About: I’ve had dogs throughout my whole life and even trained the most recent one that we’ve had in my home. I love dogs, cats, or any animal! Currently I can take care of your pets any day besides on Sundays since I can be very busy that day, though I might be able to stop by a few days throughout the day When I’m taking care of your furry friend I’ll take them for walks, play with them, and if they’re a puppy I can even help train them if you’d like!

About: I’ve taken care of animals since before I could walk! I’ve trained my own puppy and taken care of senior dogs. I have patience and love for animals that sets me apart! I am currently a teacher looking for a summer job, which means my schedule is very open throughout the summer months! I am available for daytime visits, walks, feedings, and pet care throughout the week. While I prefer weekdays, I am flexible and may be available on weekends when needed. I am a reliable and trustworthy person who will treat your home, dog, or cat with the same care, respect, and love that I would give my own pets. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else's care, and I strive to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free experience.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs pretty much my entire life. I can’t help but love on dogs. They have so much to offer and live so deeply. I work full time during the week. Once I’m home and on weekends I am all about loving on my own Willow! We love to play and go for walks as much as possible. Usually by bedtime we are both exhausted. I do not have a fenced yard but we live in a quiet development. Since we are in the back it is safe. Dogs can have free roam of the house if they are potty trained. We do have small area sectioned off for our own pup that we can use if not potty trained. Our own pup is crated trained and in her crate when we aren’t there as well as at night. We prefer the same.

About: I have cared for animals the majority of my life. In a personal as well as professional capacity. Previously, I worked for a dog daycare/boarding facility in northern Virginia which allowed me to work with dogs of different sizes and temperament. I have volunteered on and off over the years at various shelters and ranches. I currently have a certificate of completion to be a Veterinary Assistant and am looking forward to continuing my education in animal care. I work full time from home which allows me the freedom to care for my own fur babies without issue. My evenings and weekends leave me open to care for your fur babies! I have a large non-fenced backyard with a 100’ dog lead. I do supervise while my dog is on the lead to ensure their safety.

About: I was born and raised in Ukraine. My parents had a big house with big backyard, so we always had dogs and cats. Just like us, animals have their characters, they also get sick and do get old and more tender and fragile. Since I was a child I helped with care, feeding and sometimes even births of our animals. That taught me that just loving them is not enough! Care, compassion and respect are fundamental, when you own them or help someone with their furry babies! I am a responsible and caring person. Feeding, cleaning, playing, talking and sometimes listening to them, it’s all part of it! Give me a chance to become your pet’s friend. I’ll cherish them as my own! :) I have three human children and while they are in school, I’m all yours! Every day starting 9 am till 3 pm I can be a friend to your cat or dog. :) I have a fenced backyard that can easily accommodate 3 to 4 dogs! Am planing to get a crate, just in case it might be needed.

About: Hi I’m Kali! I’ve had dogs all my life, I’ve had all different types of dogs so I have experience with many breeds and sizes. I don’t work long hours during the week and am free on the weekends, so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog. I’ve volunteered at my local animal shelter in the past, and have dog/house sat multiple times. I’ve given doggie baths, clipped nails, given medicine, even trimmed dogs fur and brushed their teeth. I have a large back yard, live in a great neighborhood for walking, and live down the road from a park. I also have extra supplies for dogs to help care for them, I would love to help take care of your dog!

About: I have five cats at home, each of whom I’ve raised since they were between 0–5 months old, and they truly are my whole world! I’ve also lived with and cared for dogs of all sizes over the years, from tiny Maltese to large Shepskies. In college, I even cared for two adorable hamsters. Whether your pet is big or small, energetic or shy, I’m passionate about providing loving, reliable care and building trust with every furry friend I meet. I understand how important it is to know your pet is in good hands, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own💕 I work as a scientist during the day, 3 days in office and 2 at home. I can fit walks/drop-ins into my lunch breaks at home and after work I can come by to check on or walk your furry loved one! My weekend availability is very open as well. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I know every pet has their own personality and preferences, so I’ll take the time to learn their routine and follow your instructions closely. Whether it’s a walk, playtime, feeding, medications, or just some extra cuddles, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, will leave everything just as I found it, and will always make sure doors, gates, and windows are secure.

“Katie gave my one cat a pill every day and scooped the litter box while we were away. She came over before we left to go over instructions and said she would message us if there were any issues. We came back to nice clean litter boxes, and we did not get any messages so I’m assuming she was good giving the medication! Thanks Katie!”

About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language. Most communication is non-verbal and I definitely pay attention and make sure I treat every furry friend with respect and love. Dogs have feelings and like to socialize in healthy environments and that is what they will get with me as your dog sitter and / or dog walker. I will take your dog walking, I will check-in on your dog and play ball or tug of war with them, if that is what they like to do, I will provide water refills and food refills, even mix food upon request and follow instructions specific to your dog's need. I like to take dogs to the park, go jogging with dogs, belly rubs, hugs and playful affection. I like making dogs feel important, so they know they matter. This way, they feel happy and fulfilled while you are working or away on vacation, or away for that day or moment running errands. I am currently an entrepreneur. Trying to start my own pet business. Served, previously in the United States Air Force. Used to have an emotional support dog for 14 years who is no longer with us due to old age and health problems. That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence. My house is dog proof to keep all fur babies safe and happy, but there are always other options available to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Depending on the service you hire me for pertaining to your pet.

About: I have lifelong experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including both dogs and cats of all ages. My background includes everything from puppy care and training support to senior cat care with special attention to comfort and routine. As a current dog and cat owner, I understand the importance of reliable, compassionate care and maintaining consistency with each pet's needs. My goal is to provide dependable service and ensure every pet feels secure and well-cared for in their owner's absence. My schedule is currently very flexible, so I can care for your pets at the time that suits them (and you) best and maintains their routine. When caring for pets in a client's home, I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routine. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication, and preferred walking routes. I take time to build trust with each pet, keeping their environment calm and familiar. I also maintain clear communication with owners, providing regular updates and photos for peace of mind. My goal is to ensure every pet feels secure and cared for, and that you feel confident they're in good hands while you're away.

Victoria was an excellent dog sitter. She was friendly, prompt, and most importantly, our dog Rosie absolutely loved her—which isn’t always the case. While we were away, she sent regular photo updates that gave us real peace of mind knowing Rosie was happy and well cared for. Victoria truly went above and beyond, bringing in our trash cans from the curb since we left on trash day, taking Rosie on walks, and even watering our garden. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Malaga

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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
