“First time using Rover. Christina was very kind, always on time and took great care of our two cats while we were away. Communication was excellent! We loved getting pictures of our kitties each day. Everything went perfectly in my opinion and we”ll definitely reach out to her again when we need a pet sitter. Thank you again Christina!”
About: I have 2 big dogs of my own as well as a cat. I’ve taken care of all of them since they were little puppies and kitties. One of my dogs is medicated and I’m happy to assist you with medications if needed. I have past experience walking/ looking after my neighbors, family’s and friends dogs and cats. I am currently a student so during the summer I am completely free. I prefer Monday- Friday but am happy to help on weekends. I don’t have a problem with early mornings or late nights. Whatever is convenient to you! I have an electric fence to conceal my two dogs. Although we have this, I never leave them outside without my eyesight on them. I try to keep my eye on them as much as possible to avoid anything that could go wrong/ prevent harm to your home.
“Erin was amazing to hire for our two cats. I know they were happy and well cared for! As for going the extra mile; there was a wind storm while we were gone, some things blew all over the yard. Erin was kind enough to pick up, so we didn't lose our kid's toys. Will definitely use her again when needed!”
About: I’ve taken care of almost any and every animal you could think of. I’ve owned dogs straight down to pigs! I also have 7 years of experience in childcare, and much likes kids, dogs need LOTS of attention. I’m currently staying at home so I have all the time to take your puppy for a walk, pet sitting, I’m super flexible to fit your schedule! I have a very friendly dog, and an almost 5 year old. If your puppy loves to run we have a huge unfenced yard with lots and lots of space for them to run.
“Highly recommend she truly loved on our boy while we were gone definitely will be booking again when going out of town ! Also sent extra pictures because my son liked looking at them!”
About: Hi! My name is Caitlyn. I am a lifelong animal lover and have had pets my whole life. I am a vet tech, so I have plenty experience with animals with medical or special needs. I am comfortable giving meds in whatever way works for your pet, from pill pockets to syringes to injections to pilling. I currently work at a vet so I can get your babies immediate help if needed. I work at a vet Monday-Thursday, so I am available all day Friday-Sunday to care for your critters. I would love to take some furry friends for a walk or sit on the couch with them while their family is on a trip. I will respect your pets space first and foremost. Even if I am staying overnight and your pet is scared to be near a stranger, I will not force them. If they’re more comfortable hiding in the closet, that if more than okay, as long as everyone is safe and healthy. If your pet is a snugglebug and wants to touch me 24/7, that’s great too! It’s all about making your pet feel comfortable while you are gone. I am also experienced in different ways to administer medication. If I have any issues, I will immediately let you know.
About: I have volunteered and fostered dogs for a few years. I have three pups of my own and am excited to start a new journey of caring for dogs when their people need. Currently a part time nanny after teaching for six years, so I have plenty of time to play and walk with your pets! Drop off and pick up times unavailable: Tuesdays and Thursdays 7:30am-1:30pm Townhome isn't an option to pick, but it's a decent sized townhome and I own it! Community is not like an apartment complex! I have three sweet dogs to play with yours if they need a buddy. They are also not allowed upstairs, in case you have a senior dog or a dog who needs peace, your pup can have space to themselves. We have a community dog park if you're willing to let them use this (usually kept and empty). I also give lots of walks and snuggles! I am good with following a feeding and medication schedule. In the summer, we put up our temporary fence to allow for outdoor pool time!
About: I've taken care of cats and dogs since I was a kid, my own as well as, friends and neighbors pets. I love being outdoors playing and taking walks with my girl, Lilli. I’ve had experience with a senior dog on medication and know they need special care and attention. I will play with and love on your pet as if they were my own. I'm currently living on a farm and helping take care of the animals. My schedule is flexible so I'm able to help with notice the same day. I can do house-sitting as well as drop in care to feed and let dogs out, change litter boxes, play for a bit, then come back later. We can work out details according to your pets needs. I will feed, play with and take your pets out according to what you want. All pets have special needs or routines and happy to accommodate those needs.
“Katherine took care of our bunny, Basil, for a week while we were away. I feel like she really went above and beyond, and she is very communicative. I would highly recommend Katherine as an awesome sitter. Thanks, Katherine!”
“Rachael was so kind! We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! From the moment we met, we felt completely at ease. The photos meant so much to us. It’s such a gift knowing your fur babies are in caring, capable hands. Highly recommend!”
About: I am a Veterinary student at a local college. I have raised dogs and cats growing up. I do kennel work for shelters, and I am starting clinicals for school this summer to give me even more hands-on experience with the animals. I had a business in my old hometown, and I have references for pet sitting of different species (guinea pigs, fish, cats, & dogs, to highlight a few.) I have classes Monday-Thursday, with downtime between each class. I currently work part-time time as well, but would like to shift towards being able to do more things at my home instead, and this will give me a great opportunity to do that. I treat every animal big or small like a member of the family, and with the care that they deserve. I can easily create a dog or cat if necessary, but prefer taking the approach of giving them freedom to go where they please, (with supervision, of course!)
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for 50 years. I’ve taken care of up to seven dogs at once. I’ve had big and small dogs. All my dogs are adopted and some have had special needs. I’m retired, so I have plenty of time to play with your pups. I’m currently available to watch or board all week. I love taking dogs for walks. I have a fenced yard. Currently I don’t have any dogs but occasionally I watch my daughters dog. Even though I don’t have dogs I make sure all gates are closed and secured.
“Doug was great; he went above and beyond what was expected. There is some sibling rivalry between my two cats and he made sure both of them had a chance to eat by sticking around and feeding them in separate rooms if need be. He also kept an eye on the house, and kept me informed of any suspicious activity in the neighborhood, made sure our windows were locked, took out the trash, etc. He was very communicative and responsive. This definitely made me feel more at ease during our trip. When the Microsoft crash shut all the airlines down, he reached out to see if our flight was affected and said he could keep feeding the cats if needed. I would highly recommend Doug for other pet owners, and would definitely use his services again in the future.”
About: I have taking care of dogs and cats since I have been able to walk. I have worked at numerous vet’s offices as Kennel Assistants and have always had a cat or dog myself that I have taken care of and consider them my “fur-children”. I love all cats and dogs and would love to take care of you baby and treat them as my own! I’m available most mornings and evenings to take care of your fur-baby! I can help with walks during the day if planned in advance as well. I have a small backyard (not fenced) but am willing to take your animals around for a good long walk in the morning and the evenings as well. I have dog crates available for the dogs to be crated during the day (to board at my house they must be crate trained and be willing to stay in the crate when I am not home). I work only 10 minutes away from my house so I can make as many trips home to give them time out of the crate during the day as needed! I also have a spare room that could be used for the cat or dog to have their own closed in space if needed! I also have plenty of dog beds, blankets, dog toys, cat beds, a cat tower looking outside at a bird feeder for activity, and cat toys for them to play with! I also keep an extra couple of litter boxes handy, in addition to my LitterRobot for cats!
“Cassidy took the time to come out and meet my pup before the actual drop in and was very sweet and personable! It’s obvious she enjoys doing this. I’d recommend her to anyone in the area!”
About: I’ve taken care of animals since i was little. I’ve helped raise 3 liters of puppies. I know more about animals than i do humans! I love being around them and taking care of them. I have 4 dogs of my own! My availability is very flexible. I’m currently working part time somewhere but i’m spending all of my extra time doing this! and i want to have a career with animals so i will have my full attention on your animals!!

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 3,603 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Cottontown. 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 Cottontown 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 Cottontown. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% 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 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.
