About: I’m a retired professional who has cared for both dogs and cats when my kids were away at college. This included feeding, playing, and keeping up with training. Although I am new to professional pet-sitting, I’m reliable and committed to the happiness and wellbeing of your beloved pets. I am retired, so I have plenty of time to care for your pets! I am available any day of the week, 8am to 6pm. I am familiar with caring for both dogs and cats. My previous experience includes feeding, playing, walking, and training regimes like crate training and potty training.

“Jaclyn was wonderful- our intro meeting was great, she clearly loves dogs and when she came out for her first drop in she spent lots of time playing with my new puppy and was incredibly attentive. She’s been a great communicator and very responsive. She sent several photos and updates durning her visit as well. I would highly recommend her!”

“I wish I could give 20 stars. Hanna is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! She sent updates and pics. One of the dogs started to eat the crate tray and she was truly worried about her getting choked. She cleaned up messes from the puppy. Hanna went above and beyond!!! No more boarding kennels for us, as long as she is willing to come back. 🙂🙂🙂”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover who truly enjoys spending time with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, playtime, or a calm and attentive sitter while you're away, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. **I also offer yard freedom for all my K9 friends, as our home sits on EIGHT ACRES, a sought after haven for those high energy babies who love to get their zoomies in!** I understand that every dog is unique, so I always take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and energy levels. From energetic walks and games to relaxed companionship, I tailor my care to what your dog needs most. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. You can expect regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your furry friend is doing. I treat every dog like they’re my own and work hard to build trust with both pets and their owners. I’d love the chance to meet you and your dog and help make their days happier while you’re busy or away! I am a SAHM, so caring for dogs and cats can easily be built into my schedule! My little one loves animals, so taking him along or introducing him to someone new is always exciting, he also enjoys playing with them! We do love backpacking on trails, so there is no limit to the care and fun I can provide. I provide safe, attentive, and loving care whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. Since I have animals of my own, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and I treat every animal like part of the family. For **boarding in my home**, I create a calm and comfortable environment where pets can relax, play, and follow a routine similar to what they’re used to. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, bathroom breaks, and a safe space to rest. For **house sitting in a client’s home**, I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their normal routine—feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I also help keep the home tidy and make sure pets feel secure while their owner is away. For **dog walking**, I make sure each walk is safe, fun, and suited to the dog’s energy level. Whether your dog enjoys a brisk walk or a slower sniff-and-explore pace, I tailor the walk to their needs. For **drop-in visits**, I stop by to feed pets, refresh water, clean litter boxes or potty areas, provide playtime, and make sure they get plenty of attention and care. No matter the service, I always prioritize safety, clear communication, and keeping owners updated with messages and photos so they know their pets are happy and well cared for.

About: I have loved caring for my animals since my youth. As a child, I cared for my neighbors’ pets when my neighbors were away from home. In more recent years, caring for the adorable pets of my friends and family has been the highlight of my days. Some pet sitting highlights include ball play, swimming in the puppy pool, cuddles, long country walks, and suburban strolls. Additionally, while pet sitting, I have offered comfort during fireworks and assisted a lovable tripod dog as he navigated the stairs to and from his home. I love these pets as my own. I provide structure, play, enrichment and affection to the pets I have the privilege of pet sitting, and treat them as the treasure they are, and as pets deserve to be treated. I have experience caring for medically complex pets, as my now 15 & 1/2-year-old diabetic rescue Australian Shepherd, who I have had since she was eight months old, has required twice daily insulin injections for five years. She also requires multiple medications administered to manage medical issues that stem from her diabetes and advanced age. In addition to my elderly Aussie, I have two younger Australian Shepherds. One is very much still a puppy requiring structured guidance and reinforcement. He is a beautiful blue Merle Aussie with boundless energy. At 72 pounds, my youngest ‘puppyesque’ Aussie needs clear boundaries for proper play with his sister. Finally, my third Aussie is a beauty! She is estimated by our veterinarian to be four to five years old. She is the Aussie in charge, while, also being my shadow - that is two full time jobs for her!! I am committed to providing trusted, caring, and reliable pet care tailored to each individual pet and their family, as I do my own. As a certified member of the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS), I follow professional standards while offering a personal, compassionate approach to each family for whom I care. I have experience with puppies who need structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement through senior pets who require time, patience, gentle care, and support with medications or mobility and all ages, stages and abilities in between. I pay close attention to routines, behavior, and small details so that your pets feel safe, comfortable, and truly cared for—giving you peace of mind while you are away. I am available for drop-in visits daily for play, cuddles, meals, medication administration, and enrichment. I am able to visit early mornings and late nights depending on your pet’s needs. The safety of the pets in my care is priority. I maintain a keen awareness of the pets’ environment to ensure their safety whether on a walk, playing in the backyard or inside the home.

