About: Since childhood, taking in and rehabilitating stray animals has been a huge part of my life. No matter the breed, my goal is to provide high quality care and love. I’ve provided plenty of dog sitting and cat care to friends and family over the years. I am a travel nurse (originally from florida) and I am desperately missing my fur babies back home! I’m hoping this will provide the opportunity for some quality time with other people’s fur babies to fill the gap temporarily <3 I currently work 3 days per week as a travel nurse, leaving my 4 days off open to spend time with your babies! I have no other obligations or duties during my off days, so that time is strictly dedicated to your pet. I do not currently have any of my own pets in my home nor any children. I am able to provide several walks for exercise and outside time. My home is very quiet and calm, providing a safe space for your pet with minimal stress.

About: I have grown up with large dogs (Dobermans, Pitties, Mastiffs) my entire life. I have been rescuing Pitties for over 20yrs and am currently on my fourth rescue. I am experienced with medication administration, special needs and, all ages of dogs from newborn to senior. I have an hour lunch break and, am free after 3pm daily and, all day every other wknd! I care for my 3 pets and can't wait to get home and see them! I work 7-3 most days but, my dog is yard trained so, can be let out multiple times when I am not at home. Once I do get home, we head out for a walk and then, its dinner time! All of my animals are allowed on my furniture and, choose who's bed they sleep in each night!

About: I have taken care of pets for a long time. My neighbor had me dog sit last year for about 2 weeks and it was honestly the best experience. I have also had experience with feeding another neighbors dog once a day while they were at work. Hi! I’m home for the summer and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m available throughout the week for walks and drop-ins. I love spending time with animals and will make sure your pets get plenty of attention, care, and affection! 🐾 I will easily follow every step that is given to me with rules and boundaries of what the pet can or can not do. I will not bend rules

About: I’m great with all kinds of dogs — active pups who love playtime outdoors and calm dogs who enjoy peaceful, relaxing moments. I adjust my care to fit their personality and make sure they feel comfortable and loved. I am usually pretty free during the week, but send me a message and we can find a time that works for both of us! I keep each pet’s care as consistent as possible with their normal routine. I also make sure every dog gets extra attention so they always feel safe, happy, and comfortable.

Kailah has been great with my dogs! I have 2 rescues who are super nervous around new people. This was our 3rd time booking with Kailah, she has been super patient and they are starting to warm up to her. I would recommend Kailah and will definitely be using her services again.

About: I have a great, rambunctious 6-year-old Golden Retriever named Cobie, and previously had another wonderful, loving Golden Retriever named Max, who we cared for well into his old age--17! I have taken care of dogs for friends and family all throughout my life, and always shower them with all the love in the world! I am currently in graduate school, but I am available for late afternoons or evenings and nights during the week, and anytime during the weekend! I always ensure safety of the dog and the home, whether that be crates, blocking off parts of the house, and following set rules and routines. Just as important is love and gentleness, doing my best to build a dog's trust.

Sarah is the best! I have an older pup and an independent cat; right away she put my mind at ease as her experience and care for animals radiates. She communicated clearly and promptly with me from the pre-booking to after the visits. She followed every direction and went above and beyond. I loved her updates and photos; I appreciated her kindness and attention to details. My pets said they had an amazing time with her! I would recommend her and welcome her back any time.

About: I’ve been around dogs all my life, but started caring for them on my own since I was 10 years old. As I got older, I was around cats more and more, and now I have a great love for both pets!! My experience includes walks, potty breaks, playtime, overnighting with pets, senior care, and caring for high energy dogs. I often work on the weekends and Wednesday nights, but like to stay busy during the week. Staying busy mostly means being active and running errands. Pet care is a perfect opportunity for me to fill in the gaps! I will visit the pets as much as needed, feed them when advised to, pet them and play with them, and take them on nice, relaxing walks.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the depth of experience and genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I grew up caring for my family’s Labrador Retriever from puppyhood until his senior years at 13, giving me hands-on experience with everything from energetic puppy routines to the patience and attentiveness older dogs need. Now, I’ve transitioned into house sitting and dog walking to stay connected to that same joy and companionship. I treat every dog like my own—focused on their comfort, safety, and happiness. Pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I’m currently planning to go back to school, so I’m keeping my weekdays flexible for studying and personal commitments. That means weekends are the perfect time for me to spend quality time with pets. I love having dedicated, unrushed time to focus on walks, play, and companionship—so weekend pet care fits perfectly into my routine I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow the feeding schedule you provide, make sure they get plenty of exercise and outdoor time, all while maintaining any training or house rules you’ve set. I give lots of attention, monitor their behavior, and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing. I also have experience administering injections in the human medical field, so I am comfortable administering those trickier medications to your pets! My priority is making your pet feel safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away—just as they would with you.

About: I’ve had dogs of all sizes myself, and have friends and family whose cats I’ve watched as well. I am extremely active and can walk/run dogs all day long! I’d love to help your dogs be more active with me! I am a college student who works on campus, but I do have afternoons and weekends free. I have a reliable vehicle so I can make it to appointments. I’d love to get on a weekly schedule of dog walking to make activity normal for their lives and mine! I’m very respectful and professional about being invited into someone’s home to care for their pet. I’m a stickler for rules and standards, and will always communicate what the proper care is before I arrive for your pet.

About: I've grown up with animals since I was born and have gained the largest appreciation for pets of all shapes and sizes. Besides this, I have watched numerous pets for friends, family, and neighbors and ensured all pet's needs were met.

About: My name is Katie and I have dogs of my own. With that being said, I understand that each pet truly needs unique and individual care. I am a teacher and have been for the past 13 years. I take care of pets in my spare time in order to earn some extra money. I can provide references upon request from families who had me take care of their dogs and cats in the past. Thank you for considering me as a potential care giver for your pet! I am a teacher so during the school year I am available late afternoons during the week and am also available on the weekend. I am more available during the summer. I care for pets of my clients the same way that I care for my own. The pets’ safety and well-being are my top priority.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Bethany on Rover is $27.75 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 3,006 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Bethany. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Bethany stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Bethany choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Bethany with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Bethany. On Rover:

  • 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% 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.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
