“Kennedy was great! Very communicative and went above and beyond with cleaning up my pups mess both inside and out. My pup loved playing with her and getting some energy out while I was at work. Will certainly use her again!!”
“Melissa was amazing with Charlie my cat! All the pictures were above and beyond so I could see he was happy! I would definitely use Melissa again, thank you!”
“Holly was great! She is a lovely human and showed up on time every day to check in on my 21 year-old cat! It was really a mental comfort to know that my little buddy was taken care of while I was away. Lots of good communication, pictures every day, and Mocha appreciated the visits!”
“James arrived on time, left great details and photos with every visit, and promptly answered every question I had. He will be the first person I reach out to when looking to have someone take care of my dog while I’m out of town. Thanks again, James!”
About: I decided long ago I'll never live without a dog in my life. I'll treat your dogs as my own while they are in my care. Sadly, my two big dogs passed away this past year and we miss them terribly. I take special care of senior dogs, giving them extra love. I've also been teaching those close to me how to train dogs. There's no reason to gate keep that knowledge. So not only can I train your dogs, but I can also teach you everything I know. We begin our day with cuddles and stretches. I work from home and enjoy a half acre, fenced in back yard in Lakewood. We walk the neighborhood, as well as Crown Hill and Sloans Lake. I have a small home with a huge yard. My little dog lost her two big brothers this past year and we're looking forward to hosting your dog/s to come play and cuddle. She's a typical little dog who barks at you ~~ then cuddles you.
“McKinzie is awesome! She sent great photos and notes of spending time with our dog, who loves her. I appreciate how communicative, organized, nice and professional she is. This was our first time working together but not the last!”
“Maddy and their partner were fantastic. They took excellent care of all my pets (dog, cat and bearded dragon). They provided daily updates and pictures of all the animals. I'm pretty sure the dog loves them more than us 😁. I will definitely be using them again the next time we go out of town.”
“Angela was great with my cat Luna! I’m super grateful to have found such a great sitter. Angela played with Luna daily and sent tons of pictures of her so I felt really good knowing Luna was in good hands. I highly recommend Angela!”
“Michelle was fantastic! Very communicative, trustworthy and attentive. I loved all the photos and details she provided each visit. Will definitely reach out again next time I go out of town! :)”
“Gregory is a fantastic cat sitter! He was willing to do a FaceTime meet & greet and asked great questions before caring for our cat over the Holidays. He genuinely cares for the pets he checks in on and provides great photos. We will definitely use him again if we can, as it can be difficult to find a good cat sitter!”
“Aubrey is the best! She took great care of our 7 month old puppy between walks if it was cool enough and play time inside if it was too hot. We could tell how much Cali loves when Aubrey comes to visit her. Aubrey's communication is fantastic and above and beyond (even dealing with some of my brain fog from jet lag while I was out of the country with poise and compassion). HIGHLY recommend Aubrey if she is available!”
“Marissa is amazing! She went above and beyond for drop in visits, and she is soooo sweet and nice with our shy cats, kept us posted for all situations, it made our trip so much better since we were not worried about the cats! Thank you Marissa!!”
“Jessica did a great job taking care of my cat! My cat is older and can be grumpy, but she was gentle with her and fed/brushed her. Would definitely recommend her as a cat sitter!”
“Madison was great with our 2 dogs! She allowed them to warm up to her and they soon became great friends. Madison is a great communicator and took into account all of our pets needs during her visit.”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was little ranging from 10ths to 95lbs. I have cared for puppies and senior dogs at 15 years old. I love walking parks such as Sloans or Wash Park with the dogs, and I work remotely so I can spend quality time during the day with your pup as well. I’ve dog sat for my friends for 3 years, and I am excited to care for your furry friend next! I work remotely and have flexibility in my schedule so I can go on multiple walks or check-ins a day to ensure your pup is well exercised and cared for while you’re away I always ensure that pet’s leashes and harnesses are secure before opening any doors, and always keep them on the inside of the sidewalk while walking next to the roadway.
“Cory did a great job watching our cat moon! She left us with great photos and you could tell that she paid great attention to all of our directions. We’d definitely use Cory in the future when we need a sitter.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Edgewater
Darian is amazing! She looked after our two cats, fed and watered them. Our cats are usually shy around people but they both came out for Darian, it just shows she has a special way with animals. She went above and beyond and made an extra trip over to feed them when their auto feeder stopped working and was very communicative through the entire booking. We highly recommend her!
Miguel did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of my cat, Anakin! I couldn’t be happier with the experience. He was so great with Anakin, and when I got home, Anakin looked peaceful, relaxed, and happy, which gave me so much peace of mind. The house was also spotless and everything was just as I had left it. It was clear that Miguel took great care of both Anakin and our home. I’m so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy and caring, and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets. I would happily book him again!
Megan was excellent. You can tell she loves cats. I don’t like leaving my babies but when I met her I knew she was a cat lover. I have never had anyone that I didn’t know take care of them before. I truly felt comfortable and all was well when we got home. I would highly recommend Megan.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Where do I even begin! Crystal was absolutely phenomenal with our fur babies. From the moment we left, we never once felt worried or anxious about how they were doing. That kind of peace of mind is truly priceless when you are away from your pets. Crystal went above and beyond in every way. She took our dog on multiple long walks, keeping them active, happy and well exercised. It was so clear through her updates and interactions that she genuinely cared for our animals, not just as a job, but as if they were her own. We could not recommend Crystal more highly. If you are looking for someone who will treat your pets with love, dedication and exceptional care, look no further. We will absolutely be booking with her again!
Kim was amazing. Our fur baby mochi had a health complication and she did everything she could to take care of him and make him more comfortable including hunting through our house for his cone and making sure he couldn't lick at it. She gave them loves and was proactive with her care.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Edgewater is $21 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $36 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 13,656 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Edgewater. 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 Edgewater. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% 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 .
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.
