“Leah did a wonderful job taking care of our kitty while we were away. Showed up on time, and our Elric gained weight while we were away, so she obviously fed him well. Look forward to engaging her again for future catsitting.”
“Rebecca took care of my cats over eight days while I was on vacation. She arrived promptly every day and took great care of them, feeding and cleaning the litter boxes. She sent daily photos and videos showing them at play. I am very happy with Rebecca and highly recommend her. I will use her again whenever I go away for an extended period of time. Thank You, Rebecca.”
“Our first experience with Alyssa was fantastic. Our sweet Leo boy quickly warmed up to her and was clearly excited about her daily visits. She was very communicative, thoughtful and sent reports/photos, which gave us such peace of mind. We will definitely reach out again.”
“Carrie was the absolute best choice when it came to finding someone to take care of my (not so sweet) kitty. The updates provided were hilarious, and I could tell that Carrie really put in the time to try and let Kitty warm up to her. BONUS POINTS: While I was away, we were hit with terrible storms. Carrie not only found a way to get to Kitty, but she also took it upon herself to clean up the water that came into my living room so there wasn’t damage to my hardwood floors. She moved out my furniture, found towels to dry up the water, and kept me informed. That is above and beyond, I am so grateful! I would highly recommend Carrie to anyone and will absolutely use her again in the future. Thank you Carrie!”
“Korine was BEYOND amazing with my elderly and sick dog. I wish I could give her a million stars. She gave her all of her many daily medicines and walked her at her own (very slow lol) pace. I felt horrible leaving my girl but Korine kept me very comforted with constant check-in messages, pictures, and videos- it was almost as if I was still at home myself. My dog made a great friend in Korine and loved her company very much. 🥰 I could tell she was extremely and genuinely loved and cared for which put my mind and heart at ease being away from her. Thank you!!!”
About: I grew up with pets, sit for friends & fam, and volunteered & fostered at a rescue shelter in Chicago. Love to love on friends and family pets; I'm flexible and kind. I have a 6 year old rescue and 2 year old puppy. Allabamma's is a catahoula mix (the rescue).) Archee; the puppy, is an active guy! At this time, I’m only doing drop ins and walks; maybe a short overnight stay I am open to in your home w/ a meet up first. We can chat about it. Hope to hear from you soon! I work 8:30-5:30 M-F, every other Sat 10-4 and free after church on Sunday. If you request walks/drop ins, I can do anything before 8 a.m., walk on my lunch hour if you're close to me in Carlisle, and after 5:30 until about 10pm. I'm in an apartment, but we have an area for potty and the community is super pet friendly and nice for walking around. I'm in a two-bedroom and it's spacious, lots of light. (Not taking pets in our home just yet as of Oct 2026)
“Anna was a wonderful gift to caring for my senior dog. She came over on an additional day, just to learn about all of the complexities involved. She corresponded well with me while I was on the other side of the country. It helped keep my anxiety over my beloved pet way down! Anna is professional and detail oriented, and I would gladly hire her again.”
“Jaime is wonderful! She is so communicative, thoughtful and most importantly, gave our dog lots of love and care. She was super flexible when I changed plans on her last minute. So grateful to have her support!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I could remember. I’ve taken care of my families, friends, neighbors. I’ve bathed them, fed them, taken them out, and more. I used to work at a dog boarding and doggie day care. I am very flexible and can work around any schedule and pets schedules. I like to make sure pets in my care are comfortable by sticking to a schedule. I have a big yard for my dog to play in. My dog is a big love bug, who just wants to play. Usually I take care of my family’s dogs at their houses which have fenced in areas.
“Rachel was amazing. Our three dogs were well taken care and we received frequent updates. She went above and beyond to not only care for the dogs but also in looking after the house during our trip.”
“Angela and Ken are simply amazing! They sent adorable pictures of their visits and with all the tail wagging and kisses, I knew that they were the perfect pet sitters for my fur babies! I will most certainly use them again!”
About: I really like to meet animals where they are. If they are high energy and love to play then that is what we will be doing. If they are a lounge on the couch kind of dog then I will lay with them. I currently have one dog and I have been able to teach him many tricks like roll and high five! I also have 3 cats who keep me busy but in a good way! I have dog sat before many times but I am excited to meet new animals on Rover. I work full time on the weekdays from 7:45-4. I would also be able to be at your home for a few minutes during my lunch break depending on the location. I have full availability Friday night - Sunday night I always make sure that I am following their routine and doing things the way that you would do them! I will ask any questions if I have them to make sure I am doing everything right. The animals would never be able to escape as I am very careful with doors and I always wrap leashed around my wrist for a second layer of protection
“Kari was an absolute rockstar Petsitter. Our kitty has diabetes, so he needs his insulin shot daily within a specific time period. Kari was on time every day and sent photos throughout our whole 2 week trip. Not only did she take great care of our cat, but she made she to take the trash out and keep everything straightened so the house didn’t smell like we’d been gone for a while. We will absolutely request her for future trips!”
“FIVE STARS! My SO and I needed someone to pop in and check on our cats Binx and Cameron. They have a habit of eating each other's food (mostly Cam) and we wanted to make sure no one was going hungry. While originally we had only planned for Julia to stop once, in a rush while we were leaving we were worried one of the kitties got shut in a room so asked if she could stop by the day after we left. She was able to accommodate our request and make sure the boys were good. It's awesome to know your fur babies are in good hands when out of town! Thanks Julia! Recommended!”
About: I love all dogs regardless of how hyper or chilled out your pet is. As a student Athlete, I can completely match your dog's energy. I can ensure that you and your pet will look forward to booking with me again. I work in an office in midtown Manhattan from 9-5 Monday-Friday, besides that I'm generally available to give the rest of my evening to other things, considering I have no commitments for my internship outside the office. How I care for other pets completely depends on the animal I'm looking after. Making sure to reciprocate whatever the dog is showing is the priority in most cases.
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Carlisle is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Carlisle
Amy was wonderful with my dog! We hired her to drop in and also to take our dog for a short walk and she was great. She arrived on time and was very loving to our old dog. She also snuggled him on the couch, played with him outside and left us a message on how he did. It was great to have someone that would show him all the love when we could not be there.
Lesly was fantastic! She was always prompt, reliable, and very communicative, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. Our two dogs absolutely loved her and quickly looked forward to their twice-daily walks. We appreciated the updates and could tell our pups were happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Lesly to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!
Caroline has been great with our puppy! We have used her regularly the past couple of weeks on days my husband and I both work. She has been reliable and consistent, sends us photos and takes time to engage in playtime. She responds quickly to our messages and has been flexible with bookings. We would definitely recommend her!
Very short notice, Elizabeth was able to come to my aid with my 2 dogs. She did everything exactly as she promised, and then some. My one dog was too afraid of her, which is not Elizabeth's fault, it was my woosie dog. She was great and I appreciate what she did for me.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Carlisle is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $14 and $22 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 October 2026, there are 1,148 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Carlisle. 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 .
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 , 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 Carlisle. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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.
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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
