“Yesenia is an actual angel! We booked with her last minute. We met prior to traveling and I immediately trusted her. She is so sweet and sent pictures daily and was always available when I messaged her! When we came home the house was spotless and our boys were so happy. :) we will definitely use her again!”
“April K. was an excellent house and dog sitter for our 12yr old senior dog Hank. She provided many updates/photos of activities with our dog which helped us relax a bit more on vacation. She is very communicative and responsive, good with detailed instructions, and happy to help out with miscellaneous things around the home. We would not hesitate to book her again if we take future trips away!”
“Jimena did a great job with my sweet but neurotic cats (and their neurotic owner)! I was nervous about going out of town because the cats had recently been demonstrating some changes in appetite. Jimena sent lots of pictures, which helped ease my mind, and she was vigilant in reporting back to me about the cats’ meals and bathroom habits. My shy kitty also seemed to warm up to Jimena quicker than she usually does with new people!”
“Jovelle took such great care of my two dogs and two cats: everyone was happy and healthy when I got home, and no one seemed stressed out or lonely. Her daily communications and photos were great and kept me connected to my fur babies.. She left the house neat and tidy and she was an excellent house guest. I would highly recommend her and hope to have her house sit again.”
“Paulo was excellent with my dogs. Very friendly guy and very punctual. Sent tons of videos/photos of him doting on my two dogs. Will definitely be using him again when I go or of town.”
“Mike stayed with both of our pups while my husband and I had an overnight and did a great job. Our puppy can be a handful and our older girl suffers from some anxiety… both pups have looked for him every morning! He is very attentive with both dogs and is very patient with all of my instructions😀 we will continue to have Mike watch our babies… pretty soon he may be their favorite human!”
“She did a great job caring for my needy pup and keeping my house in order during an extended trip. It gave me peace of mind while I was gone, which I appreciate a lot.”
About: "Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole." Having to leave your pups in someone else's care can be unnerving, I know firsthand because I have had to use the service. Our pups are our family members and we want to ensure they are well taken care of. I invite you and your pup over to meet us and see our home. Your furbaby will be treated as family here. We have a 7 year old Jack Russell Terrier Mix that simply adores his playtime with other dogs, as well as a 4 year old female Italian Greyhound Mix. We allow them and guest pups full reign of the house and backyard. They have their own room to sleep in at night so we do not need to crate, however we welcome you to bring your pup’s for their comfortability. We take at least one long walk a day and visit various dog parks occasionally. "Dogs do speak but only to those who know how to listen." - Orhan Pamuk I work full time but only have to go to the office Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I’ll be home all other days of the week! I am a longtime dog lover with a ton of home boarding experience. We welcome your pups with open arms and accept almost all nonaggression dogs.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 5 years and absolutely love spending time with animals of all kinds. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or small pets, I treat each one like my own. I’m experienced with feeding, walking, cleaning up, and of course—providing lots of love and attention. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, and I always make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am currently enrolled in a Surgical Technology program. For the next few months, my coursework is online, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to provide attentive care throughout the day, including overnight stays when needed. My availability includes: • Weekday drop-in visits and walks • Morning, afternoon, and evening care • Overnight pet sitting and house sitting • Weekend availability for walks, check-ins, and extended stays I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether your pet needs a potty break, a walk, playtime, medication administration, companionship, or overnight care, I strive to provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own and prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness while you’re away. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I’d love to learn more about your pet and how I can help keep them happy, safe, and well cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide trusted, respectful in-home visits where your pets can stay relaxed in their familiar environment. You’ll get dependable care, clear communication, and peace of mind every time.
About: I offer calm, personalized care in a quiet home where your dog is treated like family, not one of many in a busy boarding facility or a home with multiple dogs. I typically host one household at a time, so your dog gets my full attention, genuine affection, and all the cuddles they can handle. My home is the right fit for friendly dogs who love companionship, walks, and settling into a peaceful routine. I'm especially drawn to dogs who thrive with one-on-one attention rather than the noise and energy of a busy multi-dog environment. I'm certified in Pet CPR, Healing Touch for Animals, and Reiki. And beyond the credentials, I'm deeply attuned to each dog's personality and energy. That attunement is what helps them settle in quickly and feel genuinely at ease. My connection to animals runs deep. I spent five years volunteering at Lindsay Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, working in both the mammal department and wildlife hospital with injured and recovering animals. That experience sharpened my understanding of animal behavior and reinforced something I already believed: animals feel safety before they understand it. My goal is always to create that feeling from the moment your dog arrives! Because I work from home, pets in my care are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm and comfortable daily routine. I primarily host dogs from 1 household at a time so each pet receives plenty of individual attention. Dogs here enjoy daily walks, playtime, and relaxed downtime, and I’m home much of the day since I work from home. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs so they feel safe and settled. For drop-in visits or walks in a client’s home, I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, litter care for cats, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to send photo updates so owners know their pets are doing well.
About: Hi everyone! I love all animals! Your pet and I will definitely have a great time together! I am trying to become a veterinarian in the future and this is a great start for me! I have a park that is a 5 minute walk from my house and I have a huge yard for any pet that likes outside activities. I can care for disabled pets and older pets as well. I have always wanted to live in a farm because of all the animals but this is close enough for me haha! I have a dog of my own and he will love the extra company and play time. Be certain that I will care for your pet like it is my own! Thank you for reading!
“Isaiah did an amazing job while we were gone! It was the first time we left our pack at home and everyone adjusted very well. Communicating, trustworthy and our puppies loved him! We'll definitely book again for our upcoming trip.”
“Tracy was a great pet sitter for our dog while we were away for a long weekend. She was respectful of our home and kept the place just as we'd left it. She accommodated all of our scheduling and pet care requests and communicated with us well all through our trip. Our dog was well cared for and happy when we returned home. We would gladly recommend Tracy to our friends and book her again! Thank you Tracy!”
“Rachel did a fantastic job taking care of Rooney while I was out of town. She followed all instructions, kept me updated with frequent photos daily, and showed genuine care for both Rooney and my home. She was very attentive to Rooney's needs and treated him like her own, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!”

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Bay Point walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Bay Point maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bay Point choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.
