About: I’ve always had a genuine love for animals and know how important it is to have someone you can trust caring for your pet. I had my own dog for 16 years, so I understand just how much they become part of the family. I’m patient, attentive, affectionate, and will treat your pet with the same love and care I’d want for my own. I have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide your pet with the attention and care they deserve. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, playtime, and companionship, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and your pet’s usual routine. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs and will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care.
“Xiaowei (Echo) was wonderful. Our senior pup doesn't move much these days, but went right over to Echo to say hi with a wagging tale. She asked great questions and really made me feel comfortable about leaving our pup with her. Echo is my new go-to person for any pup care needed.”
About: I've been caring for pets since 2019. I previously owned two cats, who now live with my family after I relocated. Caring for them taught me how to understand different personalities, routines, and behaviors. I've also cared for both cats and dogs for 5–6 friends while they were away, with my longest pet-sitting stay lasting over two months. I've cared for pets with different energy levels and personalities, and I'm comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and following any special care instructions. I'm patient, responsible, and attentive to detail. Whether it's a cat or a dog, I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I'll also provide regular photo and video updates so you always know how your pet is doing. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to give your pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. I'm available on weekdays and weekends for drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, and longer-term care. I'll do my best to accommodate your schedule while keeping your pet's daily routine as consistent as possible. Your pet's comfort and safety are always my top priorities. Having cared for both cats and dogs, I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and needs. I'll carefully follow your care instructions, maintain a clean and safe environment, and make sure your pet feels comfortable while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, litter box cleaning, medication, or extra attention for shy or senior pets, I'm happy to help. I'll also send regular photo and video updates to give you peace of mind. I'm comfortable caring for shy, senior, or high-energy pets, and I'll always let them interact at their own pace without forcing attention.
“Fereshteh was amazing and took care of my cat like her own! She was continously sending me updates and replied quickly if I had any questions for her. Would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Emily is an awesome cat whisperer! She has cats herself, so she knows cats extremely well. She’s very observant of my cats, would protect my shy little girl cat’s treats from my bully cat and is always very responsive. I’m definitely going to book her again!”
“Zihan is amazing! She has the initiative to take care of my two cats and even my plants! She’s positive, passionate about the job and report timely for any abnormal situation. I enjoyed my holiday time and I will book her again!”
“Fuliang did a great job. I felt my cat Alba was well cared for. I got a nice detailed report on the last day. Could have used a picture of my cat everyday but otherwise I am a very satisfied customer and will use this sitter again for my pet sitting needs.”
“Elise has been taking care of my cats when I travel for nearly five years now. She's responsive, reliable, and my cats like her. It's far easier to relax on vacation when I know my cats are being well cared for. I'm grateful to have found someone I trust.”
“Laurelle was fantastic and I would absolutely book her again! :) She clearly cares deeply about animals, and it shows in how she interacted with Bunny and Simba. She didn’t just stop by to complete tasks, she spent time playing with them, engaging them, and making sure they felt comfortable and cared for. It was obvious she treats pets with a lot of patience, respect, and genuine affection. She was also very attentive and detail-oriented with their care, making sure they were eating, comfortable, and well looked after during each visit. Beyond that, she went above and beyond by taking care of small but important things like refilling the water purifier, handling cleanup, and even taking out the trash, which I really appreciated. Communication was smooth and courteous throughout. She was responsive, thoughtful in her updates, and easy to coordinate with. Overall, Laurelle is reliable, considerate, and truly great with pets. Highly recommend her if you want someone who will treat your pets like her own.”
“We had a great experience with Sierra! She took wonderful care of Boots while we were away and kept us updated throughout, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. She was reliable, communicative, and attentive to all the care instructions we left. We came home to a happy and well-cared-for kitty. Would definitely recommend her and would happily book with her again!”
“I would highly recommend Zhengjun when considering someone to take care of your pet. Zhengjun stepped up and took over for my original sitter when that arrangement didn’t work out properly. Without Zhengjun’s assistance we would have been in a real predicament. So thank you Zhengjun for stepping up and saving the day!!”
