About: I've cared for dogs for years and would love to ensure your pup gets all the love and exercise they need to be happy and healthy! I'm also very active myself so I can also take your pup on a fast-paced walk or run to get their energy out! Very flexible schedule with lots of availability during weekdays or weekends ! Open to repeat visits as needed. I work part-time / at home providing me an versatile schedule for whatever timing works for you and your pup. During drop-in visits and dog-walks, I emphasize gentleness, attentiveness, and building trust with your animal to ensure their needs are tended to with playfulness and adaptability to your pet's unique temperament.
About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember, and to me, dogs are so much more than pets- they’re family. My own dog, Murphy, is truly a beloved member of my family, and I understand how much dogs mean to us. For 30+ years, I’ve had the joy of caring for the dogs of friends and family. I’m loving, patient, dependable, and attentive, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attention I give Murphy. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, happy, and loved. I currently have plenty of time to look after and play with your pet! I pride myself in being a wonderful companion to your pet. I will always assess every opportunity to ensure or do whatever it takes to make your pet feel safe. I have an incredible attention to detail
“Jackie care for our shy cat, Mick, over the Thanksgiving break. She did an exceptional job. Communication was frequently and clear and service provided went above and beyond! Will 100% work with Jackie again!”
“Melina was great! Very flexible with my last minute drop in request. My dogs loved her and she took great care of them. Went above and beyond in a rain storm to make sure their paws were dry and the floors were not muddy. Checked in regularly and made me feel at ease knowing my dogs were taken care of.”
About: I have years experience watching friends and families dogs as well as my own 8 year old pit bull. I love all animals and would love to spend time with your doggy :) I am available weekday nights after 6:00 pm and full day weekends Saturday and Sunday. On weekends I am available to spend unlimited time with your pet. Your pet will be well taken care of. I will make sure your pet has the right amount of exercise, attention, and that their needs are met.
“Devon was so friendly and communicative, we would love to utilize her again. Our pets loved her and she helped our shy dog come out of his shell while we were away. We are so pleased!”
“Jodi provided excellent and generous care for my dog. She put time into getting all the details right and genuine care towards my dog. I appreciated her updates and checkins. My dog was a happy clam. Will book with her again. ✅”
About: Hi! I have always loved animals. I have had dogs my entire life since we adopted my first dog, a black lab, from the humane society when I was 5. I have also volunteered at the humane society for many years on a regular basis. I am home full time right now and my priority is giving the animals I look after the best possible care and of course lots of love! I just want them to be happy and comfortable with me. Reach out with any questions you may have. This is my main job at the moment so I have a very flexible schedule during the week. Therefore, my number one priority is making sure your pet is happy and safe while at home or out on a walk or hike! I have no pets myself right now because I live in a small apartment so I have a lot of time and energy to care for your dogs and cats. I have cared for many of my own pets, and they lived happy, long lives. With me, you have a trustworthy, competent, and caring animal lover.
“Trisha cared for our elderly (but spunky!) cat while we were traveling. She was communicative, caring, and super friendly. Perfect mix of following instructions and taking initiative where needed. I’m so grateful that we found someone to care for Kitty when we’re away! Will definitely book Trisha again, and would highly recommend her to others.”
“I've been so lucky to find someone who understands my sometimes fearful/reactive senior rescue dog. Marielle is so kind and did all the right things to make introductions with my dog a positive experience for her. There are very few other people I would trust to take my 65 pound shepherd/bully mix out on a walk and not have to worry. Having another person I know Winnie trusts makes life so much less stressful when I have busy weeks at work, and Winnie is so happy to have a new friend to hang out with.”
About: Although I have never owned a dog myself, I have several years of experience caring for family dogs. My sister has had a dog since 2016, and my mom got a dog in 2023. I regularly help care for them when my family is out of town, including feeding them on schedule, providing fresh food and water, taking them on walks, and making sure they are safe and comfortable. While I do not have extensive pet-sitting experience, I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and caring for them with patience, love, and responsibility. I would be grateful for the opportunity to care for your furry friend and appreciate the trust you place in me. I am a full-time student during the weekdays and a mom to a 6 six year old girl who also loves dogs. I am available in the evenings to take your dog on a walk. I am also available anytime on the weekend to board your pup or to take them for walks. I make sure dogs are safe and comfortable while in my home and I let them lead their walks. I keep them on a secure leash at all times, pay attention to their surroundings, allow them time to sniff and explore, and make sure they release enough energy without getting them overtired.
