About: Over my lifetime I have had small medium and large dogs. I have also had my share of cats. I am experienced with senior dogs and giving any type of medication if needed. I am retired and I recently lost my 10-year-old French bulldog (Remi). I have found that I now have a lot of time on my hands as he was my main focus. I am available weekdays and weekends. I am available to care for your pets in your home keeping them safe and stress-free. I will give them love and attention and give you regular updates so your time away from them will be as stress-free as possible.
“Sarah took excellent care of my dog. She gave us so much peace of mind on our trip and it was honestly like we never left. Our dog obviously had a wonderful few days of drop in care with Sarah and we will be contacting her again in the future for more care. Thank you, Sarah!”
About: I’m good with dogs. I’m also very patient and interactive with them. No longer have my own but I’ll treat your doggie like my own. I’m am currently working nights during the week so I have time in the morning for some walks or some hikes. Weekends schedule always changes. Previously I’ve dog sat and at the same time house sat while clients were out of town. I’m very cautious and trustworthy as well very vigilant of my surroundings.
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover, big, small, young and old. I’ve rescued several dogs so I know how uniquely special all dogs are. Looking to stay active incorporating my two favorite things, dogs and outdoors. I am newly retired and looking for activities to keep me sharp, mind, body and soul. I have loved dogs my whole life and most love me too. I have a secure backyard, a 12 yr old Maltese named Roscoe. Our days are pretty chill with walks to the park and car rides. If I stay in your home, just let me know what your expectations are and any routines you’d like me to follow.
About: 35 plus years of basic and advanced level dog training and handling. Pet CPR and first aid proficient. I treat all my clients like they are my own family. I'm currently retired and am available full time, seven days a week. I'm available 6 am to 6 pm for training and for walking am more flexible. I have two sweet dogs to keep your furry friends company. We take long walks in the park that is 50 feet from my front door. I will keep your furry babies stimulated with frequent potty breaks and long walks.
“Cynthia was great!!! We were nervous about leaving our rescue dog for the first time. She was very responsive to messages and at the meet and greet asked good questions and answered any questions we had. She went above and beyond each day for both our dog and cat! She is truly one of the best pet sitters ever!”
About: I’ve personally have had pets in the past, along with sitting friends, family and neighbors animals. I’ve also worked at PetSmart for a year, so I’m very comfortable and confident around different animals. Im an online student and have open availability to give personal attention to a furry friend. I’m open to last minute requests and over night stays. I live in a welcoming neighborhood that’s great for walks. My backyard is the perfect size for a pet to run around in with a 5 foot high fence.
“Tai did an amazing job watching my kitties!! She happens to be sisters with my prior Rover sitter, so it was a seamless transition :) tai was punctual, paid excellent attention to my babies and was very respectful of my space. I highly recommend her and will likely book again!”
“Shannon is the ultimate professional. Shows up on time with a lovely energy. My two kitties welcomed her right away. She asks all the right questions pertaining to the pets care. I felt comfortable with her caring for my kitties while I was out of town. Thank you Shannon!”
About: I am punctual and on-time if not early. I will always maintain updates. I have raised one litter, and have the Mother and one of the pups from the litter. I grew up raising cats and dogs. I can administer medication. I am an early bird with my own fur babies, so my availability is wide open from as early as 6am. I work as an independent dispatch technician with a flexible schedule. Bags are always in hand for business. We avoid other dogs unless we already know them. Cats are always on the attention list also. treats for all if permitted. Diets always adhered to.
About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my whole life from Huskies and German Shepherds to Goldens, Great Pyrenees, and my current Chow (the sweetest girl ever!). I understand different temperaments, training needs, and energy levels, and I always match their vibe whether it’s a long walk by the beach or a cozy nap at home. Every pet I watch gets the same love and care I give my own. Pet care is naturally part of my daily life — I start and end every day with walks, playtime, and cuddles with my own dog. I run my own business and have a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your pets the attention and consistency they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, midday visits, or overnight care, I make sure each pet feels loved and cared for like they’re my own. Safety and comfort always come first. I have a fully fenced backyard where pets can play freely and safely, and I live just a block from the beach perfect for daily walks, fresh air, and happy tails. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I make sure they feel secure, loved, and part of the family. I keep routines consistent, double check gates and leashes, and give every pet the same care and attention I give my own.
“Daniella did a fantastic job with our puppy during her drop in visits! She kept us in the loop with cute pictures and updates. Followed all instructions and went above and beyond to work on training and brushing. Would highly recommend!”
