“Sami is the best caretaker on Rover. She did multiple drop-ins for me to take care of my two cats. Followed feeding/cleaning instructions perfectly and made sure to take lots of photos. Communication was on-point and I felt very comfortable having her. Will hire again for the next trip for sure!”
“Jeff is a fantastic pet sitter! We have two timid kitties and he was so patient with them both. One kitty warmed up to him immediately & our other cat kept hiding in the yard, but he took the time to wait & wait, until our kitty was less scared and he got him to come in. He sent multiple pictures to us of both cats everyday & gave a detailed account of how they were doing. He even re-potted a wilting plant for me! We were so pleased with all of his efforts & the kindness & concern he showed our kitties. I would recommend him highly!!!”
“Jennifer took care of my special needs cat and my 3 other cats. She was there morning and night and gave medicine to the diabetic cat I have. I shall be using her again in the near future.”
About: Hi! My name is Maimu. When I lived in Japan, I always had dogs and cats as pets, so caring for them feels very natural to me. I provide calm, attentive care and follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, fresh water, playtime, walks, and regular potty breaks. I’ll keep your home tidy and communicate clearly, with photo updates so you feel at ease while you’re away. My availability for walks is currently mainly: * Morning: 6:30 AM–8:00 AM * Evening: 5:00 PM–7:00 PM On some days, I may also be available during the day—please send me a message and I’ll let you know my availability. My schedule can vary depending on childcare, so please contact me in advance to confirm dates and times. Safety is my top priority, and I always supervise interactions and follow your instructions carefully. I can also run with your dog, so jogs/runs are very welcome! I know it can be stressful to trust someone else with a beloved dog or cat—they’re family. I take time to build trust with both you and your pet, and I’ll do my very best to provide thoughtful, individualized care. Pet care works well with my weekly routine because I organize my schedule around visits and walks. I’m currently available from 6:30–8:00 AM and 3:30–7:00 PM, and I always do my best to reply promptly. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow your instructions and your pet’s routine, and I keep doors and gates secure. I always use a leash outdoors unless you tell me otherwise, avoid risky situations, and monitor body language for stress. In your home, I keep the space clean and tidy, refresh food and water, and send photo updates. If anything seems unusual, I contact you right away.
“Aileen has cared for our Maple on multiple’s occasions. Maple has stranger anxiety but loves Aileen which is a testament to how wonderful she is and we are grateful to have found her!”
“Elaine was AMAZING! My cat is super shy, but she was persistent and got him to come out of his hiding place. She was super communicative so that I knew exactly how everything was going. Would strongly recommend her for your cat sitting needs.”
“Always a delight to have Donny taking care of our cats! We get great updates, our cats get time with one of their favorite people, it's a joy to have such dependable care available!”
“Lauren took care of Dakota by dropping in 3 times a day for an hour each time. I cannot recommend her enough. Dakota easily bonded with her and seemed to just know she was a good human! Lauren arrived promptly and sent me pictures throughout the day. Texting me with updates as requested. She’s awesome! I will definitely be booking her again in the future! :)”
About: I’ve been a dog groomer for the past five years, but recently left my 9-5 to stay at home with my two year old son. I’ve always worked with animals and wouldn’t have it any other way. Recent SAHM looking for some extra money for the household. My schedule is wide open morning to evening all week long including weekends and holidays. I always respect a pet’s boundaries and always let them do the approaching. I will follow any and all owner’s instructions along with use my own knowledge and experience to ensure all pets are always comfortable, happy, and safe.
About: Hi there! I grew up with animals and have been around them my entire life. My Grammy was part of the Golden Retriever Club of LA, a dog trainer, and a breeder. I assisted her many times growing up whenever she had a litter of puppies. I was even able to experience being in the operation room during one of the births to support the puppies when they were born. Animals have been a big part of my life and they have created so many beautiful memories for me to cherish! Currently, I have availability off and on throughout most days. I am a graduate student, so my schedule can change. Please refer to my calendar or ask me before booking! I have lots of experience caring for other's pets and family's pets as well over the years. I am always mindful when going into people's homes and often try to find small ways to leave it looking better than when I arrived.
