About: I’m comfortable with cats & dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My guy is a wonderful handful so I understand that every pet has their own routine and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals—not just feeding them and letting them out..but giving them attention, playtime, walks, and plenty of love. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Just like I would do for my own I am currently working 9–6 Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday, so Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday are the days I have the most flexibility for you and your furry ones. These are the days I can dedicate the most time and attention to your pets. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and schedule visits, walks, and drop-ins around their individual needs. I work until 6pm so night time can be available if needed. I have a dog named BlackJack who is blast and high energy, so I understand how important it is to know that your pet is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. I’m attentive to doors, gates, leashes, and other safety details, and I’ll follow your instructions and your pet’s normal routine. I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’ll also keep you updated with pictures and videos (if you would like) so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing!

I also make it personal to provide pet owners with occasional check-ups to ensure them of their fur baby’s satisfaction!
“Nevaeh was absolutely wonderful! She took amazing care of my pet while I was away — very communicative, and loving. I got regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind. 🤗”
About: I’ve grown up around pets since birth! Mostly cats and dogs (big and small); but also bunnies, lizards, and even an African gray parrot! I have a very flexible work schedule, so I can be there whenever your fluffy family member needs me. I believe piece of mind is a top priority, when choosing someone to take care of your pet, so that is why I send photo and text updates at every visit! I am currently working a job with flexible hours, so I can make myself available anytime for your pet! Apart from occasional trips, I am a full-time Naples resident who is available for recurring visits. I am a young person with lots of energy for short runs, long walks or high-energy play sessions! I also enjoy engaging with lower energy pets through cuddles, slow walks, or simply sitting outside together enjoying the breeze.

About: I love dogs and have grown up taking care of them! I’ve been trusted to walk and care for my friends and neighbors dogs for years, and would love to continue! I also volunteer at the humane society a couple times a month so I have experience walking all dogs big and small. I do work part-time so I have some great availability to care for your dogs! I can do afternoon and mornings and pretty much any day we can schedule! I will make sure to treat your home and pets with the utmost respect, as I would want someone to do the same to me always!
“Allyson was FANTASTIC while caring for our Moo cat. She made sure to update us during every visit and spoiled Moo like she was her own. We will definitely request Allyson again for future drop-ins!”
“Ashton was an absolute blessing for my dogs last week. I had a long shift to work at the last minute and I reached out … she was so prompt replying to my late night messages about the next day. Ashton was so accommodating and very thorough throughout the day sending me updates on my “crew” Elvis, Roo and Dior. Highly recommended A+++”
About: My whole life I have loved animals, ranging from large to small, old to young, laid back to energetic . I do have my own pet a 8lbs chihuahua-Yorkshire terrier mix and have had many animals growing up so I am very familiar with connecting and taking care of animals of all kinds. From having my own pet I have learned all about taking good care of her, feeding her healthy food, playing with her and giving her tons of attention to make her feel her best. I also have experience administering oral medications and taking the dog to the veterinary for care. I have also fostered a puppy from the local animal shelter which was a great learning experience for me. I have had experience watching neighbors and friends cats and dogs when they have been away on vacation. I’m very friendly and patient with animals, so any specific care will never be a problem, whether you need me to crate your animal, give them their daily oral medication or just spend time and play with them. For longer house sits I am willing to bathe your pet if applicable. I can take care of your pets during the week or weekend. I can also spend most of the day at your house for house sittings. I am very patient and enjoy getting to know each and every pet and making friends with them. I like walking and playing with the pets as well as taking good care of them. I also have experience taking care of a deaf and blind dog which has taught me a lot about patient and loving care.
“Amanda did a very good job tanking care our puppy Nep. during the week we were out of home. She has got along with our Chihuahua since the first minute they met each other. Amanda is very responsible and dedicated with her job. We are so grateful.”
“Lulu had a great day with Laurel. I dropped her off for a day visit before I leave her for a week. She came home tired and happy. I'm sure she is looking forward to going back next week.”
About: Have raised cats and dogs and love having them around us! They add a special dimension of love to every home. Didn’t like using a kennel to board ever! This is so much better! Ready to shower your fur baby with love! We own no dogs now and our only cat thinks all dogs are her best friend! We have a large crate if needed and an enclosed Lani for fresh air. Nice yard for walks and neighborhood in Trenno development has sidewalks. Experienced with puppies and senior dog care. I’m currently retired and just love working with animals part time. Currently I have one wonderful tortoise cat living with us. Have had cats and dogs most of our 46 years of marriage. I can provide whatever services you need in your home or visits to your home. I can also transport a pet in our van to the vet or to a dog park.
About: What sets me apart is my 20+ years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages. I have plenty of experience with energetic puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs who may need extra patience, attention, and gentle care. I’ve also had multiple experiences working with pet rescues, which has helped me understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and comfort level. I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely passionate about making every pet feel safe, loved, and at home. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I treat every pet in my care as if they were my own! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I take my dogs outside 5–6 times a day, go on walks twice a day, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, exercise, and affection. We also build in time for relaxing, cuddling, and resting throughout the day. I keep regular feeding times and pay attention to each dog’s individual needs and routine. As part of our active, pet-loving family, I make sure there’s a good balance of activity, attention, and downtime so every pet feels happy, safe, and loved! I live in a home with a fenced yard and three friendly dogs, so caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday life! We’re a fun, active family who loves spending time outdoors, playing, and giving our pets lots of love and attention. I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable while following their routines, feeding schedules, and individual needs. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they receive plenty of affection, exercise, playtime, and care!

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Golden Gate
Dawn was absolutely amazing with my kitty. I have a very skittish cat that normally will not come out for anybody and she managed to get my kitty to come out and let her pet her. This was the longest I’ve ever been away from my cat and the furthest I’ve ever been and I felt completely comfortable knowing that Kiki was safe and taken care of back home 💜
Kayla did a great job this week looking after our 2 kitties. She consistently checked in & provided photos, which showed the cats being very comfortable with her (a stranger to them) which was very reassuring. Kayla provided very reliable & caring service and we look forward to having her look after our kitties again.
Dani was absolutely wonderful with Aspen! She was patient, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout the entire stay, which gave us great peace of mind. Aspen was well cared for and happy, and it was clear Dani genuinely enjoys what she does. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Golden Gate is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $39 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 1,232 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Golden Gate. 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 Golden Gate. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 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.
