About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a teenager. My friends, neighbors, and my family would rely on me to check on them. I would play with them, feed them, walk them, and sometimes if they have injuries I would change them and keep an eye on them while they were in my care. I'm currently not working at this moment. Im available from 9-5 during the weekdays but on the weekends I can do a couple hours if needed. I prefer the weekdays to be at the client's house and the weekends can be at my house because I have my kiddos. They love animals like they run with them and play fetch as well.

“Viridianne was great with our kitties! We have a cat who needs a little extra attention- asthmatic and needs medicine twice daily- she gained his trust and was able to medicate him with ease! Gave us a great sense of relief while we were away. Would recommend her to anyone needing a top notch sitter!!! Thank you Viridianne 😊”

“This was the longest I’ve ever left my cat, Jack, and I honestly could not have asked for a better sitter. Jack is extremely shy and nervous around new people, so I was very anxious about leaving him, but Nicholas was incredibly patient, kind, and understanding with him from the start. Within just a few days, Jack completely warmed up to him, which honestly says everything. I received beautiful daily pictures and videos, and it was so reassuring seeing how comfortable, happy, and loved Jack was while I was away. Because of that, I was truly able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing he was in such great hands. I came home to a very happy cat, and I’m so grateful for the care and attention Jack received. I would absolutely recommend Nicholas to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and reliable pet sitter.”

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of all kinds of animals! I took care of cows, horses, pigs, goats, chickens, quails, frogs, dogs, cats, snakes, lizards, hamsters and rats! I have always been a major animal lover and continue to be! I love spending time with my pets and for my friends and families pets too! I currently am remote Purchasing Associate for a national dermatology company. My shifts are usually about 5 hours long, which gives me lots of time to spend with the fur friends. I usually run my dog in the morning and evening, and spend time with her at the park and other places I go to. Sometimes Cardi, Boat and I just like to hang out in the yard and have a cup of coffee! I often take walks and go to the park and many other places. When I pet sit for my friends and family I work with what they have in their home. At my home I also have a long lead so they can safely play in the yard!

About: Pretty much not a single day of my life has gone by without being around animals/pets. Even though I am new to the rover platform, I have cared for animals my whole life and will treat your fur baby just like one of my own! I’m really trying to build up my clientele to make this a successful side business so if you give me a shot I won’t disappoint! I currently work 2nd shift so I am readily available most weeks as listed: Mon, Wed, Thurs = 10am-3pm Tues = 10am-1pm Fri & Sat = 10am-6pm Sun = not available None of those times are set in stone and depending on the situation I may still be able to work something out with you. I’m flexible so you just let me know what you need. Those times are just a general idea of when I’m available each day of the week. I will treat your home with respect and will follow any guidelines you ask in order to care for your pet. Safety is my #1 priority so I will always ensure I am following your routine of doing things to keep your pet free from danger (walking on a leash if you do so, not letting them escape the house, etc)

About: I have provided daily in-home care for pets, including feeding, fresh water, and cleaning litter boxes or pet areas. I have administered daily oral medications and specialized diets to pets with chronic health conditions, ensuring 100% adherence to care plans. I have managed high-energy or reactive dogs on walks by implementing positive reinforcement techniques. I have volunteered at the local animal shelter in the past and also used to work at a grooming salon! I currently have a job as a registered nurse but my schedule is flexible allowing me to care for your pets when needed! This is something I have always wanted to do as a side job because it brings me such joy to work with animals. I will treat your pets in your home as I would my pets in my own. I will make sure they are properly cared for, cleaned up, and well fed!

About: I've had my own fur buddy for almost 10 years. She has given me more than I believe I have ever given her! I know your pups are your family and I'll treat them as such! Love and kindness I am a student online at the University of Kentucky, pursuing a masters in social work. With that, my schedule is extremely flexible and able to be on call for your needs. Short walks, long walks, but jogs are extra! Haha, I'm kidding. You let me know the specifics of what you'd like for your babies and I'll be sure to accommodate.

“We have used Katie as our pet sitter several times now and are very happy with her. We initially chose her because one of our cats needed oral medication and her veterinary experience was a plus. Katie always lets me know if a package has arrived or if there are any issues at home. The photos are a wonderful way to check in on our critters while we’re gone.”

