About: Animals are an important part of my life; from rabbits to horses and ducks to dogs. Currently, I live with a quirky, dapper, gentleman dog; and beautiful, liberated, lady cat. They have a great, lovingly antagonistic sibling relationship. My son's dog has epilepsy and some separation anxiety that requires extra gentle support at times. Our cat has an independent, outdoor space that doesn't affect my dander allergy. Because of that, I am able to provide only drop in care for cat(s) to service food, water and litter. My primary focus is to care for dogs. I enjoy discovering each personality. Please use this Promo Code for a discount on your first booking: BONNIH20661 I am available during the week for drop ins while going to school and working on independent projects. Ideally, I am available for housesitting and to keep your pet (and plants?) company and cared for in their familiar environment. I am respectful, detail oriented and have several years of experience with pets and household. Please disclose all special needs, habits and behaviors that I can expect from your pet so that I can be prepared to provide excellent care. Hope to meet with you and your pet at a Meet & Greet!

About: This is my first time working to take care of animals. I have had fur babies my whole adult life. Mostly dogs but I have also had cats. I have a cat and a dog right now I’m retired so no work to worry about. I’m available almost anytime and it would be easy to work around your schedule. Thank you for the privilege I would love to watch animals in my home but I have a small place and a pit bull and a son living with me right now. I would care for your fur baby like I care for my own

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was 14, watching over neighbors’ and others’ animals, including dogs, snakes, a bearded dragon, and cats. I’ve also had cats of my own since I was 8—five in total—and currently care for two on my own. What makes me stand out as a sitter is my ability to connect with animals, especially those that take time to warm up to new people. I’m patient, observant, and always prioritize their comfort. Whether it’s recognizing subtle body language, engaging in enrichment activities, or simply providing calm companionship, I adapt to each pet’s individual needs. In addition to pet care, I have worked as a nanny for young children (ages 4, 2, and 6 months). This experience has strengthened my attentiveness, patience, and ability to balance multiple responsibilities at once—skills that also translate into pet care. I’m experienced in maintaining structured routines, ensuring safety, and providing comfort, which makes me well-equipped to care for pets with different personalities and needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own, offering not just basic care but also companionship and reassurance. I’d love the opportunity to care for your pet and make them feel at ease while you’re away! I will have to go home to feed and spend some time with my two kitties, Pumpkin & Hazelnut, but I also always find time to spend time with your pets as well. As of now I am looking for employment so my schedule is pretty open I provide pet care in the comfort of your home, ensuring your pet stays in a familiar and stress-free environment. Every pet is different, so I follow your specific routines, guidelines, and house rules to keep things as consistent as possible. Whether it’s feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, or medication needs, I prioritize your pet’s well-being and comfort while respecting your home. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take extra care to follow any instructions you provide, from home security measures to special pet needs. I also keep you updated with messages, photos, or check-ins so you have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care so your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for in their own space.

About: I have worked in the animal field for 15 years+. I graduated vet tech school 10 years ago. I am an animal advocate and have worked with domesticate as well as exotic animals. I have understand the troubled animals since i have always adopted the animals that others said were too much to handle. I understand everyone has a busy life and I like to provide a place to safely leave ur pet where they can still be loved and have a warm home. Everyone including the furry members deserve a vacation. I can help take care of other peoples furry family members when they are away. I will discount additional pets in a family. Will discuss pricing when we make sitting reservations! Thank you I work in a vet clinic during the day but my husband is home and keeps ur fur kid(s) company while I’m at the hospital I have a fenced yard and there is usually someone home most the day with ur fur child. When left alone we do what u do at home. If that means a kennel then we do. If that means just hanging out on the couch we do it

About: Hello! Im Joana. I’ve been around animals all my life. My first pet was a rescue dog named Marley who was 8 years old. Since then I have always wanted to rescue and finally got to rescue my own dog 2 years ago. She is now 4 years old and is an Australian shepherd named Maple. I do have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and rescue dogs. I currently work full time in healthcare and work night shifts. I have my scheduled shifts out months in advance, which makes scheduling easier for you and me. I can work with the random crazy hours, that is something I am used to. I live in an apartment with my dog. It is completely gated. I am willing to sit in the clients home as well and offer drop in visits.

