“Bethany was really great taking care of my Lola. It was the first time I've had anyone take care of my dog, so I was nervous. Great communication and checked in often, making me feel comfortable the entire time. Thank you!”


About: I have been a sitter for years. It’s just something I love to do because I love animals :) Once I got a fur family of my own (Dog & Cat) I thought it would be fun to be a sitter and do something I love. I always go the extra mile and create content, if the client approves. I work as a music producer and have tons of time for my animal friends! They make my days better 🖤 I love meeting new people and caring for their animal family. It’s just something that brightens my days. I’m very caring and attentive. Always watching out for them to make sure they’re safe and happy. Knowing they’re properly cared for is my top priority.
“Dani was a wonderful sitter for our cats and dog. She was very responsible, sent us lots of great photos, and kept our pets very happy and healthy. She also took great care of our home. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi, I’m Robin—based in San Pedro and here to help with walks, drop-ins, or just keeping your pet happy while you’re away. I’m reliable, easygoing, and genuinely love spending time with animals. I aim to provide thoughtful, inclusive care and make sure every pet (and person) feels comfortable and supported. Let me know if you’d like to set up a meet-and greet I work from home most weekdays and normally stay local on the weekends. Love to get out for walks on the weekends and mid day during the week Building trust with pets is key to ensuring that they feel comfortable and happy in my care. I take the time to get to know each pet individually, so I can tailor my care to their unique personalities and preferences. Whether it's playing with their favorite toy or providing them with plenty of belly rubs, I am dedicated to building a bond of trust with your pets.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals for 6 years now. From abused dogs to bottle fed kittens. I’ve always loved animals and it is my passion to care for them. Right now I work a regular 9-5 with a 1 hour lunch. thats just enough time to make sure your pet get care in the morning and night with a regular check in mid day. Saturday and Sundays i’m off which lets me give your baby all the love it deserves! I care for all animals the way I would want mine cared for. Lots of love, plenty of food, and the necessary exercise. To be an animal lover is to love all animals equally.
“Heather was wonderful with our three dogs and one of the first sitters we ever trusted with them. She immediately put us at ease and took such great care of everything while we were away for a week. One thing we really appreciated was how she reached out with thoughtful questions about each of the dogs personalities and how they get along. It was really nice because it showed she genuinely wanted to get to know them and make sure she was caring for them in the best way possible. One of the biggest bonuses is that she also cleans houses on the side, and it truly shows. We came home to a house that was even cleaner than when we left it, which was such a nice surprise after traveling and made coming home feel so much more relaxing. She was also incredibly thoughtful and flexible when our flight got delayed. She went out of her way to come back later in the evening to let the dogs out, which we really appreciated. She stayed in great communication the entire time and kept us updated, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and detail oriented sitter.”

“Had a great experience with Brendan for our first time with Rover. He was easy to coordinate with, patient and kind with our dog, and was very communicative while watching her!”

About: I’ve always naturally connected with animals and genuinely enjoy being around them. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their owners are away. I know every pet has a different personality, so I try to make them feel relaxed, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. I currently work a hybrid schedule, so I carefully manage my availability to make sure I can provide dependable care and attention during bookings. I’m mainly available Monday-Wednesday and always make time for walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, and updates throughout the stay. I like keeping pets on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable while their owners are away. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet with someone else, so I take that responsibility seriously. I always follow owner instructions carefully, respect clients’ homes, and prioritize keeping pets safe, comfortable, and supervised. I’m naturally very patient, calm, and communicative, and I’ll make sure to send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away.
“Kate is so trustworthy & patient. She is always finding different ways to help us with our difficult dog from the type of treats, to ways of approaching her. We are truly grateful for her. She did an overnight and kept our babies safe and took care of them. We will continue to use her because she is so dependable and trusting.”

“We were nervous to leave our dog as he sometimes shows minor separation anxiety but Armando did such a great job!! He is super calm and laid back but also very responsive to messages. Would definitely book him again.”

“Cloe saved my trip when my original sitter plans backed out days before. She’s super quick to respond and I felt really confident in her care for Odin in my home while I was away. My mind was at ease.”

“Candace was amazing! Very friendly and understanding of my Lola's needs. Lola really felt comfortable around Candace early on, making me comfortable knowing someone was going to take care of my Baby.”

“Joel is a great pet and house sitter! He has taken care of our 98# Bernedoodle Ollie and 4 cats multiple times. He sent pictures almost every day, and even took one of our cats in for his blood draw and gave him medicine.”


