“Dani did an amazing job checking in on my Kitty while I was out of town. I highly recommend her and would trust her with my cat anytime! She gives great, detailed updates and is great with communication.”
“Thank you, Allie, for taking wonderful care of my kitties over Christmas break! So great to be able to leave town and know my pets and my home are in good hands. Appreciate you so much!!”
“We had an excellent experience with Erica! She was reliable, attentive, and clearly genuinely cared about our cats. We received thoughtful updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our cats were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when we returned. We will absolutely book again with Erica and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter.”
“Anne is great! We had to be away for a work thing and needed someone to feed and play with our dogs on short notice. After meeting Anne we felt comfortable and not at all anxious. Hope she's available for a need in the future.”
“Katelyn has been amazing with my two little dogs! She has been patient as my shy and anxious girl, Cora, is getting to know her. My pup, Ruger, loved her from the first meeting. She is great with communication and very dependable. I'm so happy to have found her!”
About: I have taken care of and owned dogs and cats my whole life. I walk, feed, board, and care for my animals or when anyone else (family, friends, etc) need help. I currently own two dogs myself and have a large fenced yard for them. I am available for drop ins and walking during the week due to my work from home schedule. It does vary by week but I'll make sure to keep it updated. I can do drop ins or walk your pup from your home. I am comfortable with all size of dogs. I currently own two dogs, no crated, and a large yard
“Rachel is wonderful with our kitty. She is communicative and considerate. She tries to play with Stormy, gives her treats, feeds her, and cleans up after her, and is a great relief that we have her to pet sit when we go out of town. I’d highly suggest her.”
“Sierra is so great with our pets! She leaves us at ease and able to enjoy vacations while we’re away knowing they are taken care of. We’ll definitely be using her again!”
About: Hi, I’m Quin! I would love to help train you and your pup, or take your pup out for some exercise! I have experience working with a wide variety of dogs - puppies, senior dogs, shelter dogs, working line K9’s, livestock guardian dogs, purse dogs, etc. I have a rotating work schedule depending on the week, please check my availability. Feel free to message and ask for any specific time and date! I carry water and a pet first aid kit with me on every outing. My vehicle is also equipped with a doggie seatbelt for any transportation to/from parks or other locations.
About: I’ve never understood why chihuahuas loved me so much until I realized how much people don’t respect the boundaries of such small creatures. So much so, they feel the need to be aggressive and defend themselves! I know a good amount about dogs and dogs breeds, how different breeds have different needs and will strive to meet the needs of your fur-baby! I am a full-time Master’s student, but my classes are on weekends only. I have many things to read so overnights would likely be spent playing with your fur-baby before I get some reading done for my degree. To make sure you and your fur-baby feel safe with me in your home, I will make sure to talk through routines you may have with your pet(s). I know how hard it is to be away from your pet, so I will make sure to send photos and videos as requested. I want to make sure I know how to properly care for your pets, so I may have a couple extra questions to figure out how I may support you and your pet.
“Krystal was a great sitter. Our babies loved her visits even our feral cat Spook interacted with her. Getting the pictures every day help us put a concern to rest. we look forward to the next time we need to go out of town when Krystal can visit again.”
“Aurora is so kind and a friend to animals. She quickly responded to me and was available and attentive to my shih tzu, who looks super duper happy in the photos I received!! The photos were also of a variety I hadn’t seen before; usually I’ve received photos of Gizmo doing the same thing. Aurora took the time to take pictures of Gizmo walking, belly rubs, even a selfie. Awesome!!! I’m so thankful for the time, energy, and effort that Aurora spent with Gizmo and cannot wait to book again :) thank you!!”
About: Hi I'm Amy! I love animals! I grew up with the sweetest family dog and had so much fun raising him and training him to do some fun basic tricks like sit, lay down, spin, shake, roll over, bang! I also fostered kittens and cats during college, and even taught the cats to do tricks like high five and spin! I am currently working part time as an SLPA and would love to care for your pets on my days off from the clinic because it brings me so much joy to be around them. I can follow specific directions and adapt to your fur-baby’s needs. All pets are unique, so I am more than happy to accommodate anything necessary for your pet’s specific needs.
