“Sam was a fantastic sitter!! She came for drop in visits twice a day and was prompt, friendly, and communicative! Sam sent lots of pictures of the animals and asked questions as needed to ensure our cat and dog had the best possible care. We felt safe leaving our pets in her care and would absolutely book with her again!”

About: I am a lifelong animal advocate. With over 45 years hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, I bring unmatched dedication and heart to every pet I meet. My background includes seven years as a veterinary technician and several years of veterinary university schooling, giving me medical knowledge and confidence to handle everything from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra attention. Beyond the skills and training, my true gift is my deep love for animals, and my ability to create a peaceful, low-stress environment where pets play then relax and thrive especially when you are away from your home. When you entrust me with your canine or feline furry baby, you can rest assured that they will receive wonderful, loving care, genuine affection and a comfortable stable presence in your home. I am pet parent to 7 year old Boxer mix rescue Elvis, 3 years old Boxer Hope, two 12 year old rescued/fostered cats, Finn and Karma and my 34 year old feathered friend African Grey Remo! Multiple dogs/pets and/or several daily check in's are not a problem for me - available for overnight stays, early mornings. I currently have full availability for housesitting services, overnight pet sit in your home or conduct daily check-ins at your home seven days per week. When you invite me into your home to care for your pets, their safety, comfort and happiness become my top priorities. I take great pride in creating a trustworthy, calm and loving environment where animals feel secure and at ease, especially when their humans are gone. I am attentive to every detail from maintaining consistent routines to watching for signs of stress or discomfort. My approach is always gentle, patient, and grounded in respect for both your pets and your home. You can rest easy knowing that your furry family members are in responsible caring hands, receiving dependable attention and affection in your absence.

About: Update: I will not be available May 18-25, and Jun 2-14 I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! In high school, I started volunteering at a veterinary hospital and eventually worked there, which gave me hands-on experience caring for pets and made me realize just how much I love working with animals. Growing up, I had all kinds of pets, including dogs, birds, rabbits, turtles, and even iguanas. Because of that, I'm comfortable caring for animals with all sorts of personalities and needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels—from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. I'm also comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and can administer medications, including pills, injections, and other treatments as directed by your veterinarian. Most importantly, I treat every pet like they're part of my own family. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy tail wag or helping a nervous pup feel comfortable and at home. Most mornings start around 7:00 AM with potty breaks and breakfast. After everyone has eaten and settled in, I open the dog door so pups can safely move between the house and yard throughout the day. When the weather is nice, we spend plenty of time outside playing fetch, exploring the yard, splashing in the kiddie pool, enjoying enrichment activities, or simply relaxing in the sunshine. Depending on your dog's personality and your approval, we may also enjoy car rides, trips to the park, or local walking trails. Throughout the day, there are plenty of potty breaks, supervised play sessions, cuddle time, and opportunities to rest. Dogs who prefer quieter environments are given space to relax, while active pups get lots of exercise and engagement. Dinner is usually around 6:00 PM, giving everyone plenty of time for evening potty breaks before winding down for the night. Bedtime is typically between 8:00 and 9:00 PM, with lots of cozy snuggles and comfortable sleeping arrangements. Whether your dog loves to play all day or prefers lounging on the couch, I'll make sure they feel right at home and receive plenty of attention, love, and care. **Safety, Trust & Environment** Your pet's safety and happiness are my top priorities. I know how important it is for dogs to stick to routines, so I do my best to follow the schedule they're used to at home—from feeding times to bedtime routines and everything in between. I provide a safe, clean, and supervised environment where dogs can relax, play, and feel comfortable. Playtime is always monitored, and I regularly check my fenced yard and gates to make sure everything stays secure. The yard is cleaned daily so everyone has a clean space to enjoy. To help keep all guests healthy, I require proof of current Rabies, Bordetella, and DHPP vaccinations before boarding. You'll also receive updates, photos, and videos throughout your pet's stay because I know how much it means to see your furry family member having fun while you're away. My goal is simple: for your dog to feel like they're on vacation while you have peace of mind knowing they're loved and cared for.

I am pleased with Nannette’s care of our precious cats. She was pleasure to work with. Excellent communication from beginning to end. Was on time. Engaged our pets to play, refilled food, fed them snacks and cleaned litter boxes and surrounding area and even offered to take the litter to garage so it doesn’t stink up the place out of courtesy. Had a package delivery sitting outside the house that she offered to put it in the garage for me. I am very pleased with her service and would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pets.

It was clear that Jojo felt safe and completely comfortable and cared for the entire time. I would not hesitate to book Keith again and I highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking dependable, thorough, and loving pet care!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Blythewood on Rover is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 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 1,109 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Blythewood. 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 Blythewood. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 98% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
