I’m comfortable with everything from energetic dogs to pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. I also have experience with feeding, walking, basic grooming, administering medications, and recognizing when something just doesn’t seem right. I treat every pet like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I’m currently a college student with classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet care throughout the rest of the week. I’m available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, and other pet care needs. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible.

“I am so grateful to Cody Lynn for caring for my two Chihuahuas and providing great support! Right from our first meeting I knew Cody is a lover of fur babies and that my girls would be in great hands! Cody asked great questions about personality, specific care requirements, their needs as older pups, and the best way to love them well. Her updates were timely and detailed, the pics she shared gave me such assurance knowing my girls were in good hands and well cared for - thank you Cody Lynn!!!❤️”

I love taking care of your needs as a pet owner and ensuring you feel safe and comfortable leaving your baby in my hands! I am a full time college student involved in some extracurriculars needing that extra money to pay for school, I am pretty flexible and would love to workout a schedule with you :) I am a big animal lover and will only treat your babies with the same love and care as you!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was very young. Growing up my mother and I volunteered for dog rescue services. Doing that I cared for dogs big and small, old and young!! My family and friends often have me take care of their pets while they are away, so I’ve had plenty of experience! I currently go to school, so when school is in session there will be limited hours I can pet sit, however after school and on weekends, or summer I am free often! For the service of checking in on your dog at home, I can feed, water, play, and crate your pets whenever needed. I don’t mind doing anything that will help take the best care of your pet!

I’m available for either full-time or part-time depending on the schedule of the owner. I would make sure the animal is my top priority. I care for them to the best of my ability. I prefer to go to the clients home due to me living in an apartment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Astin is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $21 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 527 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Astin. 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 Astin. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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.
