“Whitney was amazing! She watched our bunny while we were out of town for a week, and he was so well cared for. I appreciate how thorough and caring she is, and I’ll absolutely be booking with her again. I highly recommend booking with her!”
“Alecia was awesome! She came over to meet Leo before taking care of him & we went for a short walk around the block. Leo is typically wary of new people but he accepted her good energy right away. Super communicative & easy going. Will book with her again!”
“Needed last minute help with potty break coverage while at work and Adam was great! Followed my super long (and likely overwhelming) instructions and my doggies were grateful for the visit!”
“Afia stepped in when our first sitter went MIA after we had already left for our trip and we were so grateful!! Our pup loved her, she was incredibly communicative, and I had no worries at all. Would definitely book again.”
“Camille was great with our 2 dogs! She took the time to come over and get to know them and asked a lot of questions. She sent pictures and gave updates which is so comforting when you’re out of town. She was great at communicating and we came home to happy pets. I would highly recommend and absolutely use her again. Thanks Camille!”
“Kristi was a great sitter for my cat, who is usually pretty shy around strangers. I loved the pictures on the Rover card and was happy Kristi fed her, gave her treats, and played with her. This was my first trip away since I adopted her and I felt very comfortable with the care she was getting. Will definitely keep Kristi in mind for the future!”
About: I have a lot of experience with walking dogs as I volunteer at the humane society walking dogs. I have experience taking care of sick cats and elderly cats in whatever needs they have. I take care of my dog every day taking him on walks or playing with him. I go to the humane society 3 times a week either walking dogs, hanging out with cats, or working in the clinic I care for the pets as I would my own, with all the love I can give. Whether that is taking him on daily walks, chilling on the coach, playing fetch, or bringing home pup cups
“Amazing! And when I saw Amazon I Mean we have one cat that hates strangers. But from day one of my cat meeting her she actually came out every day she was there to care for the babies. Instead of hiding like normal”
“Ashlyn was wonderful! She knew exactly how to approach our cat and made her feel comfortable and safe. She sent us comprehensive updates and photos while we were away, which gave us great peace of mind. When we arrived home, our cat was happy and not stressed at all, so Ashlyn clearly did a wonderful job caring for her. I feel like our cat is already missing Ashlyn! 😊 We would definitely recommend her and would be happy to have her care for our cat again.”
About: I have always been around dogs (both big and small) and cats. I have also had a gecko and fish. I love playing and taking care of animals. I currently work full time but I am available after 4 pm. I always have Monday and Wednesdays off so I can help out anytime. I am so used to taking care of dogs that I can crate, feed, water, cuddle, walk, let outside and play. I will treat each and every pet as my own. I believe pets are family.

“Mayne did such a fantastic job! Followed our instructions to a T, despite how overbearing they likely came across as. Showed such patience and kindness with our grumpy pup and I know they’re excited to see her again! Will definitely be booking again.”
“Morgan did a great job with our big boy. We were out of the country and she came by for drop-in visits to give him fresh air and some activity. I know he looked forward to the fun visits by all the wonderful photos she took. Thank you Morgan!”
“Spencer did a terrific job making sure my cat was fed and taken care of while I was away. He went above and beyond by giving her some extra food when my flight got delayed a day, so she would survive a day alone. Super Responsive and sent pics every day. Highly recommended!”
“Lauren and Drew are awesome! They take such great care of our pup and make sure he is well stimulated with walks and play time during their visit. They are timely and give a great update about each visit. I would highly recommend!”
“Steven was great!!! He is great at communicating and responds super fast. He was amazing with our dog, and gave great photos and updates in our rover card. Can’t wait to book with him again! Thank you so much for watching our dog!!”
“Our dog can be reactive and Shannon handled it great! He barked a little when he first met her but she was calm and won him over. She did some of his favorite activities with him and provided updates.”
About: With over 35 years of experience as a dedicated dog owner, I provide trusted and compassionate care for your pets. I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds from small Shih Tzu’s to energetic Australian shepherds and many in between. I understand that each dog has unique needs. In my home, pets are treated like family and given plenty of love and attention. They’ll enjoy a fully fenced backyard for safe playtime, along with daily walks, or games of fetch tailored to their energy level and preferences. There are no children or other pets in the home, allowing for a calm, focused environment, where your dog can feel comfortable, secure, and get the attention they need. I am an elementary school teacher. I am available all summer and holidays. My holiday breaks are longer than usual due to my teaching schedule. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I recently lost my 18 year-old Shih Tzu. So there are no other dogs in the home. Your dog will receive my undivided attention. I will walk your dog daily and play fetch in the backyard. Pets in my home are treated to lots of affection. I also have no children living at home so they get a lot of attention. Snuggles on the couch are welcome!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Alta Vista
Makayla was amazing! Our cat had a medical emergency and Makayla not only brought him to the emergency vet but stayed with him while he was cared for until the doctor was able to communicate with us and let us know our cat was safe. While we were worried about our cat, we always felt that he was in safe care with Makayla. She genuinely cared not only about our cats health but also was concerned for us being away from him during an emergency. We would definitely use Makayla’s services again!
Simply the best!! Audreylee has helped take care of my cats on many occasions and always goes above and beyond. She cares for my cats and communicates exceptionally well about their status and well-being while I’m away. Truly grateful to have connected with her via Rover. She will always be my #1 choice!
Kennedy watched my 3 dogs for a few days while I was out of town, including one that has stranger anxiety. All of them warmed up to her so quickly, including my anxious one, so I was very impressed! She sent updates during her stay and made me feel at ease about my babies. Would definitely book again!
I can tell my 14 year old baby Hope really enjoys your drop ins while we are out. The pictures and videos you send, Hope acts like she has known you for years. So calm and sweet to her. You already know what her favorite things are haha. Highly recommend and will continue to schedule. Thanks Lyndi!! 💜
Megan was fantastic with the extra challenges that came with my cat Tony. He’s difficult to administer medicine for and Megan was patient and willing to adapt. He also wasn’t feeling well and Megan cleaned up a few throw ups that Tony had while I was out of town!
Razan has been amazing with my girl. She helped me out by watching her for a weekend, but has become one of my go-to let out people during my long work days. She’s always sure to send pictures and videos as well as updates on how Cal is doing. In addition, my senior lady has some anxiety (especially after some recent moves) and tends to get into things. After she knocked over my trash can and spread the contents throughout the house, Razan happily cleaned it up for me as I was still stuck at work for the next few hours. Happy to have her helping us out and providing care for my girl while I’m away on trips or long work days.
Kelly was a great caretaker for my precious 18-year-old Kittie. Jasmine was very well-adjusted as I put it after having been gone for a whole two weeks. Very pleased with the care she received. I was very happy returning to everything being in order. Kelly followed the instructions closely and asked questions when she ran into a problem. I most enjoyed the dailey photos she would post on the Rover Report Card. I will be using her service again. Thank you Kelly -M

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Alta Vista
Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 4,266 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Alta Vista. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Alta Vista. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
