About: I am a mature adult and I have just started taking care of others pets. I have had dogs my entire adult life. I rescued Great Danes for a while as well as owing my own. I’ve had small to large dogs. Puppies & geriatric. I am skilled at giving meds. Most importantly, I want to just love your pups the way you would while you are out of town. I work from home so I am here all the time. If I do run errands I have cameras to check on the dogs while I’m gone. I am also available for drop ins for pets that are close to my home. I have a fenced yard. We have a great neighborhood to walk in. I recently lost my last Great Dane. I haven’t gotten another yet. My dogs have always slept in the bed with me. I will honor the owners requests. Most of the time I move their bed from room to room wherever I am going to be so they are with me. I have an area set up for food & water
“Dana was amazing to check in on our elderly cat while we were gone. She was so kind and considerate to all of our cat’s needs and was available to talk to about our cat everyday! We are so grateful for her! 💕”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and farm animals for the past 12 years and have experience in dog walking, house sitting, medicines, horse care, chicken care, feeding, and most importantly the specific needs for your furry friend. I’m currently a stay at home soon to be mom that just moved from New Hampshire I’m expecting with baby due in December. I am very flexible with days and hours! I have a fenced in yard my dog loves! I won’t be doing any at home boarding unfortunately my dog got into a dog fight and got the worst end of the stick but I will follow your care rules for your pets needs in your home :)
“I highly recommend Alayna. She was a life saver with her reliability and flexibility. I was in town for a month of work with a sporadic schedule and changes in lodging, and she was there every day I needed her without an issue, even with short notice changes. My pups and I were grateful we found her.”
About: I have over 20 years of experience with both cats, dogs, goats and chickens. I am a proud supporter of rescue animals of all breeds and backgrounds and love spending time with my animals every day. At this time I can do drop-in visits or daily interaction activities like playtime or walks. I am unable to provide any boarding at my home. I have a hard time leaving my fluffy friends behind so rest assured yours will get loads of love and attention while you are away. I work remotely so I have a flexible schedule to make sure everyone gets the love and attention that they need. A typical interaction with any animal is giving them plenty of attention, tending to their food or bathroom needs and making sure they get in plenty of cuddles, play time and walks (if they're a dog). I understand special dietary needs and understand that sometimes medications need to be given At this time I am unable to provide any boarding at my home. When I am visiting your home and animals I respect your space and their territory. They need to feel comfortable with me interacting and being around them. My goal is to leave your house as you left it so you don't have to stress about any unnecessary messes or surprises.
“Phoenix was amazing! He was right on time everyday, extremely patient with my wild bunch (I have 3 big dogs). My babies aren’t used to being with out me so we had a couple of accidents..Phoenix responded like a champ when I feel like some people would have said that wasn’t what they were getting paid for. I think my dogs might prefer him over me at this point because he gave lots of treats. Would definitely use again! Thanks Phoenix!”
About: Hey, I’m Caroline!😊 I have had pets all of my life including dogs(small&large), cats, and even guinea pigs! I would love to help care for your sweet babies whenever the time comes🩷 I currently work a part-time job at a nutrition shop! I usually work during the day, so no biggie if you need a night sitter! I am comfortable doing anything asked in your home! Whether it’s kenneling up or free roaming. I can walk them if you don’t have a fence or let them play in the yard!
About: I enjoy taking care of dogs. They all have their own unique personalities and are so loving! I enjoy being a calm consistent presence. I take pride in owners knowing and feeling like their family is safe, secure and getting the attention needed. I know leaving your pet can be stressful but trust me they will be left in great hands. I work in the education field so I am mostly available on the weekends. We have several breaks throughout the year, so I am also available during our breaks. I am able to follow any routines that mimick life at home so your pet will feel comfortable while you're away. Your pets are free to walk around my home, I can crate if that's your preference. I also live in an area where your pet can walk and run around freely. Keeping your pets happy while you're away is my mission.
