About: I am a true animal lover! Growing up with both Boston Terriers and Boxers, I learned to adapt to the needs of the individual animals around me. My beloved Boston Terrier, Dorothy, was with me from puppyhood until she crossed the Rainbow Bridge at the age of 16 in 2025. My current animal squad consists of two senior kitties and two large but loving rescue dogs! I understand all animals need a little something different, and they all deserve respect and patience! My goal is to make your pets as comfortable and happy as possible. I’m a mom to a toddler and am looking for a flexible way to earn some extra income while doing something I love. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I’m able to plan visits around my family’s schedule. I’m dependable, communicative, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet and their individual routine. Pets will be cared for with the utmost respect and compassion! These furry guys and gals are your family. They will receive the attention they want and deserve. All interactions will be based upon YOUR direction - what to feed, when to feed, where they sleep, etc. You may be at work or out of town, but they are still your baby and I will keep them in their routine.
About: We have 8 years old cat - Russia blue. Sometimes we feed our friends cats. More cats we take care of, the cats gain more trust in us. My sons has 2 dogs. My friends rely on us to feed their dogs. Sometimes we walk their dogs up to 60 minutes. We work full time. Joseph is available during weekends and Monday- Friday mornings. Angela is available during evenings and weekends. We can be available on some holidays. We will ensure that your pets are safe and we handle with a lot of care and love. We treat your pets like our own family.
“We are so grateful to Mahle for checking in on our puppy in our home. He became unexpectedly ill prior to the scheduled drop in visits. Mahle kept us updated and took such good care of our Sherman! Thank you Mahle!”
About: I have been taking care of many different dog breeds for years. My grandparents have pit bulls that I take care of when they’re away. I have an amazing golden-doodle named Tucker that I’ve taught basic tricks to. Along with family friends that go on trips I take care of their animals dropping in and making sure there fed, have water, and play with them. I am currently a student at RMU. I just love playing with dogs and miss my dog from home. I am a student at RMU I currently have class on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 10-11 and 1-3. On Tuesday and Thursday I have class from 8-9 and 2-3 I am available anytime that I don’t have class, To do any need. I will make sure that your pet has food, water, goes to the bathroom, any needs that the owner has I will fulfill based on the owners request apart from the basic needs for pets such as making sure they have food, water, and goes to the bathroom. I always love to play with my dog and give him a lot of love laying with him and petting him.
“We are so grateful Kaitlyn could drop in to spend time with our pup today. I had such peace of mind knowing that someone who knows and loves dogs was able to take care of my brand new pup! I really appreciated the detailed note/pictures she gave through Rover after her visit. It made me feel like my puppy was safe, content and happy! Will definitely book again!”
“Brianna is a wonderful person to work with. Our kitties loved her from the first second. Thanks to her attention to detail, great spirit, and natural ability to be our cat whisperer. I’d recommend her to anyone in the area and we will continue to work with her in the future!”
“Corinne M. was a wonderful, knowledgeable, dedicated care-giver for our beloved standard poodles while we were away. She is very easy to work with, accommodating to our changed schedule and a great asset to our constant quest for good pet caregivers. Thank-you, Corinne! We look forward to working with you again!”
About: I’m an animal lover! I not only grew up with several pets including cats, dogs, fish, parakeets, & hermit crabs - but I now have two cats and two dogs of my own. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to check on your pets when you’re in a bind. That’s why I decided to reactivate this account, to help others out! Pet services give me the pleasure of working with animals while helping out the owner. I enjoy running, walking, hiking, and play time, as well as just relaxing with animals. I treat every pet as if it were my own, with love and care. Availability : Mondays = After 5pm Tuesdays / Wednesdays / Thursdays = 12-1pm & After 4:30pm Fridays = After 3:30pm Saturdays & Sunday’s = Open I treat all animals as if they were my own which includes patience, love, affection, and gentleness. I’m also accommodating to their specific mannerisms such as high energy, size, disability, etc.
