“Olivia was great. She did a couple meet and greets to make sure both she and pepper were comfortable. Then while we were gone she kept the communication open and sent great pics and videos of pepper. She even played interactive games with her to keep her engaged. I would highly recommend Olivia.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old. I have experience with both small and large breeds. It will be all love and play that your furbaby won’t even notice you’re gone! I work full time on weekdays (11am-6pm), with a 30 min commute, and am available early mornings and evenings. On weekends I am free almost all day. I have a dog at home and cannot care for more at my place due to limited space. I am happy to care for others at their home.

About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.

About: Hey there! I'm a gal who doesn't own a dog (just 3 cats!) who works from home some days of the week and is happy to take care of your pooch! I joke with my friends and family that I'm a kennel for their pups when they go out of town - why not help out other local friends! I have owned dogs my whole life but just don't have the time to own one currently so I'm happy to help out those that need someone to watch their fur baby! We have a wonderful large fenced yard in a quiet part of St. Helena. Your dog can have free access to the home and our fenced in yard. Quiet neighborhood next to vineyards where the pup can play! Happy to help you out - bring on the dogs! I love them all and am a fun and active person who will take wonderful care of your pet ( just ask my friends how obsessed I am with my cats Grover, Fat Freddy & Ralph!!). Thank you! I work from an office most days with the exception of event weekends and some evenings. I do sometimes have to leave during the day but your dog would be in a secure home with us. Fenced yard on the vineyard and close by lots of walking and vineyards. We do have 3 cats so I prefer your dog to be cat friendly or be able to take some hissing from them.

“I think Rosemary did a good job. GreyC was fine when I got home. I would have given 5 stars, except I booked R for 8:30 each morning. She seemed unable to meet this time as on 22nd she arrived at 8:47, 23rd arrival at 8:58, 24th arrival 8:32, 25th arrival 8:50 and 26th arrival at 8:40 (recorded arrival and departures on door cam). Evening bookings for 4pm recorded as 4:08 on 22nd, 4:00 on 23rd with departure at 4:20, 4:29 on the 24th with 4:53 departure, 4:45 on the 25th with 5:13 departure and no recording for the 26th afternoon? Thank you”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a young girl. One thing that will never get old is the bond you can create. I have worked with senior dogs, second chance animals in shelters, and even new born puppies. I have time and time again helped my friends and family train and look over their dogs. I work as a starbucks barista! My shift are usually short so I have more time for your pets! They are also very good about my availability! My pets at home are my babies. I always give them treats and make sure no matter what time I get home they have enrichment time.

About: Since I was a child I have taken care of the family dog. They are like family to me. I have worked at a dog spa since May of 2025 so that I have experience on handling dogs. I can bathe your dogs and brush them but not groom them. I love animals like family. I also take care of my sister’s golden retriever when she’s away on trips. I work Tuesdays-Saturdays from 10am-6:15pm so on my work days I can house sit your pets, take them for walks and take care of them after work and my days off I’m available anytime. I have a cat at home who is spoiled. Every day she gets groomed, loved and cuddled with. She couldn’t be more happier. I even have a filtered water fountain for my car to drink out of I clean every two weeks. I enjoy cleaning her food bowl every morning and give her dental treats to make her gums and teeth healthy. When it comes to clients pets I’d do the same as if they were my own pet very loved and spoiled. When I had my family dog she was very loved and spoiled as well. Every day do walk her, brush her, feed her and cuddle with her making the happiest dog she can be. All animals I treat equally.

About: I love animals and can feel their character :) so will treat and care for them based on their personalities. What they need is warmth and love from us, and responsible, attentive supervision :) I grew up with a variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and birds, in my home, and also continued to own and care for pets as an adult. I have extensive experience caring for special-needs dogs and pets that are navigating illness. My own dogs had health issues which required a significant amount of special attention and care, which taught me a great deal about how to provide for them. I have a flexible schedule and work from home. I am always happy to take a break and take your dog for a walk or come and check on it. The fresh air and exercise is good for both of us! I care for pets with love because they have the right to be happy too :) and Iwill follow your house rules, play safe and have fun with them. I am a very responsible, conscientious person, and hold the well-being of your animals as my highest priority. I will follow your guidance and rules with diligence.

About: Ever since I was a kid I’ve had a passion for animals, and animal care. I genuinely love working with them, dogs are my strong point, and I have years of experience as well as have some training under my belt. I also am experienced in handling reptiles and large livestock! 🥰 I also wanna state that I can and am always willing to help out, however I do have a job I work Monday through Friday during the early afternoon to evening, so usually anything after 4 or 5pm works for me best! I work part time at a dealership in Santa Rosa, so I do have a lot of free time! I don’t mind over nights, and I don’t mind early mornings if need be! I’m very flexible with my schedule! Tell me what you need and I’ll do my best to accommodate your requests! I am very trustworthy, and since I love all animals I will always go above and beyond to treat your fur-babies like royalty! Animals are so important to me, sometimes I enjoy their presence more than people! I have experience in the veterinary technician field and all my friends and family say I am great with animals. Usually pets or animals come up to me when they don’t like others! I would treat your fur-babies as if they were my own, ALWAYS!

About: I have lots of experience caring for pets, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just spending time with them, I cater to each pet’s individual needs. I’m passionate about animals and strive to provide the best care for your pets while you’re away. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, as I prioritize giving each pet the attention and care they need. Each day includes feeding, walking, playtime, and regular check-ins to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Weekly, I ensure pets get consistent exercise, mental stimulation, and any special care they may require, like administering medication or grooming. Pet care is a rewarding part of my schedule, and I make sure to provide a structured and loving environment for every pet I look after. When caring for pets in my home, I create a comfortable and safe environment tailored to their needs. I ensure they have plenty of space to play, rest, and explore. Pets receive regular meals, daily walks, and engaging activities to keep them happy and healthy. I also provide lots of attention and affection, treating them like family members. Whether it's grooming, training, or simply offering companionship, I make sure each pet feels loved and secure during their stay.

About: When I wasn’t with my horse or loving on my own pets, I was the go-to pet sitter for family and the neighborhood dog walker for anyone who needed an extra hand. I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—including my sweet puppy Blossom, who was in a wheelchair and had hydrocephalus (water on the brain). She needed round-the-clock care, and I was there for every moment, so I understand how much love, patience, and attention pets deserve—especially those with special needs. I’m caring, loving, and endlessly patient, and I promise to treat your fur baby like my own. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or a good old-fashioned game of fetch, I look forward to being the reason your pet can “smile” during the day… even if I have to make silly faces or use my best squeaky-toy voice to do it! Lol. I already spend part of my week walking dogs for a friend, and it’s one of my favorite parts of the day. Since I work from home, I’ve got plenty of flexibility for walks, hikes, playtime, and all the tail wags and happy zoomies your pet needs! Let me know what YOU prefer for your fur baby. (: I’m more than happy—and honestly, I prefer—to come to you! It gives me a nice break during my workday and lets me spend quality time with your pet in their own space. I’m great at reading animal behavior and body language, and I have experience caring for pets with special needs (I had my own), as well as handling aggressive behavior, food aggression, nervousness (I’ve fostered pups with these challenges), training, crate training, and more. Just let me know what your pet needs, and I’ll adapt to make them comfortable and happy!

Siarra did a wonderful job dropping in twice a day to care for our cat. She gave him extra love and attention when she could, even spending a whole morning with him. He got supervised outdoor time as requested and I appreciated the many cute photos she sent. Siarra was very prompt with communicating with me. I would love to have her provide pet care in the future :)

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Bale

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,629 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bale. 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 Bale. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
