About: I started pet sitting by taking care of my friends’ cats and dogs whenever they travel. As a travel lover and a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to leave your pets with someone you can truly trust. I always want my own cats to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while I’m away, so I try to give my friends’ pets that same level of care and attention. I work mostly from home, which gives me a lot of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I can easily make time for drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company throughout the day. Since I’m usually working on a flexible schedule, I can adapt to each pet’s usual routine and needs. I always try to make pets feel safe and comfortable by following their usual routine as closely as possible. When caring for pets in their own home, I respect their space and make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box or regular potty breaks, plenty of playtime, and lots of attention and company. I also understand that every pet has a different personality, so I’m happy to give them cuddles or simply give them space—whatever makes them feel most comfortable!
“Alacia was super communicative and sent tons of super cute pics of our cat ?. She helped with a few extra requests we made to make sure everything was good at our apartment while we were away.”
About: I started my career in veterinary services at 16 by volunteering for a small, non-profit rescue in Los Angeles. Now, I work at an animal hospital in the city and pet-sit for a roster of clients. I specialize in senior animal care, but adore pets of all ages! Our animal hospital is closed from 12-2pm, so I take advantage of this break by attending to any pet-sitting/walking related care. I have odd days off as well, so I am flexible for day-to-day care. I use a trauma-informed, consent-based approach to any animal I interact with. My career involves working with animals who are at their most stressed state, which allows me to understand how to cultivate the absolute most comfortable experience.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for many years including dogs of all ages and sizes. I also live near lots of parks which has allowed me to explore and have tons of fun with our furry friends! I am more flexible on weekends and can get to various parts of the city/Marin but can work with weekdays too. Definitely message me and we can discuss! I make sure to let the dog take its time in introducing its home to me and will be very careful and respectful in their home.
About: Hi there! I'm excited to get to know your pup. I have experience with all different types of dogs, including strong and reactive dogs. I love to walk and am looking forward to giving your dog lots of love! I have a flexible corporate job / WFH, so I can accommodate different scheduling needs. Please let me know when is best for you and we can discuss. I am very communicative and cognizant of your house rules/norms. I want to make sure your pup has the very best time with me, but also provide a sense of normalcy.
About: Hello, I'm Spryng:) I've had a dog for most of my life, so caring for animals is second nature to me. I'm a huge nature lover and spend a lot of time outdoors, so your pup will always get fresh air, movement, and lots of attention. I have a very warm, calm personality and love building trust with animals at their own pace. I also have a "puphew" who I adore and care for often! I joined Wag! because I'm not currently in a position to have my own dog, but I truly miss being around them and love being of service however I can. I'll treat your dog with the same love and care I would my own 🤍 I’m currently working full time, but i WFH monday & friday & am always home on the weekend! I enjoy going outside everyday so your dog will have a good balance between in door & outdoor! i live right next to GGP :) perfect for walks and sleepovers! in a studio apartment as well. Spacious enough for larger dogs & for zoomies!!
“Megan was amazing with our beagle. She was communicative, respectful and sent tons of photos and updates! She responded to our beagle’s needs (shy, needs outdoor time) and our dog was so happy under her care. Highly recommend this sitter.”
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I’m patient, reliable, and understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, sniffing every tree, or just wants company, I’ll make sure they feel safe and cared for. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, keep routines consistent, administer basic medications if needed, and send plenty of photo updates so you know your pet is having a great time. I’ll treat your dog like they’re my own. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve cared for pets for friends, family, and neighbors over the years. I’m excited to build my profile by providing dependable care and making sure every pet feels comfortable and loved. I’m getting married next year and would love to make a bit of additional income doing something I’m genuinely passionate about :) I work remotely with a flexible schedule, so I have plenty of flexibility for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Mondays are my in-office day, but otherwise I’m available most weekdays and weekends and am happy to work around your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll always follow your instructions closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, preferred walking routes, or special routines. I believe in clear communication and will send photo updates after every visit so you always know how your pet is doing. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: I'm a lifelong pet guardian who has worked in veterinary offices, animal shelters, and volunteered at an animal sanctuary. I'm confident with all ages and have substantial experience with behavioral challenges. Caring for / being with / exercising / playing with animals is an integral part of my life. I have lived with dogs and sometimes cats for all of my adult life. Prior to pet-sitting, I meet the animal(s) and guardian to discuss their companion's routines regarding: feeding, activities, timing, cleaning supplies and medical needs. I typically pet-sit in the animals home. I keep the housing/yard/litter boxes clean. Routine consistency: Strictly adhere to their dog-walking routes, feeding times, and medication schedules.Security: Double-check gates, doors, and fences upon entry and exit to prevent accidental escapes.Environment management: Secure hazardous items (e.g., cleaning supplies, human food) and adjust thermostats for weather extremes
About: I was born with 2 Dachshunds in the family that I wrestled within my first years of learning to crawl and have lived with a dog most years of my life. I once had a Doberman Pincher whom I raised & turned into a service dog in the Air Force when I was given an overseas assignment and couldn't take him. For years I had a diabetic Chow Chow that I could leave in the back of a convertible car with the roof down on Hollywood Blvd by the Chinese Theater while I went to a show and knew the car and puppy would be as I left them hours earlier (Note: that was the 1990s... Hollywood Blvd. is a different animal now). I’ve tackled Pit Bulls mistaking my 5 lb. Chihuahua for a squirrel. I’ve crossed paths with multiple coyotes with my Chi’s in the Presidio & have great accuracy throwing rocks. I'm an IT engineer who works at home and sits long periods & my dogs absolutely motivate me to exercise with them daily and there are many places to do so in Dog City, USA! I've been working remotely and keep my pups with me. We exercise daily at the beach, Presidio or at any of the great parks in the area. We would go to Ocean Beach more often if not for all of the stinky stuff that washes up on shore that they just can't resist rolling around in (a dead walrus tops a skunk's stink by a mile) necessitating a bath(s).... in tomato juice? Safety is critical! I have a fenced yard which makes dogs possible in the city. They are never exposed to the street, so there’s zero chance of a mishap with escaping. I usually take my McNab/Border Collies (who were raised by Chihuahuas 😊) to Crissy Field, the Presidio, the Beach or Golden Gate dog park daily, so my dogs are quite social
“Thank you Tania for your visit today. Boo-Boo was happy to meet you and looks forward to seeing you next month! You were on time, and understood his daily routine needs. I know he will be in good hands during our travel dates. Thanks Again!”
About: I have decades of experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages breeds. I'm a stay at home parent with older kids that would dote over your pet as much as they obsess over our resident Great Pyrenees. Your pet is part of our family as long as they're with us. I'm a stay at home parent so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule for house sitting, boarding and last minute care for your pet. I have a fenced yard where your pet has access to our home and outside. I am home most of the time to tend to their needs and can help with medication administration as well.
“Gage was the perfect match for our new puppy Ash. He was punctual, knowledgeable and very comfortable with Ash. We’re lucky to have found him and will definitely continue to use his services. Thank you ? Ash is looking forward to seeing you again soon.”

