About: I am a college student athlete at UWSP & I have a lot of free time on my hands between classes where I would love to walk & take care of your precious pup! I’ve grown up taking care of my neighbors dogs & my own dog back home (I have a golden retriever & I love her so dearly) I’m available every weekday & some weekends (depends on my hockey schedule) Monday’s & Wednesday’s I am available anytime in the morning till 10 am & 4 pm till night. Tuesday’s & Thursday's 11 am- 12 pm & 3 till night. I’m available Fridays & Sundays mornings till 12 pm & 4:30 pm till night (if we don’t have games). Saturdays depend on if we play games home or away. My walking routes are generally in neighborhoods with quieter streets, so it creates less stress and more safety for the dog. I normally end the walk by finding a park or a large grassy area to play with the dog and give them more exercise. If the dog needs extra care to stay & hang out longer, I have a grassy front & backyard with a long leash attached to the house. My dog has visited my college house before & has loved every minute because my roommates are also big dog lovers!
About: Hi! My name is Kayla, I’m 18, and I have been around animals all my life. I have two dogs of my own, a 5 yo pug and a 13 yo lab mix, so I am well experienced with all different energy levels. I have plenty of experience pet sitting in my neighborhood, with dogs and cats. I even kept an Australian Bearded Dragon in my room for a summer! I will be working full time in the summer and from Dec 19-Jan 20th, but if needed I can be flexible with taking time off of work or during the rest of year, I am a full time college student so weekends work best but can be flexible, free most evenings, midday, etc. I fully intend to follow any and all instructions given by the client as I know every dog has its own unique way of going about things. I plan to check on pets as often as possible, and provide them with plenty of care and attention. My visits to your house to check on your pet will not just be brief water bowl checks and outside time, but more so spending time with your pet and giving them the love they deserve.
“Summer took the time to stop by and meet us and our cats before we left for our trip. We enjoyed the daily updates and photos. She even got our shy cat to open up to her. We would gladly use her services again.”

“Becky took care of my cats for a few days, drop-in visits twice a day. She was great; she played with them, pet them, gave them food and mixed in all of the supplements for my older kitty who has CKD. She even cleaned up the bowls and spoons afterwards. I appreciated Becky’s attention to details such as mentioning my cat’s favorite water bowl to moving my young cat’s treat puzzle in the room he temporarily stays in when no one is home so he had another thing to keep him busy. She provided rover cards at every visit along with many pictures. Becky also stopped by for a met and greet before she watched my cats for this first time. I felt comfortable knowing Becky was taking care of my cats while I was away.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 199 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Custer. 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 Custer. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 99% 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.
