Bobbie was above and beyond amazing with my dogs. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She did everything I asked and more with her thoughtfulness. I confide in her work ethic and would recommend her to anyone who needs Petcare while they’re out of town!

Ra-chel was absolutely wonderful! She was communicative, punctual, and followed all of the instructions I gave her. I have a puppy and a 3-year-old dog with anxiety, and she took the time to make sure both of them were comfortable and cared for. She sent plenty of updates and photos—and from the looks of it, they were both very happy! I felt completely at ease knowing they were in good hands. We will definitely be using her services again. Highly recommend!

About: Hi, I’m Ken 👋 I bring years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all temperaments, from playful pups to anxious and senior dogs who need a little extra patience. I’m a PAWS of Coronado Volunteer Behavior Training Level 1 graduate, and I’ve spent years volunteering in shelter environments where safety, calm handling, and compassion truly matter. I’ve also worked alongside canine police officers in training scenarios, giving me a strong foundation in reading dog behavior, maintaining control, and building trust through calm, consistent energy. Dogs tend to respond quickly to me — and both dogs and kids seem to sense that steady, grounded disposition. Every walk is about more than exercise. It’s about trust, structure, and care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and every client with the respect and reliability I’d expect for my own family. I maintain a structured weekly schedule so I can be dependable and fully present for each pet: • Mondays: Early mornings available (6:00–9:00 AM) Afternoon & evening available (2:30–10:00 PM) • Tuesdays: Available after 3:00 PM • Wednesdays: Available after 10:00 AM • Thursdays: Open availability • Fridays: Available after 4:00 PM • Weekends: Flexible availability I only accept bookings I can fully commit to, ensuring every walk or visit is calm, safe, and unhurried. How I Care for Pets Whether I’m caring for pets in my client’s home or during walks and drop-in visits, my approach is centered on safety, structure, and trust. I take time to understand each dog’s routine, temperament, and any training cues or boundaries already in place. I follow the owner’s instructions closely and keep things consistent, because dogs thrive on routine and calm leadership. I’m trained in reading body language and stress signals, which helps me adjust in real time and keep pets comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I’m respectful, organized, and low-impact. I leave the space as I found it and provide updates so owners feel informed and at ease. During walks, I prioritize safe leash handling, situational awareness, and positive reinforcement. I don’t rush walks — I allow time for exercise, enrichment, and mental stimulation. Above all, I treat every pet as an individual. Some dogs want adventure, others need reassurance. My goal is always the same: a calm, safe, and positive experience for both the pet and their owner.

Tally was wonderful with my last-minute request to look in on my dog and take her for a walk when I needed to be away for most of the day and night. She took good care of my dog and took care to secure the house. I happily recommend Tally as a reliable pet care professional and I will use her services in the future if she is available.

I am currently unemployed, so have lots of time to tend to your babies! Mainly looking to do dog walking, occasional drop in visits and if things work out well also boarding in my home! Im very flexible with days and times. So lets chat and work something out! I have a fenced in backyard and am able to crate your dogs if necessary. Whatever you do in your home can easily be mimicked in mine.

Jayna took the time and effort to make sure Blaze was taken care of. She took care of his basic needs and provided attention and play time. She ensured he was fed, had access to clean water, and ensure he had his necessary bathroom breaks. Strongly recommend Jayna for any type of dog care service!

Maureen came to my place when I had to be away for an overnight trip. She took AMAZING care of my kitty Edmund by making sure he took his meds. She came armed with cat treats and a pill popper. I love how prepared she came. She is an experienced animal sitter and I will definitely book her again.

About: I have 2 years of dog sitting experience, including caring for dogs of different sizes and energy levels. I’m reliable, attentive, and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience house sitting and serving with high school students at my church, which has strengthened my patience, communication, and responsibility—qualities I bring to every pet care job. Whether your pet needs playtime, a calm presence, or just someone to stick to their routine, I’m here to help! I’m currently committed to flight school. My schedule is different everyday. Sometimes I’m flying, sometimes my event gets canceled. My schedule for the next day comes out 3pm the day before, so planning other activities is pretty spontaneous. But I want something I can do on the side that’s flexible and financially rewarding so that I can save money to pay off my student loans, invest, and take my girlfriend on some dates! When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure to follow their routines closely to help pets feel safe and comfortable. I keep the environment clean, calm, and secure—always double-checking doors, gates, and food instructions. During walks, I stay alert and prioritize the dog’s safety, using secure leashes and avoiding risky situations.

About: I don’t have any professional experience when it comes to dogs but I’ve always been around dogs growing up and have always loved their company. Being around family members and friends dog over the years makes me confident and comfortable around animals. Currently almost around my roommates dog, she’s full of energy and we go on daily walks. A recent VET so my schedule is pretty open right now, just looking to help others take care of their fur babies in my free time. I care for pets as if they were my own, with the utmost care so they are safely returned and happier than when they left home. Respect is important and it’s always important to treat others and their fur babies how you would want you and your fur baby to be treated when you’re not around.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Spring Valley

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Spring Valley on Rover is $22.2 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 8,979 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Spring Valley. 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 Spring Valley 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 Spring Valley. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.
