About: I’m new on Rover, but not new with animals! I promise if you give my services a try you won’t regret it. I’ve always loved being around animals and have spent most of my life caring for them. I grew up with five dogs and three cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of all different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playing, giving them lots of attention, or simply keeping them company. I’ll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and love I would give my own. Because my own pets span different ages, I'm comfortable at both ends of the spectrum, young, high-energy dogs who need structure, exercise, and patience while they're still learning, and older pets who need a gentler pace, extra comfort, and a close eye on their mobility and appetite. I follow feeding and medication routines exactly as you write them, and I'll always check with you first if anything seems unusual. Pet care is already built into my daily routine. I'm available on Friday evenings after 5pm, and Saturdays and Sundays, and with a bit of notice I can usually fit around your pet's usual routine. For holidays I'm happy to help as long as I know in advance. Just send me a message and I'll always get back to you quickly. My partner and I love our animals, and your pet would be treated like one of our own. My home is already set up for pets, secure, pet-proofed, and supervised at all times.
About: ⭐️ Certified Pet CPR/First Aid ⭐️ Updates with photos and videos ⭐️ Personalized Activity Form Hi, I'm Celeste! 🩵 I'm an Anthropology student at San Francisco State University, and a volunteer at the California Academy of Sciences. I've loved animals my entire life and believe every pet deserves kindness, patience, and respect. My studies and volunteer work have deepened my appreciation for animals and conservation. I provide safe, attentive, and compassionate care to each pet's unique personality and routine. Whether your pet is a playful puppy, an energetic adult, or a senior needing gentle care, I'll follow their routine carefully and treat them like family while you're away. 🩷 Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I currently have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to each pet I care for. Beginning in late August, I'll be attending San Francisco State University, but I've arranged my class schedule to maintain availability throughout the week. I prioritize reliability, punctuality, and consistent communication, ensuring every pet receives the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. I'll always keep you updated with messages and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away. 🐾 I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I share my home with two young cats, one senior cat with a disability, and one senior dog, so I understand that every pet has unique needs. My pets are friendly and well-socialized, and I have a secure yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. Whether I'm caring for your pet in my home or yours, I'll follow their routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of affection. I'm Pet CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross and have experience providing patient, gentle care to senior and special-needs pets. I'll also send regular updates and photos, so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. ✨
“I'm so thrilled that my kitty Kato sees Arillia's strengths and warmth as a caregiver, which means he not only plays, cuddles, but also EATS (!) while I'm away. We're so lucky to have Arillia and the extra TLC she brings.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs all my life! Growing up I’ve always had cats and dogs. It was normal for me to take care of friends and families dogs too. For a while in the past I fostered puppies and elderly dogs. I’m currently at home all the time so I have 24/7 availability! I’m willing to also meet at the clients house but it’s easiest for me to take care of them at my own home! I’m able to take care of pets in my own home. I have a 1 acre backyard and a big park right next to my house to take the dogs on walks!
“Allison was fantastic with our cat Harriet! We wanted Harriet to be kept company while we went on a trip, and she warmed up to Allison right away. Allison was punctual each visit, and kept us up to date with everything. Highly recommended!”
“Cynthia is great with Muddy. She took the time to understand all of our instructions and followed them exactly. But most important, Muddy loves spending time with her. He’s a Covid puppy and takes a while to warm up to new people, but he seemed to like Cynthia from our first meet and greet. I would highly recommend hiring Cynthia to take care of your pet!”
“She went above and beyond! Very happy that I found Tara. Descriptive about everything that went down each visit. Sent videos of proof that one of my cats got his pills twice a day. Sent pics that ensured doors were locked. She was on top of it. Will definitely book again!”
About: Hello! I’m Brittany, a lifelong animal lover and current dog mom to a 52-lb. pup of my own. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry friend as they’re part of your family! 🐾 I have experience caring for dogs (and cats!) of all different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities and am comfortable with everything from walks and playtime to feeding, potty breaks, and plenty of attention and affection. As a dog owner myself, I understand that every pet has their own routine, quirks, and preferences, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely to help them feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. 🙂 I have experience with dogs of all sizes from small terriers to medium-size doodles to large labs and shepherds. I love puppies and have experience on how to raise them to be good doggy citizens. I also have experience with reactive dogs and understand the training and scenarios to place them in or avoid to make sure they are successful. I adore them all! ❤️ Whether your pet needs a good walk, some company while you’re out, or a comfortable place to spend the day, I’d love to meet you and your furry family member! My schedule is currently very flexible, which allows me to accommodate weekday walks, drop-ins, and day care as well as some weekend care. I’m dependable, communicative (I take way too many pictures!), and will always keep you updated so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for. For daycare, I live in a standalone home in San Francisco with a private, spacious, fenced-in backyard, giving dogs plenty of room to play, explore, and relax. My dog can be the perfect playmate or I can keep them hanging solo if preferred. For drop-ins/walks, I’ll make sure to follow your specific instructions to ensure a safe and happy environment.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Daly City
Rongrong completed the absolute marathon of cat sitting—spanning 14 days and 27 visits! She even jumped in at the last minute to cover the final visit when another sitter couldn't make it. Throughout her stay, Rongrong went above and beyond for Baba and Tanzi. She handled all the essentials like feeding, fresh treats, and cleaning the litter boxes, but she also gave them total VIP treatment. She captured tons of great photos and videos, showered them with attention, and even gave them a relaxing "spa time" while brushing their fur. She made being away from the kitties so much easier. Baba and Tanzi absolutely love her! They showed their affection by giving her whisker rubs, wrapping their tails around her in little hugs, and rolling over to show her their bellies.
Aaron has been an incredible sitter! Reliable and easy to communicate with. My cat is intensely shy with visitors and often hides under the couch for many hours, but with Aaron, she clearly enjoys his company. I'm glad Aaron has the patience to have her feel comfortable.
Liang was incredible!! Our kitty needed some food and attention on our first big trip away and Liang sent numerous photos and videos daily! Her communication, timeliness, courtesy, kindness was through the roof and I highly recommend Liang to take care of your critter. If we're ever out of town again, I'm enlisting Liang's help for sure! I felt so reassured with our kitty in Liang's hands :)
Tara is the absolutely best cat sitter ever. We were in Hawaii for a whole week so we were a little nervous leaving Tony alone for so long, but Tara went above and beyond! Tony loves Tara and immediately warmed up to her to play and hang out. Tara’s write ups about the check ins were so detailed and so many pictures. So thankful to have Tara!
Thanks so much for taking such wonderful care of Iroh! And also for taking gooe care of our home when he had his accidents! Tanya was professional and communicative. She was flexible and took care of the situation when our cat wasn’t relieving himself, or was relieving himself but on our bath mat, welp. Highly recommend!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Daly City is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $44 per visit. On Rover, 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 long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 11,421 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Daly City. 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 Daly City. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
