“Martina was incredible! She really put the extra effort in with taking care of our pup! He can be pretty shy around new people, and she was able to be patient with him and work her way into him being comfortable around her and her family. I will definitely be using her in the future when we need to! She loves animals and they know it! Thank you Martina!”
“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.”
About: I've been taking care of dogs my whole life. I grew up showing dogs and caring for them with my mom. Nowadays I just have my one little girl at my house - Her name is Shorty and she's a 9 year old Beagle I work for myself and often have big breaks in my schedule. I love dogs and thought this would be a good way to work towards paying off my debt and making a better savings account I'm happy to mimic your style of care in your home or during a check in. Just let me know what your pup or cat's schedule is and I will take care of everything :)
“Jayda was great with both of my dogs, they loved having her stop by while I was gone. She was great with communication, sent lots of pictures, and even cleaned up after one of the dogs destroyed a toy.”
About: I have had the privilege and honor of raising dogs and cats pretty much all my life. I grew up in my younger years on a farm and not a stranger of taking care of all types of animals and pets. I find dogs and cats become more then "pets" they become family (children if you will). I love taking care of both dogs and cats along with spending time with them. I have a dog, his name is Trooper and he is my world. He is a German Shepard with a black lab. I now also live with 3 cats, named Penny, Pepper, and Petunia (Lulu for short). I live with them with my Girlfriend and they are my world. I love spending time with them and showing them much love. I would love to meet your furry companion along with being entrusted with their care and friendship. I find I am a very responsible adult who knows, how to stick to a feeding schedule / walking schedule / or even if it is a quick drop in that you may require of your furry love one. I know how to handle or manage whatever situation that may arise while in my care. As for allowing me to enter your home (if required), I am a very trustworthy individual and will also respect your privacy of both your home and your pet. I am pretty flexible with my time, if given notice and most of the time, can adjust on a moments notice. So if your wanting someone to care of your pet while in your absent and receive updates / photos (when you are missing them) or videos of your pet happy. Please allow me to enter your pets life, even if it is for a brief period of time. As they say; "They may be in our life for a brief period of our lives, but we will be in their life forever". At this time, I am attending school. However, I do have a lot of free time on my hands before and after school, so whatever your schedule would need, we can always work around that. and whatever details or extra instructions that are required, we can work with that also. Rest is sure that your set appointment upcoming appointment or current appointments will have the utmost priority and care. Your pet safety welfare are my top concern with that being said, I can guarantee that you can trust me inside your home and or with the care of your dog or cat or both. Whatever I can do to give you peace of mind that your pat is in great care. We can do also.
“As expected Ariah did a fantastic job checking on the pups and getting them exercise. She was detailed in her updates and sent plenty of pictures, Ariah communicated incredibly well.”
“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.”
About: 🐾 New to Rover, Not to Pet Care! Hi, I’m Shelby! 👋 Although I’m new to Rover, I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 12+ years. From playful puppies to senior pets and those with special needs, I provide patient, reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique personality and routine. ❤️ As a Direct Support Professional, caring for others is what I do every day. You can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and treat your pets like family. ✨ What you can expect: 🐶 12+ years of pet care experience 💊 Medication administration 🐾 Experience with puppies, seniors & special needs 📸 Frequent photo updates 🚶 Walks, playtime & enrichment 💙 Lots of love, cuddles, and personalized care I know leaving your pet with someone new can feel overwhelming. My goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your furry family! 🐕🐈 I work full time swings typically 3p-10/12p it varies during the week. When I’m not working I’m a home body so your pets will have company with them most of the morning. I do know my schedule usually a month in advance so I am able to let you know before you officially book and you can decide if it works for you. I prefer to stay in their home which allows them to stay comfortable and in their own environment, new places can cause fur babies unnecessary stress and no one wants that. I prefer to keep their routine as normal as possible as well so if they get fed at 5 am I set an alarm to ensure they get fed at their normal time as well.
