“Liza was AMAZING! It was our first time using Rover. We have two dogs and a cat and we’re feeling nervous about leaving them. Liza was so good with them, cuddled them, and always left us with the best visit details with really cute pictures! I know we can’t wait to book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“Elizabeth dropped in to feed and play with our dog while I was out of town. She was highly communicative and I really appreciated the variety of pictures she sent me. Our dog can be high energy and a bit much when you first meet her, but that didn’t change Elizabeth’s willingness to take care of her. I would recommend her!!”
“Teffni does an amazing job. She does drop in visits for our three dogs around lunch time while we're at work, and I have peace of mind that they are well taken care of and get a much needed break in the middle of the day. She's responsive, flexible with her schedule, and most importantly our dogs just love her.”
“Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful sitter! We had an excellent experience! Brianne was most responsive and kept us updated throughout the visits. They showed great care and attention to our dog, and everything was handled perfectly. and professionally.”
“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!”
“Khadija was very communicative, flexible, and followed all care instructions. She provided daily pictures and videos during the check-in, so I never felt nervous about being away from my cat for an extended period. My cat absolutely adored spending time with her!”
“Anton was great with my two kitties. Hey played with them everyday and sent lots of pictures. It was really easy to communicate with him all week. I would definitely use him again. One of our cats is usually shy, but after the first day we saw pictures of the cat hanging out with Anton.”
“Erin was an amazing pet sitter. Two of our kitties loved her, and she got eyes (and pictures!) of our third baby, who is anxious and loves to hide. She made sure to check our girl’s breathing, since she has asthma and was able to reassure that she was doing well. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing she was taking care of our kitty crew. We would definitely book her again.”
“Julia is amazing!! She is quick to respond and takes the most adorable pictures!! I also love the notes she leaves with each drop in. I would HIGHLY recommend her!! My dog absolutely loves her.”
“Ashley was fantastic with our cat! She was very responsive and communicative with us, flexible when our plans changed, and did everything we could possibly ask. Our cat was in great hands while we were away and was happy as ever after Ashley's visits. We will definitely book her again!”
“Marion is absolutely wonderful. She is always quick to respond, takes amazing care of my Luna Tuna, and clearly has a genuine love for what she does. As a bonus, she even loves plants. I could not recommend her more.”
“Paola communicated in a timely manner and sent great photos of my cat. I could tell my cat liked her because she came right over. Thanks for accepting my booking at such a last minute!”
“Hazel has been great help for our busy family and taking care of Max our fur baby. Super punctual and flexible and communicative. Max sure enjoys his walks with her. Thank you Hazel 🙏🏻”
“Samuel was a wonderful sitter! He was very attentive and responsible, he sent great summaries and pictures, and was flexible when fitting me in last minute. My rambunctious kitty had a great with him!”
“Steven was incredible with my girls. He genuinely cares about what he is doing and gave both of my dogs so much care and support while I was away. They loved having him over for drop ins.”
About: Hi! My name is Renee and I’ve been taking care of animals for most of my life. I grew up in a household with many different kinds of pets including dogs, rodents, and reptiles. I currently own two small dogs, Shih Tzu and Maltese mixes, one is 13 and the other is 3. I love all animals and am comfortable with them all. I’m currently unemployed so I have tons of time to care for and play with your furry friends! I’m mostly available on weekends as I have responsibilities weekdays, but I’m very flexible! I have a fenced in yard. I would keep my dogs separate just as a proactive measure since they are small. In your home I would care for your precious pet how you see fit!
The median cost per visit for pet sitting in Colesville is $20
Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Colesville
This was my first time using Rover and I was a bit anxious how it would go and giving a stranger access to our home. Especially because one of our 2 cats has kidney disease kitty and needs fluid injections every 2 days. But Sarah was absolutely lovely and awesome. You can see that she loved our two kitties, and it looks like everything went really well with our kidney patient. I got pictures and videos every day and they both warmed up easily to Sarah. Sarah gave me a real piece of mind while traveling and I will definitely book her next time I need a sitter ( if she is available). Thank you!!!
Faith was amazing!! It’s always very anxiety inducing for me to leave my cats, especially since my one is very shy and easily startled. But she took such good care of them and even got my loner cat to come out for some love!! Faith is very communicative and I loved that she sent plenty of pictures each day. It’s obvious that she loves the cats and taking care of animals! I will not hesitate to book her next time I’m out of town :)
Neesa is very reliable when it comes to dropping in and checking on our dog, Moose! He always has a good time when she comes by to take care of him. We’re grateful for her help and recommend Neesa to anyone who needs a petsitter you can trust and who communicates promptly.
Nichole took great care of my cat! She followed her feeding and cleaning routine well and was very communicative with updates. She was also reliable and responsible, and I never had to worry about my cat while under her care. Most importantly, she earned my shy cat's trust quickly 😺. I highly recommend Nichole for all pet care needs!
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 August 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 August 2026, there are 18,078 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.
