About: I have plenty of references and experience with pet care. Growing up, I always had a dog and cat in the home. Currently, I live in an apartment and can’t get a dog. My boyfriend is allergic to cats, so I can’t get a cat either 😢 But I have plenty of friends and family who I have given pet care to. I can read animals pretty well and always prioritize their needs. I currently work full time but would love to use any extra time I have to help out your family. I work 3pm-11pm Sunday-Thursday. I am available all weekends unless my calendar says otherwise. When it comes to caring for pets, I prioritize their needs and make sure they have everything needed. I like to keep the parents in the know of how they are doing and update with pictures as often as possible 😊

About: Hello! I’m Jess, and I provide specialized walking and drop-in visits across the Catskill, Hudson, and greater Columbia/Greene County area. I don’t just walk dogs; I use every visit as an opportunity to build confidence, improve focus, and reinforce leash manners. My approach is built entirely on modern, science based Positive Reinforcement and LIMA (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive) principles. I believe in rewarding behaviors we want to see, helping dogs learn safely, without the use of intimidation or aversive tools. I am currently completing dog training and behavior studies through the CATCH Academy curriculum. This ongoing education ensures your dog is in the hands of an informed and committed professional. I currently work during the week and offer weekend availability if you’re looking for a sitter while you take a weekend to getaway and relax without having to worry about your pets. I focus on leash manners during every walk to ensure a pleasant and comfortable experience. I can work with dogs on impulse control skills to help reduce pulling through positive reinforcement and force free training methods. If your dog has any triggers I will work to maintain distance and reward when calm to ensure success and keep stress to a minimum for your pup.

About: I have taken care of all different types of pets since I was young. I’m very comfortable administering medication to those who need it, playing with the young energetic animals, and being sensitive to older ones who may need extra care. I currently work full-time but I am one a hybrid schedule so I am home all day on Monday, Thursday, and Friday. I usually have things to do on the weekends but with enough notice I can certainly work around that. I have one 3 year old cat who is very friendly, quiet, and a bit of a cuddle bug. He is comfortable with other dogs and cats. I have a fenced in porch and a walkable safe neighborhood.

About: I have taken care of my own dogs (and cats) for over 20 years now. Along the way, friends, and family members have trusted me with taking care of their furry friends! Including walking, feeding, bathing, training, and of course playing with them! I work a full time job with flexible hours, I take care of pets in my free time just because of my love for pets! The only required time I have is from 9am-1pm on Sundays, othere then that there should be no contentions with my schedule. In my own apartment, there is currently a cat, he is very friendly and gets along and plays with others. In most cases, I travel and care for pets at the clients house (especially for overnight and long term stays.)

About: Hi! 🐾❤️ Animals have always had a special place in my heart! I have over 9 years of experience caring for my own pets and 4 years of experience with Rover and fostering. From playful young ones to senior care who need a little extra patience and love, I’m comfortable caring for pets at every stage of life. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own. My goal is to make your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality, keeping them happy, and making sure they receive all the attention and affection they deserve. I’m responsible, patient, attentive, and happy to accommodate your pet’s individual personality, needs, and routine. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, so I’ll always do my best to give you peace of mind while you’re away. I’m also happy to send regular photo updates so you can see how your little one is doing. Whether your pet is energetic and loves adventures or prefers relaxing and cuddling on the couch, I’ll make sure they get the care and attention they deserve. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies! 🐶🐱💕 I am currently working full time Monday-Friday with fridays work from home and my hours are adjustable between 730-330 and will be available after 3 on week days and free all day Saturday and Sunday. I am also willing to accommodate if needed. I will do what I need to do to ensure yourself and your pet feel comfortable and do what your pet is used too in there routine and comfortable with.If this is a puppy I will help crate and potty train if needed. I do have experience with all sorts of dogs large or small. And cats as well!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Dormansville

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Pet Sitting in Dormansville is $39 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $49 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 1,030 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dormansville. 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 Dormansville. On Rover:

  • 89% 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 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.
