“Diane was terrific with the 2 dogs at my place. I could tell by the pictures she posted they were very comfortable with her. So grateful for the care she showed to them.”
“Alicia did an amazing job taking care of my cats, including 2 ferals. I was worried about the winter storm hitting just after I left. Alicia was calm and reassured me that everyrhing would be fine and she'd be able to make it in. She made it twice a day, right on schedule. She fed, watered, cleaned litter and dishes and played with the house cats. Awesome job Alicia! Thank you so much for taking such good care of my family.”
“I contacted Jess (thru Rover.com) again because she was great w/my 2 cats the last time and I'm so glad I did. It was wonderful to come back and see that neither of them were traumatized at all! She contacted me every day and provided me with pictures. Jess went above & beyond and took great care of them! I left her a good tip and she deserves every penny AND MORE!!”
About: I adopted my guy Riddick in 2013. Last Thanksgiving, we said goodbye after a rapid decline of suspected lymphoma of the thymus. He was a good fella who kept me company on hikes in the woods, slept and paced with me during my 36-hour labor, laid and watched his baby human nurse for nights on end, and he aged into an easy going, sneaky snack stealing fella. I miss him, and I know I loved caring for him yet I am not in a position to have my own pet - so I want to keep your beloved family furry friend company when they need it most so they’re the best for you! In my time with Riddick, I’ve dealt with 2-3 hour hikes, short walks, yard clean up, oral medication, topical medication, baths and brushing, prescription diets, and more. He was a solid companion for the dogs I’ve fostered for local rescues, as well. I hope my experience will help guide you to make the best decision for your furry friend and family’s needs. I am not actively working full-time, I have an alternating parenting schedule where I have my daughter full time one week and the next her dad has her. I wake up at 4AM everyday for exercise, breakfast, and coffee. I enjoy filming and editing video footage of action sports in the evenings. I am available during school hours the weeks I have my child, and the other week I am available as early as 6AM until about 2-3PM. I care for them the way you need me to, with respect for their demeanors as well. If there are routines needing implemented, we will work on that, if they’re established I will stick to them.
“Shelby was incredible to work with. She was so communicative, responsive, and kind. She sent us photos and gave great updates. Will absolutely be hiring her again in the future. Can’t recommend her enough!”

About: I have been working in the veterinary field for six years now. I’ve been working with all kinds of animals. So I am willing to check in on anything from reptiles to dogs and cats! I currently work three days ( Thursday-Saturday). But I would still be able to drop in and checking on your pets! Can also make time to take them on a walk/ hike if need for the high energy doggies I currently live in an apartment so unfortunately I am unable to have other animals here. But I do have two very spoiled dogs of my own also have a leopard gecko of my own!!
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’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life. I couldn’t imagine a life without either. Animals bring me joy just like I’m sure they do you. I’ve been a volunteer at many shelters. I’d be honored to take care of your babies and give them the love they deserve while you’re gone. I would happily cat sit, dog sit, walk your dog, feed your pets and anything in between! 🐶🐱🤍 I currently have open availability any and every day to help you and your pets out! Let me know when and where and I’ll be there:) I live in a very spacious apartment that is pet friendly. I have a dog park on site. Plenty of room to walk the dog. I have an extra crate here if needed. We do have a cat but can easily place him in his room if needed to keep them separate. If I'm at your place, you let me know what needs to be done and how and it will get done however needed!
About: Hi, I’m Kris! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I have two years of professional experience working in a busy doggy daycare, where I was responsible for safely supervising and caring for up to 20 dogs at a time. That experience taught me how to read canine body language, manage group play, administer medications, maintain proper cleaning and disinfection protocols, and provide a safe, low-stress environment for every dog in my care. I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including puppies, senior dogs, reactive dogs, and pets with behavioral challenges or special medical needs. I’ve also fostered dogs in my home, which has given me additional experience helping nervous or transitioning pets feel safe and comfortable. At home, I’m a proud pet parent to three dogs and a cat, so I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your furry family members. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking buddy, a patient companion, medication, or simply lots of love and attention while you’re away, I’ll care for them as if they were my own. My goal is simple: to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, confident, and happy every step of the way. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! et care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already structure my day around consistency and animal care. I have experience managing multiple pets at once, so I’m used to building my schedule around feeding times, litter box maintenance, play sessions, and check-ins. I’m typically available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits and maintain a steady routine for each pet I care for. I’m comfortable incorporating visits into my day-to-day activities, and I plan my time so pets always get full attention without feeling rushed. Because I’ve worked in structured animal care settings and have fostered pets in my home, staying on top of routines like feeding, cleaning, medication, and companionship is second nature to me. Caring for animals isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I naturally organize my day around I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment in every pet care visit. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. I’m careful with home entry and follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, and any house rules. I keep doors secured during visits, monitor pets closely during interactions, and make sure their environment stays clean, comfortable, and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me. I approach each animal with patience and respect, especially shy, senior, or anxious pets, and I always move at their comfort level. My goal is to create a safe, consistent experience so pets feel secure while you’re away and you feel

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Crossroads is $26 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $24 and $26 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 849 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Crossroads. 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.

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.
