About: I’ve handled dogs and cats all my life and I can say with certainty that I bring comfort peace and joy to all animals I’ve interacted with. I love older dogs and cats as much as younger ones and I don’t mind putting in extra work to those that need my help a little more than others. I have a few classes through the week but I can definitely work around my schedule to ensure your babies get the love and care they need. We can also talk about a set schedule to best accommodate you and your pets. I care for my pets and others by making them feel comfortable in their own environment. I can bring a calming presence to any anxious fur baby and make sure they are happy and well cared for.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Morro Bay
My cats LOVE Auntie Zarah, and we do too!! ❤️🐾 She always sends the sweetest updates and photos, making our time away so much more enjoyable and relaxing. There’s nothing better than knowing our boys are so loved, spoiled, and well cared for while we’re gone. We’re so grateful for her! 💕
Shamarah went above and beyond taking care of our senior German Shorthaired Pointer. She understood his needs and had the patience to give him the extra attention he requires. She made sure he got plenty of walks, kept him active and engaged, and clearly spent quality time with him. And she is a great communicator. We received regular updates, detailed reports, and lots of photos, which gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious from the pictures and updates that Henry was comfortable, well cared for, and enjoying himself. We'd gladly book with Shamarah again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, caring, and professional dog sitter.
Melissa was awesome! She checked on and kept good care of our dog Beau while my wife and I were gone for work. Our dog had an accident on the bed and she even helped put the bedsheets in the washer/dryer for us! She was so helpful and I will definitely recommend others to request her dog sitting services!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Morro Bay is $31 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $59 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs.

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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
