About: Throughout my teen years, I’ve taken care of many pets; from training my puppies to caring for relatives’ pets. No matter the circumstances, I always have a fun time caring for these pets. I’m on the hunt for a part time job so I’m available all the time to care for pets! What better to do than doing something I love? I have three dogs at home and big yard but as we warm my dogs up to playing with others as part of their puppy training, we’ll keep your pets in your home.
“Regina is so caring and sweet with our pup, Molly! Punctual, attentive, and went over and above taking care of our Molly, playing with her in the yard and even bringing in our mail. I had to book last minute due to an issue with a family member cancelling unexpectedly. I was able to relax knowing Molly was in the best of hands. Thank you, Regina!”
“Kari was great to work with and was amazing with our dog, Marty! She did several drop-ins for us while we were away. Marty loved all the love and attention! We would definitely book with her agian.”
“Gianna is wonderful. My pups feel so comfortable with her, she follows whatever info I leave her to make it easier, she spends time with them and leaves me a detailed note to keep me updated on how they are. I am happy to have found her and will continue to book her for my pups!”
“Alyssa was very thoughtful and took great care of our cats. They were immediately comfortable with her and it’s clear she has a lot of experience with animals. She also managed our older cat’s multiple medications very well!”
“Joanne was kind and attentive. Really made us feel at ease while being away. We got detailed updates on how my dogs were feeling everyday. Even when one seemed sad that we were gone longer than he’d like. I couldn’t be happier with our experience.”
“Zahira is the best! She was available on a whim and I always feel great about leaving our babies with her. She goes above and beyond with communication and updates and takes the absolute best care of our dogs! She’s basically Remy’s favorite person!”
“Victoria did a great job checking in on Mellow. She was very communicative and we were glad to see Mellow was well taken care of. We’d be happy to contact Victoria again to watch Mellow in the future”
“Alyssa did amazing! My request was short notice and she was able to accommodate her schedule time to drop in with Pongo. Loved the updates, and she has a great communication. Thank you so much for helping.”
“Britney communicated with us during each visit. She took several photos of all of our dogs and asked questions when she didn’t know the answer. Our dogs absolutely loved her. We are so thankful for her services.”
“We can’t say enough good things about Christina. From our first contact Christina was communicative, honest, polite, prompt, friendly, and caring. Her love for animals is obvious within the first moments of meeting her. She is thorough in getting all the important information - even things we hadn’t considered. She is great with our senior dog and our young puppy. She isn’t afraid to bring up any issues she’s seen our dogs exhibiting. Christina regularly shares photos of our dogs both to the app and maybe a couple extra via text. Her visit notes are detailed. We are thrilled with each interaction we’ve had with Christina and can confidently recommend her to anyone!”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for 21 years and have always loved caring for animals. My dog of 17 years just recently passed, so I have plenty of knowledge on how to care for older dogs as well. I also have experience pet sitting for family, friends, and others in my community. I’m responsible, dependable, and comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs. I’ll make sure your pets receive plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care while you’re away! I am in between jobs right now, being that I had a summer job! I have a lot of free time for furry friends! I am available all times of the day right now, and will change availability in the future! I will always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort while caring for them in their own home. I’ll follow your instructions closely, keep their environment clean and secure, and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, food, and fresh water. I’ll also provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
“This was our first time using someone who wasn't family watch our puppies while we were away snd katie made us feel so confident that they were well taken care of! She was very communicative and the dogs had a blast with her! We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.”
“Jess took wonderful care of our three pups in our home while we were away. One of our pups has special needs and she was very accommodating to all of his care. We loved receiving updates and photos from each visit. Would highly recommend Jess for your in-home pet sitter needs!”
“Monica has been so sweet, and willing to come on last minute visit requests. She goes above and beyond anyone I’ve met, even voluntarily cleaning up puppy messes or accidents he might have gotten in to after breaking out of crates. She always keep me updated and sends the cutest photos. So thankful for her, and love to continue my pups play time with her.”
About: I was born and raised in Ukraine. My parents had a big house with big backyard, so we always had dogs and cats. Just like us, animals have their characters, they also get sick and do get old and more tender and fragile. Since I was a child I helped with care, feeding and sometimes even births of our animals. That taught me that just loving them is not enough! Care, compassion and respect are fundamental, when you own them or help someone with their furry babies! I am a responsible and caring person. Feeding, cleaning, playing, talking and sometimes listening to them, it’s all part of it! Give me a chance to become your pet’s friend. I’ll cherish them as my own! :) I have three human children and while they are in school, I’m all yours! Every day starting 9 am till 3 pm I can be a friend to your cat or dog. :) I have a fenced backyard that can easily accommodate 3 to 4 dogs! Am planing to get a crate, just in case it might be needed.
“I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention my dog received while in Cecily S’s hands. From the moment we met, it was clear they genuinely love animals and treat them like family. I received regular updates, photos, and thoughtful communication throughout. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such loving and responsible hands. I highly recommend Cecily to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and kind. Five stars all the way!”
“Kara was great. She took care of my cat for a week. She gave lots of pets and documented (in pictures and in short write-ups) her visits with Monty. I would definitely use her again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Clayton on Rover is $19.26 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 .
As of September 2026, there are 7,684 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Clayton. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Clayton 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 Clayton. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 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.
