“Nicole took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. Not only did she walk and care for our dog daily, she communicated regularly and checked in whenever she had questions. She is personable, attentive to details, and a total natural when it comes to caring for pets. We would totally ask Nicole to care for our pet again and highly recommend her to other pet owners.”
“We are so thankful for Hannah! We haven’t even had our puppy a week and underestimated the ability to leave him on our work days, Hannah was able to come over a couple times throughout the day to take him out and play with him. So communicate and patient with me as a first time puppy parent.”
“Lissi was able to accommodate me on short notice. Upon meeting, she took her time to really get to know my dog, her preferences, how she plays, what treats/toys she likes, etc. Lissi also sent multiple photos and videos of Rumi and provided updates on her potties and even worked on teaching my dog new tricks! She went above and beyond and her love for dogs was very apparent :) Highly recommend to anyone looking for dog sitting/walking/boarding services!”
About: I’ve been with dog since I was very young and adopted mine own on 2020 July from a rescue center in Henry, CA. I’m so lucky to have him (Noodie) with us since then. He’s our youngest family member and definitely got spoiled. =) Just let me know in advance and I’ll try to accommodate. I am working from home so could be flexible. Pretty early morning and late afternoon and evening to avoid excessive heat. My Noodie has been spoiled for sure. He used to be having separation anxiety however after those past year confidence and trust we build among everyone in this family, he’s right now totally fine with stay home on his own.
“Jessica is an amazing dog sitter! She even got my little scardy chicken to come to her with her tail wagging! She shares alot of pictures and put my mommy heart at ease. I will 100% use her again!”
About: Caring for family pets since for the past twelve years, walking, feeding, bathing, and taking care of a variety of breeds of all different sizes I am currently working part time, so I have plenty of free time to fit your pet into my schedule. Weekdays and afternoons are best. I have a high fenced yard with a securely latching gate and plenty of play space, with a single friendly dog willing to keep your pet company
“Letting someone into your home take care of your oets is a nerve-racking experience. We are so grateful to have found Vy. She was very thorough on making sure she understood what our pets needs were before, even stopping by before the term started. She was a great communicator, letting us know every time she stopped by with photos and we felt like we were there real time in terms of updates. It really put our minds at ease. We’ll definitely be rebooking with her next time we head out of town!”
About: Patient & Attentive: I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and routines, ensuring they feel safe and relaxed in my care. • Deep Understanding of Needs: Having been a lifelong pet owner and professional sitter for 3+ years, I instinctively recognize subtle cues—whether it’s when they want to play, cuddle, or need a nap. • Experienced Medication Administration: From daily pills to injections, I’m trained and confident in giving medications accurately and on schedule, so you never have to worry. • Customized Care Plans: I adapt walks, playtime, feeding, and downtime to suit each animal’s energy level, health requirements, and behavior style. • Reliable & Trustworthy: Your home and pets are in safe hands—I’m punctual, communicative, and committed to providing updates so you can enjoy peace of mind. My schedule is flexible according to you! I can do any time and any day I am flexible and adjusting. If you need me for a specific time frame I can adjust my schedule to yours Personalized Attention: I learn each pet’s routines and preferences—meal times, favorite toys, and cuddle spots—to keep them comfortable and content. • Safe Exercise & Play: Walks and play sessions are tailored to your pet’s energy level and health needs, ensuring fun while preventing overexertion. • Medication & Special Needs: With experience administering pills, liquids, and injections, I follow vet‑approved instructions precisely and monitor for any side effects. • Calm, Patient Handling: I move at your pet’s pace, allowing shy or senior animals to warm up gradually and extroverted pets to burn off energy safely. • Regular Check‑Ins: I observe behavior, appetite, and activity levels closely—so even subtle changes are caught early and communicated to you.
About: I’m a new dog mom to a german shepherd mix puppy and am also caring for a maltese + yorkie mix. I’ve been around and taken care of dogs since I was little. I started dog sitting 5 years ago when my cousins or friends needed a helping hand! I am an expert at feeding, walking, and playing with furry friends. I currently end work at 4 pm so I can get to your furry friend by 4:30 till whenever you need. Weekends I am available all day. Currently have two dogs that are mainly inside the home. When they go to play in the backyard, there are fences and we watch them to make sure they are safe. I would follow all safety measures protocols when watching your pet in your home.
“Livio dropped by our house at exactly the time agreed and checked on our cat and dog. He cleaned the water fountain, cleaned up left over food and put new food. He did a great job, highly recommended.”
“I can’t recommend Cameron enough for pet care! He was incredibly responsible, gentle, and showed genuine care for my pet. My dog requires daily medication for her dry eye, and Cameron handled it perfectly. He gave her the prescribed medications as directed, and when I returned home, her eye was well-lubricated, and she was calm and content. It was clear she was at ease in his care, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for your pet, Cameron is the person to call!”
“I booked Sue for a last-minute trip, and she was quick to respond and took wonderful care of my cat, Oreo. He’s usually independent, but he absolutely adored Sue and would look forward to her visits! I’m so grateful for her care and would gladly have her watch Oreo anytime.”
About: I was recently accepted to Cornell University for veterinary school and have some time to spare for your fur babies before I leave in August! I worked one year for a nonprofit veterinary service called CAMP clinics and another year at an emergency and specialty medicine pet hospital. At home I own a sweet Labrador retriever named Luna and a sassy hamster named Davinci. I am comfortable with giving oral medications if your pet is able to take them in a treat without being restrained. ✨ New to Rover? Use code NATALV52479 for $20 off your first booking ✨ I am free until August, but will be going to Asia from April 14th-June 10th (with some weeks in May that I will be back) as a final trip before starting vet school. Besides those dates I am fully available to help care for your pet whenever convenient for you. I love taking my dog for a walk in the park or playing tug of war/fetch in the evenings. I have a very active dog and would love to play with yours! I understand that dogs may have certain anxieties regarding their surroundings or other people/animals and take great care to make sure they are comfortable and properly cared for.
