Pet Sitting Surfside

“Laura is a sweet and attentive person who is a pleasure to talk to. The pets all come to greet her when she comes over and she gives them lots of love. She goes above and beyond regarding what I needed and doesn’t rush. Thank you so much.”

About: Hi everyone I’m new to Rover but I would love to give your dog the best day ever! I’ve been lucky enough to have dogs my entire life as my background. Now I have two mini dachshunds of my own that are the sweetest and goofy boys. I took time off work when I got chili (first pup) to ensure he was trained from day one and well taken care of. Went back to work for another year and now have decided to quit my corporate job because I wasn’t fulfilled to now pursue this career full time. Since I’m new I have cheap prices to build myself up but my goal is to start my own doggy day care full time. If you can help me with my dream that would be so appreciated! Please reach out if you have any questions, I will be happy to connect. :) I have a dog of my own so taking care of him everyday and any minute I’m home. I have a hybrid job so depending on the day but he is walked before I leave and as soon as I get back. I always make sure he is fed, walked, played with, and he gets tons of cuddles more than he probably wants. I will care for them in every way that the owner says or the pets needs. I’m structured, understanding, and flexible. If you leave me a list of to do or specific requirements I will make sure they get done and on time. I’m healthy young adult who has no problem playing or taking a dog on a long walk.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve always had a natural ability to connect with dogs, and I love bringing a fun, enthusiastic, and positive energy to every interaction. With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, I understand how important it is to make each pup feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for. Whether your dog is playful and energetic or prefers a little extra patience and cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at and give them the attention they deserve. My goal is always to make your pet feel like they have a trusted best friend while you’re away! Pictured is me with my furry soulmate, Bear! 🐻🐾🩷 I’m currently studying for my PT licensing exam, so my availability can be pretty open! Please let me know what might work best for you. As a lifelong dog owner, I’ve experienced just about every unexpected situation that can come with caring for pets—and those experiences have taught me to be attentive, proactive, and prepared. I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and quirks, whether that means keeping certain items out of reach, making sure they get outside for bathroom breaks, or simply giving them the attention and care they deserve. When you’re away, you can feel confident knowing your pet is in caring and responsible hands. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same patience, care, and attention I give my own pets!

About: Animal lover for life! Growing up with cats and dogs gave me an early foundation in animal care and communication (the non-psychic kind 😄). For the past three years, I've volunteered with Guide Dogs of America, socializing and training puppies from 4 to 8 weeks old. This work has deepened my understanding of dog behavior, development, and trust-building from the very earliest stages of life. Cats hold a special place in my heart too. Years of living with them taught me how to read feline body language, respect their independence, and create a calm space where they can be comfortable. Friends and family turn to me as their go-to sitter, and I bring that same dependable, loving care to every animal I meet. I come to your home, keeping your pet in their own familiar environment so they stay relaxed, comfortable, and stress-free while you're away. As a yoga and piano teacher, my schedule gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I have two dedicated teaching days where my availability is limited, but the rest of the week I have generous windows of free time- perfect for popping in, spending quality time with your pet, and making sure they feel loved. Since I provide in-home sitting, your pet stays in their own familiar environment the entire time. I follow your established routines: feeding schedules, walk times, sleep spots, and any special instructions you leave. I treat every home with respect and keep safety a top priority, making sure gates, doors, and any pet-proofing measures stay in place throughout my visit. Your pet's comfort and security always come first.

“Jessica did an awesome job! She went above and beyond for me. My cats are very messy eaters and she did a great job cleaning the bowls, wiping down the countertops, and cleaning the litter box. She also lit my candles so the house smelled nice when I came home. She gave great updates and took awesome pictures of my babies. I would definitely recommend her services.”

About: I have owned many animals my whole lifee, so I have plenty of experience with animal care. I’ve pet sat for many neighbours as well as family and friends on multiple occasions and absolutely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds!! :)) I am available all days of the week for long or quick check ins, and walks. I do have class just for an hour twice a week. But that’s guaranteed not to intervene with any sitting time!! When checking in on your fur baby, I’ll be sure they’re well fed, hydrated, and gets lots of play time and plenty of attention. I’ll be taking care of any special requests for your pets if needed!!

