“Mika was an angel! Any requests I had, she made them happen. She was a really big help with taking care of my fur babies while I was away for the holidays! Mika kept me updated every second of each visit and was always punctual. Would definitely book with her again!”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of Benji over the two days she watched him. From the very beginning, she was warm, communicative, and super attentive. I received regular updates with pictures and videos, and it brought me so much peace of mind knowing Benji was in such good hands. She walked him, fed him! You can tell she genuinely loves animals and enjoys what she does. Benji looked so happy and comfortable with her, and I could tell he had a great time. I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future, thank you so much, Shannon!”
“Charlie always has our backs and although we haven’t formally met in person yet , I genuinely trust her and her partner with our babies. Thank you Charlie for always being there our pups when we need you most. 🐶 🐾 ❤️”
“I can’t recommend Zoe enough! She took incredible care of Millie and Sadie, while I was away. From regular updates and photos to taking them for a walk. It’s such a relief to know I can trust someone so reliable, professional, and genuinely passionate about animals. Thank you so much – we’ll definitely be booking again!”
“Vickie was fast to respond to my short notice of sitting for our Great Dane. She did such a great job and spent quality time on her drop in visit. The updates and pictures were great as well while I was away at work. Can’t wait to have Vickie help with our pup soon.”
“Theda has been doing drop in visits for my dog for a couple of weeks. She is very dependable and my dog Jack seems well taken care of, and happy when I get home. I highly recommend Theda for your animals!”
“Jamey is amazing! My puppy loved her and was so sad when she left! She took great care of her, kept her entertained and the separation anxiety at bay. Will definitely use her in the future and recommend her for your pets as well!”
“Nikki was great. She was very mindful of our pets. Provided wonderful photos while we were out. And corresponded on any concerns she saw arise with our pets. It will give me great peace of mind going forward to work with Nikki again to take care of our pets while we were out of town. She definitely goes above and beyond.”

“Joy was a complete Godsend during my recent vacation when I unexpectantly became hospitalized out of state. She was amazing in that she continued to care for my pets making certain that they were safe and well taken care of. Prompt checks-ins and photos gave me peace of mind during an uncertain time. She even did extra's along the way. Will definitely be using her again when in need of a pet sitter!”
“Christine was amazing. She took the job, and in less than an hour was at my door. I like to say, taking care of my animals is a no-brainer. I just wanna come home and have them still alive. Christine did a great job, and managed to give the some great lovin’ as well.”
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, especially dogs and cats. My parents have always had Labradors, so I grew up with them, and we also had three horses. Being surrounded by animals from such a young age really shaped me and made me a lifelong animal lover. My partner and I have two cats right now, and we’re hoping to welcome a puppy within the year. Animals truly are a wonderful gift, bringing so much love, joy, and companionship into our lives. I’m an ISR instructor during the spring/summer and in the fall and winter I’m a stay-at-home cat mom with plenty of time and love to devote to your babies. Caring for animals is truly my joy, and I’m so grateful to be able to give them all the attention they deserve. I will care for your pets like they’re my own! I love going on long walks and playing with all animals even if they’re indoor animals as well

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Avonak
Katie is WONDERFUL!! She was a lifesaver last minute for our two pups & took the time to get to know them & asked questions before watching them. We felt zero worries about our dogs while out of town thanks to Katie! She gave spot on daily reports with many sweet details about her visits. We’re so grateful we found her & can’t wait to have her watch our boys again!
Jordan is so genuine in her care for our babies and goes above and beyond to not just manage them, but to play and connect with them. She learns their respective personalities and quirks and really finds a way to make them feel loved. She communicates great and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!
Brandi did an amazing job taking care of my cat, Jellybean! She was super communicative, punctual, and reliable, and I felt completely comfortable knowing Jellybean was in good hands. She took the time to play with her during her visits and sent me tons of pictures and updates, which I really appreciated while I was away. Definitely a 10/10 experience, and I would absolutely book with Brandi again!
Another great experience with Andi and Steven. Everything went perfectly. They checked in on our cat Pearl exactly as requested. After each visit to our house they sent great reports with pictures and useful information. They went above and beyond in some of the non-so-fun kitty-related departments like wet food handling, hairball cleanup, and litter box management. Maybe most importantly they are wonderful people and are obviously huge animal lovers. We are thankful to have had them care for our kitty on our last two trips out of town. We hope to continue working with them in the future and would certainly recommend them highly to others.
I would highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for reliable and caring help. She did drop-in visits for my cats while I was away, and from the start, she was incredibly professional and communicative. What I appreciated most was how she kept me consistently updated. She always let me know ahead of time when she would be arriving, which gave me great peace of mind. During each visit, she sent photos, and it was so reassuring to see them well cared for, and comfortable in her presence.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Avonak is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 5,604 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Avonak. 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 Avonak. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
