“Natalia has become my puppy favorite person in the middle of the day. She always jumps with joy the minute she sees Natalia coming through the door, and my sweet little puppy doesn’t even notice when I leave! Natalia Tree, my puppy joy as a she was her very own. She’s always punctual, and followed my instructions to the letter. She is truly a lifesaver.”


About: I’ve had pets around me pretty much my entire life, so caring for animals has always felt completely natural to me. I’m originally from Germany and now live in Los Angeles. I’ve also successfully raised three sons — so patience, responsibility, keeping routines running, and looking after someone who occasionally refuses to listen are definitely not new territory. I’m reliable, active, caring, and very attentive to individual personalities. Every pet has their own routines, boundaries, quirks, and very strong opinions about how things should be done — and I’m happy to adapt to them. My goal is simple: while you’re away, your pet gets a new second-favorite human — because I know better than to compete for first place. 🐾 I’m an author and work from home, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m around throughout the day. I live directly by the beach, which makes regular walks and outdoor time an easy part of my routine. Your pet won’t just be squeezed into my schedule — I have the flexibility to adapt my day around their needs. I treat every pet and every home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. I follow your pet’s routines, feeding schedules, walking habits, boundaries, and any special instructions closely. I pay attention to their body language and never force interaction. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, my priority is making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for — while keeping you updated so you can relax, too.
About: I grew up with beagles in my home and now own one myself. When I wasn’t taking care of our family dog, I was taking care of vizslas owned by the family I nannied for or helping out with my friends dogs while they would go away or just need help in a pinch. I currently have a 6.5 old beagle and have had him since he was a puppy. He loves other dogs and sleeps most of the day. I work full time remotely, but have control over my schedule and can be flexible. I currently work east coast hours from 6am-2pm, so my late afternoons-evening’s are pretty wide open. However I can definitely help with morning and day time walks if needed, just need some notice to fit into my schedule. As of right now, I am happy to offer dog walking and drop in mostly any day or the week and house sitting services on the weekend. I’ll likely be able to offer boarding services in the future, but not right now! I have a dog myself and use rovers often for dog walking and house sitting when we are traveling or out of town, so I understand how important the quality of care is for your animal. My dog was diagnosed with epilepsy in March, so I have plenty of experience with special needs dogs. Their well being will be my top priority when I am walking them or watching them. My beagle is naturally very curious and always looking to get into things, so I am experienced with always having eyes on dogs when I am watching them or walking them. I have experience walking reactive dogs and can ensure their safety is my top priority when they are in my care. If I am at your house, I will be respectful and ensure to keep your home the same way you left it.

“Alyssa was so responsive and understanding of my hectic schedule, which was something I so appreciated! She was great at following instructions, proactively followed up when I scheduled the wrong times, and when I got back my cat seemed relaxed and happy. Im grateful for her help and services! Thank you Alyssa!”

About: I love caring for animals! I've had my dog for 12 years since I found him as a stray, and I have experience working at animal shelters as well as working as an assistant to a concierge vet. I've worked at multiple animal welfare nonprofits and I’ve been successfully pet sitting for years; you can trust your family members are in good hands! I love to walk and play with dogs, take them to the beach, and love playing with cats (+ walk them if they’re into harnesses!) I’ll take good care of all their needs while you're gone, so you can rest easy! I have experience administering medication (injections for dogs + oral meds for dogs&cats). I’m comfortable with animals who are less socialized or don't like other dogs, animals, children, skateboards, etc. You won't need to worry about your pet's safety or comfort with me, just tell me what they need :) I work remotely and I can be super flexible with timing. FYI, I don’t bring my dog with me, unless it’s a house sit and you’ve specifically told me your animals are super friendly and wouldn’t mind - otherwise I leave my pup at my house! I have a remote part-time job with a team in different time zones, making my schedule super flexible. Let me know what your pet’s needs are and I’m sure I can accommodate! Unless you request otherwise, I let animals on the furniture and bed. I walk dogs every few hours depending on energy level and age. I’m happy to accommodate special requests if you communicate them to me in the booking or meet and greet!
About: Animals were a big part of my life since I was a kid. I believe that they make our lives and us much better. If you never loved an animal that means that a part of your soul is sleeping ⏰ I would love to take care of these precious creatures 🤍 🇺🇦🇾🇪I also know 4 languages (Arabic, Ukrainian, Russian, English) it will be easy to talk 😌 I’m currently working part-time, so I am free to take care of your babies and they will have a lot of attention and love 🤍 I have enough space to take care of your pets, I’m living in a pet-friendly condominium, also there is a park near me that is within a 5 minute walk, so I’m waiting for you 🤍
About: My love for pets began from an early age. My room was resembled a zoo by the time I was ten. Friends rely on me to look after their pets when they're away and I'm experienced with all types of animals and their required care. This is my primary business that I run with my girlfriend who is also available when necessary. I'm reachable 24/7 so owners can have some peace of mind while they're away and as much phone contact as they want. I have a charming little house with a completely fenced in backyard and friendly neighbors who all have a variety of animals. Your pets will have full time attention and be very comfortable when at my home or with me at yours.
“Annalisa was great with my 4 month old puppy! She was punctual, responsive, and engaged with Juniper. She always took photos and kept me updated with any changes & questions. She was willing to come for a meet & greet as well as for key pick up! I was grateful for the help!”

