“Nicoletta did such a fantastic job caring for our kitties while we were away. She sent lots of updates and photos every day and I could tell that she genuinely cared about our cats. I would absolutely hire Nicoletta again!”

“Had a great experience with Deborah dropping in to check on my cat and administer medication. She took the time to do a meet a greet before the visit. She’s very thorough and very responsive. She also sent me pictures of my Gizmo. I look forward to booking her again.”

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats (and other animals) since I was a kid. A proud godmother of a Yorkshire Terrier, a sweet gentleman. Got on Rover during college, and I absolutely loved it. My situation makes it hard to raise my own pets, so I take the chance to be around them whenever I could. I work remotely, which gives me the flexibility and time to provide attentive care for animals, including long walks and companionship. This allows me to be consistently present and available while pet sitting. I’m not currently able to host pets in my own space, but I take the time to get familiar with each new environment so I can provide the best possible care. I make communication with owners a priority, especially when learning the details of a new home or routine.

About: Funny enough, I didn’t grow up as a dog person! I was born and raised in San Francisco and spent most of my life living in an apartment where pets weren’t allowed. I actually grew up being afraid of dogs—I still remember running away from a tiny poodle as a kid! That all started to change when my friends began getting fur babies of their own. The more time I spent around their dogs, the more I realized how sweet, loving, and full of personality they were. Slowly, that fear disappeared and turned into a genuine love for dogs. Before I knew it, I was getting attached to every pup I met! When my brother and sister-in-law got their Corgi in 2022, I absolutely fell in love with him. I honestly lost count of how many times I visited them just to see their pup! I was always happy to offer to babysit whenever they were away, which gave me more hands-on experience caring for a dog on my own. Over the past 5 years, I’ve helped care for and dogsit for family and friends, and eventually, I knew I wanted a fur baby of my own. I’m now a proud dog mom to a Samoyed who I’ve raised since he was just 9 weeks old. He’s a little over 1.5 years old now, and raising him from such a young age has taught me so much about puppy care, routines, feeding, walks, playtime, training, patience, and handling all that puppy energy! My boyfriend also has a Boston Terrier, so our household is currently home to two very different pups—my big, fluffy Samoyed and his much smaller Boston Terrier. Living with and caring for both of them every day has given me experience managing multiple dogs with different personalities, sizes, energy levels, and needs. It has also taught me that every dog is different, and getting to know their individual quirks and personalities is one of my favorite parts of being around them. Because I know firsthand what it’s like to go from being unfamiliar with dogs to completely falling in love with them, I have a lot of patience and respect for each dog’s individual personality and comfort level. I also know how much trust it takes to leave your fur baby in someone else’s care. My goal is simple: to give your pup the same love, attention, patience, and care that I would want someone to give my own. ❤️ I work a Monday–Friday desk job and usually work remotely from home, so I’m able to be around throughout the day to give your fur baby plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. My weekends are also free, which gives me even more flexibility for daycare and boarding. I occasionally need to go into the office for meetings or special projects. On those days, I typically leave early around 5:30 AM and am back home by about 2:30 PM (or earlier). My flexible schedule allows me to make pet care a natural part of my daily routine and give your fur baby plenty of love, attention, and company while they’re staying with me. Since I have two pups of our own, walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and lots of doggy attention are already a regular part of my daily routine! 🐾 I live in a quiet townhome community in Hercules, just a few minutes’ walk from beautiful Refugio Valley Park—perfect for walks, fresh air, and some extra sniffing time! My home is a two-story townhome with a fenced backyard, giving the pups a secure outdoor space for potty breaks and supervised playtime. I have two house-trained fur babies, a Samoyed and a Boston Terrier, so my home is already very dog-friendly. I also understand that every pup has their own personality and comfort level. There are baby gates throughout the house to section off different areas when needed, whether that means giving energetic pups their own space to play or providing a quieter area for those who would rather relax and lounge on the couch. Speaking of couches—pups are welcome! There are two couches with plenty of room for anyone who wants to curl up, get comfy, and make themselves at home. There are also crates in a variety of sizes, toys, and other pet supplies available when needed. For additional safety and peace of mind, my home is equipped with cameras to keep an extra eye on the pups and my home environment when needed. Safety and comfort are very important, and I’m happy to follow your pup’s normal routine, feeding schedule, crate preferences, and any specific care instructions you provide. My home is also within walking distance of Hercules Pet Hospital, which gives me additional peace of mind should veterinary care ever be needed. Ultimately, I want your pup to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re here—and for you to feel confident knowing they’re being cared for like one of my own. ❤️

About: I've been around animals my whole life. Growing up my mom worked in a pet store and I use to help her out after school. I have had dog in my home my whole live from little puppies to older pups. I love to nestly up on a couch and knitt with a furry friend by my side. I am currently working part time so I have plenty of free time for fun pet care. I really enjoying the flexible work schedule and getting to spend my time with animals. While in the client's home I will spend time with the family pet, playing , cuddles and proving care. If I have my primary job that day I will let the animal do their business in the morning, make sure they have food and water. I will return in the afternoon for play time and to support their need.
About: I’ve owned pets all my life. I treat my pets as family members and would love to care for yours the same way while you are away from home. My goal is for you to leave your pets behind knowing they will be well taken care of. I’m currently a stay at home mom of a baby and 2 boxers. I’m constantly playing with my dogs and I keep them occupied all day (boxer energy is no joke) I have a decent sized back yard where your pet can play safe and freely, I also have a special indoor area where your pet can play and rest. If your dog loves to play I own 2 young energetic boxers who love to make new friends and will make sure your dog is exhausted by the end of the day. However, if your dog is older and/or just prefers a quiet place I can certainly accommodate.

