“Christen did such an amazing job taking care of our dog and cat! I really appreciated the walks and photos. I definitely felt that Mango and Virgo were getting great care with Christen, allowing for me and my girls to have a wonderful vacation.”
“David and Lauren were wonderful with Max! Very communicative, and lots of updates on how he was doing. I had a last minute change of plans, and another quick trip to book and they were extremely flexible and accommodating. I felt very good leaving Max in their hands while I was gone.”
“Kaylee is phenomenal!!! This was our first booking and already have another lined up. She’s extremely thorough in getting to know your pet and makes sure any info/instructions are followed. Great communication and she writes the best report card updates, not to mention snaps the most adorable pics. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 definitely recommend! 🤗”

About: I’ve always been a devoted animal lover & owner, even as a young child. I am always making time for my 2 dogs, as well as all of my friends & family’s pets. I am a trusted pet sitter and am always the one who is in mind for dog siting as i enjoy giving my time and love to pets - even ones that arent mine💗🐶 I have 2 dogs and help care for my grandparent’s cat. I tend to my animals on a regular basis & take them for adventures whenever possible. I offer in-home pet care tailored to your pet’s individual needs and routine. I would care for your pets in the comfort of their own home, including drop-in visits, short stays, walks, feeding and fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention! I’m comfortable caring for **multiple pets, puppies, and senior pets**, and I’m happy to help keep their space clean, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. I can also reinforce basic training and work on teaching new commands and good habits. **My availability:** 🐶 Monday–Thursday: Available before 9:30 AM and after 4 PM 🐶 Friday–Sunday: Available throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pets feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while giving you peace of mind when you can’t be there. 💕
“OMG David was absolutely the best! I left my lil big doggy in the hands of David, while out of town and was overjoyed that I could relax knowing that he was getting great care! My big boy was still in high spirits when I returned, as if I never left! David was super accomadating and very polite. Not to mention the wealth of knowledge that David possessed about dogs and their mannerisms was superrr comforting! Thank you so much again David!”
“Olivia did an outstanding job with our labs. She came over for a pre-visit to get to know them and we knew immediately it was a perfect fit! She interacted with our VERY active boys and they were sad to see her leave. She was very professional, arrived on time, and went above and beyond of what was asked of her. Would definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve grown up around multiple pets my whole life and truly love being around animals. Some people even call me the “pet whisperer” because I’m very patient and naturally connect well with pets. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making animals feel as comfortable and loved as possible. I’m also good with shy, picky, sick, senior, or stubborn pets and understand that every pet deserves personalized care and attention. I’m working part time, only a couple days of the week, so pet care is my main priority. days vary on the week but I am very flexible! I will be pet sitting, so in your home I will be clean & respectful of your things, while providing safety and comfort to your pets.
About: I have owned a pet since I was 11 years old. I also have enjoyed rescuing street animals. My first dog was a border collie. I loved training my border collie and going for walks with him! Weekends are always best. I can arrange same day service. I also can bring my own leash and water for the pet when out walking. I prefer to walk pets and care for pets in their home environment or in the community. I rather have the owners suggest the activity thr pet would enjoy.
About: I've been working with dogs for 2+ years and love it, I was a supervisor at a dog daycare and boarding facility back home so I am doggy cpr certified and have certain certifications! I've worked with all different types of dogs ranging from xs breeds to xxl breeds. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, and take care of their animals. I'm currently a stay at home wife so I would love to get out the house and get some puppy love! I am currently pregnant but dr recommend exercise to help with my type 2 diabetes during my pregnancy. I am available M-F between the hours of 11am-5pm weekends vary, but always open to discuss a certain day if needed! I have a fur baby myself. His name is Benji and is 4 years old. We have a pretty decent schedule, we wake up and go for a walk around our apartment complex every morning and then come back inside and relax, he gets his food and nibbles on in throughout the day, we go for another walk around the complex mid day and then he gets taken out again in the evening before bed, he gets treats throughout the day but not too many! We also try to go to the dog park once a week so he can have some off leash play!
About: Part time for Rover but will give you and your baby my full time attention! I love animals and I even used to work at a no-kill Animal Shelter (I don't have veterinarian experience). I've lived on a farm for 10 years and had plenty of pets, exotic and native, so I'm familiar with the oddities that come with the territory of an animal that can't really tell you what's wrong. I own two 6 year old 20lb fur babies myself and they are the friendliest cats you could meet. They love Dogs but if you're pup doesn't like cats that's okay. We can work out dog sitting or taking them for a walk! I can't wait to meet you and your babies! Pick me!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for around 5 years. Just recently became a dog mom, it’s a challenge at times, but all they want is love. I’m currently self employed, so my schedule is very flexible and I can easily move my schedule around to accommodate if necessary for your fur baby. My backyard is fenced. So your baby can roam a little outside. I also have doggy beds/ blankets/ pads. I can also provide food if preferred.
About: I've taken care of all types of cats and dogs, from pets who are well mannered to pets that are born to be in the wild! I have a very flexible work schedule and I am available any time during the day. I am also available for the night shift and weekends. I have several crates, and a large yard to provide exercise to your loved ones. I also have a wide variety of toys and dog food

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Central on Rover is $22.2 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 Central 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 Central. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
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.
