My dear Adriana. It was a pleasure to count with your services to take care of Scar and Nena. Adriana not only treated my dogs with love but also took care of my home and left it neat and tidy. Looking forward to work with you again since I saw how much love and dedication you put towards our pets.

My first time booking with a sitter for my two cats while taking a week long vacation. Ambroja went above and beyond to accommodate my girls and kept me updated every step of the way. So very thankful for her. Super professional, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for every dog I meet. To me, dogs are never “just pets”, they’re family, and I know how much trust it takes to leave a family member in someone else’s care. My goal is always to make both you and your dog feel completely comfortable, safe, and cared for. I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for them through every stage, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and gentle attention. I also have two years of professional dog walking experience, which has helped me become confident with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m very affectionate, dependable, and attentive, and I always take the time to understand what each dog needs to feel happy and secure. Whether that means going on long energetic walks, playing their favorite games, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them comfort and companionship, I’ll always care for them with kindness, patience, and love. I truly enjoy building a bond with every dog, and I treat them the same way I would want someone to treat my own. 🫶 Pet care fits really naturally into my routine because I have open availability and can adjust my schedule as needed. I’m flexible during the week and weekends, so I’m able to take on walks, drop-ins, or sitting whenever I’m needed. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I try to keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I follow all instructions carefully: feeding schedules, walk times, medications if needed, and any specific habits or preferences the pet has. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, whether that means playtime, long walks, or just being there with them so they don’t feel alone. I’m very clean and respectful of the home as well, so I always leave things the way I found them. Most importantly, I pay close attention to how each pet is feeling and adjust my care based on their personality, whether they need a lot of energy and stimulation or a calm, gentle presence.

About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since she was a tiny puppy, and I treat her like my own little child. I do the same for other people’s pets too - I love to give them food, give them some cuddles, and make sure they’re happy. And always remember to give your furry friend a special treat! As a remote worker, I find flexibility in my work schedule. I enjoy incorporating outdoor walks into my daily routine, which allows me to connect with nature and exercise while having the flexibility to do so with my dog. Through play, companionship, and nourishment. Will stay by the dog and keep the place organized and clean so it is a fair space for the house and the dogs

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and attentive pet lover with 6 years of experience as a dedicated dog mom. I understand how important it is to know your pets and home are being cared for by someone responsible, patient, and genuinely loving.

I also take pride in keeping homes clean, secure, and well cared for during house sits. I’ll treat your pets like family and your home with respect and care! I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, consistency, and care throughout the day. I’m available for walks, check-ins, overnight stays, and making sure your pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About: I have an 18-year-old senior pup who is still as active and playful as when he was a puppy, and I have been his main caretaker since we adopted him when I was 10-years-old, so I have plenty of experience caring for dogs and prioritize keeping safe and happy! We also had other dogs growing up, so I am used to caring for multiple dogs, dogs of various ages and sizes, and dogs of all energy levels. Specifically, as my doggo has aged, I have a lot of experience with medicine routines, slower walks, attention to health details, and all other requirements of caring for senior dogs. In college, I would housesit for families with all kinds of pets (including rabbits, geese and chickens!) and this helped me pay part of my school costs. However, I enjoyed caring for other's pets so much, I have continued to do so for years after college! I love getting to know new furry friends and making sure they are happy, exercised, well-fed, and enjoying themselves while their parents are away! I am currently working part-time, and often only for a few hours in the evening, so I have lots of time and flexibility to care for you pup, prioritizing being available for prime walking hours in the sunshine! I am willing to work around my part-time hours to meet your dog's routine needs. I am willing to care for the dogs in your home so they are comfortable in their own spaces and can generally keep their normal routines. I am flexible and willing to follow any instructions about your space that you provide.

About: Greetings, I’m Tyler, a 24-year-old professional with four years of dedicated experience in canine care. My journey began at a kennel-free doggy daycare, where I honed my hands-on skills in nurturing and safeguarding dogs. Prior to my transition to Rover, I participated in a boarding school program known as Hands-to-Work, aligning with the Shaker lifestyle. This initiative involved contributing to the community by tending to animals in shelters, exemplifying my commitment to service. As a dedicated dog walker, I take pride in my approach, which is distinguished by patience and a profound understanding of canine behavior. I firmly believe in the importance of recognizing each dog’s unique needs and preferences. During our walks, I prioritize creating an environment where it is truly their walk—I serve as a guiding and protective presence, never resorting to pulling or force. My commitment to gentle handling and respect for the individuality of each canine companion sets me apart in the field. Ensuring the well-being of every dog under my care is paramount. I am dedicated to providing a nurturing environment that emphasizes comfort, safety, and companionship. Within my capacity as a pet care professional, I emphasize flexibility, reliability, and trustworthiness as cornerstones of my dedication to excellence. If you are seeking a dog walker who prioritizes your pet’s well-being and tailors each walk to their specific needs, I would be honored to be of service. I look forward to the opportunity of building a lasting and positive relationship with you and your furry friend. I offer dog walking and house sitting services every day of the week, ensuring flexibility and availability at any time. My schedule allows for a dedicated commitment to the well-being of your pets, guaranteeing they receive ample love and care during our time together. Ensuring the comfort of every canine companion is my top priority. When entrusted with house sitting, I meticulously adhere to the established guidelines for each pup, facilitating neighborhood exploration and keenly observing their body language to ensure their well-being. Clients can expect regular updates, complete with pictures, provided every three hours, offering reassurance that their cherished pets are in capable and caring hands.

Vanessa has cared for my kitty, Boo, many times. This time, she came out to care for him in terrible weather: 100-degree heat and downpours. Always on time, reliable, and communicative, Vanessa takes detailed notes and lots of pictures, which keep me informed of how Boo is doing. I have complete peace of mind that my kitty is well cared for while I am away. I highly recommend Vanessa to care for your prt.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Edgewater

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Edgewater on Rover is $27.75 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 27,583 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Edgewater. 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 Edgewater 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 Edgewater. On Rover:

  • 88% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 92% 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 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.
