About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have plenty of hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, basic routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention while their owners are away. I’m a stay-at-home mom looking to earn a little extra income doing something I genuinely enjoy, and I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and trustworthy caring for a member of your family. I’m a stay-at-home mom, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m home throughout most of the day. This gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine and schedule to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I have a completely fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, get some fresh air, and have plenty of room to move around. I’m happy to follow any feeding instructions, routines, walking preferences, or household rules you have in place. I’ll provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’m always happy to send photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“We’ve had Kimberly look after our cats a number of times now, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about her! She is very communicative, has great attention to detail, and I feel 100% confident leaving my babies in her care. If you’re heading out on a quick trip, or a week away, Kimberly should be your first choice!”

“Absolutely great having Kylee take care of our cat. You can tell she really loves and cares for animals and it showed. She went above and beyond in her service and couldn’t recommend her more!”
“Excellent! This was our first time using Anne & Joaquin and they were spot on. Our prior long term dog sitter closed during Covid and we had not done much traveling. We have four pups and we were worried about taking a vacation for the first time since Covid hit. Finding Anne and Joaquin was exactly what we needed to feel comfortable. They followed all the instructions to the letter and the kids, house, etc was perfect and as expected when we returned from a week long trip. We found our new dog sitter as life returns to normal and work travel and away from home commitments return. Thank you!!”
About: I’ve always taken care of all breeds of dogs. I love looking after them and seeing them happy. I have a special bond with pets of all sorts. My schedule has recently opened up and I wanted to do something that’d made me happy and being around dogs is just what I need. I’ll treat your pets like babies. Care for them, show them love and giving them everything they need. Walk them, feed them, play with them, etc.
“Robyn once again was a saint with our hound dog. While our Dixie is pretty routine and not too high maintenance, her body decided to make other choices and Robyn was patient with the chaos her body caused. As upsetting as that was for all involved, Dixie was her happy self in every picture and that’s the end goal. I just wish that end goal didn’t require a carpet cleaner. Thank you for all your time Robyn”
About: As a lifelong dog owner with a genuine passion for canine companions, I offer personalized care that goes beyond the basics. I create custom routines based on your dog's unique needs—whether they require special diets, specific exercise, or simply extra cuddle time. My fenced yard provides a safe space for supervised play, and I send daily photo updates so you can see your happy pup enjoying their stay. I limit myself to caring for only one family's dogs at a time to ensure focused attention. With years of experience handling dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I understand that each pet has distinct personality traits. When your dog stays with me, they're not just a client—they're part of my family. "While I work full-time Monday through Thursday at the office, I work from home on Fridays and have weekends completely free. This schedule allows me to provide attentive care for your dog during weekend getaways, with drop-offs available Thursday evenings through Sunday/Monday mornings. Your pup will receive consistent, dedicated attention throughout their stay." "I offer a secure, fully-fenced backyard where your dog can safely explore and play under my supervision. My care approach includes regular potty breaks, personalized exercise based on your dog's energy level, fresh water always available, and meals according to your instructions. I'm attentive to your pup's routine and comfort, providing plenty of belly rubs, playtime, and cuddles. Daily photo updates keep you connected to your furry friend's adventures while you're away."
“Daniela responded quickly and on short notice to my request. She instantly got along with my pups and gave me unique details of her visit for every check in. She ensured they got play time and brushed them (when they weren't too busy zoomin) even though I hadn't asked her too Overall I'd definitely book her again”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 529 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cactus Forest. 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.

- 91% 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 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.
