“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 have always enjoyed being around pets and have been taking care of dogs and cats, on a regular basis, for the last 4 years. I currently work for a big box retailer that provides daycare and overnight stays. I currently work part-time, so I am available to spend quality time with your pet while you are away. I’m available for drop-in visits or to take your dog out for walks throughout the day. I have experience handling dogs and cats of various ages, personalities, and needs. I’d love the opportunity to build a trusting and lasting relationship with your pet.
About: Hi, I’m nicole . I grew up with animals my whole life. I have a passion for pets of all sizes and species. I am excited to be able to help you by caring for your pets while you are away. Your babies will be cared for and loved just as if they were my own. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your pets. I’m currently working at night. So I’m mostly at home all the time.

“I understand why Cheryl has so many 5-star reviews! She sents dozens of photos each day, brought her own toys to engage my cats, and I came home to an unexpectedly clean house. She went above and beyond for my family! You'll come home to zero surprises with Cheryl.”
“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!”
About: I had a wonderful German Shepherd for 12 good yrs and 5 beautiful cats! I have also taken care of our neighborhood cats and dogs when families go on vacation. I’ve done dog walking and drop-ins for families in the Peninsula, Livermore, and East Bay. I also have experience with elderly dogs and blind dogs. I am available most of the week unless I am booked by other clients. Please feel free to message me even if there isn’t availability shown on the schedule. I have a fenced back yard where your babies can roam around and play! I also have lots of dog toys for indoor activities !
About: Animals have been part of my life forever, and I truly love them. I have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats, including pets with behavioral challenges. My own dog and cat taught me a lot about patience, consistency, reading body language, and earning an animal’s trust. I’ve also worked with animal behavior specialists to better understand and support them, and I’m currently studying animal psychology on my own. I know how to approach pets in a way that helps them feel safe and comfortable, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with them, whether that means playing, petting, brushing, or attending to their needs as needed. I know that cats are all very different, and I’m happy to go at their pace. I also understand how stressful it can feel to trust someone else with your pet, because I’ve been on that side too - I had to hire Rover walkers for my own dog when I was injured. So I do not take that trust lightly. I’m cautious, attentive, and I follow instructions precisely. I keep dogs safely leashed unless told otherwise, never let them out of my sight, and make sure they get not just basic care, but real affection, attention, and thoughtful handling. Your pet will be treated like family with me - safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I have a flexible schedule and extra availability during the week. I am especially available in the early mornings and evenings, which makes me a great fit for walks, feedings, and drop-in visits. I enjoy building pet care into my day and giving animals steady, reliable attention. I currently offer pet care in my client’s home only, since I have pets of my own and do not offer boarding. I believe many pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing calm, reliable care there. I follow instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and pay careful attention to safety with doors, leashes, gates, feeding, and any special care needs. My goal is to make your pet feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Maya was absolutely awesome with our cat Max. Extremely diligent and detail oriented for all the care he needed while we were away. Please don’t hesitate to connect with her if the arrangement works out!”
“Katrina has watched Cloak twice now, and she’s been wonderful! He warms up to her immediately and he’s been in a good mood whenever we get back. Communication and photos have been great, and Katrina’s been a big help watching over our strawberries too!!”

“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.”
“Victor was absolutely amazing! He did a 3x visit a day for my dogs and cat while I was out of town for a few day. Victor went above and beyond to make sure the pets were well supervised loved, taken care of and also made sure I got adorable videos. Thank you Victor for taking such great care of the house and the fur babies :) we absolutely appreciate your attention to detail and care for animals!”
About: A chance to pick up extra doggies I have a fenced yard and live right down the street from the beach. Your dogs safety is at the highest priority when they are with me. Typical day The furr babies and I walk up for a morning hike around 6am or 7am leave to fort funston or half moon bay trails for a hike that typically last 1hr 30 min In the afternoon we hang out relax like doggy day care and Typically around 3 we go out for another little walk 30 min to 45 min At night time around 7-9 we go on the night walk that typically last around 1hr 30 min Through out the day dogs are roaming free. I never leave them unattended.when no walks or anything is going on. They are hanging out with other dogs and living their best life on doggy vacay with me. Dogs are ONLY kenneled through the night if needed or if that is their usual routine. High possibility they will be sleeping in the bed with me . Unless you don’t like them on furniture. I abide by everything you already have set with the puparoo. I also let out for potty breaks at night Old dogs / dogs with obesities / disabilities get a whole different treatment. 3 x 30 min walks so we don’t over work. If walking is not an option for the puparoo that is totally fine as well. I am very transparent and flexible and love to work with my furr babies families. Don’t hesitate to reach out. I am quick to respond. I am currently going to school at skyline college from Home so it allows me to take pupparoos for boarding. My schedule is always open for new boardings I have a fenced backyard/ fully supervised 24/7. Love to have them near me and around also making me just a huge dog lover. I

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Pacifica
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.
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!
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!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Pacifica on Rover is $28.86 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 10,818 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
- 94% 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.
