About: Having a hugely flexible schedule and an affection for pets has made me the go-to sitter for a large group of friends and acquaintances for the past several years, with intermittent experience before that. I’m a freelance filmmaker and photographer and my schedule is highly flexible with lots of time I can happily devote to spending with your dog/s and/or cat/s. I don’t have any special certifications but I’ve watched dogs of varying ages and breeds, with simple and complicated needs. Happy to consider unique circumstances, but my main experience is in walking and spending time with dogs and cats.

About: I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and other household pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I provide dependable, loving care that helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. My services include feeding, walking, playtime, administering medication if needed, cleaning up after pets, and following each pet’s individual routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making their health, happiness, and well-being my top priorities while giving owners peace of mind. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable walks, feedings, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I prioritize consistency and make sure every pet receives the care, affection, and routine they need to feel comfortable and happy while their owner is away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a beloved family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, maintain your pet’s normal routine, and provide plenty of love, attention, and supervision. I communicate regularly with updates and photos, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since childhood to include dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits. I am currently not working so have a very flexible schedule. I also have access to Hill Air Force Base! I have three dogs that I have raised since they were puppies so I’m experienced in puppy care and adult dog care along with medication administration. I am currently not working so my schedule is pretty flexible! I am free most any time of day and am willing to help out early or late if needed. I understand the worry of leaving your pet with someone new. I will always provide the best safety measures possible when caring for your pet. This can include crating, making sure harnesses/collars are secure before walks, and supervising chew toys!

About: I raised my puppy Maple for 7 years until she died of cancer last year. I would love to hangout with your animals. I am young, love dogs, and willing to go on walks galore. I have a regular 9-4ish. So I would love to work on weekends and do overnights if that is what is needed from you. I am mobile and willing to keep the dog in a familiar environment. I do not invite animals to my house because I have limited space. If you are interested in drop ins and overnight care at your house I am very flexible for those throughout the week and weekends

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have a genuine love for caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities! I currently have multiple cats of my own, so I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pets like family. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, large and small dogs, and cats with all kinds of personalities. I’m also comfortable administering medications and caring for animals that may need a little extra attention or patience. I previously worked at DogMode here in Utah, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet is full of energy or prefers to spend the day relaxing, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs! I recently graduated from Weber State University with my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. I currently work full-time but am available for drop-in visits, pet sitting, and other pet care needs depending on scheduling. I know how much our pets mean to us, and I’ll always treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I’m also happy to provide references from previous clients! I recently graduated from Weber State University with my bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, from 9 AM to 5 PM. While I do have a regular work schedule, I’m available for early morning visits, evening drop-ins, and weekend pet care! I’m also happy to work with you to accommodate your pet’s specific routine and needs whenever possible. Whether you need occasional visits, ongoing care, or someone to check in while you’re out of town, I’ll do my best to make it w I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s care, especially when they’re such a big part of your family! When I stay in your home, I treat both your pets and your space with the same love and respect I give my own. I do my best to stick to their normal routines, whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, or just giving them some extra love and attention. I’m always happy to send pictures and updates so you know how your pets are doing while you’re away! I also make sure your home stays clean, tidy, and secure. My goal is for you to enjoy your time away without worrying, knowing your pets are safe, comfortable, and getting plenty of love!

About: As a pet owner, I understand the responsibility, patience, and love that goes into caring for an animal every day. From maintaining consistent feeding and exercise routines to recognizing changes in behavior or health, I’ve gained firsthand experience in providing attentive, compassionate care. Being a pet owner has taught me how important trust, routine, and genuine affection are in keeping pets happy and comfortable. I am currently a SAHM and can pop in and feed and walk your dog or cat anytime between 9-3 during the week. Available on nights and weekends. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, calm, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest, to help them feel comfortable and secure. I provide plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, while also respecting each pet’s individual needs and boundaries. Clean spaces, fresh water, and yearly vet appointments.

About: With my visits you can almost guarantee added services just as a bonus. I don't mind cleaning up, poop duty and liter boxes, I've even ran errands. A bit about me.... I've grown up caring for Cats & Kittens. I have helped deliver liters of kittens. My family has loved dogs too.. especially the big ones 😁 Our first family pup was a beautiful pure white Pitbul who was in need of a rescue home and shortly following was his Brother Dashy who was a Black Lab Pitbul mix. Best two dogs i have ever had the honor of meeting and owning, they both lived to be 14 & 15 and we just recently lost them in 2021 and 2024. We do love our minpin Sadie she's 7 this year and our protection aka Guard Dog!! 😁 and we now have ourselves a beautiful Siberian Husky with beautiful baby blue eyes. We suprised my dad with him @ 8 weeks old to bring up as a companion and some emotional support.. he's 10 months and still growing I just don't do 🐍 🐍 👎 😁 I love going on car rides, finding new dog parks and tossing around toys in the yard. I just got done working Hickory Farms so I don't have a job at the moment. My availability is quite open as I try and find my place in this job world. I clean, babysit, care for the elderly and pets. I currently don't have the ability to have pets at my home. However, special circumstances can be discussed. ☆☆《I'm very patient, tolerant and trustworthy. I don't believe in animal violence or cruelty.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was little, and I’ve been taking care of dogs while the neighbors were away since I was 12. I love dogs and own 5 myself, I can administer medications and just play with your dog. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend! I currently have a small puppy so I already have a good routine of letting her out to play, go potty and such. I only work my day job about 7 hours a day in the early morning so I’ll be able to go in the early afternoon and let your pet out and play with them every day. The pets in my home have a spacious environment to be around the family while we are home. We always watch out for our dogs when they are out of the crate and the same for any of your pets that come over to hang out.