About: I’m the sitter for you if you want someone who actually LOVES what they do. From the moment I meet your furry friend to the second we part, I take care of them as my own and prioritize their comfort and fun time! Your baby will be safe, happy, and cared for with me, and I have loyal clients who assure the same. Since mine passed away, I’ve taken care of strays, but I still love having those lovely personalities panting around. That’s why I do this; I believe in great dog-sitting care. I am punctual with meal times, love to run and play, clean up, and I love to cuddle/bond with my new little friends. I go above and beyond for my pets and their owners, and I like to get to know them as my own. I welcome new and returning clients and have earned their loyalty with consistency and dedication to my work. Hope to have you join the pack soon! Whenever I have a day off that I don’t have plans on I head over to the Ventura Animal Shelter to donate some of my time and attention to lovely animals. I would love to be able to spend time with dogs since at my current stage in life can’t afford one. ❤️ When taking care of pets in the homes of others, a lot of trust goes into place. I’d be glad to take on that trust.
About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life for over 12 years. I’ve raised my own Norfolk Terrier from a young age into his senior years, which has given me experience across every stage of a dog’s life. We’ve always loved going on walks together—when he was younger, I would take him to new neighborhoods and the beach for fun and stimulation. Now that he’s older, I’ve taken on a more attentive caregiving role. I manage his daily medications, keep up with frequent vet visits, and adjust his routine to match his needs, including shorter, slower walks around our neighborhood. Caring for him has taught me patience, awareness, and how to prioritize a dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness. I’ve also had experience with high-energy dogs. During college, I lived with a 1-year-old Australian Shepherd, where I regularly helped with walks and playtime—lots of tug-of-war, fetch, and keeping up with his energy. It gave me a great balance of experience with both calm senior dogs and active, playful ones. Whether your dog needs a relaxed walk, extra patience, or lots of play and energy, I’m confident in adapting to their personality and making sure they feel safe, loved, and excited every time we’re together. I currently work weekdays during the day at a behavioral clinic, but I am available for dog walking and pet care services after 4:00 PM on weekdays. I also have full availability on weekends and can accommodate dog walking, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the day. I’m happy to be flexible within those timeframes to best meet your pet’s needs and routine. I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and in-home pet sitting services, which means I care for pets in the comfort and safety of their own environment. I do not provide boarding in my own home due to my own dog’s health needs. When caring for your pet, I prioritize safety, routine, and clear communication. I closely follow all owner instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, and any specific care requirements. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I make sure their routine is maintained as closely as possible. During walks, I always use a leash and carry waste bags at all times to ensure cleanliness and responsible care. I stay attentive to surroundings to keep your dog safe and comfortable throughout the walk. Above all, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and affection—making sure they feel secure, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I’m committed to building trust with both pets and owners through reliable and respectful care.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Channel Islands Beach
Sam originally agreed to watch our dogs before we unexpectedly had to move. When we found out we had to move, there were a lot of last minute scheduling changes that she worked through with me and was so understanding. She is so good with our dogs and even brought packages in for me when they arrived before I made it home. She goes above and beyond and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter or walker!
Tai was absolutely amazing with my cats and super sweet. She played so much with my high energy kitty and chilled with my antisocial girl. She sent lots of photos and updates, and went above and beyond to cover for me an extra day when I couldn’t make it home on time. Would recommend her to anyone.
Cynthia was great!!! We were nervous about leaving our rescue dog for the first time. She was very responsive to messages and at the meet and greet asked good questions and answered any questions we had. She went above and beyond each day for both our dog and cat! She is truly one of the best pet sitters ever!
Nykie was incredibly reliable, communicative, and thoughtful the entire visits. I received frequent updates, photos that showed just how comfortable, happy, and well-loved my puppy was. I highly recommend Nykie to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets. I will absolutely be booking again!
Dianne has been an incredible help with my dog! She is consistently punctual, highly responsive, and communicates timely throughout the process. Most importantly, she brings a fantastic positive energy that my four-legged friends absolutely love. She is incredibly easy to work with, and we are so pleased to have her support. I would highly recommend Dianne to anyone looking for a reliable and caring walker!
Annie took great care of Kimiko and was willing to follow Musashi’s extensive medical routine. Kimiko can be particular with new people, so I appreciated that Annie respected her space. I could tell from the photos and updates that Kimiko was in loving hands. Thank you so much!
Sarah took excellent care of my dog. She gave us so much peace of mind on our trip and it was honestly like we never left. Our dog obviously had a wonderful few days of drop in care with Sarah and we will be contacting her again in the future for more care. Thank you, Sarah!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
