Katelyn helped me tremendously when my initial sitter plans feel through. Despite the short turn around, she took the time for a meet & greet, and my dogs really took a liking to her! She sent updates for each visit, letting me know how they were doing. Would absolutely recommend!

This includes experience with senior dogs and medications I am currently in nursing school and have a flexible schedule! Your pup can get as much play time and outside time as they need! I’m also available for a regular walk to get your baby out of the house and a little fresh air during the work day or on the weekend when you have a busy schedule. I’d love to hang out with your pet!! I’m only in school for half days so I’m free the rest of the day to care for pets!! Im also only in school 4 days a week so my other days are free for studying and fully flexible I have a fully fenced in yard in my own home for boarding and I’m very active so I’ll be ready to give your furbabies a good walk!

Abby did daily check ins for our cat and took very nice care of him! She communicated updates and sent photos every day. He is also typically pretty shy but seemed to warm up to her quickly. I’m happy he was in such good hands with her and we will absolutely be reaching out to her for care in the future! Thank you again Abby!!

Return user ….Jake is the best!! Attention to detail and patience is his specialty. One cat is really shy but he always gets her to come around. Jake even provided details and pics of a water leak (as well as the cats).

About: I’ve worked in a dog daycare/boarding facility for two years, & I’ve worked in a kennel for one year. I’ve cared for a range of dog ages, from puppies to senior dogs. The knowledge I’ve gained from my past experience has helped me to learn how to care for dogs, feeding tricks, training techniques, how to stop minor issues a dog may experience, and overall how to love and care for each dog because everyone is different! What may work for one dog won’t work for another and that’s okay! I’ve always treated any dog under my care with the same love & nurturing I give to my old dog. I work from home on Mondays and Tuesdays and don’t work on weekends! This gives me the time to tend to a dog whether they need to be played with, need potty breaks or a walk! I have the flexibility to be available starting at anytime & can either drop a dog off, have a dog picked up starting at 7pm. I would treat a clients dog like they are my own. Making sure the dog is feed, played with & given attention. My own dog goes on 2-3 walks per day, fed twice a day & given treats, the same treatment would be provided to a clients dog, and I can always adjust to what the client would like me to do!

Nikki was a life saver! I had a family emergency which required a next day booking and she made herself available. Even my shy girl Annie warmed up to her. Nikki was very amenable to several changes in schedule with no problems. She will be the first we call the next time a sitter is needed and I know Annie and Blu look forward to seeing her again!

I could tell right away that Dana was dependable, reliable and can be counted on. As someone who worries a lot about leaving my two cats, that provided me the peace of mind that I needed to enjoy my vacation week. I was so happy to find that she also truly is kind, caring, and loves animals, and that my shy cats warmed up to her immediately! I would absolutely recommend Dana.

My dog has a lot of separation anxiety. Jessica popped in to take her for a walk while I was at work. Jessica was great with communication and sent me a picture while on their walk. Jessica was thorough, and asked great questions prior to meeting my dog. She gave me peace of mind while I was at work. I would recommend Jessica and will be using her again! 😊

About: I don’t have much experience with dogs if I’m being honest. The only experience I had with a dog was with a baby pitbull and that was for about a year. That being said, despite my lack of experience I am willing to learn. My love for animals in general is why I am open to learning. I will still provide the same love, care and affection for a dog as I would a cat. My daily and weekly routine is very open for pet care. I am currently on maternity leave so I have lots of availability throughout my days. I treat them like their family and not strangers or “just for the money type of thing”. If the client has special requests as far as how they would want their pet taken care of, I would follow those requests and update the clients along the way.

Dezerae was absolutely wonderful. It was my first time away from my Kitty, Olive and was a little skiddish about having a sitter watch her. It couldn't have worked out better. Dezerae came and met Olive beforehand, and we went over everything in preparation for my departure. She was punctual and communicated with me daily about Olive and how things were going. Olive seemed to really love her. I also received daily pictures and videos from Dezerae that were very comforting to see. I would certainly recommend her to pet sit and if I need to travel in the future, she'll be the first one I look for. Thank you, Dezerae!!

Jake is an outstanding pet sitter who consistently goes above and beyond. During his drop-in visits for my cats, he showed genuine care and concern when he couldn’t locate my shy kitty, patiently trying several approaches to make sure everything was okay. He was always courteous, professional, and highly communicative, providing thoughtful updates during each visit. I had complete peace of mind knowing my cats were in such capable hands. I highly recommend Jake and will continue to book him! — A Very Pleased Repeat Customer

Cara took great care of our fluff ball while away on vacation. Cara’s communication is great. She does a great job providing socialization for our cat, as well as making sure her other basic needs are met. We feel very lucky to have connected with somebody as trustworthy as Cara is, who also clearly loves animals and is a safe person to have around our cat!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Avalon on Rover is $18.19 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 2,711 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avalon. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Avalon stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Avalon. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 92% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
