About: I have formal training as a veterinary assistant (6 years) and am currently in school to become a Veterinarian so I do have a lot of hands-on with animals and how to take care of them, administer medication’s, and injections. Currently I am available full time until school starts back up in February. Throughout the week, I am able to drop in on your pet and check in. . I will be updating my schedule every week so that you guys know . I am able to provide frequent potty breaks when I take care of your pets on the weekends that does not go to say that on other days, they won’t get taken out to use the restroom haha. All the pets I’ve had in the past were given the best care from making sure all their needs were met and ensuring they weren’t put in harms way . When I walk my pets I am vigilant of other people and their dogs incase of an incident were to occur . If it is a hot day I ensure to walk them in a cool environment if feasible and always bring water incase the heat is too much . I do pay close attention to detail when it comes to my pets and your pets. I am able to trim nails and to bathe if needed. Of course, making sure water and food is available at all times and cleaning up in the case of an accident.
About: I have about 10 years of experience in caring for cats and dogs. Reliable, and passionate pet sitter. Ready to love your furry family member I offer a safe, reliable home away from home where your pet will fit seamlessly into a structured daily routine. While I work full-time, my days are anchored around dedicated "power hours" before and after work for long, brisk walks, secured backyard play, and fresh meals, ensuring dogs are content and relaxed. During your pets stay I provide a calm and welcoming home where pets can feel comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, playtime, and rest.
About: I grew up taking care of all our family pets. From chickens to goats, dogs and birds. We also never turned away a stray or dumped animal. Animal care has been and will continue being part of my daily life. I have 4 dogs and 1 foster, as well as 2 cats. You would think I wouldn't want to take care of more animals, but you'd be wrong! I respect all animals and reciprocate their feelings appropriately. My cat needs space that's okay, my dog needs an extra walk to get the wiggles out, let's go.
“Rebecca is a life-saver. She helped me out in a time of need without hesitation. The dogs love her and I appreciate that I can trust her 100%. I am grateful that Rebecca is part of my dog care team!”

About: I’ve taken care of puppies, kittens dogs and cats of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed and play with their pets. I am currently working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups and or cats. I am available to care for your pet or pets on weekends, weekdays and holidays. I cannot currently board animals at my home due to various reasons. I will be sure to offer that if I can in the future. Thank you.
About: I've had dogs my entire life and at this moment I have 2 friendly dogs; a 13 year old terrier mix and a 2 year old mini pitcher. I have a quiet clean (not scrubbed just cozy) home. Dogs are able to sit on couch, sleep with me in my king bed, have snack breaks and go in the backyard for potty breaks and to play fetch. My fenced backyard has a large grass area and a covered patio, we spend lots of time hanging out there on nicer days. I own my home in a nicer neighborhood since 2012. I'm super casual and easy going with a drug, smoke and alcohol free home. Your dogs will be spoiled! Dogs have lots of indoor and outdoor play time. If dogs have thier own dog food, I'll put the other dogs outside to make sure they get thier meal times otherwise I have plenty of blue buffalo dog food I mix with Purina. A morning potty out back while I prepare and separate dog bowls then they can all come in unless a dog is on a special diet then ill feed them separately. My backyard is fenced with locked gates. They get treats throughout the day and a dinner before bed. Then if they want to sleep on the bed with me they can otherwise there's thick blankets on the floor near me.
About: Since I was 12 animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and ages — from newborn puppies learning the ropes to sweet senior pups needing a little extra TLC. I'm patient, observant, and always adjust my care to meet each pet’s unique needs. I truly treat every animal like family. I pay close attention to their behavior, body language, and comfort. I’m also experienced with: Administering oral medications Creating enriching, safe environments for solo pets or multi-pet households Respecting routines — because pets love structure just as much as we do! Every pet deserves to feel safe, loved, and understood :) As a nursing student, I balance my studies with my passion for caring for pets. My classes and clinicals are mostly during the day, but I’m available for early morning and evening walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays on weekends or between shifts. I’m great at managing my time and making sure every pet gets the attention, exercise, and affection they need, even with a busy schedule. I’m flexible and reliable, and I always communicate clearly to fit pet care smoothly around my school commitments. Pet care is a meaningful way for me to unwind and bring joy outside of my studies — so your furry friend will always be in caring, attentive hands. I prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care above all else. Whether I’m looking after pets in my home or visiting yours, I make sure the environment is secure, calm, and welcoming. At your home, I respect your space and routines, following all your instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable and happy. I always do a safety check to remove anything that might pose a risk and ensure food, toys, and medications are given exactly as directed. I’m attentive to each pet’s needs — from gentle supervision to active engagement — and I never leave pets unattended where they could get hurt or stressed. I build trust through clear, honest communication and by being consistent in care. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I treat every animal like they’re part of my own family.