“This is the first time I’ve used Rover and I will definitely use them again! I have two labs and they are my life!!! Christina came over and treated them like her own and even had them perform for some treats!!! At the meet and greet she paid attention to them and didn’t mind a lot of lab kisses! The girls loved her. Thank you Christina and I’ll definitely be using you again…”
“Andrea was amazing! I hope to continue booking her for our cats. She went beyond in every sense: she communicated with us to troubleshoot challenges, changes or kittens refusing food, as well as communicated timings of things and provided super informative rover cards with photos. I absolutely loved working with her for our trips and our cats are all doing great upon return! Everything in the house looked great too. Highly recommend :)”
“Daylin is punctual, communicative, and does an amazing job taking care of our dog Boba! (Boba can be a little apprehensive, and Daylin was very patient and sweet towards her.) She also constantly updated us on Boba's well-being. We highly recommend Daylin for your pet sitting needs!”
“Shannon went above and beyond in caring for our two cats! I appreciated her for jumping in for our sort of last minute request and doing such a great job. She communicates well, asks great questions — and her updates and pictures gave us peace of mind while we were out of town. She also got the cats to warm up to her so quickly so huge plus. Highly recommend”
“So sweet and wonderful to work with! She communicated clearly the whole time, my dogs absolutely loved her, and she took great care of my home while I was away. I felt totally at ease knowing everything was in good hands. Highly recommend and would totally book again.”

Amazing sitter. Hired for drop ins and I couldn’t have asked for a better person. Lyra has just done a big move and lots of changes so she was terrified of Kaydin at first and then Kaydin worked her magic, making Lyra feel sooooo comfortable almost immediately. By visit #3 she was confident with Kaydin and by day last day of drop ins, Kaydin was Lyra’s bestie. Super communicative, super punctual, I am overbearing and a worrywart af but I had peace of mind by day 2 because I knew my baby was totally cool with her. Call Kaydin Dennis Haysbert the way my dog was in good hands. 12/10.

Absolutely the best cat sitter who has watched our cat numerous times! From the very first day, Ivy was professional, incredibly organized, caring and communicative. We received wonderful daily updates and pictures that showed our cat was completely relaxed and happy. It gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our home was left completely clean and tidy, and our fur baby was perfectly cared for. We will absolutely be booking Ivy again and highly recommend her services to any pet parent!
Definitely first choice, glad i went with her! Book this beautiful young lady people you won’t regret it i promise. We received daily updates and pictures(she even got our very scary kitty who’s by the way never been a people person…to pet her) a miracle in my eyes lol so shout out to her. I’ll definitely be booking again !
She did a wonderful job making sure my cats were comfortable, happy, and fed every day while I was away for a week. She communicated well and was attentive to all the needs of my special-needs cat and my kittens. I felt confident knowing they were in caring and capable hands!
Madison was fantastic with our dog! We hired her last minute before leaving for a week long trip. She put our minds at the meet and greet with her mother. She came by twice a day to walk LT, feed him, make sure he had fresh water, and give him the attention he needed while we were away. Madison was dependable, communicative, and clearly cared about LT's well being. It was a relief knowing he was looked after by someone we could trust. We came home to a happy, healthy dog, and that's the best review we can give. We wouldn't hesitate to book Madison again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.
Ji Hae was wonderful with our dogs. She came to meet them before we left town. She fed both and medicated our Australian Shepherd/Husky mix. Ji Hae walked both dogs and made sure they had plenty of water. She kept us updated with photos and left the house neat. I’m confident in recommending Ji Hae’s services.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Carson on Rover is $28.32 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 20,232 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Carson. 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 Carson 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 Carson. On Rover:
- 89% 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 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.
