“Sydney has done such a wonderful job with my dog Natalee. She not only lets her out, she gives her lots of pets and love. She also gives her treats and even gives the kitties some treats even though she’s only caring for Natalee. Thank you so much for being there for all my furbabies Sydney!”

“Amber was excellent with my cat. She followed directions exactly, was on time, and my cat warmed up to her to quickly. What was most important to me is following directions, as my cat is very picky with who he is around. Amber followed them exactly. When I came back from my trip, my cat was happy and everything was cleaned up. Recommended.”

About: Animals have been a part of my entire life! My mom always teases me that I should have purchased a farm or became a veterinarian. I've owned my own animals since I was a sophomore in high school. Since 2012, I've volunteered with several rescues trying to save as many animal lives' as possible. It is my passion to care and provide for animals. I want to share this love with your animals! I'm currently working full-time with the availability to board animals. On weekends, school breaks and during the summer, I have availability for doggy day care, walking and boarding. I prefer to provide care within my home. I have three dogs and a cat who are used to animals coming and going all the time. They are extremely social and friendly. My backyard is fairly large and fenced in. I live in a housing track which provides quiet streets for walking opportunities.

About: I've been taking care of and rescuing animals since I was a child with my grandmother. We always had all kinds of lovely creatures running around the house, including a baby raccoon that we rehabilitated and released back into the wild when it was ready to leave the nest! I have experience in caring for pets with special needs and administering meds as needed. I have love and respect for all animals as they are true family members, and I'm looking forward to creating a bond with yours! :) I have a part time job with shorter shifts that range from 3-5 hours a few times per week. Otherwise my schedule is free and I'd love to fill my time with hanging out with your fur or scale babies!! All pets welcome, I have experience with most! :) I have one kitty currently who is always cozy in my bed or eating her fancy food from her bowl that must always be full! Lol! I would love more pets but I cannot due to limited space. This I why I enjoy staying with your pets in the comfort of their own home! I am very patient, affectionate, playful, kind, attentive, and will always be sure your babies receive the attention they need and are well cared for while you're away!

I am willing to accommodate special diets upon your request (all food must be provided). While I do work September-June, I spend most time outside of work at home hanging out around the house. My partner works from home most days, so is often home when I am at work. Your pup will usually have a human around! On days where my partner works away from home, they would be kept in a dog safe room or crate. My home is convenient to 490 and the airport Why I love dog sitting I have always been a lover of animals. I have been a dog owner for much of my life. I love giving my pup an opportunity to play with new pets. He loves it! About my yard Small fenced area for dogs to play freely. Dog will not be allowed in fenced area without 100% supervision. Quiet neighborhood where dog would receive regular walks. Additional info: While I'm not a certified dog trainer, I have a passion for training dogs. I use positive only training methods.

About: I’ve had pets since I was born. I love to take my dog on walks at the beach and play in the yard with him. I am attentive to any reactions they might have to their surroundings as well. I’ve been looking for a job during the week days and I figured why not try this out to maybe help some families live their life if they’re on vacation or super busy. I have a friendly dog who will keep any pets company. I have a big yard with sun or shade if any dogs love to be outside. I also have crates if dogs need to be crated during the night or day.

“Huge huge huge shout out to MacKenzie for watching my pups while I was out of town! I just moved up here and was a little worried about being away from the new place/state and leaving the dogs up here in the meantime. However, MacKenzie just seemed trustworthy, cool, and kind, and I was right! Not only did she want to make sure she did a good job and followed their schedules and everything to a T, she also just loved and cared about them instantly. What really sold MacKenzie as just being a rockstar was her willingness to work with my one dog who has major stranger danger and takes a bit to trust especially with females. MacKenzie did what she could and spent a lot of time focusing on his comfortability and building his trust with her while still ensuring my other dog got her attention and love as well. Throughout the visits, MacKenzie gave me numerous photos and videos as well as updates from all her visits. I am truly grateful to have had her help and her love and care for my animals while I was away. I will 100% be using MacKenzie from here on out for my animal’s care!”

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Clarkson

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Clarkson on Rover is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $49 per visit. 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 870 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clarkson. 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 Clarkson. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% 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 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.