About: I used to work in an emergency vet hospital so I have knowledge on how to act in an emergency situation, common welfare, and proper precautions/warning signs/symptoms. I have also cared for pets of all ages, including 2 week old kittens, senior dogs, and many more. I work during the day Monday-Friday but can do evening and morning care and am fully available on the weekends. Starting in August I will be available during the day on the weekdays. I will follow any rules you set for me when caring for your pets. Every pet is different and needs different accommodations. But I will also love on them as if they were my own!
“Christopher looked after our kids for 9 days and my old Great Dane just fell in love !! The young ones kept him quite busy and he diligently took care of each with a warm heart and lots of love hugs and kisses to all the fur babies . Absolutely fantastic to know you can rely on such a competent and friendly dog sitter like him. Got home today and my kids was over the moon .. Definitely a 5👌🏼in our books ..”

About: I have 7+ years of professional pet care experience and currently work as the assistant manager of a high-volume pet care facility specializing in boarding, daycare, training, enrichment, and socialization under the supervision of an animal behaviorist. I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs — from playful puppies to senior pets requiring medications or specialized care. I’m experienced handling shy, fearful, reactive, strong-willed, and aggressive dogs, and I always prioritize safety, patience, structure, and positive experiences while making sure every pet feels comfortable, understood, and cared for. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable while giving owners peace of mind knowing their animals are in experienced and reliable hands. I understand that every pet is different, so I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and individual needs to provide the best care possible. Whether that means playtime, extra patience, slower-paced senior care, or lots of affection and attention, I care for every pet like they’re my own — with plenty of love, belly rubs, and a few treats along the way! I do work full time but I'm available Monday-Friday after 3pm. I'm also available for overnight boarding on weekends. I'm flexible with my schedule as well. I currently do not have any pets in my home, which allows me to provide a calm, personalized environment tailored to each pet’s individual needs and comfort level. Whether your pup enjoys walks, playtime, enrichment activities, relaxing companionship, or a slower-paced routine, I’m happy to adjust their care based on what makes them feel safest and happiest. Safety, supervision, and making pets feel comfortable are always my top priorities, and I’d love to learn more about your pet’s routine, personality, and favorite things to help them feel right at home!

About: I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my determination, admiration, and respect for all. I take all comments and concerns as a growing opportunity for my own experience and also to better the experience of your pets. I work graveyard 5 days a week, and I find myself wanting to detach and find comfort in another opportunity as well as keeping my original job. I am good with communication and will always find a way to work around my schedule, compromise, while also taking consideration of the owners schedule. I will first make sure your pet is comfortable with me in their presence and asking the owners about their personality and what the pets routine is throughout the day/night. I am a list person and will always make sure to check all the boxes as needed. While also developing a kind friendship with your pet.
The median cost per night for house sitting in Terminal Island is $63

Wow I was so impressed with Dani. I had never left my dog with anyone but a family member so I was very worried about leaving him with someone he never met previously but Dani was great with my dog. She was very accommodating and kept me informed with pictures and text messages. My dog is a senior dog and takes medication daily and has trouble walking downstairs; Dani had no issue with doing what was needed to take care him. I highly recommend her.
Bethany has quickly become my favorite sitter! It is obvious my furbabies feel safe and at home with her. She did a great job grooming the girls, and keeping our hope clean and organized. Even though I didn’t have the best reception, Bethany still continued to provide pictures and updates that warmed my heart. She’s the absolute best!

John was kind, thorough, and dedicated to our pups while house sitting for us. They were so happy when we got home which is not usual for when we leave them. John left the home super tidy as well and followed all our instructions. He spent ample time with them during the day and was honest about his other obligations and how much time our dogs would be alone each day, which is much more direct than any of the other sitters we have used. He sent us daily updates and was quick to respond. He was even able to accomodate a last minute request I had for him. We appreciate you, John! And will certainly have you back when we need the help!! Thank you!

An absolute GODSEND. I've had housesitters and used boarders before, but this was the first time using Rover and I couldn't imagine a better experience for Rover than to have Sharyl as the example I got as a housesitter. She was superb! At a very difficult and stressful time, she was able to housesit for three days and two nights and take care of my two pups (a 40 pound full-of-energy Brittany, and a 18 pound dachshund/terrier mix). She made me feel at ease and comfortable with choosing her, and made them feel taken care of and loved. Excellent dog skills and superior people skills too. I received regular updates on the dogs and pics of them too. Even with a demanding food regimen and the boundless energy of these dogs on their walks, she came through with flying colors! Thank the heavens for her!
Si-Mon is an angel and an incredible pet sitter. She took such great care of my boy while I was out of town for a week. It was the longest we had been apart and my dog experienced some separation anxiety. She stayed with him all night to help calm his nerves and stayed in communication with us the entire time we were gone with photos and videos.
