care for my kitten. She went above and beyond what I expected!”

About: Giving your pets so much love, while leaving your home better than when you left. Grew up on a farm in Canada with many animals, while also having pets over the years since. In addition to providing reliable and loving care for your pet(s) and home, I also offer Animal Reiki sessions and gentle energetic space clearing—helping your pet feel calmer and your home feel refreshed and balanced while you’re away. I’ve been house and pet sitting for friends for awhile now and have led a digital nomad life around the world in 45 countries and counting since 2010. Thought I’d give this platform a try as I’m in transition and planning to settle down in California permanently while checking out more areas to see what’s a long term fit. I love animals, playing beach volleyball, and run my own digital marketing agency of 15 years that has always been remote-first so have a very flexible schedule that I create. Looking forward to caring for your home and pets! I grew up on a farm in northern Canada and it sustained our family so I have a lot of experience with pets and many animals, from our own dogs and cats, to rabbits, cattle, pigs and chickens. I’ve lived in many cities around the world since and also had additional pets throughout life and have often been asked to care for friend's and family’s pets and homes over the years. I absolutely love it because I move around a lot and do not have my own at the moment.
