“Ashley really came through for us on short notice after we moved into a new city. Glad to say we plan to work with her in the future. She was a delight to interact with and the cats loved her. Set a good schedule that she followed and gave us great daily updates while we were out of the country. Very trustworthy and was great also for helping keep an eye on the house.”

About: With 2 kids of my own (dogs), I’ve become the friend that everyone trusts with their pets while on vacation. From puppies to senior dogs with limitations and even cats. All the love here. I am working as Behavior Technician part time where I have free evenings and all weekends available at the moment. I am flexible with the hours! I have previous experience caring for pets in my own home, and I’m now excited to offer pet care in the comfort of your pet’s home. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved when their owners are away.

“Shelby was awesome with my cat. She posted pictures at every visit. She was very loving and affectionate, and my cat just ate that up! Also, my cat is a diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. That was absolutely no problem for Shelby which gave me tremendous peace of mind. I had no worries at all with her caring for my baby. I would definitely recommend Shelby and will be using her again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats since childhood, and I also have hands‑on experience working with dogs in a shelter environment. I’m continually improving my skills as a handler and I’m comfortable supporting animals with different temperaments and needs. I pay close attention to medication requirements and administration to ensure everything is done safely and on schedule. I genuinely love animals and treat them with the same level of importance and care that I give to family. I am going to be working part-time and will have fairly open availability. Please reach out and I will do my very best to accommodate your needs. I will always ensure that the backyard does not have any holes in the fence or areas of concern before the pet has access to the outdoors in order to ensure safety and security. I feel using a leash is extremely important, especially when developing trust with a new pet. I'm not comfortable with taking pets to dog parks, unless this is a regularly scheduled event for your pet and they are comfortable around strangers and other pets. I truly would treat your pet(s) as my own and I am protective over my pupper, so yours would be in great hands!

About: I've had dogs in my home since I was 10, ranging from newborns to ten years old, so I do have enough experience in walking, bathing, giving them medicine if they request. I’m currently free for the summer! I go on runs twice a week, I love getting my steps in and I enjoy spending time with furry friends! I currently live in a cozy cottage in a gated apartment complex with my boyfriend. It also has an area for dogs, both big and small

“We had such a great experience with Mckenzie watching our two dogs and our cat again! She took amazing care of all of them and made us feel completely comfortable while we were away. Our pets were happy, well cared for, and clearly got lots of love and attention. She was reliable, communicative, and always made sure everything was taken care of. We really appreciate all the effort and care she puts in. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring with their pets!”

About: I have worked with and trained dogs since I was 12 years old. I have particular experience with German Shepherds, Pitbull mixes, Border Collie, Australian Shepherds, Labradors, and Rottweilers. I have worked with puppies, senior dogs and lots of dogs with behavioral and aggression issues. I have worked with super high energy dogs such as Huskies, Border Collies , and calmer bigger breeds, like Cane Corsos and mastiffs. I am currently a full time college student so my schedule is pretty open because this is my only job(although I don’t really consider it a job I love it) so I can pet sit on weekdays weekends mornings and nights and I am available to do quick drop ins, dog walks , and overnight stays. I cannot board dogs or cats at my own house but I can board reptiles. Since I have several animals of my own, I would be caring for animals in other people’s homes I can do overnight stays,I can do drop ins, I can do dog walks, and I can also drop by and clean litter or anything you really need. I also have lots of experience with different reptiles so reach out to me if you have questions regarding reptile care/boarding.

About: I have 4 kitties and 1 pup of my own. I have had no less than 3 cats my entire life, and am always helping the local strays as well, so I have loved cats of every type of personality and special need. I take my pup with me just about everywhere, so I have a lot of experience being out and about with a canine companion. My dog doesn't like other dogs, so I am also comfortable caring for pups that prefer not to be around other dogs. If you're looking to give your pup an extra special day out at a new park, I would love to bring them on an adventure! If your dog and/or cat is all about routine, I've got you. Playtime? I am so there! Or maybe your little one is a bit anxious and just wants some scratches and snuggles - I am here to make them feel safe and loved while you are away. <3 Whatever they need most, I am here to provide. I am a freelance graphic designer and illustrator, and as such, I have an extremely flexible schedule, so I can be available whenever it is that you need me the most! I always have access to my own car, so even if you need your pup taken to an appointment or to their most special favorite park, I am happy to do so. If you're looking for someone to stay with your pet all day and/or night, everything I need to do my freelance work is portable, so I can give your little one all the attention they deserve. :) I am the master of catering to the needs of all different types of pet personalities, as I have 4 cats and 1 dog of my own, all very unique from one another. As such, I am able to cater the care I give to fit perfectly with your little one's needs and routines.

“Madeline was an amazing sitter for our two cats! She was reliable, communicative, and followed all of our instructions perfectly. One of our cats requires medication, and she handled that with care and confidence, which gave us great peace of mind. She also went above and beyond by spending time outside with our cats so they could safely enjoy their courtyard time—something they really love. It meant so much to know they were getting that extra attention while we were away. We had two very happy, well-cared-for kitties. I would absolutely book Madeline again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and thoughtful sitter!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was around 10 years old, starting with my own family dogs and being responsible for feeding them, letting them out, playing with them, and making sure they were taken care of while I was home. As I got older, I started pet sitting for friends and family and eventually for people I didn’t know personally as well. I’ve also helped my friend Jade with her pet-sitting clients and have watched pets for a previous manager. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, overnight care, and following each pet’s individual routine. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, and I’ll always treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. I typically work morning shifts and am usually done with work by 12pm at the latest, which gives me plenty of availability throughout the afternoon and evening for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and overnight care. My schedule can vary week to week, but I’m happy to work with you to make sure your pet gets the care and attention they need. I know how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you leave for me, including feeding, walks, medications, crate routines, and any household rules. I want your pet to feel as safe and comfortable as possible while you’re away, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Counsman

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 4,027 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Counsman. 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 Counsman. On Rover:

  • 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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.
