“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.”


“Stephanie took great care of our cats! She is so friendly, was great at communicating and keeping us updated during her visits, and gave both of our cats a lot of attention. We highly recommend her and have already rebooked her.”

“Paige was extremely communicative, reliable and amazing! She sent update pictures for every visit and assured me that my pet bunny Luna was happy, healthy and well cared for. I was worried since most people don't have much experience with bunnies, but Paige asked thorough questions to make sure she cared for Luna in the best way possible. Would extremely recommend her!”


About: At 19 I decided to become a dog groomer. Attended a grooming academy for 9 months part-time. Now going on 15 years Ive worked in Hostipal, salon and mobile settings. Clients have not only trusted me with giving them spa treatments, but have also allowed me into there homes to watch over there babies. I enjoy creating relationships with owners and their pets. I feel honored when trust is built over time and I get peep of excitement when pets see me. Working in the pet industry Ive learned and dealt with all types of pets. From senior to anxiety prone. I believe my calm demeanor allows me to build trust with nervous or anxious pets. I currently work part time so I have about 3 to 4 days that are open a week. The days are work are typically morning till early evening so I could possibly come by after a shift. I will follow your instructions on how and when your pets needs are met on a daily basis. If I am unsure, I will reach out and only when given your consent will I proceed.
“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.”


“Bailey was great! I have a dog with special needs and she worked with him well. We had specific instructions and she was able to work with us in that regard. Would recommend Bailey for anyone with a pup! 👍”

“I can't recommend Shiqi enough! My cat, Yuki, is extremely shy and usually takes a long time to warm up to strangers. I was quite worried about leaving her alone, but Shiqi was incredible. She was so patient and gentle that Yuki actually started rubbing against her and playing with her after just a few visits! The daily updates, photos, and videos gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was such a relief to see my cat happy and active instead of hiding. If you have a timid cat, Shiqi is the perfect choice. 5 stars!”


About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. Growing up, I had four cats, and still do cat-care on weekends. I have more recently pet-sat for dogs, and taken both smaller and larger dogs on walks (from a Shih-Poo to a Bernese Mountain Dog). I will take care of your fur baby like I would take care of my own. I just graduated college, so I can spend the majority of my week walking and pet-sitting for all of your needs. Although I am set to one-day book at the earliest, I am open to same-day inquiries if needed. When taking care of cats, I love to let them warm up to me on their own, cuddle, and play when they want to! I will always take lots of pictures and give your pets lots of love.
About: I've been a groomer for over 5 years . I have experience with dogs since I was 7 years old. love animals and stay with them . I stay full time at home so I have I lot free time take care of your pet. You can feel free to ask for my services. I have a 5 year old dog named Skylar, very friendly and affectionate. She loves new friendships and I’m sure this will be a nice place for your dog to spend time.
“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.”

“Alison I was very attentive to our pets needs. She provided daily updates and photos of our pets, which was comforting. I would highly recommend Alison and plan to book her services in the future.”


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: 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 have 9 years of hands-on animal rescue experience including fostering, TNR work and caring for pets from outdoor rescues. Through this volunteer work and my unconditional genuine love for all animals, I’ve learned to be patient, observant, and gentle, giving each animal the time and care they need to feel safe and comfortable. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, and I make sure I have the time and flexibility to give each pet my full attention. I prioritize consistency, clear communication, and unhurried visits so pets feel relaxed and well cared for. I’m especially comfortable caring for rescue pets and understand that trust can take time, so I always move at each pet’s pace and respect their individual boundaries.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs as well as homes for weeks. The most recent one was very fun they had a small older male dog that just loved a lot of attention and would sleep a lot. I have also walked and hiked dogs. I only do school and soccer. I have school two times a week and basically have a practice everyday but other than those activities I’m usually home. I am very caring of my own pets as well as others. I am always making sure a dog always has water and is never too cold or hot. I think it’s important to keep a dog on a routine.
About: I love love love dogs! I rescued 4 dogs ranging from snappy chihuahuas to reactive pitbulls. I’ve been dog walking and sitting for half my life (15 years). I love kitty cats too, and I have experience with caring for turtles and fish! My first dog sitting client was in 2010 and she was my client for 4 years. In 2018 I started a professional dog walking and pet sitting business called Puppy Paws Pet Services in Jacksonville, Florida. I serviced over 100 dogs every year and had many daily and weekly clients. The biggest pack I’ve taken care of included 6 dogs, 4 turtles, and 10 fish. Big packs are my specialty, as I myself have a big pack. I have experience administering medicine, putting on diapers, specific diet plans, and handling rescues with different behavioral tendencies. I’ve seen just about everything and am prepared for most situations. I’ve never lost a dog, a dog has never been injured in my care, and I promise to send you cute photos of your pup! I currently work from home part time and have a very flexible schedule. I also have reliable transportation and only my two dogs to care for at home. My availability is open and flexible. I’m incredibly cautious when handling pets, I never get too comfortable. I always double, sometimes triple check locked doors, I review instructions I have before I enter and leave a clients house, I am mindful of how I would want someone in my home to act, and I always try to go above and beyond.
About: Animals have been a huge part of my life since childhood. Growing up we always had dogs and cats. As an adult I currently have a beautiful senior cat, a senior yorkie, 2 pugs, and a chihuahua. I have a huge heart and am big into animal rescue. I'm very good at dispensing medication to both cats and dogs. I have even become skilled at giving subcutaneous fluids to cats. When I watch your fur baby you can be sure that I will go above and beyond to make them feel loved while you are away. I send regular check ins and photos so you can have peace of mind when you leave your dog in my care. Right now pet care is my full time job. I have animals of my own so during the day I will of course be checking in on them as well. I sit small dogs, puppies or kittens only in my home. Any other small animals are negotiable. Please keep in mind I have animals of my own so if your pet is not good around other animals they can’t come here for boarding or day care.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra care. I also have experience with cats and other critters, and I currently have all three myself, so I understand their unique needs and behaviors. I’ve worked alongside professional dog trainers, which has helped me build strong handling skills and better understand training, behavior, and safety. In addition, I’ve volunteered with animal shelters, giving me experience with a wide variety of temperaments and situations. I treat every pet like my own—making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your pets! I offer open availability for drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the day, making it easy to accommodate your pet’s schedule, I keep my calendar as up to date as possible as well marking any days I will not be available. For the comfort and safety of all pets, I provide care in your home rather than mine. I’m more than happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide to ensure they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for in their own environment. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering basic care, or just giving extra love and attention, I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care as my own.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of October 2026, there are 11,370 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
