About: I have been caring for pets for 30 years. Not only my own pets, but our friends and families pets. I have rescued many dogs and cats over the years and even a bird or two. The pets have been puppies to seniors. I have trained many to use a bell at the door to go outside and go potty. I can do some basic training.. I have kept up with their training, started training for puppies being held for Christmas gifts, etc.I promise to love, care and cuddle your pets as l do mine. I have always been a stay at home mom since adopting my children. Now that they are 20 and 21, I’m just a homebody. I am able to tend to your babies 24/7. In my home, I will separate my pets as people bring in theirs. When the owners leave, I will introduce them one at a time. I can administer their medicine, do some light grooming, take on walks, and my schnauzer says he will let them play with his ball thrower. Oh, and pets will never be fed together.
About: I grew up with dogs and cats who were always my best friends! From big guard dogs to sleeping kittens I love them all. I began watching other people’s furry friends when I was stationed overseas in the military as a way to bring joy and a sense of peace to my routine, and I haven’t looked back since! I currently work full time, however I enjoy pet sitting/walking in the evenings and on weekends! I’m always able to leave work during lunch to stop in for a bathroom break or quick play time if needed. I’m completely comfortable with any and all pet species, ages, and sizes. I have experience with giving medications and would love to tailor to your pets specific needs/routine!
About: Dogs are my passion.A dogs happiness is my happiness. I currently work at a dog daycare/boarding facility and I have worked with training dogs, dog sitting etc for a little over 4 years. I currently work part time, and watch, walk and welcome dogs anytime after 12 on the weekdays and anytime on the weekends. Your pet will be more than welcome and I’ll accommodate your pet anyway I can. I have a fenced in yard, and two amazingly friendly dogs, also I can crate your dog if you prefer. I have a large kennel, or if you prefer to bring your own. Whatever the client prefers.
About: I have always loved all kinds of animals and have had a lifetime of experience with many different pets including dogs, cats, aquariums, and habitats. I am great at following instructions and will treat your animals like the family they are! I also work remotely, so I have a very flexible schedule! I currently am an online student, then I will be working remotely. So, I have an extremely flexible schedule and am able to care for your pets and keep them company! I have grown up always having numerous pets of different kinds and was raised to treat them like family. I will be patient and understanding with your fur babies and keep your house clean for you to come home to!
“Abby, with help from her family, was an outstanding pet sitter. My dog, Maisie, and cat, Laela, adored Abby and her family. My cat, Laela, sat on the couch when Abby's Mom came for an assigned visit in the same way she sits on the couch next to me to be stroked. Both Abby's Mom and Sadie, Abby's sister, were so very conscientious, and my interaction with them was delightful. If I were to go on another trip, which occurs infrequently, I would definitely want to hire Abby and the exremely helpful members of her lovely family again.”
About: I’ve had my own 3 dogs for the last 6 years. Before that, I would take care of my friends animals. I often dog sit and cat sit for close friends and family. Figured I would do it on here, too! I have trained all of my dogs, nothing crazy. Just the basics. One of my dogs does have health issues and another has really bad allergies so I definitely know what it’s like to have a certain routine per animal. All my animals needs are different and I’m here to provide that to lessen your stress ☺️ All day, all night!!! I am also able to travel. I drive a lot so I don’t mind if I have to travel a bit. I would love for the pet owners to give me a run down no matter what! Even if your animal is low maintenance. My dogs are high maintenance so I’m also used to that. I just like specific instructions, I feel it makes it easier for everyone involved! Especially if I’m pet sitting in your home. That’s your safe space.
About: Are you looking for a mature pet sitter/Walker with high integrity? I love all the animals, big and small! I will earn your trust and be the best sitter you ever had! I've volunteered at the animal shelter and always rescued/saved cats and dogs. I have experience of more than 20 years walking with various dogs, potty training puppies, administering oral medicine as well as I have given vaccinations. I work from home and make my own schedule, so I'm available at any time for your pet needs. I offer walks, exercise and play, drop in visits, and boarding at my house. I have fully fenced 6 acres of well maintained land and will play and exercise with your dogs as much as they want. I will send you pictures and keep you updated, so that you don't have to worry about your dog well being. I currently work at home and my schedule is very flexible. I choose my own time/hours, so I'm available at anytime for the pets. I have 6 acres completely fenced and well maintained property. I have a separate living quarters with heat and air conditioning so that I can separate your dogs from other animals if needed.
About: Update: I will not be available Nov 9-13 and Nov 19-29. This has happened to me and it is so very unfortunate I have to say this...If you have a senior dog, please let me know of any changes to their health!!!!! If you believe your pup is nearing end of life, PLEASE do not ask me to keep your dog. It is very heartbreaking and your pet wants YOU and needs YOU during his or her last days because YOU are their entire world. I love dogs!! I've fostered many dogs and volunteered at many shelters. I've had seniors and even fostered one with spina bifida. My first two loves were English Bulldogs. I have lots of experience with them and know that smooshy face breeds are much more delicate than other breeds. I absolutly love them! I'm not good with extremely energtic dogs, but can handle anything else. I am semi-retired. I currently work part time on Friday and Sundays with an occasional third day, so I am home a lot. I have plenty of time to devote to your pooch. In my home, I care for your pet just as I care for mine. Of course, with your direction implemented also. I do have a pool, so I will need to know how your dog is around pools, or if they have zero experience with pools, I will need to know that as well.
About: Responsible and compassionate, I am a 27-year-old dog lover with extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. As the owner of a German Shepherd for the past seven years, and through fostering and adopting other dogs, I have developed a deep understanding of canine care and behavior. I also worked for over a year at My Three Dogs daycare and boarding facility, supervising groups of 30+ large dogs. Passionate about animals and the outdoors, I bring reliability, patience, and genuine care to every dog I work with. Im free any day of the week for services. Im a big outdoor person and have a passion for dogs and what they are in need of. I have a big fenced in yard for your pet to run around in. My dog will also keep your pet company and occupied while I'm there.
About: I love animals (especially dogs). I’ve cared for tiny dogs, giant dogs and ones in between. I understand that just like all animals have their own personalities, they also have very specific and unique needs. I am an excellent communicator and do very well with instruction! I don’t discriminate from taking care of other animals either- cats, turtles, fish, bunnies.. I work remotely! So I am very flexible on my availability and can schedule and plan/ manage my time accordingly to meet per owner’s needs. I am open to caring for your pet in your home however is needed! Walking, feeding, bathing/ brushing, medicating, unlimited pets etc. I do love to play - so if you have a fenced in yard / prepare to have tired pups!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dalzell is $19 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 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 742 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dalzell. 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.

- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 93% 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 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.
