“Lauren was a pleasure. I have two cats and she was comfortable around them. Lauren is friendly and handled the care of my cats exactly like I asked. She was timely and sent pictures. She asked questions so she was clear in what I needed and she made sure everything was tidy when her cat sitting came to a close. I recommend her and will use her next time. Thank you Lauren.”

About: I've always had pets and we are always volunteering to help our friends and recently a friend suggested I do Rover. We have a sweet yellow lab named Lucca ("the big easy") and he is great with ALL dogs. We fostered 7 senior dogs through Muttville in SF from chihuahua to English Mastiff and got them all adopted. We love puppies but hope they are potty trained. We live in Southern Marin with lots of places to walk. My son (12-yrs) is also an avid animal lover, and we never meet a dog we don't try to say hi to and often end up narrating for. Hope to see your furry baby soon!! I'm currently working part-time so have plenty of time to take care of your pup. Also, I would be open to dog-walking if you find you need extra help during the day. While I do not have a fenced yard there are several trails around Tiburon and neighborhoods to walk so happy to take your baby on walks with Lucca and I and if Sam is home from school, I am sure he will join us too!

“Caroline did a great job checking in with my kitty! When I leave my cat alone she gets stressed out and lets me know when I get back by acting out. Caroline was able to reduce her stress when I had to leave (in the middle of moving in) and my kitty was happy and well behaved when I got back. I loved all of the photos she sent each check-in and knowing she was being cared for. Will be booking with her again!”

About: I'm the friend who everyone asks to take care of their dog (including senior dogs). I love our furry friends—and appreciate every families trust. I raised a Bichon puppy and later cared for her as a 12 year old senior dog. I have fostered and helped to train 4 rescue dogs through the Milo Foundation and frequently pop by to volunteer walk Milo dogs. I am an executive who works from home so I am at the dog's side non-stop and have the flexibility to take several walks a day. I'm also a 5 minute drive to Blackie's Pasture for longer walks. I have a super clean home. The dogs are allowed everywhere. I have a very clean, safe home. I also have access to popular dog parks/walks. I pay close attention to dietary restrictions, etc. And when it comes to passing another dog on leash I always ask if the dog is friendly. I'm a mom to an 11 year old—I care for dogs like they are kiddos.

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!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have been caring for pets of friends and family for many years. For over 2 years in the U.S., I’ve been doing house sitting and dog walking, and I truly value the trust owners place in me when they leave their home and pets in my care. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, from small companion dogs to large, active breeds, as well as mixed breeds. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, walks, and individual personalities. I understand how important it is for pets to feel calm, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m very mindful of cleanliness, order, and respecting the home as if it were my own. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building a calm, trusting connection with them❤️ My goal is to build a trusting connection where both pets and owners feel relaxed and confident. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! My flexible schedule allows me to spend a lot of quality time with your pets. I love being around them, keeping them company, and making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day😌 I love playing with dogs, and I can also teach them new commands if you’d like. When we go for walks, I give them my full attention and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I also enjoy feeding them and giving them any treats they’re used to having and that you approve of. I’ll usually brush them as well and try to keep their routine as close as possible to what they’re used to. If they enjoy socializing, we can go to a dog park or meet other dogs during our walks. And if they prefer to avoid other dogs, I’m happy to choose quieter routes and give them the space they need💛 I can give them their medication in specific time) And of course I love them, I think that it’s very important for dogs as for people. My behavior is different with all dogs, because all of them have their own character and favorite/unloved things and their safety and comfort are on the first place for me.

“Laura was fantastic! I was very worried to leave my elderly cat while out of the country but she eased all of my concerns. Punctual, respectful, and intuitive to animals personal needs. She was also very resourceful recommending her vet in case of emergency since I am new to the area and making sure I left emergency contacts. She also checked on some things around the house for me which was awesome. Came home to a happy cat and happy home. Will use her more in the future for sure!”

About: I have had pets of my own, they were my besties. These days, I get my fill delighting in other people's pet(s). In addition to having my own animals over the years, I've cared for a multitude of pets, including dogs, cats, fishes, turtles, horses, rabbits, and more. I find that pets have such a unique and similar personalities. Some interesting quirks and characteristics have made a lasting impression. I have experience with big and small dogs, young and senior dogs, walking, running, adventuring with dogs both on and off leash, administering medications and supplements, maintaining routines, and providing companionship and attentive care. I'm gentle, observant, and sensitive to each animal's individual needs and comfort level. I enjoy nature and animal in general, and appreciate quiet, peaceful, sanctuary-like homes and tend to be very respectful of both the animals and the spaces entrusted to me. I pay attention to safety, so owner’s can be at ease and have a peace of mind. It’s nice when I am able to get into a rhythm and established semblance of steady routine of feeding, quality time, affection, exercise, sleep, relaxation, and companionship with the animals. I'm gentle, observant, and sensitive to each animal's individual needs and comfort level.I pay attention to safety, so owner’s can be at ease and have a peace of mind.

