“Kate is amazing! Our grandkids were visiting and we had all their towels and suits on the porch. It had started to rain and Kate picked everything up, folded everything and brought everything inside. She also brought two big packages in that were on the porch. PLUS took amazing care of our elderly dog!! A+ care!!”
About: I’ve had animals for my entire life including cats, dogs, fish, hamster and guinea pigs. I have taken care of many other animals and love being around them. I have volunteered at animal shelters since middle school and am currently walking shelter dogs. I love animals and want to fit them into any free time I have. I care for my animals everyday and want to care for others as well! I treat every animal and home with the upmost of respect. I want to treat every animal the way I would want mine treated. I love every animal so when they are in my care they are in great care.
“Ella took great care of Marley during the two drop-in visits we booked with her! Great communication throughout the whole process and good attention to detail. Marley loved her! We Will definitely book with her again! :)”
About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs for my whole life from childhood on. Taking care of family pets, as well as now pet sitting for friends when they go away or stopping in to let the animals out through the day for bathroom breaks or feeds. I am currently working part-time with 3-4 free days during the week, during which I spend most of it working/playing with my dog. I have a fenced in area for dogs to play and have a crate if needed. A friendly Australian shepherd lives with me and can provide company if wanted.
“Ella is AMAZING!! My dog is a big boy and a little intimidating. Ella came over before are trip spent time with him and was so patient and great with him!! 100% using Ella again!!”
About: I’m a wildlife biologist and have experience caring for all kinds of species but my favorite are dogs! I’ve fostered and raised dogs my entire life so I have experience with senior dogs, pups, aggressive dogs, and dogs with special needs. I love puppies of all ages and breeds and I’m excited to treat your babies just like my own! I am currently not working so I am available 24/7! I will send pictures and updates of your pup and provide plenty of potty breaks and walks! I have one cute corgi named Moose and he is the sweetest and gets along with everyone! My boy is kennel trained and up to date on all of his vaccines but I will keep him separate from your babies since he’s young and too playful for most dogs!
About: I’ve had pets my whole life! I’ve had cats for as long as I can remember, as well as several dogs, so I’m no stranger to the responsibility of keeping animals. I currently work for a theatre company, but I'm usually available most weekdays. In the evening, I'm available before 5pm and after 9pm, but that changes from time to time. Everyone's pet care is different and I know a lot of animals benefit from having a familiar routine. So if you have a certain way of doing things, I'll do my best to keep that consistent for your pet!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 133 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Costigan. 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 Costigan. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