About: I grew up in a neighborhood that had many animals, and I would help take care of them. I am friendly, and most animals are comfortable with me from the start. I have been volunteering at an animal shelter since February of this year. I'm not able to have pets in my current apartment and missed being around animals. Due to this, I decided to volunteer at the animal shelter. The animal shelter has taught me how to work with animals that have disabilities, elderly and puppies. I currently work in the legal field and would like to do something that makes me happy after a day in the office. I now am the stepmom to two loving, and beautiful cats named Momo and Saya.
About: I’m a passionate animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs and providing the personalized care they deserve. I’m patient, trustworthy, and compassionate, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, or cuddles, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. I can offer weekday walks starting early morning walks 6-8am afternoon walks between 12-2pm and evening walks 6-9pm. I am also available on the weekends and am flexible with your time preference. As each dog is different I know their care is different as well. Currently in my home I have a senior dog that requires medication 2 times a day and a 5month puppy who requires a lot of attention and patience. I understand the challenges and dedication it takes to take care of a pet.
About: Owning two dogs who are both 10, I’ve had lots of hands on experience taking care of dogs of any age. I have experience with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and most importantly I want every dog I take care of to feel loved! I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time to take care of your puppies! I’m available most weekdays and weekends, so I have a super flexible schedule. I always prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine while caring for them in their own home. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, and any house rules to help keep your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, keep the home clean and tidy, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same care and respect as I would my own.
About: Hi, I’m Bella! I’m a 19-year-old college student, and I have loved animals my entire life. Over the past six years, I’ve provided dedicated pet sitting and dog walking for friends, family, and neighbors. I also have 3 sweet cats of my own, so I'm completely comfortable managing multi-pet routines, giving medications, or just providing plenty of cozy cuddle time. Making sure your pets feel safe, loved, and completely at home is my absolute top priority. I’d love to meet you and your fur babies, let’s chat! I’m currently on summer break with open availability—including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m flexible, reliable, and happy to accommodate last-minute requests or custom schedules. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I’m here when you need me! I prior my animals comforts and routines before my own. They are loved very much. I will ensure your pets will feel comfortable, loved, and safe while staying in your home. I will maintain their routine with consistent feeding times, walks, and play sessions. They will be loved and cared for like they are my own.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - La Palma
We are very lucky to have found Lissi to help watch our fur baby when we are away. Our fur baby is our family, and it is very hard for us to leave her alone, yet Lissi made it easy for us to be able to enjoy our time off knowing our baby is taken care of. She is very great with communicating, very friendly, and respectful. You can tell she cares a lot about animals, and that gives us a peace of mind.
Jennifer was kind, caring, and compassionate. She treated sunny with care and love. In addition, she gave us daily updates on how sunny was doing. I would highly recommend her to any pet owner. Sunny is usually afraid of strangers, but she immediately warmed up to Jennifer . Jennifer was asked to administer a complicated set of instructions for care of sunny, including handling medication and specific food. She did this very well and we are well pleased with her.
Hana took excellent care of my dog while I was away for four days. She was always punctual, followed all feeding and care instructions carefully, and made sure my dog got regular walks and attention. She provided prompt updates and was very responsive whenever I had questions. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my pet was in such capable and caring hands. I would definitely use her services again.
We’ve used Michelle twice now, and she has taken great care of our two cats both times, including a week-long stay recently. She is responsible, dependable, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We appreciated knowing our cats were being well cared for and wouldn’t hesitate to use her again in the future
Livio and Chen took great care of our cat Micky this past week! They were super communicative and kept us updated throughout with lots of pix and videos of Micky. They also brought to our attention a potential concern to follow up on which we really appreciate!
This is my second time booking with Asmita to take care of my two cats, and once again, she provided amazing service. She is very easy to work with, attentive, and always made sure my cats were well taken care of. She regularly refilled their water, followed all of my requests and instructions, and even helped take care of my mail and packages, which I truly appreciated. What I appreciated the most was the constant updates through pictures and videos, which gave me peace of mind while traveling and being away from my cats. Most importantly, she spent quality time with them and made them feel comfortable and cared for. I will definitely continue working with Asmita whenever I travel, and her service has always been 100%.
Evan was absolutely wonderful with Morrie! From the start, he was communicative, reliable, and clearly a true animal lover. Morrie came home happy and relaxed, which tells me everything I need to know. Evan sent updates that gave me real peace of mind while I was away. I never had to wonder how things were going. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like their own, Evan is your person. We’ll definitely be booking again!
Dianne has been an incredible help with my dog! She is consistently punctual, highly responsive, and communicates timely throughout the process. Most importantly, she brings a fantastic positive energy that my four-legged friends absolutely love. She is incredibly easy to work with, and we are so pleased to have her support. I would highly recommend Dianne to anyone looking for a reliable and caring walker!
Selena did a great job taking care of my dog, BB. Before coming over, she asked about his routine, personality, and my preferences, which immediately made me feel comfortable leaving him with her. She made sure BB was fed, comfortable, and not lonely, and she actually spent time playing with him in the backyard and giving him attention instead of rushing through the visit. I felt really at ease trusting Selena in our home (which means a lot with all the horror stories you hear). She sent updates and plenty of photos, and BB looked happy and relaxed the whole time. She’s kind, reliable, and easy to communicate with—I’d definitely book her again! 🐶✨

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in La Palma on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 21,360 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across La Palma. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a La Palma stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 La Palma. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