About: I grew up with a Golden Retriever and currently have a Maltese, Havanese, Shih Tzu mix of my own. Having experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels has taught me how to care for each dogs individual needs. I’ve also had many friends, family members, and others trust me to walk and care for their dogs. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and would be happy to give your pup the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. Having a dog of my own has taught me how important it is to be patient, pay attention to their needs, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I know every dog has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I love getting to know what makes each one so special. Weather your dog is always ready for an adventure, loves sniffing, and exploring on walks, or is happiest getting extra attention and belly rubs, I’ll make sure they have a great time! I also know how important it is to have someone you can count on when it comes to your pets. I’ll always do my best to follow your dogs usual routine and make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and love while your away. I’d be happy to send updates and pictures so you can see how your pup is doing! I want you to have a peace of mind knowing your dog is in caring hands and your pup to have a new friend they’re excited to see! 🐶 Pet care is a big part of my everyday life because I have a dog of my own. She is extremely picky, so i’m used to paying attention to what she likes, making sure she’s eating, and noticing when something seems different with her. I take care of her throughout the day, including feeding, walks, playtime, and giving lots of attention. I’d love to use some extra time to help people with their pets needs. I’m comfortable making time for walks and drop-in visits and would treat every pet like they are my own. For drop-in visits and walks, I always make sure each pet gets the care and attention they need. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and anything else you ask me to do. I’ll also make sure your pet is comfortable and safe before I leave, and i’ll send updates and pictures so you know how they’re doing.

About: I got my first dog when I was 8 years old, and ever since then I have not wanted to live a day without animals! All together I have had 4 dogs, and a cat. From living with my parents growing up, 3 dogs in total, to being on my own and rescuing my baby Sammy (male/ black lab) when he was 5 months old. He is now 4.5! He had a lot of anxiety as a shelter animal, but I have helped him overcome many obstacles, and we are each others rocks! My cat named Binky I rescued when she was 4 weeks old, and she changed my life. I never had cats growing up because my mom is allergic which is extremely unfortunate. But my cat is my life, I feel like she really understands me on a deeper level, and if you have a cat I am sure you can understand that! All in all, I love and cherish every animal like they’re my own. You will never have to worry about the safety or care that they’ll be receiving when I am around! I am not shy of any breed or animal, thank you for taking the time to look at my profile and I hope I can meet your animals soon! I am currently unemployed, but as a hobby I stream video games on platforms like Twitch and TikTok! My hours are mostly free, my stepson is in middle school currently, so mornings/afternoons are perfect for me! I would say my cut off time is around 6pm, but if you really need me I’m sure I can make something work! I am extremely flexible and so is my family schedule! I have been around many different types of animals with all sorts of personalities. Not every animal is the same! Before I know how to properly take care of/treat an animal, I like to get a sense of their temperament and comfortability so I do not stress them out in any way. My dog had extreme anxiety when I first adopted him at the shelter, and it took a while for him to become comfortable to most things. Patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to caring for animals! Whatever your animal needs, I will make sure to tend to their needs to the best of my abilities! Whether that’s just hanging out and cuddling because they’re anxious and miss their family, or going outside and playing for however long! I also love taking dogs on walks and I’m sure your fur babies love walks as well!

About: Kawhi and Yuki taught me how rewarding it is to love an animal, even with all the stress and mess that comes with them! After our new addition, October, we are complete! Yuki was sick often as a puppy - he had Giardia a few times and hookworms once - so I’ve done my time in puppy nursery. I’m familiar with administering medication and working around a feeding routine. I am also experienced in working with anxious dogs and am willing to work with dogs that need a little extra attention because of reactivity, fear, or anxiety. I will not watch/walk/board aggressive dogs. Work from home: Monday and Tuesday from 8:30 - 5 In-office: Wednesday to Friday from 8:30 - 5 Schedule is flexible however as long as I am given advanced notice. Weekends are available with notice. I live in an apartment but have several parks within walking distance, and my Yuki is very good with other dogs. He would love to run around with yours and play! Yuki is a 5 year old Whippet who is always happy to have new friends. I am home all day the first day your pet is staying with me so that he/she is comfortable in their new environment, supervised, and getting all the care he/she needs. You will have pet pictures galore from me. For drop in visits, I will send you photos of your pet when I arrive and when I leave!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Sunset

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Sunset is $11 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $19 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 2,655 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Sunset. 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.

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 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.

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:

  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 96% 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 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.
