Pet 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!”

About: I grew up helping care for our family Schnauzer, so looking after dogs has been part of my life since I was a kid. Since then I've dog-sat on and off, and I once caught a runaway dog and got them safely back home. Dogs tend to trust me quickly, and even shy pups who are wary of strangers often let me pet them. I'll treat your dog with the same patience and care I'd give my own. For my main job I primarily work East Coast hours, so my afternoons and evenings are free for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. I'm active and happy to take high-energy dogs. I look after dogs in their own home and stick to your routine for meals, walks, and play. I keep dogs leashed, watch doors and gates, and skip or shorten walks when it's too hot for paws. Shy dogs can warm up at their own pace, and I'll send photo updates.

“Dari is kind, punctual, and overall amazing! Our puppy Sonny has been so much happier with Dari coming to visit. She sends a ton of photos, updates, and is a great communicator :) we love Dari!”

“Lauren took great care of our queen cat while we were out of town for the long weekend. She sent us daily photos and updates about how our cat was doing, which we found comforting. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child, and I do believe it is my purpose in life! I have worked at dog day care facilities and rehab clinics for sick / injured wild animals, where I received training in CPR, medication administration and behavioral training. PLEASE NOTE: I can only board dogs that are under 50lbs in my home. However, I am more than happy to walk / drop-in on dogs of any size! I love all animals, but particularly more challenging ones are my favorite :) (I.e energetic puppies, grumpy oldies and quirky personality traits.) I will love your animal(s) as if they are my own! With plenty of play time, outdoor exploration and socialization to ensure your baby is happy and well taken care of. *** Please don’t hesitate to message me if you have any other pets that are not dogs / cats, I can take care of them as well during drop-ins / overnight visits if needed. I work full time as an animal care taker from our home with my partner. This is our full time job and we absolutely love every minute of it. I have a fenced yard with 2 cats and 2 dogs at home for plenty of socialization and playtime. I can also crate your pup if needed, as well as separate my animals from them if needed as well.

About: With over 30 years of caring for both dogs and cats, I have a deep understanding of animal behavior and know how to make pets feel safe, calm, loved, and comfortable, especially when their owners are away or at work. I offer more than basic pet sitting; I create a nurturing environment where pets receive personalized attention, affection, exercise, and emotional support. My background in healthy lifestyle coaching also helps me stay attentive, active, organized, and compassionate with every pet I care for. I am particularly patient with senior pets, shy animals, and pets that need extra reassurance or consistency in their routines. It fits into my schedule because I can spend time with them at the beach, the dog park, walking around town, or just hopping in the car to visit a larger dog park. Life is good when time isn't an issue. My home is fenced and offers plenty of space for outdoor play. Plus, we spend most of our time outside. I cook homemade food for my fur baby and always take a nap after a long walk. You can feel reassured knowing your fur babies will have someone present, attentive, experienced, and caring while they are away.

“Had a great experience with Marianna! She was very communicative, sent updates, and took great care of Zoey. Zoey looked happy in the photos and it gave me a peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend!”

“Excellent experience with Gabrielle. She's so sweet and made the dogs very comfortable right off the bat. Definitely appreciate her going above & beyond what was expected.”

“Saffie took great care of my aging labradoodle and drive-by kitty, brought in my dog's food delivery, unboxed & put in the freezer without me having to ask. She did everything I asked and more. Her care and attentiveness to my dog, especially, was most appreciated. she recognized that even though my 'puppy' wants to play fetch endlessly, her body just isn't up to it anymore and gave her lots of love.”

Joanne R.

“Sydney is fantastic! She clearly cares about animals and took wonderful care of our cats! She even took the time to play with them to help them get comfortable with her and adjust to our absence. Sydeny also went above and beyond checking something for us that we forgot to do before leaving. As a bonus she also sends adorable pictures and videos while you're gone! Highly recommend Sydney!”

Brianne T.

“Samantha was so great with our two boys. They were very well cared for and loved . She went above and beyond what was expected and was incredibly kind , professional and communicative.”

Matthew G.

“Julia was great! We booked her last minute and she was able to accommodate. After giving Maverick his medicine & pee break, she stayed with him and gave him lots of love. She let us know how he was doing and sent us pictures during the short visit.”

About: I'm here because I love pets, plain and simple. With experience caring for friends' pets and fostering, I'll give yours plenty of attention, playtime, and love while you're away. I am looking to accept weekend overnights as this is when I could provide the most time with your pet. I have my own dog so we typically go on three walks through the park and then play and cuddle! I have a fenced in small yard with turf. I go on my daily walks with my own dog and your pet can join. We play, hang out, and cuddle!

