“Beth has taken care of our Leo twice this year. She's been amazing with him and provides us with a peace of mind that I could have only dreamed of. She send photos and videos, and provides updates during her visits with him. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter. Thank you, Beth!”

What I offer: -Dependable dog walking, drop-in visits, and daytime care. I am willing to consider overnight care for the right pet. -Respect for your pet’s routine: feeding, medication, exercise, and preferred play styles. -Clear, timely communication with photo updates so you always know how your pet is doing. -Safe, attentive care focused on comfort, exercise, and enrichment. Why choose me: -Reliable and responsive — I treat each pet like family and prioritize their safety and happiness. -Flexible schedule (work-from-home most days) means consistent visits and peace of mind. -Energetic and active — I’m looking to stay fit while giving your dog great walks and playtime. I’d love to meet you and your pet for a quick meet-and-greet. Send me a message and let’s set it up! I work from home and I have a flexible schedule. Also, my mother retired early and lives with me and is very active. We have a 3 year old labradoodle that spends most of the day with us and gets a walk every day. I also take breaks and throw toys in the yard. Dog life is built into our schedule. I have a fenced in yard and front porch to keep pets safe. We live in downtown Benicia, in a dog friendly and very walkable neighborhood.
About: I grew up with animals all my life. From cats and dogs to parrots, mice, sugar gliders etc. I own 2 dogs myself and love them with all my heart. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and ages. I fostered and volunteered at several shelters throughout my life. I love animals and will make sure to take care of yours like my own. I have a flexible schedule and own a vehicle which makes same day bookings a breeze. If you ever need someone to help I’m there :) My dogs are spoiled and loved. I keep them safe and healthy. I would do my best to take care of your pets like you want me to.
“Erin take wonderful care of my two pups! She takes my schnauzer for walks and takes my little old Shih Tzu out to potty and administers her mid day eye drops. She is always on time and provides great updates!”
“Patricia was great with my two cats! Even though it was her first visit, both of my indoor kitties came out and greeted her. My senior cat, Juliet, who only likes me and my daughter, actually came out to say hi to Patricia! She truly is a cat person and will take good care of your fur babies. I’m sure I will be booking her again!”
“Nancy is really awesome. She has watched my dogs twice and the second time was a more urgent matter and she was able to help me out :’) she updates if they are, poop or pee which is helpful to know! Nancy is the best!”
“Allyson is great with our pups, super reliable, and has a lot of experience with animals, which gave us a lot of confidence leaving our senior dogs with her! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Samiah did a wonderful job taking care of Snow. She was very attentive, reliable, and kept us updated during our time away. We came home to a happy, well cared for dog and a clean home, which gave us great peace of mind. We’re very thankful for all her help and would gladly book with her again. Highly recommend! 🐶💕”
“Isaiah could not have been a better pet sitter! He has a very gentle soul and is obviously an animal person. Our dog, who is ofter a little cautious with strangers, bounded up to him when we did our meet-and-greet. Even our standoffish cats gave in to his calming ways. Coming home after 5 days away, we found our house in perfect condition, all the pets food and water filled, the litter box clean, and a houseful of contented animals. We will absolutely be having Isaiah take care of our pets in the future!”
“Amber is an amazing pet sitter! We are so grateful that Amber would watch over our elderly dog. Amber is a great communicator who is thoughtful, dependable, and kind. She is smart and flexible too. I would highly recommend Amber!”
“Alyssa did a wonderful job watching my two large pitties! She was extremely punctual and left detailed notes about what was happening while we were out of town and was very communicative!”
“Emma did a check in on my dog Ricky while I was at work. She was great! I felt very confident having her care for him. She was great with communicating with me and I would definitely use her as a sitter again.”
“She was amazing and very attentive to my dog Z. I really appreciate that she went above and beyond to play with and gave him lots of cuddles while I was gone. I’ll definitely ask for her to help again. Best experience I’ve had on Rover. 🐾”
“Alex was great with my naughty kitties, and worked with my shy (and problematic) one too! She was attentive and gave many regular updates and kept the house and kitty corners in clean condition for us while we're away. Thank you!”

Beth is professional, kind, thoughtful, and a very good pick if she’s available! She took care of my temperamental cat and made sure everything was just right. I am very grateful to have found someone I trust to take care of my cat. I will be hiring Beth again!
Thea has been cat sitting for my family for 2-3 years on Rover, whenever we go out of town. When we come home, the cats are always perfectly taken care of, and just mildly annoyed and dramatic, as you’d expect cats to be :) Thea is always super responsive and we trust her completely in our home.
Telena has watched our shy kitty only twice, but has somehow managed to bring her out of her shell!! It normally takes our cat a long time before she warms up to people and she will usually just hide the whole time. But this time she came out and hung out with Telena which is so cool to see! Telena is super patient and kind with our cat, and very responsive while we’re out of town. I highly recommend her services !! Thanks Telena !!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Benicia on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 10,717 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Benicia. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Benicia stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Benicia. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
