Ariel is AMAZING!!! She did such a good job with my cat, who has special needs and is a senior. I felt so comfortable with leaving my cat and know Ariel will take good care of her. Will defiantly contact her again when I go on trips.

About: Loving, Structured, & Safe Care — Dogs Are Never Left Alone Hi! We’re Felicia & Larry, and caring for dogs is part of our everyday life—not just a service. With a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), we bring a calm, structured, and positive approach to every dog we care for. That means we understand behavior, read body language, and help dogs feel safe, confident, and comfortable—whether they’re energetic puppies or older dogs who need a slower pace. What your dog’s stay looks like: Supervised care all day (we both work from home) Regular walks, playtime, and attention A calm, structured environment tailored to your dog Very little time left alone (only short errands) We treat every dog like part of our family. We follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so they feel right at home. Safety is our top priority: We introduce dogs slowly, supervise all interactions, and pay close attention to comfort levels at all times. 📸 You’ll also get regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Whether your dog needs structure, patience, or just lots of love - we’ve got you covered. I work from home and my fiancé is home as well, so dogs are rarely left alone. Pet care is built into our daily routine, with regular walks, playtime, and supervision. Any time away is limited to short school pick-ups or errands, and we make sure dogs are safe and settled before leaving. Safety is always our priority. We introduce dogs slowly, supervise all interactions, and pay close attention to behavior and comfort levels. We follow each pet’s routine closely — including feeding, walks, crate use, and any special instructions — to help them feel secure. Whether in our home or yours, we provide dependable care and regular updates.

About: I am a current medical student with a little bit of free time and have had a dog myself for over 12 years. Since I don’t get to live with a dog currently, I really miss it. I am a certified cuddler and simply want to give some love to your furry best friend! :) Taking care of your loving four-legged companion is not a chore to me at all. It is the best way I would fill in my free time! I am going to make sure that your friend is always full of joy and excitement throughout their time hanging out with me! I try my best to take them to parks and on long walks so they can experience many adventures!

Taylor is quick to respond and accommodating. Our dog warmed right up to her. She arrived on time and sent pictures for us while we were away.

Amber did a fabulous job at taking care of my three older cats, including one who needed frequent medication to prevent seizures. Her communication was great. She was flexible even when a scheduling conflict occurred. She followed the care instructions very well, and was very patient and caring with the cats. I'd absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for and walking dogs, including German Shepherds and a Goldendoodle, which I cared for over the past 2 years. I am comfortable with both large and active breeds and understand their need for regular exercise, attention, and consistency. I am a responsible, patient, and caring person who truly loves animals. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for—just like at home. I pay attention to each dog’s personality and needs, whether it’s energetic walks, gentle handling, or simply companionship. You can trust me to treat your pet with kindness, respect, and full attention. I can follow specific care instructions I have a flexible schedule and can provide pet care on both weekdays and weekends. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and extended care depending on your needs. I enjoy spending time outdoors and making sure dogs get enough exercise, attention, and care every day. I always prioritize the safety and comfort of every pet in my care. I carefully follow all owner instructions, including feeding, walking routines, and any special needs. I’m attentive, patient, and experienced with both active and sensitive dogs. I make sure pets feel calm and secure, whether in their home or during walks. I treat every animal with kindness, respect, and full responsibility, as if they were my own.

About: I am overall very excited about the opportunity to watch your pup! I have always had dogs around my home ranging from 40 pounds to 130 pounds. I have an active lifestyle that I would love to encompass with some walks with your dog(s). I have puppy skills training as I have trained mine in the past including obedience, potty, & leash training. I also am willing to help your senior dog as I understand the constraints that some may have due to aging concerns. I am fairly flexible, as I do remote work. I start early in the morning around 6am and finish around 2:30pm on the weekdays. I am happy to set up initial meetings if that makes you feel more comfortable with me watching your babies, as well as provide references from past clients. I also love to update with daily photos of your pup as I have an interest in photography as well! I have a huge love for dogs, and am excited about the opportunity to meet you and your pups!

Amber did a great job with my little land shark of a puppy during his drop in visit, he was worn out and slept good the rest of the afternoon and the best part is he wasn’t a complete monster when I got him from work from being in his x pen all day. She even brought in the packages that were left at my door before her visit. Will def use her again when the need arises.

Angela was absolutely amazing with my two cats! She did 3 drop-in visits a day, each for 30 minutes, and went above and beyond during every visit. I really appreciated how attentive and caring she was, she took the time to send me lots of pictures and very detailed report notes after each visit, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept me updated on everything, from how much they were eating to their behavior and playtime. It was clear from the updates that she took her time to engage with them, not just to feed and clean up, but also to make sure they were comfortable and happy. Both of my girls warmed up to her quickly, and that says a lot, they can be shy with new people. I would absolutely recommend Angela to anyone looking for a responsible, communicative, and genuinely caring pet sitter. I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Aberdeen on Rover is $19.98 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 19 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Aberdeen. 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 Aberdeen 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
