About: I live in the Sacramento Delta in a quiet neighborhood. Great neighborhood for walks and a nice fenced corner lot yard for your pup to run around in. I live with my elderly father who enjoys meeting new doggy friends. 24 hr supervision since I work remotely! I’m an early riser and enjoy morning walks. Your doggy will recieve a good amount of outdoor time and have an active and stimulating day. I’m comfortable with your dog sleeping in bed with me but respect if you prefer them to sleep in a crate. I work remotely so I have no issue staying at your house as well!

Excellent experience! She took wonderful care of Rubí over the weekend. She was kind, responsible, and kept me updated with photos and messages, which gave me great peace of mind. Rubí was happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her, and I would definitely trust her to care for my dog again!

This is the second time Megan took care of Lilo & Stitch for us and she was wonderful! She sent lots of pictures and gave us a summary of the drop in visit. Best of all she was able to drop in on a short notice. We look forward to booking her again in the future!

About: We are a mother, daughter duo! You may meet myself YingYing or Annie, my daughter. However, we provide the same adequate care! Animal sitting has been a big thing of ours since we can remember and now that we have adopted Bingo, it has pushed us to do this full-time. We have had Bingo for about 3 years with no issues and no emergency pet visits. She is healthy and lively albeit a little lazy. You can say she is at the top of our food chain in our household. We live in an area where there are trails right next to our house for walks and the park is a block away. We also have a minivan that can take the doggies to the park if they have mobility issues. We are equipped in handling pushy dogs when they are walking and can control their behaviors. Additionally, we can read some body cues from dogs. Please message or email us before booking so we are aware of your dog’s situation and are able to care for them to the full extent. I am currently a stay at home mom with kids aged 10 and 14 so I can accept bookings whenever is necessary. I intend to pet sit as a full time job with opening on the weekends as well. Bingo is quite calm and careless. She is trained to go into a bedroom on command and we have multiple helping hands to situate her and your own fur baby.

Tim was awesome! Came over to my house several times to meet my dogs and took time to understand their routine. On his drop in he kept me updated with what was going on and kept me updated with what was happening! Even sent me a few photos! Would totally recommend him and use him again!

About: Our family of five all love animals. We currently care for our 11 year old cat, but we have had collective experience caring for multiple cats and dogs in the past. We have experience with large dog breeds, puppies, and kittens. In the past 16 years, our family has rescued and rehomed or cared for 6 different animals. Our 10 year old daughter loves cats. Our 6 year old son wants desperately to run around with and love on a dog. And our 9 month old gets so excited whenever he sees any fur baby. Our family would be happy to care for your pet in your absence. We are happy to keep you updated on the status of your pet and provide love, care and fun during your pets stay with us! I am a stay at home Mom and only work on freelance basis. I am home most days and throughout the day with my youngest while my other kids are in school. My husband is home most nights, and our family works as a team. We will do so to care for your pet as well, so your pet has lots of love and care from many. We have a fenced yard and a shy 11 year old cat who likes to stay in her room most days. We have plenty of room in our home and a decent backyard with lots of walking trails nearby.

About: I have been a pet owner since I entered the world. Most of my experience is with dogs, but I do have two cats. As of now, most of my pet-sitting jobs have been for close family friends. I am just starting on my Rover journey. I am a college student who is looking to help pay for my college expenses. I'm only offering Friday-Sunday right now since I will be working during the week and don't have a flexible schedule. On the weekends, your dogs will have my full attention :) I do not provide care in my own home. I will work with you to ensure that your pet feels safe with me while I am in their space.

About: For the past four years, I have raised and cared for chickens, lambs, and goats for our county fair. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning pens, changing water, and walking and training each animal one to two times daily. I always made sure to dedicate consistent, quality time to properly train and care for each of my animals. While these are not the specific types of animals I would be caring for in this position, I believe this experience reflects my strong work ethic, responsibility, and ability to care for animals of all sizes and needs. In addition to my fair experience, I have had animals my entire life. Currently, I have three dogs and ten chickens at home, and I am responsible for their daily care, including feeding, cleaning, and overall needs. My oldest dog is 15 years old, and I have been primarily responsible for his care for the past seven years. Most of my experience is with small dogs under 20 pounds, but I have also walked and cared for larger dogs weighing around 100 pounds. Additionally I have been a prominent member of Tokay FFA’s Veterinary science team, on this team I’ve learned dozens of minor medical procedures that I am confident in doing such as administration of various medications via oral, aural, and injections, bandage wrapping and removal, and the concept of safe handling with all kinds of animals. I am well versed in many species of animals, ages, and sizes so I hope to be a good fit for your beloved pets. I am currently on summer break and will be attending college this coming fall, as of right now my schedule is fairly open. T is a few days where my hours may change, but overall I am available at all times of day every day to fit your needs. Times are subject to change and if I ever have a conflict I will be sure to notify you with proper prior notice to ensure your pets are taken care of. If there is fences at your home I will always be sure to lock and close them behind me if your pets are inside, I am also well versed in handling larger dogs/animals so I will not easily be pushed to the side if your pet is prone to doing so. I am confident in my animal handling skills and if your dog needs to be fenced in or crated I am confident I can do so.

