“Griffin already misses Stephanie! What a week they had together and Stephanie took such good care of Griffin. Loved the reports and pictures and helped me feel relaxed on my trip knowing Griffin was so happy. Also, Griffin is a senior dog and really appreciate that he can stay at home and have such good care since boarding at a facility is very hard on him.”
“Ginny was so kind and sweet with my cat! My cat gets lonely when I’m away so I mainly needed someone to come play with her for a while everyday. When I got back, my cat was noticeably less lonely and Ginny was great about sending photos and letting me know how my cat was doing everyday! Highly recommend!!”
“Carolyn was awesome! She was very thorough, kept us updated with pictures and activities of our cats and they seemed to really enjoy their time with her. Will definitely contact her for future occasions!”
About: Hi! I’m a fellow dog mom who has booked walks and drop-ins for my own dog, so I know what it feels like to leave your pup to a stranger, and the love you have for them in doing so. Which is why I prioritize communication, safety, and making sure your dog feels comfy and happy. I stick to routines, give lots of love (if pup allows) and make sure your pup gets the exercise, attention, and stimulation they need. I treat every dog how I’d want my dog treated. You’ll get photo updates, clear communication, and peace of mind knowing your dog is with someone who genuinely gets it. Im currently working part time so my schedule can be flexible for drops ins and weekly walks. Especially in the early mornings and late evenings! I ensure that your pup is with me only at all times. I’m watching them like a hawk bc I have a beagle that tries to vacuum everything so I’m hyper aware of what your pup is sniffing.
About: I originally grew up taking care of rabbits,guinea pigs, and chinchillas, which included grooming / shaving/ nail clippings and baths. I even litter trained them myself. I learned at a young age how to be gentle with all types of small animals and the importance of a clean environment. I am also available for exotic animal drop in visit care services (rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas). In my later years I fell in love with dogs and cats. I rescued all of my cats from trees and crawl spaces and learned how to cut their nails as well. When I got my first schnauzer - I learned the joy of training, patience, and positive reinforcement. My favorite thing to do is walk and spend time with animals, so it only makes sense that I create a lifestyle conducive to the things that bring me joy. I love spoiling dogs with special treats and I always talk to them like I would a person because they are so smart and pick up so many words. Walking with dogs outside, playing, chasing squirrels, and the joy of fresh air is my favorite thing to do. No walk is ever long enough for me. I am highly interactive and assertive to animals needs and I know how important positive energy is for their wellness. A good environment allows them to thrive and trust the company they are with. I am currently working part time, and I have a somewhat flexible work schedule, so pet care is something I enjoy and do daily as I have a pup of my own. I share my pup part time with my ex partner, so I have many days available to help take care of other animals. If it was completely up to me I’d have a tiny farm. I love animals so much and walking dogs is my absolute favorite pastime. I live in a one bedroom apartment with my cat Penny. My pup visits me two days a week. My cat is very dog friendly because she is used to my pup visiting twice a week. Fresh water, teeth brushing, home cooked meals/kibble are all things I do and I have stairs for smaller dogs to come on my couch. No areas in my home are off limits to pets.
“Shannon was great! She was able to accommodate my drop in request with short notice and made sure that all my requests were met. She sent videos of my kitten and communicated with me regarding when she entered my home and when she left. I would recommend her to people looking for drop-in sitting and I will definitely use her services again!”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something that genuinely comes naturally to me. I’ve grown up with dogs and have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including pets who need extra attention, medication, or a little more patience. I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether your pup needs long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they deserve. I’m also comfortable following detailed feeding, medication, and care instructions so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. And of course, I’ll keep you updated while you’re gone! I love sending lots of photos and updates so you can see what your pup is up to and know they’re happy, comfortable, and being well cared for. My current schedule is quite flexible, making me available for whatever you & your pup may need! Feel free to reach out, even if it's at the last minute. While watching pets, I fit to what they need. I love staying active and enjoy going for walks and/or runs with high-energy pups. But, I'm also more than happy to have a more chill doggy day as well.
