“This was my first time using Rover, and Cheryl made the experience amazing! I hadn’t been away from my little cat for any extended period of time since I’d adopted her over a year ago. I was hesitant to have someone come to my home to take care of my baby girl while I’d be away, but Cheryl was amazing with her! She started with a meet and greet, and gave me some tips on how others have utilized her services in the past. She followed all the instructions I left perfectly, and she was so patient with my shy girl 🥹 She sent lots of photos of my cat’s food intake and pictures of her warming up to Cheryl over time! It put me at ease to see my shy girl start to trust and seek out affection from Cheryl. I will certainly request her services again in the future!”
About: I’ve owned dogs ever since I was a child and have cared for dogs outside of my family for a little over 5 years. I love being able to learn the different personalities of each dog I come across. I also have professional work experience at a dog boarding company for a little over a year. I know how to handle dogs of all shapes and sizes and temperament ranges. I own my own dog, Obie, so I am always caring. I am open most days of the week excluding Tuesdays and Thursdays when I have class. I am available mornings though on those days. I am well versed in adapting to the dogs specific environments it’s comfortable in, matching its energy level and always being comforting and loving no matter what.
About: I have had animals for many years ranging from dogs, cats, hamsters, birds, fish and more. While I have raised my own pets in a happy and healthy environment, I have also cared for pets for family, friends, and neighbors. I have only ever received positive feedback. I am flexible on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and on during most holidays. On any given day, I can do walks and visits after 5:00pm. I can do overnight visits too. Since each pet has different needs, I would follow instructions closely based on the pet owner's wishes. I'd pay attention to how the pet is behaving and proactively give them what they need. I do not spend time on my phone while pet sitting; they have my undivided attention.
“Juan was a wonderful dog sitter. My 2 dogs are both nervous and like lots of attention. Juan charmed both of them and I came home to 2 happy dogs. Juan was also very considerate, he even washed the dogs' Kongs. I look forward to having him watch the dogs again.”
“Jie was a wonderful cat sitter! She stopped by to feed, scoop litter, and play with our two boys while we were away for a few days. She kept me well informed and updated and sent tons of pictures of her visits. It was so nice to have peace of mind while I was away and know my cats were well taken care of.”
“Sandra went above and beyond during our trip gone wrong! We got Covid while we had her dropping in on our two cats and she extended her drop ins and made sure to take extra care of them the whole time we were gone. 10/10 thank you, Sandra!”
“Sofia was great. She asked good questions, followed instructions, and filled in some gaps that I didn't think to write down. The animals clearly loved her and barely seemed to notice that we'd been gone when we got back. Very trustworthy and kind to our pets.”
About: SUMMARY: Both my wife and I have over 14 years of experience with dogs. Not only are we raising a dog of our own, most of our family members and friends have dogs that we have watched and cared for over the last decade! We have even experienced caring for a dog that had cancer and gave her the best care and comfort that we could in her last days ❤️ OUR CORGI: Our female Welsh Corgi is 14 years old, giving us much experience taking care of senior dogs. We can apply ointments and keep a strict medication schedule. Our dog requires medication everyday so we are very experienced with high-maintenance dogs. Overall, she’s low energy, keeps to herself, and won’t interact much with other pets. OUR SPACE: We live in a 2 bed/2 bathroom apartment. Dogs are allowed on our beds and sofas as long as they are clean- we love to cuddle with them. We have a gorgeous dog park right in front of us. AMENITIES: Although we live in an apartment, we have amazing amenities here- such as a huge dog park right in front of our unit. They’ll have the chance to run around, get some sun, and play with friends at the dog park if they like to be social. SCHEDULE: We both work from home full-time and are usually always at home! Your pet will always be under watchful eyes from either one of us, or both. SAFETY: We will make sure your pet is safe at all times. When we take dogs outside to relieve themselves, they will be on a leash at all times (unless inside the fully-fenced dog park). We live in a very safe, private complex that is very quiet and dog-friendly. Additionally, given our experience with our own elderly dog, we are extremely good at caring for high-maintenance dogs and are diligent and observant of behavior and health. We know the signs of stress, aggravation, anger, and agitation and will be able to act appropriately. You can rest assured your pet will be safe with us! Note: We expect our clients to bring all necessary food, snacks, medications, bedding, and toys for the duration of their pet’s stay with us. We charge $25 per round trip to the store for any missing items.
“Julie was a lifesaver for us! One day during the crazy storms we had to leave and needed someone to just come check on the pups. She was glad to help and was super communicative and helpful. We were so thankful and look forward to when we can book her again!”
“Antonio did a great job with our boys, he even got our shy dachshund comfortable with him after a couple days. Super fast response time and punctual. We’ll definitely work with him again!”
“Ayva was kind, communicative, and reliable. She came by and did drop-in visits with my 8 month old puppy and gave us updates and pictures. I would definitely reach out to Ayva again if we needed help watching our puppy.”
