“Kaylee did a great job with our cats while we were away. She was patient and waited for them to come to her, which I know they appreciated. She followed instructions and went the extra mile to make sure the cats were happy. We will definitely request her again and recommend her to others!”
“Matthew did a good job with my cattle dog and Aussie. They can be a bit much for some people but he worked with them well. I hired him for 3 visits a day for 4 days. He kept in good communication.”
“Our Roscoe loves Kelly. Sometimes after trips, Roscoe can act a little sad after being left behind, but as Kelly has watched Roscoe for us, he seems to be much happier once we're home. She makes him feel loved. Thank you, Kelly!”
About: Pets are members of our family, and our family deserves to be taken care of. I absolutely adore animals, I have pets of my own, and they are my whole world. I have an adorable Maltese named Fizzgig and a Black Cat named Thackery Binx. Prior to this dog, I had a Maltese named Tinkerbell. I just want to be able to care for other animals as I have cared for mine. We all have responsibilities that keep us away from home most days, and we want to be sure our little fur babies are well-cared for in our absence. I can promise you that I will provide to their every need, and maybe even spoil them a little bit! I’m a published author, and I spend way too much time locked up inside writing. I need to get out and walk and have a break from the soul-sucking experience of sitting in front of the screen all day. I hate sitting idle. I have too much energy. Dogs have too much energy. It's a perfect match! I need something else to keep me moving in a day, and playing with precious animals seems like the perfect job! I can crate or leash dogs to ensure they will not run away, and if your cat is exclusively a house cat, I am well accustomed to keeping those quick felines from darting outdoors.
“Isela was absolutely wonderful with my dog Bandit. She took such good care of him & made sure to leave very detailed cards about each visit. I recommend her to anyone that’s needing care for their animals.”
“Jackie did an excellent job taking care of our two cats. She was willing to meet before our trip so I could go over some of their specific needs. She was so sweet and I felt assured they would be in good hands. When she dropped in each day, she was sure to send pictures and videos of them while we were gone and texted any questions that came up. Her kids played with them and they were well taken care of. We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“Brooke had great communication during drop in visits for our kitty! She was also patient with our shy guy and allowed him time to come out and investigate on his own. We knew our kitty was in great hands while we were out of town!”
About: I grew up with my mom finding strays to care for and finding them homes. I've always wanted my own. I've had my dog for 4 years and adopted my kitten a few months ago! I am mostly free on weekdays and most weekends so any day works for me to give your pets my undivided attention and my best care. I will be able to drop in and hang out with your pets as long, or as many times as needed to make them and yourself more comfortable!
“Ashley was great she was on time for every drop-in. I got home after a week long vacation and the house was good. If my tater dog had an accident she must have cleaned it up because I had no surprises to clean up.”
“Kerry was amazing. He took really good care of my girls. He communicated everyday and sent pictures. I felt like they were in really good hands. I highly recommend Kerry. I will be rebooking in the future.”
“Kianna took care of our zoo that included a very large and goofy golden doodle. Although shy and skittish he fell in love with her and survived us being gone beautifully. Highly recommend!”
“McKenly was so nice to work with, she took great care of Porter and followed instructions great. Porter was a happy boy. Will definitely be having her over to take care of him again.”
“Very happy and services Kaleb provided. I really appreciate getting daily updates so I wouldn’t stress and would definitely select Kaleb for daily check ins for my energetic schnauzer.”
“McKenna did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 cats. She’s trustworthy and easy to work with, and she made sure my cats were happy/stress-free while I was away.”
“Ashley really did a great job with my pups. From the first meet and greet to the days she stopped in. She kept in touch with me and send me pictures. She is very professional and loving. I will be using her in the future and highly recommend!!”
“Shayla is the best!!! She is so nice and she takes such good care of our two mini golden doodles. We have her come twice a day. She is there on time, she walks them around the neighborhood to get exercise. She cleans the dogs eyes and put drops in them. She chops up their food for them. She gives them a lot of love and scratches. I love when she sends us pictures. I will always have her as their babysitter.”

We are so thankful for the care that Brianna and her sister provided for our animals! She always provided a thorough overview of each visit and uploaded the sweetest pictures. We will definitely be using them again. It’s so nice to know your animals are taken care of while you’re away ◡̈
Amazing and responsive sitter, truly above and beyond. My dog had an emergency (stressed induced diarrhea) and Emma was able to bring him to the vet and take care of him while I was gone, she cleaned up after him and kept me updated the whole time. I’ve never had such a compassionate and quick to respond sitter before, you are truly getting an absolute saint if you book her! Thank you so much Emma
Ashley and Michael were absolutely amazing with our dogs. Our living situation isn’t ideal for dog sitting, but they picked up and made it seem like no issue at all. Will definitely be using them again. They took plenty of pictures and allowed our dogs plenty of exercise while we were gone.

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 Sunset 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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Sunset choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Sunset with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sunset. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 98% 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.
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.
