“Samantha did an awesome job watching our pups! They adored her and we felt so comfortable with her. She was always on time and let us know how things were going with each check-in. We will definitely request her as often as possible and would recommend her services to anyone. Great job!”
About: I grew up with all kinds of animals and took care of them when sick or when family or friends were away. I can continue training if needed. I love to take care of fur babies. I can confidently say when you get home your fur babies will be happy! I am a caregiver for the elderly with dementia my schedule varies but tends to be midday up to 5 days a week 4-5 hour shifts. I can adapt to any set of rules you may have for your pets to help them be more comfortable and feel safe while in my care.
“Lauren did a great job with our cat. She kept us updated daily. He was happy when we arrived home and the litter box was clean. This was a great first experience using Rover.”
“Prana was amazing! One of my kitties got herself locked under the house next door and Prana made an extra trip and was resourceful enough to figure out where she was, find the key, and get her home safe and sound in record time. My kitties loved her and even though I was out of town for two weeks they were super relaxed and happy when I got home. Me and my kitties recommend Prana!”
About: I've always loved taking in animals and taking care of them whether they were my own or not. I have been pet sitting for about 4 years now, and I volunteered at an animal clinic in Athens, GA for 6 months. At the clinic I frequently bathed, walked, feed, and took care of many different dogs and cats. I currently only work a couple days out of the month and also complete college online, so my schedule gives me open and flexible availability! Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are all prioritized when caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s home. I always take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs such as feeding schedules, medications, or behavioral preferences.
“Hanna was great stopping by everyday and attempting to coax my very shy cats out of hiding, she kept their food, water and litter in great condition and the cats were happy and healthy when I returned home.”
About: Hi! I have loved all sorts of animals since I was born, and have had years of experience with my own dogs and cats. I also currently have two red eyed tree frogs! I would be thrilled and honored to take care of your beloved animals. I am currently a college student, so my late mornings/afternoons are relatively busy. I can attend to your pet in the early morning and any time after 5pm. My weekends are generally free. When I am visiting your pet, I will be sure to respect their boundaries and take my time getting acquainted with them. I am currently unable to take care of your pet in my home.
“Peyton did a great job. It was our 1st time using the Rover service. The whole experience went well. Peyton shown up on time each of the 3 times we had her scheduled come come by while we were out of town for the night. She sent pics of our dogs having fun during one of her visits. Nice touch! ; ) We had a list of things for Peyton to do during her visits, which included amoung other things giving one of our dogs meds, and she ticked them all off one by one. We will definitely request Peyton back in the future.”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. I currently have 5 dogs, 2 birds, a hamster and 4 goats. I would love to be a part of your pet’s journey. I will make them feel loved while you are away. I currently own a food truck with a make your own schedule concept. I am available pretty much all the time. My free time could be spent loving on your babies. I will gladly come to your home several times a day to devote special time to your babies.

“kathryn was so great with mitsi! she left me a detailed review of their time together (two walks in one day) and mitsi looked super happy in the photos. i’ll definitely be reaching out to kathryn in the future for times i need care for mitsi!”
“She did an excellent job. This was our first time using a service of this nature - so glad it went well. Looking forward to reaching out to Kaitlyn in the future to care for our pets needs. I like that she was close by. And the format via rover - checking and time management- pictures were sent - really nice to get that kind of interaction.”

“Grave was the kindest professional caregiver we’ve ever had — sadly our sweet Ellie passed away on the second day of our trip — she hadn’t been sick and we will never know what happened but Grace handled a very difficult situation with such care and concern. She made sure Kai was cared for everyday knowing he had lost his companion, Thank you, Grace!”
About: With 3 years of hands on pet care experience, I specialize in creating a calm and positive environment for every pet. I’m comfortable caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets with special routines. I treat every animal as if they were my own (: Being a stay at home mom allows me to give pets the full attention they need throughout the day. I keep a consistent routine and lots of affection. Your pet will always have company and care while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their usual routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I handle feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I also make sure your home stays tidy and your pets are happy and well loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve helped petsit for my friends before and love taking care of dogs, cats, and even other animals like lizards and gerbils. I have worked for a veterinary clinic and have experiences with small and large dogs and love them all. I am currently a student so I have classes every day but am free after 6PM most days of the week and 12PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I have time between classes to come home and care for animals and can definitely work them into my routine. If a pet is brought into my home, I have a fenced yard and a large space indoors for them to roam around. They have access to my room and the main living space. In your home, I will ensure to take care of your pets how you prefer and to keep myself and them out of rooms they are not allowed in.
About: Taking care of any type of dog fills me with joy, I give them a lot of love, trying to give back as much love as they give me. I am able to train them (basic commands), I fill them with love, I bathe them, and if the owners authorize me, we’ll have lots of play time in the park. My attention is 100% to them, and I am very very happy anytime I take care of a puppy Honestly I can at any time and moment. You just have to notify in advance please, that allows me to organize my schedule accordingly :) Most of the time I take care of the puppies in my house. I do have a dog of my own, but he is extremely friendly to other dogs and he is always ready to play (small breed)

I would stop by to make sure take them outside to play and go potty! Along with this, I have experience staying the night to care for a pup and keep them company! Sorry my response rate is so low, I couldn’t respond while out of town. I’m usually very responsive! I am currently a college student for the summer so I have lots of free time! I can do mornings, afternoons, nights etc. If needed, Im available for extended amounts of time and also short check ins! I offer dog walks, potty breaks, playtime, and good company!

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Colbert is $17 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $30 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.

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.

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.