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: Hi there! I know how important it is to find someone who will love and care for your pets just like you do. As a nurturing and patient stay-at-home parent, I’m home throughout the day to give your furry family members constant attention, snuggles, and playtime. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just keeping them company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Your pets will be treated like part of the family here! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m a stay-at-home parent, I’m home throughout the day to give pets plenty of love, attention, and companionship. Walks, playtime, feeding, and cuddles all fit seamlessly into my schedule, and I genuinely enjoy having animals in my home, they bring me so much joy. Their well-being is a priority, so I make sure they feel safe, cared for, and like family at all times. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe right away with plenty of love, play, and cuddles. I have a fenced-in yard where they can run, play, and explore safely and we have a dog park 2 minutes away as well! I follow their usual routine whether that’s feeding, walks, or favorite toys so they feel right at home. In a client’s home, I respect their space and care for pets just like I would in my own, keeping up with their schedule and making sure they get attention, exercise, and comfort. No matter where I’m caring for them, I treat pets like a part of my family. I also offer a free bath for your fur-baby with any week long service unless you would rather skip it-your pet’s comfort always comes first.

“Carrie did a great job taking care of our pup! We had a last-minute need and she was able to come by the evening beforehand and do a meet and greet, then come visit with Luna today at lunch. Although our dog is still getting comfortable with new people, he warmed up to Carrie and played a bit in the backyard. I'm sure I will request help again in the future (but hopefully, with a bit more lead time). Thanks Carrie!”

“Lindsey came at short notice and too great care of my pup!!!”

“Jasmine was so great! She provided awesome updates while I was out of town. My cat can be stressed when I’m gone and it was comforting knowing Jasmine was taking care of her while I was away. I will definitely be booking her again!”

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: Hi! We are Brandon and Gabriella! We have two Siberian Huskies(Brooklyn and King). They are 8 and 7 years old respectively. We’ve had them since puppies and have also trained them. Gabriella and I know how hard it is to find trusting care and we promise to provide the same level of care as we do our own huskies. We will always be time and provide photos! We also work at home full time. This allows us to care for your pet during the day. Whether at my complex or in your home. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out and ask! Thanks for reading my profile! Since we currently are work from home, we are able to walk, feed, play, and tend to all your pets needs! Our Siberian huskies will also lend a hand :). Our dogs are well trained on and off the leash. They receive 5/6 walks a day and play time at the local park. If trusted to take care of your pet, we will provide the same level or care and detail we do with our furry friends!

