“Kristie took great care of our cat - we came home to a friendly loving feline. Kristie even braved a snowstorm to take care of her and was kind enough to leave the light on for us as we were arriving home late. Details make all the difference. Highly recommend her”
“Karen has been an amazing sitter. My dog, Mia, does not usually get acclimated to new people in a short period of time. Karen has been able to gain her trust. I really do not enjoy leaving Mia, but my mind is at ease now that I know Karen is keeping an eye on her.”
“She made three visits a day to our house for our dog and cat. They loved her, and she did everything perfectly including giving our dog plenty of walks and giving her her medicine. We will definitely be asking her to come watch our pets again in the future!”
“Gretchen took care of my cat very well. She even provided photos every time she visited him. It made me so happy & not so worried thinking about him while I was away. Thank you again”
“We were relieved to find Agnes who we trusted with our two puppers for several visits during our wedding! She checked in and was great with sharing photos to let us know they were safe!”
“Jessenia did a great job and was great about updating us when she was checking in our dog. It was our first time using Rover and we had a great experience. Thank you Jessenia for making us feel so comfortable!”
“Excellent sitter! Came at last minute notice for us, as our original plan failed. She let us know of all issues and any she thought might be a problem, our cats really enjoyed her presence as well! And they have a sense of people, human and cat approved!”
“Cheyenne did great with my cat! She took care of him while was away from my vacation. At first, I was so worried leaving him because he sustained a skin condition ( a ringworm like symptoms) & it’s not getting any better. But Cheyenne did not hesitate and willing to do the extra work. She updates me daily about my cat & took some pictures so that I can see his progress. She really gives me peace of mind! When I came home a week after, my cat’s wound is looking much better. Thanks Cheyenne for everything! You went above and beyond!”
“We have rebooked Hannah several times to watch our cat, Rocco. She always does a great job! Thorough report and pictures provided at the end of her visit. She’s a great choice for a pet sitter!”
“Ray was an incredible help while I was on vacation. She went out of her way to find out what my cat Yoda liked doing for fun and spent time playing with him every day. She also sent me a ton of adorable pictures and videos of Yoda. It was very clear that Yoda felt very comfortable with her. I will definitely continue using her for my petsitting needs!”
“Christina M. is an experienced long time pet owner who loves her job. My Beagle/ Jack Russel Terrier adores her when she walks him. She is always on time and contacts me with any concerns or questions. If your looking for a responsibile caring pet person I highly recommend booking Christina M.”
“We chose Brittney being that she is local, and also had some great reviews! I have no problem leaving another 5 star review. From our first “meet and greet” Brittney has been awesome! Very easy to work with, easy going and accommodating. Has a great work ethic and takes great care of our pup Leia, (Princess) from feeding, to walking and just spending time with her socializing.”
“Liz is an amazing person. Very polite and easy going. She is truly amazing with my puppy, and I can tell how much passion she has towards animals. I'm so grateful for meeting her. I would highly recommend her for any needs you might have in assistance with any of your loved ones!!!”
“Could not be happier from working with Devyn! Our pups loved her, she followed all of our instructions perfectly, and loved the pictures and updates she sent during each visit. Will book with her again!”
“Great service. He was prompt and extremely helpful. Did extra little tasks like bringing in the trash and watering plants … appreciated that a lot. Always sent pictures of our doggies.. The dogs loved him. Would highly recommend.”
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I have for animals. I treat every pet like family and understand that each one has their own personality, routine, and comfort needs. I’m dependable, attentive, and focused on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved — whether it’s a long walk, cuddle time, playtime, or simply keeping their routine consistent while you’re away. My current routine gives me the flexibility and availability to provide dependable, attentive care for pets throughout the day. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, which makes dog walking and pet care a natural fit for me. I’m able to dedicate quality time to each pet, maintain consistent schedules, and make sure they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. I care for pets with patience, consistency, and lots of affection, whether they’re in my home or theirs. I make sure they stay on their normal routine with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention so they feel comfortable and secure. I keep a clean, safe environment, pay close attention to their behavior and needs, and treat every pet like they’re part of the family. Communication with owners is also important to me, so I provide updates and photos for peace of mind.
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and grew up actively involved in their daily care, from feeding and walking to helping with training and routines. This lifelong experience has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, body language, and individual needs. In addition to caring for my own dog, I’ve also helped care for dogs of various sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m comfortable with energetic pups, as well as dogs who need a calmer, more patient approach. I prioritize safety, consistency, and communication, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so you can feel confident your dog is in good hands. Pet care is already built into my daily routine since I’m home throughout the day and care for my own dog. I maintain a consistent schedule with outings every 4 hours, along with regular feeding, walks, and playtime. Because I’m home most of the day, dogs receive plenty of attention and are rarely left alone for long periods. I’m also flexible and can adjust routines to meet each dog’s specific needs, whether that’s more frequent breaks, extra exercise, or a slower pace. I live in an apartment complex with two dog parks and plenty of space for walks. I treat every dog like my own and take the time to quickly learn their routine and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for.

We had another great time away knowing that our little Pomeranian was in good hands with Kristie. She gave consistent updates while we were gone and made sure that she was taken care of. She also took care of a few extra things like bringing in the mail and taking out our trash bins while we were gone. We recommend her for your next sitting needs!
Thank you Emily for taking such great care of Nova! Being the first time I needed someone to check in on him I was for sure nervous, but Emily was amazing and helped me feel very at ease. I loved the pictures she sent me to keep me updated. And she even helped clean a mess Nova had left in my kitchen. I got to enjoy the time away with my daughter knowing he was in good care. I will definitely use her services again, amd recommend her to others as well!!! Super super sweet girl.
Liz is absolutely phenomenal. I usually have anxiety about leaving my cats to take any trips, but Liz absolutely put my mind at ease the whole weekend we were away. The wonderful photos and communication were so appreciated and made me feel better about being away from my fur kids. I can tell they loved her because I came home and everyone is calm and happy and I think they really enjoyed their own little vacation! We will definitely be asking Liz to take care of them again soon! Thanks so much Liz! You’re the best!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Alpha on Rover is $27.08 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 2,861 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Alpha. 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 Alpha 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 Alpha. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% 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.
