About: I have grown up with and taken care animals since I can remember from dogs and cats to fish and birds to even chickens! I have watched puppies and senior dogs. I currently work from home as a secretary so I have a lot of free time in between calls and invoicing to love on and care for your pet. I also can work anywhere, not just at home. I can take care of your fur baby like you would depending on your preferences. I can crate your pet if needed and take them on the walks and exercise that they my need.
About: I provide attentive, personalized care, maintain routines, give regular updates, create a calm home environment, and treat every pet with genuine patience and affection. Thanks! I work part time, usually in the mornings. I have ample time to play with pups, give plenty of potty breaks, and provide them food. I have a partially fenced yard and one very friendly pup to keep yours company. I can also provide great care at you home too.
“Kristie has taken care of our dog multiple times! She is so good with our dog. She takes her to the dog park to get out her energy. She also cleans up after our dog and refills her food and water bowls. I recommend her without hesitation!”
“Morgan did an excellent job caring for our pets while we were away. She was reliable, thorough, and made sure every detail was taken care of. Her communication was great—she kept us updated and reached out promptly if she had any questions. One thing that stood out right away was during our initial meet-up: our cats, who are usually pretty skittish around new people, immediately walked up to her and let her pet them. That was such a great sign and gave us instant peace of mind. We came home to happy, well-cared-for kitties and a tidy home. We truly appreciate her care and professionalism. We would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet sitter!”
“Coral is great! Always on time and kept us up to date with pics, videos, and notes. We had her do daily drop ins for our two kitties for 10 days. We would definitely call on Coral to help us out in the future.”
About: I like to walk the dogs daily around the Atascadero Lake. I have a decent size fenced backyard with room to run and use my poop scooper daily. I am retired and looking for things to do during the week (mon-Fri) to fill my days. I have always loved the company of dogs and love to take them on daily walks. I have a dog bed in my bedroom, where your dog would sleep at night. The dogs water bowl is always kept clean and fresh. The dogs would always be welcome to hang out in the house with me, too.
“Rachel was great! She cared for our two cats for a few days and our house looked just as we left it when we returned home! Rachel was great with all my notes I left and took some cute pics of our girls even! We will definitely be using her services in the future!”
About: I have had dogs my whole life. My oldest is nearly 15. I have 4 currently, lab, shepherd, border collie mix, boxer. I can handle pretty much any breed, temperament, & love them all! From puppies to seniors, I’m comfortable helping with any needs. I’m also a big trail runner, so if your dog needs a little extra I can help! I have a flexible schedule working for myself, so I can adjust my schedule to meet you & your pets needs, whether that’s dog walks or drop by visits! My dogs are all crate trained while I’m away or in the car. At home they have free roam with a fenced in yard. I will care for your pets like they were my own.
“Faith did a great job while we were away for the weekend! It feels so nice to be able to trust someone to watch the dogs when we can’t bring them. We will definitely be using her service in the future!”
About: I have several years of experience caring for animals and have been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to look after their pets. As an FFA member, I am comfortable working with many different types of animals and understand the responsibility that comes with proper animal care. I have owned and cared for dogs of all sizes, from small breeds to large breeds, giving me experience with different personalities, energy levels, and care needs. Whether it’s feeding, walking, exercising, administering basic care, or providing companionship, I make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I am dependable, patient, and treat every animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time to care for and spend quality time with your pets. I am available on weekdays in the early mornings and after 3:00 PM, making it easy to fit walks, drop-in visits, and pet care into my schedule. On weekends, I am available in the mornings and can provide attentive care, exercise, and playtime. I enjoy staying active and making sure pets get the attention, companionship, and enrichment they need while their owners are away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a large yard where dogs can run, play, and get plenty of exercise. Pets will never be left unattended in the backyard, and I always supervise outdoor time to ensure they remain safe. If a dog is crate-trained or needs to be crated for their routine, I can easily accommodate that. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully and provide a safe, caring, and trustworthy environment where pets can feel comfortable and well cared for.
“Carlos did an amazing job watching my doggos. He was very understanding and you can tell he truly cares. He was very prompt with communication and asked all the necessary questions in order to care for my doggos properly which I really appreciated. I was able to take care of my business and not worry about my doggos.”

About: I have always been a huge animal lover. I have a sweet fur baby of my own and treat her like my baby. To me animals are family. They are the children that depend on us. They are always there, with those adorable eyes to make you feel guilty for not giving your food to them. I have trained not including mine but close to 25 owners dogs as puppies. I'm great with disciplining. I am also a student I'm going to school for law. I'm very trust worthy and dependable. I work at a restaurant as a server. 3 days a wk. which gives me plenty of time to care for animals in my home or yours! If you have any questions. Please ask away! I’m a sahm. So I always have plenty of time. I take my dogs for walks with my little girl. I put a carrier on and my dogs love it. I do beach walks and walks around the neighborhood . I have a huge fenced in back yard. I’m on 5 acres. I love to go out in the backyard and play fetch and do property walks. I have a fun energetic 1 yr dog. And I have a senior dog who is very laid back and to herself. I do keep them in other rooms during the day since she likes her peace. So if a dog needs peace I would separate during the day away from the puppy as well

Kristie is great. She pays special attention to all the animals needs and communicates each time she stops in to care for them. I can’t say enough good things about Kristie and what a great job she does with our cats and chickens. We always come home to relaxed stress free pets because they have been taken care of so well.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 665 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Templeton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Templeton 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.
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.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
