“5 Stars , Absolutely phenomenal pet sitter! We’ll definitely be booking her again if possible! Amber will treat your animals with love and help take the stress off from you AND your pet. We had Amber do two drop-in visits per day for 2 days, and she was outstanding in every way. From the very beginning, she was quick with responses, incredibly flexible, accommodating a last minute booking and even adjusting the schedule by several hours on the first day when our departure got delayed with her schedule and flexibility luckily coming through again for us. She made the whole process stress free. She was wonderful with our dog Hazel. The updates she sent through the Rover app were some of the best and reassuring. She included exactly when Hazel went on bathroom breaks during walks, how much she ate and drank, and how she was doing overall. When we got home, Hazel was so comfortable and happy that she was sprawled upside down on the bed in the bedroom and didn’t even hear me calling her loudly from the other room, that’s how relaxed and well cared for she was! Amber took Hazel on multiple walks each visit, made sure she was fed and watered, and clearly gave her lots of love and attention. We felt completely at ease leaving our girl in her care and trusted her 100%. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and communicative pet sitter. Thank you so much, we can’t wait to book with her again in the future!”
About: I’ve had a variety of pets my whole life; dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, lizards, turtles, rats, ferrets, and fish! I’m very comfortable being around animals. I am currently a nurse but enjoy being around these furry creatures so much that I wanted to do this on the side! I promise you your pet is in good hands with me. This will be more a reward for me than a job ❤️ Weekdays after 3 I’m typically always available. Other times throughout the day and weekends will vary, so please just ask! I will do what I can :) I can work with you and your pets needs. Whether they use an automatic feeder or need manually fed, I can provide what is needed.
“Responsive and easy to schedule. Good communication. We met and they spent time with my dog. When they care for her, they provide nice notes of what they did and shared pictures. Will use them again for drop in walks and pet sitting.”
“This was my first time hiring Keerie. Keerie was the best! Loads of pictures were sent to me everyday of our vacation. My Fur babies love her! I had no worries. Will definitely hire her again!”
“Tara was great with my two kittens! She made sure that they were comfortable and loved while I was away. I have one who bolts for the outside and she was extra cautious to make sure there was no escapees!”
“Taylor was so great with my Cleo! She was available on short notice and was willing to meet us prior to going away for a few days. I was really worried how Cleo would react, he is an older dog and protective, but she handled him so very well! Thank so much Taylor! I will be reaching out again!”
“Katelynn is super nice! She was great with Bella, and Bella loves her too. You can tell she really loves pets. She’s super organized and prompt and knows this application well because she was able to help me reschedule a couple of times. I will definitely be using Katelynn in the future!”
About: My husband and I have owned dogs and cats our whole lives and I have been taking care of other people’s pets since I was in high school and have experience with cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My goal is to provide dependable care and regular updates so you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. My husband and I are both approved rover pet care takers so one or both of us may be the one to help! I’m a stay at home mom with a husband who works remote so I’m very flexible! This allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, walks, and lots of attention throughout the day. Your pet will receive plenty of supervision and companionship while in my care. We are always happy with last minute bookings, so feel free to reach out! Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions provided. I always keep pets supervised, ensure doors and gates are secure, and pay close attention during walks and outdoor time. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Rebekah was very attentive to our fur-babies’ every need! Very caring, with lots of loving up! Along with Daily reports & pictures being sent to us! Totally put my mind at ease, knowing they were in Excellent hands, in our absence! We Highly Recommend Rebekah as your drop-in Pet/Home Caregiver ?”
“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!!!!”
“We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Emma! She was absolutely incredible with our dog, Reagan, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such loving and caring hands while we were away. Emma went so far above and beyond what we could have ever expected. She was incredibly attentive to Reagan’s needs and wants, and her level of care and thoughtfulness meant so much to us. What stood out most was how genuinely Emma cared about Reagan. She didn’t treat her like just another dog she was watching, she took the time to get to know her, make her feel comfortable, give her plenty of love and attention, and she always took the extra step to keep Reagan happy. Her communication throughout the week was wonderful, and her updates gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It can be really hard to leave your pet with someone else, but Emma made the entire experience so easy. We came home to a happy, comfortable, and well-loved dog, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she did. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, compassionate, attentive, and genuinely wonderful with animals, look no further than Emma. We recommend her without hesitation!”
About: Nice to meet you! I've personally had dogs and cats since I was 5 years old. I currently have 3 dogs who I love to the moon. I am my family and friends go to when/if they need someone to take care of their animals-whether it be dropping in for potty breaks and/or walks during busy days or dog sitting when on vacations, I know what it takes to love and care for my own animals and can provide the same care for your own pup. Let me help take the stress out of finding reliable care! I have experience with all ages and am comfortable with learning and catering to your dog's specific needs and routines. I currently work from home 3 days a week and can tailor my work schedule to meet your needs during the week. The remaining weekdays I am available in the afternoons, starting at 3pm. Weekends are also flexible After gaining your pet's trust, I will stick to their usual routine by offering potty breaks, daily walks, food schedule and tons of attention. I also can offer updates that tailor your needs to show that your pet is in great care.
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.
“Dave was fantastic! He was quick to respond from my initial inquiry. The meet and greet was a success as I could tell my pup loved him right away. Dave was communicative, on time, and followed all instructions. He was tidy and respectful of my home. I felt so at ease knowing my puppy was in good hands and having fun and the photos showing how happy Corbin was were the highlight of my day. Thank you Dave for being so wonderful and taking such great care of Corbin. I know he'll miss you. Hope to book with you again and will absolutely suggest you to friends and family!”
“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 :)”
“Jenna was absolutely amazing with our dogs! She was so kind and patient with them and took awesome care of them while we were out of town. Our dogs tend to be a little nervous but she was so patient and kind with them and they warmed up so quick to her! She is so reliable and it was such a relief to know that my pups were in good hands. Thank you Jenna!! You’re the best!”
“Kevisha was very kind and sweet to our Jax. Always on time and took pictures to let us know he was walked and fed and happy. Definitely gave us peace of mind when we were traveling!”
“Julie was great! She was very patient and caring with my very shy and nervous cat. She took extra care to make sure he was as comfortable as he could be in order to receive medication he needs. She was also very communicative, meet with me multiple times to ensure I felt comfortable. Highly recommend and plan on using in the future!!”
“Lynette is truly wonderful with my dog, Hannah. She cares for her with so much love and attention, and I always have complete peace of mind knowing Hannah is in her hands. Lynette spoils her like she is one of her own, and Hannah absolutely adores her. In fact, when I return from a trip, Hannah will sit by the door waiting for Lynette to come back! That says everything about the special bond they share. Lynette is the only sitter I trust and the only one I will book.”
“We truly appreciate Katie going the extra mile for Bella. She kept in constant communication with us, showed genuine concern for Bella, and did everything to ensure Bella ate and was well. Thank you, Katie; we are so grateful.”

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 .
As of September 2026, there are 2,658 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Peninsula. 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 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:
- 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 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.
