“I’m so grateful to have found someone I not only trust, but more importantly, that my dog trusts. My pup can be protective of his home, and Heather built trust with him right from the start. She took the time to understand his personality and made each visit a chance to build confidence, have fun, and sneak in a little training too. Now he waits by the door and watches out the window hoping Heather will be back soon! She’s incredibly communicative, lighthearted, and just so easy to work with. Finding someone who genuinely cares and connects like this is rare, and I can’t recommend her enough.”
“Chantal did an exceptional job caring for my 3 babies. She went above and beyond in every way, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her care. My dogs absolutely loved her, and she treated them with so much love, patience, and attention. She did everything and more, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and truly amazing with pets.”
“Lindsey is extremely kind, prompt and very meticulous about her work with animals. Our dogs both enjoyed their time with her, especially our boy Max who was treated to a walk to his favorite location in Martinsburg. We are looking forward to future visits with Lindsey, and would definitely recommend her. 😊”
“Lauren was very professional and communicated and and all issues promptly. My cats were well taken care of and when my work got extended a week, it was seemless to get the pet sitting services extended. 100% positive experience for the first time with Lauren as the pet sitter and with Rover!”
“This was our first time with Olivia looking after our cat, and we will for sure be contacting her again! Super responsive, provided lots of updates and pictures, overall fantastic sitter. Thank you for taking great care of Hannah!”

“My cats are shy and one is special needs, but they all seemed to warm up to Karen quickly! She took exceptional care of them and all was well when we returned. Thank you!”
“Alexia was the best! Very professional and caring. She watched our (anxious) hound when we were on vacation in Harper’s Ferry. We are from another state, didn’t know the area and didn’t have definite plans until we arrived. Alexia was flexible and understanding. She responded to text quickly and followed all directions. Most importantly our dog loved her! She is a gem. Highly recommend!!”
“I am so thankful for Sarah! My maltese senior is best described as "high maintenance". I had a long day out of the house and was super worried about him being alone. Sarah came for a visit, gave him his strawberries and Pup Cup, spent some time with him and sent me a photo. <3 When I got home that evening, I found him contently sleeping on his blanket. Exactly as I had hoped!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Douglas Grove
Casey has been absolutely wonderful with my very timid doodle. She cares for his needs and he’s opened up to her in the days that she is there. Casey came to the home and met with Tod before hand and made sure she asked enough questions to understand him and his quirks. Official did my first rebook with Casey after a first week of great service.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,392 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Douglas Grove. 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 Douglas Grove. On Rover:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% 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.