About: I grew up with my Australian Shepherd, who was part of my family my entire life, and I helped care for her throughout her senior years. I now have my own cat, Emerald, and my family recently welcomed a terrier puppy named Edna. I also have experience caring for friends’ cats, as well as a neighbor’s and family friend’s Chihuahua and a family’s Golden Retriever. I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs, including pets with different personalities and energy levels. I’m responsible, patient, and attentive, and I take pride in providing the same loving care I would want for my own pets. I’ll be leaving my medical assistant position as I prepare to start PA school next year, so I’ll have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I’m able to spend quality time with pets rather than simply stopping by, and I’m happy to work around their individual routines and needs. I’m excited to use this time before PA school doing something I genuinely love! I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll follow their normal routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs, while also keeping your home clean and secure. I’ll send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are happy and in good hands!
About: I'm a mother, former teacher, and HUGE animal lover! I’ve been a SPCA & Marin Human Society volunteer, foster parent to rescue dogs for 25+ yrs. I used to work at All Animals Emergency Hospital in SF so understand animal safety and have extensive experience with caring pets and administering medications if needed. I have older children who grew up around animals and who also happen to absolutely love dogs (and all animals). They will often help play and socialize with them if appropriate. I have experience caring for senior dogs, blind dogs and pets with special needs (i.e. medication and specific diet/nutritional requirements). I currently work from home and grateful to have a flexible schedule so I can prioritize caring for your furry friends and take them on walks as much as possible. I work from home and available for pet sitting, walking and boarding. I love to walk/hike be outside (morning, afternoon and evening) and available 7 days a week! I am conveniently located by Marin Country Mart by Larkspur Courts Apartments with amazing dog walking trails, a dog park and pond. Lots of opportunities for socializing with other friendly dogs in the neighborhood. I work from home so can take your pup outside anytime and make sure they get enough exercise and sunshine. I have teenage children who absolutely adore dogs and any furry animal we bring home as they grew up fostering kittens, puppies, rabbits and more! We have walking paths steps away with a dog park (if you like) and duck pond and other trails along Corte Madera creek and Marin County Mart in Larkspur. Lots of furry friends are welcome in this area!
About: Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover with two cats of my own, and I absolutely adore caring for pets of all kinds. Whether you have energetic dogs that need daily walks and playtime, independent kitties who want some extra snuggles, or any other furry (or scaly!) friends, I’m experienced and confident giving them the attentive, affectionate care they deserve. While you’re away, I’ll keep your pets happy and comfortable in their familiar environment, stick to their normal routines, provide plenty of love and exercise, and make sure your home stays safe and tidy. You can relax knowing your beloved companions are in trustworthy, caring hands! I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m highly available for drop-ins, overnight stays, and house sitting whenever you need me. Your pets will always receive prompt and attentive care! I prioritize your pets’ safety and well-being above all else. In your home, I follow your exact instructions and routines to the letter — from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes. I’m a responsible, non-smoker with a clean background, and I treat your space with the same care as my own.
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats my whole life, and have experience with all ages as well! I’ve worked with high energy large dogs, as well as senior animals that require special attention. I appreciate every pet I come across and promise to treat them as I would my own! I’m a recent college graduate and work part time. On Wednesdays and Sundays I’m free to give your pet the love and attention they deserve! I don’t offer services in my own home, but I promise follow any of your pet’s specific needs and other house rules to the letter!
“Madelyn checked-in on our Domino while we were out on a roadtrip over a long weekend. She went above and beyond to make sure our four-legged friend’s needs are met. She sent us daily photos and updates while we were away so it’s really convenient. I would highly recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Ross
Trisha was a great caregiver for my very scaredy cat. She made sure she found him each day even though he hid from her, even getting down on the floor to talk to him while he was under the bed. I appreciated her thoughtful reports each day, letting me know how she attempted to interact with him even though he was being very aloof. I'm sure Trisha's calm manner and soothing voice were a comfort to Siggi, even though he didn't really show it. I know it was a comfort to me to know that she was there for him when I was away. Thank you, Trisha.
Had a great experience. Parker is friendly, on time and always sends photos of the outings with my dog. He came three times a day for three days in a row while I was out of town and I returned to a very happy dog would recommend and will book with Parker again when I need to leave town.
Erin stepped in on a few hours notice and di a wonderful job of keeping my neurotic poodle company and entertained. She was prompt, responsive, resourceful, and such a pleasant young woman to work with! I'd ask her to dog sit again in a heartbeat!. Dr. Wendy Everett
Sophie was was warm and professional and related to my standard poodle in an easy manner. She's a terrific cmmunicator, giving me thoughtful and timely updates. She clearly loves dogs and has a special way with my rather diffident dog. I was extremely impressed with her and would work with Sophie again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ross is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $30 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 October 2026, there are 9,913 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ross. 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 .
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 , 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 Ross. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
