I work Monday through Wednesday, so I’m fully available from Thursday through Sunday during the day. While preparing for my medical residency, I spend most of my time studying at home, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and timely care. I live alone in a calm, quiet environment, making it easy to provide consistent, focused care and ensure pets feel safe and comfortable. I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and happy by following their usual routines as closely as possible.

I look forward to meeting your furry and feathered friends! I am a 37-year-old professional swing dance instructor, classical vocal coach, and piano teacher. I received my Bachelor's degree in Choral-Vocal Music Education from Bob Cole Conservatory of Music at CSULB. I studied Molecular Biology for 3 years before deciding to pursue teaching dance and music. I work freelance, so my schedule is flexible to tend to pets' needs throughout the day. I have worked in a variety of settings, including restaurants, music halls, recording studios, summer camps, dance studios, tutoring, and babysitting. I enjoy classic movies, gardening, crossword puzzles, camping, and cooking. I rely on the client to set the ground rules for their own home and pets, and adhere to those guidelines. Every pet parent has a good feel for their pet’s needs and care, and I look forward to learning about each unique pet I get to care for.

About: Hi there! I have been pet sitting for 7 years, and caring for animals is truly one of my greatest joys. Whether it's taking your dog on a long, energetic walk or patiently earning the trust of a shy kitty, I treat every pet as if they were my own. As a proud cat parent to my own furry companion, Izmir, I know exactly how important it is to leave your pets in safe, loving, and attentive hands. I’m always happy to send daily photo updates of all the playtime and snuggles so you can have total peace of mind while you're away My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to arrange walk times together with you. Most of the times I am available in the mornings between 9:30 am to 2 pm! Your dog’s safety is my top priority. I always walk in safe, dog-friendly areas and keep a close eye on your pup at all times. I believe in building trust with both pets and owners through clear communication and reliable care. My goal is to create a happy, stress-free environment where your pets feels loved and secure.
About: I grew up with dogs and have 3 of my own. I don’t think I have been without one my entire life! I’ve raised 5 dogs from puppy to senior over the last 22 years. We also have 3 kids ranging in age from 10-15 so lots of love and help around the house at all times. My husband and I both work from home so someone is around all day to pay attention, walk, feed and love your pet. My three dogs are very friendly and LOVE all furry friends. I have a fully fenced yard and lots of walking trails to exercise your pup. . I also have two crates for those that need a break in a den. I will not leave them unattended, they will have constant love and attention.
About: I've cared for several senior dogs with medical issues, such as seizures, and assisted in the recovery of a torn CCL. I also have 20+ years administering medicine that were prescribed by vets. One of my all time special skills would be the advanced training in the art of cuddling and snuggling. I am self employed which allows me great flexibility for taking care of your fur babies. I'm available week days and weekends with advanced notice. I have a medium sized crate if need be depending on individual fur baby needs. Whenever dropping in on a pet I'm very respectful of their property and follow instructions well. Whether it's my home or yours I take great care in providing comfort to your fur baby and make sure to give all the love they deserve as if they were my own.
“I cannot recommend Ani highly enough! She is an absolute gem when it comes to caring for our dogs. She is incredibly reliable, always happy to accommodate our drop-in requests, and truly goes the extra mile. Our pups adore her! She's patient, playful, and provides them with lots of love and attention. We appreciate her for letting our dogs out, refreshing their water, and showering them with treats. Our high-energy pup is especially lucky to have her as she knows just how to tire her out with endless rounds of fetch. She's more than just a dog walker; she's a trusted member of our family!”

