About: I am a college student trying to make a little extra money by taking care of some awesome dogs. I helped take care of two dogs growing up. I had an English bulldog for 11 years and I had another dog that is a mix of a lot of breeds that is now 7. I now have my own dog named Obi who is a poodle and is 9 months old. I have enjoyed helping train and care for all of them. I currently work part time doing odd jobs so I have a flexible schedule and am available for drop in visits plus do house sittings. Morning and late afternoon drop in visits would be the best. I keep my dog Obi well cared for and make sure to give him exercise and plenty of love. I am willing to feed them, give them water, play with them, and take them for walks just like I do my own dogs.
“Olivia gives us great peace of mind when we travel. She's utterly reliable, arriving on time and sending pictures every day. Our shy cat warmed right up to her and was happy and healthy when we got home. Olivia is a natural animal person.”


About: I have been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! Growing up, my family always had dogs, and as I got older, my passion for animals continued to grow. I currently own a dog grooming business and have been grooming for the past 3 years, giving me extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Over the years, I have owned and cared for horses, cattle, goats, poultry, pigs, dogs, and cats. I also breed Australian Shepherds, which has given me extensive knowledge of animal behavior, care, and daily needs. I am comfortable administering medications and injections and can provide personalized care tailored to your pet’s specific needs. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for every pet while giving owners peace of mind knowing their pets are receiving quality care and attention. I am readily available to care for your pet and can accommodate to almost any schedule. I currently run my own business as a dog groomer so I have a fairly flexible schedule to maximize the time I can spend with your pet. I will never put your pet in a situation where they feel uncomfortable as I want them to feel safe and relaxed as well as have fun while they are in my care. I am able to provide frequent updates of your pet.

About: My first pet sitting job was of 2 Boston Terriers at 9, since then I’ve cared for dogs, cats, horses, ducks, chickens, donkey, etc! I have been called a horse whisperer and my special talent in life is that I can get any introverted, sad, scared, animal to come out of it’s shell and feel at ease. I have taken care of farm animals in Nova Scotia, I’ve dog sat in Sweden, I’ve taken care of animals in CA, and I just love animals in general. I am extremely flexible, I work from home and have a sweet dog of my own who is playful and gentle with other animals. I, my husband or even our family as a whole take care of our animals first thing in the morning and at night, and I take time throughout the day to give them love and attention. I am home most of the time, I have lots of space to take your dog out to play (set up like a park but not fenced in, I can take them on a leash as needed) I have a kennel if you need or can set up yours. If you have a cat, my dog is used to them, though she does have an energetic greeting but we can separate them. I’m also happy to come visit your darlings at their home and make them feel comforted and ease. I’m one of those crazy animal ladies who likes to talk to animals, so I’ll soothe them and let them know you’ll be home soon!

The way I care for pets in my home or a client's home depends on the specific service being provided. Here are a few scenarios: In the client's home: Pet Sitting: When providing pet sitting services at a client's home, I make sure to replicate the pet's daily routine as closely as possible. This includes feeding them according to their usual schedule, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, taking dogs for walks, and engaging in playtime or exercise based on their specific needs. I also offer companionship and affection to help reduce any separation anxiety they may experience. Drop-in Visits: During drop-in visits, I visit the client's home at scheduled times to check on their pets. I ensure they have food and water, clean litter boxes, let dogs out for bathroom breaks, and spend quality time with them, offering play and affection. Dog Walking: For dog walking services, I take the dogs on stimulating walks to provide exercise, mental stimulation, and an opportunity for bathroom breaks. I follow any instructions regarding route preferences, leash handling, or specific behavioral considerations. Regardless of the service provided, the well-being, safety, and happiness of the pets are my top priorities. I strive to create a comfortable and nurturing environment, maintain their regular routines, and shower them with love and attention, just as their owners would.
About: I’ve always had dogs ever since I’ve grown up. Any type of dog I love to be around. I’ve dog sat for friends and family for years. I currently have my own window cleaning business. So my schedule is pretty flexible and I decide my hours for the most part. I will have break times in between jobs to be able to care for pets. I can care for your dog however is needed. If they need to be let out in the back yard with a fence I can do that I can also sit outside and play with them and check on them while they get some time outside. I can do whatever is best for your dog.

As of July 2026, there are 659 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Lathrop. 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 Lathrop 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.

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.
