About: I got my first cat for my sixth birthday (Rosella- female) and she was there with me throughout my first few years of college. I rescued two cats when I graduated (Coconut -male, and Churro -female). They are my children and I spend every moment I can with them. I’m very passionate about animals in general, but especially kitties! I know when to give them space and when to give them cuddles.
“Milla watched my cats for a long trip and she is great at communicating and was very professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She responded quickly when I had questions and my cats really liked her. She kept my space clean and tidy for when I came home as well. Thank you Milla!”
“CJ did a great job with the cats while I was gone for 10 days. He was able to come twice a day and hang out with them and give them the attention they needed. He updated me on everything and was easy to communicate with. He also shared great pictures from each visit! I came home to two happy cats.”
“Gretchen was really great with Suni and spent some time with him outside. She sent photos and updates during the hour and put up with the process to kennel him when she was leaving. We would definitely book with her again.”

“Maureen is beyond helpful, kind and knowledgeable when it came to taking care of my cat Kolo.

“Madison & Moses are awesome! So easy to communicate with and both have a great, calm energy that was perfect for helping my shy, anxious, rescue pittie feel right at home. It’s clear they’re both well-versed in dog behavior and I appreciate that they met my dog right where she was at. They had no issues giving her the time, space and patience needed to open up in her own time - it made all the difference. Thankful to have found them!”
“She's great. My dog has never been with anyone but family and she is able to comfort him. With my schedule changing, it is wonderful having her as a backup for work. Like I said, she's great.”

“I couldn't have asked for a better couple to watch our pups. We are selling our house and needed to be able to find someone to trust to pick up, take care of our fellas on short notice. Their flexibility is amazing. Not to mention, I could immediately tell that their vibe was perfect for our dogs. Our Chi-winnie, who peed whenever he meets someone new, did not pee at all. And our Pittie, who gets overly excited around other dogs walked by other dogs like it was nothing. Freaking amazing. Love these 2!!!”
“Ben and Luke were great with Penny and she had such a great time with them! She had a blast playing with their 4 other fur babies. We'll definitely be a returning client. Thank you Ben and Luke for taking such great care of our baby.”

About: I only accept one doggie family at a time, so your dog(s) will be the only ones here for boarding and doggie day care. I wanted to create a safe place for reactive dogs, little loners, and calm senior doggies who just want a place they can be themselves and have my full attention! I am a dog-lover with my whole life of experience in caring for them. I have had them in all shapes and sizes - my first two dogs being big German Shepherds to my last dog which was a little Maltipoo, and a few in between. I have potty trained quite a few dogs in my life, as well as helped them through their senior years. Most important of all, I will love your pets like they're my own children! 🩷 I'm currently working part time from home so I have plenty of availability to take your pup outside for potty breaks or walks and give them attention throughout the day. I have a safe, fenced yard with plenty of room for sniffing and sunshine. Big dogs will have room to run and fetch. I also have senior dog care items like a step to get on the couch. I allow dogs to be free in the house, they are never crated unless the owner specifically requests it as part of their nightly routine. In that case - I have a long gate that can be made into a pen, and a cage for a small dog, if requested. Pets are family here - I have always allowed my own pets on the couch or bed and will do the same for yours unless you prefer otherwise.

“Jennifer (and her husband, Chris) were such wonderful caretakers to our dog, Odi! She was so receptive to texts and sent multiple pictures throughout the day to keep me updated on how he was doing.

I'm very grateful to have found them and Odi will be thrilled with another visit someday.”

“From the moment I met Alanna and her family I felt immediate comforting and nurturing energy from her and her family. The most recent visit I mentioned to Alanna that midnight and I had a very stressful week and that she needed a lot of love as I had failed her to keep her in a calm environment. The following morning she called me to inform me that she noticed worms in Midnight's stool. I was extremely worried and ashamed about the situation. I truly appreciate her gentle approach to the emergency. It's moments like this that are truly valuable. Thank you Alanna ? I know that Midnight is in outstanding and in the most caring hands with you and your family. ?”
About: I have personally owned two dogs, a golden retriever and an Australian shepherd. Though our sweet golden made her way across the rainbow bridge after 15 years together, our Aussie is living in WA with her grandma and grand-paw, where she has a big yard to play in! I have always had no less than three kitties at one time, until moving to San Diego. I now have two Maine coons, Milo and Milly. I like to describe them as a sassy teenager and a toddler going through his terrible two’s, but I wouldn’t have it any other way! Their spunky personalities are what attracted me to Rover. I’m so excited to meet your fur babies! I recently left my career in finance to focus on raising my son and to spend more time with my family and two kitties. Because of this, I have the freedom and flexibility to make my own schedule and accommodate your pets’ schedules. My two year old and I take 2-3 walks a day and trips to the park throughout the week, but we’d love to be joined by your pup or to make a pit stop to see your kitty! Personally, I do not let my cats outside due to how many coyotes are nearby. We do have a fenced yard for doggies to run and play in. Our home is clean, with endless toys for them to play with!

About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs within my family and my own friend’s dogs and cats as well. I have always liked being around pets of all kind. I am currently in the process of finding a part time job, so I can make time with any and all pets. This means I am available during any day and any time. At home, I have a dog named Ajax who primarily stays in our fenced in front yard. He has access to outside through my own room. His food and water bowl is set in my own room and he sleeps in my room as well either on my carpeted floor or my own bed.

