“From the photos that Caleb sends, it’s clear that my dog is very relaxed and happy with him, which is very important to me. Caleb has also been trustworthy and reliable over the last year. I’m so glad that he’s taking care of my dog!”
“Michael did a great job cat sitting our 2 cats.He scheduled a visit beforehand to meet us and the cats and to get information regarding their schedule and all the particulars. He is professional, dependable, and responsive. Next time we need a cat sitter, we will definitely use him again.”
“Jodie is spectacular, and kept our pet very happy while we were away. We would give her our highest recommendations and she’ll be our first choice for our next vacation.”
“We were very nervous to leave our cat alone for a week. Haley was attentive and patient during the meet and greet. She was empathetic to our nervousness and sent extra pics during her drop ins to make sure we felt confident Albert was doing okay. We especially appreciated the pics of his food and water. She listened and followed our instructions, made sure both locks on our doors were secure, and we came home to a happy cat and a home in perfect order. Will absolutely be booking with Haley anytime we need care for Albert.”
About: I am a friendly and dog loving person. I have three furry-friends of my own, Luna, Minion and Albus , which I have loved and cared for their entire lives. I have some basic dog training experience. I am home the majority of the time and look forward to working with pet owners in the Dixon area. I am currently a history student, mom and military spouse looking to make an additional income while caring and pampering your furry friend! Please feel free to reach out with any questions, and I hope I get to work with you soon and provide an awesome experience for your furriends! :) I have a fenced yard, crates (if needed per your request) , potty pad and lots of toys! A day with us consists of plenty of belly rubs, walks, doggy treats, wagging tails, and a lot of playtime.
About: 📸 See It for Yourself: You can check out Barks by Bryce on Instagram for photos and updates from past stays. Happy to answer any question you have 😀 I'm a full-time junior studying business law, so I have a flexible schedule that lets me give your pet real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. Your dog will be treated like a true member of the family, with constant supervision, plenty of affection, and a consistent daily routine. My mom is also registered on Rover and will be right there loving on your pup too, she calls herself their honorary godmommy 😊. 🐾 Small Group Boarding: I keep things limited to no more than 3 dogs at a time, including Storm, so every dog gets a calm, attentive environment where they can play safely and rest easy. 🐾 Senior & Special Needs Care: I'm happy to care for senior dogs and pets with special needs. Since these dogs may need extra attention or physical assistance, I'll work with you directly on the details based on what your dog requires. 🐾 Separate Feeding: To avoid any food guarding or anxiety, every dog is fed separately. I do have an apartment, however there is tons of safe and surveilled space to walk dogs and they will easily be able to go on mile+ walks if need be. My dog is another member of the family and I do mean that literally. She is treated as such and even eats at the same time as us (when she feels like it) and your dog will be treated no different than her as all pets deserve the best.
About: I have 2 years of pet sitting experience. I have cared for up to 7 pets at once, including both cats and dogs. Owners would rely on me for feeding, walking, and playing. I also gained experience administering medications to pets by mouth and through feeding. I deeply care for my own pets, so I would treat any other pet like my own. I work part time as a server, but in my free time I am available to care for pets. I have a very flexible schedule so it is easy to accommodate the needs of clients. I am always respectful of the clients home, making sure to clean up after myself and the pets. I always stay alert and pay attention to the pets needs.
“Jessica is a superstar! My puppies get so excited when she comes every day. She's been so reliable and flexible with my chaotic schedule. She's dealt with some incidents (mangled pillow, an accident in the crate, to name a few) with grace, care, and patience. I couldn't be more thrilled to have her watching my dogs every day. I know she loves them as if they were her own!”
“Nikole is amazing! She’s been our sitter for almost a year now but this was the longest trip we’ve taken from the girls and it was so stressful free thanks to her. She does a great jobs with them and communicating how they’re doing.”
“We have booked Elizabeth multiple times & have always been very pleased by her terrific care of our two cats. Elizabeth is unfailingly conscientious and flexible- I highly recommend !”
“Lauren truly went above and beyond for both us, and our fur babies. She walking me though the process of my first time on Rover. Then she really played and loved my pups like her own. Sending pictures of cuddles and spending any extra time with them that she could. We are truly grateful to have found Lauren♡”

Whether it’s a walk or a drop-in visit, I follow your pet’s routine closely and take a calm, patient approach every time. Your pet is in caring hands.

“Dominique was amazing! She met Zeus a couple days before. Each day she came by as scheduled to walk and feed him. She took the cutest photos and sent them to us. She even gave him some treats on Christmas Day! It looks like they had a lot of fun. He is normally very anxious and stressed when we are gone, but we came home to a very happy and healthy pup. Highly recommend Dominique!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crofton
Caleb is great, he’s are go dog sitter and I can’t thank him enough for watching our dogs when we have to go out of town or to some event. He’s great at making the dogs feel comfortable and giving them everything they need. 10/10 would recommend him to anyone and everyone
Talia was amazing! She took the time to meet me and Nugget beforehand. She took good care of my home and Nugget throughout the week. She had good communication and was reliable and trustworthy. She also took the best pictures of Nugget during my time away and I enjoyed looking at all the pictures every day 😊 would definitely rebook with her for my next trip!
Julia is absolutely AWESOME she went above and beyond to make sure our elder cat always received his meds even when he was in hiding 😂 My cats very comfortable with her and always happy to see her! She wasn’t bothered by extra tasks whatsoever she truly is a above and beyond sitter and an absolutely loving and animal loving person 💜
Heather was outstanding watching our two dogs and cat while we were away for 2 weeks. She is reliable, communicates clearly, and is very comfortable handling multiple pets. During our trip, one of our dogs had an unexpected medical issue, and Heather handled everything start to finish. She recognized something wasn’t right, notified us and with our ok took him to the vet, kept us informed the whole time, and took care of the treatment he needed to get better. Her experience working in a veterinary setting really showed, and while we felt completely comfortable trusting her to make the right decisions, she also made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way. We came home to happy, well-cared-for pets and everything in great shape. Heather is truly extraordinary and we wouldn’t hesitate to book her again.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Crofton is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $10 and $36 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 16,062 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Crofton. 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 Crofton. On Rover:
- 85% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 90% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 93% 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.
