“Thank you so much for the drop-ins over the weekend, and for the photos you sent! I know Momo must have been absolutely thrilled to see you again :) Until next time!!”
“Jasmin is simply the best! She takes away any worry we would have when we are away from our cat and loves him like he is her own. Her report cards are thorough and adorable. She takes the best pictures too!”
“Cornell did such a wonderful job with my dog Biggie, he’s a year and a half old and has lots of energy! He went on walks and got to play with other dogs! I will definitely hire Cornell again and highly recommend him! He even came for a meet and greet before our scheduled visits, put my nerves at ease! Wonderful experience!!”
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and it’s something I genuinely love doing. I’ve always been a dog person and having a dog of my own for many years taught me how much joy, comfort and personality they add to a home. That experience shaped the way I care for every pet I meet — with patience, attention and the same affection I’d give to my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all temperaments and energy levels and make sure each one feels safe, relaxed and understood. Whether it’s keeping up with their routines, giving them plenty of playtime or just being a calm presence, I’m committed to making their time with me happy and stress‑free. Your pet will always be treated like family. Pet care fits easily into my weekly routine. I’m home consistently, have a flexible schedule, and make time every day for walks, play, and check‑ins. I enjoy having pets around, so giving them attention and keeping them on their routine is something I naturally build into my day. I follow whatever routine your pet is used to — feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep a close eye on them and send regular updates so you always know how they’re doing. Whether in your home or mine, I make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and getting plenty of attention.
“When we returned for vacation, I noticed that my dog was well-trained. It seems that I not only hired a pet sitter but also a pat trainer. My neighbor informed me of her exceptional skills with my dog. Now they like to have her as pat sitter as well. She was very responsive and on time every time”
“Eva was great! We really appreciated the photos & reports that came with each visit, and our kitty seemed to really enjoy the attention Eva gave her. She’s dependable and a great communicator. We will certainly engage her again in the future!”
“Dymond took absolutely fantastic care of Justin. She is thorough, asks great questions, and you can tell she genuinely cares. I received a detailed Rover Card each day with the cutest pics, which put my mind at ease while leaving my kitty at home for a week. We will be rebooking the next time we are away and cannot recommend Dymond enough!”
“Excellent! Ken was responsive, friendly, reliable and accommodating. He took care of the food and water for our cat, collected mail for us and even retrieved an unexpected package delivered while we were on vacation. Definitely recommend.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs among friends and neighbors for years. I love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel comfortable, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. Also, my schedule allows me to be home most of the day, which means frequent potty breaks, plenty of supervision, and lots of one-on-one attention! I have a flexible schedule and am home most of the day. Caring for pets is already a regular part of my life, so providing walks, playtime, feeding, medication administration, potty breaks, and plenty of attention throughout the day is easy to incorporate into my schedule. Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine carefully, maintain a clean, calm environment, and treat every dog like a member of my own family.
“This is the second time that Rebecca has looked after my cat and she was amazing. My extremely shy cat was comfortable enough to let Rebecca see her, and partway through the week a big snowstorm hit and Rebecca travelled through the snow and made sure my cat was safe and comfortable. I would absolutely hire her to look after my cat again.”
“We hired Isabella to watch our two Boston Terriers for the weekend. She went above and beyond what was required to care for our older dogs. I would definitely hire her again.”
About: I am a huuuugee animal fan. I love fur-babies of all sizes and temperaments. I can accommodate almost any sort of schedule and type of boarding; I am pretty flexible. I do everything possible with my baby girl, Rue - a golden doodle of my own whose biggest flaw is that she wants to be everyone's friend, including the cats she grew up with (so I’m sure she'll get along with your pup or cat just great). I have spent some time working in a vet hospital and in a wildlife rescue as well as personal sitting gigs for friends and family - you can trust my care with your pup! I have a condo that can accommodate dogs of all sizes AND everything is doggy-proof. My complex has a very large grassy courtyard and a lake trail less than half a mile away. I am a fairly active individual and will have no problem getting your pup out and playing outdoors or long trail adventures if that’s what they need! I currently work from home and the schedule is flexible - so I am available throughout the day. For visits/walks only, I can accommodate she what your pup needs depending on the drive to get there. 7 days a week In previous pet care jobs, I’ve usually stayed overnight with the pups. I can spend time with them, enriching them with play time or training. I have never had a cause for a health or safety concern in the 6 years I have pet sit and I plan on keeping that intact. My experience in a vet office gives me the knowledge or medication administration if needed, what a true emergency may look like, and how to triage an emergency if one should arise.
“Watching my cat clan is basically a full-time job, so I’m impressed! 😂 Alexis handled all of their different personalities, attitudes, and general cat chaos like a pro. I got updates, everyone was happy and well cared for, and my house was still standing when I got back — a win all around! I would absolutely book again and definitely recommend her to anyone.”
About: I’ve been walking dogs for over 10 years. Whichever base I’m assigned to, I always volunteer at an animal shelter or an animal hotel. I love early morning runs with my own fur baby, it would be a pleasure to have your pup join us. I can even make time for a fun game of fetch. I currently work full time, but I’m open for dog walks in the morning, afternoon, and on the weekends. If I’m around on the holidays, I’ll have my schedule open during the week. If we do decide to stop by my house during our walks, I have a fenced yard and lots of space for a quick game of fetch! For daycare and boarding, I will have eyes on your fur baby 24/7.
“Jay is wonderful with my dogs. They are always so happy when he shows up and my little one eats better for him than she does me. Lol. It's so wonderful to come home to healthy happy dogs who didn't have to be kenneled because we went away. Jay is a Godsend in our busy lives and I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting great care for their babies.”
About: My genuine love for fur babies of all ages and my attention to their individual needs! We match energy 🤗 I’m reliable, communicative, and committed to keeping your pet safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m also comfortable administering medications, following specific routines, and sending plenty of photo updates to keep you in the loop! I am currently employed full time but I am pretty flexible during the weekends & I have availability after 6pm on weekdays depending on your location! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment! I follow your pet’s routine closely—meals, walks, playtime, and any medications—so they feel secure and stress-free.
“Adrienne was amazing, especially for filling in at the last minute for another sitter. She sent updates with pictures, and the pets were happy and well cared for when I arrived home!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Clarksburg is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $33 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 16,518 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clarksburg. 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 Clarksburg. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
