Gwendolyn was great! We have 2 cats, and we definitely care a lot about them (as most pet people do probably), and this was the first time leaving them for a full week so we were a little worried to say the least. Gwendolyn showed up a few days prior to meet the cats and we showed her all the things we needed her to check. The cats came right up to her and seemed to love her from the start! We are also in the process of selling our home, so a few times we had inspectors and appraisers come through and she even came at different times and even short notice to check on them! She clearly showed love & care for our pets and we definitely recommend her for any of your pets needs. She will clearly love them like her own! Highly recommended.

About: I’m a pre-vet student with extensive hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and currently have two dogs at home, including one that was a rescue! In addition to personal experience, I also have experience working with animals in veterinary settings, both hands-on and behind the scenes. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering medications, senior pet care, puppies/kittens, and monitoring pets for signs of stress or illness. I also have knowledge of basic pet first aid and am comfortable handling post-surgery and recovery care when given instructions. I genuinely love working with animals and always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat and love all animals like my own and will accommodate to care for each pet’s specific needs and personality! I’m a college student home for the summer with a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I work part-time and also spend time each week shadowing in veterinary clinics to continue gaining hands-on experience in animal care and veterinary medicine. Even with those commitments, I carefully schedule pet sitting around them so I can provide pets with the time, attention, and care they deserve through walks, drop-in visits, and even overnight stays. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away, so I always do my best to maintain their normal routine in their home environment. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with crates, medications, specific feeding schedules, walks, overnight care, and post-surgery/recovery care. As a pre-vet student who regularly shadows in veterinary clinics, I’m attentive, responsible, and I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being!

About: I have taken care of pets of my own and of friends for the last 5 years. I do bathing, nail trimming, walking, and have a lot of patience with animals with anxiety. Morning, afternoon, evening and nights. We have 3 cats, a dog, a ferret, and a bunny. We love our pets like family and can't wait to love yours too. All of our animals are trained to love and respect all other animals. Our dog is a gentle and loving German shepherd/ husk mix and our cats don't hiss or yowl at other cats or dogs.

About: I worked as a veterinary technician for 25 years. I worked with dogs, cats, birds and other small animals. I also spent my whole career working as a wildlife rehabber. I have canine and avian training and behavior experience. I have lots of experience in pet/ house sitting and can provide recommendations and references if needed. I will care for you pets as if they are my own. If you need someone to care for your horses, goats, chickens, or other farm critters I have plenty of experience. I am currently a at home baker. I sell macarons at the local farmers market on Saturday mornings. I can adjust my schedule as need. I don't normally board at my home but will make exceptions for some pets. I have my own pets to consider when making this decision.

Danielle did a wonderful job. I knew she would have her hands full with 9 adult cats and 8 kittens. She provided daily updates and even asked about where to find extra litter and all because she wanted to keep up with the litter boxes even though we asked her to just scoop and tidy them up.

About: I am a retired Vet Tech of 35 years. I worked with companion animals, farm animals and occasionally birds, pocket pets and exotics. I now work remotely from home and want to continue caring for and enjoying all animals. I'm here to snuggle and care for your fur-babies when you can't be there. I'm available for dog walking on the weekends or weekdays evening and for daily drop-in visits for cats and caged pets any day of the week! Since I work from home, fitting the care of your pets into my schedule, is very doable. I have 1 cat and 1 dog (oh, and a husband, lol)! Dog waking is limited to evenings during the week and anytime on the weekend. Daily drop-in visits for cats and caged pets can be done any day of the week. I will consider limited boarding in my home on a case by case basis that we can discuss. I have a large yard, but not fenced in. My dog is a house dog and gets walked on a leash for potty breaks. We also have a dog trolley line to use for when we want to hang outside.

About: I am a lifetime dog owner, I currently have two dogs. Rusty is a Red heeler that came from a rescue, Gunner is a lab mix that was also a rescue. I have a cat named freya who was rescued from a horrible situation, I have 3 bunnies that are 4 years old. I am in the process of becoming a veterinarian. I was a vet tech for 10 months. My passion is help any animal in need. I have worked with all breeds with different health issues. I’m very patient with skittish, afraid or nervous pets. I have did some dog training on and off over the years. I have walked several dogs in my community. I have also house sat/pet sat while families have went on vacation. I love all animals as if they were my own. I donate every month to local shelters to help any fur baby in need. I would love to give your fur baby all the attention, play time in the world. My pets come first before anything. As my fur babies get fed once I wake up, and again a hour before bed. They get let out about 4-5 times a day. They have plenty of play time throughout the day. I have open availability to take care of your fur babies. I do not have a fenced in yard. I walk my dogs in the yard or at the park. When it’s play time there able to be off the leash and run around the back yard. I have some clients that have fenced in backyards and, some where the dogs need to be walked.

About: I have loved animals from the minute I opened my eyes. I grew up with the responsibility of caring for my critters (goats, horse, donkeys, dogs, cats) and now have two cats and dogs of my own! Within the last five years I have happily assisted friends and acquaintances with their furry friends as well. I am happy to meet y’all! It’s part of my daily routine to feed, water, and hangout with my fur babies. At this point it is second nature because I’ve done it for so long (my whole life). I will love on and play with the pet to their comfort level, am comfortable giving medication, and will send daily updates/photos! I do not house sit at my own home due to my critters

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve been blessed to love and care for pups of all ages — from energetic puppies who need patience and structure, to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra gentleness and attention. Growing up around dogs taught me more than just the basics of feeding and walking. It taught me how to read their body language, understand their different personalities, and recognize when they need comfort, space, playtime, or reassurance. Every dog is different, and I truly respect that. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. They’re family. My goal is always to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, play sessions, sticking closely to their routine, or just quiet cuddles on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your dog won’t just be watched — they’ll be cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine love. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I’m home the majority of the time, which allows me to be fully present and flexible for your fur babies. My schedule is very open, so I’m available most days and times to provide attentive, loving care. Because I’m not juggling a full-time job outside of the home, your pet won’t be left alone and will receive consistent supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I truly enjoy being home and caring for animals, so pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to give each dog the time, patience, and attention they deserve. 🐶💛 When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walk times, medications, and bedtime habits — because I know consistency helps reduce stress. Pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, and rest. Since I stay home, they’re rarely left alone and always have someone nearby to make them feel safe and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I make sure feeding instructions, walk schedules, medications, and any special care needs are followed exactly as requested. I keep things tidy, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. My goal in either setting is the same — to treat your fur baby like family and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

I am so pleased with Cherita’s care visits with Chloe. I was so worried because it’s been such a long time since Chloe was alone for more than a few hours. I liked getting updates and photos. I have already shared my experience and sent them the Rover contact info. Thank you Cherita!

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Afton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 406 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Afton. 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 Afton 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 Afton. On Rover:

  • 79% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
