About: I have had a pup of my own since he was 5 months. He’s given me lots of experience on how to house train and how to teach a dog manners amongst all the other shenanigans that comes with owning a dog. I’m also a part-time caregiver for seniors in their homes. I help assist them with daily tasks such as chores, cooking, as well as toileting and assistance with standing/sitting. This job has taught me patience and how to gently care for another as if they were my family. I’m currently a student who is also a part-time caregiver for seniors. My only class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:20am-12:20pm, and my job schedule includes whatever client I am assigned to at the time. My schedule is very open, so I am flexible! I have a fenced yard with my one dog who hangs out with me when I am home. He is house-trained and well behaved, so he does not need a crate when I am gone. Though, I am able to easily crate your pup if that is what they need. I’d love to keep your dog company during check-in’s or stays, ensuring they feel safe and are given tons of pets while you are away!

About: I foster dogs from a nearby shelter and post them on social media to find them. Families tend to focus on the “hopeless” ones. Just to show how lovable they really are and how anybody would be in a bad mood if they had to live in a cold cage. I guarantee your pets will have a blast! Unless they just like laying around all day, then we could do that too. I am a college student, but I have a really open schedule. I’m practically always free, just hit me up and I’ll usually be able to hang out with your furry friend! I like to give treats a lot so if you don’t want your pal gain a couple of pounds, that's about the only thing you have to worry about happening to your pup! At my house, dogs are always going up and down on the couches. It’s really no problem at all and I’ve got a pretty decent sized backyard with a high fence to keep them from running off and lots of parks just a light walk away!

About: What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my genuine passion for providing a fun and nurturing experience for your pets. I love taking dogs on energizing walks in nature, ensuring they get the exercise they need. I enjoy playing fetch and sunbathing with them, and I’m attentive to their feeding, bathing, and medical needs. Additionally, as a professional massage therapist, I can offer your furry friend soothing neck massages to help them relax and feel pampered. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priorities. I am currently working part-time as a substitute teacher, massage therapist, and do pelvic steaming consultations from home, so I have a flexible and open schedule to care for your pets. I will offer loving support and friendly care to your pets while you are away. I understand they may miss you so I will make sure to give them plenty of attention.

About: I’m patient with animals. Consistent noises like a baby whining doesn’t bother me as much as others. I don’t overwhelm the animals to get to know me, I let them warm up to me first. I also just enjoy being around them. I’m open to all the days of the week at the moment. I cant accept anything before 9 am and after 10pm though, and don’t do overnight pet sitting. I make sure I’m known first in the house so they know I’m there, if there accepting of it, I’ll go pet them and give them attention, but if there being more distant I’ll naturally give them there space and let them warm up to me. I’ll treat them as if they were my own pet.

“Gloria has been absolutely amazing with my puppy Rocket! During our busy work weeks, she would pop in to get him out of his kennel, make sure he was well cared for, and always cleaned up after him. She even took the time to teach him little tricks, which was such a sweet bonus and showed how much she genuinely cares and brought him toys she thought he would like. I completely trust her with my dog, and that peace of mind means everything to me. I plan to keep booking with her in the future and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and attentive pet care”

About: Hi! I’m 20 years old and work at an animal care hospital, where I care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities every day. Because of my hands-on experience in a veterinary setting, I’m confident recognizing signs of stress or illness and providing attentive, safe care. I have dogs of my own and have dogsat before, so I truly understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’m comfortable caring for puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, and those with special routines. I’m energetic, friendly, and love long walks and active playtime — but I’m also happy to stick to your dog’s usual schedule to keep them comfortable. I’m flexible and can work around both your schedule and your pet’s needs. You can expect regular updates and photos so you always feel at ease while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own — with patience, structure, and lots of love. I’d love to meet your pup! 🐾 I plan my schedule ahead of time to make sure I can give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. I’m organized and responsible, and I do my best to work around my school and work schedule to accommodate pet visits. Your pets’ routines and comfort are always important to me! 🐾 When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure. During drop-ins or walks, I make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment based on their energy level and personality. I always refresh water, clean up any messes, and ensure your home is left exactly how I found it. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for animals in both professional and personal settings. I have worked with dogs for over three years, including experience at a pet resort where I was responsible for supervising and caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. My experience includes feeding, administering routine care, monitoring behavior and well-being, maintaining clean and safe environments, providing exercise and enrichment, and making sure each pet receives plenty of individual attention. I also have experience working in a grooming facility, which helped me become comfortable handling dogs with different temperaments and needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience caring for horses and other livestock, so I am confident working with both small and large animals. Animal care is something I take very seriously. I understand how difficult it can be to leave your pets with someone else, so my goal is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. I am attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. I am will be starting school at Cal Poly in the fall studying animal science. I do have a job at a dog kennel but have long enough breaks to be able to check on the dogs and I work about 3-4 days a week. I ensure all the animals have the proper amount of food everyday, along with making sure they have enough water. If there is no doggy door I let the animals out as frequently as needed. I always make sure they have lots of walks, playtime, and cuddles.

“Karah was amazing with my sweet Peach! Karah was consistent in coming at the right time, she played with Peach, followed all the directions I asked of her, even cleaned the food bowls, and took pictures everyday for me to see. Just knowing Peach was in good hands made my trip more fun not having to worry about her. If you need a sitter Karah should be at the top of your list. Highly recommend!”

About: Growing up with horses, I developed my passion for animals at a young age. I ran a petsitting business for 7 years in Charlotte, NC and am aiming to get started again here on the Central Coast! Experience includes house sitting, livestock care, dog walking, and drop-in care. I do currently work full-time 12 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I am available in the evenings from 5 to 10 still. Fridays through Sunday are fully available. For seven years, I provided house sitting for many repeat customers that travelled often and for extended periods for work. I have also worked on various horse farms. My breadth of experience allowed me to be flexible with any accommodations you may have. I do have a my dog, Coco, that likes to join along but this is not a requirement.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Sisquoc

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 321 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sisquoc. 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 Sisquoc. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 91% 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 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.
