About: I'm responsible, easygoing, and genuinely love spending time with dogs. I've been wanting to get a dog of my own, but the timing isn't quite right yet. Caring for dogs through Rover is a great opportunity for me to spend time with them and spend more time outdoors. I work full time as a manager during the day, so I focus on providing care before and after work, in the evenings after 4:00pm, and on weekends. While I'm newer to pet sitting, I have lived with over 12 dogs and cats. I take safety and trust very seriously. As a manager in my full time career, I am dependable and attentive to details. I understand that every dog has unique needs.
About: I grew up with cats which was an awesome part of my childhood. More recently I've had the pleasure of having labradors. I recently lost my senior labrador of 13 years 8 months. I've also cared for friends and family cats and dogs of all varieties. I enjoy getting to know the pets personality, quirks and preferences. I enjoy meeting them all, young and old, spry and calm, toy chaser or mellow chewer. I worked as a Vet Tech trainee for 18 months while enrolled in Vet Tech classes at Foothill College. I work from home or anywhere with WiFi access. My work is flexible as far as schedule so I can work with the dogs schedule. I have a yard which has chicken netting to prevent the dog going down into the creek. But I supervise dogs closely when they are outside.
About: I understand how important it is to make sure your fur baby is well taken care of while you are away. I provide peace of mind for you when you are away from them. I provide lots of cuddles, playtime, and continuous communication with picture updates about your babies. I have had so much experience growing up on a vet farm with dogs, cats, chickens, horses and cows. I also have pets of my own who need pet sitting once in a while and have found some of the best pet sitters on Rover. I do require a meet and greet to make sure everyone is a good fit before I accept a booking. I am currently available to pet sit for most weekends. We have a fully fenced in yard with a large grassy area for play. Your dog is invited to feel at home with us depending on your preferences. I live in a great safe neighborhood to provide long walks or playtime at the doggy park nearby. I work from home three days a week and am available to take multiple walks depending on the weather. Weekends are adventure time. We can hike, play fetch or run at the two large local parks. We have a fully fenced yard for all day fun. I take multiple walks to take a break from the computer and welcome walks in our safe neighborhood.
About: I’ve been dog sitting, walking, and providing overnight care for several years, working with dogs of all sizes—from Chihuahuas to Great Dane mixes. I’m comfortable with energetic, playful dogs as well as shy or fearful pups who need patience and reassurance. For the past several months, I’ve taken shelter dogs on field trips through County of Santa Clara Animal Services, where I’ve gained experience handling dogs in new environments, on hikes, and in stimulating settings. This has strengthened my leash handling, situational awareness, and ability to read canine body language. I also have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. I understand that seniors may need a slower pace and gentle care, while puppies require consistency, structure, and positive reinforcement. My goal is always to make your dog feel safe, exercised, and loved while you’re away :) As a student, I have a structured but flexible schedule which allows me to consistently fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m typically available for morning, midday, and evening drop-in visits, and I plan my class schedule to allow time for reliable pet care commitments. Pet care fits naturally into my week—whether that means morning walks before class, midday drop-ins, or evening visits and overnights. I’m organized and intentional about managing my time, so I only accept bookings I can fully commit to. On weekends, I have even greater flexibility for longer visits, extended stays, or multiple drop-ins per day. I prioritize clear communication and reliability so you can feel confident your pet is in consistent, attentive care! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walk routes, house rules, and any specific behavioral needs. Safety is always my top priority. I double-check doors, gates, and harnesses, remain attentive on walks, and closely monitor pets during visits. I’m mindful of potential hazards and ensure your home is left exactly as I found it—clean, secure, and respected. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. I understand that trusting someone with your pet and home is a big responsibility, and I treat both with the highest level of care and respect.
About: I've had two dogs growing up and quickly became the go-to dog sitter and dog walker in my neighborhood. I'm a current college student earning a 4.0 at USC, and will bring the same diligence, commitment, and attentiveness to your pet's care to ensure that their safety is the top priority. I've cared for all sorts of pets ranging from cats, to small terriers to big Bernese mountain dogs and can assure you that whatever your pet needs, I can provide. Please reach out if you have any questions. I will make your pets a priority and can meet your pets unique needs. I’m prepared to dedicate my time and attention to your pets! I have a friendly labradoodle at home! With experience walking dogs of all sizes and needs, I know how to recognize dog body language and ensure that your dog is safe at all times.
About: I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give to my own. I'm an innatly caring person and truly enjoy making animals feel safe, confortable and loved. My goal is to make them happy while their owners are away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I structure my schedule so I have dedicated time for walks, feeding, playtime, and check ins. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets feels like a natural and rewarding part of my day. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I make sure pets receive plenty of attention, exercise, and a calm environment so they feel safe while their owner is away. My cat is very picky and doesn't like sudden changes, so I learn how to observe and identify mood changes and signs of emotional discomfort.

About: I have fostered dogs and cats in my home growing up since I was child. It was hard not to adopt them for my own, always happy to have them in my presence and care. I’m working part time currently as a behavioral technician. I am free to care for animals in the morning before work and evening to night. I am free all weekend. I have a fenced backyard, side yard, and the pets would be fine to stay in my home as well. I do have 2 dogs, a golden doodle and an Irish doodle, both very friendly. I have a cat household as well with 3 elderly cats.
“Linda has been great with Waffles. She is reliable, always responds quickly to messages, and has helped me out on short notice when my plans changed suddenly. Waffles clearly has a great time from the cute pics Linda always shares. I would highly recommend Linda to anyone!”
“While I was away for the weekend, my sister-in-law unexpectedly was no longer able to care for my dog. I reached out to Mamu, and thankfully, they were available to drop in on short notice. Later, another emergency came up where we missed our connecting flight and couldn’t make it home for an extra day. I contacted Mamu again, and once more, they came through and were able to stop by and care for my dog with very short notice. I’m incredibly grateful for their flexibility and reliability, especially under these stressful situations.”

“Ching-Chi did a wonderful job caring for our older cat! She came every day on time, spent time with our cat, and sent lots of great photos to document her visits.”

“Stephanie followed the care instructions precisely and she took a good care of my kitty. I like that in her visits she would talk to my kitty and acknowledged her and made efforts to play with her and entertain her. It really calmed my kitty and gave me peace of mind.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for over 5 years and love working with animals!! Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m responsible, patient, and always make sure pets feel safe and comfortable! I’m currently very flexible and have plenty of time to care for your pets throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, and I’ll always make sure your pets get lots of attention and care! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in my client’s home! I follow feeding schedules carefully, keep a clean environment, and pay close attention to each pet’s needs and behavior.

“Laura is the best cat sitter we have ever had!!! She is so loving and caring. She spent so much time playing with our cat, brought her toys and really got to know her. I felt at ease knowing our cat was well cared for and loved while we were away! Her updates were thorough and always included plenty of photos. I will definitely hire Laura again! Our cat has never loved any sitter as much as Laura :)”

“Sydney was kind and communicative! She made sure she had a connection with my babies before her visits, which I really appreciated. I would have her work with us again for my next trip!”

Itzel did a wonderful job taking care of Laddoo while we were away! She was reliable, communicative, and clearly put in effort to make him comfortable. Laddoo can be shy with new people, but Itzel was patient and consistent with playtime and treats, which really helped him warm up to her. She followed his care routine carefully and sent helpful updates after each visit. There was one evening when she had car trouble and arrived late, but she communicated proactively and made sure Laddoo was taken care of. She was also very receptive to feedback about safety concerns with the windows. We appreciated her genuine care and attention to detail. Would definitely book with Itzel again!

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.

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.
