About: I have extensive experience taking care of dogs and cats. I've been taking care of pets in a house-sitting context for the past 16 years. I am extremely responsible and caring and will always put your dogs/cats/pets first. I love spending time with animals and I am happy to follow your instructions very carefully in order to provide the best possible care for your pet! I have experience caring for dogs with lots of energy and the need for long walks/park visits and I really enjoy taking them on these adventures! I have a special relationship with cats, where I am able to communicate well with them and befriend them easily. I am also great with plant care and keeping the house clean and in order. My schedule is flexible. I often work from home. I am a massage therapist as well so I often have lots of breaks where I can spend time with/check on your pet! I cannot take pets in my home at this time but I am happy to come to or stay in your home. My first priority is caring for the animals and making sure they are getting a lot of attention and have their needs for food/walks/play/cuddles met. I also am very clean and respectful in others' homes and will make sure that the space is well-cared for.

About: I am a certified dog and cat lover (I have had both as pets over the years). I've cared for animals of all ages, temperaments and breeds in my many years of pet sitting with love and affection. Currently I am house/pet sitting in New Mexico as I decide if I am relocating back. Available Nov 8 to 18th as well as after Dec 13th 2026 I had a Great Dane Weimeraner mix for 12 years so I am comfortable with large dogs. I have dog /cat/ house sat for 24 years as well as being hired professionally to care take properties on the island of Hawaii, in Portland,Oregon, Los Angeles, Florida and New Mexico (People trust me to take care of their luxury properties and beloved animals!) I'm a great communicator, neat, clean responsible mature Female artist. My grandfather was a veterinarian in Greenwich Village and I'd visit him in his office as a kid. I was in AWE of what he did. He sent a duck home with my Mom one time and there is a pic of me in the bath with a duck at age 5. I worked in a holistic vet's office in LA as an all around assistant, caring for people's pets post surgery, walking lots and lots of dogs, assisting with minor surgical procedures, welcoming people and pets into the office. I am comfortable giving medicine, walking your dog, playing with your cat, treating your home as if it were my own. I'd love to be on your rover roster as someone you can count on to help you with your beloved pet! I'm a full time artist (and budding author) with a home office and studio in old NE neighborhood of St. Pete. My hours are my own so I am extremely flexible to accommodate you and your pet's needs. Afternoons and early evening are ideal times for me but I am happy to include mornings as well. Whatever is needed! I've studied many metaphysical modalities and am extremely tuned in to the energy of animals. I swam with wild dolphins on Hawaii for 30 years and "talk" animal. I will be happy to care for your pet in your home. Currently I am unable to host animals where I am staying. I will exercise, feed and spend time with your critters in your absence and follow your instructions for their care.

“Lisa took such great care of our cats Piper and Troy! We started with a meet and greet where we went over what care they needed. She was very responsive and sent the most detailed summary of her visits. It really put us at ease during our vacation! We plan to rebook Lisa in the future for any trips we have and would recommend her to others!”

“We weren’t sure about getting a dog sitter because our dog has never been alone with a stranger before and she can get antsy when she’s alone (high energy German shepherd/Basset Hound mix). However, her and Annie became best friends by the time we got back. We ended up booking her for the next night too and would’ve had her watch our dog for the whole stay if we could! Additionally, Annie made sure to go above and beyond, helping us modify the price because this app can be confusing with that. Whenever we come back we’re sure to book her again!”

About: I traveled in a van for many years and before I got Richard, I cared for over twenty dogs of all sizes and temperaments all over the country. I still travel by van and offer in-home pet sitting anywhere around the American West. When I lived in Tucson, I volunteered at the shelter and fostered dogs. I will work with the schedule and routines that your dog is used to so they feel safe and secure while you’re away. I’m also an avid hiker and would love to take your pups with me on outdoor adventures if they are up for it. Also happy to take short, gentle walks. I take excellent care of the spaces where I pet sit. I will clean before I leave and will respect your privacy or any of your preferences that we discuss ahead of time.

About: Hello! My name is Kara. I work from home so I have flexible hours to take care of your pupper. I can't have a dog where I live, but as a dog-lover, I so enjoy getting the opportunity to care for other people's pets. I've watched big and small dogs from beagles and french bull dogs to greyhounds, and great pyrenees. I have experience with old dogs, puppies, and everything I between. I can administer medicine as well. I'm happy to provide references from past dog sitting experiences. I'm looking forward to meeting you and you doggo. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions at all. I work from home, so caring for dogs helps me get away from my desk and outside. My ideal scenario is staying with a dog longer term (a week or more) so I can establish a relationship with a pup and get on their schedule. I am great at fitting into your dog’s routine and your home’s specific environment. Happy to accommodate any rules you have for where your dog can and can’t go, and happy to take advantage of parks, trails, yard space etc. Near your home. Also happy to take your dog on longer hikes if appropriate.

About: Just an FYI we can only sit for dogs that are 30 lbs or smaller, due to HOA rules in our condo complex. I have had and cared for a dog most of my life. I have never been dog sitting on Rover for a couple of years now, and have enjoyed it immensely. I love having dogs around. I am a stay at home mom, who is home a majority of the day. Russell, my husband, would also be caring for your dog, and he's great with dogs. We would love to have your pup over for a visit, while you are out of town. If you have any question, please feel free to ask. I do have a 4 year old son. He is great with dogs/pets. He used to dogs being around.We had a dog for his whole life. Unfortunately, our Charlie dog passed away last May. He was 11/12 years old. I am a stay at home mom, with a bookkeeping freelance business, so I am home most of the day. When I do work, my husband is usually home, except on Tuesdays. I have a 4 year old also, so I do have to take him and pick him up from preschool. We live in an apartment. We go outside often, and have no problems take dogs out. Our apartment is clean and tidy. I am good at following directions that may be given to care for you pup.

“This was my first time booking with Jessica, but won’t be my last! She loved on Rocky and treated him like her own. I loved the updates and pictures I got each time she stopped for a visit. And the best part is she went above and beyond and swept my floor and cleaned up the dog hair before I got home. Unnecessary but so much appreciated!”

About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for over 9 years and absolutely adore being around them. I can work on basic trainings for puppies, play hard with them, or give them the long walk they need. For senior dogs, I love to give them all the snuggles and pets they need :) seeing them happy makes me happy. Im currently working part time and have a very flexible work schedule, leaving plenty of time to let your dog out, play, or walk your pup during weekdays. Safety is huge when it comes to me watching your pup. Depending on your dog and safety protocols, I will follow them strictly (only allowed in a fenced yard, always leashed on a walk, etc).

“Becca was an excellent sitter in every way! I received detailed updates and my cat had everything she needed while I was away. Becca went above and beyond by becoming one of the first people my cat doesn’t hide from- which was astonishing. All that I was hoping for was to make sure she had water and assumed that she would just hide under the bed. Instead, I came home to a very happy little girl, who really wanted me to know she had made a new friend. Highly recommended!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have had 3 of them myself. I currently have a 93 pound, 8 year old Pyrenees mix.

I am available Monday through Saturday. I am located in Agua Fria and have reliable transportation. I have a full acre in Agua Fria and a fenced yard for both my dog and cat.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - La Loma

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.