About: I’ve always loved all animals, but dogs have truly become my heart and my passion. I’m lucky to share my life with two beautiful pups of my own, and with over ten years of experience caring for dogs of every personality and breed, I’ve fallen in love with treating each one as family. Caring for them isn’t just something I do—it’s something I genuinely cherish! Thank you for considering me. I am currently open any day of the week which is quite unique for me! And want to spend every moment helping animals and their owners. Lots of cuddles (as much as they allow me lol) and outdoor activities - typically atleast two walks per day and more if weather permitting! However weather never has stopped me from walking in nature with them if that’s what they enjoy! I take care of the home like I do my own and treat your fury children just like I do my babies! Spoiled :)

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, so caring for them has always come naturally to me! From walks and playtime to cuddles, feeding routines, and making sure they feel safe and loved, I’m comfortable with all the little things that make a dog happy. I’ve also had a cat for about four to five years now, so I understand the different personalities and needs that come with caring for pets. I’m attentive, reliable, and the kind of person who will probably take way too many photos of your pet while you’re away(yes I am happy to send them and keep you updated:)). My goal is to make sure your fur baby feels loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re gone! I joined Rover recently because I work from home and have extra time on my hands throughout the week to dedicate to your pet. I am flexible and am happy to drop in and or walk your furry friend/s. I live in an apartment, so I ensure that I lead an active lifestyle whether I'm working remotely, running, checking out new places with friends, or in the gym. I'm looking to add pet care onto my list once again. If I’m in your home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I respect your privacy and follow your instructions whether it's feeding, walks, play, meds, bedtime routine aka whatever your pet needs to feel happy and secure. I try to keep everything as normal as possible so they feel right at home even when you're away! And finally, I am responsible! I make sure to follow all instructions with receipts! :) (meaning if I'm scheduled to give meds at specific time/ add vitamins or take a walk, I will give photo updates as well)

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 been around dogs my entire life, and caring for them comes naturally to me.

Whether it’s playtime, walks, or simply providing companionship, I’ll make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away Im currently looking for as many opportunities as possible as my schedule has opened up. Currently im taking same day booking but I am open to consistent weekly work. I first ask what is expected of me , and going from there. In the past I’ve taken care of dogs in kennels, fenced off, indoor, and anyway the owner sees fit ensuring the safety of the pet ❤️

Grace was absolutely awesome in caring for my ill cat, Stella. She fed Stella in small bits, made sure she drank (and used the litter box.) Of equal, or more, Grace made sure that Stella was comfortable. She sat with her, snuggled her, took her out back with supervised visits. Stella was in very good shape each time I came home, which has not always been the case in the recent past. In the meantime, Grace developed a lovely relationship with my 11-year-old dog who is full of beans and wants all the attention all of the time.I needed someone to stay with Stella while I was away from the home for larger chunks of time. I couldn't leave Stella for more than a few hours, so Grace filled in and visited with her during those periods. Grace checked in with me regularly, was extremely attentive to Stella's needs, followed all instructions. I was very comfortable having her in my home, and caring for my medically fragile cat. I will hire her again. She is amazing!

Megan is great with my shy kitties. They've warmed up to her after only 2 bookings. She even found and cleaned up the places where one of the cats threw up. I didn't think to mention where the cleaning supplies were. She also suggested something to give cats help with hairballs. She clearly knows and cares about cats. For the reports, she always takes lots of photos and lets you know how your cats are doing. I feel confident my cats are well taken care of when Megan is cat sitting.

I've been so lucky to find someone who understands my sometimes fearful/reactive senior rescue dog. Marielle is so kind and did all the right things to make introductions with my dog a positive experience for her. There are very few other people I would trust to take my 65 pound shepherd/bully mix out on a walk and not have to worry. Having another person I know Winnie trusts makes life so much less stressful when I have busy weeks at work, and Winnie is so happy to have a new friend to hang out with.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Strawberry

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Strawberry is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $56 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 10,513 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Strawberry. 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 Strawberry. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% 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.
