About: I am a cat owner and I have personal experience caring for cats every day. I understand feeding routines, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and giving cats calm, gentle attention. I am patient, reliable, and careful with each pet’s needs. I mainly offer cat drop-in visits. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, basic playtime, and checking on your cat’s condition. I understand that every cat has a different personality, so I will be gentle, patient, and respectful of their space. I understand how important it is to enter a client’s home respectfully and carefully. I will follow instructions closely, keep the space clean, make sure your cat has food and water, and pay attention to any unusual behavior or signs of stress.
About: I'm very good at dog trainer and loves to take care of animals. I have had a very sick dog that I have care of for all his life. From there I have learn how to care for sick animals. I enjoy doing morning walks with my dogs and evenings walks. When it comes to food time sometimes I do enjoy working with them so hand feeding is big for me unless the dog doesn't like that. I like to have a list from the owners to know what their pets expect. Such as if there's a food schedule and walks schedule. I do take safety precautions with dogs I dont know.

“Rebecca was amazing! She watched my 3 bunnies (yup, bunnies) for a week and took great care of them! I’m pretty sure they weren’t all that excited to have me back ?. It only did she feed them, she changed litter boxes, spent time socializing, let me know when the house was a little warm (during this insane heat wave), went to the store and bought more fresh greens, took amazing photos, and gave them adorable treat bags. I will 100% be rehiring her when we need to leave town again. Bunny parents- shes’s your woman!”

“Lindsey was great. She stopped by for a meet & greet in advance of our scheduled drop in visit. Lindsey came prepared with treats & our pups immediately took a liking to her.

Patricia took such good care of my kitten! She was attentive and engaged during the visits and was always on time for her visits. She sent updates and was very responsive. It was my first time using Rover, and Patricia put my fears away when using the app. She was so friendly and made sure to take care of my kitten like her own. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will be using her services again!
Kelly has been wonderful with our dogs. When we have to be away in the evening, we can always count on her to drop in and take great care of them. One of our dogs, Parker, is diabetic and requires his glucose levels to be checked and the correct amount of insulin administered, and Kelly handles this with care, confidence, and consistency every time. She is dependable, thoughtful, and gives us real peace of mind knowing our dogs are in such good hands. After every visit, she also provides a detailed report card with helpful updates, which we value greatly. We highly recommend her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Fontana on Rover is $22.47 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 4,938 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fontana. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Fontana stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Fontana. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
