“My husband and I suddenly found ourselves out of town and needing someone to take care of our pup the last day of our vacation. Kristen was able to help us on very short notice not once but twice (as our flight home got delayed). She did a fantastic job with our Marley, recognizing that she has a lot of energy and running with her, feeding her and sending us plenty of pictures of her and keeping in communication with us. We are so SO thankful Kristen was able to take care of Marley. We can tell she truly cares about the pets she babysits. We will definitely be using her again!”

“I could not recommend Alison enough - she was beyond amazing! We have a rescue dog who is very fear aggressive and Alison took the time to come meet with him to see if they’d be a good match. She is so patient and kind, and that’s all we wanted for our older rescue. Alison also communicated with us on everything and was very timely. I came home to a relaxed, well taken care of pup. 10/10, book with Alison!”

“I can’t thank Mary enough for taking care of my little girl while I was gone. I was a nervous wreck but she goes above and beyond for our loved ones. Also she is an animal whisper and my cat looked forward to seeing her everyday, she made sure that my kitty was set up for the rest of her day with her drop in visit! Cannot say enough good things about Mary’s visit!”

About: Hi, I’m Kylee. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a 15‑year‑old Pomeranian and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, especially seniors or animals with unique personalities. I’ve spent years volunteering with shelters, including the SPCA, where I became a behavioral specialist. I worked with dogs and cats who needed extra support, helping them build confidence, reduce anxiety, and become more adoptable. That experience taught me how to read body language, respond calmly, and meet each animal exactly where they are. I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I would only use kennels if it is your preference. I want your pets to feel they’re at a second home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m already used to caring for my own senior Pomeranian and two cats, so feeding schedules, check‑ins, and quiet companionship are part of my everyday life. Going on walks is something I do daily, both for my dog and for myself, so adding a few more paws to the routine feels completely natural. I also volunteer regularly with local shelters, which keeps me connected to animals with all kinds of personalities and needs. Caring for pets is already woven into my week, and I genuinely enjoy making space for it. I keep things simple and comfortable for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give animals regular attention, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. At home, I follow routines closely and make sure my senior Pomeranian and two cats have a calm, predictable environment — and I bring that same approach to clients’ pets. In their home, I stick to their normal schedule, keep things tidy, and pay attention to what makes them feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make them feel cared for and at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve had dogs and/or cats since I was 4 and was always the one caring for them. I started pet sitting 6 years ago after watching a neighbors pet and realizing how much i enjoyed caring for them. I love walking, feeding and playing with them. On occasion i’ve found myself having to get them cleaned up after a day of fun so bathing isn’t a problem. I’m currently working part time from home and flexible with times. I’m an early riser therefore mornings don’t bother me and depending on distance I can be available in the evening. Currently I have two cats so their fun activities are kept indoors. There’s a cat tree they love to relax on and they both LOVE water so i’ll give them fresh water from the faucet. In clients home I’ll abide by any preferences they have for their pets and play with them non stop.

About: I grew up with two dogs that filled my life with so much joy. I just want to give that to your dogs even if it’s just a walk, a check in, or even a long term service. I have open availability to care for your fur babies. I do have a part time job but will be able to schedule around those few shifts I have a week. My priority is your animals! I am very adamant on keeping all dogs on leash unless in a gated backyard or at a dog park dependent on how they interact with other dogs and owners wishes.

“Sydney does an amazing job taking care of my dog Bronsan while I’m at work! He always has a fun time hanging out with her. She does a perfect job showing up on time to his walks and does great communicating with me. Even recently, she protected my dog from an unleashed pitbull attack so I don’t think it gets any better than that. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I’ve taken care of my senior dogs with health issues who needed lots of patience, love and medication as well as pet sit for my neighbors 2 dogs multiple times a year over the last 10 years. I have grown up with a variety of dogs (English bulldog, chow chow, Pomeranian) and was a regular dog-sitter for my friend’s dogs (dachshund, golden retriever, lab). I love to be outside and go for walks and would love to bring along a dog who needs some outside time. I don’t currently have a dog of my own and miss dogs being a part of my days! I am happy to send picture updates on walks/drop ins :) I work a hybrid work schedule annd wil work from home 2 days per week. I am available for daytime drop ins, before and after work walks as well as weekend walks/drop ins I live in a very dog friendly apartment with a dog park and walking trail access. I am comfortable taking your pets to any places they frequent around your home as well (parks, trails etc).

About: dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’m also a college athlete, so I’m very active and would love taking your pup on walks, playing with them, and keeping them entertained! I’ve also gone along with a close friend who works for Rover multiple times, which has given me experience seeing what goes into caring for different dogs and making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, and caring, and I always want to make sure each dog’s individual routine and needs are followed. I’ll treat your pup like my own and keep you updated with pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands! As a college athlete, I have a busy but structured schedule, so I’m very good at planning ahead and managing my time. I’m happy to work pet care into my daily routine and make sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting depending on my class and practice schedule, and I’ll always communicate my availability clearly with each owner. When caring for a pet, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including their feeding schedule, walks, medications if needed, and any specific routines or preferences. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are never put in unsafe situations. Since I’ve owned four dogs myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll give each dog plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles while also respecting their space and personality. I’ll also keep owners updated with pictures and messages so they know their pup is happy and doing well.

About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved animals. My family has fostered dogs for many years, so I've cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, backgrounds, and needs. All of my own pets are rescues, which has taught me how important patience, compassion, and making a dog feel safe and comfortable can be. As a college student away from my fur babies back home, I am so excited to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles while you're away. I am a college student, so my schedule is a bit wonky; please feel free to message me with any questions! My typical availability is listed below: Monday: 11:45-3:00 & After 4:50 Tuesday: After 11:30 Wednesday: 11:45-3:00 & After 4:50 Thursday: After 11:30 Friday: After 11:45 Saturday & Sunday: Unavailable unless arranged in advance I am open to anything regarding your pet's lifestyle. Whether that’s long walks or even runs, crating, potty training, car rides, or lots and lots of play!

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had dogs of many different breeds my entire life, which has given me a deep understanding of their personalities and needs. I also worked in a shelter, where I cared for over 50 dogs, so I’m comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and special situations. I’m patient, attentive, and truly committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs extra care, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I structure my day to make sure pets get regular walks, feeding, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I’m flexible with my schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s needs—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I also make sure to dedicate quality time so pets feel comfortable, safe, and not alone. Caring for pets isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy every day. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I always follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean, comfortable space where they can relax and feel secure. I give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their individual personality and energy level. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I’m very respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also pay close attention to behavior and health, and I’m comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and seniors who may need extra patience and care.

Lexi is a lifesaver! We needed someone asap and she went above and beyond to help. She instantly became our go-to caregiver for our dog and we feel blessed to have found her. From the start, our dog was so excited to meet her as if he's known her forever. Our dog is very friendly, but every once in a while he meets someone and it's as though he/she is a long lost friend. Lexi is one of these people. A new friend to our Oakley and our family for sure!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Tierra Verde

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Tierra Verde on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

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 September 2026, there are 6,339 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tierra Verde. 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 Tierra Verde 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Tierra Verde. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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 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.