About: I've had a rescue dog named Boo, she was a senior cockerspaniel that lived for 16 years. She had low energy, was very calm, and easy to take care of. I understand for a senior dog you need to take your time with them. I've also dealt with a senior German Shepherd who has Degenerative Myelopathy. I had to express his anal glands/ bladder and change his diapers I'm currently working part-time, so i'll have time to take care of your dogs! I'm free almost everyday except when i have to work at the dog kennel and the food truck I have a fenced backyard and a room for the dog to live in. At my clients home, ill be attentive and keep the dog company.

So happy with Laura’s kitty visits! She came over in person to meet the kitties and check out their litter robot and food supply. She is sweet, trustworthy, communicative and very reliable. I got lots of cute pictures and updates. I’m booking her again ! Just found my new cat sitter and I’m thrilled
Had to make an unexpected trip and chose Yuki to care for my two cats based on her outstanding reviews. She exceeded my expectations and engaged with my cats, which is not easy for strangers to do! I appreciate the care Yuki provided and will certainly check her availability first the next time I’m 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
We absolutely loved having Rachel look after our cats. She went above and beyond for our boys, even buying litter and new toys for them, and was incredibly attentive to their needs the whole time. We got thoughtful updates, and it was clear they were very comfortable with her. We came home to happy, relaxed cats and a clean space. We’d 100% book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter. 🐾💛

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 Sausalito 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.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
