She made sure all of my pets were fed and taken care of, and she even cleaned up the messes they made while I was gone. 🐶🐱🐱 It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies and my home were in good hands. Haleigh was dependable, caring, and respectful of my home. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their pets! ❤️”

“Met Darla for the first time over Rover.com, but right off the bat, she seemed very responsible and dog loving that I had no doubt she’d take good care of our boys. She helped us on Drop In service twice a day to feed the dogs, give injections to one of them who is diabetic, and minor spot cleanings. She was very punctual and provided updates with photos in a timely manner throughout the entire 4 days we were gone. Overall she did an excellent job and would certainly recommend to other neighbors around for any petsitting needs. Thanks again, Darla!!!”

About: Pending on parents wishes, we take walks, play, I will have doggie toys or they can bring their own. I can do medication, including injections, give them breakfasts and snacks pending parents bringing what the babies like Im currently available everyday, once I start my daily job, I can still stay at your homes, and walk, feed and play. And all day onweekends, mindful that I am available now 24/7 I have a fenced yard, no other doggies on property. I always say less is more when it comes to meeting a new pup no matter the age. This is to gain trust with myself and them.

About: I provide private, one family at a time dog care in a calm, clean, and structured home environment. I am home full time, so your dog receives consistent supervision, a predictable routine, and truly individualized attention. This is not a high volume setting. Your dog is never rotated between multiple households or unfamiliar pets. Your dog is treated like a family member, not a booking slot. Because I care for only one family at a time, each stay is quiet, low stress, and thoughtfully managed. This approach is ideal for dogs who thrive on consistency, including seniors, sensitive personalities, or those who prefer a more relaxed environment. My home is clean, secure, and intentionally set up for comfort and structure. Days include walks, enrichment, and plenty of downtime. Dogs can sleep in their usual setup or nearby, depending on what helps them feel most at ease. I stay attentive and adjust care throughout the day to match each dog’s needs. I offer boarding, house sitting, drop ins, and dog walking throughout Los Angeles and Orange County. I’m always happy to answer questions or arrange a meet and greet to ensure the right fit. I maintain a flexible, home-centered schedule and structure my days around the pets in my care. This allows me to be present, responsive, and consistent throughout the day. I follow routines closely, communicate clearly, and pay careful attention to each pet’s comfort and safety. I accept only one family at a time and maintain a clean, secure environment. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of the space, follow house rules, and keep everything clean and tidy.

About: I’ve had a dog before and I started loving all kinds of animals since I was little. I also have some fish (most were goldfish, and right now I have a Betta fish), a rabbit, etc. I am pretty much free except for when there is a home nhl (hockey) game I love them so much that I’m currently in school to become a veterinarian. Your pet or loved one will be in safe hands with me. I will also do my best in making your love one feel comfortable and loved when your at work or on vacation and can not bring them with you. If you have a very active pet it is fine with me and if you do not that’s fine with me too. I currently work part time and during my down time I would love to broaden my career with my veterinarian degree and passion for them. I will always make sure they are secure and safe before any walks. If I see any other fur buddies coming our way during our adventurous walks I will cross the street (when safe) to make sure everyone is comfortable. Your fur buddy will have tons of belly rubs, lots of play times multiple walks and potty breaks throughout the day. Also if okay they will also get positive reinforcement with treats.

About: I adopted a dog when I was 8, a pomeranian, took care of it and raised it since he was 1 month old. Now I don't have access to him since we moved out, someone else adopted him because we didn't have the ability to keep him. Them adopted other two puppies, huskies, the same story happened as we tend to move a lot. 1 year ago I adopted a frenchie and currently raising it, on a healthy 24 pounds and very active and energic, trying to work on his hyperactivity so I won't be able to take him with me if requested. I'm a Uber driver, so I would always be able to attend any reservations outside of this times: ●Monday to Friday 11:30am - 2:30 pm, 5:30pm - 6:30 pm. ●Weekends negotiable, standard would be 11 am to 3 pm. I feed mine twice a day, depending on activity of the day I might rise the amount he eats just a little to make up for it. Then daily training of 10- 30 minutes with split treats to not over feed.

