“Alisha arrived exactly when asked to and treated my girl so well. Her updates are thorough and fun to read, and she took lots of cute pics of our pup. Even though our dog is rather shy, Alisha quickly build trust with her.”

About: Throughout high school, I would help dog-sit for family friends. I was very reliable and able to help feed, walk, and play with their animals. I also cared for coworkers' animals when they were gone for vacation, and I was entrusted with keeping their living space clean. Growing up, I had four large dogs: 2 labs and 2 boxer mixes. I work as a vet assistant, so I have hands-on experience when it comes to administering medication. I currently work part-time as a vet assistant, so I have a lot of free time on the days I don't go in, giving me plenty of time to care for your fur babies. I'm available most days throughout the week; just reach out! I like to go in and make it seem like I was never there. Simply do what is asked of me and leave without causing any disturbance. When it comes to the fur babies, I like to care for them as if they are my own and treat them like my own pets. I'm more than happy to help tidy up any place as well.

About: I have cared for many pets in my life (a dog, cat, tortoise, 4 birds, 2 fish, and 9 hamsters to be exact) so my love for animals is a huge part of who I am! I currently live with my Ragdoll cat, Myko, and he is my bestie. I have taught him tricks, we go for walks on his leash or in his stroller, and we start and end every day with playtime. Giving animals beautiful experiences in their life and filling their days with love is so important to me, and I would love to meet and care for your furry loved ones as well! I love to go for walks and spend time with animals, so wherever I can fit in some time with your pet I am willing! I am very attentive to your pet's specific needs such as a specific diet, certain toys they may love, a certain park they want to run around in, or certain tricks they need to practice for that yummy treat! Your pet's safety and happiness is always top priority!

About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a middle schooler. Between my family dogs and dogs who have lived in my home since then I have been responsible for at least 7 dogs, of all shapes, sizes and demeanors. I've kept moody Dachshunds, energetic Shelties, even tempered Retrievers and even rescue Pitbulls. I love hiking and getting outdoors, and bringing a canine friend along. I currently have one dog of my own, a peppy rescue mix, and he is my best friend I am available to dog/house sit very regularly. I am an ecological land designer working most days from home with the exception of days where I need to do a site visit or connect with my team in person. I can pretty much work from anywhere with a good internet connection, so most days would be able to be around in case your dog needs more frequent walks or attention. In addition to dogs I love other pets and plants! If you have house plants, a veggie garden or other plants that need some watering or attention while you're away I'll be able to help in the department as well! I work from home most days, so I am able to be flexible around a pets needs regarding feeding, walks, and medication. Ocassionally I do have to leave home for work, and that is typically up to 4 hours. We have one dog at home and since we don't have a yard, we typically take him up on the ridge to walk, or to the Red hill Dog park or San Quentin beach. These are great places to have some fun exercise

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for a variety of pets. I currently have a 19-year-old Sulcata tortoise and a dwarf hamster, and I previously had two cats of my own. I’ve also done dog walking and pet sitting for two large Golden doodles, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities. I am responsible and attentive to each pet’s individual needs. I will help with walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins while maintaining your pet’s usual routine. I’ll also keep your home and any areas I use clean, so everything is in order when you get home. I’ll send photo updates throughout my visits so you know how your pet is doing! I work as an on-call nurse, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I can usually work pet sitting and dog walking into my week and am happy to coordinate with you to find a time that works! When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I’ll walk and play with dogs, and keep cats fed with fresh water and clean litter boxes, and will give them lots of company. I’ll keep your home clean and send photos and updates so you know how they’re doing while you’re away!

