“Kami was wonderful and took great care of our cats while we were away from home. She gave them plenty snacks and provided us with a thorough report on the wellbeing of our fur babies. 10/10 would use her services again 😄”
“Felt very comfortable having Julie check on the dogs. Julie was willing to come to the home to visit with us before we engaged her services. Will definitely use her services again.”
“Brianna was so great to our cat while we were traveling out of town! She sent very detailed notes and kept us up to date on activities around the house during our absence. Highly, highly recommend!!”
“Luke is awesome! I would highly recommend him! We have two dogs, one with special needs (she is 2 yrs old and completely blind). He is prompt to respond, communicates well, shares pictures from his visits and takes great care of both of them! Super happy we found him to help us out!”
“As a first time client, Jenifer was very patient with me and Buck as we explain our routine. Jenifer was kind and reliable. Buck was a happy camper when we came home.”
About: I’ve watched cats and dogs in various sizes from 5 pounds to 200! I know how to train puppies and I’m ready to put in any work needed to make every animal my best friend and give them the care and attention they deserve! I’m currently only working part time on weekends so I have plenty of time to take care of your pets! I’m ready to walk, play, cuddle and take care of your best buds! I always respect others homes and try to leave everything as it was. Animals are so comfortable in their home and I always want to keep that and make sure they are happy and safe!
About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats since I was 5, my sister is a vet and I always have access to ask her any questions if something were to ever happen, I hope to own my own hobby farm one day! I recently accepted a new nail technician position in Richfield, and my current work hours will be Monday 11 to 6, Friday 11 to 6 and Saturday 9 to 4 starting July 6th over time I will be adding in more days. Any questions please ask! For my own pets I have a fenced in yard for them, I wash there faces and paws everyday, I feed them and bath them. I follow any instructions given to me by a clients, weather its about dietary restrictions, exercise requirements, meds etc
About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life and taken care of dogs since I was a very young girl. Starting at the age of 9, I used to watch my neighbors dogs when they’d go out of town. Now, I often dog sit and board my coworkers dogs when needed. My deep love for dogs has driven me to always find a way to care and connect with them. I am free for the summertime to give your pets plenty of love and care all day! With enough notice, I can prepare to board your pets in whatever way you need. I have an unfenced yard and two friendly dogs to give your dog plenty of space and friends to play with. There are plenty of toys and beds that my dogs don’t use and I also have 2 open crates if your dog needs as well.
“Tara was prompt, attentive, came out to meet us and our dogs prior to sitting with them while we were at work, and carefully completed all requested tasks. Our dogs absolutely loved her. She sent a LOT of photos, which was great. Would be comfortable working with Tara again.”
About: By taking care of family pets while on vacation, I’ve gained experience in feeding, walking, and providing individualized care as needed to babies and adults. As of now I am available weekends and weekday mornings, as I am currently working part time. I will make time to watch your animals. I will generally have a calm, friendly basic approach to taking care of your pet and follow your lead as far as schedules/ cares go.
About: Growing up I always had animals (dogs, hamsters, a guinea pig, a turtle, a cat, sugar gliders) and can’t imagine my life without animals. I adopted my pup right out of college, I know that sometimes it takes a village raising & caring for pets! I love dogs of all breeds, shapes & sizes ❤️ I have dog &cat sat for family members & love doing so! I’m happiest around animals. I’ve walked, played, fed, bathed, and have given medicine to dogs and am comfortable doing so. I promise to send cute pics of them too! I work very part time in the summers which gives me plenty of availability to stop by and love, play with, and/or walk your pet!! I will ensure your pet has food/water, is left where you’d want them (in a certain room, crate, etc), and any other specifics you need or want before I leave! Growing up around animals and having 2 rescues myself I understand that some animals need extra time to warm up &/or certain things (covered crate, routine, medicine, etc.) to help them feel safe and comfortable. I will work with you and try my best to ensure that your pet has whatever he/she needs to feel safe and comfortable!
About: To be completely honest, I was afraid of dogs when I was a child. But since my family got our puppy in 2015, my love of dogs has skyrocketed. Now when I see a dog, I have this intuition to pet them, with permission of course. So with my care, there will always be love in the air! A little fun fact about me is that I love to go for walks. So watch out furry friends, the feeling of being worn out is coming your way! I am a full-time student, however, I do have time during the day on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays to hang around with your furry friends! My time range is from 11-3:30. Or perhaps you’re stuck at work late in the night, and your dog or cat has been crossing their legs to use the bathroom, and I am more than welcome to stop by and take them outside any night of the week (after 6 pm)! Just like people, your animal should have food, water, and exercise. I will take your dogs and/or cats on walks and make sure their dishes are filled with water. And give them lots of pets as well, because what animal doesn’t like a little love?
“Cindy was amazing and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. One of our cats was a stray and hides whenever someone new is at the house. She took the time (and effort) to find him under one of the beds and just talk to him! The pictures and updates were so great to receive. Will not hesitate to use her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family's pets since I was young. Recently I have been pet sitting as many dogs and kitties as I can. I’m very adaptable and adore animals. I dance part time, on Monday’s 3-9, Tuesdays 7-9, and Thursdays 3-7. Other than that my time is completely flexible for pet sitting. I’m very tidy and will always leave the house better than I found it! I’m also good with cleaning up puppy/kitty accidents.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Dousman on Rover is $21.4 per visit (as of July 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 July 2026, there are 2,201 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Dousman. 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 Dousman 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 Dousman. On Rover:
- 93% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 97% 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 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.