About: I’ve had pets since as long as I could remember. Right now, I have 3 babies that are my whole world. My dog, Chloe, is 17yrs and she’s been in my life since I was 6 years old. My rabbit, Eevee, was dumped and abandoned at a nearby field, and I found her while on a walk. She’s been with me for nearly 3yrs now. Then came my cat, Ponyo, and I’ve had her since she was a kitten, she will be 3yrs in July. I have always loved animals more than people, even more than myself, to be honest. I see every single pet, even ones that aren’t mine, as family, and equally deserving of love and respect. Update: My baby Chloe has recently passed and I am extremely heartbroken. She was my soulmate. I miss her everyday. Grief is love with nowhere to go. If given the opportunity to care for your pet I would not only be helping you but you would be helping me as well. My biggest and only responsibilities are my own little ones, so I am always at home caring for them. I struggle with my mental and physical health, so most regular jobs can be a bit too much pressure on me. I have 3 very different pets in my home that each have different needs. My dog being a senior means I have to pay extra attention to her and be diligent with her care. I am very knowledgeable and experienced in handling different types of animals of all ages.

“This was my first time using Rover so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Cleo was great to work with. She was super responsive and attentive to my cat. My Goldie typically doesn’t like people. She hides. I love that she provides pictures. Goldie didn’t hide and watched Cleo. That’s really a good start. This service was easy to use and I will definitely use Cleo again.”

We first used Dolores's services a couple of years ago, but unfortunately, we missed the window to leave a review on Rover. We really regretted that because she absolutely deserved a wonderful five-star review even back then! So my husband and I were truly happy to have the opportunity to entrust our three cats to her care again. This is especially important to us because our cats are quite sensitive to stress, and their comfort and peace of mind mean everything to us. We were so happy to see that they remembered Dolores, weren't afraid of her, and felt comfortable around her. In fact, their bond with her seemed even stronger and more affectionate this time! Our situation is a little unusual, as one of our three cats has special needs and lives separately from the other two. This means caring for our cats requires extra attention and an individual approach. Dolores is extremely conscientious, responsible, and attentive in everything she does. But what means just as much to us is that she doesn't simply take care of the basic tasks — she genuinely spends time with each of our fur babies, respecting their different personalities and habits. It's clear that she truly enjoys being around them, and they respond to her with trust and affection. While we were away, Dolores sent us photos of our cats, shared sweet little stories about her interactions with them, and responded to our messages. This helped us not only know that our cats were doing well, but also see how comfortable and happy they were in her company. It meant so much to us, especially since we missed our fur babies terribly! When you have to leave your beloved pets for several weeks, knowing they're in the hands of someone you can truly trust is incredibly important. We feel very fortunate to have found Dolores, and we're sincerely grateful for all the kindness, care, and attention she's given our cats! We wholeheartedly recommend Dolores to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter! ❤️

Angela was absolutely amazing! She truly went above and beyond during her drop-in visits with Lizzo and Kingston. She sent me so many adorable photos and thoughtful updates every visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. There was an issue with one of the automatic feeders, and she let me know right away instead of keeping it to herself. Thankfully, it ended up going back to normal on its own, but I really appreciated how quickly she communicated with me and stayed on top of everything. It's clear she genuinely cared about my pets, and that meant so much to me. I never had to worry because I knew they were in great hands. Thank you so much, Angela, from the bottom of my heart. I truly appreciate everything you did, and I will definitely be booking with you again in the future!

Jennifer was kind, caring, and compassionate. She treated sunny with care and love. In addition, she gave us daily updates on how sunny was doing. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. Sunny is usually afraid of strangers, but she immediately warmed up to Jennifer . Jennifer was asked to administer a complicated set of instructions for care of sunny, including handling medication and specific food. She did this very well and we are well pleased with her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Bellflower on Rover is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $26 per visit. 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of October 2026, there are 21,200 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bellflower. 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 .

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.

  • 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 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.