“Pat was an incredible help for my family! Pat helped with drop in visits to take care of my cat while my husband and I were in the hospital to give birth to our baby! Pat was flexible and understanding of the schedule changes, and most importantly she gave us a peace of mind — her updates and pictures of my cat Risa showed clearly that even though we had to leave her for almost a week, she was doing great and I didn’t need to stress! All of that in an extremely bad heatwave — Pat made sure to turn on fans and bring Risa to a room with AC on. Pat also made sure to text both my husband and me on Rover, so we both could get the updates. She checked in on us too, which we appreciated! In the few days that Pat helped us we felt like we had a trustworthy and caring friend and that something that is so rare to find! Thank you, Pat!”

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. 🐾 What sets me apart is that I truly take the time to understand each dog’s individual needs, routine, personality, and energy level. I’m patient, reliable, and attentive, and I treat every dog like part of my own family. I also have experience with basic puppy care, reinforcing good behavior during walks, and providing gentle, attentive care for senior dogs. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy while in my care. ❤️🐶 Pet care is an important part of my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the dogs in my care. I plan my days around their needs, including walks, playtime, feeding, enrichment, and plenty of love and attention. I prioritize providing a calm, safe, and personalized experience for every dog I care for. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where every pet can feel at home. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, routine, needs, and comfort level so they receive personalized care. During walks, I always prioritize safety, using secure leashes and paying close attention to the surroundings, other dogs, people, and traffic. I also follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and daily routines. For dogs staying in my home, I provide a calm, clean, and supervised environment with plenty of attention, outdoor time, play, and opportunities for exercise and socialization. I have a secure yard and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable throughout their stay. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, loved, and cared for as if they were part of my own family. 🌻🐾

About: I grew up surrounded by all kinds of pets and have owned both cats and a dog as an adult, which was a Dalmatian—describe them as eternally young. :-) I'm an active individual whose current living situation doesn't allow pets so would love to help with yours! Those of you in the Larkspur/Greenbrae area may recognize me from walks on the local paths where I’m able to greet many dogs. While on vacation, I also seek out opportunities to contribute or volunteer for various animal causes, which you’ll see in some of my pictures. I'm retired so my schedule is generally flexible unless I'm out of town for personal reasons. Choosing a more limited radius at this point enables greater schedule flexibility, and to be close to local resources should a need arise. I will pet sit in your home so that your fur baby has all of their normal comforts and routines. I realize not all owners have a fenced yard for a dog so understand the importance of daily walks. I always welcome the opportunity to meet or chat about your needs in advance, so that you may advise of any behaviors for which I'll need to be more mindful. I care for fur babies of at least one year of age. NOTE: I only have experience providing meds to dogs, not cats. Due to allergies, I’m unable to sit in homes with cigarette smoke or with whole house carpeting (in bedrooms is fine). I'm a neat, tidy person who's very responsible--former homeowner.

“Caroline did a great job checking in with my kitty! When I leave my cat alone she gets stressed out and lets me know when I get back by acting out. Caroline was able to reduce her stress when I had to leave (in the middle of moving in) and my kitty was happy and well behaved when I got back. I loved all of the photos she sent each check-in and knowing she was being cared for. Will be booking with her again!”

About: I am a caring pet owner who is very attuned to animals' needs and wants. After working at a dog boarding center I gained skills with dogs of all ages and sizes. I'm currently free to work seven days per week and flexible around which hours so I think I will be the best fit for your pets around the clock. I am available for dog walking, boarding, drop in visits, and doggie daycare. I have a friendly, playful 10 year old dog named Quincy who I walk and feed in the evening, and give a weekly bath to. We also have two cats who are mostly outside cats but they both come in during the night. We have a lagoon in the backyard and plenty of sidewalks to walk near by.

Aline is a fantastic pet sitter. She's kind, caring and attentive. She looked after our two senior cats whilst we were away and did a great job. Communication was super easy and she followed the instructions with no problems. It put my mind at ease knowing she was taking great care of our gals. I highly recommend Aline!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Woodacre

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Woodacre is $36 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $26 and $41 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 November 2026, there are 9,502 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Woodacre. 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 Woodacre. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 89% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 93% 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.