“Stephen was absolutely amazing with my cat ! I booked Stephen last minute for 6 days . I am glad he was available. I could not have found a better sitter for my cat. He made sure to feed and refill my cat’s food and water while I was gone. He sent tons of pictures and very responsible in communicating with me over the Rover app! He checked in timely and was extremely professional, he spent a lot of time playing with my cat! I will definitely book him again”
About: I always loved dogs since my childhood but couldn’t have one till 5 years ago. The pandemic time seemed the perfect time to get a puppy. I’ve a samoyed dog named Caesar whom we’ve had since he was 8 weeks old. Hence, I do have experience looking after puppies. I also have experience with house training and crate training, if necessary. Note: I won’t be accepting breeds like pitbull, huskies and german shepherds. I’m currently not working so I will be home all day to look after your fur baby. There might be occasional 1-2 hours that I might be out running errands but I will almost always be home. I’ve a fenced backyard and a very friendly 5-yr old dog. I also have a kid who is 3.5 years old, hence I would kindly request any potential client to make sure that your fur babies are friendly with other dogs and kids. If in doubt, please ping me before booking with me. I can give potty breaks as often as necessary and can also take them out on walks twice a day.
“We cant be more than happy to have Anh taking care of our dogs for the holidays she was always on time and got many pictures and making sure our babies were safe while we were gone . I feel very confident and happy with her been so professional and response all the time . I hope she continue helping us in the near futures .”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve cared for an Akita dog and cats since they were just seven weeks old, and I currently look after a one-year-old corn snake and two four-year-old river turtles. I understand that every pet has its own routine, preferences, and comfort zone, and I’m patient and attentive to those individual needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I communicate clearly with pet parents, provide regular photo updates, and make sure you always feel at ease while you’re away. Your pets’ happiness and safety always come first — and I’ll do everything I can to make sure they feel loved and well cared for. I can provide pet care on weekdays, both early mornings and late nights, with flexibility on weekends to fit your schedule and your pets routine! At your home, I make sure your pet’s space stays familiar and comforting. I follow their usual schedule for feeding, play, and rest, keep litter boxes and living areas clean, and provide companionship and reassurance while you’re away. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve cared for my 2 big babies for about 8 years now. At first I had only one dog, then she got pregnant and I helped deliver all her babies at home. We found homes for all of them, but we kept one. So now they are mother and daughter duo. I’m currently open to work from 10 am to 5 pm from Monday through Friday. Please consider me to take care of your fur baby when you’re away from home. At home I have two loving dogs that are freed to roam everywhere. They are friendly with people just not so much other fur babies.
“Adrianna is my go-to pet sitter! Time and again, she is such a pleasure to work with--responsive, flexible, caring, reliable, the list goes on and on. I just can't say enough wonderful things about her!”
About: I’ve had the joy of seeing my own dogs and cats grow from tiny puppies and kittens into beloved seniors (16+ years old), caring for them through every stage of their lives. I understand how much love and importance they hold in our families, and how deeply we cherish their companionship. What sets me apart is the heartfelt care and experience I bring. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with everything from energetic walks to gentle senior care. Whether it’s giving medications, providing extra patience with older pets, or simply showering them with love and attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. It’s a true joy and privilege for me to look after these little four-legged angels while giving peace of mind to their families. Pet care is naturally part of my daily life. I make sure pets in my care get plenty of attention, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I’m very mindful of their routines, and I always prioritize their needs — from morning walks to afternoon playtime and everything in between.So they always feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Providing a calm and attentive environment is very important to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. When pets stay in my home, they are treated like family. I let them explore the space freely, relax on the couch, and even sleep with me if that’s what they’re used to, but I always make sure to follow the owner’s rules and preferences, whether the pet is staying at my home or I’m caring for them in their home. I want them to feel as comfortable and loved as they do at home. I live very close to a beautiful park with a dog park and walking trail, which is perfect for daily walks, playtime, and giving them a fun outdoor adventure.
