About: Dogs have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them truly comes naturally to me. I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds for years, and friends and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love on their pups like my own. As a dog mom myself, I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, loved, and right at home while they’re with me. I have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout both weekdays and weekends, which allows me to give dogs plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to accommodate boarding, daycare, and drop-offs or pickups as needed, and I do my best to make each pup feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home during their stay. I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level, and I take introductions slowly to help everyone feel safe. I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, potty routines, crate routines, medications, and any care instructions you provide so your pup can have a smooth and stress-free stay. My goal is to make every dog in my care feel secure, loved, and right at home while you’re away.

About: I have cared for my own as well as neighbors dogs in the past from puppy to adulthood. I have 2 dogs of my own that I love just as much as my daughter and truly see pets as part of the family. I have experience in crate training or potty training. I am ready to give your pets what they need. I am available for drop ins and dog walking as I work from home and can easily pop in to help. I usually like to go out for walks or bike riding so taking care of your pets in between would fit well into my schedule. I am super comfortable with dogs and cats. If you have a special bed or toy or blanket that your pet prefers, that is absolutely fine to bring.

“I had a wonderful experience with Caden! He was incredibly kind, attentive, and followed all of my instructions carefully. I really appreciated the thoughtful questions he asked, which showed me that he genuinely wanted to understand Dandelion’s routine and make sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Communication was great throughout her stay, and he sent the most amazing pictures that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I felt confident that Dandelion was in caring and capable hands. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thoughtful, dependable, and caring sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Ingrid, a mom of 4 boys ages 4-13 and a dog owner to a boy Beagle named Otis. I’ve had dogs all my life and love being with them and caring for them! (I even trained Otis from a puppy!) We have a large house in the country on 2.5 acres of land. We LOVE having other dogs stay and visit! Otis and the children are very good with other dogs! Other than taking care of the house and kids, taking care of dogs is my only other job, so your pup will get plenty of needed attention and have lots of fun with us!!! We are on a 2.5 acre property, but no fence, so outside time will be on leash only- (we have long leashes for more freedom to roam). Inside is more flexible with free roam in the main area- very large sunroom, living room, and kitchen. We have a large area for dogs to sleep overnight comfortably either on a dog bed or crate, whichever is preferred.

“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.”

She left a little summary on the rover card of what she did and how Bun was, and included a few photos for each drop in so I could see that Bun was doing well. I would definitely recommend booking Riley!”

About: I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. My experience includes caring for puppies, senior pets, and animals with different personalities and routines.

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!!

Hope always takes great care of our pets, follows our care instructions, and communicates timing and needs. We love having Hope care for our pets when we can’t be home as they are always happy and well cared for when we return. This is not the first time we’ve booked with Hope and it won’t be our last. Thank you, Hope!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Clarksburg

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Clarksburg is $21 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 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 November 2026, there are 16,438 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.

sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
