“Talia clearly loves dogs and is a tremendous communicator. She did drop in visits for our dog while we were away overnight and it was seamless. We knew our dog was in great hands and would 100% use Talia again.”

“Jennifer is absolutely amazing in every way! She didn’t just walk my dog while I was away; she genuinely cared for her and loved on her as if she were her own. She consistently provided updates, pictures, and reassurance that my girl was happy, safe, and well cared for. Even though I have cameras throughout my home, I never once felt the need to check on her or question the level of care Jennifer was providing. It was clear that, to her, this was so much more than just a job. The peace of mind she gave me while I was away was priceless. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jennifer to anyone, especially those who travel frequently for work and want someone who will make their dog feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely loved. Jennifer, thank you for treating my girl like family!”

Alexander's attention to detail and professional communication always put our minds at ease. We didn't have to worry at all for the entire time we were gone. Alexander is our #1 choice to be our cat sitter anytime we are away. Highly recommend!”

About: I’ve had dogs for over 15 years and have always been very hands on with their care. I raised my Yorkie and Dachshund from puppies and cared for them throughout their entire lives. I’ve also watched other dogs, including Corgis, Maltese, and Beagles, and I’m most comfortable with small to medium sized dogs. My two dogs recently passed away after long, happy lives, and I’m not quite ready to have another dog of my own yet. I have always been an animal lover and genuinely love being around animals. I honestly can’t imagine my life without having an animal around, so caring for other people’s pets feels like a wonderful way for me to still have that companionship while giving their families peace of mind. I’m especially comfortable with senior dogs because I cared for my own senior dog through lymphoma, heart disease, kidney disease, and seizures. I’m used to the extra attention, patience, and observation they may need, and I’m comfortable giving medications, injections, or medication with food when needed. Most of all, I truly enjoy caring for animals and getting to know their individual personalities and routines. I know how much pets mean to their families, so when I watch someone’s pet, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and at home, not like they are simply being boarded somewhere. I work from home three days a week, so I’m around the house most of the time. On the days I do go into work, my office is only about a 15 minute drive away and my schedule is flexible, so I can come home when needed. I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine and will do my best to keep the same feeding, potty, walking, and medication schedule they’re used to at home. I want your pet’s stay to feel as normal and comfortable as possible. Your dog will be welcomed into our family life and receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision throughout their stay. My home is best suited for dogs who are comfortable around children and other dogs. We have a fully fenced backyard, and all outdoor time is supervised. This is especially important for smaller dogs. We also have a swimming pool. I understand that some owners may be nervous about a pool, especially if their dog has never been around one before. We moved here two years ago, and my own dogs (6 and 14 pounds) have never fallen into the pool. As a parent, I understand how quickly accidents can happen, so supervision is something I take very seriously. During the winter, the pool is closed and covered. During the warmer months when the pool is open, dogs are never left outside unsupervised. Dogs are free to relax in our living spaces and become part of our daily routine. I carefully supervise introductions between dogs, always feed dogs separately, and provide quiet spaces for rest when needed. Resource guarding around food is common, and I make mealtimes stress free by allowing each dog to eat separately without interruption. I usually host dogs from up to two families at a time, so there may be other friendly dogs staying with us during your dog's visit. Because of this, my home is a great fit for dogs who enjoy a social environment and being part of family activities. If your dog is shy, prefers their own space, or would be more comfortable without other guest dogs present, please feel free to ask about exclusive boarding. Depending on availability, I may be able to accommodate one-on-one stays at an adjusted rate. During holidays or busy periods, I may occasionally welcome additional families if all dogs are compatible and can be safely cared for. My focus is always on maintaining a safe and positive environment for every dog in my care.

“Marisa was fantastic, especially helping out on Easter! She fed dinner, spent quality time playing outside, and sent photos and videos that showed just how happy and relaxed our goldendoodle was. She was prompt, stayed for the full visit, and clearly put care and attention into every detail. We also really appreciated the meet-and-greet beforehand—it made the whole experience even more comfortable. Highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since I was a kid and I’ve helped my parents take care of them over the years. I am my mom’s go-to person to take care of her dogs even though I live almost two hours away. I will make sure you pet gets plenty of potty breaks, gets sufficient exercise by walking or playing, gets fed, and gets plenty of attention, pets and love. I work full time during the week, but I work from home on Mondays and Fridays. I am available from Thursday evening to Monday evening for boarding or house sitting. Outside of work, you can usually find me on a pickleball court somewhere, at the gym, or hanging around my apartment catching up on shows, movies or video games. My furniture and bed is completely pet friendly. I highly recommend the bed as it is quite comfortable and I encourage your dog to snuggle with me on the couch while we watch tv. My apartment building has a spacious yard, although it is not fenced-in. This means I will be walking with your dog whenever they need to go potty, which is fine because it’s an excuse for me to get outside! I am also a big fan of walks, so I will make sure your dog is getting out and stretching those legs.

About: Hi! I'm Casey, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember! I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, including eight dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, and goats. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I've gained years of hands-on experience working with pets of all sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I also have experience caring for rescued animals, administering medications, and following specific feeding and care routines. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing outside, or simply relaxing and getting some extra attention, I'm happy to adjust my care to what makes them most comfortable. My goal is to maintain your pet's normal routine while making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I currently work full-time remotely, which gives me excellent flexibility throughout the day. This allows me to accommodate different schedules and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship. I'm available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting, and I'm comfortable caring for multiple pets. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals. I'll treat your pets with the same patience, attention, and love that I give my own. I'm also happy to provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident they're in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I work remotely with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan visits around your pet’s routine and give them the time and attention they need. I follow your pet’s normal routine and your instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special needs. I take time to build trust so your pet feels comfortable with me, and I’m careful about secure doors, gates, and leashes. When caring for pets in your home, I respect your space and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know how your pet is doing.

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Devon

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Devon is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $18 and $39 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 October 2026, there are 9,689 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Devon. 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 .

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 Devon. On Rover:

  • 87% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 94% 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.
