Paige has watched Izzie overnight several times and done a drop-in visit too. Izzie is always happy to see her, and we can tell she doesn’t miss us when Paige is around!

My job calls me in from time to time with little time to plan for a sitter. She is available to me even on very little notice. My dog is smiling in all the picture updates which makes me feel so good!

About: I grew up with dogs. I had a Great Dane that lived to be 12. I currently have a mini bernedoodle that is almost 5 years old. I also have a bunny. I currently work full-time and am available on Saturday and Sunday for boarding and dog walking. From late June through August, my schedule is more flexible. I will be available daily. I live in a quiet neighborhood in a cul-de-sac with a fenced-in yard. I have a very friendly mini Bernedoodle. I love dogs that play and lazy dogs that just like to chill.

About: I have experience with dogs, working at a doggy day care for about 2 years. I learned a lot of skills from that role, like patience, how to handle aggressive behavior and de escalating situations between dogs. I also did some grooming as well (baths & nails trims) and administered medications. I have a free schedule for the rest of the summer so I'll be available pretty much any time until late august. I’m available every morning and evening, except Sunday mornings but are available Sunday evenings and afternoons for dog walks. Morning times are open to your preference but I’d say about 7am-11am and in the afternoon-evening 12pm-6pm. I am also available for overnight stays for as many days as you need! I would make sure to understand your pets individual needs and clarify those things with You before sitting. I like to know what the schedule is so I can adjust accordingly. I'd make sure they are fed and walked and played with.

About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including dogs, bunnies, and birds. Growing up with different types of animals taught me how to adapt to each pet’s unique personality, needs, and routines. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic dogs who need structured walks and play, to smaller animals that require gentle handling and consistency. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and mood to make sure every pet is happy, healthy, and comfortable. I currently have open availability, which allows me to be flexible and fully accommodate your pet’s routine. Whether your pet needs early morning visits, midday check-ins, or evening care, I can adjust my schedule to fit their needs. Because I’m not rushing between commitments, I’m able to give each pet focused, unhurried attention during every visit. I care for pets in their own home, where they feel most safe and comfortable. My approach is always needs-based, meaning I follow your pet’s routine closely and adjust to their personality. whether they need lots of interaction or a calm, low-key presence.

About: Hello! I have 30 years of experience caring for pets. I own an 80lb lover-girl named Lobster and a 10lb rascal-cat named Trinity (from The Matrix!) My schedule is very flexible and I'm available for couch snuggles, energetic playdates, and walkies. My furry companions have other members of the family to care for them at home if I'm pet-sitting overnight. I can drop-in your place, go for walks, stay overnight, give your cat snuggles, or (with your approval) bring your pup(s) to my large fenced-in backyard!

Olivia did an awesome job ! It's always hard trusting someone to care for your babies but she gave me peace of mind while I was away. My cat warmed up to her right away which made me happy that they had company while I was gone 🥰 she even took the initiative to clean up and always reached out if she had any questions. She was quick to respond, followed all care instructions, and the communication was great! Lots of pics ☺️ I highly recommend her and look forward to having her sit for me again !

Eve was amazing when she looked after my cat! Prior to the session, she asked questions and made notes to ensure she didn’t forget anything. During my time away, she took great care of Grace - doing everything I asked and sending lots of photos/videos. Absolutely would book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Avon on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 2,434 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Avon. 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 Avon 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Avon choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Avon with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Avon. On Rover:

  • 95% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% 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.

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.