About: If you book with me I can assure you a safe, fun, and nurturing environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and expert attention for your loving animals. Peace of mind for you— paradise and tail wags for them! 💞🐾 I have extensive experience with cats and dogs. I’m 25 and I grew up with so many cats, dogs, reptiles, I have even helped rescue deer, owls, pigs, and goats before too! I specialize in dog training, I have been doing it for 7 years now and have loved every minute of it- it is my true passion!! ❤️ That is another great reason to book with me, since I am well equipped to handle the many behaviors dogs may experience during their stay, and doing it in a safe manner as well. I have trained and rehabilitated many dogs that had severe anxiety and aggression too, some of them eventually became service dogs because of how well they transformed into a better version of themselves! I’m experienced with many different breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs so I am well versed in knowing personalities and behaviors and how to handle them in any way. ❤️😁 If you book with me your dog will experience fun activities such as enrichment toys, puzzle games, walks on trails, public outings such as to stores, parks, certain restaurants. They will also get to join pack walks, play time with other dogs, and one on one time with me! And if your dog is a couch potato 🥔 they can cozy up on the dog couch and enjoy their vacation in peace! 🏝️🐕💛 If you book with me your dog will experience a safe, fun, peaceful environment to where they will be excited to come back again! 🐾🎾 it is the opposite of when they go to the vet and have their tail tucked all nervously- your dog will have their tail wagging in the wind and jumping of joy as soon as you pull into my driveway because they know this is the place for fun and relaxation!! 🥳🥰🙌 All activities are very structured here. All dogs are supervised at all times when they are not crated, and when they are crated they are supervised by a camera I have connected to an app in my phone! Things are very structured in a sense of safety, behavior, and peace within all of the dogs during their stay. That’s where being a dog trainer comes in handy and the dogs can have fun while being in a calm state of mind! 😉🧘‍♀️💗🐾 I have three large dog yards- two are fenced in with 6ft privacy fence, and one yard is 6ft chain link fence. They can go potty, play, sun bathe, play in the dog pool, or just enjoy the fresh air. This is also nice if your dog isn’t aloud around other dogs- they will have their own large area to do their business and enjoy their time outdoors in a safe private area too!! 😌❤️ Cats love it here too! 🐈🐈‍⬛ your furry baby will get to enjoy toys, lick mats, cat castles and scratching boards. Even some cat nip if they’d like 🤪😸, and plenty of cuddles to “make biscuits”. 🥰🐾 If your dog can’t be around other dogs or cats, that is no problem here. I have plenty of room to give dogs and cats their own private space to still keep them at peace and accommodate to their needs during their stay! I like to match personalities within dogs so they can make great friends while they are on their vacation too!! It is also no problem if your dog/cat is on any medications as well- they will be issued them as directed during their stay and I am well experienced with that as well, so don’t worry about that! ❤️‍🩹🩺🐾 I always send plenty of updates by text with photos and videos during their stay so you don’t feel left out as I know it’s hard to leave our fur babies while we’re away! 📲📸🥰 If you book with me I can assure you your fur babies will have a blast and want to come back for more, there is plenty of love to go around here and I hope to meet your furry companions soon! 💞🐕🐕‍🦺🦮🐩🐈‍⬛🐈💞 I currently am a dog trainer, though I am still flexible and available to schedule at your convenience! Sometimes my mornings can be quite busy, but I will always do everything I can to exhaust all measures in making sure scheduling you isn’t a problem! I have 4 dogs- 2 German shepherds and 2 shepherd mix breeds. 3 are female 1 is male. I have 1 male indoor cat and 5 outdoor cats. I can assure your fur baby won’t feel lonely with the company of my own companions!! 💞 -I have multiple different rooms your fur baby can stay in if they need their own private space. -3 large fenced in yards. -structured play time with other dogs and solo play time. -pack walks and solo walks -public outings/hikes -crated when unsupervised to ensure safety of all dogs -enrichment toy/puzzle time each day to mentally stimulate and help soothe your dog -endless cuddles and love to go around 💗🥰🐾

About: My childhood was filled of all kinds of pets and pups. My whole life I've always had at least 3 fury babies in my life. I was intrigued by how intelligent our pets are so I began to work with them. I'm very good with all kinds of training from pups, teens, to our grandparent's. I've trained dogs for a couple of friends as well as my grandma's farm dogs ( Great Pyrenees). Today I have four babies and they are all well trained. I have four large dogs that I take care of everyday. Once a day I take my dogs to the park for walks. we go on, hikes, swims, and we go to pet friendly areas for people connections. I would love to bring your loved one along with me. I have a perimeter collar for my hound dog and leashes with harnesses for my other three. I am very alert around my dogs . They are just like children you have to keep a close eye one them. My dogs are also inside dogs. I would treat ur dog like one of my own. Your baby is safe in my care.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Danville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Danville on Rover is $16.65 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 271 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Danville. 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 Danville 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 Danville. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.