About: I enjoy interacting with dogs and am very passionate about them! My sister has a husky and my brother has a golden doodle. It is so much fun playing with them and giving them the attention they need. I enjoy watching them with the way they communicate with us. I am caring and loving person who has a passion for taking care of dogs. I am usually available to walk dogs in the evenings or on the weekends, but my full time work is flexible so I would be available in the mornings and afternoons if I know ahead of time. I am also available to dog sit anytime during the week and occasional weekends and I am quite flexible. I hope to get the opportunity to care for your dog and I will take very good care of them. Thank you for your time! I currently have a flexible job schedule and am able to take care of the pups when needed. I'm available on weeknights and weekends and am flexible. The way I would care of pets at the client's home is by ensuring that they have everything they need and follow what the client's needs are for their pet.

My Marina had a wonderful experience with Laurel. She was very loving and attentive, and made sure I got wonderful updates and messages about Marina during my trip. I appreciate the effort she took to connect with Marina, and I could tell that Marina felt quite comfortable with her.
This was my second time booking Laurelle, and she was once again wonderful with Bunny and Simba. She is reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring, and it’s clear that both cats feel comfortable with her. Her thoughtful updates and photos gave me complete peace of mind throughout the weekend, and I returned to two happy, relaxed cats. I’m so glad to have found someone I can trust with them and would happily book her again!
Emily is the greatest sitter I’ve ever had. She’s so kind and patient with my two cats. My girl cat isn’t as friendly, but somehow Emily’s won her over. I’ve booked her several times. She’s consistent, trustworthy, reliable, and extremely communicative—all very important qualities to have in someone who’s taking care of your loved ones. I’ll keep booking her as long as she’ll have us 😻.
Katy was absolutely wonderful taking care of our Ragdoll cat, Dora, over the Independence Day holiday. She visited every day, brushed Dora to keep her coat clean and tangle-free, spent quality time playing with her, and sent us lots of photos and updates after each visit. It gave us great peace of mind knowing Dora was happy, well cared for, and getting plenty of attention while we were away. Katy is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly loves animals. We really appreciated the care she put into every visit, and we would absolutely book her again. Highly recommend!
Katherine did an amazing job! I contacted her on very short notice because my sitter canceled. She was very accommodating I accidentally had the wrong address on my profile and I’m out of town with no service so the messaging process was hard. She contacted me asking how to get in since it was the wrong place the code wasn’t working. Eventually I got her messages and she was willing to go back to my new address. She did an amazing job taking care of my kitties and making sure everything was clean and they were fed. She went above and beyond and I will definitely book with her again and recommend her to others! Thank you Katherine!❤️🐱
Emily was extremely caring and went above and beyond by spending a lot of extra time with Luna so she wouldn't be lonely. The communication was excellent—we received consistent updates and adorable photos the entire time. We felt completely at ease knowing Luna was in such loving hands. We are so happy with the care Luna received!
Sheela was amazing! She was very communicative, proactive and flexible! She sent me updates all the time and made me feel at ease. She took very good care of Nico and Tuco. I could tell from the pictures she took my babies weren't stressed and in good hands. I would highly recommend her! :))
Yiwei and Yue were wonderful! They were very responsive and easy to work with. Yue took the time to meet Nimbo before our vacation. She took notice of Nimbo's mannerisms and was familiar with the types of litter and food that we had in the house. While Yue was visiting, she noticed that the automatic pet feeder was out of dry food so she took the time to make sure that it was refilled. Thank you again for watching over Nimbo!
Andrew is amazing! I needed a last minute sitter over a couple of days and he responded within an hour:) super communicative and asked many questions to make sure our dogs got everything they needed. He also updated us throughout his visits and our dogs were so happy! Definitely rebooking and you should too!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Milpitas on Rover is $27.75 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 7,277 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Milpitas. 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 Milpitas 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 Milpitas. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
