“Karen was so friendly and accommodating. We had never used a cat sitter before and she was so great to walk us through it. She showed up, was punctual, and interactive with the cats. We got updates and pictures each day. I would recommend Karen to anyone who asked ☺️”
“Lily was excellent when it came to our two dogs. We requested a drop in visit with a fairly short notice and she was very accommodating! She asked lots of questions to get to know them better during the meet and greet. On the scheduled visit day, she took our pups out for a walk and a bathroom break while also playing and cuddling with them. Lily was easy to communicate with and made our pups feel special. 🙂🐶”
“Tammy was so great with our 5 month old puppy. She came for a meet and greet beforehand which was great and Penny loved her. She sent us so many pictures on the day of and provided updates along the way! It was a smooth and easy process! Highly recommend Tammy!”
“Awesome job looking after my 3 fur babies Lindsay. I feel no stress knowing you're taking care of them: feeding, playing, watering and cleaning the litters. The pictures you send shows me that they are very comfortable with you now. Again much thanks!”

About: I've had dogs and cats since I was little. I have a 3 year old Dutch Sheppard who plays very well 1 on 1 with all sizes of dogs. I have a fully fenced in back yard for playing. And we go on long walks daily. I will cater your dog's experience to what their needs are, and any discussions we have during our meet and greet. Weather your dog is laid back and just needs a bit of activity time, an opportunity to get out if the house for a little, or you've got a pup who needs to go on a good run, play fetch, or have a playdate to burn off some energy and socialize. I have a fenced in back yard for playing and have multiple local conservation areas that I like to frequent for extended excursions in a more naturalized environment. Or, of course, we can just go on a nice long walk around the block in your neighborhood. Whatever your pet's needs are, just let me know. Your pets will be treated with the same love, care, and respect that I treat my own. There will be fresh water on hand at all times. And treats if they are allowed. I am comfortable providing oral medications and simple injections, and have experience doing so. I work from home, and my work is flexible to the extent that I am able to make time during the day for playdates, walks, and excursions as needed. I live within 10 minutes of local walking trails, and have access to a vehicle that allows me to drive out to other conservation areas and parks in the surrounding area. I enjoy hiking and kayaking, and as a result have learned of many fun locations to take my dog on enjoyable adventures. A have a fully fenced in yard for playdates, and a furnished basement downstairs with room for play if the weather is bad. Your dogs will always remain under my direct supervision, and they will be treated with the same love and care I would provide my own. There will always be clean water available for refreshment, as well as treats or snacks provided they are allowed to have them. If I am visiting your house, I will treat your space with the utmost respect. I am capable of bringing my own leashes and poop bags for walks, but of couse am happy to use anything you provide.
About: My dad is a retired veterinarian and we always had a dog (or three) at home growing up. One of my first jobs as a young teenager was dog walking and house sitting for a dog. In my early 20s, I used to manage a dog kennel, with 15+ adult dogs and many puppies under my care, with the help of a dedicated human team. Health checks, administering medications, day-to-day care, etc. I have volunteered at a wildlife sanctuary for one summer. I helped care for a large variety of native animals, including turtles, squirrels, birds, etc. I took part in cleaning, feeding and some first aid. I had my most-beloved dog, named Koda, who had Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. I protected his quality of life to the best of my abilities and treated many of his minor injuries myself until one major incident took him from me. I currently have a six year old miniature dachshund, Scarlet, and a four year old golden doodle, Teddy. My husband owns and runs a bird control and conservation business. He currently has two birds of prey on his team that I help out with on occasion. I am confident I can care for most types of animals. I will care for your animals like they are my family too. I’m a stay-at-home mom who helps out with my husband’s bird control and conservation business as needed. I have a two year old who can stay with my husband or his parents during my animal support for you. I grew up with horses, pot-bellied pigs, dogs, cats, even lambs at one point. I am detail-oriented and have learned from a young age about making sure doors and gates are open and immediately shut to keep all animals safe and where they need to be. I am familiar with crating animals as needed, having crated my own dogs and worked in a kennel.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my entire life! I currently have 3 cats and 2 dogs that are spoiled! have owned cats, dogs, bunnies and even a pot bellied pig! I currently work full time! Monday to Friday, however I am available to do drop ins before work, after work & before bedtime! I am also available all day weekends! I provide calm, attentive in‑home care that keeps your pet’s routine steady and their environment stress‑free. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding and litter care to playtime, enrichment, and any special needs. I move at your pet’s pace—whether they’re social, shy, or somewhere in between—so they feel safe and respected in their own space. My goal is to maintain the comfort of home while giving your pet reliable companionship and thoughtful care, so you can be away with complete peace of mind.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Belleville
Lily was amazing! My zoo was well cared for. Usually I am a bit anxious leaving my animals in the care of someone else, but she made me feel comfortable from the start and I didn't worry once. It was nice to be able to relax while away. We will definitely use Lily again in the future. I highly recommend her for your animal care needs!
