About: Hi! My name is Alexa, I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs and other animals of many personalities and ages. I recently relocated to California and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive and reliable pet care. I am happy to help with dog walking, drop-in visits, overnight care, puppy care, and providing extra patience for senior dogs or pets who may feel anxious when their owners are away. I have a 2 year old fur baby of my own, Arlo; who's taught me how important routine, exercise, and affection are for a dog’s happiness and well-being. I’m always able to adjust to your pet's needs and personality. Whether they love long walks, playtime, or simply relaxing with someone nearby. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I enjoy spending the majority of my time with animals and being active outdoors. I structure my schedule to allow plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and making sure pets get the attention they need throughout the day. I am sure to keep their routine as consistent as possible with what they’re used to at home. I follow instructions closely when it comes to feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same love, patience, and respect I would give Arlo ❤️. In a client’s home, I’m very respectful of both the pet’s environment and the home itself. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also keeping their surroundings clean and calm. I pay close attention to their behavior and energy levels to make sure they are happy and stress-free while you're away. Communication is also important to me, I like to provide updates and photos so you can feel reassured that your fur babies are doing well.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have experience caring for them and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’m responsible, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, whether that’s going on walks, playing, or simply keeping them company. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate a wide range of pet and house-sitting needs. I’m open to different schedules, including extended stays, overnight sitting, and last-minute bookings when available. My goal is to make things as convenient as possible for both you and your pets. I take safety, trust, and respect very seriously. I understand that when I’m caring for someone’s pet, I’m also being trusted with their home and personal belongings. I treat every household with the same care and respect I would expect for my own, making sure pets are safe and comfortable while keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I’m mindful of boundaries, follow the owner’s instructions, and always leave the home and belongings exactly as I found them.

About: Hello! I'm an active and energetic person with a deep love and appreciation for our canine companions. Dogs and humans have a deep connection that is rare in other animals and I immensely enjoy being around dogs and being sensitive to their needs and wants. I'm fairly athletic and fit and won't have any issues keeping up with active dogs. On the flip side, I can also be mellow and calm for older and more reserved pups. I like giving each dog space to get to know and be comfortable around me. How your friend feels about me is just as important as anything else. My goal is for all parties, especially your dog, to be happy with the arrangement! Thanks for checking out my profile! I’m currently working remotely part time so I’m available for recurring care depending on location and what’s needed for your pet. Just ask if you have questions! Happy to answer! I am always attentive to an animal’s state of being. I intuitively assess if they need attention or movement or space or food. I watch how they act and make sure to move with their safety and comfort level.

About: I’m naturally very observant and attentive to the little things. I pay attention to details changes in behavior, energy, body language, surroundings, and anything that seems out of the ordinary. I’ve cared for dogs for more than 10 years and have been pet sitting since 2020, and I understand how important it is to have someone you can genuinely trust with a member of your family. I’m dependable, patient, active, and a strong communicator. My goal is for you to leave your dog in my care knowing they are not only being walked or checked on they are being noticed, respected, and cared for. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give each dog my full attention rather than squeezing walks into an already crowded day. I enjoy staying active and outdoors, so dog walking fits naturally into my routine. Whether it’s an occasional walk or consistent weekly care, I want your dog to experience someone who is present, attentive, and never just checking a box. Trust begins with paying attention. I carefully follow the routines and instructions you provide because the little details often matter most. During walks and visits, I stay aware of your dog’s body language, surroundings, energy, and anything that seems unusual. I’ll respect your home, communicate clearly, and care for your dog with patience and attentiveness so you can have peace of mind while they’re with me.

About: I have owned dogs and cats for over 13 years. I have had special needs dog for a year, which taught me to be patient and very loving with our little loyal friends in times of need, I have had a cat that was very unfriendly to our dog so I was building their friendly relationship, and I’ve had Caucasian Shepherd that was very tough to control, but I was loving to train them and take care of them and eventually make them very well trained. I’m a huge dog fan, I love to play with them, exercise with them, just have fun with them. They are my favorite animals. I would be glad to walk your dogs, and take care of them while you are busy, keep up with their diets if required, keep them company while their parents are away, and of course play with them. I am home 24/7 and ready to take full care of your fur babies. I can arrange potty breaks and long walks to your needs. I have a house with a fence and backyard, and a huge green park next door. I have a 4 year old friendliest golden retriever to keep your baby company. I have crate options if it’s needed.

