“Loretta helped us on sort notice with puppy sitting our five month old Goldendoodle. She was excellent at communicating and following all instructions. Our dog really loved her and we would definitely use again.”
“Courtney is a wonderful per sitter! She is super thorough with feedback of how the visits go. She is also a great communicator and does well with reading dogs. I have a little one with a big personality who is adjusting to a new routine and environment. I am grateful to Courtney for her assistance in providing structure and comfort to my senior dog during a stressful time!”
About: I've had dogs my whole life, usually two at a time, so walking a pair or keeping up with a high-energy pup feels pretty normal to me. In college I watched friends' dogs on the weekends, and honestly I still jump at any excuse to hang out with one. I'm active and spend a lot of my free time outside, so your dog will get real walks and plenty of playtime, plus some downtime when they're ready to crash. Puppies, big dogs, little dogs, they're all welcome. I'm dependable, I pay attention to the small stuff, and I'll send you photos and updates so you're never left wondering how things are going. I work a regular weekday job, so I'm free weekday evenings after 4:30 and pretty much all day on weekends. I'm also happy to squeeze in an early morning walk before work if your pup needs one. Evenings and weekends are when I'm out walking, hitting the park, and just hanging out. I come to you, so your dog gets to stay home with their own bed, their own smells, and their normal routine. I'll stick to your feeding schedule, meds, and house rules exactly, keep them leashed on walks, and lock up every time I leave. I never take on more than two dogs at once, so nobody gets ignored. You'll get photos and a quick update every visit, and if anything ever seems off, I'll reach out right away.
About: Growing up, my family had a menagerie of pets. In addition to cats and dogs, we had everything from rabbits, chickens, horses, birds, both salt water and fresh water fish. Today, I keep a few species of reptiles and occasionally help my grandma with our two family horses. Looking forward to getting in my cat/dog time in with your pet! I'm widely available mon-fri during the days when most people are at work. While I'm less available on weekends, I am occasionally available on Saturdays. I like to meet animals where they're at and work from there. Whether that means going slow on walks or going to the park to run, is up to the dog. For cats, everything is on their terms also, it just looks different.
About: From a very young age until now, I’ve cared for and owned dogs. I’m experienced in training them to do little tricks as well! I’ll look after your dogs, big or small, young or old! My current weekday availability is in the morning until noon. For weekends, I am usually able to care for your pets all day and into the evening, but that may be subject to change. I can feed your beloved critters and take them outside when needed. Please ask if you have any questions! I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, big and small.
About: I have had and taken care of pets (dogs & cats )pretty much my whole life. I take care of my neighbor’s dogs when they are away or just want me to check in on them when they are working. I have been retired for 5 years now. I would love to be able to take care of someone’s animal. Whether it be just a few walks or just checking in on them to make sure they are safe and happy. I can feed and change litter boxes, provide play time or just a check in while you are away. I know how precious our fur babies are to us as I have 2 cats of my own. I watch my neighbors dog and love her like she was mine. If you select me to take care of your fur baby I will respect you home. I would treat it as if it was my own. I am very trustworthy and meticulous.
About: My experience with animals goes far beyond pet sitting. I began volunteering at a wildlife rehabilitation center at age 10 and continued through age 16, which sparked my lifelong passion for animal care. I went on to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and a Master’s degree in Wildlife Conservation and Ecology. I’ve also worked in multiple veterinary clinics as a surgical assistant and spent a year working in animal control. These experiences have given me hands-on experience handling animals, recognizing changes in behavior, following care instructions, and staying calm in unexpected situations. I understand that every pet has different needs, personalities, and routines. Whether your dog needs an active day, extra patience, medication or special care, or simply a safe and comfortable place to relax, I’m committed to providing attentive, knowledgeable care and treating your pet like one of my own. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine and is something I genuinely enjoy. I have the flexibility to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care rather than treating it as something I squeeze into a busy schedule. My days can include walks, outdoor time, play, enrichment, and plenty of one-on-one attention, while also making sure pets have time to relax and feel comfortable. I’m intentional about keeping each pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible, including their feeding, exercise, and rest schedules. I also enjoy being active outdoors, so dogs who love walks and adventures will have plenty of opportunities to get their energy out! Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, habits, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before their stay. My background in wildlife rehabilitation, veterinary clinics, and animal control has taught me how important it is to pay close attention to behavior and recognize when something is out of the ordinary. I’m comfortable handling animals with different personalities and energy levels and understand the importance of patience, supervision, and a calm environment. I also love keeping dogs active with walks, play, enrichment, and outdoor time when appropriate. Most importantly, I treat every pet as an individual and care for them with the same attentiveness and respect I would want for my own. I have my own fenced in yard and a large sized kennel in my home if needed.
About: I have walked a friends dog for around 2 years. I also sat for them once last year. I also take care of my dog of 4 years. I am a free for almost the entire day,except on Sundays. The evening I like to keep clear just in case. This schedule might change once I get a job. I love walking dogs, especially in the mornings when it’s cool. This service is easy to take off an owners plate, when they need it.
