“Naomi is the best! We needed someone to check in on our Golden in short notice, and Naomi was incredibly responsive and flexible. She even went out of her way to make a quick meet and greet happen, to ensure a smooth/great experience for all. Our pup really loved her. Highly recommend Naomi for your pets!”
“Brenda was awesome. She was so attentive to my two kitties. Kai is particularly difficult for strangers to get close to and Brenda did it in just one day. Loved all the pictures and the updates. I’m also thankful that she took care of my mail and trash service as needed. Highly recommend!”
About: I've always had dogs and/or cats in my life, from babies to them aging into seniors. I enjoy all stages. I currently have two dogs, a Labrador and a Westie. I dog sat 2 German Shepards and a mix in my home until recently. I enjoy giving lots of love to cats and dogs, young or old. I'm experienced giving medications as well. I do own my own business which is closed Mondays, and most Tuesdays and Thursdays. I'm available most mornings, some afternoons, and evenings. If I commit to taking care of your animals then I will be there. I will keep the pets routine to reduce stress. Meeting with the clients prior to my visit to learn the routines is important to me.
About: Mr. Chips was my first four legged client, I was 10 years old and he was an energetic cocker spaniel. It was my job to walk Mr. Chips every day after school and then safely return him home. I loved him and he loved me. Since then I have pet sat all over the country as well over seas! I have experience with various types of animals; cats, dogs, birds, reptiles, rodents and fish. I had the joy of having my very own hobby farm, where I raised cows, goats, sheep, ducks, turkeys and chickens! My experience includes; feeding, bathing, administering medications and supplements, helping during birth, and other various medical situations. I have experience caring for show dogs. If you need someone to not only care for your pets but also your home/property, I can do this. I can water your plants, flush toilets, monitor the temperature and humidity of your home. Bring in your mail and deliveries. Turn lights off and on. I can also be available to take your pet to the groomer or vet as needed. My availability is completely open. I am flexible for long term or short term schedules. What ever works best for my clients, I am here to make your life less complicated! I have a lovely little home in a safe and quiet neighborhood. I am within walking distance to the beach which is perfect for long walks! My home has a fenced backyard where your dog can run and have fun. I will keep your dog on a leash when ever we are outside of my property. If you have cats there is plenty of room for them to hide and find solitude if need be, as well plenty of windows for them to soak up the sun! Other critters can be placed in warm open areas or away in quite darker spaces. There is a space for any type of animal! Or I can come to your home! I am a full-time stay at home mom with a 13-year-old son who is homeschooled. So we will be home to interact with your pet at all times. Your pet never has to worry about being alone in a strange new environment. We both are compassionate and empathetic people with a love of all animals! My home has a fenced in yard, we are home all day and night, so your pet will have our undivided attention. Can provide as many walks as needed, and there is a doggie door that can be used or completely shut off depending on your pets needs. Safety and love are our top priorities!

Naomi was everything our kitties needed and more! When we were on vacation for a week, Naomi checked on them everyday and gave them food, water, treats, playtime and attention! She handled all the instructions we had with ease, and her experience taking care of furry little family members shows.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Forfar is $14 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $21 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 November 2026, there are 363 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Forfar. 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 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.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

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 Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, 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.
