“Amy was wonderful! She dropped in to feed our little dog and keep him company while we were away, and everything went perfectly. He’s an easy guy—just needs a meal, a tummy rub, and some companionship—and Amy took great care of him. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup. Highly recommend Amy!”
“Rebooked with Andrew because I can't imagine trusting my precious baby cat and dog with anyone else! You'd think Andrew was Santa-Claws (ha, get it) from the way my dog IMMEDIATELY starts whining in excitement when he realizes "Uncle Andrew" is going to come spend time with him. My cat, who has NEVER voluntarily crawled onto my lap to sit and chill, is the total opposite with Andrew. He's both the cat AND the dog whisperer, and it's awesome. Andrew's great as always - punctual, caring, communicative, all the things that make for an excellent, trustworthy, above and beyond pet care giver.”
“Stephanie is awesome! I was so nervous using this app for the first time and having someone watch my fur babe but she made me feel so comfortable and Julie loved her! ?Stephanie came on thanksgiving morning and we are so thankful! Thank you so much!”
“Rebekah has been very reliable when caring for my dog Boba. She sends me updates with pictures and lets me know how Boba is doing. I can tell she really loves spending time with animals by how she cares for my Boba.”
“Andy is kind and gentle with our tripod Xander. Our dog is always so excited when he sees Andy. He has leash reactivity and Andy has been understanding and capable. Andy has been flexible with our schedule. We are so happy we chose Andy to be our dog walker.”

“Ziying was a wonderful cat sitter for our drop-in visits. She is very kind, caring, and easy to communicate with. She kept me updated before visit and shared lots of photos and videos, which I really appreciated. My cats were well taken care of, and I felt completely at ease. I would definitely book Ziying again in the future and highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals since I was a child and the love never ceased. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats. I have extensive experience caring for senior pets who might need a bit more attention. I am currently home from UCSC this summer so have very open availability for providing services. Additionally, I have my own vehicle so there are no time constraints in scheduling. I will be able to crate your pets if needed, but if they prefer a cuddle I will happily oblige! Have a pet with lots of energy? We can do long walls or monitored off leash play if that’s what they are used to !
About: I’ve taken care of cats in a house sitting capacity for friends and family since I was in High School. Love to play with them and make them happy I work full time but can work from home in a hybrid capacity. I like to stay home though so not too much hectic scheduling on my end I have just one cat at home. And she is very chill. I have a lot of spare toys and doodads for visiting cats to play with
About: With over 13 years of pet care experience—including a decade dedicated specifically to dogs—caring for animals is both my passion and my calling. I raised my own rescue, a friendly Labrador/Pitbull mix, from the time he was a tiny four-week-old pup, so I deeply understand the level of patience, tenderness, and attentiveness every dog deserves. I offer attentive overnight care and day services tailored to your dog’s unique routine. Whether they need frequent potty breaks, invigorating walks, or cozy downtime, I adapt completely to their needs. I'm a student at UCSB. When I am off class, I work part-time with rover. Taking care of your dog would be far from a job for me. Tending to the loving companions dogs are fulfills my day like no other. My neighborhood is surrounded by pet owners so ur dog will have company on his/her walks. Dog sitting at the owners house will also not be a problem, and I'm very reachable on my phone for constant updates.
About: I have lived and worked with pets for almost 20 years, caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I have experience with daily care, feeding routines, senior pets, and understanding different personalities. I treat every pet with patience, respect, and genuine love, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like family. If you want it more professional, more warm, or more playful, tell me the vibe and I’ll refine it I have a flexible schedule and am happy to discuss availability with you. Together, we can create a time that works best for your needs and ensures your pet receives the best care possible. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I carefully follow each pet’s routine, keep their environment clean and secure, and make sure they feel comfortable, calm, and cared for in my home or yours.
About: Since the time I had my pet for the last 4 years, I can’t disagree to say I secretly love him more than my daughter😁. They are super cute, notorious, kind with those forgiving eyes. It would be fun to have your fur babies playing in my backyard and staying in our house. My daughter loves dogs, my pet is calm but friendly upon his mood and as a team, my family would love to host your fur babies. I am a software engineer by profession and working remotely. I am full time available at home, when the care is needed for the dogs. I have a playpen along with a large dog crate, if separation is needed. Backyard is fenced and is super secure. My daughter and I will walk the dogs.
About: I’ve been around dogs all of my life. As such, I feel comfortable working with dogs of all sizes and ages. During high school, I began pet- and housesitting professionally for Pleasanton Pets. Customers were always satisfied with my services, listing my respectfulness and punctuality as my best traits. Since then, I’ve also helped raise a puppy under certain regulations prior to its entry to a Guide Dog program in Norway. I have recently completed my MSc in Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin. I am eager to take on a part time role as a Petsitter while I apply to more relevant full time jobs. This allows me to be available for petsits any day of the week. I do not currently offer petsits in my own home. However, as mentioned in a previous section, I have had many dogs (and cats) through the years, and am comfortable/familiar with most procedures people implement for their pets in their own homes.
“Darcy was one of the best sitters we’ve ever had! She followed all of our instructions and was very communicative. We have a shy kitty and reactive dog, yet she made sure to meet each of their individual needs. Darcy went above and beyond for our babies and we can’t thank her enough. We will definitely be booking again!”
About: I've trained puppies in my younger years and understand the importance of consistency and play for your fur babies at all ages. My own pets are my family and I will care for yours like I care for my own. I'm part of the illustrious layoffs in the corporate world and looking to stay active while I search for my next career. I started on this app as a customer and now looking to bring my skills to other families. I like to treat pets as individuals and build trust with them at their own pace. I treat your home as I do my own and like to learn each pets unique personality and adapt my way of interacting accordingly.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of September 2026, there are 11,506 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sunol. 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 Sunol. On Rover:
- 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 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.
