“Kayla was great with my cat, Otto! He’s a bit nervous with new people but she was very patient and understanding with him. It was my longest trip away from Otto but she gave me regular updates for every visit and answered any questions I had while I was out. It was good to know my boy was well taken care of so I’ll be booking with Kayla again in the future!”

“We booked Jo to cat sit our one cat for a little more than a week. It was our first time having a cat sitter, and Jo was outstanding the whole duration. We had well written updates every visit with multiple pictures of our girl. Jo has a great eye for detail and diligently tended to our cat's needs. Jo was greatly accommodating and even left her a couple of well appreciated goodbye gifts. We were confident from Day 1 and the whole way through that we were in good hands. We'll be looking into Jo's availability the next time we need a cat sitter.”

“Shelby did a wonderful job during the drop-in visit with Cooper! Every instruction was followed carefully, and it was clear that a lot of attention and care went into making sure Cooper felt comfortable and happy. Shelby was both professional and incredibly kind, creating such a positive experience from start to finish. It’s such a relief knowing Cooper is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for most of my life and started dog sitting when I was 6 years old. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with a wide variety of pets and am comfortable caring for both common and more unusual animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, rabbits, rats, hamsters, snakes, reptiles, horses, and other small animals. I’m comfortable following individual feeding schedules, exercise routines, cleaning routines, medication instructions, and other special care needs. I understand that every animal is different, so I take the time to learn their personality, routine, likes, dislikes, and anything that helps them feel comfortable. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple types of animals in the same household. My goal is always to provide dependable, attentive care and make sure your pets receive the same love and attention they would get at home. I am currently not working at the moment, so I have my full days to give your pets the attention they need. Whether that be all day/night or just visits a few times a day. When caring for pets in their home, I do my best to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible so they feel comfortable while their owner is away. I give them plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and affection, while also respecting pets who prefer their own space.
About: I grew up with animals and have always had a special connection with them. I have worked with animals of all walks of life in an animal shelter & truly enjoy getting to witness their success. When working at the animal shelter I used to take dogs on walks and to the play pens where they would socialize with potential new families and other dogs. While they were in the play pens it was my job to ensure things ran smoothly and to deescalate any situations that might arise. Being able to celebrate in an animals victories and see how much they have grown & learned over time is like nothing else! I am wholly committed to anything your pet may need during our time together, no interruptions unless there is an emergency. If you have any questions about availability outside of my specified time frames please feel free to reach out and I will see what I can do! I would never do something to put your animals in harms way, I am incredibly thorough and will follow any specified instructions. If I have any questions about your pets needs I will be sure to seek clarification before taking any actions.
About: I’ve had several different kinds of pets growing up and currently have my own dog and cat. I know that each animal needs its own special kind of love and I am dedicated to understanding and proving your pet with exactly what they need while I care for them. I am currently staying with family so I have an open schedule! Book me for all your pet needs and I can provide quality care :) I have a fenced in yard with three other dogs in the home to keep your pet company. These dogs are very friends and well adapted to meeting others. I can provide walks and timely feeding while caring for your pet.
About: Hi there! I’m Miki, based in Arroyo Grande, CA. I’m back on Rover after taking a break for a while. I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life and have over 10 years of pet sitting experience — both personally and on Rover. At home, we have: • Lucy, our sweet senior Shih Tzu who loves her naps and quiet time • Anko, a playful 1-year-old Lab mix who’s board-and-train certified and loves making new doggie friends 🐶✨ Whether your pup prefers cozy relaxation or a fun playmate, our home offers the perfect balance. We take long walks, visit local dog parks (like Laguna Lake), and treat every dog like a member of the family. ✅ Dog-loving household ✅ I work from home 100% ✅ Experienced with both seniors and high-energy pups ✅ Safe, warm, and communication-friendly environment Looking forward to meeting your pup and providing the “feels like home” care my returning clients know and love! 🐾✨ I stay at home pretty much all day every day as I work from home. Especially when your doggy stays with us, I don’t leave the house unless it’s really necessary or go to park with doggies. Our front yard door stays open all day so doggies can go in and out whenever they want. I have a fenced yard, so they can play outside anytime they want. I usually leave the back yard door open so dogs can go out whenever they want.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. They are not dogs to me but my babies. My last baby was 15 when he left and was blind and deaf, Losing him about killed me. So now I spend my time loving on other people babies. Yes, I am that crazy dog lady! I will also send you morning and bedtime pictures so you can see your baby is doing alright and have peace of mind. You can always text me at anytime you want to make sure they are ok:) I have a deep love for little dogs! I am fine with special diets, medicines and blindness etc.. Most dogs who stay with me don't want to leave when their owners come back as they have been genuinely spoiled rotten!
