“I was so happy that Sara was able to take care of my elderly cats while I was away! Was worried about them, of course, but the minute I saw how she took care of my kitties I was incredibly impressed and knew I had chosen the right person. I trusted her with everything I asked, and she even had to clean up “surprises” from my boys. When I leave again I want to make sure that she is able (& willing) to do this again! Thank you for all you do…”
“Allison took great care of my cat, Maevis. She checked on her daily and sent a picture of her. I felt good knowing she was having a visit and being checked on. I hope to have her for any sittings in the future.”
“Anthony did amazing with drop-in visits for my bunny. Despite being new to caring for a bunny, he didn’t bat an eye to accept a request and help care for her over the holidays. He was super attentive to the unique care she needed. He is trustworthy, communicative, and punctual. He will be my go-to from now on for any pet needs in the future!”
“Monica was amazing . The dogs loved her. She is very reliable and I love that she sent me pictures and videos and full reports about what they did,eat and more. Definitely will use her again!!!”
“Alejandra took such great care of my Ollie bear—she was patient with his quirks and considerate of how the heat would affect him, as well! She was super communicative & took lots of photos of him. Will definitely book again :)”
About: For as long as I can remember, I have been around dogs and cats. Whether they are my own or friends', I have always been an animal lover. I have had numerous opportunities to take care of furry friends and love to do so, especially as I am currently a traveling graduate student. Over the years, my experience has ranged from daily feedings and active walks to creating a calm, safe environment for pets while their owners are away. From one animal lover to another, I value bringing a high level of responsibility, clear communication, and detail-oriented care to pet sitting. I deeply respect every animal's unique routine and make it a priority to treat your pets like my own, ensuring they receive plenty of love, attention, and exercise. You can always count on timely photo updates and total peace of mind knowing your best friend is in dependable hands. During the week, I am off by 3:30pm and have generally an open schedule during the weekends to provide care, play and walks of many sorts. I offer drop-in visits and house-sitting services exclusively in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and safe. With a highly dependable vehicle and strong time-management skills, you can count on me to always arrive on schedule. My top priority is to build trust with both you and your pet by providing dedicated, high-quality care, strictly following your routine, and keeping you updated every step of the way so you can have complete peace of mind while away.

