“Hailey gave the pups meds, refilled their food and water bowls, filled puzzles, ensured they had time outside, and helped one of my pups with getting a diaper on. She’s a sweet girl and the pups love her. Grateful for her and her eagerness to help with the pups.”

About: I have been actively taking care of pets my whole life. I love animals and treat them like my own children. I have a 10 year old daughter who is on her way to become a vet and wife who loves pets just as much! I work from home and can accommodate your schedule at anytime needed. I would be happy to make sure that your pet has the best experience. I have a fully fenced yard on a quiet street. I allow pets to use any furniture they would like to make themselves a home

About: Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always been surrounded by animals! My next-door neighbor would trust me for weeks at a time to take care of her old cat, and I would always take care of my pets when my parents weren’t home. Over the past year and a half, I worked at a local veterinary clinic as a veterinary assistant! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve decided to take on pet-sitting full time while I finish college with my career goal being a veterinarian! I also own a leopard gecko, giving me experience handling exotic reptiles! Whether your pets need frequent potty breaks, walks, play-dates, or any sort of medication, I’m your gal! Your pet’s safety and well-being will always be my top priority! I’m currently unemployed, and about to finish my college semester- giving me of the time in the world to work with you and your pets! My availability will always be flexible and I will be attentive to any of your needs. I live with one (soon to be two) dogs! My current dog is very sweet and sociable- she loves to make new friends! I’m used to taking big and small dogs on walks, and am more than willing to take your pet on a playdate with mine! I can crate your animal, prepare special meals, and clean up after them if they’re used to going potty in your backyard! Same thing applies to cats and their litter-boxes! I will always be sure to make sure your pets are comfortable while you’re away.

About: What sets me apart is a lifetime of hands-on experience and a genuine bond with dogs. While I haven’t worked as a professional dog sitter before, I’ve been caring for dogs since I was seven years old. I’m now 32, and throughout my life, I’ve had a Maltese, an English Setter, and a Gordon Setter. My setters were hunting dogs, so I’m comfortable with energetic, intelligent breeds that need both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I’ve trained them in basic obedience, manners, and recall, and I understand the importance of consistency, patience, and clear boundaries. I’ve cared for both small and large dogs, and I’m experienced with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, and making sure they feel safe, calm, and loved. I can also teach simple commands and fun tricks like sit, stay, lie down, roll over, spin, and shake. I am a Spanish woman who moved to Folsom with my husband a year ago. I am a great animal lover and I have had dogs since I was little. In my childhood, I lived with two setters: an English setter and a Gordon setter, and a Maltese bichon. This has given me experience with both large and small dogs. Now, although we cannot have one of our own, I would love to care for others, as I greatly enjoy their company. My daily routine is flexible, and I have full availability to adapt to the needs of clients and their pets. I fully adapt to each pet’s needs. I am very attentive and will always ensure the dog has food, water, and is comfortable. If I notice something is wrong, I address it immediately. I handle walks carefully, avoiding direct sun, and if bathing is needed, I do so with experience, using proper shampoos and conditioners, especially for long coats. I can also brush them. If a vet visit is required, I will take care of it. Additionally, I love playing with dogs and making sure they feel calm and happy when their owners are away. In short, I handle all the care a dog needs with attention and affection.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have grown up caring for dogs, including my own, where I’ve helped with daily feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping up with their routines. I understand that every dog has their own personality and needs, and I love making sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. As a college soccer player, I’m active, responsible, and dependable. I enjoy spending time outdoors and would love to help your pets get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’ll treat every pet like my own and keep you updated so you can feel confident while you’re away. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and can build their needs into my schedule. I’m active and responsible, so I’m comfortable providing walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship while making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. I prioritize communication with owners and make sure their pets receive the attention and routine they’re used to. I have three dogs and love to keep them active and playful. I love taking them on evening walks. Their names are Bubba, Vinny, and Dodger!

About: I have had pets all of my growing up and have taken care of them. I have walked many dogs on wag from small dogs with little activity to huskies. Also for a year and half now I have house sitter for clients from a week to a weekend to a day. Getting a degree has shown me my resilience, self-determination, and commitment to hard work. Also my ability to provide compassionate care not only to people but also making your pets feel safe. I’m currently working full time from 8:00am to 4:30pm Monday to Friday in person in Sacramento. So it would be great if you have a doggy door or some way for the pets to potty during the day outside. After 4:30pm I am able to stay the whole night with furr babies. When going into your home, I will make sure to be respectful of your surroundings and be in and out as fast as possible. Also I will leave it as I initially saw the home when I arrived.

