“Christine is amazing! She is punctual, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. She was able to accommodate my last-minute request while I was in town visiting family and unexpectedly needed someone to care for my dog. I’m always nervous about leaving my dogs with someone new, but Christine immediately put my mind at ease. It was clear that she genuinely cared for my dog and treated him like one of her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Dean was great and made sure Ember was taken care of. He even cleaned up some messes Ember made which I appreciate a lot. Ember acted like she she already knew him and loved having him around.”
“Crimzen treats my dogs with kindness and respect. She is punctual, communicates well, and provides updates on how the girls are doing during their time the her. So far, so good!”
“Hannah took great care of our Keanu. She was very loving with him and petted him as many times as he wanted. She did great sending us pics and videos of Keanu and letting us know about how he was doing. Would definitely recommend her.”
“We asked Alexis to come over for four consecutive days to feed, check on everything, and spend a little time with our kitty while we were away. She did an excellent job and went above and beyond. We are very satisfied with Alexis. Our cat is very sociable with strangers, so we knew that she would greet her and seek attention. She played with her, fed her, and even sent plenty of pictures. Everything was in order upon our return home and we know our cat was taken care of. Again, highly recommend!”
About: I’ve owned/sitted many dogs from all ages, sizes, species, and backgrounds for over 10 years. After many years i have never met a dog I couldn’t handle. I currently work part-time and only work 4-5 hours 3-4 times a week, so i have plenty of time to walk, play, or for sitting. In my current job I am trusted with gate codes and have never had an issue with clients. I also currently own 3 large dogs and have no issues being able to put dogs in there kennels if needed.
About: While I've never been paid to pet sit, I've checked in on my neighbor's dogs upon request, feeding them and taking them outside when necessary. It's impossible to estimate just how long I've cared for animals. While I'm on the hunt for a full or part time job over the summer, my availability will be flexible. As of now, I will be available at any time on any day. I've been around all sorts of animals in my life, currently living with my family's two boy dogs, Tucker and Charlie. With them, I've become familiar with using crates, feeding schedules, playtime, and of course, cuddles.
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs through family and friends, including puppies only a few months old, adult dogs, and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with walks, potty breaks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving pets extra patience and attention based on their needs. I also have experience providing oral and rectal medications when needed. I deeply care for all dogs and always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved during my visits. I’m a nursing student with a flexible schedule, and pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I enjoy spending my free time with animals and can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. I like having a routine, so I make sure pets stay on their normal schedule as much as possible. I care for every pet like they are my own. In my home or a client’s home, I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and supervised. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding routines, medication needs, crate instructions, and any house rules. I also like to send updates and pictures so owners feel comfortable knowing their pets are being cared for.
“Britney is fantastic with my senior pup (14.5yrs old) who has special needs. She expresses his bladder, changes his doggy diaper and gives him treats, water and love. She’s so great with him that I asked her to board him when I’ve gone out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Desiree was absolutely wonderful with our four furr babies. She went above and beyond with our cats, especially our youngest cat Snowy is super skittish when it comes with new people. She got Snow to purr ^^ Along with our medical cat, Asher, and our grumpy cat, absolutely adore her. Highly recommend Desiree!!! I didn't mention my other two cats, because they don't count lolz”
About: I’ve been around dogs since i was a kid and have taken care of friends dogs while they’re out on vacation and they leave happy each time Im currently working full time but can do drop in visits and dog day car in the mornings before noon. Im available for any of your dogs needs full time Thursday and Friday’s. I live in a 1 bedroom town home with a small fenced yard, water and shade will always be provided when pups are outside. They are allowed to roam freely as long as they’re potty trained and will have as many walks and potty breaks as needed.
About: I’ve taken care of many pets, I’ve pet volunteered at the SAHS for about 6 months, and I’ve done pet sitting for my friends and family and neighbors for about a year or longer and I am currently working at Barkaritaville pet Resort! I always make sure that your pet(s) is happy and content while providing all the proper care for your pet(s) My availability will vary due to my job, I work 4 days a week most weeks from 7am - 6:30 pm. So on those days I unfortunately don’t have any availability, on my off days I will be happy do walk your dog or stop by for a drop in! I have 3 dogs in my own home, as soon as I wake up I make sure that they are fed and that they have gone outside. For my clients I arrive early, or at a set time they would like me to arrive, make sure that they have gone potty (I stand off to the side and watch if not distracting for the pet) and then I prepare their food and make sure that they eat before I leave. I do sometimes walk them if requested.
“Charisma took such great care of my pets, and I can tell they were super comfortable around her since they all slept near her! My boys are pretty high energy and she got them to calm down. She also took some very cute pics!”
About: My dog of 15 years recently passed away last year and I miss getting to care for him, Rover will be my way of giving back! I work full time but I’m off every weekend and can care for your pets when you’re busy! I also can drop in some mornings during the weekday or evenings!

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 Castroville 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.
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 Castroville 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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
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 Castroville 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 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.