About: Passionate about loving and caring for animals, with professional service-dog training experience and expertise handling small, large, and giant breeds, working dogs, medically complex pets, and animals requiring individualized attention. My experience ranges from Jack Russells to a medically high-maintenance Great Dane and, currently, my white German Shepherd. I also have professional dog-training experience with Brandon McMillan at Lucky Dog Ranch in Los Angeles, including service-dog training. That experience taught me the importance of understanding canine behavior, body language, consistency, structure, and adapting my approach to each individual dog. I’m comfortable with strong and energetic dogs, seniors, special-needs pets, detailed feeding routines, and dogs requiring additional attention or care. I understand how difficult it can be to find someone you genuinely trust to walk or care for your beloved pet. I treat every dog as an individual, respect the training and routines you have established, and provide the same attentive, dependable care I would want for my own. I believe dogs thrive with consistency, so I do my best to maintain the schedule and routine they’re already comfortable with. I’ll follow your preferences for walks, meals, medications, potty breaks, playtime, training, and downtime. I’m active and happy to accommodate everything from leisurely neighborhood walks to longer, more energetic outings for dogs who need extra exercise and stimulation. I also make time for play, enrichment, affection, and plenty of rest. Every dog is different, so I tailor the day around their age, energy level, personality, and individual needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. Safety and trust always come first. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I take the time to understand their normal routine, personality, training, feeding schedule, medical needs, and any behaviors or triggers I should be aware of. My professional service-dog training experience has taught me to pay close attention to canine body language and behavior, use calm and consistent handling, and create an environment where dogs feel safe and comfortable. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and maintain the routines and boundaries their dog already knows. Walks are handled responsibly, doors and gates are always checked, and pets are supervised with their safety and comfort in mind. When caring for pets in your home, I’m equally respectful of your space and privacy. My goal is simple: for you to feel completely confident that both your pet and your home are in responsible, caring hands.
About: I’ve been a dog lover and owner all my life! I have experience caring for 1 lb dogs all the way up to 120 lb dogs, and all of them are my favorite! Lots of experience with playful puppies and I also enjoy taking care of the senior pups. I love walking, jogging, and the outdoors, so if your dog loves to be outside we’ll be a great fit! If your dog is more of the indoor type, we can play there too. 😀 My schedule is very flexible so I can cater around your pet’s needs. I also have a “Dog Van” so if your pup would rather ride than walk that is an option! A lot of my dog clients love a drive-through with a pup cup! I will keep your pups safety and well-being my top priority, wether playing in your home/yard or out on walks around other dogs and neighborhood obstacles.
About: Having owned and cared for dogs throughout my entire life, I bring a wealth of experience and deep affection to pet care. My journey with dogs began in childhood and has continued into adulthood, encompassing a variety of breeds and temperaments. This lifelong bond has equipped me with a profound understanding of canine behavior, health, and needs. In addition to my personal experience as a dog owner, I have also provided dog sitting services for numerous clients. This role has allowed me to extend my expertise to other pet owners, ensuring that their dogs receive the same level of care and attention I provide to my own. From daily exercise and nutritious feeding to administering medications and offering companionship, I am dedicated to maintaining each dog's routine and well-being. I work from home so your dogs will have great care! I have a lot of time to spend on walks and caring for your pets. I have a 7 year old chihuahua named Louie and a 12 year old cat, Bella. Louie loves playing with other dogs and our backyard is also fenced.
“Susannah was absolutely amazing taking care of our 3 cats! She went above and beyond even grooming them each day. We would highly recommend her to anyone and will be using Susannah again in the near future to watch our little guys!!!”

About: I am an active pet sitter with a dog of my own who loves to play! We have a house with 2 acres fenced where the dogs can run around and play. I have worked with all kinds of dogs including elderly, dogs recovering from medical problems and dogs with anxiety. I am very flexible I just ask that your dog can get along with mine! I am very active so if your dog needs a good workout I would love a running buddy! I currently work from home which leaves me with very flexible schedule. I am currently working remote so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to play with your pups! I am also very active and happy to go for walks or runs.

This was our third time hiring Silvana to pet sit for us over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier with the way she takes care of our cat and pet ducks. She clearly follows all care directions, is very gentle and kind to our pets, and is dependable with great communication. Silvana consistently goes above and beyond. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone!

This is the second time we booked with Silvana and we were very happy with her care! She was flexible with the schedule due to unexpected snow, which we very much appreciated. She clearly followed my instructions and was very loving and gentle with our cat and birds. Silvana goes above and beyond! We will absolutely hire her again!

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Carnation is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 and $34 per visit. On Rover, 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 November 2026, there are 10,512 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Carnation. 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.
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 Carnation 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!
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.
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Carnation with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

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.
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.