About: I’m Lauren—Keeper of Cats, Walker of Dogs, with 25 years of experience caring for animals of all ages and personalities. My approach is quiet, steady, and respectful of each pet’s natural rhythm. Cats are my specialty. I’m comfortable with shy, senior, independent, or affectionate cats, and I follow their lead. I’ve handled medication, special diets, and slow‑paced routines with care. For dogs, I focus on gentle, unhurried walks and calm companionship while still providing full dog care—walks, feeding, playtime, and routine support. I’m a great fit for friendly, easygoing dogs who enjoy steady energy and consistent routines. Services include: • Cat visits, meds, litter care • Dog walks & drop‑ins • Overnights for cats or mellow dogs • Fish feeding • Thoughtful updates + photos If your pets prefer a peaceful presence and steady hands, I’d love to care for them. I work full‑time from home in an emotionally heavy line of work, and caring for animals is the bright, grounding rhythm that keeps me balanced. Stepping away to spend time with your pets—whether it’s a quiet cat visit or a peaceful walk—adds light and calm to my week, and I’m grateful for it. I care for pets by keeping their world steady. In your home, I follow your routines—feeding, litter care, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I move at your pet’s pace, whether that means quiet company or active engagement, all while keeping your space tidy and your pets grounded and comfortable.

“5/5 Stars! I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional care Hillary and her husband provided to my beloved dog, Taz! From the moment I dropped Taz off, I knew I was leaving him in capable and compassionate hands. Despite a few unexpected mishaps, including Taz's Houdini-like escape into a prepared crate in the house, Hillary and her husband handled the situation with professionalism and calm. They ensured Taz was safe, happy, and fed on time, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. What truly sets Hillary and her husband apart, however, is the genuine love and care they show to the dogs in their charge. It's clear they have a deep passion for animals and take the time to understand each dog's unique personality and needs. I highly recommend Hillary and her husband to anyone seeking top-notch pet care. They are trustworthy, reliable, and truly exceptional in every way. Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Taz – I'm forever grateful!”

About: Hi there! 🐾 I genuinely love animals! I've spent the past 5 years caring for cats and dogs, including my own pets. I'm comfortable with all kinds of personalities, including shy, energetic, anxious, and reactive pets. I understand that every animal is different, and I'm happy to be patient and let them warm up to me at their own pace. Whether your pet loves going on walks, playing, cuddling, or just having someone nearby, I'm happy to give them the attention and care they need! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets and your home. I'm big on communication and will gladly send pictures and updates throughout our time together so you know your furry family member is doing well. I'm also comfortable with house sitting, following detailed instructions, and respecting your home and your pet's normal routine. I don't mind cameras in shared spaces, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you're away. My goal is simple: happy pets and peace of mind for you! 🐶🐱🧡 I'm available on both weekdays and weekends! 🐾 I do have a full-time job, but I have flexibility with my schedule and can make adjustments ahead of confirmed bookings. I primarily offer house sitting and dog walking. For overnight stays, I'm happy to stay in a guest room if one is available! Since I live in Orangevale, I'm also open to arranging visits throughout the day and returning to my own home at night, depending on your pet's needs. I'm always happy to talk through expectations and schedules before confirming a booking to make sure we're a great fit! I love keeping pets happy, active, and mentally stimulated! 🐾 For dogs, a typical day might include walks around the neighborhood, playtime with their favorite toys, and plenty of attention and cuddles. If they're comfortable in public spaces and their owner approves, I'm happy to take them to a nearby park for some extra outdoor time! For cats, I love interactive playtime with their favorite toys, giving them pets when they're in the mood, or simply hanging out and keeping them company. I always adjust activities based on each pet's energy level, personality, and routine. Whether they're full of energy or prefer a relaxing day, I'm happy to match their vibe!

About: I have had at least 3 pets my entire life, and that was at my parents' house. I have pet-sat for numerous friends and family members. I have cared for dogs ranging from puppies to senior cuties! I currently have 1 cat at my mom's, 2 dogs, and a cat at my dad's. I am very comfortable with animals, and I am always making sure that they are being taken care of and are having a fun time! I am currently working part-time, usually closing shifts, which are normally 5-9 pm. So I have plenty of time to play with your pets:) I have grown up with pets my whole life, and I am committed to providing a safe and fun environment. My number one concern is your pets:)

