About: I've had pet dogs for nearly 20 years now, and I love being around them! I love being active and exercising with my dog and I'm a big believer that a well-exercised dog is a well behaved dog. I work full-time, but I am available late afternoon into the evenings and all day/night on the weekends. In some cases I might be able to do morning walks. My dog is house trained and has freedom to roam in the home. The house is void of anything that could endanger a pet. My dog is only here half of the time, so in many instances, your dog will be the only one here.

“Helen was kind enough to come in advance and meet our dog and see the set-up. She was flexible and communicative during the sessions and provided detailed updates about how our dog was doing throughout our time away. We will definitely use Helen again when we need a walker for our dog and would recommend her to friends and family.”

About: Hey there! I have experience with all kinds of animals. I’ve fostered big dogs, worked with horses in equine assisted therapy, and have pet-sitted cats as well as currently have my own two cats. I love walking and am always looking to get my steps in. My two cats are harnessed trained and enjoy going on walks. I am currently looking for a full-time job and have a part-time from 2-6 pm every weekday. This allows me to be flexible and to drop by in the morning or in the evening. I am very observant and careful when dog walking. I am always on the lookout for possible dog stressors like cars, people, or other dogs. I am very respectful of any home I am in. Our pets have mental health problems just like us and I strive to create a calming and enjoyable environment for all furry friends.

About: My family got our first and only dog in 2019, a jack Russel Chihuahua named Sadie. She was very energetic despite her age and loved attention, people and especially children. I'm not as good at grooming dogs as I am cats (ie nail trimming) but I can bathe and brush any dog's teeth or coat. Every day I care for my 2 cats and bearded dragon. I'm unemployed at this time so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets. Some may say that the hardest part about owning a cat is their claws but I've trimmed even the most unruly kitties nails in my time. Even my friends dog Teddy probably loves me more than her 😂

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, birds, and a wide variety of small household pets. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of looking after animals of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience, comfort, and attentive care. I’m especially experienced in supporting older dogs and cats, including those with mobility challenges or special routines. I’m comfortable administering medications as directed and understand the importance of consistency, observation, and clear communication when it comes to your pet’s health and well-being. Whether your pet needs playtime and exercise, gentle companionship, or specialized care, I strive to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where they feel secure and happy. I truly enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality and building trust so they feel right at home while you’re away. I currently pet sit part-time because spending time with animals truly means so much to me. After recently losing a few of my own beloved pets, I’ve found a lot of comfort in caring for others and sharing that same love and attention. It’s incredibly rewarding to connect with each pet and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow your instructions closely from feeding schedules and walks to playtime, litter care, and any medications, while making sure your pet feels safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. I take the time to give them plenty of attention, affection, and companionship, and I’m always attentive to their behavior and needs. I also provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hey! Thanks for taking the time to get to know me. I am a lifelong dog lover, having owned small medium and large breeds since childhood and throughout my life. From Dachshunds, to Dalmatians, to Great Danes and Rhodesians, I have vast experience with all dog sizes and strengths; As well as the psychology and temperament that accompanies each breed, and the necessary handling and demeanor. The time spent as a Veterinary technicians assistant in college means I'm also familiar with some basic dog first aid (doggy first aid kit with me), as well as know what to look for and asist in order to make sure each breed is comfortable (ex. larger and or longer breeds may have hip dysplasia or other difficulties). Having spent every summer on a large farm with over 10 dogs, I not only seem to have a second sense for dog behavior, but understand their psychology in a group situation, the hierarchy involved, as well as the need for a sense of security and comfort. I am the one my friends call to come help train their dogs, or even accompany them on a hike in case some first aid is necessary. Moreover three of my close friends are veterinary doctors, whom I speak with daily, and are a great source for any information needed. I have extensive experience with both young puppies, and older dogs who may or may not have some incontinence or other medical issues. I am very familiar with dogs with special needs, as my own previous dog was partially paralyzed, and required medication. At the end of the day, I just love dogs and want them to be as happy and healthy as possible, including cooking custom meals :) I work remotely and at my own pace, so dogs always come first. There is a well groomed dog park across the street that we can go to at any moments notice. I have a dog proofed home, with a very friendly and submissive doggy to keep yours company. I have a ring doorbell camera that monitors the only entrance/exit; There is a very nice fenced dog park across the street with a dog agility course. There are pleanty of dog toys, chews and treats. The dogs are welcome on all the furniture, with a dedicated TV playing doggyTV in the background.

