About: I’ve loved dogs ever since I was young. Ever since I was a teenager I enjoyed walking my family, friends, and neighbors’ dogs. I have experience with dogs of all ages and many different breeds I am available to walk, board, or visit your dog all days of the week. I prefer to be notified at least a day in advance so I can properly schedule and prepare to care for your dog. I have a large backyard with clear space for the dogs to around and play. There is open space in the living room for dogs to relax, with room for dog beds or anything else they arrive with. This space is gated off from the rest of the house for safety. There’s enough room to separate the dogs from one another if they need space.

Belinda watched my cat, Bella, for about 3 weeks and she did fantastic! Bella warmed up to her right away. Belinda was great about sending photos and making sure Bella’s food, water, and litter were taken care of. It made me feel much better knowing that there was such a caring person looking after my girl. I’d be happy to book her again.

Sydney is the best! She really cared for Astro. I hired her for half hour visits but she usually stayed an hour and even took Astro for walks. She was very communicative through out the week we were away. I’ll definitely hire her again!

the most understanding + patient dog sitter we’ve ever encountered. she’s very careful + treats our puppy as though he belongs to her. not only does she go above + beyond with her service, but also goes above + beyond with her attention to detail when it comes to her reports while he’s under her care.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and attention I give every dog as if they were my own. I understand that every pup has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or prefers a calm, relaxing day, I'm happy to match their pace. I'm patient with puppies as they learn new routines and gentle with senior dogs who may need extra care, slower walks, or medication reminders. I believe in keeping pet parents updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy peace of mind while you're away. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, compassionate, and worry-free care so your dog is happy, healthy, and excited to see me again. I work a hybrid schedule, and most of my work begins after 3:00 p.m. During the day, I occasionally visit clients for about two hours before returning home, which gives me flexibility to care for your pets. Although Rover is my second job, your furry family member will always be a top priority. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they receive the love, attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I'll always keep in mind that someone is counting on me to provide safe, reliable, and compassionate care, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, my priority is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy while maintaining their normal routine. I take the time to learn each pet's feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, fresh water, and regular potty breaks. If your pet enjoys walks, we'll spend time outside getting exercise and exploring safely. If they prefer relaxing and cuddling, I'm happy to provide a calm and comforting environment. I also believe communication is important, so I'll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout the day. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease, knowing your furry family member is being cared for as if they were my own.

About: I have experience petsitting for friends and family when they go on vacation, which sometimes lasts more than a couple of weeks! I am a very active person, so I love going on walks and playing fetch with pets. I have experience with dogs, cats and even birds! I love all kinds of animals so I'll make it my priority to make your pet feel safe and comfortable. I have flexible schedules for Saturdays and Sundays! On Monday-Friday, I am certainly available after 6 p.m. Weekdays flexibility varies for morning-afternoon so any weekday availability will be provided ahead of time. I am always happy to accommodate to any special pet needs! I will ensure that they are walked during their typical walk time, that I clean up after them, and spend quality time with the pets. For drop-ins, I will ensure that pets feel comfortable by feeding them properly, providing playtime, and respecting their home. I would be happy to openly communicate with the clients (send updates, photos, etc.).

