“Alessandra was great. It was my first time trusting a stranger with my dogs AND to enter my home while I was away--both things that made me very nervous. However, the meet and greet made me feel very comfortable with Alessandra. Her concern for my dogs' safety and well-being felt 100% genuine, and put me at ease instantly. The dogs seemed to sense the good-person vibes too :)”

“Yasmin was perfect for taking care of my mom’s cat, Charlie. She was prompt every morning with an arrival text and photos of the food station and a noted photo of Charlie. She managed her way through a reception desk and two secure buildings at a senior residence center.”
About: I grew up in a house full of animals and have been caring for dogs and cats ever since. I understand how stressful it is to leave your pet with someone new, so I make it my priority to follow their routines and keep them comfortable. My experience includes: - Senior pets who need slower-paced care and extra attention - Puppies and younger dogs who need training reinforcement and boundaries - Shy or anxious pets who take time to warm up - Cats with specific feeding schedules, litter preferences, or medical needs - Multi-pet households where each animal has different requirements I take this work seriously because I know what your pet means to you. When you book with me, you're not getting someone who's just going through the motions. You're getting someone who will care for your dog or cat the way they deserve. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which means I'm home most of the day. That gives me time to: - Take dogs on multiple walks or play sessions throughout the day - Keep cats on their normal feeding and playtime routines - Stay present for pets who need companionship or have separation anxiety I can adjust my availability based on your needs, whether that's overnight stays, drop-in visits, or regular walking. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home: - I follow your routines exactly—feeding times, walk routes, medication schedules, bedtime habits - I keep doors and gates secure, especially with escape-prone cats or anxious dogs - I send updates and photos so you know how things are going - I treat your home with respect and leave it the way I found it In my home: - Clean, pet-friendly space with secure doors and windows - Separate areas for pets who need their own space (especially important for cats) - Comfortable sleeping areas, fresh water, and plenty of playtime or downtime based on what they prefer When you trust me with your pet, I take that seriously. They get the same care, consistency, and attention I'd give my own. No exceptions.

“Brittany took care of Patches as if she were her own fur baby! Brittany went above and beyond when Patches was struggling due to my extended trip. When I returned home, Patches was very calm and content as a direct result of Brittany's care!”

“Margerita was great! She is clearly an animal lover! She was on time, took clear pictures of my two senior boys when they ate, and cleaned the cat box just like I requested (it fills up too fast to skip it, because kidney disease). She spent time hanging out so they got the human interaction that these two social cats crave. She has a very friendly and polite demeanor, and a flexible schedule that made it easy to come by at the times I needed her. I would hire her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was around 10 years old. I grew up with two Cane Corsos and a miniature poodle, so I’ve always been around both large and small dogs with completely different personalities and needs. I helped care for them daily by feeding, walking, bathing, grooming, playing with them, and making sure they felt comfortable and loved. Over the years, friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I = love getting to know each dog’s personality, whether they’re energetic and playful, shy and calm, or super affectionate. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and larger breeds, and I always try to match each pet’s routine so they feel as safe and comfortable as possible. I also know how important communication is for pet owners, so I love sending photo updates and making sure owners feel confident that their pets are being well cared for and getting lots of attention, love, and playtime while they’re away! I’m currently working part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for pets throughout the week. I’m generally available during mornings and afternoons after 2 PM on weekdays, and I have full availability on weekends for boarding, walks, playtime, and overnight care. Because I genuinely enjoy being around animals, I love making pet care part of my daily routine. I make sure every dog gets lots of attention, exercise, playtime, and care while helping them feel comfortable and at home! My home in Atwater is very dog friendly and made to be a safe, comfortable environment for pets to stay in. I have both a fenced front yard and fenced backyard, giving dogs plenty of secure outdoor space to play, relax, and get fresh air throughout the day. My home also has wood flooring throughout, which helps keep the space clean and comfortable for pets.
About: Animal lover to the fullest! I think Rover is a great way to get my animal fix as well as earn extra income. I am an excellent communicator and a genuine gentle spirit! I value Integrity, honesty and professionalism and will take excellent care of your Furry friends and family. For boarding I just need to know if your dog is kid friendly. I have my son who’s is 2 and a half, 5 of the seven days a week so most times that is a requirement however he absolutely loves dogs also and is very gentle with them. So when it’s a match that is another bonus for me and my son!! We have a very clean, organized, orderly and spacious home. I look forward to helping you and your family friend(s) in the future!
About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.
About: I’ve always been an animal person! I have always cared or taken care of animals ever since I can remember. From babysitting, feeding, or just potty breaks and some love ! Everything above. I am a stay at home mom so with that being said I am home all day and have all the time to love and care for your fur babies. I call it a FUR-cation :) I have a Frenchie named Memphis that is my baby and with me being able to animal sit he gets a friend with it. It’s a plus on both ends(:
“Kirsten is always professional, reliable, and kind. She never hesitates to communicate and ask questions if necessary. We have used her before for housesitting and this visit was drop in only. As always, she was wonderful and we know this because our dogs don't even get up when we get home. They're so chill after she leaves. It's a blessing to have her and feel that our pups are happy with her.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 457 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Hilmar-Irwin. 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 Hilmar-Irwin. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
