About: I’ve been pet sitting on and off for about 10 years. My main priority is safety and love for all animals. I’ve had 2 beautiful dogs growing up so tending to their need comes naturally to me. Not only do I love it, but I 100% understand how important they are and as a person who’s owned pets, how much you want them to be in good hands. I’m currently taking a long break from my career so I will have undivided attention for your pets. I’m able to take them on walks if wanted, and solely focus on them. Clients home: do what is asked/ always respect homes My home: I live in a spacious loft with my boyfriend near the beach. We have plenty of space and comfy spaces for them. Our neighbors all have small-large pets and walk them everyday! Outside of our place are little grass areas where they can go to the bathroom or sniff around.

Thank you, Rachel, for the drop-in visit! I always feel nervous leaving my two corgis alone for several hours, so it was incredibly helpful to know they would at least get their treats and a potty break to cheer them up. I really appreciate Rachel's communication, the questions she asked beforehand, and all the photos she took!

About: For many years throughout my life, I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments — from bouncy puppies learning their first commands to gentle seniors who just need a little extra patience and love. What sets me apart is my ability to connect with each dog on their level, tuning into their personality and needs to make sure they feel safe, understood, and adored. I’ve also had the honor of caring for my family’s beloved dogs, Sandy and Serenity (Goldador & Dingo mix), both of whom recently took their final walk to heaven. They taught me the beauty of unconditional love, the importance of mindful care in every life stage, and how to create a sense of calm and comfort even in the quietest moments. Whether it’s playtime, training, or simply keeping your pup company, I treat every dog as family — because they deserve nothing less. Pet care isn’t just part of my routine — it’s the heartbeat of my days. I love to start and end each day with time dedicated to the animals I look after, whether it’s feeding, playtime, grooming, or simply giving them the affection and reassurance they deserve. Caring for pets grounds me; it’s both a rhythm and a refuge. I’ve raised and loved cats and dogs from the tiniest, two-week-old kittens to senior companions in their golden years. That experience taught me patience, responsibility, and the joy of being fully present. Whether I’m checking in for walks, cleaning litter boxes, or curling up for quiet companionship, I treat every visit as sacred time — where trust and love grow one moment at a time. Caring for animals isn’t an errand in my life — it’s part of who I am. In my home — and in my clients’ homes — I care for pets with a blend of structure, affection, and patience. My cats grew up free to explore, guided by gentle discipline and positive reinforcement when curiosity led to a bit too much clawing. I believe in redirecting with love, rewarding good behavior, and building trust so that even the most mischievous furballs feel safe and understood. With dogs, my care is both active and nurturing. I’ve given regular baths, taught etiquette-based commands like sit, lay, and fetch, and kept their days filled with play, attention, and enrichment. As my parents grew older, I took on full responsibility for vet visits, medication schedules, and daily routines — ensuring my dogs stayed healthy, happy, and loved through every stage of life. Whether in my home or a client’s, I create a space where animals can thrive — where structure feels like love, and care is given with the same devotion I offered to my own beloved pets.

About: I am a compassionate Buddha that loves to surround myself with fur babies of all shapes colors, and sizes! I have been working with dogs,felines, and birds all my life and nothing brings me more joy. I obtained a certified vet veterinarian assistance license so I can assist injured animals as well.

About: I truly go the extra mile for those I am taking care of. From extra long walks to lots of play time, I want them to feel comfortable enough that they don’t miss their owners too much under my care. I will always adjust my schedule to the daily routine the pet requires. I never tend to stray far off time just not cause the pet discomfort At all times I make sure they are calm and happy. Making sure they don’t stray too much from the usual routine and make sure I ask all important questions for a safe stay.

About: I have had pets since I was a little kid. I also rescue animals -- up north, I have 5 cats and several rescue horses. I love animals, they are my passion! I work remote at home, so I am able to take care of pets easily and attend to their needs. I often take my own dogs with me - to grab a smoothie, go to the dog park, or take a nice long walk to an outdoor cafe. There are a few parks and walking paths in my neighborhood, plus waste disposals making bathroom breaks easy and convenient. Just down the street there is a lovely dog park, with several fenced in areas for small dogs and/or puppies that can't socialize with the larger breeds.

About: I have grown up surrounded by dogs from a chihuahua to an Australian shepherd, I was able to walk them multiple times, schedule feedings accordingly, and always schedule in playtime. I enjoy spending time with animals and like to make sure they are happy and keeping their tails wagging! I also have dog sat my neighbors dogs numerous times, making me trustworthy in handling multiple dogs at once. Overall, I will provide great care with up to date communication to give your pets a happy and welcoming stay! Pet care easily fits into my week as I am currently off of school for the summer and my part time job is very flexible, allowing me to pick up any sittings needed no matter when. I own one cat who is very friendly and can keep your pets some company and I also have a large backyard area (not fenced but will keep pets on leash) for your pets to run around. Just a short walk is a dog park that is not too crowded and can also give your pets some playtime. I also make sure to keep a schedule on all walks and sneak in some cuddle time with lots of petting!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in South Bay on Rover is $14.98 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 676 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Bay. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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 South Bay 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in South Bay. On Rover:

  • 98% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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.
