“Celeste stepped in on super short notice, walked my dog for an hour, and was incredibly accommodating and friendly. My dog loved them, and I would definitely hire her again. Highly recommend!”

About: I take my dogs for runs, and I travel with her some times! I love watching after dogs and being physical! Exercise is very important! Currently I live with family and they help take care of our animals as well and take my dog and cat for walks, we live in nature so they sun bathe and frolic . I can offer going to peoples houses and that means making sure they're well fed and entertained and just really taking care of them anyway they need. I've also had an animal that had surgery so I'm familiar with giving shots and pills as well!
“I'm incredibly grateful for Luna's exceptional care of our beloved pooch while we were away for the day. From the moment they met, it was evident that Luna and our dog formed an instant bond. Their time together seemed nothing short of delightful, and I was thoroughly impressed by Luna's professionalism and evident passion for animals. Meeting her was a pleasure, and I'm eagerly anticipating the opportunity to enlist her services again in the future.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for all kinds of animals and animals are truly my life! I treat others’ fur babies as if they were my own. Pet sitting is my full time job so I don’t have any other conflicting professional obligations. I have my own pets and so they are the other main responsibility I work around when it comes to my schedule. I treat my clients homes with the utmost respect and care for every fur baby as if it were my own baby. I always consider the reassurance and comfort I would like to have and have for my own pets if they were in someone else’s care.
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, fish, and other animals all my life! I rescue animals when I can, have fostered, bottle fed, treated injuries, given injections and medications to many animals. Animals are my comfort zone- just being around them is my joy! I can do short walks, herding dog games, feed, or provide overnight care. I especially love herding and other working breed dogs, and typically get along with even difficult animals (feral cats for example!) I would love to meet you and your pets! I am a recently retired high school teacher sill working part time at UCSC, so am available most days to care for your pets. I have 2 dogs and 2 kitties at home, bit can easily help out pet parents who need extra walks, play time, or vacation care! My pets are my family (fur babies!) i will care for your pets like my own! I can care for your pets in your home- the least stressful for them! Or take them to a park, hikes, or a leisurely walk. In your home I will make sure to keep everything tidy, and treat your pets as my family- lots of snuggles and playtime!
About: I have taken care of my dog Sami ever since we brought him home from the shelter four years ago. Throughout high school I would feed him, take him for regular walks, and bathe him when needed. Now as a college student, this responsibility continues whenever I am home for breaks. I have also cat sit multiple times for my family friends when they would go out of town. I would come over daily to their house, feed and play with the cats, and change the litter box. Right now I am a student at Cal Poly, and work a part-time in retail. Pet sitting works especially well currently during the summer as I am home and not planning on traveling much. Taking my dog Sami on daily walks is already a part of my routine, and further pet care would fit well into my schedule. I have a fenced yard and a friendly dog Sami! I am always gentle and loving towards any animal, and genuinely love caring for them!
“I am beyond pleased with the exceptional care and attention that our male dog walker provided to my two schnauzers. In just two walks, it is evident that he genuinely cares for them. His sweet demeanor and dedication make him a standout choice. I will definitely be utilizing his services again”

About: As a lifelong dog parent, I love being a leader, cuddle puddle, walker, ball thrower, and runner for dogs of all kinds (100% adorable, every single one!) Whether your fuzziest family members prefer long walks on the beach or romps in the mountains, I love taking the furry friends out & about. Daycare, boarding, walking, medication management & special needs are all part of the arc of care, and am confident in showing your dear dogs the same care that my dogs get! I’m currently working part-time, and have a flexible enough schedule to accommodate weekday and weekend care as needed. I’m an early riser & love starting my day outdoors with a nice long walk. I have a fenced in yard & two friendly dogs to keep your pup company, and can accommodate crates for training if you prefer. We’re less than a miles from the beach and go for walks every couple hours, with plenty of play time & meals, as needed.

