“Peggy was wonderful with Luna. This was the first time someone other than our neighbor who has known Luna since we adopted her has cared for her. Luna immediately took to Peggy at our first meeting and was just as excited to see her when she arrived to take care of her. We already have her scheduled for another time.”

“Morgan was professional, dependable, and an excellent communicator. She showed my cats a lot of love and affection, and took excellent photos of them which helped me feel comfortable leaving my beloved kitties in her care. She kept the home tidy and cleaned up after the pets as well. She went above and beyond by bringing in packages and doing an extra personal favor to help out when requested. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I had a multiple dogs growing up, one who is 11 years old now, and also just became a new Fur Mom to an 8 month old golden retriever (who has put me through the wringer so far). I am an animal lover and just want to be helpful since I use rover myself for sitters, and i figured I’d be just as helpful as the many sitters on here have been for me!!

My schedule does change every week though I live in an apartment complex but have access to a dog park within the complex and will be able to take your pups to local dog parks as well

It gives us such peace of mind knowing they’re in such good hands. Highly, highly recommend!”

About: With over 20 years of experience, caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I’ve been around dogs since I was 7 years old, starting with family pets and eventually helping neighbors with their dogs throughout middle school and into adulthood. Even today, I still help friends and neighbors care for their dogs and cats regularly. I also had the opportunity to care for my own cat for 4 years, which gave me a strong understanding of feline personalities, routines, and comfort needs as well. After taking some time away in 2025 due to family circumstances, I’m excited to be back in 2026 doing something I genuinely enjoy, providing pets with a safe, loving, and fun environment where they feel at home. I currently work Full-Time from home - So I am always present, and able to keep your pet on a nice schedule regarding food, play-time, and potty breaks. I'm available Monday-Sunday anytime that works best for you My home features a downstairs area where pets can roam freely. Also my development offers plenty of walking space. Plus, there are many parks nearby that provide a great spot for your pets to enjoy some running time with my family and me.
About: I have had dogs my entire life; mainly German shepherds. In my adult life, I have rescued Pitbulls. I am capable of feeding, letting out/walking, playing with, sitting, and giving medicine to, if necessary. I learned to give fluids through IV under the skin to one of my pitbulls who was in kidney failure at the end of her life a few years ago. I am currently working part-time, which I am planning on giving up once I have enough clientele so that I can do what I really love to do. I will come to your home and take care of your pet there so that they are as comfortable as possible with someone new in their surroundings.

“Reina watched our dog and cat for 8 days. She showed up on time and never missed a check in with our animals. They were very happy with Reina and comfortable around her. We would definitely book Reina again!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Croydon on Rover is $19.26 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet 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 Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 9,240 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Croydon. 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 Croydon 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.
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 Croydon. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
