“Elise has excellent attention to detail. She’s willing to go the extra mile during drop in visits by doing more than just letting our dog out for a midday pee break. She also pulled out the puzzles and Kong treats for other doggie entertainment. I know Piper appreciated it.”

“Tiffany and Thomas were excellent caregivers for my 3 cats - two of which have special dietary restrictions which were handled flawlessly. They provided great updates for each of the twice daily visits. 10/10 will book again.”

About: Available all holidays. I work with people and their pets consistently. I have a background in the medical and paralegal field . We can accommodate any pup , any situation! I have had my own dog kennel for years . I’m very energetic & love animals & so does my son & family members who do this with me . I take them on walks and keep them entertained . Since i have experience whelping and with mommy dogs , i can take on any challenge . I can administer medication responsibly. Not all dogs get along with other dogs , i understand that . I have a nice insulated building with heat and ac for the dogs who really prefer their own space . It’s very nice & comfortable in there. But i do offer space in my home as well for free roam or the very nice puppy cave - lots of land !&& a great areas to play in - no roads near by . Plus a 6 ft tall fence. They gets lots of play time since I’m generally home. I Keep toys and supplies & cute fenced in areas for smaller pups as well to separate from big pups . Doggies are spoiled here, every pup gets one on one time . Plenty of space to run && play outside & in the very spacious open floor home . From big to little , they are welcome here . Experience with high anxiety pets and older dogs. Conditioned “puppy cave” in home as well for pups who like their own space but don’t want to be in the building . Prices can be discussed for multiples & long stays or in general if it is an emergency & unexpected , I’ll work with you . We put our time & care & money into what we do . This is not the only place that i promote my pet sitting business, but Rover is awesome ! Lots of experience & many references for months/weeks long stays . Can also offer grooming (special comfortable tub ) & training when needed . Our days are literally centered around the puppies we keep . They are our top priority- you will love the updates . I have my own animals that i have to take out and keep entertained myself . So taking care of dogs is part of my daily routine. Plus I’m home most the time so the dogs are a main focus. Gives me a lot of bonding time with my son as well . We really enjoy playing and spending time with them. Acres of land - not close to any roads what so ever . Perfect yard . Can free roam with supervision on the acres or play in the 6ft tall fence. Nice dog building with great heating And air . But can also have them In the house . Welcome to check both spaces out . Same exact set up. They will be let out often. And can keep dogs separated when they do not get along with other animals- i do not believe in putting multiple dogs in a playroom loose not knowing their personalities well yet - very small groups with regulars is completely ok but most pups need proper introductions before throwing them in a space with other unknown pets & an unknown new human watching- it can be very unpredictable even if your pup is super social . I keep supplies such as dog shampoo , dog treats, toys and other things that may be needed. They get lots of love and cuddles here. 6ft tall fence for the big babies . Space to run inside the home if weather is ugly.

About: I've been pet sitting for some family friends for the last 5 years and have watched dogs of various breeds for 4 different families. Watching both dogs and just recently in the last year cats. So far I've watched up to 3 dogs at a time. I'm happy to take them out for walks, make sure that they go to the bathroom, that they've eaten, medicine taken, and their water bowls are always filled. I've watched both senior dogs and young dogs. If your sweet fur child has any need any specific needs that need to be followed just let me know and I'll make sure it's done! I'll also make sure to give you updates on anything that happens! Like when I get to your place, when I'm about to leave, if your furry friend gets sick, has an accident, or just general update how well they're doing. I'm also working to get a pet cpr certification. I do ask that before I watch your furry buddy that I come over for a short visit before the scheduled date to meet your furry friend, so you and your furry friend can both trust me, and we can discuss any specific details and get a key to your house if needed. I'm a single game developer and artist who works from home. So I've got a good amount of free time throughout the day, where I can stop working and drive over to help out if your in need of any. If your someone that works an early morning shift and you need someone at your house by 6 to 7 AM at the latest to let your dogs go to the bathroom, make sure they're fed, medicine taken, or take them out for a short walk. I can be there. I can promise you that I'm a rule follower. If you tell me not to do something I won't do it. If I am unsure of something I can promise you that I'll send you a text or give you a call to get your input on whatever it is that I'm unsure of. I'll also make sure to give updates, and let you know when I've arrived and when I'm leaving. I'll also make sure to let you know if any accidents happen, and clean up any mess that may happen!

“I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about Jordan. She means it when she says she will care for your pets like they are her own, and she proved that to us in a way I won't forget. Jordan had checked in on our dog a couple of times the first day and again the following morning. On her last scheduled visit, she walked into the house to find that he had destroyed the kennel we were keeping him in and completely shredded a tarp. Instead of simply completing her check-in and leaving, Jordan immediately became concerned that he may have swallowed some of the tarp and could potentially have a blockage. I was still hours away from home, and Jordan insisted on staying with him until I could get back because she didn't feel comfortable leaving him alone. After talking it through, we decided the safest thing was to have her take him to a pet urgent care rather than wait for me to get home. Jordan did not hesitate for even a second. She took him to the vet, stayed with him, kept me updated, and made sure he was safe until I could get there. What was supposed to be a simple check-in turned into an incredibly stressful situation, and Jordan went so far above and beyond anything I could have expected from her. When someone is caring for your pet, you're trusting them with a member of your family, and Jordan treated our dog exactly that way. I will forever be grateful that she was the person looking after him that day. She truly means it when she says she cares for your pets like she does her own. I could not recommend Jordan more. ❤️🐾”

About: I’m a passionate pet sitter with professional training in Pet CPR/First Aid and Fear-Free certification, ensuring your pets are safe and stress-free. With experience caring for a variety of animals, including cats, dogs, and small rodents, I understand their needs and behaviors. I’ve worked with pets of all temperaments, like a special Sphynx cat that needed extra attention and basic grooming. I’m also experienced in helping pets with fear and anxiety, including breeds like Bullies, and Labs who are afraid of thunderstorms. Trust in me to provide loving, attentive care for your pets, keeping them happy, healthy, and content. I start my mornings with yoga and breakfast drop ins, spend my afternoons with nail clients and training with my service dog, and end my days providing dinner drop ins and overnight stays. I value this calm, intentional routine because it allows me to provide loving, attentive care for my furry clients, and my own fur babes while continuing to grow personally and professionally. In you and your pet's home, I focus on following the guidelines you leave and respecting client confidentiality. These are my top priorities. I strive to keep routines consistent to minimize stress for your pets. This includes help with tasks like taking in the mail, and watering plants.

I have an extremely shy dog who did really well with her, and they both seemed very happy throughout each visit and when we arrived home.

“Kendric and Jana were awesome. They were very flexible and worked with me on my last-minute changes to the schedule. They were kind and compassionate with my 15 year-old cat just recently diagnosed with an overactive thyroid which required medication. I had tremble administering the pills, and was frustrated by the process and so was Lucy, but Kendric calmly mixed the pills into her food and down they went. What a relief to me. They definitely have my recommendation.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Barbecue

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Barbecue is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $27 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 2,097 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Barbecue. 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 Barbecue. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.