About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have over a year of hands-on pet sitting experience caring for my sister's two large, high-energy dogs. They are Husky/German Shepherd mixes (one also has Malamute and Wolf ancestry) and require consistent structure, exercise, and attention. I'm comfortable following strict feeding, potty, walking, and medication schedules, maintaining routines, and providing plenty of playtime and enrichment. Having cared for large, energetic breeds, I'm confident handling dogs with strong personalities and high exercise needs while ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply wants companionship, I'll treat them with the same care and attention I'd give my own pets. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, allowing me to spend plenty of quality time with your pets throughout the day. Whether your pet needs company while you're away, regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or simply someone to keep them comfortable, I can easily fit their routine into my workday. I'm available for house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I'm committed to following your pet's schedule to help them feel happy, safe, and stress-free. Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I believe every pet deserves patient, attentive care, and I'll treat yours as if they were my own. Having cared for dogs my entire life—including regularly watching my sister's two large, high-energy Husky/German Shepherd mixes—I understand the importance of consistency, exercise, and positive attention. While house sitting, I work remotely, so your pets won't be left alone for long periods and can enjoy plenty of companionship throughout the day. I'll carefully follow your instructions, respect your home, and provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: Hello Rover friends, I am officially a Rover sitter. To all who know me the animal kingdom has been my world ever since I was a little girl. I guarantee your pet will have a forever friend and unconditional love. They are always priority when they are with me. What truly sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience and dedication to animal welfare. For over 30 years, I’ve been actively involved with rescue organizations—fostering dogs, volunteering at adoption events, and conducting home inspections to ensure safe placements. I also work closely with shelters to evaluate a dog’s behavior and temperament, helping rescues understand which environments each dog will thrive in. One of the most rewarding experiences of my life was raising orphaned newborn puppies—feeding them around the clock, keeping them warm, and nurturing them into strong, healthy companions. That level of care, patience, and love is something I bring to every animal I look after. I specialize in:    •   🍼 Newborn & orphaned puppy care    •   🐾 Puppy training support * Animal CPR    •   🐶 Senior pet care    •   🐕 Rescue & trauma-informed handling    •   💊 Medication administration (oral/topical)    •   🐈 Cat care & companionship    •   🐴 Comfortable around horses    •   🏠 Multi-pet household management    •   📋 Shelter temperament assessments & home checks Every pet has a story, and I’m here to be the calm, loving chapter when you can’t be there. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—it’s what I truly love to do! I structure my days around the animals I care for, whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. I have dedicated my life volunteering in Animal Welfare. I like to consider myself as the neighborhood dog whisper. There hasn't been a dog that I cant handle. With my flexible schedule and home-based work, I’m able to be fully available for your pet’s needs throughout the day and night. I’m available weekdays and weekends, including holidays, and I can accommodate a wide range of routines—whether your pet is high-energy and active or needs calm, consistent care. Safety and trust are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family and ensure they’re comfortable, secure, and loved every step of the way. In your home, I respect your space and routines. I carefully follow your instructions, maintain your pet’s feeding, walking, and medication schedules, and provide updates so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. I also understand how to read animal behavior, especially in rescue or sensitive pets, so I approach every situation calmly and with care. In my home, pets are welcomed into a calm, pet-friendly environment. I keep a clean, safe space with no hazards or stressors, and I always monitor interactions closely. I never leave pets unattended outside, and I make sure each animal has their own space to rest, relax, and feel at home. With over 30 years of hands-on experience—including rescue fostering, behavior assessments, and newborn puppy care—I provide a loving, trustworthy, and safe experience every time.

About: Hello! I adore animals of all kinds and have always seen my pets as part of my family. I've had years of experience with several sweet cats and dogs of my own. We've always rescued and found the best furry friends. For the last 10 years, I've cared for 2 sweet labs next door with frequent walks, meals, tuck-in service (bedtime kongs), and general cuddle puddles 4 days a week. I cat and dog sit for several neighbors and family members and have been doing so consistently for the last 12 years. My home is "beach cozy" (translation: small), so it's best suited for all cats and small-medium-sized dogs that enjoy getting out for walks. If you have a senior dog or cat that needs extra TLC or a quieter home, no kids, no other pets, and all the attention is on them, I am happy to provide a safe, comfy space! I work from home most days and have plenty of time to dedicate to pet, potty, and play breaks! I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most pet needs. I have experience with administering medication and daily IV fluids. I got very comfortable caring for my senior CKD kitty for over a year. Anything to make life better for these sweet souls I'm willing to do! I am a thoughtful and caring pet sitter and will take care of your fur friends like family!

About: I manage a small pet care and training business. My goal as a pet caregiver is your pet’s safety: through attention to detail in their environment, diet, and play time experiences; trust: through positive reinforcement, building rapport, and respecting their boundaries; comfort: reduce your pet’s anxiety by exercise, mental stimulation, keeping their typical routine, and love. I aim to combine these to create the ultimate sitting/walking experience. I manage a small business that specializes in vip boarding. I spend my days training, walking, and sitting man’s best friend. Pet’s ARE my daily and weekly routine. My goal as your sitter/walker is to love your pet as you do, by providing a safe home/yard. Following your directions to house rules and diet. Having fun safe walks by always anticipating potential triggers. I will take care of your pet as if he/she were my own.