“Allyson is great with our pups, super reliable, and has a lot of experience with animals, which gave us a lot of confidence leaving our senior dogs with her! Will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats with various energy levels and personalities for two decades. With a fenced in yard, and a beautiful shaded walking path next door. As well as plenty of breaks all day long. I mostly work from home so this keeps my pet schedule open to help! I have experience with large and small breeds from Yorkies to Huskies and Giant Schnauzers. On top of that I’m a Tortie mom that is familiar with the Tortitude. Animals make life better 🫶🏻 I work remotely most days so my animals get a lot of play time. We get cabin fever without some exercise. I’m up early, my animals always eat first thing with a small amount of training. Then an energetic play session inside, in the fenced yard, or walk on the shaded neighborhood walking path. The animals get to rest and play on the property or inside while I work or knock out house chores. Lunch comes with another play and potty break and some mental health enrichment for the second half of the day. I wrap up work and prep everyone’s dinner. One more session of play before bed and then lights out for everyone. We usually keep together in the same room unless someone has a preference that day. Talk to me about the needs of your pet and we can build a plan together. I’m not a certified trainer but I’m happy to support the goals of the family by maintaining that standard of care your pet appreciates. I’m very fortunate to have the time and space to support various needs.
About: Hello my name is Aléna, I’ve been taking care of animals since I was little. Animals are so amazing to me and I love their personality’s. Looking forward to meeting you pet. My availability is really open, don’t have any dogs of my own, but grew up with them. I miss the connection. So I thought, I would put myself out there, to help service them. In my home I care for my cat Bella by giving her lots of love and making sure to keep her litter box cleaned and let her have her outside time around the yard. My cat Toby, I give him treats and try to teach him some tricks. Give lots of attention and time to play with his toys. He’s a little monster but I love him. Having a clean environment is not only necessary for your animals but yourself. I do the litter box multiple times a week.
About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 9 and I’ve taken care of cats since I was in kindergarten. When going to friend’s homes I am respectful of special diets for their fur babies and follow the family’s list of requirements for their pets. I’ve taken care of pets for both friends and family. I’ve helped feed, walk and administer meds. Im working part time so I will have plenty of time to spend with pets to play, feed, walk and help enrich their lives while you’re away. I am playful, caring and gentle with furry friends. I like to make them feel as comfortable as possible around me so they know they can trust me. I like to also get to know the family and how they care for their pet in different circumstances to make sure I am doing things that your pet is used to.
About: I love caring for dogs of all ages and sizes! My family calls me the “dog whisperer” and I’m highly reliable and can almost always meet your time requirements for check-ins and walks! I pay attention to detail in case your dog has to take medication or has other restrictions (diet, joints, etc.). I currently work full-time as a Law Enforcement Professional. I am typically working Tues-Fri 7a-530p. I am available to drop in and care for your fur babies any time around that schedule with proper notice. I will only walk your fur baby on the requested route should there be one, and for the requested time. During check-ins, I will make sure to clean up any messes made by your fur baby upon arrival and before I leave. If there are any special instructions regarding the care of your fur baby, I will be sure to adhere to those as well.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Vacaville
Camille was the perfect sitter for my two dogs! I booked 10 days of drop-in visits and the whole experience was smooth. She visited my dogs twice a day and my pups loved her. I enjoyed all of the updates and photos that were sent. Camille was a quick communicator anytime I had a question while I was away. I appreciated that she was able to take care of my senior Husky with chronic arthritis, which I was the most nervous about since he can be picky with who tends to him. I would absolutely book Camille again!
Liz did a great job with our cat Arthur! We came back to him in good spirits, fed and happy to have a friend to hang with. Liz was very attentive to him, paying attention to the details of our instructions, but also taking initiative when stuff came up. We would definitely work with her again!
Shawna is a “Dog Whisperer”. She is reliable and trustworthy beyond compare. If you want unmatched care for your pets and peace of mind for yourself, a single booking with Shawna means you will automatically receive both! She is quite literally the best; and is a true master of her trade.
Ashley was great with our older cat Cleo. I could tell from our meet and greet that Ashley would be good, as Cleo (who doesn’t typically like people) responded well to Ashley right away. Ashley showed up as scheduled every day to spend time with Cleo, sent pictures, and communicated quickly with us. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a responsible, caring pet sitter!
I went on a work trip to DC for a week and Brandon made having to leave Drax at home so much easier and took a lot of stress out of it. He provided daily updates and did even more than I even expected him to do. I am sure Drax is going to miss the week he spent with Brandon checking on him and keeping him company
Morgan was so wonderful! Needed a mid day drop-in for my senior dog. Reached out with only a day or so notice (my fault) and Morgan was able to help no problem! Always nice to have a sitter in the area you can count on and trust, Morgan is definitely on my list ᵕ̈

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Vacaville is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $39 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 3,483 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Vacaville. 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 Vacaville. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