About: I have years of professional experience working in veterinary hospitals caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. My veterinary background has made me comfortable with senior pets, puppies, medication needs, special needs, and recognizing when something just isn’t quite right. I’m also a lifelong dog owner and understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pets. I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your dog like one of my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my day. I’m primarily available on weekdays for walks and drop-in visits, with flexibility depending on your pet’s routine and needs. I have years of experience working in veterinary hospitals, so your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I follow each pet’s normal routine and your specific instructions, including feeding, medications, walks, and any special needs. I’ll treat your pet and home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own.

About: I have spent majority of my life caring for a wide range of animals from dogs and cats to ducks, rodents, and reptiles. I have one beagle who loves playing with others and we would love some company for our walks and adventures. I am acclimated to cats and dogs of all ages, I am used to giving medications (including allergy injections) and pets with food sensitivities. If you have a fur baby that needs some exercise or company, my beagle and I would love to meet them for either a casual stroll through a neighborhood, a trail walk through the woods, or even for short visits to dog parks followed by soapy baths. Let me know what your pet needs are and I am happy to accommodate. On weekdays, I am available 3-7:30 most afternoons. If I am going to your home and your home happens to be near my work place, I may also occasionally be able to pop in for a short visit 9:45-10:30. At my home: Your dog has options. I have a puppy proofed kitchen that has access to a dog door with a fenced in yard. This space is separated from the rest of my home via a doggy gate and is a wonderful space where I leave my pup to play during the day while I am at work. This space has continual access to water, dog beds, toys, and the fenced in yard. Additionally, if there is a fur friend that is in need of a more private secluded space, I also have 2 medium dog crates with soft blankets and chewies. The crates will limit your pups interactions and protect them while I am away from the household for work. When I am home, the dogs will be with me throughout my entire house, they will be brought on walks, fun outdoor adventures, played with, fed, pet, they can sleep in the bed or on the floors, and they can be bathed if necessary. We can even take car rides to go out on fun hikes if you are interested in your dog having access to opportunities like that (they are our favorite.) They will continually have a beagle playmate happy to have companionship. Cats will have a secluded room to stay in, as they are often more sensitive to new spaces, and they will get plenty of snuggles and affection each day in their own private room. At your home: I will arrive in the afternoons with my beagle to play with your pups and to go on walking adventures. I can follow whatever particular protocols you have in place for your dogs, their food/med routines, etc. We will play together and spend time outside on adventures. I can take your pup with me in my car to go on hikes or we can keep the visit completely local. For cats, my dog will not come with me and I will enter the home to address whatever needs your cat may have, whether it be cleaning litter boxes or giving cans of wet food.

About: I’ve grown up with animals in the house my whole life! Both dogs and cats! I love walking my moms dog max, he’s the perfect amount of energetic and laid back all in one! Pet sitting I’ve been doing for awhile too, usually I’ll throw in a walk everyday, play a little, give them lots of love! Animals have always loved me, I’m very laid back, athletic, caring, and affectionate when it comes to the cute fur balls out there. I’m assertive when it comes to commands and dogs have always listened to me... cats on the other hand, you know, they have a mind of their own haha. I would love to be your sitter/ dog walker any day of the week! - Abbie