About: I do in kennel enrichment and dog walking at the SPCA. It has educated me a lot about positive reinforcement training, desensitization, compassion, and counter conditioning within dog behavior. I am very understanding of every dog's different temperaments and boundaries. I am the proud owner of Max, an 11 year old Pitbull who has been my best friend for over a decade. I am available anytime after 12pm, where your dog’s established routine becomes my priority. Whether they need strict mid-day feeding times or frequent potty breaks throughout the afternoon, I will be there for your pet. I am able to offer consistent, focused attention, structured enrichment, and companionship exactly when your pet needs it most. Safety is my top priority, with SPCA volunteer training and 11 years with my senior Pitbull, Max. In your home, I strictly follow your routine, maintain your house rules, and ensure all doors and gates stay locked and secure. On walks, my shelter experience means I am hyper-aware of our surroundings, good at reading dog body language, and fully confident being your dog's handler. I will send you regular photo updates so you have total peace of mind.

About: Hi! I’m Alina!, an animal lover with several years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds and sizes. Whether it’s energetic playtime, a long walk, or just cozy companionship, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique needs and personality. I’m very patient, reliable, and safety-focused—I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m comfortable handling multiple pets, and following detailed care instructions. Whether your pup needs exercise, belly rubs, or just someone to keep them company, I’m here to help. Your pet’s happiness and comfort are my top priorities! I currently work a part-time job, which gives me the flexibility to dedicate plenty of quality time to pet care. My work schedule is consistent, and I plan my availability around it to ensure I can give your pet the attention, care, and punctual service they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening visits, I make sure each booking fits comfortably into my day so your pet always feels prioritized, not rushed. Caring for my own pets is a big part of my daily routine and something I truly enjoy. I make sure they stay on a consistent feeding and potty schedule, get plenty of exercise, and always have fresh water. I prioritize regular playtime, mental stimulation, and lots of affection to keep them happy and healthy.

About: Hi! My name is Liz. I recently re-downloaded Rover after being away for a few years, and I’m excited to start pet sitting again through Rover. I’m a college graduate with years of experience caring for pets through my mom’s Rover account, along with ongoing cat sitting jobs and trusted repeat clients. I’m known for being a great communicator, dependable, and attentive to both pets and owners. I offer house sitting, drop-ins, walks, overnight care, and can also help with light household tasks like bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, pulling trash cans in or out, and keeping your home tidy while you’re away. I especially love caring for senior pets and pets who do best staying in the comfort of their own home. I understand every animal has different needs, personalities, and routines, and I always try to make them feel safe and comfortable while you’re gone. For overnight stays, my fiancé may occasionally accompany me for safety and comfort purposes, but your pet’s care and respect for your home always come first. I’m happy to communicate openly beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and confident. Feel free to message me anytime with questions. I respond quickly and would love to see if we’re a good fit for you and your pets! Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I currently have a very flexible schedule during the week. Outside of pet sitting, I spend my time applying to jobs in clinical research, running errands, doing chores, and meeting with friends, which gives me plenty of availability and flexibility for drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute bookings. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so caring for pets never feels like a chore to me. I’m very attentive with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, litter box cleaning, medications if needed, and making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. At this time, I only offer care in my client’s home because I have an anxious 9-year-old tabby cat at home, and I want to keep his environment calm and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always try to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. For overnight stays, I usually stay in the guest room or designated area of the home, and many pets enjoy sleeping nearby or spending time with me throughout the day. I’m very respectful of your home and prioritize cleanliness, safety, and communication. I make sure doors are securely locked, pets are supervised carefully, and feeding, walks, litter box cleaning, playtime, and potty breaks are handled consistently. I also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort level to help reduce stress and keep them happy during your absence. My goal is always to create a calm, trustworthy, and loving environment where both you and your pets feel comfortable and cared for.

About: I’ve had a passion for animals since I was 10 years old. Growing up, I often brought home stray dogs and cats that needed love, care, and a safe place to stay. I’ve also helped friends, family, and neighbors by caring for their pets while they were out of town or busy with work. I always made sure their pets stayed on their normal feeding, potty, and exercise routines, and I treated every animal as if they were my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for your furry family members. I’m reliable, responsive, and happy to provide updates while you’re away. If you have any questions, feel free to send me a message, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities. I will follow their daily routine, provide plenty of playtime, exercise, love, and attention, and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. If your pet has any special needs, medications, or instructions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate them. In addition to caring for your pets, I’ll also help keep your home tidy and in order so you can return to a clean, stress-free environment. It would be my pleasure to care for your pets and give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing they’re in loving and capable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I schedule my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive the attention they deserve. Whether it’s morning walks, feeding, potty breaks, playtime, or overnight care, I’m committed to keeping your pet on their normal routine. I provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. In your home, I’ll respect your space, follow all care instructions, and keep everything clean and organized. I make sure pets always have fresh water, plenty of exercise, lots of affection, and a safe, stress-free environment where they feel loved and secure.

About: I've been housesitting since 2010, mainly cats and dogs. Multi-pet houses don't bother me and I'm good at keeping with your fur kids' schedules. I have and RVT license that is current and have been an RVT for over 10 years. I took a break from housesitting to work at animal hospitals, including a 24-hour critical care hospital in the ICU. Medications and medical treatments are no problem for me. I have an open schedule and am comfortable with either staying at your home for your pet's comfort, or I can visit everyday to make sure they are cared for. I adjust to their wants and needs and stick to their schedule. I'm low stress and understand that sometimes pets just need to warm up to you. As for my personal pets, there's four cats with totally different personalities that run the house (I just live there).

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Walnut Grove on Rover is $13.91 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 3,681 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Walnut Grove. 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 Walnut Grove 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 Walnut Grove. On Rover:

  • 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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 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.