“Hannah did an amazing job, I am new to this area and I was really nervous to leave my dog alone for the first time so that I could have a short summer vacation. She did a great job keeping me updated and it’s pretty clear to me that Enzo had himself a great weekend without me. Not only is Hannah professional, she clearly really enjoys doing what she does which I believe makes a huge difference. I would recommend her to anybody and I plan on hiring her again.”

About: Hi! I’m Janet. I provide a quiet, home-based boarding experience for dogs who do best in a relaxed environment rather than a busy kennel setting. I work from home full-time, so your dog receives plenty of supervision, companionship, and attention throughout the day. Dogs become part of the household and are welcome to relax on the furniture, follow me from room to room, or sleep wherever they are most comfortable, including the bed if that’s their normal routine at home. My home features a fully fenced yard with dog-door access, allowing dogs to move freely between indoors and outdoors throughout the day. My Home Is Best Suited For Dogs Who: • Are friendly, well-socialized, and non-aggressive • Have a calm to moderate energy level • Enjoy a quieter home environment • Are comfortable with free access to a fenced yard 🚫 Dogs I Do Not Accept For safety and compatibility reasons, I do not accept: • Dogs with a history of aggression toward people or animals • Dogs that jump fences, climb, dig out, or otherwise attempt to escape • High-drive or high-energy dogs that require constant activity • Pit Bulls, Pit Bull-type breeds, American Bullies, Staffordshire Terriers, Cane Corsos, Presa Canarios, Rottweilers, Dobermans, Akitas, Wolf Hybrids, or mixes of these breeds I’m comfortable administering medications when needed. Just provide instructions and I’ll be happy to help. If you’re looking for a peaceful, home-based boarding experience where your dog can relax and receive individualized attention, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I maintain a consistent daily routine and try to keep each dog’s schedule as close as possible to what they’re accustomed to at home, including feeding times, medications, sleeping arrangements, and any special care instructions. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and preferences before their stay. I also provide updates and photos during boarding so owners know how their dog is doing while they’re away.

About: I have grown up with and lived with pets (dogs and cats) my entire life. For over a decade I have volunteered and fostered animals through a local animal rescue. I have passed on my love for animals to my 15-year-old daughter, Piper. She started sitting for neighboring pets three years ago. Together we would love to meet you and your furry family and provide you with outstanding pet-sitting services. Pets are not just animals, they are family. And many times, we love them more than our human family and they should be treated as such. Thank you for your consideration of our services. I work from home full time and have a fenced in yard. Working from home allows me nearly constant access to care for your dog's every need during their stay with us. Also, my schedule flexibility is perfect for midday drop-in visits and walks as needed. Piper also has availability during evenings and weekends to provide extra snuggles and play time with your furry family members. Our backyard fence is a 4' aluminum fence with custom picket spacing of 2.25" which is perfect for accommodating smaller dogs and puppies. We also have a variety of crates available if your pup prefers their own safe space. We own two small dogs (Yorkie mix and a Maltese) that are very accustomed to strange dogs (fosters and occasional overnight guests) coming through our home. And Piper, who has her own neighborhood pet/house/child sitting service, is usually available to give your fur baby extra snuggles and attention as well.

About: I’m a married 51 year old mom with two daughters aged 17 and 14. I have over 25 years of experience working in a school setting, and am now working part time. I have a 10 year old service dog who lives with us, and works with students at my school. I treat dogs as well as my own children, as I understand how much they are a part of your family. I’m responsible and will be as connected to you as you want- sending updates and pictures to ensure you feel confident that your pet is safe and happy. My husband works from home, and I’m currently working part time. We are up by 6 every morning. I’m primarily trying this on the weekends to start, however depending on your situation, the weekdays could work as well. I have a 10year old golden/lab cross. He is a neutered male and was trained by an organization as a service dog. He comes to work with me to work with students. We often watch other service dogs through this same organization, so I do have experience caring for other pets. We have a kennel in our home that we can use, if needed. While our dog loves other dogs, it would be important that your pet is not aggressive. I have zero concerns that our dog would ever be aggressive. We do not feed our dog anything other than two meals per day, as he is on a strict diet. Water is always out. We would follow all food directions you provide for your pet. Our pet is treated like a human, so no furniture is off limits and pet hair is just part of our lives.

Elizabeth was fantastic with our senior lab who has severe mobility issues among many ailments. She was extremely patient with him and spent plenty of time making sure he was comfortable and well cared for. She provided detailed updates for each check-in and helped put us at ease during our vacation. Would absolutely book her again and would recommend her without hesitation.

Crystal replied to a very short notice request as a result of a bailout from a neighbor who had said they would be my evening cat caregiver. She has impressed me with her willingness to spend time with my two very different cats and tend to their personalities and particular needs. She came every evening for six days and spent quality time with them. I highly recommended her and hope she will be available to us again in the near future.

Dakota was amazing! She stepped in at the last minute after my original cat sitter canceled and was even able to add an extra day when I asked her last minute.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Avon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Avon on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of September 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 September 2026, there are 2,606 sitters on Rover offering Pet 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.

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:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.
