About: I've spent many years caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I've always considered pets part of the family, and I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and individual attention. I'm especially comfortable working with shy, nervous, and anxious dogs. I understand that building trust takes time, and I make it a priority to help every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether I'm providing overnight house sitting, daily visits, or dog walks, I treat your pets and home with the same respect and care I would want for my own family. I'm dependable, have reliable transportation, and take your pet's routines and special instructions seriously. I'll also provide regular photo updates so you can relax knowing your furry family members are in good hands. My goal is simple: happy pets, a well-cared-for home, and peace of mind for you. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members!
About: Hi! I'm Sherrie. I'm the kind of pet sitter who sends photo updates, and may leave your home looking better than when you left. Originally from Hawaii and now based in Ojai, yet travel to you elsewhere is no problem! I've spent years caring for homes, animals, and all the little details that help owners relax while they're away. Dogs and Cats seem to like me. Whether your pet is a couch potato, an adventure buddy, a professional squirrel observer, I'll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, exercise, and companionship. When you're away, I'll provide: • Pet care and companionship • Walks, playtime, and belly rubs (when approved by management) • Medication administration if needed • Home security checks • Regular photo updates My goal is simple: for you to enjoy your trip without worry. I treat every home with respect and every pet like family. Looking forward to meeting your furry, feathered family member. I own my own company so normally have nice flexibility. I can do last minute work at times as well. Happy to discuss. Just ask! I will follow your lead on how to care for them on your property. I always like a solid list of information. Email is fine too
About: I am working on my animal communication. Dogs and horses are the easiest. Cats are spirits and I am curious to see what they have to say. Trees and plants also tell me when they want water. I work from home and only part time. I am flexible and like to break up the day with walks. I can also go for a drive to the dog park or a walk in town. I can come solo or bring my dog for company for walks. If I stay overnight I come with Brittney (my fur baby) and she usually sleeps in her crate when we travel or in her bed on the floor. Just let me know what your pet likes.
“Mari was absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly attentive throughout the entire stay and came to care for Billie twice a day while I was away, tiring her out with pets and play time while keeping her clean, fed and happy! Even my next door neighbor went out of their way to find me when I returned just to tell me how kind and attentive Mari had been in my absence, which says everything and gave me such confidence 🥹 I was also sick while traveling, so having Mari send daily videos in addition to the Rover cards was especially meaningful. It gave me so much reassurance and peace of mind knowing Billie was not only being cared for, but genuinely loved and looked after. I’m so grateful I found her, have already rebooked, and would wholeheartedly recommend Mari to anyone looking for someone they can trust with their pets. Five stars, without hesitation!!”
About: I have always pet and house sat for neighbors, family friends, my family. I am a home body and enjoy watching over and protecting people's homes and beloved animals while they are away. I am always apprehensive leaving my pets alone with a stranger, that is why I strive to make people feel safe and comfortable. I have always been an animal person and have done pet-sitting as a favor to people. I figured, now as a nineteen year old, why not make it a nice little side hustle to earn some extra money for college. I live in Solvang California and I work a part time job on the weekdays. Other than that I can walk dogs, do drop in visits and I can stay in your house to watch over your animals. Each pet is unique, I appreciate when owners walk me through their routine, leave notes and emergency contact info, if anything were to happen. I want to make both the animals and owners comfortable, and like everyone to be on the same page. Communication is very valuable.
About: Thanks for reading, a little about me, I have a master's degree in social work, a mental health therapist, and passionate pet person. I have been a shelter volunteer in the past. I have also been trusted with pet sitting for others. I also own two corgis myself. Open schedule at this time. Flexible on timeframes and dates. Feel free to message me and we can discuss more. Thank you so much. Take great care. I have experience with pet sitting in others homes, experienced with house sitting for both dog and cat families. Looking to meeting your four legged family member.
“We had a family emergency and had to travel to the east coast after adopting our new puppy. Chelsi checked in on her, played with her and made sure she felt comfortable before leaving. Chelsi was super responsive, sent photos and always made sure to check in. We appreciated her care so much and will def book her again if given the opportunity. Thank you!!”
“Ryan went out of his way to spend extra quality time with my cats and I could tell he loved being with them! He was reliable, communicative and very kind! Highly recommend him!”
“Had a last minute trip and Lea was able to step in quickly to take care of my cats. The cats have very annoying and picky eating habits and medications, but she was able to manage both of them and get them to eat, and get them to take their meds without a hitch. She played with them a lot, sent great pics, and the cats both seemed very content and happy upon return.”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, parrots, farm animals, etc. So I know all the tips and tricks to get an animal to calm down, to get them to go potty, as well as to stop pulling when walking, behave etc. . I’m an active person so your do would never be bored. I treat every animal like it’s my own so it would be going to someone who would love the furry friend as well as someone who would take the best care of him/her. Animals in my mind should be treated like a human family member! I’m currently in college, so as long as your needs can align with my class schedule i’ll be there. to note: I am UNAVAILABLE all tuesdays. I am a very aware and cautious person. I double check nearly everything I do with regards of keeping everyone/thing safe. I can assure you you’re furry friends will be safe with me.

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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
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.