About: Hello! My name is Svetlana.
I have over 6 years of experience working with animals — both cats and dogs. I am responsible, attentive, and caring. My goal is to provide your pet with comfort, safety, and individualized attention in a loving home environment. BOARDING Please read the following information carefully before booking. 1. Pets in the Home
I have an intact male Cocker Spaniel and a Maine Coon cat living in my home.
For this reason, I do not accept unspayed females. 2. Number of Pets
I accept pets from ONE family at a time — maximum two dogs.
I do not host pets from multiple families at the same time so I can give my full attention to your pet. 3. Required Documentation
Before confirming your booking, I require proof from a licensed veterinarian of: * Rabies vaccination * DHPP vaccination * Date of the most recent deworming treatment 4. Dog Size and Breeds
I accept small and medium-sized dogs of all breeds. Dogs over 40 pounds are accepted ONLY if they are f they are friendly with other dogs and cats. 5. Walks and Daily Routine.
I only work 16–20 hours per week, so I am able to easily provide three 30-minute walks per day: * 7:30–8:00 AM * 1:30–2:00 PM * 7:30–8:00 PM This schedule allows me to give your pet plenty of attention and keep them under close supervision throughout the day. If you are boarding a puppy, I can adjust my schedule to provide walks every 2 hours (until 10:00 PM). Longer walks can be arranged separately.
There is a 4-mile trail near my home where we enjoy walking during the spring and fall. 6. Medications
I can administer oral medications if prescribed by a veterinarian.
I do not administer injections. 7. My home is always clean, odor-free, and smoke-free — I believe this is essential for your pet’s health and well-being. 8. I also send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in caring hands. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your pup or kitty, providing love, attention, and companionship from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. 🐾 As an experienced animal carer who truly considers pets family, I’m great with cats and small- to medium-sized dogs. I’m also a responsible pet sitter who will always be reachable and happy to send plenty of pictures of your furry ones.

About: I have loved dogs my whole life, but when I adopted a senior dog in college I truly fell in love and spoiled her with walks, pets, and coordinated outfits! I have dog sat for the numerous dogs in my family as well. I am a student with a variable schedule and don’t have the resources for my own dog at this time, so I would love to help you with yours:) I am a student with a variable schedule! Right now I am working 2-3 12 hour shifts per week and have the other days completely off! I believe in treating all things with respect especially when it comes to other people’s loved ones and belongings. I work in the medical field and find a lot of joy in taking care of others which extends to animals as well.

She was also kind enough to come over for a short meet-and-greet beforehand so that our dog would be familiar with her. If another time comes where we need a drop-in sitter, we’ll absolutely be using Nikki again!”

About: Hi! I was a dog groomer for the last 10 years and have learned nearly everything there is to know about both cats and dogs. I also have some vet tech experience thrown in there too. I have experience in giving medicines, vaccines, or whatever else your pet may need during their stay, including any grooming needs! I have been dog sitting since I was 14, and many clients have turned into family to me. There is nothing more special to me than creating a bond with your pet so that they still feel at home even with their parent being away. I recently switched careers to a full time office job, and now have a more lenient work setting where I can bring dogs to work! This way your pup can get exercise, go for walks, and play with other coworkers dogs throughout the entire day. I promise to you, your dog(s) will feel safe, loved and at home when being around me and my dogs. I am almost always available, and at home evenings and weekends for walks. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I have recently switched to a lighter and more lenient full time office job where I can bring pets with me to work! This way, your pup will never be alone during the day, get to go for walks & potty breaks, and get to run around and play with other coworkers dogs. I am home on weekends and evenings for walks and drop ins. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room to get some exercise. Your dog(s) will always have an eye on them to make sure they are happy and healthy at all times.

About: I've been cat and dog sitting since 2016, staying at friends and family members' homes to provide care for pets while they're away. From that experience, I've learned about feeding, walking, and giving attention to each pet's needs. I'm always curious to learn more about them and being a reliable pet sitter for the family. I also like to volunteer at the local animal shelter. I work fully remote as a web designer. Sometimes, I go in the office if needed, but my schedule is flexible. I just need a heads up at least 3+ days prior to make sure it works with my schedule. I prefer to stay at the client's home while they're away, so the pets can stay comfortable in their familiar space and get attention during the day.

Sofia was great!! There was a mixup with addresses in the system and she did not hesitate to turn around and go to the right address, which was 15 minutes the opposite way that she went. She made sure my pup went out, got his meds, and was back happy inside. Definitely recommend her!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Broadlands is $24 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $33 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 of November 2026, there are 14,451 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Broadlands. 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;

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.

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 Broadlands 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 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.

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 Broadlands 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 Broadlands. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.

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.
