“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.”
About: I believe that my compassion for all beings (animals included!) and my soulful connection to them can ensure that your loved one is cared for 🌎🐾 I’m very open and flexible to work with your schedule that serves your pet the best. I usually walk my other dogs anytime from 7 am to 7pm. Before anything, I’d like to meet your pet and make sure they feel comfortable with me! Depending on your instructions, your pet will be supervised with freedom to safely explore and play.
“Vanessa was very communicative around planning the visit and she was also very respectful of my cat’s boundaries around new people! She also was skilled in giving my cat her medication with minimal resistance haha. Thank you for taking care of her!”
“Vicky did an amazing job with my cat Juno. She walked, fed, and played with her. I was impressed with how quickly she responded to messages and how reliable she was. The daily pictures made me feel confident that my cat was in good hands. I will be booking Vicky in the future!”
“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!”
“Vlada was pleasant and easy to work with! She responded promptly and was up for the challenge of taking care of our senior gentleman feline who requires medication and supplements with his feeding. She was happy to connect on a video chat prior to the sitting. We recommend her and would book with her again!”
About: I love animals, despite growing up with only small pets (a hamster, fish, and guinea pig). I have walked dogs before, and I have the energy to keep up with a very playful pet! Although I am new to caring for pets, I am willing to get to know them and learn how best to care for them! I currently have a lot of free time outside of my part-time job, so I have a very flexible schedule, and I am willing to accommodate your and your pet's schedule! I am willing to do basic caretaking tasks like walks, playing, feeding, etc. Since I am new to taking care of pets, I am open to any instructions/tips you have on how to best care for your pet.
“My cat usually hates everyone except me and my husband but she appeared for Stephanie! Stephanie did a great job following the instructions we left and was able to take us on at the last minute when our usual sitter fell through. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Ivan did a great job taking care of my two senior cats. He has great communication and I can tell he cares about the animals. He kept the place clean during drop ins and provided updates and photos!”
“Nikka was absolutely great at looking after my dog! I had her check in on my dog while I was away for about a week and my dog loved how much she cared for him. I have a pretty shy and anxious dog, but it wasn’t long before he started wanting to be friends with Nikka. I’m highly satisfied with the care and help that she has provided!”
“Jie provided excellent care for our 15-year-old medically fragile senior kitty, who has several health conditions that require daily medication. We booked her to visit our cat three times daily to give her food, meds, litter box scooping, and quality time (cuddles, pets, scritches) while we were out of the country. During these check-ins, she sent us lots of pics, videos, and detailed notes about our cat’s appetite, hydration levels, medication reactions, and litter box activity. When she noticed concerning symptoms (decreased appetite, peeing outside the litter box) she called me immediately to let me know and discuss our options. What impressed me most was her ability to give our cat her daily medication (oral pills) in a way that was quick and low-stress, which did not result in any hisses or bites. I can tell she truly loves cats and cared about our kitty’s well-being as much as we do. We felt reassured that our cat was in good hands with Jie, and we’d definitely book her again for future cat sitting.”

“Alyssa did a fantastic job checking in on my dogs while I was away. She was very thorough and took the time for a meet and greet before the check in. Clearly cared about making sure everything was just right. My dogs were happy and well taken care of, and I really appreciated the peace of mind. Highly recommend! Thanks Alyssa!”
“Cheryl was a wonderful cat sitter. She came before her visits to learn their routines and meet them. My cats were drawn to her right away. She was very communicative and did a great job feeding, playing, and caring for them. I came home a clean space and happy cats”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pacifica
Nikka was great with my dog and went above and beyond to make sure they were happy! I liked all the updates and photos I got when she would come take my dog for a walk. Nikka is really the best on Rover and I can rest assured that my dog is being taken good care of when I’m away. 10/10 !!
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.
I have booked Sandra multiple times for drop-in visits for my kitties. She has always been reliable, punctual, and attentive to my fur babies’ needs and my instructions, making sure that despite my absence they receive the care and routines that they’re accustomed to. I highly recommend her!
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!
Jasmine (Jie) was a wonderful sitter for our cat. We booked 2 weeks of drop in visits while we were traveling and she went above and beyond. Our cat loved her and we could travel with a peace of mind since we knew she was taking good care of her. She is very attentive and also very responsive to messages. She would notice little details and changes in our cat and let us know immediately. We would love to keep working with Jasmine in the future!
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 for Pet Sitting in Pacifica on Rover is $30.49 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 10,743 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Pacifica. 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 Pacifica 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 Pacifica. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