I bring my love from a deep rooted place of humanity, helping other humans find security peace and ease while being able to enjoy life and also let their pets have fun. I work from home, I want something where I can get my mind outside itself and walk dogs, have fun with them, give back and check in and love on other humans in my own way. Through caring for the most precious thing we have, our pets. In my own home I have a 6 year old dachshund, I would be only doing over nights if I had a trusting relationship with said client. Going to a clients home, only if my partner can watch my dog and I as well have formed a trust with client. If a dog gets along with my dachshund and the parents approve after a few interactions I can absolutely share my home.

About: I have 2 years of dog sitting experience, including caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own.

Sometimes I’m flying, sometimes my event gets canceled. My schedule for the next day comes out 3pm the day before, so planning other activities is pretty spontaneous.

When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I keep the environment clean, calm, and secure—always double-checking doors, gates, and food instructions. During walks, I stay alert and prioritize the dog’s safety, using secure leashes and avoiding risky situations.

For cats, I offer comprehensive care, including keeping their litter box clean and engaging them with enrichment activities. I also stay on top of grooming, such as nail trimming and teeth brushing, to keep them healthy and happy. Your pets will always be in great hands with me!
“Justine is great 👍. Hoppy doesn't always like to walk when it's warm outside so she will play with her in the house. She's very attentive to Hoppy's needs. We are sad that she moved out of Long Beach, she will be missed.”

“20/10!! Savannah took amazing care of our pups!! Especially when it came to giving my one pup her eyedrops daily. She took the best photos and I could tell the pups had a great time! 100% recommend and would have our pups stay with her again!”
“Mark and his son were really awesome with our dog, Thor. We booked a 10 day stay, and Mark provided consistent updates on how Thor was doing. They walked him regularly and played with him often, and they have a great home with a back yard Thor could enjoy. I felt comfortable and confident leaving my fur baby with them!”
“Cerita took good care of my senior dog while I was away for a couple weeks. She sent photos and videos throughout his stay. He seemed happy and content. So glad to have found Cerita to board my 🐶.”
“Rippley and Biscuit loved Kaitlin and Verle! I was so happy to see how relaxed my reactive and senior puppers were at a new location. The pictures they sent me of the dogs in full potato mode assured me that they felt right at home.”
“My dog Mele recently spent 10 days or so with Madison and Moses. They regularly sent me photos of her, sometimes playing with other dogs. She seemed happy and healthy when I picked her up.”
“So kind to our pups and made it so easy to coordinate. Super fast response times and sent lots of pics while the pups were with them. They even sent them home with cute bandanas that we will cherish always. Amazing care takers!”
“Very caring and kind sitters, my dog was clearly well taken care of when I picked her up. Sent multiple videos and images daily of my dog, who got along well with both of theirs. Will be going back next time I need a sitter 👍”
“Freya was very well taken care of and I was always informed on how she was doing along with cute pictures. I will probably never have to look for another sitter again. Thanks Erica.”
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the way I treat every pet like family while tailoring care to their unique needs. I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies who need consistent training and gentle guidance, as well as senior pets who may require extra patience, medication reminders, and comfort. I focus on creating a safe, calm environment where pets feel loved and secure, even when their owners are away. Whether it’s reinforcing good habits, providing lots of play and exercise, or offering slow walks and cuddles for older pets, I adapt to what each furry friend needs. My goal is to make sure they’re not only cared for, but genuinely happy. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I am home full-time with no other job commitments. This allows me to give pets my full attention throughout the day In my home, pets enjoy a clean, bug-free space with a fenced backyard for safe play and exercise. I provide fresh water, regular breaks, and lots of attention.
“Charlie was awesome, my dog actually came home tired which is a wonderful thing! He kept in constant communication and sent updates. Will definitely be having Guetta stay with Charlie again!! Thanks again :)”
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! My dogs were genuinely happy and comfortable the entire time they were there. I received regular updates, photos, and great communication everything you could hope for when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. It gave me total peace of mind, and I’m so grateful. Highly recommend!”
“Terri is a true animal lover. She cared for my dog Lucy over the weekend. She took Lucy for plenty of walks and even took her to the lake a couple times. Baked her some dog treats and even sent her home with a batch. Plenty of pictures. We are very pleased.”
“Todd/Bill are the best. Its very obvious why the have such great reviews, Truffles had an awesome time with all the dogs. Bunch of great pictures and videos and updates.”

“Aki watched my pup for one week while we were away on vacation. She had so much fun she almost didn't want to come home! I appreciated the daily pictures and daily walks. She even sent home my dog with a little toy and a gift bag. Thank you so much for taking great care of my little Peanut!”
“Katelyn and Paul took great care of our pup, Calvin. Despite having undergone an unexpected major procedure one week before leaving for our wedding, Katelyn and Paul did not hesitate to take Calvin into their care. He healed up nicely, he got to go on beach adventures, and he absolutely loved playing with their dog Winnie. We look forward to being able to drop Calvin off during our future travels, knowing that he's in good hands!”
“We loved Erika! Our pup enjoyed being so well taken care of, lounging in the sun in her very cute and secure yard, and getting all the snuggles and playtime he wanted. We look forward to booking with her again.”