About: I've had pets my whole life and their care has always come naturally to me. I've brought dogs in from puppyhood and trained them in everything from housebreaking to tricks for fun. I find structure and love go hand in hand when it comes to raising well-behaved, happy pets. From an energetic dog to a geriatric dog that needs gentle care, I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I am also very dependable and consistent — your pet's routine will always be respected with me. I'm a part-time employee and student, so I have a pretty flexible schedule to give your pets plenty of love and attention. I can generally accommodate mornings, afternoons, evenings, and even some weekends based on your needs and my work schedule. I’ll work with your schedule to make sure your pets are happy, safe, and never feel alone. Your safety and comfort are your pet's priority. I live in a quiet, pet-free residence with a securely fenced yard where pets may roam freely. I also live with a kind old Catahoula who also tolerates other pets. Either whether you board your dog in my residence or in your residence, I have a clean and peaceful environment as well as adhering to your pet's schedule strictly to keep them feeling like home and loved. You can rely on me to treat them like family.
About: I have been an animal person my whole life working with large animals to small, I’ve worked professionally with dogs and cats for 8 years My day job is as a dog groomer, I groom Tuesday-Saturday from 8-5, I am available after that time, Sunday and Monday anytime throughout the day Whatever service needed I can provide, I am an avid walker and hiker, located around many parks with reliable transportation for both myself and pets
About: I grew up with dogs and had my first cat siblings in university. I’ve grown as a person because of them and understand and appreciate their special place as family. I’ve volunteered at the local shelter, as an adoption admin at a dog rescue and shelter. I’ve taken my dog to training and agility and learned a whole bunch more training skills at the dog rescue and shelter. I am also a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner which my own dogs and clients have enjoyed and appreciated. It was my nightly thing with one of my dogs. I have a special bond with animals in general and deep ones with some. It’s such a blessing, a gift I appreciate. I tutor, have a part time job, and I offer Jin Shin Jyutsu, bioresonance, and Human Design services. At this time I can only take dogs and cats who can be left alone for 4 hours at a time. Building trust with your dog and cat is of utmost importance. I am approachable and it’s important for them to have their space. They are the priority. I will play with them, practice obedience or tricks with them with positive reinforcement.
About: I am not just a pet sitter; I am a highly experienced caregiver who understands that every dog requires unique, specialized attention. Having raised and cared for my own four dogs for 25 years, I know exactly what it takes to keep a home safe, happy, and structured for multiple pets. I am fully confident and experienced in managing complex health conditions. I provide specialized care for diabetes (including strict schedules and insulin shots), seizure management, and gentle guidance for seniors experiencing Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (CCD). From fragile 5-pound newborn puppies to independent 110-pound seniors, I understand the different handling, behavioral, and nutritional needs across all sizes and life stages. I am used to keeping up with a pack! I walked my four dogs every single day, meaning your pet will get the reliable exercise, outdoor time, and routine they thrive on. My community frequently relies on me to care for their pets because they know I treat every dog with the same level of vigilance and love as my own. I treat pet care as a core priority in my daily and weekly schedule. My routine is built around reliability and punctuality, which is crucial for pets on strict medical or feeding regimens. I dedicate my mornings, lunch breaks, and evenings entirely to pet visits, ensuring that diabetic checks, insulin shots, and senior care happen precisely on time. Because I am used to managing a busy multi-dog pack of my own, I am highly organized and adapt my weekly calendar to give your pets the consistent, dedicated time they deserve. I treat your pet exactly like a member of my own pack, offering a structured, safe, and loving environment. I follow your exact instructions down to the letter. If your diabetic pet needs breakfast and insulin at a precise hour, or if your senior cat needs specialized cognitive support at night, I am there right on time. Because of my extensive experience with seizures, diabetes, and other health issues, I am highly observant. I look out for subtle changes in behavior, appetite, or bathroom habits, and I know exactly how to handle medical emergencies calmly. I keep up your pet's favorite neighborhood walking routes and playtime rituals, ensuring they get the mental stimulation and physical exercise they are used to.
About: I have been a pet care giver for 24 dogs, 6 cats, some fish and farm animals. I have always grown up around many animals wether its little dogs, big dogs, cats, pigs, goats and bunnies! I absolutely love all animals, especially the big ones. I have done pet sitting, walking and administering medication for 5 years for animals other than my own. I work part-time, a few hours 3 days a week. My schedule is very flexible and I have plenty of availability for your furry friends. The day's I work I am home by 1-2pm and I have the weekends off to spend time with your animals. I have a fenced in acre for your pets to roam and enjoy. There is lots of turf, dirt and shade for our furry friends to run, play and rest. I have a friendly 3 year old golden doodle who loves to play and keep other furry friends company. I have a spacious and cozy room for overnight stayers and can crate if needed.
“Angelia did a great job keeping my cat comfortable and entertained while I was away! She sent nice pictures after each visit which really gave me a peace of mind! I’ll use her for future trips!”


