“Maggie took great care of our cats. She had a family emergency during our trip, but provided her own backup sitter to ensure our cats were still taken care of.”

“We're visiting from Texas with our three Chihuahuas and wanted to do a day tríp in Sedona where we couldn't bring the pups. This was our first time using Rover and we're so happy we gave it a try and found Raven! Two of our dogs are very old and one has separation anxiety. She was comfortable, detailed, and compassionate with our dogs and took amazing care of them. We had total peace of mind leaving them for the day with her doing drop-ins for them. We have already referred family in the area to her. Definitely recommend! Thanks, Raven!”

About: I have experience with pet medication, walking, and basic grooming and training. I’m available most of the time. I love taking dogs on close by trails, or to a dog park if preferred. I can also provide dog training. Dogs are a lot of fun and honestly I don’t want to be doing anything else. I’m very responsible and reliable and a I have a new car which kind of ensures that transportation won’t be an issue. If you give me a chance, I’ll be there. And if you let me, I’ll bring my dogs and we can have a puppy play date, if you will. I’m still young so I can definitely keep up, and so can my own dogs. I work Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm. So I’m available for evening walks and evening visits, and I’m completely open on the weekends! I can feed your pets on time and adhere to whatever your potty schedule may be. I have a fenced in yard and a loving 5 year old dog. We love guests at our house. If you prefer, I can watch your babies at your house. This is my most common request.

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life, and I gained a lot of experience from a three year stint when I was younger and had seven at once ! The two I currently have are potty trained by me, and they respond to basic commands like ‘sit’, ‘drop it’, ‘come’, and ‘quiet’. I have also taken care of two senior, as well as groomed a goldendoodle named Moose! I’m very good with dogs, and I love just being around them! I’m currently a college student, but my weekends and afternoons are free. Early early mornings (5:15-7 am) are also free, though my availability at those times would be distance based. I do not have a place at my dorm to entertain dogs, but I have my own car in which there is plenty of space to transfer a dog to a park or even to the vet!

We've booked with Hope three times now. She's always kind, responsive and our cats seem to enjoy her check-ins too. She allows us to enjoy our time away without stress and worry. She's the perfect example is what a Rover sitter should be.

Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 per visit. 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 of September 2026, there are 30 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Batesville. 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
