“Our dog was very happy having Josephine take care of her. It was the first time we had someone come to the house for more than 1-2 days. Our home was exactly how we left and our pup was content. Will book Josephine again!”
“We had a great experience with our pet sitter, Caroline! Communication was excellent throughout the entire time, and she went above and beyond the basic responsibilities to make sure everything was taken care of. Even on days when the cats stayed hidden, she still provided thoughtful and detailed updates, which gave us real peace of mind. We would absolutely recommend her to others and will definitely be booking with her again!”
About: I’ve always had pets of my own and love to give them the best care of their needs, whether it’s love & affection to mental or physical stimulation, I’m ready to enjoy the day with them, Your pup will have so much fun with my dog (Oreo) & I. We hike daily and if your pup is active, they are more than welcome to join us on any hikes that we do! Or if they just like simple short walks that’s great too! I work part time and my schedule is pretty flexible, as long as I know ahead of time, we can work out a schedule that works out! I have a fenced in yard for bathroom breaks or for play time. If your dog is crate trained during the night and you wish to continue, I have medium size crate but you are welcome to drop off their own crate with them, if they like to rest in their own crate, otherwise they are free to roam around the house and rest anywhere! Does your dog have any allergies to food/other things? or is reactive with another dog, or around food? • please let me know in advance so I can take precautions. I love updates of what my pup is doing throughout the day, when I’m not with her, so if you love getting updates of pictures of your pup throughout the day or at the end of the day just let me know!
“Theresa was absolutely wonderful with my cat. She followed all care instructions perfectly and also sent daily photos and updates. Theresa must be a natural with animals, because my cat would have been hiding if she felt at all afraid. Not only was my cat not hiding, but she was right beside Theresa in photos and clearly happy with all the attention and love she was getting! I hope to hire Theresa again in the future if I ever need to be away from home.”
About: Plenty of love to go around in my home, so plenty of space for snuggles and friends. All sizes and ages welcome, cats and dogs! I am a retired veteran, SAHM, so plenty of time/space. My home is well equipped for animals and rather large. The cat we own also stays in my room. No one will be assisting me with care. We have a fenced in backyard. Separated upstairs and downstairs, as well as gates for important areas. We also have a car AND truck for transport.
“Gaily was incredible! She gave Molly and Kimchi so much love and even left them goodie bags. I cannot express how grateful I am for her. Thank you so much Hailey I look forward to booking with you again.”
“Lily is great with my girls! Great communication, and she even did a mini photo shoot with them for Christmas which was so sweet. You can tell she really cares about the pets she watches. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Hayley was an excellent sitter for drop in visits. She thoroughly spoiled our senior dog with affection and treats, and was able to help with her eye drops and special hygiene needs. Hayley makes you feel reassured your pet is in good hands with many photos!”
About: I’ve had pets my whole life from big to small. Friends and family would trust me to care for their pets whenever needed. I have pets of my own so I’m experienced from the puppy stage to whenever needing extra care. I’m currently available weekdays and weekends whenever needed. I am available for pet walking and walk-in visits only. My time and attention will be solely towards providing care for your pets. I am currently not offering boarding or pet care in my own home.

About: As a professional hypnotherapist specializing in emotional trauma, I bring a calm, empathetic presence to pet care. Combined with my nannying background and experience raising three dogs from puppy (2 Bullterriers & 1 Staffordshire mix) and currently caring for my recently adopted 1.5 year old female doberman, I create a balanced environment perfect for soothing anxious pets, and caring for dogs of all ages I am currently building my business and have plenty of flexible home office time, so there is lots of time and opportunity to go for walks and play time. Our home is roomy & secure and I can fit a small to medium crate if needed. We have lots of walkways and I love to go take dog for beach walks or easy hikes when I can
“Jen (and her husband Patrick) were amazing! She was so attentive and loving to my little man. Not only did they care for him, but I can tell they loved him as if he was their own. They updated me with every visit and made sure he was happy and healthy. Thank you again Jen! You and Patrick were truly the best sitters I have ever had ?”
“Brandi is great! She is very communicative and is always on time. My two pups absolutely love her! She brightens their day when she comes over to give them a potty break during our long work hours. Our older dog has some health problems and she gives him his mid-day mediation. Their quality of life is so much better now that she’s a part of it!”
“This was my first time ever having to use a sitter for my boys and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! My boys were so well taken care of and she managed to get Salem to come out of his shell, he has never been this comfortable with anyone outside of the family before so I will definitely be requesting her services again whenever we need to and she’s available!”
“Veronica is definitely an animal person. She immediately bonded with our cat and was so patient during her visit as we had just moved in and we’re learning all the building access issues. Total pro! Thanks, Veronica. 😺”
About: I have grown up with big dogs since I could remember. I always had at least two fur babies growing up. I now have a Doberman so I can say I can keep up with high energy dogos haha. I am currently a teacher on summer break. I would like to make some extra cash and take my doggo on adventures to do some work with me. I love to pay attention to detail as I can understand how our pups are like our children. I will love and care for your pup like my own

