“Sarah was fabulous! Our first time booking with Rover and with Sarah and the whole experience was amazing. She was great visiting and playing with our cats, and very professional. It gave us such a peace of mind to have her looking after our kitties. She takes great pictures too :). Would definitely book again. Thank you!”
“She did an excellent job. Our dog (Remy) loved her, and when we left he didn't even understand fetch really but when we got back he was happy to play fetch with us. If you want quality care Aaliyah is a good pick! We're really grateful she came through for us!”
“We LOVE Anhelika! She did such a great job watching our pup, Potter! And was super communicative! We will definitely ask her again the next time we go in a trip, and we know potter will be so excited!”

“Tori was amazing, going over and above what we expected. She showed up daily not just to feed and provide the basic care, but staying to keep company with our dog, Jackson. I can’t say enough good things about Tori. We’ll definitely call on her again.”
About: Hi, I’m Giovanni. I'm a dependable beginner dog walker and pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. While I'm just getting started professionally, I am responsible, patient, and committed to giving every pet the care, attention, and kindness they deserve. I’m currently working a full time job so my availability is anytime before 4pm from Tuesday to Saturday. My availability for Sunday-Monday is anytime, open availability. I would like to have a conversation with the specific client to see what their needs and comfort level. Every client is different so understanding my client is best to meet their expectations.
“My three kitties were well taken care of. Luna, my moo cat, loves her. Jean-Luc welcomes her and loves his treats. My third kitty hides regardless of who visits but Alex always gets a picture of her.”
“Kaylie did a great job. Loved the information after each visit and especially the dog pictures. Thank you for taking time out of your Christmas holiday to care for our fur babies!”
“Keri continues to be our go to sitter for our 3 kitties! They absolutely love her and we have so much peace of mind when she comes over. She provides great updates and amazing photos. 💕”
About: I have over 10 years of experience dog sitting and walking both large and small breeds. I am comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, attention, and care. My experience has helped me develop strong animal handling skills and a commitment to keeping pets safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I work part time during the summer as I am home from college, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the day to care for your dog’s needs. I have ample time for walks, playtime, feeding, and providing your pet with the attention and care they deserve. I care for both a large and a small dog at home every day, giving me hands on experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am responsible for feeding, walking, exercising, and making sure they are happy, healthy, and well cared for.
“John-Michael was great! We were a last minute booking and he communicated with me right away. He spent time with our old tabby cat and took great care of her! Will definitely book again!”
About: I have been a dog owner for 30 years. I have also taken care of all kinds of dogs. People have trusted me to take care of their dogs for years. I currently run my son Aden's autism adult work program, leaving me time for a part-time dog walking job. Dog walking is a job that my son and I can do together. I can walk your dog in your neighborhood and I have a fenced-in yard if your dog needs a place to exercise in a safe environment.
“Kelly was amazing! She jumped right in on a last minute need I had. I feel my two cats were well taken care of during my trip. I would highly recommend Kelly. Thank you so much for taking care of Cooper and Sophie and providing me peace of mind. Book Kelly today. :)”

My favorite breeds are boarder collies, Australian shepherds, and labradors 🖤 I currently work full time with the exceptions of Mondays as I am currently also enrolled in college! My best available times are Friday evening- Monday evening after 5:30 pm I have 3 cats, who I give my undivided attention to. I maintain a set schedule when I feed them and adjust as needed and provide the proper grooming care.
About: We used to board rescue german short haired pointer dogs when I was growing up. I have also grown up with different kinds of dogs throughout my life. I have my own dog who I walk at least 2 to 3 times a day. She is a very energetic and active dog that keeps me busy. In the past I have tried my best to care for other people's pets with the same care I would do for my own dog.
About: I have worked with pets since I started working at all. My first job was at a pet store, and since then I have years of experience working in San Diego as a vet assistant and a shelter animal tech at the local humane society. I also have my own wonderful pets and have tons of exotic pet experience as well as cats and dogs from my many jobs over the years. I was also a lab animal tech before too! I love animals of all shapes and sizes and would be happy to take care of yours. Currently I do not have another job and I only plan on going back to school later in the year so I have plenty of free time to care for your pets. I love walking dogs and caring for cats so much. I have walked many kinds of dogs of many different sizes and temperaments especially as an animal caretaker at the behavioral center in the San Diego humane society. Safety is important to me and I will make sure your pets are safe and well cared for.

Genevieve is an AMAZING sitter! My dog, Ruby, is a quirky girl and can be hesitant around new people, but Genevieve was understanding and patient and dropped by a couple times before our trip to make some proper introductions. She was super communicative the entire time we were away and I felt so at ease knowing my Ruby was in good hands. We highly recommend!!!
I hired Samantha through the Rover app for drop-in visits while I was out for work for 12 hours, and she did an amazing job. She arrived on time for every visit, made sure my girls were let out and cared for, and sent thoughtful updates each time, which really put my mind at ease. I was extremely nervous since I had never left my fur babies with a stranger before, but Sarah was wonderful and made the entire experience stress-free. I felt confident knowing they were in great hands. I will absolutely be hiring her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Buckeystown is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $24 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 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 November 2026, there are 5,896 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Buckeystown. 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.
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 Buckeystown 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 Buckeystown 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 Buckeystown. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 92% 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.
