“Her credentials are what drew me to her and from day one (the meet and greet) I knew she’d be the one. Loki my male cat doesn’t warm up to anyone for at least a week of them coming around and he went right to her. He could sense her kind soul. I have never hired a pet sitter before this but I will definitely hire Taryn again. She went above and beyond. I had to have major surgery and was in the hospital for 7 days and it was comforting to know that my cats Stella and Loki were in terrific loving hands. Love Love Love her!!!”

“Amelia is was amazing with our 13 year old dog. She sent multiple photos with every check-in. She also kept us updated on how Jarvis was eating while we were gone - he has some separation anxiety and doesn’t always like to eat a lot when we aren’t home. I highly recommend booking with Amelia - we definitely will book again the next time we need someone to check in on Jarvis!”

“Siika was a wonderful sitter for our cat Marley! We needed her last-minute, and during a major holiday week, so she really came through! We got updates and photos from her daily, and she spent some extra time playing with Marley knowing we had just recently lost our other cat and this would be her first time solo. Everything was tidy when we got home, and Marley seemed happy and very well taken care of. We are so appreciative and would highly recommend Siika!”

“We've used Rover for many years, and Isabelle was hands down the best pet sitter we've ever had. She gave us notes after every visit which I really appreciated. She also provided plenty of pictures which my children loved. She showed up for each drop in on time and stayed more than the full amount of time. I felt like our pup was very well taken care of and we would definitely use her again!”

About: I have always loved taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I have worked as a kennel technician for over 2 years, and have fallen in love with providing special care towards animals. There, I create safe play groups, feed, walk, play, and of course, clean! I will make sure to pay close attention to any special needs your pet may have. Accommodating to your dogs energy level, temperament, age, and health is very important to me. I will ensure to pay very close attention to any issues or concerns I may see while spending time with your pup. I believe maintaining a clean and tidy environment is important to an animals health. I will provide updates with messages and pictures about our time together. I look forward to hanging out and connecting with you and your pet! I am currently a college student, working an odd schedule. I will try to accommodate accordingly to whatever fits best for you. I make your pets needs and care a #1 priority, next to school work of course. I have 2 dogs of my own, Luna (labradoodle), who I have trained since she was a puppy, and Lacy (French Bulldog), who I am currently training (she is 5 months old). Although I do not have professional training experience, I will say I put all my patience into providing simple tasks that can better your dogs skills. Whether if it’s during walks, crate time, or a simple sit and stay, I will provide my best efforts for your pup to succeed in these things. Along with training, I always make sure to spend quality time with my puppies because we are what’s most important to them. I believe playtime is very important to keeping a dog young and healthy! In any clients home, I make sure to spend as much quality time with the clients dog to build a strong connection.

About: I have grown up around animals and am experienced taking care of puppies to senior dogs. I have spent the last couple of years learning more about what makes a dog stay healthy and happy. I understand how a pet is a member of your family or your whole world so I will treat them as such. They deserve to be cared for at the standard they would be by you and I will take that responsibility seriously. I have my own dog at home and sometimes life gets busy and I need others to help me. I enjoy doing the same for others by dropping in, walking your dog, or watching them overnight. I have a very dog friendly apartment with its own walking trail to take your pet on a walk. I also have balcony’s overlooking the trail that dogs enjoy sitting on and watching the activity outside. I do have my own dog who is crate trained but he also always wants to play with other dogs. I can keep the dogs separated in my home, or out loose depending on your preference. I have no problem sharing furniture and couches with a fur baby because their comfort is my priority.

“Christy was amazing while she visited my cats. She took excellent care of them every time she came by and they absolutely loved her. She was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond when I thought my door was unlocked while I was away, coming back to make sure my pets and my home were secure. Would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will care for your pets like they would.”