“Elizabeth and her daughter were amazing with my two big dogs and my two cats. They spent time with each one and they seemed happy and well taken care of. Highly recommend Elizabeth. Will use her again next time!”
“Kaylee was so helpful and great with my dogs. It’s so nice to know they are well taken care off! She is a quick communicator and very thorough. Thank you - we’ll see you again soon”
About: I've watched multiple pets, older pets, shy pets, and houses big and small and would be happy to do the same for you. Have to watch pets in their home because I don't have a place of my own at the moment. Experienced with cats, dogs, turtles, birds, goats. I pretty much devote myself full-time to your pet(s). I'll only need to go out to buy sustenance and for exercise/fresh air, which I can do with your pets. I like to meet pets first and care for them the way they are used to and according to their human's instructions. Have looked after large dogs fresh out of surgery, a blind dog (so sweet), cats who need meds, fish, dogs with severe allergies and more. I used to have a dog and cat but the dog died (she was 16) and the cat, whose age we didn't know because she was a rescue, may have died of a broken heart nine months later. Which also broke my heart. I won't get more pets until I settle down somewhere, which means your pets get my undivided attention.
“Brandi was amazing to work with. She communicated with me from the very beginning, asked thoughtful questions at our meet and greet, and provided my dog with great care. I never worried while I was away from home. This was my first time using Rover. If it's as easy as Brandi makes it, I'll definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I have worked in a boarding facility as well as had my own dogs for the last 8 years, I'm a helicopter pet parent, any change in behavior and I'm immediately on it making sure my pets are happy and safe. My availability is completely open currently as I am a stay at home pet parent due to my own pups anxiety and special needs. I can accommodate any schedule with the proper communication. I have a fenced patio and I will make sure to walk your pet every couple of hours. I also have 2 very friendly pups of my own for company. Can provide crate as well if needed.
“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!!”
“Elva was very responsive. She texts frequent updates on my fur babies. She shows up on time and ensures all of my animals have all of their needs and wants met. She made sure everyone was happy and safe. She answered any questions I had promptly. She shows true love and care for animals.”
About: I am very outgoing, positive and I love dogs. I am patient and caring and can't wait to help you not stress and your pup feel cared for when you are away! At the moment I am at Weber State University student-athlete. I am originally from Oregon and I miss my little beagle so much so I would love to help you with your busy schedules in any way I can and care for you dog(s). Most of the time I will be free Friday - Sunday for house sitting. For walks I am more free because I can come before, between, or even after classes and practice. I can even come let your dogs out for a potty break in between classes, whatever you need help with. I currently live in the dorms so I would have to come to your home if I am pet sitting. I am very responsible and a very hard worker. I would respect your things and only do the things you tell me and need help with. I am a very trustworthy person and very respectful so if you need any help at all of have questions feel free to reach out.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sunset
Danii is amazing! This is the 2nd time we have used her and we will always use her to watch our pups. She is great with the pups and is great at communicating and taking pictures. I have nothing but great things to say and I highly recommend her to anyone needing someone to trust with their furry family members!
Elizabeth was beyond the best!! She took such great care of our pets & our home while we were on vacation. She kept us updated on how our cars were doing & sent pictures every visit! When we got home, I knew the kitties had been well cared for. We will DEFINITELY be hiring her again!
Lisa is a wonderful animal caretaker! She took very thorough notes and asked great questions, it was very clear early on that she is experienced with animal caretaking. Our cat, Shishi, is elderly, battling IBD, needs several oral medications and is a feisty gal. We went on a 6 day backcountry river trip and knew we needed someone experienced to care for her while we were away. Lisa administered all Shishi’s medications with no issues, fed her the very specific meal regimen that Shi is on, kept her company, and cleaned up after Shishi had several diarrhea accidents outside of the litter box. Lisa communicated well and sent many cute pictures. In short — Lisa is a rockstar, we will definitely hire her again and highly recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sunset is $11 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $9 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 2,741 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.
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 Sunset. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 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.
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.
