“Kaitlyn is great! At our meet and greet, she did great work building trust with our shy young dog and turned her into a fan by the end of the visit (and she was instant besties with our senior dog). Kaitlyn’s taken care of them two times and the dogs are clearly both having a great time with her already. She gives great updates with pictures and has been so easy to communicate with. I highly recommend working with Kaitlyn!”
“Colleen has been great with Kira for multiple visits. Kira has significant medical issues right now and Colleen has worked well around those issues. She is very easy to communicate with and gives good feedback from the visit.”
“Jorden was amazing with our large lad for this drop in! This was our first time leaving Whiskey for an extended time and I think Jorden was the perfect person to check in on him. Will definitely be rebooking in the future!”
“Kat was great with Kira on sort of short notice. She also had to deal with the extreme summer heat as well as unexpected people in the backyard working on the pool. Kira had a great time and was well taken care of.”
“Heather was awesome! Super responsive and sent lots of messages and updates. I have a senior cat who takes medicine, she handled all of that with no issues and left the house in top shape with a happy kitty 😻”
“I've had such anxiety thinking about letting a stranger come into my home and care for my puppy - thank God a friend recommended Sam. They came for a meet and greet, and listened attentively to what I was looking for regarding Al's care. I felt comfortable enough to book a drop in afterwards and, at this point, have had Sam come by a handful of times. They're great with Al, and with my adult dog who's sometimes home when I ask them to stop by. They've always be able to accommodate my requests, but the most important thing is that my boys are comfortable with them! They even go the extra mile helping to bring in my packages! They always update and send the cutest pics with the Rover card that let me relax knowing that my son is cared for. Highly recommend Sam if you need someone reliable!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and pets for over 10 years. Whether it’s a long walk, overnight stay, or drop-in visit, I treat every pup like they’re part of my own family. I have experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. Happy to schedule a meet & greet to see if it’s a good fit! I currently work as a truck driver on weekdays returning by 4 pm at the latest . And availability is free all weekends. I make it a priority for the dogs to be fed, walked and well taken care of throughout the day I have a fenced in yard at the end of a dead end street in a quiet neighborhood, giving your dog the space and peace they need to have a great time
About: I’ve been working with dogs since I was 7 years old at my grandmothers dog grooming salon. I’ve always loved both dogs and cats, and I’ve always felt a connection to them. I have a 12 year old dog and just recently lost my 18 year old cat. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine very easily. On days that I’m working I have plenty of time to walk my dog and feed her in the morning, and once I get out of work i have just enough time to do a walk and feed her! On my days off I tend to spend as much time with my pets as possible, wether is playing, walking, or cuddling! I care for my pets at home by spending quality time with them. My dog loves walks, playing with toys, doing tricks for treats, and cuddling. My cat enjoys lounging with me some days, but he isn’t very playful.
About: Hello! My name is Renee and I am a lifelong pet mom and current mom/trainer to an almost 2 year old Alaskan Husky! I understand that for as much work our four legged friends are often the most adored members of the family! I know how important it is keep your dog happy, healthy, and fufilled! I will treat your buddies as my own. I work a varied work schedule so pet care is something I purposely build to be as simple as possible. This leaves all the time for play and training after my shift and on my weekends off! As i nurse i employ the principle of the parent and patient know themselves best. This is no different caring for your pets. I will seek your guidance on what makes your pet comfortable and happy. After keeping them safe, that is my number one concern. Working together we can make sure your life with your best friends is as comfortable as possible for everyone!
“Amanda was amazing with our two cats! She dropped in to check on them, feed them, clean the box, and give one of our cats medicine. She always stayed to play with them and she went above and beyond to clean up after them. They loved having her around!”
About: I've had dogs in my life since I was a child, and for the past 7 years, I’ve been independently caring for them. From big to small breeds, I’ve handled a variety of dogs with different personalities and needs. I’ve provided drop-ins for bathroom breaks, feeding (including dogs with allergies or specific requirements), and I’m always excited to take dogs for walks and hikes. I’m experienced with both skittish pups and energetic jumpers—jumping doesn’t bother me, and I know how to manage it safely. I’ve also cared for dogs with basic health needs like administering pills or shots. Although I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I truly miss the companionship and bond that comes with spending time with a furry friend. I currently work 5 days in office. While I may not be able to stop in during the day, I have availability before and after work. I work between the hours of 8am-5pm, but I can be flexible based on your and your puppy’s need! I believe in the importance of meeting both the family and the dogs prior to sitting. This helps establish trust and ensures a smooth transition for both the pet and the family. I understand that it can be stressful for a dog to have a stranger in their home, so I like to take the time beforehand and allow the dog to become familiar with me.

“Sarah-Jane could not be a better pet sitter! Our cat, Louis, absolutely adores her, as do we. She is thorough, attentive, and communicative. She has a clear love for animals and it shines through in her work. She goes above and beyond to take care of our special guy and to keep us updated every step of the way. We have booked with her many times and will continue to do so whenever possible - we cannot recommend her highly enough!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I grew up with dogs, and these days I'm often the person friends and family call when they need someone to look after their pets. I've spent plenty of time walking dogs, feeding them, playing with them, and making sure they're well cared for while their owners are away. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes, including larger, high-energy breeds. I enjoy getting to know each animal's personality and building trust with them. I've even trained my own cats to do tricks and respond to commands using positive reinforcement. Taking care of animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I take the responsibility seriously because I know how much people's pets mean to them. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, which gives me the flexibility to provide walks, drop-in visits, and pet care throughout the day. Outside of work, taking care of animals has always been a regular part of my life, whether that's spending time with my own pets or helping friends and family with theirs. Because I work a consistent schedule and plan my time carefully, I can be reliable and punctual when it comes to pet care. I enjoy getting outside for walks and spending time with animals, so it's something I genuinely look forward to rather than trying to squeeze into a busy schedule. I try to keep things as close to the pet's normal routine as possible. When I'm caring for a pet in their home, I follow the owner's instructions and make sure they're getting everything they need, whether that's walks, meals, playtime, medications, or just some company while their owner is away. I pay attention to each animal's personality and body language and adjust my approach accordingly. Some pets want lots of attention and activity, while others are happier with a quieter approach and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with both. Safety is always important to me. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure, and I keep an eye out for anything that seems out of the ordinary. My goal is to make sure pets are comfortable, well cared for, and as stress-free as possible while their owners are away. I make sure that I'm always available, and communication is a huge priority for me
“Roxanne came and checked in on my cat everyday for 2 weeks. I got pictures and videos and felt so happy knowing my baby was being well taken care of. Usually my cat has separation anxiety but when I came back she seemed so happy and healthy!”

Kaitlyn is so great with our dogs! You can tell from the photos that the dogs are both thrilled to be hanging out with her! She does an awesome job tiring out our young dog with fetch in the yard and giving our senior dog lots of loving and attention, too. Kaitlyn is so reliable and communicative - I highly recommend booking her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Ashby is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $25 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 2,265 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ashby. 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 Ashby. On Rover:
- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