About: I have lived with dogs my entire life and have been actively responsible for their care for the past five years. Growing up, my household consistently cared for up to ten dogs at a time, including working dogs, show dogs, and family pets. I have experience with dogs ranging from newborn puppies to seniors and from small breeds to dogs over 100 pounds. I have assisted with six successful litters from birth through early development, helping with monitoring, handling, and daily care of the puppies. I am comfortable administering oral and injectable medications, maintaining structured feeding routines, and supporting crate and potty training when appropriate. I have experience introducing young, non-aggressive dogs to others in a controlled setting. I also regularly care for senior dogs, including those with mobility challenges. Currently, I have one dog living with me full time. He is a 35-pound Mini Australian Shepherd who is neutered, fully vaccinated, and has graduated from service animal training. My goal is to provide calm, structured, and attentive care so dogs feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently a student at RMU and run my own photography business, so my schedule is great to give me time to play with your pups! I am typically home in the mornings and evenings, with breaks between classes during the day depending on the semester. I am available for boarding on the weekends at any time with weekdays being after 5pm everyday but Monday and Wednesday. When boarding, I do not leave dogs for extended periods without planning around their needs, and I make sure potty breaks and exercise are built into my schedule. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on structure, supervision, and a calm environment. I maintain consistent feeding schedules, regular potty breaks, and daily exercise appropriate to each dog, with regular visits to local dog parks. Pets are never left unattended with access to unsafe items, and I monitor interactions closely, especially during introductions, including the use of cameras while out of the house. I have experience managing multi-dog households and understand the importance of slow, controlled introductions. My own Mini Australian Shepherd is well-trained and calm indoors. When boarding dogs, I prioritize compatibility and supervision. For cats, I maintain clear separation and provide quiet, designated spaces so they feel secure and stress-free. I keep my living space clean, organized, and free of hazards. Water is always available, and I follow all owner instructions carefully, including dietary needs and medication administration. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space as if it were my own. I follow feeding, walking, and care instructions exactly as provided, maintain cleanliness, and provide updates so owners feel confident and informed while they are away. I also run my own photography business, so I love capturing moments while pets are in my care and you are certain to get photos of your pet.
“Chelsea was amazing!! Our furkids loved spending time with her during our time away. She was very attentive and went above and beyond to take care of them and our needs while we were traveling. She shared many pictures with us and made sure we stayed connected to them. We would HIGHLY recommend her services to anyone who needs a pet sitter. We will definitely hire her again!”
“Cassandra did an amazing job with Nyx! I noticed when they first met that Cassandra used correct body language and techniques when meeting her, and Nyx took to her immediately! I loved the pictures and updates she sent. I was nervous to have someone new check on my pup, but everything went so well. Thank you for giving me one less thing to worry about on my wedding day!!”

“We hired Kelsey to care for our elderly cat who requires medicine 2x a day while going out of town. Our cat is very shy but took to Kelsey very quickly. She was punctual, meticulous, and went above and beyond to provide outstanding care for our sweet guy. She played with him, took outstanding notes, followed up with updates and pics, and ensured he got everything he needed. We would hire her again with no question. Highly recommend her.”
“Ryan was great with Rocket this weekend while I was at work. Let me know his arrival time and asked if there was anything else Rocket needed before he left. Would and will definitely use him again.”

I can’t recommend this amazing pet sitter, Sarah, highly enough. She cared for my cats (5) as if they were her own. Attentive, gentle, and incredibly reliable. I came home to happy, relaxed cats and regular updates, photos and videos, that put my mind at ease. Truly exceptional care. She goes above and beyond!
Carli was absolutely amazing! She communicates so well, treats your dog like her own, and is incredibly thoughtful. She kept us updated throughout our time away and made us feel completely at ease knowing our dog was in such good hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would absolutely recommend her!
Debra was absolutely wonderful with our two golden retrievers! She is reliable, timely, and incredibly dependable - everything you hope for in a pet sitter. Our dogs loved her from the very first visit. She provided detailed updates and great pictures during each drop-in, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s clear she truly cares about the pets she looks after. We highly recommend Debra and will definitely be using her services again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Economy is $19 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $13 and $25 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 2,517 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Economy. 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.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 93% 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.
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.
