About: I volunteer at the Stockton Animal Shelter. Also, I have a Pomeranian chihuahua mix so I’m used to smaller animals. My dog is 14-16 so he’s very old and is becoming more immobile and blind. I’m used to feeding him and helping him around the house. I’m currently working part time so most I’m completely free on the weekend as well as Monday and Tuesday. Also I have plenty of time on Thursday as a half day. I’m very respectful in others space. I will be very attentive to the rules that you lay out because you know your pet best
“Daniella did a great job watching our Goldendoodle while we were on vacation. After reading her reviews, I decided Daniella was a great fit for my anxious dog. Our first time booking with rover and overall it was an easy and stress free experience with Daniella.. She checked in on our dog once a day- She was always on time, communicated when needed, sent photos and followed our direction perfectly. We will be booking her again!”

I am currently working full time and trying to help some furry friends on my days off. Hopeful to expands my hours of availability overtime. I know to listen to a dogs body language for what they do/dont like. Knowing when to remove the pet from a risky situation/bad environment. I would also follow all directions given to me regarding a clients pet. Helping in any way that I can.
“Maya was great during the drop-in visits and very flexible! This was my first time opting for drop-ins and I was hesitant because I usually prefer having my babies stay with someone. But, they get nervous traveling and I thought they might be more comfortable at home and she really did help them come out of their shell. Looking forward to rebooking with Maya!”
About: I love animals and I love being of service to dog owners who want peace of mind when leaving their pup for the day week or month! I am a full time dog trainer, the only thing I am currently doing is training and caring for dogs full time all day every day. I have a fenced backyard, and I will be watching your pup every moment of the day to ensure their safety. As safety is my number one priority.

Big or small, old or young it doesn’t matter! I can accommodate to your pets needs such as pills/medications, eye or ear drops. I am not working a job at the moment so I will be able to take care of your animal at anytime of the day that is needed! I can accommodate to any of your pets needs I want them to feel comfortable! I pay attention to detail and will keep them safe.
“Celestine did a great job taking care of my cat! She went above and beyond. I was very pleased to see how well things went with the Rover check ins/cards and with returning to find that my cat was perfectly okay. Lastly, I just wanted to say she was very friendly to work with, followed the instructions well, and knows how to take care of cats very well. I would highly recommend her services.”
“Raul took great care of our dog Buddy. Raul boarded our dog for almost a month in his home. He sent daily updates, photos and videos. Buddy was well taken care of and enjoyed his walks around the neighborhood. I give Raul a great big thumbs up! ?”
About: I’ve been caring for pets as long as i can remember! I actively volunteer at animal shelters where I gained TONS of hands-on experience caring for dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats with different personalities, energies, and illnesses. I have experience with animals of all temperaments and believe no pet should be excluded just because they are more reactive or nervous than other pets everyone deserves lots of love and attention:) I have a dog park right next to my house and would love to utilize it to make your dogs day!! I also have basic training skills and would love to teach your dogs some new tricks :) I currently work at home so I have more than enough time to dedicate to the pets in my care. I’m available for long enriching walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and cozy overnight stays. I’m flexible with scheduling and take last minute bookings🫶🏼 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I want you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is getting genuine attention, patience, and affection—not just a quick check-in. I’m attentive during walks and playtime, make sure pets are supervised, and always keep doors, gates, and leashes secure. When caring for pets in their home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own and make sure everything is left clean and secure. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is safe and being well cared for.
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve had experience with both small and large dogs, and I understand that every pup has their own personality, routine, and needs. From energetic playtime and long walks to cuddles, feeding, and simply keeping them company, I genuinely enjoy making dogs feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I treat every dog as I would my own—with patience, attention, and plenty of love! I work remotely, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to provide attentive care throughout the day. I can easily work visits, walks, playtime, and check-ins into my schedule, and I have the flexibility to head over and spend time with your pup when they need it. My goal is to make pet care convenient for you while ensuring your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and adjust the pace to their needs. For drop-ins, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, water, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any other care. I treat your home with respect, ensure everything is secure when I leave, and provide photos and updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: Ive had all sorts of animals surrounding me my whole life and family and friends trust me to watch over them when they are away, ill always watch over a furry friend! I have an open schedule, attending school only twice a week for just 2 hours most my days are free. Pet care is a perfect fit for my schedule! I care for my pets and anyone else’s with the most amount of love possible. From running and playing yo laying and relaxing, I love being around an animal.
About: I have been an animal lover since as young as I could remember. I can provide your furbaby with a loving home away from home. I have experience of 4 years fostering with local rescues and the Stockton Animal shelter. I primarily have worked with cats and kittens ranging from 4 weeks to adults cats. I also have a cat of my own, who loves the company of other cats and kittens. In my home there is a dedicated space to play and have access to a cat tower that overlooks a bird feeder for bird watching - this is an HUGE hit with my own furbaby. This room also is quiet and provides a calm and secure room for furbabies that may be a bit more on the skiddish and shy side. Ensuring that your pet is comfortable and safe is my biggest concern. I am second grade teacher and while the some days are longer than most, I will have plenty of time to dedicate to your fur baby! I have a cat of my own and playtime is an important part of our day. I will be sure to give your baby plenty of pets and cuddles. Ensuring that your furbaby is stress free and safe are my #1 concerns. You furbaby, will be able to roam freely and explore my home as if it is their own, unless you prefer otherwise. I also have an office space that doubles as a room dedicated to my cat that is filled with toys for enrichment!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
