About: Hi! I’m a Veterinary student with experience in animal behavior, dog training, pet handling, and more. I’m passionate about providing a safe, loving, and stress free environment for pets in my home. My veterinary education helps me recognize health concerns, understand animal body language, and ensure every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable care. I will care for your pets with all the love in my heart, treating them as if they were my own and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved throughout their stay. 🐾❤️ As a Veterinary student, pet care is already a big part of my daily routine. I am available to care for pets during both weekdays and weekends, and I can provide plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a secure apartment building with controlled access and a safe environment. There are several nearby parks and walking areas where your pet can enjoy regular exercise, enrichment, and outdoor time. I typically accept only one pet (or pets from the same family) at a time. I do not board pets from different households together, which helps prevent conflicts, anxiety, and unnecessary stress. This allows me to give each pet my full attention and ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and at home during their stay.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! I volunteer at animal shelters and used to foster dogs. I want to open my home to your dogs, so you can enjoy some time away stress free! I am new to Rover (as a sitter) but have been using rover services for years. I work a hybrid job with a flexible schedule. I can give your dog as much attention as they need. I’m home all weekend and love to take dogs to the forrest for walks or just hang out if the dog is low key. They can chill out with me while I do yard work! I have a fenced in yard, walk frequently and have a Bernedoodle who LOVES company. I have a sixteen year old daughter who also loves dogs. I can give medications and supplements. I have fostered many dogs, so I am very patient with them when they are uncomfortable. My house has many areas where they can have their own space and time if needed.

“I was able to find Jennifer quickly on the Rover app. I chose her by her profile and her close proximity to where I live. She responded very quickly to our request thru the app. She came for a short visit so we and our doberman could meet her. I wanted her also to feel comfortable with our large dog. We needed someone to come a couple of days around midday to fed, potty, walk and play our very active 8 month old 60 lb dog. We had her come for an hour each day. It was also the first time we were leaving her all day. Jennifer did exactly what was asked and says she looks forward to helping us out again. I know we will use her in the future.”

Not only did she take care of everything we needed for our kitty while we were gone but she went above and beyond to accommodate our kitty’s initial shyness and with Gionna’s patience and knowledge of cats, she was able to get her to come out and play/cuddle too!!! Gionna is so great and really helped us to be able to relax and trust our beloved pet was well taken care of while we were gone. Thank you so SO much again for being so awesome Gionna!!!!!!”

About: I've taken care of dogs since we got our first family dogs when I was 8 years old. Justin & Feisty were my first dogs and they were truly the light of my life from such a young age. I have experience with senior dogs as well from my time dog sitting for one of my neighbors. I love puppies and make sure to take them out constantly so that they learn that potty training is a serious business. I'm fairly active and love taking long walks and getting my exercise in, it would be fun to have a furry friend join be from time to time! I'm currently working in data analytics Monday-Friday from 9-5. Outside of that, I'm pretty free. I work from home one day out of the week and I am pretty free on the weekends as well. I am open to do night walks and morning walks as well. I keep a very clean space and love cuddling with pups on my furniture. I stay in a very close knit community at a Condo! There are other dogs around and there is a dog park connected to my community as well. There are plenty of places to walk around in my neighborhood and plenty of grassland as well. Pets are open to freely walk around in my home and are free to jump on furniture if it pleases them! I like to stay active and go on walks, however, I also love to stay in relax and catch up on some shows.

About: I love all types of dogs. I’ve cared for dogs for years by watching family members’ pets/house sitting and helping care for my own family’s dogs. I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday. Available evenings and weekends as it may fit with my life schedule. Depending on the distance, more visits may or may not be feasible. I try to stick with the dog’s normal routine, whether it includes walks or letting them out in your backyard. Also including feedings, giving medications, treat allowances, playtime, etc.

About: I’ve owned many dogs and have taken care of and pet sit for my family and friends. I really enjoy the company and the energy that animals bring. I will match that energy that they have. I am off of school for the whole summer. So I need something to do during the day so I do not go insane from not having anything to do. I love giving attention to my clients animals and make sure they are having fun and that they are comfortable. I make sure they have used the bathroom and I am also very good at reading the animals body language. I have been around a lot of animals as I’ve grown up.

About: I have a special way of connecting with every dog I meet. I've rescued stray dogs from the streets in California since I was a young adult, and I’ve had dogs of my own since I was a little girl. I volunteered with Bully Rescue Fresno in California during college and worked there for a year. My love for dogs has always been part of who I am. A close friend and former Rover sitter encouraged me to sign up as a sitter on Rover. She believes I am good at caring for dogs, show them as much love as I did my own, and that I'm a fun person any dog could ask for. So here I am, and I want to gain experience caring for dogs. I'm a deaf mom of three girls and two dogs. I’ve been staying home since my third baby was born in August and working remotely. My work hours are very flexible, so I can take care of the dogs as much as I can while I’m home. I have fence yard, two adorable dogs, and three young children. We all love dogs and are friendly here. I can take care of dogs while doing errand at home since im staying home.

About: I’ve been around dogs of all shapes and sizes essentially my entire life. I’ve dog sat for a multitude of family friends as well as caring for my own dogs at home extremely well from training them in their puppy stages all the way to caring for them in their senior lives. I genuinely love all dogs and would be more than happy to help love yours as well! I’m currently a commuting student at DePaul University in Chicago, meaning I travel in and out of the city most of the morning. However, my afternoons are almost always free and I have no classes on Friday’s or during weekends so I’m even more available during them. I help care extensively for my own dog at home as well as having experience caring for dogs in an overnight stay setting with various family friends as well, so staying overnight for a dog is no issue in anyway to me.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Crestwood

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Crestwood is $18 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $31 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 October 2026, there are 11,988 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Crestwood. 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 .

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 , 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 Crestwood. On Rover:

  • 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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 .

sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
