About: Loving, reliable, and passionate about keeping your pups happy! With a lifetime love for animals and experience caring for dogs of all personalities, I’ll make sure your furry friend gets plenty of exercise, attention, and love. Whether it’s a fun walk, sniff-filled adventure, or a little extra companionship, your pup will be in good hands! I currently have an open schedule and would love to fill that time with pets!! My soul dog just passed away and i feel most connected to her through walks and giving love to other dogs. Your pets are family, and with me, they’ll always be in safe, loving, and caring hands! 💚 Their comfort, happiness, and safety will always be my top priority.
About: We’re a dedicated pet-sitting team with over 30 years of experience caring for animals, bringing compassion, patience, and reliability to every pet we care for. We love keeping pets happy and active with walks and play, while always following your detailed instructions for feeding, routines, medications, and special needs. Working together means your pet always has attentive, consistent care—never rushed or overlooked. We truly enjoy spending quality time with animals and treat every pet as if they were our own, so you can travel with confidence knowing they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for. As a pet-sitting team, we offer the best of both worlds. I work from home, so your pet has company, attention, and care throughout the day, with regular breaks for walks, play, and check-ins. My partner is retired, which means added availability, flexibility, and a calm presence at home. Together, we ensure your pet is never alone, rushed, or overlooked. We’re happy to follow a detailed schedule you provide—including exact feeding times, walks, play sessions, and medications—so your pet’s routine stays consistent, familiar, and stress-free while you’re away. As an in-home pet-sitting team, we care for your pet the same way we’d want someone to care for our own—with love, attentiveness, and respect for their home and routine. Having two caregivers means more consistency, flexibility, and peace of mind, with your pet always receiving calm, unrushed attention in the comfort of their own space. We believe clear communication builds trust, so you can expect regular updates, photos, and short videos to reassure you that your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. We take the time to listen carefully and follow every instruction you provide—from feeding schedules and medications to special needs and quirks—so your pet’s routine stays familiar and stress-free while you’re away.
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.

About: I’ve been caring for animals my entire life. Growing up on a ranch, I gained hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals, including livestock. I’m responsible for overseeing the wellness and nutrition of every animal, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs. My experience also includes training and handling livestock, ensuring they are well-behaved and healthy. Whether it's managing animals’ care, training, or addressing specific needs, I’m comfortable working with animals of all types and ages I’m currently looking for part-time work and have a flexible schedule. I’m available on both weekdays and weekends, and can accommodate morning, evening, or overnight stays. I also ensure regular check-ups to stay on top of everything. When caring for pets in a client's home, my approach is always centered around the pet’s individual needs and comfort. I make sure the environment is safe, calm, and familiar, especially when they're away from their owners. I offer a variety of services depending on the pet’s requirements, such as daily walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and regular check-ups to ensure their wellness. For overnight stays, I maintain the same routine as at home, keeping things consistent so the pet feels at ease. I also offer special attention to senior pets or those with specific health needs, making sure they get the care and attention they deserve. Communication with the pet owner is key, so I send regular updates and pictures to keep them informed and reassured that their pet is in good hands.
About: My name is Lacey and I’ve always loved animals of all kinds. Growing up, my mom often rescued animals, so I grew up with a lot of fun friends, including an alpaca, chickens, horse, cats, dogs, birds, possums, rats, and mice, and more. Currently, I have three cats, one dog, and five chickens, and they all bring me so much joy. I hold such a deep love for animals and can’t wait to meet yours :)
About: As a devoted husky mom, I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your pet with patience, affection, and respect. I walk my own husky, Kai, about two miles every day, so I’m comfortable with energetic dogs and understand the importance of exercise, safety, and dependable routines. As a former teacher and a mom, I’m responsible, attentive, trustworthy, and an excellent communicator. I will follow your care instructions closely and provide thoughtful updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and genuinely cared for. I’m self-employed and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate morning and evening walks, daytime drop-in visits, and advance bookings. I already make daily exercise and pet care part of my own routine, so I understand the importance of being dependable and arriving when your pet expects me. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always come first. I carefully follow feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions while keeping doors, gates, leashes, and surroundings secure. I’m mindful of hot weather and adjust walks appropriately to protect sensitive paws and prevent overheating. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet beforehand and will provide photos and updates during every visit.
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.
“Helona is the best. She sent me photos, videos and always recorded her times that she checked in and checked out. In addition she play with my dog and bought her a toy!!! Doesn’t get better than that.”
About: I am reliable and very responsible with all fur babies! I am confident in CPR for animals, but still working on certification. I have a deep passion for animals, and it translates through the way I interact with them! I am finishing my masters degree in clinical psychology and have lots of time on my hands as I wait for my associate number to work as a therapist! Many services I provide include walking, housesitting, potty training, bathing and other basic needs. I want to keep your fur baby busy throughout the day!!
About: I used to have an Australian Shepherd and currently own an older cat. I know how to give food to them and water, also know how to have fun with them! I'm willing to work part time through out the week! I'm pretty flexible as my schooling is flexible as well! Hoping to be as accommodating as I can be! If they're indoor pets, I will make sure they don't get outside! If they're both indoor and outdoor I'm willing to take them on walks and spend fun time with them and take care!
“Brittany did a great job with our two kitties. This is the first time we had left them in anyone's care and we were very much put at ease with Brittany. She kept us well informed throughout the 11 days! We will definitely be repeat customers!”


About: My love for animals has made me want to help keep them active. I know life can get busy and want to help you and your fur baby’s have a long life together. I just moved to Manhattan and am currently a graduate student. All my classes are online and can go during anytime to check and take them out. I worked as a nanny for 9+ years and a high school teacher for 3 years, before I decided to go back to school. I understand the trust and respect needed when going into your home and will do the job to highest level of respect and integrity.
“Jenevieve is wonderful with my dogs!! They were such happy pups when I came home. She's a clear, effective communicator, responds to messages lightening fast and, as promised, sends multiple photos to document her visits. Highly recommend Jenevieve to any fur parent. It's a wonderful relief to be able to take an out-of-town trip and know that your animals are in great hands while you're gone.”

“Makaela took great care of our two dogs and sent daily updates and photos during feeding times and walks so we knew they were doing well while we were gone. We left specific feeding instructions for our picky eater and he seemed to be well fed when we got home. Would definitely engage Makaela if we have future pet sitting needs.”

About: Growing up with horses, I developed my passion for animals at a young age. I ran a petsitting business for 7 years in Charlotte, NC and am aiming to get started again here on the Central Coast! Experience includes house sitting, livestock care, dog walking, and drop-in care. I do currently work full-time 12 hour shifts Monday through Thursday. I am available in the evenings from 5 to 10 still. Fridays through Sunday are fully available. For seven years, I provided house sitting for many repeat customers that travelled often and for extended periods for work. I have also worked on various horse farms. My breadth of experience allowed me to be flexible with any accommodations you may have. I do have a my dog, Coco, that likes to join along but this is not a requirement.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Templeton is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $28 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 October 2026, there are 676 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Templeton. 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.
