About: Pets are family, and I know that firsthand! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and couldn’t imagine it any other way. Growing up, we had two energetic and lovable miniature schnauzers, Shaggy and Betty, who brought so much joy to our home. After they passed, I adopted my sweet girl, Cali, two years ago. She’s my adventure buddy—we go on daily walks and runs, and she keeps me on my toes! I’m friendly, active, and caring, and I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy looking after your pets when you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or making sure they’re well taken care of, I’ll treat your fur babies as if they were my own. I can’t wait to meet you and your pets and give them all the love and attention they deserve! Since I work fully remote, I have the flexibility to incorporate pet care into my daily routine. My own dog, Cali, is a big part of my day—we go on morning and evening walks, and I take regular breaks to give her attention, play, or just check in. This setup allows me to provide consistent care, whether it’s feeding, walking, or just giving pets the love and attention they need. I can easily adjust my schedule to accommodate drop-ins, walks, or extended stays, ensuring your pets are well cared for while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. In my home, I provide a pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddle sessions. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible to minimize stress. In a client’s home, I respect their space and their pet’s established routine. I make sure to follow all instructions regarding feeding, exercise, medications (if needed), and any special requests. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just providing companionship, I always ensure that pets receive the care and attention they deserve. My goal is to make them feel at ease while their owners are away!

About: I have experience with pups with medical needs (my dog has an autoimmune disease). I enjoy walking, playing, and interactions with dogs of all sizes. From dobbies to yorkis and all dogs in between I have had positive interactions them. I don't have a fixed schedule, so I'm flexible, to be able to watch your baby(s). I can do morning, afternoon, evenings and nights. Except Sunday morning, until noon. We can go on a hike, play tag or any other rewarding game. I can feed on routine, and clean up any accidental messes. I can dog sit if needed, I live on 140 Acres and walk it often with my babies.

About: I grew up with love from dogs and cats. I cared for four dogs that I grew up with while seeing them go through their playful puppy/dinosaur teething stages to their sweet senior days. My fifth dog is an Australian German Shepard with lots of energy! Energetic dogs don't frighten me whatsoever. I have much love for senior dogs as well. I love them all equally and I understand the amount of patience, attention, and love they need. I am currently in college taking online classes. My studies don't interfere with pet care. I make time for every pet and their individual needs. I care for pets daily and have weekly routines that I follow everyday to prevent any worries. When I am in a client's home my main priority is the pets safety while their parents are gone. I treat the home and their pets as if they were my own, with respect and love. I follow instructions and the pets daily routine.

About: I am a certified Veterinary Assistant and was Pre-Vet in college. I have volunteered at the animal shelter and fostered pets since I was in middle school. I have always had a passion for animals and even though I followed my love for children and education for my full-time career endeavor, I still enjoy volunteering and fostering via the shelter whenever I can. I adore pets and enjoy spending time with them. I have plenty of time after work, weekends, summers, and eve some holidays! I love taking my own dogs on long walks and to the dog park to meet new friends. I treat all pets like family, which is why I am one of the go-to foster parents to help socialize new animals brought into the shelter. I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door that stays in, so pets may enter and leave as they please. They are welcome in every room and can hop on the couch to cuddle and watch a movie.

About: Hi, I’m Abby! 🐾 I had the joy of owning and caring for my family’s two Shih Tzus since I was 10 years old, and they became two of my very best animal friends. Sadly, they both crossed the rainbow bridge 2 years old. Now I give my love for my pets to others’ furry friends. Growing up with my Shih Tzus has taught me just how much love, patience, and care our pets deserve. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with pet sitting, house sitting, and babysitting, and family, friends, and babysitting clients have trusted me to walk, feed, and care for their beloved pets as if they were my own. A fun fact about me: I’m a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) by day! My background has taught me the value of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and I love using those principles to help animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I know pets are family, and I’ll treat your furry friend with the same love and attention I give my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pet and give them all the care, affection, and attention they deserve! 🐶❤️ I have the most availability during evenings, weekends, and select weekdays depending on my work schedule. I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents in advance to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I’ll do my best to provide dependable, loving care for your furry family members! Safety and comfort are my top priorities! I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet and welcome them into your home. I will follow your care instructions closely, ensure a safe environment, and make sure your furry friends receive plenty of attention, patience, and affection during every visit or walk. During walks, I will use appropriate safety precautions, keep your dog securely leashed, and remain attentive to their surroundings and individual needs. For drop-in visits, I aim to respect your home, follow your pet’s feeding and care routines, and ensure they have everything they need before I leave.

“Kiley is amazing! She looked after our three cats, one of whom has diabetes and needs insulin shots, and Kiley was just perfect with him. Our other two cats warmed up to her immediately — they definitely know a cat person when they see one :). She has such a calm, warm presence, and genuinely enjoyed spending time with our kitties (who were clearly very happy to see her every day). Kiley went above and beyond in more ways than we can count, and we have no hesitation in highly recommending her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets. She treated our cats like they were her own, and that gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her.”

About: I have worked in a pet food and supply store for two years where I learned a lot about how to properly take care of dogs, and how to train puppies. I have also had two dogs for about ten years now. I do part time work, but my hours there are short and flexible. I am available all other times including evenings and weekends for walks, and to check in on dogs. For houses sitting services I am available all week. I live by many parks for the dogs to play in, and I would be happy to take them to dog beaches or dog parks. I am unable to bring dogs inside my home right now as I’m living with someone who is extremely allergic, but still want to fill my heart with the joys of dogs.

About: I have a deep love and respect for every pet I care for. I adopted a sick puppy, and through patience and nurturing, he has blossomed into a beloved member of my family. This experience has taught me the profound bond that can develop between a pet and their caregiver, highlighting the importance of kindness and understanding in every interaction. I’ve also gained experience by showing care and compassion to animals in need around me, making sure they feel safe and comfortable. Each animal has its own unique personality and needs, and I strive to create a warm and welcoming environment for them all. My commitment to treating every pet with compassion ensures they feel loved and secure while in my care. I work remotely as a freelancer, which gives me the flexibility to integrate pet care into my daily routine seamlessly. This allows me plenty of time to spend with furry friends, playing, cuddling, and ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve. My schedule enables me to provide a nurturing and engaging environment, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable and cared for throughout the day. When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, I prioritize their safety and comfort above all else. I follow their food schedule diligently to ensure they maintain a healthy routine. Engaging with pets through playtime and interactive activities is essential, as it keeps them stimulated and happy. Since I do not have pets of my own, I can provide a safe and distraction-free environment for them. Living in an apartment allows me to easily take them for walks outside in green areas, where they can explore and enjoy some fresh air. If needed, I can safely crate pets to provide them with a secure space to relax. My home is a welcoming environment filled with love and attention, ensuring every pet feels safe and at ease. Building trust is key, and I take the time to understand each pet's unique personality and needs, creating a positive experience for both them and their owners.

Danielle has been absolutely wonderful! We first met her for a meet & greet earlier this week before booking our first drop-in, and right away we felt comfortable with her. She’s so kind, and you can genuinely tell how much she loves and cares for animals. Today she came by for an hour to let Shane and Parker out for a potty break, and she went above and beyond by spending extra time with them. We really appreciated that and loved knowing our boys were getting some extra attention and company while we were away. We’re so thankful we found Danielle and feel completely comfortable having her care for our dogs. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! ❤️🐾

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Grand Terrace

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Grand Terrace is $25 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $20 and $31 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 4,119 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Grand Terrace. 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 Grand Terrace. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
