About: I’ve always enjoyed being around animals and understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and keeping pets comfortable while their owners are away. I’ll follow any instructions you provide and make sure your pets receive plenty of attention and care. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule throughout most of the week, which gives me plenty of time for pet care, house sitting, walks, feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from around 12:00 PM to 8:30 PM, so my availability is more limited during those hours. I’m available before and after class and will always communicate my schedule before accepting a booking to make sure I can meet your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I will always respect their home and follow the instructions they provide. I’ll make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get their regular walks and potty breaks, and receive plenty of attention. I’ll also keep owners updated so they can feel comfortable knowing their pets are being well cared for.

About: Hi! I'm Ella, and I have professional experience working with dogs in a daycare and boarding facility. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities and am comfortable providing everything from walks and playtime to feeding, medication, and individualized care. Working in a professional dog-care environment taught me how important it is to pay attention to each dog's individual needs, recognize changes in behavior, and prioritize safety while still making sure every dog feels comfortable and cared for. I’m responsible, communicative, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m happy to provide regular photo and message updates so you can feel confident knowing your dog is safe and having a great time while you’re away. I’m currently attending school in the Long Beach area and am looking to build relationships with local pet parents who need a dependable, experienced sitter or walker. I’m currently a student, so my schedule is flexible and allows me to provide pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding depending on my class schedule. I’m also available for weekend and holiday bookings when my schedule allows. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and making sure every pet feels comfortable and cared for. I have professional experience working in a dog daycare and boarding facility, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I follow each pet’s individual feeding, medication, exercise, and care instructions closely and pay attention to changes in behavior or health. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while keeping their pet’s environment clean and secure. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and message updates so owners can feel confident that their pets are safe and happy.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up and have always pet sat for neighbors and friends. I always stick to your pets scheduled routine. I also genuinely love to spend time with pets other than mine. 😊 I’m currently a full time student at csulb studying Biochem, so I have Fridays and weekends pretty much free! I do however have some gaps in between classes that I could squeeze in pet drop ins. My pets along with clients pets usually stick to or have a schedule that I always like to follow as I find this creates the most amount of comfort for them especially while their parent is away. I love to spend time with pets especially now that I am away from my pets back home for college.

I’ll always take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and individual needs so they feel happy, safe, and loved!

About: Hi there! I've been working with pets for 9 years and counting. I specialize in big/small dogs, cats, and small mammals. Additionally, I have 4 years of experience caring for reptiles and aquatic animals. If you have a 'weird' animal or an animal that is not listed for care on Rover, contact me!

Upon contact a descriptive schedule will be provided for the length of pet care to ensure the best outcome for your fuzzy friend. I can ensure safety and trust between me and your fuzzy friend by respecting their boundaries and following their schedules. Additionally, I carry experience with pet CPR, hold an emergency crate in my car, and will adapt to any needs your pet describes.

About: For the last 15 years, I've worked with hundreds of animal rescues and supervised veterinary teams to care for animals of all kinds. I've learned everything from reading behaviors to administering meds and cleaning wounds...but just as importantly, I've learned how to make animal's feel safe and loved. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else. I've fostered dozens and have three of my own (all with different energy levels, high and low) so trust that I know how important it is to find someone who will love them like family. In a way I'd want for my own pets. I'm also currently expecting my first baby (yay!), so I'm taking a step back from my regular career for a while. That means I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the attention they deserve. I'm currently taking a step back from my full-time career to enjoy my first pregnancy (I'm still quite early), so I have a very flexible schedule and am around most days :) I always try to keep routines as normal as possible while you're away. I'll send plenty of updates (I usually have my camera with me, so expect lots of photos!) and make sure they get all the love, exercise, and attention they're used to. I'm comfortable administering meds, performing injections, wound care, nail trims, and anal gland expressions. One of my dogs is a GSP, so high-energy dogs are right up my alley, and I'm always happy to keep up with walks, adventures, or training. Honestly, I'm here to care for your pet in whatever way makes you feel most comfy, even if that just means sitting on the couch while we watch some old movies. I'm also happy to water plants, bring in mail, or take care of the little things around your home while you're away. My goal is that you come home to a happy pet and a house that's exactly how you left it.