About: 🐾 Experienced, Loving Care for Dogs of Every Kind 🧡 For the past 10 years, I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra patience and special care. 🐶 I’m comfortable with a wide range of temperaments and am also experienced with beginning training and reinforcing good habits. Most importantly, I take a welcoming, trustworthy, and patient approach so every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup needs exercise, playtime, companionship, basic training, or a little extra TLC, I’m here to treat them like family while you’re away. 🧡🐕 🏡 Flexible, Dedicated Care for Your Fur Babies 🐾🧡 I work from home with a very flexible schedule, which allows me the freedom to travel and work from anywhere. That flexibility means I can give your pets the time, attention, and companionship they deserve not just a quick visit, but genuine care throughout the day. 🐶🐱 I’m also available for house sitting and extended pet-sitting stays, making me a great fit for longer trips, vacations, or times when your pets simply do best with someone around. My goal is to make your time away easier and give you peace of mind knowing your fur babies and your home are in caring, trustworthy hands. 🧡🐾 🐾 Active Adventures or Cozy Companionship—Whatever Your Pet Needs 🧡 I’m an active pet sitter who loves getting outside for walks, exploring, and little adventures that keep your pets happy, excited, and engaged. Whether your pup loves a long walk, a game of fetch, or simply discovering new smells along the way, I’m always happy to keep them moving and having fun! 🐶🌿 At the same time, I understand that not every pet is looking for an adventure. Some animals thrive in a calm, quiet environment where they can relax and feel secure. I’m happy to slow things down and give them all the patience, comfort, and one-on-one attention they need. 🐱🏡 Every pet is different, and I love meeting them where they are—whether that means adventure, playtime, cuddles, or simply being a calm and caring presence. 🧡

I don’t currently own any animals so their is no need to worry about your pet not getting along or having to interact with any other animals.

About: I have had a furry friend in my life in some form or another since I was very young. I have experience with both more reactive and friendly breeds and have no preference on the kinds I work with. I use patience and understanding to make them feel safe. I worked professionally as a dog walker and pet sitter for two years to multiple dogs and can bring love and affection to any animals in my care. I am responsible, punctual and a great communicator and can be an asset in caring for your dog or other animals while you are away or on a regular basis for walks. I work 4 nights a week from 3pm-11pm downtown. I am not opposed to early morning visits or late nights visits if required and am available for overnights. I do a walkthrough with owners of exact locations for all your pets, learn their quirks, the things they love and don’t like and what might come up during my stay with them. I answer all phone calls and texts from owners while they are away to ensure they feel safe and comfortable knowing their animals are properly cared for.

About: Lifelong animal lover, happy to take care of your fur babies. Pets are family, i know how hard it is to leave your pets with just anyone. My goal is to make you feel at peace knowing your babies are taken care of properly and loved the way they should be. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs. Whether your pup needs a good walk, lots of playtime, some extra cuddles, or your kitty just needs someone to keep them company, I’m here for it! I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax knowing they’re being loved on. I work 6-hour shifts, 5 days a week, so I have flexibility before and after work as well as on my days off. I am off my actual job Sundays/ Mondays. Tuesdays I work 10-4. Wednesdays/ Thursdays I work 8-2. Fridays I work 2-8. My Saturday schedule varies! I’m also a mom, so my daughter may occasionally be with me for walks or drop in visits. I’m happy to work with each pet parent to find a schedule that works well for everyone! Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, playtime, and care based on their individual routine. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, potty breaks, and anything else they need to feel comfortable. In your home, I’ll respect your space and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. In my home, I’ll provide a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can relax and feel at home.

About: Growing up, I took care of almost all of my four pets' (two dogs, two cats) needs until I recently moved for college! I also cared for horses for the past two years! I have experience with puppies and senior dogs, through several years of paid dog-sitting and cat-sitting experience. I can handle meals, administer medication, take pets on walks, as well as being a source of company for the animal. I truly love animals and would love to help you! I am a full time student at UNCW! However, I have a lot of free time, especially in the afternoons and evenings. I can be flexible! My current apartment doesn't allow animals, so I am looking for dog-walking and petsitting opportunities within the clients home! I can keep the environment clean and secure while caring for your animal.

We had a wonderful experience and would absolutely hire Jennifer again in an instant! She was incredibly attentive, communicative, and genuinely lovely to speak with throughout our time away. We felt very comfortable knowing both our cat and our home were being well cared for. We also ran into a few unexpected issues with feeding, and she handled everything with so much patience, thoughtfulness, and care. She was proactive about keeping us updated and worked with us to make sure our cat was comfortable and well taken care of. We really appreciated how kind, reliable, and conscientious she was. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Belville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Belville on Rover is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 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 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 October 2026, there are 1,352 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Belville. 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 Belville. On Rover:

  • 97% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 99% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 99% 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.