About: Hi! I’m Dez (they/them), a Long Angeles based professional pet sitter with a 5.0 rating and 29 completed services on Wag, including multiple “Goes Above & Beyond” and “Extra Caring” recognitions. I specialize in house sitting and boarding, providing calm, attentive, and consistent care so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone in your home — I treat every space respectfully and communicate clearly with regular updates and photos. I have experience with: • High-energy and working breeds • Senior dogs • Special needs care • Confident leash handling (including strong pullers) • Puppies and structured routines Because I work creatively and maintain a flexible schedule, I’m able to provide steady supervision and companionship — especially helpful for pets who need extra attention. My goal is simple: your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed, and you feel completely at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize consistency, supervision, and quality time with the pets in my care. For house sitting and boarding, I structure my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest to maintain each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I am typically able to provide multiple walks per day for dogs, structured activity for high-energy pets, and steady companionship throughout the day. For pets with specific routines or needs, I am happy to follow detailed instructions to ensure continuity and comfort. :) Safety and trust are my top priorities! In a client’s home, I carefully follow all provided instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and household guidelines. I treat every home with the utmost respect and ensure doors, gates, and crates are secured properly at all times. For boarding in my home, I maintain a clean, calm, and structured environment. Pets are supervised, walked on secure leashes, and given appropriate physical and mental stimulation based on their energy level. I avoid off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. I provide regular updates and photos so you always feel informed and confident while you’re away. My goal is to create a safe, low-stress environment where pets can relax and feel cared for. :)

I closely follow all care instructions, keep dogs safely leashed during walks, and ensure your pet feels secure, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay.

About: The first pay I earned as a kid was doing drop-in visits for a neighbor’s dogs, feeding and playing and doing check-ins with them throughout the day as a middle schooler. I grew up living with and taking care of my family dogs, and I am now the proud father of a darling golden retriever, Ginger, and a very special, cuddly diluted tortoise shell house cat, Freya. I have raised a puppy for Guide Dogs of America, taking care of and training basic commands from 8 weeks to a 18 months old, and have helped my wife foster many kittens for adoption with various outfits. I’ve watched neighbor’s dogs while they were out of town, done drop-in feedings for family member’s cats (5, each with their own type of food and feeding order!), and pet sat for friends during extended vacations. A pet is a part of our hearts, and I treat every pet I walk, watch, and play with like it is a part of mine. Gentle, nurturing, with patience and kindness. I am currently a freelance creative worker from home, so my schedule is very flexible and open for daytime drop-ins, dog walking, pet feeding, and play time! I am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits with your animals and can accommodate different windows for busy and traveling pet parents alike. I have experience walking both adult dogs and puppies, as well as different dog sizes. Growing up, my family dogs were mostly small sized breeds like Shih Tzus, but as an adult I currently have a golden retriever as part of the family, so I am comfortable working with both small and larger sized dogs. I also have a cat that is very strictly only an indoor kitty, so I am extremely cognizant of door and house security when dealing with inside-only animals.

About: I enjoy spending lots of time playing, walking and even a little training. I have also had senior dogs that need a little extra care and attention. I am recently unemployed and have lots of time available. I would love nothing more than to help as many pets/pet parents as I can. Dogs can enjoy lots of play time and walks as well as maybe a little place time and snacks. I have had senior dogs as well that just need some down time and cuddles. I have a big fenced in backyard that allows for lots of playtime or maybe some rest in the shade.

“Letting someone into your home take care of your oets is a nerve-racking experience. We are so grateful to have found Vy. She was very thorough on making sure she understood what our pets needs were before, even stopping by before the term started. She was a great communicator, letting us know every time she stopped by with photos and we felt like we were there real time in terms of updates. It really put our minds at ease. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her next time we head out of town!”

About: With 10 years of dedicated pet care experience, I specialize in the extra attention required for puppies and senior dogs. I am highly experienced in managing puppy energy, maintaining potty training schedules, and reinforcing basic commands. For senior pets, I offer a calm environment and gentle companionship. Whether your pet needs a high-energy game of fetch or a quiet cuddle on the couch, I adapt my care to fit their unique personality and routine perfectly. I’m currently working in a school setting. I will be available after school hours. I will have more availability during school breaks. That would be holidays, spring, and summer. I have full availability on the weekend. I would love taking them on walks. Depending on their energy or needs, it can be long or short. If there’s a park nearby I’d love to play fetch or run around with them. I always have treats on hand to reinforce basic commands.

She kept us updated, followed all of our instructions carefully. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Shana is great! I hired her to take care of our tortoises that live outside while we were gone for 9 days. Not only did they need daily food and water, but their house also needed to be cleaned regularly. They’re pretty large tortoises so they also make big messes. She updated me every day, took pictures, and I came home to a spotless tortoise enclosure which was a dream. She really cared for them the way we do and I knew she bonded with them from her messages. If you’re looking for someone who is reliable, trustworthy and extremely caring, hire Shana!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cypress on Rover is $23 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 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 20,589 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cypress. 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 .

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.

  • 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 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.