About: I’ve been a dog groomer for the past five years, but recently left my 9-5 to stay at home with my two year old son. I’ve always worked with animals and wouldn’t have it any other way. Recent SAHM looking for some extra money for the household. My schedule is wide open morning to evening all week long including weekends and holidays. I always respect a pet’s boundaries and always let them do the approaching. I will follow any and all owner’s instructions along with use my own knowledge and experience to ensure all pets are always comfortable, happy, and safe.
“I’m very happy that Chieko took good care of my cat while I was out of town. She sent me pictures and updates every time she came, so that I could be sure my cat was doing OK. Not only taking care of my cat but she also took care of me how to navigate the app step by step. I’ll be requesting her again next time.”
About: I’ve lost my poodle of 17 years recently. I have 17 years of experience caring for animals. Filling the void by caring for all your lovely pets :) I am currently working from home Monday-Friday and am totally open during the weekends, giving me a lot of time to take care of your pups! I can crate your dog in my home if needed. I do live in an apartment but right next to a lovely park for our daily walks!
About: I have several years of experience dog sitting for friends, family, and neighbors pets. I provide structured care for senior dogs (e.g., leisurely walks and frequent potty breaks) or high-energy dogs (e.g., intense play and long walks). I have experience administering medications, following feeding schedules, and handling special needs. Love capturing photos and sending consistent updates through out walks and visits. Full availability for walks on weekends, I currently work full-time during the week with availability after 4. Happy to work with your schedule if needed :) I make sure the environment is clean, comfortable, and free of hazards. Daily routines include feedings, walks / playtime and affection, while weekly routines focus on maintenance like cleaning, grooming, and health monitoring. Always giving cuddles and playtime when wanted :)
“Susan was a lifesaver! She was able to help us in a pinch with our special dog Zoey. She took amazing care of Zoey and kept us updated everyday. We felt very comfortable with her in our home. We are so thankful for her help and so happy to find someone who loves and cares for Zoey. We will definitely be using Susan again.”
About: As a student, I took classes at the East Valley Animal Shelter in Los Angeles. I adopted a Pitbull Lab mix from the San Pedro Animal Shelter while I was in college. He changed my life! I was a pet sitter for several years, walking dogs, doing day visits, and overnights in the Southbay area. I currently have 3 pets: a Chihuahua Mix from a non-profit shelter and a tuxedo cat. A stray kitten was living under my truck and she basically adopted my dog. I love walking, swimming, the beach, hiking and just in general being outdoors. Pet sitting is my ideal part time job. I want to be outdoors and meeting new people/pets. I have two little humans I take care of and do have to be flexible because of their schedule. But I have plenty of time for your pets and I am good about schedules. Very detailed oriented. I am careful about fences, gates, and locking up when I leave to make sure your pet is safe and secure between my visits and while you are away. Whatever instructions you leave for me, I will follow.
About: I have been a dog owner all my life from a little Maltese to a pitbull. Along with cats, rodents, and fish. I am willing to take care of anyone! I’ve been walking dogs for about three years outside of Rover but am now joining this app for new opportunities. Hope to meet you and your pet soon! I am currently a part-time worker, so I have plenty of flexibility and time to give your pet lots of attention, playtime, and care! I have a big house with empty rooms and a backyard for your pet to explore. I am also open to taking your dog to the dog park or beach!
About: I’ve spent the last 10 years walking dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and caring for animals is truly one of my favorite parts of life. I’m super active, love being outdoors, and I’m always excited to take your pets on runs, hikes, or long adventures. If your pet prefers a slower pace, I’m just as happy to enjoy cozy couch cuddles and calm hang-outs. I’m also a cat mom, so I fully understand the different needs and quirks of both dogs and cats. Whether it’s playtime, exercise, or just keeping their routine consistent, your pet will be treated like family. My partner and I both have very flexible schedules, which means one of us is always home and available to give your pet attention, supervision, and love throughout the day. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! 💛🐶🐱 I’m self-employed and work entirely on my own schedule, and my boyfriend does the same. Because of that flexibility, we’re able to ensure that someone is always home to give your cat consistent care, attention, and supervision. Your baby will never be left alone for long periods — they’ll have company, comfort, and plenty of love throughout the day. We live in a home with a spacious, fully fenced backyard that has plenty of sun and grass for your pet to enjoy safely. We’re also just one block from a large park with a huge open grass field, perfect for playtime, walks, and outdoor enrichment. I’m a very clean and organized person, and I always clean up after pets and keep spaces tidy. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure everything stays neat, maintained, and respected while you’re away.