“Tina is great! I have a difficult dog to walk and she is terrific with him! She always stays in communication and sends me cute pictures. She is the only one I trust with Teddy”
About: Hi, I’m Sophia! I would love the opportunity to walk and care for your dog, whether you need occasional help or regular pet care. You can feel confident knowing your furry family member will be in compassionate, experienced, and loving hands. I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets since childhood, building wonderful bonds with each animal along the way. My experience includes dog walking, daycare, boarding, and pet sitting for family and friends. I also fostered a sweet dog with anxiety for a year, helping them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve cared for dogs through every stage of life, from energetic puppies learning house training to senior dogs needing extra attention and specialized care, including incontinent pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, from 5 to 125 pounds, and am comfortable administering medications and following individual care routines. My family and I take pride in providing a clean, welcoming, and secure environment, including a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time. My husband, Diego, and our daughter, Izabella, share my love for animals, and we would be happy to help your furry family member feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I’ll treat your beloved companion with the same patience, kindness, and respect I would want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I'm a full-time, pet-loving sitter you can trust completely. I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and will have plenty of time to play with and nurture your pups. I am available 24/7 for boarding, daycare, and walking, ensuring your dog receives the attention and love they deserve at all times. Rest assured, your furry friend will be in safe, caring hands with me. I have a fully fenced yard, providing a safe and secure environment for your furry pup. My friendly Golden Doodle will be a great companion, ensuring your dog has company and fun. You can trust me to take care of your pup 24/7, offering attentive and loving care whenever it's needed.
About: I'm a dog lover looking to take care of community pets to ensure that they're dogs are taken care of like how I was able to care for my own dog. I have owned my own pets, including a dog for over 16 years. I am a responsible person who enjoys the presence of animals and will ensure that your dog (or cat) is being taken care of with the utmost care. I can host your pet at my house or sit at your house, whichever is more comfortable for your pet. I am also available to drop in and take your pet out for a walk, play, and socialize so they don't get lonely. I do request that dog boarding requests be discussed with me 48 hours prior to drop off date so that I can make sure that I am available and can accommodate your pet and their needs. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
About: I have taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes, from a tiny dachshund mix to a 120 lb Pyrenees mix. I love all dogs and am willing to visit or walk any breed. I have had dogs my whole life, from passive to reactive and will take care of yours like I do my own. I work full time but am happy to do 2X per day visits / feeding / litter box or dog walks before 7:30 am M-F or after 6pm M-F. The weekends I have full availability. I can visit your pet(s) in your home as frequently as you need, based on my schedule. At this time, I am not offering boarding in my home but that could be discussed case by case as I do have my own resident dog and cats. I will ensure doors / gates are secure and will not let anything happen to your fur babies. I have previously boarded cats in my home and all my animals loved them.
“Krystle took wonderful care of our cats! She gave great updates each visit and shared lovely photos. Krystle gave our cat his pills with no issue too. She called when one of our babies was acting a little off (luckily everyone is okay). Thank you Krystle!!”

Jasmine was so sweet with our elder cat and incredibly helpful! She happily took on the challenge of feeding our cat with the many supplements and medicine that he has (all mixed in with his food). It’s evident that she likes cats and knows how to interact with them. Communication was a breeze! We definitely recommend her and would work with her again!
This is the 3rd time Nikka has taken care of my dog, and she is absolutely the best!! Nikka is utterly reliable, responsible, responsive, and smart, with a calm, loving demeanor with my animals. She was able to take my very unpredictable, reactive, 60 lb. senior dog on substantial walks, without incident with other dogs, on her daily drop-in visits. I'd trust Nikka in any emergency situation to make the right choice, and to always put my animals' best interests first.
Sean took exceptional care of our pup while we were away. He kept us updated with frequent photos and messages, made sure Chance got plenty of walks (including trips to the beach!), and even went above and beyond by bringing in our packages and offering to take our trash cans out on collection day. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Chance was in such good hands. We would absolutely book with Sean again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring sitter.
We engaged Chenyang for several drop-in visits to take care of our cats. She is very responsible, communicative, and punctual. She’s detail-oriented and took photos of her work to assure us that everything was in order. She’s very kind and gentle to pets and our cats warmed up to her very quickly. We would definitely work with her next time!
We have been booking Vicky for a couple months now to do boarding and weekly walks with our dog. She is responsive, kind, a genuine pet lover. Our dog looks forward to his walks with Vicky and we hope to continue to book Vicky for a while. Highly recommended!
Stephanie was amazing. This was my first time using Rover and she made me feel very at ease with everything. She came over for a meet and greet to see the cats and to see our place to show her where everything was and she made that very easy to schedule too. She left great notes and pictures! I highly recommend. I will be using her services again!
Stephen and Erica watched our cat during the Christmas holidays (and agreed to do so on relatively short notice!) and we came home to a happy cat who had received some new toys for Christmas. It was great getting to see pictures of her while we were away and know that there was someone around to make sure that she was eating and getting some attention. Would definitely boom with Stephen and Erica again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Pacifica is $32 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $44 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 10,851 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pacifica. 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 Pacifica. On Rover:
- 83% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 88% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 92% 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.