About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of animals, including cats, dogs, bunnies, goats, fish, chickens, ducks, and more. Would love to take care of some animals while making extra money! I’m chronically ill and have not been able to work full time, so taking care of animals is the perfect job to sustain me while I recover. Need to save up for college and mh future as well ❤️ I cannot work due to chronic illnesses, so I’m free 24/7 to sit and take care of fur babies! Would love to help out :) My adopted kitty is monitored all the time and fed with water twice a day. I have just began fostering cats as well, and my current newborn foster gets around the clock care and feeding every 4-6 hours

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Arroyo Grande
It's a bit rare to have someone who's experienced with rabbits, Lauren is top notch in that regard! It was a huge peace of mind knowing someone could drop in on them each day and also get them some exercise and human interaction. I really appreciated her enthusiasm and level of care, detail, and updates!

Chelsea was great with our two dogs! Unfortunately one of them had an accident in the house and she didn’t hesitate to offer to clean it up. She took really good care of both of our dogs and walked our younger one. I would recommend Chelsea and rebook with her in the future. Thank you!

Bonnie provided amazing care for my cat, Leeloo, whike we were on vacation. It was our first real trip in years and I was nervous about how Leeloo would fare without us. Bonnie's updates every day and the photos she sent eased my mind and warmed my heart. When we returned Leeloo was happy and content. I am looking forward to future trips now that I know Bonnie will be there for my girl.

This was my first time using Rover, and my first time using Loren. I was so nervous.! but she made me feel so comfortable and took great care of my girls (I have two ginger cats). I can’t say enough good things about her and I will definitely use her again. Thank you so much, Loren! 🥰

Riley checked in on our 4 cats while we were in holiday for 1.5 weeks. She was AWESOME! So attentive to our cats and their needs/environment, very communicative (we loved and appreciated her updates and Photos) and was very kind. We felt that our kitties were in wonderful hands. Would highly recommend!

Shelby did an outstanding job and I would definitely book again. Communication was great, lots of photos with a detailed breakdown of the visit. Took lots of notes during the initial meet and greet. Punctual with all visits. I felt no stress at work with my pets care. My dog and cat both seemed to love their company! Would definitely re-book.

We found Madison to be conscientious, on time and very caring towards our kitty. Her communication was excellent and we were very happy with the service. We feel better planning future trips knowing we have someone to take care of a special member of the family!
I can’t say enough great things about Miki. She was absolutely excellent, super sweet, professional, and caring. She took amazing care of my pets and kept me updated the entire time with great communication and plenty of pictures. It gave me such peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pets.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arroyo Grande is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $43 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
