About: Hi, I’m Sam! I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember—dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, birds, and even horses. Growing up in a home where animals were part of everyday life (my dad worked in horse racing!), caring for pets has always come naturally. Though I’m new to professional dog walking, I’ve been a dedicated dog dad for over 20 years, always having two dogs by my side. I walk my own pups every day and make all of their food from scratch—yes, they’re very loved (and very spoiled!). I’ve also regularly pet sat for friends and family and am confident with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I used to have a Great Dane/St. Bernard mix, so handling large or giant breeds is second nature to me. Whether you’ve got a gentle giant or a feisty little pup, I’ll treat them like one of my own—with love, patience, and lots of behind-the-ear scritchins! Let me help your dog get the exercise, attention, and care they deserve. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to customize walks to your dog’s needs and energy level. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! My schedule varies a bit from day to day, but it’s consistent from week to week. I work some mornings and some evenings, but those shifts rarely change, so when you and your pup love me, it will be easy enough to work out a schedule that works for everyone! I am always off on Fridays and Sundays. I do not offer boarding in my own home, but I am always happy drop in to your place for play or potty breaks. Also, as my pups are cared for when I’m not around, I am also available to stay at your home for short trips!
“Audrey helped us out a lot as first-time users of Rover. She followed our instructions to a T, gave medications to our senior cat, Sweetie, and made sure to give her lots of attention. We hope to use her services again in the future. Our neighbor is also considering using Rover, so we hope to recommend Audrey when the time comes.”
“Devon provided the best care for our cat! She provided great detailed updates, and always kept us in the loop with her clear communication. She sent multiple photos daily, and we could tell Tater really warmed up to her during her visits. We are so thankful we found her and would absolutely book her again!”
About: I’ve worked with many different animals, including cats, dogs, birds, hamsters. I love working and caring for them. Patience is needed to make your furry friends feel comfortable. I’ve worked with many large dog breeds, which include malamutes, German shepherds, pitbulls and even Akita’s. I’m currently work during the day so I am free most evenings Sunday through Thursday. I have more availability on Fridays and Saturdays during the day. I make sure the pets are in safe areas for them so that they don’t get into anything that isn’t safe. I make sure to give them space but follow them just in case. I want them feel comfortable in their space.
About: I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets and have owned both cats and a dog as an adult, which was a Dalmatian—describe them as eternally young. :-) I'm an active individual whose current living situation doesn't allow pets so would love to help with yours! Those of you in the Larkspur/Greenbrae area may recognize me from walks on the local paths where I’m able to greet many dogs. While on vacation, I also seek out opportunities to contribute or volunteer for various animal causes, which you’ll see in some of my pictures. I'm retired so my schedule is generally flexible unless I'm out of town for personal reasons. Choosing a more limited radius at this point enables greater schedule flexibility, and to be close to local resources should a need arise. I will pet sit in your home so that your fur baby has all of their normal comforts and routines. I realize not all owners have a fenced yard for a dog so understand the importance of daily walks. I always welcome the opportunity to meet or chat about your needs in advance, so that you may advise of any behaviors for which I'll need to be more mindful. I care for fur babies of at least one year of age. NOTE: I only have experience providing meds to dogs, not cats. Due to allergies, I’m unable to sit in homes with cigarette smoke or with whole house carpeting (in bedrooms is fine). I'm a neat, tidy person who's very responsible--former homeowner.
“endlessly thankful for cecilia!!!! our kitty is quite the wallflower but she had him purring and showing off his cuddly personality in no time. she went above and beyond to help rocket feel comfortable and took care of him as if he were her own. couldn’t recommend more 💛”
“After a last-minute cancellation, I turned to Rover and found Krystal. She was incredibly accommodating on short notice, taking great care of my three noisy Chihuahuas while I was away. She kept me updated with photos and reassured me that they were doing well. I highly recommend her and will be reaching out to Rover & Krystal in the future.”
“Charlotte was so great with our puppy! She was responsive and flexible to help out with a next day visit request. She did outdoor play time with our puppy then got him settled for a nap.”
“Jill is prompt, very professional and possesses extensive knowledge of animals and behavior training. Our pup adored her immediately. You could not have your animal in better hands ?❤️”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have years of hands-on experience as a lifelong dog owner, and dogs seem to connect with my calm, positive energy. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away Im currently looking for as many opportunities as possible as my schedule has opened up. Currently im taking same day booking but I am open to consistent weekly work. I first ask what is expected of me , and going from there. In the past I’ve taken care of dogs in kennels, fenced off, indoor, and anyway the owner sees fit ensuring the safety of the pet ❤️
“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!”
About: As a 22 year old with a lot of experience with pets I have seen it all! From my senior dog to my new puppy and all the cats in between I have loved them and cared for them like no other. I am a current post-grad student with a fairly open schedule! I am available for drop ins, to care for them from your home and have them at my house. I have a fenced yard and a car as well for transportation. The not only safety of your pet but stability and sense of love is very important to me.
About: My daughter and I would love to take care of your pet. We specialize in happy pets. I’ve been training and taking care of dogs for over 50 years! No pet is to challenging. We are a full service pet specialist. We walk, feed, bath and train. I have worked with animals my whole life that’s over 50 years of training and taking care of dogs!

