Amy is awesome. I am so thankful to have had Amy to care for my 16 year old Sadie which allowed me to attend my daughter's wedding stress free. I was able to relax and be present in each moment because I knew Sadie was home living her best life. I received updates and photos of Sadie from Amy confirming that hiring Amy was the perfect solution. I highly recommend Amy to anyone needing care for their pet.

About: I'm a lifelong dog lover with plenty of experience caring for family pets and neighbors' dogs, often stepping in as a trusted pet sitter when they’re away. Over the years, I’ve learned how to handle different breeds and temperaments with patience and care, always making sure each dog feels comfortable and safe in my home. I also have a well-trained dog of my own, who’s friendly and well-behaved, however, when I watch other dogs, they’ll have the house to themselves on occasion, (as he frequently spends time visiting his grandma!), giving them space to relax without the stress of interacting with a new animal. My goal is always to provide a calm, loving environment where your dog feels right at home. I’m currently working freelance and have the flexibility to watch your pet as needed during the week and weekend. With advanced notice, I am able to provide boarding/overnight services. My home offers a clean, open floor plan with plenty of space for your dog to relax and explore comfortably. There’s an enclosed outdoor patio for fresh air and sun, along with two large dog beds topped with clean sheets to help your pup feel right at home. I also provide natural treats as a little extra touch to keep them happy and satisfied. When your pet is staying with me, they’ll be my top priority. I’m committed to giving them my full attention, care, and affection during their visit.

About: I have been caring for pets since I was little. A dog owner for most of my life but now I have 1 cat as well. I love caring for animals and helping people. I will keep your pet happy, safe, active, and healthy. Hi! I’m Matt, a full-time special education teacher and lifelong animal lover. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pet, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I have a fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to play, along with a friendly chocolate Lab who loves making new friends. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, walking, medication, and daily routines. As a teacher, I’m patient, dependable, attentive, and used to adapting to individual needs. During your pet’s stay, you can expect plenty of attention, walks, games of fetch, backyard time, and, of course, lots of belly rubs. I’m also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m generally available after school, evenings, weekends, and during many school breaks. Every pet is different, so please let me know about their personality, routine, or any special requests ahead of time. I’ll do my best to make their time with me feel like a home away from home! 🐾 I have a fenced in backyard and a very friendly chocolate lab. He loves other animals! Any special requests you may have just let me know!

Mike did a great job while we were away. More than living up to our expectations, he made visits to our home twice a day right on schedule while keeping us up to speed in real time through video and pictures. Our dog is typically not too friendly with strangers under any circumstances, but Mike proved differently and our dog wound up showing genuine affinity with its caretaker. We highly recommend him and wouldn't hesitate to use him again in the future.

Lisa is first and foremost an amazing friendly and professional pet sitter! When my cats and I met her to go over instructions during our meet and greet, I knew my cats were going to be in great and caring hands. Lisa took an interest in my cats likes and dislikes, took notes on the particularity of their feeding and routines, and asked pertinent questions to better understand their needs. The visit updates and photos were great and made me feel at ease being away from them, and I came home to happy cats that were well cared for and would not hesitate to ask Lisa to watch over them again!

About: I’m on Rover to help you out with any / all your pets needs while you’re away! I work full time as a behaviorist in a public school. I don’t dog train, but I am familiar with any techniques that you may need for your pup! I have 3 dogs and 3 cats of my own. I have experience with all breeds! All mutts and senior pups are welcome. I also have experience administering medication to dogs. All dogs of breeds and age deserve attention and love. I’d love it if you let me love your pets as if they are my own too! Thank you for reading this. I am able to work with the families in terms of what they need. My calendar may not always reflect accurately as my times with my full-time job (human) clients do fluctuate. If it is blocked off it means I am 100% unavailable. I don’t recommend myself in terms of full-on puppy training and 24/7 puppy care due to my schedule but I am versed in the training techniques due to my career. I am available weekends for extra care and staying in your home full time. My pets are well loved and taken care of while I care for others. I will never be able to host in my home, so please consider this! I offer in home care, overnight, daily walks, and check ins. Animals will not be hosted in my home due to a senior dog I have who is on medication. For those reasons, home sitting is only available in terms of long care. I have done walks, trips to stores, parks, yard play, and car trips with fur babies for daily drop ins, walks, or overnight stays!

About: I have experience working as a full-time dogwalker and pet care provider for a local company, Let's Play Ruff, between 2019 and 2022. I'm currently a full-time employee at a daycare, but I'm looking for some side work. I have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, administering medication, and basic dog training. I have a lot of practice with dog walking, and I am familiar with various handling techniques. I am a full-time employee at a daycare, but have a bit more flexibility due to the summer. My daycare isn't open on weekends, so I am fully available. Experienced pet care provider with trusted experience in childcare, pet care, dog walking, and house-sitting. Recognized for reliability and professionalism, I have maintained a loyal client base through strong relationships and exceptional care. I understand it can be scary to let strangers into your house and care for your pets, but I hope my references, background, and experience will give you confidence in me.

I felt very secure for my cats being with them. They were very flexible to our cat's needs. They were a pleasure to work with from the very beginning. Lots of wonderful pictures. Our cats enjoyed their time with them and bonded very early, which was quite surprising, which goes to say how warm and friendly Lexi&Prashant are. Will definitely rebook!

About: With over 30 years of hands-on experience, I bring a lifetime of love and dedication to every animal I care for. From raising blue ribbon show dogs to nurturing pets with special needs, I’ve seen it all—and loved them all. I’m comfortable with animals of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My deep empathy and understanding of animal behavior ensure your pet receives not just care, but comfort and connection. Whether it's a leisurely walk, a wellness check-in, or specialized support, your furry (or otherwise!) family is in gentle, experienced hands. I am a middle school and high school ESL teacher, which gives me a lot of flexibility over the summer to take care of furry friends! As our yard is not fenced in, and we have two cats of our own inside, caring for pets in my own home is sadly not an option. However I'm happy to come over as frequently as needed for walks and check-ins

Bethany was amazing. She was excellent at communication, and sending plenty of photos while we were away. If she had questions, she always asked and clarified. We agreed to have her boyfriend assist on some days- and our dogs seemed to love him just as much as they loved her! Not everyone can handle a Great Dane and German Shepherd as well as she did :) 100% rebooking with her, and recommending her to family/friends in the area!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Leonardo on Rover is $25.53 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 26,023 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Leonardo. 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 Leonardo 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 Leonardo. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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.