About: With 7+ years of experience caring for dogs and cats, I’m confident handling everything from large, high-energy breeds to senior pets who need extra patience. I offer overnight care, stick closely to routines, and am comfortable administering medications. I believe pets thrive with consistency, attention, and a calm, confident presence — and that’s exactly what I provide. I have a flexible schedule and am available for weekday and weekend drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. I prefer drop-ins and house sitting, but I can offer boarding for pets that are friendly and comfortable around other animals. I prioritize consistency and plan my day to ensure each pet receives proper attention, exercise, and routine care. I prioritize a safe and structured environment for every pet in my care. Because I have resident animals, I only offer boarding for pets that are friendly and comfortable around other animals. Introductions are done carefully and supervised at all times. Outdoor time is always monitored, and I follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and home routines closely. Cleanliness, safety, and clear communication with pet parents are extremely important to me.
“Haley was amazing with our pups! She had great communication with us during our trip. All 3 of our dogs were very comfortable with Haley. Unfortunately it rained most of the time Hayley was pet sitting but she kept the pups entertained inside. We will 100% be asking Hayley to pup sit again!”
“I am so thankful for Angela! I booked her last minute on a holiday weekend for an early morning drop-in visit. She came to meet my fur babies the Friday before their scheduled drop-in which made me feel so much more comfortable. She fed, watered, let them out to potty, and stayed an extra 30 minutes to give them some extra play/exercise time out of their kennel. She messaged me as soon as she arrived, left, gave me a report on the boys, uploaded pictures, and let me know they were safely back in their kennels before leaving. Her communication skills were great, she did everything exactly as I asked, and I know the boys were well taken care of while they were in her care! We will definitely be using Angela from here on out for all of our drop-in needs! Thank you, Angela for your excellent care!”
About: I absolutely love dogs. I have a 6 year old Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Louie Vuitton who is playful and is my absolute best friend. My ultimate goal is to take care of your pup like they are my very own. Play dates, treats, and more! I look forward to making many lifelong "pupships"in the future! I have a love for dogs like no other. I also enjoy training dogs. I have experience training dogs to sit, stay, shake, fetch, lay down, and even roll over! Your pup will be in perfect hands if you choose me to love them! Thank you so much for the opportunity to meet and love your pup! Reviews after each booking are greatly appreciated! This is something that I enjoy doing so your pup will have my undivided attention the entire time he/she is with me. My Corgi is spoiled rotten and I plan to treat yours like my very own during its time with me. I do not have a fenced yard, but do have a dog park therefore there will be numerous opportunities for your pups to play outside and run around, and I have many toys that they can play with inside as well! If your pet has favorite activities please let me know and I’m happy to accommodate those.
About: I have had experience with both senior animals and puppies and kittens! I know how to care for, train, and be patient with animals! I am very flexible and caring! I work part time, but typically early in the mornings! I am off every weekend so I can take care of all your weekend needs! In my home, I walk my dog out on a leash or watch her outside, she does not run away. I will care for your animal however you want or need!
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was an infant, my passion and love for them is indescribable! 1000% treated as mine own, they are loved and played with countless times, throughout the day! I am currently a SAHM and have 3, 4-legged babes of my own. I, as well as my fur babies enjoy the company of other fur babes!! I have a large fenced back yard, as well as 2 large hand built crates (if needed). I am also a photographer and LOVE capturing the play times!
“Absolutely amazing yet again! This was my second time booking and Elizabeth was just as great as the first time! Punctual, very communicative, and overall just a wonderful person to your pets.”
About: Always happy to take care of your fur babies. I love playing with them and letting them know that they are loved. I have had pets all my life and looking forward to taking care of your animals! I have extensive experience with taking care of bigger dogs. Mostly rottweilers and pit bulls. I currently have two dogs and three cats. I know all abo8t making sure they are on a feeding schedule or if they needs meds. I will make sure your pet stays safe t your home. Nothing left out for them to chew on or hurt themselves. I will keep them safe.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Covington on Rover is $33.3 per visit (as of June 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
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 June 2026, there are 310 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Covington. 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 Covington 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.

- 100% 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.
