“Amanda did an amazing job caring for my dog while I was away. She was attentive, responsible, and clearly love animals. I appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind. My dog warmed up to her quickly, which says a lot. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet caregiver.”
“Caitlin took excellent care of our cats and dog while we were away and kept us updated the whole time! She gave some extra love to our anxious kitty and made some adjustments to make sure she was eating enough, too. I'd highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Dorothy did her usual fantastic job of taking care of my 14 year old male tabby. Despite the fact that he has a personality similar to Garfield, she has managed to bond with him over the last few times she has cared for him! He had been sick and not eating just a week or two before our recent trip. I was very worried about leaving him. Dorothy sent me detailed updates regarding his appetite and behavior with each visit. This was very reassuring!! Dorothy is awesome!”
“Thomas is always on time, great with communicating, and takes lots of pictures. I’ve used him multiple times and plan to continue using his service! He’s great with my cats and my dog”
“Valerie is awesome, she’s very attentive and knowledgeable about dogs. Highly recommend her. She sent us pictures and even went so far as to observe their bowl movements to see how their health was while we were gone. I will be using her in the future whenever we travel!”
“Mary was absolutely amazing! She made sure to make our dog feel so comfortable and loved. She always made sure to do everything we requested so that nothing in our dog’s routine would be different. Will be rebooking in the future!”
“Nicole is the best! Our dogs love her- which is the most important thing to us! Nicole is a fantastic communicator, and we are so grateful to have her care for our dogs!”
“Monica was such a blessing to me to take care of my Maddi during my long work hours. She provided lots of pictures and videos during her visits and always communicated clearly to me. Monica took good care of Maddi and gave her lots of love!🩷”
“Nina was very kind and communicative about Chief when we needed someone to let him out a few times when we were out of town for the day. We would for sure book with her again:)”
“Brandi was awesome with our dogs. Always there on time and the dogs love her! It was so nice to be able to go somewhere and not have to worry about my dogs at a kennel not getting the attention that Brandi gave them. I will definitely be rebooking with Brandi on our next trip/vacation.”
About: I’ve been dog sitting & cat sitting since I was 17 and have loved it since! I have 1 senior dog, and 2 cats that I couldn’t live without! I’ve been pet-sitting since high school, but have been using it as a side hobby since I’m in college studying social work! I’ve dog sat for puppies-senior dogs, and cats of all ages,I am able to administer medications, and love outside walks/play! I am in school full time, but have a reliable schedule & transportation. Monday/Wednesday/Fridays I am available anytime after 1 PM. Tuesdays and Thursdays I am available between 8 AM-11 AM and anytime after 3 PM. I have a fenced backyard but I know many great walking places in the city if applicable. I love playing and enrichment time for all animals.
“We had a great experience! Chelsey stopped by while we were away and made sure our cats had plenty of food and water, which gave us so much peace of mind. We’d definitely book with her again!”
“Melissa was amazing for caring for our cat Milli. She paid attention to little details and genuinely cared for her. She went above and beyond on everything we asked. Highly highly recommend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “We couldn’t be happier with the care provided for our two older dogs. She went above and beyond with every visit—making sure they were comfortable, well cared for, and sending us thoughtful updates that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares for animals, and we are so grateful for her kindness and professionalism. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate sitter!””
“Absolutely wonderful!!! My kitties were comfortable with her right away which allowed me to leave knowing they were in good hands!!! Everything was clean and kitties were well fed and well loved! Thanks Katie!!!'”

Brandt took wonderful care of our two cats! We had issues with our water while we were away, and Brandt was kind to offer to water over for them. We appreciated the updates throughout the weekend and his extra attention to our playful kitten! Brandt is very attentive, kind, and his love for his work and animals is very clear -- we would recommend him as a pet sitter to anyone!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Martinez on Rover is $19.98 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 506 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Martinez. 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 Martinez 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.

- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs

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.