About: Hi there! 🐾 I'm a lifelong animal lover, proud Australian Shepherd dog mom, and someone who genuinely believes our pets are family! As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry best friend. I also have experience working with aggressive or "not friendly" behaved dogs - I understand how hard it can be to find a sitter you trust and who understands the complexities of your pups behavior. Whether your pup loves long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply curling up for some extra cuddles, I'm here to make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I'm naturally active and love spending time outdoors, so I'm always happy to keep up with energetic pups! I also understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I love getting to know what makes each one special. My professional background in event planning has made me incredibly organized, detail-oriented, dependable, and a great communicator. You can expect regular photo updates, thoughtful attention to your dog's routine, and plenty of love along the way. My goal is simple: to give your pup the same level of care, patience, and affection that I give my own. I can't wait to meet you and your fur-babies 🤍 As a event planner, my personal schedule is very flexible during the weekdays and certain weekends. Being a dog mom to an Australian Shepherd has given me firsthand experience with the love, patience, exercise, and attention that dogs need to thrive. I'm comfortable with active breeds, daily routines, walks, enrichment activities, and adapting to different personalities and energy levels. I believe in positive reinforcement, consistency, and creating an environment where every pup feels safe and loved. A perfect day with your pup includes plenty of love, fresh air, playtime, and relaxation! Depending on their energy level and routine, we might enjoy a neighborhood walk, outdoor playtime, enrichment games, or some cozy downtime. I always prioritize keeping dogs comfortable and sticking to the routines they're familiar with. Your dog's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I take the time to learn about each dog's personality, feeding schedule, routines, and any special instructions. I believe communication is key, so you can expect regular updates and adorable photos while you're away. I want you to enjoy your time knowing your pup is in caring, dependable hands!

About: I’ve always loved animals and have been around pets for basically my whole life. I had my dog for 16 years, so I’ve grown up learning how to care for a dog, keep up with their routine, give them attention, take them on walks, and make sure they feel loved and comfortable. I’ve also had three cats, so I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats and know that every pet has their own personality. I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience yet, but I’m very responsible, caring, patient, and excited to take care of other people’s pets. I’ll always follow your instructions and treat your pet like my own. I’m a full-time college student, so my schedule depends on my classes, but I have plenty of free time throughout the week. I’m hoping to use some of that time doing something I genuinely love, which is being around animals. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting depending on the day and my class schedule. I’m pretty flexible and will always be upfront about my availability. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine so they can stay comfortable. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone, so I’ll always take their safety seriously. I’ll follow any instructions you give me about feeding, walks, medications, routines, or anything else your pet needs. I’ll make sure they’re safe during walks and visits and pay attention to how they’re acting so I can notice if something seems off. I’ll also keep you updated while you’re away and can send pictures and little updates of your pet so you know how they’re doing. I know it’s nice to be able to see your pet while you’re away. I’ll give them lots of attention, patience, and love while they’re in my care.

About: Born animal lover, first pets were my mothers 3ft iguana and a small bunny. Grew to love the ocean as a lifeguard and all the sea creatures in it. Spent my summers in Montana riding horses! Special experience with turtles, bunnies, cats, dogs, horses, elderly dogs/cats as well as puppy training! Former tech worker, I am retired now and drop in to teach some fitness clients here and there but mainly home all the time to care M-Sun. We live a block from the beach and a park so plenty of places to go with my furry buds. ***Please note, we live in a duplex and have turned our downstairs studio space into a dedicated 1B boarding special for animals. Usually we use this space for play & sleep time. Our guests also roam upstairs with my family, including my 5 year old who loves animals. We have a small backyard as well and live one block from the strand and one block from valley park so dogs especially get extra walks at our house!

“Lara was wonderful with my cat Debbie. Debbie loved playing with Lara every day. I really enjoyed the videos she sent. And Lara even brought Debbie treats. Thank you!”

About: I have been doing this since I was in high school. Plenty of references outside of rover if needed! If I say I’ll be there, I’ll be there. No last minute cancellations. Your member of the family will be well taken care of by someone who enjoys spending time with them while you’re gone. I will treat them as if they are my own. Apologies in advance if they fall in love with me! I am a full time youth soccer coach. My schedule during the day is open. Evenings are when I’m busy with the kids. Weekends I’m flexible. I have the perfect schedule to help you with your needs. I’m extremely clean and well organized. I communicate very clearly. I want you to feel comfortable and know your member of the family is in safe hands. Once you meet me in person you’ll pick up on who I am as a person and maybe we will become friends!

About: Hi! My name is Nori. I am a mom of two grown children and two furry babies. I am reliable, trustworthy, honest, and dedicated to providing the love and care your pets deserve. Animals have always been a part of my life. Growing up, we always had pets in our home, including goldfish, hamsters, crayfish, cats, and dogs. I loved caring for each and every one of them. We had a wonderful Golden Retriever who lived a healthy and happy life until he sadly passed away from a brain tumor at age 11. Today, we share our home with a Golden Retriever girl we adopted after her owner surrendered her and a German Shepherd mix boy we rescued. Both have taught me even more about patience, compassion, and the unique needs of every dog. For many years, I have helped care for and walk my neighbors' and friends' dogs. Now that my children are grown and need less of my time, I have decided to join the Rover community so I can spend more time doing something I truly enjoy; caring for animals. I understand that every pet is a beloved family member, and I will treat your furry babies with the same love, attention, and care that I give my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I currently work part-time from home, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I will do my best to keep your pet's routine consistent and will carefully follow all of your instructions so they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away.

“Joanne is very responsive and flexible. Our original dog sitter bailed last minute and Joanne saved the day by looking after and taking care of our girl with a last minute request. She’s very friendly, flexible and respectful. Looking forward to booking her again in the future!”
