“***FIRST TIME ROVER USER**** When my normal sitter became unavailable, unexpectantly, I had no idea what to do. I was at the point of not going away on my vacation because it was about a week away from leaving. This was my first time using Rover, and my anxiety was through the roof about the entire process and the idea of a stranger coming into my home. I chose Marybeth primarily based upon location, her photos of her and her pets and her age/experience. Upon meeting Marybeth, her overall kindness and genuine, sweet, friendly personality put me at ease immediately. She listened attentively to what my needs were and my animals routines, without trying to change or judge anything. She was promptly responsive to all of my communication prior to leaving for my trip and the duration as well. When meeting (2) of my (3) fur babies kitties (only because 1 is a scaredy cat and won't come out for anyone really), you could tell immediately that she has a love of cats and taking care of them appropriately and lovingly. I left instructions for her and she followed all of my requests (even non animal related, like bringing in my mail and checking on my refrigerator door that pops open). She was even kind enough to check on my hamster even though that was not part of the animals requested to watch. Every day while I was gone, she was on time, left me a happy little note about the status of everything and pictures of all my babies. Personally, the fear/worry/anxiety about leaving my babies as well as just someone coming in my home was enormous, and Marybeth really put that to ease for me. (I know I already mentioned that, but I figured for anyone reading this, who is on the fence about hiring through Rover). I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, kind, sweet person to take care of your precious family members while you are away. She even returned my key promptly upon my return. Thank you to her again. I am forever grateful for her.”

“I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Alyssa was amazing watching over our scaredy-cat! She was great with sending pictures and updates; and helped keep an eye on our place (closing windows while it’s raining is much appreciated when traveling!). She was great and incredibly thoughtful while hanging out with our shy guy - both with giving him his space, while also giving him enrichment and love (bringing over cat nip and toys for him!) …he eventually started to come around to her which is huge! It was such a peace of mind knowing our cat was in such good care with Alyssa.”

“It’s rare to find someone who understands and cares for our cats -rescues and extremely shy-so well. She has an exceptional way of connecting with them, which was both heartwarming and made us feel incredibly lucky to have found her. Coming home to a tidy space and seeing our cats so relaxed was such a delight! we’ll definitely book her services again :)”

About: Hi! 🐾❤️ Animals have always had a special place in my heart! I have over 9 years of experience caring for my own pets and 4 years of experience with Rover and fostering. From playful young ones to senior care who need a little extra patience and love, I’m comfortable caring for pets at every stage of life. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality, keeping them happy, and making sure they receive all the attention and affection they deserve. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and happy to accommodate your pet’s individual personality, needs, and routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I’ll always do my best to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so you can see how your little one is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves adventures or prefers relaxing and cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! 🐶🐱💕 I am currently working full time Monday-Friday with fridays work from home and my hours are adjustable between 730-330 and will be available after 3 on week days and free all day Saturday and Sunday. I am also willing to accommodate if needed. I will do what I need to do to ensure yourself and your pet feel comfortable and do what your pet is used too in there routine and comfortable with.If this is a puppy I will help crate and potty train if needed. I do have experience with all sorts of dogs large or small. And cats as well!

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. I’m experienced with feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, brushing, playtime, and giving cats/dogs the space or attention they prefer. I love spending time with dogs and have experience caring for my friends’ dogs. I regularly play and interact with dogs, and I understand that every dog has its own personality, energy level, and needs. Whether they enjoy active playtime, relaxing walks, or just some extra attention, I always make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and safe. I work a regular full-time schedule, but I have availability outside of work and on weekends. I’m happy to provide drop-in visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, routines, and any special needs. I keep doors, gates, food, and surroundings secure and always respect your home.

About: I am a dedicated pet sitter with over seven years of experience providing loving care for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and breeds. Growing up with dogs, I have developed a passion for animal welfare at a young age, and have decided to turn this passion into a career, offering peace of mind to pet owners while they are away. I also have a German Shepherd Mix named Paloma, who is a sweet and loving rescue, but can also be anxious and temperamental in certain environments. Therefore, I am well-equipped with the knowledge and understanding required to care for dogs that require extra attention/accommodation. I have a full-time job, but can be available outside of my work hours of 7:30-4:30pm M-F. If needed and communicated in advance, I can be flexible. As an experienced and loving pet sitter, I bring exceptional care to make every visit special in your home, I'll follow your routines, manage any quirks with ease, and shower your dog with the affection they deserve, ensuring their comfort and happiness while you're away.

About: As a former caregiver for elderly and disabled individuals, I’ve had the privilege of not only caring for people, but also the pets and homes they deeply love. In many cases, pets are family — and I treat them that way. Through my work in home health and private care, I’ve provided daily support that included: • Feeding pets on consistent schedules • Administering medications when needed • Walking dogs and cleaning up after them • Cleaning litter boxes and maintaining pet hygiene • Providing companionship, playtime, and emotional comfort • Monitoring behavior and health changes • Maintaining a clean, safe, and organized home environment I’m currently working part-time so I have plenty to play with your pups. They also can have playtime with other pups if allowed. I have a fenced and two friendly dogs to keep your furry friend safe. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I can provide grooming and training services.

About: I not only love caring for animals, but learning all their quirks and personalities. I am very familiar with the patience and love it takes to care for seniors, and the space many animals want from humans (especially new ones). I am happy to meet them where they’re at and hopefully brighten up their day! I have lots of experience with giving pills, special diets, etc. as well. I learn fast and take animal care very seriously. I’m currently working part time and studying to apply for grad school, so I have plenty of time! I often am doing one of my many hobbies or spending time with loved ones, which can easily be shared with your little loves too. At home, I am vigilant about dangers for my cat when I am not around and triple check to make sure she is safe and she can’t get into anything. My main priorities are to make sure she is healthy, happy, and enriched!

Nicole was lovely when we met at our meet and greet. My cats warmed up to her very quickly, even the shy one. Whenever I need Nicole for drop in visits, she responds promptly, shows up on time and completes all tasks provided. She also spends extra time making sure the kitties feel loved while I’m away. I would highly recommend Nicole!

Nicholas was great. We scheduled a meet and greet earlier in the day since one of the dogs is a challenge. We had a drop in scheduled for later the same day. We got updates and pictures putting us at ease while we were gone for the majority of the day. Thanks again.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Crescent

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Crescent is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $44 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.

As of November 2026, there are 1,141 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Crescent. 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 Crescent. 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.
