About: I’m a lifelong animal lover and trained vet tech with hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets, including cats, dogs, birds, and both saltwater and freshwater fish. As a mother of three and the proud owner of 5 cats and 2 dogs, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care. I bring patience, reliability, and a calm, compassionate approach to every visit. I specialize in drop-ins and overnight care in your home, helping pets stay comfortable, safe, and relaxed in their familiar environment. I’m also available for holiday pet care, so families can travel with peace of mind knowing their pets are being loved and cared for like my own. Caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I’m available in the mornings, evenings, weekends, and for overnight stays, which lets me give pets consistent attention and companionship. Whether it’s a walk to start the day or a cozy check‑in at night, I make pet care a natural part of my routine. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their own home. I follow their normal schedule, meals, walks, medication, playtime, and quiet time, so everything feels familiar and stress‑free for them. I’m attentive to safety, always checking doors, gates, and surroundings, and I keep their space clean and calm. When I stay overnight, I make sure they have steady companionship and a peaceful environment. I also send regular updates and photos so owners always feel connected and confident while they’re away.

About: Hi there! I’m a college freshman studying nursing, and while I can’t host pets in my dorm, I’d love to put my passion for caregiving and lifelong love for animals into looking after your pup. As a nursing major, I bring responsibility, patience, and strong attention to detail to every visit. Caring for others is what I’m best at — whether that’s people or pets. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, including an energetic Australian Shepherd mix and a sweet Wheaten Terrier–Poodle mix. Because of that, I’m comfortable with all energy levels, sizes, personalities, and quirks. Shy dogs, high‑energy pups, seniors, and everything in between — I meet them where they’re at. What I Offer 30‑Minute Dog Walks: A refreshing walk around your neighborhood or a nearby trail to give your pup exercise, stimulation, and a happy break in their day. 30‑Minute Drop‑Ins: Perfect for potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and plenty of cuddles. I make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own. Your pup will always receive safe, attentive, and loving care, and you’ll get reliable communication and updates every step of the way. I’d be honored to care for your dog and help make your life a little easier. As a full‑time college student, I prioritize my classes and coursework, but I have plenty of availability in between classes and during afternoons. I’m typically free on weekdays after 11 am, with additional openings throughout the day depending on my class schedule. I’m also available on some weekends for walks or drop‑ins. My routine is flexible, and I make sure pet care fits smoothly around my school commitments, so your pup always receives dependable attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort. I follow your instructions closely, keep environments clean, ensure fresh water, and maintain secure entryways. I approach every visit with the same responsibility and attention to detail I bring to my nursing studies, giving your pet calm, dependable care.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a deep love for caring for them. Over the years, I’ve helped take care of dogs, fish, and farm animals, which has given me a lot of hands on experience with daily routines like feeding, walking, cleaning, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I’ve also cared for many different dogs, each with their own personality, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with them and giving them attention, comfort and playing with them. I’m a student at CMU, so I’ll be gone during parts of the day for classes and occasionally work on weekends, but that also means I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets lots of attention, care, and love when I’m home. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved by sticking to their routine, giving them lots of attention, and creating a calm, clean space. I treat every pet like they’re my own!

About: Hello! My name is Jacob and I’ve been surrounded by animals of all kinds for my whole life, and have always loved their company. I will strive to provide the best possible care for your pets and treat them as if they were my own. I’m here for their needs, whether it’s to wear out a young active pup or take a casual stroll around the block letting your senior dog stop as they need to. I’ve always had a lot of flexibility in my schedule and have enjoyed pet sitting as a side job for many years. I’m currently working part time in the early mornings so I have tons of time during the day to help care for your pets. If you need me to stay with your pets I’m usually only gone for a 3.5 hour shift so they won’t be left alone for very long! I will have your pets safety and comfort always in mind and make sure they have what they need to stay happy until you return.

