“We came home to the happiest pups! Reina took wonderful care of them during the week we were away even going the extra mile to cut up their food, which we really appreciated (and the pups did too!). It gave us such peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We would absolutely love to have her watch them again for future trips. Highly recommend!”
“Kaitlin did an amazing job in-house pet sitting my fur baby (dog) Caffe for 10 days while I was out of the Country. She was very responsive and sent photos and videos, further assuring me that Caffe was in great hands. Caffe was very happy and healthy when I returned. I will definitely be booking Kaitlin again!”
About: Since I was a little girl, I have always had a ♥ for animals. I've cared for dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, ducks, chickens, rabbits, and a mini pig. A plus for me is that I have been a foster for Animal Rescue of Tracy for 10+ years now, so I have experience with all sorts of dogs and cats, from those who need special medication to rambunctious dogs to newborn kittens. There is no animal you can give me that I will not love, pet, cuddle, and care for. 🌷 I am a responsible 25 year old who has been caring for animals my whole life. This is my first Rover account, but I have been pet sitting in the Tracy community for 10 years. I live on 1.5 acres with 25 + animals, so I am very experienced and would love to help out with your furry friends! :) I'm currently working part-time with the majority of my work being remote so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! 🏡 I live on 1.5 acres of property so your dogs will have plenty of space to run around, play, and relieve themselves. Depending on your dog's friendliness, they can remain inside with my two small dogs, or I can keep them in our supervised dog run area just for them. If you have cats, they will be contained in their own area in my house so that they do not run and hide, as new environments tend to cause anxiety. 🏠 If house sitting, I make the animals feel as comfortable as possible to ease any stress of their owners being away. Pets & play are always guaranteed. I also send pictures everyday & when asked! ⭐ My routine is simple: follow your directions on feeding, walking, medication if needed, and I will handle the other most important part: giving them lots of love!
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since 1997; from dogs/cats-reptiles/fish & I was taught to treat them with just as much care, love & respect that you’d give a child. I’m familiar with their care, needs & certain levels of training. That being said, I hope to have the chance to meet yours & care for them while you're away! I currently work from home & have had some extra time on my hands. I recently came across Rover & thought it would be a perfect way to invest my spare time in an intentional/purposeful & financially lucrative way. I can work around most schedules, whether that’s weekends, early mornings or evenings. The best part about animals is that they’re all so different & unique in their own special way; which calls for a different level of care from pet-pet, not 1 animal is the same in my opinion. All that to say, I’m willing to adapt to anything/everything your pet may need while you’re away & hope to hear from you soon!
“We’re so thankful for the care our dogs received. They were happy, safe, and clearly well taken care of while we were gone. Communication was great, and we appreciated the updates. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Angelo again.”
“We are so happy with how Maci cared for our pets. We don’t get many chances to go out of town due to our German shepherd having severe separation anxiety. She took the time to meet them and ask questions and before staying in our home. For the first time my anxious dog was calm when we were leaving, he even seemed a bit happy. His whole demeanor was at ease which made our trip more enjoyable knowing our pets were in good hands.”
About: I've worked with dogs for over 10 years now. I've worked as a dog groomer for petco as well for 1 year as well. Dealing with furry friends of all sizes, breeds, and personality. No dog is too big or too small to be handled in a professional and proper manner. As well as being a dog owner to a husky for over 10 years I pride myself on being able to handle any pup no matter what is required. I have groomed and bathed and dogsat irish wolfhounds all the way to teacup pomeranians. People tend to say that I have a great connection with animals and a very well corresponding behavior when interacting. I've spent lots of time developing my body language and reading skills in order to understand what a dog needs and how we can best help them. I can care for your pet throughout the entire week if needed. My schedule fits your schedule, whatever you need I will make it work. I do not offer in my own home. Only client residency. I can show up as early in the morning or as late night as you need me too.
“Miley has a very calm and warm attitude towards pets which put both of our dogs at ease very quickly. She is punctual, accommodating, and responsive to requests. My wife and I felt completely at ease with Miley in charge of the house and our pets. A great sitter whom we would book again without hesitation.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very little. I’ve always had dogs in my household. I currently have 3 right now and although it’s a lot of work, I want a 4th! I worked with pup walks for a while and also volunteer at the Dublin animal shelter so I am very experienced with all sizes of dogs. A few of my friends have cats and they are absolutely amazing and very easy to handle. I am comfortable walking, bathing, feeding, and sitting your fur baby! I currently work part time in Livermore so I’m looking for something else to just keep be a little bit more busy during the week/weekends. I’ll play with your fur baby in the yard or home, take them for a walk- whichever you prefer. Feed them and give them water, let them relax or crate them - whichever you prefer.

