“Elizabeth was wonderful. She was so kind to my dogs. They loved her. She also gave my one dog his medicine each day as well as walked them. I would definitely use her again. She is great!😊”
“Jayle was absolutely wonderful with our four cats. Each visit was thorough, timely, and full of care — we loved the photo updates and could tell the cats felt comfortable with her right away. Jayla handled their different personalities like a pro and left everything tidy. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets throughout my life, pet-sitting for both family and friends. I am available on short notice and excited to meet your pet. :) I have early mornings and evenings available for checking your pet. My work is somewhat flexible so feel free to ask me to drop-in even if my availability does not indicate I’m free! I might be able to make it work :) I care for pets the same way I imagine their owners care for them. I know being without their “parent(s)” can be stressful for many pets and I seek to fill in so they aren’t feeling forgotten.
About: I have taken care of dogs for many years. I have my own pup that is almost 1 year old. Then at my parents house we have 3 other pups and I love them very much and are the most important things to me:) I am a graduate at OU and in need of some puppy love! I am able to work bright and early in the morning before class and later in the evening after my clinical! I love and care for pets so deeply. I will do every thing to make them happy, have fun and play a bunch, and just making sure they are healthy over all!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats every day. I recently raised my own puppy who’s now a happy, well-behaved 1-year-old, so I’m very comfortable with puppy routines, training basics, and high-energy pets. I also have a 5-year-old cat, giving me years of experience with feline behavior, feeding schedules, and creating a calm, safe environment for more independent pets. What sets me apart is my patience, consistency, and genuine love for animals. I understand the different needs of young, active pets as well as more mature ones, and I always treat every animal with the same care and attention I give my own. I work full time throughout the week as a dental hygienist, that makes after work a great time for dog walking! This also means pet sitting is strictly weekends so I can give your pet my full attention ! I create a calm, safe, and pet-friendly environment where animals can relax and feel comfortable. I stick closely to each pet’s routine—feeding times, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision. Pets are never left unattended for long periods, and I keep their space clean, cozy, and stress-free.
About: Hello! I'm a dog-lover and grew up with multiple dogs. I've never met a dog I didn't like or who didn't like me. I am in the process of raising my own black lab, who is nearly 3 years old now. He is neutered and LOVES other dogs, but will certainly understand if your dog is more bashful. Helping with crate training and/or potty training does not scare me. If doing boarding, I have a nice-sized back yard for the dogs to play. My neighborhood is very dog-friendly and have multiple places to go nearby if your dog needs more room to exercise. Whatever your dog needs, I can make it happen! I’m very flexible. I work full time during the week as a teacher. Weekends are currently pretty free. I had no problem taking dogs during the week if they’re crate-trained. I can keep them in the crate or they would be allowed to wander the home with my black lab. I also have access to some great walking spots if they need more exercise.
About: Hi there! I'm an animal lover with a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals of all shapes, sizes, and personalities! Growing up, I was involved in 4-H and spent much of my childhood caring for animals on a small farm. From an early age, caring for animals became a huge part of my life. I've also had the pleasure of sharing my home with cats, dogs, and a variety of exotic pets throughout the years, giving me experience with many different species, temperaments, and care needs. Beyond my personal experience, I've also worked at an emergency veterinary hospital, where I gained valuable knowledge and hands-on experience caring for animals in a medical setting. This background has helped me develop a deeper understanding of animal behavior, health, safety, and the importance of recognizing when something isn't quite right. I love being able to bring that additional experience and peace of mind to the pet parents who trust me with their furry family members. I understand that pets aren't just animals; they're family. I want every pet in my care to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and treated as if they were my own. Whether your companion needs playtime, extra patience, medication assistance within my abilities, or simply someone to keep them company, I'm happy to provide attentive and compassionate care. My goal is to make both you and your pets feel comfortable and confident while you're away. I can't wait to meet your four-legged family members! I'm generally always available! I take time off Mondays and Tuesdays but if you need assistance then still reach out and I'll see what I can do! When caring for pets in a client's home, my priority is to maintain their normal routine while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved in their own environment. I take the time to learn each pet's individual personality, preferences, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special care instructions. With my lifelong experience with animals, I bring a well-rounded understanding of animal care and safety. I'm attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I understand the importance of recognizing when something may need additional attention. I also believe communication with pet parents is important, so I love providing updates, photos, and messages to let you know how your pets are doing while you're away. I treat every home with respect and every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pets are receiving dependable, compassionate, and attentive care right where they're most comfortable.
About: I have a pup of my own! I have worked at a boarding/daycare facility, feeding, letting out, and bathing dogs of all breeds and sizes, with the occasional cat, bunny, lizard, and even a parrot! I have also worked as a dog walker and sitter for a company in Kansas City, the best job i've ever had, but unfortunately had to move back home to Montana. My schedule included 30 minute walks, driving pups to dog parks and watching them play, staying overnight at clients' houses to care for their dogs (and sometimes cats) while they were away, and falling in love with all the pups that I was working with! I am currently available anytime I am needed! I'm very flexible and will be able to accommodate your requests, as I would like this to be a full time job!! I will treat your pet as if they were my own, lots of love and affection, as well as the high pitched voice they all love so much! I can follow your requests for their care, send lots of pictures and pupdates, and for walks, I will let you know when I arrive, and I have an app that shows where we walked and the exact time that I spent with your pup that I will screenshot and send to you at the end with the pupdate! My pupdates usually include whether they went potty or not, some little anecdotes from our time together, and lots of cute emojis🐾
About: i’ve had some experience with family members animals, but i can quickly adapt to anything you tell me to do. i’m quite the quick learner so if there is a strict schedule i’ll follow it to a t:) Friendly and reliable Ohio University student, available all week to watch and care for your pets. Energetic, responsible, and loving, I ensure your furry friends get plenty of attention, play, and care while you’re away. i’m able to handle animals very well, as some would say i have a way with them. i tend to bond quite easily with animals so they’ll give me no hassle

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 316 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Craigton. 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 Craigton. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