About: I’ve been dog sitting since I was 16 for friends, family, and online clients, and I genuinely love being around animals. I’m responsible, respectful, and very attentive to each pet’s routine and personality. I know trusting someone with your pet — and sometimes your home — is a big deal, so I always make communication and reliability a priority. I’m happy to send plenty of updates and photos, follow any instructions you leave, and make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether they love walks, playtime, or just hanging out, I’ll treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. I’m a college student with a pretty flexible schedule, and I have my own car, so getting back and forth for pet care is never an issue. I’m always willing to make the trip to make sure your pet gets the attention, walks, feeding, and care they need. I also work part-time, but my shifts are typically only 3–4 hours, so I’m never away for long periods of time. I’m great at planning around my classes and work schedule and making pet care a priority! Safety, Trust & Environment I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely, and I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection based on their personality! When I’m in a client’s home, I’m also very respectful of their space and make sure everything is kept clean and secure. I’ll always communicate clearly, send updates and photos, and make sure you feel confident that both your pet and your home are being well taken care of!

About: I grew up caring for pets and was a trusted sitter for neighbors and family when I was younger. While I’m newer to Rover, working with animals has always come naturally to me, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality. I’m currently pursuing graduate studies in Marriage and Family Therapy, which has shaped how I approach care. I’m patient, observant, and attentive to subtle behavior and comfort cues. This is especially helpful for pets who are anxious, sensitive, or adjusting to being away from their owners. I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, energy level, and preferences so they feel safe and comfortable. I’m reliable with walks, feeding, playtime, and following detailed instructions, and I communicate clearly so you always know how your pet is doing. I have a flexible daytime schedule, which allows me to be available for morning and midday visits, walks, and check ins throughout the week, as well as weekends. I plan my time carefully so each pet receives consistent, attentive care. I approach pet care with a calm, attentive mindset and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. I take time to understand their routine, behavior, and any specific needs so I can keep things as consistent and stress free as possible while you’re away. I’m mindful on walks, aware of surroundings, and especially patient with pets who may be anxious or sensitive. In your home, I’m clean, respectful, and follow all instructions closely. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.

“Soleil was AMAZING, and I genuinely cannot recommend her enough! She took such wonderful care of Lemon while I was away at a conference, and I never had to worry for a second. She was reliable, communicative, incredibly sweet with Lemon, and just made the whole experience so easy. She also went so far above and beyond what I asked her to do. I came home and realized she had cleaned my cat’s litter box AND taken out the trash—neither of which was remotely part of our arrangement! It was such a thoughtful surprise after a long trip, and honestly just says so much about the kind of person she is. I came home to happy pets and a home that had clearly been really cared for, which is about the best feeling you can have after traveling. Soleil is kind, thoughtful, dependable, and an absolute gem. I would hire her again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to basically anyone who will listen. Lemon and I are officially huge Soleil fans!”

Jennifer has visited and looked after our 'furry baby' 15 times since we retired in 2023. She is so kind, conscientious, thorough, caring, and loving. Always ready to go above and beyond while looking out for his safety, happiness, and well-being. Consistently and repeatedly exercising exceptional judgment on those occasions that've called for it, as well as each time she's been unable to reach us or our alternate contacts. To the point that we no longer book any trip without first asking Jennifer for her availability.

Kaley has been amazing from first contact all the way through. Cha cha was super comfortable with her right away. She is prompt with communication and visits, follows everything to the letter and more, and takes the most amazing sets of photos. I could tell Cha Cha was relaxed and not stressed at all when we got home. She very obviously understands the nuances of how cats communicate comfort and needs. I most certainly will book her again.

We had a wonderful experience with Zeni! She was punctual, friendly, and communicated with us throughout her time dropping in for our two cats. It was clear right away that she loves animals, and we could tell our cats loved her too from the pictures she took every visit. We would happily use Zeni’s services again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter. Thank you again!!

Shelli is wonderful! Our pups have a new best friend and love having her come by and spend time with them. Shelli is super communicative, sends pictures throughout the day and takes amazing care of our pups. She came and did a meet-and-greet before her stay to make sure she had all of the info necessary - she's thorough and made me feel super safe and confident having her come and take care of them. Will for sure be using Shelli again and again! :)

Bronte was great and very understanding. My cats spent most of her visits hiding because she's new and they don't know her. But Malí eventually ventured out and decided Bronte was ok. Hopefully Malí will tell Felis and he'll come out of hiding next time. Thanks, Bronte!

Shana is great! I hired her to take care of our tortoises that live outside while we were gone for 9 days. Not only did they need daily food and water, but their house also needed to be cleaned regularly. They’re pretty large tortoises so they also make big messes. She updated me every day, took pictures, and I came home to a spotless tortoise enclosure which was a dream. She really cared for them the way we do and I knew she bonded with them from her messages. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy and extremely caring, hire Shana!