About: I started as a dog handler in 2016 and from there, I completely fell in love with caring for animals. While working as a handler, I had the amazing opportunity to learn dog behavior so doggy language is my second language! I have experience in helping train dogs, I’ve trained my own dog who knows many tricks and basic commands. Additionally, I have experience working with more shy and skiddish pups so I bring a more attentive, and calm demeanor to those who need it. I’ve worked with small dogs, medium dogs and big dogs. I am also comfortable administering medications. I am currently accepting clients who need daily drop in care and evening walks. I do have my 8 month old who will attend with me but he will stay in his car seat as he’s very content doing so. He would not attend evening walks if that is a service you are interested in. Whether you need your pet crated, put in a secure room or left with a couple extra treats, I’d be happy to oblige by whatever you require for the safety and comfortability for your pet.

About: I have taken care of pets for over 10 years around the world! Neighbors, friends, families and acquaintances have all trusted me with the livelihoods of their loved ones. I can administer medication, go on as many walks as needed, drive or walk to the dog park or just cuddle on the sofa if you pet loves that too! I work as a school teacher and am an online grad student but am able to come and go as I please so my schedule is quite flexible! I am very mindful of your pets care, safety and security while they are in my trust. I can crate your pet, calm them down and care for them as per your instruction.
About: I'm super reliable, very patient and attentive when left in care of your fur babies I like to chill and lounge on the couch with them or go on long walks or spend time at the park P.s will follow special instructions if there is any needed to follow :)) For days that I have available for pet sittings I like to know if they will have a schedule to follow or not so I usually go by that but I have most days off with just gardening to do or stuff to do around the house/lounging or hiking/ running errands. I make sure to keep any toys, food or medication nearby. I’m comfortable caring for pets that may need more attention than others or that may be more independent.
About: I’m Xaniah, nice to meet you! My love for animals transcends every species, size, and personality :) Having so much knowledge from my life shared with animals, I was always drastically ahead of my peers when it comes to pet care. I’m committed to caring for each fur baby as if it was my own. I know each pet has their own little personality and I always try my best adapting to each one. New clients, let’s schedule a meet & greet before accepting any booking! I prefer learning about their needs face to face so you and your pup can become acquainted with me. If you have any questions, feel free to ask :) Thank you for reading and I hope to meet you and your fur baby soon! Only working Sat-Mon, and can take any days off if needed. Low maintenance WFH job during the week so I can give my attention to your pets! Whether your pet is in my home or yours, you can trust that safety is my highest priority and neither your fur baby or your home will be in jeopardy! I treat every animal and home as if it was my own, and leaving both cleaner than I found them. No pet, furniture, or Neiman Marcus vase shall be harmed in my presence :)
About: We will go on walks around my neighborhood or yours, a walking trail that is close to my home and any dog-friendly parks. I enjoy getting out with the animals I care for to get some fresh air, exercise and have some fun! Whether it be throwing their favorite ball, frisbee or other toy for them to play catch, we will have a blast! I love interacting with my client's fur babies to give them the undivided attention and care they deserve. I also enjoy snuggles with them on the couch. I work remotely 2-3 days a week so i am available to spend the day with your dog in those days. 2-3 days a week I am in the office 4-5 hours a day in SF. I will keep the dog in a safe gated area and will never leave them unattended or off of a leash when i have them out. I love to cuddle, kiss and pet your animal and play catch.
“Riley did a great job with all three of our senior dogs. She did two drop-in visits, gave them their vitamins/medications, fed them, and let them out. She was punctual and communicated very well. We really appreciate the job she did with our babies and they really seemed to like her.”

“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!”

About: I have cared for pets my entire life. My family had dogs and I owned a horse that I cared for and paid for since I was 13 until I left home for college. St that point I gave her to a person that would take care of her as I would. Since that time I have adopted cats as I lived in homes that did not allow dogs . I had to get my dog time in caring for friends and neighbors dogs whenever I could I’m currently working but have a flexible schedule. Caring for or playing with your pet will be my pleasure and your gift to me. I love all dogs and cats but will admit I miss having a dog of my own I can care for any cat in my home. I would prefer to sit for dogs in their own environment. I will care for your friends with just as much love and attention as you yourself would

Adam helped us out last minute when our regular petsitter ended up with a health emergency. Adam responded right away, agreed to meet at the last minute to go over the instructions (and was on timely for that meeting also), and he took awesome care of our 2 indoor kitties and helped feed our 4 feral cats outside. He completed all the tasks wonderfully and gave thorough updates after each visit. I highly recommend Adam for your petsitting needs!

Thank you Nicoletta for taking such good care of my Zoya and Zeus. Nicoletta is very responsible and caring and looked after my 2 kitties while I was away. She sent me great pictures and updates whenever needed. Will highly recommend her to all cat parents who need a reliable catsitter.

Samiah is amazing! She treated our cats with such love and they really enjoyed her company. Samiah went above and beyond to handle any complications that arose and communicated clearly and effectively. I felt so at ease with her watching the animals, I would definitely book her again!

Rachel Ann was a lifesaver for us when we needed last-minute care for our cat, Freya. Our cat needed two new prescriptions administered twice daily and her food preferences had also just changed. Rachel Ann was an absolute professional in caring for Freya and even adjusted the visit times to accommodate how our cat was responding. She was very loving and sent daily updates and photos. We will definitely request Rachel Ann again and we recommend her to anyone who needs routine or advanced care for their cat.

Another successful petcare week with Emma and our sweet but anxious cowdog! Sandia got into a happy routine and was no longer nervous about us leaving. She was confident when seeing us going out the door knowing Emma would be coming for their routine. All was right with world once Emma arrived for her walk and treats. A new milestone for our Sandia.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Carquinez Heights is $29 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $44 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 10,923 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Carquinez Heights. 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.

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.
