“Great experience! We booked a quick drop-in visit before an upcoming house sit, and everything went wonderfully. She was punctual, friendly, and took the time to get to know our pets and their routines. We felt very comfortable with her and are looking forward to having her stay with our pets while we’re away. Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve been a pet owner since birth. I have been watching pets and taking care of them for over 10 years. I love animals with all my heart. I currently work as a paraprofessional in an Extended School Year program during all July during the week Monday to Thursday for 4 hours. I have open availability after 1 pm and on the weekends. I will meet your pet at the their needs. I’m great at following any routine or instructions you leave for me since I love rules. If I have any question or concern, I will ask at once. I’m a problem solver so I can figure out most things before I need to interrupt a date night, vacation or work.
“This was our first time using a pet sitter, other than family, and we are extremely pleased with the experience. Cassie went above and beyond, taking care of our cats and home while we were away. Even our very shy cat, who takes days to come out while visitors are here, was out within a day and looking forward to her visits. Regular updates, photos, and personable accounts of the visits all added up to easing our minds about how the cats were doing, and we can't thank Cassie enough for her care of 2 of our furry family members! Highly recommend and will be calling Cassie for sure next time we need someone to watch the cats.”

About: I have had dogs all my life. I have experience with working breeds such as german shepherds and corgis. I have experience taking care of exotic animals as well such as rabbits and frogs. I have experience with cats of all different sizes and ages. I have experience with dogs of all different sizes and ages as well. I love animals and will treat your animals just like family. I am able to accommodate various schedules and can guarantee 4-6 hours during the day to care for your pets while house sitting. Please let me know if you need additional time during the day or night in advance. I ensure all pets needs are met whether it be making sure they are taking a specific medication or something as simple as making sure to take them out every couple of hours. I want to make sure that any pet in my care is being well taken care of. My Basic House-Sitting service includes staying overnight with your pet so they have company and comfort in their own home, along with daytime care every 4-6 hours for potty breaks, meals, playtime, and cuddles.

About: I've been around dogs since I was born. They bring me a special kind of love that no other pet can and I just can't live without them. I currently have a dog of my own and I wanted to share my experience and overall love of dogs. I am ready to give your dog the love, attention, belly rubs, exercise and care they need while you're away on vacation, work or any occasion you will need some help. I will send lots of photos to make you feel comfortable that your dog is in good hands! Whether it's curling up on the sofa during a rainy day and snuggling, or going on a long walk on a brisk fall day, I am ready to have fun with your dog and provide the best care. I am a stay at home mom right now and have a lot of time to dedicate to dog walking or pet sitting. I am flexible with your needs and schedules. We have a yard at our house but also a very warm and inviting home with animal lovers alike. I will make sure your pet is well loved and safe in any condition.
About: I work with dogs and cats at a pet groomers. So on my time off I love caring for them by waking and pet sitting. I work part time and I am in school. My hours right now are pretty flexible but I would say afternoons usually work best for me. I have a fence yard so pups can play outside. I have two dogs of my own. If a dog needs to be crated I own a couple of crates that vary in sizes.
About: Hi, I’m Roland! 🐾 I have hands-on experience in animal shelter care, dog handling, and training. I’m passionate about understanding canine behavior and making sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether your pup needs a walk, some company, or extra patience and understanding, I’m here to help! I’ll treat your dog like family and keep their well-being my top priority. Pet care is a part of my daily routine and a major part of my life. I make sure my animals receive consistent feeding, fresh water, exercise, enrichment, and attention every day. I also prioritize their mental well-being by observing their behavior, building trust, and providing opportunities for training and socialization at their individual comfort levels. Between caring for my own animals, working at an animal shelter, and training dogs privately, animal care is something I dedicate time to throughout the week. I understand that every animal has different needs, and I strive to provide patient, consistent, and compassionate care that helps them feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Safety, trust, and comfort are always my top priorities when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a calm, structured environment with a securely fenced yard for safe outdoor time and exercise. I maintain routines and reinforce basic training every other day to keep dogs mentally engaged and well-behaved.