“Graciela did a wonderful job house sitting and watching our two dogs! We highly suggest her and will continue to use her for upcoming out of town trips! She even provided photos of our dogs during her stay!”
About: I have experience with all kinds of breeds, ages, and sizes. I understand every animal is unique along with their needs, and I’m more than happy and willing to do whatever it might be to keep your fur baby happy and safe while in my care. I have open availability, so whenever I’m needed I’ll be there. I don’t work anywhere else or have kids, and I just have one dog of my own. Safety is my number one priority whether it comes to your animal or home. When it comes to my care I want you to be as stress free as possible.
“Max was amazing with photo updates and text messages throughout our 5 day away vacation. We could tell our dog and cat were calm and happy due to his attentive care. He was prompt in arriving which we appreciated. We would highly recommend his services and have already booked him for our next away trip!”
“Kayla was for a week our in-home cat sitter and she was pure magic. She is the cat-sitter equivalent of Mary Poppins—truly beyond compare. As anxious pet parents of needy cats , we were looking for someone who could handle specific routines and provide constant, loving care. Kayla exceeded every expectation. • Exceptional Cat Care: She treated our cats like her very own, building a wonderful relationship with them and ensuring they were happy and stress-free. She followed all of our detailed instructions perfectly, managing our cats' needs. • Above and Beyond: Kayla didn't just meet our expectations; she went above and beyond. Not only did she care for the cats, but she also took immaculate care of our home, leaving it as neat and tidy as when we left. • Peace of Mind: She was a pro at managing our pet-parent anxiety, providing timely updates and clearly demonstrating her dedication. We can't recommend Kayla enough. If you are looking for a trustworthy and absolutely amazing sitter who will treat your pets and your home with the utmost respect, look no further. We will absolutely be booking her again!”
About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most I’m completely free on the weekend as well as Monday and Tuesday. Also I have plenty of time on Thursday as a half day. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your pet best
“Kaila is took amazing care of our pets and our home! Kaila was attentive to our animals’ needs, gave lots of updates and pictures, and was very communicative during her stay. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a new sitter!”
“Ariel gave amazing care to our elderly dog who needs medications and can get quite lonely. She went above and beyond to give her cuddles and love so that she didn’t feel alone while we were gone. We will definitely be using Ariel again 💗”
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember, I have experience with puppy’s, kittens, senior pets and I enjoy being with them I work part-time night shifts and attend school to become a Veterinary Technician, so my schedule varies slightly. I keep my availability updated and am happy to accommodate early mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and many overnight pet care requests whenever possible. Please reach out if you have specific scheduling needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where every pet is treated like family.

I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through dependable communication, compassion, and reliable care.

Book Jazmin for your pet sitting needs! We booked Jazmin for overnight pet sitting in our home and had a great experience from our meet and greet and our vacation. She gave our shy little guy so much love and treated him like her own. She was very patient with our dog and followed all of our instructions. Jazmin is so great with animals. She was very responsible and kept us updated throughout her stay. We returned to our home and it was exactly how we had left it! Thank you for watching our fur baby. We will definitely be booking again in the future. So glad we found someone so great we can trust to watch our dog and home! Thank you 🙂
Maci is a wonderful and caring petsitter. She took care of our two dogs and cats overnight for several days. They were loved and given lots of attention, playtime, and treats. She kept our home so tidy and sent regular updates, with pictures, without being asked. I highly recommend Maci and hope she will come back again!
Sarah is truly the best! She is so kind and sweet. Our dogs absolutely loved her! We could tell how happy they were with her. She took such amazing care of our pups. She sent updates and pictures. Our minds were at ease knowing they were in great hands. We would definitely love for her to take care of our pups again.
I had an amazing experience with Kayla!! She was incredibly attentive with my pets and made sure they were comfortable, happy, and well cared for the entire time. Her communication was excellent—she kept me updated regularly and sent plenty of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I was also impressed to come home to a house that was even cleaner than I left it. Truly outstanding service. Highly recommend!

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 Carbona 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 Carbona 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.
Tip: 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 Carbona 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 , 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 .
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 .
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.
