“Zoeyanne is the best! She is our “go to” solution for pet sitting in the Half Moon Bay area. She is thorough, prompt and professional, and she really cares about my cat! You cannot miss with Zoeyanne!”
About: I’ve owned pets all my life. I had a dearly loved dog that I saw through from puppyhood all the way to thirteen years old when she passed from cancer. I’ve had two cats since they were kittens, one of which had hyperthyroidism which required daily treatments. He has since passed away from kidney failure at seventeen. As a team with my sister, we personally trained our dog — and even the cats — using books to learn how to bond with the animals. I’ve not had a conventional job working with animals, but I am my friends’ go-to for pet sitting. I’ve done extended stay pet sitting (ten+ days) involving overnight care. I’ve handled daily medications for cats and dogs and worked on leash training for a friend’s dog as well as house training puppies. I currently live with an elderly cat and three freshwater aquariums. I’m available most days of the week and on weekends. I’m a freelance artist and my work is easy to time manage around. I always clean up after a pet and make sure they have easy access to water at all times. I know how to keep dogs inside a fenced area and keep inside cats from running out the door.
“Lehna was amazing. She communicates in a timely manner and clearly loves pets. She took care of my two cats on short notice, and I've never felt more relaxed while away. She documented everything she did on each visit and shared photos. I highly recommend her.”
“Bennett is an amazing pet sitter. He was very patient with our not so friendly dog and completely won her over! We plan to continue using Bennett for reliable dog and cat care.”
“Anna was so sweet with my puppy. She spent some time with her and even went the extra mile trying to get her to sleep before she left. She did a meet and greet the day before hand which was nice of her. Would definitely reach out again for a check in!”
“First time booking Esmeralda to drop-in on our cats and she was great! She was very punctual and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. We loved receiving photos from her at each visit. We will definitely be returning to Esmeralda the next time we are away.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs my entire life, including Pomeranians, Jack Russell Terriers, German Shepherds, and mixed-breed dogs of all sizes. My experience ranges from energetic, high-drive breeds that need plenty of exercise and engagement to laid-back companions who prefer a slower pace. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playtime, training reinforcement, or simply companionship, I provide patient, dependable care and treat every pet as if they were my own. I work full-time supporting adults with developmental disabilities, so reliability, patience, and attention to detail are part of my everyday life. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I enjoy spending my free time with animals. In addition to caring for dogs and cats throughout my life, I also have experience with small birds and bearded dragons. I am available afternoons, evenings, and weekends and will work to maintain your pet’s normal schedule so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I believe every pet deserves individualized care based on their personality, routine, and needs. I carefully follow feeding instructions, medication schedules, exercise requirements, and any household rules provided by owners. Safety is always my top priority, whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or during walks and visits. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I strive to provide dependable communication and updates throughout each stay.
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and truly love getting to know each one’s personality. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their dogs of all breeds and sizes. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and those who need a little extra patience or training. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or quiet cuddles, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and happy while in my care. I’m currently working part time, I can care for your pet before work and after work. I will work less than 12 hours a week so I’m hoping to be available often. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always treat their space with the same respect as my own. I follow each pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure doors and gates are always locked, water bowls are fresh, and pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and love. I send regular photo updates so you can feel confident your furry family member is happy and safe while you’re away.
About: I’ve been around cats and dogs my whole life, and I’m comfortable caring for animals of different breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I grew up with cats and was lucky enough to have a litter born in my room, so I’ve been around them from the very beginning. I also grew up with dogs of all sizes and personalities, from playful high-energy dogs to older dogs who need a gentler pace and a little more support. I’m especially patient with animals that are shy, skittish, cautious, or slow to warm up. I know not every cat or dog wants to be approached the same way, and I try to meet them on their terms, earn their trust, and make the interaction feel safe and positive. Whether that means a walk, playtime, quiet companionship, or giving them space, I want your pet to feel comfortable with me. When I take care of an animal, I treat them like they’re my own. I’m attentive with feeding, water, litter boxes, walks, routines, house instructions, and updates. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident while you’re away, and for your pet to get care, attention, and comfort from our time together. I currently have flexible availability and can work with different pet-care needs, including walks, drop-in visits, cat care, and in-home pet sitting. I’m available for weekdays, weekends, and overnights depending on the request, and I’m happy to discuss your pet’s normal routine so I can keep things as consistent as possible while you’re away. I do not offer boarding in my home at this time. For walks, drop-ins, and house sitting, I care for pets in their own home and follow the owner’s instructions closely. I pay attention to feeding routines, fresh water, litter boxes, doors, locks, leash safety, and keeping pets secure and comfortable. I’ll also provide updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“Deborah kindly met us a week before she sat for our large golden doodle. We had our son’s wedding in HMB. Deborah was very accommodating and arranged a working situation to handle our Eliot for a the long day in a hotel. And when asked to add a puppy of a bridesmaid, she happily cared for two distinctly different dogs- large and older/ puppy and miniature. Deborah easily manages dogs large, small, young and old. I’d highly recommend her for any dog owner!!”
About: I’ve worked at a doggie daycare for 5 years and we have all types of dogs and puppies. We go on daily outings for 45min or more and always the beach so I’m down for long walks with the doggies I work M-F 8-3 so available anytime after that and weekends! I’m more available on weekdays than weekends. But anything is possible and I can work it out either way I have had an animals all my life and have dealt with the beginning stage of puppies. I have always been the one to look after my dogs and family dogs meaning feeding them, taking them out, etc
“Alyssa watched my cat while I was gone for the weekend. She did a great job, was always on time and administered the medication that he needs while I was away. He was a happy boy when I got home and it seems like they had a good time together. I’ll be booking her again in the future.”
“Vicky did an amazing job with my cat Juno. She walked, fed, and played with her. I was impressed with how quickly she responded to messages and how reliable she was. The daily pictures made me feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking Vicky in the future!”
About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of many of them. Happy to take young adults on tiring runs. Also enjoy a gentle walk with an old fella. Currently working on some entrepreneurial pursuits, which means my schedule is very flexible. With enough of a head up I can likely accommodate what ever needs you have. I happy to follow what ever boundaries are set for the care of your per. As well as follow any guidelines for care of your home.
“Stephen and Erica watched our cat during the Christmas holidays (and agreed to do so on relatively short notice!) and we came home to a happy cat who had received some new toys for Christmas. It was great getting to see pictures of her while we were away and know that there was someone around to make sure that she was eating and getting some attention. Would definitely boom with Stephen and Erica again!”
“Highly recommend Maria! Super responsive, reliable and easy to work with. Her affection for animals is clear to see! Felt so good to know she was checking on our cats. Look forward to hiring her again. Thank you Maria!”

Lehna was amazing. She communicates in a timely manner and clearly loves pets. She took care of my two cats on short notice, and I've never felt more relaxed while away. She documented everything she did on each visit and shared photos. I highly recommend her.
We requested zoeyanne at the last minute, less than a day before our trip and she responded promptly confirming the stay. She was great! Very punctual and took good care of the cat. I was worried Petra (my cat) would hide the whole time because she’s shy but she was so friendly and interested in Zoeyanne! The photos added were really cute and nice too. Would absolutely hire her again.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.
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.
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.
