“Cayla was wonderful. We were in a crunch looking for care for our fur babies and she came in clutch. She was timely and loved and cared for them as we hoped. Thank you Cayla!”
“Elizabeth did what was needed to care for my cat. She made sure my cat had fresh water, food, and cleaned the litter box. Above all else, she made sure my cat was well cared for before leaving. I will definitely be hiring her again.”
“Erin was great. She checked in on my 2 cats for 4 days. She did a really nice job dealing with their personalities and figuring out what was best for them! I will definitely reach out to Erin in the future!”
“Ellen was very responsive, and agreed to check in on our kitties even without much advance knowledge for a holiday weekend. She made a separate trip to run through where the litter boxes and water bowls and treats were so that she was prepared when she was stopping by. We really appreciated her thoroughness!”
“Absolutely loved having Jessica watch over my little puppy. She was communicative and made me feel at ease while I was away. The pictures and updates were great. I would highly recommend her!”
“This is our second time having Lauren take care of our cats when we’re out of town. She is very easy to work with, her communication before and during the visits is great, and ahe sends lots of pictures! I would highly recommend Lauren 👍🏻”
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I grew up with dogs in my extended family and have always been one of the people helping care for them, so being around different breeds, personalities, and energy levels has always felt very natural to me. In the last several years, that experience has grown through having dogs of my own and dog sitting through Rover. I’ve now cared for 40+ dogs, from young puppies to seniors and dogs with special needs. I’m comfortable adjusting to each dog’s routine, personality, activity level, feeding schedule, medications, and whatever helps them feel most comfortable away from home. Our home is very dog-friendly. We have a large fenced yard with plenty of room to play, and we’re within walking distance of a park and dog park. I work from home Monday through Friday and am home most weekends, so dogs get lots of attention, supervision, outdoor time, and opportunities to settle in and feel like part of the household. We lost our sweet girl Stella in December 2025, and we now have Ellie and Pepper. Ellie is very used to having visiting dogs around, and Pepper is a playful younger pup who loves having canine company. Between them, visiting dogs usually have built-in buddies while they’re here. I genuinely love having dogs around and want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and at home while their people are away. Routine I work from home Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 5 PM, so Ellie isn’t left alone during the day. I’m also home and available most weekends. Our days follow a consistent routine: Ellie goes out first thing between 6:30 and 7 AM, then eats breakfast. In the winter, walks are weather-permitting, so most outdoor time is in the yard with plenty of supervised play. Dinner is around 6 PM and bedtime is around 9 PM. Visiting dogs fit right into this rhythm, with regular outdoor breaks, playtime, and lots of company throughout the day. I provide a safe and comfortable environment where dogs can relax and play. My home has a fenced yard for outdoor time, and I supervise dogs throughout the day since I work from home. I make sure all dogs get plenty of attention, follow any special care instructions, and have an stress-free stay.
“Xander was fantastic and was able to help me out on super short notice!! My cat got lots of love and attention and the photos were excellent. 11/10, highly recommend.”
“Kaitlyn is hands down the best! We were gone for a week on a trip and booked with Kaitlyn to drop by twice a day to feed our cats. She was very accommodating and took great care of our cats! Out cats might think she is their new owner now because she was so good to them haha. We will only book with Kaitlyn, she is awesome!!”
“Sarah was very loving and attentive when checking on my cat. She paid attention to the care details and provided great updates! I appreciated how much she cared and made sure she did a good job. Will definitely book with her again!”
“We couldn't ask for a more reliable and caring person and will definitely book with them again! Loved the photos, our dog was so happy. Allowed us to enjoy the wedding we went to.”
“Christy is so great with my cats. They are entertained fed and cared for while I am gone. It is a relief to know Christy is there to look after them and make sure they have what they need while I am gone. Thanks so much Christy. The cats already can't wait for me to leave town again.”

“Grace has been the best - she handles my reactive doggo wonderfully and the photos I get make my day every time; I truly look forward to getting the daily updates at work. 1 month of dog watching and I’m super grateful for her punctuality and flexibility.”
“Brilliant as always. My puppy loves her, and my skittish cats tolerate being in her presence, which is frankly more than I could have hoped for (usually they hide). Will definitely keep booking!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Crystal
Madilyn was amazing! She was super communicative and kept me up on all that was happening with my little guy while I was out of town! This was only my second time using Rover and it was a great experience. My senior kitty doesn’t like strangers very much and he did super well with Madilyn!
We have re-booked Cayla multiple times now and are very happy!! We sometimes have family check in when we can but at this point it’s just easier to have Cayla come, she follows instructions and is wonderful! Thank you so much for checking in on our kitties 😻 We have found our go-to rover 🩷
Ellen was very responsive, and agreed to check in on our kitties even without much advance knowledge for a holiday weekend. She made a separate trip to run through where the litter boxes and water bowls and treats were so that she was prepared when she was stopping by. We really appreciated her thoroughness!
Andy did an awesome job checking in our senior kitty. Instructions were followed, our home was left clean, and Andy took the time to get to know our cat, provide some additional treats, and get some play time in. We really appreciated the communication and the photos!
Maia took wonderful care of our cat, Princess Leia, while we were out of town for four days. She was an excellent communicator, keeping us updated and giving us peace of mind that everything was going smoothly. When we returned home, both our house and our cat were clearly well cared for. Princess Leia was happy to see us, but she also seemed calm, relaxed, and content, which is always the best sign that she's been in good hands. Maia's drop-in visits gave us confidence that our cat was getting the attention and care she needed while we were away. We would absolutely trust Maia with our home and pets again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter.

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Crystal is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $29 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.

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 Crystal. On Rover:
- 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 95% 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.