About: Hi, I’m Jocelyn! I grew up with a Jack Russell/terrier mix who has been part of our family for 12 years, so dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a teenager. I’m also a proud cat mom of two, and between my sisters’ cats (an orange tabby duo!) and my own, I’m very comfortable with feline personalities too. My pet care experience includes caring for my husband’s senior, blind family dog — so I’m confident with pets who need a little extra patience and gentle handling — as well as care for different breeds of dogs and cats from friends to coworkers! I bring the same reliability from my years in customer service and hospitality: I show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat every fur baby like they’re my own. What sets me apart: I love photography and videography, so every walk or visit comes with photo and video updates of your fur babies having a great time — not just a quick “all good!” text. You’ll actually get to see the tail wags. I’m also an active person myself — I run, hike, and play tennis — I’m happy to give high-energy dogs the exercise they need! Currently booking flexible daytime and weekend visits. Looking forward to meeting you & yours! :) Pet care fits naturally into my routine right now since I have a flexible schedule with plenty of daytime availability. I’m an active person — I work out, walk, and spend time outdoors regularly — so incorporating walks or visits into my day feels like a natural extension of how I already live, not an extra chore. I also have two cats of my own, so daily feeding, litter care, and playtime are already part of my everyday rhythm! In my own home, my boys have consistent routines — regular feeding times, fresh filtered water, clean litter areas, and daily play and enrichment. I keep a calm, safe environment and give plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day, not just at scheduled check-ins. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s existing routine exactly as-is — same feeding schedule, same food, same walk times — since consistency matters most for pets in an unfamiliar situation (or even a familiar one with their person away). I treat the home with the same care and respect I’d want for my own space: doors/gates secured, messes cleaned up, and everything left exactly as I found it. And of course, you’ll get photo/video updates throughout so you can see your pet is happy and comfortable the whole time! (:
About: I love all animals and have been taking care of adorable pets for the past 10 years, in addition to raising my own dog, cat, turtle, and guinea pig. I love taking them for walks, playing with them, and making sure they have everything they need to be happy and cozy! I'm currently working part-time while being home for the summer from college, so I'll have plenty of time to play and care for your pets! My work schedule varies per week so I am flexible and available most times! I am happy to care for your pets in any way you see fit! You and your pet's safety and trust is important to me, so let me know what makes you most comfortable!
“Jenny was great!!!! This was a very last minute need on Labor Day weekend and she came to meet my girls, bonded with them instantly and came by twice to walk them and spend some time with them so we could attend an event - she kept me posted and sent me some adorable photos during her stay! It was such a relief to know they were well cared for so we could attend our event! The only concern which is not directed at Jenny at all was that when I first put the inquiry in for pet care on Labor Day weekend, the app never mentioned anything about holiday weekend fee of $50 per visit - I am very new on this site and had no idea until Jenny came to visit and we went forward with booking and at that point I didn’t have any choice - that said, it cost me $150 when I anticipated $50 which was a total bummer! Jenny is wonderful , warm and trustworthy and I will definitely use her again!!!!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. I have experience with dog walking, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, litter box care, potty breaks, and spending quality time with pets. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets as well as pets who are shy, anxious, older, or simply need some extra patience. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions and provide photos and updates throughout the visit so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m dependable, communicative, and happy to arrange a meet & greet before a first booking. Pet care fits well into my routine, and I make sure I only accept bookings that I can give the proper time and attention to. My availability can vary throughout the week, so I communicate with pet parents ahead of time to make sure our schedules work together. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, daycare, and boarding, with more flexibility on certain days and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I understand that being away from their owner or in a new environment can be stressful for some animals, so I’m patient and allow them time to get comfortable with me. I keep pets supervised, provide a clean and comfortable environment, and will always communicate with you if I notice anything unusual. I’m also happy to do a meet & greet beforehand so both you and your pet feel comfortable!

About: Hi! I'm Danielle! I have been an animal lover my whole life! I grew up around dogs and recently had to put my kitty cat, Gray, down. I am 36 years old, and currently live in Egg Harbor Township. I work weekdays for Atlantic County, so my nights are always free! Your family member would be my main concern! They would get whatever they need and be the center of attention! I love being outdoors, so if he/she does too, we'll be outside as much as possible! I am a photographer on the side, so expect lots of pictures both while you're away and when you get back! I find that it is helpful to send Mom/Dad daily updates to keep your mind at ease.
About: Welcome to my Rover profile! As an experienced and passionate dog lover, I am excited to offer my services to new clients. With several years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I have developed a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I am confident in my ability to provide your furry friend with the care and attention they need to feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My services include feeding, walking, and playing with your dog, as well as providing any necessary medication or special care instructions. I also have experience working with dogs who have specific dietary or medical needs. In addition to my experience, I am committed to providing the highest quality care for your dog. I prioritize communication with my clients, providing regular updates and photos to keep you informed about your dog's well-being while you're away. Thank you for considering me as your dog sitter. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I wake up and walk the dog then feed them breakfast. I work 8 hours in Atlantic City Monday through Friday. I’m completely available on the weekends for overnight stays. I board at the owner's home to ensure the dog can stay in an area he or she is familiar with. I can drop in multiple times a day or stay at the home overnight for around the clock care.
“Alyssa was always on time for the schedule I set and prompt with her report cards and photo's. She was very kind/courteous with my dogs during the Mee/Greet and made me feel very comfortable entrusting their care to her. I will definitely utilize her services again and highly recommend her!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Cologne
Jazmin did a great job! She seemed to genuinely care for our cat, Cleo, even though it was her first time watching her. She did Cleo’s routine, played with her, and gave her attention. Cleo can be a picky and talkative senior cat, and Jazmin was dedicated to providing good care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Cologne is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $32 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 1,003 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cologne. 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 Cologne. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 98% 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.