“Anastassia is amazing!! She is very communicative, she set up a meet and great immediately and she is a natural with animals, knowing immediately how to work with the quirks and behaviors of our dog. She took our dog for a walk and was proactive about her needs including thinking to bring a water bowl. Our baby was nice and tired when I got home from work, I could tell she loved her new friend. Will definitely use Anastassia again!!”

About: I have cared for pets of all sizes, ages, and needs! I am comfortable with caring for animals needing extra attention, elder pets, administering medication if needed, and making it my standard to treat your pet like my own! I myself have two kitties and a dog, so I know how important it is that they are around people with relaxing and good energy, which I can provide! A fun fact about me is that I am an Air Force veteran, so I am responsible and reliable!! I am currently a full-time student at Sacramento State, so I am at school from 9-10:15am Monday through Thursday starting this fall, which allows me to be available for your pet before and after class! I also work part-time from home on Mondays and Wednesdays and Fridays :) When I pet sit, I make sure that I leave the space I am pet sitting in just as it was when I arrived, if not cleaner. I respect the environments I am welcomed into and show my gratitude for any opportunity to fill a space by treating it as my own!

We were very pleased with her professionalism and our two Main Coon cats loved her:) she was prompt, and sent us pictures of our fur babies while we were away on an overnight trip to Santa Cruise for my birthday. It was so good to know that our babies were in her good and capable hands while we were away. We will definitely be hiring her again in the near future! Thank you Amy!! ?”

About: I owned a dog camp for 10 years in the mountains outside of Boulder, CO. My daughter and I want to share our love and knowledge of animals with others. We have lots of experience and would love to spend time with your furry friends. My staff and I also worked extensively with Tenderfoot Trainers in Boulder, CO, and I have experience with a variety of dog personalities. We have a very flexible schedule and work from home. I have a small import business and work from home. My daughter homeschools and has various classes and lessons throughout the week. We can provide care (walks, food, snuggling, and potty breaks) in the early morning, at lunchtime, and/or dinner time as well as do sleepovers. We provide services housesitting, dog-walking, feeding, and giving potty breaks. Both my daughter and I love animals and we treat all pets as if they were our own. We understand how challenging it is to be away from your furry family but we will give lots of love, send lots of pics and do our best to form a lasting and loving relationship with your dog while you're away. We hope that your pup has as much fun as you while on vacation!

“Rylie did a 30 minute drop-in on our 4 month old puppy while we were out. She came by early so we could meet her, then did the check on Meadow a few hours later. She was prompt and spent the time allotted with Meadow letting her out to go potty and playing with her. We will be happy to use Rylie again to watch our golden doodle girl. Thank you Rylie!”

“This was our first experience using Rover.com, and we couldn't have been happier! Our sitter, Elaine, is terrific! Not only did she capture amazing pictures of our two Bengal cats, she even managed to win over Shiloh, who normally runs and hides under the bed whenever a stranger comes into our home. My husband and I could hardly believe our eyes when we watched the video of Shiloh letting Elaine pet her. It was nice, too, to come home to a clean and tidy area where the food dishes are as our cats always like dropping their food on the floor before eating. I highly recommend Elaine.”

Carmen and her daughter made us feel so reassured our puppy was in the best hands on her first vacation. Carmen gave our high maintenance pup lots of love and us updates with photos, videos and updates. Our puppy loved them right away and was so happy during her vacation. Carmen reinforced our puppy’s training and gave her so many walkies that our puppy already misses her vacation with Carmen! Carmen treated our pup like her own, taking her on car rides and letting her sleep on her bed. We highly recommended Carmen!

Rachel was absolutely phenomenal and we feel so lucky to have found her 🤍 She stepped in last minute and even took the time to come by the day before for a meet and greet, which meant so much. From the moment she arrived, it was clear how comfortable and happy our Labrador puppy Betty was with her. Rachel was attentive, playful, and so thoughtful with her care. She made sure Betty got her potty breaks, playtime, and even adjusting when she started to get a little wild (puppy energy 😂). We loved the updates and photos, and it was obvious Betty had the best time. Knowing Betty was in such kind, capable hands gave us total peace of mind. We would 100% trust Rachel again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and truly wonderful with dogs 🐾

FAQs for Pet Sitting - El Dorado Hills

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in El Dorado Hills is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $33 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 October 2026, there are 3,731 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across El Dorado Hills. 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.

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

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 .

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.
