About: 50 different clients on Wag app, new to rover and excited to meet your pups! Love to get outside to exercise and get some steps in Typical work week is Sunday through Thursday free in the mornings but start @11-7pm but most days are flexible! Off all day Friday and Saturdays With the most respect I can give to a strangers home. Locking doors when leaving the house and making sure the dog doesn’t run out when I open the door to enter/exit
“jenna was absolutely phenomenal with taking care of our cat and house when we were overseas for 2 weeks. she sent very detailed report cards, sent lots of pictures and updates, and responded quickly. we had such a great peace of mind because she was there and will definitely be rebooking. thank you so much jenna and highly recommend her!!!”
“We had the best experience with Maria! She watched our cat for us for 1 week while we were out of town & it could not have gone any better. She dropped by twice a day, gave our cat plenty of love & affection, & sent us lots of pics & updates while we were away which we appreciated so much. Our cat can be very shy but she warmed up to Maria almost instantly & we knew she was in the best care while we were away. We will definitely be booking with Maria again & would recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their furry friend :)”
“Tyler and Tara were amazing! This was the first time leaving our girls this long but they took such wonderful care of them and gave them all the love that they needed. 1000% recommend them for watching your fur babies. We will definitely be booking them for future trips.”
“Halie is an exceptional person and sitter!! We are so appreciative of her kindness to our 4 rescue cats. They all loved her and that’s saying a lot as one of our babies is super duper skittish. Cat moms and dads- totally book with Halie! So grateful for her and so happy to have the peace of mind that comes with complete trust of your fur babies when you go out of town!! 10/10!! Thank you so much Halie!!!!”
“Sierra has done so amazing with Oakley and is always extremely helpful and good! She responds quickly and can always help out especially when it’s last minute! Oakley is very energetic and can be a lot but she does such a well job walking and keeping him calm!”
“Keerie took such great care of our Willow. The constant updates and photos were super nice and put my mind at ease knowing our girl was in such great hands!”
About: I've always believed that dogs aren't "just pets" - they're family. That's why I want every dog I care for to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their people are away. When I come to your home, I don't want your pup to feel like someone simply stopped by to let them outside. i want them to look forward to seeing me! Whether it's a potty break, a little playtime, some belly rubs, or simply sitting with them and giving them company, I take the time to make their visit special. I'm the person who will notice the little things- if your dog seems extra tired, isn't eating normally, needs extra attention, or just wants someone to sit beside them. I'll follow your instructions and your dog's routine because I know every pup has their own personality and needs. Most importantly, I want you to feel completely comfortable knowing that while you're gone, someone caring and dependable is looking after your best friend. I currently work 3 days a week. I self schedule at my other job so I can fit more time in doing what I love, which is caring for pets. I do not offer caring for pets in my home. I have two dogs of my own at my home that I need to be cautious of.
About: I work from home and am home throughout the day, allowing me to provide consistent attention, regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible and able to accommodate each pet’s unique schedule and routine, whether they need a quick drop-in, a walk, overnight care, boarding, or someone to stay with them throughout the day. I’m comfortable caring for pets at different life stages, including young pets who need patience, structure, and help with training, as well as senior pets who may need extra comfort, slower walks, medication reminders, or assistance maintaining their routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, and my goal is to provide dependable, loving care that makes them feel right at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and am home throughout the day. This gives me the flexibility to provide regular potty breaks, walks, meals, playtime, and plenty of companionship. I’m also comfortable caring for senior pets who may need extra patience, attention, or assistance, including administering medications as directed. I’m able to accommodate different schedules and routines, whether your pet needs a quick drop-in, a walk, overnight care, boarding, or someone to stay with them throughout the day. I know how important it is for pets to feel comfortable and maintain their normal routine while their owners are away. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home while in my care.
“We are beyond happy that we had Emily to care for our 3 dogs while we were out of town! She went above and beyond to care for them and to communicate so that we knew they were in good hands! We highly recommend her!!”

About: I currently have a Labrador Retriever and a cat, and before them I raised a golden retriever who lived to 11. I’m close to the MetroParks, so even without a fenced yard there’s plenty of opportunity for long walks and fresh air. I believe a calm dog is a happy, well‑behaved dog, and I make sure every pup gets the exercise and attention they need. I know it can be stressful leaving your dog in a new environment. My goal is to put your mind at ease so you can fully enjoy your vacation or event. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing. I’m dedicated to making animals feel at home—just like I hope for my own pets when I’m away. I work from home three days a week, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks and attention throughout the day when the weather is nice. I’m also home on weekends, so your pets will have consistent company and care. I have a friendly dog and cat to keep your fur baby company. I can crate your dog easily if needed. I am in an apartment, but there’s convenient side walks and paths for taking bathroom breaks multiple times per day.
About: I have always cared for dogs and cats. Happy to walk, potty, feed, spoil, give a good scratch and meds as needed and of course cuddle! I currently work from home, and currently care for my dad and we share responsibility over our lab, Jackson. Its very easy for me to drop by, or stay the night. Happy to sit in your home, walk and potty breaks. Enthusiastic about meeting you and your furry friends. Have either owned pets since I was a kid or sat for friends and neighbors.
“Just looked at all of the pictures Marissa shared from the drop in. T looks very happy and like he’s very comfortable with her. The drop in worked out very well and I hope to use Rover more often for peace of mind when I have to leave my boy.”
“My dogs took to William/were extremely at ease with him immediately - he has calming mojo 😉 He is very responsive, very punctual with his visits, and thorough with his visit reports .... and also is very conscientious and goes above and beyond - bringing in the mail and tidying up around the house if he sees something that needs attention! I would certainly recommend William to anyone needing someone to care for their furbabies!”

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Peninsula on Rover is $27.75 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 .

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 Peninsula 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 Peninsula. On Rover:

- 97% 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.
