About: I’m fortunate to have experience with a wide variety of animals thanks to my cousins, who have two cats, three dogs, a turtle, and a horse. I help care for their pets regularly, so I’m comfortable meeting the unique needs of animals of all kinds and treating each one like family. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently finishing up breast cancer treatment and have intentionally chosen pet sitting as my primary work. This gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I truly enjoy spending time with animals, and being able to provide reliable, loving care while I’m in this season of life has been incredibly rewarding. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. At my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard for supervised play, exercise, and potty breaks, along with plenty of attention, affection, and a comfortable place to relax. In a client’s home, I follow their pet’s established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any other care instructions. My goal is always to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

About: Please take into consideration the quality of your pet sitter over a low rate inexperienced "pet lover" that just wants to watch animals . There's a difference. "RATES LISTED HERE ARE BASIC RATES- THEY MAY BE ADJUSTED ON A CASE BY CASE SCENARIO (UP OR DOWN) DEPENDING ON THAT ANIMALS PARTICULAR NEEDS" *******IMO- ANIMALS trump most people 😁 I Specialize in special needs animals & alternative ways to treat that aren't offered by most vets due to my life long experience , I know what works. I also am fond on taking care of any & all animals including horses and farm animals. Right down to guinea pigs n snakes of all kinds. If you need dog boarding, as long as I have notice I can make myself available & home 24/7 ** I work M-F daily, so any animal I can work into my schedule is a great fit. I cannot do daily letting out of dogs unless I have NOTICE (deposit required) I am open to ANY animal watched in my home if that is preferential. I can also "stay" in your home outside of my daily work schedule I'm in a huge farm house, large yard and except for weekly job am always home for one on one. Im extremely close to my local vet and have dealt with many different situations.

About: 🐶❤️ I've cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities for friends, family, and neighbors, making sure they receive the attention and care they need. I provide feeding and fresh water 🥣, walks and exercise 🚶‍♂️🐕, playtime 🎾, and lots of love and companionship 🐾. I'm reliable ✅, responsible ⭐, and always follow owners' instructions carefully to keep pets safe and happy. Whether it's an energetic puppy or a senior dog, I make sure every dog feels comfortable, cared for, and loved while their family is away Free pretty much all the time especially during summer sometimes I have to make emergency trips to New York for short periods of time but not often! I have a fenced yard, huge backyard for the pups to play in and have fun as well as toys and more my neighborhood is pretty secure and safe. As far as pups being in my home they will be treated as my own food water the essentials many belly rubs playing around and naps so much more. I currently have a very small pit bull he’s very friendly and he’s just a baby so he’s harmless.

About: I’ve been a dog lover my whole life! With 2 dogs at home and plenty of other pets within my extended family, I’ve had years of experience with dog sitting. From overnight stays to simple walks around the neighborhood, I love to spend as much time as possible with pets! I’m currently home for the summer, so I have pretty open availability! I am free any time from morning to evening on weekdays. Weekends I tend to be busier during the evenings, but I am pretty flexible regardless. I will care for and be attentative to your pets as needed. I am comfortable taking pets on a walk, feeding them, letting them play outside, or just giving some extra cuddles as needed!

About: I have cared for a pet since I was 12. Have had dogs, cats, gerbils and cared for ferrets, hamsters, piranha and snakes. No pet is unlovable. I can walk, feed, or bathe your little one😊 I work overnight Monday through Friday, so I am available mornings for walking/ feeding, checking in on pets. I can also pet sit in weekends. Due to fostering a pit bull mix at this time, no boarding I am a wife, mom to three, foster mom to one and cat mom to two. Very dependable and will respect your home as I do my own.

About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.

Erica has babysat our cat Domino in our home several times now. Domino is a cat that we took several months to rescue earlier this year. Consequently, she is shy and a bit skittish around new people. She bonded with Erica almost immediately! Erica has two cats of her own, so she knows a lot about them and their finicky nature. Erica has a warm and caring nature that comes across in the way that she communicates with Domino. She calls Domino her niece! Erica is fastidious with Domino’s litter box and feeds her twice daily. She sends us regular posts and updates regarding Domino’s antics. Erica spends time with Domino and plays with her. We miss Domino when we are gone, but never worry that she will be too lonely without us. We feel secure when we are away. We trust Erica with having the keys to our home. We have the utmost confidence that Erica will take great care of our fur baby.

About: I was the neighborhood baby/dog sitter for most of my teens and even now I do the occasional dog sitting for a week or so for family friends. I have taken care of dogs ranging from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. I recently started fostering kittens and have a newfound love for those little guys too! I’ve owned bunnies and hamsters, watched a snake, taken care of a bird. You name it I’m sure I’ve had some sort of experience with it! I’d be so happy to take care of your critter too <3 I work from home! Rest assured your little buddy will get lots of attention in my care. If they have a more strict letting out schedule that’s absolutely no problem! I have a small mix dog, with two friendly cats. I work from home and can spend more time than the average person with your pet. I have a non fenced in yard, but am happy to take out on walks or on their leash in my yard.

About: My name is Hannah, and I've been taking care of pets since a very young age. I love going on walks, no matter what the weather is, I will walk in any kind of weather just as long as the dog will walk. I like to take my time and build the pet's trust, even when they are shy at first. I always make sure I understand the information that is given to me. I love it when a pup gets used to seeing me, remembers my car, and gets so excited to see me. I did move from IL to Indiana, and i do have about 4 acres to run around to get some energy out. I use to work at a doggy day care. I stay at home taking care of any animal that i have for a petting sitting when i do not have a pet sitting I try to look for walks to meet new pets I have a fenced-in yard and also have about 4 acres of land. I take the pups out to use the bathroom and run them around to tire them out

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨ We had a last minute worry about our cat sitting situation so I went on Rover for the first time. We were gone for a few weeks and felt really bad for the cats. We feel so lucky to have found Lisa. She ended up spending more time with our cats than scheduled. She also was able to fix the schedule when we had to make a change. There are other things that helped our peace-of-mind like turning the porch light off each day and bringing the mail in so our home didn't look vacant. She cleaned up before leaving. She left detailed notes and sent cute photos daily of cuddling and playing with our cats :) We will definitely reach out to Lisa for our cat sitting in the future.

About: I have an extensive background in professional animal care at grooming and boarding facilities, veterinary clinics, and educational institutions. I am fear-free and pet CPR certified and the owner of my small business, Passionate Pet Care where I consider the health and happiness of my clients to be my top and only priority. I graduated in 2024 with my bachelors degree in Animal Poultry and Veterinary Sciences and am currently obtaining my DVM degree at the University of Illinois at Urbana- Champaign. Throughout my many experiences, I have become comfortable working with a variety of breeds, sizes, ages, and health conditions. If I had to choose 2 words to describe myself, they would be reliable and attentive. I have a deep passion for animal welfare and I hope to have the privilege of meeting your little family member soon! I’m currently off for summer break so my availability is open! I am used to caring for pets on a daily basis as I have a 5 year old domestic short hair, Leo and I often help my parents and friends care for their pets. The safety and comfort of every pet in my care are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, personality, preferences, and any special needs to ensure they feel secure and well cared for while you're away. I closely follow all feeding, medication, exercise, and household instructions provided by pet parents. When caring for pets in a client's home, I treat the home with the same respect and care that I would my own. I keep doors and gates secure, maintain a clean environment, and provide regular updates with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away! <3

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Crete

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Crete on Rover is $16.65 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 9,635 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Crete. 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 Crete 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.

Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Crete choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.

While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

To find sitters in Crete with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Crete. On Rover:

  • 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 94% 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.

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.