About: Hi, I’m Wesley! If you’re looking for calm, focused, one-on-one care for your dog — you’ve found the right sitter. I only host one dog at a time, which means your pup gets my full attention, a peaceful environment, and zero chaos from multiple pets. I work from home full-time, so your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. Whether they love lounging nearby while I work, going for structured walks, or just being in a relaxed space, I tailor the day to their personality and routine. My home is best suited for: • Dogs who thrive in a quiet, low-stimulation • Pups who enjoy consistent structure and attentive care Because I only take one dog at a time, I’m able to maintain a predictable routine and keep things calm and stress-free. If your dog enjoys a peaceful home with lots of presence and individualized attention, we’ll likely be a great fit. **A Day in the Life of Your Pet with Me** When your pet stays with me, they’re treated like family. My day revolves around ensuring they’re happy, comfortable, and loved. Here’s what a typical day looks like: **Morning:** We start the day with a refreshing walk or some outdoor playtime to help your pet burn off energy and enjoy the fresh air. Afterward, I prepare their breakfast exactly as you specify, paying close attention to any dietary needs, allergies, or medications. **Midday:** Throughout the day, your pet gets my undivided attention. Whether it’s cuddle time on the couch, engaging in their favorite games, or simply being by their side as they nap, I make sure they’re never lonely. If your pet enjoys enrichment activities, I’ll plan fun and stimulating games to keep their minds sharp. **Afternoon:** Another walk or potty break ensures they stay comfortable and active. If they have specific training needs or routines, I’m happy to incorporate those into the day. **Evening:** Dinner is served on schedule, just the way your pet prefers it. We wind down with quiet time, more snuggles, or a relaxed stroll before bedtime to ensure they feel secure and ready to sleep peacefully. I truly care for every pet as if they were my own. I pay attention to their body language, moods, and behaviors to ensure they’re always comfortable and stress-free. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities, and I take pride in providing a safe, loving environment where they feel cherished and at home. When your pet stays with me, I want to make sure their care feels as seamless and personalized as possible. To provide the best experience, I like to learn all the important details about their: - **Meals**: Their feeding schedule, portion sizes, and any preferences or specific preparation instructions. - **Medications**: If they take any, I’ll ensure they’re administered exactly as prescribed, with careful attention to timing and dosage. - **Allergies**: I need to know about any allergies—food-related or otherwise—so I can avoid triggers and keep your pet safe. The more I know about your pet’s unique needs, the better I can provide the love and care they deserve!
“Always looking forward to story time when Stephanie takes care of our boys! She’s wonderful, trustworthy and always makes us laugh with the notes regarding each visit. 10/10 recommend”
About: I have owned dogs all my life and several kitty’s along with birds, fish and reptiles. I love them and take care of them just like I would family. I would enjoy taking your dog on walks around the neighborhood and playing ball or their favorite toy so they are able to get out and enjoy their walk and the outdoors. I have experience with all different sizes of dogs. My last dog was a Rottweiler. She crossed the rainbow bridge October 2017 ♥️ I now have 2 guinea pigs, a kitty & a Russian Dwarf Hamster that I love with all my heart. Besides them I also take care of my mother's Jack Russel when she's out of town and I have doggie-sat my neighbors dogs too. My schedule is flexible. Contact me for more information! Looking forward to meeting you and your furbaby (ies). My routine each morning starts off with feeding my cat and guinea pig, tidy up their area and I let my cat outside with me on my balcony. When I get home, my routine is the same. They have their corner of the house where their cage and litter are, their food, hay and some toys. I will give your pet his/her own eating space.
“So happy I found Amy. It took several days of researching and looking for someone for my puppy. I was very nervous but I am so glad I found her. Such a good hearted person and truly loves animals. She is so good with my Sasha.”
About: I am an animal lover and every summer I spent has been with all different types of animals from all over the world from spider monkeys in the amazon to sea lions and marine iguanas in the Galapagos to bull sharks in Fiji. My true passion is dogs and caring for them because they are so lovable and fun to play with. I’m available all year long and available at anytime. I will care for your pet like he or she is my own. My schedule is currently studying for the LSAT to prepare for law school applications this coming fall.I am mostly in the library and at home as well as visiting my grandfather in Mystic Pointe every week. I pray in the morning, work out right after and then study, work and read throughout the day. I have a French bulldog at home who is only friendly out of the home so I will only be able to provide house sitting services and any and all dog walking services :). I hope this is helpful.
About: I’ve been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have over 5 years of pet care experience. I previously lived on a ranch where dogs were bred, so I spent a lot of time around dogs of all ages, especially puppies. I’m comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve also had the privilege of caring for my own dog who lived to the age of 16, giving me personal experience with the love, patience, and attention senior dogs need. Whether it’s walking, feeding, playtime, puppy care, or simply providing companionship, I treat every dog like family. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away! I am currently working from home so I have all the time in the world to care for your pet. I have two pets of my own who love their mom so they need attention constantly. My pets would receive their walks early in the morning to get the day going and good vibes flowing. My pets are on an eating schedule so of course I would follow any schedule your pet is on! Check ins are super super important so that would be another priority daily to ensure you’re comfortable. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable looking after your pets, and I always strive to make them feel comfortable, happy, and loved! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their space and routines while making sure they have fresh food and water, plenty of attention, exercise, and a clean environment. As a pet owner myself with two cats, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your animals. I am attentive, responsible, and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own.

About: I've been taking care of dogs for friends, family, and myself since I was 13. I've had rescues, older dogs, dogs with separation anxiety, and puppies. I've done basic obedience training and potty training with small and medium sized dogs and I've also taken care of older foster dogs I'm currently in between jobs so I have plenty of free time to watch and play with your furry family. I'm home full time 7 days a week and I live with my two retired parents I have a fenced backyard so they can run and play to their hearts content without any outside worries. I don't currently have animals of my own. I have no problem with crating a dog if requested, but I prefer to let them roam and be in the same room as them to watch over and play with.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ives Estates
Kassadi was amazing with our puppy, Rio! We booked her last minute for a few days, and she was exceptionally communicative, sending regular updates and photos that gave us complete peace of mind. She handled all of Rio’s puppy energy and routine with so much care and attention. We will definitely be booking her again!
Emalie is wonderful, she checked in on Mr senior cat and gave her medication while I was traveling. We did a meet and greet first which was great and she kept me up to date with photos and messages which gave me peace of mind that my cat was well cared for while I was away. I would recommend Emalie to anyone!
Lola is wonderful, she watched my 16yo senior cat while I traveled out of town for work and made sure I was informed throughout the entire trip. My cat takes an oral medication twice per day so traveling can be stressful but I felt at ease and had peace of mind knowing that she was in good hands and well cared for. I would recommend Lola to anyone, thank you again!
Sara took the time to always make everything as clean and tidy as I want my pet to have. He’s not very sociable (18yo Cat) so she had to go hunting for him and took a picture every day. That made me feel like he was OK, eating and using the litter box. Thank you, Sara! Until next time (I’ve used Sara’s services before) as I definitely recommend her for taking good care of your beloved pets.
Amazing experience as always. Andrea is so patient and kind with our cats. We always know they are safe and loved when we’re away. She provides the very best care during each drop-in visit and her service never feels rushed. Also very detail oriented. Happy repeat customer. ❤️

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ives Estates is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $33 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 7,006 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ives Estates. 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 Ives Estates. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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 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.