“Emma did amazing with our saint bernard. She shared the nicest updates and photos and is just a kind human. I 100% recommend her and we will be asking her to watch our crew again. Knowing that our pup is well-cared for helped us enjoy our event THANK YOU!”
“Deborah is professional, reliable, and friendly! She cared for my two cats and they acted like I was never away -- always a good sign! Will definitely book with her again.”
“It was a pleasure working with Kelsey while I was gone visiting family. She showed up at the time scheduled, gave my rabbits attention, cleaned up their area often, and communicated consistently. She even brought them lettuce and crafted a little hay roll in a paper towel cardboard for them to play with. I could tell my rabbits were happy and healthy. I would recommend Kelsey and plan to reach out to her again in the future!”
About: We take time to get to know each client and organize our space and time around your pet's unique needs. We are not a large boarding facility and we only accept a very small number of pets at a time. As a result, we're able to follow the pace, routine and needs of each dog and cat in our care, helping to keep anxiety low while ensuring they receive enrichment, proper exercise and plenty of snuggles. Your pet will be provided care and socialization without becoming overwhelmed or lost in the pack! I'm currently a stay at home mom to human and fur babies and married to a firefighter who is also home frequently. Aside from the occasional errand, your pet will have constant companionship, interaction, walks, potty breaks and snuggles. Most pets are never alone for the duration of their stay. Being away from home can be hard for pets! Whether boarding overnight for a few days or just a work day away, dogs and cats stay as close to their home routine as possible while in my care. They'll receive plenty of play and stimulation to prevent boredom and have unlimited access to a fully fenced yard and frequent walks to be well exercised. If they just need someone to stop in, they'll receive care and snuggles and you'll have the reassurance that that they're being well taken care of and have everything they need while you're away from them. Your fur baby will be treated like one of the family when they are in my care!
“Jen watched my 2 doggies. She did a great job! My doggies are older and need a little extra TLC. One is deaf and the other one has extreme anxiety. Jen is patient with them. She takes her time to make the doggies feel comfortable. Jen also takes care of the pet parent. She seems videos and pictures during the stay so you can see what your pups are up to. The pictures are really adorable. I will definitely book again.”

Kristen is a great, amazing all around human being and catsitter extraordinaire for my furbabies. The only reason I could take a trip internationally without worry is because I know they were in good and capable hands. From photos to constant communication, I'm so thankful for Kristen!!
Katelyn has been amazing with my two little dogs! She has been patient as my shy and anxious girl, Cora, is getting to know her. My pup, Ruger, loved her from the first meeting. She is great with communication and very dependable. I'm so happy to have found her!
Russell was absolutely wonderful with our girl, Moose! From the beginning, we felt completely comfortable leaving her in his care. He was kind, attentive, dependable, and clearly has a love for dogs. Russell took Moose on walks and sent us photos and updates while we were away, which we really appreciated. Seeing her happy and comfortable gave us peace of mind and allowed us to enjoy our time away without worrying. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for Moose! We would absolutely trust Russell with her again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their dog like their own.
Ross was an absolute Godsend!! He took such good care of my kitties, and they warmed up to him rather quickly, even my shy girl Rosie. He kept in touch promptly and made sure to leave detailed notes after each visit. He was extremely accommodating as well, as maintenance had to change my locks while I was away and I also had a package delivered early... I informed him of all of this and he graciously changed my keys on my key ring and made sure my package made it inside safely. He went above and beyond the call of duty and I felt my kitties were in great hands. I would 100% book with him again!
I booked Amber to watch my kitties over the Christmas holiday. I came home to my kitties healthy, and thus grateful for their care. We did have some communication issues (her phone didn’t have service/not on and a missed drop in which I had to reach out to her first (hours later) to understand what was going on). I do want to say that she did remedy the issue in the end. My only critique is that I would have wanted her to find a way to communicate with me first when things arise that affect my pets feeding schedule so I could find an alternative solution, that way she could focus on any personal emergencies that pop up. Overall Amber is nice and friendly and I know with more pet-sitting experience she will be a well-sought after Rover sitter.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Artondale is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $21 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 November 2026, there are 10,008 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Artondale. 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 Artondale. On Rover:
- 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 91% 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.
