“Michelle was just absolutely wonderful with Snow and Storm. This was my first experience with Rover and Michelle's hospitality has made me a satisfied customer. Thank you!”
“Tia came twice a day to administer my cat’s 12 hour medication schedule. One of my cats hisses at people, but Tia was able to win him over. All instructions were followed, and she left my house tidy, even taking out the trash. I highly recommend Tia!”
About: I’ve owned and taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember!

I consider myself very adaptable, and will work with you and your pet to make sure you’re satisfied with my care! Whether your pet needs hours of snuggles or play, I’m happy to be able to spend some time with them! I currently have a very flexible schedule to be able to cater to your pets needs! I enjoy waking up early and getting outside anytime the sun is out! I consider myself adaptable and am able to cater to most of your pets wants or needs. I don’t mind cuddling for hours, or playing and being energetic for hours, whichever your furry friend would prefer!
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 9. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to care for their pets while they were out of town. I have experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities of dogs from gentle greyhounds to energetic border collies! I also have experience petsitting multiple dogs and cats at once. I am a teacher on summer break so I have lots of time and attention to devote to your animals! I am available at any time of the day. I have a fenced in backyard and I live walking distance from a lot of great dog walking spots! I am also available to care for pets in their own home.

“Mandy was fantastic and took care of my two dogs very well. Kept them happy and in high spirits while I was gone. She played with them and gave them belly scratches. Great communication, and response times. Provided wonderful pictures every visit.”
“Courtney is great! My dogs love her and we have already booked her for more drop in visits next month. She is communicative, timely, and great with rowdy dogs. She followed all of our instructions perfectly. Thanks Courtney!”
“Shannon was awesome! She communicated extremely well and made sure she knew exactly what our dog needed. She sent pictures and updates every visit. She went above & beyond by walking him & picking up his poo in the yard. Will absolutely hire again.”
“Thank you so much!! I felt so comfortable leaving the dogs in your care. The check in messages and pictures were so nice! Daisy and Leo were happy and not stressed when we got home! The house looked like the dogs weren't even here :)”
About: I have had pets ever since I was born. My dog and cat are my world. I’ve cared for cats and dogs both young and old. This is second nature to me. I’ve watched over pets for my friends/family in the past. I currently work full time as a nurse. My pet care availability would be more of a part time/as needed situation. With my schedule, I would be able to accommodate evening hours. I am willing to take your dog for walks, let them out for potty breaks or feed/water them. I do have a friendly dog of my own if you want them to have a playmate and run some energy off. As for cats, I am willing to stop by to check food/water levels and replenish them as needed. I have also taken care of pets that have medication needs and mobility needs.
About: I’ve taken care of pets from craziness to laziness, big or small, I love em all! I’m excellent at rounding them up for baths, playing with them, going on walks or to dog parks to make friends, and most importantly, keeping them safe! If your pal needs a smile, I’m your gal! I’m currently working part time so I will be available 6am-3pm, Monday - Friday to welcome you and your pal into a fun, safe, and caring environment! If you need to leave me a list of do’s and dont’s pertaining to you and your pals needs, I am adamant on adapting to understand their boundaries, reading their emotions, and finding what they will/wont enjoy. Everything I can do, I will do to keep your pet safe, happy, and healthy so you never have to feel worried!
About: Hi! I’ve always loved being around animals. I’m patient, attentive, and understand that every pup has different needs and will be diligent in ensuring those needs are met. My goal is to make your dog feel safe, loved, and excited for our time together. I’ll always keep you updated so you have peace of mind! I am currently a stay at home mom and have availability throughout the day along with the needed childcare as jobs arise. I am free during the day for walks or check-ins while you are at work! I am a caring and patient person who loves all animals. My goal is to make every animal feel safe and cared for when in my care!
“Kristen was amazing with our cats! We could tell from the pictures she sent, and also how relaxed they were when we got home, that they had been very comfortable with her and were very well cared for. She took care of every detail, cleaned up every mess they made, and communicated with us all along the way. Truly one of the best pet care experiences we've ever had!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Pet Sitting in Eldridge on Rover is $24.42 per visit (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 288 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Eldridge. 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 Eldridge 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 Eldridge. On Rover:
- 96% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 100% 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.