About: I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember! I have two pups of my own and have cared for dogs for friends, family, and Rover clients for years. I have experience with puppies, seniors, energetic dogs, and everything in between. What sets me apart is that I’m comfortable caring for a wide range of dogs and meeting them where they’re at. I understand that not every dog is going to be an easygoing, perfectly trained pup and that’s okay! I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, energetic dogs, strong pullers, reactive dogs, medication needs, crate training, and finicky eaters. I’m patient and willing to take the extra time needed to build trust, especially with shy or nervous dogs. I also work from home, so when my schedule allows, your pup gets plenty of companionship rather than being left alone for most of the day. I provide regular updates and photos because I know how reassuring it is to see that your pet is happy and being well cared for. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality. My goal isn’t just to “watch your dog”, it’s to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. 🐾❤️ 🐾 Currently accepting bookings! I currently have open availability to care for your pups’ needs! Walks, belly rubs, playtime, and photo updates are always included. I treat every pet in my care like family and want you to feel confident that they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. For the safety and comfort of your pets, all new clients are required to schedule a meet-and-greet (no charge) before their first booking. This gives us a chance to get acquainted, discuss your pet’s routine and needs, and make sure we’re a great fit! I also ask all new clients to complete a brief Emergency Contact & Veterinary Information Questionnaire so I know who to contact and how to proceed if an unexpected situation arises while your pet is in my care. These simple steps help me provide the safest, most prepared, and stress-free experience possible for both you and your furry family members. Thank you for helping me give your pets the best care possible! My Schedule & Availability I’m a part-time student and full-time hybrid remote employee, which means I’m fortunate to spend a lot of time at home with the pets I care for. My weekly schedule: - Tuesday & Thursday: At UC Davis (10am-2pm) - Wednesday: Half-day work from home, home by 2pm - Monday & Friday: Work-from-home - Weekends: Work-from-home My remote schedule allows me to provide plenty of companionship, attention, potty breaks, walks, and check-ins while still maintaining my work and school responsibilities. 🏡 Weekend House Sitting: Because I work remotely on weekends, I do require reliable Wi-Fi access in your home for weekend house-sitting bookings. This allows me to continue working while remaining at home with your pets and providing attentive care throughout the day. 📅 Please message me directly before booking so we can confirm that the requested dates and times work for both of us. I also have clients who book with me outside of Rover, so while I do my best to keep my Rover calendar updated, it may not always reflect my most current availability. I’m always happy to chat about your pets, their routines, and what they need to feel comfortable and loved while you’re away! 🐶🐱❤️ I tailor my care to each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I have two friendly dogs of my own who can provide companionship when appropriate, but I’m also happy to keep pets separate if that’s what makes them most comfortable. I’m comfortable caring for finicky eaters, dogs who need extra support on leash, and pets with medication requirements. I’m also happy to follow your preferred feeding, walking, and care routines as closely as possible. I have crates available if your pet is crate trained, prefers a crate for downtime, or is currently working on crate training. My goal is always to create a safe, comfortable environment where your pets can stick to their normal routine and feel at home while you’re away.

About: I have had several pets at any given time for the last ten years. I know how to care for mostly any critter you have, and have had lots of experience! Currently we have 3 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, and a parakeet at my house. However, I’ve also owned a cat, fish, multiple hamsters, and even a bunny at one point. It’s safe to say I’ve learned a thing or two about being a pet owner in my time, but I’m also totally open to learning how to care for pets I don’t know too much about! I’m very much aware how much work it is to care for small animals like rodents, as I’ve had at least one since my 7th birthday :) Little guys such as guinea pigs, bunnies, rats, and hamsters have such special places in my heart, they’re just so cute! I also love dogs a lot. Honestly, all animals are pretty cool. I’m currently in college while also working part time. However, in my free time I’m available for whatever you need me for! Anytime after 3 pm on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends I’m at your dog walking needs. Anytime on weekends work for both dog walking and pet sitting. I love pets a lot and adore how bright their individual personalities shine! I like playing games with them such as fetch, or taking them on walks or to the park to run around. At my house I like laying around with my dogs all around me watching TV, so if that’s something your pet enjoys too, we’ll get along just fine ;)

About: I’m generally great with animals and I’ve been a cat mom for 3 years now so I’m quite good at making sure a pet is taken care of. I go the extra mile. And follow directions pretty well. Just finished pet CPR training. I’m relatively flexible but prefer to work in the morning because my other job is at night. Totally free Sundays. I have class Thursday evenings right now and I’m usually at the gun range Saturdays but all other days of the week, I’m flexible. I do a bit of traveling but I will block off those days or I’ll let you know if I’m not available on your requested days. Just let me know ahead of time and I’ll let you know of if I can accommodate your request. I prefer texting via the app as much as possible. I make sure to respect your cat’s space and that their needs are met. I feed pets as instructed. Give treats as necessary. Make sure they have adequate water.

My cat has never been as calm as she was after my short three day absence. This was quite unusual for my 17-year-old cat. I don’t know what Brooklyn did, but whatever it was, I would not hesitate to hire her again.

I had a wonderful experience with Haley! She provided thoughtful daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated while I was away. My cats can take some time to warm up to new people, and she was incredibly patient and understanding, allowing them to get comfortable with her at their own pace. I felt completely at ease while I was away, knowing I could trust her to take good care of them. I would absolutely recommend her and would happily book with her again!

Isabelle was loving and attentive and Flemming came back a happy pup! We are always training Flemming, so asked Isabelle to work on basic commands (heel, sit, stay and blanket), as well has ensure that Flemming was well behaved at her house, and with her elderly dog. Isabelle's training was excellent practice for Flemming - its good for her to listen to whoever is handling her, to behave at other houses and calmly greet other dogs. She also got a walk and some play time in the back yard!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Nimbus

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Nimbus is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $28 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 4,059 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Nimbus. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 with handling special pet needs in Nimbus. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

  • 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 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.