And only come home briefly during the day. Each pet will be treated with the utmost respect. And will get the correct amount of exercise according to their needs.
“Veronica was the best cat sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond to make sure Ramses was taken care of and to make sure I knew he was doing ok. I got so many pictures and updates which was amazing. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone that needs a pet sitter!”
About: Warm dog mom to a 13-year-old dachshund! I provide a structured, fun, and cozy environment with potty breaks every two hours and plenty of walks I'm home full time as I transition to my next job in the Bay Area. I can help with overnight stays, walks and general dog care! In my home, I provide a structured, cozy, and safe environment for pets. I have a small patio with no escape route, ensuring a secure outdoor space. When walking dogs, I’m highly aware of my surroundings to keep them protected at all times. I do not crate my own dog, but I’m happy to do so if that’s your preference. Every pup in my care receives the same love and attention my dog gets, regular potty breaks, and plenty of blankets to make them feel at home!
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!

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - San Quentin
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Parker was absolutely wonderful! He took such great care of our two cats, Ahsoka and Anakin, while we were away. He didn’t just make sure they were fed—he spent time playing with them, gave them their snacks, kept everything clean and cared for, and truly made us feel like our pet babies were in great hands. When we arrived home, we could tell immediately that Ahsoka and Anakin had been happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. Our home was also left in wonderful condition, which we really appreciated. There is such a sense of relief that comes with being able to travel and know that the pets you love so much are safe, happy, and being genuinely cared for. Parker gave us exactly that peace of mind. We are so grateful to him and will absolutely book with Parker every time he is available. We couldn’t recommend him more highly!
Veronica was an amazing cat sitter for my boys! Her communication was excellent from start to finish—she kept us updated regularly and gave us real peace of mind while we were away. It was clear she truly paid attention to our cat’s specific needs and preferences, which meant so much to us. She even went the extra mile to pick up some packages and deal with unexpectedly running out of their food. On top of that, she was kind and gentle with our cats and gave great daily updates. We would absolutely trust her to care for them again and highly recommend her services!
Delfina was amazing and I cannot wait to use her again! She was very communicative during and prior to her visits. She made sure to take great care of our dog, cat and even our hamster while we were away! So grateful I have someone reliable and loving to my animals I can count on while we are away!
Genna was amazing! She took great care of my cat Nutella. She brushed her, played with her, fed her and gave her lots of love. She offered to meet before and noted down everything on Nutella routine. Also a bird got into the apartment and Nutella killed it, and Genna took care of everything, even vacuumed. Genna was amazing, I highly recommend her
Claire did a great job taking care of my cat (Kermit) while I went away for 10 days over the holidays. She showed up every morning to give him his wet food, clean his litter box, play with him and give him a few pets. Kermit was in good shape and spirits when I returned. Definitely recommend and would book with her again!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in San Quentin on Rover is $44.4 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

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.
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.