About: I’ve take care of every type of animal you can even think of, I’ve had rabbits, dogs, reptiles, cats, horses, guinea pigs, turtles, whatever you name I’ve taken care of it. If someone asked me to take care of their pet raccoon, I’d do it. I always have and always will be an animal Lover. I am part/full time and I’m open whatever days I’m needed. I’m available during the weekdays if you have work and weekends I’d you are busy. I have a fenced yard and my home is always welcome to any dog but if the owner would rather me stay at their home that’s okay with me too.
About: I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember and have always been surrounded by animals. Before having my own children, I had two dogs of my own who were a huge part of my life. I absolutely love animals and believe they deserve kindness, patience, attention, playtime, and a lot of love. I understand how important it is to trust someone caring for your pets, and I treat every animal as if they were part of my own family. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply making them feel safe and comfortable, I truly enjoy giving pets the care and attention they deserve. I’m available Monday - Friday after 3:00pm and available on some weekends. I do like to travel, so sometimes I’ll be busy. If you need weekend care, please don’t hesitate to reach out and inquire if my schedule doesn’t reflect those specific dates. I currently no longer have any pets in my home, which is why I am extending the extra time I do have, to share my care with others who need it. I would love to earn yours and your pets trust for any type of time or care your pet may need.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Torrance
Aleksandr always goes above and beyond whenever he takes care of our cat. He is very reliable, he visited our cat on a predictable schedule and fed him, cleaned up after him, gave him pets and played with him. He also sent us a few pictures and a short description about how things went each day.
We had an amazing experience with Sami for drop-in visits for our cat! She accommodated to our every ask and followed instructions clearly, communicating well when things came up or if we had questions during our vacation. She even went out of her way to bring in our packages for us before we remembered to ask. Our cat is shy so it was mostly care around the unit but she was very thorough and made sure to keep the space tidy for her when she came out later. Thank you Sami for making us feel at ease while we were away! Would recommend Sami in a heartbeat if you need pet care while out!
Elika has been an absolute lifesaver for me over the many weeks! I needed someone dependable to walk my dog, Daisy, while I recovered from surgery, and Elika went above and beyond every single day. Daisy absolutely loves her and gets so excited every time she shows up. Elika is super reliable, always on time, and great about keeping me updated on how their walks went. Knowing Daisy was in such good hands gave me total peace of mind and let me focus entirely on resting up without any guilt. If you need a dog walker who is genuinely kind, responsible, and amazing with all animals, I highly recommend Elika!
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!
Christine was wonderful to work with and did an awesome job caring for my dog Jones. She is responsive, tried to accommodate shifts in the schedule if they happened, and her report cards and pictures made me feel like my dog was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend Christine to anyone looking for some help with their furry friends!
Kebri is awesome! She does a great job staying in contact while we are away and gives great updates on our cat children. She has also done a great job completing our asks when she’s watched our cats, including things like turning the fans/AC on when it’s hot and letting them out on the catio to play. Our cats love her and they are in great hands when being taken care of by Kebri.
Amazing sitter. Hired for drop ins and I couldn’t have asked for a better person. Lyra has just done a big move and lots of changes so she was terrified of Kaydin at first and then Kaydin worked her magic, making Lyra feel sooooo comfortable almost immediately. By visit #3 she was confident with Kaydin and by day last day of drop ins, Kaydin was Lyra’s bestie. Super communicative, super punctual, I am overbearing and a worrywart af but I had peace of mind by day 2 because I knew my baby was totally cool with her. Call Kaydin Dennis Haysbert the way my dog was in good hands. 12/10.
Sofia rocks! This is our second time having Sofia watch our kitties. She totally helped us out with a last minute care need and she even helped reset our router during the trip when we have wifi troubles and stayed through meal time to make sure the feeders were back up. Thank you again!!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Torrance on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 20,280 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Torrance. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Torrance stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Torrance. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