I cannot thank Jamie enough for taking care of my baby, Rhombus, while I was on a long trip. My friends have always come to check on her and say they never see her but Jamie got Rhombus to warm up to her on day 1! I’m super impressed and will definitely book her again!
Kristina has helped take care of my senior cat twice and has been great both times! She was available even on short notice the second time. I have a hard time leaving my cat and worry a lot, but Kristina’s photos and updates during each visit make me feel much better. Very communicative throughout as well. I know my kitty is in good hands as her knowledge and care for animals is evident - she was even able to administer my cat’s medications while we were gone. I am so happy to have found someone I can trust and would recommend Kristina to anyone looking for care!
Tamah went above and beyond for our cats. One of our pets was put on emergency antibiotics days before our trip was scheduled. Tamah did an amazing job making sure she was given her medicine daily and sent us lots of updates. I would absolutely have her back! 10/10!
I feel really lucky to have found Derrica. She was so flexible and easy to work with, which made everything feel a lot less stressful from the start. What meant the most to me was how genuinely caring she is. You can just tell she really loves the animals she’s watching. She kept me updated with the best pictures, which I genuinely looked forward to, and she was always quick to reach out if anything came up. That kind of communication made such a difference and gave me real peace of mind. And honestly, Virgo loving her said everything. It was clear she felt comfortable and happy with her, which means the world to me. I’m so grateful to have found someone so reliable, kind, and attentive. I would absolutely trust Derrica again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will truly care for their pet.
Taylor was so amazing with our boys! They welcomed her from the get-go, including our shy boy. I didn't have to worry at all. She provided pics for updates, which was a plus! She went above and beyond for what I expected. I would have her pet-sit in a heartbeat again. 🤗 thank you so much, Taylor. 😄
Brandi is great! She is very communicative and is always on time. My two pups absolutely love her! She brightens their day when she comes over to give them a potty break during our long work hours. Our older dog has some health problems and she gives him his mid-day mediation. Their quality of life is so much better now that she’s a part of it!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of Boba and for making sure she got her medicine. I know she definitely didn’t make it easy, so I really appreciate your patience, kindness, and dedication. It means a lot to know she was in good hands. Thank you again!
He is absolutely awesome! This was my first time hiring a pet sitter while I was away, and he went above and beyond from the very beginning. He stopped by the day before my trip so we could go over everything in person, which immediately made me feel comfortable and reassured. During my trip, he kept me updated with photos and detailed messages, which I truly appreciated. He even took the initiative to replace the battery in my smoke detector when it started making a loud noise and caused my cats to hide under the bed ... That level of care really meant a lot to me. My cats were clearly very comfortable with him and seemed happy and relaxed the entire time. If I ever need a pet sitter again, I will definitely be asking him for help. Highly recommend!
Jazmin was amazing with our 10-year old large poodle who was very shy at first. Jazmin did so well helping our pup overcome her shyness. She took her on long walks and gave her a lot of cuddles. Our pup looked so happy in all the pictures Jazmin sent us. We were so grateful to have Jazmin take care of our sweet girl. We also appreciated all the detailed descriptions Jazmin shared every day. We felt our pup was very well taken care of which gave us a peace of mind. I had bad experience on Rover before so I am super grateful to have found Jazmin. You can tell she loves animals and they love her.

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 1,471 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fort Shafter. 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 Fort Shafter 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.

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.
