About: My wife and I had a dog for 13 years and enjoyed taking her hiking and swimming throughout her active years and snuggling on the couch when she became a senior. I'm familiar with the whole life cycle of dog care. From helping puppies get all the wiggles out to carrying seniors whose legs are arthritic and no longer at their best. Now that our girl, Nala has passed away, we are enjoying connecting with others' pets. I have an unconventional schedule for work and am available to let your dog out from 9 am until noon on Monday, Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday. Wednesdays and Thursdays are my days off and I'm free to hang with your pup any time! I'm very committed to pet safety and will want to understand all situations in which your dog may become reactive so that we avoid putting your pet in a situation that will make him or her uncomfortable. I also have a tracker that I like to put on all dogs in my care just in case they get spooked or something unexpected happens while we are together.

About: I stand out because I genuinely love animals, I have four pets of my own that I absolutely love and care for. Since having my first puppy I have adored teaching them new skills and tricks, I hate to take the credit lol, but all the skills my dogs have now i’ve taught them myself. commitment to personalized care and genuine love for animals ensure that your pet will feel comfortable and happy under my watch. Your dog's well-being is my top priority! :) I’ve grown up around pets and have always had a genuine love for caring for them! between having 3 dogs and a rabbit of my own, and helping out by pet sitting and walking dogs for people, animal care comes completely natural to me. I’m comfortable with all kinds of routines and personalities, and whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, or just some company, i’ll treat them like my own. I care for pets by ensuring they have fresh food and water, regular walks or playtime, and lots of love. I follow any specific routines from the owner to make sure their pet feels comfortable and well cared for.

“Last month I found out that my previous dog walker moved out of town, I ran across Emma's profile and noticed she had many good reviews. We met for a meet and greet and my husband and I both felt comfortable having her care for our dog. We scheduled a weekend trip and we had no issues. I booked her again for a week long of drop in visits and she went above and beyond to make sure our dog was well taken care of. I would definetely recommend Emma to care for your pups. Thanks again for everything <3”

“From the moment Marley met our two cats for the first time I knew I could rest easy on our long trip away. My cat was just coming off a bad reaction to sedation and has hyperasthesia, and she handled his meds and a setback in symptoms effortlessly and with care. She kept us thoroughly updated daily, followed all the instructions and notes I left! and made sure everything was clean on her last day. Most importantly Marley was a caring, loving presence and caregiver for our kitties every day, and was a very kind, compassionate person in all our interactions.”

I couldn't ask for a more ideal kitty- sitter than Aidan. He was very reliable & spent extra time when needed. He was a great communicator & very helpful when i was concerned my kitty might be unwell. She is a real scaredy cat, but he was able to find & befriend her easily - that can be quite a challenge! I would hope that Aidan will watch her again!

Stacie was great and I’d absolutely book with her again. She was flexible, communicative, and clearly took great care of my cats while I was away. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled, kept me updated, and gave me real peace of mind during my trip. It was obvious from the updates and from how my cats acted afterward that they were comfortable with her and well cared for. I really appreciated her attention to detail and the care she put into everything. Highly recommend.

Ryder seemed to take to Kayla fast, usually he runs and hides. I was surprised when Kayla sent me a picture of her petting him and brushing him. I was so happy to see that! Kayla didn't make it to the last visit because of a family emergency, but I actually got home earlier than I expected. So he didn't have to wait to long to get his breakfast. I would definitely use Kayla again and would recommend her to others.

Kayla was an incredible sitter for my bunny! I have never felt more at peace when away from home. She always sent photos of Oliver as well as his food & water so that we knew he was all taken care of. I could tell that Oliver felt super comfortable with her which was amazing! We will definitely book with Kayla full time for any future dates.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Arnold

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Arnold is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $32 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 October 2026, there are 12,124 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Arnold. 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 .

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 , 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 Arnold. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