About: Pets have always been a big part of my life, and I truly believe pets are family. I’ve spent years caring for the dogs of family, friends, and neighbors. I’ve looked after dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I always take the time to understand each pet’s unique routine and needs. Dogs have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with Dalmatians and have spent the past eight years raising two friendly, goofy, and well-socialized rescue beagles with my wife. Together we have also fostered rescue dogs for weeks at a time until they found their forever home. As your sitter, I will be your dog’s primary caregiver. I’ll personally handle walks, feeding, fresh water, medication if needed, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand that every dog has their own routine, energy level, and personality, and I’ll make every effort to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home. My wife is also a tremendous animal lover who enjoys spending time with every pet she meets, so your dog will benefit from being in a home with two people who genuinely love animals. While I’ll be responsible for all of your pet’s care, they’ll also receive extra affection and companionship throughout their stay. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard patio, and we live in a safe neighborhood with plenty of green space. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. My goal is simple: to treat your pet with the same love, patience, and respect that we’d want for our own. I primarily work from home with a flexible schedule, typically on East Coast business hours. Most weekdays, I’m available beginning around 2:00 PM for dog walks, drop-in visits, playtime, potty breaks, and other pet care needs. On days with a lighter meeting schedule, I’m often able to stop by earlier in the day for a walk or visit before returning to work. I occasionally work onsite once a week, but I typically leave the office between 2:00 and 2:30 PM, allowing me to be available for afternoon and evening care. For boarding and in-home pet sitting, your pet won’t be left alone for long periods. I will be your pet’s primary caregiver, and because my wife works full-time from home, there is almost always someone at our home to provide companionship, supervision, and peace of mind. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. Before every booking, I’ll take the time to learn about your pet’s routine, personality, dietary needs, medications, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that’s as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or ours, I’ll be your pet’s primary caregiver. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of exercise, playtime, fresh water, meals on schedule, potty breaks, and lots of affection and attention. I’ll also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Our home is clean, safe, and pet-friendly. We have a securely fenced backyard patio and two friendly, well-socialized beagles who enjoy the company of other dogs. For cats or pets that prefer a quieter environment, we also have a secure private room where they can relax in their own space away from our dogs if needed. I understand that every pet is unique. Some love adventure and play, while others simply want a calm environment and a predictable routine. I’ll always respect your pet’s individual personality and comfort level and care for them with the same patience, compassion, and attention that I give my own animals. For the health and safety of all pets in our home, I ask that visiting dogs and cats be up to date on their vaccinations and flea/tick prevention.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs since I was 6 years old. My family plus my extended family has always had dogs. I’ve baby sat dogs since I was in elementary school and I love to play and walk with dogs 🐶. Outside of the parents I will be your dog’s new best friend 😁 I’m a part-time ER nurse so I only work twice/week. I try to be as outdoorsy as I can and I’d love to have a good doggo companion to go for walks/runs with Dogs are family. Dogs here will be treated as such. I’ve always fed my dogs on a consistent schedule (your dog will eat on whatever schedule you want them fed) and I will take them for walks and I have a yard where dogs can run free and crazy!

About: Hello! Thanks for checking out my profile! My name is Diana and I have lived with cats my whole life and have had the pleasure of taking care of cats sinceI was a child. Caring for these wonderful feline companions is not just a job but a genuine passion of mine. At our cat hotel, we offer a nurturing and cozy environment, tailored to cater to your cat's needs. If you're looking for a place where your beloved feline friend will receive love, attention, and exceptional care, you've found the right spot. Feel free to reach out for more information—I'm here to ensure a delightful and comfortable stay for your cat! I work from home most of the time, so I can check on the cats throughout the day. I usually feed, clean the litter boxes, refresh water, and spend time with them during the day and evening. I may not reply immediately early in the morning, but I always keep an eye on the cats and will send updates once I am available. My home is calm, clean, and cat-friendly. Cats stay indoors in a cage-free space, and I make sure doors and windows are secure. For new or shy cats, I can give them a quiet separate room first so they can adjust slowly. I clean the litter boxes daily, keep fresh water available, and watch for changes in appetite, energy, or litter box habits. I also send photo or video updates so owners can feel comfortable while they are away.

Tatiana took great care of my fur babies. She made sure my dog and cat were happy and comfortable while my husband and I were away overnight. My cat is senior and requires medication, she had no problem handling that. Bogie (my dog) looked happy and relaxed when I returned home. I would hire her again!

Lynne is a GREAT sitter! She took notes on how to care for my kitten & volunteered to water the plants. When she arrived, she let me know that my kitten had accidentally been behind a closed door, she opened the door and put something in front of it so it wouldn’t close again. She was amazing and super sweet to the animals. 10/10 service and is going to be my go to sitter. Thank you so much for caring for them while I was away!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Bonita on Rover is $21.09 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 8,593 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Bonita. 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 Bonita 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 Bonita. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