About: I’ve always had a pet of my own until early 2026 when my senior dog had passed, however I do have a history of working at a veterinary hospital. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level, so I take the time to learn what makes each pet feel safe and happy. I’m dependable, responsible, and attentive to details. My goal is not only to care for pets while their owners are away, but to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and treated like family. I’m currently working part-time and looking for the opportunity to still stay active and enjoy my free time. I have a very open schedule and I’m committed to following each owner’s instructions and making sure their pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while they are away. The safety and well-being of every pet in my care is my top priority. I believe trust is built through reliability, communication, and treating each pet with patience and respect. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure and maintain their normal routines. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions, pay attention to each pet’s individual needs, and keep owners updated so they can have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: Hello, my name is Lara and I am a pet enthusiast! I love spending as much time with dogs and cats as possible, and I'm so eager to meet new furry friends. I recently moved to the area from Michigan where I worked for a dog sitting company for 2 years, privately nannied for a few dogs, and fostered 12 different adult dogs and puppies through different rescues. I've lived with and cared for a variety of breeds and temperaments, and I'm always excited to expand my knowledge with a new breed :) I love to take pictures of your pet and update you with how your baby is doing while you're away. Let's set up a meet and greet to see if I am a good fit for your fur babies! Can’t wait to meet you :) I have a fairly flexible lunch hour and am typically around on weekends. I can take a midday lunch to drop in on your pet, or swing by at dinner time, whatever you prefer. I make sure to be present often if I am pet sitting so your dog won’t feel anxiety over you being away! I like to follow their routine so the can feel as normal as possible while you’re gone.

About: I have four dogs, and two cats. I treat all pets as if my own kids. I am good at potty training if needed, and special diets or any meds they need to take. I can take care of guinea pigs as well. I have owned them before. I will NOT watch a dog over 50-60 pds max. The only times I am away from home is usually for doctor appts. I am available for emergency situations as well. I know people don't think about that so its good to have a plan just incase the unfortunate happens, and u need me to go pick up the furbaby and bring them to my house until you are able to care for them. Know they will be safe and loved. I have a fenced backyard, as well as four dogs that would keep them company, and play with them while they are here. I can feed them separately as well. In your home I will make sure they are safe and can't get out and get lost. I have never lost a pet in my care.

About: I have taken care of pups and pets my whole life. I have always had more than one pet in the house at all times. I have taken care of neighbors, friends, loved ones pets. From lizards to chinchillas and all the dogs in between! I can walk, hike, bathe, feed, and cuddle pets whenever needed. I am pretty active and like to get out with the dogs everyday, whether that's for a hike or walk around the block, they need leg stretchers just like I do! It is second nature to take care of a pet. Their needs are always satisfied before mine. Happy pet, happy life! I am a working professional hoping to keep up my mental health while helping the local community members with their busy lives as well! I am available to take your pup on the weekends and likely take them on my adventure to the mountains too and during the work week, I can take them on walks after work or make sure they get some loving for overnight stays. I have a fenced yard. I am always sure to check for anything pets can get into. I am always hyper aware of pets to make sure they don't themselves in trouble.

He doesn't often greet unfamiliar people, but he was friendly from the start with Dawna. I will be recommending her, Rover to others as well as continuing to book Dawna in the future.”

About: I’m happy to stop in multiple times a day, go for walks. I’m familiar with local dog parks and trails, and have reliable transportation. Shoot me a message to plan care for your dog while you’re going out of town, or in town visiting the mountains! I have a very flexible schedule, making it easy for me to stop in multiple times a day, or go for long walks with your dog. At my home, I have a fenced balcony on a ground floor and a specific place to walk dogs. I like to go on local trails for longer walks. In clients homes, I like to stick to the routine and methods explained to keep a predictable schedule for the dog.

Thank you for your amazing care of Louisee again! I am sorry she was a scaredy cat and didn't come out to play with you but I appreciate your attempts and also the pics - at least she ate and pooped and didn't rip out my plant entirely! :) Really appreciate you, Lacie, and highly recommend you for any other pet lovers in GJ!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Appleton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Appleton is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $28 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 281 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Appleton. 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 Appleton. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
