“Sarah did an outstanding job caring for our two Boston Terriers! From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely loves dogs, and our girls absolutely adore her. She kept us updated, gave them lots of attention, and treated them like they were her own. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing they were in such caring hands. We couldn’t be happier with the experience and will definitely continue using Sarah in the future. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!”
“I might sound redundant with my reviews of Liza’s services, but she is just wonderful, really. Professional, friendly, competent, and (so important) communicative. Book her!”
About: I have years of experience walking, feeding, and taking care of dogs, even puppies! My priority is to keep your fur babies safe and happy I have open availability. I am a college student that is home for summer break, meaning I am available any time of day, everyday, even on weekends. I will care for your pet, however I am told to do so. I will make sure fences and crates are used if told to do so. I just want your pet to be happy and safe.
“Neesa came to our meet and greet with prepared questions! Our anxious dog immediately warmed up to her, and she was able to read his body language easily. She sent plenty of cute videos and pictures during her drop ins!”
“Cindy was responsive for our last minute request! She always takes great pictures and provides updates. We were so grateful for the help! Our pups love seeing her”
About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and know how to take care of them. I’ve had a dog of my own until he passed away recently. The care and safety of your pets is my top priority. I believe in effective communication, so I will try my best to keep you updated throughout the process. I follow all my clients’ instructions and preferences, so you don’t have to worry about your home while you’re away; I make sure everything is locked up, treat your belongings with respect, and leave your home just as you left it so you can come back without extra stress, especially knowing how exhausting travel can be. I work fully remote so I work from home, so I can pack up and stay in your home whenever I'm available. I tend to adapt my daily schedule around my new roommates' schedules, so they don't get stressed out by the situation. I can also be of assistance for drop-in visits and for walking service. I work currently from Sunday to Tuesday so from Wednesday to Saturday I’m available to take care of your pets in whatever need they may have. I am unable to care for your pets at my home since my apartment doesn’t allow pets. Thank you for understanding. However I’m willing and able to care for them at your home.
About: I grew up with dogs and as a teenager assisted walking our dogs and foster dogs of varying sizes. I also know how to take care of cats. I've worked at dog boarding facilities where I've taken care of unfamiliar dogs. I can work Friday to Sunday any time and mornings during the week days due to other responsibilities such as taking care of my own pets Monday to Thursday. I trust in my ability to handle any dog under 40 pounds. I am willing to walk well behaved dogs from the same household together. I would be uncomfortable handling large pully or reactive dogs but can handle calm or heel trained dogs up to 70 lbs.
“Sydni was amazing with our two cats! She communicated well, was always punctual, and went above and beyond her listed duties many times. She sent loads of pictures and videos, which we really appreciated, and it seemed like she really took the time to hang out, play with the cats and get to know them, which is honestly priceless, to us. We will certainly be booking her again!”
“Oliver was fantastic with our 2 cats. When we came back they were super relaxed, which is a great sign. Oliver sent us pics every day, and managed exactly as we agreed. Will definitely call back next time we’re out of town!”
“Carrie was FANTASTIC with my dog, Zeke. She provided really thoughtful updates which put my mind at ease and he had so much fun with her the whole weekend. Highly recommend booking with Carrie if you want to have peace of mind when leaving your dog for a day or a weekend!”
“Ruby took excellent care of our two cats and was very prompt with responses. She also took care of our cat food auto-ship delivery when that arrived. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone.”
“My dog Duke loved his time with Ashley each day, twice a day for a week. It was daily complete and total professionalism. Each visit included feeding, changing water, administration of medication, walking and playing with him. Absolutely recommend her and plan to have her help again in the future.”
About: With over 10 years of pet care experience, I provide personalized attention and care tailored to each pet's unique needs. I've successfully raised three well-behaved puppies, teaching them essential skills like leash walking and basic commands. I'm skilled at recognizing individual pets' personalities, quirks, and habits, and providing gentle exercise, playtime, and specialized care as needed. Your beloved companion will receive the love, attention, and expert care they deserve. As a stay-at-home mom, I've got plenty of time to hang out with furry friends. My two dogs keep me company, and we spend our days playing and chillin' in our big backyard. I'm all about providing a comfy and loving space for pets to relax and have fun. Your pet is welcome to join the crew and get all the snuggles and playtime they deserve! When pets stay with me, they get to enjoy the ultimate flex: coming and going to our fenced yard as they please through the doggy door. My securely fenced backyard is their playground, and they can soak up sunshine and fresh air whenever the mood strikes. I'm all about keeping things consistent, so I stick to a routine that includes scheduled meal times, two daily walks, and plenty of playtime and snuggles. Whether we're hanging at my place or yours, I've got everything covered to ensure a happy, relaxed experience for your furry friend.
“Hayley was amazing! Arrived early/on time and took lots of pictures. We asked for help on short notice and she delivered! We came home to a happy dog and cat. Will definitely use her again!”
About: I'm excited to have your furry friend over and will give them all the TLC they deserve while sticking to their regular schedules. I've been obsessed with dogs since I was a kid and have taken care of our family dog, Lucky, since he was a puppy up until he passed away due to old age at 17 years. I now have a 6 year old Shiba Inu, Sumi, and a 10 year old cat, Ellie. Sumi was a rescue mill mama and was extremely fearful. With patience and love, she's finally come out of her shell. I've managed to teach both the dog and the cat tricks and work on training with them daily. I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and am home most of the day. I'll stick to whatever schedule your pet is used to so there won't be any confusion when they return to you. Our neighborhood is pretty large and also has a walking trail, so walks can be as short or long as you'd like. There's a dog friendly space downstairs with plenty of room to run around and play with toys, or if they prefer to chill, there's plenty of pet beds and blankets in the living room. I have a very chill and friendly Shiba Inu and Husky/Shepherd mix at home that can keep your dog company. I do have a cat that has their own room and can be separated if your dog doesn't get along with cats. I also have a large crate and two pens available if that's something you're used to doing. Baby gates are set up between each floor, but are usually left open for my dog. There are cameras on each floor so that I can keep an eye on the pets if I'm leaving the home or on a different floor.
“Anton did a wonderful job taking care of Odin! He made sure to send me pictures everyday, and updated me on how he was eating and drinking. I saw too that he took the time to play with him everyday, and make friends with my little guy. Would definitely recommend!”
“Teffni’s been a responsible and caring sitter throughout the 3 weeks stint with our cat. She’s punctual, responsive and meticulously handled the duties of looking after our cat well. Will definitely consider her for future sitting needs and recommend her services to anyone.”

Nichole was wonderful with our cats and cockatiels! She sent us photo updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our pets warmed up to her surprisingly quickly, and it was clear they were well cared for. We will definitely be booking Nichole again for our future trips. Highly recommend!
We couldn't have asked for a better cat sitter than Elona! She took care of our senior cat for a week, and the level of attention and care she provided was truly above and beyond. She diligently administered his anxiety and arthritis medications, kept all four of his water bowls fresh daily, played with his favorite toy to keep him happy, and even took the time to talk to him so he never felt alone. Our cat can be a handful with his special needs, but Elona handled everything with ease and genuine love. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who will treat your pet like family!
Betty took great care of our two cats. She also did a great job communicating, letting us know if she was going to be a bit late to a check-in and even sending pictures of proof of cleaning the litter boxes 🙂. She also made friends with our less social cat, which was wonderful to see!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Colesville on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 18,165 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Colesville. 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 Colesville 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 Colesville. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
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.
