“Alexia was absolutely amazing! She was incredibly kind, responsive, and flexible with our schedule, which made everything so easy and stress-free. Most importantly, you could tell she genuinely cared about our pets and treated them like they were her own. She spent so much time playing with our cats and making sure they were happy and comfortable while we were away. She even went above and beyond by helping with the vacuum, water fountain, and Litter-Robot, which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets and home were in such great hands. We would absolutely recommend Alexia and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter for 10 years including fostering dogs and cats in the past. I have my own fur babies as well and love them so much. I’m currently working from home so available at all times for anything the pet needs. I have an 11 year old that also helps out as well. I have a fenced in yard with my own friendly dogs. They are great with other animals but they are also crate trained so I can keep them separated if needed

About: I’m a reliable and responsible pet sitter who genuinely enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. I understand that pets are family, so I treat every animal with the same care and attention I would give my own. I provide dependable services including feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship, while keeping your pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, whether that’s high-energy exercise or calm, gentle care. You can expect clear communication and regular updates, including photos, so you always know your pet is in good hands. I pride myself on being punctual, trustworthy, and easy to work with, and I aim to build long-term relationships with both pets and their owners. I work a hybrid full-time schedule, which allows me to be home frequently throughout the week. This gives me plenty of time to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship for your pet during the day. I’m available for morning, midday, and evening care, as well as weekends. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific needs your pet may have. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully enclosed acre backyard, providing plenty of secure space for dogs to run, play, and get exercise in a safe environment. Inside, I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-friendly home where animals can relax and feel comfortable. I closely follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, exercise, and any special instructions, and I always supervise outdoor time. I can also accommodate crate training if needed. You’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can feel confident your pet is safe, active, and well cared for while you’re away.

Saturday I’m free all day, I’m free Sunday in the morning until 10am and available after 1pm to the rest of the day I feed, bathe, and give them water and take care of all basic necessities. I take them on walks and to the park and give them lots of cuddles! :D

About: 🐾 About Me: A Calm, Patient Sanctuary for Your Fur Babies Hi, I’m Noelle! I’m a proud cat mom to two wonderful fur babies, and caring for animals is something that genuinely brings me joy. One of my cats was actually a 4-week-old stray kitten that I successfully nursed and cared for, and watching her grow into the happy, healthy cat she is today has been incredibly rewarding. I also absolutely love dogs! I have experience walking dogs as large as a Pit Bull, including my aunt’s sweet Pit Bull, Zion, who I loved taking on walks. Whether I’m giving a dog a good walk, keeping a cat company, or simply sitting nearby while they do their own thing, I love being able to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. One of my favorite things to do with my own cats is sit on the balcony with them (safely on their leashes, of course!) and watch their curious little minds take in the world around them. 🌟 Specializing in Shy, Anxious, or Senior Care I’m very attentive to the animals in my care and tend to notice the little things—from changes in behavior and body language to their individual cues, comfort levels, and boundaries. I believe every pet has their own personality and deserves patience, respect, affection, and care tailored specifically to them. Because of this, I excel with pets who need a little extra time, gentleness, or understanding to feel secure: • Timid Kittens & Selective Cats: As a cat parent who has handled everything from bottle-baby stages to adult dynamics, I speak their language fluently and am completely comfortable letting a shy cat set the pace. • Anxious or Senior Pups: I hold a naturally quiet, steady frequency that is incredibly reassuring to older dogs or pets navigating physical vulnerabilities (like vision or hearing changes) who thrive on a predictable, soothing routine rather than high-energy chaos. 🏡 What I Offer Whether it’s dropping in for quiet companionship, sticking to precise feeding schedules, or managing house-sitting stays, I bring a reliable, observant, and respectful eye to your home. I naturally drop into a calm rhythm that keeps your environment peaceful and your pets completely relaxed. I’d love the opportunity to give your pets that same level of deep attention and care while you’re away! I currently work full time Monday- Friday from 8am - 4:30pm. I’d be happy to check on your fur babies after I get off of work. I work from home about 2-3 days per week as well! I am willing to sit with your cat or dog while I work some days if you ever needed. When it comes to caring for pets, safety and trust are always my top priorities. At home, I’m very intentional about creating a calm, comfortable, and secure environment for my own cats. I keep a close eye on them, pay attention to their routines and surroundings, and make sure they have a safe space where they can relax and be themselves. I’m also very mindful of doors, windows, food, household hazards, and anything else that could potentially put a pet at risk. Most importantly, I respect each animal’s individual boundaries and never force interaction when they’re uncomfortable. I’ll bring that same level of attentiveness and care to your pets—following your instructions, maintaining their normal routines as closely as possible, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is not only being watched, but genuinely looked after.

About: I’m a caring, attentive pet sitter who treats every animal like they’re my own!

About: I love all kinds of dogs and their playfull nature!I normally walk for 30 minutes or more on a regular so if your dog needs a nice walk in definitely built for it! I have access to someone that has experience dog grooming so if your dog needs a good wash I can provide that as well. I'm pretty open to request so if you need something all you have to do is ask and we can work something out. If your dog likes attention I have kids that love dogs that will help wear out any high energy dogs and I don't mind going to some open fields and having the open run around till their hearts content. I would love to create some regular customers but if you only want to try me out I'm more then ok with that!

FAQs for Pet Sitting - Forreston

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of November 2026, there are 1,567 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Forreston. 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Forreston. On Rover:

  • 87% 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 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.
