“We loved Lauren! She was great caring for our kitten with several drop in visits while we were out of town. The pictures she sent were great and our kids loved being able to see their beloved kitten while always from home.”

About: I have had dogs since my childhood and have worked with breeds of different sizes and backgrounds, including some with special needs. In my home life, I have two cats that I adore and spend much of my free time with. I’m available all day on weekends, as well as from 5:30pm onward on weekdays (typically). If you have specific requirements for your animal let me know and we can create a schedule that works best for you! I can perform any specific needs that your pet may need. One of my own pets has special medical requirements, so I am familiar with taking care of animals that need extra care.

“We went on a three-week vacation and Courtney did an excellent job taking care of our 3 kitties. She took very good care of them and all our kitties love her, even the most timid ones show their belly to her lol. Also love the pictures and details she shared with us. Will definitely come back to you next time!”

About: I love dogs! I grew up with dogs, as well as have a wide range of experience with caring for puppies, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities. My apartment at this moment does not allow for dogs, so I really am looking for some dogs to give some tender loving care to in the meantime! I am a teacher, so I am free afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends! I am a teacher- so afternoons and evenings, as well as weekends work for me! During the summer, I have a lot more flexibility as well. I am currently offering drop-in visits, as well as dog walking! I am looking for dogs to love on, as I can not have my own in my current apartment.

“Magan has been a long time trusted pet sitter for me! I have four cats and a great dane, and I trust her with the detailed care for all my animals, and my home. She treats my animals like her own! The cats are pretty self sufficient with automatic feeders and a litter robot, both of which Magan learned how to use easily. One of the cats used to need pill form medication twice a day, which she was confident and great and administering. She gives the cats all the snuggles, pets, and love, so they don’t feel lonely even if I am only gone for a day! My dog, Maggie, is a rescue, she is very shy and timid. Magan let Maggie come to her and did everything perfectly to not spook her until she was comfortable. She is confident and strong walking her, because she is a strong dog! Overall, if you want your home and babies to be treated with all the love and respect they deserve, book Magan as your pet sitter!”

“Katie jumped in last minute after our dog sitter had a family emergency and made it possible for us to still take our trip! Our dog is 125lb and very nervous around new people. We only had a few days to do introductions and Katie showed up every day for meetups before we left. Our dog warmed up to her really fast and she did amazing with him!! Thank you Katie!!”

About: I have been taking care of all types of animals since I was a teenager. I am great with dogs both large and small. My friends also call me the cat whisperer because I can earn any type of cats trust. I work Monday-Friday and get done around 4pm. I am very open on the weekends and every night of the week. Additionally my work schedule is flexible so if you need specific accommodations I can most likely make that work. I have a pet friendly apartment with lots of grass to run around in to play and go to the bathroom. Additionally my apartment is a comfy and cozy home with nothing that animals would be getting into.

About: Just a law student looking to get some textbook money and then distract myself from reading said textbooks by loving on and caring for some adorable pets to distract! I love pets of all shapes and sizes and have cared for others’ pets for many years. I also have two kitties of mine own! As a pet owner, I know how important it is to have a sitter who truly cares for your pet and can also keep their routine as normal as possible while their owner is away. For every client, I strive to make this happen and disrupt their life as little as possible. As I am in school, my schedule can be a bit flexible outside of my classes! I am unable to host pets at my own place, but I am more than willing to drive for your convenience.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was 12! I help my neighbors, family, and friends whenever I can. I love all animals :) I have 4 cats of my own! I’m currently working full time Monday-Friday 10:30am to 7pm! I have plenty of time in the morning before work for pet care and after work. I'm not able to host pets at my home, but I bring the same level of care and attention directly to yours. I'm happy to follow your routine exactly — feeding, walks, playtime, medication, and all the snuggles your pet needs to feel safe and loved while you're away. I'll keep you updated with photos and check-ins so you always know how your fur baby is doing! :)

“Melissa was an excellent sitter for our 2 cats. They really loved her and how she interacted with them, and we felt confident the entire time we were away that they were being cared for as we would care for them. We 100% recommend, and will definitely book Melissa again next time we need a sitter for our purr monsters.”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Basco

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Basco is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $0 and $25 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 1,497 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Basco. 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 Basco. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