About: Hi !! I started house-sitting for my family members pets since high school. Since then, I have been recommended by many close friends of my family and I'm excited to branch out further into the Bay Area ! I have cared for pets of all ages, including several senior animals that I still regularly work with. Along with dogs and cats, I also have some experience with reptile care ! A lot of the clients I've worked with know me for my calm disposition when it comes to animals, so even the most anxious pets will feel safe in my care !! I am currently working at home working as a self-employed artist, so I should be available to care for your pets most days of the week! For walks and drop-ins I am available from 9am-4pm during the weekdays, and full time during weekends! Pets are a part of the family just as much as everyone else, so I like to treat them with the same courtesy! Since I mostly work on my laptop, I usually stick to staying home when I petsit, so your pets will have my company as much as possible! If your pet is more on the active side I will do my absolute best to fulfill their needs--I may not the most active person but I am no stranger to long walks and park playdates :) !
About: I have loved animals my entire life. Throughout college and high school, I worked as a dog walker for Wag and a kennel attendant at the local vet. I currently work on boats and do this in the off-season or when things are slow. I love spending time with animals and will treat your baby like one of my own, with lots of walks, cuddles, and attention. If you have more questions please reach out :) I work on boats and my schedule varies. I typically update my calendar to reflect that. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions :) I am more than happy to watch your pets in your home. I rent so I need to get approval from my landlords before taking requests in my own home
About: With over 20 years of experience caring for cats and dogs of all breeds and temperaments, I bring professional, reliable, and compassionate care to your pets. From administering medications and subcutaneous fluids to handling strong dogs on walks, I make sure your companions are safe, comfortable, and loved. At home, I care for two special-needs rescue cats, Angel and Squirrel, both three-legged “tripawds,” who keep me grounded in love every day. Animals have been my companions and teachers since childhood, and I love bringing that attentiveness into every sit. When I care for your pets, you can expect daily updates, consistent communication, and the peace of mind that they’re in loving, capable hands. I set my own schedule so I can fit in dog walks and drop-ins. Plan the day and service in hour-long slots and certain breaks. I live in a home with two cats, and a yard, shared with two friendly dogs, another cat and chickens, so boarding of a dog who is cat friendly, and friendly with other dogs and animals is possible.
About: I grew up with pets from the time I was born. We had cats, dogs, turtles, lizards, bunnies, horses etc. I’ve assisted in rescuing kittens from the jungle in the Caribbean as well as providing food to the stray dogs and cats. Currently I’m in between jobs and working on writing so 100% of my time is dedicated to pet care. I’m sorta weird and like hanging out with animals more than with most people, so the more time the better. I am 31 and was gifted with a good common sense gene. I play with the animals as much as possible and respond to their needs accordingly.
About: What can I say, I am an absolute animal lover! and I am sure your dog would have a great time with me! I have had animals my whole life and love to shower them with care and affection! I am local teacher with a lot of extra time on my hands for the summer. I love to go on long hikes and adventures or just hangout in my grassy fenced in backyard. Whatever your pet desires, I can make it happen! I live alone but do share my yard with two cats. Not only do I have years of owning my own pets, I also have years of experience volunteering at animal shelters. Working there I have learned some behavioral training techniques, though I am not fully a professional trainer. I am a full time teacher with summers off. I am single with no kids. I have availability in the mornings & afternoons and full availability in the summer. I have a fenced in yard and a pet friendly environment inside my house with no other pets. When at other houses I treat them with care and respect.
About: I enjoy caring for animals. Growing up some family members had farms and I would help them out. I have also house-sat and animal-sat for family and friends. I am very responsible and reliable.Ensuring your pets are well taken care of while you are away is my priority! With my schedule my availability is very flexible. Weekday, Holidays, and weekends, I am always available. Just graduated college and I am job searching, therefore I’ve have lots of availability! I make sure if we are in the yard that all gates are closed. As well as, there are no object in the area that can be a choking hazard. Your pets safely is my number one priority. I will provide a fun and pleasant experience while your dog is under my care.

About: I've had dogs my whole life, and I truly believe that they are a part of the family. I grew up hiking, training, and playing with my own dogs, as well as pet-sitting for my friends and family in high school. My two childhood dogs were both big and high-energy, so I have experience with dealing with intense personalities-from hyper puppies to senior dogs with health issues. I am also used to walking and taking care of two dogs at once, so if you have more than one pet, I am prepared. Most of all, I love seeing dogs happy, whether that be through taking them on walks or giving them love and attention. I am a UCSB student, but I am home for the summer (until I go back to school in mid-September), so I will have plenty of time to care for your fur-babies! I am available anytime of day, all days of the week. I am extremely responsible and detail-oriented, and I will do whatever I can to make sure your pets are safe and happy. I will send frequent updates and pictures as I understand the anxiousness that can come from being separated from your pet. I also have experience with taking care of dogs that need to take frequent medication or have other ailments, as my first dog (an Akita mix) was seizure prone and arthritic but, with much love and care, lived to be 16. She recently passed, so I am eager to love your dogs as if they were my own.

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 dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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 walker.