Gabrielle is absolutely wonderful! She is reliable, caring, and my cat, Airie, is always so comfortable with her. She does an amazing job mixing Airie’s wet food with her medication and is always so attentive to her needs. I also really appreciate all the photos and updates she sends while we’re away! This is the second time Gabrielle has watched Airie, and we would trust her with her anytime. We’re so grateful to have found someone we can rely on!
Rigel took such good care of our girls, even when one was feeling under the weather! She sent photos, videos, and detailed updates. I felt very comfortable with her coming to my house to take the dogs for walks or for drop in visits. She was very professional and very good with dogs. We will defiantly book again!
Tammy was wonderful with my shy cat Beans who never comes out to meet people. During our meet and greet Tammy was able to connect with Beans and put us both at ease. Tammy was very accommodating when I had to change the date and kept me well informed. I would definitely recommend her!
Fantastic sitter and lovely person! Rhonda went above and beyond for our little senior Ferret Mochi. He requires special care for his feedings and she was able to perfectly follow all instructions and give him everything he needed and more. His litterbox changes required daily also need to be done in a certain way, which she attended to flawlessly. He was perfectly well cared for and given much love and attention, as well as our kitty Kirito. Rhonda went above and beyond all of our expectations and was the best pet sitter we could have hoped for! I would highly recommend Rhonda to others for any of your pet sitting needs. You can rest assured your pets will be well taken care of!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Belleville is $31 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $22 and $44 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.
There are 101 sitters on Rover for Pet Sitting in Belleville. About 87% of Belleville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
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.
You can coordinate how much supervision you want directly with your sitter. While every sitter’s schedule varies, here are some examples of supervision by pet care service:
- Boarding or doggy day care: Many sitters can provide frequent companionship because they design their day specifically around the pets in their care or work from home.
- House sitting: Your sitter generally stays in your home for the requested duration, which may include overnight care. They may step out briefly to visit other pet clients, but your home remains their primary base.
- Drop-in visits or dog walking: These can be scheduled in 30- or 60-minute windows (and can be shorter or longer at your request) to help your pet receive dedicated attention and care during those specific times.
Interested in constant or 24/7 care? This service often incurs an additional fee but many sitters are happy to discuss this option with you.
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 Belleville 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 do not have any disqualifying offences.
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.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
Payment is handled securely through Rover. For a one-time booking, your payment method is charged at the time of checkout when you submit your booking request. This charge will include fees payable to Rover. Your booking is confirmed once the sitter accepts it.
If the request is not accepted, the pending charge is released in 1-7 days. How long it takes to disappear from your account depends on your payment provider.
For eligible recurring weekly services, you are charged for the first week when you book and then each Monday for the upcoming week. You’ll see the full price before you confirm. Always pay through Rover so your booking remains eligible for the Rover Guarantee and support.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. On Rover:

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.
