About: For 9 years, I have worked in the animal care industry. I became a general manager for a popular dog daycare and boarding facility in 2023. My passion for animals centers on animal care and wellness. This passion drives me to learn as much as she can about how to provide the best care for dogs. I believe that the more we can learn, share, and teach each other about animal care, the more happy, healthy and safe pets there will be. I absolutely love going to work everyday and spending time with the dogs and treating them as if they were my own. When dogs are in my care, they are family. I currently work Monday through Friday, during the day, but my schedule is flexible. I am able to accommodate early morning check ins and evenings. When I have dogs in my care, doesn’t matter where we are, they are my family. I am an extension of you, their owner. I strive for all dogs in my care to feel happy, safe and most importantly loved while their humans are away.

With me, your pet receives consistent, one-on-one care and genuine love—giving you peace of mind every time you’re away. I’ve had all types of animals growing up and would bring home all the strays.

About: Hi my name is Evan! let’s begin with a little bit about myself to make sure that I am the perfect sitter/walker for you and your furry companions. Firstly it’s been a really big passion of mine to be able to work with all different kinds of animals and breeds. I have experience with mostly dogs, but I’m open to working with different types of animals as well because I believe in the importance of building and connecting with my pet parents from all different backgrounds. While giving you the full reassurance needed in order to feel comfortable and secure when entrusting me with your pet companion, I can assure you that I will give them the best possible care and support they deserve and need. I’ve worked with small breeds half my life and now I was given a chance to care for three larger dogs in my recent years. through the differences between caring for a small breeds and going into caring for a larger breeds I have learned more about the ways that they interact and how they respond to certain conditions. I’m capable of handling situations which call for a lot of patience and compassion. The example I want to make when working with your pet comes down to understanding who the pets are and how they will react. I’ve worked with not so social pets and overly social ones as well, before me and your pet will interact or leave the house I will build up a circle of trust and connection to see what kind of personality that they will have. I know from prior experience that some pets are not fans of each other or people and have a difficult time regulating their own emotions unless they’re are familiar with a specific environment or trigger. Some have the tendency to shy away and lean more towards the comfort of having someone who will help them feel safe and calm when around them. This is my specialty. This would be the part where we form an understanding and get to know all the important details about your pet, as someone who is still learning don’t feel pressured if I ask any questions my intentions are to make sure I know everything I need in order to give you and your pet the best possible experience I can offer. and it’s my favorite part about working with pet parents. thank you for viewing my profile and hopefully I met the requirements that you have been looking for have a great day! My schedule's flexible. Contact me for availability, especially early mornings or late evenings. Ready to discuss at your convenience. Let's find the perfect time together! When sitting for someone I treat their home with respect and care, I follow the instructions given and when checking in or staying overnight my main focus is on their pets needs and attention.

“Tracy was great! She looked in on our older cat and younger dog this past week. Our older cat has some health issues and Tracy reported on his eating/other habits to help keep us apprised of his situation. She also took our dog for a few walks, fed her and gave her some company. Tracy responded to texts quickly, is friendly and our pets seemed to be just fine with her! We’re so thrilled!”

About: My introduction to working with animals started when I became a sitter/walker in my free time during college. In addition to having my own pets- both cats and dogs, I have over four years of experience working with dogs as a groomer. It is safe to say I am an animal lover that treats any baby in my care like they’re my own. Whatever special care your fur baby may need, I am willing to provide! I am currently taking time off so I have open availability for drop-in visits and walks! I have availability for early morning walks/visits as well. It’s important to get to know your fur baby before coming into your home to build trust. Meet & Greets are an important part of getting to know your pet.

About: I am a 26 year old vet tech at Faithful Friends Animal Society and have been pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors since I was very young. I can care for pets with medical issues and medications as well as other medical treatments. I love all dogs and can deal with more timid dogs if necessary. I can care for dogs, cats, and any other type of pet. I am limited in availability to stay in your home but often can do frequent drop by’s to care for your pet. I would love to get to know your pets! Contact me by text or call any time! I work a full time schedule but am free in the evenings and on the weekends to care for your pets. My regular work days are from 830-530 but they do vary by day of the week. I have a tremendous love for animals and for caring for them as I have made it my career. I have lots of love to give as well as knowledge in vet care and good communication while you are away, which can be over texts or calls or any way convenient. I am comfortable house sitting your home and caring for plants and other house chores. I unfortunately cannot accommodate your pets in my own home as I am a renter.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover and an ICU nurse, so I understand how important staying active and maintaining a healthy lifestyle is—and that goes for our dogs too! Although I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, from Dobermans to Yorkshire Terriers. I truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m happy to tailor my care to whatever works best for you and your pup. I live in an apartment, but I’m surrounded by parks and great walking areas, so I can take your dog on walks around your neighborhood or to nearby parks for some extra exercise and enrichment. I’m also a great fit for dogs who may not do well around other pets, as I’m happy to give them one-on-one attention in a comfortable environment. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I’ll follow your preferred routine and make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I’m also happy to send as many photos and videos as you’d like to keep you updated and give you peace of mind. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d love to meet you and your furry friend! 🐾❤️ I am surrounded by many parks, so taking advantage of the weather and getting my steps in with your dog is one way to make them feel comfortable and making sure their physical needs are met. I am trustworthy and transparent when taking care of pets. I treat them like my own while following any special care they need! I am happy to send updates through photos or videos as well.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Collins Park

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Collins Park is $16 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $7 and $16 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 7,103 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Collins Park. 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.

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 Collins Park. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.

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.