I speak English, Portuguese, Spanish, and some Russian in case you have limited English and feel comfortable using one of those. I have taken care of old dogs, puppies, dogs small, large, and In between too. I’m extremely responsible with ensuring your pet receives their medication as needed, if needed. I love to walk, but tailor my services to your dogs needs. Want me to have them socialize with my dog, done. Want me to keep the dogs separate, I can do that too. Message me and let me know what you need! Something that separates me from others: I understand some dogs are just vocal and not aggressive. I have experience sitting extremely vocal dogs who most people would think are aggressive, but really they just like to bark. Please disclose if your dog is not good around children when booking! Thank you and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s). I don’t discriminate based on gender, gender expression, religion, age, sexual orientation, race, or for any other reason. I welcome and respect all people and dogs Stay at home mom with a dog of my own, this allows me to adjust my daily schedule to your pets needs. I go on daily walks when it isn’t too hot. I have a fenced yard and a dog for your dog to socialize, but also have room to keep them separate if preferred. Dogs are fed as much and as often as requested by owner along with the amount of potty breaks. If the pet is house trained they are also allowed to be in the home. I love to give dogs treats so they can expect treats when they are over if approved by you!

About: I've been working with animals, both cats and dogs, my entire life. I love animals and spending time taking care of them. I've got personal experience with my own animals (I currently have an adorable kitty and I had many pets growing up), as well as many times where I have house/pet sit for family friends and rover clients for up to a week at a time. I'm very adaptable and kind, which makes communication between me and clients efficient and sincere. I'm currently unemployed and I would love to fill my time with taking care of fur babies. Fitting in time for playing/walking/feeding pets won't be an issue for me. I am available to feed, watch, let out, play with, walk or simply keep your animal company if they have anxiety. I'm good at following directions and can work well with clients to care for their pet in the best way possible. Depending on the day, I can also stay over night with your pet to housesit if needed (I have a lot of experience with this format).
“I would 1000% rebook Nadine! She was amazing! She did everything we needed, left great information about her check-ins, was very communicative, and just an overall fantastic experience! I’m verryyyy happy!”

About: Hi, I grew up in a pet household and have 10+ years caring for multiple dogs and cats. I have some experience administering medicine as well. I telework Wednesday- Friday and have most weekends available to walk or drop-in with your pet! I am available after 4:30pm on the weekdays and open on the weekends. If you’re close enough to me I could even drop in during the day on a weekday. I would treat your pets the same way I treat my own, like family. I understand the potential stress that can come when your pet meets someone new and am ready to make the effort to gain their trust.
About: I have taken care of animals for as long as I can remember, I have experience with puppy’s, kittens, senior pets and I enjoy being with them I work part-time night shifts and attend school to become a Veterinary Technician, so my schedule varies slightly. I keep my availability updated and am happy to accommodate early mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and many overnight pet care requests whenever possible. Please reach out if you have specific scheduling needs! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, clean, and loving environment where every pet is treated like family. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special care instructions to ensure they feel secure and stress-free. As a Veterinary Technician student, I understand the importance of proper handling, close observation, and maintaining a safe environment. I believe in building trust with both pets and their owners through dependable communication, compassion, and reliable care.
About: I've always had dogs and crate trained my dogs. I know how to train basic commands but nothing really beyond that. I do love playing with dogs and also relaxing with them as well. I do work full time but I do work from home most of the week. So my schedule is pretty flexible for the most part. I have a fenced yard, and 4 friendly dogs. We do have 2 cats but they stay outside as they don't like our dogs. I make sure the the pet I babysit is comfortable and listen to instructions on the owners requests.
“Amanda did an amazing job taking care of our two dogs. She communicated excellently, and spent quality time with them during the drop-in visit. We will definitely book with Amanda again.”

“Ashleigh was great. She took care of our rat terrier for three days. She was was flexible and very responsive to texts. Sent us pictures and checked in with us several times. Highly recommend her to watch your pets.”

About: I have grown up around pets my whole life. I have had many dogs with different personalities and preferences. One of my dogs requires special care so I am very patient and understanding! My cat is also the most spoiled guy you will ever meet so trust me I understand all the little important details that these guys and girls need! I work part time and my schedule varies. I also have weekends off. It is very flexible and can adjust days and times based on what is needed from me. I have a big fenced backyard and my own room as well. If you pet prefers to sleep in a crate we have plenty of space, but I would love to share my bed. Unless the temperature doesn’t allow my dogs personally prefer to be outside but are welcome in but can be in a separate space if needed. Everything is very flexible
About: I personally have had two dogs for 10 years whom I have cared for with pure love and attention. I have taken care of family pets as well when out of town to ensure pets still feel like a human is there to support and love them. Pets are just as much family as humans and I wholeheartedly believe that! I have a lot of time on my hands since I am currently unemployed out of choice and I am just looking to make work feel fun again before jumping back into full workforce again. I keep a close eye on pets in clients homes to ensure they are abiding by house rules while still getting to enjoy their time at home. I know sometimes dogs can be runners because I have one so I am always vigilant about doors and where they’re going to lead to. Dogs are sneaky and smart and that’s what makes them so fun but sometimes they get up to trouble so I ensure they stay on their best behavior by redirecting.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Salida
I was urgently looking for another cat sitter after having a really disappointing experience with my previous one. Then I came across Yuridia's profile, and I'm SO glad I found her! She's a 10/10 cat sitter. I had quite a few tasks for each visit, and she managed to do everything perfectly! She's thoughtful, detail-oriented, communicative, and genuinely cares about the cats she looks after. I felt so relieved knowing my cats were finally in good hands. I would absolutely recommend Yuridia to any cat parent looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Salida is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $27 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 November 2026, there are 909 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Salida. 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 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 Salida. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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 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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
