“Holly is a fantastic pet sitter! She takes good care of all of my critters and I have no worries when I am away. My dog loves her to pieces. Holly communicates well during her visits and sends pictures every time she drops by. Thank you, Holly!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Jake, who stopped by twice to care for our three cats and did an amazing job! Communication was excellent throughout, and he was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about our cats’ well-being. We would absolutely trust Jake again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for dependable and trustworthy pet care.”
About: I’ve had a dog in my family for as long as I can remember, from my childhood husky Ginger to our current family pekingese Alley. I absolutely adore dogs and jump at every chance to hang out with any of my friends dogs as well. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes, including those with special medical needs. I currently work part time at a restaurant and will be dedicated to your pet’s care every second I am not at work. I would never accept a job that would require me to compromise a pet’s needs and they will always come first in my life. I am committed to following any and all instructions given for dog/cat care. I understand that being in someone else’s home means following their rules and I will respect any spaces I am invited into.
About: Dogs have been a central part of my life for as long as I can remember! I currently have two wonderful dogs of my own, so I fully understand the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pup is in safe, loving hands. What I offer for your dog: Active Walks & Exercise: Customized walks tailored to your dog’s pace, energy level, and favorite sniffing spots. Medication Administration: Experienced and confident administering oral, liquid, or topical medications accurately and on time. Personalized Attention: Whether your dog is a high-energy ball-fetcher or a calm cuddle bug, I adapt to their routine and personality. Reliable Routine Care: Timely feedings, fresh water, and attentive supervision to keep your dog comfortable and happy. I maintain a very flexible schedule with wide availability most days of the week. Whether you need last-minute drop-in visits, consistent midday dog walks, or customized care times, I’m easily reachable and happy to accommodate your pet's regular routine. I make every visit smooth and worry-free by following your exact entry and security instructions—whether using keypads, lockboxes, or garage codes. If we aren't able to meet in person prior to your booking, I am fully equipped to handle seamless remote onboardings via detailed written notes, photos, or a quick phone call. During every visit or walk, I treat your home with total respect, keep safety as my top priority, and send detailed Rover cards with clear photos so you always know your pet is secure, comfortable, and well-cared for.
About: I have had breeds of all shapes and sized my entire life. I care for my 2 year old border collie and I have experience handling cats as well. I want to make your pets feel at home even when you are away. I would want the best from my boy when I am away, so I want to provide that service to others! I am full-time employee so I can stop in before and after work on weekdays, and I am free weekends for endless playing ! (I can stay in the evening during the week until around 8-9) I am very respectful of other people’s spaces and would be happy to meet your animal where they are! I do NOT offer boarding currently.
About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs for about 10 years now, through my friends, family, neighbors and my own 2 puppies! I’m a college athlete who’s very active, so I’m happy to run/play and keep energetic dogs exercised while also making sure they feel loved, safe, and cared for! Pet care has always been a part of my daily routine, caring for my own two dogs! However, I’m a college student now, who lives an hour away from home, but I’m back for weekends and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I provide a safe, fun environment for pets. I have a fenced yard for running around outside, and two friendly dogs who would love to make friends! I closely supervise pets and will follow all instructions/special requests strictly from owners!
“Thank you for checking in on my sweet pups!! I knew they were in great hands, and i received lots of adorable pictures! They even gave my cat, Nori, some love!! Will definitely book with you again!”
“I couldn't be happier with the cat-sitting service provided by Myah over Christmas! Allison was content and well-cared for, and we appreciated the daily updates. Myah's reliability and genuine love for our cat made our holiday worry-free. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable with daily walks, feeding routines, administering basic medications, and providing extra snuggles for anxious pups. I have had years of experience, with having three labs currently to raising two litters of lab puppies. I have grown up with dogs and love being around them I am in school during the week Monday-Friday. Pet care fits best for me during the evenings or the weekends depending on the week of school. I follow your pet’s routine closely — from feeding schedules and walk times to favorite toys and cuddle spots. I make sure your pet feels secure in their own space, keep their environment tidy, and send regular photo updates so you know they’re happy and well cared for.
About: I have been someone that many families have relied on ever since I was around 11 years old. Through these years of experience, I have been able to take care of dogs of all shapes and sizes with all the support they need, such as walks, baths, etc. I am always versatile and understanding when it comes to pet sitting because I want to make sure the dog/owner can trust the pet sitter. Over the past two years, I have gained additional experience in a professional setting as a PetCare Specialist at Perfect Pet Resort. This required me to not only handle and care for multiple dogs or cats throughout the day but also to pass a behavioral dog class beforehand to gain more knowledge. I am currently available any day of the week to be an available pet sitter and am very flexible with what the pet sitter requires for their hours. I have a fenced in yard with two dogs currently. I have created a safe and knowledgeable environment for my pets to make sure they are always comfortable and happy. When it comes to visiting other families homes I will always make sure to know and understand the rules so I can follow them accordingly. With this I will then proceed to make sure the dog is taken care of in the best way possible as their family is away.

“Trina helped us check in on our cat, and responded promptly to my request. She’s professional, courteous, and maintained communication throughout the whole process. She gave our cat some treats, food, checked on her water, and most importantly she gave her some love 😻. My cat enjoyed Trina’s company and was PURRRing on the phone !🧡 Trina was kind enough to offer to check in on my backyard hens when I mentioned that I was little worried about them too. We appreciate all your help and the peace of mind you gave us while we’re away. 🙏”
About: Hey there! I’ve been caring for animals for over 25 years…or really, my whole life! From dogs and cats to birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, and even fish, I’ve shared my life with animals of all kinds. I currently live with four cats who have taught me even more about patience, play, and intuitive communication. I’ve also helped friends with pet care, walked dogs of all sizes, and provided loving attention to pets while their humans were away. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and I feel deeply connected to them. I believe in meeting each animal where they are, tuning into their energy, and ensuring they feel safe, seen, and nurtured. Whether it’s a playful walk, cozy check-in visit, or overnight care, I’m committed to showing up with love, attentiveness, and a calm, grounded presence. Your pet will be treated like one of my own! Pet care fits beautifully into my current schedule. I’m seeking flexible work that keeps me close to home so I can care for my four cats and continue pursuing my passion for baking. My days are open and adaptable, and I love spending time with animals. I’m currently available most days and times, and I genuinely enjoy being outside for walks or tending to pets’ unique needs. This work is a natural extension of my lifestyle. I treat all pets like family, tuning into their needs with care and calm energy. Whether in my home or yours, I create a peaceful, loving environment. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality, maintain clean spaces, and follow feeding or medication routines exactly. My four cats are well-loved and cared for, and I bring that same intention and presence to every animal I care for.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 11,336 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Academy Hill. 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 Academy Hill. On Rover:
- 84% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% 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.