“Roxane was awesome! Very communicative and followed complex feeding/care instructions super well. Grateful to have someone so kind to look after Scout while I’m gone. Definitely will be booking with Roxane again :)”

About: I’m Ana, a lifelong dog lover and proud Doberman mom ❤️ My life revolves around giving my 3 year old 95lb baby the best life. My Milo is a high energy breed who has had reactivity and behavioral issues in the past (he is not dog friendly unfortunately). However, my love for him made me seek out professional dog training which gave me the knowledge to properly enrich his life to make him feel happy and confident even with other dogs around. I’m especially comfortable with large, high-energy, and overstimulated dogs but have no problem handling small dogs as well :) I understand that every dog has a different personality and threshold, and I don’t believe in forcing interactions with other dogs or overwhelming them during walks. I’m also a pediatric registered nurse which I hope builds your trust in me to care for your furry babies like they are my own! I’d love to meet your pup and become someone you can rely on to provide a productive, positive and fun session for your dog 🐾 Mid day potty breaks weekdays and weekends if needed. My schedule is ever changing so I am really flexible. Send me a message and I’m sure we can work something out :) Because of my experience in raising Milo, I learned a lot about leash handling, reading canine body language, managing triggers, creating structure, and keeping walks calm and controlled. I’ve also worked extensively on obedience. With me, your dog won’t just be going on a walk. We will make the most of our time and incorporate basic obedience when we’re together.
“Rachel was very easy to communicate with and great with our kitty! Leaving a pet in the hands of stranger while on vacation can be scary but Rachel helped alleviate our worries with her clear and apparent love for animals! Would definitely recommend 10/10.”

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. We had two springer spaniels growing up. Needless to say, one gets very good at managing their high energy, food schedules, zoomies, and walk-time. Above all, I'm especially good at relating to animals. Call me Dr. Dolittle! I am free 9am - 10pm. My days are spent working out at Golds Gym and Primal Move, playing tennis at Marina Racket Club, and playing chess on Venice Beach. When I walk dogs, I a.) let them take their time b.) maintain a firm grip on the lead c.) keep an eye out for traffic and oncoming pedestrians.
“Samantha was fantastic. She was helpful and accommodating. She kept us in the loop with how our cat clan was doing and sent lots of pictures. We would absolutely book with her again. Thank you Samantha!”

“We are so happy we found Natalé to care for our two cats years ago! She continues to go above and beyond making sure they are perfectly cared for while we are away. Hire her as your next sitter and see for yourself!”

