“Timea was a great pet sitter! Communication was excellent, and her daily reports were very detailed, giving me total peace of mind while away. She was super accommodating with our schedule and needs. I would rebook with her in a heartbeat and highly recommend her!”
About: I LOVE dogs of all types, especially medium to large breeds that love to walk. I have owned multiple dogs at one time and we live in a great location, by the river with lots of trails & dog friendly walking terrain. We have a fully fenced yard with lots of room to roam, allowing for frisbee & ball play time keeping the pups & humans engaged. Your fur friend will not be alone & we will offer free pets, walks & play time, as we have a pup as well who is Mr. Social! I’m currently working part time as a fitness coach close by & sub teacher & generally home most of the time. I love medium to large dogs, but just recently lost our 17 year old little dog. I have a fully fenced yard and always monitor our dogs outside. Inside, we use a fenced off area to keep dogs out of kitchen & downstairs. I prefer no dogs on furniture and up to date on vaccines.
“Rachel Angela was wonderful to work with! She accommodated a last minute request to check in on my 4.5 month old puppy and followed all our instructions. She has been very punctual and responsive. We will continue to use her in the future!”
“Christian took amazing care of Shifu! He looked after him for 5 days and was prompt, reliable and thoughtful. I got regular photo updates every day, which really put me at ease when I was away. I’d absolutely book Christian again without hesistation. Highly recommend.”
“This was our third time hiring Silvana to pet sit for us over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier with the way she takes care of our cat and pet ducks. She clearly follows all care directions, is very gentle and kind to our pets, and is dependable with great communication. Silvana consistently goes above and beyond. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone!”
“Lindsay was wonderful with our very particular/anxious/stressed kitty!! She was incredibly patient with her and respected her boundaries and space. She followed all of our instructions for care and was very communicative with us. She left great rover cards and took lots of photos. We knew our cat was in great hands while we were out of the country. Will definitely book with her again! She is reliable and overall a great sitter!”
“We had a fantastic experience! Communication was excellent throughout our trip, with regular updates and plenty of pictures that gave us peace of mind. Zane clearly had a great time, and it was obvious he was well cared for. Everything we requested was handled exactly as discussed, and our sitter even went above and beyond by helping with a few house-related tasks while we were away, which we really appreciated. Our sitter was also very attentive to Zane’s needs and didn’t hesitate to reach out with questions or concerns when appropriate, which showed a genuine level of care and professionalism. We came home to a happy dog and a well-looked-after home. Zero complaints, we would absolutely book again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative, and caring pet sitter.”
“Mindy dropped in to care for our little pups. They were very flexible in doing a quick meet & greet, communicated great and our pups warmed right up to them! 5/5 - will be booking again!”
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life, and caring for pets has always been a passion of mine. I have a 4-year-old Border Collie who means the world to me, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I spent over a year working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. My responsibilities included supervising playgroups, feeding meals, administering medications, cleaning kennels, and making sure every dog was safe, comfortable, and happy throughout the day - and overnight if boarding. I now work at a small local pet store, where I’ve continued expanding my knowledge of pet care, nutrition, and enrichment. I love using my experience to provide attentive, compassionate care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs. I currently work part-time which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to offer drop-in visits and walks throughout the week depending on your pets schedule. Every pet is unique, so I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their normal routines as closely as possible. Whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, medications, or simply getting loved on and spoiled, I’ll provide attentive, compassionate care tailored to your pet’s needs. I also understand how important peace of mind is, so I am more than happy to send photo updates and messages during each visit!
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care. I also have experience with cats and a variety of animals. Over the years, I've cared for everything from iguanas to ferrets and truly enjoy working with animals of all kinds. I currently work part-time, typically during the mornings, which leaves the rest of my day flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide attentive care, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, feeding, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I have a lifelong love of animals and enjoy making them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. During our meet and greet, I'll take the time to learn about your pet's routine, needs, personality, and any special quirks or preferences. My goal is to provide consistent, attentive care that helps your pet feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you're away.
About: I grew up around cats, dogs and hamsters. We have had 2 boxers previously, one of which I have cared for through his late senior years, so I know what extra special care senior animals may need. I am comfortable diaper-changing, walking a their pace and administering medications. I have experience house-sitting and pet-sitting for various pets throughout my life — mostly cats and dogs. My son currently has a Leopard Gecko, so I have some insight into caged reptiles too, but am willing to learn more and care for them too, if needed. I am a Stay-at-Home-Mom with an open schedule. I can easily fit in dog walks, or house-visits to care for a pet. (I have a 1.5 year old daughter who will mostly like need to come with me on these visits.) You can trust me to walk your pet or come pop-in for a visit to feed and care for them. I love all animals and am happy to help them feel loved and less alone while you're gone.
“Cynthia was fantastic! Very friendly and kept our cat happy and healthy. Lots of photos which was great, and she is great at communicating and sending updates. Couldn’t be happier!”
“Thank you, Ashlei for SAVING THE DAY(s)! Great communication, trust worthy, on time, and flexible! The dogs were so grateful to have someone come by and let them out and spend time with them while I was away for work, thank you so much!”
About: No time spent with a pet is wasted! I love animals so much, and am super accommodating to the type of attention they want. My cats and dog are so important to me-as I imagine yours are to you-so I’d love to help take care of yours while you’re away! I am currently working freelance roles, so my availability is very open and flexible. This means I’m happy to accommodate yours pets usual routine times. Pets are so special. I will provide both a calming and/or energetic presence depending on their personality. I’m very reliable and on-time, and will make sure your pets needs and wants are met!

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Carnation on Rover is $27.82 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Carnation stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
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 Carnation. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
