About: Three dogs, three personalities, three very different experiences. I’ve raised and cared for three dogs from puppyhood through adulthood: Nova, an American Cocker Spaniel, Ansel, a Rottweiler, and Coco, a Chocolate Lab. That experience has taught me how to work with dogs of different sizes, energy levels, temperaments, and needs. I know every pup is different, and I believe their care should be too. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, a potty break, some playtime, or simply a little company while you’re away, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for. Although I have a regular job, pet care fits naturally into my schedule. I’m available during my off-hours for walks and drop-in visits, allowing me to give your pup quality time and attention while you’re away. I value reliability, consistency, and making every visit a positive experience for your dog. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I give my own three dogs. I make sure my dogs get regular exercise, playtime, attention, mental stimulation, fresh water, and a consistent routine. I also pay close attention to their individual personalities and needs. When caring for your pet, I’ll follow their normal routine and your instructions closely, prioritize their safety, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

“Uduak was wonderful! She was communicative with my husband and I, and very patient with my pup who is not comfortable with new people. Uduak followed instructions to a tee, and also used her discernment in caring for Mozzy (even cleaning up an accident he had without us requesting she do so). 10 out of 10 would recommend. We will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

About: As a pet owner myself, of an energetic poodle, I understand the importance of maintaining open communication while your pet is in the care of another person. I work 100% remotely, which allows me the flexibility to cuddle, play, and care for your pet. I have a set schedule for walks but can also accommodate as needed. Pets are not allowed in my bedroom or bathroom in my home but are welcome to the rest of the home. They’ll also have their own room to safely sleep, play or relax.

About: I’ve taken care of several pets since I was young. I had several dogs and cats (sometimes at the same time!). I love walking and playing with dogs, I’ve trained my puppy. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I have also taken care of kittens and adult cats. I have litter trained kittens and played with them often. I currently work full time, but am more than happy to watch your fur baby on my days off! I have days off where I have no plans and would love to spend it with more dogs or with your cat! I have a fenced in yard and two fur babies (dogs) of my own who are friendly and can keep your fur baby company. I am use to watching other people’s fur babies in a 24 hour care setting.

About: We treat your pup like family—just like our own! We understand how important it is to know your dog is in the best hands. With a safe, comfortable home and a fully fenced yard with plenty of shade, your dog will have space to play, relax, and feel right at home. Our love for dogs means we provide personalized care, ensuring a happy, stress-free experience for both you and your furry friend! Pet care is at the heart of our daily routine! Our family of dedicated dog carers includes full-time and part-time workers, ensuring that someone is always home to give your pup the attention and care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime in our fenced yard, cozy relaxation indoors, or supervised socialization, your dog will always have loving companionship and a safe, comfortable environment throughout the day. In our home, we follow a loving and consistent routine to ensure every pup feels safe, happy, and well-cared for. Each day includes morning walks—rain or shine—followed by feeding and plenty of outdoor playtime in our fenced yard. If it’s raining, we bring the fun inside with an assortment of safe dog toys and interactive play. In the afternoon, we head out for another walk, and if applicable, a trip to the doggy park for extra social time. Treat time is always a highlight, and in the evening, we wind down with a final walk before tucking your pup into bed with soothing music for a peaceful night’s sleep. If your dog is more of a lounger and loves to relax while watching TV, we’re happy to accommodate their favorite pastimes, too! Your dog becomes part of our routine—and part of our family.

About: Having taken care of a precious Springer Spaniel for 14 years (Cocoa), I'll do my best to take care of your dog as if he or she were my own. I'm usually quite responsive when it comes to bookings and arrangements, responding within 15-20 minutes. I'll take them out to play and walk and feed them at least three times a day. I'll also bathe them, if need be. Most importantly, I will be as flexible and accommodating as possible to ensure that your dog will have fun while with me. I currently have open availability in my schedule, so I could most definitely sit your dog full-time if necessary. Above all else, I just love working with dogs as they are my favorite animal.

This was my very first time using Rover, and choosing this Star Sitter was one of the best decisions I could have made for Marley and Mocha! I interviewed three different sitters, but the moment she walked into my home, sat down with me, and I watched how naturally she engaged with Marley and Mocha, I immediately felt at ease. There was something about her energy, attentiveness, and genuine love for my pups that gave me the reassurance I needed to leave them in her care. I was away for five days and received consistent updates and follow-ups throughout my trip. I never had to wonder how Marley and Mocha were doing because she kept me informed and made sure I knew they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. And the true confirmation came when I returned home — especially with Mocha! She was actually looking around for her “Auntie!” That told me everything I needed to know. ❤️ I HIGHLY recommend her. When she says she cares for your pups so that “YOU CAN RELAX,” she absolutely means it. I was able to enjoy my time away knowing my babies were in loving, capable, and trustworthy hands. Thank you, QUEEN!!!!! 👑 You have officially become Auntie to Marley and Mocha, and we will definitely see you again soon!

Cynthia is wonderful! She takes excellent care of my dog and cat and always goes above and beyond to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. She’s reliable, attentive, and genuinely loves animals. She’s also one of the very few people my cat actually likes—which says a lot! Highly recommend her!

FAQs for Dog Sitting - Clinton

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Dog Sitting in Clinton is $28 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 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 14,610 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Clinton. 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Clinton choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Clinton with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Clinton. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% 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.

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.