About: Hi! I’m a speech therapist and lifelong cat and dog lover based in Venice. I share my home with my friendly cockapoo, and over the years I’ve had the pleasure of dog sitting a variety of breeds—including border collies, Italian hounds, and chihuahuas. I understand that every dog has their own unique personality and needs, and I’m committed to providing them with care that feels like home. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cozy companionship, your pet will be treated like family! I’m new to rover and have no reviews yet :( I work as a school based speech therapist, so after school or care during breaks are an option! Afternoons are best for my schedule. Let’s make it work! I have a large apartment in Brentwood, with a fenced in dog park on the apartment grounds. When caring for animals in other people’s homes, I focus on maintaining their usual routines, providing plenty of affection (if they want it!), keeping their environment clean and safe, and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
About: I grew up with cats but have taken care of numerous dogs throughout my life. I have experience with all sizes and temperaments, including seniors, special diets, anxiety-prone pups and routine-focused households. During the week I'm usually working in an Art Gallery in Inglewood where dogs are allowed. Working remotely is also possible. On the weekends im working in Retail on Abbot Kinney. I would love to discuss the schedule with you. Currently I'm house and pet sitting only. My apartment doesn't allow pets but I have no problem with moving into your home to make it as comfortable as possible for your fur-baby. I don't have a car, so it should be close to Venice Beach, walkable preferred.

About: I have a lot of personal experience with dogs. When I lived in Spain, I had three dogs: two German Shepherds and one Maltese, so I grew up taking care of dogs with very different personalities, sizes, and needs. Since moving here, I have also been helping take care of my boss’s dog and my neighbor’s dog, so I am very comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving them lots of attention and love. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and would treat any dog in my care as if they were part of my family. I work from home, so I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and attention during the day. My goal is to enjoy caring for a dog, since I’m not currently able to adopt one of our own. I live in a dog-friendly home near the beach, which makes it perfect for daily walks and outdoor time. I’m very responsible, caring, and attentive, and i would make sure any dog staying with us feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I would follow the owner’s routine carefully and treat their dog like part of our family.
About: I've been a dog walker, dog lover, dog groomer, dog kisser, dog snuggler, dog hugger, dog teacher and dog admirer since the day I was born. Growing up, my family always had a dog around the house. We had Mandy Dog (a German Shorthaired Pointer), Winnie (fluffy-sunshine-mix-a-doodle) and Paris (Australian Shepherd/Pitbull mix) at various stages of my youth. When I was 12, I raised my first puppy (a lil fluffy Golden named Lucy) and I taught her everything from sit to play dead. In high school I was a dog bather for a local dog groomer. From this job I learned about different breed personalities, needs and care. Currently, I work from home and would love to care for your friend. I'm very flexible on timing and availability. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns! I work from home and my schedule is very flexible. I can do same-day visits on the west side. Whatever you and your pet need I will try to accommodate. My front yard is enclosed and safe for sniffing and hanging out but I will be walking your pets all around my area (avoiding the canals) and playing with them on the beach (unless you don't want this/they don't enjoy that).
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Venice is $25

Megan took care of my 13 y/o Pomeranian while I was traveling overseas and she was absolutely wonderful! She sent me detailed updates + photos with each drop in which was greatly appreciated. She even helped out with a few things for my cat that I forgot to take care of prior to leaving for my trip even though my cat wasn’t part of the original booking. I didn’t have to worry about a thing while I was away. Highly recommend Megan for anyone looking for a pet sitter!

My fiancé and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our cats! Anton is SO communicative and proactive with sending updates about our girls! He’s been great with last minute bookings. As a gal with severe anxiety, I rest easy knowing the cats are in good hands with Anton.

Danielle came to our house prior to the day we had scheduled her drop-in visits. I really appreciated the opportunity to meet her in person before-hand. Everything on the day of her taking care of the furry folks in our home, went according to plan and we got a cute photo in the bargain. We'd definitely ask her to care for our pets in the future.

I’ve used Amanda countless times over the past 6 years!! She truly is the best and always goes above and beyond for me and my kittys. Knowing that Amanda will take great care of my kittys allows me to be able to relax while I’m away because I know they are in great care.

Catherine saw Tony (my cat) last minute as I took an emergency trip. Could not have asked for a better person to take care of my fur baby. Tony evidently had a great time and I have all the pictures to show for it. Already scheduling for future visits. Thanks Catherine!

Elizabeth went above and beyond caring for our cat while we were away for several days. She not only followed through on all that was asked of her, but took the time to really try to make our notoriously shy cat feel comforted and cared for while we were away. She was communicative and responsive throughout. Highly recommend.

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Venice on Rover is $26.64 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 18,766 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Venice. 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 Venice 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 Venice. 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.
