“Pam did drop-in visits to care for our kitty while we were away on vacation. Maui really seems to like her and the extra love and attention Pam gave her was very much appreciated by us and our cat! Will definitely be calling on Pam in the future!”
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life! I’ve been in the animal care industry for about 7 years now ! Working in Kennels, Vet Clinics, volunteering at the animal shelter when I was younger and now I’m a dog groomer (3years). I have lots of experience with many breeds and sizes! No dogs too big or too small! I can trim nails if needed or even offer you my services as a dog groomer :) I’m currently working full time but I am a dog groomer so I have a pretty flexible schedule. Thursday and Sundays I’m available any time ! Monday-Wednesday I would be available after 2pm. Friday and Saturday availability is after 1pm. I am big on affection! I love to cuddle up with my cat (Sauce) and yours! If you’ll give me a chance ! I love to hike and be outdoors! I have a dog named Daisy Mae and she’s always been a fan of taking trips to the creek or just taking hours long walks just sniffing everything she sees! I make sure she’s tick free when we finish especially! I am a very outgoing person and very patient when it comes to really everything! I will make sure to treat your doggie just like mine with lots of love and extra attention! I tend to get along with bigger dogs a lot because they are high energy and love to get out and move !
“Grace was phenomenal with our cats while we were gone. We looked forward to her daily photos (our cats never looked happier), and came home from a two week trip to a totally clean space with two happy cats waiting for us. Would absolutely recommend her and will be using her again! Thank you, Grace!”
“Midas was awesome and went out of their way to get additional food for my cats when I ran out. Would definitely use them again for my babies. Great sitter!!! 🩷”
“Steve was the absolute best! He was very accommodating to moving a scheduled day we had planned to another day and time. He did so well with both of my dogs and he was very attentive and sent us a lot of pictures of his time with them. We will happily welcome him back whenever!”
“Hayley was a wonderful choice to care for our two boxers! Her drop in visits were on time and she was a great communicator!! Our two boxers can be fussy but they ate well because she made them comfortable. Highly recommend Hayley!!”
“Maria was wonderful...took great care of my cat. It was so nice to be away for a week and have the confidence that all was well at my house and with my cat. Signing up with Rover was super easy, the price is fair and I had excellent service. Extremely happy with Maria and my first Rover experience!”
About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and dependable caregiver based in Simsbury, Connecticut. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every dog and cat in my care with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own. I work from home, so your pup is never alone. We have a gorgeous golden retriever (Maverick) I'm organized, responsible, and great at communicating. I know how important it is for pet parents to receive updates and have peace of mind while they're away. Whether it's daily walks, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I'll make sure your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and energy levels and enjoy spending time outdoors, in our fenced-in yard, going for walks, playtime, and exercise. I can also follow specific feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special routines your pet may need. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Why Choose Me? Reliable and professional Excellent communication and photo updates Flexible scheduling Comfortable following detailed care instructions Patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals I'm at home full time and study part time. I love getting out and about and know all the great trails and spots your dog will love! We have a fenced-in area for your dog, but we'll mostly be out exploring. When we get home, your pup will be snuggled up on the couch, resting after a long day.
“Vanessa has been an amazing sitter. She goes above and beyond with taking care of my pets and offers a lot of peace of mind. She is very communicative and trustworthy. I highly recommend having her watch your pets.”
“Tyler is great, and our dog Lucy loves him. We’ve been using Tyler and MJ for several months for doggie daycare, this was our first time needing drop in care and he came twice during the day when we had to be out for most of the day.😊”
About: I cared for the family dog for 5 years, she was 7 when we rescued her after a breeder no longer wanted her. We wanted to give her the best years for her retirement. I then opened my home to fostering dogs a year later, to give another pup the chance to learn and experience the joys of being a family dog. I have since fostered a handful of different dogs ranging from a 3 month old puppy to a prospective agility dog, as well as a 65lb gentle giant. Whether it’s taking it slow with your senior pup or multiple daily walks/enrichment for your high drive bestie, I can do it all! Available day and night. Your pup, if crate trained, would be alone for a maximum of 3-hours, when needed. If not crate trained a secure room will be utilized in emergencies for a maximum of 1-hour. I have multiple sized crates both soft and metal. If your pup is house trained free roaming will always be allowed. If your dog has trouble acclimating and/or is not house trained, a play pen or crate may be utilized to minimize clean up from accidents. Sleeping on the bed is preferred for me, but I respect boundaries and/or crate training if needed. Dogs are never allowed off leash when outdoors, for their security and mine. Located on a quiet street with a backyard. Access to parks and trails within 20 minutes for more active dogs.
About: I work from home so your dog will receive constant supervision and companionship. A typical day includes regular bathroom breaks every few hours, interactive playtime, and scheduled feedings. We enjoy neighborhood walks and playing in the yard to burn off energy, followed by plenty of winding-down time on the couch in the evening. I work from a home office. I have one dog who spends their day with a mix of sleeping and playing. We take multiple outdoor breaks each day. I live in a home with a yard. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I offer a secure environment, constant supervision, and strict adherence to your care instructions.
“Jill was able to watch my dog last minute for a weekend away! She did a great job with her and asked questions right away if she had any concerns. She was also amazing with my anxious dog and helped with making her feel comfortable. She sent lots of pics which helped my anxiety as well 😊”
“As always, Jen was communicative, flexible, and responsible. We never worry when Jen is responsible for Tucker’s care! This time it was just a single drop in over the holiday weekend, but we were very grateful!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Avon is $18 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $26 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 2,497 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avon. 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 Avon. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
