“Holly was very kind and thorough when we met and when she stopped by to feed and spend time with my cat when I was away. She is communicative and sent pictures every visit. I felt very comfortable with her and could tell my cat was comfortable with her as well. I would strongly recommend her to others to provide loving pet sitting. I’m grateful I found her to take care of my baby. Thank you holly, you rock!”

I am a freshman at CSUMB staying on campus with my vehicle, with classes Monday-Thursday. I am available on the weekends at any time in the day, and my mondays are free until 3 pm. I am available early mornings on Wednesday-Thursday, and available after dinner all nights. I am young and active, and have a love for dogs. This is something I enjoy doing, and pay very close attention to pets to ensure safety. I am very energetic, and can match your dogs energy to wear them out , and get them out of the house. At home, I have a very high energy dog and a very low energy dog, and know how to work with a wide range of dogs.

About: I have a few years experience with dog and cat care. I have heard positive feedback from many families I care for! Some things that have been said by different families that I regularly walk for... "Your favorite person is here!" "I didn't know they got this excited for walks!" "Her vet said shes very nervous, but she seems to like you!" I enjoy seeing and greeting each of the doggies with "pats and hellos" before we begin our time together so I usually show up a couple minutes early for that I am respectful of new animals that I meet and allow them to show me their comfort level. I have school aged kiddos, so im ready for all the shenanigans from the fur babies! While i do like to give a dog exercise, I also allow them to make stops cause every creature should be able to smell the flowers sometimes. I can run short distances if your buddy happens to prefer quicker paces! I can walk 2 or 3 dogs at a time I have available spots for walks on the following days (kept updated) Tuesday-Friday Please contact me to discuss times and dates Thank you for considering me to walk your pets I am available to care for pets in your home. I will follow any house rules, as well as care for your pet as my own.

About: I’m attentive and I have a really good reaction time! I’m also a kind and caring individual, I love animals a lot! I had two dogs in my family and I took care of them. With them, I was able to learn how dogs think and what their needs are! I’m taking a small break from my university right now, so I have plenty of time to take your beloved pups and take care of your cats! I’m free for majority of the time, just let me know! I had a dog named Spanky, he was my childhood dog who unfortunately passed away recently. He was apart of my family so he wasn’t just a pet to me. I had a schedule for him and he would take daily walks around the neighborhood and beach. He would also eat at certain times with good quality food to keep him moving and grooving. He lived a long and happy life!

She was very friendly and willing to help with an unexpected glitch, and to deal with the Rover steps when we needed to be gone an extra day. Will definitely try to book her again.”

About: About Me 🤍 Hi! I’m Alicia :) I’ve always been a huge animal lover and grew up around both dogs and cats. I have a Pomeranian of my own, and I’ve lived with and cared for all different kinds of dogs and cats over the years. I also have experience pet sitting, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet and their own little personality. I know every pet is different. Some dogs want to play and go on walks all day, while others just want to cuddle and hang out. The same goes for cats, some will be your best friend right away and others need a little time before they trust you. I’m very patient and always let them get comfortable with me at their own pace. I really just want them to feel safe and happy while their family is away. 🐾 I also understand that you’re trusting me with your home, not just your pet, and I take that seriously. Before getting into real estate, I worked in banking, so being responsible, trustworthy, professional, and respectful of people’s privacy has always been really important to me. I’ll treat your home with the same care and respect I would want someone to have in mine. A little about me outside of pet sitting: I’ve lived in Japan, Hawaii, Sacramento, and the Bay Area, and now I’ve settled in Monterey with my family. I love being outside, going to the beach, and taking walks around the coast, so having a pup come along with me makes it even better! At the end of the day, I really just love animals. Your pet isn’t going to feel like another “booking” to me. I want to get to know them, learn their little quirks and routine, and make sure they’re getting lots of love and attention while you’re gone. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, cared for, and in good hands. 🤍 I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets I care for. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, pet sitting, and overnight care throughout the week and weekends. I enjoy spending quality time with animals and making sure they stay on their normal routine, feel comfortable, and receive lots of love and attention while their owners are away. Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is very important to me. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully to make sure pets stay comfortable and on their normal routine. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality, needs, and behavior to ensure they feel secure and cared for. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I provide a clean, attentive, and trustworthy environment where pets are treated like family and receive plenty of affection, supervision, and patience. I also love keeping pet owners updated with photo and video updates throughout the day so you can feel reassured and connected while you’re away. I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet with someone, so communication is always a priority for me, and I’m happy to answer questions or accommodate any specific care instructions.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Castroville on Rover is $28 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $39 per visit. 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 of October 2026, there are 1,923 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Castroville. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Castroville. On Rover:

  • 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
